Queen Of Medicine

Jing Yuan didn't know that at the next day's meeting, Jing Qi's opening was a great fire.

"Cao Jia, can you tell me how much money was raised for the flood in the three places of Puzhou that day?"

"Sir, the Treasury allocated 30000 yuan for flood control for the first time, and then 20000 yuan for disaster relief; Later, initiated by the Queen's mother, the inner palace raised a total of 3600 yuan, and the officials and nobles donated more than 9800 yuan, all for disaster relief. "

"How many people are there?" This remark surprised everyone.

"This..." Cao Gu gave a few words and said, "I don't want to cool the dynasty. There are more than 1900 officials above grade 9 in Beijing, 310 in Beijing and 169 officials above grade 5 in Beijing. Their relatives and family members do not know how many. "

"Three hundred and ten officials, relatives and family members, donated a total of 9800 yuan! But I saw with my own eyes last night that someone spent 300 yuan on a jade belt! " He's furious“ I don't know. I'm not a cool official. How rich is it? "

Only then did all the officials understand that where did the king's anger come from? He couldn't help but secretly hate his mother-in-law at home. What wealth did he show at the auction if he had nothing to do?!

The official whose mother-in-law bought the jade belt was facing up. When she heard that her family was named, she fell to the ground in a cold sweat. "I don't know that I Jing lost my family here yesterday, but she came back to tell me that she bought it with the dowry money brought by her mother's family. I have no reason to ask for a dowry from my Jing when I donate money, so I only donated the monthly salary of my lower official in January. "

The important Minister of the Manchu Dynasty breathed a sigh of relief. This explanation was passable. The king must have no words to argue. How can a husband's official donate money to his wife's dowry?

Jing Tai sneered, "in this way, could it be that I donated my monthly salary to the officials last month and could only live on my wife's dowry? It's really hard for you! "

The people below dare not say a word. The prince came out to save the scene. He also heard the princess say what happened yesterday. He knew that the jewelry bought by her Princess was filial to the empress dowager, and there was no pressure at all. "Sir, fortunately, the floods in the three places of Puzhou have been relieved, and the people have been able to settle and rebuild. I believe that if you have another chance in the future, you will live up to your high expectations."

All the people knelt down and said in unison, "you must live up to your high expectations."

"Hum!" Jing Tai snorted, which can be regarded as exposing the matter.

Gongsun Li quickly stepped out of the line and changed the topic. "I'm sorry, Yu Po in the southwest sent an urgent report. Zisang state in the South has frequently harassed Wucheng recently, which seems to have changed. Yu Po led 100000 soldiers to guard the border. For five years, Zisang state has been in peace with our border city. I'm afraid this action may be covered up. I don't know what it really wants? "

Cao Gu sneered, "hundreds of thousands of soldiers are waiting for the whole war. I'm sorry that Zisang small country doesn't dare to act rashly. Kuang Zisang is a small country whose ancestors share the same surname as our royal family and have been friendly to each other for decades. If war is like fighting in a room, isn't it unjust? "

Gongsun Li: "this moment is also another moment. Can we talk about military affairs? Yu Po just noticed that there were differences and reported them according to the rules. We should study them carefully. It's best to have nothing in the southwest, but if there is a sudden military situation, I'm afraid I'm not prepared properly. " If the garrison general does not report, he will be charged with failing to report in case the war is triggered.

All the ministers were silent.

Jing Jie asked Jing Yuan, who was silent, "six younger brothers, Zisang country is closest to your fief Liangzhou and harasses your sergeant. Have you received any news before?"

Jing Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has not returned to the fief for five years. Five years ago, he was ordered to have no private trust in the minister. All military affairs should be reported to the king for handling. Ministers dare not intrude on behalf of blisters. Liangzhou ordered Qi Peng to report the tax and tax on the official administration every year, and copy it with the minister. What the minister knows is no different from you. "

Xichi came forward and said, "Mr. Wang, speaking of Zisang, I heard an interesting story about Zisang in the market restaurant the day before yesterday. I don't know if it should be said or not?"

Discussing the military situation is too serious. Everyone looks forward to looking at him.

Jing Tai said, "whenever there is anything about Zisang country, Qing people can speak freely."

Old Xichi blushed and said, "the day before yesterday, the minister had a quarrel with his old wife. He went to the wine shop to drink muggy wine. I heard an interesting story from a business trip to the southwest about 16 years ago. There was a maid in the palace of Jing, the leader of Zisang state, who was pregnant without a husband 40 years ago. She was confined in the palace until she was pregnant for more than 40 years. If an old woman is frightened, she will repay the queen; The queen Jiang's thought was unknown, so she refused to accept it and abandoned it in the ditch river. Jing Li is very angry. He is sending people around to look for the baby girl. He wants to see people alive and dead. Some people get and offer 300 pieces of cloth and silk each. Some people who don't report their adoption and are exposed by their neighbors have their whole family beheaded. "

Gongsun rich said, "how can newborns be identified? If someone takes a dead baby at will to cheat reward, isn't it easy? "

"I heard that this woman was born with Phoenix Color between her eyebrows. The pattern has been painted by the old woman of more than 50 that year. Wait for comparison. How dare anyone pretend to be a fool?"

Xichi continued, "sixteen years from the king's search for people have yielded no results. Last month, someone saw a stunning beauty on the Bank of Sishui river. A phoenix color on the forehead was extremely beautiful, which provoked Wang to send people to search everywhere. "

Gongsun Li said, "Sishui is crossing the territory of Zisang and Liangzhou. Is it the matter that Yupo said about the change of Zisang?"

Xichi said, "it's too strange. It's common to hear about the humanity of business travel. Just listen to it for the time being. It can't be done accurately. But there are changes in the military and state affairs, so we have to guard against them. "

Le Ke said, "Xichi SIKO is right. The minister is in charge of military clothes and equipment. The southwest side has been rationing military supplies according to the regulations five years ago. Now, Sergeant Wuliang can develop refined iron to make weapons. How do you know Zisang has no new weapons? I think it's impossible to guard against it. We should be cautious. Moreover, all the refined iron weapons previously raised are transported to the northwest. If each garrison military region can be properly deployed, the border defense capacity can be greatly improved. "

He Qian, who is now in charge of mine smelting and the identification and employment of craftsmen, said, "now, judging from the output of 300 people working day and night in cangcuishan mine, only 5000 arrows, 3000 halberds, 3000 Maotou and 500 horizontal knives can be produced every month. This is the limit of mine operation. It will take at least a year to equip 100000 troops. "

Jingtui said, "he Qian, since neifu has mastered the smelting technology, why not open more mines and build more smelting plants? Previously, I heard that baikou iron mine is rich in output, and there are also a large number of baikou iron ore in several copper mines previously mined. "

He Qian said with a wry smile, "Weichen has long been smelted in the previously mined Caixian and Daqing mines. Somehow, he just can't create fine iron with the same hardness."

No one answered at the moment.

It's better to go to Guang'an for a long time than to go to Guang'an for a long time. He understands that it's better to go to Guang'an for a long time. As for refined iron, the Marquis of Guang'an can look for mines in and around Liangzhou city. If there are minerals, he can build a factory to forge weapons locally, which will be supervised by the internal government, and there will be no long-distance transportation time. Guang'an Hou, would you like to? "

Guang'an Hou hesitated and said, "minister, lead the purpose."

The prince replied with an arch hand, "father, it's very appropriate for the Marquis of Guang'an to return to the fief and sit in Liangzhou. Jing Hua has never been involved in military affairs. It would also be a kind of experience if she could study in detail with her sixth uncle. "

Jing Ti nodded when he heard the speech. "What the prince said is very true. Let Hua'er go to Liangzhou together. At this time, it has been closed in recent years. After Shangyuan Festival, you can start. "

Jing Yuan had to promise.

At the end of the meeting, the prince was left alone. No one knew what the father and son had talked about. No one knows that when the prince goes out, he is extremely confused.

Soon after Jing Yuan returned to the mansion, he saw Zhuo Xi appear in linyue pavilion with a serious black eye.

Jing Yuan's heart jumped for a moment, and the opportunity of the night may be coming.

He pressed down his excitement and asked coldly, "what's the matter with your eyes?"

Zi Ran frowned. Who can't hear such an obvious tone of disaster and joy? The question is, what are you happy about, girl with dark circles under her eyes?

Sure enough, Zhuo Xi said unhappily, "thank you for your concern. Last night, the sales volume of Jinyuman building was too large. I was too excited to sleep on the gold. "

Zi Ran stumbled. When she came back these days, she saw her mysteriously busy going in and out. The Marquis didn't ask. He was embarrassed to ask directly, but indirectly learned from Xianglan about the preparation of Jinyuman building and the preparation of last night's auction. Sure enough, if you don't sing, you will become a blockbuster. Thinking of the auction last night, he immediately talked about it, "Miss Zhuo Xi, the auction last night was wonderful."

Zhuo Xi immediately raised her apricot eyebrows, "what?! Did you go too? I told you not to get involved? "

Zi Ran touched his nose and looked at the master. The latter obviously wanted him to carry the black pot. His heart was horizontal. "I heard that the security guard there was short of staff, so I begged him to take me."

Zhuo Xi sneered, "even if you are short of hands, how many adults can you hold?"

Zi Ran refused, "fortunately, we went last night. You don't know, at least three groups, a total of no less than 60 people in black attacked your field. Don't you know? "

"Really?" Zhuo Xi was surprised and looked at Jing Yuan, "coming for you?"

Jing Yuan's excitement was cold, and his tone became cool, "is it for you? You, a little Marquis, deserve to send more than 60 dead men? "

Zhuo Xi found that he was very wrong today. After thinking about it, she didn't seem to have done anything wrong recently. She pondered, "I don't seem to have exposed my identity. How did the other party come to you?"

"How many eyes are there inside and outside the Hou's house. Is such a big thing really unnoticed? The construction of Jinyuman building lasted one month and three days. How did the craftsmen in the house take turns to build it, and how did the materials be transported in and out of Fengming building? In addition, all the gold and silver you extracted from the warehouse are stamped with the official seal of the marquis. The alchemy workshop you sent to is the Queen's property. One by one, you can find out by any spy. Besides, when you served tea to the empress dowager, the king and the queen, you deliberately used the set of white jade lanterns. Isn't it to show your relationship with Ben Hou? "

Zhuo Xi smiled and replaced his cold tea with a new one. Jing Yuan pressed her hand and said to Zi Ran, "Zi Ran, the tea is cold. Go and cook a new pot." Zi Ran knew that they had something to say, and Wen Yan stepped down.

Jing Yuan sighed, "I want to hide you behind me, but I don't know how a pearl can be cast secretly? Now the gate of the palace is open to you. Come on, what do you want? "

Zhuo Xi saw that he was rarely sad and had a look of thin anger. His heart missed a beat, but he still said clearly, "what I want has not changed. What I want is freedom."

Jing Yuan sneered, "freedom without the command of parents and the pressure of kingship? You have no father or mother, but you are willing to be the sixth miss of the Wu house; You could have been far from the throne, but you were willing to run to the palace gate. This is what you call freedom? "

Zhuo Xi hesitated, "the name Wu AI just provides me with a legal identity so that I won't die under the sword. Close to the throne, I just want to get a legal merchant identity. "

"Can't I give you a legal merchant identity?" Jing Yuan felt his heart cooling slowly.
