The brothers and sisters of the Mu family arrived at the Yong Imperial City before Langya.

After receiving the news, Yan Qing said calmly: "They are a few days slower than I expected."

"But we need to make some preparations."

"What preparations are you making?"

"The Mu family is coming with great force this time." Wen Jin smiled and handed Yan Qing a memorial, "And the formation is extremely vast."

"Is it coming fiercely?" Yan Qing raised her eyes and glanced at him, then opened the memorial to review, "What's the explanation?"

Wen Jin said: "The brothers and sisters of the Zhimu family are here, and they have also brought with them a number of guards and dead soldiers."

Yan Qing's heart moved slightly, thinking of discussing with Wen Jin in Zhuque City about the dead members of the Mu family, "Are all the Mu family brothers here?"

"No." Wen Jin shook his head, "Here come the eldest brother Mu Dongming, the younger brother Mu Donghua, and their younger sister Mu Dongli."

"The formation is so powerful, and they also brought a group of dead soldiers..." Yan Qing thought for a moment, smiled faintly, and obviously guessed the reason, "How much silver are they planning to donate?"

"As expected of you, Your Majesty, you guessed the truth right away."

Yan Qing sneered: "They brought such a group of dead soldiers and guards, but they must be to assassinate me, right?"

"It is said to be one million taels of silver." Wen Jin said in a soft voice, "This one million taels of silver is just a gift to celebrate His Majesty's accession to the throne. In another month, the Mu family's tax money should also be paid to the national treasury. Okay, it will be another huge amount of income when the time comes.”

When the Mu family brothers and sisters come to Beijing to pay homage to His Majesty, they always bring a wad of silver notes. It takes time to prepare, and even if the Mu family is extremely wealthy, they can still store it at home. So much cash requires enough time to manage.

There was a lot of money, so the road was inevitably conspicuous, and it was easy to be spotted by thieves. We needed to arrange enough people to escort us, so we arrived a few days late.

Yan Qing put down the ink pen in his hand, "These two royal families are living in peace and prosperity, and the national treasury is also abundant. I will arrange for more reliable people to keep an eye on the tax this autumn. I want to see that little tax money being embezzled by corrupt officials. It enriches their own pockets.”

"Your Majesty, don't worry."

"Taxes are collected from the people and used for the people." Yan Qing mused, "In addition to setting aside a part for military pay and military equipment supplies, we should pay more attention to the autumn harvest situation in various places today, and we must ensure that the people have surplus food in their hands to prevent Rain and snow in autumn and winter lead to famine.”

"yes."

"The Mu brothers and sisters are still outside the city gate?"

"Yes." Wen Jin nodded, "Without His Majesty's decree, they would just wait outside. No one would dare to let them in without permission."

Especially the mighty group of people, the formation was so large, but it alarmed the Imperial City Guards, and even the officials in the DPRK received the news.

Yan Qing raised his eyebrows: "You also make the decision?"

Wen Jin replied: "I can make the decision, but I dare not make the decision without permission."

Yan glanced at him tiltedly, Wen Jin looked calm and gentle, showing humility and calmness.

"Let Shen Mo bring someone over." Yan Qing quickly ordered, "Since we are bringing money here, we must treat him well."

Wen Jin nodded: "Every tax paid by merchants headed by the Mu family goes to the treasury. The premise is that they cheated and deceived the court."

"With you here, these are all issues I need to worry about."

Wen Jin was silent for a while, and his tone was particularly sincere: "It's a good thing that Your Majesty trusts me so much. I should be happy, but if you trust me too much, I will feel even more pressure."

Yan Qing raised her eyes and gave him a strange look.

Wen Jin bowed: "I will make arrangements right now."

Yan Qing stared at his leaving figure without saying anything, sighed softly, put down the ink pen, and leaned on the chair with a teacup to drink tea.

Being an emperor is actually very tiring, especially if you want to be a good emperor, it is even more tiring. Every day, you have to deal with government affairs and make approvals.

The world has a vast territory, and everything must be considered carefully. Corrupt officials must be dealt with, people's livelihood must be taken care of, the power of vassal kings needs to be curbed, and the deployment of border troops is even more important.

In just one month, she did more things than she had done in the past half year.

Yan Qing clicked her tongue, if she really wanted to live a long life and grow old together, she would have to covet the throne for too long, otherwise she and Wen Jin would both have a short life.
