The Villain Just Wants To Make Money

Gong Ziyan was awakened by a sharp pain.

Although he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, he doesn't have much actual combat experience after all. This is the first time for such a serious injury. What's more, he has lost his martial arts now. In an instant, his eyes began to sweat madly, and a suppressed groan sounded in his throat, the pain was unbearable.

At this time, the voice of the imperial doctor sounded, as if he was reporting to someone: "Your Majesty, the young master's injury has been properly bandaged, but although the bleeding has stopped, it is a penetrating injury, so you still need to be careful. In addition, the injury on the son's meridian has not healed, and the recovery of this penetrating injury may also be affected."

Xie Gu said: "I know, how long will it take for him to recover?"

The imperial doctor hesitated: "If we look at the current situation, it will take half a year to recover. Even if it is just to get up and walk around, I am afraid it will take about a month."

Xie Gu seemed a little dissatisfied: "How long does it take?"

After thinking about it for a while, the imperial doctor replied, "If you use the holy medicine for healing, or a supplement worth the thousand-year-old ginseng, you should be able to halve the recovery time."

Xie Gu said: "So expensive? Forget it, let him fend for himself."

Gong Ziyan almost vomited out a mouthful of blood.

Then he thanked his bones and said, "However, during this period of time, I have been serving people for a long time. Make sure that he can act freely as soon as possible!"

The imperial physician quickly said respectfully: "Yes, I should do my best."

"Well," Xie Gu's tone was slightly satisfied, "you watch here first, I will go to the first trial of the assassin."

In the sound of "Send Your Majesty", Gong Ziyan finally opened his eyes.

The night outside the window was cold, but the lights in the hall were bright, and there were people beside him, but unfortunately they were all kneeling in the direction of the hall door at the moment, and the emperor they were kneeling and escorting had stepped out of the hall without looking back. Only a piece of clothing flashed through the door, leaving no trace.

Watching Xie Gu leave without giving himself a chance to speak and guide, Gong Ziyan finally realized that many things seemed to have changed, and everything was no longer under his complete control.

Xie Gu left the Jianjia Palace, turned around and went back to his bedroom.

Because Eunuch Hai hit the dragon's bed and is still recuperating, and Xiao Qianzi is waiting by Gongziyan's side, so Xie Gu specially selected two eunuchs to serve them personally, and they both changed their names, one is called Yuanbao and the other is called Facai - although I heard It looks like the name of a dog, but after all, it is the **** before the imperial eunuch, and the original body is famous before, so the two of them can only happily accept it.

Yuan Bao did not follow Xie Gu to Jianjia Temple—the riot caused by the banquet before was calmed down with great difficulty, and the assassination had already happened. Naturally, the banquet could not continue. The actors and ministers are still unable to leave, and they need to be checked one by one.

In fact, according to the original body's previous habits, I am afraid that none of these people will survive, even if they have nothing to do with assassins, but the emperor is angry, and it is normal for dozens or hundreds of people to die.

Of course, Xie Gu didn't have the habit of killing people indiscriminately as soon as he came up, so he just detained everyone for the time being, and asked the guards to come and search them one by one. Gongziyan who was sent for emergency treatment.

However, the banquet hall also had to be presided over, so Yuan Bao and An Yi were left at the scene, while the remaining dark guards and Fa Cai left with Xie Gu.

At this time, Xie Gu went to the direction of the palace, and Fa Cai immediately asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, that assassin...?"

It stands to reason that if the assassin is caught, shouldn't he be immediately put into the Tianjing prison? Why did His Majesty go directly to the bedroom?

Xie Gu said: "It's inconvenient for the prison to be in the sky, so I have someone bring the assassin to my bedroom."

He grinned: "If you dare to destroy my thousand-year-old huanghuali wooden table with one sword, you have to be prepared to be cramped and peeled!"

Getting rich always feels that something is wrong, shouldn't it be because he is angry that the other party hurt Gongziyan? Why does it seem that the wooden table has been split with a crack and seems to make His Majesty even more angry?

But he still quickly shared his hatred and said: "This assassin is really a heinous crime and should indeed be sentenced to capital punishment!"

Xie Gu glanced at Fa Cai and said, "The death penalty is not enough. You don't have to follow me to the inner room later. I will interrogate this assassin alone."

"Yes." Fa Cai nodded and replied, without doubts in his heart.

After entering the inner room, An Er was already waiting inside.

When he saw Xie Gu come in, he immediately knelt down and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, the identity of the assassin has been identified, and he is a former guest of the criminal minister Nie Ming. We took out the poison from his mouth before he committed suicide, and then He just died, and we have also selected a prisoner with a similar stature to him, who has been brought over from the prison, and we can send him back after dawn."

Xie Gu nodded: "Well, remember to take good care of this person, the assassin's body was quietly disposed of, and no one should let others know that he was dead."

An Er nodded and said yes, and then exited the inner room.

After An Er went out, Xie Gu read the book for a while and sorted out the current situation.

He already knew that the assassin was the one arranged by Gongziyan, and Xie Gu secretly shot the assassin Oolong stabbed Gongziyan, but the other party is a master, and it was normal that he didn't find something wrong when he was nervous before, but when he regained his composure After that, he would definitely realize the problem, so the dark guard immediately ordered the person to be killed after taking down the opponent.

As for why take out the poison hidden in the crevices of the teeth? Only in this way will Gongziyan not suspect that the assassin is still alive.

Gong Ziyan carefully arranged this rescue, and it did win the original body's trust to a considerable extent in the original trajectory, but this client itself is a great flaw, as long as it is kept, it will become a stalk in Gong Ziyan's heart. The thorn threatens him all the time. When a person is worried and afraid, it is inevitable that he will show his feet, so Xie Gu will not announce that the assassin is dead.

He would only say that the assassin wanted to commit suicide but was stopped, and is now locked up in prison to receive the most brutal punishment until the truth of the assassination is revealed.

Of course, Xie Gu didn't expect this move to kill Gong Ziyan, but he could always add some block to the opponent. He had already checked the progress of the face slap, and there was no change so far. There must be some deviation. It has to be considered in the long run.

However, while paying attention to opponents strategically, Xie Gu still pays more attention to the issue of making money.

After all, the emperor, the original body, seems to be acting recklessly, but it is really inappropriate to be so poor.

There is also the huanghuali wood table that was accidentally cracked. You must know that the most important thing about these treasures is the integrity. This table seems to be cracked, but the value is more than half cut! If it wasn't for the fact that he knew that he couldn't squeeze any money out of the assassin, Xie Gu would definitely make the other party look clean!

But the assassin was under the command of Gongziyan, and it is also very appropriate to extract money from Gongziyan!

He got up and went to the bath to take a bath, thinking about the situation again in his mind.

From the second day onwards, there were new orders in the palace.

To this end, Xie Gu also issued a special decree. The general idea is to say that he has fought for many years and is extremely extravagant. He should not enjoy it like this. He is ashamed of his ancestors. Save some money!

So he laid off staff directly in the palace.

That is to say, a large number of palace maids and eunuchs in the palace will be dismissed from the palace, and the royal family will no longer bear their expenses. In addition, the daily duties of Xie Gu himself and the concubines have been reduced, and the concubines are not involved in political affairs. There are children" and "no merit to the family, the country, the society and the grain", so the reduction of the proportion is ruthless, not much better than that of a first-class palace maid.

What's more, Xie Gu also hinted at the end of the imperial decree, saying that this method is still being implemented on a trial basis in the palace, and when the time is ripe, it will be promoted in the future.

This made the whole country tremble.

The first is the palace maids and eunuchs. The palace maids are a little bit better, and many of them are women with clean backgrounds or even an official background. Even if they are a little older, they are not worried about getting married. But what about the eunuchs? Their special physical condition makes it impossible for them to have children at all! Many market jobs are not for them, so it's not easy to survive.

The second is the case of concubines. Although it is said that there are not many concubines in the palace, and they have never been favored, how can someone who can stand in the palace under such circumstances have no background? Most of them were pampered eldest young ladies when they were in the boudoir.

The third is the hint of Xie Gu - now it is piloted in the palace, will it be promoted in the future? Thinking about it with my knees, I know where he wants to promote it. This is to promote it to the courtiers!

So for a time the courtiers were desperately opposed.

But Xie Gu didn't want to do this blindly, he had already made plans for these three points.

First, for the palace maids and eunuchs, it is actually just a severance on the surface. For those who have the strength to take back their daughters and want to be free, Xie Gu naturally put everyone back, which is considered to increase some prestige and fidelity.

But for those who don't want to go home or can't stand on their own, this group of people is only dismissed on the surface, but in fact, they have already been sent to various places in secret in batches, from the palace servants on the bright side to his secret forces, After training, he returned to the private sector, on the one hand to collect intelligence, and on the other to manage private property for him.

After all, Xie Gu’s layoffs mainly only reduced the expenditure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there was no obvious help for the income of his private treasury, so he simply took most of the private treasury funds and sold dozens of large and small accounts across the country under different names. Hundreds of shops are handed over to these people, which not only solves their employment problem, but also makes money themselves.

Second, those concubines are also very easy to handle. They are not close to women, so there are very few concubines in the harem. Because there is no problem of favoritism, everyone is still friendly, and there is no intrigue. Was sealed as a concubine.

Although it seems that everyone is quite dissatisfied with the issue of the reduction of share ratios, this is not a threat to survival, so at this time, as long as a common contradiction is created for the queens, they can naturally divert their attention.

What do the concubines care about? Of course it is the emperor's favor!

Yuan was able to defy all opinions, and Gongziyan was pushed to the position of noble concubine as a man, and there was no queen in the palace, so Gongziyan was now the highest ranking person. Who the concubines would care about the issue of the case? The first priority is to pull this son Yan from his horse first!

It was hard for the son himself, obviously he had no feeling for Xie Gu, he was still in bed, and he was the one who was deducted the most money, but he still became a thorn in the eyes of other concubines. Now, the most important thing is to prevent the concubines from attacking.

Finally, about these ministers.

In fact, most of them are just taking precautions. After all, Xie Gu said that it will be promoted later, but who knows how far behind it will be? At present, only a small number of opponents are worried about the concubine and palace people, and a large number of them can basically be defined as fighting for their own future interests.

Therefore, the first part of the two groups is concerned about the country and the people, while the latter part is that they are full and have nothing to do. The solution is also very simple. Just find something to do for them.

And now there is a very important matter.

Next month, many envoys from the affiliated countries will go to Nanluo together to meet the emperor.

After the Beiling Kingdom was destroyed, Nanluo dominated, and many of Beiling's affiliated countries had converted to Nanluo, so this time the number of envoys was very large, and the task of receiving them was also very arduous. In addition, it is worth mentioning that a small country seized Here comes the fugitive princess of Beiling, who wants to dedicate it to Nanluo.
