Shi Liemen looked at the smug Yuan Tiandi in front of him, and said helplessly.

"Your Majesty, the guilty minister has fully understood. There have been many rebellious things before. If you can spare my life, I will let you do whatever you want."

Yuan Tiandi had a cold expression on his face, looking at Shi Liemen, his heart was full of contempt.

"Why are you so polite all of a sudden? I remember that you didn't seem to let me off in front of the Emperor Yuan Mo. You just slandered me when you had nothing to do."

At this time, if you want to find a bad debt, even if you want to tear down the lost door, I am afraid it is reasonable.

In any case, the current Yuantian Emperor is no longer the former Xu Guogong.

The Lost Martial Gate also knows that in 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, things have developed to this point, and they have long since lost their place to speak.

"Your Majesty, I have already fully realized my mistake today. If you can take pity on me and spare my old life, I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life."

Speaking of this, Shi Liemen's legs were trembling, he was really afraid that he would be executed by Yuan Tiandi who was in a rage.

He had already knelt down and kowtowed one after another until his head was covered in blood.

"It's still useful for you to keep the minister. Does Your Majesty really want to execute the minister?"

Yuan Tiandi looked at him with a smile and said.

"I wanted your life before, but now I have changed my mind, not only to save your life, but also to make you an official, you continue to be my prime minister."

All of a sudden, the Shi Lie Sect was completely stunned, even if he left his life to be a commoner, he would already be thankful.

I didn't expect to be able to continue to be an official, or to be a high-ranking official like the prime minister. Wouldn't this be a joke with myself?
He hurriedly asked with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty is not joking with the minister. If this is the case, even if the minister is close to death, it will be difficult to repay His Majesty's great kindness and kindness."

Yuan Tiandi also looked at him with a playful expression and said.

"I am the Son of Heaven, so the Son of Heaven speaks his words, and of course he won't make any jokes with you. Since the words are said, they must count."

Although I felt sick in my heart, this villain who killed the king and usurped the throne had just assumed the throne of God, and he regarded himself as the Son of Heaven.

But no matter what, now that the handle of the knife is in his hands, his life is naturally in his hands, so Li Miao cannot be dissatisfied.

At this time, since he can retain his official title and continue to live, he naturally has to express himself well.

Shi Liemen looked at Yuan Tiandi solemnly and said.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, since you can let me continue to be an official, I will definitely change my past mistakes. Those things in the past will never happen again, and I will be a good and honest official."

Unexpectedly, after hearing his confession, Yuan Tiandi was indeed a little annoyed, and asked with staring eyes.

"When did I say that I asked you to be a good and honest official? If you really want to be a good official, what's the use of keeping your life?"

This question directly made Shi Liemen even more confused. What is going on?Could it be that Yuan Tiandi left his own life because he wanted to use himself as a tool to make money.

If you think about it carefully, this is indeed the only possibility that makes sense.

But in any case, as long as he can save his life, he is lucky, and he can't ask for anything more.

Therefore, Shi Liemen stepped forward again with a flattering face, and said to Yuan Tiandi.

"Your Majesty, taking advantage of these years, you can be considered to have accumulated some property, and you are willing to dedicate all of it to Your Majesty. There are a total of 100 million taels..."

In fact, when he said this, he had already almost gritted his teeth. After so many years of corrupt official career, his total accumulated wealth is only so much.

To be honest, he had already made the greatest determination to get all these out, but seeing Emperor Yuan Tian's expression, he seemed dissatisfied with this.

So, he asked tentatively helplessly.

"Your Majesty, there is only so much of my family property. Could it be that Your Majesty is dissatisfied?"

Yuan Tiandi laughed, looked at him and said.

"Do you think you can get rid of me with 100 million taels? You treat me like a beggar, that's not okay."

Shi Liemen was very helpless, he had already lost his fortune, what else could he want to do to himself, so he gritted his teeth and said.

"If His Majesty is really able to forgive the minister, then I am willing to add another one million taels. This is already the limit that I and the tribe can come up with."

In fact, he did not lie. This is the simplest thing. The grassland has long since lost its former glory, and now the total annual offerings are only about one million taels.

Besides, in his current situation, if he wants to borrow some money from other ministers, no one will lend him at all.

So if he wanted to collect enough money, he could only start in his own tribe, because those tribesmen were bound to him, and they would not refuse to give him money.

But 200 million taels of silver, that's enough to offend his family and make him lose more than he gains. This can be regarded as an act of drinking poison to quench thirst.

But for the number he Youya uttered, Emperor Yuan Tian's expression didn't change at all.

Emperor Yuan Tian seemed to have a sneer all over his face, and said.

"Is your life really only worth two million taels of silver? Or, do you think your life can be bought with two million taels of silver?"

The lost spirit who had just regained his spirits was immediately paralyzed by fright, and he quickly kowtowed and asked.

"Then please tell your majesty how much silver should I have to redeem my sins and buy my life?"

Emperor Yuan Tian seemed to have been waiting for him to ask this question, so he couldn't wait to give the answer.

"You don't have to ask any more. I'll just give you a reserve price and tell you clearly that 1000 million taels will make me completely forgive you."

At this moment, Shi Liemen simply didn't know what to say, this is really a big mouth for a lion.

Even if the Ming Dynasty is so prosperous now, the annual income is only 6000 million taels, and in the most prosperous period of the Great Yuan Dynasty, the annual income is only 8000 million taels.

Now, the Yuan Dynasty has been forced to retreat to such a small place as Fishing Erhai. Even if it is to suck the marrow, it is afraid that it will not be able to get so much money.

At this time, the Lost Martial Gate had completely fallen into despair, and once again kowtowed and bled, he said helplessly.

"Even if Your Majesty cuts me into pieces, I still won't be able to get so much money. This is the greatest truth. Please learn from me."

Unexpectedly, Yuan Tiandi looked at him with a smile and said playfully.

"I didn't tell you to take out so much money all at once. You pay 200 million taels first, and the remaining 800 million taels only need you to finish it within three years. That's not a problem, right?"
