Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 161 2 taels of silver

However, who is Master Chen Xian?

He is someone who dares to fool even the empress on the throne.

Now that the empress just has a wrong attitude, Chen Xianshi naturally won't take it to heart.

The one who retreated into advance said: "It seems that Pindao has embarrassed Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't worry too much, Pindao believes that God will appreciate the kindness of the pen, and will make Pindao's journey smooth and smooth, and get it back for Your Majesty." Medicinal materials can help His Majesty live forever."

When the empress heard the immortality behind this, her heart moved.

Yes, how can I lose my sense of proportion for the little money in front of me.

She has spent so long and so much energy in order to live forever, and now she only needs two herbs, how can she hesitate at the moment before she is about to succeed.

Besides, she doesn't only have this 1 taels of silver, there are still 3909 million taels in Chen Yi's mansion!
The empress seemed to have made up her mind, and a smile appeared on her face again.

"Thank you Master Chen for everything you have done for me. I will keep it in my heart. I don't know how much Master Chen needs."

Chen Xianshi bowed his head and thought for a while. In the court hall, there was 5000 taels from the Liao Kingdom recently, and some silver was also stored in the inner treasury. However, it seems that there is not much left for making weapons a few days ago.

Chen Xianshi knew that if he asked for too much, the Empress would not be able to get it out. If he asked for too little, he would still be at a disadvantage, so he needed to find a suitable middle value.

"Your Majesty! This thousand-year-old snow lotus is rare and hard to buy. I am worried that if I have less money, I will not be able to buy it when I meet it. This will delay your Majesty's affairs, so I want to get more. Bring it back, what does His Majesty think?"

After thinking about it, the empress also made the same reason.

After traveling thousands of miles, it turned out that he didn't bring enough money, which was embarrassing enough. Could it be possible to let Chen Xianshi come back and get the money before going.

The time wasted this time and again, but it was a major event to delay my immortality.

The empress nodded naturally, agreeing very much.

"Your Majesty! Pindao wants to receive 2 taels." Chen Xianshi estimated in his heart and said a number.

"How much? 2 taels?!" The Empress stood up straight away and exclaimed loudly. It's not the Empress's fault. Under normal conditions, this amount of money is ignored by everyone.

But now everyone in the court knows that the poorest is the empress and the treasury.

So the amount of money was much more than what was asked for before, and the Empress was naturally surprised to take out so much at once.

It can be said that this figure was unexpected by the empress, who originally thought that the sky would only be 1 taels, but the empress quickly restrained the expression on her face and showed an embarrassed smile.

The Tianshan snow lotus that Chen Xianshi went to buy might be real, but he didn't need so much at all.

What is the purpose of Chen Xianshi's trip this time? Only he himself knows. Now, he is helping the Empress to practice the elixir, and he only needs two herbs.

Chen Xianshi doesn't know how to practice any immortality pills at all, all of this is a lie to the Empress.

Master Chen Xianshi didn't expect that the empress would really believe it and entrusted these things to herself. Master Chen Xianshi could only say that she had a hot head at the time and blew a bull's eye.

But in this, he tasted the sweetness. Most of the silver given by the empress before went into Chen Xianshi's own pocket.

For alchemists like them, once the furnace is broken, the medicinal materials will naturally be useless, not to mention the elixir of immortality.

Is it that easy to practice?
So it was natural to deceive the empress around.

Chen Xianshi came here this time because he planned to arrange a runaway before he could finish training.

Chen Xianshi planned to leave the palace in person, transport his money out, and make perfect preparations for his own escape in the future. Chen Xianshi didn't believe in anyone, only believed in himself, and naturally he would not borrow the hands of others.

And for the 2 taels of silver, Chen Xianshi wanted to make another big ticket before running away.

Of course, Master Chen would bring it back as he said, but it would only be two or three hundred taels at most.

And the money brought back will naturally enter the mouth of the Alchemy Pavilion, don't forget that there is still the last blind medicinal material that has not been found, this is a place that can be manipulated.

Sometimes Chen Xianshi really doesn't understand, he clearly heard before that the female emperor's wisdom is close to that of a demon.

But after contacting it, no one believed it, the immortality pill, the Empress actually believed it.

Chen Xianshi also found it strange, Chen Xianshi didn't intend to deceive the Empress at the beginning, after all, it was a crime of beheading, and no one wanted to live on the tip of a sword.

It can be said that the empress gave him the courage, and also gave him a way to make a fortune.

It will be delivered to him, how could Master Chen give up?
People die for money, birds die for food, this is an ancient truth, not to mention, this big fat sheep is so cooperative, how could Chen Xianshi watch it for nothing and not slaughter it.

The empress stood up and walked back and forth in the study.

Chen Xianshi asked for too much money this time, the Empress wanted to keep some in her hand, but in the end she had to give it all, which was not enough.

The empress knew that she didn't need to be so worried, so she directly asked Chen Yi to enter the palace to get 1 taels of silver for herself.

However, the Empress knew about Chen Yi's temper, and if she gave all the money to the Alchemy Pavilion, Chen Yi might turn the world upside down for herself.
In addition to these silver, the empress did not want to announce it to the world.

Just like what Chen Yi said, the Empress was also very worried. If the Lord of the Liao Kingdom found out, it would be hard not to hold a grudge. In addition, the second prince of the Liao Kingdom, after all, was the father and son of the Lord of the Liao Kingdom.

At that time, the Liao Kingdom's lord became angry and sent troops to the south directly. She had no way to save her.

Therefore, this sum of money must be well hidden.

The empress sighed: "Master Chen, it's not that the widow doesn't give it, but that the amount is too large. Now, the Imperial Bank is jointly managed by the chief assistant of the cabinet and the household department. Even if the widow wants to use the money, it has to be reviewed by them. Master Chen Xian, you should go back and wait for the news."

Chen Xianshi carefully observed the expression on the empress's face.

It can be seen that the Empress has already taken the matter to heart, and Master Chen Xianshi naturally would not do that kind of persecution.

Very understanding: "Pindao is waiting for your Majesty's good news."

After Chen Xianshi finished speaking, he bowed and saluted, and then slowly exited the imperial study room.

Eunuch Li asked someone to send him away, then he turned around and heard no sound in the sky, and walked in slowly with a tea set.

After pouring the tea, he raised his head inadvertently, and saw the empress frowning, sitting in a daze.

Eunuch Li naturally wouldn't disturb, so he pushed it down silently, but after pushing it outside the store, he shook his head helplessly.
