I’m a Gangster [Quick Wear]
Chapter 40: Kong Jing Chenzi (6)
Emperor Jianming looked at the shocking number, only feeling that his heart was dripping blood. He couldn't help it at the moment, and he gave Shao Yu a decree, asking him to collect all the silver owed, and even explicitly wrote it down. Whether it is royal family or honorable, all are the same people.
This decree, along with Shao Yu’s statement to liquidate all the owed silver matters, has been in the ears of the officials in Beijing in the shortest possible time. The petty officials shivered, but the real high-ranking officials and nobles are all not the same. Going on.
The news reached the Chen family, and it reached the ears of the incumbent Anguo. He just listened to the ear casually, and laughed "self-consciously". He even thought of catching fire because of the slightest concern with his original body. Pour the oil, and immediately sent the housekeeper unscrupulously, holding his own famous post, and then borrowing some money from the treasury.
The housekeeper of the Anguo government came again, and the people in the household department also felt a headache. This Anguo government was the family of the emperor, and Anguo was the emperor’s cousin. He was already powerful, and behind him stood the queen mother and virtue The concubine and the seventh prince, such a prominent court, the Ministry of Households naturally did not dare to offend.
But now in this situation, if you borrow money to Anguo, I’m afraid it’s not easy to explain to the emperor, but if you don’t borrow, I’m afraid to give Anguo a grudge. Under the dilemma, Zheng Shangshu kicked the ball to Shao Yu. Underfoot.
The seventh grade official in front of the prime minister’s door, although the steward of the Anguo family is a subordinate, but when he saw Shao Yu, he did not mean anything, and said, "Master Shao, my family’s grandfather sent me to borrow money, Zheng Shangshu Now that the matter of the treasury borrowing money is yours, please be accommodating and approve the notes as soon as possible. Don't take time to delay the important affairs of our country."
Shao Yu took the note, glanced at the amount of money on it, frowned, and asked, "A major event for the prince? What major event is he borrowing thirty thousand taels of silver?"
"Duke Guo got up this morning and looked at the garden at home uncomfortable. He wanted to demolish and rebuild. He was short of money. That's why he wanted to borrow a little." The butler explained with a smile, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with An Guo Gong's move. It's proper.
Hearing this, Shao Yu asked curiously: "Master Guo is going to build a garden again? I vaguely remember that he only built Qingshui Villa last month. This time he is building a garden in the city or a garden outside the city?"
The housekeeper is used to making a big banner with the name of the government of Anguo, so he didn’t feel that something was wrong. Instead, he explained to Shao Yu patiently: “It’s the garden in the government of the government. When the yard was built, the craftsmen didn’t care. The feng shui is broken, and now the grandfather of the country is thinking that he wants to invite an expert to re-plan."
Shao Yu nodded, and then said, "This is indeed a major event if the feng shui is broken, but it can't be sloppy. Can the grandfather decide which master to invite?"
The butler frowned. This was a reason An Guogong added. After careful study, the butler couldn't answer at all. He had to say: "Master Shao, now that the master hasn't settled down, the old slave can't say it clearly. I only look forward to you. Don't shirk any more. If you provoke our country's grandfather, you may not be able to bear the consequences."
Shao Yu raised his eyebrows slightly. He is now a second-rank official at any rate. He didn't expect that a housekeeper from the Anguo government would speak such shameless words.
In fact, Shao Yu misunderstood. If it is a normal official of the second grade, the people of the Anguo government must be treated politely. However, Shao Yu is a person who has participated in the performance of Anguo. He hates Shao Yu deeply, so he His servants would not be so polite to Shao Yu.
"Does the housekeeper mean the grandfather's meaning?" Shao Yu asked.
The butler lighted up the famous post in his hand, nodded, and said, “That’s the case. Although the grandfather did not come, he has already handed over everything to the old slave before leaving. Master Shao, you should hurry up. Don't let our grandfather wait for a long time."
"Duke Guo wants to borrow money, that's okay."
The housekeeper immediately laughed when he heard this. He only assumed that Shao Yu changed his attitude at this time, intending to make amends to Anguo for his previous participation in the performance. Say a few words for the adults in front of the grandfather of the country."
Shao Yu also smiled happily and said, "It is not difficult to borrow again if you have borrowed, and you must understand this principle. When he clears the debts in front of him, I will approve this immediately to ensure that he repairs the garden. Things are not delayed for a moment."
The smile on the butler's face froze. After a while, he asked in disbelief, "Master Shao, are you aiming at our grandfather? You can see clearly that our grandfather is the nephew of the current queen mother. , You are against the grandfather of the country, you are against the queen mother, you should think carefully in your heart."
Shao Yu shook his head, and said, "The butler's words are wrong. This official acted in accordance with the rules. How could he be aimed at the grandfather of the country? This rule is set by your majesty. If the grandfather of the country feels that this is embarrassing him, then Is it in the heart of the grandfather that he is above your majesty? Or do you think that in the heart of the queen mother, the nephew of the grandfather is more important than your majesty?"
"Master Shao, don't talk nonsense, our father-in-law has never said anything like this!"
Shao Yu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said, "Since you said that, that means that the grandfather must abide by the rules set by your majesty? Now your majesty is urging the families to pay back the money."
The steward did not answer for a while, nor did he not answer. If he should not come down, it means that the Lord of the Country is older than the emperor, but if he answers, isn't it that he promised the Lord of the Lord to pay back the money.
Shao Yu didn't give him too much time to react, and immediately said to the people around him: "Anguo supports His Majesty like this and is so loyal. This matter must be spread for him so that the people in Beijing will know. How loyal the Lord of the Kingdom is."
"Master Shao, Master Shao said cautiously, Lord Guo didn't say such things, don't go out and talk nonsense..." The housekeeper was a little incoherent anxiously.
"Steward, what you said is wrong. Although Lord Guo didn't say this, but the steward, you also said it. What you mean is what Lord Lord means, and you represent Lord Lord, isn’t this Conveyed the wishes of the Lord Guo."
The steward immediately defended: "Old slaves don't mean that. Old slaves can't represent the Lord of the country. Don't talk nonsense, Lord Shao..."
Shao Yu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Butler, don't be humble. Don't worry, Lord Guo is so loyal. The official will definitely speak for him in front of your majesty."
The housekeeper wanted to cry without tears at this time, and his heart trembled when he heard the word "beautiful words". This sentence was just a response to what he said before that he wanted to speak for Shao Yu in front of the grandfather of the country. Knowing that he was put on by Shao Yu, the problem now is not whether the grandfather of the country has not repaid the money, but whether he is a housekeeper or not.
"Master Shao, it's not good to go out and talk nonsense, please raise your hand and let the old slave go?" In order to prevent this from happening, the butler had already knelt down and begged Shao Yu.
Shao Yu immediately stretched out his hand to help him up, and said, "You are the steward of the Guogong's mansion, and you are a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister. You must be a sixth-rank official no matter what. Everyone is an official. Don't kneel."
Listening to Shao Yu's ridicule, the housekeeper immediately had the desire to die.
Shao Yu didn't care about his thoughts at all, but said to the officials below: "Hurry up and write a note, just follow the instructions I taught you before."
The butler wanted to kneel down for a long time, but he didn’t expect that Shao Yu, a civil official, would have such a great strength. When he thought that if he came to the household department, he didn’t borrow the money, he would come to the household department to express his determination on behalf of Anguo. Yes, I just feel black before my eyes.
The housekeeper's tears fell anxiously, and said, "Master Shao, I was impolite before. You have a lot of things, don't worry about it..."
Shao Yu shook his head, and said, "This is a great event. Why are you crying? It is a blessing for the country and the people to have such a realization. Yu, respect him as a good man upright!"
The steward saw that Shao Yu didn’t listen to what he said, and even the situation was really going as he expected. He was so frightened that he collapsed. He thought of the huge sum of money owed by his master and what is left on the books of the Anguo government. To save more money, the money won’t come out even if he sells his butler.
He couldn't even imagine how he would face the master's question after he returned.
"My lord, do you really want to write like this?" The book official who ghosted Shao Yu held the pen, and was afraid to write the last sentence for a long while.
Shao Yu, like a okay person, said: "It’s okay, just write it, and affix my big seal after writing it."
The book official had no choice but to write down the piece of paper in the end, and then took the official seal of Shao Yu from the side and sealed it.
"Come here, send the butler back to the Anguo government."
Shao Yu called someone and dragged the butler from the ground.
"You have to be polite. The butler represents Duke An Guo. You have to treat him like Duke Guo. You can't neglect it." Shao Yu exhorted.
The butler's legs just straightened up, so scared that he softened again, he was supported by a bunch of guards to the Guogong Mansion. In addition to the guards, he was followed by a group of people.
All the people in this team were holding musical instruments in their hands, and they kept blowing and singing as they walked. They shouted: "Anguo is very righteous, voluntarily change the seller's wealth to repay the debts, and help the saint to fill the national treasury."
They beat the gongs and drums all the way to the gate of the Guogong Mansion. A guard went to knock the door. After the steward was delivered to the hand of Anguo Gong, the team banged gongs and drums and shouted slogans back to the household.
It's rare to have such a lively scene that even aroused melon-loving people in Beijing to follow along with excitement.
"What are they calling?" a passerby asked.
Someone immediately replied: "It seems to be talking about the repayment of An Guo Gong."
"Have you paid back the money?"
Someone replied uncertainly: "It seems to have already paid it back? Or are you planning to pay it back? I didn't hear too clearly."
However, within a day, the issue of the repayment of the money by Anguo spread throughout Beijing. Although the news received by each family was different sooner or later, it was more accurate than that of the market. After knowing that Anguo intends to pay the money, he should pay it. Good people will immediately break the threshold of Anguo Government.
"Where is the household money?" Anguo asked unhappyly, looking at the empty-handed butler.
"They didn't borrow it. The old slave said it was the money the father-in-law wanted, but they just killed it and didn't borrow it..." The butler explained in a low voice.
Anguo listened to Huo Da and asked, "Who does the household department borrow money? Is it Zheng Qifang? He is so bold!"
Hearing Zheng Shangshu's name taboo, the housekeeper shook his head and explained: "Master Zheng said that now Master Shao is transferred to the household department, this matter of borrowing money from the treasury and collecting funds is also under the control of Master Shao."
An Guogong listened to the fire and said: "This Shao Yu, he is so courageous, he dare not lend money to his country's father, please tell me carefully, what did he say?"
The housekeeper shrank his neck in fright. He didn't dare to say that he was willing to accept what Shao Yu had done. He just said: "Master Shao said that you have borrowed and repaid it. He just said that the money you owed in front of you has not been paid back. The money was borrowed, so if he did not approve the notes, the money would not be able to be borrowed..."
Anguo was so angry that his eyebrows were raised when he was public, and he cursed: "This Shao Yu, who entered the household department, dare to fight against me. He thinks he is something, he really thinks he is a copper pea that can't be knocked off. See if I will kill him!"
The butler bit the bullet, took out the note written by Shao Yu, and gave it to Duke Ang with both hands, and said, "Master Shao also ordered someone to write a note and let it be presented to the father-in-law..."
Anguo opened the note and glanced hurriedly. He immediately became so angry that blue veins appeared on his forehead, as if he could not believe it. He looked at it carefully again, and after seeing it clearly verbatim, Mr. Ang covered it up on the spot. The printed sliver is torn off.
"'Don't say it's unpredictable', what a'Don't say it's unpredictable', I want to see how he will use the national law to deal with me!"
The butler backed away in fright.
An Guogong tore the note, still feeling irritable in his heart, and said: "Prepare the sedan chair and clean it up. The father of the country personally goes to the household department and asks Zheng Qifang for money. Seeing him, Shao Yu, dare not stop me!"
But before he left, someone came to visit him. It was King Xian who lived next to his house.
King Xian was not polite when he met An Guogong, and said straightforwardly: "The surname is Chen, you are really unkind. The big guys have agreed. If you lie together, you will be pleased and behaved, in order to coax the emperor. I am happy, saying that even if you smash the pot and sell the iron, you have to pay back the money you owe. Are you deliberately deceiving this king?"
After being so stunned, Anguo was still confused, and asked: "What does the prince mean? What is the payment? I have never said such a thing."
King Xian sneered, and mocked: "Now it's all spread out. You, An Guogong, send a housekeeper to the household to make a determination. Even if you sell your garden and house your property, you will pay back the money owed by the treasury. Yes, the whole city knows that you, Anguo, is a good cousin of your majesty. He is really loyal and loyal."
A series of question marks suddenly appeared on Lord Anguo's head. He turned his head and glanced at the housekeeper, only to realize that the trash had already knelt on the ground shivering with fright.
King Xian is a famous firecracker mouth. Once opened, he can’t stop. He is still babbling and cursing: “Now that the capital is full, you’re a loyal official of Anguo. You are so loyal and anxious to pay back. Money, it makes us old things ignorant of admiration, no matter, who made you such a double-faced villain, this king is considered to be taken away, and we will take a look in the future!"
"Master, listen to me. I didn't send a housekeeper to pay back the money. I borrowed the money..." Anguo explained bitterly.
But Wang Xian was a short-tempered man, and he didn't think about it carefully. He just said: "It's spread all over the capital, and you still have to quibble now. Do you think it's fun to lie to the king?"
After all, walk away.
After King Xian left, the Anguo Government did not calm down, instead, the powerful and powerful people familiar with Anguo came to the door again, not for anything else, only to inquire about sins.
This group of people caused trouble. Anguo was stunned that he had not been able to get out of his home door all day. He explained that his saliva was dry. Few people believed that when he asked the butler carefully, he knew that this was caused by Shao Yu. It's over.
"Well, you Shao Yu, my father is not over with you!"
Anguo's heart hated him, and even when he called the Qingke to write the memorial, he carefully told the female relatives at home to let them cry in the palace tomorrow.
Originally in the capital, officials of all sizes who were waiting to see whether they would repay the money, seeing this situation, the nobles continued to choose not to move, and many of those little officials were already in a hurry to send the money to the household.
It is said that Beijing officials are poor, but since they are officials, most of them don’t feel bad about their lives. It is a rare and upright official like Shao Yu. With years of salary, his family also bought a house, and there were also two subordinates. Driven by the whole family.
Therefore, as soon as the direction of the wind changed, the little officials who owed money were immediately relieved of their constraints, and they could get the money back with a pool.
It’s just that the high-ranking officials can stand their temper. They all thought that even if they really paid back the money, they would still think about it after seeing the government of Anguo actually repay the money. Now it’s the trend of the government of Anguo. , Has become a weather vane in Beijing.
On the second day, after Anguo's persevering explanation, the oolong of paying back the money was also clarified by some high-ranking officials, and immediately there were a bunch of memorabilia accusing Shao Yu of "acting under the circumstances and acting sneaky". The desk of Emperor Jianming.
Before the Emperor Jianming would finish reading the memorial, the Queen Mother summoned him.
The queen mother is sixty-eight years old this year, and one foot has already reached the threshold of seventy. This age is considered a longevity in ancient times. At this time, the gray-haired and beaded old lady was rubbing her forehead. Looked at Emperor Jianming with a straight face.
"Your family has not managed well in the past few years, and the family cannot make ends meet, so they borrowed some money from the treasury. The Ai family also knows that the treasury is short of money, and the Chen family has made you embarrassed."
Emperor Jianming didn't speak. If he didn't know how much money the Chen family owed, he might have swiped a big pen and said that he didn't need to pay it back. But now that he knew how much money the Chen family owed, he just wanted to copy the Anguo government.
Seeing that the emperor didn’t speak, the queen mother had no choice but to continue singing the show alone, saying: “The Chen family borrowed the money and didn’t pay it back. They are indeed at fault. Chen Guogong pays back the money. Now you are forcing them to pay back the money, isn't you forcing their family to die?"
If it weren’t for the statistical table that Shao Yu sent over earlier, and the balance sheet of the Anguo Gongfu that Shao Yu sent over afterwards, it is estimated that Emperor Jianming would have believed the Queen Mother’s nonsense.
"Mother, Queen Anguo clearly knew that I was calling for payment during this period, but he sent someone to the Ministry of Household to borrow money yesterday, saying that he was going to build the garden. He was so unscrupulous and treated the national treasury as his own private treasury. Did he tell you about this?" Jianming Emperor asked.
The queen mother was taken aback for a moment, and she scolded her family for being honest, but she still said: "This is because he did not do the right thing. When I turn around, I will persuade him to be more restrained, to build less gardens, and to save your majesty more money. ."
When Emperor Jianming heard this, he laughed on the spot. The meaning of the words of the queen mother really felt that the Chen family asked the treasury for money, and it was not a big deal.
At the moment, Emperor Jianming didn’t think he was going to give Chen Guogong any face. He handed the two forms to the female officials next to the Queen Mother. On the first form, it was recorded that the money owed by An Guogong. The government borrowed money from the national treasury if there was nothing to do, and the total amount was as high as one million taels.
On the other table, the properties of the Anguo Government were only inquired by Shao Yu. They were all confirmed to belong to the Anguo Government. There are many hidden places that Shao Yu could not find out. It is estimated that they will only More than less.
The large and small farms, gardens, and various shops recorded on the table look dazzling, and the Anguo Government does not seem to be unable to survive.
"The income of the national treasury in one year, using the power of the whole country, can only collect three million taels. After 20 years, the Guang'an Guogong has borrowed more than one million taels. Mother, the Chen family can tell you about this. ?"
The impact of numbers is really too intuitive. For a while, what the Queen Mother Chen was about to say was also a little unspeakable.
In the end, her family’s family was more important. The Queen Mother Chen bit her scalp and said: "Although the Anguo Government has set up so many properties, it has also raised and bought so many people. If it really sells the properties to pay back the money, then the Chen family will have hundreds of people. What about the people?"
"As far as I know, the main branch of the Chen family is not close to the side branches. Except for clan studies, it seems that the main branch has no support for the side branches, and that clan studies are mainly supported by the sacrificial fields. Raising the entire Chen family?"
The empress dowager felt a little in her heart. Seeing that the emperor was like this, she understood that the emperor had come prepared and determined, and she had no choice but to say: "The Ai family now doesn’t know how long they can live. The Chen family is all A litter of unsatisfactory things, a tired emperor’s heart, should be beaten, it’s just that when people get old, the more they don’t see their loved ones suffer..."
Emperor Jianming had been dealing with his mother for more than 50 years. How could he not understand that the Queen Mother was advancing by retreating, but the affairs of the country were still bigger than the family affairs after all.
"Don't worry, the queen, the Chen family has committed a crime. If you really want to deal with them in accordance with the national law, it would be too ruthless. The blood of the Chen family is also flowing on my body. I can guarantee with the queen that the Chen family will never be punished or beaten. ."
Empress Dowager Chen breathed a sigh of relief, she heard Emperor Jianming say: "The penalty is exempt, but the money is to be repaid. However, the future may be a little poorer, but it is not a major event. Congee and cabbage, but the queen can rest assured that she still has her life."
