"Master Jiang, 300 million taels of gold and silver jewelry is no small matter. If all gold and silver jewelry are used, the delivery will be delayed. The official suggests that it is best to buy some other valuable items to offset them. They are light and valuable, something that we don't have in many Western Regions." ! After all, rare things are valuable!"

Jiang Yuanming pondered for a moment and his eyes lit up: "Glass mirror?"

Young Master Liu looked around and held Jiang Yuanming's shoulders: "Three to seven points, how about wiping off the difference from the captured horses?"

"My official seven?"

"Old Jiang, do you think it's possible?"

Jiang Yuanming sighed and shook his head: "Master Liu, although this is not corruption, but everyone in the capital does not know that the mirror is your business. If you buy something from your house, you will have to pay seven of your officials for the difference. You will take all the good things." ! Besides, this official is not such a person, forget it!"

"Fourty six!"

"Lord Liu, I see more than tens of millions of taels of silver every year in charge of the treasury. How can I be tempted by such a small amount of money? Let me leave. I am going to prepare things to be shipped to northern Xinjiang!"

"Two and one add five, can't make a sentence!"

"make a deal!"

Jiang Yuanming, who was about to walk forward, immediately turned around and grabbed Young Master Liu's hand and shook it violently a few times!

"Old Jiang, you are ruthless!"

"Oh, why is Master Liu's words so unappealing? Is this official just to earn this little money? It's all to give you face, Master Liu. After all, we are not only ministers in the same palace, but also officials in the same government. I can't justify not giving you a little face!"

"It's worth it, the mirror of 50 taels of silver, go and trade it with the Marquis of Guannei, just tell me what I mean!"

Jiang Yuanming hesitated for a moment: "Master Liu, I think it's better to make a whole, a mirror of 100 million taels of silver is ready, mirrors are so expensive that 50 taels can't buy much, right!"

"Can you eat it?"

"I make money openly and aboveboard. How can I not eat it if I don't steal or grab it? This is not money obtained with ignorance of conscience! Besides, I am not doing it for money, but to give you a thin face, Mr. Liu. Really, look at this From the honest and honest face of the officer, you can tell that the officer is not a liar!"

"Old Jiang, why do I feel that His Majesty's handing over the national treasury to you is the biggest mistake? I suspect that the last bad debt was not caused by you, right?"

"Lord Liu, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated. You can despise this official's personality, but don't insult my official rank. Besides, that bad debt was left by your uncle Song Yu when he was an official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, okay?" , don't blame the official!"

"All right, all right, you should be upright and honest! Hurry up and go about your business!"

"Okay, I will take my leave, state affairs are the most important thing!"

"Slow walk without sending!"

"By the way, Lord Liu!"

"what happened again?"

"I'm really not here to make money, but to give you a bad face. You can't think wrong about me!"

"Get out, get out of here!"

"Farewell!"

"Brother-in-law, please stay!"

Liu Mingzhi paused in his steps, frowned slightly, turned around, hugged him and saluted: "Liu Mingzhi is attending His Royal Highness Prince Qing!"

"Hey, you don't need to be too polite. Apart from being an official in the same dynasty, you are still Yan'er's husband-in-law. We are in-laws. It would be too outlandish for you to be so polite!"

"In that case, thank you Your Highness!"

"I've said it all, you're welcome, just call me second brother, brother-in-law, is there anything going on after you go down to court?"

"This... is not a big deal!"

"Since this is the case, how about going to the second brother's house, I know that brother-in-law likes to drink, my house has recently acquired two jars of 50-year-old wine, how about going to taste it?"

Liu Mingzhi hesitated in his heart, glanced at the curious eyes of the passing officials and nodded slightly: "Your Highness invites..."

"My son-in-law, the empress is here to invite you!"

Liu Mingzhi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, the call from the Queen's mother-in-law came too timely, he could not categorically refuse King Qing's invitation, that would be tantamount to turning against King Qing.

But if I went there, I don't know what the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty would think.

I didn't say clearly that I took the position of any prince, and many people thought that I was standing in the prince's line by default. The reason why I didn't explain it was that Liu Mingzhi knew that the more he explained some things, the more confused he became. Instead, he felt like he wanted to cover up .

Liu Mingzhi had no doubts that he would be in different minds if he accepted King Qing's invitation.

Just because the regent drank privately with Prince Qing, a powerful rival of the prince, just because he was open-minded doesn't mean that others would think the same way!

"Your Highness, look..."

Prince Qing looked a little unwilling but nodded helplessly: "Since the empress mother summoned me, I think it is urgent, I will find a chance to invite you to my brother-in-law in the future, and I will keep those two jars of good wine for you! "

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness, and farewell!"

"Walk slowly!"

Liu Mingzhi looked at the manager Qian Lu who was beside the queen and smiled slightly: "Manager Qian, please!"

Qian Lu glanced at King Qing with a faint smile and waved his fly whisk: "Please, son-in-law, let's go together!"

"Did the queen mother urgently call me, did you say what it was?"

Qian Lu nodded cheerfully: "Your Majesty, knowing that Lord Hou has just come to court, specially ordered the imperial dining room to cook a table of good dishes for His Royal Highness and the son-in-law to eat. Someone has already invited Princess Anping!"

Liu Mingzhi's heart sank, it was another 'Hongmen Banquet'!

Chapter 844 High and Powerful

The son-in-law Liu Mingzhi sees his mother, and sees His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

Li Baiyu immediately stood up and greeted him: "Brother-in-law, you are here! Take your seat!"

"Your Highness, you can't do this. It's fine for you to come by yourself. Please sit down, Your Highness!"

Liu Mingzhi really couldn't stand Li Baiyu's attitude. Although he seemed to be close to him a lot, he was still a monarch and minister.

The prince is also a prince, and Liu Mingzhi really can't accept this kind of attitude towards him.

Or rather, it feels awkward!

There are five exquisite side dishes and a small pot of lotus seed soup on the table, which exudes a tempting fragrance. As the master of the harem, he only prepared five side dishes and a bowl of porridge, which is not true of his status.

But it can also be seen that the queen's thrifty nature, the real mother of the world, remembers bitterness and thinks sweet!Liu Mingzhi's stomach involuntarily made a gurgling sound.
