The Jagged Empire of Daqin

"Hexi county water conservancy project plan, put it on the agenda!" Ying Chang said indifferently, although his tone was indifferent, it gave off an unquestionable majesty.

"I obey the order!" Jiang Haiyou bowed respectfully in response, and then stood back in the official queue.

Ying Chang waved his hand at Jia Luo, "Go ahead!"

Jia Luo nodded and continued: "The 14th year of Shengqin ushered in a bumper harvest, and Daqin's financial revenue once again broke the record. According to repeated calculations by the Ministry of Households, the grain tax of the 14th year of Shengqin was 800 million shi, which is higher than that of Shengqin. In 13 years, Qin produced 100 million more stones!"

"The salt tax is 480 million taels of silver, 13 taels more than the 80th year of Shengqin, the commercial tax is 300 million taels, a full 13 million taels more than the 600th year of Shengqin, and the tariff is 800 million taels of silver. 13 million taels of silver more than Sheng Qin in 300 years!"

"The government of the seventeen counties outside the customs sold a total of 100 million head of cattle, with a profit of 200 million taels of silver, an average of 12 taels of silver per head, and 200 million sheep, with a profit of 600 million taels of silver, with an average of 70 taels of silver per head. 700 horses, a profit of 500 million taels of silver, an average of [-] taels of silver per horse, a total profit of [-] million taels of silver!"

"Six factories, three wineries, and three textile factories have been built by the Ministry of Households at their own expense. Shengqin's total profit in 14 was 400 million taels of silver. This year's fiscal revenue is 800 million shi grains and 480 million taels of silver After this year's fiscal revenue is charged to the treasury, the treasury now has 170 million shi grains, 30 million taels of silver, and 48 taels of gold!"

Ying Chang couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and said with a smile in his tone: "A year's financial income is 480 million taels, and only I, Daqin, can do it in the whole world. It seems that this northwest desert can not only make my Daqin The expansion of the territory can also expand our Daqin financial revenue, which is a great joy!"

"Great Qin Wanfu!" All the ministers shouted in unison.

"However, we must control the output of cattle, sheep and horses. Just kidding, don't even have a single calving cattle, sheep and horses in the Northwest Desert!" Ying Chang said with a smile.

"Haha!" All the ministers laughed lightly.

After a while, Chang Zifei saw that no one was standing out of the queue, so he took a small step forward. Seeing Chang Zifei standing up, Jia Luo immediately retreated to his seat, only to see Chang Zifei facing Ying respectfully. Chang bowed and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to play!"

"Quasi-playing!" Ying Chang replied softly.

Chang Zifei took out a memorial from his arms, lowered his head respectfully and presented it to the high platform, Ying Chang took the memorial from Chang Zifei, Chang Zifei quickly stepped back from the high platform, stood back on his seat, Ying Chang turned over With a glance at the opening memorial, I knew it was this year's budget memorial.

Ministry of War: The budget of the Ministry of Ordnance is 1000 million taels of silver, the budget of the army is 200 million taels of silver, and 500 million shi of grain. The annual daily expenditure budget of the Ministry of War is 50 taels of silver!

Ministry of Rites: The Ministry of Rites has a daily budget of 10 taels of silver for one year!

Household Department: The 340 counties in the Northwest Desert need 20 million shi of grain to maintain, and each county is allocated 300 shi of grain. The annual daily expenses of the government offices in various parts of the Great Qin Empire, as well as the salaries of local officials and court officials, are budgeted at 10 million taels of silver, plus household The daily expenditure budget of the ministry is [-] taels of silver for one year!

Ministry of Punishment: The Ministry of Punishment has a daily budget of 15 taels of silver for one year.

Ministry of Industry: Guangfeng County water conservancy project budget, daily expenditure budget of the Ministry of Industry, the total budget is 190 million taels of silver.

Ministry of Officials: The Ministry of Officials has a daily budget of 15 taels of silver for one year.

Preparatory camp: The total budget for this year is 75 taels of silver and 55 shi of grain!

The sum of the 14-year financial budget of the Great Qin Empire Shengqin: 8705 million taels of silver and 890 million shi of grain!

Excluding this year's budget, the treasury currently has 1505 million taels of silver, 4000 million 75 million shi of grain, and 48 taels of gold!

After reading the memorial, Ying Chang put it away, put it gently on the imperial case, looked at Chang Zifei and said, "I have read the budget, and I have no objections!"

Chang Zifei raised his hand as a salute, and returned to his seat. Ying Chang first glanced around at the officials, and then said with a smile in his tone: "This victory over Yan not only signed a tribute agreement with the Yan Empire, but also 800 million taels of silver were seized from the Yan Empire!"

Gollum!

There was a sound of swallowing saliva, and the faces of the ministers were shocked, and their mouths were half-opened. They were obviously shocked by the number, but it was also reasonable. This is 800 taels of silver, just a fraction of it. An astronomical figure, not to mention adding [-] million.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is Daqin's ten-year financial income!

"Where is the Minister of Hubu!" Ying Chang called softly!

PS: "Everyone, please have pity on me. Can you give me a recommendation ticket? Can you give me a monthly ticket? Can you order one for all? Can you give me a reward? Not too many, just think about it!"

Chapter 490 The Mission of 42 Countries to Qin!

At this time, Jia Luo was already in the midst of great ecstasy and excitement. He didn't hear Ying Chang calling him at all. Yang Ze who was standing next to him kicked him lightly before he could react. After the reaction, Jia Luo hurriedly Standing out of the queue, he raised his hands trembling with excitement and saluted: "The minister...the minister is here!"

Jarrow's tongue was tied in excitement, and he couldn't speak clearly.

Ying Chang leaned back, looked at Jia Luo in the most comfortable posture and said, "Go to the capital camp later and receive the spoils of war!"

Jia Luo took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, bent down and responded, "I obey the order!" After answering, the excited Jia Luo stood back to his seat, the treasury was full of money, and his waist couldn't help it. straightened up.

To have money is to have confidence!

"Where is the Secretary of the Ministry of Industry!" Ying Chang immediately called softly!

"The minister is here!" Jiang Haiyou quickly stood out of the official queue and responded.

"How long will it take for the Guangfeng County Water Conservancy Project to be completed?" Ying Chang looked at Jiang Haiyou expressionlessly and asked.

When Jiang Haiyou heard the words, he bowed down respectfully and saluted and replied: "It will take three years to return to Your Majesty!"

Ying Chang nodded, expressing his understanding that three years is not too long or short, and it is still within the acceptable range. Seeing Ying Chang nodding, Jiang Haiyou retreated to his stand.

"Where is the Minister of Rites!" Ying Chang whispered again!

"The minister is here!" Kong, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, stepped out of the queue and responded.

"Fifteen days later, it will be the day of the Kyushu Feast Ceremony. How many envoys from the Kyushu countries have come?" asked Kong, who was looking closely at Ying Chang.

"Returning to Your Majesty, there have been 42 diplomatic missions to Qin Dynasty who have arrived in Xianyang. All of them are resting in the guild hall of the Ministry of Rites. I checked the map of Kyushu with my colleagues from the Ministry of Rites. All the ministers have arrived in Xianyang!" Kong reported with a smile on his face.

call!

Ying Chang heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the Kyushu countries would not show face. When the time came, the Kyushu feast ceremony created by the Great Qin Empire would completely become a joke of the countries. At that time, the Great Qin Empire would lose all face. It's very face-saving, only the Great Wu Empire doesn't give face.

Because the Great Yan Empire did not come, it is reasonable, after all, they have not recovered from being beaten, but why the Great Wu Empire did not come, it is obviously not giving the Great Qin Empire face.

"Why didn't the Great Wu Empire send envoys? What did the envoys to Wu and Qin say?" Ying Chang was curious why the Great Wu Empire didn't send people here. Did the Great Qin Empire hurt the Great Wu Empire invisibly?No, if I remember correctly, the Great Wu Empire is located in the southeast of Kyushu, and the Great Qin is located in the west corner of Kyushu. The two empires are not in the way at all. How could the Great Qin provoke the Great Wu Empire.

But why did the Great Wu Empire reject the invitation of the Great Qin Empire?

"Uh..." Kong was at a loss for words for a while, and didn't know what to say for a while, and the rest of the officials also shook their heads and smiled wryly.

Seeing the attitude of the ministers, Ying Chang couldn't figure it out, and when he was about to ask a question, Kong Mian replied with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, you don't know, the Great Wu Empire was destroyed by the Great Wu Empire in the spring of last year. The Wei Empire was destroyed, because the Great Wu Empire was far away from the Great Qin Empire, my Great Qin did not get the news in time, when my Great Qin envoys to Wu arrived in Wu, the Great Wu Empire had already become history, and the officials I met were also Wei officials!"

What the hell!

Ying Chang was startled, the Great Wu Empire was destroyed?

Extinct just like that?

He knew about the war between the Great Wei Empire and the Great Wu Empire, but he didn't know that the Great Wu Empire was destroyed so quickly. He originally thought that the Great Wu Empire could last for ten or eight years, but in less than five years, the Great Wu Empire was destroyed. Became history!

No wonder the Great Wu Empire did not participate in the Kyushu Feast Ceremony, it turned out to be gone.

"So that's the case, then tell me which empire the 42 countries' missions to Qin belong to, who is the head of the mission, and what is the position of the head of the mission, so don't embarrass me then!" Ying Chang felt, It is very necessary for me to get a vaccination. After all, I am the boss and have envoys from various countries. If I am embarrassed and rude, it will be terrible.

"It's Your Majesty!" Kong bowed and bowed in response, then stood up straight, and replied with full of air: "Return to Your Majesty, the 42 countries' missions to Qin are Wei, Jin, Qi, Zhao, Chu, Han, Xia, Yue, Lu, Yue, Qing, Shu, Shen Thirteen Empires!"

"Zhongshan, Xiao, Nan, Yun, Lu, Zheng, Chen, Xu, Cao, Wuzhong, Zhongwu, Jiang, Dai, Ba, Nongyang, Zhang, Cai, Xue, Gan, An, Ning, Zhong, Xin, Xiang, Zhan, Zhu, Deng, Anling 28 vassal states!"

"The envoys of each country are..."

Next, Kong informed Ying Chang of all the identities of the chief envoys of the foreign missions to Qin. Write it all down.

Remembering these, Ying Chang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now, as long as the other party reported the envoy of any country, he would know the identity and name of the other party, so he didn't have to worry about the embarrassment caused by not being named.

"Okay, if there is nothing wrong with you dear ministers, you can retire!"

Ying Chang got up from the dragon chair, stretched with a tired expression, and took a breath. To be honest, going to court was more tiring than fighting.

All the ministers knelt down on the ground, and shouted in unison with respectful expressions: "I wait to send you off to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Ying Chang stepped down from the high platform and left from the kylin apse. When Ying Chang disappeared from the eyes of all the officials, all the officials got up from the ground one after another, walked with their good colleagues, and left the majestic and sacred kylin hall together.

After Ying Chang left the Qilin Houdian, he went straight to Xianyang Palace. Since there were no attendants by his side, Ying Chang shuttled through the huge palace alone. words.

Gotta find a valet!

Xianyang Palace!

Xianyang Palace is the emperor's bedroom, and the imperial guards are patrolling and guarding at twelve o'clock a day, and the guards are strict, but when Ying Chang walked to the front of Xianyang Palace, he found that the door of Xianyang Palace was open, and there were still standing at the door. Two female guards!

Since when did the palace have female guards?

Just as Ying Chang was asking questions, he suddenly found a beauty sitting on the high platform of the main hall of Xianyang Palace. This beauty was wearing a red phoenix robe and a phoenix crown, and was sitting on the black carved dragon throne with an expressionless face. It can be seen from her face that she is very angry!

And she is Yang Xiao, Empress of the Great Qin Empire!

PS: "Everyone, please have pity on me. Can you give me a recommendation ticket? Can you give me a monthly ticket? Can you order one for all? Can you give me a reward? Not too many, just think about it!"

Chapter 491 Confused Ying Chang!

Seeing that it was Yang Xiao in Xianyang Palace, Ying Chang knew that these two female guards belonged to Yang Xiao. He really didn't expect that, after not seeing him for half a year, Yang Xiao actually brought out a female guard in the palace and dared to sit on the dragon chair Come on, is she trying to rebel!

"I said why the gate of Xianyang Palace is open. It turns out that the mistress of the Great Qin Empire has come. It is really disrespectful, haha!" Ying Chang walked into Xianyang Palace with a playful smile. When the two female guards at the gate of the main hall heard Ying He couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing at the usual words.

At this time, Ying Chang was a little humble, because he probably guessed why Yang Xiao broke into Xianyang Palace without permission. Most likely, he came here for the second daughter of Zhao Mutianyue. It took more than half a year for Yujia to go on a personal expedition, and when he came back he brought two women back, no one could bear it.

"Bang!" Yang Xiao slapped the imperial case with a warm and angry face, then got up from the dragon chair, quickly walked down the high platform, walked up to Ying Chang and asked aggressively: "Be serious, stop giving me a hippie smile!" , Say, what happened to those two women!"

Originally, it was a good thing for Ying Chang's class teacher to return to the imperial court, but she heard that Ying Chang not only brought back soldiers and horses, but also brought two women back, and the first thing he did when he returned to the palace was to have someone arrange for these two women. bedroom.

When she heard the news, she almost fainted from anger, you Ying Chang, you left on the second day after my wedding, and brought two women with you when you came back, you're afraid you won't drive me to death, right?

She originally had the urge to rush into the Qilin Hall and question Ying Chang in front of all the officials, but she felt that it was inappropriate. After all, he is the emperor, so he still wants to save face with all the officials, and as the Queen of Great Qin, she can't Swear like a shrew.

In order to show the big belly of the mother of a country, Yang Xiao went to see Zhao Mu and Tian Yue with a forced smile, and had a brief chat with the two girls, but he didn't know if he didn't talk. Ying Chang had no choice but to agree to the marriage contract.

Yang Xiao felt ashamed for Ying Chang that the emperor of a country actually snatched someone else's fiancée, so after the chat, she took two female guards and went directly to Xianyang Palace to show Ying Chang a good face!

Seeing Yang Xiao's angry look, Ying Chang rolled his eyes helplessly, turned around and closed the palace door, then turned around again, pretending to be helpless and said, "This... well... I broke into A county town, and then I was bored and wanted to go shopping, but in the end, Zhao Mutianyue caught my eye and forced me to accept them as concubines, I was very helpless!"

Yang Xiao stared, and almost died in anger. Look, is this what people say?

"You're still pretending, you're still quibbling!" Yang Xiao stomped his feet angrily!

"What sophistry, I don't have sophistry!" Ying Chang looked aggrieved, he admitted that what he said just now was suspected of being embellished, but Zhao Mutian's moon phase was the truth, and he didn't take the initiative to find him because of his lust.

Ying Chang had to admit in his heart that he was indeed a scumbag, a scumbag, but he didn't lie!

"I'm so mad!" Yang Xiao slapped Ying Chang's chest angrily, and cursed while beating: "You bastard, it's fine if you take Zhao Mu by force. He doesn't have a marriage contract, but Tian Yue is a woman with a marriage contract. You still preempted it, but you are still an emperor, how can you do something that is worse than a pig or a dog, you will almost lose my face!"

Ying Chang was stunned when he heard these words!

Take Zhao Mu by force?Tian Yue has a marriage contract?It's all that and that!

Seeing Ying Chang's bewildered expression, Yang Xiao subconsciously stopped and slapped Ying Chang's chest, took a closer look at Ying Chang, and found that Ying Chang didn't seem to be pretending, so he immediately said hesitantly: "You...you don't Don't you know that Tian Yue has a marriage contract?"

Ying Chang shook his head in bewilderment.

"Could it be, do you really think they've fallen in love with you?" Yang Xiao asked again.

Ying Chang nodded.

Yang Xiao rubbed his forehead, turned around speechlessly, she had to slow down, or she would be pissed to death.

"No, how do you know that Tian Yue has a marriage contract?" Ying Chang asked in a daze.

call!

Yang Xiao took a deep breath, turned around slowly, and said very speechlessly: "I went to talk to Zhao Mutianyue just now, and they told me that they just wanted to go shopping, but you bought that thing, stop it? I want to buy what you bought!"

"Ying Chang, my Great Qin Emperor, are you too confident in your appearance? The two eldest ladies found you because of your appearance? Oh, my Great Emperor, you should pray now, pray This matter has not been spread, if it spreads, your reputation as the great emperor will be damaged!"

Ying Chang was completely bewildered, he quickly supported Yang Xiao, and said with a bewildered expression: "Help me... help me to the dragon chair, I have to take it easy, I have to take it easy..."

The news was so explosive that Ying Chang couldn't bear it.

Yang Xiao sighed softly, reached out to support the crumbling Ying Chang, and then carefully helped Ying Chang onto the carved dragon throne on the high platform. After sitting on the carved dragon throne, Ying Chang was still in a daze and hadn't recovered yet. .

Ying Chang has always hated people who rape women, but in the end, he suddenly became the person he hates the most. If he was just a prince, this matter would not be too serious, but he is the emperor, the son of the Great Qin Empire. example.

It's hard to imagine that after this story spreads, not only his face will be damaged, but the national prestige of the entire Great Qin Empire will also be damaged. The impact is really too great, which is greater than the impact of losing a war.

"I don't even know what to say about you!" Yang Xiao was helpless and speechless. Ying Chang, who was usually very wise, suddenly became so confused. He was so smart for a while!

"I am innocent!" Ying Chang couldn't help crying out!

Yang Xiao rolled his eyes and sighed softly: "What's the use of calling me wrong, I am your queen, I believe that you are wronged, the people of Qin are your subjects, and maybe I also believe in your character of a wise king who loves the people like a son, but the world Do the people believe it?"

"If this matter is used by someone with a heart, your reputation will be completely rotten. How can you conquer the world and unify Kyushu? Will they let an emperor who raped the women rule them?" Yang Xiao hated iron but steel Said, the more he said, the more dignified his expression became.

Ying Chang is the person she loves the most. Seeing that the person she loves the most is about to be in danger, how can she feel comfortable? The anger that was caused by Ying Chang bringing the second daughter into the palace before quickly dissipated. Now she just wants to help Ying Chang Often cleared of this charge.

PS: "Everyone, please have pity on me. Can you give me a recommendation ticket? Can you give me a monthly ticket? Can you order one for all? Can you give me a reward? Not too many, just think about it!"

Chapter 492 Confidant Yang Xiao!

"No, this matter is not as serious as you imagined!" Ying Chang waved his hand quickly and said.

Yang Xiao looked closely at Ying Chang, wanting to hear Ying Chang's next words. After Ying Chang slowed down a bit, he immediately said: "They are Yan people, and they are the enemy of Da Qin. Don't say it's just a misunderstanding. Even if I really took them by force, who can make irresponsible remarks!"

"If the Yan people want to spread this story, let them spread it. As long as I don't admit it, people in the world will think it is a rumor, and it is a rumor. Rumors only stop at the wise. I have made my own merits, so I am afraid of such rumors." Gossip!"
