"Your Majesty, you canceled the draft and we got married directly. There will definitely be many memorials to impeach you..." Lin Lixia didn't finish her words.

He was directly interrupted by Ji Shen: "I'm not afraid..."

Lin Lixia stretched out her white and tender fingers and pressed them against Ji Shen's lips.

"Listen to what I have to say."

"..." Ji Shen smiled and grabbed Lin Lixia's hand.

"You say it and I listen."

Looking at Ji Shen's affectionate eyes, Lin Lixia's eyes became gentler.

"We live together as husbands and wives, and I, like you, will fine myself a million taels of silver and transfer it to the national treasury from my dowry."

"..." Ji Shen's pupils dilated in joy for a moment, "Lin Lixia, what did you say, say it again."

"I will fine myself a million taels of silver..."

"That's not it."

"I transferred money from my dowry to the country..."

"That's not the case." Ji Shen couldn't wait.

"Lin Lixia, I want to hear you say it again, let's have sex as husband and wife."

"... Let's live together as husbands and wives." Lin Lixia couldn't hold back the smile on her lips.

Just saying "the husband sings and the wife follows" made Ji Shen so happy.

After the two get married, if Ji Shen settles old scores and calls her husband, will it be easy to reconcile them?

This is so coaxing!

"You donate one million taels to the national treasury, and I will also donate one million taels to the national treasury."

"In the future, if any minister talks about our marriage, you will complain that people's livelihood is suffering and the national treasury is empty. Either they donate money, or they shut up!"

"What a wonderful move you have!" Ji Shen's eyes lit up. Why didn't he think of it earlier?

If he had thought of it earlier, his treasury would have been much fuller.

"Lin Lixia, you don't need to pay for this money, just take it out of my account."

"That won't work! Paper can't contain the fire." Lin Lixia refuted Ji Shen's words with a smile.

"Only by deducting money from my account can they stop their thoughts of sending their daughter to the palace."

"Most of the ministers in the court sent their daughters to the palace for the benefit of the family."

"Before we even start to benefit, we have to put millions of taels of silver into the national treasury. Are they willing?"

Ji Shen laughed softly: "Even if they are willing! Not many people have your financial resources!"

Hearing this, Lin Lixia's heart tightened, she was really afraid that someone would imitate her.

"How about I donate two million taels?"

Seeing that Lin Lixia was nervous about him, Ji Shen was filled with joy: "Don't you feel sorry for Yin Zi?"

"To monopolize such a good thing like you." Lin Lixia stood up on tiptoes and kissed Ji Shen's lips: "Don't spend too much money!"

Hearing this, Ji Shen was filled with joy, clasping Lin Lixia's waist and deepening the kiss that came to her.

After a while, he let go of Lin Lixia, breathing erratically.

"Lin Lixia, there is no need to donate two million taels of silver. I will grant marriages to anyone with this financial resources in the past few days."

"..." Lin Lixia's eyes were filled with astonishment, feeling that this move was a bit damaging.

"Will it increase the hatred value?"

"I know it well!" Several lists flashed through Ji Shen's mind.

There are only a handful of ministers in the capital who can spend millions of taels of silver.

Their daughters are all famous ladies in the capital. Only one of them entered the harem of his eldest brother in his previous life.

The few remaining married men happened to have crossed paths with him, so just let them renew their relationship.

Thinking of renewing their relationship, Ji Shen's eyes turned cold and he turned his head to look at Lin Lixia.

In her previous life, Lin Lixia had never left Linjia Village and had no interaction with him. Who was the husband she married?

When he thought about Lin Lixia getting married to someone else, he felt jealous.

"Lin Lixia, if you hadn't met me back then, who would you have married?"

Lin Lixia's eyes were filled with astonishment.

Why is Ji Shen so crazy?

"How can I assume something that didn't happen? Isn't this causing trouble for myself?"

"..." Ji Shen gritted his teeth, his mouth feeling bitter and uncomfortable.

He must be crazy!

With memories of her past life, but not knowing who Lin Lixia married in her past life?

I always want to think about this answer.

But when he thought that Lin Lixia had been married to someone else, he wanted to find that person and kill him!

"Lin Lixia, let's get married as soon as possible!" Ji Shen hugged Lin Lixia tightly in her arms.

Only when Lin Lixia was by his side, he would try his best to restrain the violence in his heart.

Sensing that Ji Shen's mood was not right, Lin Lixia hugged him back tightly: "You're not sleeping, okay, go to my room and have a good sleep!"

"...Go to your room?" Seeing Lin Lixia nodding, Ji Shen's eyes were full of joy.

Lying on Lin Lixia's bed, the fresh and delicious floral fragrance makes you feel like you are in a sea of ​​flowers.

He closed his eyes and felt every part of his body relax, and he fell asleep quickly.

When I woke up, I felt refreshed. It was dark outside and the breeze was slightly cool.

He pushed open the door.

I saw a secret guard guarding the door.

"Where is she?"

"Reporting to your Majesty, Miss Lin is in the study!" The secret guard paused and said, "Your Majesty, there is still an hour before the morning court meeting!"

"I actually slept for so long?" Ji Shen frowned. The sky was pitch black with no stars or moon: "Go back to the palace!"

In the morning, Ji Shen asked the Ministry of Rites to prepare for his wedding, but several ministers immediately opposed it.

"Your Majesty, since the founding of the Dragon Scale Nation, the queen has been selecting candidates through layers of screening."

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Zuo is right. You have chosen a fifth-grade military general as your queen at will. This is breaking the palace rules of the Dragon Scale Kingdom!"

"Your Majesty, what the right minister said is absolutely true. You skipped the draft and directly determined the candidate for the queen. I am not convinced!"

"Your Majesty, the mother of a country commands hundreds of officials and their families. This is a matter of concern to the country, the country, and the country. This is not a child's play!"

"Your Majesty, I second the proposal!"

"Your Majesty, I second the proposal!"

"..."

Sixty percent of the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty stood up to oppose Ji Shen's passing of the draft and made Lin Lixia his queen.

There are still 40% standing still.

Among the 40%, some are close followers of Ji Shen, some are allies of the Luo family, and some are unmarried daughters in the family.

Ji Shen sat on the dragon chair, his eyes falling on the courtiers who opposed him.

"Prime Minister Zuo, have you arranged for the victims of the snowstorm in the north to be rescued?"

"Right Prime Minister, there have been floods in the south in previous years. Have you thought of any countermeasures this year?"

"Secretary of the Ministry of War, have the armors and sabers of the Zhenbei Army and the Zhennan Lord been prepared?"

"Secretary of the Ministry of Finance, have you raised enough military pay for the Zhenbei Army and the Zhennan Army this year?"

The Minister of Household Affairs lowered his head in embarrassment and said: "To report to the Emperor, the treasury is not full!"

"Say it again!" Ji Shen looked at the Minister of Hube with a blank expression.

The Minister of Household Affairs trembled and said: "I am reporting to the Emperor that the national treasury is not full!"

Ji Shen sneered.

"My dear friends, have you heard this? The national treasury is not full!"

"The victims in the north, the victims in the south, and the soldiers stationed at the border, which one does not need the support of the national treasury?"

"As the king of a country, how can I be extravagant and wasteful in drafting a draft at a time like this?"

"My people are still suffering, my soldiers are still waiting for military pay, and I am extravagant and wasteful in drafting. What is the difference between me and a foolish king??"

"Since I took the throne, I have focused exclusively on state affairs. I just want my people to have enough food to eat, wear warm clothes, and live and work in peace and contentment!"

"My dear friends, is it really wrong for me not to waste so much money on the draft?"
