After the female officer finished speaking, there was still silence in the court, and everyone looked at Xie Congrong blankly.

Qi Kexiu was the first to come to his senses. He winked at the Minister of Hubu below. The Minister of Hubu immediately stepped forward and started crying, "Your Majesty, there is no money in the treasury, but there is a flood in the south." , Your Majesty is in urgent need of money."

Xie Congrong raised his eyebrows and said, "If you don't have money, just find a way to make money."

The Minister of Household Affairs cried, "Your Majesty, it's hard to make money. I have tried many ways, but I haven't gotten enough."

In order to prevent Xie Congrong from telling the ministers about their donations, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue said in advance, "We ministers have mobilized everyone to donate money. Everyone has donated except for household items. Your Majesty is gone."

"Oh, it seems that everyone is very poor."

Xie Congrong narrowed his eyes and sighed.

In fact, it's not their fault. The whole country of Xuanyu is now very poor, and the little money is concentrated in the hands of a few wealthy businessmen.

But those wealthy businessmen can't do anything casually. They can still pay taxes to their superiors when they make money, but if all their money is taken away and they have no cost to do business, it will become a one-time deal and there will be no more. Followed up.

Xie Congrong blinked and said, "Go ahead and invite Zhang and Su, two wealthy businessmen, to come to the palace to talk."

"Your Majesty, this is not good! You can't use the knife on them."

"Your Majesty, this will make them alienate and leave Xuan Yu Kingdom!"

The ministers became anxious.

If this continues, Xuan Yuguo will really be doomed!

Although they are struggling to go to court now, they don't want to watch the dynasty end in their own hands.

Xie Congrong was too lazy to pay attention to them and only asked the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue to handle the matter.

Once this matter was mentioned, other ministers had nothing to say.

Only Qi Kexiu frowned, his eyes seemed a little disappointed, but he didn't say anything in the end.

He doesn't care how long Xuan Yuguo can live. If the country dies, he can just take Xie Congrong back.

After going to court, Xie Congrong went back to the palace and locked himself in the room for a while, not letting anyone in.

When the news reached Qi Kexiu's ears, he was reviewing the memorial and frowned, then waved his hand, "Let her go."

No matter how clever he was when he was a child, he has been spoiled over the years.

The news spread quickly, and the wealthy merchants were so frightened that they hid their gold all night long and even tried to escape, but they couldn't escape once the city gate was closed.

The Su family is even selling some shops.

"Have you heard that His Majesty asked the wealthy businessmen of the Zhang family and the Su family to send their sons to the palace? Oh my God, if I remember correctly, the Su family's son is already engaged."

"What do you mean, Your Majesty wants both?"

"Who knows, maybe they are short of money and want to take them hostage."

"But if you live in the palace, who knows what will happen?"

The people were talking a lot, but the doors of the Su family and the Zhang family were closed, and the atmosphere seemed particularly heavy.

Xue Qinggui, who was kicked out of the palace gate for the seventh time, was stunned when he heard the news.

Is Xie Congrong going to marry another man?

How is this possible? She clearly promised to be an ordinary couple with him.

Are all those words lying to him?

But why, she left without even getting anything.

Xue Qinggui didn't understand.

After a moment, he gritted his teeth and turned around, knocked on the Su family's door, and never came out again.

Early the next morning, the gate of Zhang and Su's family opened, and the young masters of the two families sat on sedans and were carried into the palace.

After the morning court dispersed, Xie Congrong, led by the female officer, went to the side hall to meet the two young masters.

"Your Majesty has arrived."

"Common people see you, Your Majesty!"

Hearing the sound, Master Zhang Jiashi, who was wearing purple robe, immediately knelt down to say hello.

The other one stood still, with a long body and a handsome face that was cold.

"Xue Qinggui?!"

Xie Congrong was shocked, why is it him!
