After reading the heart milk ball, the cannon fodder family went crazy
Chapter 159 Emperor Ming finally kicked the bucket
Imperial Palace, Wenhua Hall.
The palace servants led Su Youmin and the others to the Su family's seat. As soon as they sat down, Su Zhaozhao looked around impatiently.
At the front of the palace is the position of the emperor and empress. On the left is the queen mother, and on the right is the prince. Further down are the princes and the three princes, and the Su family's position is slightly behind.
It can clearly see the whole audience without attracting attention, which is just right for Su Zhaozhao to enjoy.
But now there are only a few scattered people here, and none of the courtiers who can be called by name have shown up yet.
Soon, the palace maids and eunuchs brought snacks and fruits.
Mrs. Su was worried that Su Zhaozhao was hungry, so she gave her a piece of mung bean cake to cushion her stomach.
After just two bites, the palace attendant led Mrs. Zheng and Zheng Wenxiu in.
What a coincidence, the Zheng family's location is right next to the Su family.
As soon as Mrs. Zheng took her seat, she couldn't wait to greet Mrs. Su and said, "Sister, I didn't expect to see you here. I sent you a message a few days ago, but you said you were unavailable."
"I'm sorry, my family is busy these days, and I really can't spare any time." Mrs. Su said apologetically.
A few days ago, the chicken farm and pig farm signed an agreement with the imperial dining room. From now on, the chickens and pigs in the palace will be provided by the Su family.
In addition, there are many restaurants in the capital, most of which cooperate with the Su family. As a result, chickens and pigs are in short supply these days.
Mrs. Su is busy every day either expanding her chicken and pig farms or looking for high-quality chicken and pig breeds for breeding.
In addition, the duck farm was built ten days ago. While raising ducks, Mrs. Su also tried to breed new duck species. She was very busy all day long.
If possible, Mrs. Su would like to split herself in half and use it.
These things about the Su family are not secrets in the capital, so Mrs. Zheng understood them immediately.
"Old sister, you are now His Majesty's first-class Anyuan Marquis wife. How can you raise chickens yourself? These matters will be left to my servants to take care of. If you don't have anyone suitable for you, I can introduce you to a few. ." Mrs. Zheng said sincerely.
Mrs. Su smiled and said gratefully: "I appreciate your kindness, but I'm used to doing these things. It's boring to be bored at home all day, so I might as well keep doing it."
"If you are bored at home, just have fun for yourself. You are raising chickens and pigs, so don't break your body." Mrs. Zheng dissuaded her.
"I've tried all these, but none of them suit me." Mrs. Su smiled and shook her head.
Before the chicken farm was built, Mrs. Su was bored at home, so her servants suggested going to have tea and listen to a play. If not, they could also go to worship Buddha.
Mrs. Su tried it for two days. Let alone the tea, she didn't even listen to much of the drama, let alone worship the Buddha.
Ever since she learned from Su Zhaozhao's heart that there were no gods in the world, Mrs. Su had taken a dim view of praying to gods and Buddhas.
She would go to a temple and pay homage, but she couldn't do it all day long at home chanting sutras and worshiping Buddha. With this free time, she might as well raise two more chicks.
So after experiencing these things, the people she admires most now are the official wives like Mrs. Zheng.
After decades of drinking tea and watching movies, they never get tired of it!
Mrs. Zheng: Is it possible that we are also tired, that’s why there are so many banquets!
Mrs. Zheng sighed silently in her heart, enviing Mrs. Su for being able to do what she likes regardless of other people's eyes.
Over the years, she had forgotten what she liked.
While the two were chatting, Su Zhaozhao and Zheng Wenxiu also started chatting next to them.
However, Zheng Wenxiu asked if it was delicious while feeding it. Su Zhaozhao did not only eat it, but also replied that it was delicious.
After a while, Su Zhaozhao's stomach was full, and the banquet finally began.
After the emperor's relatives and courtiers arrived, the emperor, empress and queen mother arrived belatedly.
After a simple salute, Emperor Ming exempted everyone from paying tribute.
After Emperor Ming said a few words, the palace banquet officially began.
The palace people filed in with delicacies, and then a group of dancers came and danced to the music.
Soon, the atmosphere at the scene was ignited, and the courtiers began to exchange glasses. Even Su Youmin was toasted by the people next to him.
After a while, the dance ended.
Jiang Lianying clapped her hands, and the dancers bowed and left.
The officials knew that Emperor Ming had something to say, so they returned to their seats and sat upright.
Seeing that the palace was quiet, Emperor Ming's majestic voice sounded.
"Dear dear friends, today is the Dragon Boat Festival, which should be a day for the whole country to celebrate. However, there were floods in Yuanzhou a few days ago, causing hundreds of thousands of people to be affected and 30,000 people to become homeless. I have sent people to open a warehouse. We are trying to provide disaster relief, but unfortunately the treasury is empty, and the disaster has become more serious in the past few days. As the emperor, I can’t sleep and eat well just watching the people suffer. I wonder if you, dear ministers, have any good ideas to solve this problem?"
Without waiting for the courtier to speak, Zheng Wenchang took the lead and knelt down in the center of the hall, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, as an official of the imperial court, Wei Chen should take the safety of the people as his own responsibility. Wei Chen is willing to donate three years of his salary for disaster relief!"
Emperor Ming said three good words in a row and praised: "Zheng Aiqing cares about the people of the world and deserves to be rewarded. I have decided to build a merit monument in the Ancestral Temple and write down the people who donated this time so that they can enjoy the incense for generations. As for the order of names, they will be based on the amount of donation. Let’s decide whether it’s high or low, what do you all think?”
Taishi Cui and others cursed in their hearts. He had obviously discussed it with Zheng Wenchang, but he asked them how they were doing. Wasn't he just trying to force them to donate?
But when they were forced to do so, Emperor Ming was able to defeat the enemy.
"Your Majesty is wise. I think this is feasible. I am willing to donate 500,000 taels of silver to help the victims tide over the disaster." Master Cui stood up and saluted.
He is not interested in money, but the first name on the merit monument must be him!
"Your Majesty, what the Grand Master said is exactly what Wei Chen thought. Wei Chen is willing to donate 550,000 taels of silver." Taifu Lu stood up and saluted.
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Cui exclaimed in his heart that he had been fooled!
Half an hour ago, Zheng Wenchang quietly told him that Taifu Lu's budget was 450,000 taels, and now it was suddenly 50,000 taels more than him. He must be trying to squeeze him!
In an instant, Grand Master Cui said without thinking: "Your Majesty, the disaster is serious. I am willing to donate another hundred thousand taels of silver."
Taifu Lu looked at Taishi Cui angrily, the first name on the merit monument is mine!
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to donate another hundred thousand taels of silver." Taifu Lu said.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to donate another hundred thousand taels!" Master Cui said through gritted teeth.
"Your Majesty, I am also willing to donate another hundred thousand taels!" Taifu Lu said without thinking.
If you want to dominate my Lu family, just dream!
Taishi Cui and Taifu Lu came and went, and the amount of donations each reached one million taels.
