Raiders of the Empress's Runaway Concubine

"Changed your clothes, and followed me to the imperial study to discuss matters." Wu Suoxuan asked Xiaodongzi to pass the decree, and when she turned her head and saw Lai Enyan blinking her eyes and looking at herself with a ghostly face, she suddenly felt emotional. Great, this Lai Enyan gave me a big surprise.

It made me look forward to more surprises from her.I haven't expected anything for a long time.

However, Lai Enyan wanted to run away from Wu Suo's extremely complicated eyes.

"What clothes to change?" Lai Enyan bit the bullet and asked Wu Suo.

"Don't you want to be my Xieyuhua?" Wu Yansue laughed at Lai Enyan's confused appearance. This little girl is indeed a greenhouse flower that was pampered and raised, although she considered things comprehensively. , is also very calm and steady, but the reaction is still a bit slow.

Lai Enyan nodded, yes!Just now I did say that in order not to wait for bedtime!But you didn't say yes!Now you mean that if you didn't say yes just now, that means you acquiesced?

Your heart is unpredictable!

The empress's mind is even more difficult to guess, a woman's heart is originally a needle in the sea, which is hard to see through.

"How can you be a Jieyuhua if you don't follow me? Don't worry! As long as you do it seriously, I won't treat your relatives badly. You are still a virtuous concubine in Fengluan Palace. When you leave Fengluan Palace, you It's the female officer next to me." Wu Suo knew that Lai Enyan, a simple girl, didn't have many entanglements in her heart, and it could be said that she didn't have a sense of responsibility, so she directly offered the bait first.

Lai Enyan lowered her head and looked at her toes. It is of course a great thing to be able to take off this heavy clothes and walk that are not much better than hate the sky. Is there another layer of deep meaning in these words?

She also knew that she must not refuse Wu Suo's proposal, but what was the matter with this faint feeling of being calculated and aggrieved?

"Slave leads the order to thank you." Lai Enyan forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in his heart that was confused about the way forward, and the unexplainable depression that came from the bottom of his heart, almost holding his nose to say such ignorant words.

"Okay, I will save you from kneeling in front of me in the future, and you don't have to act like I have wronged you every time." Wu Sui didn't notice that his current self-proclaimed name had changed It's me, not a high-ranking king claiming to be.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lai Enyan immediately beamed with joy, which was really a surprise, he didn't have to kneel down at every turn, and bowed at every turn.Otherwise, I probably have to learn how to kneel as I watched on TV before, otherwise my knees will be broken sooner or later!

Lai Enyan fluttered back to the dormitory like a happy butterfly dress to change the palace clothes on her body, but Wu Suosuan walked to the front of the map again, with a cold expression on her face.

The little money in the national treasury is not worth mentioning in the face of this war, not to mention that there is still some money set aside for turnover to prevent natural disasters.

Normally, wars require tax increases, but tax increases are putting pressure on the people. The domestic war has only subsided for a few years, and the people have not recovered. Tax increases will undoubtedly shake the foundation of the country, which is what the people want!

Tax hikes won't work either.

Recruiting soldiers also needs to pay settlement fees first, which is not a small sum!

What about donating...

If you can't make decisions on the common people, then you can only make a fuss about the bureaucrats.

The wool comes from the sheep, as the saying goes, it is taken from the people and used by the people!

Officials are plundering the people's fat and anointing. Now that the country is facing a crisis, these people should be allowed to make contributions to the country.

Taking from the people and using them for the people is the right way.

Although those aristocratic families have been working on rectification, but their foundation is too stable, even if they are now the emperor, they still have no way to start, otherwise it will cause chaos in the court, even if they use cruel officials now, they can only be broken down a little bit, It cannot be cleared up all at once.

Perhaps this time, as long as it is properly controlled, it can kill two birds with one stone, which can not only fill the treasury, but also solve the problem of food and wages.

Wu Suo made up his mind, recruited Xiao Luzi to fetch the Four Treasures of the Study, and immediately ordered court officials to make donations for the war with the Western Turks.

Xiao Luzi left with his will, and Wu Suo immediately asked someone to open his private treasury, and took out all the gold, silver and jewels inside.

This is a great move, which means that the emperor Wu Sui will take the lead in donating. You must know that as the king of a country, he has already taken the lead in donating a lot of rare treasures. That's not the case anymore, even if anyone donates less, it is very likely to cause a catastrophe for themselves.

In this way, when the front line needs supplies and military pay, whoever contributes less will be charged with the crime of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country at any time. Regardless of whether it is true or not, as long as the hat is put on, the whole family will be executed without waiting for it to be taken off.

After a period of time, an auction house was quietly opened in the capital. The auction houses in this auction house were all luxury goods that were not seen by the people, as well as some foreign tributes, all kinds of finely crafted gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin , a rare and rare treasure.

It is said that an official saw Yu Ruyi, who had donated to the country as military pay, on the notice board posted at the entrance of the auction house that said the auction items of the day, and was so scared that he went home and fell seriously ill.

This move of Wu Suo's has hurt the officials of the powerful family. Who doesn't know that their family is very rich. Now that the king of a country has opened his private treasury to take the lead in donating, if they donate less, it will definitely cause trouble. The impeachment of officials from poor families has donated too much, and they are really reluctant!

That's all gold and silver!

What is gold and silver?

To put it bluntly, it is the foundation, the foundation!

If a family wants to train future generations of cigarettes, how can they invite famous teachers without gold and silver, and how can they buy good medicinal materials to take care of their bodies without gold and silver?Without gold and silver, how can you make the people who follow you give up!

Wu Suo seemed to have expected the reaction of the sons of Guanyuan's aristocratic family, and then made another decree. This decree is so easy to think too much.

Wu Suo's second will is that everyone donates according to their own strength.Those who donate more will have their names in the credit book, and they will be rewarded together when they defeat the army, and those who donate less will be dedicated.

Anyone who is not a fool can understand what Wu Suo's decree implies.

The so-called donation according to one's own strength means that it is for a powerful family. It is clear that if you beat the powerful family, if you don't bleed your pockets during this donation, I will let your family members bleed.As for any rewards after that, it's just a slap in the face for a sweet date.It makes you feel so painful that you want to die, but you still have to keep a smile on your face. After being tricked, you have to look back and thank the person who tricked you for giving yourself such an opportunity.

To the surprise of all the courtiers, Wu Suiu not only mobilized the court officials to donate, but also mobilized the harem to encourage people in the harem to donate, even if it is good to donate some things that are useless on weekdays, after all, things in the harem , as long as it is left behind, even if it is not so brand new, it is still much better than ordinary people's things.

The thing that shocked people the most was that no one in the harem would have thought that the one who donated the most was Lai Enyan, the daughter of Lai Junchen, the virtuous concubine who had just entered the palace for less than half a year.

Everyone knew that Concubine Xian was lucky enough to enter the palace, and then she was left out in the cold for two months, and then she suddenly monopolized her favor.

But not many people knew that Lai Enyan had done such a great patriotic deed, not only did he not get Wu Sui's approval, but even had a quarrel with Wu Sui because of this matter.

Everything has to start from the time when Wu Yanxuan took Lai Enyan out of the Fengluan Palace bedroom after she changed her palace attire and wore ordinary dresses. , but asked the people of Fengluan Palace to notify the concubines in the harem, and all the unnamed princes to come to Fengluan Palace.

Lai Enyan had a particularly bad premonition at the time, and soon she knew that it was not a premonition, but that she had already been placed in a position, and she couldn't resist yet, so she could only accept it aggrieved.

Wu Suo and Lai Enyan sat in the main hall of Fengluan Palace, and after accepting the greetings from the concubines and sons of the harem, Wu Suo said enough to shake the entire harem, as well as the forces in the harem, "Since you have entered the harem, The palace is my people, my world is peaceful, and you are the ones who are under one person and above ten thousand, otherwise, you are afraid that you will not be able to live or die by yourself. The war has started ahead, and the treasury is empty. I have already ordered people to open my Use the private treasury as military pay. You are my people, and I hope that we can work together, and when the country is in crisis, we can all contribute our meager strength."

Being able to enter the palace originally shows that the power or family he represents is not ordinary. After being able to enter the palace and have lived until now, there is no fool. They are also human beings.

After hearing what Wu Suo said, there is still something I don't understand. This is obviously because His Majesty wants the harem to donate money.If it's just a decree, then everyone is just donating a little bit of meaning. After all, everyone's monthly allowance is on the bright side, and no one can be great for others, and their own life is not enough.

But it's a pity that Wu Sui had thought of this a long time ago, so he called the entry into the palace by name from the beginning, and told them directly to the chariots and horses that they belonged to which faction Wu Sui knew in his heart, but If there is less money in this donation, then there will be no need for those who enter the palace after that.

So the gang of men and women in the harem looked at each other, and began to think that their donation must not be less this time, otherwise they would be suppressed. This time, they have such a good opportunity to show themselves in front of His Majesty. No matter what, you can't miss it. If you want to get His Majesty's attention, then you have to do things beautifully this time.Comparing with each other, the donation from the harem this time is more than half of the donation from the official family.
