Uncle Xie's face was pale, and he managed to maintain his composure. His beautiful beard trembled under closer inspection, and the two concubines behind him were also precarious.
If ordinary people saw them, they would have shrunk away in fear and wouldn't talk much.
They have always been so extravagant in Cao Province all these years, and the Emperor Tiangao is far from being talked about. After a long time, even they have forgotten that they are Tu Emperors in Cao Province. When they arrive in the capital, they will not be able to offend any royal relatives. of.
Second Uncle Xie planned to restrain himself when he arrived in the capital, but who knew that it would be so small that he would not die to meet the Ninth Prince, Prince Li.
That's not to mention, the people next to King Li knew the value of their jewelry so clearly that they didn't understand it themselves.
I heard that King Li has not returned to Beijing for seven years, no wonder I don't know him.
He returned to Beijing because he was transferred back to Beijing to take up a post, which was also the result of his elder brother’s operation last year. Because Cao Province was too far away, they started preparations a few months earlier. At that time, King Li was seriously ill, and if he died, he would bring him back, so he didn't notify Uncle Xie.
So Uncle Xie didn't know that the young man next to King Li in front of him not only knew him, but also his nephew.
Xie Er had already stood up, changed his previous haughty attitude, lowered his eyes, bowed his hands and saluted, with a sincere attitude, "I have seen King Li, and I never expected to meet His Highness here. The people below were ignorant and disturbed His Highness, and the officials apologized on their behalf. As for taking away the fat and anointing of the people, this is absolutely impossible. The officials dare to swear by their official hats, and the officials will never dare to do such a thing of exploiting the people. The subordinate officials are like brothers to the common people, wishing to sacrifice their lives for the benefit of the common people, shed their sweat and blood, and accomplish a career.”
Xie Erqin spoke earnestly and sincerely, intending to restore his previous image.
Xie Mingze was almost amused by Xie Er's words, which also shocked Xie Er for a while. He has lived in Cao Province for a long time as a salt transport envoy. Collusion between officials and businessmen has become a source of complaints.But also because of this, it would be difficult to really find out at this moment, not to mention that they are going to Suihuai for disaster relief at the moment, and there is no manpower available, even if they report to Emperor Chu Yin, they can mediate with Xie Xiang.
When the imperial envoys sent to Cao Province, they will inevitably fail to find out, and may never return.
But Xie Er suddenly heard that they were princes, and Xie Mingze's words made Xie Er feel guilty, but once he returned to Beijing, Prime Minister Xie pointed out a thing or two, and when Xie Mingze and the others came back for disaster relief, the day lily was cold.
But I can't get Xie Er for the time being, and it's not impossible to get some benefits.
Xie Mingze sighed, "Master Xie's words moved me quite a bit, but I don't know what the people in Cao Province think."
Xie Er's face changed: mocking, this is mocking!
Xie Mingze continued, "Look at what Master Xie said about serving the people. I'm afraid that the people of Cao Province live and work in peace and contentment like Master Xie. They are dressed in fine clothes, fed and warm, wearing gold and jade, so that they can live at ease. I heard that Sui Huai is Two extremes, once the flood is over, corpses are scattered all over the field, people are displaced, their homes are invaded by the flood, and they don’t have enough food or clothing to keep warm. It’s really a miserable word. How can someone like Mr. Xie be a big fish in the official post? There are so many dishes in the big meat. Of course, I didn’t say that Mr. Xie took away people’s fat and people’s ointment. Mr. Xie, you seem to have scooped up people’s fat and people’s ointment. Of course, it may also be that Mr. Xie’s third and fourth brothers really don’t care about the elder brother who is the prime minister, so they just stick to you Being the second brother...delicious and delicious. Oh, my eyes are wet when I talk about those refugees. They may not even be able to eat a mouthful of hot rice..."
Xie Er Leng heard Chi|Guo|Guo's threat from these words: This is definitely a threat!
Xie Mingze changed the topic, and added: "Of course, I never said that Mr. Xie, you take away the people's fat. After all, my lord is reluctant to eat such a good meal. Maybe Mr. Xie just eats it occasionally? After all, my lord is also thinking about Sui Huai. The common people can't eat well, so they all plan to save, eat, frugal, and use, and donate, one, some, too!"
Xie Mingze bit those words very hard and slowly, so the meaning should not be too obvious.
Xie Eryi initially thought that the other party was threatening to deter him, and planned to punish him severely. Although the outside world had rumors that Li Wang was violent, but when he returned to Beijing three years ago, he heard from his elder brother that this Li Wang was actually the opposite of the rumors. The temperament of working hard for the people is just a battle for the throne, and sacrifices are inevitable.
In this way, in the eyes of King Li, a corrupt official like him must be severely punished.
But who would have thought that when the subject changed, this person...was he reminding him of something?Donate money?
Xie Er finally got a black hat, he couldn't be willing to lose it.
And he has nothing else but a lot of money!
Xie Er felt that he had an epiphany.
Changing from the guilty conscience just now, Xie Er straightened his back a lot, "His Royal Highness is really a good prince, he takes care of the emperor and the people, it's rare that the prince is so worried about the people of Suihuai, so he saves food and money and donates his heart. Although the salary of the lower official is not high, but these years, thanks to the help of the third and fourth younger brothers who are merchants, they still have a little bit of money. They are also willing to do their part for the people of Suihuai. His Highness thinks... How much is appropriate for the lower official to donate ?”
Xie Er also imitated Xie Mingze to highlight the key points. He is not looking for people's fat and people's anointing. He is being helped by others, so can he spend money to buy peace of mind?
Xie Mingze was afraid that he would not be on the road, "Your Highness has always been reticent. I understand when you ask me these questions. Since Mr. Xie wants to worry about the country and the people so much, how much to donate, although it is all based on your heart, but how much you want is also on behalf of Mr. Xie." Really, isn't it?"
Xie Er's heart was throbbing, it seems that this time it won't be solved without spending tens of thousands of taels, "Then?"
Xie Mingze raised his finger, and nodded his chin at the main table before them, "Your table spends nearly 20 taels a year on clothing and jewelry. What's the matter, is it barely enough for a year's worth?"
Not only Xie Er was dumbfounded, but everyone at that table was dumbfounded.
How could they spend so much? This is because they are going to Beijing, so they took out the best clothes!
But how do you say this?No matter how you say this juncture, it seems to be insincere!I don't want to give it!make excuse!
The posthouse and the three in the corner are also silly: ? ? ?Donate two, 20 taels?
Did they listen to an extra ten?
Xie Er didn't expect that this wasn't bleeding, it was massive bleeding.
Xie Mingze blinked innocently, "Master Xie...is this embarrassing? Then..." He turned his head to look at Chu Li, "My lord, look at Mr. Xie, the mansion is willing to spend so much on clothes for a year, but he keeps saying They can all lay down their lives for the people, but in the end, they are still not as good as silver...then how about we..."
"Donate! Please donate!" Xie Er said before Xie Mingze said that he was going to submit a report, just thinking that he would lose money and avoid disaster.
Xie Mingze smiled and narrowed his eyes, "Oh, how can you be so embarrassing?"
Second class Xie: You are obviously very mean!
Xie Er was heartbroken, 20 taels, his net worth has shrunk by half, after all, it was cash, and the cash he brought this time was only 20 taels.
Xie Mingze simply spread his hands, "It's better to hit the sun today, donate now, just let the people present be a witness. Don't be afraid, Mr. Xie, we will make a letter for you, if you donate so much money, the people will support it Yours, we will speak well for you in front of the emperor."
Xie Er didn't want to give it, but who knew that this subordinate of King Li was really shameless, and really asked for it so boldly.
Xie Er glanced at his wife.
The latter has a pale face, 20 taels!Here's all the cash they brought!
Xie Er gritted his teeth: yes.
If King Li really insisted on reporting, his official position would be gone, and he might not even be able to save his life.
Madam and others were still arrogant before, but now they all look like frosted cabbages, wilting, and they are about to go to the capital, who knows that they will meet Wang Li, a dead star.
Mrs. Xie Er asked someone to bring the box over quickly, and the silver bills in the box cost 20 taels.
Although Xie Mingze's handwriting could be read, the original body didn't know many words, so he asked Chu Li to write it. Master Xie donated 20 taels for Suihuai disaster relief, and the Ninth Prince temporarily collected it on his behalf.
When the receipt was given to Xie Er, he looked at the seal on it, and it was indeed King Li.
Thinking that it would be a big deal when he returned to the capital, he asked his eldest brother to find a way for him and then ask the Ninth Prince to come back first.
Xie Er thought about it, so he gave the money first, and after waiting for a few days, thinking of getting closer with the Ninth Prince, he went back to Beijing and immediately went to look for his elder brother.
When Xie Mingze received the banknote, he couldn't take his eyes off the smile, "I'm too embarrassed, it's exactly 20 taels of banknote, no more, no less."
Xie Er forced a smile, "Since King Li is here, the lower officials naturally dare not take the first place, or..."
Xie Mingze took the money and waved his hand, "No need, we just go back to the room and eat." After all, he was afraid that when Xie Er knew his identity and they were going to Suihuai immediately, he would vomit blood.
Xie Mingze immediately walked up to Chu Li, hugged the banknote box tightly, and waved his hand, "My lord, let's go back to the room first, post officer, and the meals will be delivered later."
The post officer and the others are still in a daze: This, this is 20 taels?
They have never seen so many silver notes of 20 taels in their life!
After recovering, he responded repeatedly.
Xie Er watched helplessly as Xie Mingze took King Li's arm:? ? ?What is the relationship between this person and King Li?
When Xie Mingze and Chu Li went upstairs to the prepared wing room, Xie Er swayed and felt his head buzzing when he was supported by others. What?
At this time, Li Si and the others finally packed up and came in. The whole lobby was instantly packed with a group of clattering people. Apart from many lieutenants, there were also a few accompanying officials and soldiers.
They were also taken aback when they saw Xie Er.
One of them, Mr. Tian, the servant of the Ministry of Industry who accompanied him to Suihuai, recognized Xie Er and was surprised, "Mr. Xie, why are you here?"
Xie Er looked at the black and white group of people, and said in a daze, "You... this is?" No, isn't King Li going back to Beijing?Why is Tian Shilang still with these soldiers?Tian Shilang is a Beijing official.
Tian Shilang was very enthusiastic, "Master Xie, don't you know? King Li was appointed as the imperial envoy to Suihuai this time, and we are the officials who accompanied him to help the disaster."
Xie Er's body shook violently, "Go, go to Suihuai for disaster relief?" Could it be that King Li went directly to Suihuai with his money?Then how can he come back?
In the end, this was not the most exciting thing for Xie Er. Tian Shilang thought of Xie Mingze, and became more enthusiastic towards Xie Er, "Yes, speaking of which, the Ninth Prince and Concubine also came together this time. Mr. Xie has met the Ninth Prince Concubine just now, right? Your uncle I haven't seen my nephew for many years, I didn't expect to meet here, and it is really destined."
Xie Er: "?? Ninth Concubine? Uncle and nephew?"
Tian Shilang was surprised, "Master Xie, you don't know? The eldest son of Prime Minister Xie married Li Wang as the Ninth Prince's Concubine some time ago, the one who just came in together."
Xie Er: "..."
Xie Er couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood in his heart, rolled his eyes, and almost fainted from anger, he, was he cheated by his own nephew?
But it killed him!
If ordinary people saw them, they would have shrunk away in fear and wouldn't talk much.
They have always been so extravagant in Cao Province all these years, and the Emperor Tiangao is far from being talked about. After a long time, even they have forgotten that they are Tu Emperors in Cao Province. When they arrive in the capital, they will not be able to offend any royal relatives. of.
