After rebirth I became the tyrant's little white lotus

Because of this matter, Emperor Wu's expression was not very good these few days, but Bai Miao noticed it immediately, so he pestered the man and asked what happened in the court to make him unhappy.

"Hmph," Tu Xiuting snorted coldly, "these officials have healed their scars and forgot the pain. After a while, they sprouted in a solid state, re-infected with the extravagance of the past, and each of them went to the Ministry of Households with a high-sounding appearance. Borrowing money to fill the empty holes in their mansion is simply unreasonable!"

Speaking of which, Emperor Wu slapped his palm on the table. He grew up in the cold palace, was used to cold and hungry, and was miserable alone; that is why, although Emperor Wu enjoyed the honor of the emperor after succeeding to the throne, he would not waste money However, who would have thought that the emperor of Dayin was frugal, but the courtiers below are all extravagant, and I am afraid that the treasures accumulated in their mansion can buy another official position up!

"Probably life is too good." Bai Miao shrugged, but he could barely understand.

"It's not like they should be spoiled when the days are better!" Emperor Wu sneered, the temperature in his eyes gradually cooling down, "Yesterday I talked about changing the money of the household department in the early morning, and today the household department gave me the list. , Only a few have paid back the money. Among their IOUs, [-]% of their loans are less than a thousand taels of silver, and the remaining [-]% are all lions, for fear that they will lose their own."

To be honest, Emperor Wu really looked down on their actions, and only felt that it would be worthless to say it.

Bai Miao rubbed his chin, raised his hand and pulled Emperor Wu's cheek, "Don't be angry, Your Majesty, be careful of wrinkles."

The silver-haired young man propped himself up on the table and sat on it, looking down at Emperor Wu. He swayed his little feet and said in a calm manner: "Your Majesty, I think we have to find a way to contain the current situation. Qian, Your Majesty, are you going to collect debts? I remember this happened two years ago."

After a pause, he continued: "The courtiers borrow money from the Ministry of Household Affairs. Apart from maintaining their normal life, where do they generally spend their main expenses?"

Emperor Wu took out a thin piece of bamboo paper from the scroll on one side, put it in his hand and read aloud, "This is the result of the investigation by the Nightmare Dragon Guard - most of the officials' money is spent on their family members, such as Mrs. Clothes, jewelry, rouge and gouache, etc., the young master and the young master are mostly all kinds of expensive things, and moreover, they donate to the academy for private school fees, renovate the mansion, buy Zhuangzi, deeds, etc. in the suburbs..."

Tu Xiuting tossed the bamboo paper aside, "The cost is really fancy."

"That's a lot... Then their annual salary is not enough, no wonder they have to borrow money from the household department."

"Although the national treasury is not empty now, and we can even get new benefits from those royal properties soon, this is not a reason to help the tyrants to abuse their bad habits," Emperor Wu squinted his eyes, tapping his finger bones on the table, as if he was sinking thinking about something.

"Does your majesty have any ideas?" Bai Miao also frowned. It would be easy for parents to control their children's money, but now it's the emperor's money. Although the imperial power is supreme, it's not so easy to start the operation .

Thinking about something in his heart, he slowly played with the silver hair hanging on his chest with his hands.

Emperor Wu, who was originally contemplative, saw a flash of whiteness flash by, and subconsciously chased it with his eyes, and saw that hand was slender, white and slender, with delicate bones, round and smooth fingertips that were slightly pinkish, and there was something between the fingers. The silver hair, like white jade dyed light, is delicate and flawless, but miraculously extinguished the restlessness that Emperor Wu was full of. He just wanted to hold that little hand in his own palm, play with it carefully, rub it, or chase that finger bone all the way. kiss up.

It was very attractive, especially behind that exquisite wrist bone was the dark sleeves, which were lined with snow-white texture, and the fingertips were slender.

Bai Miao was still waiting for Emperor Wu's answer, but after being quiet for a long time, there was no response. When she turned her head to look, she realized that the man's entire gaze fell on the hand that was playing with his hair. His eyes were heavy, and his dark pupils revealed A strong longing.

Someone is probably restless again.

When Bai Miao thought about it, he deliberately moved his hands with the hair hooked, and he saw Emperor Wu's wolf-like eyes following him all the way, wishing to replace the soft hair so that he could go up and lick and suck it.

"Ugh!"

The silver-haired young man sighed deeply, and put his hand in front of Emperor Wu, he said helplessly: "Your Majesty, you will make me look like a demon concubine who will harm the country and the people, and confuse the emperor's heart! You are a beauty! "

Emperor Wu grasped that small hand with a satisfied face. He used his own big hand as a comparison, and Bai Miao's hand was small and delicate, like pearls and jade, unlike Emperor Wu's own hands, which had experienced battlefields The traces are dark and rough, "That's also the demon queen."

"Hey, come on, I don't want to bear that eternal infamy!" Bai Miao rolled her beautiful eyes, and he kicked Emperor Wu's calf with the tip of his shoe, "Your Majesty, it's business, be serious!"

Emperor Wu said that you say what you say, and I listen to me, but it didn't affect him at all when he played with that jade hand.

Helpless, Bai Miao let Emperor Wu play with him, so he could only continue the topic just now, "So, my idea is that we can't always borrow money and collect debts in such a vicious cycle, it's better to think of a once-and-for-all solution, so that we can get rid of it once and for all. Directly curb the source of their extravagant money. If this source can be eliminated, the officials will naturally not want to borrow money from the Ministry of Households when their salaries are sufficient. "

From a long time ago, Emperor Wu did not shy away from Bai Miao when he read the excerpts, and after Bai Miao had the teachings of the left and right ministers and the two brothers of the Chu family, Emperor Wu often spread the excerpts for Bai Miao to read, and discussed with him from time to time Politics, public affairs, even though Emperor Wu actually married Bai Miao as his queen a few days ago, he never cared about the precedent of "the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics".

In Emperor Wu's opinion, everything about him is worth sharing with Bai Miao, including Jiangshan Sheji -- after all, this world is still the dowry of his little lotus!

"I also have this intention." Emperor Wu nodded solemnly, but his fiery lips had already touched Bai Miao's fingertips.

hiss!

The burning sensation made Bai Miao's heart skip a beat, and she wanted to pull her hand away but was clenched even tighter.Unable to break free, he could only give up resentfully, and instead said sharply: "Your Majesty, if you don't take it seriously, I will be angry!"

Although Bai Miao felt fierce, but in the eyes of Emperor Wu, he became a vicious little white cat.

"Okay, listen to Miao Miao." Emperor Wu agreed well, but he refused to let go of the young man's hand, "As you said, it is the best solution to stop this matter from the source."

After pondering for a moment, Emperor Wu pinched Bai Miao's fingertips and continued: "For example, it is the most trouble-free and convenient way to be able to directly control the expenses of officials' mansions."

"Well... that's a way, but you have to think about how to use it..." Bai Miao bit his lip, seeing that Emperor Wu had become serious, he could only try his best to ignore the itching and numbness aroused on his fingertips, and endured it With a serious face, "Perhaps...we can send an accountant to each of their mansions?"

Emperor Wu was taken aback for a moment, even stopping the movement of his hands for a moment.

He raised his eyebrows, not greasy at all, but handsome, "You mean, directly ask Mr. Accountant to supervise the expenses of the official's mansion?"

"That's it! With the accountant specially sent by His Majesty, they naturally don't dare to spend recklessly. After all, every entry and exit will be recorded in the account, and when they are presented to His Majesty, they can be held accountable."

Bai Miao smiled and said: "Let me give you an example, for example, if a third-rank official's house wants to buy eggs, or the expensive jade-patterned eggs, then the accountant can ask the official—everyone eats them." An egg that costs a few pennies, why do adults only eat an egg that costs three taels of silver?"

Speaking of this jade-patterned egg, it is also a luxury product that has been produced in the past two years. It is essentially an ordinary egg. The only difference is that these jade-patterned eggs will be painted with patterns that are not easy to wash off by the seller. Fish, insects, birds and animals can be found there. And the price of these patterned eggs has also risen, from a few pennies at the beginning to three taels of silver now—most of the patterns on such expensive eggs are also from the hands of well-known literati , With such a halo, many people compare themselves to being rich and elegant, so they only buy eggs that cost three taels of silver to show their wealth.

"Or, when the official wife wants to buy new materials to make clothes, there will also be a cashier to supervise at that time—Madam, according to the rules of our adults, we can only support you to buy this year's new Shu brocade, which is definitely not enough to buy the priceless gold thread." Silk!"

Bai Miao felt like she was talking about it, and the countenance on her face imitated the supervisory tone of Mr. Accountant by ten percent.

"Pfft hahahahaha..."

With a puff, Emperor Wu laughed, and he clapped his hands and sighed: "Miao Miao's method is really bad!"

Indeed, the method proposed by Bai Miao can be said to be extremely damaging.Most of the expenses in the officials' mansion are extravagant enjoyment. If the accountant is really sent there, I am afraid that this can curb those bad habits.

"Your Majesty just say it's okay?" Bai Miao raised her head, her face begging for praise so that Emperor Wu almost squeezed the boy's chin and kissed him.

"Good, very good!"

Emperor Wu acted resolutely, and on the second day when he came to the court, he talked about sending accountants to the officials' homes. Hearing this sad news suddenly, half of the officials in the court turned blue. After all, they borrowed money from the Ministry of Households. He knew where all the family money was spent, but now that Emperor Wu had blatantly sent people down, even the most cunning officials could not play tricks on the government's expenses.

However, Emperor Wu also said this with reason and evidence: "I look at the atmosphere of Dayin today, and I see that the extravagance prevails. Avoid extravagance and frugality, and all officials should bear the brunt of it...and for this to be effectively implemented, I will send accountants to each government to help you record the accounts, and hope that all lovers will be sensible and restrain their behavior."

Now that Emperor Wu has said this, what else can the courtiers say?I can only accept it.
