Chapter 129: The Sixth Sister is Such a
The proliferation of bad money has far-reaching consequences.
At first, there was inflation and bad money driving out good money, and then there was a crisis of confidence in currency, with the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer.
From that point on, the impact becomes unpredictable.
If market prices rise and the purchasing power of copper coins in people's hands decreases, and people are suffering so much that they have to sell their land, become tenants, or sell themselves into slavery, will they still not have enough to eat?
What if it affects the army, and the soldiers fight their lives but find that their families still don’t have enough to eat?
Therefore, the bad currency case must be investigated, and thoroughly investigated, to obtain irrefutable evidence.
Qin Zhaoyue knew this and knew that he couldn't refuse this matter.
She sighed and slowly took out a small leather bag from her arms.
After untying the cowhide, tung oil cloth and oil paper, a stack of silver bills was revealed.
This small cowhide bag was always kept close to my body and tied securely, so it was not lost even when it was washed away by a flood.
Ten thousand taels each, exactly thirty bills, were slammed on the table with a "thump".
"Eldest sister, I found this at the gate of the Chiyan County Government Office. It's perfect for disaster relief."
Qin Zhaoqiong was stunned. They were talking about the case of counterfeit currency, why did they bring up this?
She had heard about this matter, but she had forgotten about it because she was busy. The food that the court had previously raised was enough.
There is still some gap in the funds for subsequent reconstruction and embankment repair, but there is no rush.
Since her sister mentioned it, she just accepted it.
"Sixth sister is so thoughtful." Qin Zhaoqiong was about to take it as she said this, but she couldn't pull it out when she pressed it on the banknote.
Their eyes met and they were speechless for a moment. Qin Zhaoyue finally let go.
"Bad Currency Case..."
"I can't investigate." Qin Zhaoyue retracted her gaze. "I'm only responsible for official business. I received the imperial decree and am only responsible for disaster relief. I can't investigate anything else."
this……
Qin Zhaoqiong was troubled for a moment when she saw her sixth sister with her eyes lowered and no sign of laughter.
Zhao Yue had come up with a lot of ideas during the previous theft and assassination.
When he was in Mingyan County, he took the risk to personally treat critically ill patients, and after he was poisoned and fell into a coma, he stepped forward to take charge of the situation.
This shouldn't be the case. Why would you refuse so decisively at this time?
Suddenly, she heard a voice and was stunned.
"Your Highness, the Sixth Prince's point is to keep business as usual."
These are Yinzhe's words.
"That's right, just hand in the amount you embezzled. That's how we handle things."
These are Liu Yan's words.
There was a moment of silence in the room. The atmosphere was not as solemn as before, but seemed a little weird.
How is that possible! Qin Zhaoqiong exchanged glances with the two of them.
She understood the meaning of these words, and precisely because she understood them, she did not believe them.
Yes, Sixth Sister is a little lazy and playful, but she would never be like this when faced with major issues!
Liu Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes, put his hands in his pockets and stopped transmitting the message.
After a long time, Qin Zhaoqiong thought about it again and again, and finally took action.
She took out two banknotes from the stack and put them back, just half a palm away from the sixth sister's hand.
Without any excuses, scolding or questions, my sister just sat there.
Qin Zhaoqiong's eyes trembled. It was actually... actually... true!
Three, four, five...
As the banknotes piled up, there was still no response.
Qin Zhaoqiong stopped moving until the tenth piece was distributed, and there was no further movement for more than ten breaths.
At this time, she saw her younger sister turned her head to look at her, "What do you mean, elder sister?"
Qin Zhaoqiong swallowed and spoke again after a long while.
"Sixth sister found... 200,000 taels of silver at the gate of the Chiyan County government office. She has handed it all over to me for disaster relief."
Qin Zhaoyue tilted his head and looked at the other person intently.
His lips were tightly pursed and his face was tense.
I never expected that her upright elder sister could actually say such words. It's really not easy.
With raised eyebrows, Qin Zhaoyue looked at the remaining three people in the field.
Yinzhe lowered his head, Liuyan put his hands in his pockets and looked up, not knowing what was on the beam, but staring at it, as if he could see a flower.
Only Canglan met her gaze, but he immediately looked away, tilting his head and not looking at her.
Qin Zhaoyue twitched the corners of his mouth, slowly stood up and walked in front of Liu Yan.
"Liu Yan Qian Hu? Liu Yan Qian Hu! Handsome old man? Don't get involved?"
Liu Yan's cheeks twitched, and he sighed secretly, but still lowered his head that was looking up at the beams, "I am here."
The curve of her mouth became more and more obvious, and Qin Zhaoyue looked straight into his eyes. "Hiss... Why did I hear that Xuanji Guard didn't have such a rule?"
Flowing Flame: ...
How many chapters have passed, why is the Sixth Princess still holding a grudge...
As the saying goes, when the water is too clear, there will be no fish. Actually, it’s not that there are no fish at all.
But that was a tacit understanding among all the colleagues. How could I tell the princess? Was I crazy?
What's more, the proportion that the Sixth Princess asked for at that time was too unreasonable. She wanted to take the lion's share of the 300,000.
Is that still a rule? That's fatal.
"Your Highness the Sixth Prince, what rules are you talking about? I don't understand.
If you ask me, His Highness the Sixth Prince deserved two hundred thousand and paid two hundred thousand. He is truly a man of high moral character and a role model for us!"
Liu Yan had disagreed before, firstly because the asking price was too high, and secondly because the amount was too large, and he really didn't dare to take the risk.
It’s different now. His Highness endorsed it personally, and it wasn’t his share. He was just a witness at most, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
"Oh? A noble and upright person."
"Yes, that's very noble!"
Qin Zhaoyue raised his proud head slightly, walked back slowly and sat down again, taking away the 100,000 taels of silver notes in his hand.
First wrap it with oil paper, then wrap it with tung oil cloth, and finally wrap it in a small cowhide bag and stuff it into the arms.
She could see that one hundred thousand taels was her elder sister's bottom line, otherwise she wouldn't have paused for so long.
Asking for money is one thing, one hundred thousand taels is not a small amount, the most important thing is to touch the bottom line of the eldest sister.
It's fine to give her some advice behind the scenes, but she's always asked to investigate cases, and they're all serious and fatal cases. She can't just not make any contribution, right?
Yes, the eldest sister is the most likely to compete for the throne, so we must befriend her, and even give her some credit and help her along the way.
But if you continue like this for a long time, it will give them the impression that you can entrust everything to yourself, which is not a good thing.
Even if there is a great cause, Qin Zhaoyue will have to pay a price to get things done.
I've hit my bottom line and it's hard to bear. Next time something happens, I'll think more about it.
Instead of just talking about doing it for the people and for the country, he sent her into danger.
Why? Because of her broad knowledge and clever mind?
Qin Zhaoyue naturally knew that the bad currency case had shaken the country's foundation, and he also knew that this case must be investigated.
Her identity as the Sixth Princess of Dagan was there, and she couldn't get rid of it at all, but it was time to set the rules in her mind.
She doesn't want that position, so why does she always take risks for nothing?
"Thank you, Sister. Let's talk about investigating the case."
Qin Zhaoqiong's forehead veins throbbed: This is actually the Sixth Sister...
