Chapter 311 Who dares to be greedy!!



After finishing his meal, Yuchi Xi stopped practicing.

She felt she should balance work and rest.

Lu Feiyu still wanted to continue practicing and asked Yuchi Xi if it was okay. Yuchi Xi naturally had no objection and told them to practice if they wanted to.

She was flipping through the account book Jing Huaian handed to her.

These were earned from selling pearls. Yuchi Xi looked at the amount of money, then looked up at the sky and divided the money into two parts. One part was sent to the border to provide extra meals for the soldiers, and the other part was sent to the refugee area to buy them cotton clothes and rice and flour.

In this way, they can survive this cold winter.

Yuchi Xi thought that if she told her father about this, he would definitely not want to use her money.

So she simply asked Jing Huaian to go to the Ministry of Revenue and ask him to give the money to the Minister of Revenue, so that the Minister of Revenue would directly allocate the funds.

Hehe, this way daddy won’t know.

After Yuchi Xi had a chat with Jing Huaian, Jing Huaian went outside the palace to get the silver and money, and then went to discuss the matter with the Minister of Revenue.

After hearing what Jing Huaian said, the Minister of Revenue couldn't help but raise his lips happily, "Little Princess, you are so righteous!!"

"Master Jing, please thank the little princess on my behalf!"

"Please rest assured, little princess, we will definitely send this money in the name of the little princess!"

"No one will impersonate me!"

“No one is allowed to embezzle.”

Jing Huaian hummed lightly and said calmly, "The little princess said that if anyone dares to embezzle this money, they will be beheaded."

Minister of Revenue:!!!

If this were said by another princess or prince, he would not believe it, but if it was said by the little princess, he would believe it and would definitely do it...

The Minister of Revenue said solemnly, "Don't worry, all this money will reach the hands of those who need it, without missing a cent!"

Who dares to be greedy?

Isn’t this asking for death!

Jing Huaian nodded slightly, "The money is all here, please count it."

The Minister of Revenue immediately sent someone to count the items, and after confirming that everything was correct, Jing Huaian left.

The Minister of Revenue immediately classified the silver and money according to Yuchi Xi's instructions.

Meanwhile, in the Imperial Palace, the Minister of War was talking to someone. The person asked him, "Are you going to the Ministry of Revenue to withdraw money again?"

The Minister of War looked slightly embarrassed and said, "Yes."

"We've recruited quite a few new recruits this year. They're all growing up, so they eat a lot."

The man said with a face full of ridicule, "Minister of War, our imperial army is not a place to raise children. We want to raise soldiers!"

“Not having enough to eat is a common thing!”

"If you make sure they're all full, what else will we eat?"

The Minister of War frowned, "They are all people who defend their country. If they don't eat enough, how can they have the energy to practice? How can they resist foreign enemies if they don't practice?"

"If you don't resist foreign enemies, how can you be an official here?"

The man's expression instantly turned ugly, "Humph!"

"Then go to the Minister of Revenue and see if he will give you the money!"

"You don't know what's good for you!"

After saying that, he left in a hurry with a cold face.

The Minister of War is an upright person and speaks directly. Many people can't stand his temper.

But the Minister of War thought what he said was right.

If it weren't for the soldiers fighting in the front, how could they have such a peaceful life?

Why do they assume that the soldiers must not have enough to eat?

Why should the soldiers save their rations to give them to them?

The Minister of War walked to the door of the Minister of Revenue's residence with a heroic and confident look. When he saw the plaque on the residence, he swallowed his saliva and felt a little nervous.

The Minister of Revenue is so unforgiving with his words.

Every time I apply for military pay, there is a heated debate.

The Minister of War prepared himself mentally for a long time, gritted his teeth, and stepped in.

"The Minister of War is here."

The servants in the Minister of Revenue's mansion also recognized him and greeted him with a smile.

"Our master is in the study."

The Minister of War nodded slightly, "Do you want to go and inform them?"

The servant shook his head and said with a smile, "Our master said that if you come, we should invite you over immediately."

Invite him over?

The Minister of War's uneasiness became more and more obvious.

What is this Ministry of Household Affairs doing?

Why would you want to invite him over?

Hongmen Banquet?

I didn't even see this banquet.

Moreover, he was just a poor man, and it seemed that there was nothing that the Minister of Revenue could be concerned about.

Thinking of this, the Minister of War relaxed and said, "Okay, I'll go over then."

The Minister of War walked quickly towards the study of the Ministry of Revenue.

He was more familiar with this road than his own home.

When he arrived, he saw the Minister of Revenue counting the silver and money with a list, which was divided into boxes.

The Minister of War swallowed his saliva.

Good, so much money!

Where did so much money come from?

It’s not time to collect taxes yet!

Besides, hasn't the emperor exempted many places from taxes? How can there be so many taxes?

The Minister of War's pupils trembled.

"You, you, you're not greedy for money, are you?!"

After much thought, this is the only explanation!

It's over.

The shameless old Minister of Revenue actually invited him over to see the place. Did he want him to become a 'partner'?!

insidious!

So insidious!

Hearing his voice, the Minister of Revenue raised his eyes and looked at him, his face darkening, "What are you talking about here?"

"That's no nonsense!"

"My money is clean!"
