The deficit was more than two hundred taels of silver a month, which was nearly three thousand taels of silver a year.
This amount of money is enough to buy a nice house in Kyoto.
What a vicious blood-sucking insect.
Are they supported by all the taxes in the national treasury?
And they can do it so blatantly, is there someone backing them up?
According to Su Wan, Imperial Concubine Jiang was just one of the people behind the scenes. There must be other princes and nobles, otherwise the country would not be so stable.
The former manager of the Xiwai Palace's Treasure Banknote Bureau seemed to be just a small fry.
However, this matter is indeed tricky. If you touch them, they will definitely clamor for the grace of the late emperor. If Xie Pei touches them, it would be disrespecting the late emperor.
Have you forgotten how you became the crown prince?
If we don't do anything about them, all this money will be wasted on fattening them up?

Give Xie Pei a treasury like this, and various internal and external departments like this.
What a vicious method.
Just wait until Xie Pei can no longer hold on, and then the saint will come out to turn the tide.
However, Xie Pei sneered and pointed to the Bi Guang Mountain in front of him: "Fortunately, I am not poor."
"Let me show you how rich I am."
???
Is this also something you can see?
Is this something she can see?
