Chapter 769

Someone raised an objection and said, "Your Majesty, it is important to manage the flooding of the Wei River, but the war in northern Xinjiang a few years ago has left the treasury empty, and the treasury has only eased a little in the last two years.

The July month is approaching, and military salaries will also be allocated everywhere. Is it inappropriate to spend all the money on the flood control of the Wei River? "

At this time, someone stood up and agreed, and said, "Sir, Modong Mausoleum is still under construction. I'm afraid it still needs a lot of money. This can't be stopped midway, right?"

After that, more ministers came forward and seconded.

But how could King Yu let the silver in his mouth run away: "Those things can be slowed down, don't you have the heart to see the people along the Weihe River displaced due to floods, and you have the heart to see the fields on both sides of the river turn into a vast ocean when there is a flood, with no grains. receive?"

For a while, no one spoke again in the courtroom. Who can afford this infamy? Now that's all right, even the sage can no longer speak back.

King Yu is a well-known person. Since the day he made a speech in the courtroom, he went to the household department next court, and only left after inquiring about everything he wanted to know.

Today, in front of everyone, he just opened his mouth, but this village doesn't have this store.

It was the golden mouth of the saint, and the matter was settled like this.

Those high-ranking officials did not listen to the persuasion of the saint, and secretly shook their heads and sighed in their hearts.

King Yu arrived at the Ministry of Household in the early morning, and now he can't wait to get the money.

In the imperial study room, Prime Minister Deng Huancheng was discussing matters with the sage: "Sir, before, you asked the Ministry of Household to allocate 500,000 taels to Lord He to build ships and form a maritime force.

You also read the memorial that you and your lord sent back to Beijing a few days ago. If you can't continue to transfer money, all the previous efforts will be in vain.

But right now, after the state treasury spent the five million taels of silver, there was less than one million taels left. The Modong Mausoleum was still under construction. Wei Chen asked, and it would cost at least 300,000 taels to complete.

The He-sama side can't keep replying all the time. In this way, the Ministry of Household's side may be under a lot of pressure. Once the treasury is empty, there will be a big problem. "

Saint Mo Yuxi rubbed his eyebrows impatiently: "July is about to enter, and the summer tax will be paid in late July and early August, which will naturally fill the treasury."

Although the Prime Minister didn't want to upset the Sage, he still opened his mouth and said: "Before, it rained for half a month in the area of ​​Pingzhou, and the damage was not small. However, when Beiyuan City went north to the northern Xinjiang, there was a shortage of water and rain during spring sowing, and the seedlings emerged. It’s not very good, the harvest will definitely be affected, and this year’s tax, whether it’s summer tax or autumn tax, will be affected.”

The sage didn't like to hear this the most, and said a little displeased: "The Prime Minister doesn't need to worry about things that haven't happened yet."

Deng Huancheng didn't expect that the sage would say such a thing, and he couldn't believe it, but seeing the expression on the sage's face, he obviously didn't want to talk about it, so he also stopped.

In a flash, it was the fifth day of July.

After dinner, Jing Rui supported Yun Yi for a walk in the courtyard, and the couple returned to the house.

Wen Zhu brought hot water in, Jing Rui sent the people out, and washed Yun Yi's feet by himself.

In my last life in space, I watched a lot on TV. It's not ashamed for a man to wash his woman's feet, but he still didn't want people to see it, so he sent all the maids out.

But Yun Yi suddenly said: "Jing Rui, I want to go into the space to take a shower."

Jing Rui knew what Yun Yi was afraid of, so he followed her into the space. After the waiter-in-law took a bath and cleaned up, he went into the bathroom to take a cold shower. This was really both happiness and pain.

After taking a cold shower, he saw his daughter-in-law wearing a short, bare-legged silk skirt from later generations, and her fair, delicate and slender calves came into view. Well, his cold shower was considered white, and his whole body became hot again.

I had to walk over: "Yi Er, how about we change clothes?"

Yun Yi looked at him puzzled: "Why?"

After Jing Rui took a deep breath: "In the past few days, you may start at any time. It's not good for outsiders to see it wearing this."
