Chapter 869 Dedicated to the Imperial Court

The Marquis of Ning'an said, "Your Majesty, let me ask you one more question. Could it be that there are still many lychee trees planted by that person, so His Majesty has lifted the ban on the sale of lychees in the capital?"

"exactly."

The minister of households, Ju Kaiji, suddenly came out and said sternly, "I dare to ask Your Majesty, is this lychee planted by ordinary people?"

"Yes."

Ju Kaiji was instantly overjoyed and said with a serious expression: "Your Majesty, this lychee has been a tribute since ancient times, and only princes, generals, ministers, and nobles are eligible to eat it. Even in the south, it is under the control of the imperial court. The minister believes that it is really inappropriate for ordinary people to freely buy and sell lychees in the capital."

Wei Jingxuan gave Ju Kaiji a meaningful look, sneered to himself, and stopped looking at him.

Helian Rongjiu's complexion suddenly became extremely cold, and his voice was cold: "Oh? What's your opinion?"

Ju Kaiji lowered his head, not noticing that Helian Rongjiu had changed his face at all, and said, "Your Majesty, Wei Chen believes that that person should dedicate all the lychee trees to the imperial court, which will be under the unified management of the Ministry of Household. Except for the fruits that are supplied to Your Majesty and the clans, the rest will be organized and sold by the Ministry of Households, and the money will be used to subsidize the expenditures of the Ministry of Households."

"Then you mean to let the people work for nothing? Give up the hard-earned lychee tree for nothing?"

Ju Kaiji didn't take it seriously and said: "Since that person can grow lychees, he should be a talent, and he must not be left busy. The court is in need of such talents. Your Majesty can reward them and give them to the Shangnong Bureau. He arranged positions so that he would help the Shangnong Bureau in the future and plant more rare and precious fruit trees. To be able to do things in the Shangnong Bureau, big or small, can be regarded as a small official, and it can be regarded as a compliment for that person. "

"What if that person doesn't want to? What if that person's family relies on these fruit trees for a living?"

Ju Kaiji thought that the emperor had listened to his suggestion, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty can see the tree he planted is already a blessing from his tenth generation, the entire Xuanqing Kingdom belongs to His Majesty, and what he planted , of course, it is also His Majesty's, as long as His Majesty decrees, how can he be willing or not?"

Helian Rongjiu laughed in anger, and said, "Very good, Lord Ju really thinks of me. As expected of the Minister of the Household, I don't miss any opportunity to increase revenue for the state treasury."

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty, this is what Wei Chen should do."

Helian Rongjiu looked at the other courtiers coldly: "You think the same as Lord Ju?"

The minister of the household department said: "Wei Chen feels that what Lord Shang Shu said is very true. People are divided into high and low. in the hands of ordinary people."

"What about other people's opinions?"

The Marquis of Ning'an cautiously glanced at the emperor's expression, and said respectfully, "Listen to His Majesty's holy will."

Prime Minister Suo also said: "Listen to His Majesty's holy will."

"My minister agrees."

"My minister agrees."

"..."

Helian Rongjiu's face softened, and Ju Kaiji suddenly thought of something, feeling that today was a rare opportunity, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I have this minister as well."

"speak."

Ju Kaiji said: "Your Majesty, have you heard of Zhi Ye Zhai, who is very famous in the capital recently?"

"Such a famous shop, of course I have heard of it."

"Then Your Majesty should know that the fruits and vegetables that Zhiye Zhai sells are very special, right?"
