"What?"
"Tu Shanze has become a eunuch!"
Hearing the news, Yun Yaoyao was so shocked that she almost dropped the incense in her hand.
Seeing the suspicious look from the monk not far away, Yun Yaoyao immediately regained her composure and put the incense on the incense burner.
In the Buddhist hall, Yun Yaoyao put her hands together, bathed in the sound of the Sanskrit Buddha, and made a wish.
"I hope I will never grow old or die, I hope I will never get sick, I hope I will always have endless money, I hope..."
Tu Shanjin beside him couldn't help but twitching his lips slightly when he heard these wishes: "This is a wish, not a dream."
Being interrupted, Yun Yaoyao glanced at him unhappily: "You have food on your teeth."
Tu Shanjin:?
He had white porridge for breakfast, how could there be vegetables?
Thinking this in his heart, Tu Shanjin silently picked up a stick of incense again, raised his hands above his head and pretended to pray. With his sleeves covering his face, he used his tongue to dig at his teeth crazily.
How can he, who is a majestic ninety-five-year-old man, have food in his teeth?
After the two prayed, they left the Buddhist hall. When they saw another familiar person entering the Buddhist hall opposite, Yun Yaoyao quickly called the monk to ask.
"Why did they come here?"
The monk respectfully replied: "Reporting to the donor, the donor and the others come to Mingguang Temple several times a year, all to ask for heirs."
Yun Yaoyao remembered.
Yun Liang had no other children except her and Yun Yanyan's two daughters. Wanting a son had always been his obsession.
For this reason, he consulted many famous doctors, and even concubines kept bringing him into the back house, but he never had any heirs.
The problem lies with Yun Liang, he can't do it.
But more than ten years ago, Yun Yaoyao and Yun Yanyan were born almost at the same time, so they should be fertile.
etc!
King Ze's ultimate fan...
Yunliang never had any heirs for more than ten years...
Also, Yun Yanyan sprinkled Tu Shan Jin with the powder that could attract tigers on the hunting day...
In the flash of lightning, Yun Yaoyao connected these fragmentary information together and had a guess in her mind.
Tu Shanjin also thought of this level.
The two turned their heads and looked at each other in tacit understanding.
"Send the Dragon Shadow Guards to conduct a thorough investigation of the Yun Li Family!"
After the order was given, Yun Yaoyao was in a good mood and was about to take Tu Aifei for a walk when she heard a noise in the distance.
Yaoyao, an expert who loves watching the excitement, immediately got into the crowd and looked towards the center of the crowd.
"Brother, what happened inside? Why are so many people surrounding this place?" Yun Yaoyao casually asked the pilgrims who were also joining in the fun.
When the pilgrim saw Yun's graceful face, he was stunned for a moment: "Brother, you are so handsome. Standing next to you, I look like a bandit."
Yun Yaoyao nodded. She also admired the tyrant's appearance very much: "I think so too."
The pilgrim was shocked by the other party's sincerity: "You are really not polite at all."
"Brother, the person surrounded by the crowd is the number one god of our Yanchi Dynasty, the National Master!"
Yun Yaoyao was surprised: "National Preceptor?!"
Eighteen years ago, it was predicted that one of Yun Yaoyao and Yun Yanyan would be Da Furui's national advisor. Although there is not much description of him in the novel, he is a very mysterious existence.
"Please give way."
Yun Yaoyao immediately squeezed into the crowd. Her tall and stylish figure and superior facial features instantly attracted the attention of the pilgrims. She had an extraordinary demeanor. She either had money or status. The most important thing was that she was very approachable.
At first glance, he is the perfect candidate to be a son-in-law!
"Hey, is this young master married? My daughter was married last year..."
"I run three restaurants in the capital. I, Li, am the host. Sir, would you like to come to the restaurant to have a meal with my little daughter?"
"This young master..."
Seeing that the hands of several women and even rough men were about to touch his chest and arms, Tu Shanjin quickly squeezed into the crowd, stood with Yun Yaoyao, and glared coldly at the commotion crowd.
Yun Yaoyao immediately put his arms around Tu Jiao's wife's shoulders and smiled politely at everyone: "I already have a hot-tempered wife at home, but it's a pity that I am not as lucky."
Seeing this, the crowd gathered around him dispersed, looking at Tu Shanjin. They were first shocked, then shook their heads and sighed.
"He's cold and fierce, but his good looks are in vain."
"This young master is better. He is approachable and polite. It's a pity..."
"This is the first time in my life that I have seen such a good candidate for my son-in-law. I really can't bear to let him go."
Hearing the comments from the people around her, Yun Yaoyao bent down and leaned into Tu Shanjin's ear: "I didn't expect your body to be quite popular."
Tu Shanjin exuded a cold air that kept strangers away, and did not answer.
He was not popular; on the contrary, everyone gave him a wide berth.
He wanted to say that it is only because the soul living inside is you that it is loved so much.
The two finally squeezed into the center of the crowd.
Yun Yaoyao only saw a man in white, with an immortal air and fluttering white hair. He had a sense of being hidden in the mortal world and otherworldly.
But the man in white greeted everyone very enthusiastically. The scene was very much like a modern idol meeting his fans, and he was completely separated from this temperament.
Seeing Yun Yaoyao and Tu Shan Jin, the Imperial Master smiled and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. Let's go and have lunch together."
Yun Yaoyao:?
The three of them had lunch together.
After Tu Shanjin went to see the Imperial Master alone to ask his doubts, Yun Yaoyao finally waited for him.
She quietly put a piece of valuable jade into the hands of the imperial master.
The Imperial Master raised his eyebrows in surprise: "What do you mean?"
Yun Yaoyao said seriously: "It doesn't mean anything, it just means it. You know what I mean."
The Imperial Master smiled: "You are so interesting.
"If you want to ask anything, just ask."
Yun Yaoyao asked bluntly: "Eighteen years ago, the Great Furui mentioned by the National Master was Yun Yaoyao or Yun Yanyan."
The Imperial Master smiled lightly: "Of course it's you, Yun Yaoyao."
Yun Yaoyao was slightly surprised, the other party really had something.
She asked again, this time with a very serious look: "Why did I travel into a novel?"
"Everything you experienced here is real, so why do you still regard it as a novel instead of the real world?"
Yun Yaoyao: "Why would I exchange souls with Tu Shanjin?"
"There is a certain destiny somewhere."
Yun Yaoyao: "Then will I switch back with Tu Shanjin? If so, when will it be? Will we continue to trade after we switch back?"
"Waiting for you to move to the next stage."
The Imperial Master answered her nonsense officially, and Yun Yaoyao listened in confusion.
While his thoughts were in turmoil, the figure of the Imperial Master had already walked away, leaving only one sentence behind.
“I’ll answer the remaining questions for you when we meet next time!”
Yun Yaoyao still didn't understand. Adhering to the principle that if you don't understand, just don't understand. Whatever can defeat her sooner or later will defeat her sooner or later, so she simply stopped thinking about it.
This time they spent seven days enjoying themselves at Mingguang Temple, forcing the workaholic Tu Shanjin to only deal with major matters that required him to make decisions, before the two of them returned to the palace.
ah! It’s another day when you need to go to court at six every morning!
When she went to court this time, Yun Yaoyao found that her four concubines were all visibly haggard!
Especially Zhou Siren, it was as if his essence had been sucked dry, like an old chrysanthemum in late autumn, shriveled and wrinkled!
Lin Qingti also had sunken eyes, as did Guan Wanyu, a first-time female official.
As for Di Shunzhi, who took the hint from Yun Yaoyao and opened two new story books, his spirit was even more depressed. He felt that his body was hollowed out and not a drop could be squeezed out of his head!
Seeing this scene, Yun Yaoyao was very pleased.
And this time, there are many new faces among the officials under the Ministry of Revenue, most of whom were promoted on merit, with good conduct and outstanding abilities.
In the past seven days, Tu Shanjin remotely issued a series of iron-blooded measures to use the reason of the collapse of the Ministry of Revenue to vigorously crack down on corruption in the court, which made the courtiers complain and feel quite dissatisfied.
Furthermore, after Zhou Siren came to power as Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, every allocation approved from the Ministry of Revenue was calculated and calculated again and again, not one penny too much, not every penny too little, just enough!
If you ask for an extra penny, Zhou Siren, the iron cock, immediately screamed in distress.
Do you want money? If you keep nagging, you won’t even get a cent from the Ministry of Finance!
The original unspoken rule of these courtiers was to allocate a portion more than the actual budget, and the extra portion was used to make money for the superior officials at various levels or for convenience.
Now if this part is cut directly, wouldn't it directly kill them? !
When their immediate interests were involved, the courtiers became even more dissatisfied and resentful, and they all made unceremonious remonstrances.
From a high position, Yun Yaoyao took in the expressions of the courtiers below, but smiled without saying a word.
Yun Yaoyao understood why the courtiers were so angry this time.
The Yanchi Dynasty paid great attention to the integrity of officials, and the mainstream culture advocated two-sleeved breeze and prohibited pleasure. This resulted in the salary of the court officials being really low, and they could only make ends meet.
Yun Yaoyao just wanted to say to this, screw your mother!
After studying hard for so many years, I got the honor and got the chance to serve as an official in the court. But you told me that I get a monthly salary of 3,000?
I have worked hard for the first half of my life to create a better life and live a good life with my family!
Corruption is so rampant and serious. Apart from the inaction of the previous government, there is another reason at this level: salaries are too low.
Yun Yaoyao stood up in response to the anger and resentment of the courtiers below and said slowly.
"My dear friends, I have something to announce today."
"The salaries of officials in the DPRK and China will be increased!"
"Shang Shu Zhou, I will inform all of you dear friends about the re-established salary standards for officials."
Zhou Siren then took out a folded document from his arms, coughed twice, and read out slowly.
As the salary standards for official positions were read out one by one, the anger and resentment on the faces of the ministers immediately disappeared.
What? His salary increased tenfold!
What? A series of specific reward rules were also formulated. For example, if you make a certain major contribution during your tenure, you will get good land, beautiful house, and money!
The courtiers were all surprised. Among them, there were also some honest ministers who could not help but wipe their tears with their sleeves.
His first wife became seriously ill two years ago, and the daily decoction was a huge expense. However, although he was an official in the court, he was not ashamed of corruption and bribery. Therefore, his originally small family fortune quickly declined. null.
At that time, he couldn't even bear to eat steamed buns, and his original firm belief in integrity was crumbling!
Fa's wife understands the persistence in his heart, so she would rather not drink the life-threatening potion in the end than allow him to violate the principles of life.
God, why don't you open your eyes and see the suffering of honest officials like him, and let this wise king ascend the throne as soon as possible?
Then when he comes home in the morning, will he still see his wife making soup and waiting for him with a smile...
Zhou Siren announced the completion of salary arrangements and announced another policy.
"For those who serve as officials in the imperial court, if they have been an official for more than three years, their direct descendants can directly enter the Imperial Academy without any restrictions and receive official education! If they have been an official for more than five years..."
The salary problem has been solved, and the education problem of future generations has also been solved. Both are actual and vital interests. Now, what else can the courtiers say?
They all knelt down on the ground. No matter which camp they belonged to before, at this moment, they were just court officials whose vital interests were protected.
The sincere voice echoed throughout the Xuanzheng Hall, deafening!
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
"Long live, long live, long live your Majesty!"
