"Oh... you see what Mr. Shi said is true. If you don't mind it, I will move to the house from today on. I will serve you with good wine and tea, and I will make your stay comfortable!"
Tian Chong was saying this, but in his heart he was scolding Eunuch Shi's ancestors.
It belongs to me!
If you have something to say, say it, and fart if you want it. You are so weird and pretentious here, do you really think that just because you are a popular person next to the emperor, you can do whatever you want?
If the treasury were not empty now, would I be afraid of you?
Tian Chong is also suffering beyond words.
"Ha... Mr. Arita's words made me realize that my life has not been in vain for so many years! But I will never be able to enjoy it in this life! Now I can only talk with my mouth and move my hands!"
"Hi! Manager Shi said this..."
"Okay! I won't say so many polite words to you!"
Eunuch Shi interrupted Tian Chong without politeness and said, "I am coming here today, but I am coming with His Majesty's instructions!"
After Eunuch Shi finished speaking, Tian Chong hurriedly knelt on the ground.
This is the emperor's oral order.
If you don't kneel down, it is equivalent to the crime of deceiving the emperor!
He cannot bear this crime.
"Um……"
Seeing Tian Chong kneeling down, Eunuch Shi showed a satisfied look, and then said: "Get up now! You don't need so many etiquette!"
Tian Chong did not stand up.
Shi Gonggong said: "Your Majesty, Tian Chong, these days, you eat spicy food and the food is constantly improving. Why is the quality of the palace meals getting worse and worse?"
"ah……"
When Tian Chong heard this, he suddenly panicked. Sure enough... they were still talking about the empty national power, but they didn't know that the national power was empty.
"This... Eunuch Shi... is nothing, right?" Tian Chong racked his brains and began to think of ways to deal with it temporarily.
"Liu Kui...please tell me about Mr. Tian!" Eunuch Shi turned his attention to Eunuch Liu who was standing aside.
After saying these words, Tian Chong knew that the treasury inventory was about to be brought to light.
He was complaining inwardly, but he pretended to be calm on the outside and tried his best to keep everything as tight as possible.
Eunuch Liu stood up and said, "Mr. Tian should know it all too well! I dare to ask Mr. Tian, when will the treasury inventory be completed?"
Tian Chong frowned.
He tried his best to steady his mind and not let the emptiness be exposed.
But he knew that the empty treasury was not far away from being exposed!
Tian Chong's expression was serious, and he pretended to be displeased and rebuked: "This is a matter of my household department. You, a junior member of the Huang family, don't seem to have the right to interfere, right? Why...do you want to get involved in politics?"
He can be afraid of Eunuch Shi, but there is no need to be underhanded with Eunuch Liu, right?
After all, he is also an official of the imperial court.
The dignified minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
What do you mean by a little yellow door?
If Eunuch Liu was not worried about Eunuch Shi and Eunuch Liu dared to say this to his face, he could kill Eunuch Liu with one sword.
He has the right to kill first and then tell later.
Seeing that Tian Chong straightened up as soon as the question reached a critical point, Eunuch Shi knew that this violated Tian Chong's bottom line.
Although he is a popular person next to His Majesty, he also knows the general situation and knows how to advance and retreat. This time His Majesty only asked about the food in the imperial kitchen, not about the treasury and the Ministry of Household Affairs.
and.
When it comes to the treasury and the household department, they are all political topics, and he, a palace eunuch, is not qualified to intervene.
If this meddling in politics was reported to His Majesty by Tian Chong, he, Eunuch Shi's head of the Internal Affairs Office, would have reached the end.
The celebrity next to the emperor?
If you meet a faint king, maybe he is really a personal celebrity?
But are all Yannan fools?
Perhaps his methods were a bit cruel in his later years, but he definitely had his own principles and opinions in terms of political stance.
If his Eunuch Shi dares to interfere in government affairs, he will definitely be buried in the Jinluan Hall the next morning!
Doing politics? ?
Tian Chong intervened in politics and immediately made Eunuch Shi's mind clearer.
Damn it!
If this shit basin is buckled down, even if it doesn't exist, it will still be firmly established!
Don't ask so many questions!
Just ask... This is coming from the mouth of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance!
The words of a dignified minister should be more authoritative and convincing than a director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, right?
certainly.
If this were the Jin Yiwei of the Ming Dynasty, that would be a different matter!
After all, Jinyiwei is the emperor's right-hand man.
"Snapped……"
Eunuch Shi suddenly waved his hand, slapped Eunuch Liu on the face, and then roared angrily: "You bastard, can you speak? Have you ever asked the Master like this in person? What the hell are you? ?”
Eunuch Liu was slapped and looked aggrieved.
Seeing Eunuch Liu being slapped, Tian Chong's expression softened, and then he struck a chord while the iron was hot: "I know Eunuch Shi has doubts in his heart! Now that the matter has been brought out, I will simply clarify it! To avoid some villains secretly causing trouble, I want to You want to interfere in the government affairs of my Ministry of Finance!!"
He was obviously still angry when he said this.
Even Eunuch Shi’s title has changed!
Although the tone was slightly slower, the official authority of the Minister of Revenue was still revealed!
Eunuch Shi glared at Eunuch Liu angrily, saying, you are a bitch, you have really caused me misery! !
Tian Chong knew that there were some things that he could hide from others, but it was impossible to hide them from Eunuch Shi.
So he stood up, rolled his sleeves and said, "I'll tell you the truth, Eunuch Shi! The treasury is indeed working overtime these days to take inventory! Although His Majesty has not issued an edict to take inventory! But as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, this is my internal matter and does not need to be carried out. Should I report it to others? And... I have to do everything down to the smallest detail to avoid any mistakes in the treasury! If there is a mistake, who can afford it? Can you, Manager Shi, afford it? Or can he, a little Huangmen, afford it? Can you afford it? Since His Majesty appointed me, Tian Chong, as the Minister of Household Affairs, he naturally trusts me and thinks that I, Tian Chong, have this ability! Naturally, I have to treat it carefully and cannot just perfunctory it, right?"
Tian Chong looked solemn and said sharply.
"Yes, yes! Mr. Tian is indeed right! I am extremely convinced of Mr. Tian's ability on this point!" Eunuch Shi saw Tian Chong calling him the manager again, and nodded hurriedly in agreement.
"The food in the palace may be a little bad these days! But my account department will seize the time to check the accounts! As for the accounts owed on credit in the vegetable market, after the treasury inventory is completed, I will order people to clear them one by one! Eunuch Shi will not do anything about this. You need to worry about it! But... Mr. Shi needs to worry a lot during these days! When the treasury is liquidated another day, I will treat you with a banquet with the highest etiquette to express my gratitude!"
Tian Chong lowered his stance again.
This is called assessing the situation.
When it’s time to establish your authority, you must establish your authority.
When it’s time to bow your head, you must bow your head.
Although Tian Chong can't be wily and cunning, he is still a mixed system person, and he is still very good at these things.
