Concubine Hua's smile became brighter and she said, "It seems that God is helping us! As long as that fake eunuch is caught by Your Majesty, he will be tortured. I'm afraid he will also find out how Liu Shiqing used them and combined with Li Xiaozheng's Tell everything!"
Up until now, Concubine Hua and Lu Qian were just a male favorite used by Concubine Li to win people's hearts.
Little did they know, Lu Qian was the big boss behind them.
While talking, Wang Xi also came over.
"Congratulations to the empress, congratulations to the empress... Everything is ready. The three of them are lying on the bed in bed..." Wang Xi's acting skills have to be said to be really good.
"Okay! Eunuch Wei, go and watch." Concubine Hua raised her hand gently.
Eunuch Wei said to Wang Xi with deep understanding, "Come with me."
Wang Xi was very happy and followed Eunuch Wei to a house.
As soon as he entered the house, Eunuch Wei turned around and stabbed Wang Xi in the chest with one knife.
After confirming that the dead person could not die, he asked his two godsons to deal with the person.
Concubine Hua saw Eunuch Wei coming back and asked, "Has everything been solved?"
Eunuch Wei nodded.
Concubine Hua smiled and said, "Then let's go to Jingren Palace."
...
Inside Jingren Palace.
Xia Jiuyuan was having dinner with Xia Wenzhi and the others.
"Father, Liu Shangshu really has a trick. In just two days, he raised five million taels of silver and handed it over to the Ministry of War."
After hearing this, Xia Jiuyuan said calmly, "Still rely on selling national debt?"
Xia Wenzhi nodded.
Xia Jiuyuan shook his head and said, "Is he really risking his life now? However, the day when the national debt is paid is the day of his death... he can only survive for a few days! What a pity for such a talent. But, he dares to risk the disapproval of the world and offend There are millions of soldiers, so I have to use his head to appease the anger of the soldiers."
"Father! I'm afraid Liu Shangshu will not die this time!" Xia Wenzhi said with a smile.
"Oh? There is a total of 7 million treasury bonds, and 10 million will be needed to pay them off... In the past six months, we will need 10 million taels of military spending! A total of 20 million taels, even if taxes are collected, there will still be a vacancy of 10 million... Even though he is the reincarnation of the God of Wealth, he cannot fill this vacancy." Xia Jiuyuan said calmly.
Xia Wenzhi was a little surprised. His father was usually very careless, but now it seemed that he was very attentive.
"Father, you don't know something...the fine salt in our salt refinery is already on sale today! How much do you think one stone sells for?"
"A stone of coarse salt costs one tael of silver, and fine salt can be sold for about five taels of silver," Xia Jiuyuan said.
Xia Wenzhi shook his head and said, "Father, today we sold two hundred taels of fine salt per stone, and the supply exceeds demand... We sold two thousand stones today, and earned a total of four hundred thousand taels of silver."
"How much?" Xia Jiuyuan asked in confusion.
"Reply to my father! Four hundred thousand taels of silver!" Xia Wenzhi said.
This is beyond everyone's imagination.
They just followed what Lu Qian said.
Yesterday, some news was spread.
It is said that the salt warehouse is going to distribute a batch of fine salt specially used for the royal family. This kind of fine salt used to be exclusively for the royal family and is unique to Daxia.
Yancang also stated that the fine salt purchased through Yancang can be sold again.
There are many powerful businessmen in Kyoto. I heard that salt can be sold, and I tasted the fine salt. It is definitely a rare good thing.
It was passed on to ten and hundreds of people, and dignitaries and businessmen began to rush to buy it.
After listening, Xia Jiuyuan said, "Salt affairs are the foundation of the country! You allow vendors to sell fine salt. By then, the price of fine salt will be sky-high! The people can't afford it. Do you know the consequences?"
"Father, the people who use fine salt are not ordinary people. They are wealthy households with high official status. Instead, we have lowered the price of coarse salt. If everything goes well, within one year, we can make the treasury of Daxia Fill it up." Xia Wenzhi said.
After hearing this, Xia Jiuyuan nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay... Wenzhi. You always surprise my father. You are really my good son."
"My son just did something that he could do to relieve his father's worries," Xia Wenzhi said.
At this moment, Eunuch Gao walked in, leaned into Xia Jiuyuan's ear and whispered a few words.
"Concubine Hua? What's she doing here? What's important, we have to talk about it at night." Xia Jiuyuan said.
Eunuch Gao shook his head and then said, "Looking at Concubine Hua, it seems that something is really urgent."
"Let her in..."
After Concubine Hua came in, she said with a panic look on her face, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Something happened in the harem... Something big happened..."
"What's going on?" Xia Jiuyuan said with a frown.
"Your Majesty! Concubine Li and Concubine Xi are in Fengxi Palace, having a secret meeting with their male favorite... the harem!" Concubine Hua said while kneeling on the ground.
"Hua Fei, what are you talking nonsense about?" Xia Jiuyuan said sternly with a serious look on his face.
"I don't dare to lie. If I don't have complete evidence, how can I dare to expose... That male favorite is the former Eunuch Lu in Concubine Li's palace. Concubine Li knows that the former concubine has been neglected by her majesty, and she will not be able to bear the loneliness. , just send your male pet to please you!"
"Concubine Li is now your majesty's sole favorite, but no one supports her, so she thought of using male favors to buy the support of the former concubine, the winning Duke Cheng Guo!"
What Concubine Hua said was vivid and vivid.
Queen Xiaojing and Xia Wenzhi didn't look good.
"Do you know what you are talking about?"
"Concubine, I am willing to guarantee it with my life! Your Majesty, follow me to Fengxi Palace now. You will know at a glance..." Concubine Hua said.
Xia Jiuyuan couldn't sit still now!
He also knew that the former concubine had a dissolute nature.
Moreover, Concubine Hua dared to break into Jingren Palace at night to talk about this matter.
There must be full confidence.
"Let's go to Fengxi Palace." Xia Jiuyuan was silent for a moment and then said sharply.
Then he said to Eunuch Gao, "Let Zhang Bao come with the imperial army!"
Eunuch Gao nodded.
Seeing that Xia Wenzhi did not follow, Xia Jiuyuan turned around and said coldly, "You guys come with me!"
Xia Wenzhi originally wanted to report the news, but at this time there was no chance, so he nodded and followed.
And before leaving, Xia Jiuyuan said to the imperial guards at the door, "Watch Jingren Palace and don't let anyone out."
Obviously, Xia Jiuyuan was also afraid that people here would go out and tip off the news.
Concubine Hua looked at Xia Wenzhi, who was a little uneasy, and said as she walked, "First Prince, what are you afraid of? Could it be that you are also connected with that fake eunuch..."
The best emperor master
