Send money to His Majesty?
At this moment, everyone who heard this sentence frowned and felt a sense of absurdity.
There is a saying that goes well, everything in the world is the land of the king, and on the shore of the land, there are the ministers of the king.
The whole world belongs to the emperor's family, how can there be any talk of giving away money?
"Ahem, please give in. Please give in, gentlemen. We are here to give money to His Majesty."
However, at this moment, this voice sounded from outside the palace, extremely close.
While everyone was dumbfounded, Emperor Renxuan raised his eyebrows and seemed to remember that this was Gu Beichuan's voice: "Who is making noise outside the palace? Tell me your name."
"Your Majesty, the humble minister Gu Beichuan."
It was really him. Emperor Renxuan was even more surprised: "Come in and talk."
Gu Beichuan then walked in, and with Emperor Renxuan's instructions, the eunuchs did not dare to stop him.
As a result, cartloads of gold, silver and jewelry were transported into the Qiande Hall in such a grand manner!
Looking at the cart after cart of money, all the princes in the court couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
This... so much silver, I'm afraid it must be as much as a million taels.
What does this colleague Gu do at home?
Previously, I had only heard that he had great literary talents and was known as a literary star.
Unexpectedly, the family wealth is so rich.
It's just that...it's rich and it's rich, but it can't be transported into the Jinluan Palace in such a grand manner!
What a shame!
Besides, now is the time when the imperial court is short of money.
His Majesty the Emperor's eyes lit up when he saw Yinliang. Didn't he see that the head of the Yang family, the fourth generation and the third prince, was also crying about poverty at this moment?
I'm afraid I won't be able to please you if I walk around like this.
Wei Qing and Hu Yan frowned when they saw this.
They knew Gu Beichuan's origins, and they also knew that he was different from ordinary people from a poor family. He knew how to make a living, so he probably had some wealth.
But this is the Jinluan Palace! No matter how much wealth you have, you can’t show it off here!
Wei Qing couldn't help but have a hint of anger on his face. If he was obsessed with businessman ways and obsessed with money, he might not be a good official.
Hu Yan also looked embarrassed. Could it be that his friend Qin Xiuwen deceived him?
Only the officials from the aristocratic family faction were smiling happily, and Emperor Renxuan pressed forward step by step, putting them on the fire.
It's good now that a fool steps up and transports silver to the Jinluan Palace in a grand manner. Doesn't this share the firepower with them?
Good man!
Who said this is from the Qingliu people?
He is clearly the backbone of our family!
Even Emperor Renxuan couldn't help but frown slightly.
To be honest, in his impression, although Gu Beichuan was still young, he had always been a measured and wise boy.
What we did today was really unwise.
So he put on a serious face and asked sternly: "Qiande Palace is where I discuss matters with the princes. Why did the Gu Qing family bring this yellow and white thing? Isn't it humiliating the imperial court?"
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he was also stunned and said in surprise: "Your Majesty, this is your money. The money we earned from doing business as a partnership was given to you by your humble servant."
Emperor Renxuan frowned even more tightly: "I have many things to deal with every day and am busy with state affairs. When did I do business with you in partnership?"
"Oh, Your Majesty, have you forgotten?"
"When we first met in Huainan, you said that my business was profitable and you wanted to invest 300,000 taels of silver in it."
"I didn't agree. I just said that I don't need three hundred thousand taels of silver. I just need to go to Qiandu in the future and do business under the banner of Zhengyang Marquis."
"Now that I have done business in Gandu, I have made a lot of money. This portion belongs to your Majesty!"
When Emperor Renxuan heard this, he was a little dazed, his thoughts were racing, and he suddenly remembered!
It seems like this is happening!
It turns out that when he went to Huainan, he used the name of Zhengyang Hou!
Wait, the name of Marquis Zhengyang?
I just said that this old boy doesn’t look like someone who can make money. Why is it that people inside and outside the court these days say that he has made a lot of money? This is where the source comes from!
Then he remembered that a few days ago, he called Marquis Zhengyang to come and give him a scolding.
Emperor Renxuan's face suddenly became strange. This... was really a coincidence. Marquis Zhengyang's lecture was really in time.
However, now, looking at the silver coins filling the palace, Emperor Renxuan had no time to take care of Zhengyang Marquis.
"How much do these... total?"
"Your Majesty, there will always be some errors, but the total amount should be around 1.2 million taels."
boom!
As soon as this statement came out, the government and the public were shocked!
One million two hundred thousand taels of silver! What is this concept?
Emperor Renxuan didn't know how much silver it would take to rebuild the ship, but it certainly didn't need that much!
In other words, this money not only solved his urgent need, but could even make a lot more to use as military pay for the Northern Expedition!
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Emperor Renxuan was greatly comforted and said hello three times: "There are not many ministers like the Qing family who serve the country and the people."
To be honest, Emperor Renxuan had already forgotten this amount of money.
Gu Beichuan could refuse to give it, or cry out for poverty like Yang Huai.
But they don’t have it!
Not only was it given, but it was transported to the Golden Palace in a grand manner!
It can be said that it is given clearly and clearly!
"Compared with some people, it really makes a difference, huh!"
Things are developing too fast, and at this moment, most officials are in a state of confusion.
At this time, he heard Emperor Renxuan's cold snort and calmed down.
The displeasure on the faces of the Qingliu people melted away quickly like ice and snow encountering the blazing sun.
Wei Qing stroked his beard and felt happy and relieved.
If he hadn't been in the Jinluan Palace at this moment, he would have really wanted to laugh.
Among the scholars in the world, there are really not many scholars like Gu Beichuan who can write well and make money at the same time.
Hu Yan also smiled and thought to himself that Qin Xiuwen really didn't lie to me. He donated so much money to the country. This man's moral character is really noble!
Yes, what is the status of Emperor Renxuan in the eyes of officials? How could he go into business partnership with an unknown small businessman?
So this must be an excuse that Gu Beichuan came up with!
definitely is!
It was obviously his hard-earned money, but he still tried every means to give it to the court.
This man...is so righteous! Be patriotic!
How can they smile when such a new colleague joins them?
On the contrary, the joy on the faces of the family officials stopped abruptly.
Then it stiffened little by little and disappeared little by little.
Taken together, this guy brought so much money and food just to slap them in the face?
When did our five great families offend him?
He even spent millions of taels to get involved.
This... what is this!
"Yang Qing's family, Duan Qing's family, have you seen it?"
"Your century-old family cannot afford the money. Why can the Gu Qing family afford it?"
When Yang Huai and Duan Qingyan heard this, they were immediately speechless.
It can't be said that the people in their family are all losers, and hundreds or even thousands of people can't compare to one of them.
"Hmph, go back and be grounded for a month, so that you can reflect and retreat from the court!"
