Let's Play! My Subjects Are All Historical Traitors?

048 You Qing family are indeed great loyal ministers!

Seeing the absent-minded appearance of His Highness and his ministers.

Nie Zheng smiled.

Don’t guess.

Nie Zheng also knew what they were thinking about.

But Nie Zheng didn’t care.

Instead, he winked at Cao Qing.

Cao Qing understood the idea, held an imperial decree in his hand, and began to read the will of the emperor:

“Fengtian, the emperor’s edict said: The treasury is getting empty day by day, and my heart is very uneasy. The nine-week land and seven countries coexist. My ministers in Daxia should be loyal to the country…”

Cao Qing read the imperial edict aloud.

His Highness and the ministers looked at each other in dismay.

The minister even had a strange look on his face.

The look in Nie Zheng’s eyes was a little bad.

The reason for the poor civil and military officials is very simple.

All because of the content of this decree.

simply put.

The content of this imperial decree is that Nie Zheng asks the civil and military officials for money.

Tell them they are poor now.

The treasury is not only out of money.

Even the Ministry of Internal Affairs has no silver taels.

Don’t you courtiers hurry up and donate generously?

Troubleshoot for me?

certainly.

The content of the imperial edict is naturally not written in this way.

On the contrary, it is eloquent-sounding.

But that’s what it means.

After Cao Qing read the imperial edict.

The civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty chose to remain silent.

He bowed his head and stood silently.

“The treasury cannot make ends meet. As the ministers of the Great Xia, the Qing family will certainly not sit idly by, right?”

See the ministers are silent.

Nie Zheng asked with a smile.

pity.

The entire Longde Hall could hear the needle falling quietly.

Not a single courtier came forward and said that he was willing to donate silver taels to replenish the treasury.

the reason is simple.

After all, none of the civil and military officials are idiots.

How much to donate?

If I donate too much, wouldn’t I tell the Son of Heaven that I am a corrupt official?

Don’t donate enough, did the emperor send you that little piece of silver tael?

Don’t tell anyone else.

Let’s talk about the salary of the prime minister.

There are only a thousand taels of silver a year.

The salaries of the rest of the courtiers were even less.

“Zhao Kuangyin, Cao Wei.”

Seeing that the ministers did not speak.

Nie Zheng could only call by name.

Zhao Kuangyin’s face was ashen.

He has been pitted by the Son of Heaven.

Even the food and salaries of the millions of troops have to find their own way.

Now he’s still using himself?

what?

Can I shave the wool by myself?

Is it really so easy to bully Ben Shuai?

Even if Zhao Kuangyin has a good temper.

At this moment, the anger in my heart was rising.

She even cursed her in her heart.

actually.

Zhao Kuangyin has a secret.

That is his subordinate.

All his subordinates are military generals who can fight well.

Even more loyal to him.

These generals had secretly urged him to usurp the throne.

I want him to be crowned emperor.

It’s just that Zhao Kuangyin has always refused.

I don’t want to commit this kind of treason.

Can now be pitted by Nie Zheng.

Zhao Kuangyin really thought about it in his heart.

I will endure!

Zhao Kuangyin still suppressed the idea of ​​rebellion.

After all, it is not a last resort.

He absolutely did not want to take this step.

But let him donate silver taels.

Emperor B!

Go dream.

“The minister’s annual salary is only 1,200 taels, and I would like to donate 1,000 taels of silver to replenish the treasury.”

Zhao Kuangyin was lukewarm.

“Your Majesty, the minister’s annual salary is only one thousand taels, and I would like to donate it all.”

Cao Yu could only stand up.

It is the same as Zhao Kuangyin’s rhetoric.

“The minister donated eight hundred taels.”

This is the Minister of the Ministry of Housing and Shen.

“The family is poor, and I would like to donate 600 taels of silver.”

This is Qin Hui, Minister of Officials.

“The minister donated seven hundred taels.”

This is Xing Daorong, the Minister of War.

…

Five hundred taels!

Four hundred and two!

Three hundred and two!

Two hundred and two!

One hundred taels!

…

The ministers gave generously.

There are even more low-ranking officials donated fifty taels of silver.

One after another, the sound of donating silver is endless.

But together, it is worth more than ten thousand taels of silver.

“You Qing family are indeed my loyal ministers in Daxia, and even donated all their annual salaries.”

“I’m so relieved.”

on the throne.

Nie Zheng was all smiles.

There was no trace of anger.

It seems that he is really moved by the behavior of the ministers donating money.

But one person was watching Nie Zheng out of the corner of his eye.

And this person is no one else.

It was Zhao Gao, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The ministers did not have much contact with the emperor.

But he was in the inner palace.

I don’t dare say I understand Nie Zheng.

But also know that Nie Zheng is a moody king.

And the means are very powerful.

How could this mere 10,000 taels of silver fill his appetite?

It’s just that Zhao Gao’s mind changed sharply.

Thinking Nie Zheng knew that Baiguan would not donate much money at all.

But why does he still promulgate this will?

Not waiting for Zhao Gao to understand.

Nie Zheng on the throne opened his mouth with a smile. *
