MTL - After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister-Chapter 224 224th
Xiao Yan's mind was racing, "If you promise me, I will say..."
Du Shaoxuan was very impatient, "Pull it out."
Seeing that his attitude was so determined, Xiao Yan felt anxious, "There is a hidden compartment in the study of King Jin, which is full of Mu Wanqing's portraits."
Du Shaoxuan rushed out, and when passing by Xiao Yan, ordered, "Lock people up and don't run around."
Xiao Yan looked at his disappearing figure, an angry and shy man who didn't know the style.
Du Shaoxuan carefully searched every corner of the study, and found a hidden compartment behind a mural.
Sure enough, all of them were scrolls. When I opened them up, they saw Mu Wanqing's portraits. The shapes were different and lifelike. The lifelike images appeared on the paper.
Only those who have seen her can draw such vivid images, and…
He looked at it for a while, silently pocketed all the portraits, and didn't mention it.
Wind without a trace.
Du Shaoxuan scavenged the treasure house of Jin Wangfu and sent them all back to Xiliang.
As for the people of Jin Wangfu, they were all imprisoned.
Both men and women serve hard labor, let's go to the sun.
It's not bad if you don't kill them, what's the noise? Do you feel bad about dying?
Everyone is desperate, but they don't have the courage to die, they can only suffer.
"Sixth sister, it's all your fault. You offended General Du, and that's why we're here."
"The winner is the king and the loser is the loser. We Jinwangfu is finished, and so are we."
Mu Wanqing didn't know anything about these things, she was busy in Xiliang.
Since spring ploughing has to be arranged, it is time for cotton seedlings. This time, there are enough cotton seeds, which have been planted in various areas of Xiliang, accounting for half of the planting area.
The other half is still planting wheat, which is the staple food, and a certain planting area must be guaranteed.
And there are not many corn seeds, so she planted a large area in her own Shuimu Farm, and in the fall, she can harvest a large number of fine seeds.
This time I have experience, the farmers are very careful, and the seedlings are growing gratifying.
On the other hand, she is also responsible for the logistics of the army, raising grain and arranging for manual delivery.
I have to work until late at night every day, and I will fall asleep when I touch the bed.
Not only her, but all departments of Xiliang are busy, like a high-speed machine, continuously outputting.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief until they captured the Jin Palace.
Mu Wanqing arranged a small celebration banquet for everyone to relax.
The celebration banquet is in the form of a buffet, the food is lined up, and it is quite novel if you want to eat it yourself.
Mu Wanqing took a plate of food and picked a spot at will, and after a while, a bunch of people were around her.
Sun Tongzhi was elated, "We have won this battle."
The back road of King Jin's army was cut off, and the front was fighting with the court.
"The army of the King of Jin is still outside, so don't take it lightly."
Sun Tongzhi took an egg **** and ate it with relish, "Don't worry, our young master can't do anything else, he is a good hand in war."
Miss Du is not happy, "What's the other way?"
Sun Tongzhi was quick to speak, and coughed a few times in embarrassment, "Cough, I mean he is famous for his ability to conquer and fight, and with him, Xiliang is as stable as Mount Tai."
He turned his head to look at Mu Wanqing, "County Lord, this egg **** is so delicious, can I pack a few?"
Mu Wanqing slowly picked out a few favorite foods, not much to say.
She knew that this was a change of topic, but she didn't break it, and nodded slightly, "Okay, you can tell the staff, don't forget to take it when you leave."
Miss Du also looked over and said, "Thank you, county magistrate."
Others also said, "I want it too."
"I also want to bring some back home for the elderly and children to eat."
Mu Wanqing did not expect egg tarts to be so popular, "Go and ask if there are more, if not, make more."
Miss Du is very fond of sweets, so she will let the servants of Fuzhong go to the snack street to buy a few copies.
“Why doesn’t the snack street serve egg tarts?”
Not only egg tarts, but also cream cakes, if you want to eat, you can only find Mu Wanqing.
The Mu family raised a group of chefs who made pastry, all of which were cultivated by Mu Wanqing.
They can only eat enough at various festivals.
Mu Wanqing waved her hand, "It's too expensive, the cost is a little high, and it's not suitable for a civilian snack street."
Snack Street is positioned so that ordinary people can afford it.
Miss Du thought for a while, "You can open a pastry shop in a department store and sell it at an affordable price."
"Guo Er won the exclusive right to shoot, let him open a branch in Xiliang another day." Mu Wanqing made enough money on glass, but she was usually busy, so she was lazy to spend her time on This above.
Hey, Guo Er opened a lot of houses in Jiangnan, why didn't he open one here? Time to ask what's going on.
Time flies fast, the autumn harvest season, the cotton harvest time, already has the experience of the previous year, the cotton is picked in an orderly manner in each area, rough processed into cotton cloth, cotton batting, alcohol cotton balls, self-sufficiency While being self-sufficient, there are surpluses.
Mu Wanqing used these surpluses as welfare, and urban residents who took the initiative to open the door to welcome Du Jiajun could buy them at a low price with their household registration.
These folk houses are so happy, Qingping County Lord is good, you can always trust her.
After the autumn harvest, the Du family army returned to court. Since then, the two-year war has finally ended, and there are no more rebels.
Yes, back to the court, Du Shaoxuan took the army to **** the defeated King of Jin and his group back to the court.
The emperor personally led the civil and military officials to greet him. Du Shaoxuan arranged a vigorous presentation of prisoners, and the emperor was delighted.
Du Shaoxuan was a little surprised, but happily stepped forward to receive the order.
He won a king, relying on his own ability, with a clear conscience.
The civil and military officials were shocked. They didn't communicate with them in advance, which was against the rules.
Second Fu was the first to stand up, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. General Du is in a high position at a young age, so I'm afraid he won't be able to convince the public."
Xu Shoufu, who was on the side, was reluctant to return home, so he just married his granddaughter.
Nowadays, the second assistant has become the head of the hundred officials, and the moxibustion is hot.
The emperor looked at them coldly, "Who doesn't accept it? You don't accept it? If you can also wipe out the chaotic thieves, Xiao Qing's chaos in the world, and restore the court, I may have a throne for you."
Du Shaoxuan rescued him many times, protected him to the throne, and fought in the south and the north to clear all obstacles for him.
This is everything in blood.
The Minister of Rites stood up and said, "Your Majesty, there are still examples of feudal feudal chaos, you can't repeat the same mistakes."
It is not good for the country to seal a king with a different surname, and people's hearts are changeable. Du Shaoxuan is loyal now, but can he guarantee that he will be loyal all his life? Can he guarantee that his descendants will be loyal?
Du Shaoxuan was furious, "You dare to compare me with those thieves, are you trying to force me against me?
"You...you..." The Ministry of Rites was blushing, "Your Majesty, the authority of Xiliang is too heavy. One prince and one county head make people worry."
Other officials came out to help one after another, and they all opposed the emperor's title to the king.
The emperor's expression was light, "I am really moved by your lords' concern for the country and the people. Right now, there is a huge problem waiting for the Qing family to share my worries."
"After this disaster, people's livelihood is difficult, all industries have withered, and people's lives are in hardship. How to help people rebuild their homes and restore their economy and people's livelihood. Mr. Wang, this mess of thieves will be handed over to you. solve."
The face of the Minister of Rites who was named turned green.
"Tell me, is there any way to solve it?"
The head of the Minister of Rites was turning fast and trembling, "First to appease the people, resume production, open the national treasury..."
His voice stopped abruptly, and his face was troubled.
The emperor slowly looked at everyone, "The treasury is empty, money is needed for everything, and the people are looking forward to the court to rescue them. As civil and military officials, should you express it? "
Baiguan secretly complained.
Du Shaoxuan was the first to stand up, "The minister donated 100,000 taels of silver, and also donated 100,000 on behalf of the head of Qingping County."
The emperor looked relieved, "Okay, this is the minister who loves the country and the people, how about you?"
The officials looked at each other and were very angry. This is obviously a forced donation, are they really not the acting that they have negotiated in advance?
Xu Shoufu, who was a wall flower on the side, winked at the censor, and the censor immediately stood up, "General Du, why didn't you turn over the spoils of war you got from capturing the Jin palace? It is corruption and embezzlement, please punish the emperor."
The eyes of the ministers lit up, didn't they? He didn't hand in the victory.
They jumped out one by one like mad dogs smelling blood.
"General Du, you actually embezzled the victory, how can you be worthy of the emperor who loves you dearly?"
Faced with the siege of everyone, Du Shaoxuan disdainfully said, "Your Majesty, the minister has already sent those dead objects to Xiliang..."
The censor was as excited as he had caught the handle, "Okay, you all admit it, Your Majesty, you can no longer cover up General Du, who is proud of his achievements this time."
Du Shaoxuan rolled his eyes, "I haven't finished my words, what's the hurry? There are mutual markets and auction houses in Ganzhou City, where you can usually get a good price for shipments and sell thousands of dollars in Beijing. Two things can be multiplied several times in the hands of the Qingping County Lord."
"Go directly to the treasury, who knows if there will be any mistakes, the real one will become fake, and the fake one will become waste."
The faces of all the officials were blue, Du Shaoxuan didn't care, he bowed his hands to the emperor, "I got the emperor's permission."
So, where is their turn to be blind.
The emperor's mouth twitched slightly, "Yes, I allow it."
The courtiers were silent, this pair of cousins is too dog, they did it on purpose.
A voice sounded fiercely, "My minister has a suggestion, the county head of Qingping is good at economic management, it is better to transfer her to the Ministry of Household and be responsible for filling the treasury."
Everyone looked over and saw that it was the Minister of Rites, a traitor!
