The ministers' eyes trembled, and they looked at the colleagues headed by Jiao Hongmiao with dull expressions. They stood up and dismounted majestically, walked straight to the front of Carriage where Emperor Mingze was, and bowed respectfully. "Master, Hongmiao is late!"
The three words "It's too late" are particularly sonorous, powerful, sincere, and...
A pun.
It's like running hundreds of miles all the way just to say this sentence with such determination and perseverance.
There was no sound from Carriage for a while, and Jiao Hongmiao's expression didn't even change as he continued, "Sir, is the lady also in the car? I passed by Qu Chun this time and packed local special cakes for the lady."
The focus of the sentence fell on the two words "Qu Chun". At this point, the ministers headed by Pan Jifeng, who could not hear the little guy's voice, also understood the main purpose of Jiao Hongmiao's trip.
"..."
Ah this--
This is a bit embarrassing.
Although the gold and silver were not returned to the national treasury, they only obtained the funds with the approval of Emperor Mingze, but...
This situation inexplicably made them feel shameful and helpless when they secretly stole a large amount of money to buy toys while the person in charge of money was not around, and then were discovered later.
The people with expressions angrily put away the weapons in their hands, slowly returned to the car, returned them to their original positions with great care, and took advantage of the opportunity to clean the inside of the car.
--Just don't face the vaguely sad and angry looks cast by those people.
In the carriage where Emperor Mingze was, no one answered for a long time.
Jiao Hongmiao stood outside the carriage with a few "sufferers" who had not made any money. They felt sad for a moment and couldn't help but let out a loud groan.
My thoughts also drifted back to a few days ago--
This is Crown Prince's first time to supervise the country. Although Emperor Mingze had extremely detailed teaching arrangements before leaving, many things still require them, veterans, to put more thought into it.
Emperor Mingze took away too many officials. Even though the political affairs after New Year’s Banquet were not as heavy as usual, the few poor people who were left behind were still very busy every day.
It was a busy but ordinary afternoon when I discovered something strange.
On that day, he and several colleagues were forced to stay for lunch together with Crown Prince, which delayed their return trip a little.
It was during this period of delay that they unexpectedly encountered several teams carrying Redwood treasure chests.
The leader's eyes were averted, and as soon as he met his gaze, his expression became visibly panicked.
At that time, he thought that there were some unscrupulous people in the palace, and he stepped forward with the determination to sacrifice his life for the country, trying to buy time for his companions to go back and seek support. Who would have thought that the truth was even more embarrassing than the fact that there were unscrupulous people in the palace!!
That should all be Ministry of Revenue's money!
Ministry of Revenue's!!
He is going to make trouble!!
As his thoughts returned, Emperor Mingze's sighs sounded in the carriage at that moment.
Jiang Yanchuan expected that Jiao Hongmiao was almost sulky, so he said calmly, "Let's talk."
Jiao Hongmiao straightened his back suddenly!
"Then I'll tell you straight away!"
"I work diligently at home to take care of the home, and you make a fortune outside, but you don't even think about subsidizing the family?!"
It doesn't matter if there is no subsidy, but the group of people who go out to play with us are given private money!!
It was like the sky was falling when I woke up!!
Jiao Hongmiao's tone was full of accusations. "If I hadn't happened to find out, would you still have wanted to hide it?!"
Is this reasonable?!
Jiao Hongmiao tried his best to open his eyes wide, and looked towards the direction of the car with an aggrieved expression. However, Emperor Mingze inside was as hard-hearted as iron, and had no intention of opening the curtain to take a look at these old guys who had suffered unfair treatment!!
Even more angry!
Jiang Yanchuan sighed deeply.
It's not that he didn't want to give it, it was just that after the "Meeting Everyone" that day was over, the little guy was already gasping in pain. If he had proposed to charge the remaining money to the treasury, he didn't know how long it would have taken to completely coax the little guy...
But--
Now that they have all chased them here by themselves, how much they can get depends on their own abilities.
Jiang Yanchuan said, "Then how are you doing?"
He finally opened a small piece of curtain, and the people on both sides looked at each other through a small gap. The atmosphere was anxious and a bit awkward.
The ones who were anxious were Jiang Yanchuan and Jiao Hongmiao, and the ones who were embarrassed were Jiang Yingcheng who was huddled behind her beauty Imperial Father, with only a pair of big eyes peeking out.
[Wow, Uncle Jiao came to our door!]
Didn't you say that you would avoid Uncle Jiao and send it to Capital City? Why was it still discovered?!
Jiao Hongmiao:"..."
Jiao Hongmiao stretched out a hand, spread his five fingers apart, and made a very conspicuous "five": "The rest of you, I want Five-Tenths Share!"
The voice was loud and impactful, full of ignorance and ignorance about the past.
He originally wanted to get them all, but he heard that they were all obtained by Emperor Mingze personally suppressing bandits. He was not very confident in asking for this money.
But!
Obviously the ministers following Emperor Mingze have received funds from their own departments, so he Ministry of Revenue must also have it!
Ministry of Justice Minister Wen Zhi quickly added, "We only need One-Tenth Share!"
Kan Hongxi:"Second."
Jiang Yanchuan:"..."
All the ministers present. "..."
Upright Officials present did not even dare to take a breath, looking at several people with shock and admiration, their eyes were bright--
You are real warriors!
What's the difference between asking for so much and asking for the little guy's life?!
Ministry of Rites Minister Chu Jiaxu turned around and walked in the direction of Carriage where Pastries was installed, trying to comfort the little guy with Pastries when he first started crying.
Minister of Personnel Chu Dong rushed to find the little kid's favorite toy these days. In his hurry, he forgot which Carriage it was in, so he had to look for it one by one.
The ministers each found something to do for themselves, and the scene became "lively" in an instant.
Jiao Hongmiao did not look back, but he also felt the movements of this group of people. His expression was blank. Just when he was about to speak, he heard a very sudden and sad cry suddenly sounded in the carriage: [Wow ah ah--]
[Cheng, Chengcheng only has so little money left, why, why do you have to give out so much!!]
She was crying miserably in her heart, but she was extremely forbearing on her face.
Jiang Yingcheng grasped the sleeves of her beauty Imperial Father, her mouth tightened, and her eyes were filled with hot air.
[Woooooo--]
Jiao Hongmiao:"..."
Wen Zhi:"..."
Kan Hongxi:"..."
The originally determined eyes of several people were filled with only fear.
No one told them that this money belongs to the little guy!!
But the opening had already been opened, and they couldn't stop suddenly for no reason. Jiao Hongmiao now felt extremely regretful that he had stood at the front without even a place to hide, and he had just met the little guy's sad eyes.
His mind was running rapidly, trying to solve the dilemma at hand.
Before he could think of a suitable solution, the little guy inside was coaxed by himself.
To be precise, she was coaxed by her "System Bro"--
[Eh?!]
[Can you get money in Xian Town?!]
