"Your Majesty, this is not for you."

Li Yi stood under the pavilion and explained.

"Even this world belongs to me, what else doesn't belong to me?" The old emperor waved his hand and said, "Don't dawdle like a girl, just get it quickly."

Bring it up and bring it up, this thing is a birthday present for Her Highness the Princess, if the old emperor has the face to black out even this, he has nothing to say.

Li Yi took the brocade box from the guard's hand again, walked up to the pavilion, and placed it on the table in the middle.

Emperor Jing showed curiosity on his face, and said, "Open me and have a look."

"Your Majesty, let's forget it." Li Yi looked at the bow he tied with a colored ribbon on the top, hesitating, "This is a gift for the eldest princess, and I finally wrapped it up like this."

Emperor Jing picked up the teacup, waved his hands impatiently and said, "Open it as soon as I tell you to, and wrap it up later."

Li Yi was a little helpless, so he could only untie the ribbon, put it aside, and said, "I opened it, Your Majesty, you must be mentally prepared."

"Why are you talking so much nonsense today..." Emperor Jing took a sip of his tea and said with a glance at him.

Li Yi moved the box a little farther away, opened the lid, and at the moment Emperor Jing spouted a sip of tea, he quickly closed the lid, and turned around holding the brocade box.

The old emperor was still blinded by the things in the box. Fortunately, he moved fast enough, and the price of the glazed statue that had been sprayed with tea might have to be discounted.

However, his clothes can function properly in the future. The clothes that have been sprayed with tea today are of great commemorative significance. It is definitely not too much to sell for a thousand and eight hundred taels of silver.

"Open, open..." Emperor Jing put down his teacup, stood up from the stone bench, his eyes widened.

"Your Majesty, don't get excited." Li Yi put the box on the table and opened the lid again.

Emperor Jing stood up, bent over, and saw that in the box was a glass statue of a woman about two feet high. The woman was wearing a palace costume, lifelike, and even the expression was vividly portrayed. Most of the statue was transparent. The pattern of the flower is clearly visible and colorful. Under the sunlight, it seems to flow with brilliance, which is extremely dazzling.

After all, it is the emperor, who has seen countless treasures. Although he has never seen such a large and exquisite glass statue, he quickly calmed down and asked suspiciously: "This is really a gift from you to Mingzhu." , when did you become so generous?"

Li Yi closed the lid, rewrapped the ribbon, and said, "I have always been generous to my friends, a mere glass statue is nothing."

Emperor Jing looked at him and asked: "It is said that colored glaze is a gift from heaven, and it is extremely rare even in the palace. How did you get such a large piece of colored glaze and carve it into the shape of a pearl?"

Li Yi put the box aside and said, "I entered the palace this time to tell His Majesty about this matter."

"It's not urgent, I have other things to ask you." Emperor Jing waved his hand, and a guard behind him spread a white cloth on the table with grids painted on it, which looked very familiar.

"What did the monk tell His Majesty just now?"

A few feet away from the pavilion, a middle-aged Taoist priest stood beside Chang De, looked at him and asked a question.

"The old man also just came here."

Chang De said something indifferently, then looked back at the middle-aged Taoist priest, and said, "I don't care what the monk Tan Yin and His Majesty said, but his medical skills are not as good as the imperial doctor's order. As for your surname Yuan , if you pay tribute to His Majesty again, this old man will not only let you go, but also your Daoist sect will not let you go."

"Director Chang's temper is exactly the same as it was decades ago." The middle-aged Taoist priest was not angry at Changde's reprimand, and said, "Pindao asked you to accompany me last time. At that time, Pindao left Beijing. Yuanyou didn't know about this, if not for that, he wouldn't let the Taoist disciples do such a thing."

"You don't have to apologize to me." Chang De said coldly: "If it weren't for His Majesty's kindness, do you think your Taoism can continue to be stable?"

"As for His Majesty's body, it seems that you, Chief Chang, have to take on more responsibility, right?" The middle-aged Taoist looked at him and said, "After all, the late emperor entrusted His Majesty to Chief Chang..."

The guards under the pavilion felt a little cold for no reason. After wrapping their clothes tightly, they looked at the pavilion again.

Eating with Li Yi has been experienced, but playing with him is the first time.

The old emperor also played beast chess, and the pieces were white jade. Li Yi pushed the old emperor's leopard to a desperate situation. The old emperor glanced at him and said with a smile: "A temporary failure is not a real failure. Some things can often get a bigger harvest."

He moved a chess piece casually, and Li Yicai realized that his bishop had been cornered.

Li Yi smiled and said, "Only when you are in a desperate situation can you survive. Sometimes, if you don't force yourself, you don't know that you have such great potential."

"Your Majesty, the servant will use Dumbo!"

"Bold!" A trace of anger appeared on Emperor Jing's face, "You dare to play chess with me... If so, don't blame me for being a gopher!"

"Your Majesty, how about this Tigger move!"

"If you can jump again, can you escape my net?"

"Come out, super invincible roaring dog in the universe!"

"I lost?"

"Well, Your Majesty lost, once the Roaring Dog comes out, who will fight?"

"How did my Xiaotian dog die just now?"

"I was bitten to death by my tiger."

"Isn't it the universe's super invincible Roaring Dog?"

"Your Majesty, when you use this trick, you have to shout it out to be the Roaring Sky Dog. If you don't shout out, you are the Chinese Pastoral Dog..."

"So, I really lost?"

"Your Majesty really lost."

Emperor Jing put down the chess pieces and said: "A few days ago, the School of Computing expelled thirteen students, all of whom were the children of the rich and powerful. There has been a discussion in the court that we should not give too much preferential treatment to the children of poor families, otherwise it will be unfair. Choose ten more, and you make some arrangements in advance."

"good."

Li Yi nodded. This time, the Cui family and the Qin family should not send their children to the fire pit again. If someone surnamed Qin and surnamed Cui come in, they can win them over. After all, they don’t even care about the lives of their clansmen. Family, no matter...

Emperor Jing nodded slightly, and said again: "I didn't want to mess up the foundation of the imperial court with the last account check. I didn't kill all the officials who voluntarily handed over the stolen money. These days, some officials in the imperial court proposed that they should set up a 'sinning bank'." The system, that is, according to the seriousness of the crimes committed by officials, exempting certain punishments with different amounts of silver, can relieve the worry of emptying the national treasury, what do you think?"

While packing up the chess pieces, Li Yi said, "As soon as the 'Atonement Silver' comes out, Jingguo will not be far away."

Emperor Jing frowned and asked, "So serious?"

I can't tell him that in another world, the system proposed by He Shen, the most corrupt official in the history, made the emperor and his own pockets bulge up, but the country decayed a lot and accelerated the demise of the Qing Dynasty …

This is how the Qing Dynasty perished. If Jing Guo dared to do this, it would end sooner or later!

Emperor Jing sighed, and said: "Although the national treasury received a large amount of money a few days ago, it was too short before, and it allocated 30,000 taels to the School of Mathematical Sciences, which is still a bit beyond the means..."

Li Yi raised his head and glanced at him. Is 30,000 taels the key point, and I saved that 30,000 taels for him, and kept it in the School of Mathematical Sciences as the start-up funds for various projects in the future. The stingy old emperor, Xue The old man asked for another hundred thousand taels, so why did he catch the college and not let him go

Li Yi sighed, and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there is a solution to the deficit of the national treasury."

"Really?" Emperor Jing looked up at him and asked, "Do you have a way to solve the deficit of the treasury?"

"To tell you the truth, your majesty, I came here today to solve your majesty's troubles."

Li Yi nodded. At this moment, he felt like a magic stick.
