Morning next day
The emperor was sitting on the dragon throne listening to the eldest prince talking.
"Father, this time I have raised a total of one million taels! Three hundred thousand taels of which have been used to purchase grain and shipped to the south for disaster relief. Five hundred thousand taels have been used to purchase medicinal materials and shipped to areas with severe epidemics to fight the epidemic! East! The epidemic situation in Ling Kingdom has been brought under control, all thanks to the prescription prescribed by Divine Doctor Jia from the Valley of Divine Doctors. That prescription has miraculous effects on fighting the plague. It can be said that the medicine can cure the disease! Severe cases will get better within five days of drinking it, and those with mild symptoms will get better after drinking it. The symptoms disappeared in the last day or two! For those who are not sick, drinking a bowl every day can play a preventive role! Now Erchen has sent people to Doctor Jia to ask for a prescription. This time, all the medicinal materials purchased by Erchen are It is prepared according to the prescription of Doctor Jia! The remaining 200,000 taels are also purchased for food for Yum who is suffering from drought in the north!"
The emperor nodded with satisfaction after hearing this: "Okay! You did a good job in accepting the gift!"
Finally, the pressure on the treasury has been relieved!
Sure enough, the flames are high when everyone adds firewood!
The eldest prince said humbly: "I can't do this alone, and I don't dare to take credit! It was all possible with the full support of the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty!"
The eldest prince did not forget to win over the hearts of the court officials.
The Minister of the Ministry of Industry immediately said: "The eldest prince is thoughtful. Without the eldest prince's call, how could there be such an effect of a hundred responses! Moreover, the eldest prince set an example and donated two hundred thousand taels!"
"Yes, the eldest prince really cares about the world and cares about the country and the people! He is truly a model for the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty!"
... ...
Other officials also spoke out to praise the eldest prince.
The emperor was very happy after hearing this: "Haha... Okay! All the beloved ministers are the pillars of our Nalan Kingdom, the parents and officials of the people! They really love the people like their children! The parents and officials in our Nalan Kingdom who love the people like their children are really the treasures of the people. Blessings, blessings to the court! You are really a good example for officials of all dynasties!"
Remember to donate more in the future! Keep this example going! It will definitely be famous forever! The emperor added a few words silently in his heart.
Then I don’t have to worry about the treasury being empty!
All the civil and military officials in the dynasty quickly expressed their loyalty one by one: "Officials should be diligent and love the people, and worry about the world first. This is what it should be! It should be!"
"Eating the emperor's salary and worrying about the emperor! It should be done!"
"When the country is in trouble, every man has a responsibility. As a parent and an official, he should have the money to contribute and the strength to contribute..."
The eldest prince looked at Nalan Jinnian and said with a smile, "Uncle Jin Wang also donated ten thousand taels this time!"
The difference between 200,000 taels and 10,000 taels is not that big!
And who in the court doesn’t know that Uncle Jin Wang is rich? !
The food in Jianghuai Mansion in one month is more money than many ministers in the court earn in their lifetime
After speaking, the eldest prince glanced at Lin Yushi again!
I always impeach myself, but this time I should impeach King Jin!
When Lin Yushi heard this, he frowned. He was so poor that he donated a thousand taels, but King Jin only donated ten thousand taels
King Jin is famously wealthy. He is in charge of salt, iron, tea and water transportation. Jianghuai Mansion is his fiefdom. Jianghuai Mansion is the richest state capital!
The extremely wealthy Ning family of Jianghuai Weaving and the Yang family of Jiangyang Weaving are both in Jianghuai Mansion. They pay a lot of taxes every year, and none of them are paid to the court!! This annual income is simply difficult to budget!
I heard that he gives Princess Hui’an this and that every day!
He just met King Jin today and went to the production room of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to tell him that he wanted to make twenty sets of summer clothes for men and women, thirty sets of autumn clothes for men and women, thirty sets of summer clothes for men and women, and also made rings. , purse, veil and the like!
Ordinary people only make one or two sets of new clothes a year, but King Jin makes dozens of sets in a quarter, so his clothes are different every day!
This is simply too luxurious!
Just a few sets of clothes and money would be enough to donate a hundred and eighty thousand taels!
Lin Yushi immediately stood up: "King Jin receives a lot of food from Jianghuai Prefecture every year, right? Taxes are taken from the people and used for the people! Isn't this donation of 10,000 taels too little?! This Many civil and military officials throughout the dynasty donated more than 10,000 taels, but King Jin only donated 10,000 taels. Isn't it too stingy?"
The emperor shook his head: "Yu Shi Lin only knows one, but not the other. King Jin has done a lot for the court! He..."
The emperor didn't say any more when he said this, because he saw a little blood coming out of Nalan Jinnian's shoulder, dyeing the light golden robe red!
And the blood stain is still gradually expanding!
The emperor stood up: "Brother Seventeenth Emperor, are you injured? Imperial Physician! Call the Imperial Physician quickly! Resign from the court! We'll discuss it tomorrow if we have anything to do!"
Lin Yushi: "..."
He hasn't even finished impeaching him yet! A man as rich as King Jin should spend one million or several hundred thousand taels for disaster relief!
All the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty said: "......"
~
The emperor personally helped Nalan Jinnian back to Zichen Palace and asked all the doctors from the imperial hospital to treat him.
At this moment, the Taiyuan Hospital was bandaging Nalan Jinnian's wounds.
The emperor looked at the wound on Nalan Jinnian's shoulder, which actually penetrated the entire shoulder. He was furious in his heart, who did it
How audacious!
He must kill all nine of his tribes!
After the imperial doctor bandaged Nalan Jinnian's wound.
The emperor then asked: "My dear, how is King Jin's injury?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the injury is not too serious, and there are signs of healing. Now it is just pulling on the wound, causing the wound to open again, so it is bleeding. If the wound does not get worse, there is no need to worry! It's just that because the ribs are broken, it should not be too much Move, need to rest.
In addition, the weather is getting hotter and hotter now. Move around less to avoid sweating too much, which will worsen the wound. Do not wet the wound. Wet water will slow down the healing of the wound, and it is also easy to fester and worsen. "
After hearing this, the emperor looked at Nalan Jinnian with dissatisfaction: "Your bones are broken. If you don't stay in the palace to recuperate today, why come here to go to court! I don't see you so diligent on weekdays! You don't go to court for nine and a half days out of ten." !”
Could it be that the wound was pulled during the salute just now, so it opened
Nalan Jinnian said calmly: "Today is exactly the tenth day since my brother last went to the morning court."
Emperor: "......"
"I have to show up to let the emperor know that my brother is not dead!"
The emperor almost choked to death at Nalan Jinnian's words!
Seeing this, the Imperial Hospital wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh, so they could only leave quickly: "Your Majesty, I will go down and get medicine for King Jin."
The emperor waved his hand: "Okay, all of you, please step aside! By the way, King Jin has been suffering from internal heat recently, so please put some yellow lotus in the prescription!"
Nalan Jinnian: "..."
"Yes!" Taiyuan Hospital lowered his head and hurriedly retreated. He almost couldn't help laughing!
King Jin's health has been very good since he was a child, but no matter how good he is, there will be times when he gets sick, injured, or poisoned and needs to take medicine, but King Jin is afraid of hardship!
Although he didn't say anything and drank the concoction every time, the emperor and the royal physician who had seen him grow up since he was a child still knew!
