As soon as September arrives, there will be a little bit of autumn.
Yuxi lay in the medicated bath, drowsy. Qiulan and the others would heat water in the tub after a while.
After soaking for two quarters of an hour, I rinsed it again with clean water, and then took a beautifying cream and applied it on my body.
Yuxi put on her clothes and said to the grandmother, "Mother, you can leave the medicinal bath to Tong Fang in the future, don't be so tired." Tong Fang has already learned 70% to 80% of the skills of the grandmother. That’s enough.
Mother Quan shook her head and said, "Leave it all to her. I can rest assured. Besides, it is boring to eat and sleep every day. It is better to do something so that the time will pass quickly."
Yuxi said amused; "Mother always said that I can't be free, and you are not the same now."
The grandmother also sighed and said: "I used to think that I should be leisurely in my old age, but now that I am old, I find that I have nothing to do when I am idle, and I have become a useless person."
When Yuxi heard this, he smiled and said, "Then I won't be able to rest until I get old."
The grandmother asked tentatively: "In another ten years, you will be in your forties. Are you really willing to let go and leave it to Brother Hao?" In fact, this is very euphemistic. She thinks that after another ten years, Yuxi Is reluctant to let go of the right in his hands. It's not that Yuxi misses power, but that he can't stand it when he gets used to it. She has this experience now.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "No matter how precocious Brother Hao is, it is not appropriate to take over power at the age of 20. You must practice for two more years." After a pause, Yuxi smiled and said: "Besides, not in power, not It means there is nothing to do."
Mother Quan felt that she was really old and couldn't keep up with Yuxi's thinking: "It's getting late, you should go to bed."
Yuxi lied on the bed with a hum, and fell asleep after a while.
Grandma is getting older and will not be able to watch the night. After going out, Meilan was called in, and she went back to her house.
Good news was received early the next morning. The batch of gold and silver held by Zijin will be able to enter the city in the afternoon.
Xu Wu thought for a while and said, "I heard that there are more than three hundred carriages. Princess, should they be allowed to enter the city at night." The scene was so spectacular, the people would definitely follow it to watch the excitement. This is a trivial matter, mainly because he thinks it is too public.
Yuxi said with a loud voice, "No, just send someone to take care of it. It's enough to maintain law and order and avoid trouble."
In the afternoon, Shi Jin brought more than 300 carriages into the city. The people heard that the boxes on the carriages were all gold and silver, and they flocked to watch.
A short, fat man stood in the restaurant, looking at the horse-drawn carriages on the street, and said in disbelief: "How much silver does it cost if so many boxes are all gold and silver? Not eighty-eight million? "He doubts the truthfulness of this news.
A man in satin clothes opened the fan in his hand and said, "It is true. I heard this news from Wu Jinbao. These gold and silver are Wu's furniture, worth tens of millions."
The short fat man still didn't believe it: "Why is the Wu family willing to hand in so much money?" If it was him, he would rather die than hand it in. With this money, future generations can no longer worry about eating and drinking.
The satin man shook his head and said, "I don't know this. If you want to confirm whether these boxes are filled with gold or silver, you have to open the boxes."
The short fat man smiled and pointed to the fierce officers and soldiers holding knives and guns next to the convoy and said, "Who has the courage? Don't let it go?" The northwest is not in chaos like the capital. The people here live and work in peace and contentment, and naturally no one will die. To grab this batch of gold and silver. There are so many people on the street, but they are all watching the excitement.
At first, many people were puzzled, but as these boxes were sent to the vault, no one doubted it anymore. And this news also caused a sensation in the entire Pickaxe City.
Shen Chunting, Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, came to receive this batch of belongings in person, and he laughed from ear to ear as he watched boxes of gold and silver carried into the silver vault! With this money, you won't have to worry about money again at least next year. Well, it would be better if you could come a few times more.
Zijin put this batch of gold and silver into the treasury, and his whole body was relaxed. At the beginning, Zijin also felt that there would be nothing wrong with so many officers and soldiers escorting him, so he was not worried. But six big boxes containing gold were replaced in the middle. Those people's techniques were very secretive. Thousands of boxes have been replaced by six, who can detect it! It's a pity that these people didn't expect that Guo Xun was an expert in this area, and soon discovered that it was wrong and chased the gold back in the shortest time.
This incident caused Zi Jin to be so cold and sweaty that he didn't dare to take it lightly afterwards. In the following days, Viola hadn't had a good night's sleep, and was afraid that something similar would happen again.
Looking at Zi Jin and Guo Xun, who were haggard and thin, Yuxi smiled and said, "Thanks for the two of you." Yuxi knew what happened in the middle.
It was relatively peaceful for Jiangnan to get to Haocheng, but more than 300 carriages and thousands of boxes were escorted. If the other party prepares early, it is easy to go wrong. In case of an accident, Yuxi asked Guo Xun to lead someone to follow.
Guo Xun said calmly: "This is what I should do." Perhaps due to the influence of the environment, Guo Xun is no longer as open and generous as before, but instead gives people a gloomy feeling.
What did Zijin say in front of Yuxi: "Wang Hao, why did you send this batch of gold and silver to the official treasury in front of the people?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "Don't you think it is a good thing to let everyone know that the government is rich?" The government is rich, and the people are not at ease.
Zijin thinks about it too.
Guo Xun asked, "Wang Hao, I heard that the prince is going to send troops to the North. This money is the military expenses for sending troops. Is this true?" Guo Xun is well informed and well informed about Yuxi's big moves. normal.
Yuxi nodded and said, "Yes. The prince is going to send troops to attack the Northern Captives next spring."
There was a touch of excitement on Guo Xun's face: "Good, good, good." Sending troops to the north to exterminate this group of king and eight laozi was his long-cherished wish. Now he has finally waited until he is not excited.
After speaking, he realized that he was a little too excited, and immediately explained: "The subordinate is a little gaffe."
Yuxi shook her head and said, "I can understand that the prince has waited for this day for more than ten years." When she agreed to attack the North Captive, Yun Qing was obviously relieved, and she still remembers it still.
Guo Xun said with some regret: "It's a pity that I can't go on the battlefield anymore, otherwise I must avenge my brothers." The hatred of Bei Gao has penetrated into their bones. The North Captives were immortal, and they were ashamed of their dead brothers and soldiers.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "Even if we can't go to the battlefield, as long as we do what we have at hand, it's the same."
Guo Xun went out of the study and did not go back to Liyuan directly, but went to find Huo Changqing.
After Guo Xun went out, Zi Jin said: "Wang Hao, next year, the prince will send troops to the north, and I want to follow along." Although Qianwei Camp is good, it is not as happy as going to the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Yuxi didn't object to Zijin following along: "This matter has to be agreed with Yu Zhi and the two children. I said it doesn't count."
Zijin immediately suffered a bit, and it was not a big problem to get Yu Zhi to agree, but it was not easy to get the two children to agree. But she also knew that since Yuxi had spoken, there was no room for bargaining.
After having breakfast the next day, Liuer asked Yuxi: "Mother, I heard that yesterday’s aunt Jin brought back tens of millions of dollars. Is this true?" Liuer followed the general affairs, and the news was better than The triplets are smarter.
When the triplets heard the news, they stared at Yuxi with wide eyes. I think they only have twenty taels in a month, but I heard that this amount is enough for a family of ordinary people to chew for a year.
Yuxi nodded and said, "It's true, but only ten million." Wu Kuo rounded up an integer.
Liu Er asked only because he was curious, and was shocked when he heard Yuxi's words: "It turned out to be true."
Brother Rui said hurriedly: "Mother, so much money, wouldn't it be spent in a lifetime?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "Do you know how much money was spent in attacking the three provinces of Yungui and Guizhou last year? More than eight million taels of silver."
Brother Rui exclaimed: "Why do you want so much money?"
Yuxi said: "Fighting is burning money. Ten million sounds like a lot, but it's only enough to fight a big battle."
Brother You couldn't help but said, "Daddy spends a lot of money outside fighting all year round?"
Yuxi nodded and said, "Yes! It's because your father has been fighting all year round, so not only the government's treasury, but also our own treasury are empty."
Brother You murmured: "That father is really a prodigal." In these years, his father has fought no less than ten times, and this is a sea of money. Isn't he just a prodigal.
Yuxi pursed his lips and said, "It can't be counted like that. Although wars cost money, but your father won the wars, taxes will also be imposed on the places you conquer..."
Without waiting for Yuxi to finish, Brother Rui hurriedly inserted: "Mother, Dad has a lot of trophies after winning the battle. This is also a lot of money."
Yuxi looked at Brother Rui, but did not speak.
Brother Rui saw Yuxi's wink, and then lowered his head and said, "Mother, I was wrong." Yuxi had taught before that it is very impolite to interrupt when others are talking.
Yuxi said, "Don't have another time." In fact, it was a trivial matter to interrupt, but Yuxi felt that the more trivial things, the less conniving it would be. Because of the details, it is possible to better reflect a person's character and cultivation.
Brother Rui nodded hurriedly.
Yuxi then continued: "There are indeed trophies for winning the battle. But after the war is over, we must reward the officials who have contributed to the war, and also give pensions to the families of the soldiers who died in the war. In addition, the wounded soldiers must be resettled. Money." If there are too many casualties, the pension alone will be a heavy burden.
Suddenly, Liu'er said that it took so much money just to fight, and it turned out that it also included the expenses after the war!
The triplets have also gained insights.
Brother You asked: "Mother, now that I got such a large sum of money, is my father going to send troops again?" After a pause, Brother You asked: "Mother, is he going to send troops to the North?"
Yuxi was very surprised and asked, "How did you know?" She had never told the triplets about these things.
When Brother You saw this, he said with a little triumph: "Guess. Dad went to Yucheng and Xihai not long ago, and now he is going again, and he also took the eldest brother. It is estimated that he wanted to send troops to the north."
Yuxi looked at Brother You and said, "You guessed it right, your father is going to send troops to the North in the spring next year." It wouldn't be surprising if the old fritters in the officialdom could guess Yun Qing's plan based on this. But Brother You is only nine years old, and he can guess even if he doesn't touch these things on weekdays. I have to say that this child is very keen.
Brother Rui was excited: "Mother, I will go with my father next year to kill the Beibao Barbarians."
Naturally, Yuxi refused: "Study hard and practice martial arts, and you won't stop when you get out of school."
Brother Rui lowered his head and said nothing, his current martial arts is still very early!
Yuxi said, “If you want to run without learning to walk, you’ll just have a bruise and swollen face. But if you don’t know how well you can stand on the battlefield, you’ll lose your life.”
Brother Rui was not convinced when he heard this, he raised his head and asked Yuxi: "Mother, why can Big Brother follow Dad on the battlefield?"
Yuxi said, "Qihao followed your father to gain knowledge, not on the battlefield."
Seeing that Brother Rui wanted to say something more, Brother You hurriedly pulled Brother Rui and said, "Mother, we should go to class too. If we are late, Mr. will punish us."
Yuxi waved his hand and said, "Go!"
Yuxi went to the front yard after breakfast, looked at the pile of folds on the table and picked up a copy. This booklet was written by Yuan Ying, and it was just sent to ask Yuxi for money.
Yuxi smiled and put down the folder, and then opened another folder, which turned out to be for money again. Yuxi is in charge of government affairs and strictly controls various expenses. If you want money, you can, come up with a detailed charter. Otherwise, no money will be given.
Putting down the zhezi, Yuxi said to the outside: "Go and invite Master Tan and Liubu Shangshu over to discuss matters." It is time to announce the dispatch of troops to the North.
Tan Tuo, Fu Minglang and others were not surprised to hear that they were going to send troops to the north in the beginning of spring next year, because they had already guessed it before.
The first person who spoke was Shen Chunting, the Shangshu Shangshu: "Wang Hao, the northern barbarians are brave and good at fighting. This battle is very dangerous."
The official secretary An Zi Ke also said: "Wang Hao, if you want to fight, you should also attack the capital first." First, quickly occupy the capital.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "Many of the prince's brothers died in the hands of the northern captives. This bloody vengeance does not avenge the prince's sleep and food. He knew that he had received such a large sum of money, so he told me to send troops to destroy the northern captives."
An Zike didn't speak anymore, and the other adults also didn't say a word. Unless something is very important, they dare not argue with Yun Qing.
Tan Tuo asked: "Wang Hao, what do you mean?"
Yuxi sighed deliberately and said: "As a husband and wife, since the prince vowed to avenge this bloody revenge, how can I stop it. Otherwise, this matter will choke in his heart and make him unhappy."
With Yuxi's words, no one at the scene objected.
Tan Tuo said, "If that's the case, it's time to get ready." As soon as a war is fought, they have to go round and round. Fortunately, the current system is relatively complete, and there is no such thing as one person doing three things like before.
Yuxi summoned everyone to discuss this matter. Before the war, you must prepare sufficient grain and other necessary materials. After the war, there are also a lot of things to deal with.
Everyone nodded in unison.
