"Obviously Mingqi was restored to the title of King De because he made great contributions to my great fortune, and this is the compensation we gave him! Why do we suddenly ask him to pay 10 million taels again?" Emperor Jinghe angrily said: "Xiang Cao ! This is not a business deal, we have to keep our word!!"
"But I didn't tell them about this." Cao Yi spread her hands, "It's not that I won't recover, it's just that the court is in too much difficulty now. Can't you please ask Prince Yu's Mansion for some support? Prince Yu is your biological brother, and he has always been They are all eager for justice!"
"you¡¡"
Before the emperor could curse, Nangong Ji interrupted, "Just tell Princess Yu about this! The veteran knows that Princess Yu is holding a breath in her heart, and many people are gossiping about Prince Yu. , saying that he was demoted after being depressed for a while, and he was born without the life of an emperor, not even the life of a prince."
Emperor Jinghe was stunned for a moment, then became furious, "Who said that? Who dares to spread rumors? Ah?! I will catch them and throw them into the prison! Can they be involved in the affairs of the prince and the throne? Also, you dare to insult the prince of the empire you should be punished!!"
"I have also heard such rumors among the people, but with so many people talking about it, how can we arrest them all?" Cao Yi did not give the emperor a chance to change the subject: "Your Majesty, Prince Yu's Mansion will definitely be able to come up with 10 million yuan." ! Princess Yu is probably willing too! Like last time, we don¡¯t need them to pay it all at once, but just pay it within a year, so there won¡¯t be much pressure on them, right?¡±
Nangong Ji also added: "Your Majesty, don't believe it. Just ask Prince Su and you will know. They give out 10 to 20 million taels of silver a year, so there is no problem!"
"this¡¡"
Emperor Jinghe was different from the compromise he had made just now. He gritted his teeth and said, "Let me think about this later Now you think about it, how can you make the clan members willingly give up the money?"
Ten million taels of silver is no small matter.
Everyone understands that this cannot be solved at once.
It is still necessary to allow Emperor Jing He to struggle for a few days, and finally compromise after being unable to bear the pressure.
After hearing this, Ge Songdao said simply: "Your Majesty, let's not talk about Prince Yu What do you think Prince Yi should do?"
"What!?"
Emperor Jing He wanted to strangle him to death, "Hong Lian! You have to have a certain bottom line when doing this! Ming Jing is not as rich as Ming Qi, and he will never be able to get 10 million taels!"
"If you press hard, you can still get five million taels." Ge Songdao said: "Prince Yi's Palace has always been doing business, and because of the relationship between Prince Yi and Prince Yu, they profited a lot from Prince Yu's Palace products. Sales channels, so profits are huge! Again, King Yi doesn¡¯t know that we are planning to confer the title of prince on Crown Prince Yi! Now that there is such an opportunity, how can he not support us with all his strength? "
After a pause, he added: "You don't have to worry about the problem of too many princes. The prince has not been born yet. Besides, even if he is born, the number of people should not be large. Adding two or three princes will not cause any problems."
"But at this juncture, by canonizing Prince Yi as Prince, will it send a bad message to others?" Zhong Chang had objections at this time, "You know, Prince Yi is in this big event During the battle, he took the lead and was invincible, winning the admiration and admiration of all the generals and soldiers!"
"Xiang Zhong, you don't understand. Although Prince Yi is very popular, in fact, the one they admire the most is Prince Yu." Ge Songdao shook his head, "Compared to personal bravery, the invention of wooden handle grenades, hell cocktails, His Royal Highness Prince Yu, who saved hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians with a hot air balloon, is a god-like savior!"
"Well, Ge Xiang is right." Feng Yuqiang nodded and said: "Except for the special period of Taizu Taizong, we in Dakang have never had a bellicose emperor ascend the throne. Everyone knows that the prince Yi Wang is not suitable."
"So we might as well make an exception, so that all the clan children of this generation, as well as the noble children, can spend money to buy their father's title, which means that their family does not need to be downgraded." Nangong Ji proposed a bolder idea He thought, "Anyway, they don't pose any threat to the court or the throne. At most, the court can provide some more salary money every year. When times get better, are they still afraid that they can't afford it?"
"Brother Nangong, what you said is wonderful!"
Cao Yi clapped her hands lightly when she saw this, "Wonderful! In this way, I don't know how many people will pay astronomical amounts of money for the title!"
Emperor Jinghe felt a little sad when he heard them discussing the throne, but he had nothing to do.
Who said he didn¡¯t have a son?
&sp; ¡°Yes!¡±
Next to him, Nangong Ji said: "According to the previous household registration land reports from various government agencies, there are more than 7 million acres of vacant land at the junction of these three provinces. If it is carefully clarified and re-planned, I am sure that it can at least be Add five million acres!¡±
The emperor's breathing suddenly became rapid: "So many!?"
"If we clarify it carefully, there may be more." Nangong Ji nodded and said: "That is the alluvial plain of the Yellow River. The floods that Wu Shangshu has focused on controlling in the past two years are here. Once the floods are removed, such fertile fields will , it should be at least ten taels of silver per acre!
We sell it to the poor people in the surrounding area for only eight taels per mu. They will definitely rush to buy it! At that time, the contradictions of concentrated annexation of surrounding land can also be resolved, so that the people can take a good breath. "
"This is good! Send capable ministers to clarify the plan!"
Emperor Jinghe patted the imperial desk and became happy: "In this way, at least one or two million households can be settled, right?"
Nangong Ji said: ¡°It¡¯s almost this amount.¡±
"Wait a minute." Jing He Dihu said: "That's not right! These lands are not ours! Most of them belong to ordinary people who are fleeing famine! How can we sell their land?"
"This is simple." Nangong Ji said: "We will officially settle them in the Gyeonggi area, and then give them land to build fixed houses and settle down! As long as they want to obtain these two things, they have to sign a document and give up their land rights in their hometown."
"Will they agree?"
"Definitely! After all, life is obviously better in the Gyeonggi area." Nangong Ji said, "After all, this is the emperor's feet. Who doesn't want to make money and live here?"
"good!"
Emperor Jinghe thought for a while and then said, "Go and talk to them. If they don't want to, let them go back. Those who stay will have to treat them badly."
"yes!"
Nangong Ji bowed and said.
With these words from the emperor, he felt at ease.
