My Red Mansion Career

Chapter 87 Fire Fighting

Chapter 87 Fire Fighting
As soon as Jia Yu's words came out, the atmosphere in the imperial study suddenly solidified.

Emperor Changping looked at him in disbelief: "Jia Yu... what did you say? Who do you want me to let go home?"

Now that he has used foul language, Jia Yu also took the risk: "I said, please allow your majesty to allow my eldest sister Jia Yuanchun to go home and reunite her with her family."

"hiss……"

Dai Quan on the side looked at Jia Yu, and then secretly looked at Emperor Changping, as if he had thought of something.

After a long time, Emperor Changping's voice seemed to float from the clouds.

"Jia Aiqing, if I remember correctly, although Jia Yuanchun and you are called siblings, we have actually been on the fifth server, right?"

"Your Majesty has a good memory, indeed."

Jia Yu bowed and said: "In fact, the earliest relationship between the [-]th room in Jinling and the [-]th room in Shenjing was in the third and fourth servers.

The relationship between the two parties is relatively unfamiliar on weekdays, otherwise when Wei Chen came to seek refuge in Rongguo Mansion a few months ago, he would not have been almost beaten to death by several disciples. "

"Well...I understand."

Emperor Changping stopped talking.

The noble man was beheaded for five generations.

In fact, let alone five generations, the relative relationship between ordinary people exceeds two or three generations and has already begun to become unfamiliar.

Once you are beyond the fifth generation, you are no different from a stranger.

Just when Emperor Changping wanted to say something, the young eunuch hurriedly came to report.

"Your Majesty, the Queen and Concubine Wu are outside seeking an audience."

Hearing this, Jia Yu and Dai Quan looked at each other, and an unpleasant feeling arose in their hearts at the same time.

"Xuan!"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... you have to make the decision for me!"

Soon, a cry sounded outside the door, and then an enchanting figure rushed in and knelt down in front of the dragon case.

"Your Majesty... Jin'er has always been honest, how could he do such evil things.

If you ask him to come up with 100 million taels of silver within three days, you are killing him! "

Only then did Jia Yu clearly see the appearance of the woman kneeling in front of Emperor Changping, and thought to herself: "This must be Concubine Wu, right? No wonder she is rumored to be favored by Emperor Changping. She is indeed a beauty."

She was seen wearing a gorgeous dress made of delicate brocade, with flowing skirts like clouds.

The top is made of dark red silk, embroidered with a golden lotus pattern and inlaid with delicate gold threads.

Although his figure is not very tall, he is extremely handsome. Coupled with his fair and tender face and peach blossom eyes, he has quite a bit of the style of later generations.

Just as Jia Yu was secretly looking around, a figure walked in.

Queen Bai slowly walked up to Emperor Changping, knelt down and saluted, then smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that you just issued an order to punish Jin'er and asked him to hand over 100 million taels of silver within three days?"

"Yes."

Emperor Changping snorted, "I sent someone to declare the decree to the traitor.

These confessions were obtained from the interrogation of Jia Yu and Dai Quan during the siege of the Jinsha Gang last night.

It is clearly written in these confessions that the Jinsha Gang has contributed more than 160 million taels of silver to our "King of Wu" over the years.

Ha... I really didn't expect that my son is actually proficient in the art of Tao Zhu. This is really a good way to make money! "

Looking at Emperor Changping who seemed to be smiling happily, Concubine Wu, who had been his bed partner for many years, felt her heart grow cold.

She knew very well how happy Emperor Changping was smiling at this moment, and how angry he was inside. "More than 160 million taels of silver. How much does my palace cost each year? Dai Quanqian, can you tell me?"

Dai Quan said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the palace's expenses last year were more than 96 taels. It was similar in previous years, but it never exceeded 100 million taels."

"Look, you gave birth to a good son. In these years alone, he has made more than 160 million taels of silver from the local government.

This is just the silver he asked for from one gang. As for the others, I won't be able to find them for a while.

I just want to ask, what does he want to do?
I'm not dead yet, so he can't wait to be the master of the family? "

"His Majesty!"

Concubine Wu was so frightened that her beauty turned pale. The Heavenly Family has been ruthless since ancient times.

Faced with the temptation of the throne, are there many examples of fathers, sons and brothers turning against each other?

If Emperor Changping really thought that his son was interested in spying on the throne, it would definitely be a disaster.

She stepped forward and knelt down, hugged Emperor Changping's leg and cried: "Your Majesty... Jin'er is a filial child, he definitely doesn't have the courage.

Besides, the Jinsha Gang is nothing more than a mere underworld gang. Those people dare to say anything in order to survive, but what they say may not be true. "

"That may not be true?"

Emperor Changping snorted, "If Jia Yu and Dai Quan were encircling the Jinsha Gang, I might still believe it if the general manager of the Wu Palace was not there."

But now, the corpse of that damn eunuch is still lying in the Dongcheng Bingma Si Yamen. How do you expect me to believe it?

Emperor Changping's words were like a thunderbolt hitting Concubine Wu, which also made everything she wanted to say get stuck in her throat.

The general manager of Prince Wu's Mansion personally participated in the spoils-sharing banquet of the Jinsha Gang. This is already complete and iron-clad evidence. How can you excuse her son?
At this time, the White Queen advised from the side.

"Your Majesty, Jin'er was also confused for a moment.

Do you think there are so many people in Prince Wu’s mansion?Just eating, drinking and having diarrhea every day costs a lot of money.

If you want to buy some more things you like, the little money allocated by the court every year will not be enough. "

"Not enough money?"

Emperor Changping slapped the dragon case and roared: "His annual salary in the Wu Palace is 1 taels of silver and [-] dou of rice.

Isn't this much money enough for him to spend?
If you look outside, you will see that the annual expenses of ordinary people's well-to-do families are only dozens of taels.

What I have given him is more money than ordinary people can earn in ten lifetimes. He is not satisfied yet. What does he need so much money for? "

Looking at Emperor Changping's fierce voice, everyone lowered their heads tremblingly.

The White Queen said helplessly: "Your Majesty, what do you think we should do?

After all, he is your son, so you can’t let him go, right?

If a child makes a mistake, we as parents are also responsible. You can't blame everything on the child, right?
Who told you as a father that you don’t have enough money? "

Jia Yu looked at Queen Bai who was comforting her softly, and secretly admired her in her heart.

As expected of someone who has firmly held the position of queen for so many years, she speaks well.

You see, when she opened her mouth, she spoke in the tone of an ordinary people's family.

This diluted the presence of the royal family and eliminated most of the tense atmosphere of intrigues within the royal family. Emperor Changping's anger could also be extinguished for the most part.

At the same time, you also blamed him in a joking tone, saying that you didn't give me enough money, and you didn't allow your son to go out and make money on his own.

"Sure enough, it's not easy for anyone to become a queen." Jia Yu's evaluation of Queen Bai has reached a new level.
