Empress will not return to the palace tonight

Chapter 601 Conditions
"Tell me, what did you talk about?" the emperor asked in a deep voice.

The emperor didn't bother to pay attention to this series of fallacies of the third brother.

Some things can be discussed in such a place, but the eradication of the locust plague is a major event, and they are so child's play, and they don't know what the result will be.

"Back to the emperor, Shen Qingyang made a request on behalf of Lanshui Pavilion, hoping that the emperor will welcome Bai Lier into the palace. They don't ask for the status of empress, but only the status of a noble concubine." Pei Jingqi looked at the emperor and said in a low voice.

He was not in a hurry or worried, because no matter what Bai Lier's status was in the end, she was Pei Jingqi's woman, and this was the emperor's promise to him.

The emperor smiled when he heard the words, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"The people in Lanshui Pavilion really have a good plan. As long as their women marry into the royal family, it means that the power of Blueshui Pavilion will start to infiltrate our Dayan Dynasty, which means that they will start to intervene in the struggle for secular imperial power. Your Majesty, once you agree , Cangyun Sect and Fukong Temple will definitely not be able to sit still." Pei Jingqi said hastily.

"The Cangyun Sect tried it before, but it didn't work. As for the Fukong Temple... they wanted to start with the queen mother at first, but after failing to get any benefits, they should have other plans now, but they haven't revealed it yet. " said the emperor with a sneer.

"Then... will the emperor agree to the conditions of the Blue Water Pavilion?" Pei Jingqi asked in a low voice.

"Agreed." The emperor's eyes flashed, and he said coldly.

Since it is a foregone conclusion that the three ancient sects will enter the Yan Dynasty, he will play with them and wipe them out completely.

"They still have one condition!" Pei Jingqi said in a low voice.

After the emperor heard this, he really wanted to beat him up.

This person probably drank too much wine yesterday, his mind was not clear, and he agreed to one condition after another.

"Say." The emperor said coldly.

Pei Jingqi was also a little embarrassed. After he laughed a few times, he said in a low voice: "Shen Qingyang said that the potion used by Lanshui Pavilion to kill locusts was passed down from ancient times. The formula is very precious. What is needed The materials are also very precious, so the price is not cheap, they can't provide us for free, and we have to pay for it."

"How much?" the emperor asked in a low voice.

"Two million taels of silver per year. As long as there is a plague of locusts in the Yan Dynasty, they will kill them." Pei Jingqi looked at the emperor and said a little nervously.

As if he was afraid that the emperor would not agree, he hurriedly said: "Shen Qingyang wanted 300 million taels of silver before, and after working with him for a long time, it was only possible to reduce it to 200 million taels."

The emperor was silent after hearing this. Two million taels of silver is not a small amount. To be honest, locust plagues occurred every year in the Yan Dynasty, either here or there. Sometimes it was serious, sometimes it was lighter, but it happened every year.

Locusts are simply a nightmare for ordinary people. They can almost eat up all the crops, leaving everyone without a harvest. The annual loss is more than 200 million taels?

"Promise them." The emperor nodded and said.

"Yes." Pei Jingqi nodded hastily.

"Anything else?" The emperor looked down at the memorial in his hand for a while, and found that Pei Jingqi was still standing in front of him. He frowned and asked in a low voice.

"No." Pei Jingqi nodded hastily, and suddenly came to his senses, and said with a smile: "The minister will retire."

The emperor didn't let him go, he didn't dare to go at all!

But now he has become the most annoying one.
