"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? You have to take care of your dragon body!" After Lu Xu regained consciousness, he bent over and almost fell to his knees again.

However, one of his hands was held by Emperor Renxuan, and he was unable to move.

With no choice but to panic for a moment, he actually said these words.

When Emperor Renxuan heard this, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

What is taking care of the dragon body?

The implication is, are you not sick?

Dear Marquis of Zhengyang, I have treated you so well and yet you dare to speak like this. You are really audacious!

Emperor Renxuan was about to get angry, but then he thought about it and calmed down.

For the sake of money and food, I can endure it!

"Why are you still standing? Hurry and sit down."

When Lu Xu heard this, he suddenly trembled.

For some reason, when he looked at the smile on Emperor Renxuan's face, he always felt a little creepy.

This is not the Majesty I know!

Your Majesty can't be so kind to me!

For a moment, Lu Xu was so frightened that he could neither stand nor sit. He just stood there in a daze, at a loss.

Seeing this, Emperor Renxuan lost some of his patience and said angrily: "I tell you to sit down, so you sit down!"

"Okay! I obey." Hearing the familiar scolding, Lu Xu smiled happily and sat down quietly.

Emperor Renxuan was stunned when he saw this, and then put his hand on his forehead.

If others saw this scene, they might think that I was that notorious tyrant and evil king.

call!

Emperor Renxuan took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions again, and said patiently: "Lu Qing's family, I heard that you have been coming to Kaihui recently, and you have made a lot of money doing business!"

"Silver money? What kind of silver money? I don't know!" Lu Xu raised his head, his face full of confusion and astonishment.

When Emperor Renxuan heard this, he suddenly felt a pain in his head.

I immediately understood that extraordinary means should be used against extraordinary people.

Immediately there was a loud shout: "You still want to argue with me!"

"The prince has already told me, what kind of shopping mall did you open in Zhengdefang, Qianxi!"

"Every day there are people coming and going, and there is an endless stream of business."

"Go and ask, who else in the court doesn't know that you, Marquis Zhengyang, have made a lot of money?"

"The mountains of gold and silver piled up in the Zhengyang Hou Mansion are probably more substantial than the national treasury."

"I won't tell you more. Recently, there has been a flood in Canglan. The national treasury is still somewhat empty and unable to provide disaster relief."

"The civil and military donations raised by the entire dynasty were only 300,000 catties of grain, which was far from enough for the Canglan disaster."

"Since you, Marquis Zhengyang, have made a lot of money, you will make up for the remaining money and food!"

Emperor Renxuan snorted coldly and poured out his thoughts like beans from a bamboo tube.

However, seeing Lu Xu's dumbfounded look, he felt a little unbearable, so he sighed and added: "I borrowed this money from you, and when the treasury is full, I will return it to you with interest. "

This was also Emperor Renxuan's long-awaited plan. After all, how could there be any reason in the world for a king to take money from his ministers by force?

Emperor Renxuan thought that his words had given Lu Xu enough face, and he should have agreed no matter what.

But when these words fell on his ears, they were like a thunderbolt from the blue. He was stunned on the spot and could not recover for a long time.

He had also heard about the Canglan flood in recent days, but he never expected it to be so serious.

Three hundred thousand catties of grain is far from enough!

How much food is needed to provide complete disaster relief?

One million catties? Three million catties? Or five million catties?

He will make up for the remaining money and food...

This is going to cost me my life!

Lu Xu is the Marquis of Zhengyang and the Marquis of Daqian! Even in the three-acre land of Qiandu, he can be regarded as a top noble.

But even so, a year's salary is not enough to cover 100,000 catties of grain.

Of course, the family still has land, fiefs, and various rewards from the palace.

But... no matter what, even if he loses everything, sells his possessions, doesn't even want his house, and goes to the streets to beg.

If we continue to beg for ten or eight years, we will never be able to collect millions of kilograms of grain!

This...isn't this going to cost you your own life?

Lu Xu thought about it, thought hard, and thought about it. After all, he couldn't figure out what he had done during this period of time, which was so bold and so audacious that it disturbed the Holy Emperor and wanted to kill him. land!

Snap!

Plop!

Although I haven't figured out the reason yet, Lao Jianghu's mind is probably flexible.

His body softened, his steps slipped, and he fell to his knees with a snap.

Then his forehead came into close contact with the ground, making a popping sound.

"I am dead, I beg your majesty to forgive me!"

Um???

Emperor Renxuan looked at this scene and was a little confused.

Weren't you fine just now? Why are you about to die now?

"What's wrong with you? Why do you want me to punish you?"

"Weichen...Weichen doesn't know where he went wrong. Maybe Weichen has done some ridiculous things in recent days. Or maybe Weichen shouldn't always put Lu's Education Heart Sutra on Your Majesty has been troubled by what he said. In short, the humble minister made a mistake, and please punish him."

ah???

Even though this was the palace of Emperor Yi Renxuan, at this moment he could not help but slightly open his lips and shrink his pupils, looking dumbfounded.

Fortunately, Lu Xu was kneeling on the ground and could not see his expression, otherwise he might have lost the majesty of the emperor.

But I really can't blame him. After being the emperor for so long, this is the first time he has encountered such a request.

Regardless of whether they have committed a crime or not, the ministers will always kowtow to death and then shout for forgiveness, Your Majesty.

This Lu Xu is good, he looks like he won't give up until I punish him.

The world is really big and full of wonders.

"You...you're right."

"I am at fault! I beg your Majesty to punish me!"

Emperor Renxuan put his hand on his forehead and simply compromised: "Even if you are at fault, I will forgive you. Get up!"

ah?

When Lu Xu heard this, he straightened his head first, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

At first he thought he had done something ridiculous and disturbed His Majesty, so His Majesty took the opportunity to beat him.

But now it seems that His Majesty really thinks he is right!

If this is the case, why do you ask me to provide millions of catties of grain? Doesn't this cost people their lives?

If you are an ordinary person, if you encounter something like this, you will probably hold it in your heart.

But Lu Xu was a reckless warrior who was always outspoken, so he asked quite bluntly:

"Since Your Majesty thinks that I am not at fault, why do you ask me to provide millions of catties of grain?"

When Emperor Renxuan heard this, he immediately sighed and said, "I know this is the money you earned from doing business, and it is extremely difficult."

"But now that the country is in crisis, with just a little money, is it possible that the people of Canglan are still important?"

"Besides, didn't I just say that? I borrowed this money from you, and I will pay it back in the future. Do you understand?"
