Chapter 294 Raise the Army with Mines?

Qin Feng suddenly reacted: "It's amazing. If the Ministry of Personnel says it, you can deal with all officials. It's good to take the opportunity to win over people. Although the eldest prince is deposed now, he will always have a day to re-establish the Eastern Palace, and it will definitely be useful in the future."

"There have been many supporters of the chief. After all, the eldest brother is the eldest son of the legitimate son and always has some advantages. The Empress is really smart once, and this time she publicly broke up with the Chen family."

Since Emperor Yuan knew that the Chen family sent people to look for gold mines everywhere, he would definitely cut off the people sent by the Chen family. He would startle the snake, and the Chen family would also investigate it. It would look good when the queen was found.

As the saying goes, dog bites a dog, Qin Feng's interest in watching the show was already rising: "Then let them bite the dog. It's important for us to make money, otherwise how can we place the people brought back by Yuan's family?"

This is very clear, even Cao Jing felt that Qin Feng was their accomplice, and finally he said, "The prince of Zhenbei has entered Sui City. The prince must be careful of this person, and this person still has some skills."

"This person has already gone to Yuchun Tower with the eldest prince today, but there is nothing unusual." Qin Feng said: "If he really hates me for taking the quota selected by his son-in-law and running over to find bad luck, then he can only be blocked by soldiers and generals, and the water will be covered by soil."

Qin Feng spoke calmly. Cao Jing glanced at Jing Wuming and Long Qi beside him, and thought that except for the well-trained Jing Wuming, Long Qi's skills were unfathomable. If he was Ming, he would not have to be afraid, but only worried that the prince would use his secret tricks.

Qin Feng was not as worried as Cao Jing, so he asked back: "Can your father agree to let the eldest prince join the Ministry of Personnel?"

Xiao Lingyao frowned and said unhappily: "Since it is a transaction, my father agreed to the queen and the queen, and the father was the supreme emperor. If he was willing to face his face, he must have agreed. However, he just let the eldest brother join the Ministry of Personnel and become the sixth-rank official."

Qin Feng was silent. Although Emperor Yuan agreed to Xiao Lingzhao join the Ministry of Personnel, the position he arranged was considered after consideration. Not only was this Yuanwailang not a high rank in the Ministry of Personnel, but he was also a idle position!

It is said that some local officials have obtained this position by donating. To put it bluntly, donating means using money to exchange for officials. Some dynasties often turn a blind eye to this phenomenon of changing officials, and regard it as a contribution to the national treasury, and those who can be exchanged are all marginal official positions.

After the queen planned to release such a big piece of information, she only exchanged Xiao Lingzhao for such an official position. I wonder what she thought about now?

As Qin Feng said, the queen never expected that she would give out all the biggest secrets of the old man of the Chen family and only exchanged her son for the sixth-rank official of the Ministry of Personnel. She lost her appetite that night and lay on the phoenix bed full of sorrow.

He was not very affectionate in the past, but Emperor Yuan also gave him enough face to the Chen family. Since he became powerful after he ascended the throne, he began to turn against him ruthlessly.

She sent the Chen family to a free position first, and then used the crown prince to exchange for Chen Tianxiao to go north. She knew that it was a delaying strategy. Now Zhenbei Army is far away in Beiguan, and Zhaoer's crown prince position is still unable to be saved!

"I have been married to him for so many years, but I didn't expect him to be so cruel! Qiongan, do you think this exchange is worth it?"

Aunt Qiong'an stood on one side and sighed for a long time. Emperor Yuan really made a move. Although the queen forced her to agree, she played with such a move. Compared to Emperor Yuan who was familiar with the court, she and the queen were not rivals.

"Empress, after the long-term plan, it is better for Your Highness to enter the Ministry of Personnel than now being an idle person, and it is not nice to spread it." Aunt Qiong'an cheered up and said, "It's a serious job now."

"Ko Zhao'er's official position is lower than that of the second and third brothers. Also, I heard that Your Majesty has arranged an errand for the fourth brothers." The queen felt a little uneasy when she heard Emperor Yuan mention it. Even that kind of person has a errand?

Aunt Qiong'an couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, Empress, the fourth prince just entered the Imperial College. I heard that it is a book in the management academy, but it is not as good as our eldest prince."

It is said that people rely on comparison. I originally thought that my son was at the bottom, but now that I am a worse person, the Queen felt a little more comfortable. Thinking of the fourth brother's face that looked a bit similar to Xiao Lingyao, she sneered: "Forget it, let's do it first."

Qin Feng and Xiao Lingyao finally rested as they wished. When Qin Feng thought about the old man of the Chen family planning to find gold mines, he was full of thoughts at this time.

The reason why this old man was also smart is to find this trick. He knew that the Zhenbei Army must be controlled by all aspects of the imperial court, especially the military expenditure. Even if the Chen family was willing to do so, how could he get so much money to support the army?

If you can't afford it yourself, you can only rely on the court to allocate funds. If this continues, the Zhenbei Army will always be firmly held in the hands of Emperor Yuan.

However, it was not so easy to find gold mines in ancient times. Later mining industries had various prospecting instruments, and in ancient times it all depended on experience.

It is said that Feng Shui masters also play an important role in it. This area does not belong to Qin Feng’s knowledge category, so I can only read it as a story.

Seeing Qin Feng tossing and turning around, it was better to calm down when he went there. Xiao Lingyao simply turned around, put his hands in front of him, looked at him with wet eyes, and called out softly: "Son-in-law."

The voice was soft and soft. Why did it sound bad? The oil lamp was not extinguished. Seeing these wet eyes, Qin Feng's voice was a little dull: "What's wrong with Your Highness?"

"Has the prince-in-law ever let go of interest money like the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" Xiao Lingyao's voice was extremely soft and gently hit his heart.

Qin Feng was amused and crying. As expected, he showed his diligence without any reason. He was either a traitor or a thief. Is he going to borrow money?

"No." Qin Feng sighed: "In the past, it was too late to be low-key. I was already worried about running a business in private. How dare I give up interest? How dare I compare with the emperor's uncle?"

"If I borrowed silver from you, would you like to borrow it?" Xiao Lingyao bit her lip gently. She could swear to heaven and earth. She had never thought about beating him up in the past, but then she thought that it would be better to borrow and repay it.

Qin Feng's scalp tightened and pretended to be puzzled, "That's strange. Who said that he would not be short of silver next time? He also had to give those five taels of silver with me? How long has it been, why did he lack it?"

Xiao Lingyao gasped. He had a good memory and remembered what he had just said. She smiled and said, "Look at what the prince consort said now, it's not too short for now, but it's hard to say in the future, but in the future, why bother to look far and far away?"

"Let's talk until that day." Qin Feng didn't stop talking and asked, "Besides doing business with me, where can your highness get any money?"

Xiao Lingyao revealed this by himself. However, when he asked him, Xiao Lingyao sighed: "Compared with your business, I am not good enough to see anything. I dare not place it in Sui City, but it is far away in Jiangbei."
