Seeing the two people singing in harmony, Qian Ruoyu still looked calm.
He asked casually.
"If that's the case, then I don't care about those people, but there is still one problem. You have so many gold and silver jewelry, and you must have saved enough money for such an emergency.
, why don’t you take it out?”
As Qian Ruoyu said this, Li Zhiyi felt even more frightened!
After all, if those things were really taken out, Li Zhiyi would not have much on hand.
Qian Ruoyu asked forcefully.
"Besides, all my gold and silver jewelry have been taken away, so I don't have anything good left. The prince doesn't give me any rewards on weekdays, so I'm sitting on nothing."
"Sister, you will be completely different by then. Not only do you still have gold and silver jewelry in your hands, but you must also have some silver in your hands. In addition, the prince is usually very kind to you. This is obvious to everyone. Your silver should be
A lot, right?”
Qian Ruoyu took another step closer.
"If my guess is correct, sister, you should have more than 500 taels of silver in your hands, right?"
When she suddenly heard Qian Ruoyu say this, she was even more frightened.
"Where...where is there so much silver...I...it's pretty good if I can have more than two hundred taels of silver in my hand. How can I have five hundred taels of silver!"
But after hearing this, Qian Ruoyu smiled directly.
With just two casual sentences, he had already tested how much money Li Zhiyi had in his hands.
And these two hundred taels of silver are probably real, otherwise, Li Zhiyi would not look so excited.
"Oh, it turns out it's two hundred taels of silver. If that's the case, two hundred taels of silver is enough! Please hand over your silver. I'll tell the prince about this and let him know how loyal you are.
I am willing to help the prince pay two hundred taels of military expenses!"
But just after hearing these words, Li Zhiyi almost fainted.
After all, that was a full two hundred taels of silver. It took her a long time to have such savings.
She was naturally scared to take out all her savings for a while at once!
So when Qian Ruoyu was about to turn around, Li Zhiyi quickly caught Qian Ruoyu and said.
"Don't, don't!"
"I have other uses for the two hundred taels of silver. How could I donate it for military expenses... You... you can't be like this!"
Qian Ruoyu smiled contemptuously, and then said in an understatement.
"What's wrong? Didn't we agree to save money? And there is a war on the border. Now is the best time for you and me to save money and save money. We can lose weight and help the prince, so why not?"
"And sister, I will be generous and take out everything together. It just so happens that my scraps can be sold for some money, and I can also donate all the money with you."
Qian Ruoyu's words made Li Zhiyi's scalp numb.
If this is really the case, then Li Zhiyi is really at a complete loss.
The things in Qian Ruoyu's yard are only worth a dozen taels of silver, which is already great, but Li Zhiyi's more than 200 taels of silver, plus the gold and silver jewelry, etc., add up to almost 500 taels.
.
The comparison between a dozen taels of silver and five hundred taels of silver was like rubbing all of Li Zhiyi's money on the ground.
And precisely because of this, Li Zhiyi quickly wanted to catch Qian Ruoyu, but Qian Ruoyu had already reached the door of the yard.
At the same time, Qian Ruoyu turned around and said.
"Don't refuse when the time comes! After all, you personally proposed this matter, and I happen to agree with all your opinions. Yan'er, I'll go and sell everything we have inside right away."
Yan'er nodded quickly after hearing this.
Qian Ruoyu, on the other hand, walked forward directly.
But just when she opened the courtyard door, Qian Ruoyu bumped into someone.
Just when Qian Ruoyu raised her head, a shadow covered her, and at the same time Qian Ruoyu saw that cold face again.
Chu Mobai appeared at the door, very out of time.
If you say that, wouldn't it mean that he heard everything he just said?
While Qian Ruoyu was thinking about this matter, Li Zhiyi, who was behind Qian Ruoyu, was also scared to death.
After all, even Qian Ruoyu could guess it. After Chu Mobai heard these words, how could Li Zhiyi not guess it?
Qian Ruoyu was not afraid at this time, but directly pulled Chu Mobai and said.
"It just so happens that the prince is here anyway. Let the prince also prove it. He must have heard what we said just now. He wants to donate all our belongings together as military expenses!"
Chu Mobai looked at Qian Ruoyu and Li Zhiyi in silence at this time.
The conversation between the two of them had already been heard, and Chu Mobai could hear it clearly.
Chu Mobai just wanted to listen silently outside, but he did not expect that Qian Ruoyu would suddenly open the courtyard door, which caused the two people to collide.
Si Yin and Si Ze, who were behind Chu Mobai, had smiles on their faces at this time.
After all, they also heard that Qian Ruoyu had tricked Li Zhiyi, and Chu Mobai was still outside and could hear clearly.
There are indeed signals of a dangerous situation on the border. Although the war has not completely broken out, it is very likely that a large-scale battle will soon follow.
It was precisely because of this that when the seven hundred miles of urgent report was sent to the court, His Majesty the Emperor was extremely angry and asked the Ministry of Revenue to allocate the money immediately.
However, the Minister of Hubu tried to evade the request in every possible way. Not only could he not come up with any money, he even went so far as to ask for money from His Majesty the Emperor's internal funds again.
Not only did it anger His Majesty the Emperor, but he also angered Prince Chu Mobai, who was an official in the same dynasty.
Therefore, in a rage, Chu Mobai directly agreed to raise military funds himself.
But after Chu Mobai finished speaking, no one in the civil or military court spoke. Only two or three generals guarding the border with Chu Mobai spoke.
In the end, His Majesty the Emperor also approved Chu Mobai's preparation of silver taels on his own, and at the same time took out 20,000 taels of silver from his own funds to support Chu Mobai.
Therefore, after Chu Mobai returned to the palace, he began to think of ways to raise military expenses. Chu Mobai even thought about getting some money from Li Zhiyi. Chu Mobai was worried about this at first.
This matter has obviously settled.
Chu Mobai said to Li Zhiyi immediately.
"Are you really willing to give up your money?"
The emotions have reached this point, and Li Zhiyi has no chance to regret at this time, so she can only keep nodding.
