Chapter 49 Fundraising

Emperor Qian wanted to sacrifice some color and let Lin Yiqiu solve the problem at hand, but he didn't expect that Lin Yiqiu would go even further and want benefits!

That meaning is self-evident.

This guy wants to ride on her and do whatever he wants.

She paused and said in a cold tone: "Lin Yiqiu! Don't forget, I am the emperor of Daqian and your master! Whatever I ask you to do, you must do it!"

Lin Yiqiu raised his eyebrows, furious.

He didn't belong here in the first place, he was an arrogant person at heart, and he had no interest in emperors and nobles at all.

Mom sells batches!

If I didn't know that I couldn't beat you, just based on what you say now, I would have to pin you down and teach you a lesson!

Suddenly, he noticed that Qiandi's delicate body was trembling a little and his eyes were slightly red.

Lin Yiqiu's heart suddenly softened.

Emperor Qian is aloof, even if she is pretending to be Emperor Qian, she has never been like this.

She didn't know that Lin Yiqiu was a fake eunuch before, so she saw him for a long time.

Now that you know it, why would you sacrifice yourself by appearing in front of him in women's clothing?

They are the people of Daqian, hundreds of thousands of soldiers who fought bloody battles on the border.

A woman disguised herself as Emperor Qian and worked hard to govern. Despite the disasters in various parts of the country, the invasion of the enemy from the north, and the marriage of Wu, it was really not easy.

"I'm sorry, even if I want to get you, I won't take advantage of you at this time."

Lin Yiqiu accidentally said what was on his mind.

Emperor Qian's expression changed and he did not continue discussing the previous topic.

"Do you really have a way?"

Speaking of business, Lin Yiqiu gathered his thoughts and asked without answering: "In the Daqian Dynasty, who was richer than the common people?"

Emperor Qian thought for a moment and said, "Merchant?"

Emperor Qian thought he was a smart man, but he was always confused about Lin Yiqiu's Ma Xingkong thoughts and didn't understand why he asked.

"Well, merchants are just one of them. Not to mention the distant ones, there are hundreds of officials from the imperial court nearby, all of whom are not wealthy. There are also the princesses, concubines, nobles, Zhaoyi, etc. in the palace, none of whom are better than the common people. I have a lot of money in my hands!"

Emperor Qian opened her mouth slightly in surprise and was speechless for a while. She understood what Lin Yiqiu meant, but she didn't think it was feasible.

"You want me to steal money from these people, how could they be willing?"

Lin Yiqiu smiled calmly and said: "Of course they won't, but it depends on who opens the mouth. You are the emperor of Daqian, the most powerful person. The whole country is not the king's land, and the whole country is the king's ministers. No matter what The same applies to merchants who do business, to court officials regardless of their rank, and to the three thousand concubines in the harem."

"Of course, someone needs to set an example for this kind of thing. You don't need to come forward for this kind of thing. I will find a businessman to come to the court to donate..."

Emperor Qian's eyes became brighter and brighter as he looked at the young man chatting in front of him, his mind gradually drifting away.

"Lin Yiqiu, do you want to become an official in the court?"

Lin Yiqiu was stunned for a moment, seeing that Emperor Qian's expression didn't seem to be joking.

"Your Majesty, I don't want to die yet."

Now that we know that he is a fake eunuch, there are His Majesty, Xiao Meiniang, and several people Xiao Meiniang has friends with.

But if the officials knew that he was a fake eunuch, they would first punish him for deceiving the emperor.

He had stayed in the palace again, and there were no shortage of gossip.

Even if Emperor Qian gave him an official position despite the heavy pressure, it would be difficult for him to be as comfortable as he is now.

What can kill is not necessarily a sword.

Emperor Qian quickly figured this out. She wanted to reuse Lin Yiqiu, a courageous and resourceful young man, but unfortunately he was a eunuch.

Emperor Qian didn't hear Lin Yiqiu's words for a long time. When he looked up, he saw that this guy was peeking at her condescendingly again.

Lin Yiqiu peeked at the natural ravine, smelled the familiar perfume, and his mind was wandering.

Emperor Qian's face turned red again, maybe this is good.

The door opened silently.

Lin Yi

Qiu was sent away by a palm wind.

"Your Majesty, sleep in peace!"

Lin Yiqiu wiped his nose and muttered, "I've been a little angry lately!"

Xuanwumen.

All the officials who had gone to the morning court were waiting outside early.

"There is no clue about the robbery of military pay. Today, Your Majesty will not give us a good look."

"Nowadays, the people in the city are spreading rumors that taxes will be increased to supplement military pay, and people are panicking."

"What should we do? Master Shangshu, have you come up with a countermeasure?"

"Old man...incompetent..."

In the morning, no one from the civil and military circles came forward to speak, and no one reported anything.

Everyone knows that His Majesty is worried about the issue of military pay, and they can't find a way to solve it. At this time, no one wants to feel unhappy.

"Why, everyone is mute?"

Emperor Qian looked at the strange atmosphere in the court and asked in a bad tone.

At this time, a guard came forward to report.

"Your Majesty, a man from Fuyuan Yaxing came outside the palace with a hundred thousand taels of silver, which he said he wanted to donate to the court for military pay. The man also brought a letter, saying that he would give it to your Majesty."

Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials in the court suddenly started whispering.

One hundred thousand taels of silver is not a small amount of money.

Who is Fuyuan Yaxing to be so generous?

Although one hundred thousand taels is a lot, it is only one-tenth of the lost military pay, and the hole is still huge.

"Little plum, hand over the letter."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

All the civil and military officials in the palace secretly observed Emperor Qian's expression.

Emperor Qian opened the letter, first looking puzzled, and then smiling.

The letter was written by Lin Yiqiu and contained only a few words.

"Don't tell secret words, I like you."

Lin Yiqiu is probably the first person in history to tease the leader of a country through official business.

Emperor Qian put down the letter and said to his subordinates: "You guys have seen it. I am a businessman from Daqian who cares about the country and the people and donates generously. He understands the righteousness of this move. Come here, please give him a plaque for his shop and put it up throughout the city. Notice to show your reward. I hope businessmen all over the world will take this as an example and be loyal and filial to the country!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The ministers below looked at each other in confusion. What does Your Majesty mean by letting everyone see?

Emperor Qian squinted his eyes and looked around, and said in a deep voice: "My dear friends, a businessman has such integrity and a deep understanding of justice. If you lend a helping hand when the country is in trouble, you are all the pillars of my country and important ministers of the court. It shouldn’t be any worse than this person’s consciousness, right?”

Emperor Qian's words all mentioned this, and the meaning was too obvious.

The officials below are naturally not stupid. This is to ask them to donate money.

Although my heart ached a little, Li Yan, as the Prime Minister, was the first to stand up.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to donate five thousand taels of silver as military pay!"
