Chapter 243 Take people to pay off debts

"Good! So, what can you do to punish those scoundrel ministers who refuse to pay back the money?

Yunshang smiled gently, shrugged her shoulders, and looked at the old man sadly. The old man was really pitiful. After being a loyal minister for his life, he ended up being disliked by the emperor's master. The trace of disgust and disgust that flashed in Feng Zi's eyes just now was too obvious.

Yunshang smiled, smiling lightly, like a ball of cotton wool.

"I have an idea. Don't move the knife and don't see blood. Of course, these people don't have to pay back the money." Yunshang smiled at the corners of his mouth, and a shallow pear vortex appeared on his cheeks.

Feng Ziqi looked at her, frowning, but looked at her with silent trust. Obviously, she was waiting for Yunshang to continue talking.

Yunshang naturally understood the meaning of his eyes and nodded to him, signaling him to be calm. Feng Ziqi looked at her and suddenly smiled. It was just a fast moment, and when the ministers couldn't take their eyes off Yunshang and waited for her to make a high opinion, the speed was like a smile that shocked the lake, and was naturally neglected.

"I mean, this is not difficult to do. Since these officials can't pay back the money in such a state of national emergency, I'm afraid they are really exhausted. They are all colleagues. I'm afraid it's not good to force others to pay back the money. In fact, these people don't have to pay back, right? What do you think? Lord Ma?" Yunshang has taken over the list handed over by Tingnu. This is the name of the official who refused to pay back the money sorted out by Dali Temple Cheng. Yunshang looked at it roughly and didn't know it.

The only one I have heard of is Lord Mayong, who is the leader.

Naturally, she focused on him.

Ma Yong looked like a sharp-mouthed monkey's cheek, but his eyes were bright. At first glance, he was not a person who was easy to provoke. Hearing Yunshang say this, he immediately came out and echoed, "Naturally, what Her Royal Highness said is extremely true. I am really powerless. Otherwise, you won't be able to return the money to the treasury at this critical juncture. It's really shame, shame."

Yunshang looked at him with satisfaction and said to Feng Ziyu with pity, "I heard that the most rare thing for a minister is a bold loyalty. Although Lord Ma's financial resources are not as good as to save the country, he is indeed a loyal heart to protect the country. Such a loyal minister can't be because of a little money. Cut off the head."

Ma Yong immediately felt grateful and knelt up and bowed, "What Her Royal Highness said is very true. I am ashamed, ashamed."

Yunshang smiled and walked to him and said, "Lord Ma, you don't have to be so ashamed. I have thought of a proper way to help you protect the country as a family, but also don't let you spend a big son. What do you think?"

"What's the way?" Not to mention Lord Ma, other officials are also looking forward to it. I want to see what kind of idea it is.

Yun Shang smiled faintly, "I heard that Lord Ma's family has two sons. One son has a disease and is unmarried so far, while the second son is very excellent and has been married, and has a granddaughter, isn't it?"

The look on Ma Yong's face changed, and he was very surprised.

"I think the matter of being loyal to the country does not lie in having more money and less money, but in being sincere. Since there is no money to repay the national debt, it is better to ask your son to go to the camp as a soldier and serve the country!" What she said was light and light, almost without any feelings, but it was a pity that Lord Ma's thin face was scared to death.

"How...how can this work?"

"Huh? Why can't this work?" Yunshang looked at him curiously, "My Lou family has never borrowed a penny from the court, but my sister still went to the front line from the army. Besides, Lu Can, the Northern Marquis. Aren't his two sons also staying in the court, and one went to the front line to fight with people?"

After a few words, what Ma Yong said fell into silence.

Because what Lou Yunshang said is indeed true.

Gu Wenlun was also stunned. After thinking about it, he laughed twice. Yun Shang almost thought that the old man was mad by himself. I was so angry just now, and now I laugh like this. It's really unreasonable.

Gu Wenlun laughed so much that he burst into tears. He rubbed his hands, lit Lou Yunshang, and said to Feng Ziqi, "This kind of absurd theory can also be elegant?"

"Although it is ridiculous, it is almost humane." Yun Shang said in a quiet voice, "Although this method is not the best, it is also a two-way. There is a male official in the family who can let his son go on an expedition to offset the arrears. If there is no children in the family, you should ask your majesty to punish these people according to their salaries until they pay off the national debts with their salaries. Take Lord Ma as an example. He has two sons in his family. He only needs one person to go to the battlefield. Even if there is a short mistake of Ma's high stool, his Ma family will not be broken.

She turned around and looked at Ma Yong, "Lord Ma, do you think it's better to take care of the university scholar or the official's method?"

Ma Yong's face turned into a ball of bitter gourd. After swallowing the bitter water for a long time, he felt that he had not swallowed it. In front of the literary and martial arts of the whole dynasty, he still bowed his head in front of his own life and whispered to Feng Zifeng, "I... I'm willing to smash the pot and sell iron to collect the national debt."

"There is also a deadline for smashing the pot and selling iron, which is limited to three days for you to return the delinquent national debts. Lord Ma, do you think this is okay?" This woman is indeed vicious. She asked with a smile, but it was such a question that he couldn't answer at all. At this point, can he say no?

I had to nod my head and said gratefully, "Ma Yong, thank you very much for the princess's life."

This is also reasonable.

Yunshang looked at him, and his eyes smiled into a crack.

Gu University Scholars had nothing to say. He rolled his sleeves and wanted to leave. Yunshang thought that he would never stop. Anyway, they really tore their faces today, and it's okay to say a few more words.

He said loudly, "Master Gu, your majesty has not yet announced his retreat from the court. You can't go down to the court before the lord of the country. This is the common sense of an official.

Gu Wenlun's old face turned red and stiff in place. He could neither enter nor retreat.

Feng Zizhen thought that this old man was tossed around today, so he said kindly, "Gu University Scholar is old. If you are not feeling well, you can retire first."

The old man of Gu Daxue blushed and left in a hurry.

Yunshang hooked the corners of his lips obliquely, looked at Gu Dashi's back and smiled. He also felt that it was really absurd just now. According to reason, her younger generation must not treat the old man like this. Unfortunately, the old man is really an old bastard.

To deal with bastards, you have to be more asshole than him. This is the way to win.

Feng Ziqi announced on the spot that according to what Yun Shang said, she asked those officials who refused to repay the money to donate the male men in the family and prepare to go to the battlefield to serve the country.

And this job fell on Ma Yong's head.

Yunshang felt that Ma Yong must feel that he was a bad person and must hate himself very much, so after the smart Yunshang retreated from the court, as soon as she returned to the small building of Lianxin, she let Minyan take a few words to Ma Yong's house.

Sure enough, as soon as Min Yan entered, he saw that there were already people looking up to the horse in the house, and it was really people looking up to the horse.

The housekeeper recognized Min Yan and immediately took him into Ma Yong's living room. Ma Yong was having a deep headache about this matter. Min Yan said with a smile, "Lord Ma, Your Highness thinks you may be a little tricky in this matter, so she specially sent me to bring you something."

Ma Yong was angry and didn't dare to say it clearly. He took over the things in Minyan's hand and suddenly froze.

This is a thick pile of silver tickets and a piece of paper.

"Her Royal Highness specially told that Lord Ma is very honest and honest. Naturally, there is no extra silver to be returned to the treasury, so he took out some of his own money."

"No, I can't ask for the princess's money..."

Min Yan expected that he had said this and smiled, "Your excellency is at ease. The princess did not give you the money, but lent it to you. Look, isn't this an IOU?" He unfolded the paper written in black and white, and lent Ma Yong three thousand taels of silver.

Ma Yong suddenly realized that she had done such a game and only waited for herself to jump down.

He didn't have the money to pay off the debt. Naturally, 3,000 taels of silver naturally didn't want to send her an extra big son. As a result, she fell into a passive situation. She kindly lent money to herself, which was clearly telling him with practical actions that his little trick was not enough for her to think about it in the blink of an eye.

He had no choice but to sign the IOU. Ma Yong looked like dirt, because there was no clear indication on this IOU when he was asked to pay the debt. If he didn't pay the debt, it means that... He could only pay it with this life in his life. This loan is the best shackles. He can't raise his head in front of her for a day in his life.

Min Yan looked at the words and smiled faintly, "Adults have a good rest, and I will leave."

It's just that before Minyan got home, there was already a person who was one step ahead of him and arrived at Lianxin Xiaozhu.

***

The early morning sun shines on the ground a little warm. In the Shuixuan, there is ice everywhere. The pavilion in the Shuixuan has really become a pavilion at this moment, which is really cool. However, there was a man sitting in the middle wrapped in a white cloak. A pot of hot tea turned around in his hand. When he drank the second cup, there was finally one more person in front of him.

If it is late at night, others will naturally be scared to death, because this person is not described like an ordinary person, but has three heads. The words are arranged on your neck and shoulders, which makes people look terrible.

But the man in a white cloak was not afraid at all, and there was a feeling of reunion with old friends. He smiled at him kindly, "I have good tea. Would you like to drink some together?"

"I never only drink, not tea." Although the man said this, he also sat very happily beside the man in the white cloak. He looked at the man carefully and laughed loudly, "Son, they all said that you were fascinated by a woman here. I didn't believe it at first, but when I saw him today, I also believed it."

This man in the white cloak is the prince Lian Zhun who disappeared in the lotus heart building early in the morning.
