Kong Xi looked him up and down, and then his enthusiasm turned into suspicion. Finally, he said in a dull tone: "I know the emperor doesn't really pity me. My salary has been fined until next year!"
Although Eunuch Liu has two young eunuchs behind him, how can he hide dozens of taels of silver in his body?
Eunuch Liu, dumbfounded, took out the banknote that the emperor asked him to hand over from his arms!
Kong Xi was startled. The emperor rewarded the flowers with silver. Isn’t it cash? Is it a banknote?
I took it and looked at it. One thousand taels, ten in total?
Kong Xi's eyes lit up again, and he grinned, almost reaching behind his ears.
Eunuch Liu couldn't bear to see him. A great general only had ten thousand taels of silver. Look how happy he was.
He had to remind: "General, you haven't thanked me yet!"
"Oh, yes, yes, thank you!" Kong Xi said: "Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"
A sincere voice and a grateful tone!
Eunuch Liu: "..."
It’s the money you’re thanking, not the emperor, right?
Liu Gonggong said: "General, our holy edict has been delivered, so I'm leaving now!"
Kong Xi's eyes finally moved back from the 10,000 taels of silver notes. He remembered that the envoy from the palace wanted to give him some meaning in private.
Of course he was reluctant to part with this one thousand tael piece. He reached into his arms and touched three pennies.
He immediately put the three coins into Eunuch Liu's hand and said with a hearty smile: "Eunuch, have a cup of tea. This general knows all the rules!"
Eunuch Liu looked at the three cents in his hand, feeling a little dazed.
What a special, unique and unique reward!
He didn't even know whether to put it away or not.
He is a dignified eunuch, and whenever he comes out to convey orders, he is rewarded with either silver or banknotes. This is the first time that he has been rewarded with square hole coins!
Just as he was dazed, a big hand reached out and picked one out of the three. Kong Xi chuckled: "I almost forgot, I haven't had breakfast yet, and I have to go out and buy a bun to eat later.
Anyway, it’s just a meaning, three or two are the same, understand the spirit, understand the spirit!”
Eunuch Liu: "..."
He no longer knew how to describe his mood at this time.
At this time, Kong Xi was holding 10,000 taels of silver and grinning from ear to ear. It was not that he was too low-level. He had hundreds of thousands of taels and even millions of taels in his hands. However, those were military expenses.
The capital belongs to the court and the brothers, and he has never spent a penny.
When a man arrived in the capital, he was so poor that he almost drank the northwest wind. Of course he was happy that the silver rewarded by the emperor could solve his urgent need.
Eunuch Liu was sent out by the butler. Looking at the common clothes on the butler's body and the quietness of the road, not even a single servant was seen. Eunuch Liu sighed. The General's Mansion is the poorest home of a capital official he has ever seen.
There is no one!
Returning to the palace, Eunuch Liu returned to the emperor.
The emperor recovered from the pile of memorials and raised his eyes to look at him: "Sent it? How about the General's Mansion?"
Eunuch Liu thought for a moment and realized it was really not that bad.
He said: "The General's Mansion is very special!"
"Oh, what's a special method?" The emperor became interested.
Liu Dazhu has been with the emperor for more than 20 years, and sometimes he can be regarded as a good talker. With his heart for small talk, Liu Dazhu knew that the emperor was interested, so he smiled and said: "It's so special that he can only drink plain water, and there is no stool to sit on!"
Emperor: "..."
He looked weird and said: "No wonder I deducted his salary, he is like a deceased heir!"
Eunuch Liu shook his head and said with a smile: "When he received the silver note given by the emperor, he laughed so hard that he gave me goose bumps all over his body."
The emperor laughed and scolded: "This old thing!"
Eunuch Liu stretched out his hand again and said: "This is a reward from the general for my slave's trip!"
When the emperor saw the two cents, his lips twitched.
Eunuch Liu sighed: "The general touched his body for a long time and found out three coins. He was originally going to give them to the slaves, but he said that he hadn't eaten breakfast yet and wanted to save one to buy a bun to eat!"
The emperor didn't even know what to say. This Kong Xi was really a genius.
If he didn't know that he was really poor and didn't give him ten thousand taels, the emperor would be suspicious, and soon he would even sell the general's mansion.
Seeing the aggrieved look on Eunuch Liu's face, the emperor burst into laughter. This Kong Xi is really a weirdo!
He said: "Since it was Kong Xi who rewarded you with one penny, I promise you to exchange it for one hundred taels!"
Eunuch Liu was surprised and happy, and refused: "All slaves work for the emperor. The emperor rewards slaves enough on weekdays!"
The emperor laughed and scolded: "Don't act clever in front of me, you will never change your love!"
Eunuch Liu quickly smiled and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" He could tell. The Emperor said he was not very happy with Kong Xi, but in fact he was quite protective of him!
If the emperor knew what he was thinking, he would probably laugh.
Kong Xi was in the middle of the court, and he was really disgusted by dogs.
Apart from him, the main reason is that he always speaks directly and scolds anyone who doesn't like hearing what he says.
He doesn’t understand what euphemism is.
But he has real military merits. Many people don't understand how such an honest guy can become a general. However, some people are not good at being in the officialdom. If they fight with divine help, they will not accept it.
And he is loyal. He will not sell his face to anyone except the emperor. In front of all the ministers in the court, he dares to scold the Prime Minister Ming as an old fox and beat anyone he dares to catch.
The emperor laughed and scolded: "That fool, he is so poor that he is going to eat dirt, but he still doesn't have a long memory. He dares to beat someone in the palace, he deserves it!"
Eunuch Liu joked: "The emperor is wise and loves him. He knows that he is just a fool, but his loyalty is commendable. Otherwise, which minister would dare to be so unruly!"
The emperor said: "Yes, what kind of bad intentions can a fool have?"
Liu Gonggong said: "If the emperor hadn't sympathized with him and subsidized him, he and his children would have been so poor that they wouldn't even be able to wear trousers!"
The emperor smiled, his words were quite useful.
Why was Kong Xi so presumptuous in the court, and why did the emperor still rely on him and dote on him so much?
Eunuch Liu doesn’t understand, but the emperor himself understands.
Kong Xi was hated by people, and without friends, it would be impossible to form cliques for personal gain.
The son of the Kong family can even steal the things in the house to exchange money for gambling. He is a playboy by nature and has no ambition.
The daughter of the Kong family is a little witch, and she doesn't behave like a lady at all. She fights and gets into trouble and is not inferior to her brother. Such a woman will not be able to marry into the royal family, or even a more respectable young man from the civil servant family. She will probably marry in the future.
It's to marry a military commander.
It is impossible for such a family to be in serious trouble.
This is also the reason why Kong Xi was originally a third-rank general Xuanwei, but he was promoted to a first-rank general year by year, and is still sitting firmly in this position.
After receiving the reward, Kong Xi smiled so hard that he never closed his mouth.
Sure enough, he went out and bought a big meat bun with a penny and sacrificed it to his five internal organs temple.
Then, he started counting the banknotes in his room!
