1553. Chapter 1553 Dingnan Palace 8

"Who is Su Yin? Naturally he could see this little move between the two of them. "What do you two mean? Do you still regard me as your master? Are you squinting in front of me and trying to coax me? What do you think?

Am I blind? What are your intentions?"

The two people stood up quickly and hurriedly bowed to Su Yin, "Your Majesty Mingjian, we really have other intentions, Your Majesty, please don't worry too much."

Su Yin smiled, "Okay, I won't worry about it anymore. Sit down. Come on, Liuli. That bottle is the Xiaoyao wine I brought from the southern Xinjiang province. It is the best wine in the southern border. Let's try it together.

taste."

Liuli reached out and opened the wine bottle, filling it for everyone.

"Nalan Song, I order you to start speaking first." Su Yin drank a glass of wine and seemed to be more courageous.

Nalan Song cried and said, "Sir, which part do you want me to talk about?"

Su Yin thought for a moment, "Forget it, actually everyone should be very interested in the imperial court a thousand years ago. It would be quite interesting to hear about it, right? I'll ask and you can answer, okay.

no?"

Nalan Song gritted his teeth and nodded, "My lord, may I ask, Nalan Song will tell you everything he knows."

Su Yin smiled with satisfaction, "Okay, this is what you said, so let me ask, what was your high official and military rank in Daxia?"

Nalan Song replied, "Back then, the highest military rank among my subordinates was Grand Marshal of the Army, and the official title was Deputy Privy Envoy."

"Oh." Su Yin said thoughtfully, "By the way, I have something to ask. In those days, how much were the salaries of the Generalissimo of the Army and the Deputy Privy Envoy? If you spend all your money, you can probably have some money left.

How many?"

Nalan Song thought for a while and replied, "It seems that the general of the army did not have a salary back then, and the entire Daxia Kingdom's soldiers did not have a salary."

Su Yin glared, "You're just coaxing me!"

Nalan Song swore to the sky, "Lord, how could I lie to you? What you don't know is that there were frequent wars back then, and our salary was actually the spoils of war. The Great Xia Kingdom had a national policy, and soldiers joined the army and were provided with weapons, armor, food, clothing, housing and transportation every month.

They are all burdened by the country, and if you want to make money, you must work hard to kill the enemy on the battlefield. Once you obtain the spoils, soldiers have the right to keep part of them as their own property."

Su Yin nodded, "Okay, you have passed this test. Your martial arts skills are so high. Every time you lead troops to kill a process, steal money, food, and women, your hands must be full, right... Hehe..."

Looking at the evil smile on Su Yin's face, Nalan Song felt a serious sense of guilt for some reason, "My lord, the Nalan family is considered a noble family in Daxia. Naturally, I will not casually interact with him."

Those low-level officers and soldiers went to burn, kill and loot. In fact, you strictly ordered us to only rob the army's supplies and cash them into silver coins by the state. We must not harm the property of people in other countries. So, I basically didn't do anything.

Grabbed it."

Su Yin was furious, "Then what do you usually spend? Okay, okay, I'll give you a pass. You were the deputy privy envoy in Daxia back then. This position is equivalent to an official position that is only one level lower than the prime minister today. Please tell me,

What is your salary, Mr. Deputy Privy Councilor?"

Nalan Song scratched his head and said, "I really don't remember clearly about this. Anyway, there are probably five or six hundred taels of silver coming in every year."

Su Yin was extremely disappointed, "Are you kidding? You, a dignified deputy envoy to the Privy Council, only have an annual salary of five or six hundred taels. Then I'm afraid you can't afford to support the maids and servants in your Marshal's Mansion."
