Chapter 653 It Doesn't Matter Whether It's Money or Not
Chapter 653 It doesn’t matter whether it’s money or not
"If Your Highness cannot remember it, then your efforts will be in vain."
He Kun's words made the three of them nod their heads.
"Sir He, the title of No. 1 has been taken away by you, Mr. He. We want to give him a good gift, but we are powerless." An official said with a grimace.
But He Kun shook his head and said: "You are wrong. If we are comparing ourselves, no matter how good you are, how can you be better than those princes and ministers? The rare treasures in their homes are all over the floor, and there is no way we can compare with them."
"But if you think about it, why does His Highness come out like this? Isn't it because he wants to see the filial piety of the people below?"
"A wealthy businessman with a huge fortune, he took out one hundred taels of silver, and an ordinary person spent all his wealth to collect ten taels of silver. Do you think which one is more important to His Highness? Do you really think that
Your Highness wants your money?"
With admiration on his face, He Kun cupped his hands in the direction of the Xi Zheng Palace and said: "Your Highness is a great talent and a great strategist, and is not comparable to ordinary people like us. What Your Highness wants to see is who in the court has filial piety towards Your Highness, and
Filial piety is something that cannot be seen or even touched, so who can know about it?"
"Normally, even if you tell the truth and make blood blisters with your words, it's just a few words."
"Now that His Highness has given you such a good opportunity, you must do your best and show your filial piety to His Highness."
"If His Highness knows that you are giving everything you have just to make His Highness smile, with such filial piety, are you afraid that His Highness will not remember you? If His Highness wants to employ people in the future, are you afraid that you will not have the chance?"
When He Kun said this with his sharp tongue, the three of them suddenly felt enlightened, like an enlightenment.
The middle-aged official among them immediately gritted his teeth and said, "I'll scrape together some more, and I can come up with something more."
"Me too."
"I still have some savings at home!"
Seeing the three people expressing their opinions one after another, He Kun said: "Well, remember, what His Highness cares about is not the money and treasures you sent. No matter how many of these things you have, can you compare with His Highness? What His Highness wants to see is you.
filial piety."
"Thank you, Master He, for your advice!"
The middle-aged official bowed deeply to the end and said gratefully: "I will never forget it. I will surely be richly rewarded in the future."
The farthest time in the world is next time, and the most elusive thing is another day. This phrase "future" is similar to the previous two words.
So He Kunquan thought it was just a fart.
But his face was filled with relief, and he shook his head and said, "No, no, no, you and I are both colleagues working under His Highness, and we should help each other."
After sending away the three people who had thanked them so much and asking them to go back to collect money, He Kun saw another group of people coming outside the East Palace before he could go back.
These people escorted the carriage, and they knew at a glance that it contained valuable gifts. He Kun immediately greeted them with a smile on his face.
"My lord, what Your Highness wants to see is our filial piety..."
...
When Li Chen learned about He Kun's shameless behavior from other people's mouths, he was dumbfounded.
But he didn't think there was anything wrong with what He Kun did.
He only cares about the results, not what means the people below use to achieve their goals.
He Kun's move obviously had excellent results.
You can tell when you look at Xu Changqing, who is complaining with a frown in front of you.
"Your Highness, He Kun is simply not a son of a man. Just because he couldn't give me any decent gifts, he left him alone. It's really snobbish!"
