Jia Ke finally breathed a sigh of relief after finishing today's affairs.
During this period of time, Jia Ke's nerves have been very tense. Firstly, after so many years of planning, he finally took action. Secondly, Jia Ke still feels a little guilty. It is so easy for the people of the world and the royal family to accept him.
New ruler.
Now it seems that these people are still very weak. They no longer have the strongness they had when Emperor Taizu was the emperor, and they only dare to incite these students to cause trouble.
After Jia Ke came out of the military plane, he walked to the Yangxin Hall at leisure. During this period of time, Jia Ke would rest in the Yangxin Hall after handling official business. He did not return to the Duke of Yan's Mansion until he had nothing to do in the evening.
As he walked, Jia Ke asked Li Deshan next to him: "How much silver is there in the palace?"
After hearing what Jia Ke said, Li Deshan glanced at him quietly, and then said: "How much silver does the master want to have in the warehouse?"
After hearing these words, Jia Ke understood in his heart. I'm afraid there is a lot of money in the palace, otherwise Li Deshan would not dare to say such big words.
"Only 5 million yuan of silver is left in the warehouse, and the rest will be sent to the inner treasury of the Duke of Yan's mansion."
After hearing this, Li Deshan immediately smiled and said: "Don't worry, Master, I will send a car to our house tonight. But..."
Jia Ke saw that Li Deshan was hesitant, and then asked: "Nothing, there is something that can't be said."
"For my master, the main reason is that there are too many boxes and they are too heavy. I'm afraid the slaves don't have enough manpower."
Jia Ke was shocked when he heard this. No matter how hard Li Deshan could use more than 1,000 eunuchs, he actually said there were not enough people. How much money was there in the palace's inner treasury?
"How much is it?" Jia Ke now really wanted to know the figure of the money.
"Master, not counting those antique jewelry, there are more than 45 million taels of silver and 2 million taels of gold."
When Jia Ke heard this number, he became stunned. He did not expect that in just a hundred years, such a large amount of wealth would be accumulated in this palace.
Jia Ke is still a little lucky now. Fortunately, the emperor is an iron rooster and never plucks a hair.
If a person is really talented and has a great strategy, if he spreads this money all over the world, he will be able to attract a group of people to be loyal to him no matter what. Even if he has a magic weapon like the Soul-Capturing Pearl, if he wants to achieve his goal, he must
Stay with him for more than ten years.
It's good now, all this money is my own. With this money, I can control the gentry in the south or go north to attack and defend the Tatars, so I don't have to worry about anything.
Jia Ke let out a long breath, and then a smile appeared on his face involuntarily, "From now on, these farms and shops of the royal family will all be taken over by the Duke of Yan. As for the emperor, he must cultivate his moral character from now on.
As long as all the food, clothing, housing and transportation are acceptable."
When Li Deshan heard this, he immediately went on to please Jia Ke and said, "Master is still thoughtful."
Jia Ke thought for a while and then said: "In the palace, except for the Queen Mother and the Xiande Concubine, all the expenses will not be reduced, and the expenses for everyone else will be halved."
Jia Ke doesn't want to support such a large harem for the emperor now, so if he keeps the money, he might as well make something or make some armor for the border soldiers.
When Jia Ke came to the gate of the Yangxin Hall, a group of eunuchs greeted him. Now all the eunuchs in the Yangxin Hall have been replaced by Li Deshan's confidants. If they were still the original eunuchs of the Yangxin Hall, Jia Ke would not dare to use them.
them.
Jia Ke ignored them and entered the Yangxin Hall directly. Li Deshan, who was following Jia Ke, waved to these people after Jia Ke left.
After Jia Ke entered the Yangxin Hall, he sat directly on the emperor's throne. Then he picked up the excerpts that had been handed down from various places today and began to review them just like the emperor did before.
In the past, the emperor really had no right to refute these memorials, because sooner or later these were reviewed by the Military Aircraft Department.
But now Jia Ke is different from the previous emperors. If there is something that does not suit his liking, he will immediately reject it and let the Military Aircraft Department discuss the solution again.
It wasn't until noon that *** said softly from the side: "Master, it's time for lunch."
Jia Ke looked at the last few memorials left, and then said, "Just wait a little longer. I'll finish approving these copies and eat again. I'll be fine in the afternoon and can have a good rest."
After a while, Jia Ke finally finished correcting all the memorials on the table.
Jia Ke couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and stood up to move around, because his body was a little numb from sitting for a long time.
When Li Deshan saw that the whole memorial had been approved, he quickly put it on the table, and immediately the delicious food was placed on it like running water.
The first time Jia Ke had dinner in the palace, he was shocked. There were only seventy or eighty kinds of dishes on this full table. Not to mention eating, he felt full just looking at it.
But as time goes by, it becomes normal.
Jia Ke had just finished his meal and was holding a book, drinking tea and digesting food, when he saw a eunuch coming to Li Deshan and saying a few words in his ear.
Li Deshan hurriedly came to Jia Ke and said: "Master, the emperor asked the eunuch to ask when the queen will be given a make-up. If it stays like this, I'm afraid it won't be a problem."
When Jia Ke heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. He had no grievances with the Queen. Even if he finally won the throne of the Emperor, the Queen would not be much of a threat. However, the Queen had violated her several times before the Supreme Emperor's soul. If
If she doesn't give her a boost, I'm afraid the emperor won't be able to obey.
In addition, Jia Yuanchun regarded the queen as a thorn in his flesh. It seemed that he was afraid of the queen's child and would pose a threat to the child in her belly.
"Xiao Lizi, what do you think this virtuous concubine is thinking? I couldn't figure it out at the moment."
Li Deshan rolled his eyes when he heard Jia Ke ask. Now is the time to show his ability. You must know that although he has been working hard for Jia Ke before, it is during this period that he is really with Jia Ke. If not
Show off your abilities well, and you won't be replaced by some little brat in the future.
"Master, this servant is thinking about what Concubine Xiande will do next."
"Go on, I understand."
"If Concubine Xiande starts to deal with the Emperor's other heirs next, then Master, you must be careful."
Jia Ke was a little surprised when he heard this, "How did you say this?"
*** leaned closer to Jia Ke, and then said mysteriously in Jia Ke's ear: "If Concubine Xiande wants to deal with all the emperor's heirs, then it proves that Concubine Xiande has a different intention for the master.
.”
When Jia Ke heard this, you were stunned for a moment, and then a flash of lightning flashed across your heart. You immediately understood, what did Li Deshan mean?
At the same time, I also knew what Jia Yuanchun was thinking. After all, even if his brother became the emperor, it would not be as good as his own son becoming the emperor.
Since ancient times, there has been a distinction between closeness and distance. A brother born from a concubine cannot be as good as his own son.
Jia Ke was silent for a long time, and then told Li Deshan: "Send someone to replace all the maids and eunuchs of Concubine Xiande, and at the same time tell Dai Quan not to make a mistake."
After hearing this, Li Deshan immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "I will do it now. What should I do if Concubine Xiande is angry?"
"Then tell her that I asked her to do this, and it cannot be changed. If she makes trouble unreasonably again, I will imprison her in Fengzao Palace."
When Li Deshan heard that Jia Ke had made up his mind, he kowtowed to Jia Ke respectfully, then bowed his body and left the Yangxin Hall to handle this matter.
Jia Ke stood alone in the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart and began to ponder. Is power really so easy to corrupt?
He did not tell the truth to Li Deshan just now. In fact, the queen's death was planned by Jia Ke himself.
At that time, Jia Ke hinted to Dai Quan that it seemed that Dai Quan had handled the matter very well. The queen contradicted him in the Qianqing Palace. It was the time for him to establish his authority, so naturally he could not let her live.
As for the matter of Dai Quan, it happened to form a constraint between him and Li Deshan.
Jia Ke then thought about the trouble caused by the Imperial College scholars today. He did not believe that Zhang Wei, the Secretary of the Imperial College, could create such a big wave that almost all the Imperial College scholars would follow him to cause trouble.
Jia Ke felt that this matter needed to be investigated to see who was causing trouble.
After Jia Ke made up his mind, he immediately ordered the young eunuch to pass on Wei Kun.
Wei Kun had been working in the infantry commander's office. As soon as he received Jia Ke's call, he immediately came to Yangxin Hall to see Jia Ke.
Jia Ke watched Wei Kun come in, immediately stopped him from worshiping, and then called him to his side.
"Have you heard about what happened in the Imperial College today?"
"If I get back to my master, I've already received the report from the people below."
"They have been planning this for a while, but I think these few people are not enough to make such a big wave. There must be some big shot behind the scenes to steer them."
After hearing this, Wei Kun quickly said: "Master is right. I have sent people to investigate carefully. Several other officials of the Imperial College must be involved. As long as you inquire carefully, there will always be clues. Come."
Jia Ke nodded after hearing this, and then thought of Li Shouzhong. He was the sacrificial wine of the Imperial College. If he said he didn't know about this, I'm afraid no one in the world would believe it.
Li Zhishou is a relative of their Jia family, and he can be regarded as a vested interest. What role he plays in it this time needs to be carefully investigated, otherwise, if he really gets involved in his side and makes a profit, then I'm really blind.
"Li Shouzhong, the Imperial Academy wine minister, has too many doubts about this person. You should also investigate carefully to see what role he played in it."
Wei Kun was a little dazed after hearing this. He really had no doubts about you. After all, he was Li Zhi's father and a legitimate relative of the Rongguo Mansion. Anyone could oppose the Jia Mansion, but Li Shouzhong had no such motive.
But since it was the master's order, it was natural to inquire carefully.
"Don't worry, Master, we won't expose him this time."
