Start by scolding the empress
Chapter 23 Chen Yizhang Imperial Capital
Chapter 23 Chen Yi Returns to the Imperial Capital
Zhang Liang was the guard guarding the gate of the imperial capital, and it happened to be his turn to be on duty that day.
Early in the morning, the sky seemed to be covered with dark clouds, as if they could land on the ground at any time, which made people feel aggrieved and bored constantly.
Zhang Liang looked at the weather, and complained to the guard Li Wen who was on duty with him: "In this weather, wind is rain, and you say that the rain will not fall, you are really anxious to death."
Li Wen nodded and said in agreement.
"Isn't it! What a crazy weather! It must have been raining for three or four days in a row. I thought it would be sunny today, but it turned out to be cloudy again. I heard that Longxi is experiencing a drought this year. You said it would have rained more if it had been given to Longxi. OK."
Zhang Liang's expression immediately changed.
"Keep your voice down, don't die, dare to talk about Longxi now."
A trace of doubt flashed across Li Wen's face: "What's going on? Aren't there people already going to provide disaster relief? The people who sent the message back said that it seems to be under control, so what are you afraid of?"
Zhang Liang immediately put his finger on his lips.
"Hush! Keep your voice down! Don't you know who went to Longxi this time? That person even scolded the Empress before leaving, so now, anyone who mentions this name must be careful about their own heads. If it gets to the Empress in the ear..."
Li Wen shuddered, and asked in surprise: "How could this be? Didn't the empress reward him? He's already like this, and he wasn't beheaded. Let's mention it so seriously?"
Zhang Liang sighed and shook his head.
"If you want to talk about who, he can be regarded as a great Confucian of the generation, but his temper is too violent. I heard the news that he scolded the empress in Longxi. The empress is very angry in the harem, so now..."
When Zhang Liang said this, he cast a look at Li Wen, and Li Wen immediately nodded clearly, suddenly realizing.
And that ended the topic.
Zhang Liang stretched his waist, saw that the dark clouds in the sky were thicker and thicker, and the surrounding area was getting more humid, Zhang Liang seemed to think of something, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile.
"Looking at the weather, it is estimated that there are not many people entering the city today, and we can just relax today."
Li Wen immediately followed suit with a smile.
At this moment, suddenly there was a rumbling sound in the sky, which came from the horizon.
Before Zhang Liang could react, he felt as if something had landed on his face. He reached out to touch it and found that it was raining.
And then, the heavy rain became more and more urgent, and in the blink of an eye, it was pouring down like a column.
Li Wen immediately took care of Zhang Liang: "Hey, come here and hide."
The two hid inside the city gate. Looking at the pouring rain in front of them, Li Wen flattered him with a smile: "Sure enough, no one really came to Jincheng on this day, unless it was a fool who took such a big risk." rain."
Just as Zhang Liang wanted to nod, a smile froze on his face.
Then he rubbed his eyes vigorously, stared blankly at the front, and said to Li Wen: "Do you think there is a carriage coming? My God, it really is, there are really fools today!"
After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he watched the carriage arrive at the city gate very quickly.
Zhang Liang and Li Wen looked at each other, and they stepped forward to stop them.
"Who is coming? Can there be..."
Before Zhang Liang finished speaking, he saw that the curtain of the carriage opened and a fish charm was handed out. Zhang Liang glanced at it subconsciously and immediately returned it.
Then immediately winked at Li Wen: "Let's go."
The groom who drove the carriage nodded, and drove the carriage into the imperial capital.
Zhang Liang kept staring at the figure of the carriage and didn't recover for a long time. Li Wen felt a little strange and stepped forward to pat him.
"Brother, what's the matter with you, why did you start to stay? Is there something wrong with the people in the carriage?"
Zhang Liang subconsciously shook his head and swallowed.
He shared his excitement with Li Wen: "Do you know who is sitting in the car?"
"Who is it? Only you have seen the fish charm. I don't know. Tell me, you are making trouble for me, and I feel itchy in my heart. Could it be that you are some big person?"
Zhang Liang nodded.
"Isn't that the big man? It's the... big man we mentioned just now!"
Li Wen opened his mouth wide in surprise, his face full of disbelief: "You mean, you mean the person in the car just now was the one who went out to help the disaster?"
After Li Wen finished speaking, he immediately frowned.
"That's not right! Shouldn't they be providing disaster relief in Longxi now? How could he come back? And it seems that His Majesty did not issue an edict. If he really comes back, this is a violation of the edict."
Zhang Liang immediately covered his mouth: "It's not something we should talk about, so let's pretend we don't know."
That's right, Chen Yi, who was officially out in the carriage, was shaken by the earthquake.
Three days ago, that night, Chen Yi reached an agreement with the bandit leader Chen Huan.
The arrangement was completed the next day, and after the relevant deployment, except for the groom who drove the carriage, he left Longxi alone without a single soldier.
It took two days, traveling day and night, and finally returned to the imperial capital this morning.
Chen Yi calculated the time. At this time, the morning morning should be almost over. Chen Yi felt that even if he rushed over, it would be too late. In addition to this period of time, he traveled day and night, and it was still raining heavily today.
Chen Yi planned to go home and settle down first, change a set of clothes, and then go to the palace to meet the empress.
At this time, above the court.
The Minister of Personnel stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty! Now that the bank has money, can the Ministry of Accounts allocate to us the money that has been accumulated before?"
As soon as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials finished speaking, the face of Minister Zhao of the Household Department who was standing aside changed.
Immediately afterwards, except for the Ministry of Household Affairs, other ministers in the imperial capital turned up the memorials that they had previously submitted because they had no money and rejected them.
Since the establishment of the imperial bank, all the ministers knew that the bank was rich, so in the past few days, everyone sent memorials and asked the empress for money.
And Hubu has been living in dire straits these two days.
The other ministers don't know, but they are in charge of money, so how could they not be clear about it.
Although it is said that at the beginning of the establishment of this empire and its installation, a large amount of winnings were recorded, but don't forget, they have a queen who spends money like water.
No matter how much money there is in the bank, it is not enough for the empress to squander.
In just a few days, except for what Chen Yi spent to buy food and grass for the earthquake, most of the remaining money was allocated to the Alchemy Pavilion by the Empress.
Zhao Shangshu from the household department kept hearing the voices of other ministers asking for money.
The sound was like a piece of stone, and Zhao Shangshu from the household department was so hard to breathe. The sweat on his forehead was as strong as the rain outside.
