in the Yamen of the Ministry of Household, Zhou Changshou and Zhou Ping stood at the gate of Lu value where Xu Changqing worked. Looking at the mountain of documents and letters inside, they felt that there was really no place to step forward, so they had no choice but to decline Xu Changqing's warm invitation.

"I'm being rude, ."

Xu Changqing smiled awkwardly and spread his hand and said, "there is really no way. At present, among the six major departments of the imperial court, only the Ministry of Household is the busiest, asking for money everywhere. Every day I open my eyes with all kinds of official letters urging for silver. Even in my dream at night, I am too busy. Some of these official documents have been disposed of, and there is nothing I can do about the rest, gentlemen." Let's talk to the teahouse next door. "

seeing the tired-looking Xu Changqing struggling out of the mountain of official documents, Zhou Ping an said: "Mr. Xu, official business is naturally important, but your body is also very important. Your appearance is much worse than when I left Beijing before. After only a few months, it seems that you are two years old, so you'd better take care of yourself."

Xu Changqing said to Zhou Ping an, "Thank you for your concern, but I can't help it."

sighed, Xu Changqing said: "at present, there is only so little money in the treasury, but there are too many places to use the money. The following government offices do not know how to share the worries for me, but they have no choice but to have a little money in their hands. If the total amount is less, they will naturally be more stingy and cautious. In the past, when they were rich, they usually paid tens of thousands of taels of silver. I can make their own decisions. There is no need for me to ask myself. But now there is only a little money in the court, that is, a few thousand taels of money, and I have to discuss it with two or so attendants before it can be settled, so the efficiency naturally slows down. "

"No matter how much money is needed locally, they just send official letters to the capital, either urging or changing the budget. The efficiency here cannot be raised, and the other side is even more impatient because of slow efficiency."

while he was talking, Xu Changqing took the two men to the teahouse. After ordering someone to serve tea, Xu Changqing hurriedly asked, "how are you, your Highness"

Zhou Ping nodded and said, "your Highness, everything is all right, and the war is quite smooth. In fact, if there had not been a sudden mistake on the side of the bank, his Highness intended to come back and deal with it himself, but at present, it seems that the situation can not be delayed any longer, so let the two of us come back first."

Xu Changqing said happily, "did you two bring back the silver"

Zhou Ping took a strange look at Xu Changqing and said, "of course I brought the silver. Otherwise, would it be possible for us two brothers to beg along the street all the way" When he got to the capital, he still had about thirty or fifty taels on his body. Why did Mr. Xu ask this "

Xu Changqing was stupefied for a moment and said with a wry smile, "I was in a hurry and didn't make myself clear. Now the treasury is empty!"

"and the capital loophole that needs to be made up for at the bank is too big, if there is no silver, things will be very troublesome."

speaking of this, Xu Changqing gritted his teeth and said, "to tell you the truth, this run was started in the capital region, but in fact, the southern, southwestern, and South China provinces have already begun, but the journey is long, and there is a delay in the news to the capital. What is certain now is that there have been small-scale riots in the capital region, and the situation in those more remote and poor areas is probably even worse."Su family put on new clothes and dressed neatly at the door to greet the empress and the crown prince.Zhao Qinglan, dressed in gorgeous clothes, stepped out of the sedan chair with the help of Li Chen...
