Night of the Divorce! A Proud Lady Was Forced to Marry the Emperor’s Uncle

  Chapter 98 Looking for Hundred Officials to Raise Funds

   "My lord, how do you deal with this matter? Otherwise, report back to the emperor. If you want to come to the emperor to understand the reason, you won't blame you, lord."

   "Do you think Father really doesn't know the connection?"

   "My lord, do you mean that the emperor did it on purpose?"

  Xiao Junhao did not speak, but silence is the default.

   Seeing the expression in his eyes, Pei Wu's eyes were full of surprise.

   "How much money is there in the Wangfu's account?"

   After a moment of silence, Xiao Junhao looked at Pei Wu and spoke. These years, the affairs of the palace were basically managed by Pei Wu. Hearing what Xiao Junhao said, he said in a low voice, "My lord, the number that can be moved in the account of the palace is at most tens of thousands of taels."

   "How come there are so few?"

  Hearing Pei Wu's words, Xiao Junhao frowned subconsciously, but as soon as the words fell, he didn't say anything more.

  Although he is a prince, his salary is not high, and he has no help from his mother's family, and no subsidy from his mother's family. In addition to the favors, in terms of money, he is indeed somewhat unable to make ends meet.

   "My lord, are you going to take out the money from our mansion?"

   "I originally thought so, but now it seems that these tens of thousands of taels are of no use."

   "My lord, I do have an idea, but once this method is implemented, you may offend many courtiers, my lord."

"you say."

  Hearing Xiao Junhao's words, Pei Wu stepped forward and said in a low voice, "The renovation of the palace is a big deal. Your lord, you can ask all the officials to raise funds. If the emperor knows about it, he won't say anything."

   "It's an offending thing to find hundreds of officials to raise funds."

  Xiao Junhao's eyes flickered when he heard this, but he objected without the first reaction.

  Looking at the look in Xiao Junhao's eyes, Pei Wu continued, "My lord, the most urgent thing is to deepen the relationship between you and the emperor. As for the civil and military officials, they are nothing but courtiers. Even if they are offended, it is nothing."

   "If one day you can be in charge, what are these?"

  Pei Wu's voice was very low, but it clearly fell into Xiao Junhao's ears.

  Hearing his words, Xiao Junhao fell into thinking.

   After an unknown amount of time, he looked at Pei Wu and said, "Accompany me to the Lin family."

"yes."

Lin.

  Lin Ruhai's study room.

   "My lord, congratulations. The emperor is willing to entrust you with the repair of the palace, which is enough to show his trust in you."

   As soon as Xiao Junhao entered the study, Lin Ruhai smiled and said congratulations.

  But Lin Mengyao saw the boredom in Xiao Junhao's eyes at a glance. Seeing this, she said softly, "My lord, what trouble are you in?"

  Xiao Junhao gave Lin Mengyao a tender look, then turned to Lin Ruhai and said, "Master Lin, I came here today to ask for your help."

   "My lord, do you have any orders, but it doesn't matter."

  Simplely repeated Master Du's words, Xiao Junhao continued, "Renovating the palace is my father's wish, and this king must help my father fulfill this wish. But I don't have any money in my hands."

   "So, this king hopes that Mr. Lin can discuss with the ministers whether they can help this king."

   "Your Majesty, do you mean that you want civil and military officials to raise funds?"

  Hearing Xiao Junhao's words, Lin Ruhai spoke directly, with a somewhat ugly look in his eyes.

  Xiao Junhao nodded, seeing Lin Ruhai's eyes were very ugly, he said in a low voice, "Master Lin, if this can be done, this king will never forget your contribution."

  Although Xiao Junhao promised, Lin Ruhai's face still didn't look good.

  He has been in the court for many years, so he naturally knows how difficult it is.

  At this time, Lin Mengyao suddenly looked at her father and said, "Father, please help the prince."

  Hearing what his daughter said, Lin Ruhai looked at Xiao Junhao and said, "My lord, I will do my best in this matter."

   "Then thank you, Lord Lin, I will wait for your news."

  After saying this, Xiao Junhao got up from the chair directly, seeing this, Lin Mengyao hurriedly followed.

   When she walked outside the courtyard, Lin Mengyao said softly, "Forgive me, my father?"

   "It's okay, I know Lord Lin also has his own considerations, Yaoer, this king won't take it to heart."

   "That's good, don't worry, my lord, I will definitely convince my father as soon as possible."

   "Also, these princes have it."

   While talking, Lin Mengyao handed Xiao Junhao a wooden box, looking at the cooperation in her hands, Xiao Junhao had some doubts in his eyes, "This is it?"

   "During the few years when I studied medicine at my grandfather's house, I also opened a few medical clinics. The income is not much, but I have accumulated some over the years."

   "Now, I will give these to the prince."

  Hearing what Lin Mengyao said, Xiao Junhao opened the wooden box in his hand, which contained a stack of bank notes.

Looking at these bank notes, Xiao Junhao's eyes were a bit complicated, but when he looked up at Lin Mengyao, a gentle smile appeared in his eyes, "Yao'er, in this world, you are the only one who is sincere to me. Will bear you."

   "Yaoer believes in the prince."

  When Xiao Junhao got this job, Jiang Peihuan kept paying attention to the news around him, but he didn't expect him to move so fast.

  General's Mansion.

   "Father, did something happen in the court? Why do you have a bad face?"

  Jiang Hong's vacation is over, and he has resumed court every day.

  After Jiang Hong and his wife came back, Jiang Peihuan would go to Yanlin for dinner every night.

  Just sitting down today, I saw Jiang Hong frowning.

Hearing Jiang Peihuan's voice, Jiang Hong didn't speak, Xue Yan spoke first, "It's not a matter of repairing the palace, and I don't know what kind of ecstasy drug King Qing gave to the courtiers, and it actually encouraged many courtiers to take out it spontaneously." silver."

   "Among them, led by Lin Ruhai, he almost persuaded all the generals. No, Lin Ruhai found your father after going to court today."

  Thinking of Lin Mengyao, Jiang Peihuan was not surprised that Lin Ruhai ran for Xiao Junhao. But when Lin Ruhai found his father, Jiang Peihuan was somewhat surprised.

   After all, everyone knows that the Lin family and their Jiang family are not getting along.

   After thinking for a while, Jiang Peihuan looked at Jiang Hong and said, "Father, has the emperor done anything about this?"

   "The emperor must know about it, otherwise King Qing wouldn't dare to be so blatant. Regarding the matter of the courtiers paying the money, the emperor didn't say anything."

   "Since that's the case, let's pretend that father doesn't know."

   "Huaner, you mean that the money will not be paid."

"good."

  Meeting Jiang Hong's eyes, Jiang Peihuan said softly, "If the emperor speaks in person, father will have to come up with some silver no matter what."

   "But now the emperor has not said anything, so father, you just don't know. If Mr. Lin asks you again, you say that you have no money, or ask him to borrow some."
