Chapter 193, everything looks like silver

Nara snorted lightly, smiling and narrowing her eyes.

The old lady of the Empress Dowager has also made her feel quite dissatisfied recently. This year, she is obviously the old lady’s 600,000th birthday, and she is also on a southern tour, and the officials and merchants in the south of the Yangtze River have all tried their best to respect the old lady.

As long as the old lady is willing to nod, the gold and silver will have to be delivered in.

But the old lady was so good that she issued an imperial edict through the emperor that she would not accept any congratulations, but only prepared scriptures, stages, etc. along the way, and invited monks to preach scriptures, set up stages to sing operas, and shared them with the people all the way. As for the rest of the antiques, satin, etc., there was no need to contribute.

This Jiangnan was originally a rich place in the world, but because of the old lady's attitude, she asked her to lose a lot of money!

She also understood that since the emperor ascended the throne, the old lady had been used to being a wealthy empress dowager. The emperor, the filial son, made contributions to the emperor, were made contributions during the year; even the princes, princes, and royal families also made contributions on time... let alone the longevity of the year. Although Jiangnan is rich in the world, the old lady has never seen anything and has never been able to gain anything. Therefore, the old lady really doesn't take Jiangnan's contributions seriously.

But, she cares!

It is true that she is the queen of the main palace, but everything she has given is given by the emperor. Her own annual statute is only 1,000 taels, and her family has helped her to make up for it. But in a year, every one of the concubines in the palace celebrated their birthdays, she will be rewarded; how many concubines and mothers are there in the Cining Palace! Just one birthday per person a year, she will not be enough for her to use for a thousand years in a year.

What's more, there are those princes and princesses!

Fortunately, only one eldest prince has a grandson at this time, and the eldest prince herself is still dead. After a few years, these princes will grow up and get married and have children... As her legitimate mother, she will have to reward her, so where can she find so much money?

For more than a year, she has spent almost 20 years of savings in the palace. She can maintain this year, thanks to the rewards from the empress dowager and the emperor during the canonization ceremony, as well as contributions from the royal family ministers and internal and external women... She settled the expenses for this year before going out in the first month, and could not afford them without 30,000 or 50,000 yuan.

Thirty or fifty thousand silver is compared with her annual price of one thousand taels, haha, what is a drop in the bucket?

It was fine in previous years, but this year the Empress Dowager's 600,000th birthday. The emperor wants Daqing, how could she be so shabby?

But the Empress Dowager gave up the ministers to offer. Why couldn't the old lady avoid her as her daughter-in-law's offer? She was so stretched and looked like a silver tik!

This time in Hangzhou, it was finally easy for Hangzhou Weaving to make a contribution, so she privately found the inner steward beside her, and then passed it to her through the eunuch, Tana. She was so happy that she thought she was the queen, and that Hanzhou would not be able to make a fortune for only 20,000 yuan.

If the Empress Dowager had this twenty thousand silver, she would have been able to cope with her longevity; even if she returned to Beijing and had Shu Fei for the next child, and the child would be able to support her.

But I didn’t think that the day when Hangzhou weaving money came to buy silver was the day when the emperor ordered the sticky rod to worship Tang A and rectify the Dharma on the spot!

A noble son, the guard beside the emperor, said he had chopped his head and chopped it up. Hangzhou Weaving Craftsman, regardless of the fact that he was a cloak of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, did not dare to do so. He was just trying to give such five hundred taels. This time he was not enough to deal with Shu Fei!
