Chapter 323 Ye Yanyi [3]
Taiwei Hong was panicked. He quickly looked up, but saw that the face of His Majesty had slightly sunk, so he hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "The loyalty of the old minister to His Majesty is understandable!"
Ye Xiange said: "Don't wait for the sun and the moon to see. You will donate thousands or tens of thousands of silver to the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War is going to cast a batch of new weapons. Now that the silver is short, your donation will definitely make Your Majesty very happy and will definitely increase our country's troops. Taiwei Hong, what do you think?"
Taiwei Hong's face was pale, and sweat had already oozed out of his forehead, "Class Ye, even if you sell me, it's not worth thousands or tens of thousands of taels of silver!"
Ye Xiange smiled and said, "But last night I was drinking in a restaurant and met Mr. Ling. I heard that your family has recently obtained a lot of money."
Taiwei Hong's face turned dark, this rebellious son!
Ye Xiange continued: "Or you are rich but you are unwilling to share your worries with Your Majesty. It's just a verbal loyalty? Your behavior is not even as good as a pariah. It's useless to trust you so much."
No one of the civil and military officials in the court dared to say anything.
Ye Xiange is really a little devil king in the world!
Every time he was in court meeting, he could not rest assured! But he dared to say anything, speak without restraint, speak cleverly, and speak with sarcasm. His Majesty has always been concerned about his identity as a prince and never cares about it.
It just made them suffer!
Last year, Ye Xiange broke the legs of a court official. When His Majesty found out, Long Yan was furious, but he had to worry about his identity as the prince of the country, and finally ordered him to return to Jiangzhou County.
As a result, just a year later, he returned to Shengjing City and immediately beat them to death.
But what's so annoying is that they can't even argue with him!
If he doesn't take out the money, he will be a hypocritical villain. How could His Majesty reuse him in the future?
At this time, Taiwei Hong hated Ye Xiange to death.
"Your Majesty, the old minister does not have that much silver at home, but the old minister is willing to invade the whole family and donate 3,000 taels of silver to the Ministry of War to cast weapons for my Dongyu Kingdom." Taiwei Hong was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
Xiao Yinglong's gloomy face finally calmed down a lot, and he smiled and said, "Taiwei Hong, you are intent."
As he said that, he said to the close historian beside him: "Isn't you going to write it down yet."
The historian said repeatedly and wrote down the silver and money donated by Taiwei Hong, 3,000 taels.
Ye Xiange raised his eyes and looked at the ministers in the court: "Master Hong has donated money for the sake of the country and the country and the safety of the people. Don't you indicate anything?"
The ministers swallowed, and then expressed their willingness to donate some silver, some donated 1,000 taels, and some donated 500 taels. All of them were counted together, and in the end they were more than 20,000 taels of silver, which made the historian very excited, and even the smile on Xiao Yinglong's face softened a little.
Mr. Qiu was still kneeling on the ground. At this time, he also raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have also donated 500 taels."
So the historian recorded it again.
Xiao Yinglong looked gentle and raised his hand, "Shilarious Minister Qiu, flat."
Mr. Qiu quickly stood up with this matter.
But he was so angry that he was as angry as Taiwei Hong. He failed to achieve his goal, but was forced to donate a lot of silver. He really lost a lot of rice.
