Chapter 1416 The Faint Empress 39
Concubine Zhao walked away happily, but Xining put on a straight face: "Kneel down!"

The people around were so frightened that they knelt down. The chief manager looked around and found that the empress was looking at him sullenly, so he quickly knelt down with a "plop".

Xi Ning said with a cold face, "How many benefits have you received?"

"Your Majesty, how dare this old slave..." The head steward cried out, seeing the empress's appearance, it was obviously not easy to mess with, so he raised a finger resentfully, and smiled slightly awkwardly: "Yes, just Received 100 taels of silver."

"Okay!" Xining was annoyed, "I'm only worth 100 taels? What should you do!"

The head manager turned pale with fright, and immediately kowtowed: "This old slave is confused, this old slave is an asshole, this old slave..."

He raised his head, dropped the fly whisk in his hand, and slapped himself hard in the face left and right.

"That's enough!" Xining roared: "Your face is swollen, what do you think if you are seen by others, you are still my chief manager."

The chief executive kowtowed again: "Thank you for not killing me, thank you..."

"I mean I won't beat you, but I didn't say I won't kill you!" Xi Ning said darkly.

"Ah?" The chief executive raised his head, stuttered, and opened his mouth tremblingly: "Kill, kill..."

"However, if you are killed and your home is stolen, your family will be pitiful. You have served the late emperor for many years, and you grew up with me. It is a pity that you ended up like this, and I feel sorry for you." She lamented. Look, it's rare to be compassionate.

Reminding this old guy who dared to betray her, Xining lowered his head and asked softly: "Li Defu, how much do you think your life is worth?"

Raising his head, with his hands behind his back, he sighed slightly: "Now the national treasury is empty, what should I do..."

The national treasury is empty because I didn't know restraint before, but now I just don't build the Tengxiang Pavilion and clean up the river embankment without spending money. These two items save a lot of money.The treasury is still full!
It seemed that the empress was angry and wanted to punish him, not beating or scolding, but fined.

He was happy when he collected the money, but it would kill him to take it out.

The chief manager could only smile wryly: "In order to relieve His Majesty's worries, the old slave just took 1000 taels of silver..."

Xining sighed, "The treasury is empty now, what should I do..."

It can be heard that it is too little.The chief manager made a bitter face: "The old slave only received 100 taels, why did he drop 1000 taels, and he admitted that he was fined ten for one..."

I heard the empress talking to herself: "Or copy the homes of a few corrupt officials, which can not only punish corrupt officials, but also fill the national treasury, and kill multiple birds with one stone."

The chief manager immediately said: "This old slave is willing to share 5 taels for His Majesty's worries."

"5 taels..." Xining seemed to be thinking, "It doesn't seem to be enough to share my worries."

Is 5 taels not enough?In order to buy his own life, the chief manager was ruthless: "This old slave is willing to give out 10 taels to share your majesty's worries!"

"Okay, it's a deal!" Xining agreed with a smile.

Seeing the chief executive slack, like a frosted eggplant, wilting.She deliberately asked: "But these are your pension money, it seems not good to dedicate it to me, right?"

He behaves well when he gets a cheap price. Everyone says that he is cruel, greedy, and can be a good person with money.Now I find that the empress is more ruthless, more greedy, and more powerful than him. 10 taels of silver, how many years of benefits will it take to get it.

You must know that Concubine Zhao's 500 taels of silver will not be charged. Thinking of Concubine Zhao's strong background, she helped this time and got the Sacred Heart.

The big manager can only laugh along with him, the ridiculousness is uglier than the bitterness, it is undoubtedly the flesh and blood of the wrist.But he said in his mouth: "This is what this old slave is willing to do. Is there any king in the world, let alone 10 taels of silver, everything that this old slave owns belongs to His Majesty."

"Well, that's good, I will be my subordinates, and I will thank the chief manager on behalf of the people of the world. Get up!"

The three "chief executives" spoke slowly and meaningfully, which made the chief executive's heart skip a beat.

That's all, 10 taels of silver can buy a bankrupt to eliminate disasters, so there is no need to search the house.You must know that the house was ransacked, and it was more than 10 taels, and there was no chance of turning over.

The chief manager sniffed, said thank you, and stood up.Thinking of the 10 taels of silver made my heart ache.

I heard the empress sigh: "This is your pension money after all, so forget it."

The chief manager broke out in a cold sweat again: "No, no, this old slave is willing to share his worries for His Majesty. It is a blessing for this old slave, and I can't even ask for it. I beg Your Majesty to grant this old slave's loyalty, otherwise this old slave will not sleep well. If you don’t sleep, you will be too sad to eat.”

It seemed that the Empress really couldn't be fooled, she offered money for nothing and asked her to accept it.

"In order for you to sleep well and eat well, then I will accept it without any difficulty." The Empress finally agreed.

The chief manager breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately got up with a grunt: "This old slave will go back and send the silver to the treasury."

Xining smiled: "Go, go. It takes time to prepare money, so I will give you three days off."

That is to say, the money must be collected within three days, otherwise the house will be ransacked.

The chief manager was about to cry, but he still tried his best to smile, making it uncomfortable to watch: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding, and this old slave will retire for now."

"Well, let's go." Xining waited for the dejected chief executive to retreat, and then opened his mouth happily.

This guy actually sold her for money, and it would be impossible not to show some color.

These eunuchs had no children, and only money gave them a sense of security.Squeezing out such a large sum of money made them feel far more uncomfortable than a beating.

Of course, the chief executive is not a fool, if his life is gone, why do he need money.

After death, after the house is ransacked, the silver is not in the treasury.That's why I honestly took out the silver.

After a while, the deputy manager came and knelt down to pay his respects.

Holding the tea, Xi Ning looked him up and down: "You are so good-looking, how many times have I seen you?"

The deputy manager is about forty years old, fair and clean, and a little fat after middle age.It seemed that the whole person was kneaded like dough.

The smiling face is also very lucky: "Your Majesty has Mr. Li serving in front of you, and the younger ones are waiting outside. So Your Majesty is not familiar with the younger ones."

"Oh, I'm holding you down, I'm afraid you'll replace him." Xining put the tea bowl in his hand aside, and secretly glanced at him: "However, Li Defu has grown up year by year, and today I found that there are more bruises on his face. A few wrinkles. By the way, how old is he?"

The deputy manager heard the meaning, the face of the chief manager just now, like a dead mother, must have been unsacred and punished badly.

He immediately replied: "This year is sixty-two, Your Majesty."

"Oh~" Xining deliberately elongated his voice: "No wonder sometimes I doze off when I stand there. It's not as energetic as you young people."

The deputy chief was ecstatic, but the most taboo in the palace was not being able to hold his breath, or it was just the empress deliberately probing.
