Chapter 14
Xia Jing weighed the banknotes in her hand, a pile of them was so light that it weighed nothing.

This is the currency of this era?

It's just that for a country with a weak state, how long can this paper currency circulate?
Most of the transactions in the last days use crystal nuclei that are useful to everyone in the last days, and the currency before the last days is equivalent to waste paper.

And in the troubled times that followed, the imperial court could not give the people a guarantee of safety, let alone the commercial banks that issued bank notes!

Zeng Yan handed over the only stack of bank notes in his hand in pain, and the general's military orders were not accepted, but he was a general, and there was a mistress by his side, and he dared not listen to her words.

It's just that the bank note was given out, weighed in the mistress's hand, and she handed it to him again.

Zeng Yan was overjoyed, and took it with both hands. Before the smile on his face had fully unfolded, Xia Jing told him: "Housekeeper, it's not safe to hold this banknote in your hand. Send someone to exchange it for silver ingots or gold." cake, bring it to my house."

"Replace them all with silver ingots and gold cakes?" Zeng Yan was stunned.

Xia Jing looked at him indifferently, and said a word from her cherry red mouth: "Yes!"

Zeng Yan hesitated: "It's not convenient to carry all the cocoa into silver ingots or gold cakes."

Xia Jing waved her hands, and said unquestionably: "Don't worry about these things, just do what I say!"

"Yes."

Zeng Yan bowed and retreated helplessly, feeling in his heart that a woman in a deep house has no experience in walking outside to give such an order.

However, when the silver ingots were delivered, she realized the inconvenience of transporting the silver ingots, and she would understand why the world prefers to use silver bills.

Let her learn a lesson first, and when the lord arrives, it will be fine if there is a man in the family to call the shots.

With no silver in hand, I panicked.Xia Jing knew from memory that the original owner still had a lot of private money and jewelry in the palace, some of the most frequently worn jewelry were buried in the coffin, and now she has taken them into the space.

The original owner's previous four seasons clothes were burned by the mother-in-law of the palace after her death and sent to the underworld.

It's just that the original owner's remaining private treasury and private property don't know how the palace handles it?
In the evening, the silver ingots were delivered, and Xia Jing asked Hongmei to lock her into the temporary warehouse next door.

Baimei came back from the big kitchen to get dinner, and walked into the courtyard with the guards who brought the silver ingots to watch them move the boxes into the warehouse.

She entered the room, and asked while laying out the meal: "The servant just saw the guards carrying the silver into the warehouse. The weight of the box is not light. Wouldn't it be more convenient for you to carry the silver bills directly?"

Xia Jing washed her hands and sat down at the table: "If you don't change it into silver, I'm afraid that the banknotes will become a pile of waste paper, and if I use it to wipe my butt, I think the ink on it will dirty my butt."

"Princess." Baimei's face turned red, she glanced at the meals on the table, the master's appetite is so good!

Xia Jing ignored her, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

In the last days, you can eat with the smell of zombies. What is this vulgar language?
Dinner is very simple, a plate of porridge made of yellow rice, a plate of multigrain pancakes, and a plate of pickles. The richest thing is the chicken soup in the stew pot.

These few things are already considered good food in this calamity year.

Xia Jing cherishes food very much, and eats every bite seriously. The pure natural, pollution-free and pollution-free food is fragrant and authentic.

Xia Jing looked serious about eating, and Baimei felt very distressed. It seemed to her that the princess had suffered during this period.

In the past, in the palace, she was served with delicacies from mountains and seas every day, but she felt tasteless after eating them.Nowadays, in the days of fleeing, without fine clothes and fine food, one can eat simple tea and light meals with gusto, what is it if one suffers hardships?
In the dead of night, Sanjin mansion was shrouded in night, a black figure dodged from left to right, lightly dodged all the guards on patrol at night, and easily climbed out of the wall.

Standing in the dark alley with both feet on the ground, Xia Jing breathed a sigh of relief. After waking up from the coffin for so many days, she finally got used to this body.

This body has also been tempered a little by her, with thin calluses on the soles of the feet and palms, no longer worrying about bleeding blisters when walking a little, and not afraid of red and swollen palms when the reins are pulled.

As long as she deliberately exercises more in the days to come, her skills will definitely be able to return to the peak moment, and it is possible to go one step further than the peak of the last days.

After trotting to the alley, Xia Jing escaped after checking that there was no one on the street.

She had explored the way during the day, and found the governor's mansion easily at night. After confirming the location of the gate, she went around to the back, climbed into the wall and followed the architectural style of the ancients, and found the governor's study easily on the central axis.

However, to his surprise, it was already late at night, and the governor's study room was still lit.

"I just don't know if this Inspector Cen is loyal to the emperor and patriotic? Or diligent in government and loving the people?"

Of course, the guards in the study area must be tighter than other places, but it seems that Xia Jing cannot be troubled.

There were the most guards at the door of the study, Xia Jing walked around to the back of the study, and there were also two guards on duty at the rear window.

Xia Jing hid in the corner, making sure that they were within the range of her mental power attack, and used her mental power to attack the brains of the two of them, knocking them out.

Hold them up before they fall to the ground, and let their bodies sit slowly against the wall.

There was no one in the way. Xia Jing didn't pierce the paper on the window with her hand stained with saliva like she did in the TV series. She wanted to check the situation inside, so she just used her mental strength to probe.

A middle-aged man with fat hair and a beard sat on the head of the study. No need to guess, this man should be Cen Zhu, the governor of Yuzhou.

There were two thin men about his age sitting in the guest seats, one with small eyes and one with a snub nose, easy to identify.

The three big men seemed to have encountered a difficult problem, and the three of them were silently thinking about the solution.

Governor Cen didn't know that the study was being watched, and he was thinking about how to solve the current predicament.

Why is he still in the study late at night?

Isn't it fragrant to hold a beauty, warm and fragrant nephrite jade?
It was all because he had just received the news that the emperor's father would arrive in Fucheng the day after tomorrow.

"You said, it's not good for the old emperor to run to the several state capitals around Gyeonggi. Why did he insist on running to the governor? He has bad intentions and wants to put me in a dilemma!"

The small-eyed staff frowned: "When the emperor comes, it means trouble is coming. Has my lord thought of a countermeasure?"

Because Yuzhou is close to the Gyeonggi area, the imperial deterrence is the strongest, and it is also considered the safest state capital in the eyes of the world. Therefore, Yuzhou's military guards are also the weakest state capital. The entire state capital has less than [-] troops.

This force is like ants in front of Beidi's 20 troops.

In the eyes of the [-] rebels, it was as simple as strangling an ant.

The governor of Yuzhou, Cen Zhu, was gnashing his teeth in anger, "How can the governor have any countermeasures? If there is a countermeasure, I will come to you late at night?"

As he said that, he complained again: "There is also that ignorant Li Chengshang, who, relying on his status as the prince's uncle, wants to order the governor to send troops to help the old emperor. He doesn't want to think about it. Will the Yuzhou Mansion be taken advantage of by other people and take advantage of the loophole?"

The flat-nosed staff pondered for a while, and then said: "He is a marginalized uncle of the palace, my lord treats him like a clown, let him jump around, and you can choose to ignore him.

It's just that the old emperor is here, and the subordinates are afraid that he will send an adult to kill the empress. If this happens, how should we deal with it? "
