Prosperous advisors

Chapter 741: Unrepentant (2)
All of them went to the innermost place, and finally saw Huahuang sitting on a pile of damp straw.He was still wearing the complicated and gorgeous court clothes from yesterday, but the original bright yellow dragon robe was now covered with filth and blood stains, which made people frown secretly.

Overnight, Hua Huang looked even older.The originally gray beard and hair seemed to be completely white, and the wrinkles on the face became more numerous, and a pair of cloudy old eyes were silent.Even the originally tall and straight figure seemed to bend down.If it weren't for the dragon pattern embroidered on the clothes, the Huahuang at this moment would look like any homeless old man in his seventies.

Hearing the sound, Emperor Hua immediately raised his head, rushed to the edge of the prison door with a swiftness beyond his age, and shouted loudly: "Let me out! Let me out!"

Rong Jin frowned slightly, pulled Mu Qingyi to the chair that had been placed not far away and sat down, looked at Hua Huang with raised eyebrows and said, "I heard that you want to see me? Do you have anything to say? "

"Let me out! Rong Jin! Mu Qingyi... You traitor, let me out..." Hua Huang roared angrily, as if nothing else was important to him except getting out.

Mu Qingyi looked at Rong Jin in confusion, Rong Jin pouted, how did he know what Wei Wuji had done to this old man?
In fact, Mr. Wei really didn't do anything to Emperor Hua.With Wei Wuji's pride, he didn't bother to do anything to a poor and sad dying old man whose country was ruined and his family was ruined.It's just that Huahuang has been an emperor for decades and is used to being aloof. Even before he became an emperor, he was still a dignified prince.He is used to taking the wealth, fame and life of his subjects.Knock them down from a high place to the dust, but he himself has never seen what the bottom of the dust looks like.

Wei Wuji took everyone out of the cell, and the dungeon he moved to was only Hua Huang. Not to mention the coldness and darkness, at night when the door was closed and the lights were turned off, only Hua Huang was alone.Even if they called loudly, all they could respond was a strange echo.Such a place is really terrifying for a person like Huahuang who has killed so many people and done so many bad things in his life.

The whole night, Hua Huang seemed to watch helplessly as those people who were killed by him all came back to seek revenge on him.No matter how he called, it was useless. Even at this moment, he felt that those innocent souls were hiding in a secret corner of the cell and staring at him.How could he not be afraid of this?
Rong Jin flicked his fingers lazily, and a small hole appeared on the railing of the cell next to Huahuang with a whoosh.Hua Huang, who had been calling non-stop, suddenly fell silent as if his throat was stuck by something, but stared at Rong Jin with wide eyes in horror.

Rong Jin looked at Emperor Xiyue indifferently, and said lightly: "Think about it carefully, what do you want to say. Do you understand? This is your last chance, after that, no matter what you want to say, I will not be interested Listen again."

Hua Huang's wrinkled face was filled with unconcealable horror, but he didn't beg for mercy immediately.Gritting his teeth, he said, "I am Emperor Hua, you can't treat me like this!"

Rong Jin seemed to hear something funny, so he smiled without sincerity, and said lightly: "You are the Supreme Emperor, Hua Huang is staying in Fu Wang's mansion." The old man in front of him looked a little less aggressive.

Hua Huang is not a fool, after the initial panic, his rationality gradually returned.Slowly retreating to the previous pile of straw and sitting down, Hua Huang looked at Rong Jin and said, "What do you want me to say? Even if you capture the imperial city, so what? You won't get anything!"

Speaking of this, Hua Huang couldn't help feeling a little complacent again.He had already made preparations in advance, even if Huaguo was destroyed, everything in Huaguo would be his, no matter if it was Xiyue or Beihan, don't try to take anything away from him!
Rong Jin snorted softly, of course he knew what Hua Huang was referring to.Yesterday, after the capital of the Western Great Army, it was discovered that there was no money in the treasury of Huaguo, the private treasury of the imperial palace, or even the major banks in the capital.Huahuang sent people to search all the dignitaries and rich merchants' homes in the capital in advance. Originally, there were not many people in Xiyue and Beihan who could stay in the capital, and they were all busy making tiger charms and siege. Notice where Huahuang got these things.The only person who knows... probably is the pile of dead bodies in the palace hall.

It is said that money is not everything, but without money is absolutely impossible.There is some truth to this statement no matter where it is placed.For example, now, the food left in the entire capital of Huaguo can support all military and civilian expenses for about two months at most.But after searching all the treasuries of Huaguo, they couldn't find any money, which means that the people of the entire Huaguo Imperial City and the Xiyue army who surrendered must rely on Xiyue to support them.In addition, the treasury is gone, and Xiyue has annexed a piece of land as large as Huaguo, and it also needs money to manage it.There are only two ways, first, to collect taxes, and second, to raise money from the Xiyue treasury.

The first method will definitely not work. We have just experienced the war, and we will collect taxes twice a year. I am afraid that the people who are still submissive in the original Hua Kingdom will have to get up for breakfast again.The second one wasn't so pretty either.Xiyue is rich, and the national treasury is fairly full, but Rong Jin has been planning to train troops for the past two years, and this time it will cost a lot to send troops. One treasury supports two countries, and Mr. Rong Jiu thinks it is a bit cheating.

Seeing Rong Jin's gloomy face, Hua Huang became even more proud.

Rong Jin sneered and said, "I don't believe that those things can grow wings and fly. As long as they are still in the imperial city, I can dig him out even if I dig three feet." Emperor Xiyue didn't care , just looked at Rong Jin mockingly, as if convinced that he was doing nothing.

Seeing Rong Jin narrowing his eyes dangerously, Mu Qingyi smiled lightly and raised his hand to hold his hand, signaling him not to be impatient.

Rong Jin froze for a moment, seeing Mu Qingyi's eyes as clear as water, he felt calm in his heart.He smiled faintly at Mu Qingyi, indicating that he was fine.Mu Qingyi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, let me handle this."

Rong Jin frowned, he didn't want Qing Qing to deal with this old man at all.

Mu Qingyi raised her eyebrows, "Your Majesty doesn't believe me?"

"How could it be?!" Rong Jin quickly denied, "I believe in Qingqing the most in this world, I'm afraid Qingqing will be tired." Mu Qingyi said with a satisfied smile: "That's good, your business There are too many, let’s deal with it first, don’t let Wuji keep looking for you everywhere.”

But in just one day, Mr. Wei began to regret his decision to insist on recognizing his brother.It would be fine if he recognized an ordinary brother, but he wanted to recognize an emperor as his brother.It would be fine if it was an ordinary emperor, but the emperor who was born by his mother-in-law was actually Rong Jin.Young Master Rong Jiu is very magnanimous, and he definitely does not have the casual suspicion of ordinary emperors.So... He can push all the things he doesn't want to do to his brother.Young Master Rong Jiu is very smart, so he always has so many unconstrained ideas.But...he was only responsible for thinking, and it was others who did the hard work.
