Chapter 276
"How many medicines are missing again? The money in the treasury is gone, and you can't even pay for military expenses, let alone buy medicines." The emperor continued to pace and said angrily, "Today I want to ask Jimo Wuxuan took some money, but something happened, and he didn't get the money, damn it."

"Your Majesty, this old slave has something to say, do you know if you should say it or not?"

"Go ahead."

"Although Mo Castle is rich, it is just a merchant after all. Why should the emperor be afraid of them? If you want their money, you can directly flatten Mo Castle and take Mo Castle's treasury as your own. Wouldn't it be better? What's more, Mo Castle is getting more and more arrogant, and it's almost no longer paying attention to you. If things go on like this, I'm afraid it will change."

"Wuzhi, do you really think that you can get their money by leveling Mo Castle? Jimo Wuxuan is a tough guy, if you use this method to force him to take money, I'm afraid you won't even get a penny."

"Why, why?" The old eunuch didn't understand, and felt that what the emperor said didn't make any sense.As long as you send a large army to besiege Mo Castle and threaten them to hand over the money, are you afraid you won't get the money?

The old eunuch didn't dare to say this, for fear of getting into trouble. After all, this is not something glorious.

The emperor was in a bad mood, because the old eunuch couldn't guess his mind, so he scolded the old eunuch, "Stupid, you people, you only know how to be reckless, and you don't know how to use your brain? You are like this, all of you All the princes are like this, always going against Mo Castle, it really drives me to death."

"Your majesty, old slave..."

"Unless Jimo Wuxuan handed over the silver willingly, or his silver will only become a treasure. I don't have so much time to hunt for treasure, and it's too late." When he finds the bag, he is afraid that his life will be over. There is still no time to search for the elixir of life, so it is better to let Jimo Wuxuan a little bit, as long as he can get the money anyway.

"Yes, the old slave is ignorant, the emperor appeases his anger."

"Hmph." The emperor snorted coldly, still feeling very annoyed, just after scolding the old eunuch for being stupid, he went to ask him again, "Do you have any good ways to get me the money right away?"

"This..." The old eunuch thought for a while, and replied with a smirk, "The main source of the national treasury is tax money. Why don't the emperor collect more taxes from the people, so that the money will come? Especially Mo Castle, the tax has increased, Mo Castle has to pay a lot of silver."

As soon as the emperor heard that he could get silver from Mo Castle, regardless of whether the method was good or bad, he immediately agreed, "It's a good way, it really is a good way, I'm going to make a decree now, let each place have [-]%, no, [-]% The tax will be implemented tomorrow. Eunuch Liu, you will go to Mo Castle tomorrow with the imperial decree and issue this decree to make Jimo Wuxuan pay the tax."

"Old slave obeys the order."

Ever since, an imperial decree came down that made the people suffer even more.

Early the next morning, Qian Diewu hadn't woken up yet, she was still sleeping with Jimo Wuxuan in her arms, but a servant girl's announcement came from outside the door, "Report to the Great Castle Master and Da Furen, Director Xu just said, Liu Eunuch came to Mo Castle early in the morning with the imperial decree."

Jimo Wuxuan's eyes were tightly closed, but his brows were slightly furrowed, it could be seen that he was very angry with what he heard just now, he slowly opened his eyes, not daring to move around, so as not to disturb the rest of the people around him.

However, Qian Diewu also heard what the maid said, and yawned, as if she hadn't woken up yet, she rubbed against Jimo Wuxuan, and complained: "What imperial decree did the emperor issue early in the morning? But he is the emperor, Even if the edict is issued in the middle of the night, we have to accept it, right?"

If she guessed correctly, this imperial decree must have something to do with money.

Thinking of money, Qian Diewu lost sleepiness, sat up immediately, and said even more angrily: "The emperor must have come to ask for money, yesterday he couldn't get it, and today he directly issued an imperial decree, which is really too much."

Jimo Wuxuan sat up slowly, was not disturbed by the imperial decree, and was in a very good mood. He squeezed Qiandiewu's chin with his hand, and said affectionately: "Madam, good morning, did you sleep well last night?"

"Okay, stop making trouble, the imperial edict is still outside! Let's prepare quickly and go to receive the imperial edict." Qian Diewu pushed Jimo Wuxuan's hand away, not in the mood to joke with him, got out of bed, put on shoes and clothes, Then go to freshen up.

"Don't worry, let's have breakfast first, I don't want my wife and children to go hungry." Jimo Wuxuan also got out of bed, but just put on his shoes and didn't go to dress, hugging Qiandiewu from behind , thinking about continuing to hug her to sleep.

He slept soundly last night, if it wasn't for that damned edict, he would still be having sweet dreams now!
Why is the emperor spending money so fast recently? It seems that the medicine money can't be used that much, right?

What went wrong?

Qian Diewu pulled away Jimo Wuxuan's hand, took his clothes off the hanger, and dressed him personally, "Let's have breakfast later, anyway, it won't take long to receive the imperial decree, and I can't wait to know the imperial decree now." What exactly is written in it?"

"Are you angry?"

"Yes, I'm angry. Although the emperor is the king of a country, what is the difference between what he does and what a robber does? If you have no money, I will ask you for it. If you don't use the imperial decree to persecute it, my husband's hard-earned blood and sweat Why should you give him money? Although he is the emperor, he must be reasonable, right?" Maybe she didn't know enough about the society where imperial power is supreme.

With the supremacy of the imperial power, can he really want what he wants like a robber?

That shouldn't be the case.

"Okay, don't be angry, this will ruin your body. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the child in your stomach." Jimo Wuxuan touched Qiandiewu's stomach with his hand, and found her stomach It was already protruding, so I was very curious, bent down, put my head in front of her belly, and took a closer look, "Die Wu, your belly is a little bit bigger than a few days ago."

"A pregnant woman's belly will be big, what's so strange?"

"It's very interesting to watch it grow up little by little! Come on, let me touch it and listen to it." Jimo Wuxuan continued to touch Qiandiewu's belly, and put his ear on it, listening to it carefully.

Qian Diewu really thought it was funny, but she didn't stop him, let him touch and listen, "Fool, you can't hear any sound now, at least you have to be pregnant for seven or eight months, the fetus will kick you to hear it." Feel it."

"It doesn't matter, I just want to listen anyway."

"Okay, okay, then listen."

"He's calling Daddy."

"That's your illusion."

"is it?"

"Yes." This man is really cute when he is stupid.

"One day, it will call me Daddy, right?" Jimo Wuxuan caressed Qiandiewu's belly, stood up straight, and kissed her on the forehead.

"Yes, it will be born safely, and then call your father." Qian Diewu put both hands on her abdomen, and sensed the life inside, secretly praying to God: God bless, she must be peaceful Ann gave birth to the child.

Wuxuan likes children so much, she doesn't want to let him down.

Recently, she has taken good care of her body. It should not be a big problem to have this child in the future, as long as there are no accidents.

"Of course, I'll wait for it to come out and call me daddy. If it's a daughter, like you, it's best."

"No, I want a son, like you, who is a powerful person. When the son grows up, he can help you take care of the family business, and we can enjoy life."

"So that's what you came up with! Well, let's have a son." Although he also wanted a daughter, having a baby is very painful, and he didn't want her to suffer a second time.

"Wait, now is not the time to discuss children, but to go out to receive the imperial decree and see what the emperor is up to? Get your clothes on quickly." Qian Diewu returned to the topic and continued to help Jimo Wuxuan organize his clothes. The maid also brought in the washing water, so she hurried to wash up.

Jimo Wuxuan's mind was still not on the imperial decree, and he talked about other things if he didn't talk about the child, "I don't know if Wuming got up at this time?"

"I'm sure he won't get up until the sun is three poles today."

"How can you be so sure?"

"Anyway, I'm sure. No, why do you ask such a question?" He never cared about when Wuming got up, why did he care about it today?
something wrong.

"It's nothing, I just thought of..." Jimo Wuxuan had a wicked smile on his face, obviously he was thinking about something serious.

Although Wuming and Shi Qingyun wandered around in the brothel from time to time, he knew that his younger brother had kept his body like a jade until now, and it finally broke yesterday.

"Thinking is not healthy." Qian Diewu rolled her eyes and glared at Jimo Wuxuan, knowing exactly what he was thinking.

"It's not healthy, it's normal for couples to have sex, just like you and me..."

"Okay, okay, don't be serious, let's go to receive the imperial decree." Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, she could guess that Lin Miaozhu must be miserable anyway.

Wait, why did she think about that?
Eunuch Liu came to Mo Castle early in the morning with the emperor's imperial decree. Although he had the imperial decree in his hand, he didn't dare to be arrogant. He obediently waited in the hall for Jimo Wuxuan to receive the imperial decree, and he was prepared to wait for a long time.

This is not the first time he has come to Mo Castle to deliver an edict. It is common for him to wait for half a day or even a day.

Even the emperor is unwilling to provoke Mo Chenggong, how can he, a eunuch, have the guts to dare to provoke him?

"Eunuch Liu, please have some refreshments first, the castle lord and the eldest lady will come later." Director Xu came over to inform Eunuch Liu after learning that Jimo Wuxuan and Qian Diewu were washing up.

Eunuch Liu was a little surprised, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and asked again, "Mr. Xu, what did you say just now, the castle master and the eldest lady will come later?"

"Yes, the castle master and the eldest lady are already washing and grooming, please wait a moment, Eunuch Liu."

"Ah good."

It's strange, why did Jimo Wuxuan and Qiandiewu come to receive the order immediately?

Just when Eunuch Liu was at a loss, Jimo Wuxuan and Qian Diewu had already walked into the hall.

"Eunuch Liu, good morning!" Qian Diewu greeted Eunuch Liu, glanced at the imperial decree in his hand, and didn't like the imperial decree much.

To be precise, she doesn't even have a good opinion of the imperial decree. The imperial decree must bring bad things, not good things.
