Biography of Ilha in Qing Chuan

Chapter 251

Kangxi was almost outraged by his son, and yelled at the old ten: "You bastard, who allowed you to go to the household department to borrow money to buy Zhuangzi? Is it possible that the money from the treasury is for you to buy Zhuangzi?" " After speaking, the teacup in his hand flew towards Old Ten who was kneeling on the ground, and this time it hit him on the forehead impartially.

The old ten said "Ah yo", covering his head and wanting to explain something, Yinzhen hurriedly stepped forward to cover his mouth, and said to Kangxi: "Huang Ama calm down, the tenth brother drank too much last night, and today his mind is still not clear Don't worry, Huang Ama, the tenth brother who owes you will definitely pay back, definitely." After speaking, he glanced thoughtfully at Yinhu who had been kneeling quietly beside him.There was an inexplicable look in his eyes.

"Huang Ama, the tenth brother is still young and ignorant, and he doesn't owe much money. Please forgive him for a while." Yinzhen, who had been silent all this time, seldom opened his mouth.As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Ba glanced towards Yinzhen with a complicated expression.

Lao Jiu and Lao Shi were also surprised to see Yinzhen who suddenly spoke up for them.The fourth child usually looks lonely and hard to get close to, but at this juncture he is still willing to say a word for the tenth child. No matter how you say it, both Yinzhen and Yinrong have changed my impression of him a lot.

When Kangxi heard the fourth and ninth sons say this, he finally felt that there was a ladder to go down.With a cold snort, he said, "Buying Zhuangzi, thank you for being able to speak out, I am so ashamed for you. The money you owe, no matter what, even if you sell it, you must pay it back within three months."

Seeing Yinzhen winking at him all the time, the old ten didn't dare to confront Kangxi now, so he obediently agreed and lowered his head.

The son solved it, and Kangxi really felt that his body was much stiffer.

So the next day in the court hall, he was very angry at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Kangxi is indeed angry, some people on this list.The family was not short of money at all, but they still borrowed a lot of money from the household department like the trend, all with the idea of ​​not borrowing for nothing.The people in the back saw that everyone had borrowed money, and if they didn't borrow it, they would be at a disadvantage, so they all went to the household department to make IOUs to borrow money.Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for Yinzhen to say that there is no silver in the treasury, but only a cabinet of IOUs.

"Fourth, how do you manage the Ministry of Households? I didn't know until now that the national treasury is empty!" Kangxi can only use Yinzhen to stand out at this time. After all, he is his son, and Kangxi feels that it is okay to take the blame for himself. Wronged him.

"My son is guilty." Yinzhen was also wronged, he just arrived in the household department not long ago, okay, how long ago were these loans.But in the court, he couldn't contradict Kangxi, so he could only admit it with gritted teeth.

Seeing Yinzhen's sense of humor, the old man didn't criticize too much, but just snorted coldly and glanced at the civil and military officials in the hall, thinking that these people had emptied his treasury, his expression became even worse for a while.

"The fourth son ordered you to be responsible for paying the debts owed by the household department. Now I only give you three months, and you must make up all the debts in three months." Kangxi also knew the seriousness of the matter, if this would lead to war Together, the consequences are unimaginable, so getting the money back is the most important thing.

"Huang Ama, on this list, Wei, Li, and the three adults in Jiangnan owe the most. If the three of them can take the lead in repaying the debt, I promise to make up the debt within one month."

Just like what Yinzhen said to Yi Erha, these three families are the biggest borrowers and Kangxi's confidants, otherwise Kangxi couldn't entrust them with such an important task of keeping an eye on Jiangnan, and even made money for the three families. Plum.

Of course, Kangxi also knew how the three families owed the money. He did not spend less money on his southern tours.

The expenses for the southern tour were all paid by the three families together. Kangxi had a reputation for being frugal, but no one was taken advantage of.

The three families all thought that the money was spent on Kangxi, and the old man should know what to do and would help them off their debts, so he didn't take the debt to heart.Still living a life of luxury and luxury.

It's not that they don't have money to pay back. With Kangxi's fat job to make money, it doesn't mean they can't pay out the millions of dollars owed.It's just relying on the emperor's love for them, and the money was used on the emperor himself, so he didn't plan to pay it back at all.

Besides, they also have sons and grandchildren. They have lived a rich life for a long time, and there are not many descendants in the family.It is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.These people also have to think more about their useless children and grandchildren.

Kangxi originally thought that he would give Jiangnan a secret decree, and let the three families make up the money and it would be over, but he did not expect that his son, who has always been cold and low-key, would not give him any face at all, and embarrass him on the spot .

In front of all civil and military officials, he couldn't do without expressing his position at this moment.Kangxi knew that if he waived the money owed by the three families of Wei, Li, and Cao today, he would never even think about getting back any money owed by the civil and military officials standing below.The old man was very angry by Yinzhen, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only hold back his anger and order the officials in charge of drafting the order.He drew up an imperial decree and sent it to the south of the Yangtze River at high speed.
