C19 There Is a Way to Amass Wealth

"Your Majesty, we still have to go to court today. The calamity that befell Li An seemed to have improved a little." Luo Ying looked at Jiang Qiuyue, who was looking through a small box sitting in front of the dressing table.

Jiang Qiuyue's flawless hands froze for a second, "Why?"

"It seems that the people from the Ling family are storing food in the Li An."

Jiang Qiuyue was stunned. "Imperial Consort?"

"This concubine thinks that it was decided by Imperial Concubine. The other people in the manor probably don't have such authority." Luo Ying rolled her eyes and said timidly.

It seemed like the imperial concubine was really as the rumors said, helping the whole world and loving the people like children. While she was still not doing anything after cutting herself off, he was already starting to stock up.

After two days, Jiang Qiuyue once again stood on top of the imperial court; this time, Xiao Ruoyu didn't bother to follow her.

Jiang Qiuyue sat on the dragon throne and coughed lightly. "I was thinking about the Li An victims, but the treasury was empty and I was unable to provide assistance. I was too worried and couldn't sleep at night."

The old eunuch replied obediently, "Your Majesty had to put in a lot of effort to injure his spirit. His wrist was accidentally injured, and his veins were also touched."

Although the ministers did not know what was going on, they remained calm and collected.

Jiang Qiuyue shook her sleeves in front of everyone's eyes, revealing the savage wound on her fair wrist.

The reason why Jiang Qiuyue had specially removed the bandage before coming was so that it would have a better 'program effect'.

Jiang Qiuyue shook her head and sighed. "The imperial physician told me that this sword wound is deep to the great arteries. If it isn't treated in time, I'm afraid I won't be able to live much longer …"

The ministers all frowned, obviously feeling that Jiang Qiuyue's words were too fresh and refined.

"The treatment of this injury requires a very expensive medicinal herb. This herb is priceless, and the treasury is empty. As the Son of Heaven, how can I only consider my own interests?" Jiang Qiuyue spoke passionately and almost cried tears.

At this point, the ministers more or less knew what she wanted to do.

Jiang Qiuyue continued to speak righteously, "Although I know that everyone loves me, but I believe that the safety of the people of Li'an is greater than my own safety. I am willing to not cure this disease and to take out my own money to help the people."

The ministers were all cursing in their hearts. They had never seen such a shameless person before!

He first said that he was concerned about the emperor, then changed the subject, saying that he didn't care about his own safety.

If he didn't collect donations to treat his illness, wouldn't he be a blabbermouth who would bully the king and flatter the others?

Even an idiot would know that this was just an ordinary injury, yet it was an exaggeration to say that it was fatal. This was clearly a form of extortion!

A group of eunuchs began to pour in from outside the palace. Each of them carried a metal box that was half a man's height. There was a total of a hundred people. They lined up neatly and passed through two rows of hundreds of civil and military officials.

Inside the metal box were boxes of shiny real gold and silver.

Jiang Qiuyue stood in front of the wooden box with a smile on her face. "I am willing to offer fifty thousand silver taels as a slight gift to the people of Lee Ang."

The ministers looked at each other in dismay. The few supporters who were usually close to her were the first to step forward.

The leader of the officials said in a deep voice, "We are willing to offer you 50,000 taels of silver to cure His Majesty's illness."

The rest echoed his words. "It is the root of the kingdom. Only by taking care of his health can His Majesty save the people of Lee Ang!"

Seeing that the results had been achieved, Jiang Qiuyue couldn't be bothered to correct them today, such as "the people are more important, the country is second, and the monarch is less important". There would be plenty of time in the future to teach them well.

The audience was in an uproar.

Fifty thousand silver was not a small number.

With someone starting the conversation, the others had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak.

In an instant, the voices of people bidding in the Tianyi Hall rose and fell, and it was not any less than the voice bidding in the auction.

Since the first person had already offered such a high number, the people behind couldn't be too stingy.

Jiang Qiuyue smiled as she watched her subjects talk. In a trance, she saw herself carrying a box full of money that had fallen from the sky.

After all the ministers had paid the price, she smiled and said happily, "My dear officials, you all have placed great expectations on my health. I will not disappoint you all for your hard work."

All the ministers looked at him with contempt in their hearts. Did he speak human words?

Down and back.

Jiang Qiuyue was the first to walk out of the court. Luo Ying who was half a step behind her whispered, "Your Majesty, how are you …" Take out this fifty thousand silver? "

He hadn't seen Jiang Qiuyue go to the national treasury to collect the silver in the past few days, it couldn't have been an imitation, right?

The corners of Jiang Qiuyue's mouth curled up into a playful smile. The eunuch who carried the silver just happened to be carrying the metal box as he passed by them.

A box full of silver taels, they actually carried it with light steps, without any effort at all.

Luo Ying looked curiously at Jiang Qiuyue, who smiled at him and nodded.

He went up to a young eunuch and pulled him up. He rummaged through the iron chest he was carrying, and sure enough, only the first floor was made of silver, and the bottom was filled with cotton.

If every box was like this, then forget about fifty thousand taels, even five thousand would be a problem.

Luo Ying's pink lips were slightly opened, and her eyes were full of shock. It was likely that the court officials would be so angry that their beards would fly off if they knew the truth.

Jiang Qiuyue was in an extremely good mood and was extremely satisfied as she happily boarded the dragon chariot.

There was nothing more pleasing than making a huge fortune in the white wolf form.
