Chapter 742

......

More and more court officials have "spoken for justice" and demanded that money be donated to fill the treasury.

Now Zhao Wujiang has broken the rules and used coercion and temptation, forcing most of them to stand up.

Whether it is fear of power or greed for power, as long as they are grasped, they will naturally be able to pay.

Zhao Wujiang had long asked the Minister of Honglu Temple to help record the amount of the ministers.

Most of the court officials have donated, but only a small number are still waiting and watching.

When Zhao Wujiang knew about it, he clasped his fists and bowed to Dugu Yihe:

"uncle."

Dugu Yihe nodded. He and Zhao Wujiang discussed today's matter from the beginning, and knew that Zhao Wujiang would take three levels of measures to get all officials to donate.

The first is to use evidence to threaten, the second is to use official positions to induce them, and the third is to require him and the old fox Liu Zhe to take the lead.

Dugu Yiheyuan burst into Yuezhi and raised his glass with one hand to signal everyone:

"I am Dugu Yihe, I am willing to fill the treasury with 100,000 taels of silver!"

As soon as these words were said, the ministers were in an uproar. Most of them could not take out the huge amount of silver. Although they had a lot of money in recent years, they were only tens of thousands of taels. The head of the Dugu family is worthy of being the head of the Dugu family, and they could say 100,000.

At the same time, they were very frightened that the head of the Dugu family would actually support Zhao Wujiang, which was something they did not expect.

As Dugu Yihe's identity, he will definitely not be coerced and tempted. How did Zhao Wujiang persuade Dugu Yihe?

Dugu Yihe's face was slightly dark and his eyebrows were sharp:

"My son Tianqing protects the border defense of Daxia in the northern border, and also protects the people and colleagues of Daxia.

If the national treasury is empty, where are the military pay and food? Could it be that it will cause a mutiny in the army?

The matter of donating money to fill the treasury should have been the same!"

Liu Zhe smiled:

"I also took out 100,000 taels to fill the treasury!

I hope my colleagues don’t let me disappoint you, Lord Dugu and even the Emperor…”

The ministers immediately became nervous. Both Dugu Yihe and Liu Zhe made them feel murderous intent, as if they would not give up and would not be able to leave the banquet hall today.

The remaining ministers who had not donated yet made a statement to donate, and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue kept recording, while the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue cooperated with each other.

The ministers knew in their hearts that if Dugu Yihe and Liu Zhe were just saying donations today, they would definitely not follow, because they had all excuses, such as the Liu family was a middle-aged family, the Dugu family was a large family, and naturally had a rich background, etc.

But the key today is that Zhao Wujiang took the lead in making a name for himself, and used the mysterious account book to threaten some court officials, and then used two tokens of Shangshu to lure some court officials, leaving the remaining court officials in a state of isolation and helplessness.

In addition, Liu Zhe and Dugu Yihe came to the end. Everyone present, who dared not to donate?

Their eyes of Zhao Wujiang became more and more solemn, shocked by Zhao Wujiang's grievances and disgraces, and even more shocked by the banquet.

They will not forget what Liu Zhe said before that this banquet was entrusted by Zhao Wujiang.

If you can ask Liu Zhe for help, it means that Zhao Wujiang and Liu Zhe must have a good relationship, otherwise why did Liu Zhe help Zhao Wujiang instead of others?

Now Zhao Wujiang has the background of two aristocratic families, Dugu and Liu families, and ordinary people cannot provoke them.

Liu Zhe also admired Zhao Wujiang more and more. He received news from the palace today that his two granddaughters were favored last night, which proved that Zhao Wujiang was capable of giving advice to the emperor, and the emperor also favored Zhao Wujiang more.

At today's banquet, he originally planned to help Zhao Wujiang after being neglected. He made a donation by himself, which would lead a group of court officials.

But he did not expect that Zhao Wujiang would take the lead in playing two cards to defeat most of the court officials. Obviously, Zhao Wujiang has a clearer understanding of the current ministers. He is not the kind of young officials who have just entered the court, but more like a scheming official.

Zhao Wujiang's everything made Liu Zhe sigh in his heart. He seemed to see himself as he was in middle age, or the genius he yearned for when he was young.

Dugu Yihe lifted the wine pot and filled Zhao Wujiang with a glass of emotion:

"A nephew has a good hand, but unfortunately... some of them are born at the wrong time... This Daxia...ah..."

"Why did my uncle say this?" Zhao Wujiang respected Dugu Yihe and drank it all in one go.

Dugu Yihe shook his head and sighed:

“Sewing has been difficult since ancient times!

Now that the court is full of holes, everyone is in danger, and they are all taking advantage of self-interest, Daxia will only decline more and more...

It is difficult to make up for it..."

Zhao Wujiang's eyes were clearly black and white. He smiled faintly, raised his glass and then greeted Dugu Yihe:

"Uncle, it's hard for one person to do it, but we all work together!

You and I work together, Huang Tian will never let it go!”

Dugu Yihe was deeply moved and shook his head and laughed:

"If everyone in the court is as talented as you, why worry about not being prosperous in Daxia?"

"What? Dugu's head, do you feel sorry for your money?" Liu Zhe walked over with a wine pot. When he saw Dugu Yihe and Zhao Wujiang talking to each other, he was very moved and a little confused, so he asked quips.

"No." Dugu Yihe shook his head and sighed, drank the glass of wine, raised his glass to signal Liu Zhe to come over, and he replied in his heart:

"I just feel sorry for him, Zhao Wujiang...I don't have a complete man."
