Chapter 229 Donations are everywhere

The three princes donated 100,000 taels of silver at this point.

The third prince was very angry, and the fifth prince was very angry.

The Seventh Prince is very awesome!

At this moment, he felt very proud.

I am no better than the fifth, or even the third!

I am also a prince who can donate 100,000 taels. Isn’t it awesome?

So, he looked up proudly, as if he stood out from the crowd, looking down at everyone.

But I found that some people seemed to be looking at him like fools.

What does it mean? Shouldn’t you admire it?

He was stunned for a moment and looked at the emperor.

The emperor rubbed his forehead at this moment, feeling a little worried.

These sons met Chen Xiao, and they were so stupider than the other one.

After a few words, the man's hands were gone for 100,000 taels of silver.

Especially the Seventh Prince, this was obviously digging a hole for him, and he insisted on jumping in and not letting him jump in, but Chen Xiao looked down on him.

This made the emperor even feel a little distressed. Why are there such idiots left?

Could it be not biological?

He even had this idea!

The Seventh Prince realized it later and gradually, he finally realized it.

His face suddenly looked ugly, and he thought to himself: It's over, don't he say he can't beat him to death? How can he do this?

Regret is useless.

The emperor agreed that the fundraiser was Chen Xiao. How could he regret it after he said something in the hall?

At this moment, he wanted to cry very much, but he didn't dare to show it. Only tears flowed quietly from the corners of his eyes...

Chen Xiao held back his laughter and saw that the three princes were cheated one by one, so he looked at all the ministers present.

Just now, the pit has been laid for the ministers.

The ministers can't do it if they don't donate.

So Chen Xiao said: "Dear ministers, they are pillars of the Long Kingdom. So, in the difficulties of the country, can you all generously donate money?"

How can I refuse this? Where is Your Majesty sitting?

As a result, the ministers expressed their loyalty and expressed their contributions.

So Chen Xiao walked up to the front and said, "Then, please stand up in order, report the names of the officials and the amount of donations one by one, so I can register."

A eunuch came out and stood beside Chen Xiao with a notebook and a pen.

The ministers looked ugly. Damn, Chen Xiao not only morally kidnapped everyone to donate in the hall, but also asked everyone to donate in public?

At that time, why would you be embarrassed to donate less?

In fact, this trick was learned from Chen Xiao when he was studying.

I remember when I was studying, I would donate here and where I would donate.

Go up one by one, and don’t give the money immediately. Go up and talk about how much to donate, and the head teacher will write down one by one.

When I get home, I will ask my parents for it. The class monitor will collect it next week.

Everyone must be curious, why didn’t they donate at that time?

Because at that time, the classmates didn’t have much money... you know!

So why do you have to register in advance if you donate at the beginning? You go one by one, and it’s so grand.

And when paying the money, just give it to the squad leader? So casual?

The reason is very simple. When everyone goes up to say how much to donate, everyone is shameless. In comparison, they don’t want to embarrass others, so they try to talk as much as possible.

When I get home, I will stubbornly fight with my parents.

By the time I paid the money, I had already determined how much I had to pay. It didn’t matter anymore. Just give the money!

This is the moral kidnapping that many times, many people encounter inadvertently.

In this case, who has not had a little self-esteem?

So, I have to live a life of face and suffer, and the taste has changed!

Chen Xiao was unscrupulous, but he couldn't do anything to cheat children and students.

But who has never been greedy for all the civil and military officials in the court? He has no burden to cheat these people!

The ministers were speechless. Some of the first-rank officials at the front went to the middle and spoke helplessly:

"The Left Prime Minister... donated 50,000 taels of silver..."

Fifty thousand taels are enough, Chen Xiao didn't say anything.

The right prime minister also came out: "The right prime minister 50,000 taels..."

With these two first-rank leaders, the Taishi, Taifu, Taibao, etc., all of them were 50,000 taels.

After a while, the second-rank officials all came to 340,000.

Then the third grade, 20,300.

The fourth grade is generally 20,000 taels.

All five and six grades are also out.

Very few of these low-grade people can attend morning court.

In half an hour, more than 200 civil and military officials donated all the money, a total of four million taels of silver.

Adding Chen Xiao’s 500,000 taels and the three princes’ 300,000 taels, a total of 4.8 million taels.

At the beginning, the emperor said that he would raise five million taels.

There is still 200,000 taels left.

But this is already very awesome.

It costs 5 million taels of silver, but in a short while, the emperor admires it very much.

"Chen Xiao, there is still 200,000 taels left. I will find a way to do this 200,000 taels!" the emperor spoke.

Chen Xiao said: "No need, Your Majesty, the empresses in the harem... don't have to worry about food and drink, and you have money. Your Majesty doesn't mind. I'll ask them to donate, right?"

The emperor was stunned and thought to himself that this guy had put his ideas on my woman?

However, it is not easy to object, saying, "They should also contribute some effort!"

Chen Xiao smiled.

Here, the morning court will almost end.

So he retreated from the court!

Today I left the court and the atmosphere was particularly strange.

Many ministers looked at Chen Xiao with dissatisfaction, as if they were very unhappy with Chen Xiao because of the donation.

Chen Xiaocai ignored their emotions and took the eunuch who kept accounts and happily headed towards the harem.

Seeing him like this, the ministers didn't know what he was happy about.

Have you forgotten that I promised to give 500,000 taels?

...

When he arrived at the harem, Chen Xiao first went to the imperial concubine.

The imperial concubine has a high status in the harem and is basically the highest among her peers.

In the harem, there was no royal palace in recent years.

This imperial concubine is often similar to the queen in everyone's eyes.

And the emperor's eldest son, the brave and warlike eldest prince, was her son.

After Chen Xiao arrived at the Imperial Concubine, he showed that he was from!

The imperial concubine had no expression on her face and directly took 30,000 taels of silver.

From beginning to end, I ignored it and didn't even look at Chen Xiao.

It doesn’t matter if Chen Xiao is, just give money.

So, he went to Huifei's place.

Concubine Hu was demoted to Hu Zhaoyi, and among the emperor's women, Concubine Hui should be the second.

Her son is the second prince!

From this we can see that the more capable the prince is, the higher the title of his mother.

Concubine Hui was also average in her attitude towards Chen Xiao, and gave Chen Xiao 30,000 taels of silver.

Then there was Concubine Shu, who had a grudge against Chen Xiao.

His son, the fifth prince, was cheated by Chen Xiao. He and Concubine Hu Zhaoyi, also went to the empress dowager's place to deal with Chen Xiao, but was scolded by the empress dowager.

She was naturally unhappy when she saw Chen Xiao coming to ask her to raise funds.

But after Chen Xiao's words, he showed that it was the emperor's intention, and then Concubine Shu had no choice but to give money.

After arriving all the way, Chen Xiao arrived at Zhuangning Pavilion of Concubine Sui.
