Chapter 548 Received a Letter from Dayan
Dachen, the general’s mansion.
In the blink of an eye, A Ci had been gone for almost half a month.
Logically, there should have been a letter in the past two days, but there was no news from her.
Your Majesty has been very supportive recently.
He made a big fuss about the incident of King Huai and not only cut down on his own food and clothing expenses, but also reduced the expenses of the harem to the lowest level.
All the money saved was handed over to Lu Xin and exchanged for food and supplies, which were secretly transported to Tongzhou and Yongzhou.
Moreover, several families that had previously had connections with King Huai were raided, and all the proceeds from the confiscations were exchanged for weapons.
The common people only saw the court's swift and decisive actions, and had no sense of the impending storm.
Feng Si rushed to Shan Li with a secret letter in his hand, "Master! Master! Madam has sent a letter!"
When Shan Li heard his voice, he was so excited that he almost knocked over the inkstone on the table.
He took two steps forward to greet Feng Si and snatched the secret letter from her hand.
Song Qingci wrote with a gel pen. Although the handwriting was small, it was very clear, and even the spaces between each syllable were very clear.
Anyone who knows pinyin will know what she is saying at a glance.
In the past few days, Shan Li not only reorganized the people under his command who could be used, but also took the time to find His Majesty the Emperor to study Pinyin.
Smart people learn things quickly. It only took Shan Li two hours to learn it.
After reviewing for a few days, he now has no difficulty in finding this.
The more he read the letter, the uglier his expression became.
Feng Si stood by and didn't dare to say a word. After a while, he heard Shan Li ordered, "Prepare the car! I want to go to the palace."
Eunuch Guo stood at the door of the imperial study, hesitating whether to go in.
The Emperor has been in a very bad temper lately. Even the Imperial Censor was scolded by him.
"You old thing, what are you doing loitering at the door? Why don't you come in!" Li Jianguo had already noticed that Eunuch Guo was loitering behind the door. He thought that he would come in when he had hesitated enough, but he didn't expect that a cup of tea had passed and he was still hesitating.
Finally, he couldn't help it and yelled at him.
When Eunuch Guo was called, he felt relieved and immediately bowed and walked in.
"Tell me! What's bothering you so much? It's been a long time since I started drinking tea." Li Jianguo's attitude towards things now is getting closer and closer to that in modern times.
The mountain above his head was gone, and there was no one suppressing him all the time, so he naturally felt much more comfortable.
"Your Majesty, I am hesitant because of the Empress's matter." The Emperor had personally given Eunuch Guo a way out, so there was no reason for him not to step down.
He just dumped everything out at once.
"Your Majesty has recently cut down on the expenses of the harem. Miss Lingzhi from the Queen's palace found me and gave me these things." As he spoke, Eunuch Guo took out a stack of silver bills from his arms.
Li Jianguo took it and counted it carefully, finding it was about thirty thousand taels.
Seeing that His Majesty did not speak, Eunuch Guo continued, "Miss Lingzhi said that this is the dowry money of the Empress. The Empress has no use for it in the harem, so it was handed over to Your Majesty for disposal."
After the story was told, Eunuch Guo tactfully stepped aside and said nothing more.
Li Jianguo looked at the banknote in his hand and thought of Queen Zhou's face.
After a while, he said to Eunuch Guo, "Let's go. I haven't been to the Queen's Palace for a long time. Today is a good time. You accompany me to take a look. By the way, tell the Imperial Kitchen that I will have lunch in the Queen's Palace at noon today."
