Chapter 1170 No Money to Support Idle People

Jiang Ran leaned against the bed, feeling dizzy, but she still had to brace herself for comfort.

"Don't be angry, Auntie Huang, and be careful with yourself. Your Majesty also wants you to have a rest and enjoy your happiness." Jiang Ran said, "You brought up Your Majesty, how can I not be filial to you? Let me tell you, this is all. The Queen is up to something in there."

The Empress Dowager said: "Actually, the Ai family also knows in their hearts that the emperor is completely controlled by the queen. The Ai family has been in the palace for decades, what kind of ups and downs have they not seen? But they have never seen it before. Let the emperor favor only one queen."

Jiang Ran was extremely jealous and said: "Since Concubine Jing left, she is the only one in this palace. Even Concubine Ning has left the palace. What use can the remaining three or two kittens do? The emperor doesn't even have an eyelid. I won’t even give you a cent.”

The Queen Mother frowned.

At this time, the eunuch came to announce that the Queen had arrived.

"Whatever you say comes true."

The Queen Mother said, "Let her come in."

Yun Dai walked in and saluted her.

"Queen, please excuse me." The Empress Dowager said lukewarmly, "Now that all the twenty-four bureaus in this palace are in your charge, how can you still be so free to visit the Ai family?"

Yun Dai smiled and said: "It is what I should do to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. It has nothing to do with whether I am busy or not."

The Empress Dowager snorted, thinking that this damn girl just had a clever mouth.

"What are you doing here now?" she asked.

"Back to the Empress Dowager, I'm here to see if Miss Jiang has left Beijing. If there's anything you need to take care of, I'm here to help." Yun Dai said with a smile.

"Leave Beijing?" Jiang Ran was stunned, "When did I say I was leaving Beijing?"

"Physician Ouyang said that your illness is almost healed and you can leave the palace and go home." Yun Dai said calmly.

"I'm not well, where can I be?"

"Doctor Ouyang said you are cured, so you are cured."

"What does he say?" Jiang Ran was now deposed as a commoner, so he was no longer afraid of the queen.

Yun Dai smiled: "The emperor said that Ouyang has the final say, and he has the final say."

She turned to face the Empress Dowager with a bright smile: "Today, I am sending Miss Jiang out of the palace following the emperor's order. I know that the Empress Dowager is reluctant to let go of Miss Jiang, but I can't even do it according to the emperor's order. Don’t obey.”

The Empress Dowager was extremely angry: "The Ai family said that they would keep Ran'er in the palace for a longer period of time to accompany the Ai family. The emperor also agreed. How long has it been since then for her to leave? Isn't it the empress's lie? It’s an imperial edict.”

"The Empress Dowager does not dare to take me as a concubine." Yun Dai said with a smile, "Jiang Ran has lived in the palace for many days. Although she is the grand-niece of the Empress Dowager, she is still a deposed person. I'm a commoner. It's not appropriate to live in the palace like this."

"What's inappropriate? The relatives of the Ai family can live here if they want!"

"If you have to live, that's fine." Yun Dai asked Baoxing to hand over an abacus and fiddled with it, "The Empress Dowager also knows that the late emperor left a lot of shortfalls. Not only did the Ministry of Revenue have no money, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs also had no money. Silver. Do people need money when they suffer disasters? Do they need money to support thousands of officials? Do they need food and clothing for millions of soldiers? Do they need money to build river embankments?"

The Queen Mother was struck by her calculations and her brain was buzzing.

She said angrily: "What are you talking about? Of course, someone will take care of these things."

"Who cares? Isn't the Emperor worried? Money will not fall from the world." Yun Dai put her calculations away, "The daily expenses of our harem are not small, and we have no money to support more idle people. Miss Jiang Ran thought It’s okay to stay with the Empress Dowager. The food and lodging expenses must be paid in full.”

Good night.
