Mu Yangling has not studied Qing history specifically, but because the age is not very long, even if she does not study it in depth, she still knows some common sense that she should know.

Emperor Kangxi was very powerful. At the same time, he was also very extravagant. His extravagance was not manifested in his daily life, but in his several trips to the south of the Yangtze River.

In order to pick up the car, officials along the coast spent money like running water. Emperor Kangxi said that he must save to save, but in fact he said that the officials built gardens and bought exotic flowers and plants. , but the salaries of the officials are only that. Where do they get the money?

Either exploited from the people or borrowed from the treasury, and in the end, it came from the people.

Yongzheng was so cruel to his brother, why did he get such a high evaluation in the history books?

Because what he took over from Kangxi was a mess, a dynasty that was prosperous on the surface, but decayed on the inside. It was all thanks to him to clean up the government and reform the people, so that Kangxi could have a prosperous era. It can be said that Yongzheng has been in power for thirteen years. It supported the second half of the prosperous period of Kang and Gan Dynasty, while the first half was laid by Kangxi. As for the prodigal son of Qianlong, he was dedicated to consuming the wealth accumulated by his father and the government of Qingming officials. Whoever admired him the most was Kangxi. God, not his father?

It can be said that Qianlong and Emperor Gaozong of Dazhou are like brothers in trouble.

Mu Yangling didn't want his little treasure to grow up like Kangxi Qianlong, spending money like running water and blindly being a loser.

There are benefits to ??Southern Patrol, but those benefits are almost negligible compared to its harms.

Mu Yangling spread out the paper and wrote down one by one, the emperor's chariots and horses, the imperial guards and royal guards who escorted him, and the palace servants who accompanied him, the food and accommodation along the way, and the pick-up and drop-off along the way. , as well as the palace or garden built for the pick-up, the treasures the officials want to collect...

The data obtained from ?? made the five children open their mouths. Only the second prince, who didn't know the magic of money, looked at the five elder brothers blankly, not knowing why they all gasped, so shocked.

San Xiao and Xiao Xiong both looked at Xiao Bao and said, "You are so rich."

Xiaobao hurriedly waved his hand, "I don't have any money right now," he paused and then said, "My father's royal treasury doesn't have so much money, even if I have so much money when I become emperor, I would be reluctant to spend it on a trip. so much."

Mu Yangling put down his pen and said, "This is still a conservative estimate. If the officials who pick up the car are blindly seeking for odds and money, I'm afraid they won't be able to beat the two million. Do you know how much Sui Yangdi Nan will spend next time? Don't say it's for inspection, you are traveling with a holy car, do local officials dare to let you see beggars along the street, and the victims of the disaster will not die of starvation? It's been a long time to decorate the peace, Xiaobao, I told you to come out and see the outside world and experience it. I didn’t ask you to go out like this, although it’s not right for you to leave the palace this time, but what you see is the real life of the people.”

Little Treasure is thoughtful.

"Don't think that when you become the emperor, you will go out with a royal car with a single order. It will not only harm the people, but also yourself. If you record this in the history books, you will only have a compliment to show the prestige of the country. , I'm afraid that more is to call you extravagant, but you are actually very frugal, do you think you are wrong?"

Xiaobao nodded fiercely, "It's wrong."

Mu Yangling touched his head and said, "Aunt Si has no good opinion about your going out to Beijing to practice, but your proposal is obviously not good, let's think about it slowly, if not, just save where you want to go. , in the future, give your son a Zen seat and come out to play."

Xiaobao pouted and said, "This is the idea that my fourth uncle gave me, not me."

Mu Yangling gritted his teeth, feeling that all Qi Haoran had come up with were bad ideas.

When the second prince saw that they had finished speaking, he raised his little hand and asked, "Fourth aunt, can we go out to see the sea today? I haven't seen the sea since I grew up."

"I haven't seen it either." Xiaobao shouted.

Mu Yangling smiled, "How old are you, you can say something like this, okay, let the bear take you there, but come back early in the afternoon, and don't go into the sea."

The six children rushed out and ran out happily.

Mu Yangling went to Qi Haoran to settle the bill with the bill on the table, and asked him to give less bad ideas to the children.

Mu Yangling spread the bill in front of him and said, "Look, the advice you provided, Xiaobao's travel expenses after he ascended the throne."

Qi Haoran widened his eyes and shouted, "You misrepresented the meaning of the Lord, how can you spend so much on a trip?"

"Then you said that among the emperors of the past dynasties, who went out to simply play or patrol, and how much did it cost?"

Qi Haoran stared.

Mu Yangling counted with his fingers, "I don't read much, and the only ones I can count are Qin Shihuang and Sui Yangdi, oh, and Zhou Shizong, but it is said that he has only reached halfway, and seeing the huge cost, it hurts greatly, not only Returning halfway, I also killed several corrupt officials who used the mouth of the imperial patrol to corrupt and raid the people, who else is there besides them?”

"There are many more. Several emperors of the Tang Dynasty have traveled."

"Oh, where did they go and how much did they cost?"

Qi Haoran frowned, "I'm not a scholar from the Hanlin Academy, how could I know where they went and how much it cost? In short, the cost won't be so big, otherwise the courtiers would have fallen out."

"That must be quite a lot. Do you know how much it costs for our family of five to travel all the way from the south to the north, eating, drinking, living, and having fun?"

Qi Haoran looked at Mu Yangling.

"Two hundred taels is enough to go to the sky, but it is thrifty for the emperor to travel 200,000 taels. If people like Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty build a palace ahead of time and search for rare treasures, two million may not be enough. Two hundred Wow, think about the clunking silver..."

Qi Haoran sat on the chair with a stern face and said, "When Xiaobao comes back, I will tell him that he is not allowed to use the imperial car to travel."

"Don't worry, you don't need to talk about it. Who do you think this bill is calculated for? That kid will not be able to drive out of Beijing if he sees this general ledger, so he is holding it."

"That's what you taught..." Qi Haoran whispered.

He felt that the boy would not change his lack of money. Of course, his daughter was richer. Thinking of his daughter, Qi Haoran couldn't help but look at Mu Yangling's belly, touched her belly, and said, "A Ling, let Wang The imperial doctor will show you, Hutou and the others are all five years old, why don't we have a daughter yet?"

Mu Yangling saw that he had digressed, and her face darkened, but she also wanted to have a beautiful, well-behaved daughter.

Qi Haoran saw her thinking, and immediately hugged her and begged: "How about you find some more doctors to show you, there is only one doctor Wang Tai, so there may be some omissions."

Mu Yangling twisted his waist and said, "We are talking about business."

"Is there a bigger business than this? If you don't object, just take it as your agreement."

"Why is it only me who sees it, it may also be your problem."

"How is this possible," Qi Haoran said confidently: "Men all over the world have problems and it is impossible for me to have problems."

Mu Yangling hummed and said, "Anyway, you don't look at me, neither, let's watch together."

Qi Haoran hurriedly coaxed her, "Okay, okay, it's okay for me to accompany you, you are so old, how can you be afraid of the doctor..."
