Chapter 494 (1/2)
Seeing that it was about to enter the winter moon, at this time, unconsciously, I suddenly felt that things on the market were slowly becoming more expensive.
At first, I didn't think it was just that some jewelry and luxury goods became more expensive. Originally, these things were only affordable to some rich people. Even if they became more expensive, few people could notice.
But gradually, cloth, tea and other things used in daily life are two or three percent more expensive.
For a moment, the people began to talk.
Finally, the emperor finally realized that he was angry in the imperial court and asked the Minister of household.
The Minister of household is also a paste. He just heard about it. How can good prices be chaotic?
Moreover, over the years, he has taken care of the household department and customized a set of price fluctuation table that is very consistent with the market at this time.
If it were not for natural and man-made disasters, how could there be such a large-scale price fluctuation.
What's funny is that he didn't find out about the Minister of household. When he found out, the emperor already knew.
The Minister of household has been working in front of the emperor for a long time. Why don't you know what to do at this time.
Without any excuse, he knelt down to admit his mistake and promised to find out the whole thing immediately.
However, the soaring price has reached the capital. We can see how much this matter has been caused.
For a time, some people were worried. After all, this is a major issue related to the national economy.
One is bad, but it will make a big mistake.
Chu Yuehua naturally knows that Chi Ye is indispensable in this matter. She is worried, but she still has to live.
What's more, since Chi Ye chose to do so, he naturally has his reason. Therefore, Chu Yuehua doesn't ask.
Soon, things came out. It was because the local government suddenly raised the tax on merchants.
The emperor was furious when he learned the whole story.
The emperor doesn't know how big the problem is. People with a little brain know it.
At present, Qi Chonghuan stood up: ”father emperor, at this time, the relationship is very important, which directly affects the people's livelihood foundation of Qi. At this time, we must strictly investigate, and we should catch all the main criminals and punish them severely.”
He spoke loudly, and listening made people feel dignified.
At that moment, someone immediately came out and agreed. Even Qin Zhong, the censor doctor who has always only swept the snow in front of the door and done his duty well, agreed.
The emperor frowned for a while before calming down his anger, nodded and said, ”old seven has a point. This matter must be strictly investigated. It has come out under our eyes. We really don't pay attention to the royal family.”
After the people agreed for a while, the emperor suddenly asked, ”who do you Aiqing think should be in charge at this time?
Since they can make things so big, it can be seen that these moths have no fear. If they are not a person who can hold them down, I'm afraid they can't hold them down. ”
As soon as he said this, Qin Zhong immediately said, ”emperor, the relationship is very important at this time. Since there can be such a big noise, if there is no support in the court, I'm afraid no one will believe it.
Therefore, the minister suggested that it is better to choose a prince to investigate. With the identity of the prince, those people want to act rashly and have to weigh it. ”
Qin Zhong's words immediately attracted the approval of many people: ”Lord Qin is right. It must be so.”
When the third Lord heard the speech, he strode out: ”my son is willing to share my worries for my father and Emperor.”
A smile slowly appeared on the emperor's face, but soon Qi Chonghuan also stepped forward: ”my son's minister is also willing to share his worries for my father and Emperor.”
”The seventh brother is still too young. This time it's not simple. I'm afraid it's difficult to subdue those local snakes when the seventh brother goes.”
