Chapter 1706: invite truthfully
Since it doesn\'t give him face like this, then he can\'t be blamed.
As soon as Lu Shushu entered the imperial study, he knelt down and said uneasily: "Your Majesty called Wei Chen to come, what is the important thing?"
Helian Rongjiu said coldly: "What do you say? Don\'t you know what you have done yourself?"
Lu Shulang listened to the cold voice of the emperor, with the appearance of asking for guilt, and swallowed in fear, thinking that he had heard people say in the past few days that some strangers were looking around near the water delivery area of their house, and there was a new one. The servant who came here knows everything about others and talks about it. He talked about a lot of things in the house, and said carefully: "Is your majesty talking about the delivery of water from Weichen\'s house?"
As for the two-day auction, it\'s not that he doesn\'t want to bid, but that he likes it. The bid is too high, and the price he doesn\'t like is too low. It\'s useless to take it home.
His Majesty also hinted at the court that day, they can participate, mainly to let those wealthy merchants in the capital to raise food.
And if you bid on your own, and those things didn\'t come to you in the end, wouldn\'t you be embarrassed?
Wrong…
Lu Shulang\'s face suddenly turned pale, he was wrong, no matter whether it was useful or not, he should have contributed a sum of money, which was considered as a donation of food and salaries.
His Majesty said it when he went to court a few days ago, and hoped that they would support his auction more. Even the Queen Mother and the prince and princess gave their beloved things to support. It shows how much His Majesty attaches great importance to this auction.
Although he hinted that it was mainly for the wealthy businessmen to pay, but since he informed them, he definitely hoped that they would be able to participate.
Why is he so confused, he didn\'t even bid for a single thing, no wonder His Majesty, who should be in the treasury now, has called him into the palace, obviously dissatisfied with him.
Helian Rongjiu was noncommittal.
Lu Shulang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen did this to prevent the spies in the city from getting water to drink. The city is so short of water, it is a good time to remove spies, so that the capital will be better in the future. For peace."
"It sounds grand." Helian Rongjiu said: "You are doing this because you don\'t want to give too much water out."
Lu Shulang said: "Weichen never meant this."
Helian Rongjiu said angrily: "I don\'t care what you mean, you are a writer, you have more rules than the prince\'s mansion, Prime Minister Suo, and more than the Ning\'an Hou mansion, who gave you the courage to dare to confront I am so obsessed with yin and yin!”
"People who can be used as spies, do you think they will be incompetent? If they can\'t find water, they will bear the brunt of those widows and loneliness in the city. If anything happens to them, they will all be blamed on you."
"Also, it\'s me who ordered the water supply to the prefectures. You added conditions without permission, and some people must have scolded me in the blood. You ruined my reputation in the hearts of some people, why should you be blamed!"
"Your Majesty... Wei Chen..."
"I don\'t want to hear your excuses, so why don\'t I invite you!"
Lu Shulang said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen is wrong. Wei Chen set rules privately because he was afraid that the water at home would not be enough. The water level of the well in Wei Chen\'s house has been getting lower and lower recently. Wei Chen is afraid that his family will not have enough water. People don\'t drink anymore."
