I am a corrupt official, but they say I am a loyal minister!

"good! In this case, I will continue to reward Lin Aiqing!"

Then, the empress spat out a bunch of rewards, which made Lin Beifan dizzy and made all the officials feel jealous.

However, because they had learned from the past, they did not dare to stop them anymore.

They were afraid of being pissed to death by some bastard..

For Lin Beifan, just keep it if it is beneficial, so he said loudly:"Thank you Lord for your kindness!"

"Next, discuss the reception!

The empress said:"The envoys from the Doro Kingdom came here mainly to discuss compensation!" Smart and capable people should be sent to find out the details of the other party! Dear friends, do you have any candidates?"

At this time, the Minister of Rites stood up, clasped his hands and said:"Your Majesty, I think it is more appropriate to leave this matter to the new champion, Lin Siye!"

Lin Beifan, who was fishing, was confused.

Why did he get involved again?

"Why did Aiqing say this? The empress glanced at Lin Beifan and asked.

The Minister of Rites said loudly:"Your Majesty, Lin Siye and Prince Hamu are similar in age. They are both young people, so it is easier to get in touch with them!" Moreover, Lin Siye has always been quick-witted, and just now he exposed the tricks of Envoy Doluo! Wei Chen believes that during the reception, Lin Siye will be able to find out the details of the other party!"

Lin Beifan rolled his eyes. This old guy didn't hold anything back!

It's not a good job to receive foreign guests. You should treat them as ancestors, eat, drink and play with them, and don't offend them. It's right to serve them well, but not well. It's a diplomatic dispute.

It's simply thankless!

This kind of reception work should have been handed over to an experienced, mature and stable official.

But the other party gave this task to him, clearly wanting to see him make a fool of himself!

His intention Punishable!

The empress also saw through the intentions of the Minister of Rites.

However, she had some expectations for Lin Beifan and asked:"Lin Aiqing, what do you think? Lin

Beifan clasped his hands and said,"Your Majesty, I think this matter should be left to the Host and Guest Department of the Ministry of Rites!" Moreover, Wei Chen has just taken up the post of Director of the Imperial College and is busy with official duties. I really cannot help His Majesty. Please forgive me!"

The corners of the mouths of the more than a dozen ministers present twitched. They are busy with official duties... they are so busy!

They are busy teaching their sons all day long!

They are busy getting money from them!

Now it is even more disgusting, and they have also brought in the little Princess Yunying. Alright!

Gao Tianyao, the Minister of Civil Affairs, stood up and said loudly:"Wei Chen feels that it is most appropriate to leave this matter to Lin Siye!

The Minister of Hubu also stood up:"Wei Chen also thinks that it is most appropriate to leave this matter to Lin Siye!""

The Minister of Punishment also stood up:"I second the proposal!"

……

Hundreds of officials spoke out and strongly recommended it!

For no other reason than to make their children suffer less!

"Okay, let’s leave this matter to Lin Aiqing!"The empress said loudly.

Lin Beifan was helpless, he really couldn't run away this time!

These old bastards!

In this case, Lin Beifan simply let go!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and all of you for your love! However, since the matter is big and Wei Chen's salary is meager, he is afraid that he will not be well received, so Wei Chen wants to apply for a ministerial fee!"

"That makes sense! How much do you need? I will ask the Ministry of Revenue to give it to you! asked the empress

"I want 300,000 taels!"Lin Beifan bowed and bowed.

The whole audience was in a state of shock.

"300,000 taels?!"

"Do you need so many to receive a group of foreign guests?"

"Lin Siye, are you kidding me?"

……

The corners of the empress's mouth twitched.

This guy is here again!

Just want to be greedy!

He actually became greedy in front of all the officials and her!

I am getting bolder and bolder!

Lin Beifan felt very aggrieved:"My lords, you have misunderstood me! Let me receive the Doro envoy. I will definitely take them to eat, drink and play, and give them a home away from home, but all this requires money!""

"There is a post house where I live, so I won’t mention it!"

"But don’t be careless when it comes to food! Our best restaurant in Beijing costs an average of 50 taels per person! There are 20 people on their trip, and they need to eat three meals a day. Doesn’t that mean they need 3,000 taels a day? They need to stay for about 10 days, so food alone will cost 30,000 taels!"

"In addition, some singing and dancing performances must be arranged during the meal. Our best dance troupe in Beijing needs 3,000 taels for one performance, and 30,000 taels for 10 days!"

"If they still want to go to a brothel to find a girl, the cost will be even greater……"

……

Finally, Lin Beifan said confidently:"So, if the official dares to shout out 300,000 taels, it is all well-founded!"

"Moreover, this is also the first time that Xiaguan has received foreign guests. He has little experience, so prepare some extra money to be prepared! Please your Majesty and all of you adults, please understand and bear with us!"

Everyone's faces twitched again.

This guy really dares to speak!

The empress looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Finance with a blank face:"Qian Aiqing, what do you think? The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue said with a dark face:"

Your Majesty, the current financial situation is tight, the maximum is 200,000!""

"Add more! Lin Beifan said.

Shangshu's face turned even darker, and he waved his sleeves and said,"Only 200,000, no more!""

"good! Just 200,000! The empress said loudly:"Lin Aiqing, after you get this money, entertain the envoys of the Duoluo Kingdom well, and at the same time find out the truth. Don't let me live up to my expectations of you!""

"Yes, Your Majesty!"Lin Beifan clasped his hands.

Although he couldn't get 300,000, he was very happy to get 200,000! There is a three-day summer promotion, top up 100 and get 500 VIP coupons!
