"Your Majesty clearly knows that the Mid-Autumn Festival and His Majesty's birthday are both times when the whole world celebrates and rejoices with the people. Although Your Majesty is considerate of the people and cannot bear the huge expenditure on the national treasury. However, several countries have sent envoys to congratulate them. Even if the national treasury is empty, we still want to show our greatness.

Wei Guowei."

At this time, Ji Yun appeared again and continued to report.

"What do you think, sir?"

"We agree with Ji Shaoqing's proposal."

Censor Zhongcheng first stood up and agreed to Ji Shaoqing's proposal.

"I'll second the proposal."

"I'll second the proposal."

Other ministers also expressed their opinions.

All the ministers in the palace expressed their support for Ji Yun's proposal, and even the censors who were most prone to criticizing also expressed their support.

This is not because the officials are flattering, but because the Wei royal family has always been thrifty and has won the support of the officials.

Yang Ke had been in power for nearly sixteen years, and he only held a grand celebration when he ascended the throne.

Since then, no expensive celebrations have been held, and the palace expenses have been reduced repeatedly. Even the Wanshou Festival in recent years was just a meal with a group of ministers in the imperial garden.

"Cheng Shangshu, how much national money is left?"

"Less than a million dollars."

"How much can the autumn tax bring in?"

"Your Majesty, the weather is going well this year and the harvest is excellent. The autumn tax will probably collect nearly 7 million yuan."

"In this way, the national treasury will allocate 200,000 guan, and the concubines will also allocate 100,000 guan."

"Yang Aiqing."

"I'm here."

Yang Min, the Minister of Honglu Temple, had white beard and hair. He was already in his sixties and his movements were a little slow. He stood up tremblingly and saluted.

"Can Honglu Temple be sure to arrange my birthday and Mid-Autumn Festival dinner within January?"

"Your Majesty, everyone at Honglu Temple will do their best to show the prestige of the Wei Kingdom."

"Okay, the three hundred thousand guan will be handed over to your beloved. I have ordered Honglu Temple to make arrangements to receive envoys from several countries."

"According to the decree."

"Retreat!"

Before Yang Minzhi could finish his words, Yang Ke immediately announced his resignation and left the Zichen Palace with a gloomy expression.

Officials at all levels quickly stood up, saluted, and respectfully sent the emperor off.
Chapter completed!
