Chapter 95: We agreed to cooperate, but why did Your Majesty steal the show?(1/2)
The second day, Xianyang Palace, front hall.
"My ministers, please pay homage to your majesty. May your majesty live forever!"
"Sir, sir, please get up. All my dear friends, please get up."
Ying Zheng raised his hand and said, "Please take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After all the officials heard this, they all took their seats.
"My dear friends, do you have anything important to report today?"
After speaking, Ying Zheng glanced at Feng Zheng and secretly raised his eyes.
[I know, I know...Oh, it's so hard to make money...]
Feng Zheng had no choice but to step out and said with a serious face, "Your Majesty, I have something to report to you."
"Well, Marquis of Chang'an, what do you want to say?"
"Your Majesty."
Feng Zheng said in a serious tone, "We believe that the flaw in the imperial court mentioned by Prime Minister Li yesterday is extremely important and must be resolved as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will leave a big problem, and this will be a critical period for our survival!"
kindness?
What?
After hearing Feng Zheng's words, the dignitaries were immediately speechless.
Aren't there just a few mistakes?
How come we have reached a critical moment of survival?
Isn't this guy exaggerating too much?
"Your Majesty, what the Marquis of Chang'an said is truly baseless!"
On the side, a dignitary who did not deserve a name immediately stepped out of the queue after hearing this, and said with disapproval and disdain, "Wei Chen believes that mistakes are trivial and have nothing to do with life or death! What the Marquis of Chang'an said is an exaggeration, and there is no truth in it.
The truth is unbelievable!"
【Damn, you jumped out, right? Then it’s you!】
"Oh, my lord, what you said makes no sense, right?"
Feng Zheng glanced at the man, grinned, and said, "How can you say that this mistake is a trivial matter?"
"This, isn't this a trivial matter?"
"Of course not!"
Feng Zheng said with a serious face, "There are mistakes in this court, and they happen dozens of times every month. Every mistake in the government order will affect a group of people below.
A bunch of government decrees will affect a large number of people!
The people down here are affected, and their harvest will be reduced.
If the people's harvest is less, the court's taxes will be less.
If the government's tax revenue is reduced, its spending capacity will be reduced.
If the imperial court's expenditure is weak, the supply of the army will be reduced, and the welfare of the powerful will be reduced.
What's more, the princes, emperors, grandchildren, and His Majesty's supplies will also be affected, wouldn't they?
Even if His Majesty's supplies are not affected, won't His Majesty's mood be affected?
You, as a person, see that His Majesty is so worried about the court and the powerful, but you just talk about every trivial matter and look indifferent, what are your intentions?
You eat the emperor's salary and worry about the emperor. You eat the emperor's salary and ignore His Majesty's feelings. This is disloyal!
The imperial tax is reduced, the annual salary of the powerful is limited, and the rations of the parents at home are reduced. This is called unfilial!
It is unjust to sit back and watch other colleagues be affected!
It is unkind to see people all over the world in misery!"
"You, you, you..."
Upon hearing Feng Zheng's words, the man's face suddenly turned pale and he was in a panic.
"What are you?"
Feng Zheng said, pointing to the man, "You are unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, and unjust. How can you be a powerful person? You can just go home and raise pigs! Tell me, what are your intentions?"
What am I?
This hat is worn, it is simply inhumane!
"I, I, I... Your Majesty!"
The man quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I am very loyal to your Majesty! Your Majesty must not listen to the words of the Marquis of Chang'an family..."
"Cough... cough cough..."
After hearing what Feng Zheng said, Ying Zheng suddenly coughed to hide his smile.
This kid is no longer a human being when he gets into trouble!
When other ministers saw this, they immediately looked disdainful.
This kid is just talking nonsense, nonsense!
Such exaggeration of such a trivial matter is simply a slap in the face!
Are you saying that His Majesty is extremely worried?
Is this possible?
this……
"well……"
Unexpectedly, just when everyone was about to open their mouths to refute, Ying Zheng sighed deeply.
"There is some truth in what the Marquis of Chang'an said... I am indeed very worried about this matter..."
Ying Zheng sighed, "How can I sit idly by when I see such mistakes and omissions in government affairs? So, I had to work hard all night, reviewing and reviewing... cough cough... cough cough..."
After saying that, Ying Zheng coughed a few more times and said, "If this matter can be solved, it will be beneficial to me both physically and mentally!"
【Whole grass?】
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Feng Zheng was shocked at first.
[Didn’t we agree that you would cooperate? Why did you just steal the show? 】
kindness?
When all the officials saw this, they were also stunned.
No way?
Real or fake?
Is Your Majesty really so worried about this matter?
"So, Your Majesty!"
Feng Zheng said, "We ministers are here to relieve Your Majesty's worries.
Wei Chen suggested that in order to achieve the efficient operation of the imperial court, fifty powerful sons should be selected in Guanzhong and two hundred outstanding talents should be selected from various places in Guandong.
Once these talents enter Xianyang and become officials of the imperial court, the troubles of the imperial court may be solved!
Wei Chen's uncle, Prime Minister Right, didn't say the same thing yesterday? Wei Chen thinks it's very reasonable!"
Uh...huh?
What?
On the side, Feng Quji listened, and his face suddenly darkened.
Don't deliberately misinterpret it, that's not what I said!
Feng Quji looked at the gloomy-looking people, and immediately stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, I think this plan is not possible."
"Ah? Uncle?"
Feng Zheng looked "surprised" and pretended to be surprised, "Didn't you say yesterday that in order to close the loopholes and improve efficiency, we should recruit more people? We have all heard this."
What am I?
What I'm talking about is recruiting more powerful children from Lao Qin. I'm not talking about recruiting 200 talented people from Guandong at once like you, and only recruiting fifty powerful children.
Isn't this nonsense?
"Your Majesty, what I said yesterday was to recruit more powerful people in Guanzhong, so don't worry."
Feng Quji listened and said immediately.
"Yes, yes, your Majesty, if the imperial court needs manpower, it should be recruited from Lao Qin!"
