Daqin: Robbing Qin Shihuang at the beginning

Chapter 188

Early the next morning, Ying Zheng really summoned the ministers to the Xianyang Palace, and Ying Qi looked at everyone with a haughty expression.

Gan Luo noticed his expression, which was a little familiar. It seems that he also had this expression after he invented paper last time, right?
"My lord, what are you messing with?" Gan Luo approached and asked, "You tell me in advance, and I will give you a compliment later."

Ying Qi smiled and looked at Gan Luo, "It's just you chicken thief, you don't need to flatter me this time, my father already knows!"

There was a flash of light in Gan Luo's eyes, and then he backed away.

After waiting for a long time, under the voice of Zhao Gao's male duck, the officials walked in.

Ying Qi hadn't seen Zhao Gao for a long time, but this time he found that he was a bit haggard.

But he didn't think much about it. During this period of time, Qin Yin returned to his position, which might have put a lot of pressure on Zhao Gao.

At the beginning, Li Si and the others looked at Ying Qi for a long time, but did not speak for a long time. At this moment, that big grievance, Kun Wu, jumped out again.

"Your Majesty, I impeach Young Master Qi's subordinate Zhenggangou for improper taxation!"

Seeing Kun Wu's upright expression, Ying Qi smiled disdainfully.

"what happened again?"

"Salt is one of the pillars of the country's finances. How can it be handed over to foreign ministers? Of course, the son Qi invented the refined salt technology, coupled with His Majesty's acquiescence, the minister has nothing to say, but the 50.00% profit that should be handed over is far from enough "Kun Wu looked at Ying Qi coldly, this time he really caught the handle.

"If you said something else, I might argue a few more words, but I really have nothing to say about salt." Ying Qi spread his hands helplessly.

There was some joy in Kunwu's eyes, and when he was about to speak, Li Si pulled his sleeves, his eyes were full of puzzlement.

Li Si coughed dryly, "This is the main reason for going to court this time... Young Master Qi handed over the refined salt to the country."

"What?!" Kun Wu suddenly widened his eyes, looking at Ying Qi with disbelief.

"I didn't want to say it at first, but you insist on making me show off... Don't blame me for embarrassing you in public." Ying Qi said with some helplessness in his tone, "Dad, you saw it too, some people just stare at you. I won't let it go, even if I did something good."

Ying Qi looked at Kun Wu for a long time without saying a word, and Kun Wu met Ying Zheng's gaze, almost breaking out in a cold sweat.

"minister……"

"This Shaofu, you have been working for some years, it's time to retire and return home."

Kun Wu raised his head, his eyes full of fear.

"Your Majesty, this subject is only for a while..."

"Stop talking." Ying Zheng interrupted him directly, "It's not bad to go to a local and become a rich man."

Anger, fear, and unwillingness mixed together on Kunwu's face, and finally turned into a helpless sigh.

"Your Majesty, I want to report you."

"allow."

"Censor Zhongcheng invaded the fields of the people and forcibly robbed the women of the people."

Censor Zhongcheng's face was a little sullen, but he found that Gan Luo took out a piece of brocade from his sleeve and continued to mutter: "Your Majesty, in the 28th year, Mount Tai was enshrined in Zen, his family killed innocent people, and the people in the village were outraged..."

The censor Zhongcheng's complexion suddenly turned pale, looking at Gan Luo, he was a little unsteady.

"In the 28th year of Your Majesty, when Mount Tai was enshrined in Zen, Cen Le, the commander of the Shaofu, took advantage of the opportunity to mobilize grain and grass to embezzle hundreds of gold in military expenditures."

"..."

Gan Luo uttered the names and crimes of more than a dozen ministers in one breath. In an instant, many people in the court were all shaken. They didn't want to be the next person whose name was read.

But Gan Luo didn't continue to speak since then, but respectfully handed the brocade to Zhao Gao, and Zhao Gao took it to Ying Zheng.

Li Si on one side turned pale. He and Gan Luo looked at each other, but Gan Luo didn't look at him at all. He looked at Feng Quji, and Feng Quji had the same expression.

What did they realize.

"You guys, do you have anything to say?"

Yu Shi Zhongcheng opened his mouth, but didn't say anything, just knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

"Your Majesty, I will be fascinated by ghosts for a while!"

Seeing that no one was willing to argue, Ying Zheng threw the brocade silk down.

"Follow the law."

"promise!"

More than a dozen once prominent ministers were taken down in this way, and there were no humble officials among them.

Ying Zheng withdrew more than a dozen ministers in one go!
Then he looked at Li Si and the others, "Do you have anything to say?"

Li Si wiped the pain in his hands, his brain kept thinking, and he hesitated for a long time before he said: "The minister also reported..."

Some of the ministers looked at Li Si in disbelief, and Li Si kept sighing in his heart.

This is His Majesty's action. As for these people... let them die on their own!

Seeing that the dissidents were almost eliminated, Ying Qi walked out slowly.

Although he didn't know why, it was clear that he was not recognized by Ying Zheng last time he saw Ying Zheng, but Ying Zheng still wanted to know that the relationship between the court and China was contrary to him.

"Erchen invented a high-yield grain called upland rice, and the yield is more than three times that of corn."

At the beginning, nearly thirty ministers were pulled out, but the ministers still exclaimed when they heard the news.

"My lord... but the one you planted in Zhenggangou earlier?" A minister among the group of ministers asked tremblingly. He was Fengchang, who was old and had no intention of participating in the battle between the court and China. All he cared about was food.

"Yes, you know that too?"

"I happened to see it yesterday..."

Ying Qi looked at Feng Chang's eyes and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. He hoped that Feng Chang, who was in charge of food and taxation, would deny it.

But who knows, He Fengchang was frightened by the clean-up just now, and dared not refute Young Master Qi.

Anyone with a discerning eye in the court can see that the ministers who were purged just now are all the original Fusu Party.

After Feng Chang finished speaking, Ying Zheng and Ying Qi stared at him in unison, with strange expressions in their eyes, while Li Si and the others lowered their heads and pretended not to see it.

Feng Chang's face suddenly turned pale, "Chen... I am old, I hope to retire and return to my hometown..."

"allow."

Feng Chang left the court with a very lonely expression and a lonely figure.

Ying Zheng shifted his gaze to Ying Qi, who stepped out with a smile.

"Now that there are so many vacancies in the court, some of my ministers want to recommend..."

None of the ministers dared to speak at all. They watched their noses and noses carefully, and each of them chose to be wise and protect themselves.

Meng Yi seemed to be worried about something, and wanted to go out several times, but he still retreated.

"Nowadays, the increase in grain production should be implemented nationwide. The minister recommended Kou Zhun as Fengchang. He has been in Zhenggangou all year round and has a lot of experience in farming. He should be able to do this job well."

Lao Fengchang walked to the door, heard this, couldn't help but look back, and then resolutely left the palace.

"But, son, can this high-yield grain be suitable for different climates across the country?"

Ying Qi smiled, "Applicable, of course applicable, there are places that are not suitable, such as Jiangnan, where rice can be grown."
