Your Majesty, please think twice! [rebirth]

The next day, the morning court was finished as before, and when it was about to leave the court, the painting building stopped the adults.

"My lords, when the country is in trouble, everyone is responsible. You are all pillars of the court, and you must have a heart of benevolence and righteousness for the people." After Hua Lou finished speaking, he pretended to be sad, and even the courtiers echoed.It's just that the ministers are a little strange today. After all, the emperor suddenly changed his painting style, and no one is used to it.

"I have a piece of news to tell you all, please stop your grief." Hualou picked up yesterday's booklet, opened it, and grieved to the courtiers: "Yesterday when I was approving the memorial, I found that this booklet has It says that there was a flood in Liangcheng, and funds were needed. But everyone knows that the treasury is empty, and there is no way to get the money, so I can only make a bad plan. For the sake of the people, I donate 5000 taels of silver from the private treasury. Although the money is small , but more or less can save the lives of some people.”

The painting building has said so much, if these ministers don't know what's going on, they have lived for so many years in vain, and others say how the style of painting has changed today, which is simply asking them to pay for it!When the ministers were about to pretend to be ostriches, a voice followed.

"I also lost 5000 taels of silver." Lu Jingrui followed suit.Three generations of the Lu family were loyal and loyal to the emperor, but the family property was really not much.Over the years, he has been relying on the salary issued by the imperial court to maintain his life. There is not much at all, and he secretly saved the 5000 taels of silver.

The courtiers were itching their teeth in anger. They couldn't bear to beat others, and their rights were not as good as others. If they didn't say anything at this time, they would appear stingy. Starting from Prime Minister Gao, they donated one after another, but the highest one was only Prime Minister Gao who donated out of face. They paid 3000 taels of silver, and some small officials had even less, but it was calculated to be about 20 taels of silver.

"Master Lu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, now that you have the money, you, the Ministry of Industry, calculate how much it will cost to repair the dam." Hualou didn't want the money to disappear from his eyes, so he asked them to calculate it on the spot, anyway, he is now Not hungry yet. "Master Liu, Minister of the Household Department, calculate how much money you need to save the people of Liangcheng."

"Observe the order." Lord Lu and Lord Liu said in unison.

Mr. Lu is called Lu Jianbai. He is a strict person by nature. Because his personality is too rigid, he is not flattering in the court. Fake.

Time passed by little by little, and it was two hours after they had done their calculations.

"Go back to the emperor, I've done the calculation, this is the number calculated by the minister." Master Lu presented a booklet, and Laifu went down to take it into the hand of the painting building.

"Go back to the emperor, and the subject is fine." Lord Liu wiped the sweat from his brow, and also submitted the paper he had just written.

After reading the two excerpts, Hualou looked moody and angry, looked directly at Master Liu, and smiled meaningfully: "Master Liu, are you sure your calculation is accurate?"

Mr. Liu thumped in his heart, but he still squeezed out a smile: "Go back to the emperor, yes."

The flood in Liangcheng also happened in his previous life. At that time, he trusted Prime Minister Gao and entrusted him with the matter. At that time, the Ministry of Households quoted 10 taels.He doesn't know if they have embezzled or not, but it is definitely enough, but this time they actually gave him 15 taels of silver, do you think he is stupid?

"Master Hubu, you do the math." Hualou pointed to a young minister and asked him to do the math.

"I obey the order." Qiu Yuquan took the documents, calculated it again, and then calculated it in half the time Master Liu took, and submitted the paper.

After reading the notebook in his hand, Hualou raised his head and said to Master Liu, "Master Liu, you calculated 15 taels of silver, can you tell me where it was used?"

Sensing that something was wrong, Mr. Liu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, 10 taels will be used for food, 5 taels will be used to build temporary shelters for the victims of the disaster, and the diseases of the people after the disaster will also need to be treated."

"Qiu Yuquan, tell me." Hualou asked the household servant to speak again.

"I obey the decree." Qiu Yuquan got the order and talked in public: "Liangcheng is located in the south, the climate in the south is warm, and the grain output is also quite large. On average, a catty of rice is about 10 copper coins, which can be eaten by a person in a month. About ten catties of rice, and Liangcheng is regarded as the big city of Ningguo. There are about 1 people in the city, not counting those families with surplus food. If the relief is one month, the food needs about 2 taels of silver, plus vegetables, 2 Ten thousand taels of silver is enough. In addition to the temporary shelter built for the victims, there are only people outside Liangcheng, about 2 people, about 4 taels of silver is enough, and a total of [-] taels of silver is enough. Count on more."

"Master Liu, did you hear that?" The painting building threw Liu Zhiming's notebook at his feet, and asked sharply: "Master Liu, can you tell me what happened to the notebook that is short of so much money?"

"Your Majesty, please spare me!" Liu Zhiming didn't expect Qiu Yuquan to be so honest, and the difference between the two people's calculations was so great that he couldn't lie.

"I think you have done enough with your position. You dare to lie in front of everyone in front of the court. You are good enough." After speaking, he pointed to Qiu Yuquan and said, "Qiu Yuquan, from now on you will be appointed as the householder." Minister of the Ministry, put Liu Zhiming in prison, Prince Regent, send someone to investigate and see how much he has been greedy."

"Yes." The two accepted the order.Liu Zhiming sat slumped on the ground, and finally understood that he had come to an end. Although he had lied about it before, the previous emperor knew how to practice Tai Chi, but he did not expect the new emperor to be so vigorous and uncompromising. In addition, the regent stood behind him with a heavy soldier in his hand. He didn't even have a chance to stand up.The officials who were usually close to him didn't even dare to speak at the moment.

"Qiu Yuquan and Lu Jianbai received the order. From now on, the two of you will take a total of 5 taels of silver notes on the road, and the food and materials will be bought. The regent will send [-] elite soldiers to escort them. Anyone who obstructs official business along the way will be directly locked up. Open warehouses in the city to release grain." After Hualou finished speaking, the two directly accepted the order.

Lu Jingrui looked at Hualou, who was domineering for a while, with deep obsession in his eyes, and hurriedly restrained when he looked at Hualou.

Hualou's move shocked the entire court, and they could no longer lie to themselves. If the former emperor still had the time to play Tai Chi with them and didn't want to offend people, then the new emperor just went straight. It is also a good time to climb up.Qiu Yuquan has been serving as the servant of the household department for five years. He has outstanding abilities. But because Liu Zhiming relied on his seniority, he dominated the position and refused to let go. He took the credit for many things. Him, but now?Are you locked up in a prison?

Hualou looked at the courtiers below, and knew that if a country wanted to be well-governed, it had to clean up the moths above the court.You can do nothing, but you can't hold back the country. For a person who wants to fool him in public, pulling him down is the easiest thing to do.Standing behind him is Lu Jingrui, what is he afraid of?At best, it will be the same fate as in the previous life. He can't say that he is an eternal king, but he has to clean up the court before Xiao Wu grows up and can take over the seat, so that he can abdicate with confidence , he doesn't want to be bound by this seat, he wants to go around and see this great river and mountain.

"Retire." After Hualou shook his sleeves and turned to leave the hall, the officials below heaved a sigh of relief.

Looking at the tough new emperor, Prime Minister Gao always felt that something had changed, no, he had to talk to his daughter, what happened recently?

After lunch, Hua Lou went back to the dormitory to take a nap, and called Lai Fu to ask about it. When he found out that it was late, he got up to look for Lu Jingrui.

At this time, Lu Jingrui was still dealing with business in the imperial study room, and as soon as the painting building opened the door, he saw him handling official business before the case.Looking at this pile of memorials, I don't know where there are so many paintings, but he has been working for such a long time, so he made up his mind to take him out for a walk.

"Ah Rui, let's go, let's go to the Shang's study and the scholar's mansion?" Hualou held his arm, his eyes sparkling.

Lu Jingrui looked at the memorial, then at the painting building, and nodded decisively, "Okay."

"Great, let's go." Saying that Hualou pulled Lu Jingrui out.

The Shangshufang is in the palace, and it is a special place for the royal heirs to study. The previous emperor had no brothers, so now there is only one prince in the Shangshufang, plus the heirs of the courtiers, there are now a total of 30 people.

Hua Lou and Lu Jingrui took a look outside, and found that the children were very serious in their studies, and each of them was serious about studying with Gong Cheng. They were too cute.

"Let's just take a look, don't disturb them, let's go, go to the scholar's mansion." Lu Jingrui from Hualou finished speaking quietly, pulled him away, and walked towards the scholar's mansion in the outer imperial city.

The Hualou allocated the Bachelor's Office to Ji Zhengde, a cabinet bachelor, and asked him to teach these children. Ji Zhengde is a rigorous person, in his 50s this year, rich in knowledge, and he feels overqualified to teach them.

As soon as the two entered the scholar's mansion, they saw five rows of children standing neatly.Arranged by age, eight-year-olds and nine-year-olds line up in a row, ten-year-olds and 11-year-olds line up in a row, 12-year-olds and 13-year-olds line up in a row, 14-year-olds line up in a row, and 15-year-olds line up in a row There were ten people in a row, and when they saw Hualou and Lu Jingrui, they saluted in unison and were thoughtful.

"Let's get down." After the painting building was particularly stylish, he looked at the two rows of 45 and [-]-year-olds.

Hua Lou is 16 years old today, not much older than them. At this time, he is pretending to be an adult, with a stern face, and his appearance is indescribably cute, which makes the 20 people look at him curiously.

"You, you, you, you and you, come out." Hua Lou pointed out a few people who had not participated in the rebellion in the previous life, and then said to Ji Zhengde: "You must teach these people well, and in addition Pick a few people who are suitable for learning martial arts, send them to the regent, pick a few men, and take time to teach them riding and archery every day."

"Yes." Although he didn't understand the meaning of Hualou, Ji Zhengde had no objection, after all, in his eyes, it would be good for these children to learn more.

The faces of those who were named showed joy. Although they tried their best to control it, they were still young, so they showed it more or less. Those who were not named looked at these people with envy.

"Master Ji, if someone doesn't study hard, just kick him out of the scholar's residence. Those who have good conduct and study on weekdays can report to me separately." After Hualou finished speaking to Ji Zhengde, Lu Jingrui seemed to have something to say. Thinking, a little curious.

"Does the Regent have anything else to say?"

"How about this? I'll send Bei Chengyi directly to teach them for a period of time, and those who are talented in martial arts will gather together to teach them." Lu Jingrui thought this way would be more efficient. nod.

"That's it."
