Tyrant Reborn

Chapter 050

I put Chen Jianguang in the palace as a guard, and he accepted it quite quickly, but this decision seemed a bit abrupt to the third brother, so he came to the palace immediately after he recovered from his illness and asked me implicitly what I did The reason, of course, in his eyes, it doesn't make sense for me to put Nanjun's military adviser in the palace as a guard, both emotionally and rationally.

Hearing what the third brother said, I tilted my head and thought about the true and false love and said: "Third brother, actually I don't mean anything else, it's just that I didn't like that at the beginning, he looks very similar I hate a person very much, so I plan to deal with him, out of sight and out of mind, but Wen Jing said that my third brother knelt in the rain for an hour because of this person, and I suddenly felt that I was a bit disrespectful by doing so, So for the sake of the third brother, I spared his name. Although this is the case, I still feel very uncomfortable, so I left him in the palace to serve me for two days. Third brother, you will not disagree with such a trivial matter Bar?"

Guangran is Chen Jianguang's handwriting, which is good, but he is a bit too black-hearted, I sneered in my heart.

After hearing what I said, the third brother's expression froze and he was a little speechless, then he pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled helplessly: "Since the emperor has spoken, I will obey the order."

I listened and nodded.This is the advantage of being an emperor. Even if you open your mouth and the reason is absurd, others have to agree. No wonder so many people want to compete for this position... It's a pity that this position can only be mine.

Thinking of this, I raised the corners of my mouth and smiled, the third brother looked up at me, his expression slightly stunned, and then he lowered his eyelids to hide the expression in his pupils, making it hard to guess.

I glanced at him and lowered my eyes.

Then the third brother got up to leave, and I said: "Third brother, you are not in good health, let Zhang Tingyu go to treat you, if the root cause of the disease is found, it will be my fault."

The third elder brother heard this and said: "I thank the emperor for your kindness." I hummed, and the third elder brother saluted again before turning around respectfully and leaving.

After he left, I picked up the notes on the imperial case to correct them. When I saw Zhuo Lun’s notes about the impediment of water transportation, I frowned and felt a little unhappy. The weather has already entered autumn, and the autumn harvest has already passed. After all, the taxes and grain collected from various places should be transported to the capital at this time. Otherwise, after a few days, when winter enters, the river freezes, and the water transportation is not smooth, the grain will definitely not be transported to the capital. Aren't the common people going to starve to death?

Thinking of this, I put down the booklet. If you want smooth water transportation, you must repair the river, and repairing the river requires money. The money is all in the household department. Although Sun Zhong is in charge of the household department, he is a student of Xue Qing. Loyal to Xue Qing, and Xue Qing is in charge of the money of my own Ministry of Internal Affairs.

In this case, it may not be easy to pay for the repair of the river this time.

And that Xue Qing is not a fool, how can he not see that I am ignoring him and ignoring him by what I have done these days, he will easily give money to clean up the river, then there will be no bloody betrayal in the previous life.

Thinking of how Xue Qing flattered Chen Jianguang in his previous life, I snorted coldly. Now all these related people are within my sight, and everyone can tell who is a mouse and who is a cat.

The good show has just begun, we just have to wait and see.

Thinking about it this way, I looked at Zhuo Lun's book again, sighed and secretly said, no matter how difficult it is, this food must be transported to the capital. The failure in the previous life made me understand that the so-called is that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, If I starve all the people in the capital, and they have nothing to eat or wear, why would they follow me and protect me?

Therefore, Xue Qing must be forced to pay the money no matter what.

I was entangled with this matter all night and didn't come up with a clue, because my mind was heavy and I didn't want to disturb Zhuo Wenjing's rest, so I lived alone in Panlong Palace that night, and when I lay on the bed, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.Firstly, I was really worried about water transportation, and secondly, without Zhuo Wenjing's soft body, I always felt that the bed in Panlong Palace was too hard, and I couldn't sleep comfortably.

I don't know how long it took to be so dazed and staring. I finally closed my eyes and fell asleep slowly, but before I fell asleep for a long time, I heard the sound of bells and drums. I was stunned and suddenly opened my eyes. when facing.

Sighed and said to change clothes, the curtain was pulled away by the maid, several inner eunuchs helped me change clothes, Yuan Bao helped me hold the clothes, I rubbed my sore neck, and decided to go to Zhuo Wenjing's place to make up for it after morning. sleep.

Sitting on the dragon chair in the Golden Luan Hall, my neck is still sore, and I have been thinking about asking Zhuo Wenjing to rub it for me, but when I was in a daze, the civil and military officials below had nothing to say, and kept talking. There was silence.

I frowned. I learned from Yuan Bao in the past few days that these people were very dissatisfied with my sudden appointment of my third brother's counselor as a bodyguard in the palace. With the account from the Ministry of Households, they should have something to say, but Standing on the court, they didn't speak anymore, since they didn't speak, then I will speak, I thought.

I glanced at everyone again, I looked at them with my chin in my hand, then chuckled twice, and said, "Don't all the ministers have a book to play?"

After Zhuo Lun heard this, he slightly raised his head and glanced at me, then lowered his eyes so that people could not see the expression in his eyes clearly. Behind him, Xue Qing stood there expressionless, with a calm expression. A look of high morals and respect.

Although I looked at it coldly in my heart, I had to admit that Xue Qing stood there like this, no one could believe that he would have such vicious thoughts...

After thinking about it for a while, I frowned slightly and looked at the people below, then I said again: "Since there is no book to play, then I have something to say, I saw the brochure handed over by the household department, saying that this year's autumn harvest is good, The grain is already on the way to Beijing. This is very good, grain is the foundation of the country, and the granary in the capital should be full."

As soon as I finished speaking, Sun Zhong, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, stepped forward and said solemnly: "My emperor is wise, the taxes for this year's major grain provinces have been fully paid, and we just need to wait for the transportation to the capital."

When there are really rewards, whoever stands up is the quickest, thinking this in my heart, but I said happily on the face: "If that's the case, let's urge people to transport the grain to the capital as soon as possible."

Sun Zhong hurriedly responded, and then returned to his seat with a somewhat smug expression.

It's just that when he saw Zhuo Lun stepping forward to list, his expression was a little weird.After saluting, Zhuo Lun looked at me and said, "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, I'm afraid it will be difficult to transport the food to the capital on time this year."

After hearing what he said, I raised my eyebrows and said: "Why is this? Isn't all the food collected? Why can't it be transported to the capital?" After hearing what I said, Zhuo Lun looked a little cautious and said: "The emperor has something I don’t know, the food has been collected and is already on the way to the capital, but it stopped when passing through Youzhou.”

After hearing this, I frowned deeper and said, "Why didn't you leave?"

Zhuo Lun looked up at me and said silently: "Because the river from Youzhou to the capital is silted up, large ships cannot be used within hundreds of miles, so it is difficult to transport food to the capital on time."

After hearing this, I smiled and said, "In this case, we should clean up the river, dredge the water transportation, and let the grain reach the capital as soon as possible." At this moment, I said this sentence so naturally, and I suddenly returned to the situation ten years ago. Himself, a look of ignorance of the sufferings of the people.

After saying this, I said again: "Prime Minister, do you have a total amount of money with the Ministry of Industry to clean up the river?"

Zhuo Lun looked at me and said, "Wei Chen has already ordered people to make a total calculation. If the river is completely dredged, at least one million taels of silver will be needed."

"One million taels?" I frowned and said, "It's not too much to use for this. According to my order, the Ministry of Households will allocate funds to repair the river, so that the grain can be transported to the capital as soon as possible."

After giving the order, Sun Zhong stepped forward and said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, the household department doesn't have so much money this year."

I snorted coldly in my heart, but asked curiously on my face: "How much money is left in the household department?"

Sun Zhong looked at me, shook his body and said: "Report to the emperor, the household department, the household department has no money."

I was taken aback when I heard this, and then I was furious, the household department has no money?What does he think of me as a three-year-old?

I thought the transfer department would make things difficult for this matter, but I never expected that they would just tell me that I had no money.

You really don't take me seriously, damn it.If this majestic household doesn't have any money, then how can these officials get their salaries?

If the household department has no money, wouldn't I, the emperor, starve to death?

It's unreasonable to dare to say such a rebellious thing in front of me.

Thinking of this, I put away the expression on my face and sneered at Sun Zhong: "You said that the Ministry of Accounting has no money, so tell me, where did the Ministry of Accounting's taxes last year go?"

Sun Zhong hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is all accounted for..."

"Then let's talk about your account." I said, Sun Zhong's expression changed a little, and then he lowered his head...
