Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 692;
Chapter 640; The two servants should be cut off

Just after Li Jing finished speaking, Fang Xuanling also stood up with a serious face, and took two steps forward nervously;
"Your Majesty, please think twice. Apart from farming, common people's households are doing their work for rich households in exchange for money. However, wealthy households have no shortage of servants to use them. Therefore, the common people in the world have no income other than farming. The fodder is exchanged for money. I dare to guess that the common people can't wait to mow the grass day and night, and this kind of work can be done by adults and children, and the result can be imagined.

Not to mention the 100 million forage money, it's just... just...! "

Fang Xuanling said three things in a row, and kept swallowing and smearing them, but he was still too embarrassed to say what was in his heart. He was afraid that it would be bad to scare the emperor too much!

Li Shimin didn't respond at all, but kept looking at Fang Xuanling with a smile;
"The house servant has something to say, but it's okay to say it. I'm not the kind of foolish emperor. I still understand the truth that honest words are harsh to the ear and good for deeds."

"Yes, I also spoke from the bottom of my heart. Please forgive me for exaggerating what I said."

"Forgive your innocence."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Before Fang Xuanling started to speak, he wiped the sweat on his forehead with his cuff, because he knew exactly how scary what he was about to say would be...

"This... this... What I want to say is that if you really want to exchange money for fodder, even if you prepare 300 million guan, you may spend it all. Really, if you dare to guarantee the head of the item, the people will die of exhaustion." There are no complaints or regrets in the field, and they are still smiling and exhausted."

"hiss……"

"hiss……"

"My mother!"

"three million…?…"

"Mother!"

"My God, 300 million coins..."

"My dear brother, shut up quickly!"

"Oh good good good good good!"

Not to mention that Fang Xuanling's voice was irritated and his lips were dry, all the civil and military ministers in the audience gasped when they heard the amount of 300 million fodder money!
Originally, Du Ruhui said that buying fodder would cost millions of guan, many people quickly lowered their heads, and when Fang Xuanling said that 300 million guan could be spent, the civil and military ministers who bowed their heads lowered their heads again After a few minutes, his head was almost buried in his crotch.

nonsense!The idea of ​​using 300 million silver coins and silk to exchange fodder with the people of the world is really crazier than a lunatic, and much more stupid than a fool!
Last year, Du Pushe, No. 1 of the Ministry of War, knelt down to the emperor in a hurry in order to get money for the replacement of armor and weapons for the son of the sixteen guards. What happened in the end?I heard that at that time, I didn't want a lot of money in my hands!
Let's talk about a few days ago, Li Dalang went to Ci'en Temple and freed up several million pennies. Who do you think asked for it in time?There is no yamen in the three provinces and six ministries that does not want money, and every family is scrambling to be the first, and the several ministers all have their sleeves rolled up, and they are on the verge of fighting in front of the emperor!
Are you kidding me?It takes as much as 300 million to change the forage? 300 million guan!Not three thousand guan, three hundred guan!Everyone, shut up now!
Li Shiji, who never liked talking too much, also swallowed a big mouthful of spit and stood up;

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I agree with Fang Fushe's statement that mowing grass can be exchanged for money, and the common people will wake up laughing from their dreams. How can we not go all out? Therefore, I dare to conclude that the 300 million guan can really be spent."

Several qualified and courageous ministers all came to support, several powerful!

Du Ruhui concluded in a deep voice;
"So I respectfully ask Your Majesty to think twice. Even if a minister contributes hundreds of thousands of coins to the court, we dare not act like this. Once the decree is promulgated and implemented, the people of the world will surely be moved by the news. The consequences will be too scary!"

After Du Ruhui finished speaking, he shook his head viciously. Li Shimin almost covered his mouth and laughed when he saw it. Life with money is so fucking comfortable!
"Ai Qing, don't worry, even if it really costs 300 million guan, we can still get it!"

When Du Ruhui heard the emperor's tone, he hurriedly answered;

"Your Majesty! I would like to report to Your Majesty, that those who belong to liquor cannot move even a large amount of money. Since His Majesty inherited the rule, he has ordered tax reductions and exemptions three times. The life of the people is much easier, but the loss of the court has also been greater. every dynasty in the past.

The imperial court is now relying on the baijiu money to make a living, Your Majesty, you must not pay attention to these money, my good Majesty! "

Fang Xuanling also frowned tightly;

"Your Majesty, what Du Pushe said is the root of defending the country, please accept it!"

This time even Changsun Wuji didn't come to follow suit. His Majesty's rhetoric must be someone who wants to use liquor, or else he is eyeing the taxes on the Silk Road. Ji didn't dare to delay for a moment, wanting to kill the emperor's dangerous idea in the bud;
"My minister seconded the proposal, and I would like to inform your Majesty, not to mention those involved in baijiu, we dare not tamper with even the taxes on the Silk Road. The income from these two transactions is the cornerstone of His Majesty's eternal life, Your Majesty."

Several talented people from both civil and military sides came to warn the emperor, and the remaining ministers all stood up and nodded;

"My minister agrees."

"The minister also agrees."

"The minister waits for a second opinion."

Seeing that more than 100 ministers were so nervous, Li Shimin stood up and explained;

"Don't worry, my loves, don't worry, my old brothers, everyone knows what kind of person I am, and I will never make any profit from these two transactions, and I won't touch a big money, my loves Take it easy though."

Hearing that the emperor had finally given up his mind, everyone breathed a sigh of relief!As long as the receipt of these two transactions is not used, and the burden on the people is not increased, the emperor can do whatever he wants.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

But... apart from these two items, there seems to be nothing else to think about, hahahaha!

Seeing everyone sitting down with peace of mind, Li Shimin smiled relaxedly;

"To be honest, I have made a lot of money this time. The courtiers who donated money have subsidized a lot of the court. I think that there will be no problem with the fodder support for two years, and there will be a lot left."

"Ok?"

"what?"

"Didn't Your Majesty hear you clearly?"

"Didn't the two servants make it very clear? More than 100 million silver can't bear it."

"Yes!"

"I expect to contribute money to buy officials on a whim to support fodder?"

Seeing a group of ministers whispering happily, Li Shimin is ready to make a big move;
"Oh, by the way, I didn't make it clear. This time, I have a minister who contributed more than 1000 million guan in silver and silk. Although there were some losses in the amount of big money and small money in previous dynasties, they can't lose too much. I feel that taking It should be more than enough to exchange some fodder for the people? Brothers, don’t you think so?”

"what?"

"My God!"

"Your Majesty is truly blessed!"

"Isn't that right, my old Cheng has long said that His Majesty is the Son of Heaven of the True Dragon. Take a look, it really came true. As long as Your Majesty encounters some difficulties, the heavens will immediately send down auspicious signs to resolve your Majesty's small difficulties. You literati Wufu is still talking too much, it is really noisy! My old Cheng was too lazy to listen to your chatter just now!"

"That's for sure. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. He is the Son of Heaven. God must bless you everywhere. Whoever dares to raise an argument, my old cow will slap him in the face!"

A large group of literati and military generals looked at the two idiots who stood up with eyes like looking at shit.

Damn, you two screamed louder than anyone else just now. I was afraid that the emperor would mess with the baijiu and the Silk Road tax, and I was afraid that your military expenditure and rations would be cut off because of this. Now when you hear that your majesty is rich , immediately changed into a dog face.

Several civil servants couldn't bear it any longer. They looked viciously in the direction of the two idiots, and then yelled at the ground a few times.

"Of course Your Majesty is the Son of Destiny, why do you still use you two sycophants to talk too much? Pooh!"

"Of course! Who said you're going to shamelessly argue with you? Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, a fool knows it, and you still use your Niu Jinda as a reminder? Bah!"

"Oh, you two are shameless. Look, Your Majesty, they dare to pooh me! This is actually poohing Your Majesty. My old Cheng suggests that Your Majesty should immediately chop off the heads of these two dogs, and then two vacancies will be created. The official position of the third grade is vacant, what do you think, Your Majesty?"

Li Shimin looked angrily at the two pig brains who had nothing to do to join in the fun, and who would hack and kill with their heads down when they had something to do;

"I think it's better to cut off the two servants, so that the positions of the two servants can be vacated, so that you two can fill them in!

It would be best to find another servant from another faction and cut it off, and ask Jingde, who was locked up in Dali Temple, to come out as a servant. With three of you as prime ministers to assist me in handling government affairs, I believe that I will be famous Spread the world!Fame and great career will last forever! "

"Ah? That...then what...forget it, Your Majesty, just spare the lives of these two dog heads, it's better not to kill anyone, my old Cheng really can't do the job of the prime minister, so forget it !"

"Your Majesty, I report to Your Majesty that it was Cheng Hanzi who said he was going to kill someone. This time, I have nothing to do with the old cow. Please learn from Your Majesty! Otherwise, I would have wronged my minister! This shrewd minister can't be wronged." He can speak the idiot-like words of an old man like Cheng!"

"Pooh!"

Cheng Yaojin, who was a little embarrassed by the emperor's choking just now, spat vigorously at Niu Jinda;
"Niu! You are a deserter who fled halfway. You should have your dog's head chopped off! Bah!"

The civil and military ministers in the hall shook their heads in front of the three idiots in Chang'an. Except for leading troops to fight, they couldn't listen to a word of these three idiots at other times!

All civil and military ministers were concerned about their own food and drink, no one came to see this side, Li Shimin waved his hands with a disgusted expression;

"Oh, that's all right, all right, you two can't say a few words, can't you keep your mouths shut with such good food and wine?"

"Oh, obey the order."

"It's Your Majesty, come here, you idiot, I, Old Cheng, will lower my status to have a drink with you!"

Cheng Yao Jinniu Jinda had just sat down to drink with An Sheng, when a dignified civil servant stood up impatiently, left his seat at the banquet, ran to the middle of the hall, and faced the emperor. Great gift;
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the expenditure of our Ministry of Industry is too high, and your Majesty ordered you to die, so our Ministry of Industry has to recruit a large number of common craftsmen. The loss of wages is really amazing. Those requirements that you gave before I have already spent seven to eighty-eight, and please give me another 100 million silver coins and silks from the Ministry of Industry for use, Your Majesty is holy! My Lord is holy!"

As soon as this person finished speaking, another little old man came out in a hurry;
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, the Criminal Department has never asked His Majesty for money to use, but this time I have to mention it. I can't take care of all the three provinces and six ministries. It is not my turn to the Criminal Department, Your Majesty?
The minister is not a coward in the Prince Qin's mansion, and he is also a respectable person in the court. Now the three provinces and six ministries have received different care, but the minister's punishment department is not welcome. This... oh... Your Majesty, please uphold justice for the old minister Ah, Your Majesty! "

"Your Majesty, our official department is also really short of money to use. Your Majesty, our official department currently has more than 2000 silver coins left in stock. Please take a look, Your Majesty. How pitiful is it?

My Ministry of Officials is an important department in charge of the inspection of officials in the world. Now my Ministry of Officials is going to be in trouble, and it is so poor...Your Majesty, do you really have the heart to ignore it?My good lord! "

As soon as a few talented people came out to ask for money, the others followed suit, and after a while, a bunch of high-ranking officials stood up, and the quarrel was unbelievable!
"Fang Fushe, you just asked for so much money a few days ago, and you agreed not to speak for many years, why are you here to join in the fun now?"

"That's right, house servant, you have to save some meat foam soup for us places?"

Fang Xuanling doesn't have the demeanor of a prime minister today, but is as thick-skinned as Cheng Yaojin;
"A few old brothers, just pretend that a certain family farted a while ago, and I don't want much this time. What can 50 yuan ruin your business?"

"Changsun Shangshu, you also want money? Your household department is in charge of the world's money and food. Why do you want money?"

"It's true that my household department is in charge of money and food, but it belongs to your majesty and the court. If a certain family uses it indiscriminately, let alone the laws of your majesty and the court, just say that you old brothers will not tear me apart." gone?

Besides, do you want to open your mouth?Don't you want a certain family to fight for a lot of money for a lot of officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs?It's so unreasonable! "

Looking at a large number of civil servants with their cuffs rolled up, some of the old men became louder and fiercer, showing signs of fighting, and this time was different from the past, some of the officials who had never had a small amount of money obviously moved for real Li Shimin hurriedly spoke out to dissuade him;

"Dear dears, dear dears, calm down first, old brothers, I will definitely give you an explanation this time, don't argue, don't argue!"

"According to the order."
