Prime Minister take care

Chapter 4 Have You Heard

The prime minister regulates yin and yang at the top and coordinates all officials at the bottom.There are barbarians in the outer town, and the people are attached to it inside.

In one dynasty, the game between monarch power and prime minister power was always in full swing.Zhou emperors in the past dynasties were always afraid of the excessive authority of the prime minister, and in turn restricted the monarch's power, and made various restrictions on the power of the prime minister.

According to the legal system, the Kingdom of Shu was only a vassal state of the Zhou Dynasty, and although King Xia Yunhua of Shu and the current Emperor Zhou were compatriots, they were only vassals of the Emperor Zhou and had no right to set up three princes.

It's just that in today's world, etiquette has collapsed.The princes in various places often commit transgressions.Although Xia Yunhua's move was suspected of arrogance, it was not without classical principles.

However, what really worries the major families in Yizhou is that when Xia Yunhua, the king of Shu, gave Yang Xian the position of prime minister, he also gave him the right to open a mansion.

Opening a government office meant that Yang Xian could establish his own bureaucracy outside the Shu court.In the eyes of the major families in Yizhou, this was a sign that Shu King Xia Yunhua did not trust them.

In fact, they are indeed untrustworthy.

No matter what is going on outside, Yang Xian is very comfortable in his own house.These days, Yang Xian has been studying the skill table in the reflection of the starry sky.

He discovered that the skills on this skill table can be divided into five levels, from one star to five stars. Each route is different. The higher you go, the fewer the skills and the more powerful they are.

Different skill levels require different skill points.By training an SSS-level boss like Xia Gongnie, you can not only get experience bonuses, but also special purple skill points.

This purple skill point can break through the limitations of level and quantity and directly light up the skill icon in the reflection of the starry sky.As for five-star skills, only purple skill points can light up.

Even so, the purple skill points that can be obtained are relatively rare after all, and they are completely unable to meet Yang Xian's current requirements.Besides, it is completely uneconomical to use purple skill points to light up low-level skills.So what Yang Xian needs now is to get as many ordinary skill points as possible.

To get skill points, you have to get a lot of positive benefits.And how can we get a lot of positive benefits?

Yang Xian discovered these days, that is to do good deeds!A great thing that benefits the country and the people!
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Yongjiang Weir has been in disrepair for a long time and the river is overflowing, causing the people on both sides of the river to suffer. I would like to request the imperial court to allocate funds for reconstruction."

Xia Yunhua's illness has become more and more serious recently. In desperation, he ordered his legitimate daughter Xia Gongni to act in the government.

Xia Gongnie sat on the throne, her little face full of displeasure.Xia Gongni is not interested in these things at all.Yang Xian had just started playing, and she was about to agree, when Li Bi, who was engaged in Zhizhong, jumped out.

"Your Highness, what Prime Minister Yang said is an exaggeration. Yongjiang Weir was just repaired six years ago and is still in use. In addition, the recent years have been difficult and Yizhou's treasury is not full. Rebuilding Yongjiang Weir will cost a huge amount."

"Spend money?" Xia Gongnie blinked, seeming a little surprised and a little hurt. She didn't hear clearly what Li Bi said just now, and her focus was on the last money, "How much will it cost?"

"If it is a minor repair, it will cost tens of thousands taels anyway. If it is a major repair, it will cost even more!"

"Ten thousand taels!" Xia Gongnie exclaimed in a hoarse voice, like a plucked iron rooster.She clapped her fingers and murmured softly, "How much delicious food will this make me eat?"

Yang Xian rolled his eyes, and almost forgot that their family was stingy and tenacious.

"Your Highness, regarding water conservancy, we should do one repair every five years and one repair every ten years. Water conservancy is related to agricultural affairs and people's livelihood, so we should not neglect it."

At this time, Xia Gongnie seemed to have finally settled the score, and looked at Yang Xian, fearing that he would be angry, and said with a flattering smile: "Father, you just said that one repair should be done every five years, and one repair every ten years. Now it is six years old. Years have passed, wouldn’t it be better to let them wait another four years to cultivate together. Let’s just make do with it and use it first!”

"."

Yang Xian wanted to say something else, but Xia Gongnie quickly interrupted. The little girl's delicate face was full of poor acting skills.

"Hey! Why are you so sleepy! Come back from the court, come back from the court!"

Then, before Yang Xian could continue, she kicked off her legs and ran away quickly.

Harem.

Seemingly expecting that Yang Xian would come to investigate, Xia Gongnie prepared a table of meals early.

"Father Xiang, come quickly, you are tired after a day at court, come and eat!" Looking at Yang Xian from afar, Xia Gongni was full of hospitality, and pulled him to the lake. In the small pavilion on the side.

As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person, especially if there is such a cute little loli smiling and being cute with you, Yang Xian really can't find trouble with her again.

"Father, eat, don't be polite to Nie'er."

"Your Highness, Yong"

"Father Xiang, this is my favorite candied haws. How about ten taels of silver each? Usually I can't bear to eat more!"

Xia Gongnie acted coquettishly, and the subtext was: My dear, look, I’ve invited you to dinner, and I’ve even given you my favorite candied haws, so don’t ask me for money.

Yang Xian was also helpless. Do you think everyone is a foodie like you?Ten taels of silver each. Wait, ten taels?
Yang Xian glanced at Huang Changshi who was next to Xia Gongnier, and found that his body trembled indistinctly.He immediately understood that this guy must be bullying Xia Gongnir who is in a deep palace and can't get in touch with the market, so he played tricks and ignorant of the money.

sure!Young man, if you dare to ask for ten taels of candied haws for one or two cents, you will make a lot of money!

"Bold!"

With a loud shout, Yang Xian patted the table, and Xia Gongnie shrank visibly.Just as she looked at Yang Xian who suddenly went berserk with some fear, she found that Yang Xian looked past her towards Huang Changshi behind her.

And the other party had already knelt down in fear.

"Prime Minister, spare your life, I will never dare to do this again."

Just when Xia Gongnie was a little confused, Yang Xian said righteously: "You dare to only ask for ten taels of candied haws a piece of 20 taels. In order to please His Highness, you bully the people. What crime should you do?"

Ok?
Huang Changshi was a little confused. What does this person mean?Does he also want a piece of the pie?

"The little one knows his guilt, the little one knows his guilt! The little one never dares to do it again?"

"Father, don't be angry. It's not worth losing your temper just for a dozen taels of silver."

Xia Gongnie held Yang Xian's hand, her little face full of distress.

"The Yongjiangyan incident"

"Father, you also know that the treasury is not full recently, and I really can't afford that much money!"

When it came to the matter of money, the little girl immediately changed her face, full of grievances.

Yang Xian thought to himself, this girl was really born in the wrong world!If he were born in the world of Yang Xian's previous life, he would definitely be the best actor!

In fact, Yizhou is poor, but there is still money.One is the internal treasury of the Shu Palace, and the other is the private pocket of the aristocratic family.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the matter of Yongjiangyan does not require the use of His Highness's internal treasury."

"Ah! That's it!" Xia Gongnie breathed a sigh of relief immediately and said, "Now that I think about it, what my father-in-law said is true. Water conservancy is indeed a major matter related to people's livelihood and the country! Repair it, it must be repaired!"

The little girl thought for a while, then felt something was wrong, "Where does the money come from?"

"Has Your Highness ever heard of the technical way of making money, porcelain-making?"

More than ten miles away, Li Bi, who had just returned home and worked in Zhongzhong, shivered inexplicably.
