Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1289: So stupid! Stupid!

Emperor Yuan Zhen looked at Grand Master Qin who was kneeling in front of him, emotions surged in his eyes, and finally turned into a hint of evil.

He said: "Shen Zi'an, the Minister of Household Affairs, screams ghostly at the door of my Chengming Palace every day, which makes the people criticize me, thinking that I deliberately do not allocate funds to Jiangbei."

"But Qin Aiqing must already know what's going on with the treasury. If Yuan Xun doesn't pay for the drinks, I won't be able to pay for it."

"If you talk about loyalty and loyalty in front of me, you must be willing to share my worries, then..."

Qin Fengye was upset and interrupted him quickly: "I will go talk to the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs and ask him to stop such ridiculous behavior immediately!"

Emperor Yuan Zhen laughed loudly, but his smile slowly faded: "Qin Aiqing, is this your loyalty?"

Qin Fengye knew that he could not escape, so his attitude was more respectful: "Your Majesty, please make it clear."

Emperor Yuan Zhen stood up: "The prince is in Chengming Hall. I don't want to see him now. You can go on my behalf."

"Three days, I only give you three days. If you can't solve my troubles, I will either remove your wings that make the prince proud, or I will change you to a prince."

Qin Fengye didn't dare to speak, and carefully knelt on the ground: "I obey the order."

Seeing that Emperor Yuan Zhen was about to leave, Qin Fengye quickly stopped him: "Your Majesty."

Emperor Yuan Zhen paused: "Is there anything else?"

Qin Fengye quickly said: "Whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince made a mistake and how serious the mistake was, I believe that His Majesty will make his own judgment."

"Speaking of which, His Highness the Crown Prince has indeed not been as progressive as His Highness Ninth Prince recently. His Highness Ninth Prince pioneered the practice of businessmen becoming officials and won the support of businessmen, which has solved Jiangbei's urgent needs."

"His Royal Highness Qijiu is also able to know people well and do their job well. Even after Master Meng, who was immoral and immoral at the time, he was able to entrust him with important tasks regardless of past resentment, so that the floods in Jiangbei receded."

"I have the courage to express some selfish motives to His Majesty. No matter what His Majesty decides in the end, I would like to ask Your Majesty to give His Highness the Crown Prince a chance to learn more from His Majesty the Crown Prince and His Majesty the Ninth Prince."

After hearing this, Emperor Yuan Zhen did not express his position, waved his sleeves and left.

He still did not go to see Liu Yu, but went to Qingning Palace.

Seeing his gloomy face, the Queen Mother expressed concern: "Emperor, could it be that the matter was not resolved smoothly?"

Emperor Yuan Zhen gritted his teeth: "That little beast Liu Yu! How dare you do such a thing! I can't wait to skin him! Let him wake up and see who is calling the shots in this world!"

"But you, Queen Mother, stopped me from punishing that little beast! Now that I have followed your instructions, you should have no other instructions, right?"

It turns out that Emperor Yuan Zhen suddenly became smarter.

But the helmsman behind him is the Queen Mother.

Everything he did was planned by the Queen Mother.

As for why he was willing to listen to the Queen Mother, it was not because he felt that what she did was reasonable, but because he was really annoyed by Shen Zian.

He couldn't bear the disturbance, and when he heard that the Queen Mother said there was a way to solve the trouble caused by Shen Zian, he gritted his teeth and swallowed down his anger towards Liu Yu.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother said with a smile: "Emperor, speaking of it, what the Crown Prince did to Ling Yi and Li Meiren were just family matters."

"As the saying goes, a family scandal should not be made public. If the prince's stupidity spreads, it will make the world laugh. It will also make people think that you are not good at discipline."

"If you severely punish the prince for something like this again, or even entertain the thought of Yi Chu, it will arouse criticism from the subjects."

"Besides, the situation in Jiangbei is unstable now, and it is really not appropriate to cause any more trouble... Otherwise, internal and external troubles will make Dongling's situation even worse."

"On the contrary, you got the prince's fault, so that Qin Fengye and the others could find a way to solve the problem of disaster relief funds, so that Shen Zian's mouth could be silenced and the victims in Jiangbei could appreciate your kindness."

Emperor Yuan Zhen felt a little better after hearing this.

But he was also worried: "If Qin Fengye can't understand what I mean, and he and the prince can't come up with the money, what should we do?"

The Queen Mother was very sure: "He will come up with it. Over the years, the Emperor has relied more on him because he can guess the holy will and cater to the holy will." "He knows what you want, and he will definitely give it to you. , but you have to be careful and don’t ask him to do whatever it takes to get this money.”

Emperor Yuan Zhen looked ferocious: "I used to think that the prince was still a good boy, but now that he is getting older, his wolfish ambitions can no longer be hidden."

"The hydrographic map of unknown origin has many things to do with him; in order to make Ling Yi willing to get married, he even did not hesitate to do something to his own sister; he also did not look down on my beloved concubine."

"This little bastard! He really can't wait to replace me. It really makes me feel cold! If he doesn't behave himself, I will destroy him!"

The Queen Mother sighed softly: "The prince is related to the country. If the emperor wants Yi Chu, the prince must have lost his moral character and made an unforgivable mistake. Emperor, please prepare the edict with conclusive evidence, so that it will not cause turmoil in the court."

But the Empress Dowager's words were so serious that Emperor Yuan Zhen didn't listen at all.

The topic changed and Liu Yao was mentioned again: "Mother, not only is the prince restless, I look at Xiao Jiu and it seems that he is getting more and more excessive."

"Look at what he did in Jiangbei. I'm afraid he is crazy when he gives official positions to those profiteers! He dares to use Master Meng's son. He is really stupid!"

Hearing this, the Queen Mother was silent for a moment, and then spoke:
"Emperor, no matter how inappropriate the Ninth Prince's actions were, the victims were appeased and the flood receded. This is an indisputable fact."

"Speaking of which, the Ai family feels that Xiaojiu is actually creating a legend for you, the emperor, to be a wise man in the world."

"Throughout the past dynasties, which emperor has such a broad mind and farsightedness has allowed businessmen to get involved in officialdom."

"But you have appeared here, the emperor. Aren't you the emperor of the ages, the innovator who pioneered wise measures?"

Seeing that the emperor's face softened slightly, the Queen Mother continued to speak:
"If you can tolerate these businessmen and let them have small and humble official positions in the local area, then they will all be your ministers, ministers who will bring you money and solve problems for you."

"Their money will help you solve a lot of unnecessary troubles. The troubles they solve are the troubles you solve, the emperor. In the future, the history books will record your great achievements, the emperor."

"Furthermore, these businessmen have just had the opportunity to be exposed to official career and have no experience in official career. It will not be too difficult to control them."

"If it gets out of control, it's a good excuse to uproot them, even the wealth they have accumulated."

When Emperor Yuan Zhen heard this, Long Yan couldn't help but be delighted: "It seems that Xiaojiu has opened a lot of money houses for me."

There was a hint of sadness in the Queen Mother's eyes, but she said this: "That's exactly it."

Emperor Yuanzhen stroked his beard: "Then, I have to reward Xiaojiu well. As for Master Meng's son, if Xiaojiu didn't know that I am lenient, he would not dare to use it. In the final analysis, it is still my big heart. , can accommodate people like Meng Ziang."

The Queen Mother smiled slightly: "Now the emperor just waits for Qin Fengye to provide money for disaster relief."

Emperor Yuan Zhen laughed heartily, with a stern look in his eyes, as if he was the only one in control of everything in the world.

The Queen Mother was sad.

I didn't expect that Li Meiren's method was so effective. She just followed the emperor and said what he liked to hear, and it had such an effect.

I really don’t know whether I should say that Li Meiren knows how to be charming, or should I say that the emperor is stupid?

Stupid...

……

"Master, our plan to make Liu Yu unlucky ended up killing the Queen Mother halfway."

In the post house.

In front of Xiao Chongyuan, Ah Wu respectfully told what happened in the palace.

Xiao Chongyuan listened silently and couldn't help but raise his lips:
"Ginger is still old and hot. The Queen Mother's move not only saved Master Shen for the time being, but also caused Liu Yu and the others to bleed. Isn't this a bad result?"

Ah Wu nodded: "What the master said is absolutely true. If Master Shen gets the money, he won't have to make Liu Hong unhappy every day."

Xiao Chongyuan said casually: "Tell me what Qin Fengye and the prince talked about."
