Chapter 612: Share your worries for you!

[ps: Regarding the time of the Shang Dynasty, as mentioned in the previous article, Emperor Jing was sympathetic to hundreds of officials, and the time of the Shang Dynasty was delayed by an hour. The real time of the Shang Dynasty was very early in ancient times. 】

“You are so bold!”

The official named by him just now has been taken down by the guards pouring in from outside. Jingdi looked down and his face was extremely gloomy. “In a few years, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver…, I am not here. Raising officials is raising a group of worms!”

“The minister is guilty, please be kind to your majesty!”

“My Majesty, please!”

“Your Majesty, please!”

……

……

At this moment, no one had any illusions anymore. Nearly ten people knelt to the ground, crying and tearing.

There was a trace of fatigue on Jingdi’s face, and he waved his hand and said, “Cut off these people’s official positions and put them in Dali Temple first. The property will be checked and the proceeds will be returned to the national treasury!”

Soon, those people were taken away by the guards, and the courtiers below were silent, looking at the ground, not daring to raise their heads.

The highest official position of the person named by His Majesty has reached the fourth grade, and one point higher is the level of six books. In recent years, this is the first time that an official has been removed on such a large scale.

Looking at your Majesty’s appearance, this is a beginning.

Is your Majesty really determined to overthrow the whole court?

“Yesterday, the School of Mathematical Statistics sent the results of the account verification to the palace.” Jingdi turned around, walked upwards, and sat back in the dragon chair again, saying: “I have been looking through all the accounts all night… , I am very sad…”

Hearing your Majesty’s voice sank, many courtiers’ hearts sank.

According to the previous situation, any questionable accounts cannot be concealed from the students of the college. Doesn’t it mean that all the evidence of the corruption of the Beijing official is in the hands of your majesty?

Thinking of this, even those officials who have a clear conscience feel a little chill in their backs.

As for those who are ashamed, they are already a little unstable.

This time, is it really impossible to escape?

……

……

“Boy, your Majesty trusts you the most. This time, your Majesty really intends to kill those people at once?” General Xue pushed Li Yi and frowned.

Just now the old emperor spoke in such a loud voice and couldn’t fall asleep. Li Yi actually woke up. He opened his eyes and said, “What will your majesty do? How many generals will not be clear?”

General Ma waved his hand and said: “Your Majesty’s actions these days are very different from before, but we are a little bit confused. Don’t buy it, you kid, hurry up and say…”

Li Yi shook his head and said: “How could your majesty watch the court go into chaos, the generals rest assured.”

Old General Xue stared and asked: “Do you really know the inside story?”

“Shhh…” Li Yi put a finger up and whispered: “This time, whether you can seize the opportunity or not depends on the generals themselves…”

After a while, General Xue looked happy and asked: “Is this true?”

Li Yi asked back: “When did I deceive several generals?”

“Good boy…” General Xue patted him on the shoulder and rubbed his palms, his eyes brightened.

A faint fragrance floated from his side, and the princess stood beside him and asked: “Is there something good?”

In the early days, the only woman who could enter this hall was the princess. Li Yi thought for a while. He felt that the princess still had to take a place. Just as she was about to speak, another figure approached her.

……

……

“Feng Yuan, the left servant of the household department, came from a poor family and failed in the imperial examination. I hired him exceptionally. Over the past fifteen years, he has been pulled up with one hand. The household department is in charge of the money and food. Do you know how much he is greedy? , 150,000 taels, exactly 150,000 taels!”

“Do you know that for the military expenditure of fifty thousand taels, the Department of War Shangshu and the Department of Household Shangshu almost fought in front of me, it is not enough for Feng Yuan to be greedy for a year!”

“Chen Ying, the chief of Du supporter, you may not understand, I remember very clearly, Yuanhe eighth year Jinshi, Yuanhe ten years, I promoted him to Du supporter, 80,000 taels, 80,000 taels in three years… “

Jingdi’s voice gradually changed from grief and anger to deep pain. Some of the courtiers below were pale and trembling, and some showed shame on their faces.

“These people here are not without problems. You are not much better than the people I just won. You touch your conscience, do you still have a conscience?”

……

……

After a while, it seemed that I was tired. Jingdi sat back down in the dragon chair and said, “I’m done talking, it’s up to you.”

Most courtiers still bowed their heads, and the whole hall was silent.

At this time, whoever speaks first will meet your majesty’s anger first.

“The minister has something to say.”

In this silence, an unhurried voice came from behind a pillar.

Looking at the young people coming out from behind the pillar, surprise and incomprehension appeared on everyone’s faces.

Uncle Li Xian, it is actually Uncle Li Xian!

This time to check the accounts was done by the students of the School of Mathematical Sciences. As the dean of the School of Mathematical Sciences, and the strongest person in the pilgrimage, he could have stayed out of the matter, but stood up at this moment, in the end, What do you want?

Don’t he know that your Majesty is getting angry, and whoever is in the lead is unlucky?

Among the crowd, Li Mingze, the servant of the staff, raised his head with a worried look on his face, and Yan Bing, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, frowned slightly. Jing Zhaoyin and Dong Wenyun glanced in surprise, and in a few corners, there were smirking eyes. .

“Say.” Jingdi glanced down and said lightly.

“His Majesty.” Li Yi raised his head and said: “It has been half a month since the school opened. In order to create a good learning environment for the students, the minister wanted to dig an inner lake in the school. The budget is insufficient, so I want to apply for a grant from Your Majesty…”

Before the voice was over, many people in the hall were already stunned.

Are you talking about digging a lake?

Your Majesty is talking about corruption, what does it have to do with digging a lake?

Take ten thousand steps and say, what is the relationship between digging a lake and studying in academy?

Uncle Li County really thinks that with your majesty’s importance, he can be so presumptuous in the court?

Without waiting for any reaction from them, another figure came out. Old General Xue said in a rough voice, “The old minister is brave, I would like to ask your majesty to allocate one hundred thousand taels to purchase a batch of new weapons for the frontline soldiers…” /

Li Yi glanced at Old General Xue, his mouth was one hundred thousand taels, Jiang is still hot, and his heart is old…

Everyone hasn’t figured out why Old General Xue wanted to join in the excitement. There was another voice in the hall, and Her Royal Highness the princess stepped forward and said: “The children are ordered to establish a women’s college, and the funding is temporarily short of fifty thousand taels… “

Ning Wang Shizi, Dean of the Academy of Sciences Li Xuan took a few steps forward and said: “The Academy of Sciences is about to open, and I would like to apply to your Majesty for fifty thousand tael research funding…”

……

……

Insane, all insane.

This is the most intuitive feeling of courtiers.

It is precisely because the treasury is tight that there will be this check of accounts and your majesty’s thunder anger.

Aren’t you looking for death yourself when you talk about this kind of thing?

Li Xian Bo has committed a hysteria, and General Xue is always confused and can still understand, but what is the fun of His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness?

In the middle of the Dynasty, many people changed their faces immediately, and many of them showed schadenfreude.

The next moment, Jingdi stood up, and as everyone watched, he slowly said: “New mathematics is very important to our Jingguo. Soldiers kill the enemy in front, and weapons are indispensable. The preparation of the women’s college is also a benefit to women. The research conducted by the Academy of Sciences is beneficial to the country…, but the national treasury is tight and needs to spend money in the most important places…”

Jingdi thought for a while and said: “The treasury must not be used, so let me draw ten thousand taels from the inner mansion. As for how to allocate it, you can discuss it yourself.”

General Xue hurriedly said: “Your Majesty~IndoMTL.com~ Never, the inner government is responsible for the expenses in the palace, and you must not confuse it with these.”

Jingdi waved his hand and said, “It’s okay. From now on, the specifications of the banquet in the palace will be lowered a bit. I will save another province from other places. I can always save it.”

The courtiers all over the hall were stunned. His Majesty did not blame him at all, and took the topic smoothly?

Compared with these things, the accounts that caused the court to collapse seem to be more important, right?

Among the many courtiers, a middle-aged official suddenly came to his senses. The next moment, his breathing became a little short and his complexion became flushed.

He took a deep breath, took a big step forward, and said awe-inspiringly: “Your Majesty, the inner palace is responsible for the expenses in the palace. It has been carefully planned. The cost must not be reduced. As a minister, it is reasonable To share the worries for your majesty, the minister is willing to donate 20,000 taels for our soldiers and soldiers in Jingguo!

Many officials in the DPRK and China were taken aback for a while, and after looking at each other, they finally seemed to realize something, and immediately many of them became excited…
