Hearing Tang Yin's question, the ministers present looked at each other, and no one spoke. After waiting for a long time, Qi Heng stepped out of the general and asked, "which army does the king want to send to besiege the holy pool?"
Tang Yin glanced at Qi Heng and half jokingly asked, "how about sending you the Ninth Army?"
Qi Heng shrunk his neck and didn't dare to answer. Let him go to battle in the sand and fight against the enemy. Even in the face of thousands of troops, he is not afraid at all. However, if he is asked to besiege the sacred pool, he has no bottom in his heart and is unwilling to do so.
Seeing this, Tang Yin laughed and said, "the siege of the Shenchi lake is not on your ninth army. I plan to send the plain army and the Tianying army to go there."
Standing on the court hall, Xiao MuQing and Ziying both stepped out of the line, shaking their voices and saying, "the end will not insult the king's mission!"
"Yes Tang Yin nodded his head with satisfaction. This is what the commander-in-chief should say!
Seeing the king's dissatisfaction with himself, Qi Heng quickly explained: "the last general is not afraid of the holy pool, but the Shenchi is mountainous and not suitable for the Ninth Army's platoon arrangement"
Tang Yin waved his hand, interrupted his words, raised his eyes to other people, and said, "if you have something to tell, leave the court if you have nothing to do!"
As soon as his words fell, Zhang Xiu quickly stepped out of the line and bowed his hand and said, "king, elder Huangfu and elder Jin seldom come to our country. I wonder if I could invite the two elders to visit Lingwu academy!"
Zhang Xiu is the dean of Lingwu college, the capital of Fengguo. If you can invite these two Lingwu experts to Lingwu college, even if you just give me some advice, you will benefit a lot from Lingwu college.
Of course, Tang Yin won't object to this, but he can't help Huangfu xiutai and Jin Xuan make a decision. He turned to look at them and asked with a smile, "what do you mean, two elders?"
Huangfu xiutai secretly said, "good! After the separation of the dynasty, elder Huangfu and I went to the Lingwu academy to have a long experience. "
Hearing this, Zhang Xiu was surprised, and gave a deep salute to Huangfu xiutai and Jin Xuan. He said in a quick voice, "thank you so much, two elders."
Huangfu xiutai shook his head helplessly, and at the same time glanced at Jin Xuan discontentedly.
Zhang xiuxin returned to his original position with satisfaction, and Zhang Zhe, the imperial historian, stepped out of the line again and said, "to the king, at present, the imperial court has built more than 100 Lingwu colleges, military academies and academies in Fengdi, which costs a lot of money and manpower. I wonder if the king will continue to build them?"
"Make it!" Tang Yin didn't even think about it. He immediately said, "of course, we should continue to make it! I have already said that Lingwu academy, military academy and academy must be popularized in the wind first. No matter how much money, manpower and resources are spent, we must continue to build them for me! " After a pause, he frowned and asked, "the silver that was transported back from andI was so large that it could not even afford to build a few colleges and academies?"
Zhang Zhe solemnly said: "recently, there have been disasters in various parts of China. The amount of money allocated for disaster relief alone has been countless. In addition, dozens of County cities and counties have sent letters to the imperial court asking for the expansion of the city walls, which requires the government to allocate silver. Therefore"
"so, you have to sue the king that the Treasury is empty again?" Tang Yin raised his eyebrows. Fengguo annexed Anguo, and all the money saved by Anguo fell into its own hands. So a large amount of silver would be gone once it was returned to Zhenjiang?
"Indeed, my Lord, the Treasury is not empty, but it is no longer rich." Zhang Zhe told the truth.
In fact, it's easy to understand that the amount of money that Anguo has accumulated is also relative to the area of Anguo. The silver of Anguo is nothing to put into the big windy country now. Every county and county asks for a little, and there is not much left.
"Well done, why do all the counties and counties have to be expanded? Is it true that all parts of our country are prosperous to that extent?"
When it comes to internal affairs, Tang Yin feels a headache when he thinks about the complicated, bureaucratic and ambiguous relations among them.
Zhang Zhe had no words, and the Shangguan Yuanji, who was in charge of the internal affairs, had no words. All the ministers hung their heads one by one, and no one spoke.
Tang Yin took a deep breath, rubbed his forehead and said in a deep voice: "the expansion of the city walls in various places can be postponed, but the construction of colleges and academies must not be stopped. Whether the city walls are expanded or not will not have a great impact. However, if the source of talents is lost, the country will be subjugated."
"King Shengming, I know." Zhang Zhe bowed his hand, then took a deep look at Shangguan Yuanji and retreated.
Local officials could not find Zhang Zhe's head for the expansion of the city walls. They had to submit a letter to the imperial court first, and then Zhang Zhe would allocate silver from the Treasury to the local government after the court approved it.
Only the right Prime Minister Shangguan Yuanji has this authority. The expansion of so many city walls was approved at once, and the amount of silver involved was huge, which could only be described by astronomical figures. Zhang Zhe was also very skeptical about whether there was a trading of power and money. Now that the king has spoken, he won't have to worry about it.
Cai GUI, standing in the back, peeps at Shangguan Yuanji with a gloomy face, and then looks at Zhang Zhe. He can't help shaking his head in secret. Zhang Zhe's ability to offend people is really unprecedented!He doesn't know whether Shangguan Yuanji has accepted bribes from local officials. However, he can understand Shangguan Yuanji's intention. The reason why Shangguan Yuanji approved the expansion of so many city walls at once is mainly to increase the political achievements of local officials. At present, the heads of counties and counties in Fengguo are all done by the king himself. If they can't make brilliant achievements, the damage will only be the king's face and face Prestige, Shangguan Yuanji's doing this is obviously to protect the king, and everyone is tacit. But Zhang Zhe seems not to see it. If he has to move this matter to the table, I'm afraid it's not just the right prime minister who offends him!
Seeing Zhang Zhe's retreat, Tang Yin asked again, "are you still busy? If you have nothing to do with it, leave the court! "
"I have nothing to tell you. I'll leave!" Qi Qi, the ministers present, bowed their hands and then withdrew from the court.
When Shangguan Yuanji was about to retire, Tang Yin raised his hand and stopped him: "Yuanji!"
"King!" Shangguan Yuanji hurried back and looked at Tang Yin.
Tang Yin shook his head at him and walked out through the side door of the hall. Shangguan Yuanji quickly followed up, walked behind Tang Yin, went out of the hall, and came to the small garden behind the hall. Tang Yin slowed down and asked Shangguan Yuanji to walk side by side and asked, "what's going on? Why do you want to expand so many cities all at once? Is it necessary? "
"It's necessary." Shangguan Yuanji answered simply.
"Say, what is necessary." Tang Yin asked with a frown.
"At present, the officials of all counties and counties in China are newly appointed officials, and they are selected by the king. Whether they can make political achievements or not is of great importance to the king's reputation. If they want to make decent political achievements in a place full of holes, it is absolutely impossible to do so in a year or two or three or four years. The most effective way is to build the city walls 。 As long as the city walls are prosperous, there will be political achievements. The king's reputation will be higher, and the people will support him more. My king, this vast territory of our country has been built up through a series of battles from the south to the north. The most missing thing is cohesion. Only when the king's prestige is established can the people around the country be convinced and will not rise to resist. " Shangguan Yuanji youyou said.
Oh! i see! After hearing this, Tang Yin suddenly realized that Shangguan Yuanji, who has always been steady, will suddenly approve the expansion of so many cities this time.
He shook his head and laughed and said, "it seems that Zhang Zhe misunderstood you. Looking at his appearance in the court, he seems to suspect that you have received many bribes from local officials in private."
Shangguan Yuanji chuckled indifferently and said: "it's human nature. After all, the authority of the minister is too big, which is easy to arouse suspicion. Besides, as a censor, Lord Zhang should be on guard against and suspect all the officials in the court. I think that Lord Zhang has done right and doubted right."
Looking at Shangguan Yuanji, Tang Yin is filled with mixed feelings. He is not a good monarch, and Shangguan Yuanji is also a right-hand man. As the head of civil servants, he is actually the target of public criticism. I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him day and night.
He patted Shangguan Yuanji on the shoulder and said, "when you go to the imperial palace with me, this imperial edict is not easy to write. You can also help the staff and staff!"
Shangguan Yuanji laughed, nodded and sighed: "it's really not easy to write." Even if it is the emperor's edict, it is not easy to make people believe in the crime of guangxuanling.
"One more thing, by the way." Tang Yin took Shangguan Yuanji into the pavilion. As soon as he sat down, he seemed to think of something. He said, "it's too cold here. Let's go and sit in the study."
He had a profound cultivation, and was not afraid of cold. What he was afraid of was that Shangguan Yuanji could not accept it.
Being able to detect the king's consideration for himself, Shangguan Yuanji was deeply moved and said to Tang Yin, "Your Majesty, I'm fine here"
"let's go!" Tang Yin takes Shangguan Yuanji and goes to the study.
After entering the study, they sat down. Tang Yin took out a dozen pieces of paper from his cuff, which was densely covered with words. He patted it with his hand, then handed it to Shangguan Yuanji and said, "this is the national policy I intend to implement. It hasn't been written yet. Yuanji, please have a look."
"Oh?" Shangguan Yuanji immediately became interested. He has been assisting Tang Yin for a long time. He knows that his king seldom makes national policies, and once formulated, it must be strange. For example, he insists on Promoting Colleges and academies.
After Shangguan Yuanji took it over, he looked at it attentively and immediately put it down again. He said with a dry smile, "I don't know much about it."
"You don't understand what I mean. In fact, it can be understood. After all"
"Er, no, king, Wei Chen can't understand your words. It's really too sloppy."
Tang Yin's serious writing is all crooked and crooked. After writing hard, it's just like wild grass and heavenly script. He can't read the three and four of Tang Yin's servants day and night. Shangguan Yuanji can't understand what he's writing. If he can identify each word, he must be tired and blind.
