She looked at Emperor Jing Kang, who was also looking at her with blazing eyes, waiting for her to respond; she turned her eyes from left to right, then to Tobe Jin Shangshu, and finally landed on her father-in-law, Wang Ji, trying to see something.

Unfortunately, she didn't see any clues.

All five pairs of eyes were focused on her.

Liang Xinming said loudly: "Your Majesty, my lords, Weichen is just a county order, and he is soft-spoken, so I am afraid it will be difficult to be competent for this matter." I don't know why the emperor handed over this project to Premier Wechen? This is beyond the authority of Wechen and is unreasonable. ”

Jing Kangdi said: "Aiqing is too humble. Aiqing can build a reservoir for Qianshan Lake, and I believe that Aiqing can also build this road. ——This project was also proposed by Aiqing first. I let Aiqing make the project to the prime minister, so that Aiqing has full discretion, so as not to interfere with all parties, make mistakes, and delay major events. ”

Liang Xinming was puzzled: "But Weichen is just a county order. ”

Zuo Xiang asked: "Liang County is suspected of having a low official position?"

Liang Xinming said: "The lower officials are indeed lowly officials. ”

Zuo Xiang asked: "Do you want to increase the ranks?"

Liang Xinming said: "Zuo Xiang laughed. No merit is not punished, the next official has only been appointed as the county commander for more than a year, and he has not yet made any achievements, how dare he invite merit to increase the official!"

Zuo Xiang said: "That's right. As long as the Liang County Order completes this project, the emperor will definitely reward him for his meritorious deeds, and there is no need to say anything about promotion. ”

Jing Kangdi also said: "Exactly." Although you are a county magistrate, I will issue a decree granting you the right to prime minister the project, and Aiqing only needs to act according to the order. ”

Liang Xinming said: "But ......"

Emperor Jing Kangdi asked, "I ask you, can you build roads?"

Liang Xinming said: "Yes." But the silver ......"

If she doesn't put the money in place, she won't let go.

Jin Shangshu said: "The household department fully supports!"

Su Xiang hurriedly asked: "Liang Xinming, are you sure to build this road?"

Liang Xinming said firmly: "Yes, but this budget has been expanded, far exceeding the amount of the project requested by the lower officials. "It's impossible to lose money.

Zuo Xiang said: "You recount!"

How much is given to how much?

Liang Xinming was deeply confused.

Wang Jian hurriedly asked: "You only said, are you doing road construction?"

Liang Xinming looked at the young emperor who was eagerly staring at him above, and then swept around the four aggressive old guys, and thought in his heart: Wang Ji and Su Xiang repeatedly asked her that she was feasible and sure about road construction, and seemed to remind her not to rashly agree; Zuo Xiang and Jin Shangshu asked her to make conditions in order to lure her to agree; as for Emperor Jing Kang, he sincerely hoped that she would show her skills and share her worries for the monarch.

Liang Xinming lowered his eyes and pondered quietly.

Originally, she only wanted to build roads in Qianxian County, but the reason why she made such a large budget and included Lu'an Mansion was to facilitate approval, let the Tang Governor also participate, and disperse her responsibilities. Now that the project has been expanded, the road has been extended, and she has been put in charge of the entire project.

Why is this the way it is?

It is impossible for the left end yang to be so kind.

It's not that she's incapable of doing it.

It's a mismatch between power and responsibility!

Just imagine, with a small county order, she can mobilize and command personnel and materials in all aspects? What should people do if they don't listen to her? What should I do if I have less money?

It's okay to put her in charge, she has requirements.

She keenly felt that this was an opportunity for her!

The study fell silent.

Emperor Jing Kangdi looked at Liang Xinming, who was contemplating and contemplating, and his eyes showed appreciation: This courtier who is as gentle as jade is not arrogant or impatient, not only assertive, but also very cautious. That's what reassures him.

Zuo Duanyang also secretly commented on Liang Xinming: Compared with Wang Heng's strength and publicity, Liang Xinming is gentle and calm, but he does not lose his self-confidence; Wang Heng is like a sharp sword, pointing directly at the key points of people, but Liang Xinming is as good as water, overcoming rigidity with softness and infiltrating silently. He couldn't help but pay more attention to this county order - will it be simple to kill people who can't die repeatedly?

After a long time, Liang Xinming raised his head and showed an elegant and calm smile to Jing Kangdi, Jing Kangdi also smiled unconsciously, and took the initiative to ask: "Aiqing has thought about it?"

Liang Xinming nodded, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, it's okay to ask Weichen to be in charge of the project, but Weichen has two requirements. ”

Emperor Jing Kang said in a deep voice: "Aiqing is here!"

Liang Xinming said: "First, the money and materials are fully allocated, and the second is the full control of personnel. ”

……

After this high-level meeting, Jing Kangdi left Liang Xinming, and the others retired.

Before leaving, Zuo Xiang threw Liang Xinming a subtle smile, showing the bearing of the prime minister who could support the boat in his belly; Wang Zhi's expression was indifferent, but Liang Xinming felt his dissatisfaction and worry; Su Xiche smiled warmly.

Liang Xinming maintained a flawless demeanor, and after they left, he raised his eyes to look at Emperor Jing Kang, relieved, and smiled. As soon as she was halfway through a smile, she suddenly wondered: Why was she not nervous about the emperor, but several ministers made her so vigilant?

When Emperor Jing Kangdi saw her like this, he was amused and happy at the same time as himself. Dealing with these courtiers with their own thoughts all day long, dealing with them, there can be no slack in the slightest, he is also annoyed and tired. Therefore, as soon as these people left, he also felt relaxed, and he didn't want to touch those pieces anymore, he just wanted to talk to Liang Xinming, ask her about her tenure, and learn about the people's situation and local government affairs in casual conversation. So he got up and left his seat, and smiled at Liang Xinming: "Let's go, I will take you to a place." ”

Liang Xinming hurriedly asked: "Where did the emperor take Weichen to?"

Jing Kangdi smiled: "You'll know when you get there." In the past, I used to eat wine and enjoy flowers, play chess and play the piano with Wang Qing's family. ”

Liang Xinming said: "Listen to Weichen and look forward to it." ”

The monarchs and ministers went out of the imperial study one after the other, and Emperor Jing Kang first instructed Shen Hai, his personal attendant: "Tell them that dinner will be served in the East Palace Xiangxuehai." ”

Shen Hai hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

He turned around and told the little eunuch to go to the imperial dining room to spread the word.

Emperor Jing Kang glanced at Liang Xinming again, motioned for her to follow, and he took the lead and turned right, Liang Xinming hurriedly followed, only half a step behind.

Emperor Jing Kangdi asked as he walked, "What else does Aiqing have to say?"

Liang Xinming thought about it, if the money could really be in place and the personnel would be at her disposal, there would really be nothing to say, but she was cautious and didn't want to talk too much, so she said: "As long as no one gets in the way, there should be no problem." ”

Emperor Jing Kang glanced at her sideways.

Liang Xinming respectfully waited for Chrysostom's words.

Emperor Jing Kang chuckled and said: "I am afraid that Aiqing is confident, but I am afraid that there will be a shortage of silver, or someone will make a hindrance from it, which is different from what the four elders think." ”

Liang Xinming hurriedly said: "What do the four elders think? Weichen is very confused, why did the emperor and several adults choose Weichen to be in charge of this project?"

Emperor Jing Kang said: "Didn't I say it before. ”

Liang Xinming said: "But...... Who proposed to make Weichen responsible first?" How could she really believe those official words.

Emperor Jing Kang said: "Lord Zuo Xiang." ”

Liang Xinming lost his voice and said, "Lord Zuo Xiang?"

She thought it was Wang Ji or Su Xiang.
