864 Controversy, the Imperial Weighing Technique

The reaction of the six Shangshu was expected by Xiao Tianyao, although these six people were the emperor's people, but they were timid and fearful, left and right, and they thought they were loyal but were actually extremely selfish. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

They were the ones who went out of the city with the right minister to welcome him into the city, and they were the ones who secretly made him stumbling and causing trouble. Xiao Tianyao was very disdainful of such a person, regardless of the faces of the six people, Xiao Tianyao said disdainfully: "The corpse vegetarian meal is useless!" ā€

These six people think they are the emperor's people, and they cause trouble to him regardless of the overall situation of the country because of their position, although he is angry, he can accept it, after all, officialdom is like a battlefield, everyone has their own position, and it is normal to make trouble for the other party.

These six people shouldn't be, they shouldn't, they didn't react when he came out with the emperor's order. You must know that his move can be said to be a slap in the face of the emperor in public, as long as he is on the emperor's side, he should not ignore it, and he must come out to stop it if he dies.

But what did these six do?

It is true that they did not change their positions, but they also did nothing to uphold the dignity of their masters.

What is the use of keeping such people if they don't insist on their position when they should not be holding their position, and desperately insisting on holding their position when they shouldn't?

The six people were so frightened that they knelt down in unison and shouted tremblingly: "The prince forgives the sin." ā€

"Hmph......" Xiao Tianyao snorted disdainfully, closed his eyes and ignored them, and did not mean to send someone to help the right minister.

If you can't even do such a trivial thing, the right prime minister will not have to gain a foothold in the court, and the right family will not have to gain a foothold in Dongwen.

The biggest advantage of the famous family is his deep-rooted and flourishing power.

Xiao Tianyao was not in a hurry, he sat patiently on the main seat and closed his eyes to recuperate, completely ignoring the six Shangshu who were kneeling on the ground. King Xiao didn't call out, and the six Shangshu didn't dare to move, they knelt honestly one by one, and didn't even make a sound.

After another moment, there was a sound of footsteps of different severity outside the door, and the six Shangshu who were kneeling on the ground were uneasy when they heard the voice, and quietly looked up at Xiao Tianyao, feeling that Xiao Tianyao did not look at them, so he quietly turned his head to look back.

When they saw the right minister and Lin Xiang walking towards the council hall one after the other under the escort of the forbidden army, they couldn't tell what it was like in their hearts.

There is no need for King Xiao to come forward in person, only one right minister can bring out the people who the emperor ordered to detain, how terrible is King Xiao's power?

"The old minister visited the prince, and the prince Lao has been waiting for a long time." The right minister walked in first, folded his hands, and bent down to salute.

"What happened?" Xiao Tianyao waved his hand and signaled that the right minister would be exempted.

"Mrs. Lin Xiang is not feeling well, so the old minister took it upon himself to invite the imperial doctor and sent someone to send them back." The right minister could more or less guess the emperor's intention to detain Lin Xiang's family, and without waiting for Xiao Tianyao to speak, he did the thing well.

Lin Xiangwan stepped in from the right phase, at this time Lin Xiang was no longer elegant and calm before, he was nearly twenty years younger than the right phase, but at this moment he was standing beside the right phase, and he looked the same age as the right phase. It can be seen that the house arrest life during this period of time has hit him hard.

"Minister, meet the prince, the prince is a thousand years old." Lin Xiang came in and saluted respectfully, without the slightest arrogance in the past.

"Hmm." Xiao Tianyao nodded and said coldly: "Since you're here, let's start." ā€

Xiao Tianyao never mentioned the matter of getting the six Shangshu adults up. The right phase and the forest phase are both old foxes, so naturally they won't talk much. Under such circumstances, the six Shangshu did not dare to plead, so they had to continue to kneel.

"Regarding the peace talks in the Northern Calendar, do you have a draft?" Standing up, Xiao Tianyao accepted it when he saw it, and mentioned the main business.

After a slight hesitation, the right minister spoke: "Previously, the emperor verbally said that he would give 100,000 stone grain and 5,000 pieces of cotton cloth to the Northern Calendar. The Northern Calendar transferred three silver mines and one gold mine under the name of the royal family to our Dongwen, and signed a treaty of not violating our border for 20 years, and captured them as my Dongwen's slaves, but we had an accident before we could discuss with the Northern Calendar with the emperor. ā€

"Give the Northern Calendar food?" Xiao Tianyao chewed these five words lightly, and said with a cold face: "Do you also think this method is feasible?" "He has written the treaty of peace talks with the Northern Calendar, but he still has to listen to what others have to say.

"Back to the prince's words, we can't get 100,000 stone of grain, and after the war with the Northern Calendar, there is not much grain left in the national stockpile." Tobe Shangshu said stiffly.

It's not that he wants to come out, but he is in charge of grain, grass, and money, and when the peace agreement is settled, Dongwen can't get grain, grass and cotton cloth, it's his fault.

"The Northern Calendar is a lack of food and food to invade our border, if we don't give them enough food and grass, I'm afraid there will be a fight." The military department Shangshu opened his mouth with a worried face.

This is true, and it is not unprecedented. Dongwen won the Northern Calendar, everyone negotiated peace, Dongwen refused to give grain, grass, cloth, the Northern Calendar people had no choice, they should talk about the peace agreement, but they turned around and gathered people and horses, wantonly invaded Dongwen, and robbed the property of the people of Dongwen.

The Northern Calendar is located in a cold and barren land, there are very few places suitable for growing grain and grass in the country, and there are not many wild beasts in the mountains, forests, and beasts.

In the Northern Calendar, old people, women, and children starve to death every year, and many people take risks to survive. Even if there is no national organization, it can gather tens of thousands of men and horses to attack Dongwen or Nanban and Xiwu to grab food.

The land of Dongwen is fertile and the people are rich, which is the first of the people of the Northern Calendar.

However, although the land of the Northern Calendar is not suitable for planting, there are many iron ores, copper mines and even gold and silver veins in the territory.

"We have been at war with the Northern Calendar for decades, and whether we win or lose the battle, we must give the Northern Calendar grain and grass, and the Northern Calendar has also signed an agreement on not violating our Dongwen border again and again, but we have never fulfilled it." The Ministry of Industry Shangshu hesitated for a moment, but still opened his mouth.

"Yes, yes, the people of the Northern Calendar have always been untrustworthy, they are a group of white-eyed wolves who are not well raised, no matter how much grain and grass we give them, it is useless for us to feed them, feed them with fat, and finally in turn attack them, it is not cost-effective to give them grain and grass."

There is no real power in the hands of the Ministry of Rites, but at the moment the peace talks are led by them, it should be said that every time they negotiate with the Northern Calendar, they are led by them, every time they talk with the Northern Calendar, and the Eastern Calendar is also implemented as agreed, but the Northern Calendar has broken the contract again and again, and every time the Northern Calendar destroys the treaty, the emperor has to blame the people of the Ministry of Rites for being incompetent, and the people of the Ministry of Rites have the deepest resentment against the Northern Calendar.

"If you don't give you food and grass, do you want to continue fighting? The people of Beili are about to starve to death, and if they want to use troops again, they must fight with us. Our treasury has no food, and we cannot support the army to go to war again. The military department Shangshu was so angry that his beard straightened, and he roared angrily at the Ministry of Rites.

"Giving grain and grass can't solve the problem, the people of the Northern Calendar have enough grain and grass this year, what should I do next year? What to do the year after? Could it be that we Dongwen have been raising them all the time? The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household retorted unwillingly.

Xiao Tianyao didn't say a word, his fingers tapped on the table casually, he didn't seem to be listening carefully, but he listened to every word of everyone, and only after the six Shangshu were arguing about the same did he say coldly: "What everyone said makes sense, but it's useless to just say this, you have to come up with a solution?" ā€

What else will this group of people do besides arguing around?

Such a person is only used by his royal brother.

After all, it is only when you don't agree with each other that you can play balance......
