1124 Bear, the wrath of the emperor
Don't hit Xihu?
No!
Sihu must fight!
If you don't fight, where is the national prestige of Daqin? Where is the dignity of the emperor?
Moreover, even if they do not start a war on Xihu, they will not solve the problem of insufficient food. The soldiers and horses brought by Feng Yao have been returned to Daqin, unless Daqin doesn't want this group of people, otherwise Daqin must provide grain and grass to feed them.
Now what they have to consider is not the question of whether to attack Xihu or not, but to immediately raise food to ensure the grain and grass needed by the military.
The majestic gaze swept down the ministers kneeling below, Qin Shiyan did not tell them to get up, nor did he lose his temper at them, and said in a flat tone: "The top priority is to raise enough food and grass, all the adults say what is the best way?" ”
did not lose his temper, did not pursue responsibility, and did not dismiss any official, Qin Lian's tone was flat, as if he was talking about ordinary government affairs, but ......
None of the ministers kneeling below dared to put their hearts down, in their opinion, Qin Silent did not lose his temper, which was more terrible than losing his temper.
Sticking out the head is a knife, shrinking the head is also a knife, if something so big happens, it is impossible for the emperor not to punish them, they are even ready to be dismissed, or lose their lives, the result is ......
They waited for a long time, and they didn't wait for the emperor to deal with them, but asked how to solve this matter?
Although the matter must be dealt with, they will definitely be able to atonement for their crimes, but the emperor also has to give them a word of approval, so that they can understand what will happen to them if this matter is done well, and what will happen if it is not done well?
The emperor didn't say anything, just hanging like this, they couldn't feel at ease at all!
Especially Hubu Shangshu, he is like an ant on a hot pot at the moment, and he can't wait to take the initiative to ask Qin Shiyan to deal with him, even if he is executed, it is better than hanging like this.
Killing the head is not too much, death is not terrible, and the process of waiting for the verdict is even more terrible than death......
Hubu Shangshu still wanted to ask for punishment directly, but he looked up...... Seeing Qin Xiaoyan's deep and loveless eyes, Hubu Shangshu didn't have the courage to speak, so he could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart, try to stay sober, and answer Qin Xiaoyan's question.
Hubu Shangshu is in charge of the world's tax silver, tax grain, and knows the situation of Daqin very well, as soon as Qin asked silently, he said his own construction: "Collect grain from grain merchants!" ”
The imperial court is short of grain, and there is no grain in the granary, but it does not mean that they have no grain in Daqin, those grain merchants must have grain in their hands, and the best way to raise grain is to return the grain in the hands of grain merchants to the treasury and arrange it by the imperial court.
It's just that as soon as he came out, he was rejected by the head of the seal, "No, you must not collect grain from grain merchants." The flooding of the south of the Yangtze River has made the people uneasy, and if we go to collect grain at this moment, the government and the opposition will know that we have no grain in Daqin, and Xihu and Northern Qi will also know that we have no grain and grass. Once the news leaks, the grain agreement will raise the price of grain, and the people will definitely loot the grain, and then we may have civil strife, and the Northern Qi and Xihu will not let go of this opportunity. ”
"Feng Shoufu is right. Your Majesty, we are collecting grain at this time, although we have raised grain and grass, but it will cause civil strife, and the gains outweigh the losses. As soon as Feng Shoufu's words came out, the vast majority of officials agreed.
The fact that there is no grain and grass in the court must not be known to the people, not only can not let the people know, but also strive to create a scene where the court has enough grain and grass.
Just like what Hubu Shangshu did, it was obvious that the grain was insufficient, but no matter who came to ask for grain and grass, he gave it generously, and he gave it very happily, and he was not timid at all, which made people unable to think of the lack of grain and grass.
When Hubu Shangshu heard this, a stirring spirit calmed down instantly, and he kowtowed desperately to ask for guilt, "Your Majesty, minister...... Foolish, please forgive the emperor. ”
"Continue to discuss, I want a solution, not a plea." Qin Xiaoyan still didn't say anything about punishment, as if he didn't plan to punish everyone at all, which made the ministers confused, and they didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
However, no matter what they thought in their hearts, the emperor said that they wanted a way, and they had to find a way to get out even if they wanted to break their heads.
It's just that this method is not so easy to think of, and the ministers knelt on the ground for half an hour, discussed for half an hour, and did not come up with a good solution.
Qin Shiyan saw that these people were tired one by one, afraid that these people would fall ill, and no one would do anything for him, so he was very kind to let everyone get up.
However, Qin Xiaoyan did not let them out of the palace, but asked the eunuch to take people to the cabinet, and then eat and drink well, and let them continue to think about when they could come up with a way and when they could leave the palace.
That's right, Qin said that this is a semi-house arrest for them!
And when these people heard Qin Xiaoyan's words, they were surprised and delighted one by one: The emperor said that they could get out of the palace if they came up with a way, did he mean that as long as this matter was resolved, they would be fine?
Especially the head of the household, it was like being beaten with chicken blood for a moment, sweeping away the previous exhaustion, his eyes were frighteningly bright, he was spinning back and forth, and his mouth kept reading: "Grain, grain ......"
When everyone saw him like this, they shook their heads one by one, saying that he had a magic barrier, but unfortunately they could understand it when they thought about it. In the matter of grain and grass, the responsibility of the household department is the greatest, if this matter is not solved well, the household department will definitely have blood mold.
Think about it, think about it, come up with a way to redeem it!
A group of ministers, headed by Feng Shoufu, gathered in the cabinet to discuss possible and feasible solutions......
After Qin Shiyan sent the ministers away, he was about to get up and go to Gu Qiancheng, when he saw the eunuch come to report, and Feng Rujin asked to see him.
"Xuan." Qin Xiaoyan knew that when Feng Bijin entered the palace at this time, there must be something important.
Sure enough, as soon as Feng Rujin came in, he said: "Your Majesty, today's Taiyuan matter, the minister has found clues, please take a look." ”
Feng Rujin raised the fold in his hand, and the eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to take it and carefully presented it to Qin Xiaoyan.
"Get up." Qin Shiyan didn't embarrass Feng Nijin, and let Feng Bijin get up before looking at the excerpt.
Feng Rujin got up with a natural expression, not at all like others who couldn't let go in front of the emperor, which made the eunuchs on the side secretly envious.
He follows the emperor every day, and he can't be generous in front of the emperor. Sure enough, people are not the same.
The fold of Feng Bijin is not long, but the matter is clearly written, and Qin Xiaoyan looked at it all the way, and his face became more and more ugly......
"Slap ......" After Qin Xiaoyan finished reading, he slapped the fold on the table and said angrily: "What a big guts!" ”
"Plop ......" The eunuch beside Qin Shiyan was startled and knelt down straight, "The emperor is angry, the emperor is angry." ”
The anger of the Son of Heaven is unbearable for ordinary people, even if the anger is not directed at themselves, it can be seen that the emperor is angry, and he will automatically kneel. It's like the eunuch next to Qin Xiaoyan, but ......
Feng Bijin didn't kneel, he was still standing there, his expression calm, without a trace of nervousness and uneasiness.
"You're bold." Qin Xiaoyan swept towards Feng Nijin with cold eyes, that glance was full of majesty, as if countless heavy mountains were pressing, Feng Rujin's face was slightly pale, his brows were furrowed, and he seemed to be unable to bear it......
