0696 Kansai Father, Guilty with the King
Hearing King Yong's words, the faces of everyone in the hall, whether they were officials or court envoys, all changed greatly. Among them, several officials who were still junior in the Taiwan Province couldn't help but look angrily at Li Qianli, including a group of imperial court envoys. In particular, the envoy of the court who asked King Yong to be sympathetic was even more taken care of, and several cold eyes were like knives, almost wanting to penetrate others.
Li Yuan stood up at the right time, clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "Since Your Highness has entered the west, his achievements have been demonstrated, and he can see it with all his eyes. Jin Ou has been complete, Li Min has been able to live in peace, and His Royal Highness has made great contributions! If there are still subtle sins to be detected, then who can be called perfect in the world? What can be called a complete achievement? The treasury of the Xingtai government is empty, and the ministers and other bureaucrats are guilty, how can they be harsh on His Highness alone, and devote themselves to losing the country! Surrender from the ministers, and implore him to cut his own food for the emperor's order. The expansion of the industry is in danger, the success is in the hardship, and the great evil of disobedience to life will never be caused by the small difficulty of money and food! ”
"The ministers implore you to cut the material by yourself, so as to protect the reputation of Taiwan!"
Under Li Yuan's statement, other officials in the hall also stood up one after another to express their positions, creating an atmosphere of harmony and overcoming difficulties together.
However, the statement of the members failed to make Li Tong happy, he raised his hand to pat the case, and then pointed at Li Yuan and said angrily: "The difficulties experienced by the Xingtai are not alone!" All the people who do everything are diligent and hardworking, burning the anointing and following the sundial, and the heart is moving. Eat and eat, and there is no vain. Xingtai received the emperor's order, and this is the only thing to be reported.
Li Shangshu has a high resume, and since the prefect is poor, he has a great plan and a good plan, how can he be righteously coerced and cut hundreds of officials! Wait for the food and take it according to the matter, so the chapter track is orderly, and the top and bottom are clear. If hundreds of officials are still eclipsed, what kind of order will politics say, and how can Li Minyan maintain health! Compassion is not as good as the two or three in front of him, how can benevolence be pushed to the world!
There is no further talk of this discussion, enjoy the rest of the house, keep the matter, if the food is not shared, if you don't invite it, you will take it! ”
Although we are poor, we are so poor that we have backbone. 996 has made me deeply ashamed, if you encounter difficulties, do not actively solve the problem, but have to deduct your arrears of wages, is this a special human thing? This is a son of a bitch!
This is not only said to the people in the hall, but also to the scholars who are now traveling in Xijing. The salary of our workers is absolutely guaranteed, and we are already preparing our resumes to be delivered, what are you waiting for?
His Royal Highness King Yong's eloquent words were loud, and Li Element was ashamed to accuse him. As for the court envoys present, seeing such a picture of harmony and mutual care, they couldn't help but feel emotional, and their feelings became complicated.
After reprimanding Li Yuan, Li Tong did not give everyone time to express their opinions, but just ordered Li Qianli to lead the court envoys back to the mansion to wait for news, and then ordered the meeting to end.
The meeting that took place in Xingtai, including a few speeches by King Yong in the meeting, spread through various channels in the next few days, and immediately aroused widespread discussion.
In the current Chang'an City, because of the Shangsi Festival Qujiang Assembly, a large number of times have gathered. Especially those electors who came to Chang'an from Shendu, they were originally officialdom reserves, and they were also very concerned about all kinds of current political information, once they heard such exciting news, how could they suppress the enthusiasm for discussion.
Therefore, in the next period of time, the public opinion in Chang'an City was as enthusiastic as cooking oil, and the streets and alleys, and all the public and private occasions where scholars gathered, were all discussing this matter.
There were many scholars who participated in the discussion, and their identities and positions were different, so the focus of their attention was naturally different. But this incident is really rich in connotation, and any single point is enough for people to grind their teeth.
In this lively discussion, there are also some things that have been extracted and discussed the most.
For example, since King Yong's westward advance, the imperial court has no assets to use in Shaanxi, and all the expenses spent in several major wars have been raised on the spot, is this true?
This issue involves Xingtai and the imperial court's military calculations, and many materials will never be released to the public. There is no detailed information as evidence, and it is natural that the public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable.
Some people think that this is impossible, even if not to mention the battle with the Turkic Khan Mosi in Hequ, just the previous battle with Tubo in Qinghai, in which the labor force is huge, is far from being able to bear by Shaanxi Province alone.
However, when this argument was raised, countless people voiced their opposition, and some officials of the original court said that the imperial court did not have goods to the west of Tongguan. There were also those businessmen who went to Long in person, and even took out their account books with their actual experience to prove under what embarrassing logistical conditions the Taiwan Province won the battle in Qinghai.
Of course, what concerns the times the most is King Yong's statement about the official's material. King Yong's speech can be said to be righteous and awe-inspiring, upright and decent, and has been highly praised among the scholars, not only because of the officials' own money bags, but also because of whether a monarch attaches importance to Shili.
The intellectuals of this era still have a more or less guaranteed economic foundation, even if Chen Ziang is from a humble family, he is a real tyrant.
Of course, all the electors may not all have a family background as rich as Chen Ziang, like Liu Youqiu, although he won the Jinshi in his early years, he still went to visit King Yong with two urns of pickles. But even if he has fallen into this situation, Liu Youqiu begged to meet and offered his strategy, which shows that he still hopes that his value can be affirmed.
Therefore, when King Yong's speech spread, the number of scholars who submitted their certificates to Xingtai surged, and in a very short period of time, it reached thousands of copies. For Xingtai, this is tantamount to a long drought and a rainy day, so various taxi options are immediately put on the agenda.
In this warm atmosphere, Li Tong also began to entrust the state official Feng Changsi and others to deal with the royal property to make up for last year's autumn tax.
Although his approach was intended to embarrass his fourth uncle, it was not intended to provoke the prestige of the imperial court.
The finances belong to the imperial court, and the expenditure is in the center, no matter how much he actually operates, but this iron law must not be destroyed by himself. Therefore, he pawned his private goods in the name of paying a fine.
However, public opinion is irrational and manipulated, and all kinds of accidents will inevitably occur. When some industries and utensils in the palace appeared in the two cities for sale, it immediately caused a rush and an exaggerated premium.
A wealthy businessman in Chang'an City bid for a pair of pen and inkstone utensils used by King Yong daily at a high price, but when the money and goods were handed over, he instructed his family to transport a huge amount of money and bow down to accept this set of stationery.
"Guanxi tribute endowment, all my fellow villagers and elders are diligent and cultivated, and they have harvested it every year, because of the emperor's order to collect and collect it, there is blood and sweat in the baht, and it should be applied to Kansai! His Royal Highness King Yong makes good use of the people's power and materials in Kansai to break the thief country and sow the countryside. If the imperial court takes this as a crime, then I, the Guanxi father, will be able to enjoy the benefits of the Taiwan Movement, and I will be guilty of the same crime as His Royal Highness! The fine is here, please accept it! ”
The rich businessman's speech immediately caused an uproar in the city, so the imitators of the sentiments are unknown. So much so that just a part of the trivial utensils used by the palace on a daily basis were disposed of, and in just half a day, the city had gathered more than 100,000 yuan!
Li Tong really dared to take the head to assure, this was really not a trust he asked. In doing so, he was already a bit of a self-punishment, and he really didn't have much idea of inciting public feelings. What's more, if he is doing this now, if he is the master of his own house in the future, what feudal ministers will also do it, will he panic?
Therefore, after learning that the market situation in the market was like this, Li Tong immediately ordered the market to be stopped, sealed the money in situ, and ordered all the merchants and people involved in the transaction to enter the market and withdraw their money on the same day. Lao Tzu doesn't want to be the teacher of future generations, so don't make trouble for me!
However, the order was issued, but there were very few people who entered the market to withdraw money, and hundreds of thousands of huge sums of money were piled up in the Municipal Supervision Office for several days, with almost no loss. Li Tong originally planned to use this batch of money to burn his fourth uncle, but he didn't expect that he would be burned by the blazing people's feelings first.
Therefore, he simply issued another ban, and all those who raised prices and disturbed the market in the two cities were severely punished, and directly put Feng Changsi, a state official in charge of the sale of the royal utensils, in front of the city supervision office. The refund will not be refunded for one day, and it will not be allowed to be taken off the flail for one day.
has been doing this step, and those who participated in the market before entered the market one after another to withdraw money, and finally dispersed the hot Li Tong's panicked money again. Some money really can't be taken, and if he takes it now, he may have to pay it back a thousand times when he meets a child or grandchild who is not angry.
The public sentiment here in the Municipal Supervision Bureau is agitated, and Li Tong really doesn't dare to provoke it anymore, so he can only put the matter in the Social Supervision Department, and no longer open it to the people, so as to make a fair sale and leave a contract as a posterior evidence.
But the wisdom of the people should not be underestimated, and since the enthusiasm has been aroused, it is always necessary to find a way to vent.
A few days after the turmoil between the two cities, suddenly more than a dozen incense cars drove into the city, that is, in front of the Municipal Supervision Office, and a number of bright and moving women walked down the car, all of whom were the leaders of Pingkangfang.
The woman who led the team said in a coquettish voice: "His Royal Highness King Yong's resignation is crowning the world, and the women in the Pingkangfang Pavilion are more stealing lyrics and singing for profit. The proceeds of the previous theft will be returned to the original owner today! ”
As soon as the woman's voice fell, many attendants carried the cage full of money and silk to the official hall of the Municipal Supervision Bureau, and soon a full pile gathered in the vestibule of the official office.
There are many spectators in the city who can watch this scene, and they immediately praise it endlessly, and some people come forward to join in, untie the money bag and throw it forward, and say loudly: "The bag is shy, only this more than 300 money, want to buy the song "Youth Xing" by His Royal Highness King Yongwang, I don't know which of you is willing to sing it?" ”
"Wuling Young Jin City East ......"
As soon as the person's voice fell, a servant led to a song, and while singing, he stepped forward lightly, bent down to pick up the money bag, threw it into the cage that was still being carried to the Municipal Supervision Office, and gestured to the buyer of the song.
