Chapter 32: The Unlucky Child

He Zhang was obviously stunned, and his face immediately became very ugly, obviously this problem was also very difficult for him.

There's no way, the answer is good, I can't do it myself, if I answer truthfully, the emperor will be angry again, I really don't know what to do.

He said with a bitter face: "Middle...... Zhongcheng, is the lower official also telling the truth? ”

Who knows, but was glared at angrily again by the first emperor Yingzheng: "It's hard to lie if you want to lie!" ”

Poor He Zhang, who was frightened again, shook his body, almost knelt down, and hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, Zhongcheng, if the Great Wall connects the Great Wall of Qin, Zhao, and Yan in the past with sufficient manpower, it is expected that it will take three years to complete, while the Qinling Tomb of Lishan will be completed in only half a year, and the Afang Palace will take five years." ”

Speaking of this, he cautiously glanced at Ying Zheng, then at Li Yang, and saw that he didn't seem to have said the wrong thing, so he breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, these data are all the original estimates of the time, of course, the current situation is obviously not like this, but he dare not say.

Li Yang nodded and smiled: "You also said that this is the time it will take for the projects to be completed under the condition of sufficient manpower, but if you look at the current situation, how long does General He Zhang expect the projects to be completed?" ”

Hearing this, He Zhang trembled.

Mom, Li Yang, do you really want to kill me?

He Zhang's face turned pale with fright, and he was terrified. According to the status quo, the status quo is that there is no one to levy, and the status quo is that even the existing servants are almost to the point of having no food to eat, or it will not be long before the existing servants are afraid that they will all starve to death, and they will complete a wool!

What the do you want me to talk about in such a situation?

Honestly, isn't this looking for death?

He Zhang came from the heart, what kind of sin is this, he is good, no one has offended, if you want to talk about your sustainable development strategy, then you can talk about it, why do you want to catch yourself such a person who will be a young man to toss.

He Zhang couldn't wait to beat his chest, did you know that this would kill me?

Glancing up at Li Yang, this guy was staring at himself, He Zhangxin was dead, so he had to ask again: "Is this ...... This time, are you still telling the truth? ”

"He Zhang!" This time, Ying Zheng is really angry, this guy is sick today! said angrily: "If you don't reply truthfully, you won't be spared!" ”

Thump......

He Zhang's feet were weak, and he knelt down directly, his heart was like ashes, and he felt like a little daughter-in-law who had been wronged, and said, "Your Majesty, your ...... I really don't dare to say it! ”

It's okay now, and I was forced to cry directly.

Poor He Zhang......

"Say!" Ying Zheng snorted coldly.

Li Yang saw He Zhang's pitiful and cheap appearance, and he also sympathized with him a little, and comforted: "Your Majesty asked you to say it, and you just replied truthfully, you don't need to be so nervous." ”

He Zhang has a feeling of wanting to die, isn't this all forced by you like this?

However, the emperor was furious, he didn't dare not say anything, so he had to calm down and tremble: "Back to Your Majesty, Feng Xiang also made clear the current situation of Great Qin before, if you look at the current situation, the servants are no longer levied, and the manpower of the various projects cannot be guaranteed to be sufficient. Not only that, but now it has reached the point of lack of food and clothing, the Great Wall barracks, the Lishan barracks, and the Afang Palace barracks, all the servants are starving. ”

Speaking of this, He Zhang glanced at Shi Ji Kai, who was standing on the other side, and then said: "The minister also asked Lord Ji Kai for food yesterday, but he didn't ask for half a chestnut, so if it goes on like this, not to mention that the projects of various ministries can be completed on schedule, it is...... Even the existing servants, I'm afraid I won't be able to starve to death for a long time. ”

After speaking, He Zhang lowered his head in panic, wiped a handful of cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and collapsed all over, as if he had exhausted all his strength with all his strength for what he said just now.

Syllable!

Zhisu Nei Shi Ji Kai was so frightened that his legs were weak, and he also knelt down, scolding He Zhang in his heart for being shameless, and he was going to drag him into the water when he was dying.

The internal history of the governance of millet is in charge of the storage of grains, gold and jade, which is equivalent to the treasury treasurer. To put it bluntly, the position of Zhili Neishi is equivalent to the Hubu Shangshu of the later imperial court. The subordinate officials have the Taicang Order and the Taicang Cheng, who are in charge of the storage of grain in the treasury; There are responsibilities such as leveling the order, leveling the order, and taking charge of the capital division and the prices of the counties.

Ji Kai also broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister is wronged." All the old and weak women in the world are busy farming, and there is nothing to collect at all, so that more than half of the taxes paid in various places this year have not arrived, and the ministers ...... The ministers really have no extra food, but now they have a little food, and they can only barely maintain the army's rations. Minister...... The minister is incompetent! ”

After saying this, Ji Kai glared at He Zhang hatefully, there was a great posture that if this was not the Qilin Palace, he would have to pounce on it and fight hard.

And He Zhang has an expression that I am also forced to be helpless, you can't complain about me.

Hearing what the two of them said, Ying Zheng couldn't sit still at this time, and he was shocked when he heard it, although he knew that Qin Guo's forced labor was too heavy, but he never dreamed that it would be so serious that there was not even enough food.

As the king of a country, he naturally understands what this means.

If the country has no food, the army does not obey orders, and the officials do not act, the country will perish.

Shocked in his heart, Ying Zheng finally realized that Daqin had reached a critical situation at this time, and he didn't know it before that......

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng was furious, slapped the desk suddenly, and shouted: "Great Qin has reached such a critical situation, before that, no one has reported it, and you want to watch the Qin State die!" What is the heart of waiting for peace! ”

Crash......

Suddenly, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were so frightened that they all knelt down at once, and shouted in unison: "The ministers are waiting for ten thousand deaths!" ”

Everyone has a feeling of wanting to die in their hearts, everyone is like eating, their faces are very ugly, and they are aggrieved, but they dare not speak out.

Can we be blamed for these things?

We have reminded you more than once, but Your Majesty the Emperor doesn't want to hear it at all.

Especially He Zhang and Ji Kai, that was even more aggrieved.

Wrong, great injustice.

If you give advice truthfully, saying that the conscription is too heavy and the fields in the world are uncultivated, isn't it tantamount to persuading the emperor to reduce the conscription, you must know that Feng Xiang and His Royal Highness Fusu don't know how many times they have said this advice, and in the end, they have not been scolded for a bloody end?

Even Feng Xiang and Fusu Gongzi are still like this, one of them will be a young mansion, and the other will govern the internal history of Li, where do they dare to say these words.

To put it mildly, if I hadn't been forced to be in a hurry today, I would have died if I didn't say it, and I wouldn't have dared to tell the truth.

However, now it seems that it really caused the emperor's anger, and He Zhang and Ji Kai were dead at this time.

At this time, Feng Qu risked death and said, "Go back to ...... Returning to Your Majesty, I have reported this matter many times, and advised Your Majesty to reduce taxes and reduce taxes, but it is just ...... It's just that Your Majesty didn't listen. ”

Ying Zheng was stunned, it seemed to be the case, but ...... Can I admit my mistake in this?

Ying Zheng slapped the case again and said angrily: "You only advised me to take a light conscription and reduce taxes, but I have said that Great Qin is so critical, and now if it weren't for Li Zhongcheng's repeated questioning, I see that even when Great Qin dies, he will not tell the truth!" ”

"............" Feng Quji was stupid.

Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to be such a person.

It's obviously your own fault, but you don't admit it, and if you don't admit it, you have to blame us......

Feng Quji was also drunk.

Ying Zheng saw that Feng Qujian had nothing to say, so he snorted with satisfaction, ignored him anymore, and instead pointed at He Zhang and Ji Kai, and said coldly: "Come on, pull these two deceitful people out and cut them down!" ”

"Whoa!" The forbidden army immediately received the order, went out of the ranks, and walked towards the two.

When He Zhang and Ji Kai heard this, their faces turned pale and they were directly frightened......

I didn't want to tell the truth in the first place, but Your Majesty, you forced the minister to speak, and if you didn't tell it, you would kill the minister, but now that you have spoken, you really want to kill the minister......

What kind of sin have you created!

It's over, today's unlucky rush is all over.

Poor He Zhang, thinking of this, cried directly with grief......

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also mourned in silence for these two people...... Three seconds! These two unlucky kids, hey......
