Chapter 374: Audience

Although Zuodu Yushi Tianye was shocked by Jia Ke's ruthlessness, he thought that these people were simply rats in the granary of the imperial court, and they ate all the grain and grass stored by the imperial court. It's just more than innocent, and now it's time for them to do something for the court.

So Tian Ye immediately stood up and said to Jia Ke: "I am optimistic about Lord Jia's method, this time we must let the grain storage channel no matter what, and transport the grain to us to the capital." ”

Old Hanlin Mengming also stood up and said: "I also support this method. Over the years, the people in the grain storage road have really gone too far. Almost regarded the grain in the granary of the imperial court as their own. This time it's time to teach them a lesson. ”

And Lei Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of War, has no opinion on this, if the grain storage road cannot transport grain and grass on time, once a popular rebellion occurs in Shaanxi and the army is mobilized to suppress it, it will not be possible to do it with this grain and grass and silver.

Liu Yu, the secretary of the ministry, finally said, "I agree with this matter in principle, but after all, it is related to the lives of many people, let's report to the emperor first and let His Majesty make the final decision." ”

Jia Ke has no opinion on the time, if the emperor can stand up and carry the black cauldron once, wouldn't it be better for himself? No matter what the emperor does this time, it will not hurt him Jia Ke.

If the emperor agrees to this method, I am afraid that he will lose the reputation of a copying emperor like Emperor Yongzheng back then. If the emperor did not agree to this method, he would either have to withdraw money from the inner treasury, or he would have to ignore the matter, and in the end the situation would become bigger and bigger, and finally he could not clean it up.

Either case, it would be a huge blow to the emperor's prestige.

After Jia Ke thought of this, he immediately took out a blank document, brushed it up, and rewrote a notebook.

The general idea is that they are afraid that there will be a drought in Shaanxi, so that there will be a civil uprising, so they will mobilize grain and grass to the capital from various grain storage roads, and be ready to provide disaster relief at any time in case of accidents.

After Jia Ke finished writing, he said to Liu Yu: "Since Lord Liu thinks so, then let's sign this document first, and then go to Dongnuan Pavilion together to report to the emperor." ”

Liu Yu saw that Jia Ke had agreed with him, and he did not make his own decisions and directly ordered. There was nothing to say, he came to Jia Ke, took the document and signed his name on it.

Then Lei Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of War, also came over to sign his name, and by this time the five ministers of military aircraft had agreed to Jia Ke's method.

Jia Ke saw that they had all signed, and then said, "The matter of the grain storage road has been decided. But the affairs of the household department can't just be counted like this, that is, there is no need to buy grain for the time being, but those silver taels must also be prepared by the household department in advance in case of accidents. ”

After saying this, Jia Ke took out the document he had just written like the household department urging silver, "If you agree, sign it, if you don't agree, I won't force it." ”

Old Meng Mingzi didn't say anything, so he came over and signed his name.

Zuodu Yushi Tian Ye thought about it and signed his name. During this period of time, Tian Ye has obviously become a little estranged from the emperor. He was also impartial in his work at the Military Aircraft Department, and he was not particularly biased towards the emperor, so everyone didn't think it was strange to sign today.

In the end, Lei Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of War, didn't say anything, he came over directly to sign, although he was the emperor's person, but he knew that if the victims were not pacified this time, it would not only be a matter of civil unrest. Even dynasties can fall.

Liu Yu saw that several other people had signed, and if he didn't sign, he was afraid that he would be responsible for something in the future. So he stepped forward and signed his name.

Jia Ke saw that everyone had signed their names, and then summoned the little eunuch outside the door, and then instructed the little eunuch: "Send this document to the household department immediately, let them do it immediately, and 800,000 taels of silver must be drawn within a month." ”

After listening to this, the little eunuch hurriedly took the paperwork and bowed out. After coming outside, he quickly sent people to rush to the house.

Liu Yu saw that the matter of urging the silver of the household department had been completed, and then it was time to store grain, this is a big deal, and if it is not good this time, it will be a lot of people, so he arched his hand to Jia Ke and said: "Master foreman, everyone has signed, the matter of grain storage is a big deal, now we should go to Dongnuan Pavilion to ask for the emperor's opinion." ”

Jia Ke didn't regret it, he picked up the document and put it in a bag next to him. Then he said to everyone, "Since everyone has signed their names, let's go together." When the time comes, if the emperor asks, everyone can also express their opinions. ”

After Jia Ke said this, he immediately walked outside the Military Aircraft Department, and the other four military aircraft ministers followed him closely and walked out of the Military Aircraft Department together.

Jia Ke took these people to the outside of the Dongnuan Pavilion and met the eunuchs on duty in Dongnuan, Jia Ke was not rude to these eunuchs because of his current high position, after all, Jia Ke was born in modern times with some civilian thoughts.

Jia Ke arched his hand to the eunuch and said: "This father-in-law, please go in and report to the emperor for a few of us, and say that our minister of military aircraft has something important to report to the emperor, and ask the emperor to see him." ”

When the eunuch saw Jia Ke bowing his hand to him, he hurriedly replied, "Lord Jia, don't be so polite. The slave is just a lowly person, how can he afford such a big gift from you, don't you let the slave lose his life? ”

After the eunuch finished politely, he said: "Please wait here for Lord Jia and all the adults, and the slave will go in and report to the Lord of Long Life." ”

After saying this, the eunuch walked like in the East Warm Pavilion. He poked his head outside the Dongnuan Pavilion and looked inside, the emperor was sitting on the throne and concentrating on reviewing the folds, and the little eunuch didn't dare to go up to report it, so he glanced at Xia Shouzhong, who was next to the emperor.

Xia Shouzhong has been standing beside the emperor, waiting for the emperor's orders at any time. Suddenly, the little eunuch outside the door winked at him.

So Xia Shouzhong secretly glanced at the emperor, and saw that the emperor was staring at a piece of music, and he took a pen and circled it a few times. Didn't notice him at all. Only then did he dare to gently descend the imperial stairs and follow the wall to the winter warmth.

"You kid is not good to watch outside, what's the matter here?" Xia Shouzhong is now completely different from before, he has now been appointed by the emperor as the eunuch of the Six Palaces, so he has also begun to accept his son to work for him. The eunuch in front of him was the godson he watched not long ago.

"Godfather, son, I do have something to report to my godfather, where do I dare to disturb my godfather indiscriminately."

"What do you have to say, didn't you see that I was still serving the emperor inside?"

"Qiyu godfather, outside Lord Jia Kejia asked to see the emperor with all the adults from the Military Aircraft Department. I don't know what Godfather means? ”

Xia Shouzhong was also a little confused when he heard him say this. After thinking about it for a while, I decided to give them a report. After all, the five ministers of military aircraft came together, I am afraid that there is a big event, if he is delayed, although the emperor pampers himself, he will not spare him lightly.

"You wait here for a while, let's go in and ask the emperor what he means."

So Xia Shouzhong turned around and entered the Dongnuan Pavilion, and personally went up the imperial steps again and came to the emperor's side.

"Long live the master, the slave has something to report to you." Xia Shouzhong said softly beside the emperor.

The Emperor put down the fold in his hand and looked up at him. "What's the matter?" he asked. It can't be your relatives who are fighting with you again, right? ”

It turned out that since Xia Shouzhong served as the eunuch of the Six Palaces, those relatives who had little contact with him had rushed over to talk to him. I hope he can be promoted, or even become an official outside.

Xia Shouzhong never hid these things from the emperor, because he knew that everything he had was given by the emperor. And the emperor is a person who misses the old feelings, as long as he doesn't hide it from him, the emperor will turn a blind eye to many things. But if he deceives him or hides these things from him, the emperor will definitely turn his face and be ruthless.

Therefore, Xia Shouzhong explained these things to the emperor in every detail. And the emperor really turned a blind eye to these things just like Xia Shouzhong thought, and sometimes even pulled Xia Shouzhong to say it again when he was bored, so as to relieve his boredom.

"Hooray, where do you want to go, can the slave always trouble your old man with these little things? It was Lord Jia Kejia who brought a military plane to a few adults to ask to see him outside the Dongnuan Pavilion just now, and the little eunuch outside reported to the minions, so the minions came over to talk to the emperor. Xia Shouzhong hurriedly reported what had just happened to the emperor.

The emperor is worried about the three major merchant gangs these days, and now the five ministers of military aircraft have come to ask for a meeting together, and it is not a trivial matter. These things went on one after another, and the emperor now felt a great headache.

The emperor put down the pen in his hand and rubbed his hands on his head. He really didn't want to hear any bad news now, but reason told him, what kind of bad news might the five military ministers bring this time? Otherwise, the five of them would not have put down the affairs of the military aircraft department and came to ask for a meeting together.

The emperor sighed, and finally said helplessly: "Then let them in, it seems that I will not be able to come down for a moment." ”

Xia Shouzhong saw that the emperor agreed, so he hurriedly went out and went to greet the five military ministers outside the Dongnuan Pavilion.

And the emperor sat on the throne, rubbing his head, and at the same time thinking about how envious he was when he looked at this throne before he ascended the throne and became the emperor.

When you really reach this throne, you will know how heavy the burden is? Any decision you make can affect the livelihood of 10,000 Dawn people. This made the emperor cautious about every decision, walking on thin ice.

Coupled with Jia Ke's growing power, since he became the emperor, he has not slept soundly for a day, and he wakes up in nightmares almost every day.

What's the point of coming to this emperor now? At the beginning, he performed with all his strength in front of the Emperor Taishang and got this position, but now he feels a little boring.
