The next day, in order to deal with these trivial matters, the Son of Heaven convened a court meeting.

And this court discussion will definitely not be too stable, because Dong Zhuo has returned from Hedong, and although the officials are arguing about the rest of the matter, they are still so unanimous in the face of Dong Zhuo, they went to Liu Mastiff before, but also apologized to the prince, they dare not disobey His Majesty's orders, not to mention that Zhang He's butcher often visits the door, which makes the family uneasy.

His Royal Highness the eldest son of the emperor surnamed Liu, who are you Dong Zhuo?

Everyone was soft on the Son of Heaven and the eldest son of the emperor, but their disgust for Dong Zhuo did not decrease, after receiving the notice of the court, hundreds of officials gathered in front of the palace, Situ Gong stood at the front, there were many ministers standing beside him, I don't know what they were talking about, but, looking at their serious appearance, the rest of the ministers did not approach at all, for fear that they would get into any trouble.

Lu Zhi is not as inactive as Cui Gong, after he took the throne, he was busy carrying out various measures, which made him uneasy, and the officials even missed Cui Gong a little, in addition, it was Yuan Shu, and there were many people around him, both from the big clan, and from the pro-Tianzi faction, in contrast, the more shabby one was Jia Xu, and there was only one Dong Zhuo by his side.

Dong Zhuo stood by Jia Xu's side, facing the hostility of many ministers, he was not afraid at all, but happily talked to Jia Xu about the situation in Hedong and even Liangzhou, he had not gone home for a long time, nor did he go to the northwest, but he did not expect that in a short period of time, those places have made such great progress, he talked with Jia Xu with a big grin, and he didn't know how helpless Jia Xu was beside him.

God is pitiful, I was forced to become the third public... Forget it, I'm still forced by the Son of Heaven to be busy all day... That's it, but why do you have to follow Dong Zhuo to suffer now, looking at the eyes of the ministers around you, they must have thought that this fat man was protected by me and brought back to Luoyang, eh? No, this fat man didn't come to talk to me unintentionally, it was the Son of Heaven who asked him to come...

No wonder there is some déjà vu...

When everyone came and the palace door was opened, Lu Zhi led his ministers in.

When they entered the main hall, they sat down one by one.

Dong Zhuo leaned towards Jia Xu, Jia Xu looked around for a moment, and finally sighed and sat in his place with an expressionless face.

For some reason, the entire temple fell into an eerie silence, and even the guards and Yellow Gate stationed around felt uncomfortable, which made people quite uneasy.

When the Son of Heaven walked in, this situation was broken, Lu Zhi took the ministers to get up to meet the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven returned the salute, and then they sat down again, the Son of Heaven seemed to be in a good mood, sat on the top position, and looked at the ministers again, especially at Dong Zhuo, and asked unhurriedly: "The ministers... Can there be a play? ”

As soon as the Son of Heaven finished speaking, Cai Yong suddenly got up and bowed his hands.

The Son of Heaven rubbed his forehead and asked; "Cai Gong, what's the matter?"

"Your Majesty!"

"Please cook Dong Zhongying!"

As soon as Cai Yong finished speaking, the ministers got up one after another.

"Your Majesty! Please cook Dong Zhongying! ”

Dong Zhuo's eyes widened, looking at the appearance of this full court, and he was a little speechless.

And Jia Xu on the side seemed to want to get up, but in the process, he still went up a lot, sure enough, the Son of Heaven was still looking in this direction from time to time, looking at the fierce light in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, Jia Xu's half-raised jiji was put back into the distance, and continued to sit on his knees, closing his eyes and recuperating....

The ministers were excited, how many years, it was rare, the ministers of the DPRK and China had a common word, at this moment, everyone was a friend, and many years of contradictions and grievances seemed to cease to exist, and the root of all this was caused by a fat man who acted nonsense.

"Jia Gong.. Jia Gong.."

Dong Zhuo suppressed his voice and pulled Raja Xu's sleeve.

Jia Xu opened his eyes a little helplessly and looked at him.

"Jia Gong, what should I do?"

"Just wait for the edict of the Son of Heaven."

Jia Xu said, knowing in his heart, he naturally knew that if he said a word to Dong Zhuo like this, he would definitely be regarded as Dong Zhuo's backer by the ministers, so he began to target, however, Jia Xu was also used to it, as early as when the Son of Heaven had not ascended the throne, it was like this, he became a thief who saved Wang Fu, and the ministers were punished by the pen and mouth, and had no choice but to stay away from Luoyang, this was not easy to come back, and he had not lived a few days of stable life...

In this regard, Jia Xu could only sigh...

Sure enough, as soon as they finished talking, the Son of Heaven looked over here and said, "Master Jia, in the future, I still have to take care of Dong Jun more, this time, I will follow Shijun's will and let him go this time!" ”

Jia Xu got up and bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

The ministers glared at Jia Xu and Dong Zhuo, and sat down helplessly, Zhang Fei also snorted coldly, because of Jia Xu's identity, he didn't say much, everyone sat down, Situ Luzhi stood up again, looked at the Son of Heaven, and said, "Your Majesty..."

"Situ Gong..."

"Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, the country has been peaceful, the people are happy, this is the prosperity of the world..."Lu Zhi said, the ministers listened carefully, Lu Zhi got up so eagerly, could it be that he just wanted to flatter the Son of Heaven? Everyone was thinking, and sure enough, Lu Zhi said the end, and suddenly said: "However, the minister heard that Hongdu Men School, and within three months, it cost 650,000 yuan..."

"Mobilize nearly 3,000 people..."

"Such an expense, the minister has never heard of it in his life..."

"I beg Your Majesty to withdraw the Hongdu Gate School!"

After Lu Zhi finished speaking, the entire temple fell silent, everyone knew how much the Son of Heaven cared about this Hongdu Gate School, in the past few years, the time that the Son of Heaven stayed in the Hongdu Gate School was longer than the time he stayed in the Cile Palace, Situ Gong's words were afraid that it would cause the Son of Heaven to be angry, and everyone hurriedly lowered their heads, for fear that the anger of the Son of Heaven would implicate them.

The Son of Heaven was only silent for a moment, and then said: "Situ Gong doesn't know, Hongdu Sect Learning, the stakes are very high, can Situ Gong know about the silk weaving machine?" ”

"I don't know what this thing has to do with this matter?"

"Hongdumen learned to improve the weaving machine, for twelve feet, the cost is only two hundred yuan, one person can hold it, therefore, I ordered them to make more of this thing, and want to promote it to the people..."

The Son of Heaven explained seriously, he was not angry at all, and he did not blame Lu Zhi, who would come, spent so much financial resources, and did not tell his whereabouts, it would definitely be played like this, Lu Zhi can say this, it shows his integrity and conscientiousness, sure enough, after hearing the explanation of the Son of Heaven, Lu Zhi's face eased a lot, and after asking a few more words, he nodded and said: "That's it, it's okay!" ”

"Hahaha, I'm not a plaything, every step is for my family and country!" The Son of Heaven said with some pride, on weekdays, hundreds of officials always use Hongdumen to accuse themselves, and now, when the results are made, you will be speechless?

Hundreds of officials got up one after another and worshiped the wisdom of the Son of Heaven.

Lu Zhi put forward the idea of building a border fortress again, but the ministers did not dare to say anything, the Son of Heaven is now in a good mood, thought for a moment, and said: "The public can formulate its strategy first, I will take a look at it first, if it is feasible, I will follow what the public says!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Zhi sat down with some excitement.

"Your Majesty!"

This time it was Xing Ziang who got up, and when he saw Xing Ziang come out, everyone was also a little surprised, this Shang Shuling, how many years of obscurity, never said much, Xing Ziang said: "Since Jianning, the roads have been in disrepair, water transportation has been blocked, and there has been no progress....", after he said his thoughts, the Son of Heaven was also the same as Lu Zhi, let him come up with a rough plan first.

As the ministers played one by one, time passed quickly.

"Your Majesty!"

Yuan Shu got up and said: "Your Majesty promotes the silk weaving machine, which is sure to benefit the farmers, however, the treasury is empty, and the people who take it from the people, the minister thinks that it can increase the silk brocade business tax, and in addition, for those who have more weaving machines at home, take the tax, starting with two frames.... This is a rough outline of the minister...", Yuan Shu handed over the table that had been prepared a long time ago to the Son of Heaven, who lowered his head and looked at it seriously.

Although, the Son of Heaven has already read this statement several times.

"Well. Can. ”

The Son of Heaven agreed, the minister's face was different, Yuan Shu's play, the former was just that, but the latter was indeed a little unfavorable to them, but the Son of Heaven had just agreed to so many things, and he couldn't refute this one thing, and the loss was not big... While they were thinking, Cao Cao suddenly got up, looked at the Son of Heaven, and bowed his hands.

The Son of Heaven frowned, this guy, don't you still want to object?

"Your Majesty, the words of the commonplace, the envoy remembered another matter!"

"What?"

"When the minister and the three Han were officials, they learned that the temple had set up a tax on animal husbandry, herding horses, porpoises, cattle, sheep, dogs, chickens, ducks, etc., each of which charged different taxes, such as horse herders, grain Erhu, but the minister felt that this matter was quite unfair, Sanhan had rich households, herding horses, grain Erhu, Li Shu, shepherd thin horses, grain Erhu..."

Cao Cao said, the Son of Heaven realized, and asked: "What do you mean, is it to increase the tax on Yuan Shu's weaving silk, as for the pastor?" ”

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, the tax on cultivated land has been based on the size of the cultivated land, and the rest of the taxes, can't this be the case?"

"Good! Great Kindness!! ”

Yuan Shu shouted excitedly, just after Cao Cao finished speaking, countless roads appeared in front of him, each of which could make the treasury of the Han Dynasty abundant, which made Yuan Shu how unhappy, the Son of Heaven nodded and said: "This matter will be handed over to Mengde and the road, how about it?" ”

"Your Majesty. This..."

Suddenly, a minister got up and wanted to object, but he couldn't think of a reason to oppose it, and looked at it eagerly.

It's just weaving silk, but if you have to take such a measure everywhere, isn't it going to happen? The powerful clans, for no reason, have to pay several times or even dozens of times more taxes, how can this be bearable!

Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde!

Thou thou shalt be traitor!!!! 8)
