Zhang Yue, under the guidance of the eunuchs, walked into Penglai Pavilion.

The place is still as in the past, paved with extravagant decorations, and Zhang Yue even noticed that there are several new furnishings in the hall.

It's just that the atmosphere in this is like an ice cave, which makes Zhang Yue feel a little biting.

He even saw that at the door of the outer hall of this Penglai Pavilion, there were full of ministers kneeling.

It's not just Guo Guangyi, the prince of Guangling King Liu Xu, and Xu Hong, the prime minister.

There are also the prince Liu Ju's Taifu Shide, the family order Wang He, more than a dozen princes, and horse washing.

Everyone was lying on the ground, and they didn't even dare to lift their heads.

Needless to say, when today's son once again opened his talent as a troll.

Zhang Yue hadn't seen this majesty angry, but he had heard of some.

It is said that when he was angry, people stood in the way of scolding people, and ghosts blocked ghosts.

For more than 40 years, only Han Yan, Zhang Tang, Gongsun Hong, Wei Qing, Huo Quzhi and a few others can calm him down in a state of anger.

In the last ten years, the temper has been many times greater than in previous years.

After thinking about the manuscript in his heart, Zhang Yue lifted the ribbon and stepped into the inner hall.

"The courtiers lead the new Feng Shiyi, and meet my emperor......" He bowed slightly, walked into the hall, and bowed: "May my emperor live a long life......

Everyone, including the eunuchs and maids, looked at Zhang Yue as if they had seen a savior.

The attitude of the Son of Heaven was still cold, without the enthusiasm of the past, and he just said lightly: "Get up!" ”

"The minister respectfully obeys the edict!" Zhang Yue got up in an orderly manner, and then arrived at the scene in this hall - the crown prince Liu Ju was like a frightened deer, lying in front of him, shivering.

And Liu Xu, the king of Guangling, was even more unbearable, he even took off his crown and put it on the ground.

A young man who looked quite similar to Liu Xu stood beside the Son of Heaven, bowing his head and not saying a word.

Zhang Yue knew that he should be Liu Xu's brother, Liu Dan, the king of Yan.

Zhang Yue bowed deeply to these three people: "The minister has seen the family and the two kings ......"

Liu Ju and Liu Xu didn't dare to talk, only Liu Dan was bold, raised his head and said to Zhang Yue: "There is no need to be polite in the waiter...... but there was a hint of joy in his eyes, looking at Zhang Yue's eyes, just like looking at a peerless beauty, which made Zhang Yue feel a little uncomfortable.

Zhang Yue hurriedly removed his eyes, looked at the Son of Heaven, and stepped forward to worship: "The minister is here, I want to congratulate Your Majesty......"

"Hmm......" The Son of Heaven looked at Zhang Yue, his anger still did not dissipate, but considering that the ugliness of the family could not be publicized, he reluctantly suppressed the urge to continue spraying people, and asked, "What is the joy?" ”

"The squatting ducks and squatting birds transported in the southwest, after the hard work of the Shaofu Yousi, can be turned into food the day after tomorrow, and the ...... of the monarch is presented" Zhang Yue said with a smile: "From now on, there is one more source of food in the world, and Your Majesty has one more tax, how can the minister not congratulate Your Majesty?" ”

Hearing this, the Son of Heaven finally showed a hint of a smile and said, "It's hard to love Qing!" ”

He still attaches great importance to this matter.

If the southwestern countries can provide Chang'an with 2 million stones of food made of various types of squatting ducks and squatting birds every year, then the burden on the people can be greatly reduced.

You must know that every year when grain is transferred from Aocang to the customs, more than 100,000 people must be levied and distributed.

And these people eat, drink, and lazar, all of which are burdens from the state.

From this, one stone of rice into Beijing requires at least one liter of consumption.

Every year, the money spent by the Han family on grain can even start a medium-sized war in the north.

If the cost of transporting squatting and squatting birds from the southwest region is almost zero.

Because as long as it is feasible, he can stipulate how much and how much money and squatting owls must be paid to Chang'an every year.

If you don't pay tribute, then it is not Hanchen, and the second and third sons can beat the drum.

Of course, as the suzerain, he is also responsible for taking the benefits of his younger brother.

For example, according to the amount of tribute they paid, they were given a certain amount of cloth, ironware, silk, and tea, and they had to protect and recognize their local dominion, and in case of a rebellion of the nobles or rebellion of the people, they had to send a large army to suppress the battle.

But in general, it was the Han family who earned it.

Thinking like this, the Son of Heaven looked at Liu Ju and Liu Xu with some hatred, and said, "If these two rebels can have half of the prince's loyalty to the country, I don't have to worry so much......

Zhang Yue listened, but he was scared!

hurriedly bowed: "Your Majesty Miaozan, the minister does not dare to be the reputation of His Majesty......"

He looked at Liu Ju and Liu Xu, and said suddenly: "The family is benevolent and righteous, and the king of Guangling has an upright personality, and his ministers are just a small person......

Are you kidding?

How did Deng Tong die?

Isn't it that when Taizong was sick, because of the good service and the diligence of the service, it was greatly appreciated by Taizong, but when the first emperor went to meet him, he took this as a reason to spray the first emperor.

Thereupon......

The new monarch ascended the throne, and Deng Tong had no choice but to go to Taizong......

"You don't have to say good things for them!" The Son of Heaven does not have so many scruples at all, since the death of the Empress Dowager Dou and the Empress Dowager, there is no one in this world who can make him jealous.

"Let's talk about today's events......" The Son of Heaven looked at Zhang Yue and asked: "King Guangling said that the conflict with Qing Qi was because of the prince's washing of horses and Li Yu, does Qing approve of it?" ”

When Zhang Yue heard this, he looked up at the Son of Heaven, then at Liu Ju, and then at Liu Xu, feeling that he really didn't know how to answer.

Because, whatever he says, he will offend one of them.

Even the Son of Heaven was offended together!

"Just say it......" The Son of Heaven didn't give Zhang Yue time to think about it at all: "Don't give face to the prince and the king of Guangling!" ”

At the same time, he clenched a silk book in his hand.

That was Wang Mang's report.

In other words, what the facts were, he already knew.

Wang Mang explained what happened, investigated it carefully, and even figured out the dialogue between Li Yu, Liu Xu and Zhang Yue.

In this world, there are few things that are not clear to Zhijingo.

So, it's actually a test.

Let's see if this little stay will be in front of him, stealing and playing tricks or fanning the flames.

This is critical!

It's about whether he can trust this person more!

In his heart, this majesty is also very entangled, on the one hand, he hopes that Zhang Yue can tell him the truth.

But on the other hand, I don't want Zhang Yue to tell the truth.

Because once this truth is told, it is equivalent to putting a label on the heads of both Liu Xu and Liu Ju.

The country will also lose face!

The dignified prince of the Han family and the king of Guangling were played with by a courtier.

This is going to be passed on, what do the people of the world and future generations think of his two sons?

Liu Xu and Liu Ju looked at Zhang Yue even more nervously.

The two of them are also very entangled in their hearts now.

Liu Xu understands very well, he is afraid that Zhang Yue will tell everything about the incident, so that his efforts and attempts to shift all the responsibility to Li Yu will fail, with his father's temper, I am afraid that he will have to say goodbye to Guangling.

A few years ago, after he fought in the tiger circle and killed the tiger, he was so happy that he stoned one of his courtiers to death.

was scolded by the father for a bloody dog, and the angry father even said: "Why do you want to be in Guangling? Go and cross your toes with the savages ...... king."

Liu Ju is more entangled than Liu Xu.

Because he didn't know whether he should hope that this servant would tell the truth, or favor himself or Liu Xu?

But these three choices are what he doesn't want to see.

Choosing either one will hurt him or his brother.

……………………………………

Zhang Yue suddenly remembered someone.

The late Imperial Historian Zhang Tang and Prime Minister Pingjin offered their fathers Sun Hong.

"How did these two guys do this problem?" Zhang Yue scratched and found several similar examples in his mind.

Then he understood what he had to do.

He lifted the ribbon, took off his sable crown, and bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, the minister can't say it!" ”

"Huh?" Heaven is amazing.

"The ministers are ashamed of the venerable, the sages are ashamed, the gentleman's trip, and the foundation of the minister!" Zhang Yue bowed down and said: "Therefore, the disadvantages of the Spring and Autumn Period are ......"

"Fang is under today, the etiquette is broken, the Han rites are not systematized, the Han music is not prosperous, and the education is not implemented, so the ministers can't say ......"

Back then, Zhang Tang and Gongsun Hong, although they had never encountered anything like Zhang Yue.

But they have been attacked and impeached countless times.

Especially Gongsun Hong, who is often beaten for small reports and stuffed black materials.

And the two of them, in the face of such a situation, made the same choice - no defense, no defense, and handed over the power to make decisions to the Son of Heaven.

As a result, Longyan Dayue, even if there is a mistake, is also thought to be a flaw.

The most beautiful thing is that when Gongsun Hong made a small report in the face of Ji Di, saying that he was cheating and disloyal, and took out a real hammer, Gongsun Hong responded.

He didn't do anything, only said one sentence: Those who know the ministers are loyal, and those who don't know the ministers are disloyal......

Translated, it is - know that I sin against me, and its only spring and autumn.

And the effect is leveraged!

Therefore, Zhang Yue knows very well that today's person hates others to make ideas for him the most!

Who are you?

How dare you teach me to do things?

Almost all those who thought they were awesome and wanted to make up their minds for him ended up in tragedy.

On the contrary, Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang, who hid their thoughts and suggestions in sycophancy and sycophants, did things beautifully, and they didn't offend him.

You must know that Zhang Yueke heard that when Zhang Tang was a court lieutenant, he prepared three plans all year round.

One is what the Son of Heaven likes, one is what the Son of Heaven doesn't like, and the other is something that the Son of Heaven neither likes nor hates.

Look at the situation, look at the words and look at the plan.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable that the corporal doctors in the world always like to talk about 'taking a long vacation without returning'.

Every successful minister and politician of the Han family is an actor.

Although Zhang Yue doesn't really want to be an actor, the reality is like this.

If you are not an actor, you can't mix it.

And in this matter, Zhang Yue knows very well that no matter what he says, it is wrong, and it is impossible to achieve any intentions.

Such a big matter involves a prince and a prince.

To say that His Majesty did not have a clear calculation in his heart and made a good decision?

Ghost letter!

Sure enough, the Son of Heaven listened to Zhang Yue's answer, although he was still cold, but there were many more appreciative looks in his eyes, he clapped his hands and said, "Come on, give Zhang Shizhong a seat!" ”
