Chapter 88: Chu Ze's Plan (Ask for Subscription, Ask for Support)
Early the next morning, Chu Ze got up, remembering last night's dream, Chu Ze sighed, and then played a set of boxing in the martial arts arena, practiced a gun, and then cleaned up and walked towards the palace after sweating.
Fang Xuanling's eldest grandson Wuji and others were worried about raising food, and they were scolded by His Majesty Li Er yesterday, so they were waiting outside the Taiji Hall early in the morning.
When Chu Ze arrived, several ministers were discussing in a whisper on the side, His Majesty Li Er had not yet arrived, Chu Ze saluted all the ministers one by one, and it was not strange that many people were courteous. No matter when, be humble and courteous, be kind to others, and usually show respect for others, maybe most of the time there is no benefit, and there will be absolutely no harm.
But when Chu Ze saluted an old man he had never seen, the latter snorted coldly, as if he had seen something disgusting to him, and glared at Chu Ze and opened his mouth to say something.
Chu Zexin said, "Who is this, I provoked you to provoke you, or did I steal your daughter-in-law, staring at me like this?" ”
Before the old man could say anything, an attendant shouted that His Majesty Li Er had arrived, interrupting what the old man was about to say, and the old man put down his hand hatefully and followed everyone to greet His Majesty Li Er.
Everyone gave His Majesty Li Er a salute, His Majesty Li Er said that he was flat, and as soon as everyone straightened up, the old man with a face couldn't wait to stand up and said loudly: "Your Majesty! The saint has no words, and the strange power is confused. Lao Chen has never heard of anyone who can really predict the future in advance, and according to what Yangquan County said is recorded in the books handed down by his ancestors, this kind of thing is unheard of, and Your Majesty must not believe such a ridiculous statement! ”
His Majesty Li Er glanced at the old man and said lightly, "Where did Gao Aiqing say this?" The purpose of convening the ministers today is to discuss the elevation of the embankment of the Wei River and to raise food for emergencies. ”
His Majesty Li Er's words made Gao Shilian choke in his heart, "Damn, didn't you say that the Wei River would burst its embankment in three months?" Why is this His Majesty Li Er's uneasy routine to play cards! ”
Chu Ze was thinking in his heart about which minister surnamed Gao was during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, and only his father Xu Guogong Gao Shilian, who had had some festivals with him a few days ago, was calculated.
Chu Ze didn't think anything about Gao Shilian's words, and Gao Shilian's suspicions were understandable, because if he encountered this kind of thing himself, he would definitely be suspicious of it, after all, it was a bit too unbelievable.
In fact, all the ministers present except Gao Shilian had doubts about what Chu Ze said, but none of them raised it like Gao Shilian, after all, this kind of thing would rather be believed than not believed, and he didn't see that His Majesty Li Er was busy arranging for everyone to discuss how to deal with this matter after listening to it, and he didn't say anything else, so the ministers didn't say their doubts in their hearts yesterday.
Gao Shilian is the uncle of the eldest grandson Wuji, when the eldest grandson Wuji was young, Gao Shilian took care of the eldest grandson Wuji, the eldest grandson Wuji also respected his uncle, and usually went to Gao Shilian to discuss anything he encountered, and left the palace last night The eldest grandson Wuji went to Gao Shilian's mansion, and wanted to listen to his uncle's advice on these things, Gao Shilian listened to the eldest grandson Wuji After talking about the ins and outs of the whole thing, he shouted on the spot that this matter was ridiculous, and immediately decided to enter the palace today to tell His Majesty Li Er about it.
Gao Shilian lowered his head and thought for a while, and then his eyes flashed and he said: "The old minister heard that yesterday Yangquan County said that the Wei River will break the embankment in March next year, this kind of thing has never been heard of by the old minister, Yangquan County is lying to confuse the public, Your Majesty, don't be deceived by such villains!" ”
When Gao Shilian spoke, his eyes were fixed on Chu Ze.
", you say you're suspicious, you suspect it, why do you say that I'm lying to confuse the public, I've eaten your rice?" Chu Ze was very unhappy in his heart, and the anger in his heart rushed upward.
His Majesty Li Er frowned, glanced at the eldest grandson Wuji who was bowing his head on the side, and was about to speak, Chu Ze couldn't help but say, "The lower official has a question to ask Lord Gao." ”
Gao Shilian was waiting for His Majesty Li Er to speak, and when His Majesty Li Er finished speaking, he poured dirty water on it again, believing that His Majesty Li Er would definitely drive this hairy boy out of the palace, Gao Shilian, who was dreaming, saw Chu Ze stand up, snorted impatiently, and said: "Yangquan County, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask!" The disdain and disgust in his expression were undisguised
Chu Ze suppressed the anger in his heart and said patiently: "May I ask Lord Gao, if the matter of the Wei River bursting the embankment that the lower official said will not happen, then what will be the consequences of the lower official?" ”
Gao Shilian said without hesitation: "Of course the Weihe River will not burst the embankment, and Your Majesty will definitely cure you for the crime of bewitching the public by then!" ”
Chu Ze smiled slightly and said, "In that case, why did Xia Guan risk being punished by His Majesty to tell this matter." This can be of any benefit to the lower officials. In addition, Xiaguan had already said yesterday that this is some calculation records on Xiaguan's ancestors, whether this matter is true or false, Xiaguan himself is also a little suspicious, and Xiaguan does not want to see the Weihe River burst, but Xiaguan is afraid that it will really break the embankment at that time, and at that time, I Datang will not be prepared at all, and it is the people of Datang who suffer, so Xiaguan will tell this matter at the risk of being punished by His Majesty! ”
Saying that, Chu Ze gave a salute to His Majesty Li Er and said, "Fortunately, Your Majesty Shengming did not immediately deal with the sins of the lower officials, but discussed making some arrangements, and what the lower officials are doing now is to prevent trouble before it happens, what is the intention of Lord Gao to repeatedly say that the lower officials' evil words confuse the public, can it be said that Lord Gao thinks that he understands things better than His Majesty!" ”
Compared with Gao Shilian's saying that Chu Ze's fallacies confuse the public, Chu Ze's words can be described as heart-wrenching, in feudal society, the emperor of heaven and earth is the greatest, who dares to be more sensible than His Majesty Li Er?
After listening to Chu Ze's words, Gao Shilian's face changed, his face turned red, he raised his hand and pointed at Chu Ze angrily, turned to His Majesty Li Er on the throne and said, "Your Majesty! This Chu Ze has bad intentions, don't be gullible! ”
Chu Ze's face changed and he looked at Gao Shilian, and he didn't understand why Gao Shilian was so targeted at himself, this is really the case in the court, sometimes offending a person, or making enemies with others, is really unconsciously.
His Majesty Li Er ignored the angry Gao Shilian, and said after changing his sitting posture: "This matter has been decided, and besides, Chang'an is already short of food now, and it is not a bad thing to raise more food." And the construction of the embankment of the Wei River is a must-do, but this year, the embankment will be repaired higher, and the auxiliary machine, Xuan Ling, Xiao Yu, and Chu Ze, you will state your own food raising plan. ”
Gao Shilian's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he opened his mouth to say something more, but seeing the attitude of His Majesty Li Er, it was clear that he didn't want to dispute this matter anymore, so he had to give up first, stand aside quietly, and glared at Chu Ze fiercely.
The eldest grandson Wuji took the lead in coming up with his own plan to elaborate, followed by Fang Xuanling and Xiao Yu.
The plan that the eldest grandson Wuji and the others came up with was a hundred times better than yesterday's prevarication, and His Majesty Li Er kept nodding when he heard it. His Majesty Li Er is very satisfied with the performance of these ministers today, not to mention what the plan is, at least now they have not shirked each other. As for people, you still have to beat it properly, or he won't leave!
Chu Ze was the last to elaborate, and after listening to the plans of the previous people, Chu Ze was full of confidence in his plan, because the plan of the eldest grandson Wuji and several people sounded very gorgeous, and it was just gorgeous rhetoric, and he did not propose any specific solutions to the problem.
Chu Ze coughed lightly, and under the gaze of His Majesty Li Er and all the ministers, he stood up and spoke.
Looking at Chu Ze with his eyes, Gao Shilian snorted coldly, without the slightest contempt in his eyes, a hairy boy, he doesn't know whether his bird feathers have grown or not, what can he do, can he compare to the ministers of the Tang Dynasty, but he is just a grandiose villain!
