579 Take a long-term view

In the palace, the small meeting continued.

After being stunned for a moment, King Yue was the first to come back to his senses, "Ladies and gentlemen, Xiaozhi...... Probably a mistake, right? ”

"The minister also thinks it's a mistake." Xie Yan Xie didn't shy away from suspicion at this time, and hurriedly rushed to speak, "The official road from the capital to the Golden Scale City is not short, and it is only tens of thousands of taels of silver, and it is not enough to stuff the teeth. ”

As he spoke, he spread his hands and spoke playfully, trying to ease the overly serious atmosphere in the hall.

The subtext is that everyone thinks that the valuation on this fold is a joke.

"No!" Ma Shangshu arched his hand, and his words were concise, "How could such a strict person as Jun Ma Ye write it wrong?" ”

"√, it is absolutely impossible to write it wrong, it is tens of thousands of taels." This is a scholar of Li Yang University.

"Minister, second." This is Liu Kang, a scholar who has always been a quiet speaker.

King Yue: "......"

Xie Yan: "......"

A gentleman and a minister glanced at each other, still had nothing to say, reasonable, this is a twist, how can it be written wrong?

Probably, maybe, Lu Zhi really has a way, the two of them thought so, and they could only be anxious in their hearts.

King Yue secretly regretted that he should have communicated with Xiao Zhi first, and then show the ministers the folds, it would be difficult to collect the water.

"The old minister will go to raise silver taels and guarantee that it will be delivered to the county master in the near future." Ma Shangshu gave up his hand, and didn't give King Yue a chance to speak, smeared oil on the soles of his feet and yo-yos.

As for how Lu Zhi used tens of thousands of taels to repair the official road?

Ma Shangshu doesn't care, he uses the least amount of money to do the biggest thing, this is his consistent philosophy.

Hey, anyway, I allocated the money to you, if it's not enough, it's not enough for you to think about it, the household department will definitely not pay any more, no, it's really not a drop.

Hey, this wave is very comfortable! …… Ma Shangshu's feet were brisk, and he felt several years younger, as if his bones were lighter.

…………

"Minister, retire." "The minister also retired."

As soon as Ma Shangshu left, Li Yang and Liu Kang also followed, leaving only Xie Yan and King Yue in the main hall.

"Uh...... Why don't the old ministers write a letter to ask about the situation? Xie Yan glanced at King Yue and felt that there was really not much he could do.

You ask Lu Li, why don't you ask Xiao Zhi directly, King Yue shook his head, "Forget it, let's do this first." ”

The two of them were concerned about it, and they didn't think carefully about the feasibility of the matter at all, just thinking about speaking for Lu Zhi.

said that Li Yang and Liu Kang, two scholars, walked slowly along the palace avenue and were very leisurely.

"Do you think it can be done?" Wandering around was not the goal, Li Yang still spoke.

Liu Kang shook his head, "Don't you already have an answer, and you still ask me what to do?" ”

"yes, there's already an answer." Li Yang let out a long sigh, "Jun Ma Ye has some magical methods, the official road must be fine, it's just ......"

"Thou shalt not speak, thou shalt not speak." Liu Kang shook his head again, obviously knowing what Li Yang wanted to say, "You and I are both at this age, what do you want to do so much?" ”

Li Yang didn't understand, but he couldn't help but worry about the future of the imperial court.

The second prince is good, the third prince is okay, the little prince has the support of the county horse lord behind him, and the problem is not big, the only thing I am afraid of is that the power of the county horse master will not be able to fall, and the time will be in control of the government.

Hey, what are you doing with all this? …… Li Yang didn't think about it anymore, and slowly exhaled a breath, feeling a lot more relaxed.

Just like Liu Kang said, they are not young, and it is really useless to think about this.

As the saying goes, once a son of heaven and a courtier, Li Yang and Liu Kang both know that once they have a new king, they should slowly retire.

These two are both understanding people, and they know that as long as they don't get involved in the battle for the storage position, relying on so many years of accumulation in the court, their family will have no problems.

As for whether the two princes have tried to win them over, of course there are, but no matter how they try to win them over, they are doomed to fail.

Not helping each other is really the best and wisest choice for the two scholars.

If the second generation of the family continues to be a great minister, then is this court the court of the royal family, or the court of the two families?

Therefore, no matter which prince becomes the king of Yue, it is impossible to reuse his Li and Liu families, that is to say, all the heavy conditions for wooing are empty promises, and it is impossible to achieve them.

As long as you figure this out, everything will be clear and clear, the risk of competing for savings is huge, once you fail, the family will be ruined, and there is no equivalent income, the ghost will invest in it.

The second generation of the two families is destined not to be high-ranking officials, but the third generation may still have the opportunity to revitalize the family.

Hey, smart people settle accounts like this, and they have a long-term vision.

…………

The next day, the government discussed politics, and it was naturally about repairing the official road.

Road construction is a national policy, King Yue proposed, the three scholars, the household department, and the military department also nodded, so it should be said that there should be no controversy about this matter, right?

But the truth is very surprising, not only are there people who oppose it, but there are also quite a few of them, and they are mainly military generals, even if their official positions are not too high, but they are also a large force.

What's even more unexpected is still to come, and there is another group of people who stand up against these opponents, this force is also not small, but most of them are civil servants.

This is very interesting, since ancient times, the lord of the civil ministers, and the generals of the main battle, it is said that repairing the official road will help the military, and the generals should be in favor, right, why did it come here but the other way around?

Most people think it's weird, right?

But it is not surprising that the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and it is not surprising that the King of Yue is not surprising, there are two princes standing behind these two forces, and this is starting to "dog eat dog" again.

Putting aside this daily struggle for the time being, there are indeed many officials who oppose it, but among all civil and military officials, this proportion is not large.

Therefore, it failed to affect the overall situation, and the proposal to repair the official road was finally passed.

…………

According to the grapevine, the third prince was very angry about this result, and it is said that he dropped a jade glass cup that night, and punished the general who was responsible for taking care of the glass glass.

According to the analysis of people familiar with the matter, it is estimated that the news was sent by the second prince.

No matter how it came out, the third prince's dissatisfaction may be true.

He led the troops to quell the rebellion and needed a lot of military expenses, most of which were spent on the march, and if the official roads were repaired, the household would have less money to allocate money.

This is also the reason why the forces of the three princes prevented the repair.

If it is repaired, their military spending will be less, and correspondingly, the funds for "activities" will be deducted from military spending.

You must know that the third prince needs money to buy people's hearts, and repairing the official road will affect his financial resources.

At this point, the third prince is not as good as the second prince, and there is not much money to do, so this wave is very hurtful.
