Chapter 49: The Left Phase
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials behind the man began to discuss one after another.
"What Zuo Xiang said is reasonable!"
"It's not a bad idea!"
"Disaster relief should really be a priority now!"
But after Jin Yantang heard this, the condensation on his face became more and more serious.
He snorted coldly, threw down a fold from the bookcase and said in front of Zuo Xiang: "What Shang Aiqing said is true, but the money is gone, what kind of disaster relief do I have?!" ”
"Boom!"
As soon as Jin Yantang's words fell, a thunderbolt slashed outside the Jinluan Palace, and everyone suddenly shuddered and fell silent.
Zuo Xiang Shang Chengyuan's face changed, and he was silent for a moment.
Behind him, a slightly chubby official with shrewd eyes couldn't help but laugh secretly when he saw this.
Afterwards, he said in a respectful voice: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to donate 1,000 taels of silver to help the people tide over the difficulties!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but cast surprised glances at him.
The Hubu Shangshu who was kneeling on the ground was shocked, and he glanced at the person and recognized that the person was the current military department Shangshu - Wen Quanwu!
Seeing that he was generous, Jin Yantang's slightly angry expression couldn't help but gradually ease, and he looked at Wen Quanwu suspiciously: "Wen Aiqing has this heart, I am very pleased, but your salary and silver in the military department can't be moved, no matter how bitter I am, I won't be so bitter as a soldier who fights for the country!" ”
Wen Quan Wudao: "Your Majesty, rest assured, these are the rewards and money that the ministers have saved in recent years, and now they can be used in times of crisis, and the ministers are also happy in their hearts!" ”
Hearing this, Jin Yantang smiled, and when he looked at the left minister again, there was a look of dissatisfaction in his eyes: "Hmph, Wen Aiqing still knows how to do things, Concubine Ning is also very worried these days, I have to say, Wen Aiqing, you really taught a good daughter!" ”
Wen Quanwu suppressed the joy in his heart and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty for your praise!" ”
"Okay, let's stop here for today's matter, Lord Chen, if the household department can't find those lost disaster silver, Hugh blames me for turning his face and being ruthless!"
After finishing speaking, Jin Yantang waved his long sleeves and turned around and left here.
The ministers hurriedly sent them off: "Weichen sends your majesty!" ”
As soon as the court meeting dispersed, these officials left in twos and threes, all of them looking worried along the way, Your Majesty's look today is really terrifying!
In the past, when the dynasty dispersed, who of the officials did not crowd Zuo Xiang Shang Chengyuan in the center of the crowd?
But now it is different from the past, His Majesty has become disgusted with Zuo Xiang, and even Concubine Chen, who is rumored to be favored in the palace, has been snubbed by His Majesty.
Now Wen Quanwu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, is the object of everyone's stammering, and the news that Concubine Ning is pregnant in the palace has already spread all over the government and the opposition, if this Concubine Ning gives birth to the emperor's eldest son or the emperor's eldest daughter, Wen Quanwu's status will naturally rise!
Shang Kelin helped his father and looked at the group of people with annoyance: "Snobbish! ”
Shang Chengyuan was ridiculed by His Majesty just now, and now he was snubbed by everyone, but he didn't look anxious at all, and his face was calm and calm.
He stood in the Jinluan Palace, looked at the backs of those officials leaving, touched his beard lightly and said: "Lin'er, some things can't just be seen on the surface, if Your Majesty is really such a superficial person with thoughts and emotions, how can he make a move to overthrow the emperor's government?" Da Zhou is really blessed to have him! ”
When Shang Kelin heard this, he couldn't help but pout: "Dad, you still praise him at this time, and I don't know who sarcastically mocked you in front of so many civil and military officials just now!" Also, I heard Miss Wenchun who came to deliver the letter last time say that Concubine Ning and Concubine Hua are working together to deal with Lan'er! ”
Shang Chengyuan was scheming, and his cloudy eyes flashed with wisdom.
He smiled at Shang Kelin and said, "Your sister is smart, and her father can rest assured that she is better than you!" ”
Suddenly, Shang Kelin stopped doing: "Hey, Dad, what do you mean by that?" ”
While the two were talking, at this time, Fu Pu walked out of the hall, and came to the two of them and whispered: "Lord Shang, Your Majesty invites the two of you to go to the imperial study for a while." ”
Shang Kelin's eyes were stunned, but Shang Chengyuan smiled faintly: "Please ask Father-in-law Fu to lead the way." ”
Fupu was respectful, and bowed his waist along the way: "The two of you, please follow the Sprinkle family." ”
Inside the Imperial Study.
"Weichen see Your Majesty!"
Zuo Xiang's father and son saluted respectfully to Jin Yantang, who was sitting in front of the bookcase.
Jin Yantang hurriedly got up and came to the two of them, helped Shang Chengyuan and Shang Kelin up, and said, "Father-in-law, eldest brother, don't be polite, please get up quickly!" ”
Shang Chengyuan stood up respectfully, and Shang Kelin looked faint.
Jin Yantang sat back in front of the bookcase, and when the two of them sat down in front of the desks on his left and right, Fupu asked the palace maid to show the two of them tea, and then withdrew from the imperial study with the palace maid.
When everyone left, Jin Yantang frowned slightly, looked at Shang Chengyuan and said: "Father-in-law, I didn't mean to treat you like that in the court, but the situation forced me, I have found out that the household department communicated with the military department, and now I want to ask Wen Quanwu, the old horseman, to spit out the disaster silver, I'm afraid the people in the disaster area can't wait." ”
Seeing that Jin Yantang was still concerned about the people and worried about the country and the people, Shang Kelin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then said: "Your Majesty, since you know that the old thief Wen harbors evil intentions, why do you still hold him like this?" Just check him out! ”
Hearing this, Shang Chengyuan immediately glared at him and said, "I really praise you for being stupid, then Wen Quanwu dares to collude with the household department to do such a thing, do you think people are not looking for a good scapegoat?" Didn't destroy the evidence? Fabricate at will that a grass coward was robbed on the way to transport disaster silver, and the two of them will be able to push the charge of corruption clearly! ”
Jin Yantang shook his head, his eyes were slightly gloomy: "Now among the six departments, it seems to be headed by Wen Quanwu, and it doesn't hurt for me to hold him for the time being, but the secretary of the ministry must be replaced, and the foundation of the country should be based on the people, Zuo Xiang is right, only by reusing talents can the people appease the people!" ”
When it comes to business, the imperial aura on Jin Yantang's body is natural, and he is not angry and arrogant between his eyebrows.
is as noisy as Shang Kelin, but he doesn't need to be reminded by the left phase to stop the sound.
Zuo Xiang nodded, and said thoughtfully: "Although Your Majesty has been on the throne for three years, the cancer left over from the previous dynasty has been deeply rooted, and now we have pulled out a lot from the edge. ”
As he spoke, Zuo Xiang showed a leisurely smile on his face.
Seeing this, Jin Yantang's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Does Zuo Xiang have an idea in his heart?" ”
Shang Kelin also looked at him in surprise and said, "Father? ”
Just as a few people were discussing, they suddenly heard Fupu's voice outside the door and said embarrassedly: "Concubine Chen, Your Majesty is now discussing with the minister inside, your Tang slave will first put the hall hot for you, and when Your Majesty is done, the slave will send it in for you, okay?" ”
Concubine Chen? Isn't it Shang Kelan?
Shang Kelin suddenly looked overjoyed, and turned to look at Jin Yantang expectantly: "Your Majesty, can you see Concubine Chen?" ”
On the side, the left phase moved his fingers slightly, although his face was not obvious, but he still couldn't hide the joy in his heart.
At this time, Shang Kelan's quiet and lovely voice came from outside the door: "Then you can hand over this soup to Your Majesty, this palace can't share your Majesty's worries, and that's all you can do." ”
Immediately afterwards, Fupu said: "Eh, the slave will convey the mother's heart, the mother will go slowly!" ”
