The courtiers listened to the emperor's words, and the whispers that were still there disappeared in an instant.

Is it actually starting to be dangerous to impeach officials?

With the emperor's words, a group of people headed by He Xiangye will definitely do their best to verify all of Li Zhiyuan's everything.

You don't have to think about it to know the result, it's certain that this unlucky guy will be dismissed and investigated.

Everyone wants to be an official, how many people can be purely for the country and the people?

How many Yulu can there be in the imperial court? But the officials are all living well, which official can withstand strict inspection?

Li Zhiyuan took this risk for the vital interests of the Li family, and for the people of the Li family, he did what he did.

However, some of the seven officials who came forward to impeach together today only came to stir up troubled waters because they were asked to do so because of some interests.

Now it seems that the little gift they have received, and the friendship they have gained from mutual benefit, is not worth the risk they have taken.

I had the heart to say something more, and I turned around, but the emperor couldn't give orders, so he directly announced his retreat from the court.

…………

Xia Ke said that he was not involved in his daughter's business, and he really did not participate in specific matters, but it was still necessary to grasp the general direction.

Especially what happened in the court today, it also gave him an extra wake-up call.

Xia Ke returned home that day, and Xia Yan Qingzheng shared a piece of cake with his nephews and nieces.

As one of the most common foods in modern times, the steps of making cakes are known and successful.

But here, it took several failures to stabilize the foam that the egg liquid pumped out.

Of course, the whipping of the egg wash was made by the servant woman in the kitchen.

In this era, when cooking, the egg whites are often frothed, and then made into a certain shape and placed on the soup, which mainly plays a decorative role and has no taste.

For example, make the protein foam into a duck shape and float on the soup to make the artistic conception of the prophet of the Spring River Plumbing Duck.

It was precisely because I saw this poetic, but very ordinary, green vegetable soup here that Xia Yanqing had the idea of making cakes.

Milk here is not very easy to buy, but goat milk is still quite common, and the main feed is grass, and the taste of goat milk is also good.

After many trials, the Western-style cake was successful and tasted good. The only pity is that there is no whipping cream in this era, and without the thick and fragrant cream auxiliary, the taste of the cake is still a little worse.

But it's only a little bit off.

Sister Xi was only three years old after the New Year, and she was sitting on the low floor to taste the food, and when she saw Xia Ke coming in, she only saluted Xia Ke on the kang in a proper manner.

Xia Han had already quickly gotten off the ground, and together with Mrs. Jiang and Xia Yanqing, he gave Xia Ke a salute.

Xia Ke waved his hand, let them take care of themselves, and went inside to change into court clothes.

came out and glanced at the table, and couldn't help laughing: "Eat this again, haven't you gotten tired of eating yet?" ”

Sister Xi had already returned to the kang, and when she saw Xia Ke sitting on the couch, she hurriedly brought over the plate with a small piece of cake and said, "It's delicious, grandfather also eats it, this is reserved for grandfather." ”

Xia Han handed over a pair of chopsticks and explained, "Grandmother said that you can eat less, as long as it doesn't affect dinner." Grandfather, you also eat a little less, this time, it is even better than the last time. ”

Xia Ke took all the filial piety of his grandchildren, put it aside, and said with a smile: "It's better for you to eat, grandfather is too old to eat this sweet and greasy thing." ”

While talking, the two Xia Zixi brothers entered the house, followed by the Yang family and the Gao family.

The ancients were not good at this, they understood too much. When the son and daughter-in-law came in, they still saluted in a proper manner before they sat down.

Xia Zixi asked: "Father, I heard from my colleague that I was talking about glass in the court today." Is there such a thing? ”

This is Xia Yanqing still doesn't know, "Is there any?" Do you still need to discuss this matter in the court? It's a bit of a fuss."

Yang saw that her husband was talking about serious business, and the two little ones had already finished eating a small piece of cake, so they hurriedly stepped forward to beckon the two to go to the ground.

Mrs. Jiang didn't get involved in their affairs, and said to Xia Ke: "Master looks at the hour for a while, don't talk too long." The meal is about to start, and our mothers will go to the canteen first. ”

Xia Yanqing also waved his hand to the two small ones, indicating goodbye in a while.

Watching them go out, Xia Ke told him what happened in the morning today.

Xia Zitang immediately smiled, "This Li family, I probably want to save the glass business of the North-South Cargo Airlines, right?" But I didn't expect to be sent down so simply by the emperor this time. ”

Xia Zixi smiled and said, "Probably the emperor has long seen that several big families are not pleasing to the eye, and taking advantage of this opportunity can really weaken the power of the family in the court." ”

Xia Ke nodded approvingly.

Xia Yanqing didn't care about this, she asked: "Father, did the emperor finally say that we should make new glass or glass products, so do you want to enter the palace?" ”

"It should be, for the sake of prosperous commerce and trade, but also for the sake of the treasury and many other factors, the emperor is quite willing to support your business." Xia Ke paused and continued, "It's just that this glass business, if you really want to do it all over the world, so that medium-sized people can use glass, I'm afraid that the wealth accumulated by this business will be too much." "Maybe it will be too much for the imperial power to be jealous.

Xia Ke didn't say it thoroughly, he asked Xia Yanqing, "Do you understand what your father meant?" ”

Of course, Xia Yanqing understood that as soon as Xia Ke said this, she immediately remembered Shen Wansan, who was a huge wealth during the Zhu Yuanzhang period.

Not only was there a lot of money, but it was also a great deal, and he had to give money to the soldiers of the whole country.

The true situation of the matter at that time is unknown, but the vast majority of people believe that Zhu Yuanzhang is not down-to-earth, and a businessman's money can pay all the soldiers in the imperial court......

…… If this special thing is used to rebel, wouldn't it be able to gather enough troops to resist the imperial court in minutes, and maybe even rebel against the soldiers of the imperial court with silver.

Is this damn thing back? It must be destroyed.

Then, Shen Da Rich Man was tragic.

Xia Yanqing nodded obediently: "Understand, take me to make glass money in the past few years, sit firmly in the position of the leader in the glass industry, and then spread out some glass making methods, so that everyone can get a piece of the pie." ”

Xia Zixi nodded secretly, although his little sister grew up in the countryside, she was broad-minded and extremely open to the trade-offs between gains and losses.

Xia Ke was pleased: "It's good that you can have this idea, no matter what kind of skill, you can let more people master it in order to pass it on." The silver is not earned by our family, and there is too much suspicion in that way. ”

Xia Zixi said: "Don't worry, the current glass industry has just started, it has not yet formed a scale, and the production process is not stable enough. As Xiaomei said, she has secured a leading position in the glass industry, transferring glass technology, or directly transferring the workshop. ”

Monopoly business is not easy to do, especially in the era of imperial power, it is a big risk, which is not what Xia Yanqing wants.

She hurriedly nodded her head.
