Chapter 43: The Perfect Counterattack
"First of all, I still have to say that I have worked hard for you, in order to cause trouble for me, you have used almost half of the power of the entire imperial court, it is really hard work, I think it is a few more bowls of ginseng soup. ”
Jun Nan Oak said that it was hard for you, but there was no trace of gratitude in the words, but the taste of ridicule and disdain became more and more intense, as long as anyone with a little bit of brains could hear it.
"It's just that the reasons and excuses you come up with are really terrible, and I can't raise any interest in wanting to go all out, but in order to reward you for your hard work, I'd better fight back. ”
Jun Nan Li walked around the middle of the main hall, his eyes swept over the many ministers of the four princes and the prime minister, his eyes were full of disdain and disdain, and his tone was full of ease, and he seemed to stand out from the crowd in this cold hall.
"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince said that I formed a party for personal gain, but as a national teacher, I am in charge of state affairs, and it is a matter of course for me to discuss matters with the ministers, so how can I say that I have formed a party for personal gain? As for communicating with the Four Highnesses in private, it is even more nonsense, you must know that since the birth of the Fourth Highness, I have been to the residence of the Fourth Highness, may I ask if anyone in the court has ever seen me have a private meeting with the Fourth Highness?"
Saying that, Jun Nan Oak also looked around at the ministers in the main hall, wanting to find out the person who had "seen" himself and the four princes in private meeting, but the people who were swept by Jun Nan Oak's gaze lowered their heads one after another, as if looking for ants on the ground, seeing this, Jun Nan Que was not disappointed, but continued to speak.
"If you want to communicate privately, it is better to say that it is more appropriate for the Fourth Highness to take the initiative to find a minister, in the past, even the Fourth Highness who had never made a false appearance to me in the court, but in the past few days, I don't know why I have frequently run to my teacher's mansion, I think even my best friend has not been so frequent, dare to ask His Royal Highness what is his intention?"
"And if you want to talk about forming a party for personal gain, the four highnesses are the most suspicious of forming a party for personal gain, thinking that on the birthday of the fourth highness's side concubine, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces have gone more than half, and the gifts received are more than three years of state taxes, dare to ask the fourth highness what explanation do you want to make?"
Saying that, Jun Nanli stared at the face of the fourth prince with blazing eyes, wanting to see if he could tell the reason, but after seeing that the emperor also looked over, the mouth that the four princes wanted to open was closed, but their faces turned black all of a sudden.
Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but when he saw that the four princes were forced to retreat by the emperor's gaze, Jun Nanli had to sigh secretly in his heart, but then he no longer cared about this matter, but continued his own argument.
"Speaking of the famine in the south, I would like to ask Tobe Shoshu why there was a famine in the south. ”
Seeing Jun Nanqi's gaze turned to himself, Hube Shangshu's eyes suddenly dodged, and his body began to tremble, seeing the fate of the four princes, he didn't think that he could be as lucky as the four princes, you must know that he did not have the identity of the emperor's heir.
"The state treasury allocates 30 million yuan every year for water conservancy construction in the south, which is used to prevent floods and droughts, but this year is just a small drought, but it has suddenly caused such a huge famine, dare to ask where the money allocated by the imperial court every year goes, is it filled by some people!"
Jun Nanqi's tone became more and more stern, and when he finally said the words "fill his pocket", he cut gold and iron like a sword out of the sheath, and suddenly hung on the head of Tobe Shangshu, as if he was going to cut someone in half the next moment.
Hubu Shangshu was forced by Jun Nanqi's words and finally softened, collapsed to the ground, and fought up and down with his eyes and teeth, because the money of previous years was intercepted by him, so that the local water conservancy facilities were only in name only, and now they have been poked out, and they are already unforgivable.
When the emperor saw the appearance of the household book, the anger in his heart was suddenly aroused, but he didn't expect that there were people under his eyelids who dared to be corrupt, and the corruption was still related to the country's fundamental agricultural and water conservancy funds, which resulted in the current state turmoil, and if it was not handled well, it would be a spark.
Subsequently, the emperor ordered the Hubu Shangshu, who had been paralyzed to the ground, to be taken down and tortured severely, and demanded that it be investigated to the end, and all the officials involved would be punished by the public.
At this time, the other officials did not dare to speak, even the sound of breathing was faint and inaudible, for fear that if they made a little noise, they would be the next unlucky person, after all, the one above this court was completely clean, and there were some gray places more or less.
It's just that Jun Nanli didn't feel it, and he still opened his mouth to continue his topic, looking at this momentum of not killing all his opponents and vowing not to give up.
"Even though some people's hands and feet are not clean, I still think of a way to deal with the current crisis in the midst of my illness. ”
When the emperor and his ministers heard the way to save the country, they all pricked up their ears at once, wanting to see what kind of whimsy this person who had once supported the whole country by himself would have to save the country from danger once again.
"Now that the famine has taken shape, even the distribution of relief food can only be a drop of wages, so if we want to truly solve the famine, the most important thing is still to build water conservancy. ”
"So my method is to work for relief, with food as salary, to gather the victims to engage in water conservancy construction, so that not only can the disaster relief, but also solve the problem of the disaster victims gathering to revolt, and more importantly, as long as the initial construction of water conservancy facilities can be put into use, it can completely catch up with the autumn rice planting time." ”
"As a result, the disaster relief food only needs to be supplied for one quarter, and then the disaster area can restore its own food supply, and at the same time, after the initial water conservancy is established, the construction of large-scale water conservancy facilities can be started, and a number of important water conservancy projects can be completed in one fell swoop by taking advantage of the low labor cost during the disaster. ”
Listening to Jun Nanqi's extremely confident words, combined with the flat look on his face, everyone looked at him as if he was looking at a fairy, no matter how difficult it was, he could easily solve it in his hands, just like a trivial matter, he never changed his calmness and calmness, even the enemy could not deny his talent.
"Wechen has put the disaster relief plan on paper, a total of one hundred and eight volumes, has been bound and sealed, and is waiting outside the palace gate by the palace guards, the total amount of food for disaster relief, the number of officials and the explanation of the relevant water conservancy projects are recorded in detail, and only need to be ordered one by one according to the above content. ”
After the emperor listened to Jun Nanqi's method, where was he still in the mood to take care of the previous matter, he was already impatient in his heart, and hurriedly ordered: "Announce their audience!"
