Looking down at Xiao He, who was doing 'self-examination' with grief on his face, Liu Yingzong expected that 'Xiao He would cooperate with him and set an example for hundreds of officials', and looked at Xiao He's gaze, and couldn't help but feel a touch of respect.

Xiao He's overtures to himself, Liu Ying could naturally see it.

But Liu Ying can also see that the 'review' made by Xiao He is definitely not saying it and pretending!

Prime Minister Xiao He really feels that Zheng Guoqu has been in disrepair for many years, and he has to bear a lot of responsibility!

Not to mention that over the years, the Han Central Committee, which even the capital Chang'an has no money to repair, can provide much help to the repair and maintenance of Zheng Guoqu, regardless of whether Xiao He should be responsible for it.

Xiao He's responsibility of 'whether he should be responsible or not, I will take the initiative to carry this pot' is enough for Liu Ying to temporarily put down all his plans and gestures, and worship Xiao He with reverence!

"The pillar of the prime minister's country, worthy of being the head of a hundred officials and the first marquis of the founding of the country!"

Without hesitation, Liu Ying couldn't help but put her hands behind her back, and a touch of embarrassment welled up on her face.

"Ran Gu thinks that Zheng Guoqu has been in disrepair for a long time, and it may not be the responsibility of the prime minister."

"Since Ji weekend, the princes of the world are divided into hundreds, and the world before Qin is divided into seven; Later Qin unified the universe, and the second died ······"

"Qin annihilated, and first there were Xiang Yuyu meat people, and then the princes with different surnames were chaotic in the eastern part of the country."

"The world has been in war for hundreds of years, and it can be said that life is in ruins, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt."

"The father should respond to the way of heaven, establish the Han Dynasty, give the people Tianjue, and allow the people to rest and recuperate; However, the princes with different surnames made chaos in the Kanto region, resulting in wars and disputes that are still endless in the world. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Ying let out a long sigh leisurely, and then looked at Xiao He with appreciation on his face, and only nodded.

"In the past ten years, Xiao Xiangli has been in charge of affairs large and small, and has shouldered the raising of food and ordnance needed for the army."

"The treasury and internal treasury are empty, and it is not easy for Xiao Xiang to be able to deliver all the grain and grass to his father; Even if Zheng Guoqu is in disrepair, it is also a helpless move······"

Looking at Liu Ying looking at him, with a sincere and respectful gaze, Xiao He only felt warm in his heart.

But even so, Xiao He still lowered his head with a little shame, and bowed his hand to Liu Yingwei, but did not say anything more.

And from an angle that Liu Ying couldn't see, looking at the interaction between Liu Ying and Xiao He, everyone in the hall nodded again and again, and cast their appreciative eyes on the figure standing on the imperial steps, and the figure still looked a little thin.

"Compared with Your Majesty, the family seems to be more benevolent than benevolent, and there is no need to be harsh?"

secretly compared Liu Ying with Liu Bang, the Son of Heaven, and everyone nodded with approval.

- Regardless of Liu Ying's father, just this respect and generosity for Xiao He is enough for the hundred officials in the palace to see the prototype of a benevolent monarch from Liu Ying!

Liu Ying seemed to be unconscious of the admiration on the faces of the hundreds of officials and courtiers, and only walked down the imperial steps with a smile, helped Xiao He back to the seat in the middle of the imperial steps, and comforted Xiao He to sit down, before coming to the center of the imperial steps again.

"Xiao Xiangshen thinks that a hundred officials are the first, and he is willing to give out one hundred and twenty private slaves, and he will not accept the money of the orphans."

"However, Xiao Xiang is not rewarded, it is a high wind and bright festival, and you don't have to be like this."

With the usual expression, Liu Ying cleared her throat slightly.

"As the so-called gentleman says, it is difficult to chase a horse."

"Although Lone does not dare to set himself up as a 'gentleman', he is willing to follow the example of a gentleman."

"All courtiers and officials, every private slave out of the house, one day of work in Zheng Guoqu, will be paid 100 yuan!"

Re-emphasizing that he did not have the intention of 'free labor for nothing', Liu Ying turned his head sideways with a gentle smile and looked at Yang Chengyan, who was the first in the western seat.

"After the court is over, all the courtiers and officials who are willing to give out private slaves should bring slaves to the palace in exchange for payment."

"I also set up a book in the Shaofu Mansion to record the geometry of the private slaves offered by the Hundred Officials and Marquis."

After saying that, Liu Ying raised her head again, and when she looked at the hundred officials in the hall, her face was slightly grateful.

"Treat your father's class teacher, and you should dedicate this 'loyal minister' book to bring all the princes, please take credit to your father and emperor in person!"

After that, Liu Ying was the only one to bow his hand to the hundred officials in the hall, and then returned to his seat with a light smile.

And the juice Fang Hou Yongya, under the disdainful eyes of the hundreds of officials in the hall, returned to that corner that belonged to him.

There was silence in the hall for a moment, and another doubt couldn't help but appear in the hearts of the courtiers and officials in the palace.

-- The renovation of the Zhengguo Canal required 60,000 laborers; In addition to the 30,000 places that Liu Ying forced the Shaofu to claim, there are also 30,000 people!

Can the private slaves of the courtiers, officials, and nobles be enough for these 30,000 people?

Thinking like this, everyone couldn't help but look at Xiao He, who was sitting in the middle of the imperial staircase, still with a little shame on his face.

As the head of the hundred officials, Xiao He has already claimed the quota of one hundred and twenty people, which can actually be regarded as a reference for the rest of the ministers.

As the prime minister, Xiao He has 120 people, and all the meritorious marquis and nobles who have more than 5,000 households should be about 100 people.

But this does not mean that the hundred or so courtiers in the palace can come up with about 100 slaves!

The one hundred and twenty domestic slaves that Xiao He took out, that are 10,000 households in Yuxian County, and they can collect at least 200,000 stone corn in a year just for taxes!

With these tax outputs, Xiao He can raise hundreds of domestic slaves without blinking an eye, and there is no pressure at all.

If Xiao He didn't have those 10,000 households?

- Although the prime minister is known as the food Lu ten thousand stones, in fact, the annual fortune is only four thousand stones!

According to the annual ration consumption of more than 20 stone per person, as well as the consumption of clothes of almost the same value, Xiao He can afford to raise a hundred slaves at most, even if he uses all his prime minister's fortune to keep slaves.

In this way, the courtiers and officials in the palace, those who have feudal food should take Xiao He as a reference.

If Xiao He eats 10,000 households and produces 120 slaves, then the marquis of 5,000 households will have at least 60 people.

As for the officials who did not seal the country and only lived on their money······

Feeling the gaze that looked at him, Yang Chengyan couldn't help but turn his head a little puzzled.

When there was a touch of clarity on his face, Yang Chengyan nodded slightly, straightened up, and bowed his hand to Liu Ying.

"At home."

After a little bowing, when Liu Ying looked at him, Yangcheng Yan smiled a little shyly.

"The minister is the grace of His Majesty's knowledge, and the nobility of Jiuqing should be a slave for a hundred people······"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the hundreds of officials in the hall couldn't help but tighten!

I saw that Yangcheng Yan turned his head around: "However, the minister has no Xiao Xiang's ten thousand households, only eats two thousand stones of Jiuqing's Lu, and his family is meager, and there are no slaves······

Hearing this, the hundred officials in the palace couldn't help but relax; Uh, looking at Yang Chengyan's gaze, there was also a little resentment.

- Yang Shaofu, let's talk, can you not gasp for breath?

Who's to scare people to death!

Hearing Yang Chengyan's words, Liu Ying couldn't help but smile: "It's okay." ”

"The young government and the best of their ability is."

Seeing Yang Chengyan arching his hand with gratitude, he said: "In this way, the minister will go out of the house, and the male slaves who are fifteen years old are a total of seventeen people······"
