Chapter Seventy-Four: Seeking Que and Criticizing (2)
Everyone present didn't expect that a servant of the Ministry who never showed a mountain dew on weekdays would show such a terrifying momentum! Niu Yuan looked at the scene around him, his eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes were blank.
Fortunately, Liu Zhennian was not surprised, he still looked through the documents on the table, and never looked up: "Chen Shilang's words are very interesting, and he will continue." If you have any opinions, just mention them to everyone, and you don't have to hide them. ”
"Obedience." Comrade Chen hurriedly saluted into the distance, and his eyes no longer looked at Ye Yongjia, "Don't think what Chen said is false, there is a reason for this." If you take the land route, the distance is long, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there are many mountains and mausoleums in Fujian Province, and it is necessary to build roads and bridges, and the cost is not calculated. If we wait for the roads to be repaired, we will have to transport them from the south to the north, tossing back and forth, and I am afraid that Suidi will have fallen! ”
After hearing these remarks, all the ministers turned their heads to look at Niu Yuan, wanting to see how he reacted; But the latter has been holding his head and has long been speechless.
"What about shipping?" Liu Zhennian ignored them and continued to ask.
"Not to mention shipping, the number of ships berthed in Fujian is not much, and we can only charter merchant ships and civilian ships, and we need more ......."
"It's good if the government directly expropriates it, why bother to talk about rent?" Ye Yongjia seemed to have caught a flaw, but his eyes were still gray, expecting his response.
Comrade Chen smiled: "Of course you can." However, since Lord Ye prides himself on loving the people, he doesn't want Fujian to complain, right? ”
"I ......" Ye Yongjia was full of shame, so he had to hold back his words.
When Comrade Chen saw him retreat, his eyes returned to Liu Zhennian: "Prime Minister, the sea route is still cloudy and sunny, and ships are damaged from time to time, and the risk is not small. ”
"Prime Minister, Chen Shilang is simply justifying himself!" Niu Yuan saw that Ye Yongjia was so embarrassed, and he couldn't help it, "Just requisitioning merchant ships, why not hinder the people's livelihood?" Besides, the sea route is not good, you can take the canal! ”
At this time, Liu Mian took over: "First, the maritime merchants of Fujian Province have made my dynasty very profitable, and once they requisition thousands of large ships, they will not be able to do business at sea; Second, the canal needs to be transported, and it takes a lot of manpower and material resources just to protect the boats, and adding so many ships occupies a large area of space, and even the grain is not easy to collect! Both of them are moving the whole body for the sake of a hair, and Lord Niu doesn't want to think about it, and he plans to shoot the case in a word, so bold! It's no wonder that I'm confused about the affairs of my household. ”
"Let's stop and collect our temperament." Gao Jizhi pulled Jie Wenwu and the others and said.
"Stop what? Can't stop. Liu Zhennian's deep voice revealed majesty, "Quarrel clearly." ”
Of course, Niu Yuan knows that his side must not be stopped, but the situation is already one-sided, how to justify? I can only listen to them first, and I moved the camera. "You have a point, you speak first."
"You ......" Liu Mian was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but was held down by Gao and Chen.
"Your Highness, Prime Minister," Gao Jizhi said, "I have asked everything that should be asked about this matter, and everyone is angry again, and if they continue to quarrel, it will be difficult to keep the direction and say something that hurts the harmony of their colleagues." As for whether to approve or not to approve this performance, it is up to the two to make a decision. ”
Liu Zhennian was a little hesitant, so he glanced at Yan Wen on the left: "Yan Xiang, this idea is not easy for my father-in-law, I just want to ask your opinion." ”
Yan Wen bowed his head and replied: "This is just a discussion of the ministers, whoever speaks reasonably will be allowed to be impartial, just like what Ye Shilang played the day before yesterday." As for whether it is reasonable or not, it is all taken from the sacred, and this sparse delivery can also allow the emperor to have a comparison, which is a very good thing. ”
"Ye Shilang, Mr. Niu, what do you think?" Liu Zhennian nodded, and looked at the two of them again.
The two of them saw that Liu Zhennian had made up his mind in his heart, and Yan Wen had such a statement of harmony and mud, and it was useless to argue, so they replied in unison: "We are from Vice Minister Yan's opinion." ”
Liu Zhennian immediately signed the document and handed it over to the two eunuchs, who presented it to the prince.
Jie Wenwu only straightened his stomach and raised his neck at the moment, looking at the prince triumphantly, seeing that the latter was stunned for a while, he hurriedly said 'oh', took the paperwork, took out the seal, held it in the air and said, "Do you have any objections?" ”
Kneeling down like a mountain, he shouted in unison: "The ministers are all subject to public opinion." ”
The crown prince then pressed the seal down heavily.
After the meeting was dismissed, the prince personally sent the documents to Liu Zhennian, which is basically a practice in recent years, and it is too commonplace. Liu Zhennian heard him praise a few words against his will, 'the prime minister is loyal to the country' and 'Liu Gong is hard in charge of government', so he didn't even give in and reached out to take it.
"Slow!" Yan Wen patted Liu Zhennian's thick arm behind him, "This concert should be sent by the prince." He laughs.
Liu Zhennian didn't understand what he meant, so he reluctantly moved his hands forward.
The prince's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he refused in a loud voice: "Where is this!" Everything is a monarch to talk about, how dare this king violate the laws of this dynasty! ”
"Definitely. The crown prince is now in prison, and his majesty should be properly erected. As a minister of the society, Duke Liu should work for the country, and the prince should know this well. Yan Wen said, and gave Liu Zhennian a look.
"Wei Chen dares to disobey the law, but His Royal Highness is the prince of the country, and the relationship is very important, so he should be elected as soon as possible to support the hearts of the people." Liu Zhennian made it convenient this time.
The prince was a little happy, and hurriedly thanked Liu Zhennian, and went to the sedan chair with the book.
Liu Zhennian seemed to be preoccupied, and only walked to a place where no one was with Yan Wen before asking. Yan Wen replied with a smile: "This performance is related to the success or failure of the new policy, if you hand it over to the emperor directly, then Your Majesty has no reason to refuse, you can only make a will immediately, and there is danger." Fang Jin made a procrastination trick and handed it over to the prince, between father and son, he could dispose of nature without worrying about anything. The emperor must want to wait, but once the will is not approved, the new policy of the prime minister cannot be conclusive, so they are the only ones who are in a hurry. If you annoy Your Majesty, it is logical to clean them up. ”
"How do you clean it up?" Liu Zhennian saw that he was so resourceful, so he had to ask for advice.
"I have no right to speak in the new policy, so it is more appropriate to ask the prime minister." Yan Wen's words were as short as possible, and the words were like gold.
"You've always been so ambiguous!" Liu Zhennian smiled helplessly.
The prince thought sharply on the sedan chair, and his heart became more and more uneasy because of this good thing that fell from the sky. He watched the lantern sweep to the gate of the East Palace in the distance, and thought, 'Why don't you ask Lan Yuan first, so as not to fall into the trap of the Liu Party......
The lantern shone forward again, but suddenly heard a snapping sound, and the prince poked his head out and said, "Go to the back garden in a while, and go back to the East Palace first!" ”
