Early the next morning, Concubine Xiao was awakened by Xu Jing's actions, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that the person beside her was already wearing a dragon robe that only the Supreme was qualified to wear.

"Are you going to go to the morning court today?"

Concubine Xiao was a little surprised, looked at Xu Jing and asked cautiously.

"Naturally, there is still a good show waiting for me today, how can I miss it?"

Xu Jing sneered and said lightly.

Concubine Xiao opened her mouth, although she didn't know what Xu Jing was talking about.

But I can also guess that nine times out of ten it is inseparable from Xiaofu.

"The concubine sends your majesty."

Concubine Xiao hurriedly put on her clothes and sent Xu Jing to the door.

"Alright, let's go back."

Xu Jing waved his hand, signaling Concubine Xiao to leave, and then strode towards the chariot and went straight to the Jinluan Palace.

At this moment, the sky has just been polished, and hundreds of officials are already waiting outside the palace gate for the palace gate to open.

In the crowd, those officials with official rank to the second rank all looked serious, and their palms were full of sweat.

It seems that they are not going to meet the emperor this time, but to Huangquan.

"Start the morning court!"

As Xu Jing sat on the dragon chair, Gonggong Cao shouted loudly, and the voice of the eunuch outside the door sounded together.

Immediately afterwards, the palace gate slowly opened, and the hundred officials walked in step by step along the same road and came to the Jinluan Palace.

"Ministers, see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

Baiguan leaned over and shouted at Xu Jing on the dragon chair.

"Get up."

Xu Jing looked indifferent and waved his hand to signal everyone to get up.

The officials stood up tremblingly and faced Xu Jing with their heads bowed.

"There's something important to report today."

Xu Jing held the handle of the dragon chair and asked lightly at everyone in the audience.

"Your Majesty, the Liaodong snow disaster has caused serious flooding in the Qianjiang River, and the embankment needs to be rebuilt.

An old man with white hair walked out quickly and replied to Xu Jingzuo.

"This matter should be handed over to the Ministry of Households, why did you say it at this time?"

Xu Jing's eyes were slightly cold, and his tone was a little heavier.

"Your Majesty, the minister has reported to the household department many times, but they have all been returned. The minister had no choice but to make this decision. ”

The old man lowered his head and replied seriously.

"Where is the book of the household?"

Xu Jing's expression was slightly cold, and he glanced at the crowd and whispered.

"Minister.... Minister! ”

Lin Changhe wiped the sweat on his forehead, trembling and walked out of the preoccupation and said.

"Tell me, why doesn't the Ministry of Households allocate funds?"

Xu Jing looked at this "own family" coldly and asked sharply.

Xu Jing's voice sounded like a bell in the hall, which frightened the hundred officials and trembled, lowered their heads and dared not speak.

"Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers are unwilling, but they can't!"

Lin Changhe complained bitterly in his heart, and he could only answer seriously at this moment.

"Can't? Tell me, if you can't come up with a satisfactory answer today, then you can take off the official hat of the head of the household department. ”

Xu Jing's eyes were cold, and his tone was a little heavier, and he didn't mean to take care of the bloodline at all.

Xu Jing's indifferent attitude frightened all the officials present.

Lin Changhe is a well-known "princeling", and he can be said to be Xu Jing's most trusted subordinate.

At this moment, Xu Jingdu categorically has no intention of giving half of his face, which is enough to see that this emperor is ruthless.

"Your Majesty, the reason why the minister did not approve it is because the huge amount of silver required by Lord Dai is 500,000!"

Lin Changhe didn't expect that Dai Xinghe would actually refer to himself in front of Xu Jing.

At this moment, Lin Changhe, who was already desperate, no longer concealed it and loudly said all the 1510 amounts that Dai Xinghe wanted.

"Five hundred thousand? Lord Dai, is this true? ”

Xu Jing stared at Dai Xinghe coldly and asked.

"Report to Your Majesty, this matter is true. This is not an exaggerated number, but the amount required is indeed so huge. ”

Dai Xinghe held his head high and replied.

"Five hundred thousand? How dare you say that! ”

"This Dai Xinghe is so bold, he dares to talk nonsense in front of His Majesty."

On one side, the hundred officials were also shocked when they heard what Dai Xinghe said, and then whispered.

"Dai Xinghe, do you know how much 500,000 is a share?"

Xu Jing's eyes were cold, staring at the local parent official and interrogating him coldly.

"The minister knows that 500,000 is enough for 100,000 people to spend half a year safely, and it is enough to build 300 Mongolian schools in one continent. Enough to equip eight thousand soldiers. ”

Dai Xinghe 1510 told what he knew.

"Since you know that this is a huge amount of 500,000, I would like to hear why it takes 500,000 to build a dam?"

Xu Jing nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask.

"Your Majesty doesn't know that the previous terms of this official have been full of private pockets and greedy for ink. As a result, the dikes in all parts of the Qianjiang River are already broken. ”

"The 500,000 yuan that the minister asks for is not to build one embankment, but more than 30! Each levee needs to be completely rebuilt from start to finish. ”

"The minister does not dare to guarantee that from now on, he will sit back and relax but dare to guarantee with his life that there will be no floods in Qianjiang within a hundred years!"

Dai Xinghe 1510 explained loudly.

"Yes, I can promise you. However, you also have to give me a military order, and if something goes wrong, I want you to be headed! ”

Xu Jing looked carefully at this old man who was over half a hundred years old.

Xu Jing has some understanding of this person.

Dai Xinghe was originally a genius in the past, and he became famous at the age of only twenty and became a champion.

As soon as he became an official, he was appointed as the prefect of Dongzhou, and his future was almost limitless.

But this person has a hard temperament, and he doesn't give Xiao Dang half of the face at all, let alone have the intention of being in the same league with him.

So much so that in the next few decades, he was pressed to any petty official in Beijing who was less than seven grades.

It was only recently that he was appointed by Xu Jing as the prefect of Liaodong.

The reason why Xu Jing believes in Dai Xinghe is because of his fortitude and integrity.

If it were someone else, Xu Jing was afraid that he would have already been expelled from the Jinluan Palace, beaten with a hundred rods, and stripped of his official position.

"More than 200 households in Liaodong thank you, Your Majesty!"

Dai Xinghe heard that Xu Jing agreed, and hurriedly knelt down and shouted at Xu Jing.

"Your Majesty, there is simply not that much money in the treasury."

Lin Changhe cautiously reminded Xu Jing at the moment.

"You don't have to worry about this, I have my own means."

Xu Jing waved his hand and signaled Lin Changhe to ignore the matter.

At the same time, Xu Jing calmly glanced at the rest of the people present and asked lightly, "How?" But is there anything else? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister does have something to do!"

At this moment, Xiao Longbow stepped forward quickly, saluted and said.

The corners of Xu Jing's mouth raised a sneer, he knew that today's highlight was coming: "Say." ”

"Your Majesty, now that there is chaos inside and outside the Great Cadres, the minister thinks that the prime minister should be recalled, especially to assist the ministers."

Xiao Longbow said awe-inspiringly.

"Do you think so?"

Xu Jing glanced at everyone present and asked coldly.

The officials who had already made an appointment with Xiao Longbow to stand for him were swept by Xu Jing's eyes at this moment, and they all shrunk their necks and trembled, a little trembling.
