The emperor was satisfied with Yang Su and Pei Shiju's proper handling, and issued a clear decree that night, and all the ministers who participated in the construction of the canal were rewarded.

Among them, Yang Su's reward is the heaviest.

The emperor knew that he was not a woman, and he didn't value wealth, so he actually rewarded him with his mount, and also gave him a pair of jade wrenches, a pair of eight-stone carved bows, and a set of treasure armor. The civil and military nobles in the court were stunned.

In comparison, Pei Shiju's treatment is not as good as Yang Su.

But Pei Shiju has been tempered and tempered several times, and after a few speculations, he also realized what kind of political signals the emperor is releasing this time, and he is clearly torturing the Manchu courtiers, especially the prime minister Gao Xi:

"What do you think of Yang Su as this left minister?"

This is clearly a wrong option.

Your Majesty is too suspicious, and finally pressed a gourd, how can you tolerate another scoop? Especially at this juncture, the left prime minister Tang Yong is about to resign, and all forces want to fight for this position, and the DPRK and China will not be peaceful.

The emperor probably also wanted to take this opportunity to observe the reaction of the ministers, especially the prime minister Gao Xi.

Your Majesty wants to know, who wants to fight? Where are the boundaries they can reach?

If Gao Xi said that Yang Su could be the left minister, His Majesty would not praise Gao Xi, but would only be suspicious of this strong and reluctant prime minister, and even more dissatisfied with his behavior of demanding power, Gao Xi could only veto, and only veto!

The next day, Gao Xi sprayed at the Son of Heaven on the throne:

"Your Majesty has rewarded Yang Su so heavily, how can this be the reason to love your courtiers? Yang Su is indeed extraordinary, but after all, he is too young and angular, and the young dignitary is still not satisfied and wants to be promoted to prime minister?! The minister dared to ask His Majesty, when he made new contributions, to the point where there was no reward, His Majesty could still grasp it when he was there, but how would the heir of the prince deal with himself? ”

As soon as these words came out, not only the ministers were surprised, but even Pei Shiju, who was standing in the corner and observing coldly, quietly changed his face.

Gao Xi is so bold!

The emperor was silent for a long time, and tapped lightly with his two fingers, although he had a straight face, all kinds of unspeakable emotions flashed in his eyes, but he didn't see a trace of anger:

"Gao Qing's family is too serious, I never look at age and background, besides, I remember that Aiqing is not a few years older than Yang Su, according to the Qing family, shouldn't I use you as the prime minister?"

Gao Xi lowered his eyes, bowed to the Son of Heaven again, and then said solemnly:

"Your Majesty does not dislike the ministers for being young and humble and use the ministers, the ministers are grateful, but the words of the ministers come from the bottom of their hearts, and there is no selfishness!"

Gao Wei stroked his forehead with one hand, he had a headache, and then waved his hand and said:

"Recently, Zuo Xiang has been feeling quite unwell, and he wants to find me to resign, I am having a headache about who can take over Tang Yong's power and responsibility, I originally thought that Yang Su was energetic and capable, and he might be competent, but you didn't allow it.

"Okay, I'll listen to you this time, but since you vetoed my choice, you have to return my choice, Aiqing thinks... Who is going to do this left-sided suitable? ”

Hiss~

There was a sound of cold wind in the hall.

This dialogue between the monarch and the minister is so straightforward, so straightforward that there is no concealment, so straightforward that it is almost absurd!

But it is also full of wit, and every conversation and word between the two sounds faintly hidden in the shadow of the sword.

The ministers of the DPRK and China quietly raised their ears but did not dare to raise their heads, for fear of being killed by the pond fish.

What exactly does Your Majesty mean? Gao Xi is actually favored like this? Whoever is going to do this left phase can make Gao Xi decide in a word?

Pei Shiju looked quietly and took in everyone's expressions:

The political novices who had just entered the DPRK looked incredulous, while the expressions of the political veterans were much more subtle and exciting.

The ministers who didn't deal with Gao Xi put on a posture of watching the play, waiting to see how Gao Xi would end, and the ministers who were standing in the same boat with Gao Xi pinched their sweats one by one, for fear that this awkward minister who didn't rub sand under his eyes would do anything to anger His Majesty.

After Gao Xi became the prime minister, he was completely different from the ancestral style of the horse, and from time to time he sang a contradiction, and when it was serious, His Majesty was said to be in a hurry, and almost said that he would drag Gao Xi down and beat him to death, but before the board fell, the will to pardon Gao Xi came.

Gao Xi expressed his gratitude, and His Majesty also followed the stage

Jie forgave him, and then continued to argue for a few days...

Cycle

It's also a strange story in Daqi.

No one can say whether His Majesty trusts or dislikes Gao Xi, and just like this, no one can figure out whether His Majesty's words are true or false. Gao Xi didn't even bother to think about it, and said directly:

"Whoever is the left minister should be judged by His Majesty, and the minister is the right minister, and the text is not involved in martial arts, how can he have the right to speak and recommend?"

Gao Wei didn't want to say anything, and the corners of his mouth smiled, as if he was quite praising Gao Xi's modesty and not overstepping his authority, but his eyes swept towards Su Wei viciously.

At this time, how could he not understand.

Gao Xi's thinking is so clear today, his behavior is so decisive, Gao Wei wants to test him and let him come back, the rhythm of the whole audience at this court meeting simply revolves around Gao Xi, there is no dog-headed military division behind him to give him a counselor military plane, who believes it!

We can't let these two stay together anymore...

Gao Wei quickly made up his mind, he looked as usual, his index finger tapped on the table, and he simply got up and said:

"Okay, who will be the left minister, I have a candidate in my heart, if there is something to do, I will announce my retirement from the dynasty if there is nothing - by the way, Su Qingjia, how did you complete the Cao Liang Law that I asked you to lead someone to draw up?"

The operation mechanism of Cao Yun revolves around three key points: collection, transportation, and delivery.

If Cushman & Wakefield wants to build a transport system that runs through the north and south, it is natural to have a supporting and effective method.

Since the emperor asked, if Su Wei did not give an explanation, it would undoubtedly make him lose a lot of points politically, but fortunately, Su Wei had already prepared, and he unhurriedly took out a thick stack of drafts from his sleeve that had not yet been bound into a book, and said:

"Chen has almost finished, but there are still some details that need to be carefully scrutinized by Pei Hongda."

Su Wei looked at Pei Shiju, and Pei Shiju also looked at him, and the two extremely smart people looked at each other with disgust.

"Then don't rush for now, and then hand it over to me when you're all ready." Cushman waved his sleeves and strode away.

Although the court meeting was dispersed, the turmoil it brought was still continuing, and there were even signs of intensification. For several days after that, the impeachment notes received by Cushman were as high as a hill.

Gao Wei didn't even bother to look at it in the end, and asked the prince to approve it on his behalf, and he explained it clearly, all those who impeached Gao Xi and Bahu criticized "I know", and all those who impeached him for "arbitrariness" and "forming a party for personal gain" will not reply, and will not be sent in the middle.

One afternoon, the prince's hands were sour, and he complained to his father in front of his mother during dinner:

"One afternoon, almost every piece of music was scolding him... The ministers scolded him, and his father was sometimes angry with him, so why didn't he just remove him, everyone was clean......"

Gao Wei took a sip of the hot fish soup and glanced at his son, "Let me ask you, what kind of person do you think can make enemies everywhere?" ”

The prince thought for a long time, and said with some uncertainty: "Bad guy? ”

"Childish." Gao Wei lifted the chopsticks and gently tapped on his son's forehead, and said.

"The personnel in the court, only whether it is right or not, what is good and evil?

"Here, black and white can be reversed, right and wrong can be confused, there is no difference between good people and bad people, those people keep saying that Gao Xi is a female thief, they are high, amazing, ask yourself, are they really so clean?"

"I think the reason why Gao Xi has made so many enemies is not because he did something wrong, but because he did something right, so that these people will attack him like wild dogs who have seen blood."

What kind of career Gao Xi is doing, Gao Wei knows, and Gao Wei also knows what kind of grievances Gao Xi has suffered. For Gao Xi's attitude, Gao Wei has only one, trust, but to beat from time to time.

A small grievance will be endured by Gao Xi, but if someone wants to concoct some trumped-up charges and impose it on him, Gao Wei will not tolerate it.

The prime minister is a virtuous man invited by the king to rule the country and level the world for him, not a servant who grovels at his feet.

The fighting method between monarchs and ministers must also have a bottom line.

Gao Wei sneered and said:

"I'm not confused, some of them are by no means as loyal and simple as they seem, and those who have come up in the ups and downs of the sea are even more treacherous, they are tame to me on the surface, but they are actually mindful

What kind of calculations, desires, etc., are hidden in it... And ambition, who can say clearly? Remember to me that they are your courtiers and your political enemies! ”

"Throughout the history books, the greatest enemies of dynasties are not natural disasters, not alien races, not even insurgents, but corrupt bureaucracy! As individuals, no matter how powerful the ministers are, they can't escape the crushing of the imperial power, but once they gather for interests, the imperial power will be hollowed out by them. Out of control, the power and glory of their bodies are given by the emperor, but not by the emperor. ”

"Do you want to see this happening?"

Cushman & Wakefield was also a member of the bureaucracy in the past, and he would not fail to understand the logic of the bureaucracy.

The ass decides the head.

As an emperor, Cushman was concerned about the perpetuity of his country, the rule of one family and one surname would never change, and the benevolence to the people was only based on this purpose. Officials, on the other hand, consider otherwise.

The world is the emperor's world, and officials are only doing things with their money, and they are more concerned about how to take advantage of the loopholes in the policy to corrupt the power structure of the upper and lower levels, so as to make profits for themselves.

Their biggest characteristic is that they are good at packaging their own personal interests as national interests.

When the policy is in their favor, they add fuel and vinegar to try to maximize their own interests; When the policy is not in their favor, they will turn into the embodiment of "the people", perfunctory shirk, deception, slogans and ***, and even deliberately misread the scriptures.

With the "efforts" of these people, it is strange that the country does not collapse!

Cushman & Wakefield hopes that his son will be a benevolent monarch in the future, but if he is too lenient, he is confused.

So he asked his son again: "What do you think should be done with the deficit case reported by the Ministry of Industry?" ”

"Of course we have to check, and we will check to the end."

Gao Wei smiled and stroked the back of his head, Yu'er is very smart, but he doesn't know how to be a superior person.

Have a compassionate heart, and have a vajra angry eye.

He doesn't know how to weigh this...

Empress Hulu observed her husband's expression and knew that he was thinking about things again, and she didn't want people to disturb the atmosphere of the father and son, so she quietly gestured and retired with the female eunuch.

In the dark night, the palace lamp tied to the bottom of the eaves of the promenade dizzed a peony that poked in the courtyard, and the residual red after the rain has not changed for ten years, and it is still the same as before...
