Chapter 241: Don't be ashamed if you don't understand
Although Leng Lanzhi has stood on top of the court in the past few days, he rarely takes the initiative to participate in the discussion.
She knows what she is, although she has learned some content in all aspects, but she is not deeply contacted, and she is a new person who cannot be new above this court, and rashly expressing her opinions will not show how smart she is, but will only expose her shortcomings.
So most of the time, she listened quietly, learning something from the courtiers' discussions.
Moreover, she can also more intuitively feel the factional disputes above the court.
First of all, it is natural that the princelings headed by the crown prince, Lord Shangshuga of the household department, who has just been promoted, Lord Shangshujiang of the announced government, and a group of old-school generals in the DPRK and China, all support the prince on the surface.
The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites supported the King of Qin.
The Shangshu of the Criminal Department supported the King of Yue.
And the lowest-key military department Shangshu on weekdays, but he can't see who he supports.
In addition to these three factions, a group of Wenchen led by the prime minister was a royalist faction and only supported Emperor Jianliang on the throne.
These Quartet people often quarrel over a trivial matter, and Leng Lanyi felt very fresh at first, but he was very bored after listening to it a lot.
After all, what can be put forward at the DPRK meeting is basically all major matters related to the international people's livelihood.
Sometimes, someone's suggestion sounds very reliable.
However, it is precisely because of the political parties that constructive suggestions are often not implemented.
Problems that can be solved in one day can drag on for three or four days, or even longer.
Not to mention her father, even she felt annoyed.
For example, the question that Pi Langzhong asked her just now -
Last year, Warat was attacked by locusts, which caused them to lose all their food and suffer from food shortages.
Some courtiers suggested that Taifu Temple should come up with a way to conquer the locusts as soon as possible, so that even if the locusts really flew to Shengguo this year, it would not affect the people of Shengguo.
It's just such a thing, and the court is noisy.
Some people who disagree with this move feel that this move is a waste of time, after all, the place where Warat was affected is 108,000 miles away from Shengguo, and even if those locusts can fly, they will not necessarily fly to Shengguo.
And some people fish in troubled waters and want to take advantage of the opportunity to embarrass them.
A few days ago, they all hated Leng Lanzhi.
In particular, there are so many adults who have the mind of luck, thinking that the emperor will not really check, so they have the intention of fooling things.
Unexpectedly, the next day, Gu Zhan's mad dog really sent a 10,000-word review.
The dignified Gu Diansi has written a review, and they can still fish in troubled waters?
As a result, they were immediately fined three months' wages and had to write an additional 20,000 words for review......
Gu Zhan is not here today, they want to see who will stand up for her!
Leng Lanzhi glanced indifferently at the person who spoke: "This palace is extremely true to the majority of people, locust plagues occur every year, even if those locusts will not fly to Shengguo next year, what about the year after tomorrow?" What about the year after graduation? β
The minister smiled: "The princess is too worried, my Sheng country has not seen a locust plague for ten years. Presumably, His Majesty is deeply blessed, and he has blessed my prosperous country to be able to regulate the wind and rain smoothly and not be invaded by evil spirits. β
Someone immediately chimed in: "After all, Tianhai City uses pearl tax as its main revenue, and the princess's eyes will only be on pearls, so she doesn't understand the importance of agricultural taxes and agricultural affairs to people's livelihood." β
The prince felt that what the minister said was very true.
Seeing that Leng Lanzhi was about to speak, he was afraid that his little sister would say something embarrassing, so he hurriedly spoke first: "Jia Luo, farming is the foundation of a country, and you listen with an open mind." β
After speaking, the prince pondered his words carefully and felt that there was nothing wrong.
How can a woman, a pampered princess, understand this?
If she doesn't understand, it's better to keep her mouth shut and don't talk nonsense, otherwise she will only bring shame on herself.
He, who is an elder brother, reminded her to shut up in a subtle way, avoiding embarrassing her and offending people, this time, Jia Luo can always feel his brother's heart, right?
Leng Lanzhi: "......"
Her expression was a little indescribable.
Seeing this, the smug light in the minister's eyes became more and more obvious, but his face suddenly became panicked: "The lower official said the wrong thing, please forgive the princess!" β
Seeing that the minister was afraid that he would be blamed by Leng Lanzhi, the prince frowned disapprovingly: "Jia Luo, look at what you have scared people into?" β
Leng Lanzhi looked at him coldly: "Brother Huang, from the beginning to the present, I only said a word that agrees with the majority of people, right?" Have you ever said that this Lord Pi has not said a word? β
The prince was stunned.
Come to think of it, there really isn't.
Leng Lanzhi looked at him indifferently: "Lord Pi is an official of the Criminal Department, right?" In the criminal cases that the Criminal Department comes into contact with on weekdays, the murderers are not only ordinary people from their own people, but also some murderous villains, and even bullying gentlemen and gentry. β
Pi's complexion changed: "Xiaguan didn't!" β
On the throne of Jinluan, Emperor Jianliang's face was already ugly.
These guys, it seems that a 10,000-word review is not enough for their review!
Leng Lanzhi's hands were folded in front of his lower abdomen, his posture was dignified, but he was to the point: "That is, you only put on this appearance to Bengong, so that people can think that Bengong is the one who bullied people and bullied you in public?" β
Master Pi knelt down with a puff: "The lower official didn't!" Ask Your Majesty to learn from it! Ask the princess for a good look! He had a pale face: "Xiaguan is really thinking about the agricultural affairs of my Shengguo, and he doesn't mean to target the princess!" β
With a cold smile, Leng Lanzhi said expressionlessly: "The thirteen provinces of Shengguo, there are hundreds of large and small cities under it, although Tianhai City in this palace is not the largest city, the annual agricultural tax paid ranks among the top five cities!" β
"It is true that this palace is not good at farming, but there are officials who manage agriculture under this palace, and there are people who are good at farming!"
Her phoenix eyes swept coldly over everyone present, although she was only a woman, her height was not comparable to that of most of the men in the field, but her momentum made everyone dare not look at her.
"Every time Tianhai City implements a new agricultural decree, it needs to be approved by the head of the palace."
"This palace finally knows why Tianhai City can pay the top five taxes with a very small agricultural population, Lord Pi, what about you? What are some useful revenue generation tips you've made? β
He looked around again, and his eyes fell on the faces of everyone in the room.
She didn't say another word, but the people in the room miraculously understood what she meantβwhat are you? Dare to doubt Hongu too!
Among the people she disdained was the crown prince: "His Royal Highness the prince, do you still have any questions?" β
