Chapter 111: Politics in the court
Hearing Zhang Yuan say this, Zhou Caihuang looked a little helpless.
"Why don't I know? But now there is no way. ”
Zhang Yuan was a little anxious: "If you get it according to that group of guys, you can use the silver to buy food to help the victims!" ”
"How much silver does it take to sustain the victims through the famine until next year's autumn harvest?"
"I'm sure there's something wrong with that! Perhaps today's high-priced grain is secretly fueled by some people in the DPRK and China, and they collude with these grain merchants! In this way, he embezzled the disaster relief funds of the Mo Imperial Court! ”
Zhou Caihuang had a headache, looking at Zhang Yuanqun's excited appearance, he couldn't help but be surprised: "What are you doing so excited!" ”
"Nonsense, I can't get excited!"
Zhang Yuan was also angry and ascended to heaven, and he didn't care whether the person in front of him was a princess or not: "These bastards are simply taking the lives of ordinary people to make profits!" How many people will die in this way! ”
"Their conscience bah! They have a fart conscience! ”
Zhou Caihuang felt a little relieved in his heart, looking at this county order that he had forcibly transferred from Pingyang County.
I used to think that Zhang Yuan was a dog official, but in this comparison, what kind of dog official is there?
It's simply a blue sky lord who cares about the people of the common people!
At this moment, Her Royal Highness the princess's impression of Zhang Yuan has been greatly improved.
Thinking of what kind of evil methods this guy often has, he asked with a hint of anticipation, "Then what can you do?" ”
"Grab them all and cut them down!" Zhang Yuan aired.
Zhou Caihuang rolled his eyes: "If it were so simple, I still need to say it?" Kill one and there will be another. ”
"Damn, these dogs!"
Zhang Yuan scolded, and then thought of Fan Wenzheng, who wrote the joy of the world first and the world after the world.
Hurriedly said: "I have a way, don't care about the price of grain first, send a trustworthy official, bring money to find a big grain number with enough strength." ”
"Then release the news that the imperial court is going to collect grain, attracting grain merchants from all over the country to go to the disaster area to sell grain."
"When there is more food in the disaster area, the price of grain will also drop, but the premise is that the big grain number can have enough food to take out and use it for disaster relief first."
"Shen Daqian, a grain merchant from Lingnan Province, has this strength, and I used to do business with him in Binh Duong. This guy has a lot of granaries. ”
Zhou Caihuang's eyes lit up, and then he began to think deeply: "This method may work, my life is ......."
Zhou Caihuang, who almost missed his mouth, looked at Zhang Yuan and changed his words: "Zhang Yuan's palace will be like Your Majesty's advice, tomorrow you go to the Hajj to see you, you come to mention this disaster relief method, and by the way, come to disaster relief." ”
Zhang Yuan was stunned: "I'm coming?" ”
"Nonsense, you proposed the solution, and this palace and His Majesty trust you very much! Presumably you will never be corrupt. With the previous situation, Zhou Caihuang trusted Zhang Yuan very much at this time.
When Zhang Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional, buddy not only became the concubine's male best friend, but also became the confidant of the princess and the emperor.
In the future, this glory, wealth, and power will tilt towards the government and the opposition, and it seems to be stable.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuan nodded solemnly: "I understand, don't worry, princess, this disaster relief will be handed over to me!" ”
As for Zhou Caihuang's sentence, you must never be corrupt, so you were greedy for 100,000 taels of Her Royal Highness the Princess, Zhang Yuan even agreed.
What are you doing with this little money? The faucet said that if you want to be greedy, you will be greedy!
Greedy for those who are rich, this little bit of three melons and two dates, can I see it?
Just kidding!
The next day.
Zhang Yuan came to the palace with confidence to accept the appointment, and since the last time he was impeached, this is the third time he has come to the palace of the court.
The officials were also surprised to hear that the emperor had summoned Zhang Yuan.
Especially the wild old men of the Three Princes.
His face sank, and he didn't want to see this guy.
After the ceremony, Zhou Caihuang couldn't wait: "Gentlemen, yesterday I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess said that Zhang Yuan had a way to relieve disasters, so I specially summoned him to the palace today." ”
"The disaster in the north is serious, for the sake of the victims, I and all the kings should listen to anyone's advice."
"My Emperor Shengming."
The hundred officials began to pat on the back.
Hearing that His Majesty the Emperor let him speak, Zhang Yuan coughed and began his speech.
When he finished speaking, he couldn't help frowning, how could Lao Tzu not even have a person to applaud for so long a day?
Just when he was confused, a cold snort came: "It's just a big joke in the world!" ”
Zhang Yuan looked over and found that it was the head of the household department Yan Gao, and his eyes were very contemptuous at this time.
The other party is not polite, and Zhang Yuan naturally won't give a good look: "Oh? Then may I ask Lord Yan, why is he so disdainful of my Zhang Yuan's disaster relief method? ”
Yan Gao sneered: "The disaster victims are famine, where can you wait for what grain merchants you said to go to the disaster area to sell grain." ”
"And the most important thing to do at this time is to curb the rise in food prices, and the second is to allocate funds from the imperial court to stabilize the affected people."
"Your Majesty! Zhang Yuan's method is clearly disregarding people's lives, ignoring the people in my north, if this is the case, I am afraid that countless victims will die of hunger, Your Majesty! ”
Yan Gao's expression was sad, and he even squeezed out a few tears, which shows that his acting skills are exquisite.
Looking at Zhang Yuan's expression, he was even more angry!
This is natural, the money is not enough, Zhang Yuan came out to stir up, it is strange to be able to give a good face.
Zhang Yuan's seven orifices of anger are smoking, and Lao Tzu cares about people's lives? Your mom is talking about yourself, right? Splash dirty water on Lao Tzu?
Thinking of the county citizens who had starved to death in front of him, Zhang Yuan's anger rose instantly, and he turned his head to look at Zhou Caihuang: "Your Majesty! I see that Lord Yan is so anxious to let the imperial court allocate funds for disaster relief! It's clearly ill-intentioned! ”
"The minister suggested that this household department should be properly investigated, so that some people will not fish in troubled waters and embezzle my treasury silver."
"Bastard! Who are you insinuating about? Yan Gao's eyes widened, he didn't expect that Zhang Yuan, who was the size of a sesame seed, would dare to pour dirty water on himself, the head of the household.
It was a little unbelievable for a while.
Zhang Yuan smiled: "Why is Lord Yan so excited, don't sit in the right seat, did I say you?" Didn't you? Or did you really do something corrupt? ”
"How can this be reasonable, as a member of the imperial court, how can this official allow you to slander like this!"
Yan Gao was anxious: "Your Majesty, Zhang Yuan slandered the ministers of the court for no reason, and he has no respect, so he should be punished with a heavy rod of eighty, please punish Your Majesty!" ”
"Fuck you! When did Lao Tzu slander you? Is there a name for you, Yan Gao, and corruption? Do you know what assumptions, doubts, and guesses are? ”
"Have you read a book? The official bought it, right...... Look at your fat-headed and big-eared food, you may have done something unsightly in the household department over the years......"
The hundred officials were shocked, and looked at Zhang Yuan as if he was swearing words like a cannon.
This guy is stunned!
