Chapter 249: The First Thing I Did When I Took Over the Ministry of Works, I Refute the Emperor's Decree! (5/5)

  Chapter 250: The first thing to do when he took office in the Ministry of Works, refute the emperor's holy decree! (55)

  Palace.

  Ministry of Industry.

  Yan Lide, who will be the chief supervisor and the waiter of the Ministry of Works, is working hard.

  He had to carry out the edicts sent from above, and he had to review the drawings and accounts submitted below, and he was as tired as a dog.

  So much so that at this moment, he didn't even notice that someone had walked in, but he just said that it was his subordinates who came.

  Just listen to him casually say:

  "Go, pour me a cup of tea, I'm dying of thirst."

  "Uh...... Good. ”

  The man was slightly stunned, but he nodded happily, and turned around to pour tea.

  Yan Lide raised his eyes and saw the face of the person who came, and he was so frightened that he almost lost his soul!

  "Ministry...... Ministry?! ”

  He hurriedly got up and exclaimed,

  "It turned out that the ministry was back, and the lower official offended the minister, it's really damned!"

  "Ministry, please keep your hands! Come on, come on, come on your own, come by yourself......"

  Oh, my God!

  He's not a crazy ball! He even asked the dignified department to respect Xu Gong to make tea for him!

  "Oh, it's okay, it's okay......"

  Xu Fenglei didn't listen to him, he had already poured a cup of tea for him, and handed it over with a smile,

  "I'm not here these days, you've worked hard."

  "I'll pour you a cup of tea and treat you, and you should ...... it."

  "Come, drink."

  Yan Lide: "......"

  His hands trembled, and his expression was extremely embarrassed.

  It's not, it's not, it's not.

  Dear mother, this is likely to affect the career!

  "Take it!"

  Xu Fenglei urged,

  "Scalded!"

  Yan Lide: "!! ”

  "Yes yes yes ......"

  He hurriedly took the tea, took a sip in his mouth, and then—

  "Ahem, ahem!"

  "Ahem, ahem!"

  It's a hot throat and eyes!

  Seeing Yan Lide's embarrassed appearance, Xu Fenglei couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

  "Am I that scary? Take it easy, take it easy. ”

  He waved his hand, and immediately sat down on the throne of the hall.

  Yan Lide breathed a sigh of relief, then put down the teacup, picked up a stack of books, and stood in front of Xu Fenglei.

  "Ministry, these are all the things that the lower officials have dealt with in the past few days, and if you don't personally approve them, the lower officials will not dare to issue them."

  He said respectfully,

  "Do you want to read it yourself, or do you want to report it to the lower officials?"

  Xu Fenglei crossed Erlang's legs, sat on the chair and waved his hand.

  "No, you can do it yourself."

  He said casually,

  "I don't need to deal with the little things, you can handle them yourself; You don't need to look for me for major events, you can just report it directly. ”

  "All in all, you do things, I don't worry, it's as simple as that!"

  Yan Lide: "@#¥%......&@!! ”

  After hearing Xu Fenglei's words, his eyes were already widened to the maximum, revealing a dull look.

  This......

  This, this, this......

  He had imagined what it would be like to meet Xu Fenglei countless times, but he never thought of it...... That's what it would look like!

  This is completely a hands-off shopkeeper!

  You're really here to work in the Ministry of Works?!

  After being stunned for a long time, Yan Lide came back to his senses and said with a slight stammer:

  "Thank you...... Xie Buzun trusted, can ...... But there are some things that the lower officials really can't make up their minds, and they must be approved by the ministry himself. ”

  "For example, these two letters, one is sent by Shangshu Province, and the other is personally issued by His Majesty, you have to see them yourself......"

  After that, he hurriedly handed over the two letters, for fear that Xu Fenglei would run away directly.

  "Okay."

  Xu Fenglei nodded slightly,

  "Let me start by saying that I'm not out of business...... I'm going to do more important things, and I'll leave these trivial matters to you. ”

  As he spoke, he began to read.

  "Yes yes yes ......"

  Yan Lide nodded like a chicken pecking rice,

  "The ministry is busy with affairs, and I have to participate in political affairs, and I have to teach the princes, and the trivial matters of the Ministry of Industry should not be bothered to be handled by the ministry personally."

  He followed Xu Fenglei's words,

  "The lower officials also know that it is not easy for the minister, so except for the documents sent by the three provinces and His Majesty, the rest dare not bother the minister."

  "This letter from Shangshu Province is about the Turkic invasion, the order to build fortifications inside and outside Chang'an, the Ministry of Household has approved the silver, and it is urgent for our Ministry of Industry to start construction, and it cannot be delayed."

  Xu Fenglei glanced at it a few times and nodded.

  "Approved."

  He said,

  "You immediately arrange to raise craftsmen to build it day and night, this matter really can't be delayed."

  "If there are not enough craftsmen, you take my warrant to the military department to transfer troops to help, and now Du Ruhui is in charge of the military department, and he still gives me face."

  When Yan Lide heard this, his expression suddenly became happy.

  There is a powerful minister, that is different!

  According to the ranking of the status of the three provinces and six ministries, the Ministry of Industry can be said to be the last and the most unpopular department.

  All other ministries can issue orders to the Ministry of Industry to ask for cooperation, but it is difficult for the Ministry of Industry to ask other departments to cooperate.

  On this warrant for the transfer of troops, I sent it to a separate Ministry of Works, believe it or not, and the birds of the Ministry of War are not birds?

  The sewer department ushered in a big guy with hands and eyes, and finally there is no need to ask grandpa to sue grandma in the future!

  "Yes."

  Yan Lide answered, and said,

  "The second is His Majesty's will, which is to build a big palace for the Emperor Taishang, so that the Emperor can spend his old age in peace."

  "Your Majesty asks the Ministry of Works to select a site as soon as possible and give design drawings, and once the imperial court is comfortable in the future, it will start construction immediately."

  Xu Fenglei looked at the will, but he frowned and was silent for a long time.

  "Ministry?"

  Seeing that he didn't speak, Yan Lide screamed again.

  "This will, call back."

  Xu Fenglei said.

  “…… Yes? Yan Lide was stunned and said, "What did you say?" ”

  "I said, call back."

  Xu Fenglei repeated his words again, and snorted coldly,

  "To build a big palace, it will cost at least three million taels of silver, and the treasury is only a few cents now?"

  "Now you have to use money everywhere, not to mention the military salaries needed for wars, in the past two years, disasters have continued in various places, and disaster relief alone is not enough, how can you have the money to build a palace for the emperor?"

  "The money was taken to repair the palace for the emperor, and the sergeants still didn't care? Do the people still care? ”

  Yan Lide shuddered.

  The Emperor's Decree...... Can you call back?!

  "This ...... Maybe Your Majesty will spend part of it every year and gradually complete the construction......"

  His weak word,

  "Your Majesty's will, if the ministry is sent back, I'm afraid it's not good?"

  When Xu Fenglei heard this, he sneered.

  "According to His Majesty's assumption, such a luxurious palace, even if it is fully funded and works non-stop day and night, it will take at least three years, and a part of it will be used every year?"

  He said politely,

  "It won't be done in 10 years! At that time, the old lady and the emperor were almost warped, and they still repaired him as a ghost? ”

  "Once this drawing is designed, it will be a great burden on Datang's finances."

  "So, I don't agree...... You fight back now, the emperor blames it, and I carry it, are you a hair? ”

  Yan Lide: "......"

  "Yes, yes......"

  He nodded his head tremblingly, his heart pounding.

  The first thing he did when he took office was to refute the emperor's decree -

  It's also so exciting! His little heart can't stand it!
