Chapter 8: Unfathomable
As soon as these words came out, Weiyang Palace became lively again, and many people immediately jumped out, some were upset for Hai Ruxian, some advocated heavy punishment for Hai Ruxian, and even some jumped out to pat Qin Ming's sycophants, praising him for his wisdom like a torch.
"Silence!" Seeing Qin Ming's brows, Zhang Yong immediately shouted loudly, and the hundred officials also quieted down.
"Descend to the seventh rank of the country's eunuch Cheng Hai Ruxian for the record from the ninth rank prince's mansion!" Zhang Yong read Qin Ming's dictation, and the voice reached His Highness, Hai Ruxian kowtowed to receive the order, and then got up and stood back in the line.
Qin Ming glanced at the hundred officials again, then cleared his throat and said: "On the first day of the palace today, I have to hear that there is a great drought in the north, and the land is thousands of miles, and now the victims need relief, but the treasury is empty, I hope you can contribute to the country." ”
Baiguan was stunned at the same time, he didn't expect Qin Ming to be able to say it so obviously, he simply put his purpose on the table.
Qin Ming didn't bother to cover it up, and directly gave his attitude, there was a big drought in the north, and the imperial court wanted disaster relief, two words, money!
At this time, the hundred officials below blew up the pot, and waved their hands one after another, saying that they were honest and honest, and they had no other money except for Yulu, and they were also powerless for the drought in the north.
"His Royal Highness, the old minister Lu Siming, is willing to donate five thousand taels of silver to help with disaster relief!" Right Prime Minister Lu Siming was the first to stand up, bowed down and said.
"The old minister Li Sanguang is also willing to donate 5,000 taels of silver to help the victims." Li Sanguang naturally would not fall behind him, and he also bowed down and said.
The leaders of the two parties were the first to stand up, and the rest of them could only stand up one after another.
"The minister is willing to donate 2,500 taels to help the victims."
"The minister donated a thousand taels."
"The minister donated five hundred taels."
"The minister will donate a hundred taels."
……
"Keep a record of their pledges." Qin Ming said to Zhang Yong, in fact, without Qin Ming saying it, he had already written down what the hundred officials shouted.
"Retreat!" Qin Ming glanced at him, and Zhang Yong immediately understood and shouted loudly.
The hundred officials kowtowed and bowed: "The prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!" ”
After the early dynasty dispersed, the hundred officials dispersed, and Qin Ming had to go to the imperial study to approve the folds.
As soon as he entered the imperial study and sat down, the eunuch beside him moved a stack of folds, and Qin Ming flipped it over, and there were already Zhu batches on it.
"What's going on?" Qin Ming threw the fold to the corner of the table and asked the eunuch with a cold face.
The eunuch hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Highness spare your life, this Zhu batch was played by Zai Fu and Eunuch Bingbi together." ”
"Which Zaisuke?" Qin Ming's eyes were murderous, the Zhu pen criticism was exclusive to the imperial power, and the right of the eunuch was only to criticize the folds according to what the emperor said, and he did not have the right to write without authorization, and the prime minister had no right to check the folds.
"Lee... Lee Xiang and Lu Xiang. The little eunuch was genuinely terrified.
"Call the eunuch Bingbi to the palace." Qin Ming leaned on the chair and ordered the little eunuch, "By the way, there is also Zhang Yong." ”
"The slave obeys." The little eunuch breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran to call someone.
Qin Ming closed his eyes, rubbed his temples gently, and felt melancholy, this big departure from the dynasty is really a mess, external troubles are imminent, and this internal worry is blocked on his face again, no matter what, he Li Sanguang and Lu Siming will ride on the head of his prince in a few days.
But this is the beginning of the prison country, and he was a waste prince before, and he has no power under him, so it is not easy to compete with those two old monsters.
Li and Lu are not only two prime ministers, but also the leaders of their respective imperial parties, but also the objects of support of several great families, these forces are entangled together, forming a huge power chimera, and it is not an exaggeration to say that power invades the government and the opposition.
It's not time to eradicate these cancers.
Just thinking about it, Zhang Yonghe and the eunuch Bingbi had been called by the little eunuch, and as soon as the two entered the imperial study, they first knelt down and kowtowed: "The prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old." ”
Qin Ming bypassed the book case and walked in front of the two of them, but the two of them were not allowed to get up, and asked condescendingly: "Since the founding of my great departure from the dynasty, the eunuch Bingbi has not had a precedent for criticizing and folding for a long time, how dare you?" ”
The eunuch Bingbi was shocked by Qin Ming's might, he was already trembling, his head was firmly on the ground, and he said: "Back to Your Highness, today's recital was approved by Li Xiang first, and the slave maid was able to check it on behalf of the saint." ”
"Li Xiang?" Qin Ming sneered and asked, "The saint of the Great Departure Dynasty, but his surname is Li?" Which master are you serving? ”
"Slaves don't dare!" When the eunuch Bingbi heard this, he couldn't stop kowtowing, "From the beginning of the saint's physical discomfort, the folds are all managed by Li Lu Erxiang, so the minister's twists and turns are also handed over to the prime minister's cabinet first, and then sent to the imperial study." ”
"Now it's the palace eunuch!" Qin Ming kicked him away, and rolled on the ground for a few times before stopping, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, "Someone!" Abolish your pen eunuch and send it to the imperial horse prison to feed the horse! ”
As soon as the eunuch Bingbi heard the sob, he called for Chitose to spare his life, and then there were Xuanyi guards on both sides who dragged him away.
"Zhang Yong, did my father know about it at this time?" Qin Ming asked Zhang Yong to get up and asked him with a cold face.
"The Holy Lord knew about this, and it was the Holy Lord who approved it and sent it to the Prime ......Minister's Mansion," Zhang Yongzheng explained, suddenly interrupted by Qin Ming.
"What this palace said is that the eunuch Bingbi will do this on his behalf." He stood in front of Zhang Yong, obviously his body was not majestic, but it was like a mountain, which pressed the emperor's personal attendant, and the chief manager of the harem did not dare to raise his head.
"The saint doesn't know .....," Zhang Yong said worriedly.
"That's how you're the boss?" Qin Ming turned around and walked behind the bookcase, and pulled out the Son of Heaven Sword hanging on the screen behind him.
"The slave is guilty!" Seeing that this was wrong, Zhang Yong quickly knelt down and kowtowed.
"You remember this palace, you are just a eunuch, your power, your status, are all given to you by your father, and you will do whatever your father wants you to do!" Qin Ming walked in front of Zhang Yong with his sword.
"Your Highness said yes!"
He put the sword between Zhang Yong's neck and said slowly: "Now my father wants this palace to be the supervisor of the country, if you see this palace, if you see your father, what this palace says, you will do something." This palace wants you to die, then you can't live a moment longer, do you understand? ”
The cold blade of the sword was attached to his neck, and Zhang Yong knew that the prince in front of him was no longer the waste material that was at the mercy of others and handled by everyone.
The current prince is unfathomable!
"Your Highness wants the slave and maid to die, and the slave and maid will be in the sword mountain of the sea of fire from now!" Zhang Yong didn't dare to move, and said in his mouth.
"Good!" Qin Ming put his sword into the sheath, let Zhang Yong get up, and said, "The officials who donated silver to the court this morning, this palace should know the geometry of their family property, and it will be presented to me before the noon court." ”
Qin Ming sneered, at most, donate five thousand taels of silver, right? If he remembers correctly, these ministers live extremely extravagant lives, and a spring banquet alone costs a huge amount of silver, and now it's too late to start pretending to be poor!
Spit it all out for me!
