Jun Lingyun glanced at the courtiers below.

"Zhong Aiqing thinks, how should we make decisions about the Northern Barbarian Country?"

He thought that these courtiers must be given some opportunity to express their opinions, so as not to gain a reputation as an authoritarian dictatorship.

The courtiers were excited and moved. It's not easy, it's rare!

The new emperor had been on the throne for more than a month, and he finally knew that he had something to discuss with them.

Since the new emperor ascended the throne, they all have to feel that they have become decorations in the court. Finally, I have the opportunity to speak, but I have to think about it.

The courtiers looked at each other, thinking about the words of the talented gentleman Feng. Ten miles back and return to normalcy?

Prime Minister Cao Cheng took the lead in replying:

"Your Majesty, the Northern Barbarian Kingdom must have seen that our Yunxiao Kingdom was getting stronger and stronger, so it didn't dare to invade rashly. It's all the emperor's way of governing the country! The minister thought that the emperor had just subdued Xizhao, and there was a lot of waste waiting to be revived, so we could take a breath of relief, recuperate for a few years, and then make plans. ”

The courtiers nodded in admiration, worthy of being Prime Minister Cao Cheng from the left and right, and his words did not leak.

not only complimented the emperor for governing the country, but also put forward a plan that can advance and retreat.

said that he would not fight, but he did not say that he would not fight at all. said to fight, but didn't say to fight now. No one can fault it.

Unlike Lord Zhou, the secretary of the military department, he talks a lot.

"Your Majesty, there is a big drought in various places this year, and the Northern Barbarian Country is no exception, I am afraid that the Northern Barbarian will be temporarily restricted. As long as it is not destroyed for one day, the Northern Barbarian Kingdom will not give up. We should plan early and never suffer from future problems. ”

"Okay, what's left to play?"

With a single sentence, Jun Lingyun ended the discussion of the matter of the Northern Barbarians. The hearts that made the other ministers eager to try just stopped in the same place.

And Jun Lingyun, the word "good", has always been concise and to the point.

In the end, Prime Minister Cao Cheng said it well? Or, is it good that the military department is still in the book? For the Northern Barbarian Kingdom, is the emperor planning to recuperate? Or are you going to take advantage of the victory and chase after it?

Before the courtiers could figure it out, they saw that Chu Wenhong had already come out of the ranks and started the next thing.

"Your Majesty, this is the list of officials who have been found to have bent the law for bribes in this investigation of unjust and wrongful cases, and I ask the emperor to take a look at it."

Father-in-law Fu stepped forward to take it and sent it to Jun Lingyun's hands.

The other courtiers lowered their heads a little. This kind of thing affects the whole body. I am afraid that a fire will burn on myself.

Jun Lingyun took the roster, looked through it, and ordered in a cold voice:

"Deal with it strictly!"

His strict punishment is to cut off the livelihood of these corrupt officials on the roster. A roster becomes a book of life and death.

The ministers in the court are all in danger, and when the emperor is still the crown prince, he has already killed decisively. Now that he has ascended the throne as emperor, his majesty is even greater.

They should be careful to examine themselves everywhere, and they must not be found to have done anything wrong at this juncture. That's going to be a head-scratcher.

Jun Lingyun then issued another imperial order:

"All unjust and wrongful cases that have been ascertained, issue notices to redress the wrongdoers and restore their reputations! Return the confiscated property. In addition, the imperial court issued compensation to show appeasement. ”

"The emperor is wise!"

Where did the courtiers dare to say anything about this matter, as long as there was no one on the list.

Nosy, I can't say that in the end, I was also on the roster.

Only Tobe Shangshu has a headache. They also have to spit out what they have eaten in their stomachs, and they have to pay compensation. Long before the new emperor ascended the throne, the treasury was already about to bottom out.

Now Xizhao's side also needs them to help, and in the next three years, I am afraid that they will not be able to collect much tax.

The emperor is not a family, and he doesn't know how expensive firewood and rice are.

He glanced sideways at Chu Wenjin, and saw that his expression was relaxed, and he was not worried at all. Sure enough, it was the emperor's relatives who came in.

Chu Wenjin, the head of the household, is not in his position all day, and he doesn't know how to worry about the household at all.

I am a household secretary, but my life is really hard, in a disaster year, I can't increase taxes, how can I fill the treasury?

He still remembered that his predecessor, the head of the household, had collided with Jun Lingyun, who was still the prince at the time, because of the matter of silver, and he almost died.

As a lesson from the past, Tobe Shangshu closed his mouth in the end.

How do you know, Jun Lingyun's next sentence is:

"Xizhao is now a part of our Yunxiao Kingdom, treat the people of Xizhao equally, and first allocate 500,000 taels of silver to the king of Xizhao to help him revive Xizhao."

Tobe Shangshu closed his eyes, he is really a crow's mouth, nothing to think about Xizhao.

"Emperor, Emperor!"

He couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward and fell to his knees. If you don't say it at this moment, it will be a crime of dereliction of duty if you can't complete the task.

"The emperor has just ascended the throne, he doesn't know the treasury, and he is already empty. The household department is really unable to transfer out 500,000 taels of silver. I hope that the emperor will see it! ”

Jun Lingyun glanced at Hubu Shangshu. Lack of ability is not a great sin.

Originally, Chu Wenjin planned to take root in the Southern Flame Country, but now, the situation has changed, and he no longer needs to leave his hometown to live.

"Chu Shilang."

Hearing Jun Lingyun's roll call, Chu Wenjin hurriedly stepped forward.

"The minister is here!"

"You might be able to do what I just told?"

Chu Wenjin didn't expect that Jun Lingyun would skip the Hubu Shangshu to ask him, and he also glanced at the top boss who was kneeling on the ground, and still replied truthfully.

"Back to the emperor, the minister can do it."

After all, the person above is his brother-in-law, and he doesn't have to obey his boss like an ordinary official, for fear of being put in small shoes.

It's just that as soon as he said this, not only the head of the household department looked up at him in shock, but even the other courtiers gasped.

The treasury is empty, how can they not know it?

Not to mention 500,000 taels of silver, the treasury is now afraid that even 100,000 taels of silver can't be taken out, right?

Can't, like last time, call on businessmen to donate, right?

The same trick, once it may be useful, and again, no one is a fool, what is the use of spending money to buy fame twice?

Hubu Shangshu was even more indignant.

"Chu Shilang, don't talk nonsense, boasting about Haikou at this moment, you can't do it when the time comes, but it's a crime of dereliction of duty."

Chu Wenjin didn't say anything more, anyway, the emperor asked, and he answered truthfully, which was enough. For others, there is no need to explain too much.

Jun Lingyun was satisfied. He knew that Chu Wenjin was a genius.

This matter will be handed over to Chu Shilang to handle. I have always been fair and just, appointing people on the basis of merit, as long as this matter is done well, the post of the head of the household department is Chu Shilang's. ”

Hube Shangshu was startled, and he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

He studied hard for many years before he was able to enter the imperial examination. Could it be that his career path has been cut off?

He is a scholar, not an official, what else can he do to support his family? A large family will not starve to death with him?

Tobe Shangshu was about to cry, he was dead anyway, so he might as well argue for himself.

"Emperor, Emperor! Wechen has studied hard for ten years, served in the household department for many years, and has been conscientious, and he does not dare to make any mistakes. There is no merit, there is also hard work!

Chu Wenjin did not take the imperial examination, and he joined the household department, less than a year ago, he was able to live in the post of the secretary of the household department. Wechen is not convinced! ”
