Chapter 180 It’s useless to read
Most people may not understand the reason, but the people in the Ministry of Revenue know it best after learning it.
Knowing that the emperor is preparing to allocate funds for disaster relief again, the people in the Ministry of Revenue gathered around Minister Zhao and held a small meeting:
"Lord Zhao, what do you think about this disaster relief?"
The people in the Ministry of Revenue, led by the Minister of Revenue, naturally act according to Minister Zhao's expression. If
Minister Zhao wants to oppose, the entire Ministry of Revenue will follow suit.
If Minister Zhao agrees, then they can avoid singing against the emperor.
The emperor's face is not related to the snow disaster,
but it is getting uglier day by day. In sharp contrast to the emperor, Minister Zhao's face is getting darker day by day.
The money spent from the treasury is getting bigger and bigger.
In the past, with such a funding method, the national treasury would have been emptied long ago.
This is true, and Minister Zhao has a legitimate reason to advise the emperor to stop.
No one knows the affairs of the Ministry of Revenue better than him.
Even the emperor should listen to his opinions more.
The problem is that the court has more glass business this year?
The more money the emperor spends, the more glass makes.
This results in the emperor's money being spent as if it was not spent, and Minister Zhao has no reason to look for the emperor.
Minister Zhao has no place to use his skills and cannot show his ability. His existence is as if he does not exist.
How can Minister Zhao tolerate this?
Hearing his subordinates insisting on talking about something else, Minister Zhao directly took the book on the table and threw it at the man:
"What ideas? What ideas can I have?"
"After the court has added the glass business, the emperor is really confident. If he wants to do something, he doesn't need to go through our Ministry of Revenue."
"The emperor said he wants to transfer money, do we dare not give silver?"
"There are so many silvers in the national treasury, is there a tael of it that you earned?"
Minister Zhao was particularly angry when he said the last sentence.
Because this sentence was also the point where the emperor looked down on Minister Zhao, and it was also the point that Minister Zhao was angry with himself.
Before the glass, Minister Zhao really thought that there was so much silver in the world, why was it so difficult to earn it?
Why did the national treasury have to be so big, and there were so many places in the Yong Dynasty that needed the national treasury to allocate funds?
This was simply an unbreakable vicious circle.
Now that he had the glass business, Minister Zhao was sure that his previous cognition was not his illusion.
The Great Yong Dynasty had silver, and all this silver was good. It's just that I can't make money...
So, why can Zhu Xuntao
, a little girl who has never been to school, do it? He is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the top scholar in the imperial examination more than ten years ago, and a man of great learning.
How could he not be better than Zhu Xuntao? !
The Crown Prince and Xiao Jingzhan could answer this question of Minister Zhao without Zhu Xuntao's intervention.
Minister Zhao put all his thoughts on how to consolidate his position and how to climb up. He
never put his mind on serious things, thinking about how to increase the silver in the national treasury and contribute to the people of the world.
How can such a Minister Zhao compare his talents with Zhu Xuntao?
"I know my mistake. "
After enduring this retort from Minister Zhao, the others dared not speak anymore. Anyway,
when the court was in session, if Minister Zhao objected, they would second him, and if Minister Zhao did not speak, they would remain silent.
In the end, Minister Zhao would certainly not make things difficult for himself by picking on the emperor during his glorious moment.
People all over the world were praising the emperor for being a good emperor, but he was the only one who said that the emperor's behavior was inappropriate,
unless he wanted to take off the official hat on his head.
How could Minister Zhao, an old fox in the officialdom, not understand such a simple truth?
Therefore, the entire morning court was the emperor's home turf, and everyone had to listen to the emperor's orders and kowtow to do it.
After the court session, the prince met with Xiao Jingzhan: "Mother is indeed like us and can hear Zhu Xuntao's voice. "
Xiao Jingzhan was not surprised, as this was the result he and the prince had expected:
"How is the queen now?"
After all, there must be a process to accept such a thing.
"Hehehe..."
The prince sneered and said nothing. He did not forget the look on the queen's face when she looked at him yesterday.
All this was caused by Xiao Jingzhan and Zhu Xuntao.
Angry, the prince told Xiao Jingzhan everything that the queen had heard from Zhu Xuntao yesterday about what happened in the first life:
"My mother has an idea. She wants me to marry the daughter of the Wei family like in the first life, so as to paralyze the chief minister of Wei."
"And then pass false news to the chief minister of Wei through the daughter of the Wei family. "
Xiao Jingzhan lowered his eyes and thought deeply. The matter of the Crown Princess had been delayed for too long.
If he wanted to secure his position as the heir to the throne, the Crown Prince must not only marry the Crown Princess as soon as possible, but also let the women in the Eastern Palace give birth to a child for him as soon as possible.
This child certainly cannot be born by the daughter of the Wei family.
Therefore, with no other choice, this is indeed the solution he and the Crown Prince could come up with.
"Crown Prince, what do you think?"
"I refuse."
Xiao Jingzhan asked directly, and the Crown Prince answered happily,
"My current situation must not be as difficult as the first life that Zhu Xuntao said."
"Now, father is a wise monarch praised by the people, and father is very happy."
"Others don't know, but father knows that all of Zhu Xuntao's affairs were arranged by me.
"If I hadn't been so brave as to recommend Zhu Xuntao to my father, whether it was glass or a kang..." "
With only the ministers supported by my father, which one of them could they produce to benefit the people of the world and stabilize my father's country?"
So, on the surface, all the credit belongs to the emperor, but the prince has also received many benefits.
Recently, the emperor has assigned a lot more memorials to the prince, and it is obvious that he has reused the prince.
If this continues, the possibility of the prince ascending the throne will be greatly increased.
This kind of tangible benefit is invisible to ordinary people, but the prince can feel it most deeply.
The prince is also a beneficiary, and he does not compete with the emperor for those praises on the surface.
"My father's prestige among the people is high, and this is a loss. I am afraid that the Wei chief minister and his party are worried about this matter."
"Marrying the daughter of the Wei family is definitely not my only choice."
But apart from the daughter of the Wei family, the prince couldn't decide who to choose for the time being, so he could only delay it for a while.
"Prince, it won't be delayed for too long."
Xiao Jingzhan was worried about the prince,
"The emperor's prestige is rising, how can the chief guards and their party sit and wait for death."
"It's impossible that the prince will be forced into a dead end by the chief guards and their party, and then close his eyes and point to someone at random, right?" "
Prince, this matter should not be postponed any longer, you must make a decision early."
