Chapter 035 Chapter 35
Thinking about things, Cheng Yishu closed his eyes and slowly fell asleep.
When he opened his eyes again, it was just dawn. He rubbed his dizzy head and rubbed the head of the system cat beside him speechlessly and said, "Sure enough, in ancient times, people with social phobia had no entertainment."
The system cat turned over, revealing its soft belly, and Cheng Yishu buried his face in it and rubbed it.
After checking the time, he decided that he still had to go to court today since he had only eaten a few melons yesterday.
By the way, I'd like to hint at it and see if Xia Zhang has any intention of attacking Japan.
To be honest, even if he had no heart, he still hated Japan very much.
Throughout the tens of thousands of years of Chinese history, apart from the civil strife, that period was the most humiliating.
The most important thing is that everything from Japan was passed down from here. According to common sense, they should call us dad.
What was the result? Not only was he ungrateful, he also beat his father. What a disobedient son.
Therefore, Cheng Yishu hates Japan very much.
After changing clothes, Cheng Yishu held the cat in his arms, put on the pearl necklace, and got on the carriage towards the palace. Today he brought steamed buns with him.
It is filled with shredded potatoes, fried eggs, boiled eggs, and meat.
One roll was enough for him, and he also brought a cup of milk tea.
After arriving at the seat and eating peacefully, the ministers below were already in despair. No, why did their state teacher come to court again? ? ?
What days are these two days?
The Left Prime Minister was the most desperate. His hair almost fell out last night. All he could think about was Xia Zhang’s “I’ll grant you a marriage, I’ll grant you a marriage.”
When he saw Cheng Yishu, he remembered that His Majesty was going to attack Japan.
The national treasury is empty now. Although glass has been developed, it has not yet been promoted. Oh, and salt.
The salt was also made, and it must be said that the salt was really good. Even he, who was used to seeing good things, was amazed by it.
Snow-white fine grains, without a trace of bitterness, pure salty taste.
And the most important thing is that compared with the previous well salt and rock salt, this saves a lot of cost and manpower.
Moreover, the output has also increased significantly.
But this cannot change the fact that the national treasury is empty, nor can it change the fact that there is currently no money to hire a navy.
Smelling the aroma of the food above, the ministers below were obviously full, but for some reason, they still felt a little hungry.
After licking their lips, they decided to bring their own lunch tomorrow. Eating shows were so appetizing.
After Cheng Yishu finished his meal, the morning court officially began.
Xia Zhang sat on the throne, smelling the sweet scent emanating from Cheng Yishu. He looked curiously at the strangely shaped cup in Cheng Yishu's hand.
Cheng Yishu ignored Xia Zhang's gaze and poured milk tea calmly from the thermos.
Cheng Yishu planned to talk about the affairs of Japan later, after the people below had finished their reports.
Below, a civil servant came up with his board. He knelt down and said, "I have a memorial to make!!!"
Xia Zhang moved his fingers and motioned for him to speak.
The civil official opened his mouth and said, "I want to report to the Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, and the Grand Master of the Taichang Temple!"
The three people whose faces were already not very good looked even worse. They stared at the civil officials below and said, "You'd better not mention what happened yesterday, kid. Otherwise, they will let him know what it means to be full of martial virtues today."
My own kids are still making a fuss about a three-person marriage, so it's better for this person not to bring up other people's business.
Xia Zhang also heard about yesterday's farce, and he found it quite amusing.
He looked at the officials kneeling below and said, "Oh? I wonder what you want to report them for?"
The civil official immediately said, "I want to report them for violating the law and letting them cause trouble!!"
The other three immediately stepped out and knelt down, saying, "I am innocent!"
The three of them looked at that man together, with knives in their eyes as sharp as if they wanted to cut him into pieces.
Sun Taizhu's face turned red with anger. His son really became famous yesterday, but... I will just cry if I say more, so I won't say any more.
His wife told him not to interfere in the children's relationship.
As for the other two, the father couldn't persuade his son, and his son is still making a fuss.
I was already annoyed, and now this guy is looking for trouble early in the morning. I'm so annoyed.
Cheng Yishu almost let out a sound of his tongue as he looked at the scene below.
[Good fellow, they are in a fairy-tale relationship, and you, a demon, are here to oppose it. Are you lawless? No, there is no rule that you cannot marry two people.]
The assistant minister of the Ministry of War straightened up immediately. He looked at the man and said, "How could we be so lawless and allow trouble to happen?"
The Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple immediately responded, "Our child didn't hit anyone, didn't kill anyone, and didn't take the protection law. What's the matter with you? And he's lawless. It's really unfair. We didn't break the law!"
Sun Taizhu snorted coldly and looked at him and said, "That's right, Master Liu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want!"
Lord Liu immediately said, "You are marrying one son to two families, how can this not be lawless! And what about the farce yesterday! Everyone in the capital knows about it!"
Sun Taizhu curled his lips in disdain and said, "Did the law stipulate that a son cannot marry into two families? Besides, how do you know it's just marrying, not marrying? My family also has a son, and anyone can marry him! Besides, yesterday was just a farce! Who else was hurt except my child???"
At this point, Sun Taizhu burst into tears. He looked at Xia Zhang and said, "Your Majesty, please help me! I was wronged yesterday, and today I am being framed by Lord Liu. This really breaks my heart!"
Cheng Yishu stared at Sun Taizhu, who started crying as soon as he said crying. My goodness, this is really... too funny!
Sun Taizhu's friends immediately spoke up to help, and Liu's party was not to be outdone, and the Minister of War also retorted.
It was so noisy down there that it was almost like a vegetable market.
Xia Zhang above didn't want to stop it at all, he even wanted someone to bring some fruit over to eat.
I don't know who it was, but when he came over, he sprained his ankle and fell to the ground, which really stirred up a hornet's nest.
After he shouted "You actually used violence", Lord Liu was punched in the face. Lord Liu slapped another person in the face with his backhand. This made things even more lively. Everyone threw the boards and rolled up their sleeves to start fighting.
Among them, Lord Liu was beaten the worst. By the time Cheng Yishu and Xia Zhang had seen enough, Lord Liu's face had been beaten into a pig's head.
Cheng Yishu pursed his lips tightly, trying not to laugh out loud. Xia Zhang looked at Cheng Yishu and a smile flashed in his eyes.
He turned his head to look at Cheng Yishu and said, "What does the Imperial Master think about this?"
Cheng Yishu coughed twice and held back his laughter and said, "How do you look at it? Just look at it this way. Marriage is a private matter. There is no law in Xia State that prohibits remarriage. And just like what Sun Taizhu said, in yesterday's farce, besides the parties involved, it seems that no one else was injured. It's their own business, what does it have to do with you? The Minister of War and the Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple didn't say anything... Lord Liu, you seem to be meddling too much."
Lord Liu, whose face was beaten into a pig's head, wanted to speak, and the corners of his lips twitched as he moved. He hissed and took a breath of cold air.
Of course he knew it was none of his business, but he couldn't just watch these three families get married.
The Vice Minister of the Ministry of War, the Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple, and the Sun family of Sun Taizhu, these three powerful families joined forces, and the country was doomed.
He closed his eyes and thought that he was done for today.
It's not like there haven't been fights in the court before, but... he felt that something was wrong today, there were so many people fighting, and the fighting was particularly severe.
He retreated quietly and closed his mouth.
Cheng Yishu was very happy.
[Each of them is really full of martial virtues. The way they fight is so awesome. 】
The ministers below were all as quiet as chickens, and none of them dared to say that they didn't want to join in the fun and vent their recent stress.
Especially the Left Prime Minister, who was the most ruthless among them.
Fortunately, the military generals did not take action, otherwise, these civil officials would not be enough to fight against.
Xia Zhang was used to it. As long as he wasn't made angry, he was still a very tolerant person, but it was hard to tell when he would suddenly get angry.
Cheng Yishu blinked and looked down, and began to think about how he should talk about fighting Japan.
[Ah, how should I propose to train the navy to fight against Japan? You know, Japan has mines! There are rich minerals there!! Especially silver mines!! That silver mine is huge! ]
The Minister of Revenue straightened his back instantly, and his eyes turned into symbols of money.
What the hell? Silver mine? Then we must fight against Japan!
He looked towards the generals and winked at one of the young generals, signaling him to hurry up.
This young man is his son-in-law.
After seeing the look in his father-in-law's eyes, what could he say? He strode forward, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
Xia Zhang smiled, raised his chin and said, "Speak!"
The young general immediately said, "Your Majesty! Japan does not respect our country and has evil ambitions. I request that you train the navy to attack our country!"
The left prime minister's opposition had long since dissipated after hearing about the silver mine. After hearing what the boy said, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, our dynasty is not outstanding in the navy, and the problem of ships is difficult to solve..."
Cheng Yishu was almost about to let out a sigh. He was really sleepy and someone brought him a pillow. Wasn’t it his turn to appear?
He immediately said, "Don't worry about the ship issue. I have suitable ships here, but if you want to mass-produce them, Your Majesty still needs to summon craftsmen to study and build them!"
