Chapter 368 Shock
It’s noon, is it before noon or afternoon?
He should be glad that his master didn't say to change it to night court. Oh, that's impossible, because as soon as the night falls, the man will surely be eager to report to his wife!
So to be precise, morning, noon, and evening, only in the afternoon do you have a little time? ?
Xiao Lezi, "..."
No, sir, I became the emperor not to dominate the world, but to be more shameless and clingy to my wife, right?
Huangji Palace.
The court officials had been waiting for a long time, and the expressions on their faces at this moment could only be described as eager!
Although I knew that this person was unscrupulous before he ascended the throne, today must be his first morning court after ascending the throne, and it is a good time for him to show his power. However, I didn't expect that for Governor Ning, oh no, for the current emperor, it is not as important as accompanying his wife!
All the civil and military officials didn't know what to say for a moment!
Everyone stood there until their legs were numb, and then they heard shouts from afar, "The Holy Lord and the Queen have arrived!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the sound. No matter what, at least they were here!
Everyone hurriedly kowtowed to the two figures approaching, saying in unison, "Long live our Emperor! Long live our Emperor! Long live our Empress!"
Xiao Tu looked at the group of people in the hall who were full of resentment. With her fox eyes drawn, she glanced at the man beside her and said, "You've been so late. Why don't you wake up quickly?"
Ning Cuo held her in his arms and sat on the dragon throne. He swept his lazy eyes over the crowd and said, "My dear ministers, please stand up."
"Thank you, Holy Queen!"
Everyone stood up and began the morning report process.
Because the new emperor ascended the throne, in addition to the usual government affairs, there was also a national celebration to demonstrate the emperor's grace, such as amnesty and tax reduction, and a series of issues needed to be asked for instructions.
Xiao Tu sat and listened for a while, and then his attention was attracted by the stack of folders half a person's height on the dragon table in front of him.
She couldn't help but laugh when she saw it, then she picked up the book at random and opened it to take a look.
Well, the whole article is written in flowery language and earnest words, but after reading several books, it is all flattering nonsense. No wonder someone is so annoyed by reviewing memorials!
Perhaps she could tell Ning Cuo about some of the ways in which government agencies in later generations could handle affairs quickly and effectively, and help him make time to bother her!
Xiao Tu smiled and curled her lips as she thought, then she opened another memorial and glanced at it casually. Her long eyebrows raised. This memorial was different from the others. It was a red book and came from the East Factories in various places. Then she read several more in a row.
These are all secret reports from various places. In some places, there is a severe drought and no harvest, and officials are deceiving their superiors and subordinates. In some places, there are floods and people are displaced. They have gathered in the county and are likely to cause riots at any time.
In some places, corrupt officials oppress and exploit the people, and some government officials and soldiers turn into bandits, specifically abducting women and merchant caravans. There are quite a few of these cases, and the people are full of complaints and unbearable suffering!
The old emperor really deserved to die. With the country governed like this, if he didn't die at the hands of Ning Cuo, he would sooner or later become a king who lost his country.
No wonder Ning Cuo managed the government with just one word: killing. Why keep these corrupt officials alive if he doesn't kill them?
Xiao Tu put down the memorial and looked at the officials who were still discussing a general amnesty. He suddenly said, "Since you want to show the emperor's grace, then exempt the grain tax for the poor in the world for ten years!"
All the court officials who were talking in the hall looked at her in shock when they heard what she said!
