Chapter 125: The Fourth Year of Chengping



"That's natural. Let's talk about it after the New Year is over."

......

New Year's Eve.

evening.

All the civil and military officials in Xianyang City, along with their families, came to Zhaixing Tower for the banquet.

They went up to the corresponding floors according to the hierarchy.

At this time, the so-called "different levels of society" are reflected.

In short, for all officials, this year's New Year's Eve dinner is definitely above standard.

A whole pool of drinks.

There are thirty-six layers of various bacon.

There are also various foods.

In particular, there are more than ten dancers on each floor.

Judging from this situation, it is more than just extravagant to describe it.

According to conservative estimates, this meal tonight alone will cost the national treasury tens of millions of taels of silver.

And that’s just the visible money.

There will be more that we cannot see.

Ying Yuan originally thought that this New Year's Eve dinner would make his reputation a little worse.

All officials and common people would say that they had just enjoyed a good life for a year or two and then began to indulge in enjoyment.

However, after hearing the heartfelt praise from the officials, he realized that he was wrong, and very wrong.

Ying Yuan could still distinguish between daily flattery and sincere praise.

When he was drunk, he couldn't understand why those officials all said that they were wise rulers?

Later, after accidentally overhearing the conversation between Guo Jia and Xun Yu, he finally understood:

"Your Majesty, I wonder how much money this banquet will cost. It's a waste of money and effort!"

"Brother Xun is wrong. In my opinion, this banquet is indispensable.

In other words, in your Majesty's mind, governing the country does not rely on those cruel officials, but on the officials before you.

Your Majesty must clearly tell all officials that the country cannot do without them, so that they will work harder to govern the country.

What's more, over the years, all officials have been frugal for the sake of the country. Your Majesty should let them live a carefree life.

So, no matter how much money is spent on this banquet, it is worth it."

"Hearing you say that, it suddenly becomes clear to me. Your Majesty is so wise!"

Ying Yuan: Damn it, Yingming!

All the good mood tonight was ruined by these two people.

It seems that this world of wine and meat is not very interesting.

The officials still thought they were wise rulers!

grass!

Let’s not have the feasts and wine pools anymore!

The people from the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Eastern Depot did not come because it was Daji's order.

After all, all the officials have come to the banquet, so who will manage the public security in the city?

She doesn't want any trouble to happen during the Spring Festival.

...

The banquet is over.

It happened to be after midnight.

In the blink of an eye.

Then it was the fourth year of Chengping.
