I saw that all the officials were lined up neatly on both sides, and the atmosphere was solemn and dignified.
Seriously.
Zhuang Zhou couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
But thinking that Li Er was protecting him, he calmed down a little.
Li Er climbed onto the dragon bed and looked around at all the officials.
All the officials bowed in unison:
"Your Majesty!"
Li Eryi waved his hand:
"Let's discuss the matter!"
All the officials then returned and sat on the ground.
Only then did Zhuang Zhou realize that the court meetings before him were completely different from what he had seen in movies and TV dramas.
There is no need to kowtow three times and nine times.
Between the monarch and his subjects, it is sufficient to bow as a gesture of respect.
When discussing matters, they all sat on the floor.
Like Zhuang Zhou, he even sat cross-legged on the ground.
No one cares about him at all.
The atmosphere is obviously much more comfortable.
That’s all!
All the officials cast curious and scrutinizing glances at Zhuang Zhou.
Obviously, I didn't expect to see this person here.
Zhuang Zhou smiled faintly and nodded slightly as a response.
Then, Li Er asked Zhuang Zhou to come forward and turned to the officials and said:
"I had a long chat with the Earl of Zhuang County last night, and I can say that I benefited a lot from it!"
Li Er raised his hand and continued:
"Zhuang County Earl proposed a five-year plan to promote the development of agriculture, industry, transportation and other aspects of Datang.
I have considered this plan and believe it is extremely far-sighted and will surely help our Tang Dynasty reach new heights."
As soon as these words came out.
There was a sudden burst of discussion in the court.
Some officials looked at Zhuang Zhou curiously.
I want to see what is so special about this young man that His Majesty has praised him so much.
Some looked doubtful.
Obviously, there are reservations about this so-called five-year plan.
Li Er frowned slightly when he saw this, and raised his voice and said:
"I know that reform is always difficult and requires everyone's concerted efforts.
But I also believe that as long as our ruler and his subjects work together for the future of the Tang Dynasty, we will surely be able to create a brand new era of prosperity! "
After saying that, he looked at Zhuang Zhou and motioned him to continue.
Zhuang Zhou took a deep breath.
Damn it!
This is much more stressful than a meeting.
But now that things have come to this, I can't let Li Er down.
So he began to elaborate on the contents of the five-year plan in detail.
Including improvements in agricultural technology, planning of industrial development, promotion of transportation construction, etc.
The more he spoke.
Zhuang Zhou also began to calm down.
The words were also clearer and more powerful, which moved the officials present.
As Zhuang Zhou finished his story, especially his description of the land tax system.
The discussions in the court gradually died down, replaced by a solemn atmosphere.
Good job!
This reform is really bold!
