As soon as these words were spoken.
It seemed to have become a fuse.
The other ministers followed suit, shouting in unison, "Your Majesty, we truly have no better solution. Disaster relief can only be done slowly!"
The real purpose is revealed.
Nearly half of the ministers have revealed their cards.
The meaning is obvious.
His Majesty.
Please stop forcing me.
Those are the only options I have.
I can't think of any other way.
However, despite the reveal, everyone knew that this would definitely anger Yan Jiaoran, so they all kept their heads down, fearing that Yan Jiaoran would notice them, scold them, and make an example of them.
As for the rest, they were not too worried.
after all……
It is not easy for the court to cultivate talents.
No matter what Yan Jiaoran did, she could only make a few verbal criticisms. What else could she do to them?
but!
What they don't know is.
Yan Jiaoran had anticipated their behavior.
And you can say that.
This is the opportunity she has been waiting for!
At this time, he saw that his ministers did not say a word.
Yan Jiaoran, on the other hand, leaned back strategically: "What? They're all well-read, claiming to be famous officials, but in the end, this is all they're capable of?"
"Haha, there's no way?"
"Do you know why you can't come up with a solution?"
The ministers looked at each other in confusion.
A moment later.
They all bowed again in unison: "We are ignorant, please tell us, Your Majesty."
"No, no, no, you are not stupid. You are all the pillars of our Great Zhou!"
"As the old saying goes, 'Those who eat meat are vulgar and cannot foresee the future.' Today, I have finally witnessed that."
"You are all good-for-nothings. You only see things from your own perspective. How can you ever put yourself in the shoes of the disaster victims?"
Yan Jiaoran recalled Qin Yuan's words.
Translate it into your own language.
Then he said:
"You, the officials and dignitaries, all have everything you want, yet you can't even tell the difference between wheat seedlings and leeks. I'm afraid you've never seen a thousand-mile famine, with tree bark and grass roots completely devoured."
"I think you are familiar with exchanging children for food."
"However, to you, those are just four words in the history books."
"But for the victims, it was just a pile of meat in a pot. It was food that kept them full and alive!"
"To survive."
"Those disaster victims even dared to eat human flesh, let alone grass, tree bark, and Guanyin soil?!"
"But what about you? Come on! Tell me, what are you using for disaster relief?"
Ying Wuyong's heart skipped a beat, thinking that there was something wrong with the relief food.
Frightened, he hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, the relief grain is all refined rice sold on the market. I've been keeping an eye on it, and there's absolutely no one pocketing it..."
"Will he have enough to eat if no one lines his pockets?"
"Uh... not enough."
"Can't we mix it with something else? Like, say, coarse rice..."
“There’s not much coarse rice left.”
"Where's the rice bran?"
"Your Majesty, rice bran is for livestock..."
Yan Jiaoran extended her right hand, resting her delicate chin on it, tilting her head and looking at the ministers thoughtfully: "Of course I know that rice bran is for livestock to eat, but I want to ask you, will people die if they eat rice bran?"
"No, I won't die..."
"Can you eat enough?"
“It’s filling, but hard to swallow.”
"The victims are starving and about to eat dirt. Why are you guys still thinking about something so inedible?"
"Isn't keeping them alive the most important thing?"
Yan Jiaoran was so angry that she laughed.
Right now.
She was too lazy to proceed step by step.
Having said that, she felt that as long as these ministers hadn't been kicked in the head by a donkey, they should be able to figure it out.
so.
She simply got straight to the point:
"The problem now is that there is not enough disaster relief food."
"But one pound of rice can be exchanged for ten pounds of rice bran!"
"Take some of the refined rice and replace it with rice bran, mix it with the rest, and add some sand. What do you think, how much disaster relief food will we get?"
