If a natural disaster occurs somewhere, affecting many people and causing many people to be displaced, the court must provide disaster relief immediately.
Also, any unusual movements on the border between Western Xia and Liao are key areas of focus.
After Lü Yijian reported on the progress of the state-owned enterprise reform, the recent disasters in various regions, and the military developments in the northwest and the Liao Kingdom, Zhao Zhen mused, "It's a good thing that the state-owned enterprise reform has brought over 20 million strings of cash to the national treasury so quickly."
"yes."
Everyone responded.
"Then we will continue to intensify our efforts and strive to promote greater commercial prosperity as Da Sun said."
"yes."
"Regarding the heavy rain in Fuzhou, we urged local officials to properly resettle the victims and rebuild their houses as soon as possible. We also allocated 500,000 strings of cash from the government treasury to purchase supplies and send them to the disaster area."
"yes."
"Although there are unusual movements in the Liao Kingdom, let's ignore them. My eldest grandson said that after the Battle of Chanzhou, there has been no more fighting between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom. I think it's just routine military deterrence."
"yes."
"This year, the Constitutional Yuan must continue to urge all provinces and counties across the country to prepare for spring plowing."
Zhao Zhen announced more than a dozen government decrees in one breath. Now he had learned his lesson and no longer signed written documents or read them himself. Instead, he simply asked Lu Yijian and others to report and handle them verbally, which saved a lot of time.
And although his mind was on the game, he had been in this position for more than ten years and was quite adept at handling government affairs, so he did everything in an orderly manner and no one could find any flaws.
After a while, all the government affairs were handled. Zhao Zhen asked the Constitutional Council to put down the decrees and imperial edicts that had been agreed to be signed today, and wait for him to stamp them with the imperial seal to make them effective.
Seeing that it was almost the last moment and Zhao Zhen would soon be able to continue playing the game, Lü Yijian finally hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, Hanlong has replied."
"oh?"
Hearing that it was Zhao Jun's news, Zhao Zhen barely pulled himself together and asked, "What did Hanlong say?"
"He has already executed Guo Chengyou, and the people of Bozhou applauded."
Lu Yijian said cautiously.
Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Tian Xi has indeed made a lot of mistakes over the years. This result is not surprising."
Seeing that Zhao Zhen didn't seem angry at all, Lü Yijian said, "Hanlong also submitted a painting."
As he said this, he handed the scroll to Wang Shouzhong.
Wang Shouzhong brought the painting to Zhao Zhen's desk and spread it out in front of him.
Zhao Zhen looked at the painting in confusion and asked, "Is this the scene where Da Sun interrogates Tian Xi? What's the meaning of this painting?"
"I don't know what it means."
Lü Yijian stood up, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, we will take our leave now."
"Go ahead."
Zhao Zhen was overjoyed and pretended to get up to see them out. After they left, he hurried back to his desk and turned on his laptop.
Before the laptop screen went black, he glanced at the painting on Zhao Jun's screen again.
There were a few big words written on it: "The government is pleading for mercy."
Zhao Zhen frowned.
When I first saw this painting, I didn’t understand its meaning, but when I looked at it again, I understood it immediately.
"Grandson, you're blaming me for not being able to distinguish right from wrong and for not standing on the side of reason."
Zhao Zhen sighed in his heart.
But he quickly put the matter behind him and started playing the game with his mouse.
He stuck out his tongue and his eyes smiled.
Hehehehe.
The game is still fun.
