After Guo Tianyang finished the second page, the ministers fell silent.
Everyone had their own thoughts at the same time, and emotions such as shock, fear, and disbelief surged into their hearts.
I didn't expect someone could write such a disgusting letter.
I didn't expect Jianjiang to have become so corrupt.
I didn't expect Fang Zheng to be so cruel. In comparison, just publishing an advertisement in the newspaper to criticize himself can be considered gentle?
Unexpectedly...
All in all, the hall is now filled with a weird atmosphere.
Everyone seemed to see an indescribable thing.
A ghost, a ghost with a lewd smile on its face seemed to be wandering around the hall.
It has obviously rolled very far, but it can still do all kinds of things, giving everyone a headache.
Guo Tianyang turned to the third page and was about to continue reading when Emperor Jing spoke up: "Okay, let's stop here."
"What do you think, gentlemen?"
"Do you want me to continue issuing decrees to stabilize grain prices and stop large-scale construction projects?"
Li Yansong immediately knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty! If what Fang Zhengyi said is true, then it is unwise to continue to implement the policy of stabilizing grain prices!"
"In addition, I suggest that Fang Zheng be given the title of governor, so that he can act according to his own discretion!"
"I second this motion!"
Zhang Dongxiang and Zheng Qiao bowed one after another.
A small number of people hesitated whether to second the motion, but after little hesitation they all knelt down and shouted.
Anyone in Jianjiang Prefecture who held a higher position than Fang Zhengyi was beheaded by him.
The so-called prefect was now in name only, and Fang Zheng was the only one left who was actually in charge.
If we send new people there temporarily, I don’t know how much time it will take for them to adapt to the situation again.
Aren't you Fang Zhengyi awesome? If you can do it, go ahead. I wonder who can clean up this mess!
Yang Yingcai knelt on the ground, feeling hopeless.
Just now he was the emperor and was explaining the truth, but now he has been slapped in the face!
And now Mr. Li doesn’t even bother to hide it?
You should promote the virtuous and avoid relatives, you must understand this principle!
Governor? That's a temporary position. How long has Fang Zhengyi been gone? He'll be back in a few months!
I think you really don't want to live a peaceful life!
But at this time he had nothing to say and could only kneel on the ground with a bitter face.
A sharp voice came from behind him: "Your Majesty! I think it is the right time to grant Lord Fang the position of governor!"
"Lord Fang has swept away the chaos, and the people of Jianjiang are all convinced. With Lord Fang's ability, he will surely be able to solve Jianjiang's food crisis!"
Yang Fengfan said with a serious face.
All the Hanlin scholars were kneeling on the ground, and he was the only one standing.
Everyone looked at this pointed-faced and monkey-faced villain with hatred, and secretly cursed him as a traitor!
If you lick the emperor, people will at most say you have no integrity, but you can still continue to have fun.
You licked Fang Zhengyi, but he's not even here. Are you still a human being?!
Yang Fengfan responded with his eyes without hesitation.
As long as I can live a life of wealth and glory by following Fang Zheng, I will stop being a human being!
Emperor Jing looked at the reactions of the people in the palace, sneered, and said slowly: "Draft an imperial decree to confer the title of Fang Zhengyi as the acting governor of Jianjiang, and order him to return to his original post and return to the capital on the day when the grain disaster is resolved!"
"The rest of you, kneel here and think about it for me! Am I wrong, or are you wrong? Think it through before you leave!"
After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and left.
The corner of Guo Tianyang's mouth twitched.
Ah! It seems that the prince has accidentally earned face for His Majesty... I hope His Majesty won't get too angry later.
Seeing Emperor Jing walking away, Guo Tianyang hurriedly followed him with the letter paper.
The two men arrived at the imperial study and Emperor Jing sat in his seat.
He stared at Guo Tianyang with cold eyes.
Guo Tianyang didn't dare to look directly at him and stood in front of Emperor Jing anxiously.
"Bring up the letter."
Guo Tianyang obediently placed the letter paper on the table.
Emperor Jing picked it up and began to read it again with a serious expression.
Suddenly he said angrily, "Asshole! You're full of flattery! Disgusting!"
After saying that, he folded the letter and casually stuffed it into a book beside him.
Then he looked at Guo Tianyang and said calmly: "Guo Banban, how many years have you followed me?"
"Your Majesty, I am forty-two."
Emperor Jing said with some emotion: "Yes, after more than forty years, you have also grown old."
Then his eyes became fierce: "Today in the court, you can still do such a stupid thing. I handed the East Factory to you, what achievements have you made?"
Guo Tianyang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He immediately knelt on the ground and trembled, "I will die! Your Majesty, please punish me!"
After saying that, he started kowtowed.
Emperor Jing was full of impatience and shouted angrily: "Get up! Get out of here!"
"Every time something goes wrong, the only option is to kowtow to your father! What else can you do?"
"This is such a big case of corruption in Jianjiang, but Fang Zhengyi, a judge who has only been in office for a few days, has investigated it thoroughly!"
"And you! What are you doing! I'd rather hand over the East Factory to Fang Zheng!"
Guo Tianyang looked at Emperor Jing in despair.
Have you finally spoken your mind?
We have long seen that you just want Fang Zhengyi to enter the palace.
But why should he do that?
Just because he is better at flattering than me? I have been following you for more than 40 years!!
"Your Majesty! Please give me another chance!"
Guo Tianyang knelt down again, crying with every word.
Emperor Jing sighed again as he looked at Guo Tianyang trembling all over, and couldn't help but close his eyes and rub his eyebrows.
"This is just the first time. Don't do it again."
Guo Tianyang was overjoyed when he heard this!
As expected! Our family has not fallen out of favor yet! Your Majesty is becoming more and more nostalgic now!
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!!!"
