After hearing Tang Yin's question, the ministers present looked at each other, and no one said anything. After waiting for a long time, Qi Heng walked out from among the generals, raised his hands and asked: "I wonder which legion your Majesty sent to besiege the Shenchi?"
Tang Yin glanced at Qi Heng and asked half-jokingly: "How about I just send you the Ninth Army?"
Qi Heng shrank his neck and did not dare to answer. Let him go to the battlefield and confront the enemy. Even if he faces thousands of troops, he will not be afraid at all. But if he is asked to besiege the Shenchi, he really has no idea and is unwilling to do so.
When Tang Yin saw this, he laughed out loud and said: "The siege of the Divine Pond is not your Ninth Army's turn yet. I plan to send the Pingyuan Army and the Sky Eagle Army to TXT Download!"
Xiao Muqing and Ying, who were standing in the court hall, both came out and said loudly: "The final general will definitely live up to the mission of the king!"
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded with satisfaction. This is what a commander of an army should say!
Seeing the king's dissatisfaction with him, Qi Heng quickly explained: "The general is not afraid of the Shenchi, but... the Shenchi is mountainous and not suitable for the formation of the Ninth Army..."
Tang Yin waved his hand, interrupted what he was saying, raised his eyes to look at the other people, and said: "If you have something to do, leave the court!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Xiu hurriedly stepped out of the queue, raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it is rare for Elder Huangfu and Elder Jin to come to our country of Feng. I wonder if I can invite these two elders to visit Lingwu Academy!"
Zhang Xiu is the dean of Lingwu Academy in the capital city of Feng Kingdom. If these two Lingwu masters can be invited to Lingwu Academy, even if they just give some advice, the gentlemen and students of Lingwu Academy will benefit a lot. .
Of course Tang Yin would not object to this matter, but he could not help Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan make the decision. He turned to look at them and asked with a smile: "Two elders, what do you two mean?"
Huangfu Xiutai secretly said trouble, and was about to refuse, but Jin Xuan answered first: "Okay! After the court is over, Elder Huangfu and I will go to Lingwu Academy to learn more."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiu's face was full of surprise, he bowed deeply to Huangfu Xiutai and Jin Xuan, and said hurriedly: "Thank you two elders for that."
Huangfu Xiutai shook his head helplessly, and at the same time glanced at Jin Xuan dissatisfied.
Zhang Xiu returned to his original position with satisfaction, and the imperial censor Zhang Zhe stepped out again and said: "Your Majesty, the imperial court has built more than a hundred Lingwu academies, military academies and academies in Fengdi, which has cost a huge amount of money and manpower. , I wonder if your Majesty will continue to build it?”
"Build it!" Tang Yin didn't even think about it, and immediately said: "Of course we must continue to build it! I have already said that Lingwu Academy, Military Academy, and Academy must be popularized in Fengdu first, no matter how much money is spent , manpower, and resources must be given to me to continue building it!" After a pause, he frowned and asked: "There was a lot of silver brought back from Andi, so it won't be able to build even a few colleges and academies! Already?"
Zhang Zhe said seriously: "Recently, disasters have occurred in various parts of our country. Countless amounts of money have been allocated for disaster relief alone. In addition, dozens of prefectures and counties have sent letters to the imperial court, requesting the expansion of the city, and the imperial court needs to allocate funds. Silver, so..."
"So, you want to tell me that the treasury of this kingdom is empty again?" Tang Yin raised his eyebrows. Feng Guo annexed An Guo, and all the silver accumulated by An Guo fell into its own hands. Such a huge amount of silver was lost as soon as it was sent back to Zhenjiang?
"It is true, Your Majesty, although the treasury is not empty, it is no longer rich." Zhang Zhe said truthfully.
In fact, it is easy to understand. No matter how much silver Anguo accumulates, it is still relative to the size of Anguo. The silver of Anguo is nothing at all in the current huge Fengguo. Each county will ask for some. There isn't much left.
"It's so good, why do all the counties and counties have to expand? Are all the places in Feng Country really prosperous to that extent?"
When it comes to internal affairs, Tang Yin feels a headache when he thinks about the complicated, unclear and unclear relationships between officials and officials.
Zhang Zhe was speechless, and Shangguan Yuanji, who was in charge of internal affairs, was speechless. All the civil servants lowered their heads, and no one spoke.
Tang Yin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice while rubbing his forehead: "The expansion of cities in various places can be postponed, but the construction of colleges and academies must not be stopped. Whether or not the city is expanded will have little impact, but if the source of people is lost, that will be The country will be destroyed.”
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, I understand." Zhang Zhe responded with his hands raised, then took a deep look at Shangguan Yuanji and stepped back.
Local officials could not find Zhang Zhe responsible for the expansion of cities in various places. They could only write to the court first, and after the court approved it, Zhang Zhe would allocate silver taels from the treasury to the localities.
The only person who can approve this matter is Shangguan Yuanji, the right prime minister. The expansion of so many cities was approved at once, and the amount of silver involved was so huge that it can only be described as astronomical figures. Zhang Zhe was also very doubtful as to whether there was any transaction of power and money. Now that the king has spoken, he no longer has to worry about this matter.
Cai Gui, who was standing behind, took a peek at the stern-faced Shangguan Yuanji, then looked at Zhang Zhe, and couldn't help but secretly shake his head. Zhang Zhe's ability to offend people is truly unprecedented!
He didn't know whether Shangguan Yuanji accepted bribes from local officials, but he understood Shangguan Yuanji's intentions. The reason why he approved the expansion of so many cities at once was mainly to increase the political performance of local officials. The county chiefs are all handled by the king alone. If they cannot achieve dazzling political achievements, the only thing that will be damaged is the king's face and prestige. Shangguan Yuanji is obviously protecting the king by doing this, and everyone understands it tacitly, but Zhang Zhe didn't seem to notice that if he had to bring this matter to the table, I'm afraid it wouldn't be just the right prime minister who would be offended!
Seeing that Zhang Zhe had retreated, Tang Yin asked again: "Is there anything else, everyone? Just retreat from the court!"
"Wei Chen has nothing to say, so wei Chen will leave!" All the ministers present bowed their hands and saluted, and then exited the court one after another.
When Shangguan Yuanji was about to leave, Tang Yin raised his hand to stop him: "Yuanji!"
"Your Majesty!" Shangguan Yuanji hurriedly stepped back and turned back to look at Tang Yin.
Tang Yin shook his head at him and walked out from the side of the hall. Shangguan Yuanji followed up, walked behind Tang Yin, walked out of the main hall, and came to the small garden behind the main hall. Tang Yin slowed down and asked Shangguan Yuanji to walk side by side with him, and asked: "What's going on? Why do you need to expand so many cities at once? Is it necessary?"
"It's very necessary." Shangguan Yuanji answered simply.
"Tell me, why is it necessary?" Tang Yin asked with a frown.
"Now the officials in every county and county in our country are all newly appointed officials, and they are selected by the king. Whether they can make political achievements is crucial to the king's reputation, and a place is riddled with holes. It cannot be achieved in one or two years or in three or four years. The way to achieve immediate results is to build cities. As long as the cities in various places become prosperous, political achievements will be achieved. The prestige will be high, and people everywhere will support the king more. King, this huge territory of our country was pieced together through conquests in the south and north, and what is missing is cohesion. Only by establishing the prestige of the king first, the people everywhere will I will be convinced and will not rise up to resist," Shangguan Yuanji said quietly.
oh! I see! After Tang Yin heard this, he suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Shangguan Yuanji, who had always been prudent in his work, suddenly approved the expansion of so many cities this time.
He shook his head and smiled and said: "It seems that Zhang Zhe has misunderstood you. Judging from his behavior in the court, he seems to suspect that you have secretly accepted a lot of bribes from local officials."
Shangguan Yuanji smiled indifferently and said: "It is human nature. After all, the power in my hands is too great and it is easy to arouse suspicion. What's more, as a censor, Mr. Zhang must be wary and suspicious of all officials in the court. I feel that Mr. Zhang You were right to do it, and you were right to doubt it.”
Tang Yin looked at Shangguan Yuanji with a variety of emotions in his heart. He was not easy to be the king of the country, and Shangguan Yuanji was equally difficult to be the right minister. As the head of the civil service, he was actually the target of public criticism. He didn't know how many pairs of eyes were staring at him day and night. Woolen cloth.
He patted Shangguan Yuanji on the shoulder, changed the subject, and said, "You will come with me to the palace later. This imperial edict is not easy to write. You should also help as a consultant!"
Shangguan Yuanji smiled, nodded and sighed: "It is indeed difficult to write." Even if it is a heavenly edict, it is not easy to make the people of the world believe Guang Xuanling's crimes.
"By the way, there's one more thing." Tang Yin pulled Shangguan Yuanji into the pavilion. As soon as he sat down, he seemed to remember something and said, "It's too cold here. Let's go sit in the study."
He has profound cultivation and is not afraid of the cold. What he is afraid of is that Shangguan Yuanji will not be able to accept it.
Shangguan Yuanji was deeply moved when he could sense the king's consideration for him. He raised his hands to Tang Yin and said, "Your Majesty, I am fine here..."
"Let's go!" Tang Yin pulled Shangguan Yuanji and walked towards the study without any explanation.
After entering the study, the two of them sat down. Tang Yin took out a dozen papers from his sleeves, which were densely packed with words. He patted them with his hands, then handed them to Shangguan Yuanji and said, "This is the national policy I plan to implement. It has not been written yet." Okay, Yuanji, take a look first."
"Oh?" Shangguan Yuanji immediately became interested. He had been assisting Tang Yin for a long time and knew that his great king rarely formulated national policies, and once he formulated them, they would definitely be something weird, such as his insistence on promoting colleges and academies.
After Shangguan Yuanji took it, he looked at it intently, then immediately put it down again, saying with a dry smile: "Weichen... I don't understand very well."
"You don't understand what I mean, right? In fact, you can understand it. After all..."
"Uh, no, Your Majesty, I can't understand your handwriting. It's really... it's too sloppy."
Tang Yin's careful writing was all crooked. After writing hard and fast, it was simply a wild cursive and a heavenly book. Even Asan and Asi, who served Tang Yin day and night, couldn't understand it. Shangguan Yuanji didn't understand what he wrote. If it was a word To recognize a word, he would have to go blind from exhaustion.
