In the Royal Palace, in the Jinluan Hall.
At this time, the memorials on the emperor's desk had already piled up like a mountain, and the pile could no longer be piled up.
Ministers expressed their opinions in an endless stream...
Emperor Nan was really disturbed by the noise, and ordered his servants to serve tea and snacks to the civil and military ministers of the dynasty...
Slowly consuming...
He also asked: "My dear friends, you can speak freely, but everyone is doing it for the people of Northern Dynasty. I am very moved by your sincerity."
The emperor said: "I have just discussed a complete plan for the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony with all your beloved ministers, and the Ministry of Rites will start to organize it; this year's severe winter is coming, and the winter in the Northern Dynasty is the most difficult. This is related to the life and death of all the people in the Northern Dynasty. , dear friends, do you have any objections?"
"I have no objection."
At this time, the officials' faces were gray, but they did not dare to disobey the emperor's order.
Prince Yu first proposed that Prince Yu's Palace should take the lead, and Prince Yu's Palace was willing to contribute one-half of the palace's grain to the court to fill the national treasury.
The emperor praised him lavishly. At this time, Shangshu Xue from the Ministry of War and Shangshu Ren from the Ministry of Works also came forward one after another, willing to donate food.
The emperor glanced coldly at the ministers, who then went out to donate food.
The emperor suddenly laughed heartily and said, "It is my blessing to have all the ministers in the Northern Dynasty help me. I am very happy."
"I am willing to share your Majesty's worries and contribute to the Northern Dynasty." Although I said this, it was all bitter.
The real Lin Hu actually didn't care about the court for a long time. He didn't even care about how much land he owned. The Lin family's money was all his, but it was always taken care of by Lin Bao, Lin Yi and others.
Therefore, when the ministers donated food to the court, Lin Hu was unmoved and did not say a word. When the officials of Prime Minister Lin's faction saw that Prime Minister Lin did not take any action, they naturally did not move and watched helplessly as the military attachés donated food. own food.
The emperor also knew that this year was actually a good harvest year in the Northern Dynasties and every household had plenty of surplus grain, but the Ministry of Household Affairs said that the treasury was empty...
Even if they hand over some of the food, there will still be enough food, but only the common people will suffer.
The problem cannot be solved by officials simply donating food, but no one will speak out at this time and are willing to remain mute.
The emperor also began to act stupid.
The emperor glanced at Prime Minister Lin. Lin Hu today was indeed very different from the past. No wonder the King of Jin interceded for him again. Will Lin Hu only be willing to hand over Lin Bao after the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty finished this drama?
Or he didn't want to hand over Lin Bao at all.
The emperor added: "Academician An made a bold statement just now, proposing to reserve talents for the Northern Dynasty and recruit wise men. I think it is feasible. I will leave this matter to the Cabinet Council for planning. I hope An Aiqing will complete this matter before the Spring Examination next year."
An Yuxiao had just spoken out his plan in great detail and handed over the memorial, which was currently placed on the emperor's imperial desk.
Immediately, another minister came out to object: "I think it is inappropriate to leave such an important matter to Academician An alone."
This person belongs to the prime minister's faction. Today's prime minister is too cold and tactful at all. However, in order to strive for greater interests, they, the civil servants, will not give up and let An Yuxiao eat all such a big pie.
Besides, in just one year, An Yuxiao went from being an unpopular Marquis of Anping with no real power to the position of a third-rank cabinet bachelor. This is simply unbelievable. From this point of view, he has successfully become the emperor's minister. cronies.
Lin Hu narrowed his eyes and stared at An Yuxiao for a long time. He did not expect that the submissive An Yuxiao was so eloquent.
