Song Guang stood up and said to Emperor Huai'an with a cold face: "Your Majesty, we are not just talking nonsense like him, we have evidence."
"The refugees outside the capital all go to the Prince's Garden to wait for work. They are treated as slaves by Li Baiyi. That is a certainty. We are not talking nonsense."
"Although we do not have the ability to make these refugees eat the same food as us, it does not mean that we do not care about the people of Li. We are dedicated to the good of the people."
"How can we just watch the people under our hands suffer."
"If these refugees riot again, or resist because they cannot bear the slavery, the energy gathered will only be greater. Has Your Majesty ever thought about this?"
"At that time, both Li Baiyi and Zhang Baiyi will become an outlet for these people to vent their anger."
Li Baiyi waved his hand, couldn't help but stood up and said: "Okay, okay, don't confuse the public with your lies here."
"Do you think you can successfully deceive His Majesty with just a few words?"
"Your Majesty, I actually want to use a new type of disaster relief method so that these refugees can be properly resettled. It's just that these officials who have nothing to do with their bodies can't understand it, so they just slander and slander me. I believe your Majesty will understand. Come out and make arrangements for me."
"These guys who only know how to talk empty talk and big words have never thought of actually doing something good for the people."
"Your Majesty has allocated one hundred taels. They will spend at most 50 taels for disaster relief. In fact, the actual effect is only 50 taels, not even one tael of silver."
"Your Majesty's allocation is for these people to use. It is better to directly distribute money to the refugees. In that case, the refugees will directly use the money to eat in various restaurants in the capital, and they will not only drink two bowls of gruel every day."
When Emperor Huai'an heard this, he couldn't help but sneer. This guy's mouth is really vicious. His meaning is very obvious, that is, these guys don't do human affairs. Without them, disaster relief may be better achieved.
But Song Guang couldn't help but stood up and said: "Li Baiyi, you idiot, please explain clearly how we can live without food."
"If you can't explain clearly, then you are slandering the imperial officials. I ask your Majesty to kill this hateful person."
Song Guang was convinced that this guy Li Baiyi was just talking big words. In fact, he had no means of providing disaster relief. He was just trying to disgust people.
He is just a typical playboy. Maybe he read a few more books at home and can write poetry.
But disaster relief, something that requires practice to gain true knowledge, cannot be understood from books.
"Your Majesty, as far as I know, Li Baiyi's so-called new disaster relief method is actually just throwing money at it. There is nothing special or clever about it."
"We are such a big country. Is there no other way to provide disaster relief other than using money? I don't believe it."
"I feel that Li Baiyi's method of providing disaster relief is just to support the refugees with money so that they will not cause trouble."
"In this way, it's as if I, Dakun, are afraid of these refugees. Then the number of refugees will only increase, and they may even become rebellious."
"If you are a businessman, there is nothing wrong with doing this, but Li Baiyi is the county magistrate and represents the court."
"What he did was completely disregarding the face of the entire Dakun court. What he said was nothing more than an excuse for his own incompetence."
"If such people are not severely punished, I am afraid that the talents of Dakun will wither and the people's morale will be turbulent."
"Dakun's treasury cannot be infinitely full, and it can only use money to solve problems, if everything in the future is solved this way."
"How strong the national power of Dakun is to be able to support it, how can the dignity of Dakun Chaotang exist?"
After hearing this, Emperor Huai'an raised his chin and looked back and forth between the two of them, wondering what he was thinking.
"Well, I don't care about the punishment. I am very curious about this guy's new method. What method makes you so confident that you can sit back and relax."
"In this way, you kid, tell me and let me judge."
"If I feel that your method is useful, I will forget about it."
"If I feel that your kid is fooling me and fooling the court, I will never give you mercy."
"After all, I have to give an explanation to the court and the people of the world."
When Li Baiyi heard this, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes. He didn't know what kind of hole this old guy was thinking of digging for himself.
Maybe he wanted to know about new disaster relief methods, but it was definitely not to excuse himself.
When had this old gangster been so kind to help him? He just wanted to let her breathe and let him have fun.
But he could only think about these words in his heart, and it was naturally impossible to say them out.
"Your Majesty, my method is actually very simple. It is to provide disaster relief by asking people to work."
"It takes money to find people to work, and it takes money to keep these people fed and clothed. Anyway, we have to pay them. We might as well just find these refugees to work and kill two birds with one stone."
Tang En jumped out immediately and said with a sneer: "Humph, you said you didn't enslave the people. You must have admitted it yourself."
"You are enslaving the people without knowing it. If you really want to provide disaster relief, you should hand over all the people's wages and disaster relief funds to the hands of the people, instead of just giving them a share of the money."
"This is proof that you enslave the people. What else can you say?"
Song Guang, who was on the side, also nodded and smiled: "Master Tang is right. Just now he tried so hard to defend himself, but now he won't do it to himself."
"This is the disadvantage of lying. If you tell a lie, if you want to prevent the lie from being exposed, you have to use more lies to fill the loopholes."
"That's right, what kind of new disaster relief method is it? It's just enslaving the people with a different name. The essence is the same."
When the prince heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. Why is this getting darker and darker? This is not okay.
Even Li Baiyi couldn't explain clearly, and he couldn't help much.
Thinking of this, the prince couldn't help but become anxious, but the eighth prince could hardly hold back his laughter.
In this scene, the situation is great. Li Baiyi's removal today is probably a certainty. If he is lucky and the prince acts impulsively again, he might even be able to take down the prince!
Li Baiyi almost jumped up when he heard Tang En and Song Guang talk to each other and describe themselves as enslaving the people.
What are these officials of the imperial court thinking? They draw a goal first and then work hard towards it, right? Their words are completely illogical.
Fortunately, these guys are all traitors, and their efforts are to hollow out Dakun and enrich their own families.
