When I returned to my own territory, there were people tapping my legs and pinching my shoulders, which was very comfortable.
It seems that the prince is not blindly arrogant and unreasonable, at least he understands everyone's thoughts.
"After retiring from the court today, the Supervisor of Shangyi will send people to measure the figures of all your beloved ministers. It is estimated that the new court uniforms will be ready within ten days and distributed for the beloved ministers to wear in court. If anyone feels that he cannot accept this uniform, you can Immediately apply to resign and return to your hometown to avoid being unable to attend court due to service reasons and delaying political affairs!"
Yaoji refers to the "Seven Gentlemen with Long Sleeves" who sneered at him and then refused to leave.
It’s you who can’t accept short-sleeved clothes, and it’s you who are licking your face and refusing to move.
People want face! The tree wants bark!
Your shameless energy is really a "good example" for the world's scholars!
After hearing the prince describe all kinds of incredible things in the fairy world, Liu Zunxian and others fell into great surprise and deep hesitation.
If the prince can get the guidance of Emperor Gao, the great ancestor of the immortal world, he may really be able to create a magical weapon that can sweep through the Jiannu, thereby reversing the unfavorable situation in the Liaodong battlefield.
Although these magical weapons have never been seen, never heard of, and are not recorded in the ancient sacred book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", the words coming from the prince's mouth made everyone confused.
If the prince really returned from his immortal journey and had mastered the peerless secrets taught by Emperor Taizu Gao, then the courtiers would be acting against the will of heaven by opposing the prince.
This is something that the court officials who have read the books of sages for a long time are extremely taboo about. Even if they are reluctant to give in, they will feel strong fear and worry in their hearts.
The uneasy courtiers also thought about something more long-term, that is, because they repeatedly opposed the prince during his lifetime, they would be tortured by the ghost officials sent by Taizu Emperor Gao after his death, and the whole family would never be able to survive...
"If there is no objection, I will agree with you in front of everyone, and the previous different opinions will be in vain!"
These old guys are really good at it. I won’t let you go down the stairs, so you just stand here stiff and stiff. You are really convinced.
The cerebral palsy emperor VS the powerful minister, I don’t know how the blame dumper has survived all these years...
The "Seven Gentlemen with Long Sleeves" who did not succeed in recommending him finally breathed a sigh of relief. If the prince refused to give in, the only way to become an official today would be.
The salary for becoming an official is not low. Even if Ye Luo returns home and has nothing to do, it will be enough to support a family, but deep down he wants to devote himself to the Ming Dynasty for a few more years.
No one would be willing to leave in such a dejected manner. Even though he was very old, he still looked forward to seeing artifacts he had never seen before and eating delicacies he had never tasted before in his lifetime.
"Your Highness is a saint, please forgive me!"
Xue Guoguan was very unhappy when he did not get seven fat vacancies, but as the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty, he still wanted to compliment the young prince on the surface.
Seven fat spots!
How many thousand taels of silver is that?
Just slipped through the cracks of the nails...
pity!
What a pity!
On second thought, if more than half of the cabinet and six ministry officials in this hall were recommended by him, the prince would be extremely wary of himself due to his shrewdness, and would be unlikely to allow him to develop his power.
In view of the fact that the four deputy ministers of the cabinet and the three assistant ministers of the sixth ministry all took their own actions, Xue Guoguan is quite satisfied with the current situation in the court, so it is better to be more steady and proceed step by step.
After losing seven fat positions, the first assistant could only comfort himself with speculation at this time. He could more or less make up for it psychologically and make long-term plans.
"As the old saying goes, worry about the world first, and then rejoice when the world is happy. The locust plague is very serious at the moment. Since several of my dear friends are so worried about the country of Ming Dynasty, please share these worries for me! My dear friends who objected just now , children over ten and under fifteen in each family must eat ten fried locusts, and adults over fifteen and under fifty must eat twenty fried locusts! Under ten and five Those who are over ten years old do not need to eat it. If you abstain from your love and your family, the quantity will be reduced by half! Zhenghua, take this list and invite your family members here, I will give you a good treat!"
Since the whole family eats it, this treat dish is called - Family Bucket!
The Prince hereby officially declares that fried locusts have joined the "Eager to Eat" luxury lunch!
Also on the market for future festivals are "Xianzhong Zongzi", "Zi Cheng Mooncakes", "Ergun Tangyuan"...
Is it possible to just let go of you guys who have been hating me for a long time?
Even if my dear friends are allowed to continue to stand in the main hall, I can still round the corner to deal with you!
The "Seven Gentlemen with Long Sleeves" who voted against it are not considered a loss, but they are now exchanging their "family bucket" for their official position.
What really surprised me was the group of people who abstained from voting, such as Li Daiwen, the Minister of Household Affairs, Chen Xiangming, the left minister of the Ministry of Finance, Zhen Shu, the minister of the Ministry of Justice, Tian Weijia, the right minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Li Rixuan, the right minister of the Ministry of War, and Wei Wei, the left minister of the Ministry of War. Yao Minggong, the left waiting man of Zhaocheng and the Ministry of Rites.
At this time, they were really on the verge of tears. They tried their best to hide but were tricked in.
The whole family wants to eat, what should we do? ? ?
Wei Zhaocheng, the left minister of the Ministry of War, was very puzzled by this, and he did not want to eat the disgusting fried locusts, so he asked the prince: "I don't know what your highness means? Why do you do this to the minister who has given up his power?"
Whether or not his family eats it, and how much they eat, is their business. The main reason is that he couldn't eat any more when he looked at a bunch of fried locusts, and he didn't even have the slightest desire to eat one.
Damn it! On such a sunny day, a "fat sheep" came to my door. Yao Ji smiled and asked this guy: "Ai Qing, if you find it unacceptable?"
After being treated like this by the prince, Wei Zhaocheng immediately became hesitant and kept thinking about countermeasures in his mind. If he didn't answer tactfully enough, he would definitely annoy the prince, and the consequences would be very bad.
Even if you say just one sentence wrongly, the prince may catch you, and then he will greet his whole family softly, what they have eaten in the past few days, and his house will be confiscated and executed.
"I just think that it is enough for adults to eat this food. Children are not yet healthy and may feel uncomfortable eating locusts..."
This was the only explanation that Wei Zhaocheng could think of, but he was so guilty that he became quieter in the end, and even the end was swallowed up.
"Ai Qing, are you sure that what I said before about the locusts is false? Or are you deliberately teaching me how to give orders? With the imperial doctor on hand to supervise, will there be any accidents? Could it be that Ai Qing wants to imitate Li Juesi?"
Li Juesi is a "good example" for the courtiers. Everyone must seize the time to learn from it and don't miss such a good opportunity!
Don’t you just not want to eat it? Are you talking about your children?
Just this little trick, you think I can’t see it?
"Your Highness, please rest assured, I will never dare to imitate Li Juesi!"
Wei Zhaocheng's heart suddenly tightened when he was told that, and he immediately kowtowed and apologized. Even the sweat on his temples started to drop. If he said the wrong thing again, he would become the second Li Juesi.
That was the crime of being confiscated and decapitated, and there was no chance of eating locusts. I was so stupid just now, how could I ask such a question.
This made the prince suspicious. It was really inappropriate. He didn't know how to survive this disaster.
"That's good! If anyone else thinks they can't eat locusts, you can just say so!"
Yao Ji didn't plan to take care of this thing today. He would raise it for two days first and then asked other people.
With Wei Zhaocheng throwing stones at the front and asking for directions, who would dare to say that they find exploding locusts disgusting?
If you can eat it, there will be peace among the ministers.
If you don’t eat, Liu Zhifeng and Li Juesi will choose one of their fates!
Xue Guoguan, who was watching with cold eyes, was secretly cursing Wei Zhaocheng for standing in line and not following him. He was such a self-righteous fool.
Eat the king's salary and share the king's worries!
Even if you don’t have any good ideas, you should be able to take sides in such a simple way, right?
You can even take the wrong side of the line, thinking that abstaining will be fine. Do you really regard the prince as a ten-year-old who only knows how to play in the mud?
Seeing that the hall was completely silent and no one dared to challenge his bottom line, Yaoji couldn't help but feel proud.
The original intention of creating "Family Bucket" was to let these courtiers know that if one person objects, the whole family will take the blame!
If you object to rewarding one bucket at a time, there are plenty of "family buckets". I would like to see how many times you can object in a day!
The prince unexpectedly "rewarded" the ministers so generously. Zhang Guoyuan hurriedly approached and reminded in a low voice: "Your Highness, the locusts prepared by the imperial kitchen outside may not be enough!"
The incident happened suddenly, and Superintendent Shang Shan did not expect that the prince would "entertain" the courtiers' families in such a way today. Even if one family feeds 200 animals, fourteen families would still need 2,800 animals.
"If you don't have enough, go catch it. If you can't catch it, buy it! There is no limit on the size. It costs five cents per catty. Are you afraid that no one will sell it? Buy two hundred catties first and keep it in case you need it!"
As long as I can deal with these disobedient old people, I have never been afraid of spending money. Even if a pound of locusts costs five taels of silver, I can still buy them!
When Yaoji angrily lectured Zhang Guoyuan, he deliberately said it loudly so that everyone could hear clearly. This is the "nuclear weapon" that will shock you!
"Buy two hundred catties first and keep them"...
When the ministers heard such "good" news, their heads were "buzzing"!
Two hundred pounds of locusts!
How much does that have to be?
How many days does it take to finish eating?
"In case of emergency" means that whoever dares to oppose the prince in the future will eat this food.
In the name of "sharing the world's worries", you have not been able to disobey the order, which really made the courtiers worried.
Eat it, many ministers won’t be able to eat it!
If you don’t want to eat, then prepare your funeral arrangements in advance!
If you eat it every day, it will be ten times more uncomfortable than constipation!
If I dream at night, I will dream of a swarm of locusts crawling all over my body!
Yao Ji saw the angry expressions on the faces of the group of old men below, and had to work hard not to have an attack, not to mention how happy he felt in his heart!
It's a lie to eat locusts, but it's true to punish you. These big fat "nuclear locusts" are just here to relieve your temper!
Whoever is dissatisfied, stop talking nonsense and get rid of this bowl of "nuclear locusts" first!
You feel that you can be arrogant and do three big bowls in a row!
If you are so brave, not only will I not deal with you, I will also give you three taels of silver as a reward!
