"In addition, I will give you a Taisu sword. This sword can kill restless royal family members at the top and treacherous traitors at the bottom. No matter who wants to seize food from the tiger's mouth, there is no need to worry about anything, as long as they are willing to sacrifice their own lives. From now on, From now on, you will formally supervise the country. I hope you will not disappoint me."
"After speaking, he glanced at the head eunuch beside him. Soon the head eunuch brought out a tray. On the tray was a half-foot-long dagger. The white-faced and beardless eunuch walked up to Situ Rui: "Your Highness, please "Catch the sword"
After listening to the words of the man on the dragon throne, the hall was completely silent, and you could hear a pin drop. The third prince's expression changed again and again. For some reason, he always felt that his father's words meant something, and seemed to be specifically addressed to him. Same.
Some ministers who had chosen to take sides earlier could no longer care about the high-yielding seeds, and were speculating on the intentions of the emperor's words.
Prince Situ Rui knelt on his knees and took the sword handed by the eunuch with both hands. "My son will live up to his father's trust. I will take the lead in donating 10,000 taels of silver to buy grain and hand it over to Shuntian Prefecture to buy grain and give porridge to the refugees." Keep the number of people as low as possible, and register the refugees. If they are willing to stay, we will organize them to open up wasteland or dig canals to divert water. If they are not willing to stay, let the government pay them a certain amount of travel expenses to return to their place of origin within the specified time. .
As long as we persist for one more year and everyone works together, I believe that the two seeds brought back by Da Sinong will be able to solve the current difficulties. "
"Okay, okay, what the prince said is right. If the courtiers work together, there will be no obstacle that cannot be overcome. If the prince donates 10,000 silver, I will also donate 10,000 silver from my private treasury to buy food."
After hearing the emperor's words, many courtiers also expressed their willingness to donate money and materials.
"Zhao Tong"
"The slave is here"
"You will send someone to assist the prince in a moment to register the money and materials donated by the adults, and then send a team of imperial guards to personally escort them to Shuntian Mansion. Let Mr. Duan directly discuss with the prince what to do."
"The slave takes orders"
Situ Yuan once again glanced at the people in the hall, "You are all the mainstay of the Great Ji Dynasty. I hope that in the face of great right and wrong, you can all overcome the difficulties together. Without the support of the people, you will not be able to achieve your current glory and wealth.
As the old saying goes, water can both carry and capsize a boat, and the people are the water. The previous dynasty was destroyed less than fifty years ago, and the Great Ji Dynasty is only the second generation of my generation. My lords, if you don’t want to suffer the flames of war again, If you don’t want to experience the destruction of your family and your life, then please stick to your true nature as a human being.
I am not afraid of the history books recording how cruel I am. These hands of mine, haha, were stained with human blood when I went to war with the late emperor in the early years." When the emperor said this, he waved his hands in front of his eyes. After speaking, he ignored the reactions of the courtiers and left the Jinluan Palace with a smile.
After hearing the emperor's words, Prince Situ Rui unconsciously touched the tip of his nose. The older his father got, the more threatening he became, but he worshiped his father even more. His father's trick of knocking mountains and shaking tigers was enough for him to learn.
The other ministers stayed on the ground and looked at each other. They had been threatened several times by the emperor without any scruples in the last morning. It would be a lie to say that they were not afraid.
People who are careless are open-minded, but people who want to make mistakes are now scared to death.
Neither the founding emperor of the Great Ji Dynasty nor the current emperor were murderous. On the contrary, the emperors of both generations were people who loved and cherished talents. Although the previous dynasty did not last long, once the comfortable life becomes too long, people will always be happy. Those who are forgetful have long forgotten how the founding emperor could overcome all odds and sit in that high position if he had no skill and scheming. He has also forgotten that the person sitting in the high position now is a man who followed his ancestors into battle to kill the enemy when he was only ten years old.
All the ministers had just gone to court, and not only were they threatened by the superiors, but they also had their hair scratched all over their bodies. It could be said that they could not find any way to reason.
The third prince's face was so gloomy that the prince just smiled and passed him by. Ever since he learned about this good brother's thoughts a year ago, he had only maintained a superficial relationship with his brother from the same mother.
As the elder brother, he did everything he thought he could do. Since good intentions are regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs, everyone wants that position, so let's all rely on their abilities.
As for when he meets his mother underground in the future, he has a clear conscience. He wants brothers and sisters to respect each other, but they don't need it. They only want his life. As the old saying goes, the royal family has no family ties. From now on, his relatives will be his own except his father. Now that he has a wife and children, he will do his best to protect the people he should protect. As for the third brother, he only hopes that he can take care of himself. His parents can't protect him for the rest of his life, not to mention that the younger brother wants his life at any time.
Ji Qingyao, who was far away in Xiaoxi Village, didn't know what happened in the court. She was either in the workshop or hunting in the mountains every day. As for the fields, she hired people from the village to open up some wasteland. In addition to planting potatoes and sweet potatoes, she also planted Sichuan peppercorns and chili peppers. .
