Xia Jiu watched with a normal expression as Liu Shiqing argued with a group of ministers who were military generals in the main hall.
No one could tell what was happening in his heart.
It's even less clear what he was thinking.
"Father, this Liu Shiqing has gone too far. None of the military ministers here have shed blood or been injured for our country of Great Xia! Now he is said to be a minister who brings disaster to the country! My son suggested that this female minister be thrown into the sky prison."
Xia Xingbang said upon seeing this.
Seeing what Xia Xingbang said, Liu Shiqing seemed to be a little bit proud and said loudly.
"Come on... If you want to catch me, come and catch me!"
"But Your Majesty, you have to know! Dazhou only has 500,000 troops! Beiliang only has 200,000 troops!"
"When His Majesty came to the throne, he made a national policy to recuperate and recuperate! Reduce taxes! This is a policy to nourish the country and an act of a holy king!"
"But Your Majesty, we have reduced taxes. But we are still burdened with huge military expenditures! Sooner or later Daxia will be brought down! Now the only way is disarmament!"
"Your Majesty, if you want to kill, kill! I, Liu Shiqing, am alone, and I only have the courage to be loyal! Just as my master's poem said! I am not afraid of being broken into pieces, I want to leave my innocence in the world!"
Xia Wenzhi originally saw that Li Xiaozheng and the others were silent, so he didn't want to get involved.
However, Liu Shiqing's words also moved him.
He took a step forward and said.
"Father, I think! What Liu Shangshu said is not unreasonable. I have been recuperating in Daxia for many years, but the treasury is actually in deficit! Please ask father to make a judgment!"
"Li Shoufu! Why didn't you say a word today?" Xia Jiuyuan looked at Xia Wenzhi and ignored him. Instead, he looked at Li Xiaozheng and asked lightly.
Li Xiaozheng took a step forward and said
"I believe that Liu Shangshu's original intention is good! But disarmament is of great importance. I think what General Huo and others said is reasonable. We established Daxia with force, and it was thanks to the bloody battles of the soldiers that Daxia became what it is today. It’s stable! So, I think we can take a long-term approach!”
Li Xiaozheng's move is just right for the mud.
"I think Li Shoufu is right! Liu Shangshu, what you are responsible for is money! You must also be responsible for military pay! No matter what method is used, if you can't get the military pay, I will use your head to give me a hundred Master Wanjun gives me an explanation!" Xia Jiuyuan said sternly.
When the generals saw what Xia Jiuyuan said, they stopped pursuing it.
After retreating from the court, Huo Yingluan led a group of military ministers to surround Liu Shiqing.
Xia Wenzhi stepped forward when he saw this.
Li Xiaozheng stopped him and said, "Mr. Lu definitely didn't ask Liu Shiqing to do this. Liu Shiqing went too far this time! Don't get involved."
Xia Wenzhi looked at Li Xiaozheng with confusion on his face.
"We need the support of the army! By doing this, Liu Shiqing is undoubtedly standing on the opposite side of the army!"
"The Huo family's army only has 400,000! The remaining 600,000 are all forces we can fight for! What happened in the court today will soon be heard by millions of soldiers! Do you want to stand against them again? ?"
Li Xiaozheng directly pointed out the pros and cons.
Only then did Xia Wenzhi realize the seriousness of the problem and stopped talking.
Liu Shiqing is quite strong. When facing a group of military officials, he is not afraid at all: "What do you want to do?"
Huo Yingluan patted Liu Shiqing on the shoulder and said, "Liu Shangshu, don't be afraid! There are still ten days left for the military pay deadline. The military pay for a quarter is five million taels. If you can't get the military pay after ten days, I will have to take it from your account." Headed."
After saying that, he patted Liu Shiqing's face again and left arrogantly.
"Just prepare to wait for death! For five million taels, even if you rely on selling national debt, you won't have the money to pay it back by then! You are dead! I will have to take this position in the future." Hoku also had a full face. said provocatively.
Xia Xingbang also stepped forward, pointed to one side with a smile, and said to Xia Wenzhi and Li Xiaozheng who pretended not to see Liu Shiqing.
"Mr. Liu, have you seen it! Your friends seem to just want to draw a clear line with you now. Die cunning rabbit,
The running dogs are cooking. This sentence seems to be also a famous saying of your master. "
Then he leaned close to Liu Shiqing's ear and said, "If you change your mind at any time and want to change sides, you can come to Prince Yan's Mansion to find me. I cherish you as a talent! I can help you."
After saying that, he walked away.
Liu Shiqing was a little disappointed, especially when he saw that neither Xia Wenzhi nor Li Xiaozheng helped him.
That feeling of frustration arose spontaneously.
He did not return to the Ministry of Finance, but went to the Ancestral Temple.
Under the leadership of a young eunuch, they went to Lu Qian's house.
In the room, the modest man and three other hot palace maids were sitting around a table, playing with some square stones.
The three palace maids had few clothes on their bodies and were very cool.
Lu Qian was also naked and squatting on a chair.
"Haha! I'm confused! Touch yourself, it's all one color! Thirteen! Quick... take off... take off... take off..."
Because Lu Qian had his back to the door, he didn't notice Liu Shiqing coming in.
He danced excitedly and spitted.
He played mahjong all morning just for this moment.
Finally you can see the spring scenery at a glance!
"My lord..." Several palace maids pointed at Liu Shiqing at the door.
Lu Qian turned his head and saw Liu Shiqing with a sad face and said
"Fuck...what's wrong with you? Your girlfriend was robbed? She's still constipated."
"Master!" Liu Shiqing stepped forward to greet him.
"In a bad mood?" Lu Qian asked.
Liu Shiqing nodded and said, "Can I talk to you alone?"
Lu Qian said to him with some resentment, "Not now! You go out first... I still have business to do."
Liu Shiqing didn't quite understand, but seeing Lu Qian's serious expression, he walked out.
Lu Qian pointed at the three maids and said, "Come on...quickly...quickly...take off your clothes..."
Several palace maids were a little shy, but they were willing to admit defeat.
Lu Qian surrounded them and admired them repeatedly.
Sure enough, everyone is a unique individual.
Even if it is big.
Each one has its own style.
Lu Qian said, taking the opportunity to experience the touch again before letting them leave.
When Liu Shiqing came in again.
Lu Qian said, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Liu Shiqing told what happened in the court today.
After hearing this, Lu Qian couldn't help but laugh out loud, and said to Liu Shiqing, "My stupid apprentice, you are really stupid... Do you think you don't live long enough? Are you proposing a disarmament plan?"
"Do you think you are the only one who is smart enough to discover this problem? If I don't brag to you, at least more than half of the people in the court know about this problem!"
"Those military ministers know better! You know how involved this is, do you think disarmament is such a simple thing just by talking about it? But you are the only one who is stupid, and you are the only one who proposed it!"
Being scolded by Lu Qian, Liu Shiqing still felt aggrieved and said, "I have to bear huge military expenses every year, as well as taxes that cannot make ends meet! Master, didn't you trick me by asking me to be the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue? This is obviously a trick!"
The best emperor master
