"My suggestion is not only not to impose a sea ban, but to relax the original taboos and open all ports so that merchants have more options for going to sea, so that they will no longer be blocked by pirates at their doorstep."
"In addition, the navy should be trained and a fleet should be built to go to sea. The weapons in the southeast region are depleted, and a new army must be organized and trained!"
"The last thing is the invasion of Beiliang after autumn..."
Before Liang Yi finished speaking, he saw Emperor Zhou looking at him with a strange expression.
"Father, is it wrong to say that I am a son?"
Emperor Zhou gave a deep sigh and said slowly: "The methods you mentioned are all very good, but you forgot to consider one thing..."
"Thoughtless?"
Liang Yi was a little confused.
It was Chu Mengde who explained:
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's method is indeed very effective, but it costs a lot of money and there is not much money left in the treasury."
Liang Yi was even more confused. The treasury really didn't have much money now. This was no secret.
However, he clearly saw something in Chu Mengde's hands just now.
As long as you have that, are you afraid of not having gold and silver?
Seeing Liang Yi being refuted by Emperor Zhou and Chu Mengde, Liang Ding felt happy.
Today I finally let this guy suffer for once.
Hurry and strike while the iron is hot and see if you can arouse the emperor's desire to abolish the prince again.
"It's not the prince's fault. His Royal Highness usually doesn't care about national affairs. It's normal not to know that the treasury is in trouble."
Unexpectedly, Liang Yi didn't care about him at all, and didn't even look at him.
The punch hit the air, which was quite uncomfortable.
Liang Yi, who ignored Liang Ding, looked at Chu Mengde with confusion.
"I know that the treasury is short of money. Even His Majesty's internal funds have been empty for a long time, but Taifu, you should have money in your hands."
"In my hand?"
Chu Mengde stretched out his hand and glanced at the memorial in his hand. This was something he would discuss with Emperor Zhou in detail later.
Then he suddenly thought of something and looked at Liang Yi in shock.
Among the three princes, Taiwei Ling Ziqi was in charge of the Fifth Army Governor's Office and the Three Battalions in charge of military affairs, Wang Deshui was in charge of the Sixth Department and was in charge of government affairs, and Chu Mengde was in charge of the Inspection Institute and Dali Temple, responsible for supervising all officials.
The memorial in his hand is about a major case that happened in Shangjing in the past few days.
If the people on the list are found guilty, it will not be difficult to extract tens of thousands of dollars in wealth.
But why would the prince know?
Did the emperor tell him in advance?
The more Chu Mengde thought about it, the more likely it became.
The emperor had actually decided on the candidate for the crown prince. In order to convince the public, the prince had an amazing performance in this poetry conference.
Liang Yi in the audience didn't know what Chu Mengde was thinking.
Why would he know what Chu Mengde was talking about? It was just reasonable reasoning.
As early as when he entered the palace, he saw Chu Mengde holding this memorial in his hand.
If it is just an ordinary report, it should be submitted to the emperor before the poetry conference begins.
But Chu Mengde did not do this, but kept hiding it in his sleeves.
Now that the memorial has been brought out, there is no reason to take it back.
Therefore, the memorial must be presented to the emperor, but it is a secret agent after going to court.
It reminds me that Chu Mengde is responsible for supervising hundreds of officials.
That memorial probably had the names of many people present written on it.
Confiscating the homes of corrupt officials has always been the most effective way to alleviate the treasury crisis.
It achieves both open source and expenditure reduction, a win-win situation!
The emperor on the throne was not a fool. When Liang Yi said this, he naturally knew what the prince was thinking.
But these things are not meant to be put on the table, so he immediately waved his hand.
"Okay, I'm a little tired, so let's stop here today!"
All the ministers and princes bowed their heads and said yes.
Emperor Zhou stood up and was about to leave. Then he seemed to think of something again and said:
"Although the prince is quite talented, he has not been deeply involved in state affairs. He should study more diligently."
Then, under the service of the chamberlain, he left the Chaoyang Palace.
Hearing that Liang Yi was reprimanded by the emperor, Liang Ding was overjoyed, thinking that the emperor was disappointed with the prince.
However, the fourth prince Liang Liang standing behind him was sneering.
The prince is quite talented, which proves that the emperor is satisfied with the prince's performance today;
If the contact with state affairs is not deep, the more contact the contact will be;
Study more diligently, what can you learn if you are talented? Of course it is the way to govern a country, so who teaches it? Of course it was Sangong on the stage.
This sentence seemed to be a rebuke, but in fact it was an encouragement to the prince, and even sounded like a slap in the face of the third prince.
Liang Liang looked at the prince with burning eyes, his head still lowered and his expression expressionless.
He has really changed, becoming unrecognizable and unfathomable.
But...that's what makes it more interesting.
The emperor left and the ministers dispersed.
Liang Yi pulled Liang Han out of the hall.
I felt a little depressed.
He originally planned to show off in the court today to impress the civil and military officials of the court, but now it seems that only those generals are convinced a lot.
But it doesn't matter, take your time, the sky of Dazhou will not collapse for the time being.
As long as you give yourself time, one day everyone in the civil and military circles will respect you.
"Your Majesty, your performance was great today!"
While he was thinking wildly, Liang Han handed Liang Yi a note.
Because he was deaf and mute, Liang Han always used words to communicate with others, and the guards always kept pen, ink, paper and inkstone at hand.
Looking at the note in his hand, he saw that the writing was pretty good.
Liang Yi smiled and wanted to rub Liang Han's head.
Unexpectedly, this kid dodged him.
"Brother Emperor, I'm already fifteen, you can't treat me like a child anymore!"
Liang Yike didn't care. He just grabbed Liang Han's collar and rubbed the guy's head hard.
Seeing Liang Han's depressed look, Liang Yi couldn't help but smile, and felt more intimate with the world.
In my previous life, I also had younger brothers and younger sisters. I wonder if they would be able to take care of me if I left suddenly.
Speaking of which, in addition to this younger brother, the original person seems to have a younger sister who works as a nun in Qingxin Temple.
"Xiaohan, do you know where my sister is?"
"Brother Huang, is Ming Tong? Maybe I haven't seen him for a long time. Men are not allowed in Qingxin Temple, and I don't know if she is doing well."
Liang Han wrote quickly and handed over a note.
Liang Yi's heart sank.
Emperor Zhou loved Queen Yizhuang very much. Except for the two concubines that Queen Yizhuang selected for him over the years, he never had any other concubines in his harem.
Including the fact that he had been under pressure to maintain his original position as prince, all of these reflected Emperor Zhou's love for Queen Yizhuang.
Naturally, it was difficult for Princess Mingtong to accept the direct cause of Queen Yizhuang's death.
That's why he was sent to a nunnery to avoid missing his old friend.
Secretly keep this in mind.
Liang Yi sent Liang Han away and walked towards the East Palace.
As a result, he was blocked by a chamberlain.
"His Royal Highness, the Emperor has summoned you!"
