Jiuli walked in front. Prime Minister Ye and others followed behind.
Jiuli put his hands behind his back. Humming a little tune in his mouth, he looked around when he had nothing to do.
Prime Minister Ye was walking behind, his feet almost hanging to the ground. He was shocked by the difference between Jiuli today, and what Jiuli said just now made him feel a little humiliated.
Prime Minister Ye looked at Jiuli who was humming a little tune. I can't figure out what happened to Jiuli today. So much has changed.
Prime Minister Ye glanced at the servant next to him. The servants will understand instantly. Sneaked away quietly.
Jiuli noticed Prime Minister Ye's movements, but she didn't care. In the face of strength. All strategies are in vain.
After a while Jiuli arrived at Jinluan Hall. This is where the morning dynasty is held, and the ministers have already arrived. While Jiuli was still outside, he heard the chatter of the ministers.
"The Emperor has arrived~" the eunuch's sharp voice sounded.
The ministers fell silent instantly.
Prime Minister Ye followed Jiuli into the morning court. Jiuli walked towards the dragon chair, with Prime Minister Ye following behind him. The expressions of the other ministers did not change at all, as if they were accustomed to this.
"Prime Minister Ye. From today on, you don't have to assist me in my morning court. I'm an adult now. Prime Minister Ye doesn't have to follow me every day." It's time to reach the Dragon Throne. Jiuli turned around and looked at Prime Minister Ye.
Jiuli said it here on purpose, as expected. Now Prime Minister Ye suddenly felt embarrassed. He has come this far. Jiuli asked him not to follow him, could he not be embarrassed?
The ministers were also surprised when they heard Jiuli's words. They all raised their heads and looked at Jiuli and Prime Minister Ye.
"What? Do you want me to invite you down personally?" Jiuli looked at Prime Minister Ye who was silent with a cold face.
"Your Majesty is right. I am the one who has drifted away. Seeing that Your Majesty can be independent makes me feel relieved." Prime Minister Ye adjusted his mentality and looked at Jiuli with a look of relief. It was as if he was truly happy and relieved for Jiuli.
"Your Majesty, you can't. Your Majesty, the Prime Minister, has been assisting Your Majesty for so many years, and Your Majesty has just come of age this year. I think it would be better for Your Majesty to let Your Majesty, the Prime Minister, continue to assist Your Majesty."
Prime Minister Ye turned around and glanced at his people in the lobby, and the ministers immediately understood.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I feel that the Prime Minister has been with Your Majesty for so many years and has a lot of knowledge about the affairs of the DPRK. It might be better to have the assistance of the Prime Minister," someone else said.
"I second the proposal."
"I second the proposal,"
"I second the proposal,"
Not a moment. Most of the ministers in the hall seconded the proposal. Prime Minister Ye saw this scene. A smile in my heart. Banquet Li, banquet Li. Now it’s up to you what to do.
Everyone seconded. Jiuli's face turned darker. In the end, only a few inconspicuous ministers standing at the end of the hall remained silent.
Everyone thought that there was nothing Jiuli could do now. He will still let Prime Minister Ye assist him in going to court.
"How presumptuous! Is it me or Prime Minister Ye who has the final say here! I don't have any rights anymore?" Jiuli patted the handle of the dragon chair angrily. He looked at everyone in the lobby coldly.
"Your Majesty, calm down. This is not what I meant."
Jiuli was angry. The ministers were so frightened that they all knelt down.
"Oh? What do you mean? Do you mean this is the Ye family's world? Not my Yan family's world?" Jiuli asked.
"I don't dare. I don't have this idea. Your Majesty will investigate clearly." He has such a big name. How could this minister not be afraid? After all, they are all people who are greedy for life and afraid of death. And these people care most about their reputation.
"Hmph! Do you have any objections to my decision?" Jiuli said.
"I think your Majesty is right. After all, the Prime Minister is a minister. Your Majesty can now act alone. I feel that I don't need to assist Your Majesty every day."
When there was silence, it was Prime Minister Ye who finally stood up and spoke. If he didn't speak at this time, there would be no way to go down.
"Very good. Ye Aiqing has no objections. Does anyone else have any objections?" Jiuli nodded with satisfaction. Said to the others.
"I have no objection."
"I have no objection."
Seconded by the minister just now. Suddenly it became meaningless. Others also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Prime Minister himself spoke out. Otherwise they would be embarrassed.
"Very good. All my dear friends, please get up. After all, I have always been very considerate of my subjects. With your appearance, people who don't know may think that I am bullying you."
Jiulipi said to everyone in the lobby with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The ministers stood up one by one. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at Jiuli. They all felt that Jiuli had a seizure today, and he suddenly changed so much.
"If you have something to report, please leave the court if there is nothing to do," Jiuli said, looking at the ministers who had calmed down.
Such a big thing just happened. How dare these people speak. No one wanted to be on the knife, so no one spoke.
"In the past, there were a lot of big and small things happening every day. Why didn't anyone say anything today?" Jiuli's eyes scanned everyone's body equally.
However, the ministers' heads were lowered. It's quieter.
"Very good. Since my dear friends have nothing to say, let me say it." Jiuli smiled and looked at everyone.
Everyone's hearts tightened instantly.
"If the national treasury is in deficit, if I remember correctly, many of my dear friends have borrowed money from the treasury. I think everyone is living a good life. There is nothing wrong in the country. In this case, then those who owe money My dear friends, why don’t you return your money as soon as possible.”
Jiuli looked at everyone in the lobby. Eighty percent of this was borrowed from the national treasury. When the late emperor was here, the treasury was still full. But in recent years. The national treasury is already depleted and cannot be depleted any more. Even the emperor like him is so poor.
How can you start a business without money, so Jiuli's first thing is to collect money.
...The ministers were silent... Why were they suddenly asked to pay back the money? Their expressions were as ugly as eating shit. None of them spoke. Anyway, the emperor couldn't remember who owed money. They definitely don't come forward.
"Isn't anyone taking the initiative? Wang Aiqing. I order you. Bring me all the bills you owe to me at court today." Jiuli saw that no one was speaking. He turned to look at the Minister of the Ministry of Finance.
Shangshu Hube suddenly broke out in cold sweat. Not surprisingly. He was also Prime Minister Ye's man, otherwise how could he have lent out so much money.
The Secretary of the Household Department glanced at Prime Minister Ye with some fear. Seeing that Prime Minister Ye had no reaction, he had no choice but to step out and speak to Jiuli.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Very good. I hope all of you, dear ones, will pay back the money consciously. Otherwise, I will come to collect the debt personally. But it will not be so easy to talk to. Come to court." Jiuli said to the ministers threateningly.
