"Bring it here!" Emperor Wu said majestically.
He was murmuring in his heart, in this situation, why is Lao Jiu doing this?
At least, he himself couldn't think of any good way to crack it.
The six ministers were all expressionless and would not get involved.
What's more, the Minister of Industry is still from the Du family.
The little eunuch ran in under great pressure and under the gaze of the bosses. Chang Lin had already walked to the crowd and received the urgent report from the little eunuch.
Although he had a favorable impression of the Ninth Prince, as the eunuch who accompanied Emperor Wu on his ascension to the throne, he was extremely sensitive to the situation.
This time, the Ninth Prince really blocked the retreat.
He couldn't think of any other way or anyone who could save him?
He did not think this so-called urgent report related to the changes in the future pattern of the country was useful.
If the report is true, even if it is Du Shangshu who is the Minister of Industry, then we must put aside everything else to protect him.
But... is this possible?
There was silence in Tai Chi Hall.
They didn't argue because they already had victory.
Li Zhao will have to shed his skin even if he doesn't die!
Emperor Wu tore open the fire paint and took out a thick letter.
"Father, the emperor personally..."
Suddenly, they noticed that Emperor Wu's expression changed.
They are all contemporary veterans, and they also know that the Emperor Wu is good at hiding his emotions. He has never been so happy as he is today.
Could it be said that King You really sent good news that could change the future pattern of the country?
If that were the case, it would be troublesome.
The curiosity of the six ministers standing in front was aroused, and they really couldn't think of any way to break the situation.
"Hahaha……"
Just when the curiosity of the civil and military officials in the dynasty was aroused, Emperor Wu burst into laughter.
This smile made everyone even more confused.
Emperor Wu's eyes sparkled with a look he had never seen before, and he actually stood up and said: "Pushes on the left and right, six ministers, King Zhao, General Qin, General Cheng, General Yuchi, General Li..."
"Follow me to the side hall!"
Emperor Wu strode away with the letter in hand, looking relaxed. The people whose names were called were all the top bosses in the Wu Kingdom.
The group of people quickly headed to the side hall.
As soon as this group of people left, there was an explosion in Tai Chi Hall.
"what happened?"
"I don't know..."
"Could it be that King You really has an urgent matter?"
Many people looked ugly, especially the representatives of aristocratic families.
They thought they could kill Li Zhao this time, but the change happened before it started.
…
Side hall.
Emperor Wu motioned for everyone to take their seats: "Everyone, please take a look!"
Emperor Wu took away several of the letters and showed them only the key part.
This group of top tycoons in the Wu Kingdom have already been itching for a long time.
They were curious, what kind of tricks was King You playing?
After Zuo Pushi got it, his expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "This...how is this possible?"
"Hurry up! Old man!"
"vulgar!"
"I'm just vulgar, what's wrong?"
General Cheng cursed and leaned forward, his beard prickling, and he was so angry that the civil servants cursed loudly.
Only the six ministers remained unchanged, and they were considered to have the lowest official positions here.
It's their turn after these people have finished reading.
The Minister of Hubu and the Minister of Libu looked at it first, especially the Minister of Hubu, whose pupils shrank suddenly and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, are you serious about this?"
He is the Minister of Household Affairs, and he is scolded and criticized every day, which makes people depressed.
The people scolded him, the officials scolded him, and Emperor Wu scolded him. This position is really not for anyone to sit in.
If what His Highness Prince You said is true, then he might really have a chance to avoid being scolded.
The others browsed quickly until Du Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry got the letter paper and his expression changed.
Even for a calm-minded person like him, after seeing the content and blueprint in the letter, he couldn't help but feel excited and start yearning for it.
What if... this is true?
No, this is true!
It's very possible!
Du Shangshu's heart was beating wildly, his heart was complicated, and he clenched his fists.
Between the country on one side and personal hatred on the other, how to choose?
Du Shangshu raised his head and his heart skipped a beat because he found that both civil servants and generals were staring at him.
He was too familiar with that look. If he dared to object or show favoritism, then he would offend the military and this group of people.
In the final analysis, the grievances between King You and the Du family can only be regarded as personal grievances. Compared with the reputation of the entire country and its future, the Du family branch is nothing.
Emperor Wu saw all this and felt very happy, but his face remained calm and said: "What do you all think?"
Zuo Pushe was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, whether what His Highness Prince You said is true or not, we still need to..."
"His Majesty--"
Before Zuo Pushe finished speaking, Chang Lin had already brought the young eunuch over.
"This servant has met your Majesty and all the princes..."
Emperor Wu asked: "Can you make ice?"
"yes!"
“Can it be made here?”
"Yes!" the little eunuch said hesitantly: "But the slave cannot do it in person..."
Everyone knows that King You doesn't want everyone to learn this secret technique.
Emperor Wu waved his hand, and someone brought the screen.
Soon, the little eunuch's voice sounded: "Your Majesty, the ice has been made!"
Everyone in the side hall was shocked: "So fast?"
They followed Emperor Wu hurriedly to the screen, and what they saw was basins of ice.
The ice is braving the cold.
"hiss--"
"This...this is actually true?"
"How is this done? Making ice in the summer...what a miracle!"
Even the most powerful people were shocked.
They went up and touched it. The ice was cold, even better than the ice they took out of the ice cellar.
Emperor Wu was overjoyed, especially when he saw the bright and shocked look in the eyes of this group of people.
"Ahem—" Emperor Wu coughed lightly and said, "What do you think, sir?"
The left and right servants were a little distracted, but they still couldn't believe it.
It's a hot summer day. Doesn't making ice mean you're going against God?
The generals in the army had already smashed the ice into pieces and held it in their arms very unceremoniously, and started to discuss it in a hazy way.
As for the six ministers, they looked serious.
Thinking of the letter and blueprint the Ninth Prince had just written to them, no one was not moved.
Even Du Shangshu couldn't bear it at this moment.
They didn't wake up from the shock until Emperor Wu asked.
Zuo Pushe took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, since the summer ice production has been controlled, according to His Highness King You's wish, our Wu Kingdom can do business with the other three countries at the same time? Just like that sugar?"
His eyes flashed with excitement. People in the Wu Kingdom were no strangers to sugar. Even the generals of the dynasty knew that You Guo had made millions of taels with sugar.
Otherwise, how could You State withstand Wu State's attack?
But now, this kind of "big killer" Wu Guo also has.
How can you not be excited?
What is Wu Guo lacking most now?
It's money!
Emperor Wu nodded slightly, but he was still restrained and said: "Zhao'er said that since the treasury wants to do business, it must be big."
"What do you think, Minister of the Ministry of Finance?"
The Minister of Hubu immediately stood up excitedly and said: "Your Majesty, I am suffering so much..."
"Pooh!"
"shameless!"
"damn thing!"
