Yu'er sat in a high position. Although he was young, he did not panic when facing many ministers who were older than him.
He said calmly, "Even though we, Daliang, are a country of abundance, we cannot be arrogant! Each race and country has its own advantages and disadvantages!"
"Sending overseas students is not because we think Daliang is inferior to others, so we need to learn from foreign countries! It's about allowing these knowledgeable and ambitious young people to go out and broaden their horizons!"
"Let them see the outside world! Don't rest on your laurels! Not only can they appreciate foreign cultures and customs! They can also spread my ideals of Daliang to the outside world! My culture of Daliang!"
"When my mother was here, she always emphasized that I, Daliang, are not an isolated country in this world! No country, no matter how strong or weak, is completely isolated!"
"If you want to develop, make progress, and stay evergreen - you must take a long-term view and have a broad mind! If you only focus on the interests in front of you, you will not get far!"
Yu'er is so young, but he is calm and confident.
Those ministers who opposed sending out the fleet and sending overseas students worried that the "benefits" of Daliang would be given away to outsiders.
He understood it, but he scoffed at it.
The conservative ministers felt that their emperor was too aggressive, too young, had little experience in life, and was very naive!
Wen Jin felt that Yu'er had made it very clear.
She listened and kept nodding.
The Qing Dynasty at that time thought that it was a country of abundance, with a vast land and abundant resources, and that it could be self-sufficient. It felt that the outside world was full of barbarians, so it closed the country... but did it block the development of other countries? Have you blocked the invasion of foreign powers?
The century-long history of humiliation is a lesson that no one who has studied that history can forget.
Yu'er has such foresight at such a young age. Wen Jin is proud of her son!
But the conservatives, relying on their large numbers, loud voices, older age, and seniority... are even more arrogant!
"The emperor would be unfilial if he didn't marry a wife and have children while he was young!"
"So many ships on one trip to sea! So many brain drains! This is a huge loss for Daliang!"
"Sending a fleet, does that mean the fleet goes to sea? Does it mean taking money from the treasury and throwing it into the sea?"
Wen Jin couldn't stand listening any longer. She cleared her throat and stopped the ministers.
"The Emperor is still young, I am not in a hurry! I haven't pressed for marriage yet, why are you urging me?!"
"When the Supreme Emperor first ascended the throne, you urged him to fill the harem and have more sons! Are you ministers sick?"
"I have never seen you care so much about national affairs! Do you care about whether the emperor has a son every day?"
Wen Jin’s crazy output!
How could she watch so many shameless people bully her son into having only one mouth? !
But after she outputted for a while, she realized... Damn, they couldn't hear her!
"Whose dream am I in?"
"No, no, if this is a dream, how angry would I be?"
"I'm afraid this isn't a dream - it's the real thing, right?"
Wen Jin held his chin and thought over and over again. She swaggered around in front of every courtier, palace official, and even Yu'er.
To attract attention - she even sat on the armrest of the dragon chair!
"cough--"
Wen Jin coughed heavily.
You can be sure, no one can see her! Otherwise, who could allow her to sit on the armrest of the dragon chair?
Wen Jin accidentally glanced at the folder in front of Yu'er. There was a date on the folder.
"It's been a year since I last saw Xiao Yuchen?!" Wen Jin was shocked to find out.
She quickly looked sideways at Yu'er, "No wonder I feel that Yu'er is different from the last time we met. It turns out it's not an illusion!"
Wen Jin took a deep breath and his attitude became more solemn.
"This time difference is so big! I feel like a year has passed in the blink of an eye!"
"Since this is not a dream, but what Yu'er is going through, how can I just sit back and ignore it? I have to help my son!"
The emperor and his ministers argued for the whole court meeting, but no result was reached... This was not an urgent matter. Those conservatives wanted to delay it until the young emperor lost confidence and patience and gave up.
Wen Jin followed the conservative ministers.
They walked out of the hall and walked towards the palace gate, talking in low voices as they walked.
"Master Li said that if the Queen Mother is still alive...this is absolutely incredible! As soon as these words came out, the emperor's face changed!" The speaker gave a thumbs up.
Mr. Li smiled and said, "The Emperor is too young, and the benefits he mentioned are too idealistic! So much real money can't be exchanged for actual benefits! Wouldn't it cause resentment among the people?"
Others quickly flattered Mr. Li.
"Since the Queen Mother is the emperor's weakness, then next time, continue to use the banner of the Queen Mother!"
"Hurry up and let the emperor marry more beauties into the palace! With beauties, he won't have so much energy to focus on these things!"
"Too young and energetic! How much do you want to do at such a young age!" Mr. Li said disdainfully.
Wen Jin was walking beside them and heard these words clearly.
She couldn't help but be stunned... She had never thought before that there were so many ministers in the court who were not convinced by Yu'er!
They couldn't bear to see him being young and energetic, and they couldn't bear to see what he was doing. They deliberately stumbled him and poked at his weaknesses!
Several people were separated from Mr. Li.
Wen Jin didn't pay attention and instead followed these courtiers.
She was about to turn around and go back to chase Mr. Li, but she heard these courtiers whisper, "The drought in the south is not as serious as they reported!"
"Li Chang and the others hope that the imperial court will allocate more disaster relief funds to deal with the drought in the south! Just wait and see, the people recommended to deal with the disaster will definitely be Li Chang's direct relatives!"
Ah! I see!
He repeatedly stressed that sending a fleet was a waste of money from the treasury!
I have repeatedly emphasized that the drought in the south is the time to spend money!
It turned out that he wanted to line his own pockets! These moths! Shuo Shu!
"People's hearts are fickle!" Wen Jin frowned, "I remember that among the officials just now, there were also officials who I personally recommended!"
"Back then, they were upright, just, and caring about the people...and now they have turned traitor."
Wen Jin looked down at her hands and was shocked to find...she had no shadow!
"Uh... am I a lonely ghost now?"
She raised her eyes again to look at the bright and dazzling sunlight...
"Even if I am a lonely ghost, it seems that I am a super powerful ghost. I am not even afraid of the sun!"
Wen Jin smiled self-deprecatingly. In her current state, what can she do to help Yu'er?
Help him collect evidence and bring down Li Chang and his gang of morons?
She's afraid she doesn't have that much time!
She didn't know how long she could stay here before she had to go back to the time and space of repentance!
"That's right! The time and space of repentance!" Wen Jin's eyes narrowed slightly and he said in a cold voice, "These imperial officials! Those who eat the royal salary, are respected by the people, but whose virtues are not worthy of their position! They are the ones who should enter the time and space of repentance!"
"Let them fall into their sins! Be whipped by the condemnation of their conscience!"
"Uh... do they have such a thing as 'conscience'?"
"I'm afraid they don't have a conscience. Even if they did, they would have already fed it to the dogs."
"But they must have fear! If they enter the time and space of repentance, they will definitely fall into deep fear and torture, right?"
