"Ahem!"
Before Ye Wulong expressed his position, Zhao Gao on the side snorted and coughed twice.
Officials from Jia Dao's party are really crazy.
How dare you clamor for the abolition of the West Factory? You really don't know how to live or die.
Although Xichang is not his, Zhao Gao's, and Zhao Gao doesn't like Xichang, but... as both eunuchs, he still has a strong sense of vigilance in times of peace.
This group of Jia Dang dared to let the ignorant emperor dismantle the west factory today, and the east factory tomorrow. The day after tomorrow they will be the Jin Yiwei, and then they will attack the eunuchs who are united under the supervision of the Secretary.
The so-called temptation is to dig a hole today and collapse the embankment tomorrow.
Hearing Zhao Gao's cold snort.
The Jia Party members couldn't help but feel weaker and temporarily stopped asking for memorials.
In essence, they don't think they will succeed. The purpose of the memorial is just a test and a warning.
If Jia Dao's family is dead, they will die, but they cannot continue to expand the attack and attack other officials wantonly.
This is a form of self-protection rather than seeking justice for Jia Dao.
"My lords, this proposal is reasonable!"
Ye Wulong, who was suddenly sitting on the dragon chair, glanced at the ministers: "Preach my decree and order Xichang to release the innocent people. This matter ends here."
"At the same time, from now on, the West Factory will be abolished, and all the people from the original West Factory will be withdrawn without any mistake!"
Ah...this!
All the officials were confused.
Really, really...I agree!
Not only did they let innocent people go, but they also removed the West Factory?
All the officials were a little disbelieving, thinking that they were still dreaming. They all opened their eyes wide, and then someone pinched their thighs.
It hurts!
Zhao Gao, who was standing aside, was also shocked.
It was completely unexpected that Ye Wulong would say such words and agree to the request of Jia Party officials.
That's the West Factory!
The emperor's minions.
It was originally established to control Dongchang and Baiguan.
Now, you just want to withdraw?
This is too enjoyable, too childish.
Yue Zhaogao was a little confused for a moment.
However, Hunjun always did ridiculous things, and Zhao Gao didn't bother to interfere.
After all, he is not his godson, so he doesn’t feel bad if he withdraws.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
"Your Majesty, ten thousand years!"
After the officials came to their senses, they were afraid that Ye Wulong would regret it.
Hurry up and send your compliments one by one.
I wish I could praise Ye Wulong so much.
"quiet!"
"Discuss the next thing!"
The eunuch in front of the palace cleared his throat.
Only then did all the officials calm down their excitement and stand up one by one.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
A military attaché stood up and said: "Dong Ying, the governor of Xiliang, reported that the Eight Qiang tribes have recently been in rebellion, harassing counties and counties, harming our people of Dayu, and plundering people's property. I request the imperial court to allocate 500,000 taels of silver and 200,000 shi of grain for use." Attack the various tribes of the Eight Qiang and resolve the danger in our western frontier!"
It was the civil servant who made the request just now.
Now is the test for the generals.
They want money and food again.
The officials were collectively disdainful.
Dong Ying, the governor of Xiliang, has become increasingly arrogant in recent years.
His appetite grew bigger and bigger, and every time he reached out to the court on the grounds that the Eight Qiang were causing trouble.
In fact, it was about raising bandits to respect themselves. Who doesn't know that the Eight Qiang King and Dong Ying are brothers who are so good that they wear a pair of trousers.
How could it be possible to attack Xiliang County every day!
Therefore, this money must not be given.
[Accept the proposal of the officials and allocate grain to Dong Ying, the prefect of Xiliang, and reward 2 million shi of grain! 】
Ye Wulong calculated that in the Yu Dynasty, one stone of grain was about 10 taels of silver.
1.8 million shi, that is 18 million taels.
Deducting 500,000 taels, it is equivalent to a net profit of 17.5 million taels.
I know it well.
Ye Wulong raised his right hand slightly: "It is abominable that the Eight Qiang are causing chaos."
“Without money and food, how can frontline soldiers win the war?”
Really?
All officials were shocked on the spot.
Don't you, the foolish emperor, put money into your own treasury every day to build a leopard house, eat, drink and have fun?
Why are you suddenly willing to let go today?
Of course, the most anxious and angry person in this matter was the Ministry of Revenue. Only one servant came forward and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, there is a flood in Huainan today. All the money and food have been used for disaster relief. The Ministry of Revenue really can't spare any money." A grain of grain can’t bring you half a tael of silver!”
The implication is, don’t touch the pockets of our household department.
Cry poor!
No money!
"It doesn't matter, I'll let the inner treasury come out of this money!" Ye Wulong firmly remembered this Minister of Household Affairs.
The officials were stunned again.
Out of the inner library!
Are you willing to pay for your own money?
Even Zhao Gai on the side was shocked.
Then he showed a playful look.
Then he glanced at Cao Zhengchun on the other side.
Could it be that this guy Tong Guan has awakened?
Or is it that the emperor is ready to completely rely on Tong Guan, and wants to use Tong Guan to suppress me and regain the power of the Supervisor of Ceremonies.
Suddenly, Zhao Gao's mind was wide open and he thought a lot.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
"Your Majesty is sympathetic to the soldiers on the front line, and I respect you all!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I would like to thank Your Majesty on behalf of Xiliang Prefect Dong Ying!"
Ye Qing was not very happy.
Instead, he said coldly: "I gave Xiliang money and food, but the ministers also told me that if I hear that the Eight Qiang are causing trouble in Xiliang, I will chop off Dong Ying's head."
"There are many people in this world who want to be governors of Xiliang!"
"There are many talents who can destroy the Eight Qiang!"
In the main hall, you can hear a needle drop instantly.
Emperor, what does this mean?
Warn Dong Ying?
Or, we are planning to replace the governor of Xiliang and move the powerful princes to the west!
All of a sudden, the officials also started to think crazy.
Just when all the officials were thinking about this matter, Zhao Gao spoke with a smile.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
Zhao Gao has something to say!
Ye Wulong and all the officials focused their attention on Zhao Gao.
According to the rules, eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics and are not qualified to discuss matters in the palace.
But, who is Zhao Gao?
If you have control of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, you can be awarded a favor.
Another group of eunuchs under his command were waving flags and shouting support in the court.
All the civil and military achievements of the DPRK and China must be given face.
Because those who don't give face are already gravely covered with grass.
"Your Majesty, Jia Dao colluded with the official Zhang Xing to conspire against him, and he has been executed now!" Zhao Gao smiled and glanced at the people in the hall:
"I think we should discuss the new ministerial order earlier today!"
Each ministry has a minister, who is the chief official of each ministry.
The Shangshu Ling is the head of all ministers, and is in charge of all ministers in name.
Power is equivalent to the Prime Minister.
So this position is extremely important.
What Zhao Gao wants today is this position.
Zhao Gao is not talking about money, food, or the abolition of the West Factory.
Only this Shangshu Order is worthy of his action.
Civilians and military officials strive for small profits, but he wants big ones.
After hearing this, all the officials' eyes flashed.
At that moment, an official stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think that Cai Jin, the Minister of Rites, is a highly respected and talented person who deserves to be the Minister!"
After this person finished speaking, dozens of people stood up and said in unison: "I second my opinion!"
Those who support Cai Jin are all eunuchs.
Two waves of people took the lead, and more officials, big and small, followed suit.
This makes others quite passive.
Obviously, Zhao Gao's approach of cutting through the mess with a sharp knife and directly targeting Shangshu Ling caught everyone off guard.
Other factions also want to nominate their own people.
However, it was not possible to form a unified opinion for the time being.
[Accept Zhao Gao's suggestion and appoint Cai Jin as Shangshu Ling, and you can get five thousand bad guys! 】
