Chapter 10: Mount Reno

be an official if he had not killed his life.even though he is now in North Korea, he still doesn't want to spend more time in politics. You can see that he has never stepped into the cabinet office....Chapter 10 Renault Mountain

half an hour later, the Ministry of Household Shang Shu Renault Mountain arrived late.

when he came to the Xi Zheng Hall of the East Palace, Renault Mountain arched his hand and said casually to Li Chen, "Chen Reno Mountain, see his Royal Highness the Prince."

Li Chenmian looked at Renault Mountain without expression and said, "you are a subject. Why don't you kneel when you see me"

Renault Mountain sneered and said confidently, "of course, my subjects are subjects, but according to the rules of the ancestral family, subjects only bow down when they see the emperor, empress and empress dowager, and all they have to do is to salute the crown prince."

bang.

Li Chen's playing chapter slammed heavily on the counter, "since I am a prison country, seeing me is like a father coming in person. Now I am in front of you on behalf of the father emperor. It is a crime of great rebellion if you do not worship you!"

with this loud bang, several Jin Yiwei immediately rushed into the temple and stared at Renault Mountain murderously, as if as soon as Li Chen gave the order, they would immediately pounce on it and tear it to pieces.

Renault Mountain was startled.

he didn't expect that Li Chen would not follow the routine when he just started supervising the country.

this directly uses imperial power to oppress others, which is tantamount to completely overturning the rules of their court.

Renault Mountain was surprised and angry. In his opinion, even the emperor had to strike a political balance with their ministers in court. How could he have the courage to challenge the rules of the game if he was only a prince of the country

"Prince, are you going to kill Wei Chen"

Renault Mountain kept an eye on Li Chen, thinking that Li Chen could not have the courage to touch him.

otherwise, the civil and military dynasties of Manchuria would have instantly rioted and set up the crown prince.

"his Royal Highness should think clearly. Once you do this, it will make civil and military officials feel cold, but no one will dare to do things for the prince."

such a naked threat made Li Chen laugh angrily.

"drag this rebellious minister down to me and cut it down!"

Li Chen ordered that the Jin Yiwei of the East Factory, no matter who you are, how many grades of officials you are, and the way of brainwashing education in the East Factory for many years, has already made them carve the concept of imperial supremacy into their bones.

several wolf-like Jinyiwei came up, and when Renault Mountain was set up around it, it was about to be towed away.

Renault Mountain really panicked.

he found that his reliance and certainty seemed like a bull** joke in front of Li Chen.

Li Chen never intended to play according to their so-called rules of the game from the very beginning.

"Prince! How can you convince all officials that you are so cruel "

Li Chen said coldly, "the head of a bachelor's degree in Wenyuan Pavilion is not enough to make you fear me. Then, coupled with your head of a household Shangshu, I would like to see whether it is you literati whose bones are hard, or is my knife sharper."

"do you think I will play the so-called compromise balance with you and slowly win back power If you think too much, Zhao Xuanji may be qualified, but you are just an ant, and a small household Shangshu dares to get involved in the struggle for imperial power. I'll show you what happens if you make the wrong choice. "

Li Chen's words fell to the ground, the sleeves were swung, and Jin Yiwei didn't say a word. Regardless of the crazy struggle and shouting of Reno Mountain, he dragged it up and left.

the screams came to an abrupt end outside the gate of the temple.

A moment later, a Jin Yiwei returned to Li Chen with a bloody head in his hand, which belonged to Renault Mountain. He opened his eyes wide and died in his grave, with unparalleled horror and regret on his face.

"your Highness, your Highness, the rebellious minister, Mount Reno, has been brought to justice."

"it so happens that the state treasury is empty. I went and copied my home in Renault Mountain. Within its three ethnic groups, all adult men were demoted as slaves and expelled from the army. All women over 14 years old were sent to government and female branches. The rest of the old, weak, women and children were expelled from the capital and were never allowed to enter Beijing."

"if you summon Xu Changqing, the minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, I would like to see how many heads the Ministry of Household Affairs will have to cut off today before it can pick out one who can do things for me."

Houbu Shangshu is at least a second-grade official of the imperial court, and leads one, which can be said to be one of the participants in the power core of the empire.

but Mount Renault was just cut down.

the storm caused by this incident fermented rapidly. The first time most people heard the news, they thought they had heard it wrong, or the prince had gone crazy.

Li Chen doesn't care much about how the outside world reacts.

he was looking at Xu Changqing, who came hurriedly from the household department in front of him, gasping for breath before he could breathe calmly.

"Weichen Household Department Zuo Shilang, Xu Changqing, see his Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

compared with Renault Mountain, Xu Changqing needs to know too many rules.

after entering the main hall, he bowed his head and bowed, his hands drooping, not daring to look at Li Chen's face. After kneeling directly, the mountain called a thousand years old.

at this time, Xu Changqing only knew that his immediate boss, Renoshan, had been called to the East Palace by the prince, but he did not know exactly what to do and where the person was.

it's just that although the pool on the main hall has been cleaned, he may clearly see the blood stains, which makes him feel a little uneasy.

"give me a gift."

Li Chen said faintly, "Renault Mountain is dead."

"his head was placed beside you a quarter of an hour ago. If you look carefully, you should be able to see the trace."

Xu Changqing's eyes jumped so straight that he was so scared that he dared not breathe.

(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});

he turned his head quickly and realized that this was a great crisis, as well as a great opportunity for him.

perhaps from the second child of ten thousand years, it depends on this opportunity to cross the path that has made countless officials look forward to the ocean and sigh all their lives to achieve the second grade and lead the first Shang Shu.

only briefly weighed the pros and cons. Xu Changqing immediately said, "I don't know what crime Reynolds committed, but since it made his Royal Highness angry, he must have deserved to die."

Li Chen laughed and said, "you are smarter than him."

Xu Changqing bowed his head and dared not look at Li Chen. He said, "my minister only knows that the dragon body of the emperor is not safe and cannot handle national affairs, and the prince is the supervisor of the country, so everyone in the world has to listen to the prince."

Li Chen is more and more satisfied.

now he does not have the slightest foundation in the imperial court, it can be said that Zhao Xuanji is everywhere.

and he urgently needs to set up his own team and control his own power.

well, for the selection of these teams, the first thing is to be smart and ambitious enough, and the second is ability.

A person who is too smart will not follow him at this time.

only those who are smart and ambitious will follow him when his foundation is weak, so that if he wins in the future, he will get more rewards.

as for ability, after scientific research and years of ups and downs, the Household Department, which can climb to one of the six departments, will become the second leader. How bad will such a person be

"look at this."

Li Chen no longer mentioned the matter of Renault Mountain, but threw the chapter of Nanhe Province in front of Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing respectfully held the chapter in his hands and read it carefully.

as soon as he looked at the content, he knew what was going on with the prince.

Xu Changqing put down the chapter and said carefully, "your Highness, the disaster in Nanhe Province has already happened. Over the past two months, more than ten chapters have been submitted, and each one is more and more serious."

"then why not provide disaster relief" Li Chen asked.

"the treasury is empty."

Xu Changqing said honestly, "now the treasury deposits only 3.702 million yuan, and even the salaries used to pay officials all over the world are no longer enough, not to mention disaster relief. If there is no 5.002 million yuan for disaster relief in Nanhe Province, it is impossible to stop it. It's a drop in the bucket, your Highness."

"I remember that the treasury collects 60.002 million yuan in tax revenue a year. Why is it so empty" Li Chen asked with a frown.

Xu Changqing said with a wry smile: "the salaries of local officials, the severe drought in the north has lasted for more than a year, the floods in the south have already begun the year before last, coupled with the gradual increase in military expenditure and salaries, and." when Xu Changqing said this, Xu Changqing realized that he had mentioned things he should not have mentioned, so he immediately hesitated to say so.

"you said I wouldn't blame you." Li Chen said calmly.

Xu Changqing gritted his teeth when he heard the words and said, "starting this year, King Han, King Chu, King Zhao, King Jingyang and other kings have all begun not to turn in their annual contributions for various reasons, and most of their income has been lost."

Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.

King!

under the Daqin state system, after the vassal king became a vassal, he had military power, political power and tax power in the territory. He only had to pay a certain amount of money to the imperial court every year, which was equivalent to a state in the middle of a country.

two hundred years after the founding of the Qin Dynasty, these vassal kings have become a huge cancer.

"I see."

Li Chen didn't say much about the vassal king.

now that the emperor may die at any time and the empire is shaky, not to mention Li Chen wants to cut the clan, his uncles do not want to wait for the emperor to die and hold high the banner of the king of diligence to overthrow him.

so to target the king of the clan, you must wait for the real accession to the throne.

at this time, we still have to solve the problem of disaster in China first.

"after years of disasters, the imperial court allocated a lot of money to disaster relief. I know that it is impossible for the following officials to come down without a little oil. If you report the names of several corrupt officials you know to the East Factory, the East Factory will deal with them."

Li Chen, who was short of money, turned his attention on corrupt officials.

the poorer a country is, the richer both categories of people are.

one is corrupt officials, and the other is merchants.

"also, what is the price of grain, oil, rice, noodles and other necessities on the market today"

Xu Changqing was frightened by the word Dongchang and subconsciously replied, "prices are soaring, and the price of rice has risen to an outrageous level. At the beginning of the year, five coins can buy a jin of good-looking new rice, but now, even moldy old rice can't be bought without 30 coins."

"most of the grain on the market is concentrated in the hands of those big grain merchants, who work together to drive up prices. earlier this year, the Household Ministry borrowed grain from the three major grain merchants in the capital in the name of the imperial court, but they were not only penniless, but also complained about poverty and grievances, which is really hateful!"

"go and gather all the people in charge of the three major grain merchants in the capital, and say that I will host a banquet for them at the East Palace tomorrow."

Li Chen sneered and said, "it's not so easy to get rich when the country is hard to make money. These businessmen usually amass a lot of money, but in the period of the national disaster, they still want to make such ill-gotten gains, so that the swords of the imperial court can't fall on their necks" same test question.an examination question that couldn't be simpler for Li Chen.Emperor Daxing just said that to be an emperor, you have to learn to be unsentimental, and this examination question is...
