C148 I Forgot!
C148 I Forgot!
Xiao Yun was like a bomber as he attacked.
Leng Xiaohan laughed and said, "You still have a reputation?"
"What? Why don't I have a reputation? Really. "
Xiao Yun couldn't help but laugh.
If one were to talk about reputation, it would be a very mysterious thing to Xiao Yun.
Many years ago, it had been very bad, and then it had suddenly turned 180 degrees. In the end, it was not easy for it to get better, but it started to get worse again.
Now that there was such a thing added, it really did not seem to be a big deal.
Leng Xiaohan smiled and said, "Alright, alright. Didn't you just stay for a night? Don't tell me you want to stay in this old man's room? I'm afraid you will scold the street when you wake up in the morning. "
Xiao Yun rolled his eyes and said, "There are no guest rooms?"
"There are."
"Why not go there?" ___ asked.
"No cleaning."
"This..."
Xiao Yun's eyes twitched a few times. He had a feeling that Leng Xiaohan was plotting something. In any case, Leng Xiaohan must be scheming against him.
He helplessly rubbed between his eyebrows and said, "If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
He had come here to see the beauty, but he didn't expect that no one would see him. Instead, he stayed in her room.
He didn't know what this beauty was doing every day. She didn't go home in the middle of the night, and he didn't know where she went. It really made him worry!
Xiao Yun thought fiercely. Then, he left the Leng family and returned to his home.
When he reached the door and was about to walk in, Xiao Yun was suddenly stunned.
"What's wrong, young master?"
"I... I forgot!"
"What did I forget? "
"[I'm going to court today!]"
Not many people knew about this.
His Majesty told Xiao Yun, but Xiao Yun did not tell anyone else.
Therefore, when he was in Leng family, he got up late.
If this happened again, time would be completely delayed. It was already late in the morning!
He hurriedly rushed to the Imperial Palace.
On the other hand, some things were also happening in the Imperial Palace.
Originally, during a court session, when everyone discussed the issue of the disaster, it was about time to end. No one came out to report or anything like that.
However, His Majesty did not let them pass. He frowned and looked down and said, "I originally planned to let Xiao Yun come over today. Everyone should discuss the most urgent matter of the current disaster, but he has yet to arrive..."
All the civil and military officials were stunned.
They did not care about the important matters in the disaster.
Everyone was paying attention to the other two pieces of information.
Why was Xiao Yun able to come to the royal court? !
Secondly, why did His Majesty ask him to come, and why did he dare not come?!
For a moment, the scene below became chaotic. Everyone was obviously furious at Xiao Yun.
And this made His Majesty feel extremely comfortable!
He had clearly ordered him to come over.
Yet, this fellow actually didn't come? !
Was this considered defying the decree?
He had sent someone to report to the Xiao family early in the morning, but in the end, Xiao Yun was not at home!
Could this be considered as running away?
This kid was really going too far. He even dared to go against his will. If this continued, what would he do in the future? Is he going to push me down from the throne?!
The more His Majesty thought about it, the angrier he got. That was why he told everyone that Xiao Yun wasn't here in front of everyone. Now, it was like poking a hornet's nest.
The more everyone hated Xiao Yun, the happier His Majesty became.
He had a feeling that he couldn't get revenge himself, and that someone else had helped him get revenge. It was an indescribable feeling of satisfaction.
After waiting for an hour, the old officials could no longer stand.
His Majesty felt that it wasn't a good idea to create a disturbance like this.
He said, "I recently learned that in the disaster, there were some merchants who used the civilians' destitution to exchange a small amount of food for a large amount of land! What do you think about this?"
With one sentence, the civil and military officials of the entire court became restless again.
Because some of these things were done in the Imperial Court!
Circulating land would never be outdated, and there would always be people doing it.
After all, land was the only fixed property recognized by people in the world.
Whether a family had money or not depended on how much land they had.
As for animal husbandry, it was similar to agriculture on the surface, but there was a saying, "Wealth and wealth does not count!"
For example, a pig plague could make many people bankrupt.
However, if they did not collect grain, it did not matter. They could just plant more next year.
Therefore, a government official was forced out by many people with their eyes.
He looked up at His Majesty, trembling, and then said, "Your Majesty. The most important thing on the road of business is to be willing and willing to be accepted. If the people can't eat food, they will starve to death. Since they are all going to starve to death, the official said. What's the point of having farmland in their hands? But as long as they got the food, it was better to stay alive than to die a good death. As long as he could survive, there would be a way sooner or later. In short, he had to get through this disaster first. As for the food, it was more expensive. Apart from the food for the disaster, every grain was saved from the teeth of each family. Naturally, it was much more expensive than usual, so this kind of transaction... This can be considered normal. "
The corners of His Majesty's eyes immediately wrinkled.
Just based on these words, he knew that there were definitely many people involved in this matter in the royal court.
Thus, he turned to look at the other officials.
All of them subconsciously turned their heads.
Of course, not all of them were involved in this matter, but some of them who didn't want to meddle in other people's business.
Prime Minister Lee was the one who stood out for this matter.
His Majesty could not help but sigh in his heart. Although this fellow was a little annoying on normal days, this fellow was still reliable at crucial moments!
As he spoke, Prime Minister Lee said loudly, "Your Majesty, this matter isn't appropriate."
" Oh? How is it inappropriate?"
"Although on the surface, this is a deal that is willing to accept it. But in reality, it is not the case! The food that the civilians may lack is only temporary. This is not normal. Moreover, at such a critical moment, using grain to exchange for land was like using grain to threaten the other side. Such actions cannot be called the path of merchants. They can't even be considered the path of humanity! "
Prime Minister Lee turned his head to look at the crowd. Indeed, he saw that everyone looked like they wanted to kill him.
However, he continued, "After the disaster, these people only had a few meals. How will they live in the future if they sell their land that they rely on to survive? How will they support their families? At that time, they would probably be forced to become raiders and even form a rebellion. It would affect the rebuilding of our Great Qin Country after the disaster. No matter how you think about it, it wouldn't be a good thing, right? Some people would abandon the safety of the world for their own personal interests. What was there to discuss about this matter? Naturally, we must punish them severely! "
His Majesty listened to his words and nodded repeatedly. He said," Look, this is what people should say for the sake of the country and the people. What's wrong with all of you? You actually agree with such a matter of harming the people? "
He took the opportunity to voice out his thoughts.
This also meant that he would have to go against a large portion of the officials in the court.
And he had sufficient confidence.
After all, no matter how one looked at it, the benefits were greater than the disadvantages.
Zhao Wuji thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "Your majesty, this is not just a consideration. The merchants are also a very important part of Great Qin. If they are punished because of this, who will do anything? Who will be the Businessman? If no one in the world worked for business, then there would be no deal. If there was no transaction, the farmers' food would rot in the fields. There was also no way to trade vegetables and fruits. Could it be that the entire Great Qin Country was going to be turned into a land of men and women again? A scene of self-sufficiency?"
His words were indeed somewhat persuasive.
No matter how you looked at it, it was a type of unreasonable reasoning.
Prime Minister Lee said calmly, "Businessmen strive for profits. Benefits can maintain an extravagant life, as long as there are benefits. Businessmen will exist, and they will not be criticized for this matter. It will completely separate them from the ranks of merchants. "
"This is just a subjective assumption. You are not a merchant. How can you know?"
