"The Governor of Yanmen should be killed!"
In the hall, there were shouts and curses. A memorial was thrown on the ground, and the emperor raised his eyebrows and slapped the table: "Heavy snowfall, only one horse farm was reported to be damaged, but the county's casualties were concealed. Does he think I can be deceived?!"
Now Zhao State has a set of standard procedures for disaster relief. The disaster situation is divided into ten grades. Once a disaster occurs, officials should immediately survey the disaster, count the casualties, and report it to the court at every level. In the event of a major disaster, the governor of the state must visit to investigate, and may use the treasury as appropriate to calm the people first. The results of the disaster investigation should be compiled into a book, which will be reviewed by the Ministry of Households. Any late reporting, concealment or false reporting shall be severely punished!
Such strict disaster relief procedures have been in operation for several years. Even if floods and droughts occur, they can be resolved in time. Unexpectedly, the first malfeasance happened in Bingzhou! Moreover, it is also the key point of Yanmen County. If the Xianbei and Qiang Hu gangs are on the side, will the Yanmen prefect also conceal the report and kill the good and take credit? !
What's even more embarrassing is the origin of the prefect of Yanmen. This son is not a son of an aristocratic family, but a poor family elected by the system. Is it possible to hide the report so boldly, is there a problem with the local treasury? If the treasury is empty, the basket will be even bigger. Officials up and down Yanmen, none of them can escape!
One ring after another, just thinking about it makes people terrified. Bingzhou, which he managed with his own hands, could make such a mess, how could Liang Feng not be angry? !
The emperor was furious, and all the maids in the palace fell to the ground, shivering. Liang Feng didn't even look at them, and said sternly, "Recruit Zhang Bin, Xi Jian, Duan Qin, Yan Bin, Cui Ji, and Guo Xing to enter the palace immediately!"
All the important ministers of the Taiwan Pavilion have been named, and this is a big deal. How dare the inner servant dare to neglect, and trot all the way to pass the decree. Not long after, a few people arrived at the Hanging Palace and met the Son of Heaven.
Conversation is forbidden, and there is no chance for others to spy on it. Knowing the importance of the relationship, the servants all withdrew three feet. It is so, and from time to time, I can hear the scolding from the hall. After talking for an hour, all the ministers retire one after another. Another file has been sent in one after another.
Seeing that the palace gate was about to be locked, the movement of the Hanging Palace had not stopped. Guo Nushi frowned and whispered to Xiao Huangmen beside her, "Quickly invite General Yi into the palace."
His Majesty has not been so angry for a long time. If you want to calm down this thunderous anger, I am afraid that only General Yi can do it.
Brows furrowed, Liang Feng quickly flipped through the file in his hand. In addition to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Household, there are also secret reports from Xinling. The things hidden under the dossier are simply shocking. Even if Zhang Bin tried to persuade him, he didn't intend to let the Yanmen prefect. If you don't kill, how can you set an example? !
While watching, someone suddenly said, "Report to Your Majesty, the hussar general asks to see you."
Liang Feng raised his head suddenly, fire in his eyes: "Who told him? Leaked the forbidden Chinese language, what a courage!"
This crime is really deadly. Guo Nushi immediately knelt down: "Your Majesty forgive me."
Guo Nushi was a confidential confidant who accompanied Liang's house all the way. Now that there is no owner of the harem, he is in charge of most of the affairs of the palace. However, when the emperor was angry today, she didn't dare to justify, but just bowed her head and fell to the ground.
"My lord, it was the minister who finished the chores at hand and rushed into the palace." Before he could be summoned, a voice passed through the gate of the palace. I saw Yi Yan entered the hall, lifted his robe, and knelt on the ground.
This is extremely rude, not to mention the unruly title of "Master". However, the emperor just frowned and said, "Get up. Have you had dinner yet?"
Yi Chang stood up: "Not yet."
"Pass the meal." Liang Feng threw down the brush in his hand and commanded.
Guo Nushi breathed a sigh of relief, got up carefully, and backed out. It seemed that it was right to call General Yi here. If it weren't for him, the emperor would not know when he would be willing to eat.
When the palace servants went out, Liang Feng said: "Are you here to persuade me not to kill the Yanmen prefect? This is not just concealment of the disaster, but also charges of depletion of the treasury and misappropriation of military resources. It's not too much to decide!"
The emperor's tone was still not good, but Yi Yan shook his head: "This minister is a military general, and I don't care about political affairs. My lord might as well have a meal and rest for a while."
This sentence made Liang Feng stunned for a moment, but the evil fire disappeared a bit. The palace servant took the opportunity to serve dinner, and then Liang Feng got up, cleaned his hands, and sat down with Yiyan.
The emperor's meal is not extravagant, each meal only has six courses. Even if you eat with the Prince or Yiyan, you just add some weight and the dishes remain the same.
Holding up two chopsticks, Liang Feng suddenly said: "I know there is a saying that the punishment cannot be punished by a doctor, and corruption will not be banned. However, at the beginning of the dynasty, we must not break the rules first. Hundreds of lives, if you don't have it, you'll lose it! How can you govern the country without killing him? What's more, Yanmen is a frontier. If you put such waste at the frontier, I don't know how many soldiers will die. I don't peel and plant grass, I just kill chickens to show the monkeys. …”
He did not want to learn from Zhu Yuanzhang. No matter how strict the corruption standards are, and how perverted the punishment standards are, won't it still be able to stop the word "corruption"? Killing tens of thousands of well-fed beetles, and then filling up more hungry ones, is the job of idiots. He can reward and turn a blind eye to those gray areas. But no matter how much money you make, you can't miss the state affairs!
Just because that person was selected by the system, he must be severely punished!
However, full of anger, Yi Yan did not provoke a rebuttal. He just picked up the golden spoon, scooped a bowl of soup for Liang Feng, and handed it over: "The lord wants to kill, he can kill himself. Why do you get angry about this. This soup is good, drink some to warm your stomach first."
The attitude of this minister made Liang Feng speechless. Taking the bowl, he took a sip. The soup was warm and refreshing, and the anger in his chest was eased in an instant.
After being disturbed, Liang Feng stopped talking and started to eat quietly. When he put down his chopsticks again, he sighed: "Boyuan, have I changed?"
Just a few days ago, the prince and the officials invited him to change his birthday to the "Qianqiu Festival". The birthday of the king of a country should be celebrated in the whole world. The prince was full of filial piety, and Liang Feng naturally agreed. Since the Son of Heaven is a kingdom, no kind of celebration can be exaggerated.
Everyone around is slowly changing. Even the prince Liang Rong should think carefully when he speaks, without losing the manners of monarch and minister. The more stable the dynasty is and the more the territory expands, the stronger his power will be.
Not to mention the high-profile scolding and disobedience, no one even dared to look him in the eye. In this lonely and closed environment, has he changed his appearance? Become no longer like the original him, but like a downright emperor
As if he was just angry, he couldn't even restrain his killing intent. I just want to get rid of those people who don't respect the king's life.
"The lord hasn't changed. If it wasn't for that, he wouldn't have killed a county governor in anger for the sake of some Qianshou Li people."
The answer to his voice was flat and unwavering. Liang Feng raised his eyes and looked over. The man opposite was staring at him, with no fear, no flattery, only deep concern. This is the only person who dares to call him "Lord" in private, not "Your Majesty".
Liang Feng stretched out his hand and held the opponent's hand. It was not a pair of catkins, with distinct muscles and bones, broad and powerful. Even galloping horses can hold them.
"Zhang Bin is right. Even me, I can't kill the prefect of a county without authorization." Liang Feng said slowly, "There is also the Ministry of Punishment and the Dali Temple. What kind of crime must be punished. Killing It will only make people panic.”
The world is undecided, and he cannot act rashly. Can be punished, demoted, or even exiled. As long as it is not heinous, officials are not allowed to kill without authorization. Punishment is not good for the doctor, nor is it good for the common man. This has been the rule since time immemorial. Political stability is far more important than concealment and corruption.
This is more in line with the idea of "king".
Yi Yan didn't answer, just shook it back and wrapped his palm.
From the palm, came the familiar temperature. It allows him to find his way and anchor himself.
Liang Feng closed his eyes gently and leaned on the Jindui behind him: "Maybe I should go out for a walk. I'm bored in the palace every day, and sooner or later I'm going to get bored. I want to see with my own eyes and take care of this country."
"The north is stable, the lord can go on a cruise. Or go to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen." Yi Yan's voice became a little higher. Rather than being bored in the palace, he certainly hoped that the lord could walk around, or be like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. sky!
"Feng Taishan?" Liang Feng smiled and opened his eyes, "Do you know how much it will cost to go to Taishan? Well, anyway, Jiangdong hasn't been beaten down, so it won't be a waste of money."
This is also the most distressing place for Yiyan. The lord of his family is rich all over the world, but he spends very little on himself. The palaces all use the gardens of the former dynasty, and the palace has not been expanded. On the contrary, the lifang and river canals in Luoyang City were rebuilt, the streets were leveled, the sewage was drained smoothly, and the people lived more comfortably.
What's the point of just sealing Mount Tai? The protagonist's martial arts skills are no less than Han Wu and Guang Wu.
"Then wait for the southern land to be leveled, and then go to Mount Tai!" Yi Yan said firmly.
"Hahaha." Liang Feng couldn't help laughing out loud, "Forget about Mount Tai, I would like to go to the seaside. The two seaports, Haixing and Yantai, were built by me. It's time to go and see. You can see the sights of several states.”
When you go, you will go east along the Yellow River all the way, and when you come back, you will take the canal and pass through Yecheng. This trip, he will definitely be able to see countless things he wants to see. with this person next to you.
"I will definitely protect the lord and stay there." Yi Yan replied as if he knew what he was thinking.
"Aren't you afraid of seasickness?" Liang Feng raised his eyebrows.
"The emperor's dragon boat, I'm afraid that he can run a horse, how can he get seasick?" Yi Yan said sternly.
Recalling the past of swimming and rowing in the Lingzhi Pond, both of them laughed.
Slowly getting up from the couch, Liang Feng pretended to straighten the hem of his clothes: "Aiqing has done a good job in admonishing, do you want a reward?"
"Can Your Majesty reward your ministers?" Yi Yan asked with his head up, not moving. In the gray-blue eyes, there is a smile.
"That's it!"
Staying outside the hall all the time, he saw that the Son of Heaven had left the Hall of Hanging Arches and headed towards the sleeping hall. Guo Nushi breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the courtier beside her: "The saint has General Yi to serve, so he doesn't have to be on duty tonight."
After just one meal, the emperor's anger was completely dissipated. Really only General Yi has the most sacred heart. I just hope that tomorrow morning will be smoother.
After all the matters were settled, Guo Nushi took another look at the bedroom where the lights were gradually extinguished, and quietly retreated.
