At this moment, all the civil and military officials of the dynasty were already in a quarrel.
Some people asked for the cessation of taxation, and naturally there were also flatterers who flattered the queen, stood up to speak for the queen, and supported the continuation of taxation.
There was a quarrel between the two parties.
"Dong dong dong!"
At this time, there was a heavy knock on the table.
"Noisy! Please give me some peace!"
Immediately afterwards, Xu Que gave a deep drink.
The noise in the entire court suddenly stopped!
Everyone was startled and turned to look in the direction of the high seat, with confused expressions on their faces.
When did the emperor come
Why did you come out and shout
"Everyone is useless... Hey, my dears, there is no need to argue. I can't even solve trivial matters. I really don't know what the use of raising you is. Just leave this matter alone and leave it to me!"
Xu Que said loudly, with an arrogant and coaxing expression on his face, and his eyes clearly disliked everyone.
When the ministers heard this, they were instantly confused again.
What
What did the emperor just say
Leave this matter to him
Damn it, the emperor's disease is getting more and more serious. The Queen really doesn't want to take care of it
No, the Queen has been having troubles twice recently, and nothing seems right no matter how you look at her!
"Huh? Why are you standing there stunned? Can't you hear what I said?"
When Xu Que saw everyone stunned, his face turned dark immediately and he shouted in a deep voice.
The ministers remained silent and lowered their heads to avoid looking at Xu Que.
I must have heard everything.
But... How can a person who has never handled government affairs in eight years take over this hot potato at this time
The key point is that the emperor almost brought the Eastern Tang Dynasty to ruin before. If he intervenes at this moment, wouldn't he think that the country is not overthrown quickly enough
"Did I hear you correctly? His Majesty said that he would come to handle this matter?" An elderly minister leaned towards others and asked in a low voice.
"Am I hallucinating?"
"I seem to be hearing hallucinations too... It must be because I have been working too hard recently, so I have become ill."
"Don't lie to yourselves, His Majesty really said that!"
"Your Majesty, I have heard recently that the scenery at the border is very good. It would be a beautiful thing for Your Majesty to set out on an inspection tour." A courtier said sincerely.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I heard that there are snow-capped mountains in the far west, so why not go and have a look."
"Your Majesty, I have a treasure map here. It is said that it contains the martial arts secrets of a peerless master. I present it to Your Majesty today."
One by one, without any exception, the courtiers present gave up on admonishing Xuanyuan Wanrong to take back her life, and instead pointed the finger at Xu Que.
The implication is that you'd better go as far as you can and never taint state affairs.
We're already in dire straits, can you please stop adding to the mess
Besides... according to the Queen's method, it may cause great chaos and make people miserable.
But as long as the famine years are over, things can slowly get better in the future.
But if His Majesty the Emperor is allowed to intervene, I'm afraid the Eastern Tang Kingdom will be finished next month!
Xu Que grinned, thinking how unreliable this emperor was in the past...
Look at these ministers. As soon as they heard that they were going to interfere in state affairs, they wanted to send themselves to the border as soon as possible.
He had no doubt that if he had an heir, these ministers would probably persuade him to abdicate on the spot.
After all, we are not afraid of the emperor being mediocre, but we are afraid that the emperor will lose his head.
"My dear friends, I really have a good way to govern the country." Xu Que didn't care about the attitudes of these ministers and said with a smile.
When the ministers heard this, they became even more panicked.
"Damn it, I remember when I first entered the court eight years ago, His Majesty laughed like this!"
"Yes! I remember it too! Then we almost perished as a nation!"
"Oh my God, Your Majesty, we don't want to laugh like this."
"If the Queen hadn't taken over the government that time, we wouldn't even know where we are now!"
The courtiers all looked to Xuanyuan Wanrong for help, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Queen, please stop your husband!
He's going to be a monster again!
Xuanyuan Wanrong faced the looks of her ministers begging for help with a calm face, taking them indifferently without any reaction.
Seeing the Queen and the Queen like this, the courtiers finally despaired.
It's over, it's really over now.
You shouldn't have advised the Queen to take back her life just now!
Now it's okay, the Queen no longer wants to take care of it, and let the Hunjun take over.
Seeing that his ministers all looked resigned to their fate, Xu Que sighed and said sincerely: "My dear friends, you might as well listen to my method and think about it later."
There was silence in the hall, no one wanted to be the one who stood out.
Finally, under the intimidation of Xu Que's gaze, a minister finally stood up and said, "Please, please give me your Majesty's advice on what to do?"
Xu Que glanced at the other party appreciatively and said slowly: "In my opinion, this disaster relief is just a need for silver, so why don't we just get the silver from the people."
Some ministers rolled their eyes.
Isn’t this fucking nonsense
How can we get money from the people, but the question is where do the people have the money
Taxation is already scratching the surface, you can't possibly let the people take out all their wealth!
Who doesn't keep some extra money in their hands? If something happens to their family, they won't have any money left to die
He is indeed a fool...
Before the ministers could object, Xu Que continued: "So my solution is to establish a private treasury, let the people deposit their money in the treasury, and the court will rebate the money to the people on a monthly basis. In this way, not only taxes can be reduced, but also disaster relief can be provided. There is silver."
Private treasury
The ministers were stunned for a moment, and after a moment they came to their senses and were astonished.
Damn it! Yes, you can create a private bank!
Why didn't they think of this move? !
Establish a private treasury and let the people put the money they usually store in the private treasury. You only need to rebate it to the people every month, and you can get a large amount of silver for disaster relief.
When the disaster relief is over and the national treasury is sufficient, the money can be deposited back into the treasury.
As long as there is a certain amount of cash reserves circulating in the treasury, there is no need to worry about the shortage of silver!
What a fucking genius idea!
The ministers present are not mediocre people. They only need to think carefully to figure out the joints.
Xu Que's method is nothing more than to establish a state-owned bank.
But this advanced concept, when placed in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, was a state-governing strategy that shocked the world.
The ministers were shocked.
Is this still their incompetent Emperor who only knows how to pursue his dreams
Are they dreaming
How could his cute little brain come up with such a great strategy for governing the country
"Your Majesty is wise, this strategy is feasible!"
"I thank the Holy One for all the people for coming up with this good plan!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
The courtiers began to praise Xu Que's strategy.
Some veterans who firmly supported Xu Que even burst into tears, kowtowed and cried on the spot.
Late Emperor, have you seen it? Your Majesty, he has made great achievements!
He can actually govern the country!
"Let Prime Minister Li take charge of this matter. I have written a guide on how to behave. You can come and get it from me after you go to court." Xu Que waved his hand and easily dismissed the matter.
Xuanyuan Wanrong's face was already filled with astonishment and disbelief.
This guy actually has a way, and it's so easy!
…
Soon, the meeting came to an end amidst the commotion.
After retreating from the court, the two left side by side again and walked in the imperial garden.
Beside you are trees full of peach blossoms, which are dazzlingly red.
Xuanyuan Wanrong had no time to appreciate it, and felt a little complicated inside.
She really didn't expect that the natural disaster that left her helpless could be easily solved by Xu Que with just a few words.
After struggling for many times, Xuanyuan Wanrong finally asked: "This private treasury method... did you really come up with it yourself?"
"Oh, otherwise, why did I just ask a beggar from the roadside?" Xu Que said angrily, "I told you, you are not good at running a country, so don't hold on."
Xuanyuan Wanrong did not answer the question and threw a token with her backhand: "With this order, you can mobilize six people."
"Okay!" Xu Que took the token and turned around to leave with excitement on his face.
Seeing Xu Que in a hurry, Xuanyuan Wanrong couldn't help but ask: "What are your plans with this order? What are you going to do?"
"Infusion." Xu Que said without looking back.
"Infusion? What liquid?" Xuanyuan Wanrong was stunned and didn't understand.
Xu Que paused in his steps, turned around and showed a bright smile: "Miss you at night."
