Once she accepted this fact and adapted to the rules of this world, Hua Chun felt surprisingly natural. I don't know if it's because she has always loved the relationship between costume dramas and classical things, but she finds everything here very pleasing to the eye, and she is very familiar with greeting and saluting people.
For a moment, she even smelled a smell of fate.
"Take it, the dried fish that my mother made for you." Wan Shi kindly stuffed a paper package into her arms: "This fragrance has attracted many cats, it is guaranteed to be delicious!"
Hua Chun was a little silly, sniffing, looking at the oiled paper bag in his hand in surprise.
The dignified Prime Minister actually likes to eat small dried fish? !
"Every time you enter the palace in the afternoon, you will be delayed for a long time. Don't think it's a mother-in-law. If you are hungry, eat something secretly, and the emperor will not blame you."
Somewhat moved, Hua Chun put the package of dried fish into his sleeve, and nodded to Wan Shi: "Mother, don't worry."
Although she is arrogant and domineering, she is really a good mother. Even for this package of dried fish, she still has to fight with the emperor again.
Walking was still a little inconvenient, and in the afternoon, several veteran officials still used their shoulders to carry Hua Chun into the palace.
"Can we have a discussion?" She looked at Grand Master Tang beside her with a straight face and said solemnly, "Use your shoulder to send me in, can you also use your shoulder to pick me up?"
Grand Master Tang was taken aback, cupped his hands and said: "The palace people are waiting outside the Xuanzheng Hall in the morning, and the shoulders are also prepared, did you take it?"
Huachun: "..."
Why are you waiting outside the Xuanzheng Hall? She went to the royal study!
Stretching out his hand to wipe his face, Hua Chun laughed dryly: "It's all right."
It was nothing to be seen by so many palace people as monkeys!
After glancing at her, Grand Master Tang said, "The prime minister has to discuss with the emperor about the distribution of the relief money."
"I see."
She has done similar things before, and the ancient times are not much different from the modern times. Whenever there is a disaster relief, there must be corruption and pumping. She had an idea before, but because it hurt the interests of too many people, she was slapped on the wall by her boss.
But now, I don't know if I have a chance to try it.
Yu Wenjie on the dragon bed woke up from the dream, his eyes were full of hostility as soon as he opened his eyes, and he swept towards the people next to him.
Eunuch Qin was slightly startled, and quickly brought up herbal tea and brocade handkerchiefs, waiting for him to get up.
"Your Majesty, there is still a meeting in Shenshi."
Assembly
After a pause, Yu Wenjie closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the hostility inside dissipated and returned to peace.
"knew."
He had another very nasty dream. In the dream, something seemed to be lost, which made his heart, liver, spleen and lungs ache. This feeling made him feel very irritable, but he had to restrain himself.
Changing into court clothes with a dark face, Yu Wenjie went to Xuanzheng Hall.
While waiting for the emperor to come, Hua Chun sat on a chair, humming a song in a good mood and secretly eating dried fish. Wan's craftsmanship is really good, this dried fish is fragrant and spicy, without the slightest fishy smell, it is really the best snack.
While eating happily, Eunuch Qin's voice came from outside: "The emperor is here—"
This time she learned to be honest, without saying a word, she immediately knelt down and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty is welcome!"
Yu Wenjie frowned, walked to the dragon seat and sat down, glanced at the veteran who was only bowing in salute, and then at Huachun lying in front of him like a frog, the haze in his eyes dissipated for some reason.
"Prime Minister Hua." He said: "A meeting is not a court meeting, what are you doing with such a big ceremony?"
Lying on the ground, Hua Chun wanted to slap herself to death, the etiquette in this palace should also be studied! Lost two people!
"Chen..." Supporting the ground, he stood up slowly, and when he raised his head, Hua Chun had already prepared his mind, and calmly cupped his hands and said, "It's the first time you make a big mistake, so you must show a big gift when you see my emperor. as a sign of remorse."
"Oh?" Yu Wenjie looked at her with deep meaning in his eyes: "Prime Minister is really a role model for courtiers."
Smiling stiffly, Hua Chun stood up straight and retreated into the crowd.
A meeting is a meeting where the emperor convenes important ministers to discuss a major event, and today's topic is naturally disaster relief. The drought is raging, and if it continues like this, the harvest in autumn this year may drop a lot.
Taishi Tang, Li Zhongtang and others discussed the amount of relief silver with the emperor. Hua Chun had no objection, so he replied "yes" twice.
Yu Wenjie looked at her a little uncomfortable. Usually, Prime Minister Hua would come to criticize her when she said something. Why did it stop so much today
Looking over at a glance, the person's side profile was still so exquisite that it was not like ordinary people, and the outline of the bridge of the nose was elegant.
What a sissy.
Part of the reason why Yu Wenjie didn't like Hua Jinghua was that he didn't look like a man, he was too delicate and thin, as if he would fall if the wind blows.
Seeing the longer and more delicate, he didn't like it even more, and instantly wanted to make things difficult for him.
"Does the prime minister have any good ideas for disaster relief?"
Hua Chun was thinking about his words when he was suddenly asked by the emperor, and immediately stood up straight.
Taishi Tang and the others sighed softly and bowed their heads silently. There has always been a fixed process for disaster relief. The higher-ups only need to discuss the amount of silver and the scope of disaster relief, and the rest will be arranged by the lower levels. If the emperor asks such a question at this time, it can only mean that he will have trouble with the prime minister again.
Just as he was thinking about whether to make a sound to break the siege, he heard Prime Minister Hua in front of him saying: "I have an idea, but I dare not discuss it indiscriminately. If I raise it this time, it can only be regarded as an arrogant statement, Your Majesty." Don't take it too seriously."
Still have an idea
Yu Wenjie looked at her and nodded: "You just say it's okay."
Taking a deep breath, Hua Chun cupped his hands: "Historically, in disaster relief, the imperial court distributed ten, officials swallowed nine, and the remaining 10% went to the common people, which was a drop in the bucket. This time the disaster relief, the most important thing is not to distribute how much, but to get to the common people." How many are there?"
Her voice was the only one in the court hall, and there was an echo. After a short pause, seeing no one answered, Hua Chun bit the bullet and continued on his own:
"The king is the lord of the world's subjects and all things. But he is the lord of the world's subjects and all things. He has the most important responsibility. If the people's health is good or sick, if there is something inappropriate, he will not be responsible for it. This is the story of the king. And send their responsibilities to the ministers and workers, so that they can say everything. The ministers and workers speak out, and the king is praised. But if the ministers have interests, flattery and obedience, so that the disaster is isolated and the master does not hear about it, the country’s catastrophe will also happen. .”
"If you don't hear the words, the king's kindness is mighty, but the minister's behavior is sloppy, so that the people will not be favored by the king, and will harm the king. The minister thinks that in order to make the king's kindness known to the people, the emperor immediately issued an order to clarify the amount of relief money. , Mutual supervision, if anyone reports corruption, he will be promoted and rewarded with money. If the officials protect each other, the imperial ambassadors will be ordered to listen to the opinions of the people, and if they hear back from the emperor, they must send the disaster money to the people."
There was really nothing to say, Hua Chun took a deep breath.
