Daqin started with offering immortal medicine

Speaking of this, He Zhang glanced at Zhi Su Nei Shi Ji Kai who was standing on the other side, and then said: "I asked Mr. Ji Kai for food yesterday, but I didn't get half a chestnut. If this continues, let alone the various projects." The work can be completed on time, that is... the existing servants, I’m afraid it won’t take me long, and they will all starve to death.”

After finishing speaking, He Zhang lowered his head in panic, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and collapsed all over, as if he had exhausted all his strength for the words just now.

Snapped!

Zhi Su Nei Shi Jikai was so frightened that his legs gave way, and he also knelt down, scolding He Zhang for being shameless, and dragging him into the water when he was dying.

Govern the internal history of millet, and control the storage of grains and gold and jade, which is equivalent to the treasurer of the national treasury.To put it bluntly, the position of Zhili Neishi is equivalent to the Minister of the Household Department of the later imperial court.The subordinate officials include Taicang Order and Taicang Cheng, who are in charge of the storage of grain in the treasury;

Ji Kai also broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I am wronged. The world is full of old and weak women busy farming, and there is nothing to collect, so that more than half of the taxes in various places this year have not yet arrived. I... I really don't have any extra food, but I can barely maintain the rations of the army with the little food I have left. I... I am incompetent!"

After saying this, Ji Kai glared at He Zhang bitterly, as if if this was not the Qilin Temple, he would rush forward and desperately.

But He Zhang has an expression that I am also forced to be helpless, you can't blame me.

Hearing what the two of them said, Ying Zheng couldn't sit still at this time, and he was terrified. Although he knew that the corvee was too heavy in Qin, he never dreamed that the situation was so serious that he didn't even have enough food.

As the king of a country, he naturally understands what this means?

If the country has no food, the army does not obey orders, and the officials do not act, the country will perish.

Shocked in his heart, Ying Zheng finally realized that Daqin was in danger, and he didn't even know it before...

Thinking of this, Yingzheng was furious, slammed the table and yelled: "Daqin has come to such a critical situation. Before that, no one reported it. You just want to watch Qin fall! Why don't you wait for peace!"

wow...

Immediately, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were so frightened that they all knelt down and shouted in unison: "I will wait for death!"

Everyone has a feeling of wanting to die, everyone looks like they have eaten shit, their faces are very ugly, and they feel wronged, but they dare not speak out.

Can these things be blamed on us?

We have reminded you more than once, it's His Majesty the Emperor, you don't want to listen at all.

Especially He Zhang and Ji Kai, that was even more wronged.

Injustice, great injustice.

If you make an admonition according to the truth, saying that the corvee is too heavy and no one is farming the fields in the world, isn’t that the same as persuading the emperor to reduce the corvee? You must know how many times Feng Xiang and His Royal Highness Fusu have made admonitions about this, and finally Didn't he get scolded bloody?

Even if Feng Xiang and Mr. Fusu are like this, one of them will be the Shaofu, and the other will be the governor of Li Neishi. How dare they say these words.

To put it in a harsh way, if we hadn't been pushed into a hurry today, we would have died if we didn't speak up, the two of us wouldn't have dared to speak the truth.

However, looking at it now, it really caused the emperor to be furious, and He Zhang and Ji Kai looked ashamed at this time.

At this time, Feng Quji risked his life and said: "Return...Report to Your Majesty, I have reported this matter many times to persuade Your Majesty to lighten corvee and reduce taxes, but...It's just that Your Majesty didn't listen."

Ying Zheng was taken aback, as if this was the case, but... can I admit my mistake?

Yingzheng slapped the table again, and said angrily: "You only advised me to lighten the corvee and reduce taxes, but you once said that the Great Qin is in such a critical situation. Now if Li Zhongcheng didn't press him again and again, I think you will be in danger even at the end of the Great Qin Dynasty." Even if you don't, you won't tell the truth!"

"..." Feng Quji was dumbfounded.

Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to be such a person.

It's obviously your own fault, but you don't admit it, it's fine if you don't admit it, but you have to blame us...

Feng Quji was also drunk.

Seeing that Feng Quji had nothing to say, Yingzheng gave a cold drink in satisfaction, ignored him, pointed at He Zhang and Ji Kai, and said coldly, "Come on, put these two liars to death." , let me pull it out and chop it up!"

"Here!" The forbidden army immediately took orders, stepped out, and walked towards the two of them.

When He Zhang and Ji Kai heard this, their faces turned pale, and they were scared to pee...

I didn't want to tell the truth in the first place, but you forced me to tell the truth, Your Majesty. If you don't tell me, you will kill me. Now that you tell me, you still want to kill me...

What the hell have you done!

It's over, today's unlucky reminder, it's all over.

Poor He Zhang, thinking of this, wept sadly...

All the civil and military officials in the court paid a silent tribute to these two... three seconds!These two unlucky kids, hey...

Chapter 33 Sustainability Strategy

"Wait a moment!"

Just when the forbidden army was about to drag He Zhang and Ji Kai out of the hall with ashen and hopeless faces, suddenly, there was a sound of stopping from the front of the hall.

The yelling sound naturally came from Li Yang, because now all the civil and military officials in the Qilin Palace are in danger, and only Li Yang dared to intercede at this time.

Li Yang really sympathizes with these two unlucky people. If he doesn't tell the truth, he will die, but if he tells the truth, he will die. This is really a bit sad to die.

What's more, Li Yang asked these questions today just to better explain his sustainable development strategy, and he didn't want to lose his life just because others answered his questions.

If that was the case, Li Yang would feel very sorry.

After Li Yang called the imperial army to stop, he immediately turned around and pleaded with Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, although General He and Lord Ji were suspected of concealing the danger before this, after all, they reported the truth just now. I beg Your Majesty to spare the two adults this time. , let them make up for their mistakes in the future."

As soon as Li Si heard this, he immediately stepped out of the line, handing over his hands and seconding the proposal: "I think what Zhongcheng said is reasonable, and I implore your majesty to take back the king's order!"

Ying Zheng glanced at Li Yang, sighed at last, and waved to the imperial guards: "Forget it, since Zhongcheng begged for mercy, I will forgive you today, and if I hide the truth next time and don't report it, I will definitely kill you!"

He Zhang and Ji Kai received the great kindness of pardon, and they were naturally pleasantly surprised. The feeling of remaining alive after the catastrophe came spontaneously, so they quickly handed over their hands to thank Ying Zheng: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will do my best to make up for the mistakes I have made." .”

Ying Zheng nodded slightly.

In fact, he didn't really want to kill these two people, because he knew that Li Yang would intercede for them.

And my intention of doing this is just to let everyone know that as a courtier, how can he conceal such a dangerous situation because of self-preservation, this is not the way of a courtier.

Just like Feng Quji, although Yingzheng was annoyed and annoyed by frequent persuasion, he never punished him.Why?Isn't it because he is doing his job as a courtier? Even if it is annoying to a person who is dedicated to his duty, as the king of a country, Ying Zheng, it is impossible for him to kill him indiscriminately.

Now it's all right, and the goal has been achieved.

After He and Ji thanked the emperor for their kindness, they then bowed their hands to Li Yang: "Thank you Zhongcheng!"

Li Yang smiled: "My lords, you are being polite. Although your lords have concealed the status quo before, you still know the truth. In such a difficult situation, your lords still want to make this big Qin machine run normally. It's not easy. The two adults have worked hard."

Speaking of this, Li Yang also bowed his hands.

When the two heard this, their eyes were wet and tears streamed down their faces.

The countless heartaches in the past seemed to be pouring out at this moment.
