Chapter 1662
C.1662
Time flies.
Xu Que and Xuanyuan Wanrong spent seven days in a dreamland in the twinkling of an eye.
It has to be said that Xuanyuan Wanrong is still a model as the head of a country.
After all, no matter how to say, he was once the chosen person of heaven. He was an excellent disciple of Tiangong academy and had been in the top position for a long time.
With her talent, even if she had never been in touch with governing the country before, she learned almost everything in a week.
But according to Xu Kuanâs words, there is nothing to show. The so-called governance has not been cured at all. It is all a strategy of treating the symptoms rather than the root cause. Sooner or later, something will happen!
Do you really think that an immortal genius can govern the country?
It doesnât exist!
âWhat? After so many days, do you still think I canât manage all this? â
In the imperial book room, Xuanyuan Wanrong sat down again with Xu Que and asked faintly while looking at the file in his hand.
The files are about some agricultural reforms. In her opinion, they are unimportant things and donât pay much attention to them.
According to her, the most important thing for a strong country is to have the concept of its own country.
In other words, it belongs to the belief of the country, and all the people unite and work together.
This is the same truth as cultivating immortals.
An immortal without Tao Yun will only be stuck in that realm and canât break through all his life.
Only when we understand what Tao we want to take and have Tao Yun can we go further!
She directly informed Xu Ke of this idea.
Xu Wei almost laughed after listening.
âYou take it for granted, and you think everything too beautiful. Your fantasy is a utopian world. If we continue to follow your idea, we estimate that we will have to be a pair of desperate mandarin ducks here in less than two years. â
After being imprisoned for cultivation, Xuâs courage was released, and he didnât give face at all.
Anyway, everyone is mortal. What are you afraid of?
You are the queen and I am the emperor. If you really want to count, I am still the one above!
Afraid of wool!
âPa!â
Xuanyuan Wanrong was not angry after hearing this. He was still calm and indifferent. He closed the file, called the maid to serve him and put on the Phoenix robe.
âIt seems that you have not demonstrated your so-called ability to govern the country in recent days.â She turned her back to Xu Ke and said indifferently.
âIâve been observing the people these days!â Xu Ke slumped leisurely on the chair and replied.
âOh, really?â
Xuanyuan Wanrong shook her head and sneered.
Before she came, she had trained many spies in the palace to monitor the trend of the imperial city.
According to the spyâs report, Xu Ke slipped out of the palace no less than five times this week. Every time he went out, he wandered around and had fun everywhere.
Even ran to find the descendants of those important officials and go to the bars to listen to music!
Whether this song is serious or not, I wonât mention it for the time being.
But the descendants of those important officials were too bold to go out with the emperor. Obviously, they were all a group of wine bags and rice bags.
And the result did not surprise Xuanyuan Wanrong.
In just a few days, Xu que became a good brother with those dandies. He hung around the fence day and night and didnât want to go home at night!
âOh, after all, Iâm a frivolous man. I canât afford to use it!â
Xuanyuan Wanrong shook her head and smiled, but she wouldnât care too much.
Iâm just a little skeptical about my previous ideas. How can I think this guy has connotation?
The maid served the two people, and her heart was terrified.
My mother⊠What do I hear?
Itâs not enough for me to die 10000 times!
Mom, I want to go home
However, fortunately, although Xuanyuan Wanrong and Xu Xu are emperors here, they donât have the spirit of emperors in their hearts. They didnât expect to go up at that level at all.
After finishing their appearance, they came to the hall.
The ministers had already waited below, waiting for the beginning of the court meeting.
However, the atmosphere today is obviously not quite right.
The full courtierâs face was ugly, and his forehead was still sweating. It seemed that there had been some major changes.
Xuanyuan Wanrong noticed this and wondered if there was another natural disaster?
âEmpress, the emperor has arrived!â
With the sharp voice of the eunuch, the court meeting officially began!
âI have something to start!â
Before they were seated, a minister couldnât wait to get out of the crowd and shouted.
Xuanyuan Wanrong waved faintly: âAiqing, please talk.â
âI beg the queen to order that the national tax be stopped!â
Huh?
Xuanyuan Wanrong suddenly gave a âclickâ in his heart, but his face didnât show any expression: âwhy did Aiqing say this?â
The ministerâs face was serious and his voice was sincere: âempress, before that, taxation had been carried out. The people were miserable because of the drought these days. Some people even lost their homes, separated their wives and children, and the domestic people could not make a living. If this goes on, the country will be ruined!â
With this minister taking the lead, the other ministers seemed to have found the backbone and began to admonish one after another.
âI ask the queen to take back her order!â
âEmpress, the people have no spare power to pay taxes. Please stop the national tax collection!â
âEmpress, this matter must not continue!â
With your words and mine, the hall became noisy.
Xuanyuan Wanrongâs face became more and more ugly. She couldnât understand what she had done wrong.
Although the amount of money needed for disaster relief was huge, the population of the eastern Tang Dynasty was so large that it was only a small amount of money shared among everyone.
Can it be said that the people canât even afford this silver?
How is that possible?
If you were so poor, the East Tang country would have been in chaos. But according to what she saw before, although the East Tang country is a little poor now, it is not so poor that the people canât make a living!
At the thought of this, her eyes could not help but turn to Xu Ke. She seemed to think of something, and her heart was a little cluttered and stunned.
This guy seems to have really said before that there will be a big problem in seven days.
Now
But how can he predict?
âTut tutâŠâŠâ
Xu que noticed Xuanyuan Wanrongâs eyes and sneered in his heart.
Hey, I warned you long ago that the tax increase is not easy to use. You just donât listen.
Thereâs trouble now. You know youâre looking at me. You want to ask me for help?
Donât help! Gas or not, gas or not?
Xuanyuan Wanrong obviously noticed the kind of gloating in Xu Queâs eyes, and didnât bother to pay attention to it.
Just in the face of the admonition of the ministers, she had no way at this time.
Stop taxation, how to solve the drought and famine?
If we donât stop, Iâm afraid there will be chaos in the country.
After hesitating for a moment, she said, âthe Minister of household, how much silver is left in the Treasury?â
When the Minister of household heard the speech, his heart trembled: âreport back to the empress. Now there are less than ten million and twenty million silver left in the Treasury.â
âAll of them are allocated for disaster relief.â
âAh, thisâŠâ
What is the queen talking about?
Give it all out. What if something happens again?!
Thatâs the Treasury. If the silver that bears the operation of a country is empty, the whole country will not be far from collapse!
âEmpress, no!â
âThis must not happen!â
The ministers admonished one after another to stop Xuanyuan Wanrongâs behavior.
Xuanyuan Wanrong frowned again.
This wonât work, that wonât work. Whatâs going on?
Can I change silver out of thin air?
âDo you have a headache? What can I do? â
At this time, Xuâs cheap voice came over.
Xuanyuan Wanrong saw that Xu Kuan was looking at himself with a smile. The smile on his face was very badly beaten.
âWhat do you want to say? Does it make sense to ridicule me at this time? â She subdued the impulse to hit people and whispered.
âIt makes sense to ridicule you, but itâs not necessary. In fact, itâs very simple. I can help you solve it, but you have to promise me one thing! â
âYou say!â Xuanyuan Wanrong took a deep breath and said slowly.
âCool! Then let me be frank. I donât want that jade seal, but you have to give me the power to mobilize all departments. If you donât delegate power, itâs difficult for me to do things. â Xu kuying said.
Previously, he tried to do things, but found that he had been elevated by Xuanyuan Wanrong, so the order was almost nullified, and no department was willing to listen to him.
Now we have a chance. As long as one wave, Ben forced saint to rise directly.
âAre you sure you can solve it?â
Xuanyuan Wanrong looked at Xu Duan suspiciously, as if he didnât trust or believe it.
Just hesitated for a long time. After she found that she seemed to have no other way, she decided to take a step back and nodded: âyes, but all your orders should be reviewed by me.â
Anyway, now that things have reached this point, itâs better to see what he can do.
If something really happens, I can handle the orders myself and stop it in time.
âNo problem!â
Xu que suddenly brightened his eyes and smiled at the corners of his mouth.
He just wanted the order from the Ministry of work, so he was ready to pay back the money by shouting all over the place.
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Wanrong agreed so easily!
Woman, your name is naive!
