Chapter 135: You Sing It
This household department is also in a hurry, where can I take care of the interests of any family, where can I take care of the reputation of any clan? Poured out the brains that should be said and shouldn't be said!
The surrounding ministers also felt chills when they heard this, and in their eyes, the current situation was no less than the end of the world!
"Your Majesty, now that the situation is so grim, it is even more important to gather the wealth of the people and save the people of the country, as the so-called take from the people for the people, if Your Majesty does not agree to increase taxes, I am afraid it will not be long before the national disaster is imminent!"
Hube Shangshu almost shouted out this sentence with red eyes, he didn't understand at all, it had already explained the situation clearly and straightforwardly, why did Yang Guang just disagree? Could it be that it is not until the people who are about to starve to death gather an army to fight under the city of Daxing, and this faint monarch will understand?
The surrounding officials also frowned, even Xiao Guogong, who had always supported Yang Guang in the past, also showed a sad face at this time, although he saw the process of boiling salt with his own eyes, and could clearly understand the increase in output, but relying only on the salt tax, I am afraid it will be difficult to support this huge almost astronomical deficit!
Emperor Yang of Sui raised his eyebrows, stared at the Hubu Shangshu and said, "Take it from the people and give it to the people?" As a head of the household, you can really say it!
Widow and ask you, a few years ago, the first emperor was alive, has been cutting taxes, the people live and work in peace and contentment, with three points of prosperity, there are all kinds of industries in Daxing City, everything is changing in a good direction!
But why did the first emperor just die, and the world became like this? Now you still want the widow to raise the tax payment and abuse the people? Why don't you die first! ”
It was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the hundreds of officials present were shocked by thunder!
"Your Majesty, is this going on a killing spree? Do you want to replace all the officials who are facing up? ”
When the officials of the foreign court heard Yang Guang's roar, they only thought that it was a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring, and some people who didn't know the state of affairs just felt that Yang Guang was furious to the extreme, and he was bound to make a big move!
And the people in the inner court were silent at the same time, and the cold sweat on their foreheads was layer after layer!
Why the world has become like this, they know better than anyone else!
In addition to corrupt officials and corrupt officials, there are also entrenched families, these families are greedy like a poisonous snake, and they can't see others better than them, and the families in various places are divided, and the right to speak is in the hands of these people, and there are no good things in the court.
If it really continues to develop like this, ridiculous things can happen!
Emperor Yang of Sui calmed down a little anger, stared at Hubu Shangshu and said: "The widow gives you two days to come up with a foolproof plan, if you can't think of it, you will return to your hometown and leave your vacated seat to a more capable person!" ”
"Your Majesty!"
Hubu Shangshu cried loudly: "The old minister is loyal, for decades, even if there is no merit, there is hard work, why is Your Majesty so kind to the lower officials, doesn't this make the people of the world chill!" ”
When Emperor Yang of Sui heard this, he smiled faintly: "Cold-hearted and cold-hearted, the widow knows it, but the widow has always believed that people who have no strength are not worthy of being in a high position, and the widow can find someone to come." You can do better than you in your position! ”
As soon as Emperor Yang of Sui said this, the officials in the audience were in an uproar!
They all looked at each other, not understanding that Emperor Yang of Sui had suddenly become so domineering!
Only Emperor Yang of Sui himself knows that he can carry out a virtuous cycle through the system of national fortune values, and from then on there will be no shortage of powerful generals, as for civil officials?
In this contemporary era where Confucianism is prevalent, he only needs to find the few cattle people he knows in his shallow history, which is enough to trigger a virtuous circle again, when a good organization is established, and the rising stars are like bamboo after bamboo shoots, not like today's imperial court, which looks like a walking corpse, and there is no one who dares to admonish Yang Guang directly!
This kind of lifeless team is not what Yang Guang wants!
Hubu Shangshu looked depressed, put away the ivory version and returned to the courtiers, although he was indeed dissatisfied in his heart, but he also knew that Yang Guang's golden mouth was opened, and the order was difficult to change, if he didn't want to give up his high position and glory, he could only come up with a perfect color, as for what family clans, forces and other contentions, it was something he could only think about after spending this festival now!
For a while, the court was deserted, Yang Guogong's eyes rolled wildly, and a bad premonition suddenly came to his mind!
Xiao Guogong seized the opportunity to stride out of the courtiers' queue, and finally hugged his fists and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the old minister wants to join Yang Guogong's incompetence and talent, his old eyes are dizzy, he abuses his power and kills the people, and he feeds the beasts with children, his behavior is bad, and his crimes are too numerous to mention. ”
With Xiao Guogong taking the lead, the courtiers in the rear came out one by one!
"The minister wants to participate in Yang Guogong's adopted son and does not teach, his eldest son Yang Xuangan, colluded with the family in Chang'an City, brutalized the people, and even attracted scholars and rioters, framed the ministers of the court with documents, and his behavior was even more lawless, plundering beauties and forcibly occupying his house, and forcing people to become prostitutes, his behavior is like a beast, and his sex should be punished by people and gods!"
"Lin Qianjun, the general under the command of Yang Guogong!"
"Li Bo, a staff member of the Yang Guogong Mansion!"
"The second son of Yang Guogong, his animal behavior is no different from Yang Xuangan!"
It's like stabbing a hornet's nest, and half of the civil officials above the court have jumped out, which is really exhaustive of the vicious words of poetry and books, and it has sprayed the Yang family's Yang Su vein into black!
Yang Guogong's eyes were straight, and he turned his head blankly, almost being sprayed to death by the saliva of many officials!
Seeing the extremely frightened expression on Yang Su's face, Emperor Yang of Sui felt a little pity in his heart, and finally turned his head majestically: "Yang Guogong, what Xiao Guogong said is true?" ”
Yang Su was taken aback: "Your Majesty's name is checked, the minister is loyal, when has he done such a unconscionable thing?" Someone must have framed the old man and wanted to kill the old minister by His Majesty's hand! ”
Xiao Guogong stood up: "I'm bah! What you Yang Su has done, do you still need others to frame you? You just need to ask casually in Daxing City, who doesn't know the majesty of your old Duke Yang Su? The infamy of your son Yang Xuangan has spread thousands of miles away! Do you still need to be framed by your own father-in-law? ”
Yang Su's eyes rolled, and he made a panicked gesture and clenched his fists and said: "Your Majesty, it must be that Xiao Guogong is jealous of Your Majesty's pampering of the old minister, so he used this kind of trick, just to sow discord, and ask Your Majesty to check it carefully!" ”
Emperor Yang of Sui was used to seeing this old guy acting, and sneered slightly: "Yang Guogong said that what Xiao Guogong said is not true, so I don't know why the imperial history wants to join you?" There are also the squires of the military department, and even the squires of the household department, all of whom have to come to you together, so it seems that even if what you do is not as rampant as Xiao Guogong said, it may not be as irrelevant as you say! ”
Yang Su's old face turned white in an instant, and he turned his head to look at the cronies on the military general's side!
even looked at the young man who would be a prisoner for help!
In the queue of generals, the general of the overseer, who is also the surname of the Yang family, and the big man who can be counted by Yang Su, finally couldn't hold his breath and stood up in stride!
"Your Majesty, Xiao Guogong's words are not credible! Because the last general once saw Xiao Guogong and Xiao Yun, the envoy of the Han King, and had a private intimate meeting, not to mention that when he talked about the Han King, he was highly respected, so the last general suspected that this was probably the Han King's sowing discord, and the purpose was to make His Majesty doubt the loyalty of the Guogong! ”
Yang Guang frowned, the envoy of the King of Han?
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xiao Guogong, and his eyes showed three points of sharpness: "Okay, you old guy, on the surface, you are respectful to the widow, but there is a way out behind your back, then Yang Liang, the king of the Han Dynasty, is going to rebel, could it be that you, the old man, are not worthy of the trust of the widow?" ”
