"Good! Tomorrow morning, you will ask the minister of the Ministry of War or the Ministry of Industry to ask for this in public, and I will agree. ”

Wei Tianzi's words pronounced the death sentence of Hubu.

Of course, this is just a joke, but it is undeniable that after this incident, the deterrent power of the household department in the six departments of the imperial court will be greatly affected.

"But there's one thing, I'm talking ahead." Glancing at Zhao Hongrun, Wei Tianzi added: "Since you won, don't do anything superfluous." ”

"Father is worried that the emperor will find a way to deal with Fan Biao, the left servant of the household department, after he turns back?" Zhao Hongrun asked with a smile.

Wei Tianzi frowned when he heard this, he said in his heart, it's good to know each other about this kind of thing, what do you do when you say it?

However, Zhao Hongrun didn't seem to care, arched his hand, and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, the emperor knows the 'rules'." …… Moreover, Zuo Shilang Fan Biao, except for the removal of a small selfishness, most of them are still considered for the household. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Hongrun suddenly thought of something, frowned and asked, "Is the household department's finances very tight?" ”

Wei Tianzi sighed when he heard this.

At this time, Zhongshu Ling Lin Yuyang saw that the atmosphere of the conversation in the hall was no longer as tense as before, and Wei Tianzi was sighing again, so he interjected: "His Royal Highness King Su doesn't know, according to the practice of changing every two years, this year, the military department will prepare to replace the armament of the garrison, build a new armament for the six battalions of the garrison, and at the same time, replace the equipment of the six battalions of the garrison and distribute it to the garrison troops in various places...... It's a huge project. ”

"Again." Zhongshu Zuo Cheng Yu Ziqi also interjected with a wry smile: "The same is true of the Ministry of Industry. The Ministry of Industry is preparing for the opening of the "Land of Three Rivers", hoping to build the Henan area into the granary of our Great Wei. …… It was also a huge undertaking that took a lot of time and years. Speaking of this, he secretly glanced at Zhao Hongrun, and carefully saved the bad impression in the heart of His Royal Highness King Su for the household: "Therefore, in fact, the life of the household department is also quite embarrassing." ”

"The treasury is empty?" Zhao Hongrun asked in surprise.

Lin Yuyang stroked his beard. Shaking his head, he said: "There is no deficit, but it is not enough to talk about fullness." If it weren't for the huge amount of money and goods shipped by His Royal Highness King Su from the Chu State this time, I believe that the Ministry of Household would have no choice but to owe a part of the funds to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry this year......"

Zhao Hongrun frowned when he heard this, and asked suspiciously, "What about the money?" Haven't you collected last year's taxes? ”

Yu Ziqi pursed his lips. In a strange tone, he said: "The tax of my Great Wei household has naturally been collected, but the other part is ...... Presumably you have to be in arrears until the beginning of summer, hehe, conventional. ”

Zhao Hongrun naturally understood what the "other part" in Yu Ziqi's mouth meant, and asked with a smile: "Why, those rich lords refuse to pay taxes on time?" ”

Yu Ziqi couldn't stop mocking when he heard this: "It seems like this kind of thing, if you think those people can drag it out." …… Anyway, in their opinion, they hold the lifeblood of our Great Wei, and the imperial court will definitely not punish them severely. ”

While speaking. He peeked at Wei Tianzi's expression, obviously it was not as simple as just complaining.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Hongrun also understood, turned his head to look at Wei Tianzi, and said with a smile: "Father, the sixth battalion of the garrison is not easy to dispatch, do you want the emperor to lend the Shang Shui Army and the Yan Shui Army to the household department?" ”

『……』

Wei Tianzi looked at the two of them singing and harmonizing angrily, and scolded with a tiger face: "Don't be troublesome!" ”

It's a pity that Zhao Hongrun is not afraid. Shaking his head, he continued: "The emperor has already said something. It's better to hold it in the hands of the imperial court. ”

Wei Tianzi pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's not time yet. ”

"Shhhh …… Do you have to wait until it is like the Chu State, rotten to the roots? Zhao Hongrun pursed his lips, and then brought up the old matter again: "Even so, at least we have to redivide the business profits." ”

Hearing this, Lin Yuyang and Yu Ziqi glanced at each other. invariably turned his head to look at Wei Tianzi.

At this time, Wei Tianzi looked at Zhao Hongrun and scolded with a smile: "Even you refuse to obediently hand over the money and goods in your hand, do you think those people will obediently obey the words of the imperial court and redivide the business profits?" ”

Zhao Hongrun ridiculed when he heard this: "Father, who are those people compared to my emperor?" At least ninety percent of the money in the hands of the emperor will be used for the construction of my Great Wei......"

Hear that. Wei Tianzi, Lin Yuyang, and Yu Ziqi couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"Forget it." Seeming to lose the interest in joking, Wei Tianzi shook his head and said, "This matter is very involved, let's think about it in the long run." ”

"Shh Zhao Hongrun pursed his lips, and then arched his hand and said: "In this case, the emperor will retire first." ”

"Hmm."

Wei Tianzi nodded, watched Zhao Hongrun leave the Vertical Arch Palace, looked at Yu Ziqi immediately, and said with a wry smile: "Is Yu Aiqing still not giving up?" ”

I saw Yu Ziqi arch his hand and said: "Please forgive your majesty, Weichen thinks that the 'business profit' mentioned by His Royal Highness King Su should be implemented." ”

"It's not time yet." Wei Tianzi shook his head and vetoed.

"Yes, it's not the right time, right now, my Great Wei, is not ready to fight with those families, magnates, and even the children of my Ji royal family, once the reform policy is forcibly introduced, I believe that the whole country will be in chaos. …… It's not time yet.'"

Wei Tianzi sighed secretly, cheered up and continued to approve government affairs.

The next day, above the morning court, it was clear that it was just a routine court meeting in the past, but this time, there was a change that was enough to shock most of the courtiers.

It turned out that Li Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of War, came out of the column to ask the Son of Heaven to allow the Ministry of War to build its own treasury.

During this period, he brought out Zhao Hongrun's righteous and awe-inspiring words.

Subsequently, Cao Zhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, also put forward the same request, and his rhetoric was similar to that of Li Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

"It's coming!"

In addition to the three parties involved in the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Households, one of them, who knew about it, muttered to himself in his heart.

I have to say that Li Wei, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Cao Zhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, jointly asked for this matter, which made the vast majority of courtiers in the DPRK and China stunned.

What the?

Could the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry be allowed to build their own treasury and manage their own financial revenues and expenditures?

Isn't this an attempt to reduce the power of the Ministry of Households?

It seems that Zhou Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, He Mei, the secretary of the Ministry of Justice, and the left and right attendants beside them, were stunned and subconsciously looked at the ministers of the household department.

However, it was found that in addition to Fan Biao, the left waiter of the household department who asked for leave with illness today. Li Liang, the secretary of the household department, and Cui Can, the right attendant of the household department, turned out to be expressionless and indifferent, as if they had not heard the invitation of the military department and the ministry of industry at all.

"What's going on?"

The official is still in the book, and the eyes of this old minister who is more than half a year old flashed with incomprehension.

He couldn't figure it out, but it was clear that the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry had made it clear that they wanted to cut the power of the Ministry of Households. But the two adults in the household department looked indifferent.

"Strange...... Li Liang was indifferent? Even if you get caught, you won't be ...... Is there something hidden that no one knows?'

Zhou Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, secretly guessed.

In his opinion, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry have obviously already communicated with the Ministry of Households, otherwise, the Ministry of Household would not have endured to such a point if the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry openly reduced the power of the Ministry of Households.

Seeing this scene, Wei Tianzi also felt a little emotional in his heart, and he didn't expect it. His son Zhao Hongrun actually had a way to make Li Liang, the head of the household department, and Cui Can, the right attendant, back down to such a point.

"Li Aiqing, do you have any objections to this?"

When Li Liang heard this, he looked up at Li Yan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Cao Zhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and sighed slightly in his heart.

"Minister...... Seconded. ”

Hearing this, a low cry sounded in the main hall.

I believe that the ministers in the palace never expected that the household department would agree to the request of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry.

Seeing this, Wei Tianzi nodded and said, "Since Li Liang Aiqing has no objection, then." At the request of the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of Industry, I allowed the two departments to build their own treasury. He is also in charge of the financial revenue and expenditure of the department. …… After the construction of the two treasury is completed, the two ministries are allowed to adopt the new policy, and as for the funds handed over by the household department in advance each year, it will be drawn up according to the share of the total tax revenue of the household department in the previous year. The Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Industry will propose a quota and submit it to the middle study. ”

"Your Majesty." Li Yan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Cao Zhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, knocked on the ground and thanked him.

The court meeting of the day was spent in the confused whispers of many courtiers. I believe that the vast majority of courtiers are really incomprehensible to the changes that have taken place at today's court meeting.

Until the afternoon, the news secretly circulated in the household department: it turned out that it was Fan Biao, the left attendant of the household department, who was worried about the huge amount of money that King Su Hongrun transported from Chu to Daliang, and found that His Royal Highness King Su was guarding the money and goods with the soldiers of the Junshui Battalion, and refused to hand it over to the household department. Therefore, in a fit of rage, together with the four divisions under the jurisdiction of the household department and many Lang officials, they jointly went to the Vertical Arch Hall to impeach Su Wang Hongrun, so there was this disaster.

"It's death!"

When they heard about this gossip, many courtiers were quite gloating.

The biggest contributor to the impeachment of the repelled Chu army and the counterattack on the Chu State? Impeachment of King Su Hongrun, who is now in full swing?

Is this a bear heart and leopard gall eaten?

That's His Royal Highness King Hongrun, who once commanded an army of 80,000 and thwarted the 160,000 army of Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Chu Xuancheng!

Well, now the household department offended a big man who could not afford to offend, and was stabbed by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, and his rights were greatly lost and his prestige was discredited.

Of course, there are also many people who are quite jealous of the profits of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, such as the Ministry of Officials, I believe that many officials secretly muttered after learning about this: It seems like such a good thing, why is there no part of my Ministry of Officials?

Come to think of it, who wouldn't want their ministry to have such a treasury?

But unfortunately, for some reason, they did not have the opportunity to take this downwind boat this time, and missed this opportunity that could not be found.

And when the news reached the Yongwang Mansion, Zongwei Zhou Yue admired His Royal Highness the Yongwang and threw himself to the ground.

Although at the beginning, Zhou Yue couldn't understand why His Royal Highness gave up his friendship with the household department and turned to win over the criminal department, until today's incident happened, he realized that the Royal Highness of King Yong, whom they assisted, was really far-sighted.

"The household department that the East Palace has worked hard to win over has fallen into such a field, I don't know what the East Palace will look like at this moment......

Facing Zhou Yue's heartfelt compliments, Yongwang Hongyu showed a faint smile on his face.
