Chapter 95 Not Enough for Two Pitfalls?

When the carriage of the two arrived at the gate of the palace, Wang Jian was already waiting there.

The soldiers who had just reported back saw the son-in-law and the prime minister coming, turned around helplessly, and went to report again.

Liu Bai came to Wang Jian's side with a smile.

"General Wang is actually earlier than us?"

Wang Jian glared at him angrily, but didn't reply.

Li Si was not in the mood to have fun with them at the moment, but just stood quietly thinking about his thoughts.

After a while, the soldiers turned around and let the three of them go in together.

Along the way, although Wang Jian kept silent, he was extremely depressed.

Originally, I came here this time to sue the emperor.

In the end, the person who wants to sue is now walking with him with a smile, how can he open his mouth?
Li Si, who was immersed in his own thoughts, was even less likely to speak.

The three of them walked together quietly.

Ying Zheng was revising the memorial in the side hall of the Qilin Hall. Hearing that the three of them had arrived, it was originally very relaxed.

But when he saw the expressions on the faces of the three of them entering the palace, he instantly became nervous.

The Prime Minister of the current dynasty was expressionless.

The old general Wang Jian's face was so dark that he didn't even look at the other two.

If it wasn't for the smiling Liu Bai, Ying Zheng almost thought something serious had happened.

"Minister/children refer to Your Majesty/Father, Your Majesty/Father Wannian!"

"rise!"

The three got up and stood quietly in the hall without saying a word.

Ying Zheng looked at this, and then at that.

You came and didn't speak, did you come here on purpose to obstruct my eyes?

With a soft snort, Li Si, who was in deep thought, was awakened.

He straightened his clothes and saluted.

"Your Majesty, the son-in-law came to look for the minister today, and wanted to build a factory on the land that you rewarded earlier, and the minister came to ask your majesty, can you donate this land to the son-in-law?"

Ying Zheng looked at him inexplicably, you are a prime minister, why did you come to ask me about this kind of thing?
I give it to you, that is your thing, just make up your own mind.

Now to ask, how should I answer?

Letting you give it away, wouldn't it mean that I broke my promise and passed on what I gave you to others?
I don't want you to give it away, it's your thing, how can I be the master?
Suddenly, Ying Zheng decided to keep silent.

You should settle your own lawsuits yourself!
Seeing that His Majesty was silent, Wang Jian stepped forward to express his thoughts,

Of course, his words were not so polite.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has been in office for many years. Today, the son-in-law actually came to the old minister to ask for money and land. You can judge. If you give the money and land to the son-in-law, what will the old minister use for retirement in these few days? Will the Wang family go up and down to drink the northwest wind?"

It has to be said that Wang Jian's rank is still higher.

In one sentence, he expressed his reluctance to give, and even expressed his desire not to be involved with the son-in-law.

At the same time, these words seem to be blunt, but in fact they are testing His Majesty's reaction.

Ying Zheng lowered his head and straightened his sleeves, suppressing his almost uncontrollable laughter.

He looked at Liu Bai and asked.

"My son-in-law, is there such a thing?"

With innocent eyes, Liu Bai stepped forward and replied.

"Father, the old general has wronged me. You also know that it costs money to build schools and workshops, so I want to build a few factories to ease the economic pressure."

"I know very well that Old General Wang and Prime Minister Li have dedicated themselves to my Great Qin, so I thought of asking them if they want to invest in shares so that they can earn some money for retirement!
"There is also the matter of the field. They have no money, so I want to let them take out a piece of unused land. This land is not for nothing. Will I still give them dividends?"

Speaking of this, Liu Bai glanced at the two of them, and continued.

"Besides, although the land was rewarded to them by the emperor, no one knows that everything in the Great Qin Dynasty belongs to you, the emperor."

"My son is now doing economic construction for our Great Qin, as an important member of the court, shouldn't he contribute?
"However, my son is not an ignorant person. Since the two adults are unwilling, the factory should not be built there!"

These words, coupled with Liu Bai's slightly aggrieved expression, made Wang Jian extremely depressed.

Is this a piece of land and a little money?

And the old man doesn't want to contribute, but he just doesn't want to get involved with you!

Li Si was not as angry as Wang Jian, after all, he already knew in his heart that this land was bound to come out.

Now what he is struggling with is just the method and who made it!
Ying Zheng glanced at Liu Bai, who was full of disappointment, and set the tone for this matter by speaking.

"The factory has to be built. As for the land, since the prime minister and the old general don't want to give it up, why don't the son-in-law rent it out? There's no need to pay dividends at that time, just pay the rent every month."

As an emperor, of course he couldn't just let others give up his land just by opening his mouth.

But if the imperial court is allowed to issue it, two words, it is absolutely impossible!
Liu Bai glanced at Ying Zheng and nodded in agreement.

"Prime Minister, General Wang, how about following Father's proposal, I rented your land, and I will settle the rent for you at that time?"

Li Si's heart skipped a beat, and he was joking, the son-in-law had said that before.

After using their land, there will be dividends at that time.

How can that little rent compare to dividends?
From his point of view, the things in the hands of the son-in-law are priceless treasures!

And he also planned to invest some money in it. Now that it's done like this, how can the son-in-law cooperate with him again?
As for Wang Jian, after finding out His Majesty's thoughts, he felt much more relaxed.

However, this rent is not necessary.

As Liu Bai said before, everything in the world belongs to His Majesty, and now you still need to pay rent for using your land, this land is still bestowed by His Majesty...

At that time, even if His Majesty doesn't think much about it, those officials will definitely hold on to it.

But if he was really asked to give it away, it violated the original intention of staying away from the court for so many years.

After thinking about it, Wang Jian fell into a contradiction again.

Li Si, who was on the side, also figured out what His Majesty was thinking.

The factory must be built, and now the greetings have been reached, and the dividends will be paid when the time comes, isn't that a matter of course?
Then he saluted Liu Bai with a smile on his face.

"The son-in-law was joking. The land in the hands of the ministers is all rewarded by your majesty. Now for the construction of our Great Qin, what's the point of giving it to the son-in-law?"

Seeing him being so upbeat, Liu Bai also laughed.

"The prime minister is really touched by the heart of Qin! But rest assured, the prime minister, since the emperor has rewarded you with this land, it is yours. After using it, I will definitely give you a dividend!"

Wang Jian looked at Li Si, then at Liu Bai.

You have discussed it so quickly, is it appropriate to leave me here alone?

Looking at Ying Zheng above, he sighed helplessly in his heart.

Your Majesty, don't you know what the old minister means?Do you have the heart to just look at it like this?
Even if the old man has the reputation of not contributing to the construction of the Great Qin, he must never get along with the eldest son!
Comparing the two, it is clear which is more important.

Thinking of this, Wang Jian closed his eyes directly, and pretended not to hear the conversation between the two.

Liu Bai naturally understood his concerns in his heart, but he had to decide on this place.

Looking at Ying Zheng in the high position, he thought for a moment.

"Father, since donating the land is to contribute to the economic construction of our Great Qin, should other ministers also contribute as much as the prime minister can? After all, they are holding the salary of my Great Qin court!"

Ying Zheng was a little surprised.

Good boy, cheating two is not enough, and now you want to cheat all the civil and military courts?

But there is a saying that is right, with my Daqin salary and not wanting to contribute, how can there be such a good thing?
