Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 49
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials behind the man began to discuss.

"Left Prime Minister is right!"

"This is not a method!"

"At the moment, disaster relief should indeed be the most important thing!"

But after Jin Yantang heard this, the condensed expression on his face became more and more serious.

He snorted coldly, then threw down a booklet from the desk and said in front of Prime Minister Zuo: "What Shang Aiqing said is true, but the money is gone, what can I do to help the disaster?!"

"Boom!"

As soon as Jin Yantang finished speaking, there was a flash of thunder outside the Jinluan Hall, and everyone was shocked and fell silent.

Zuo Xiang Shang Chengyuan's expression changed, and he immediately fell silent.

Behind him, a fat official with shrewd eyes couldn't help laughing secretly.

Afterwards, he came out and said in a respectful voice: "Your Majesty, I am willing to donate 1000 taels of silver to help the people tide over the difficulties!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help casting surprised glances at him.

The Hubu Shangshu kneeling on the ground was shocked, and he glanced at that person out of the corner of his eye, and recognized that person as the current Minister of the Ministry of War—Wen Quanwu!

Seeing his generosity, Jin Yantang's slightly angry expression could not help but gradually calm down. He looked at Wen Quanwu suspiciously and said, "I am very pleased that Wen Aiqing has such a heart, but the salary of your military department can't be moved, no matter how hard it is. I will not suffer for the soldiers who fight for the country!"

Wen Quanwu said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, these are the silver rewards and my own salary that I have saved in recent years. Now I can use them in times of crisis, and I am very happy!"

Hearing this, Jin Yantang smiled, and when he looked at the left prime minister again, his eyes were full of dissatisfaction: "Hmph, Wen Aiqing is still able to handle things, Concubine Ning is also very worried about me these days, I have to say, Wen Aiqing, you really You have raised a good daughter!"

Wen Quanwu suppressed the joy in his heart, and said: "Thank you for your praise!"

"Okay, let's end today's matter here, Mr. Chen, if the household department can't find the lost disaster money again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

After finishing speaking, Jin Yantang waved his long sleeves, turned around and left here.

All the ministers rushed to send them off respectfully: "My humble ministers send you off to Your Majesty!"

As soon as the court meeting was over, these officials left in twos and threes, all of them looked worried along the way. Your Majesty's expression today is really scary!
In the past, when the dynasty was over, who among the officials did not surround the left minister Shang Chengyuan in the center of the crowd?

But today is different from the past, His Majesty has already detested Prime Minister Zuo, and even Concubine Chen, who was favored by rumors in the palace, was also neglected by His Majesty.

Now Wen Quanwu, Minister of the Ministry of War, is the target of everyone's fawning. The news that Concubine Ning is pregnant in the palace has already spread throughout the government and the public. If Concubine Ning gives birth to the eldest son or daughter of the emperor, Wen Quanwu's status will naturally rise!
Shang Kelin supported his father, looked at the group of people angrily, and said, "Snob!"

Shang Chengyuan was ridiculed by His Majesty just now, and now he is ignored by everyone, but he doesn't seem to be in a hurry, his face is calm and calm.

Standing in the Golden Luan Hall, he looked at the backs of those officials leaving, lightly stroking their beards and said: "Lin'er, some things should not only be seen on the surface, if your majesty is really such a person whose thoughts and emotions are on the surface, how can you What about overthrowing the former emperor's government? Great Zhou is truly blessed to have him!"

Hearing this, Shang Kelin couldn't help curling his lips: "Father, you still praised him at this time, and I don't know who just satirized you in front of so many civil and military officials! Also, I heard the last time Miss Wenchun who came to deliver the letter said that Concubine Ning and Concubine Hua are working together to deal with Lan'er!"

Shang Chengyuan is scheming, his cloudy eyes are shining with wisdom.

He smiled at Shang Kelin, and said: "Your sister is smart, being a father is more assured of her than you!"

Immediately, Shang Kelin quit: "Hey, Dad, what do you mean by that?"

The two were talking, at this time, Fupu came out from the hall, and whispered in front of the two: "Lord Shang, Your Majesty, please go to the Imperial Study Room to have a talk."

Shang Kelin's eyes froze for a moment, but Shang Chengyuan said with a faint smile, "Please ask Eunuch Fu to lead the way."

With a respectful attitude, Fu Pu bowed his waist along the way and said, "You two, please come to Sajia."

Inside the imperial study.

"Wei Chen sees His Majesty!"

Zuo Xiang and his son saluted Jin Yantang who was sitting in front of the desk.

Jin Yantang hurriedly got up and came in front of the two, helped Shang Chengyuan and Shang Kelin up and said, "Father-in-law, elder brother, don't be too polite, please get up quickly!"

Shang Chengyuan stood up respectfully, while Shang Kelin looked indifferent.

Jin Yantang sat back in front of the desk, and when the two sat down in front of the desks on the left and right sides of him, Fu Pu asked the palace maid to show them tea, and then led the palace maid out of the imperial study.

After everyone left, Jin Yantang frowned slightly, looked at Shang Chengyuan and said, "Father-in-law, I didn't mean to treat you like that in court, but the situation forced me to find out which household department communicated with the military department. If you want this old man Wen Quanwu to spit out the disaster money, I am afraid that the people in the disaster area will not be able to wait any longer."

Seeing that Jin Yantang still cared about the common people and worried about the country and the people, Shang Kelin couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, and then said: "Your Majesty, since you know that old thief Wen has evil intentions, why do you still hold him like this? Just investigate him! "

Hearing this, Shang Chengyuan glared at him immediately, and said: "It's true that you're stupid to praise you, then Wen Quanwu dared to collude with the Ministry of Households to do such things, do you think they didn't find a good scapegoat? They didn't destroy the evidence ? Randomly fabricate a story about being robbed by grass bandits on the way to transport disaster money, and the two of them will be able to deduce the crime of corruption clearly!"

Jin Yantang shook his head, his eyes darkened: "Among the six ministries, Wen Quanwu seems to be the head. It's okay for me to support him for the time being, but the Minister of the Ministry of Officials has to be replaced. The foundation of the country should be based on the people. You are right, only by emphasizing talents can appease the hearts of the people!"

When it comes to business, Jin Yantang's air of emperor is natural, and there is no anger between his brows.

It was as noisy as Shang Kelin, but he didn't need to be reminded by Zuo Xiang to stop the noise.

Prime Minister Zuo nodded, and said thoughtfully: "Although Your Majesty has been on the throne for three years, the cancer left over from the previous dynasty has become deeply entrenched. Now we have pulled out a lot from the edge. This natural disaster can be regarded as a good time, Your Majesty." Why not take this opportunity to root out those treacherous ministers?"

As he spoke, a carefree smile appeared on Zuo Xiang's face.

Seeing this, Jin Yantang's eyes moved slightly, and said: "Does Prime Minister Zuo have an idea in mind?"

Shang Kelin also looked at him in surprise and said, "Father?"

Just as several people were discussing, they suddenly heard the voice of Fupu outside the door saying embarrassingly: "Ms. Chen Concubine, Your Majesty is currently discussing matters with the ministers inside. Your soup servant will put the soup in the side hall for you to heat up. When Your Majesty is done with work, Will the servant send it in for you again?"

Concubine Chen?Isn't it Shang Kelan?

Shang Kelin's expression brightened immediately, and he turned to look at Jin Yantang expectantly: "Your Majesty, can I see the concubine Chen?"

On the side, Prime Minister Zuo moved his fingers slightly. Although his expression was not obvious, he still couldn't hide the joy in his heart.

At this time, Shang Kelan's quiet and pleasant voice came from outside the door: "Then you can give this soup to Your Majesty. This Palace cannot share His Majesty's worries, and there is only this that can be done."

Immediately afterwards, Fu Pu said: "Hey, the slave will convey your mother's wishes, and your mother will go slowly!"
