Chapter 693

Many ministers stood up at the scene, and generals who were good at fighting all came out to persuade them to come forward.

Xu Rong was a little excited. He didn't expect that the first time he entered the court, the first time he expressed his opinions and discussed such a big matter, he would get the approval of so many people.

But Xiao Yuan obviously would not agree. Now the world is uncertain, not to mention the south of the Yangtze River, even the north has not yet been unified. If he becomes emperor at this time, won't he lead all the spearheads to Qin!

But before he could speak, Xu Hu followed suit and said, "I also think that your Majesty should be the emperor."

He was also wearing an official uniform today. Xiao Yuan looked at him strangely and said angrily: "What are you messing with!"

Xu Hu said: "I just feel that with the king's achievements, if he is not the emperor, there will be no one else in the world who can be the emperor."

Hu Hou always speaks straightforwardly.

The young master ordered Jiang Yi to roll his eyes, and then followed suit:

"Your Majesty, what General Xu said is absolutely true. The world is currently in chaos and the empire has long since collapsed. If your Majesty takes the throne, it will be his destiny..."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven, a virtuous man should live here..."

Just when the hall was full of voices urging people to come in, Liu Changqing stood up.

"The king cannot claim to be emperor!"

His voice was loud and everyone looked over.

The latter ignored him and saluted Xiao Yuan respectfully: "Although the empire is weak, the emperor of the Shang family is the orthodox royal family after all. If the king proclaims himself emperor at this time, it will be suspected of overstepping his bounds and he will definitely be criticized!"

Xiao Yuan's face darkened.

Liu Changqing continued: "Furthermore, the countries are fighting for hegemony, the mountains and rivers are shattered, and the emperor is still here. Regardless of whether the princes accept it or not, they will all recognize it. But if the king gets rid of the Shang family, it will be like setting fire to himself, and will definitely make our country the target of public criticism! King Yan proclaims himself emperor,

The lessons learned from the past are clear to our eyes. Your Majesty is the master of the Ming Dynasty, so you must pay attention to it!"

Xiao Yuan understands this truth. He has no intention of proclaiming himself emperor now. However, the debate in the court today was fierce. Before he could speak, Xu Hu sneered: "What the hell is Shang! He is a

What something!"

"This!" Such words were so straightforward and simple that Liu Changqing almost choked.

Xiao Yuan glared at Xu Hu dissatisfied: "Nonsense!"

Seeing that he was angry, Xu Hu dared not disobey him, but he slapped his neck and said dullly: "In my heart, the king is the emperor anyway! Who is the emperor of the Shang family? It would be better to kill him with one knife!"

"Shut up!" Xiao Yuan looked very angry, but in fact he was not angry at all.

When Xu Hu saw this, he didn't know why. He thought Xiao Yuan was really angry. He quickly shrank his neck and carefully looked at Xiao Yuan's face secretly.

At this time, Liu Yuzhi finally stood up, bowed his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think it is too early to proclaim the emperor. Now that the north and the south are undecided and the world is uneasy, we should not focus on the throne, but work hard to govern and hoard food and grass.

, only by wiping out the world can one truly deserve the title."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yuan smiled slightly and said: "The Prime Minister's words are very suitable to my liking. There is no need to discuss this matter again!"

Ah? When the ministers heard this, they all looked at each other.

Liu Yuzhi saluted again and said: "I am Wang Yingming."

"Okay, we can't bring up the matter of proclaiming the emperor anymore. Now let's talk about the people's livelihood issues." Xiao Yuan turned to the business: "In the beginning of the founding of our country, Qin, the people's livelihood was miserable, and most of them were despised by other countries. It can be said that we are poor.

Ring it."

"Fortunately, we have all the ministers to help us and try our best to assist. The whole country is united to reclaim wasteland, build water conservancy, and implement policies that benefit the people. This has achieved remarkable results, so that our people are no longer hungry and no longer have no clothes." cold."

"But these are not enough. As the prime minister said, the people are the foundation of the country. As far as the country is concerned, only by governing the people and making them live and work in peace and contentment can the country become more prosperous and strong. We must not only enable the people of Qin to have enough to eat, but also We must strive to ensure that our family has enough food and new clothes..."

"In addition, the issue of military merit and honors needs to be further improved..."

He talked a lot, and ministers would come out from time to time to express their opinions in the court.

This court discussion also lasted for a long time. During the period, issues discussed included people's livelihood and household registration, agricultural education, water conservancy projects, and military issues.

In terms of the military, Xiao Yuan raised the issue of the vacation system and the relatively difficult situation for border guards, and that military pay should be increased. He also emphasized that at the end of the year and during holidays, the local government should allocate benefits to the families of martyrs.

For example, during festivals, local county magistrates should send some meat, cloth and other daily necessities to the families of soldiers who died in battle.

After the dynasty was over and the things discussed were basically settled, Xiao Yuan also stood up and dismissed the dynasty with a wave of his hand.

The ministers began to leave the palace together in twos and threes. On the way, they were naturally discussing something with each other.

Ding Rong walked with several officials and said as if he was extremely regretful: "Alas, today we and others have been urged to come in by many people, but the king has always refused. In my opinion, the emperor should be allowed to abdicate."

"Yes, the Shang family exists in name only. Your Majesty, you can definitely claim the title of emperor now." Someone agreed.

Some people shook their heads slightly: "In the final analysis, the world is still undecided..."

Xu Rong followed after a few steps and quickly followed Jia You, shoulder to shoulder with him, and said as he walked: "Mr. Jia, what do you think of today's court meeting?"

"What do you mean?" Jia You asked.

Xu Rongdao: "Look, today so many ministers are urging the king to proclaim himself emperor, but with just one word from the prime minister, the king has lost his thoughts. This..."

Hearing this, Jia You glanced at him and said with a smile: "That's because the prime minister has spoken to the king's heart."

"What do you mean?" Xu Rong was confused.

"It's well deserved." Jia You said concisely and to the point.

"Oh..." Xu Rong nodded as if suddenly, and then said: "But the words of the prime minister are too heavy for the king, right?"

"What do you think?" Jia You glanced at him again: "That's the prime minister, the head of the civil service. Can the words he says carry no weight?"

When Xu Rong heard this, he rolled his eyes, and then said with a smile: "That's true, that's true."

The other side.

After going to court, Xiao Yuan was naturally preparing to return to the palace. However, on the way out of the palace, Shangguan Wenruo came over in a hurry and saluted respectfully: "Your Majesty."

"What's wrong?" Seeing it was him, Xiao Yuan smiled slightly, indicating that there was no need to be polite.

The latter bowed slightly and followed Xiao Yuan, saying as he walked: "I dare you to ask the king why you are discussing politics in the main hall today without seeing the emperor?"

"Today, all the civil and military officials gathered in the great dynasty, so it's inconvenient for the palace." Xiao Yuan didn't care.

But Shangguan Wenruo said urgently: "Your Majesty has given up the palace of Qin to the emperor, and the king's chair is where the emperor usually sits..."

Hearing this, Xiao Yuan paused, glanced sideways at him, frowned secretly and said, "What do you mean?"
