Ding! Prestige 10…
Ding! Prestige 10…
Ding! Prestige 10…
……
The system notifications kept ringing in Zhu Qizhen's mind.
The effect of appeasing the ministers was ultimately reflected in the increase in prestige.
The aura of an emperor was vividly displayed on Zhu Qizhen's body.
The magnanimity that Zhu Qizhen had shown just now made the ministers in the court who were not convinced by the nine-year-old emperor's rule suddenly sigh with emotion.
This way of doing things was completely unlike a nine-year-old child.
However, what shocked the officials even more was yet to come.
Zhu Qizhen's mind kept appearing with some of Da Ming's political memories.
Wuchang Prefecture was flooded. Due to the poor water control, the people were displaced and their families were destroyed.
Pingliang Prefecture suffered a great drought, and the national treasury asked the Ministry of Revenue to allocate 100,000 taels of silver for disaster relief. Not only was the disaster not controlled, it became even more serious.
The border between Wala and Ming Dynasty was originally open to friendly trade, but because the country's brother-in-law wantonly robbed and killed the Wala people at the border, the Wala people wanted to break off the friendly relationship at the border.
A series of government affairs appeared in Zhu Qizhen's mind.
He asked calmly,"Do you have anything to report?"”
His question made the ministers unable to react. Everyone looked at each other.
Zhu Qizhen was only waiting for the Minister of Revenue and the Minister of Works to come out and report.
However, he did not expect the two officials to really treat him as a nine-year-old child who knew nothing about government affairs. They did not come out to report for a long time.
After a long time.
The righteous Yu Qian stood up and reported.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"Yes."
"When the previous emperor was in power, our Ming Dynasty and Wala had been on good terms for generations. We established a trade market at the border in order to avoid war between the two countries and prevent the people from being in the abyss of war. Now, someone has torn up the contract between Ming and Wala. Wala is preparing to use all its power to join forces with Arutai and Wuliangha to invade the border of Ming. I think that the person who tore the contract should be brought to justice and give the Wala clan an explanation.”
As soon as Yu Qian finished speaking, a minister, Xu Youzhen, immediately came out to object.
"Yu Qian! The trade market has always been managed by the country's brother-in-law. Are you saying that everything is the country's brother-in-law's fault? Your Majesty, I think we should fight to the death with the Wala Tartars. What is there to fear from the millions of mighty soldiers of our Ming Dynasty? Why do you have to kill the country's uncle and bow down to Wala? This is detrimental to the prestige of our Ming Dynasty.”
Yu Qian angrily berated in the court,"Stupid! Great Ming's current prosperity was all exchanged for by the peace at the border over the years. If we let our Great Ming Empire continue to be in chaos, how can our Great Ming be strong? I hope Your Majesty can reconsider."
The two ministers in the court were engaged in a war of words over Wala's large-scale attack.
Zhu Qizhen said leisurely,"The Imperial Brother-in-law must be punished, but the prestige of our Great Ming Empire cannot be damaged."”
Could it be that the Emperor already had a foolproof plan?
"Send the criminal justice to detain the country's brother-in-law and hand him over to the Imperial Clan Court. As for Wala, if it wanted to fight, then it could fight. Today, I have dealt with the country's brother-in-law not because I am afraid of Wala, but because I want to tell the world that a prince who breaks the law is the same as a commoner. No one can ignore the laws of Ming Dynasty!”
The ministers were speechless.
Zhu Qizhen's words shocked the officials.
This was definitely not something a 9-year-old king could handle!
However, the ruler in front of them was so decisive. How could they not be surprised?
Yu Qian was extremely excited.
He suddenly felt that this nine-year-old king in front of him was definitely a rare sage.
If he was properly assisted, he would definitely not be inferior to the previous emperor.
Yu Qian knelt on the ground and immediately kowtowed."Your Majesty is wise! God bless my Ming Dynasty. Long live my emperor!”
As soon as Yu Qian finished speaking, all the ministers prostrated themselves on the ground."God bless my Great Ming, long live my emperor!”
Ding! Prestige 10…
Ding! Prestige 10…
Ding! Prestige 10…
……
The system notification continued to ring in Zhu Qizhen's mind.
It was rare in history for the ministers to be convinced by the rule of a nine-year-old emperor.
And Zhu Qizhen had done it.
Zhu Qizhen did not show the slightest joy at the kneeling of the officials. Instead, anger gradually surfaced on his face.
Hualala!
Zhu Qizhen picked up a memorial and threw it in front of the ministers.
He was as cold as ice, and he was furious.
"Wuchang Prefecture's water control was not good. The flood caused the families of the people to be destroyed and the people to be displaced. Pingliang Prefecture drought, the allocation of 100,000 taels of silver, but the disaster became more serious. You are very concerned about Wala's matters, but you have not reported the matters of the common people. Do you really think I am blind and deaf?”
The emperor was furious, and the officials below the steps trembled once again. Everyone was in danger.
Don't think that just because the Emperor was a 9-year-old child, you can bully his ignorance.
He was now a true dragon!
When the emperor was angry, corpses would fall everywhere!
The ministers of the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works were trembling violently.
They all stepped out and knelt on the ground, wailing loudly,"Your Majesty, this subject is guilty! This subject is guilty!"
Zhu Qizhen said coldly,"Take them to the Supreme Court for a thorough investigation. Those who embezzled the money for disaster relief will be severely punished." The Minister of Works was dismissed from his post by the Ministry of Justice for failing to control the water!”
Not long after, guards dragged the two ministers away.
"Retreat!"
After the words 'retreat' were said, all the ministers broke out in cold sweat as if a heavy burden had been lifted off their shoulders…
Now that the Son of Heaven of Ming Dynasty had really become a true dragon, he must not easily anger him!
