"I know very well that among you people, there are people who are greedy for money that far exceeds Xuchang's!
"I also know that there are people among you who are buying and selling official positions!”
"We dare not," said the courtiers in unison.”
"You don't dare? There's something you don't dare to do?
"The Great Han Empire is my empire, and the people of the world are my people."
"I'm telling you, I will investigate thoroughly! Investigate it thoroughly!"
"Malfeasance! Greedy! Buying and selling official positions! Zhen will make him never reincarnate!"
Liu Che suddenly turned around and strode back to the dragon throne.
The ministers in the hall were already drenched in sweat.
Even though the Emperor was only lecturing in the court.
However, in the eyes of some of the officials, the sky had collapsed!
If His Majesty were to investigate thoroughly, these officials would die without a burial place!
Liu Che glanced at Prime Minister Wei Wan and Grand Marshal Han Anguo.
After saying a few words to Chun Tuo, he stood up and left the court.
"Retreat!" Chun Tuo shouted.”
In the main hall, the officials wiped the cold sweat off their foreheads with their sleeves.
The few words that the emperor had said in the court almost made them fall down in the main hall.
After the court session ended, all the civil and military officials walked out in an orderly manner.
Wei Wan and Han Anguo were walking out when the eunuch stopped them and said,"
"Milords, His Majesty has decreed that after the court session, the three of you will go to Weiyang Palace to see His Majesty…"
The three ministers were surprised. They did not dare to guess the emperor's will.
He followed the eunuch to Weiyang Palace.
Liu Che returned to Weiyang Palace after the court session.
Wei Wan, Han Anguo, and the others were led to Weiyang Palace by eunuchs to wait for orders.
Liu Che had already changed into his usual clothes and was sitting on the dragon chair in Weiyang Palace.
When Prime Minister Wei Wan, Grand Marshal Han Anguo, and Imperial Censor Zhao Wan saw Liu Che, they quickly cupped their hands and bowed,"
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Liu Che waved his hand and said,"No need to be so polite."”
After Liu Che sat down on the dragon throne, he said,""Bestow your seat."
A few eunuchs carried three armchairs over. Wei Wan and the others were terrified and quickly said,"I dare not."
Liu Che casually said,"The three beloved ministers are my right-hand men. Please take a seat."”
When Wei Wan, Han Anguo, and Zhao Wan heard the Emperor's words, they finally sat down.
At this moment, they began to wonder what His Majesty was thinking.
Ever since His Majesty ascended the throne, he had never summoned them in the palace.
"My three beloved ministers, how have you been recently?”
The Emperor's sudden concern for their well-being made the three of them even more at a loss.
Not long ago, His Majesty had just killed a group of eunuchs.
In the hearts of all the civil and military officials in the court, the current emperor was not a good person.
Now that the Emperor was so amiable, Wei Wan and the others couldn't help but guess,
The little Emperor was probably brewing some unknown conspiracy.
Liu Che didn't expect that the more pleasant he was, the more afraid the officials were.
"The three of you are all important ministers.”
Wei Wan and Han Anguo looked at each other.
The two of them thought to themselves, The Emperor really has something important to give them.”
"I am willing to do my best for Your Majesty until I die.”Han Anguo said.
Liu Che suddenly stood up and said,"Good!" With Minister Han's words, I am very comforted!”
"Do the three lords know how much grain the empire earns in a year?”
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the tax on fertile land in all the prefectures of the Great Han Dynasty last year was 5.9 million stones."”
"As expected of the Prime Minister, he has everything in his mind…"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Che turned around and walked to the front of the Dragon Book table. He held an imperial edict that had been written long ago in his hand.
"Wei Wan, Han Anguo, Zhao Wan, receive the decree!”
"I accept the decree!"
Wei Wan and Han Anguo bowed to receive the decree.
Liu Che announced,"Order the three ministers of Shangshu Tai to survey the fertile fields of the world and bestow upon them the Imperial Sword. Seeing this sword is like seeing the Son of Heaven!”
Liu Che took down the sword hanging behind him!
Liu Che had made up his mind to investigate the fertile fields in the world!
Kill gods, kill buddhas, kill buddhas!
The three ministers also realized that there was a huge problem with the Great Han Empire's tax system. The poor were heavily burdened while the rich paid very little.
If this continued, it would be detrimental to the Great Han Empire.
"This lowly subject receives the decree!"
Prime Minister Wei Wan received the decree and the Emperor's sword.
After the three of them left Weiyang Palace, they realized that their clothes were completely soaked.
They knew very well that the little Emperor had already conducted an in-depth investigation of all the officials in the court.
Obviously, this was the work of Chun Tuo and Han Yan.
The little Emperor didn't probe further into their wealth, otherwise, they would be unable to defend themselves.
The burly man had been ill for a long time and had finally reached the point of scraping his bones to treat the poison.
Wei Wan and the other two sighed and made up their minds. They would never let down the Emperor's kindness.
If His Majesty was dissatisfied, his life would be in danger.
