The Empress took out a memorial and handed it to Gao Lingfeng, saying,""Your Majesty, I'm here for this memorial.”
Gao Lingfeng quickly flipped through the memorial. He quickly saw the contents of Lin Wan 'er's notes in small regular script.
It turned out that this was a memorial from the Liao Town General.
Liao Town was the front line of the Great Gan Dynasty's resistance against the barbarians in the north.
During the reign of Emperor Taizu, the army of the Great Gan Dynasty gathered from Liao Town and attacked the Northern Barbarians.
But during Taizong's era, the tribes of the northern barbarians united and gradually rose.
Taizong began to build the Great Wall and blockhouses in Liao Town, gradually shifting from offense to defense.
During the period of the late emperor, the Northern Barbarians went south from Liao Town many times to threaten the capital region of the empire.
Later on, it was the Shenwu Marquis Yang Tianwu who personally led the Royal Guards to attack Liao Town.
They had defeated the main force of the Northern Barbarians in the battle of Liao Town.
This ushered in the late Empress's ten years of peace.
However, after Gao Lingfeng took over the throne, the new Lord of the Northern Barbarians took over.
The ambitious Lord of the Prairie began to rise again.
Liao Town was under immense pressure.
Liao Town was a semi-militarized area. There was no governor or county magistrate here, only the Liao Town commander was in charge of the army and the people.
This memorial was submitted by the Liao Town General.
The content was also very simple.
In order to defend against the Northern Barbarians, Liao Town had suffered great losses.
Many of the soldiers were disabled.
Liao Town was in the northern region. It was bitterly cold and the environment was harsh.
Every winter, many disabled soldiers would freeze to death or starve to death.
This greatly affected the morale of the Liao Town soldiers and civilians.
Therefore, the Liao Town Commander requested the imperial court to help these disabled soldiers.
So it was this matter.
This was in line with Yang Tianwu's character of caring for his soldiers.
As expected, Yang Tianwu stepped into the front hall.
Gao Lingfeng quickly went up to greet him.
Gao Lingfeng still respected this pillar general.
Gao Lingfeng would not lay a hand on Yang Tianwu even if he was a fatuous ruler.
Other than having a bad temper, the descendants of Marquis Divine Martial had served the country for generations.
He could be considered the Empire's most loyal military officer.
Gao Lingfeng treated him with courtesy, and the Senior Marquis 'expression became a little better.
"Your Majesty, have you read the memorial from the Liao Town Commander?”
"Old Marquis, Zhen has already seen it.”
The Old Marquis sighed and said," Your Majesty, it's hard on the soldiers. It's not easy to guard the border. I'm afraid the morale of the Northern Territory will be hurt if they are crippled and frozen to death."”
"I already know that the Old Marquis loves his soldiers like his own children," Gao Lingfeng said. I was just about to instruct the cabinet to handle it."
At this moment, the system suddenly popped up.
Discovering national policies! How to arrange for disabled soldiers!
This national policy can change the fate of the country. Do you want to hold an Imperial Conference?
Wait, this triggered the system?
He could continue to ruin the country's fate!
Gao Lingfeng stood up happily!
The last time he built the East Chamber, he lost 5000 points of National Fate!
Am I going to become an immortal?
"Senior Marquis," Gao Lingfeng immediately said,"we should discuss this matter properly."”
The Old Marquis nodded.
"I don't think we can hand it over to the cabinet!" Gao Lingfeng continued. This matter needs to be discussed by the ministers."
Seeing Gao Lingfeng's enthusiasm, Yang Tianwu asked doubtfully,""It's just to settle some disabled soldiers. There's no need for such a big formation, right?”
According to their thoughts, they wanted the Imperial Court to give these disabled soldiers a pension.
It was enough to help them tide over the difficulties.
The previous emperor had done this before.
However, he didn't expect Gao Lingfeng to call a meeting to discuss this matter.
Yang Tianwu did not expect this.
"I'll issue the decree now!" Gao Lingfeng continued. Hold an Imperial Conference!"
Yang Tianwu was also confused by Gao Lingfeng's positive attitude.
"Someone come! Summon the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, Lord Lin, the Minister of Revenue, Lord Wu, and the relevant officials to the royal study for a meeting!”
"Old Marquis, you should also attend as a representative of the nobility!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yang Tianwu nodded.”
Soon, Lin Jiancheng, who was working in the cabinet, received the eunuch's order.
Imperial Conference?
His Majesty didn't attend the morning court session, but actually called for an Imperial Conference?
It seemed that His Majesty had not completely given up control of the Imperial Court.
Lin Jiancheng tidied his official robes and was led to the royal study by the eunuch.
The placement of disabled soldiers involved the Ministry of Revenue, and the rewards and punishments of officers were managed by the Military Selection Division of the Ministry of Rites.
Therefore, the ministers of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Revenue were called to participate in this meeting.
Even before entering the royal study, the Minister of Revenue was already complaining.
"Lord Chief! The deficit of the Ministry of Revenue was too big! They really could not afford the compensation for these soldiers!”
The Minister of Personnel Affairs also said,"The military towns in the various places are also full. There's really no place to accommodate these disabled military schools."”
Lin Jiancheng was also having a headache.
A clever housewife can't cook without rice. The reason why the memorial of the Liao Town Commander was sent all the way to the Emperor was that the Emperor was not afraid of it.
It was also because the national treasury was out of money.
All the officials in the court were waiting for the Emperor to allocate money from the palace treasury.
Lin Jiancheng also knew the difficulties of the imperial court.
However, he was different from those ordinary officials.
He had always been planning to reform and become stronger!
This Imperial Conference was the opportunity that Lin Jiancheng had been waiting for.
Only by letting the emperor realize the financial difficulties of the country.
Only then would the emperor support his reform.
Finally, Gao Lingfeng arrived at the royal study.
The ministers entered the royal study.
As soon as he entered the royal study, he saw the black-faced Marquis Shenwu, Yang Tianwu.
The Minister of Revenue's face turned pale.
With this god here, the Ministry of Revenue was definitely going to bleed this time!
