The hall was silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Tian.
They wanted to see what kind of logic this reckless fellow who only knew how to play to the gallery could come up with.
"His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and the problems left behind by the previous dynasty still exist. The previous dynasty created the Grand Canal, causing the people to live in poverty. The people of the world have suffered greatly. In addition, disasters have often occurred in recent years, and the lives of the people are already very difficult!”
"Although His Majesty has reduced taxes and taken many measures after he ascended the throne, he did not have much time to recover. What is the difference between the current and the previous dynasties?”
"The commoners are suffering, and the Imperial Court has just undergone a huge change. In the eyes of outsiders, this is the best opportunity to break through us. The Turks have been coveting the Great Hall for more than a day or two!”
"I would like to ask His Majesty and everyone present, in this situation where we have neither money nor food, and the hearts of the people are unstable, what will happen if the Great Tang faces an external enemy?”Xiao Tian said slowly.
At the end of his sentence, he glanced at everyone and asked a question.
As Xiao Tian spoke, Li Er, the civil officials, and the generals in the hall all had ugly expressions on their faces.
They had to admit that what Xiao Tian said was the truth.
They had just established a new regime, and everything was still waiting to be done.
The Great Tang was currently at its weakest. Let alone the Turks, even the slightest problem at the border could affect the entire situation.
Li Er's breathing began to quicken…
Even though he did not speak, his gaze swept back and forth across everyone.
The meaning was very simple. He had already thrown out the problem. If there was any good solution, hurry up and say it!
What are you waiting for?
It was a pity.
The surroundings were still quiet. Even Wei Zheng, who was usually the most talkative and had the most irritable temper, was exceptionally quiet at this moment. He did not say a word.
If there was a solution, how could he watch this kid be so arrogant?
With just one person's strength, he made all the civil and military officials speechless?
Ding…Host is facing a choice. The system is starting to issue the options!
[Option 1: This is the best time to suck up to the emperor. You should quickly and respectfully offer a plan to help the emperor and the ministers solve the problem!] [Reward: 2,000 steamed buns!]
[Option 2: Curse everyone present. None of them can solve the problem. Whether or not they offer a plan depends on their mood!] [Reward: 50,000 horseshoes!]
At this moment, the system notification sounded in Xiao Tian's mind.
This f * cking system had finally appeared!
Seeing these two options, he made a choice without hesitation.
"Option 2!"
Whether it was the final reward or this method, it was what Xiao Tian wanted to see the most.
He was an important official of the imperial court who thought highly of himself and flaunted his might in front of an ordinary person like him. Now, he was speechless when faced with a problem.
Shouldn't he be scolded?
" Hahaha…" Xiao Tian curled his lips and could not help but laugh out loud.
"When it comes to rules and flattery, each one is better than the other. Why can't you even fart when you encounter a critical problem?”
"Could it be that the people raised in the Imperial Court are just a bunch of trash who deserve to be beaten up by others?”
Silence!
Dead silence!
Standing in Xiao Tian's position, he could clearly hear the heavy breathing around him.
The two people who came with him to participate in the court examination were so scared that they were sweating profusely and trembling all over. They had completely lost the ability to think.
As for the two eunuchs in charge of him, they had already fainted from fear.
The faces of the civil officials were gloomy. They looked at Xiao Tian and gritted their teeth, but they could not say a word. After all, what the other party said was the truth.
However…
The generals couldn't stand this!
"Where did this country boy come from? How dare he be so arrogant here? How can a kid like you comment on the important matters of the Imperial Court?”
"It wasn't easy for us to conquer the country. Where was this kid when we went to the battlefield? Now that you've come out to point fingers, you should compete with me if you have the ability!”
The generals cursed and swore, looking at Xiao Tian with ill intentions.
If not for the fact that they were in Taiji Palace and the Emperor was here, these people would have long rushed up to teach this kid a lesson.
The old general Qin Qiong coughed lightly. He did not curse, nor did he look angry. He only took two steps forward and said to Xiao Tian," I'll let you use one hand. Let's have a competition!"”
As soon as he said this, the generals behind him immediately cheered.
He should teach this kid a lesson!
Qin Qiong's meaning was very simple. What was the use of saying so many fancy words?
Whether it was a mule or a horse, if you had the ability, bring it out for a walk!
Li Er narrowed his eyes and stared at the calm Xiao Tian.
He didn't stop Qin Qiong's actions, which could be considered as tacitly agreeing to his actions.
However…
Li Er didn't want to punish Xiao Tian. Instead, he wanted to use Qin Qiong to provoke Xiao Tian. Li Er was very sure that this guy must have a countermeasure in mind for daring to say such words.
He was also very curious about what this guy could say…
