"You want to sit in the Ministry of Works with just a few words? Isn't that too whimsical? Is the Ministry of Works the most important place in the Imperial Court? How can I let a country bumpkin like you cause trouble?”Imperial Censor Duan Lun sneered and mocked.
He was a member of the Wang family in Taiyuan. In the original plan, he was the candidate for the Minister of Works. If nothing unexpected happened, he would soon sit in that position.
Now, someone wanted to snatch it from him. In addition, as an imperial censor, his job was to scold people. How could he let this guy continue to flaunt his power?
As soon as Duan Lun spoke, the other four families nodded in agreement.
The situation suddenly became tense!
Li Er and the other important officials narrowed their eyes and watched the scene in front of them with interest.
In a sense, they were very willing to see such a situation.
Especially for Li Er!
Didn't he want the position of Minister of Works? If he had the ability, he would first get past the aristocratic families!
"The most important place?" Xiao Tian sneered and said mercilessly.
"Ever since His Majesty ascended the throne, the Ministry of Works has been completely useless. Instead, it has been like a malignant tumor that is sucking the blood of the Great Tang!”
"A bunch of trash who only do nothing every day. If this continues, the Great Tang will probably be squeezed dry. If you don't have the ability, then don't occupy a position!”
Xiao Tian's merciless rebuke made Li Er and the other important officials feel very comfortable.
They had long disliked some people, but because of their relationship and status, they had no chance to vent their anger.
Now that he saw Xiao Tian cursing to his heart's content, he immediately felt an indescribable sense of comfort.
This kid was definitely extraordinary!
This was what Li Er and the others were thinking!
Regardless of his identity and ability, just the fact that he was fearless and merciless in front of the aristocratic families was enough to make them look at him in a different light.
"You mean…you will definitely be able to do something?”Duan Lun retorted.
There was no need for him to discuss the Ministry of Works with this kid. He just wanted to provoke Xiao Tian, and it would be best if he could make him say something big.
This way…they would have ten thousand ways to deal with this kid!
"In three months, I will definitely make the Ministry of Works unleash its full potential!”Xiao Tian extended three fingers and said casually.
"Anyone can brag…"
"I'm willing to make a military pledge. If I can't, I'll bring my head up to see you!”Xiao Tian snorted again. "However, in order to achieve such an effect, His Majesty must grant the people the power to kill!”
"Good!" Li Er immediately made a decision.
Actually…
This was the result he had been waiting for. The more confident Xiao Tian was, the more it meant that he must have extraordinary means. How could Li Er not know the exact situation in the Ministry of Works?
For someone like Xiao Tian, who was fearless and didn't give anyone face, placing him in the Ministry of Works might have unexpected results.
" Then let's wait and see..." Duan Lun sneered.
Forget about three months, so what if he was given three years?
The Ministry of Works was their world, and everyone was from the aristocratic families. Wouldn't it be easy to deal with such a kid?
With Li Er's approval, Xiao Tian's position as the Minister of Works was decided.
As this matter was confirmed, the court session ended. For the two people who came with Xiao Tian, the earlier it ended, the better.
Every moment here was torture for them.
After most of the people had gone up, Zhangsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, and the others consciously stayed behind.
When Li Er announced the end, they had already received the hint.
"What do you think about the problems that Xiao Tian mentioned?”Li Er looked at his think tank and asked.
Everyone fell silent…
They naturally knew what the Emperor was talking about. Xiao Tian had thoroughly criticized the Great Tang, and all the problems had been laid out in the open.
Not to mention the Emperor, even they felt embarrassed.
However, he had to admit that these were all facts!
"Your Majesty, the situation might be more serious than he said!”Fang Xuanling sighed.
"Right now, the national treasury is very empty. The world has just settled down, and the people's hearts are unstable. The army also urgently needs to recuperate. Everything needs a lot of time and energy to recover!”
"Just as Xiao Tian said, if the Great Tang were to suffer from external enemies, there would be no good way to deal with them.”
As soon as Fang Xuanling finished speaking, Wei Zheng immediately spoke.
"His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and this is the most sensitive time. The Turks have been eyeing the Great Tang covetously. If they receive news of this, danger will soon arrive!”
Zhangsun Wuji did not say anything. Instead, he took out a memorial from his bosom. On it was a detailed record of the actual situation in various places.
Li Er only took a glance at the contents of the memorial, and his face darkened to the extreme.
Good heavens.
He only told her the truth at such a time. That was not what he said before!
"Your Majesty, now is the time to make drastic changes. This Xiao Tian…might really bring us a surprise!”Zhangsun Wuji hesitated for a moment before looking at Li Er and saying.
Li Er put down the memorial in his hand and looked in the direction of the Ministry of Works. He muttered to himself," Xiao Tian, Xiao Tian, don't disappoint me!”
