"This humble subject agrees!"
"I agree with the proposal of the ministers!”
"Your Majesty, please dismiss the doctor from the Ministry of Personnel and investigate!”
" There's also the Minister of Official Personnel Affairs. There seems to be some problems that require the Ministry of Justice to investigate…"
The Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Works, and many other ministers all agreed!
At this moment, the Minister of Official Personnel Affairs, Zhang Yuanjing, had his face flushed red. He was shocked and furious!
He did not expect so many ministers to jump out and publicly impeach him!
Prime Minister Yan Luo's power was so terrifying?
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little regretful.
Was he being too anxious?
However, who would have thought that the Prime Minister, who was clearly on the verge of death and was seriously ill, would suddenly come back to life?
If he had known this would happen, he would not have dared to covet the position of Prime Minister even if he had a hundred guts!
Seeing this, Emperor Qian's face turned cold and he shouted,"
"Are you forcing me to make a decision?”
"I don't dare…"
"We are just discussing the matter. We hope that Your Majesty will be fair and strict…"
The ministers spoke in fear, but there was no fear on their faces.
This made Emperor Qian laugh out of anger!
"What a good prime minister!"
"What method did he use to make these ministers so united?!”
Emperor Qian didn't expect that he would encounter such a huge resistance on his first time attending the imperial court.
Fortunately, at this moment, the Minister of War, Wu Linfeng, stood out and said in a deep voice,"
"The truth of the matter still needs to be investigated carefully.”
"His Majesty is perceptive and fair in rewards and punishments. He will naturally make a decision!”
Everyone could not help but look over.
This minister held great military and political power, and was appointed by the late emperor to assist the new emperor!
Seeing Wu Linfeng speak up for him, Emperor Qian's expression eased a little.
Fortunately, he still had this trusted aide!
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to step down today.
At this moment.
Yan Luo suddenly said indifferently,"
"Since Your Majesty is clear about rewards and punishments, it's easy to handle.”
"Minister of the Ministry of Justice, I would like to ask you, what is the crime of insulting your superiors and disrupting the court?”
"Those who slander the government will be killed with a stick according to the law!" Li Yan, the minister of the Ministry of Justice, said seriously.”
"Everyone here saw what the doctor of the Ministry of Personnel did just now.”
Yan Luo nodded as if he was talking about something unimportant.
"Then we will do it according to the law. I believe that His Majesty is fair and strict, and will definitely not engage in favoritism.”
"Men, drag this dog official out and execute him!”
Several guards from the Ministry of Justice immediately rushed in and pulled Zheng Qiancheng away.
" I'm innocent!!!"
"Your Majesty, save me!"
"This lowly official was just unintentional.!”
Zheng Qiancheng shouted in horror.
Now, the Minister of Personnel Affairs behind him couldn't save him at all. Only Emperor Qian had the power to do so!
"Wait!"
As expected, Emperor Qian shouted coldly.
"Although the doctor of the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs spoke rudely, his crime does not warrant death!”
" Prime Minister, your actions are inappropriate!!"
Yan Luo's lips curved into a smile that was not a smile."
"What's wrong?"
"I am handling this matter impartially according to the laws of Da Qian.”
"The Minister of Justice has made it very clear. This is written in black and white in the laws of Da Qian.”
"Could it be that Your Majesty wants to publicly change the law?”
"Even if His Majesty wants to change the law, he will need to draft a document and pass the Ministry of Justice's approval…"
Emperor Qian was instantly rendered speechless.
Before he could react, Zheng Qiancheng had already been dragged out of the palace and executed with a cane!
A miserable cry resounded throughout the palace, like a pig being slaughtered, causing one's scalp to go numb.
Many officials felt a chill run up their spines and straight to the top of their heads!
As a doctor of the Ministry of Official Personnel, Zheng Qiancheng was a fifth-grade official. He was neither big nor small.
Furthermore, he had the protection of the Minister of Personnel and Emperor Qian.
He was still dragged out and beaten to death!
At this moment.
Everyone realized that the ruthless Prime Minister, the King of Hell, had returned!
The wails were quickly extinguished.
Everyone's hearts were still pounding.
After a long while, Emperor Qian said with a gloomy face,""Everyone, is there anything else important to report?”
Right now, he only wanted to end this court session as soon as possible!
At this moment, a minister took the initiative to say,"
"Your Majesty, I have another matter to report.”
"It's about taxes."
"Now that Your Majesty has just ascended the throne, this humble subject believes that all nobles should be exempted from taxes to achieve the effect of gathering the power of the upper class.”
The nobles of Great Qian Empire also needed to pay taxes, but the amount was very small.
If all their taxes were exempted, it would indeed be able to win over the hearts of the people.
Emperor Qian nodded. This was a good suggestion.
However, before he could speak, Yan Luo had already said firmly,
"Ignorant!"
"Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world. The taxes of the ordinary people should be reduced!”
"As for the nobles, the local tyrants, we should increase their taxes to increase the income of the national treasury!”
"Minister of Revenue, what do you think?”
Obviously, Yan Luo's last sentence was just a symbolic question!
The Minister of Revenue, Zhuang Yi, agreed without hesitation."Lord Prime Minister is wise!"
Emperor Qian was so angry that he couldn't say anything when he saw the two of them echoing each other.
Have you asked for my opinion?!
However, after thinking about it carefully, he did not seem to have any reason to refute Yan Luo.
There was nothing wrong with winning the hearts of the people.
However, increasing the taxes of those nobles would undoubtedly cause internal conflicts!
Before Emperor Qian could react, Yan Luo continued,"
"Your Majesty, the two left and right assistant ministers of the Ministry of Revenue were demoted. The Ministry of Justice has already investigated.”
"They were innocent. In my opinion, they should be immediately reinstated.”
Hearing this, many of the ministers had strange expressions!
There were indeed two assistant ministers in the Ministry of Revenue who were demoted. That was the order of the late emperor!
When he learned that these two people were colluding with the prime minister, the late emperor directly stripped them of their official positions.
As the saying goes, if you want to add a crime, you have to have a reason.
The Ministry of Revenue controlled the finances and taxes, the lifeline of the country's economy. The position of assistant minister was second only to the position of minister. It was definitely a lucrative job!
Everyone understood Yan Luo's intentions. He planned to place his men in these two positions again!
"Back then, the two of them were demoted under the orders of the late emperor! Could it be that the Prime Minister was doubting the late Emperor's decision?”
"Even if we want to investigate, we have to go through the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs 'review!”
Emperor Qian's face darkened. How could he let Yan Luo's subordinates return to their important positions?
The ministers couldn't help but be moved!
This new emperor still had some tricks up his sleeve.
He wanted to see how Yan Luo would deal with the previous emperor!
However, no one expected this.
Yan Luo avoided talking about the previous emperor.
He only glanced at Zhang Yuanjing indifferently.
"Then please take a good look at the information sent by the Ministry of Personnel.”
"If there are no problems, you must restore the two assistant ministers to their original positions within three days to show justice!”
"I will naturally review it carefully…" Zhang Yuanjing said in a deep voice.
"If there's nothing else, retreat!"
Emperor Qian couldn't stand it anymore. He was afraid that he would get sick from anger, so he hurriedly announced his withdrawal from the court.
Yan Luo glanced at his slender figure and a playful smile flashed across his eyes.
"Your father was kept in the dark by me. You little brat, what do you have to fight me?”
