Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 34 The Queen's Compromise



Chapter 34 The Queen's Compromise

Chen Yi felt that someone should have scolded him behind his back and said bad things about him just now.

If you scold, just scold, anyway, if you don't face to face, it doesn't matter.

Chen Yi immediately threw the messy thoughts out of his head.

Concentrate on the work in hand.

He smiled and looked at the craftsman who cared about him just now.

"Besides, you can all bear it, so how can I not bear it? It's okay, let's continue. By the way, you can see this part just now..."

Chen Yi and the craftsmen devoted themselves to the production of parts.

……

The imperial capital, the court hall.

The empress seemed to have finally lost, and said helplessly.

"My dear friends, please stand up. I have already used this money for other purposes. I can't get it back now. I can't help you begging me on your knees like this."

As soon as the empress' voice fell, she heard a mournful cry from the chief minister of the cabinet.

"Your Majesty! That money is meant to save people's lives. How can it be spent so easily? That's not our money, it's the people's money. It's just stored here temporarily."

When the chief minister of the cabinet said this, he patted himself on the chest and gave himself a sigh of relief.

"You have spent everything like this. What should we do if one day these merchants finally want to get the money back? And some policies in the later period need money. If these policies are not implemented, then the bank will be destroyed. It's in danger!"

The chief minister of the cabinet was earnestly persuading, coupled with his thin body and old face.

It has to be said that the overall artistic effect has reached sublimation.

Seeing the chief minister of the cabinet like this, the empress was also touched in her heart, and began to reflect on herself, it seemed that she really spent a little too much.

But the Alchemy Pavilion said there was no money, so it was just a little bit short.

I have already spent so much money before, and it would be a pity to stop now, and the previous money was wasted and wasted, wouldn't that make people feel more distressed?
So the empress could only grit her teeth and persist, and she had no choice.

"The widow knows it all. This time it is true that the widow is too reckless. This way, the widow promises not to do such a thing in the future. Even if the widow withdraws money from the bank in the future, he will be notified. How about it?"

When the chief minister of the cabinet heard the empress's assurance, especially the last sentence, that she would still have to withdraw money in the future, her eyes turned black and she collapsed on the ground.

The cabinet minister next to him was so frightened that he quickly reached out to support him, preventing the chief minister from falling down.

The empress was also frightened and stood up from the throne.

With a trace of panic, he shouted: "Cabinet Chief Assistant, are you okay? Quick! Please ask the imperial physician."

The chief minister of the cabinet, You Qi, weakly pushed away the person supporting him, knelt down again, then clasped his hands together at eyebrow level, and kowtowed without hesitation.

"Your Majesty! I beg your Majesty! Don't do this again in the future, Your Majesty! Today's Great Martial Kingdom can no longer do this."

The chief minister of the cabinet kowtowed three times in a row, and at the last moment, instead of raising his head, he just lowered his head and said in a muffled voice.

This is equivalent to throwing the five bodies to the ground, the highest etiquette.

The Empress looked at the aged minister below, who had been assisting her since she first ascended the throne.

Now that she kneeled down and begged herself like this, the empress felt ashamed and felt ashamed, so the empress just muttered quietly for a while.

Finally, he sighed softly and said it as if he was compromising.

"Master Shoufu, please hurry up, I understand, I promise that I will not do this again in the future, in order to show my sincerity, let's do this."

When the empress said this, she paused and gritted her teeth.

Finished with one last breath.

"From now on, the management of the bank will be transferred from the Ministry of Accounts to the cabinet for full management. After that, anyone who wants to withdraw money from the bank must obtain the approval of the cabinet and the verification of the Ministry of Accounts. The same is true for the widow , what do you think, Mr. Shoufu?"

After the empress finished speaking, she held back the trace of internal pain in her heart and looked at the chief assistant of the cabinet.

The chief assistant of the cabinet let out a long breath.

When the chief minister of the cabinet heard what the empress said, she knew that the empress was truly determined to change.

Now, this farce has come to an end, at least when the Empress withdraws money from the bank in the future, she won't just take it away without saying a word.

Their cabinet will always block it once, and if it can be blocked eight times out of ten, it can be regarded as saving two sums of money.

The chief assistant of the cabinet accepted it as soon as he saw it, and immediately said movedly: "Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty can stop the loss in time, and the old minister is really gratified."

The chief minister of the cabinet kowtowed again as he spoke.

The expression on the empress's face finally relaxed a lot, at least the chief minister of the cabinet gave herself a step down.

"Okay, all you mistresses are invited, you are the pillars of the country, you are my mistresses! If this continues, the body will not be able to take it anymore, and the widow will not be able to bear it either."

The chief minister of the cabinet stood up immediately, and the other minister next to him also stood up after the chief minister of the cabinet.

Just like mushrooms springing up after rain, they got up one by one.

As for the court, except for the cabinet, the faces of other ministers are not very good, and some of them are slow to turn their heads, which is completely out of the matter.

I don't understand why I kneel and stand, it's like changing the sky.

And those shrewd ministers, especially the various ministers, had brilliant expressions on their faces.

Everyone was scolding the old fox, the chief minister of the cabinet, for kneeling down, and everyone knelt down together. Finally, why was the management of the bank transferred to the cabinet?
This matter was completely beyond the expectations of other courtiers.

It has developed like this in a daze, and what I want to say at this time seems a bit too obvious and far-fetched.

You must know that this bank is a good job.

All the money in the world flows through the bank, and when any department needs money in the future, it needs to go through the cabinet, which makes the cabinet instantly become the center of the court, the sweet pastry.

Who dared to do anything to them, they all regretted it.

You must know that the current situation in the Dawu Kingdom is so chaotic, and the people lack food and clothing, not only because the Empress is determined to obtain this elixir, but also because of the complicated party struggles within the court.

The roots and knots are intertwined, and one hair can move the whole body. The empress has never dared to do anything to them, and can only check and balance each other to maintain a relative balance.

Today's morning court, the Empress never expected it.

He took hundreds of taels of silver by himself, and even made all the ministers work together and unite.

So the empress went for the next best thing and made such a guarantee.

"My loves, I guess everyone is tired. If there is nothing else to do, let's go."
