Chapter 323 Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn the boat

On the way back, Cao Nai looked strange and wanted to speak but stopped many times.

Seeing this, Zhu Qizhen said, "What do you mean by your family, but it's okay to say it."

Cao Nai thought for a while before saying, "The emperor cared for the people, this is a blessing for all the people in the world. The old minister is very pleased, but..."

"But how?"

"The old minister thinks that the emperor is the king of a country and should focus on national affairs. As for these minor matters, such as Liu San's case, someone will deal with it, so there is no need to bother the emperor to ask about it personally..."

Zhu Qizhen suddenly asked, "What is a national event?"

Cao Nai replied: "As the saying goes, those who accomplish great things do not care about small matters. If the king has the king's way, the minister has the way, the people will naturally have the way of the people. What the emperor needs to do is to plan and what the ministers want to do is to implement the emperor's will in place layer by layer. What the people need to do is to implement the emperor's will in place. If the people think that the county government's case is unfair, they can also go to the government government to sue, and there is also the Ministry of Justice. If the emperor has to do such a small matter personally, forgive me and say frankly, it is really a bit... putting the cart before the horse."

In fact, he had been holding these words in his heart for a long time, and today he finally couldn't help but vent his anger.

It is a good thing that the emperor is polite to the people, but you can’t ask about everything yourself, right?

There are more than tens of millions of people in the world, can you control it?

Zhu Qizhen smiled faintly and asked again: "You have seen the whole process of this case with your own eyes. If I turn a deaf ear, Shuntian Mansion will close the case with false accusation. Not only will Liu San die in vain, but his family will not be cleared, even Peng Qing's family and those crew members will be implicated. Is this a trivial matter?"

Cao Nai looked guilty and said, "This is indeed a dereliction of duty by me. After I returned, I immediately agreed with the Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of Justice, Censorate, Dali Temple and other relevant people to avoid such a thing from happening again. However, I still want to say that after all, it is just a civil case and is not worth the emperor's personal effort."

His meaning is very clear. Although we were wrong, this is not a reason to come out every day.

If you are the emperor, just stay in the palace and write memorials.

If there is anything, there will naturally be corresponding people to do it. You can't mess with the rules.

Otherwise, if you go to investigate the case every day, who will review the memorials?

When encountering national affairs, who will we report to?

I am the chief minister of the cabinet, not the governor. If you are not in the palace and something happens suddenly, who will make the decision?

Faced with Cao Nai's advice, Zhu Qizhen slowly shook his head.

"Cao Qing, I'm here to ask you, isn't the Liu San case considered a big deal? Human life is at stake. Liu San's family of three lives, all three deaths will be in vain. Who can they ask for their wronged souls?"

Cao Nai had no choice but to say: "I admit that this case reflects some problems in the officialdom. Please rest assured that I will make rectifications as soon as possible."

"The officialdom should be rectified, but it is not a simple matter of rectifying a Changping County or a Shuntian Prefecture. I think the current situation is the hearts of those officials. Is they official for power, money, or the people? Now that the national treasury is abundant, I have never deducted the salaries of officials. However, there are still many people like Wang Ying, Changping County who are jealous of money. How should they be rectified?"

"Water can carry boats, but also overturn the boats. This world is my world and the people. If the officials only want to make money, how can the world be stable? Every year we call for rectification of the administration, the Censorate goes here to investigate, there, and after investigation, has the officialdom changed?"

"What I want to rectify is the hearts of the people. It is said that parents are officials, parents are officials, and what are parents? Whose parents are sohave when they see their children suffer grievances? Cao Qing, if it is your son, if he finds that his family is killed, he will sue him, but he is falsely accused and loses his life in vain, would you like to see it?"

Cao Nai's face looked very ugly. My son died and his family was not me?

I'll discuss it with you, there's no need to curse me to die...

However, he also fully understood that the emperor had made up his mind and could not persuade him in just a few words.

Since the Battle of Tumu Fort, the emperor has become a different person.

In the past, although he was a little naughty and favored Wang Zhen, he could still listen to other officials' advice.

At least in terms of face, I will not directly refute it, and my attitude is so firm.

Having said that, if you think carefully about what the emperor said, there is indeed some truth.

It’s just... it’s too ideal. As the saying goes, one general succeeds and thousands of bones are undone. This is even more true for those who are the king. Many times, human life is worthless.

Zhu Qizhen saw that he was trapped in deep thoughts and did not continue to speak.

After all, in this era, human life is like a mustard of grass. Who cares about the life of a commoner?

Take it slowly, it always takes a process.

"By the way, Cao Qing, do you still remember the bet between us?"

Cao Nai looked confused, why did he suddenly run to the bet?

I just said that you, the emperor, should be more serious and focus on national affairs. What are you betting on?

"When I go back to the emperor, I seem to remember that the emperor once said that Longsheng Money House is a liar, and he also said that without using force, Longsheng Money House will show its true form within five days. It is the second day, and there are three days left."

"In my opinion, it won't take three days!"

Zhu Qizhen shook his head gently and said, "It's almost time, the tail of this old fox is about to be revealed."

Cao Nai was puzzled and asked, "I ordered someone to inquire this morning. Longsheng Money House has a large business and a wide range of business. Moreover, the capital transactions have steadily increased every day. It is said that yesterday afternoon, there was also a mysterious large order, with an astonishing amount."

Zhu Qizhen smiled confidently and said, "Wait, there will be a result soon!"

Cao Nai didn't pay attention to this matter at first, after all, he didn't follow the venture capital investment. However, seeing the emperor so confident, he couldn't help but feel suspicious. When the carriage passed by Longsheng Money House, he couldn't help lifting the curtains.

At this time, there were traffic at the entrance of Longsheng Money House, and people were everywhere, so how could they look like a liar?

If they were liars, would these people be fools?

Zhu Qizhen also glanced at him, but there was no expression.

He knew that the show was about to begin.

While Zhu Ji went to Changping, Yuan Bin also took action.

The Jinyiwei set up a net of heaven and earth in the capital and surrounding areas, waiting for the old fox to get in by himself.

Within three days, you will see the answer!—
