One hundred and fortieth chapters consecutive decree
If you only care about life and death for the benefit of the country, why should you avoid it because of misfortunes and blessings?
Such words actually came from a eunuch!
Many princes and ministers looked at Fang Chen in disbelief, while Zhang Yu, Liu Yuanqing and others almost ran out of words and cursed.
Fang Chen's words almost pointed at their noses and called them traitors and traitors!
Only Luo Ningxin, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at Fang Chen below with admiration. This was exactly the effect she wanted.
With Fang Chen, he pulled out all the people hiding in the dark and dealt with them one by one.
"Your Majesty, Fang Chen is so shameless! He slandered us and other officials from the Ministry of Revenue out of thin air. Your Majesty, please make the decision!"
Liu Yuanqing knew that Zhang Yu could not come forward at this time. After all, the Ministry of Household Affairs was not in a good position to provide disaster relief.
And Fang Chen is favored by His Majesty at the moment. If Zhang Yu opens his mouth to quarrel with him again.
Maybe Luo Ningxin will have to use the topic to make further use of it.
Now I can only stand up and deal with this damn eunuch!
When others saw this, they understood what he was thinking, and thought that this man named Liu was completely wearing the same pants as the Minister of the Ministry of Finance!
Seeing this, Luo Ningxin said calmly: "Mr. Liu, whether Fang Chen is being arrogant or not is something that cannot be decided by just empty words."
When Liu Yuanqing heard this, he also knew that Luo Ningxin was determined by the weight and insisted on pushing Fang Chen to the top.
Is this good enough?
The East Factory was established and Jinyiwei was established.
As long as everyone present is not a fool, it will be clear to everyone what Her Majesty the Empress has in mind.
To put it bluntly, Luo Ning was determined to strengthen the rule of the imperial power by performing the duty of supervising all the officials, so that they, the ministers, could not live too comfortably.
Most of the people sitting here have nothing dirty to do in private? If this Dongchang is really established, wouldn’t His Majesty be able to fuck whoever he wants in the future?
Then how can we all make a fortune together by eating well and having fun together?
Therefore, this East Factory must not be established!
Many ministers thought this way and began to consider their own interests. Even if they were not with Zhang Yu and Liu Yuanqing, they all stood up now.
"Your Majesty, I believe that the Dongchang matter should not be taken too hastily. Although Manager Fang is talented, after all, he was born as an eunuch and has stayed in the palace all year round. I am afraid he does not know much about the inside and outside of the imperial capital."
One of the more astute ministers said with a smile, but did not object to Luo Ningxin's decision right away.
Instead, he started to find fault with Fang Chen, and his words were so reasonable and well-founded that it was difficult to refute.
Fang Chen glanced at the minister who was speaking, with a calm expression: "My lord, don't speak too early. I will show you how much I weigh, Fang Chen, in the future."
"Everyone can say anything with their lips. This is something everyone knows. Isn't it a bit boastful for Mr. Fang to say this?"
The other party smiled and said: "Furthermore, His Majesty has made it clear just now. Dongchang has hundreds of supervisors to maintain public security and management in the imperial capital, and even have the power to arrest and interrogate."
"It would be bad if there is an unjust, false or wrongful conviction due to carelessness, or if the capital is mismanaged."
"oh?"
Fang Chen smiled: "Then why don't you give me Fang Chen a few months to do something practical? Let the adults take a good look at it?"
At this moment, Zhang Yu, whose face had been a bit ugly from the beginning, suddenly showed a strange smile.
"Your Majesty, since General Manager Fang is so confident, let's just follow what he said. However, I think everything must be compared, so why not let Mr. Liu, the Minister, and General Manager Fang compare?"
"What kind of comparison?" Luo Ning thought to herself.
The minister whom Fang Chen had argued with earlier revealed his true intentions at this moment and said with a smile: "I also agree with Mr. Zhang's proposal, let Mr. Fang and Mr. Liu compete, and each of them choose a place to govern in the imperial capital.
, for a period of two months.”
"When two months are up, Your Majesty will personally inspect and accept the results of the two men's governance. Whoever wins will be the owner of the Dongchang Factory. What does Your Majesty think?"
Luo Ningxin glanced at Fang Chen first, and after getting the signal from his eyes, she said, "What do you two think?"
"I have no objection."
Fang Chen and Liu Yuanqing said in unison.
"Okay! Commander Lin Yi of the Military and Horse Department."
"I'm here." An official at the back stood up with a grimace.
He is the commander-in-chief of the Military and Horse Department of the Five Cities of the Imperial Capital. His official rank is not high, only the fourth rank.
The Wucheng Bingma Si refers to the five yamen in the five cities in the southeast, northwest, and northwest of the imperial capital.
This department is similar to today's urban management, responsible for clearing urban channels, fire fighting, night patrol, anti-theft, etc.
It is regarded as the administrative department of the imperial capital's public security, and it belongs to the kind of Qingshui Yamen that has more work and less oil and water.
The reason why Ji Yi was grimacing was because of the incident in Dongchang. Originally, managing the Imperial Capital was the job of their Military and Horse Division.
However, now that Luo Ningxin wants to establish Dongchang, it is obvious that he wants Dongchang to ban the Military and Horse Division.
Maybe Ji Ji will have to pack up and get out. It's surprising that he has such a good face.
Luo Ningxin: "Let's talk to Fang Chen and the others about the current situation in the imperial capital."
Lin Yi sighed in his heart: "As ordered."
He turned around and looked at Fang Chen and Liu Yuanqing: "You two, now the imperial capital has eight gates and five cities, with a total of thirteen streets and cities, of which the inner city occupies eight and the outer city only five. In addition, each street has its own
lane……"
"The outer city and the inner city are different because of the different residents. I won't go into details here. You will know when you go to the outer city and have a look. Since you two are competing, in my opinion, we should start from the outer city.
Let’s choose a city to compare..."
Lin Yi briefly explained the situation, and after finishing, he looked at Luo Ningxin: "Your Majesty, I have finished speaking."
Luo Ningxin looked at Fang Chen again: "You two have made your choice."
Liu Yuanqing immediately said: "Your Majesty, I choose Wenxuanfang!"
Lin Yi just said that 50% of the people living around Wenxuanfang in the outer city are scholars, and their quality is much higher than in other places.
He wanted to take advantage first.
Luo Ningxin frowned and was about to speak when she heard Fang Chen say: "Your Majesty, I have made my choice too. I choose Yanghuafang."
Not only Luo Ningxin was stunned, but all the ministers were also confused. Lin Yi, who was about to retreat, subconsciously said: "Manager Fang, did I not explain it clearly just now? This Yanghuafang is the most chaotic of the five cities in the outer city.
One!"
"You said it very clearly, and I heard it clearly."
Fang Chen smiled calmly: "But I still want to choose Yanghuafang!"
"Okay! Then I'll see how Manager Fang manages Yanghuafang!" Liu Yuanqing could hardly suppress the smile on his face.
I didn’t expect that Fang Chen would be so arrogant! He chose the most chaotic place!
I want to decide on the position of Duke of Dongchang Factory!
Now that Fang Chen has made the decision, even though Luo Ningxin is unhappy, she can't say anything and can only speak.
"Now that you two have made your choice, this matter is settled. I will personally test it in two months. During this period, you two can mobilize and command the people of the East and West Military and Horse Division at will!"
