Chapter five hundred and twentieth blatant preference
Meng Jiuling smiled. It seemed that what the Su family had done was explained at once. Su Sanlang's technique of pulling a thousand pounds was not weak.
What a great undertaking for a nationwide commercial bank to exchange money! This is not as simple as protecting the younger generation.
In fact, this method can indeed alleviate the emptiness of the national treasury and enable the implementation of the New Deal in the shortest time. A family needs to pay attention to the seven things of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea every day, let alone the country of Dai Viet.
Su Sanlang did not present this method directly to the emperor, which was the greatest respect for Meng Jiuling, so as the prime minister, he would go all out to solidify this matter.
"Shiming, I heard that there is no one in charge of your house?" Meng Jiuling picked up the tea cup and asked.
Su Sanlang lowered his eyes: "Teacher, my student has a son and a daughter."
The implication is that there is no need for someone to manage things. As for Cui Liangxiu, there is no mention at all. Family scandals should not be made public. But he has learned a lesson. Being an official in the capital is like walking on thin ice. If there is no one who can advance and retreat together and dare to live and die together, then
It's just someone else's excuse, you don't need it.
Meng Jiulin originally wanted to be a matchmaker, but to be honest, with Su Shiming's talent and reputation as the number one scholar, and the Su family as a shield, his career would be smooth in the future, so it would not be difficult to marry a daughter from a high family.
But Su Shiming refused so tactfully, which might not be the best choice to proceed step by step.
In the morning court, Xiao Qiyu sat on the dragon chair and looked at the ministers below. Several old ministers who dared not go to court due to illness were all appointed to official posts according to the imperial decree, and the vacant seats were left empty. It was easy to say anything else. Minister of the Ministry of Industry
All the seats were vacant, which showed that Xiao Qiyu didn't give any face to anyone.
Li Xunzhong, the Minister of Rites, said nothing and looked at Su Shiming standing next to Meng Jiuling from the corner of his eye.
The champion scholar has been in Huizhou Prefecture for a year, and now he must occupy a prominent position in the imperial court. Where will he be placed?
"It is proposed that Su Shiming, the number one scholar in the new science field, be appointed as Minister of the Ministry of Industry." Xiao Qiyu said calmly.
The ministers were in an uproar, but when Xiao Qiyu raised his eyes to look at the crowd, they fell silent.
Xiao Qiyu's eyes fell on Meng Jiuling and said: "Can you raise any objection?"
No one stood up. Meng Jiulin came out and knelt on the ground: "My emperor is wise, and Su Shiming is an unparalleled talent. I have a memorial in my hand. It was Su Shiming who put forward the idea and I drafted it after discussing with him.
Please take a look at it, Your Majesty."
Xiao Qiyu nodded slightly, and the attendant Meng Jiulin in front of the palace took the memorial from his hands and sent it to the dragon case.
Lin Xunzhong lowered his eyes. The situation in the court was now clear. Although the little emperor covering the sky with one hand seemed domineering, if he thought about it carefully, he could see the clues. This step must have been prepared for a long time, including Su Shikang's original refusal.
The rewards given by the late emperor were all prepared for today. These people should be the right-hand men left by the late emperor to the new emperor.
Opening the memorial, Xiao Qiyu read it with displeasure. After reading it, he understood that this method must have been written by grandma. He put it aside: "The prime minister's death is a top priority. After the dissolution of the dynasty, the six ministries and the cabinet
The ministers went to the imperial study room to discuss matters."
"My lord, I obey the order." Meng Jiulin stood up and returned to his seat.
The attendant raised his voice: "If there is something to do, we will start to play, if there is nothing to do, we will retreat!"
No one came out to speak, so Xiao Qiyu stood up and left the Jinluan Hall.
Su Shilang had been standing for a long time. At this moment, a Jingua warrior came in with a wheelchair and asked Su Shikang to sit down. Liu Bu followed Meng Jiulin to the imperial study.
Among the veterans of the previous dynasty, in addition to Meng Jiulin, who was the prime minister and the head of the hundred officials, there were four Tuogu ministers, Yi Yanfu, Nine Kings Xiao Ce, He Yugui and Yang Bangmo.
Among them, He Yugui and Yang Bangmo were die-hard loyalists of Emperor Jiajing. Yang Bangmo was in charge of the army's supplies and could act beyond the six ministries. He had a whip in his hand to beat the king unconscious and beat the sycophants. He Yugui had a good plan, but this plan
This is not a strategy for marching and fighting, but the affairs of a country are always in his heart.
Except for Yi Yanfu, Xiao Ce did not go to court.
Nowadays, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War are both in the hands of the Su family, but anyone with any brains can clearly see that the country of Dai Viet is in the hands of the fourteen-year-old new king.
Among the six ministries, the one with the least actual power was the Ministry of Rites. As the Minister of Rites, Lin Xunzhong was a suitable person for this position in the eyes of Emperor Jiajing. He had neither merit nor fault. He did things thoughtfully and properly and did not form selfish factions.
Of course, as the father-in-law of the Nine Kings, Lin Xunzhong's golden mean is exactly the most suitable. Emperor Jiajing does not care about Lin Xunzhong, but the Nine Princes Xiao Ce is the one who cares about the Nine Kings. The extremely intelligent Nine Kings
Assisting Xiao Qiyu is a move to restrain the Jiang family.
In the imperial study room, after Xiao Qiyu circulated Meng Jiuling's memorial to everyone, Xiao Ce couldn't help but look at Su Shiming.
He has seen too much of the Su family's abilities, but Xiao Ce discovered that the Su family has that kind of ability that you can never see through!
There has never been a person who has been an official for generations, but he can always give people an enlightenment on the strategy of governing the country.
Apart from anything else, once the bank affairs are completed, for the Dai Viet Kingdom, it is quite like hitting them with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches.
"Everyone, please tell me your thoughts." Xiao Qiyu sat on the dragon chair and looked at the people in front of him at leisure. Among the six departments, in addition to Lin Xunzhong, there were also Feng Qirui, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Wei Chang'an, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and
Lu Ning, the Minister of Rites, were all the first to stand by Xiao Qiyu, so they contributed to the overall stability.
Wei Chang'an, the Minister of Household Affairs, walked to the emperor and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, this is a great plan to replenish the national treasury. If it works, it will solve an urgent need. But are those big investors really willing to put their money in the bank?"
This is indeed a problem. Dai Viet is a relatively poor country, but there are also many rich people.
Xiao Qiyu nodded slightly.
Wei Chang'an added: "The New Deal will re-measure the land and divide the large households into small households. I'm afraid those big households will hold grudges in their hearts. If we can make them willing to give out money, can we relax a little more on the fields and slowly figure it out?
"
Xiao Qiyu looked at Su Shiming: "Father, what do you think?"
Everyone trembled at the word Yafu, including Su Shiming himself.
Xiao Ce looked at Su Shiming, raised the corners of his lips, and was speechless.
"I think that the bank is a small matter, and the six ministries should work together to let the people of Vietnam know that this move is to benefit the people before benefiting the country." Su Shiming knelt in front of the emperor and had just finished speaking.
Xiao Qiyu leaned lazily on the soft pillow: "You don't have to kneel back and forth when you come to the imperial study. Those are common etiquette. If you come, please give me a seat."
Su Shiming sighed in his heart, such a blatant preference is inappropriate!
"How do the six departments coordinate?" Xiao Qiyu looked at Su Shiming: "My father said slowly, there is no rush today, let's discuss this matter."
Su Silang lowered his eyes to hide his emotions, listening to Su Shiming talk about the strategy of governing the country, and then raised his head when he heard Su Shiming mentioned the Ministry of War...
