Chapter 116

His Majesty the Emperor, wearing a dragon robe and accompanied by Wang Daban, entered the main hall and ascended to the throne.

"Long live my emperor, long live me."

"I love you so much."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the process was completed, the officials began to report. There were a lot of miscellaneous things, the more important of which was the Peach Blossom Flood in the south. It was said that many places were affected by the disaster, and the court needed to allocate food for disaster relief. Then the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue was there.

Crying poor.

The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were as noisy as a vegetable market.

Yang Xuan couldn't help but be confused.

Is this what it looks like this morning?

My morning meetings have never been so messy before.

However, His Majesty the Emperor's majesty was still there. After coughing twice, Wang Daban on the side shouted silence in a longer tone, and the ministers finally calmed down.

"We will discuss the disaster relief issue after the court is over. Is there anything else?"

As soon as the Emperor opened his mouth, someone immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have this memorial."

"speak."

"Yang Xuan, the academic advisor to the cabinet, is young, uneducated and incompetent, and is not qualified to take on the important responsibilities of the cabinet. I would like to request that Yang Xuan be abolished as the academic scholar of the cabinet."

"I second the proposal."

"I second the proposal."

The three imperial censors jointly signed a petition to Yang Xuan, and His Majesty's face suddenly turned dark.

Feeling Yesterday, the Minister of Industry and Commerce consulted Yang Xuan and asked him to come and testify in court. Did he dig a hole? Do you want me to remove Yang Xuan from his post in front of all the civil and military officials?

As he thought, he searched for Yang Xuan in the crowd.

Sure enough, I saw that kid next to Wuyingdian Grand Scholar Yang Wending.

But Yang Xuan, when he clearly heard someone approaching him, his eyes slightly drooped, like an old monk in trance, and turned a deaf ear.

Little did he know that Yang Xuan was thanking the three censors in his heart at this time, and quickly gave himself the title of cabinet bachelor, because he was not willing to work here.

From the previous dynasty to the present, Yang Xuan felt that this was a large company with chaotic management, overstaffed, factions fighting, and low efficiency. If we leave it to future generations, this kind of company would collapse sooner or later.

Working in this kind of company is simply a waste of your time and willpower.

"Yang Xuan."

His Majesty the Emperor began to call names.

"I'm here."

"Three censors, you are ignorant and incompetent, do you have anything to say?"

The end of His Majesty's words was a bit long, and Yang Xuan also understood the meaning in His Majesty's eyes.

You were promoted by me. Now some people say that you are uneducated and incompetent. Not only is it a slap in your face, but they are also saying that I don't know how to recognize people. You can handle them for me.

Although Yang Xuan doesn't want to work here, he doesn't want to be pointed at and scolded for being uneducated and unskilled.

"I have something to say."

"speak."

"I would like to ask some of the royal censors, why are you ignorant and incompetent?"

"Humph." The censor at the time said: "Yang Xuan, a native of Jiangning County, ranked third from the bottom in the township examination three years ago. Isn't this considered ignorant and incompetent? I would like to offer you the method of making salt.

The emperor's granting you the title of middle-ranking official is already a great favor, otherwise, how would a mere merchant have the qualifications to join the cabinet?"

"Does this gentleman mean that if you don't read the books of sages, you are ignorant and incompetent?"

"That's natural. There are many civil and military officials in the dynasty who are not familiar with the books of sages. If not, how would they stand in this court?"

The Great Sheng Dynasty was peaceful for more than two hundred years, and now he is a military commander who has more or less studied the books of sages. This censor is still quite good.

But in Yang Xuan's view, this level is vulnerable.

"Then I would like to ask, does the sage's book teach people how to fill their stomachs? Does the sage's book teach people how to earn silver?"

"Hmph, the books of sages are intended to educate all peoples. You are a businessman who only knows how to make money, and your body is full of copper odor. The stench is indescribable."

Yang Xuan curled his lips. Although this troll was very eloquent, he had already fallen into his own trap step by step.

"Earning money means you are full of copper odor? I would like to ask everyone here, is there any family that does not need money?"

Yang Xuan said, walked up to the censor, pointed at his nose and asked: "Without silver, where did the jade pendant hanging around your waist come from? Without silver, where did the servants and concubines in your master's house come from?

?I just heard that there is a lack of money for disaster relief due to the flood in the south. I feel that what you have been arguing about just now is all about the smell of copper. No wonder the stench in this hall is so bad."

As he spoke, Yang Xuan stretched out his hand to fan himself in front of his nose, and at the same time took a few steps back, away from the censor.

"you……"

The censor was immediately silenced by Yang Xuan, but another censor came forward again.

"Master Yang, don't change your concepts secretly. The books of sages educate all people, and money is for the national economy and people's livelihood. They should not be compared with each other."

Is this a replacement?

The fighting ability is not good.

Yang Xuan looked at his replaced opponent and sneered and said: "This gentleman is right. If you don't read the books of sages, you don't know how to learn. If you don't have the ability to benefit the people, you don't have skills. If you say I don't learn, I admit it, but you guys,

Aren’t they just incompetent people? Everyone is half a pound to half a pound."

As soon as the censor came up, he was choked up by Yang Xuan's words. He couldn't answer these words. If he continued to speak, he would probably offend the civil and military officials of the court.

The remaining censor probably didn't think of his words for the moment. Under Yang Xuan's gaze, he even took a small step back.

That's it?

Yang Xuan curled his lips in disdain, thinking to himself, I'm only halfway through my combo, and you all kneel down?

This made Yang Xuan a little unhappy. Although his opponent was gone, he still felt good after finishing this combo.

"I come from a humble background and make a living by doing business. I pay taxes and support thousands of people. I dare to ask these three censors who have read the books of sages and sages. How much have they contributed to the country and the people?"

The expressions of the three people changed and they were about to retort, but Yang Xuan continued: "Food is the most important thing for the people. All the people want is just food and clothing. They can't even eat enough. Why are you talking to me about the books of sages? If you have the ability, you can make all people in the world

It would be better for everyone to have books to read, instead of just having verbal disputes here."

Does everyone have books to read?

As soon as these words came out, Yang Wending on the side was suddenly startled, and then fell into deep thought.

Even His Majesty the Emperor's eyes lit up.

However, this is easier said than done. As Yang Xuan said just now, who has the time to read books by sages if their stomachs are not full?

Sure enough, someone jumped out with this talk.

"According to Mr. Yang, if you want everyone to have books and education, then all the people must have food and clothing. May I ask Mr. Yang, is there any way to feed and clothe all the people?"

"May I ask who this lord is?"

Seeing the other party's third-grade court uniform, Yang Xuan knew that he had a serious background.

"I am Qi Song."

"It turns out to be Lord Shangshu." Yang Xuan thought to himself, the real master finally came out.

"Since it comes to the issue of food and clothing, Mr. Qi, as the minister of the Ministry of Industry, can hardly absolve himself from the blame."

Qi Song's eyes widened. It was obviously me who came to trouble you, but why did you complain first?
