In the deep palace, Xiao Cheng opened his eyes, and the golden finger panel appeared.
Today is the card drawing day once a month. The first thing I do when I wake up is to sign in for the drawing.
With a thought, a huge turntable appeared in Xiao Cheng's sight. The wheel continued to rotate, shining with various colors of light. After a moment, a white light suddenly flew out and condensed into a card.
[White training card, Fang Jijia
Card effect: After using it, you will get Ji Huan and Qin He.

Xiao Cheng subconsciously hugged the fragrant and soft jade body with plump tentacles in his arms, and then looked at the training card, which introduced Qin He's claim that "six evils cause disease", and felt a little offended for no reason.
.
Tsk, I have worked hard all these days and can’t I just enjoy it?
Xiao Cheng couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and then he gently released Yang Yuhuan, who was still sleeping soundly with a tired face on his arms, and quietly got up.
Hearing the small noise coming from the palace, Feng Bao, who had been waiting outside the palace for a long time, immediately led a group of eunuchs and maids into the palace to help Xiao Cheng wash and change clothes.
Xiao Cheng pressed his hands slightly to ask them to move more gently.
Seeing this, all the eunuchs and maids quickly bowed and their hands and feet moved more gently.
At this time, the sun has just risen outside and it is still early.
But even the emperor had to get up early to go to work on the day of the court meeting!
Nowadays, the entire Yun Kingdom has undergone tremendous changes in just a few months. There are many things that must be handled by Xiao Cheng personally, and court meetings are naturally indispensable.
In front of the Xuanzheng Hall, whips were fired three times, and hundreds of officials lined up and walked slowly into the Xuanzheng Hall. They bowed three times and kowtowed, shouting "Long Live" in unison. The sound of the mountain shouts was deafening and echoed in the hall.
Xiao Chengduan sat on the dragon chair, received the court etiquette from the officials, and said in a deep voice:
"No gifts, stay on your own terms!"
After all the officials stood up, they immediately went out to report.
"Your Majesty, the war in the southeast is over, and the war in the north is also progressing smoothly, and all the territory has been recovered. The rewards have been drawn up. Please take a look at them!"
Xiao Cheng took the memorial and looked at the more than 700,000 taels of silver quoted above. He nodded without hesitation and said:
"Can."
Hey, I have money now!
Just after he finished speaking, another official came forward to report and said:
"Your Majesty, the war is about to end. In addition to the rewards from the courtiers and generals, there is also the matter of pensions for the wounded and disabled soldiers killed in the battle. I have drawn up a note and asked your Majesty for your approval!"
Xiao Cheng heard this and scanned the note handed over. Well, it's another two to three hundred thousand taels of silver.
His face stiffened slightly and he nodded:
"Yes, Minister Mingzhidu will fully cooperate."
As soon as he finished speaking, Minister Cao came forward and bowed:
"Your Majesty, the counties in the north have suffered from war and need to allocate funds for relief to calm the people. In addition, local officials have been dispatched to resettle the people and draw up household registration lists."
Boy, that's a lot of money again.
The corners of Xiao Cheng's mouth twitched slightly and he asked:
"Well, that should be the case. You, the people, will draft the regulations and report them later."
"yes!"
…
The reports from various officials can actually be summed up in two words.
Make money!
No matter who it is, no matter what the social background is, you can be strong only if you have money in your pocket.
If Xiao Cheng hadn't already arranged for people to inspect Ganye Temple, he really wouldn't have the confidence to agree!
After handling many government affairs and seeing that there was no report from the officials, Xiao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his head and glanced at the officials in the palace, but suddenly frowned and asked:
"Today there are hundreds of officials in the palace, but many of them are not here?"
At today's court meeting, the ranks of hundreds of officials were very loose, and there were huge gaps between them. But even so, they could not fill half of the Xuanzheng Hall. A closer look showed that compared with the previous court meetings, the number of officials in this hall was not as high as before.
Forty percent.
Upon hearing this, Cao Shangshu, the official, immediately stood out of the queue, bowed and said:
"Reporting to your Majesty, among all the officials today, there are indeed many who have asked for leave."
Xiao Cheng frowned and asked again:
"Ask for leave?"
"yes!"
Hearing this, Xiao Cheng looked around the hall again and sneered:
"At a glance, it seems that the officials standing in the court are all officials of the Shangshutai."
Among the officials, Wen Tiren subconsciously looked around and immediately stepped out and said:
"Your Majesty, all the officials in the Imperial Palace are here and have never been absent."
Xiao Cheng sneered and said:
"Yes, there are also people from your Tingwei Mansion. So it is such a coincidence that the rest of the officials are unable to come because they have something to do today?"
When the official Cao Shangshu heard this, he couldn't help but hesitate for a while, then he said bravely:
"There are also some officials who have submitted letters to resign, either because they are old or suffering from serious illnesses. I originally wanted to report this matter to His Majesty after the court meeting..."
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh angrily and said:
"Resign? OK! I have always liked the beauty of adulthood. If you ask to resign as an official, I will accept it."
Ma Minwen, who had been standing at the front of the hundred officials with a wooden and clay sculpture, heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but stand up, cupped his hands and persuaded:
"Your Majesty, let's discuss this later!"
Ma Minwen has been in high and low officialdom for many years, and his mind is the sharpest.
When he went to court today, he had already noticed something was wrong. After asking Cao Shangshu, the official responsible for managing officials, and knowing that many people had asked for leave and resigned, he suddenly understood.
A few months after Xiao Cheng ascended the throne, he first made a fuss about Wang Xiao's memorial to persuade officials to join him, and then used the rebellion to clean up the court. Yesterday, he even massacred Ganye Temple to shock the officials.
Serving as an official under such an emperor would still make anyone tremble with fear.
But if that's all, I can still tolerate it. After all, not many people are willing to let go of their authority.
But what is most unacceptable to these officials is that under Xiao Cheng's promotion, the power of the court has gradually been taken over by the six Cao Cao of Shangshutai.
It is unbearable for those who are officials to have their rights emptied out. This matter of asking for leave is a way for officials to express their dissatisfaction to Xiao Cheng in a subtle way.
Xiao Cheng ignored Ma Minwen, his face was gloomy, and he said:
"What else is there to discuss? These are the people who want to shame me!"
Ma Minwen secretly scolded these officials who asked for leave and resignation for not being clear-headed. If you come out like this at this time, are you not afraid that His Majesty will find an excuse to arrest you?
"Your Majesty, how can the court function without the help of these officials? Your Majesty, please think twice!" Ma Minwen said urgently.
Nowadays, although the Shangshutai is constantly expanding its scale, it is preparing to fully take over the government in the future.
But after all, time is still short, and it cannot be done by a handful. Removing all these officials from their posts now will only make the Yun Kingdom court fall into a state of semi-paralysis.
When Xiao Cheng heard this, he remained silent for a moment with a livid face. Finally, he calmed down the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice:
"I didn't think about it!"
When Ma Minwen saw this, he felt a little relieved and quickly raised his hands and said:
"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"
Feng Bao on the side glanced at Xiao Cheng slightly, then lowered his head again.
Among the people in the palace, apart from Xiao Cheng, only Feng Baocai knew why these officials dared to jump out at this time and use this method to express their dissatisfaction to Xiao Cheng like death.
Because in this farce in which hundreds of officials took a leave of absence to protest against the emperor, there was no one connected with it.
No, that’s not right either!
It should be that the driving force behind most of the officials who now express their dissatisfaction in this way is actually Dongchang under Feng Bao.
Under the operation of Dongchang's manpower all over the capital, these officials were all stymied by big or small things.
Coupled with Dongchang's secret guidance, officials who were dissatisfied because their rights were weakened all invariably came up with the idea of finding excuses not to go to the court meeting.
Some people even felt that serving as an official under Xiao Cheng would bring harm to the whole family, so they simply submitted their resignations.
In the minds of these officials, they were already troubled by something, and they just took this opportunity to express their dissatisfaction in a subtle way. No matter how good you are, the emperor, you will not argue with them over the matter of taking a leave of absence without evidence!
Xiao Cheng had a cold look on his face and said in a deep voice:
"Many officials in the court frequently asked for leave. Even for today's court meeting, 60% of the officials did not come. From this, you can imagine how lazy and lazy they are on weekdays! Such a trend will not be rectified if it is not rectified
, will inevitably affect the operation of the court."
Ma Minwen was slightly startled and said quickly:
"I wonder, Your Majesty, what are your plans?"
Xiao Cheng nodded slightly and said:
"I want to set up the 'Examination Law' to rectify the atmosphere in the court. From then on, the officials in the court must set a deadline for completion and record it in a register. Check it every month. If the deadline is not completed, depending on the situation,
Determination, fines, demotion, or, in serious cases, dismissal!"
Xiao Cheng is not someone who can't do anything without Golden Finger. After all, where his horizons lie, he still knows Zhang Juzheng's examination method. Since it is easy to use, there is no harm in giving it a try.
