Chapter 32 Charity Foundation (1)
Chapter 32 Charity Fund (Part 1)
I couldn't help but laugh. Fortunately, at this time, I was not used to drinking tea with the last one. Otherwise, I would choke myself to death? It seems that I will issue an imperial edict in the future. When the emperor drinks tea, it is strictly forbidden for his ministers to tell jokes.
"Fatty Liu." I laughed and scolded, "That's why people are scolding you. Do you think it's saying hello?"
Even Tao Qian, who had always been serious on the surface, couldn't help but laugh, and was not angry about the fact that Liu Zhenming attacked him just now.
"I don't think so." Liu Zhenming said with a serious expression: "I think this is a kind of progress. In the past, a girl saw me, but she didn't even bother to pay attention. Now that she is willing to speak to me, I am already satisfied."
I stood up and sat down again. I couldn't stand it anymore. Having such a minister is simply a shame for me, the extremely handsome and wise emperor. I had to say to Tao Qian awkwardly: "Tao Aiqing, just help Fatty Liu. This is the biggest shame in the history of our Great Wu Dynasty."
"Uh... the old minister has no experience in this area either." Tao Qian said in a surprised look.
"Tao Aiqing is highly respected and enjoys a high reputation in both the government and the country. It would be better for you to come forward and help Fatty Liu become a matchmaker." I smiled faintly and said, "If Fatty Liu continues to do this, I'm afraid he will really become a laughing stock."
"Mr. Tao, as long as you are willing to help me, you will be my reborn parent." Liu Zhenming hugged Tao Qian's thigh and started to cry.
Tao Qian was a little amused and hurriedly helped Liu Zhenming up and said repeatedly: "Mr. Liu, you and I have the same character, and this is absolutely impossible. I promise you."
Then Liu Zhenming got up with his fat tremble, smiled charmingly, "Old Tao, if this matter is done, I, Fatty Liu, set up eighteen tables of thank-you wine for you."
"Mr. Liu, Tao can only do his best. Whether it will succeed depends on your own." Tao Qian was forced to be a matchmaker, and he felt extremely embarrassed. However, because I brought up this matter, it was difficult to refute my affection, so he had to bite the bullet and take on the job.
Liu Zhenming was also quite sensible and immediately began to get closer to Tao Qian. He promised all kinds of benefits after the matter was completed.
Seeing that the boy was starting to go endlessly, I quickly waved my hand to stop him and said, "Okay, okay, there are some things you can go home. I have another thing now, I want to discuss with my two beloved ministers. In addition, Tao Aiqing, please stand aside and listen. You can also give me any suggestions."
"I obey the order." Tao Dongwen stood alone, bent down, looking at listening with a scrupulous look.
I glanced at Liu Zhenming and Tao Qian, sorted out my emotions, and said seriously and slowly: "You are the ministers I trust most and the ministers I rely most on."
"Your Majesty, this is a great honor for me." Tao Qian and Liu Zhenming shouted together: "I must devote all my efforts."
Next, I sorted out the contents of the meeting held in Yangzizhai. Of course, I asked Lan Chuqing to establish a martial arts force in the capital, but I didn't say this, and it could be handled secretly. I also didn't say it either. The product business management of Liu Yingzhu's female surnamed product, either.
After hearing this, Tao Qian and Liu Zhenming closed their eyes and thought carefully. After a while, Liu Zhenming took the lead and said, "Your Majesty, I think this is a good thing, but it is quite difficult to implement it. First, let's talk about the charity troupe you asked the Empress Dowager to issue. This is very beneficial to the poor people and to enhance the royal reputation. But first, where does the funds come from? Of course, if the treasury is full, there is no big problem. It's just that the treasury is empty and there is a lot to be done. If such a huge long-term expenditure is allocated, it may be very difficult."
"Mr. Liu said very much that it is obviously extremely inappropriate to allocate this part from the treasury." Tao Qian also opened his eyes and said seriously.
"What the two beloved ministers said is indeed reasonable." I smiled faintly: "I have no intention of exploiting the treasury. I just want to borrow two million taels from this treasury bond and return it to the treasury in one year."
Liu Zhenming and Tao Qian both breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If this is the case, I will support the emperor. After all, this can also accumulate merits for the Empress Dowager."
Seeing that they all agreed, I said, "What do the two dear ministers have to do with the Queen's Women's Protection Department?"
"This?" Tao Qian and Liu Zhenming both looked embarrassed.
"Pa." I slapped the table hard and said angrily: "Don't hesitate, do you want to say that poor women in the world do not need mercy? You always say that you are doing things for the people. Are women not my people?"
Liu Zhenming and Tao Qian hurriedly knelt down and said in fear: "Don't calm down, I don't mean this."
"Then tell me, what does it mean?" I was still angry.
"I just think that if this plan is to be implemented, it will definitely cause an uproar." Liu Zhenming thought for a while and said: "My Han nationality has always been a man who is inferior to women, and husband is the leader of his wife. If the queen set up the new department, it may cause criticism from the government and the opposition."
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that there are indeed many pitiful women in the world. The old minister is also very sympathetic in his heart." Tao Qian said with a slightly melancholy expression: "It's just that this kind of tyrannical behavior mostly occurs in wealthy and powerful families. If the royal family wants to take care of this matter, it may make these famous families disgusted and cause riots."
After hearing Tao Qian's words, I sat back in the chair and thought about it carefully. As he said, most ordinary poor people's families cannot even eat enough. Cases of abuse of women naturally occur very few. However, those who are truly powerful are the mainstay of this society. This is really difficult to deal with.
"Your Majesty, this matter is not impossible." Tao Qian's words brought me to reality again.
"This matter is not something that can happen overnight. If there is any change, it may take at least a few decades and at most hundreds of years." Tao Qian said lightly: "But the emperor can worry about the poor women in the world, which makes the old minister very pleased. The old minister is willing to support the emperor and the queen."
"I am willing to support the emperor and the empress with my own strength." Liu Zhenming said hurriedly.
"Okay, okay." I said a few good words in a row and said happily: "I have not misread my two beloved ministers."
"However, this matter requires serious discussion." Tao Qian said in a deep slight sense: "Let the old minister go back and think about it for a few more days before reporting to the emperor. However, the name is called the Morning Court, the Empress Dowager's Charity Finance Committee case can be brought to the court for discussion."
I also thought for a moment, then waved my hand and said, "So, then follow Tao Aiqing's suggestion. Liu Aiqing, you can think of a specific plan when you go back."
"I am following the order." Tao Qian and Liu Zhenming said respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Tao Qian bowed and said again.
I said calmly: "Tao Aiqing may say anything directly."
"Since Taishi Li was defeated from the Heavenly Prison, he was deprived of his position as Taishi. However, the responsibility of the Taishi is very important. The old minister begged the emperor to re-activate the retired Prince Shaoshi, the Prince Shaofu in the prison, and the Prince Shaogu who was traveling abroad." Tao Qian said respectfully: "First, these positions cannot be vacant for a long time. Second, they are all the emperor's mentors and can handle many things for the emperor. Third, this can increase the intensity of the emperor's speech."
I thought about it. What Tao Qian said must be the masters of Wu Liang and the former when he was the prince. However, I didn’t know their abilities, and I didn’t know what happened between them. I didn’t know whether they would be loyal to me. I was full of doubts. So I had to say perfunctorily: "Tao Aiqing is right, and I will think about it carefully."
What I call consideration is to send people to find out the truth of them. If they are used together, it doesn’t matter if they are used together. If they are not used together, they will be killed in secret to prevent future troubles.
Tao Qianqing knew that the matter could no longer be discussed, so he with Liu Zhenming and Tao Dongwen left Nanshu and went back to the department to handle the matter.
After they left, I lay on the chair of the Grand Master and shaking for a long time, and then said, "Missary, I will pass on the Jinyiwei Xiao Qi for me."
"Sister obeys the order." The mistress followed my will and hurried out of the Nan Study Room.
After a while, Xiao got up and went to Nan's study room, knelt down and bowed, and stood beside him.
"Xiao Aiqing, I have something to do to you again." I smiled and said calmly.
"It is Xiao Qi's blessing to be able to do things for the emperor." Xiao Qi said with a respectful look.
"Princess Xiuli, please keep an eye on me. You must not mess up this matter." I took a tea ceremony.
Xiao Qi looked serious and said respectfully: "Prince, please rest assured. Even if Xiao Qi sacrifices his life, he will do whatever he wants."
"Very good. I am here today, I want you to do another secret thing." I slowly closed my eyes: "See all the information of the young master, the young master and the young securityman as soon as possible."
"I obey the order." Xiao Qi knelt down heavily.
"Okay, go." I gently shook the Grand Master's chair and said slowly.
Xiao Qi respectfully retreated according to the etiquette.
