Chapter 1863
Li Ye silently looked at Liu Mingzhi's respectful attitude under the dragon platform, and for a moment didn't know how to respond to Liu Mingzhi's words.

It can only be said that Liu Mingzhi's words are too seamless and impeccable.

It's not that I don't want to share your majesty's worries, but that I have an extremely embarrassing status and must avoid suspicion.

No matter how you think about Liu Mingzhi's words, there are no loopholes in the slightest, the emperor of Jin, the eldest princess of Jin who will inherit the throne in the future, Turkic Khan, and the prince of Turkic are either Liu Mingzhi's relatives or friends, or Liu Mingzhi's friends.

Under such an identity, Liu Mingzhi really shouldn't read carefully the detailed plan of the courtiers' Northern Expedition.

Li Ye was slightly lost in thought, and there was an inexplicable look in his eyes.

Putting down the memorial in his hand with a resentful expression: "Forget it, since my uncle needs to avoid suspicion, I won't force the pressure on my uncle.

Uncle return to his place. "

"The old minister complies with the order, thank you for your generosity."

Liu Mingzhi returned to his position respectfully again, knelt there and fiddled with the jade wat in his hand like a normal person, as if he was studying the patterns on the jade wat.

All the officials looked at Young Master Liu's back with different thoughts, and their thoughts were flying.

With Liu Mingzhi's calm appearance, they couldn't figure out whether it was because of the generals at all levels on the expedition roster, or whether he really wanted to avoid suspicion as he told His Majesty.

Like Li Ye, Baiguan also couldn't figure out what Liu Mingzhi's real thoughts were at the moment.

But they thought carefully about Liu Mingzhi's previous words.

Indeed, if the King of Side-by-Shoulders had read the expedition plan on the memorial, it would be fine if the Dalong ruled the world smoothly, but if something went wrong, someone would surely turn their attention to the King of Side-Shoulders.

The reasons are nothing more than what Liu Mingzhi said.

The relationship and the situation are too embarrassing.

Hubu Shangshu Jiang Yuanming glanced at Liu Mingzhi's gloomy face with the jade wat pattern on it, smiled wryly and shook his head.

Judging from his understanding of dealing with Young Master Liu for many years, Young Master Liu obviously has a grudge in his heart because of the order of the generals on the expedition list.

"Your Majesty, old minister Jiang Yuanming has a book to play."

"allow!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lao Jiang took out the memorial from his cuffs and walked towards the center of the hall, and slowly opened the memorial in his hand.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, since the beginning of drawing up the plan for the Northern Expedition a month ago, the veteran, in the name of the Ministry of Households, has collected grain and grass from the state capitals of Dalong.

Now, the state governments in various places have responded one after another, and they have prepared enough grain and grass to be transported to northern Xinjiang. In addition to the state treasury's grain and grass reserves, five months of grain and grass have been prepared.

After the follow-up spring tax on food and grass, it will be sent to the North Expedition camp one after another, and it will definitely not delay the great cause of the Northern Expedition of our million-strong army. "

Li Ye's silent expression finally revealed some smiles after listening to Lao Jiang's words: "Okay, Lao Aiqing is worthy of being the pillar of the imperial court, and he has confiscated the grain and grass of a million-strong army for nearly half a year in less than a month, which can be described as hard work.

When the world is settled and the army is returning to court, I will definitely reward you heavily. "

"Thank you, Your Majesty, this is the duty of the old officials, and the old officials dare not take credit for it. The amount of food and grass in the state capitals in various places is on the memorial, please take a look at it, Your Majesty!"

"Bring it up!"

"We obey the order!"

Xiao Dezi took the memorial from Lao Jiang's hand, and Lao Jiang returned it.

Li Ye took the memorial and put it aside, he didn't need to go through the details at this time, as long as he knew that he had enough food and grass for about five months, he was satisfied.

"As a minister, who else has a book to play?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, old minister Song Yu has a book to play."

"allow!"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, in order to support the great cause of the Northern Expedition, the Ministry of War will serve as a supervisor, and the Military Construction Department will continue to build the weapons, armor, and arrows used by the Northern Expedition Army.

Now the imperial court is short of merchants from all over the country to provide materials, totaling 110 taels.Your Majesty, please order the Ministry of Accounts to allocate funds to settle this batch of arrears to the shopkeepers of merchants in various places in a timely manner. "

Li Ye frowned, and there was a faint tangled look between his brows.

Before the war started, the cost of repairing various weapons by the soldiers of the three armies was already 100 million taels, which was too much.

There is no way, money has been fought in wars since ancient times. For the unification of the world, the consumption of 100 million taels is quite considerable.

Li Ye pondered for a while and looked at Old Jiang: "Jiang Shangshu?"

Lao Jiang, who used to withhold tens of thousands of taels of silver, nodded without hesitation this time.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, even if the old minister sells the iron, he will pay off the silver owed by the court to the merchants who supply the equipment."

Liu Mingzhi, who had been holding the jade wat all the time, heard Lao Jiang's loud words, glanced at Lao Jiang lightly, then withdrew his gaze, and continued to play with the jade wat in his hand.

As he expected.

Now the court has put aside the estrangement from each other, and is preparing for the Northern Expedition of the Great Dragon to rule the world with one heart and one mind.

Today's household department and military department are two bottomless pits for swallowing money, and the whole court is working together to fill these two gold-selling holes.

Li Ye stood up from the dragon chair, looking around at the officials in the hall with piercing eyes.

"My lords, who else has a book to play?"

"The ministers have nothing to play."

Now that the court is surrounding the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households, the two of them are fine, and the rest of the people will naturally not use some trivial matters to grandstanding in the court at this joint.

"As a minister, if I surrender myself to the position of deputy governor of the Northern Expedition Army, I will never interfere with all the military orders of Old Yun Aiqing, and the royal driver will personally collect gold and invade the two countries.

What do all the ministers think? "

All the officials who were waiting for Xiao Dezi to give a speech, and retreated to the court for nothing, were all stunned when they heard Li Ye's sudden inquiry without warning.

He stared dumbfounded at Li Ye who was standing on the dragon platform, but he didn't react for a long time.

Even Liu Mingzhi, who was holding the jade wat, was a little stunned. He glanced at Li Ye on the dragon platform, his eyes dodged for a while, and after thinking for a while, a flash of enlightenment flashed in his eyes.

After a little thought, he understood what Li Ye was doing.

It's nothing more than Liwei.

Li Ye's throne came too suddenly and too easily.

The prestige among the officials is not too heavy.

He wanted to imitate his grandfather, Li Zheng, who ordered 30 troops from Northern Xinjiang to move northward when he was the prince, so as to accumulate his prestige in the hearts of officials with his military achievements.

The idea is certainly good, but you are too underestimating the stubbornness of those sour scholars above the court.

Sure enough, all the officials who came back to their senses looked at each other a few times, and they all spoke out to dissuade them.

"Your Majesty can't, a gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall, let alone the king of a country, how can he easily conquer by himself."

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, the imperial conquests have always been when the country is in ruins. When the country is in shambles, the imperial conquests can boost morale and turn defeat into victory. Now my dragon is prosperous and prosperous, with famous generals gathered and strong soldiers.

How can it be so easy for the imperial driver to conquest in person, Your Majesty think twice. "

"The old minister seconded the proposal, the royal conquest is related to the state, your majesty should put the dragon body as the most important thing, please think twice."

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the old ministers and others can still serve His Majesty like dogs and horses, why should His Majesty personally conscript?"

"."

In an instant, the court, which was united in love and mutual love just now, became as chaotic as the Dongjiefang City, and all the officials spoke all kinds of advice one by one.

The content is almost the same, and they are all the idea of ​​preventing Li Ye's imperial conquest.

Li Ye looked at the officials below who opposed the persuasion one after another, and nodded helplessly.

"My lords."

"My lords."

"Silence! How noisy is it?"

"Chen wait to be found guilty."

Li Ye's eyes were complicated and embarrassed, and he really didn't know how to deal with this set of officials and courtiers who were convicted.

It seems that my idea of ​​wanting to be personally conquered by the royal driver is impossible.

At this moment, Li Ye's heart was full of aggrieved, extremely aggrieved.

But besides the royal conquest, is there any other way to quickly accumulate the prestige of the current emperor?
"It's just an innocuous joke I'm sharing with you ministers, you don't need to take it seriously."

"As soon as the food and grass are in the hands of the army, immediately march north!

Let's retreat! "

"Your Majesty is holy, and I will send you off to Your Majesty, long live long live."

Li Ye looked around at the bowing officials in the hall, flicked his dragon robe lightly, and hurried towards the back of the hall, Xiao Dezi shouted and hurriedly followed.

The sound of footsteps gradually faded away, Liu Mingzhi straightened up, glanced at the officials around him lightly, and rushed out of the hall with a wave of his sleeves.

"Shoulder with the king stay step."

Hearing Wei Yong's shout, Liu Mingzhi turned his head and gave him a displeased look, and walked towards the outside of the hall without stopping. He didn't think he had anything to say to Wei Yong, an old man.

After taking off the Heavenly Sword from the Armor Rack and wearing it around his waist, no one paid any attention to it and rushed towards the palace gate.

"My lord is waiting for me! Is this how my lord treats his colleagues?"

"What exactly is Wei Xiang going to do? I don't know if I can give you any advice?"

Wei Yong glanced at the officials here curiously: "My lord, how about talking while walking?"

Liu Mingzhi nodded helplessly.

"Please!"
