The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 438 Duke Anyang actually supported it

In the dining hall, the emperor was having breakfast. He seemed to be in a good mood, with a smile on his lips.

Sun Kui rarely saw the emperor in a good mood during breakfast.

Last night, the emperor didn't go to Concubine Liang. Why was the emperor happy? Did the emperor have a good dream last night?
  I don’t know what the emperor dreamed about last night that made him so happy?
  The emperor was in a good mood and his appetite naturally improved. He ate a little more during breakfast.

Seeing the emperor finishing his breakfast, Sun Kui quickly brought him a cup of tea: "Your Majesty, it's rare to see you have such a good appetite in the morning."

The emperor smiled and said: "I am in a good mood today."

"Your Majesty, is today a good day?" Sun Kui thought about it carefully. Today is not a good day, nor is it a special day.

The emperor did not show off and said with a smile on his face: "Do you think I should be happy to see a good show in court later?"

"Good show, what good show?" Sun Kui didn't react for a while. "

The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you think?"

Sun Kui was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing, and then his face showed a look of watching a show.

"Your Majesty, this is why you are in a good mood." He thought the Emperor had a good dream last night.

The emperor said with a smile: "Today's show is a big one, I have been looking forward to it for a long time."

Sun Kui: "..." Your Majesty, do you particularly like to watch ministers quarreling?

"I hope they won't disappoint me." After drinking tea, seeing that the time was almost up, the emperor stood up without being urged by Sun Kui, put his hands behind his back, whistled in his mouth, and walked briskly towards the Zichen Palace.

Sun Kui also followed the emperor into the Zichen Palace with anticipation.

In the main hall of Zichen Palace, the ministers had already lined up. When they saw the emperor coming, they all saluted him: "See you, your Majesty, long live your Majesty."

"Everyone, get up." The emperor supported his face with his right hand and rested his right elbow on the armrest of the dragon chair. Then, with an interesting expression on his face, he waited for the ministers to put on a good show for him. "I have given you two days of discussion. You should have come to a conclusion now. Let's talk about your opinions."

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, King Jing walked out of the queue. He first saluted the emperor, and then said in a respectful tone, "Father, my son and ministers support the sharing of grain into acres, the return of fire to the public, and the government and gentry to pay the grain together."

When King Dai heard what King Jing said, he said "Sure enough" in his heart, and then cursed King Jing.

He also hurriedly stepped out: "Father, my sons and ministers also support me." He got ahead of the fourth child, which was good.

As soon as King Dai finished his words, King Chu also came out to express his attitude: "Father, my son and ministers also support."

After glancing at King Chu, King Dai said in his heart: The fourth child is indeed supportive.

Then, the King of Wei also came out to express his support for the new policy.

The ministers were very surprised to see that the four princes all agreed to the three new policies. The kings of Chu and Wei agreed, and they were not surprised. But King Jing and King Dai actually agreed, which surprised them!

When Marquis Xuanping saw that King Jing really agreed with the three new policies, he was not surprised, but he was very angry. If King Jing does not agree, there is no need for King Dai to come out to support. In order to please the emperor, King Jing really ignored the interests of his mother's family.

King Jing turned a blind eye to all the looks cast on him. He knew that if he was the first to stand up to support his father's new policy, the ministers would be very surprised, and then they would complain and blame him, but he didn't care. He cares more about what his father thinks of him than what his ministers think of him. Besides, since my father has proposed the implementation of three new policies, it means that this matter has been finalized and no one can change it. It also means that no matter who opposes it, it is useless. In this case, it is better to support the father from the beginning.

The ministers thought that their strong opposition would make their father change his mind and stop implementing the three new policies. Haha, they really think highly of them. They also don’t think about whether their father failed every time he promulgated a new policy? Didn't they resist before? Did they succeed?

As long as it is a policy that benefits the country and the people, my father will never allow anyone to stop it. The three new policies are obviously beneficial to Jiangshan Sheji, so how could my father give up on their implementation because of their opposition.

Rather than contradicting his father and making him unhappy, it would be better to follow his father's lead from the beginning.

"Okay, okay, you are indeed my good son." The emperor laughed and said, "You have not let me down." Seeing that his four sons supported the three new policies, the emperor was not surprised at all.

"Lao Qi is good." The emperor deliberately praised King Jing alone.

King Jing felt happy after being praised.

"Thank you, father, for your compliment."

When King Dai saw that King Jing had gained the emperor's favor again, he felt jealous and angry.

Lao Qi, this flatterer!

The emperor looked at Dai Wang again and said with a smile: "Second brother, you are not bad either."

Unexpectedly, the emperor would praise him. The king was surprised and happy, and immediately said: "Father, the three new policies will benefit the country and the people, and I will definitely support them."

"Okay!" The emperor praised the King of Chu and the King of Wei again, and then he looked at the ministers, "My dear friends, what do you think?"

Ministers looked at me and looked at you, but no one immediately came out to express their position.

At this moment, Anyang Gong suddenly came out. He first addressed the emperor respectfully, and then said in a loud voice: "I support the sharing of land between farmers and farmers, the return of firepower to the public, and the government and gentry receiving food together!"

what?
  Duke Anyang actually supports it? ! Is he crazy?

The ministers all looked at Duke Anyang one after another. Their expressions were very surprised and they couldn't believe what they just heard. Marquis Xuanping looked at Duke Anyang in horror, and was shocked in his heart: Is Duke Anyang crazy? Does he know what he is talking about?

Several other marquises also looked at Duke Anyang in disbelief, wondering if Duke Anyang had been possessed by an evil spirit and actually openly supported the three new policies?
  Duke Anyang ignored the glare on his back and looked extremely calm.

All the ministers, including the four princes, were severely frightened by Duke Anyang's words. Only the emperor on the dragon throne looked as usual, as if he had expected what the Anyang Guild would say.

Anyang Gongfu, also known as the Wang family, is now the head of the capital's family. How can Anyang Gong support the three new policies?

If it had not been in the previous court, other aristocratic families and powerful ministers would have surrounded Duke Anyang at this time and asked him why he betrayed the aristocratic family and supported the three new policies?
  Duke Anyang, an old man, betrayed the family! ! !

The aristocratic families and powerful people never expected that the Anyang Guild would agree to implement the three new policies! For them, this is tantamount to a slap in the face! This stick knocked them dizzy!
  Marquis Wu Ping could not hold back his anger and pointed at Duke Anyang and yelled: "Gong Anyang, you old thief!"

As Marquis Wu Ping cursed Duke Anyang, the scene instantly became chaotic.

The noble families and powerful ministers immediately surrounded Anyang Gong, accusing him of betraying them. At first it was just scolding, then I don't know who made a move, and then they started fighting.

Sun Kui was stunned when he saw this scene.

Are these ministers crazy? This is in the previous court, not in their homes. They will scold and beat them no matter what.

He quickly turned his head to look at the emperor's face, only to see that the emperor was looking at the ministers wrestling with each other below with great interest.

Sun Kui: "..." This must be the good show the emperor said.

The emperor not only watched with great enthusiasm, but also commented: "Wu Pinghou looks tall and powerful, but he is no match for Anyang Gong."

Sun Kui: "..." He just saw a certain adult doing something dirty. How sinister.

Naturally, He Xiang and Taishi Liu did not participate. They stood aside and looked coldly at the fighting ministers.

After a while, Anyang Gong and Wu Pinghou were still beating and scolding them, completely forgetting that they were still in court.

Sun Kui saw the scenes of fighting below becoming more and more... unbearable to watch. He asked the emperor for instructions: "Your Majesty, do you want to stop them?"

"I haven't seen enough yet, let them continue fighting."

Sun Kui: "..." If the fighting continues, some ministers will be left naked.

The emperor watched the excitement for a while, and then asked Sun Kui to remind the fighting ministers that they were currently in court.

The fighting ministers finally realized that they were still attending the morning court, and then their faces turned pale with fright, and they knelt on the ground shaking like sieves.

"How about I build a ring for you and let you fight on it?" The emperor said with a smile, "Whoever wins will be rewarded heavily. What do you think?"

"I deserve death for my crime. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Huh!" The emperor snorted coldly, which frightened the minister kneeling below and his heart trembled violently.

"I don't care about the fight you just had. I'll ask you again what you think." Rather than the drama of fighting and quarreling, the emperor was more looking forward to the drama of the ministers opposing him. "Gong Anyang supports the implementation of three new policies. How about you, Marquis Wuping?"

Marquis Wu Ping had already tidied up his clothes. If the court uniform hadn't been a little rumpled, it would have been impossible to tell that he had just started fighting.

"I don't support it." That old man Anyang Gong betrayed the family, but he would not. "minister……"

He was about to state the reasons for his objection, but was interrupted by the emperor. The emperor asked another person, Marquis Xuanping.

Of course, Marquis Xuanping was not opposed to the implementation of the three new policies. If King Dai objects, Marquis Xuanping will naturally not support it.

The emperor asked one by one that none of these people agreed with the implementation of the three new policies.

The ministers in North Korea and China support the three new policies equally.

"Since the support and opposition are equally divided, then..." At this point, the emperor paused deliberately, which made the opposing ministers' hearts rise instantly.

"Then implement it immediately."

Ministers who agreed: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Opposing ministers: It is indeed so!
  "The emperor thinks twice."

"I have not only thought twice, but also six times and nine times." The emperor said solemnly, "From today on, it is promulgated to implement the system of dividing the land into acres, returning the fire to the public, and the officials and gentry to pay the grain together."

"Your Majesty, you must not do this."

Sun Kui suddenly said loudly: "Retreat!"

After the emperor returned to the imperial study, he waited for the next actions of the ministers who opposed the three new policies.

King Jing: Please tell me to wake up in this world.
