Daqin: After marrying a vegetative princess, I went crazy with joy

Chapter 103 Is It Appropriate To Lick Like This?

The doctors and the people from the six countries stood behind the crowd with their heads down, trying to reduce their sense of existence as much as possible.

At this moment, they finally understood that their role in the court this time was just lambs waiting to be slaughtered on the chopping board.

Seeing that no one said anything, Wang Jian knew it was time to perform by himself.

"Your Majesty, although the old minister has retired from his official position, His Majesty still has to remember and rewarded several fields. Now that the world is in great prosperity, the old minister is willing to offer up the unused land and contribute a meager amount to the construction of Great Qin!"

Feng Quji gritted his teeth and looked at Li Si when he heard Li Si's words.

Listening to Wang Jian's words now, I can only sigh in my heart.

Because of the snow and salt incident before, most of the family property was in vain.

If he offered a few more pieces of land, then his Feng family might have to drink the northwest wind in the future.

A Prime Minister Zuo and an old general have already expressed their views.

The hopes of the courtiers were pinned on him at this time.

Seeing Feng Quji step forward, everyone was secretly delighted.

Who knows, the old-fashioned Feng Xiang is at odds with the innovative Li Xiang, and he will definitely not follow Li Si's wishes.

"Your Majesty, the old minister's fields have already been cultivated by farmers, so it is impossible to..."

Liu Bai on the side listened to his words and sneered in his heart.

With a snort, he looked at Feng Quji.

"Feng Xiang's ability to talk nonsense really opened my eyes... I don't know what you want to deceive the emperor in front of the emperor?"

deceive you?

This pot must not be buckled, otherwise he will be the prime minister to the end.

Looking at Liu Bai seriously with a cold face, Feng Quji said seriously.

"My son-in-law, don't talk nonsense. What the truth says is true. Where can I deceive the king?"

Liu Bai smiled meaningfully, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and held it in front of Feng Quji.

"Feng Xiang looked carefully, this is the painting of your family's field?"

Taking a closer look, Feng Quji almost vomited blood.

Too much deception, simply too much deception!
Not only the land, but even the house under his name is marked on it.

Even whether there are people living in the house is clearly marked.

Fortunately, this is Daqin, otherwise he would be sued for invasion of privacy!

"My son-in-law, the field on this map is indeed owned by my Feng family, but they have already rented it out to farmers, so I'm afraid they have already cultivated it now!"

Liu Bai chuckled, and pointed to the two plots marked with check marks.

"As far as I know, these two lands are not in use."

Feng Quji's heart skipped a beat, he frowned and said.

"My son-in-law, these two pieces of land have owners!"

Liu Bai nodded and turned to Ying Zheng.

"Father, the two pieces of land mentioned by my son, according to the investigation, were bought by Feng Xiang at a low price from the family members of the soldiers who died in battle, and the land deeds have already been handed over to him."

Although the laws of Daqin forbid private buying and selling of land, such things are not uncommon.

The men in the family died in battle, leaving only the orphans and widows who could not survive, so they usually sold the land to officials and officials.

Of course, these are all done in secret.

Now that Liu Bai pointed it out, many people lowered their heads.

Feng Quji glanced at Ying Zheng, and hurriedly excused himself.

"My son-in-law, I didn't go to buy this, but a woman brought four children to the mansion, and I bought it because I thought they were pitiful. Do you want me to watch them starve to death?" ?”

Liu Bai smiled disdainfully and said coldly.

"I went to see these two pieces of land in person. It's about forty or fifty acres. You actually only gave them twenty big bucks. I wonder if this counts as oppressing the people?"

"The lives of the common people are so miserable. As the current prime minister, you don't think about how to improve them, but cut off their last way of life. What is the difference between you and forcing them to death?

"Finally, according to the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty, it is forbidden to buy and sell land privately. Can you ignore the law just because you are the prime minister? Or are you doing this knowingly?"

From oppressing the common people to forcing them to death, and finally buying and selling land privately, the three serious crimes were exported, which scared all the officials to change their faces.

That's pretty much what they've been doing for years.

Especially civil servants, there are really not many clean ones.

At this time, Feng Quji was so frightened that he knelt on the ground on the spot.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is not as the son-in-law said! At that time, I only felt sorry for their mother and child, so I felt compassion..."

Ying Zheng looked at him coldly, but didn't say a word.

Liu Bai chuckled lightly.

"No matter what your reason is, it is always a fact to buy a field privately, right?"

Feng Quji secretly hated, why are you everywhere?
So many people bought land, why are they staring at me?
The salt in the past, the land in the present, and he at this moment completely hated Liu Bai.

However, in front of His Majesty, he kept begging for mercy.

Liu Bai didn't think about killing Feng Quji for a second, not to mention that his father would probably turn a blind eye to this matter.

If there is a thorough investigation, there will be at least half of the civil servants in the court.

"Father, thinking about it, Feng Xiang really felt sorry for the mother and son, so he felt pity. Why don't you confiscate his two fields and use him as an official!"

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, and looked at Feng Quji who was kneeling.

"Feng Quji, what do you think?"

He glanced at Liu Bai unexpectedly, but he didn't expect him to speak for him.

Is this another trick for him?

In any case, this result was a pleasant surprise for him.

Without a trace of hesitation, Feng Qu hurriedly said.

"Return to Your Majesty, I have no objection!"

"Get up!"

"promise!"

Relieved, Feng Quji returned to his position tremblingly.

Seeing him being taken care of by Liu Bai, the hopes in the hearts of the courtiers were completely shattered.

Even Prime Minister Feng was beaten in the hands of the son-in-law, so what kind of trouble can they make?
One by one hurried forward.He kept showing his loyalty to Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, there is still a piece of idle land in my hands, and I am willing to contribute to the construction of Daqin!"

"Your Majesty, there are still two pieces of land in the minister's mansion, and I am willing to contribute to the construction of Daqin!"

"Your Majesty, my minister..."

"Your Majesty, old minister..."

Looking at the group of people standing in the center of the hall, the people from the six countries and the doctors behind were instantly dumbfounded.

You are so conscious, what should we do?
Ying Zheng flicked his sleeves and said loudly.

"I'm so relieved that all the ministers and workers can stand up! With your help, our Great Qin will surely flourish!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his head slightly and looked at Chunyuyue and the others behind him.

Chunyu Yue sighed slightly in his heart.

His Majesty didn't like Confucianism in the first place, and he was offended last time.

If you don't make a statement at this time, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future...

Their great cause has not yet been accomplished, so there is no need to annoy His Majesty over such trivial matters.

Thinking of this, he immediately stood up.

"Your Majesty, there is also a vacant piece of land that you rewarded me at the beginning. I am willing to contribute to the construction of Daqin!"

In a word, not only agreed to donate the field, but also expressed his attitude.

Look, our Confucianism has completely surrendered to the Great Qin now, otherwise, how could we work so hard for the construction of the Great Qin?

But whether Ying Zheng will believe him is another matter.

Seeing that the teacher had already set an example, the doctors behind him stepped forward one by one to express their views.

People from the six countries looked at each other.

The Qi State, who had always been weak, rushed out, fearing that it would be left behind.

"Your Majesty, I also have some land in my hands..."

The others lowered their heads, but their eyes kept glancing at him.

Can I have some backbone?
Daqin destroyed our homeland, is it appropriate for you to lick him like this now?
