Appoint me as a spy, but the contact person is actually the empress

Chapter 55 The Empress' Means, Civil and Military Silence, No Way Out

"Your Majesty, I think this matter is a little inappropriate. Of course, the Ministry of Punishment needs assistance. As far as I know, most of the eunuchs are illiterate."

"Such cooperation may backfire."

"Secondly, wouldn't it be a joke if this group of eunuchs were to help? There is no dynasty in the world that would use eunuchs. Although the Great Wei is a little weak now, the scholars are not dead yet."

"If the Ministry of Punishment really doesn't have enough people, you can select a group from among the scholars."

Yang Ning opened his mouth and let the eunuch take power, isn't this a joke?Especially with so many important departments being meddled by eunuchs, who wants to?

What Yang Ning said was not only for himself, but also for all the officials in the court, but now the two parties are fighting for the matter of turning rice into mulberry, so they don't speak up.

However, all the officials were silent, but they were deeply shocked in their hearts. Under such a struggle between the two parties, the empress actually wanted to cultivate a force of her own.

This is really smart.

To be honest, this kind of method is definitely not something that a new emperor can do. There must be someone instigated behind it, and they can't think of who this instigator is.

Liu Yanming, Yang Ning, Li Jie and others quickly found out who it was.

Yao Guangyun is known as a genius in the world.

He is the only one who understands court struggles so well, and this is how imperial power slowly emerges.

It's a pity that Jiang Ling is still too young, she shouldn't bring up this matter at this time, if the emperor is more mature, he should raise this matter when the two princes actually enter the arena.

Because this is called a swap.

It is equivalent to the prince who has benefited, giving up part of the benefits so that the empress can get her benefits, and the prince will also get his own benefits, so that the matter can be handled smoothly.

If you want to take advantage of the fire and reap the benefits of the fisherman, you need absolute strength, which Jiang Ling obviously does not have.

In the face of Yang Ning's words, Jiang Ling seemed to have been prepared on the dragon chair. Xu Shouyun said before that after raising this matter, he would use the purpose of the three parties to play a game.

She clearly knew that if this matter was to be handled smoothly, she could wait until King Qin and King Yan had completely entered the game, and then she would come out to make an equal exchange.

But she didn't do that. The deal with King Qin and King Yan was not to set up the East Factory, but for the key thing Xu Shouyun said.

food!

This is the most critical thing. Whether the transformation of rice into mulberry can be successfully completed, regardless of the struggle, the biggest core point is food.

As long as there is sufficient food, even if the rice is forcibly changed to mulberry, then this matter is a good thing.

When the mulberry fields are planted, as long as the common people have enough food and earn money, they will roll up, like snowballs, and roll into a huge snowball bit by bit.

This is the ultimate goal.

If there is a shortage of food at a critical moment, even if the rice is successfully converted into mulberry, the people will have a lot of mulberry leaves on hand, so what if they can produce a lot of silk?

Grain is sold for dozens of taels of silver and a stone, but it is not a wedding dress for others, and civil uprisings are more likely to occur.

You don't need to wear clothes, you don't need to earn money, but keeping the people hungry is the most important thing in the world.

After thinking about this, Jiang Ling's voice sounded immediately.

"What Ai Qing said is very true."

"In that case, since Aiqing has such opinions, who does Aiqing Quan think is the most suitable for this site selection?"

When the Great Wei Empress said this, Yang Ning was taken aback.

The topic I was discussing was about eunuchs exercising power, why are you arguing with me about the right to choose a site?
Who doesn't know that this is a hot potato, I just want to sit back and enjoy the benefits, and wait to see the fate of Liu Dang. If you asked me before, I would definitely choose Li Dang.

Now that the two princes are on stage, you want me to come forward to make trouble?Are you sick or am I sick?

Yang Ning was silent.

Yang Ning was Liu Yanming's enemy before, but with the joining of Li Dang, he became a neutral faction instead, and he could stand by and watch the two families fight each other.

Because no matter who fights, he can make Liu Yanming unlucky, so he can achieve his goal without any effort, which is called winning in political struggles.

Now that King Qin and King Yan are coming forward, King Ning will not talk about it. This guy is a bit weird, and it is impossible to expect him to really enter the arena.

But even so, Yang Ning didn't want to offend King Qin and King Yan. If they were really offended, even if Liu Yanming fell, it wouldn't be his turn.

It's not that the superiors don't allow everyone to fight among themselves, but that they must fight within the rules and not hurt the superiors. This is the meaning of the struggle.

If it gets involved, for any purpose, then you're damned.

For a moment, Yang Ning shook his head: "Your Majesty, it is difficult for me to decide on this matter, and it is up to Your Majesty to decide."

Not to mention the matter of determining the right to choose the site, in the whole world, only the Great Wei Empress is the most suitable. She is the emperor and bears the consequences and responsibilities of everything.

In addition, the emperor itself is a separate force, whether it is the king of Qin, the king of Yan, civil servants and military generals, in a sense, everyone is in a hostile relationship.

As the environment changes, it can be a friend or an enemy. If anyone takes the initiative to help Jiang Ling choose, then this person is not far from death.

"It's hard for you to decide on such a big right to choose a site."

"When I set up Dongchang, Aiqing can explain the big truth clearly and logically."

"It's really ridiculous."

The Empress's voice was a little cold, Yang Ning bowed her head instantly, and bowed to Jiang Ling: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty, I just offered some opinions."

For a moment, Yang Ning was a little depressed. He didn't want to stand up and speak out just now. If his own interests were not involved, he would never have come out, and Liu Yanming was all to blame.

"None of the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty had any opinions, but Yang Aiqing had such opinions. This proves that Yang Aiqing is talented and a pillar of the country."

"Since the East Factory is not set up, and you give so many reasons, then the right to choose the site will be handed over to you, so that the court will not quarrel all day long and delay other state affairs."

The empress immediately started playing rogue.

Either you join in and become the target of public criticism, or you just shut up, choose one of the two, and don't talk too much.

As soon as this move was made, Yang Ning's expression turned ugly.

All of a sudden, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty quieted down.

Liu Yanming really wanted to say a few words, but he knew clearly that now the empress was using the modified rice as a bargaining chip, if he objected, then this matter would be even more troublesome.

As for Li Jie and other officials, all of them looked indifferent, and Li Jie might still be a little hesitant. The officials under Li Jie were happy to hear about it.

They are neutral factions, and they are the third party in the court. They don't have a high sense of existence, and neither of them holds any power.

So for this kind of thing, they don't care at all.

They didn't directly harm their interests, so naturally they didn't care. Liu Yanming was even sure that he or his people would really stand up and say a few words.

This group of people is about to jump out and criticize, not only criticize, but also support the establishment of the East Factory.

This is called, barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes.

Amazing.

Liu Yanming really didn't think about why the empress had such a means, it was so hard to control everyone.

There is no retreat at all.

But even so, Liu Yanming took a deep breath, he still wanted to stand up and say something.
