Does your husband only love his wife?I turned around and left the house to marry a villain
Chapter 641 Supervisory Commissioner
A group of people walked towards Guanming Tower in a mighty procession. The man in the lead was wearing a dark brocade robe, a jade crown on his head, and had handsome features. It was Gu Changning.
He went up to the second floor of Guanming Building, came to Xie Jinyun, put out his hand to support Xie Jinyun's body, and pushed Xie Jinyun back into the chair.
At this time, everyone saw that the distinguished guest sitting on the second floor of Guanming Tower was actually the Queen.
They did not know that the Emperor and Empress would attend today's debate. They only knew that every word they said in the Xie Mansion Theater would be reported to the palace.
Everyone in the garden turned around, facing the Guanming Tower, and saluted to the people above, saying, "Greetings to the Emperor, and to the Empress."
The sound of everyone saluting echoed throughout the Xie family's garden.
This is the first time that things have been so lively since the incident at the Xie family.
When everyone knelt down to pay their respects, the head of the Ge family was finally let into the Xie family's garden. He came to the theater, knelt on the ground and said to Gu Changning and Xie Jinyun: "Your Majesty, Empress, please follow the teachings of your ancestors and let the Empress take good care of the harem."
Gu Changning glanced at the head of the Ge family who was kneeling in front of the crowd, narrowed his eyes, took Xie Jinyun's hand and said, "I don't want to hear you say it, I want to hear what the man standing on the stage says."
He Yuanzhou subconsciously looked at his companions on both sides.
After his companions carefully raised their heads to glance at Guanming Tower, they whispered to He Yuanzhou, "The Emperor is referring to you."
When He Yuanzhou heard this, he immediately stood up, bowed with both hands, and said, "I, He Yuanzhou, pay my respects to the emperor."
He immediately introduced his name to Gu Changning in order to win the emperor's favor and become a new noble of the new emperor, so as to obtain an official position and serve the new emperor. After all, the court was in need of people, and Gu Changning was also privately recruiting talented people. He Yuanzhou felt that he was not bad.
Gu Changning saw through He Yuanzhou's thoughts and frowned slightly, saying, "I know who you are."
He Yuanzhou was secretly delighted, but he didn't show it on his face. He just showed more respect to Gu Changning and said without missing a single word: "I am grateful for your grace."
Gu Changning snorted with disdain, but only people around him could see the disdain.
He got straight to the point and said, "You don't agree with my queen doing this or that?"
He Yuanzhou was slightly stunned. He did not expect the emperor to ask so bluntly, but he still answered fluently: "Your Majesty, I advocate that men should be in charge of external affairs and women should be in charge of internal affairs. Women and children have their own missions, and as the mother of a country, I also have my own mission."
Gu Changning looked back at Xie Jinyun and held her hand tighter: "What is the Queen's mission?"
When it comes to the "mission of the queen", He Yuanzhou is like a cock in a cockfighting arena, and he replied with great vigor: "First, for the sake of the emperor's offspring, the queen should take good care of her pregnancy in the palace and should not worry about other things. Second, the position of concubines in the harem is vacant, and the queen is the only woman, not even a concubine. The queen should select a few noble ladies with both good character and appearance for the emperor to serve him and expand the royal family."
He Yuanzhou became more and more excited as he spoke, not taking Gu Jiangyu's words from the debate to heart at all, and insisted on sticking to his own opinion.
Gu Changning could see that He Yuanzhou was an arrogant, selfish and sinister villain. If a woman married such a man, she would be unlucky for the rest of her life.
He glanced at He Yuanzhou coldly and asked, "The debate between you and Miss Gu just now was very interesting. Do you have a more convincing rebuttal to the last few words Miss Gu said?"
When He Yuanzhou heard this, he immediately thought carefully about what Gu Jiangyu had just said.
Gu Jiangyu also kindly repeated what he had just said, saying, "There is a war going on in Xiguan, and the people's taxes must be paid to the soldiers on the front line first. Did you know that Xie's shop donated a lot of supplies to the front line?"
In fact, even if Gu Jiangyu did not repeat these words, they still remembered what Gu Jiangyu had just said. But when Gu Jiangyu repeated these words in public, the meaning was different.
This undoubtedly stripped them of their clothes in public, leaving them standing naked in front of everyone, with no way out.
He Yuanzhou also knew that the eldest daughter of the King of Xiping had a quarrel with her today. He Yuanzhou replied: "Your Majesty, Xie's shop was able to donate supplies to the frontline soldiers at the first time, which is a heroic act. When the country is in trouble, every citizen has a duty. I am also concerned about the war in Xiguan and am always ready to serve the country. As long as Your Majesty can use me, I will not hesitate to die."
"Good." Gu Changning raised his hands and applauded He Yuanzhou's speech.
When He Yuanzhou heard the applause, the oppression and tension in his heart gradually dissipated.
However, before He Yuanzhou could be happy for too long, Gu Changning asked again: "Then tell me, if I use you, how will you solve the problem of the empty treasury and the resettlement of nearly 100,000 people in Xiguan."
He Yuanzhou was slightly stunned, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "Your Majesty, to solve the problem of an empty treasury, we must first rectify the bureaucratic corruption, the treacherous officials who control the government, the private parties, the cliques, and the factions, cultivate new nobles, establish an upright style in the court, and investigate those who have harmed the people and protected each other."
"Now that the country is in crisis, it is time to spend money. The taxes on the people can be raised again to overcome the current crisis and ensure that the soldiers on the front line have clothes to wear, food to eat, and sufficient food and fodder."
"Your Majesty can also introduce a policy of donating money to get an official position, encouraging merchants to donate half of their property in exchange for an official position. Some merchants want their children to enter the government, but they have no way to do so. Your Majesty can take this opportunity to open up a few official positions. The more you donate, the higher the official position you can get."
"In this way, we can temporarily solve the urgent problem at hand."
After He Yuanzhou finished his convincing speech, many noble families and officials immediately looked up at He Yuanzhou.
The eyes those officials looked at He Yuanzhou were like a cold arrow, full of hostility.
This ignorant boy really doesn't take officials from aristocratic families seriously. He even dares to bring up the issue of buying official positions with money.
Of course, it is not impossible to buy an official position with money, but everyone does it secretly.
But most of those who paid money to buy official positions were idle young sons of royal nobles, not just any cabbage on the street.
What does He Yuanzhou think of the court?
Is that the vegetable market in front of his house?
"Ignorance, ridiculous." The head of the Ge family retorted He Yuanzhou angrily.
He Yuanzhou said: "Master Ge, if you have any opinions, you can raise them. Previously, I only represented my personal opinion."
At this point, He Yuanzhou raised his hand and bowed to Gu Changning: "Your Majesty, this is my plan to solve the current national crisis. I hope Your Majesty can listen to it."
"Your Majesty, you must not listen to the advice of this ignorant scholar, otherwise there will be chaos in the court." The head of the Ge family was anxious.
The noble families and officials following behind him also became anxious.
However, Gu Changning felt that although He Yuanzhou was arrogant, he had some talent and was a good sword.
"I think Yuan Zhou said something very good."
When Gu Changning said this, all the officials under him felt their scalps tingling.
Your Majesty, you can't do this again!
"Rectify the bureaucratic corruption, the treacherous officials who control the government, the private parties, and the gangs." Gu Changning's eyes had a faint smile, and he looked at He Yuanzhou: "He Yuanzhou, I appoint you as the Supervisory Commissioner and hand over this important task to you."
He Yuanzhou's body shook violently...
He must have heard it right! (End of this chapter)
