Rebirth of the best emperor

Chapter 2 I want to show respect
Weichen can't do it?
Wang Mang stared at Li Hong and said, "Could it be that even this mere 10 taels, I can't be the master?"

After Wang Mang's words fell, Li Hong pushed the golden mountain and the jade pillar down and knelt down on the ground with a plop. What Wang Mang said could be said to put Li Hong on the fire at once. Macros were incinerated.

Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, Li Hong said tremblingly: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the 10 taels was allocated to the Empress Dowager's palace yesterday, there is no reason why this money will come back just after it was given, and it is slightly I don't even have the guts to ask the Queen Mother for money, Your Majesty must make a clear decision!"

"Bright judgment?" Wang Mang sneered, and said, "What does Li Shangshu think of me as a clear judgment?"

"Uh..." Li Hong was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, Wang Mang's words were really tricky, no matter how Li Hong answered, it seemed to be wrong.

"Lord Li, you are never quick to give money. Why did you give the money to the Empress Dowager's Palace so readily this time?" Fortunately, at this time, Wang Yongji, who had always been at odds with Li Hong, suddenly spoke up, which was regarded as a relief for Li Hong.

"It's really not that I'm quick to give money," Li Hong secretly cast a grateful look at Wang Yongji, and said, "This time I think the money for the garden repair must be given, and the queen mother is pressing, so yesterday Then the money was transferred.”

"The Empress Dowager gives money so happily, but we people don't give money so happily." Wang Yongji said with a chuckle, "Li Shangshu really has double standards!"

"I can't help it!" Li Hong often sighed, turned his head to look at Wang Mang and said, "Your Majesty, I have committed a crime, please forgive me!"

"What's wrong with you?" Wang Mang looked at Li Hong, and said, "You tell me what's wrong with you?"

"Minister..." Li Hong scolded his mother secretly, wondering what kind of gunpowder did His Majesty take today, and why he always went with him, his so-called "guilty" was just to be polite, how could the emperor really climb up the pole? He came to inquire about the crime, not to mention that Li Hong really didn't think he was guilty.

"Forget it, I don't have the same knowledge as you." Wang Mang snorted coldly: "I won't care too much about your affairs, but as the saying goes, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot escape..."

"Your Majesty, I'm not in good health." Li Hong heard Wang Mang's words, and his heart that had just let go of his fright instantly felt like falling into a cold cave. It was icy cold, and it was so easy to escape of it?
"What does it have to do with your body?" Wang Mang watched movies and TV dramas, so he knew that his words had been misunderstood by Li Hong, but Wang Mang still wanted to tease Li Hong.

"Doesn't Your Majesty want to reward the court staff?" Li Hong said cautiously.

"Tingzhang?" Wang Mang pondered for a moment, this is a novel thing, but he wants to try it if he has a chance, Li Hong seems to be very scared.

"Could it be that I'm overthinking it?" Li Hong saw Wang Mang groaning, and couldn't help but gritted his teeth secretly. He really lost his level today, and it can be said that he was led by the nose.

"You think too much." Wang Mang said indifferently: "Does he look like such a violent person?"

"No, no." Li Hong shook his head quickly, and said loudly: "Your Majesty is the king of sages, the king of benevolence and righteousness..."

"You mean that if I give you the imperial staff, I will not be the king of sageness, the king of benevolence and righteousness..."

"Of course not, Your Majesty..."

"Forget it, you don't need to say any more. Of course I know what you think in your heart." Wang Mang interrupted Li Hong's defense, and said: "The so-called life crime is inevitable, but it is simple, and it is just a punishment. That’s all your salary this year!”

"what!"

As soon as Wang Mang finished speaking, Li Hong yelled and fell to the ground with an extremely distorted expression on his face, as if he had suffered a serious injury. Wang Mang was taken aback for a while.

What's going on here?
It's just a little salary, you are a god of wealth, how can you still care about this little money.

Wang Mang was really wrong about this point. Li Hong is indeed the God of Wealth, and he is indeed not short of this salary, but almost everyone in the court knows that Li Hong is really addicted to money. It's hard for Li Hong to take out even a mere penny, that's stingy to the extreme.

Wang Mang fined Li Hong one year's salary, so it can be said that Li Hong could not escape the crime of living.

Li Hong cried and mourned as if he had lost his soul, but the ministers in the court were even more in awe of Wang Mang.

Our majesty is extremely powerful. Today, Li Shangshu is really guilty of living. All the ministers silently mourned for Li Hong, and became extremely jealous of Wang Mang's methods. This majesty is picking everyone up. Here comes the guy's weakness.

Wang Mang originally wanted to make a joke with Li Hong, but he really didn't expect it to have such a profound impact. He really wanted to plant flowers and not bloom, but unintentionally planted willows and willows to make shade.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your gratitude!" It took Li Hong a long time to calm down his emotions, and said, "Your Majesty, this fine is accepted by the minister, but the money..."

"You don't have to worry about money." Wang Mang shook his head and said, "I will handle this matter myself, and discuss it with the Queen Mother. I believe the Queen Mother must understand the righteousness."

"Your Majesty can't..." Zhao Xin, Minister of Rites, suddenly said.

"What's Zhao Shangshu's opinion?" Wang Mang said with some displeasure: "Could it be that Zhao Shangshu can make up for the missing 10 taels of silver."

"Chen..." Zhao Xin held back the words that came to his lips, and said, "I just hope that Your Majesty will think twice."

"There's nothing to think twice about." Wang Mang said coldly, "If you have a way, do I need to go to the Queen Mother to ask for this little money? I've lost all of your face."

"Your servant will die!" Hearing what Wang Mang said, all the ministers knelt down on the ground, shouting again and again, expressing their sincerity.

Wang Mang twitched his cheeks, and said: "Get up, everyone, if you can change the money, it will be fine if you can't change it, what's the use if you can't change it, well, what else do you have? .”

Deng Fang, who was standing beside Wang Mang, was stunned. Why did His Majesty rob him of his job? Could it be that he didn't like his eyes, or that he accidentally said the wrong thing?Are you about to lose your job?
All the ministers also looked at me and you, confused, but they could hear the impatience in the emperor's mouth, so they all winked to express that nothing happened.

"Retreat!"

Deng Fang looked at the ministers and said they were all fine, and roared impatiently, then helped Wang Mang up with great respect, and walked out of the hall, but Wang Mang seemed to dislike him especially today, so he walked a little too fast.

"Your Majesty, please go slowly!" Deng Fang reminded in a low voice, feeling the vague gazes from all around.

Slow down, sister!Wang Mang thought to himself, he quickened his pace until he exited the hall, then he covered his lower abdomen, looked at Deng Fang with a distorted expression, and said, "I want to show respect."
