Chapter 253 1.253 Defense Works
East Palace South Study Room.
A dull atmosphere spread among the officials.
Looking at His Highness the Crown Prince who was sitting behind the desk, looking down at the booklets, all the ministers looked at me and I looked at you, and they didn't want to be the first bird to open their mouths.
"I heard that you are very lively recently. The memorials on the impeachment of Gu have been sent to the Queen Mother a lot!" The prince flipped through the booklet and glanced at everyone.
Zhao Sheng, Marquis of Anding, stood outside the crowd, looking up to the sky with a haughty expression on his face, without saying a word.
Behind Marquis Anding, of course, a group of princelings headed by him stared at the colleagues around them one by one.
Let you laugh and let you dance, hum!
Jiajinghou Xu Pingyong stood beside Zhao Sheng, subconsciously wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
"Zhao Yushi and Huang Yushi, I heard that the two of you have sent eighteen impeachment transcripts to the Queen Mother in the past few days! The speech officials headed by you have really worked hard." The prince threw a pen and said coldly. He asked in a low voice, "How can Gu thank you all?"
"Your Highness, calm down." A group of courtiers knelt down and saluted tremblingly.
Zhao Yushi was nearly seventy years old, with gray temples, knelt in front of the desk with his back straight, raised his head and saluted, "His Royal Highness put down a bunch of state affairs and left Beijing for so many days without saying a word. The old minister really initiated a joint name and invited many The official impeached His Highness. If His Highness wants to blame, the old minister is willing to bear it all, and he will be beaten and punished. Even if the old minister is asked to leave Beijing immediately, the old minister has to say. His Highness’s behavior is indeed inappropriate! The king went to Hongshan to serve the people Pray for blessings, and entrust the state affairs to His Highness, how can His Highness act arbitrarily and disregard state affairs."
The prince stared at the old man for a while, then snorted.
The old officials who had a good relationship with Zhao Yushi were all sweating for the old man.
The prince looked gentle and kind on the surface, but in fact he acted very perversely, and it was very likely that he dealt with the old man secretly.
The king's favorite concubine dares to attack, let alone an old man.
"Give them a look." Unexpectedly, the prince did not get angry, but dropped a cold and calm sentence.
Xiao Xizi immediately stepped forward and handed out a checklist and a construction plan.
A group of courtiers passed it on to read it, and everyone immediately showed surprise on their faces.
"It turned out that His Highness took people there immediately after receiving the news that a large number of supplies appeared in Qinghe Town!"
"The soldiers from the southern battalion sent by His Royal Highness will be able to deliver the food and supplies back tomorrow." Everyone looked happy, but they also looked at each other. After carefully looking at the blueprint, they all became more and more ashamed.
"I have seen the city defense construction of Xijiu City. I plan to build large-scale fortifications in the major cities on this basis, and expand outward with the capital as the center. This process should take several years, but once It is definitely a matter of benefit to the people and the country..." The prince said lightly, and everyone gathered around the construction plan and rushed to circulate it.
After a while, all the courtiers hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty, especially the old courtiers who had impeached the prince countless times were even more ashamed.
It turned out that the prince came out of Beijing to do important things. See, the food was brought back without making any noise. After inspecting the city defense construction of Xijiu City, he also had a plan for the future defense of Mexico in the next few years.
"The minister is ashamed."
The crown prince's phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and he glanced coldly at a group of courtiers, "Get up. I hope that you will think carefully before doing anything in the future. Don't get too overwhelmed and use it for nothing."
"It's the minister who is confused..." Zhao Yushi was about to kneel down to plead guilty, but the prince had already waved his hand to him.
Zhao Yushi was about to speak with a face full of shame, when suddenly a loud noise spread across half of Guanlan City.
Mo Lian slightly hooked the corners of her lips and smiled.
