The system forced me to be emperor

Xiao Rui thought for a while and said, "Father wants to take advantage of the grain storage to rectify the administration of officials?"

Emperor Xia laughed and said: "This is one of the aspects! There are no longer a few officials in the world who secretly embezzle food reserves. I am the emperor of Daxia. How can I have so much energy to urge the Metropolitan Procuratorate to investigate corrupt officials? If so, then don't Investigation. Now the time is right, taking advantage of Yasukuni’s deterrence to make a decision, just to rectify the administration of officials. On the other hand, in order to make up for the grain reserves, corrupt officials must try their best to make up for the deficit, and the fastest way is to buy from merchants. Seeing the rise in food prices, we will definitely sell the food in our hands. This price increase is due to the pursuit of corrupt officials, not other reasons, so it will not last for a long time, will not cause food prices to continue to be too high, and will not cause large-scale businesses Storing food..."

Xiao Rui's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood His Majesty's plan.

In order to make up for the vacancy of the granary and reduce the crime, the fastest way for corrupt officials to make up for the vacancy of the granary is to replenish the missing grain. Corrupt officials have to exchange the silver they earned from embezzling grain into grain and return it to the court.Merchants can't afford it without profit. They sell the grain in their hands to corrupt officials and exchange it for silver. Merchants who have money promote the development of other businesses.

It is also because this incident was caused by the investigation of corrupt officials, not a natural disaster, nor a war, so it will not cause bad behavior of large-scale storage of grain in the market, and the interests of the people will be guaranteed.

By the way, it can also rectify the administration of officials. The pool of water in the officialdom has never been clear water, and the water can never be cleared, so it is the best way to come to rectify activities for a period of time.

"How's the progress of the matter I asked you to investigate?" Xia Huang asked.

Xiao Rui knew that His Majesty was referring to Yang Feiyuan.

Xiao Rui said: "Reporting to Father, I haven't started to investigate carefully yet."

Emperor Xia nodded and said: "We need to find a few big fish to rectify the administration of officials, so as to form a deterrent so that we can reap a lot of rewards."

"I understand." Xiao Rui smiled. From the beginning, it was not Xiao Rui who wanted to punish Yang Feiyuan, but His Majesty.

After lunch, Xiao Rui went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

After hearing the news, Du Shaonian came out of the government office to greet him, and respectfully invited Xiao Rui to move to the teahouse.

"Lord Du, His Majesty entrusted you with the heavy responsibility of rectifying the administration of officials, and even let Dongchang and Jin Yiwei fully admire you. It shows His Majesty's trust in you. Which state is Du Shaolin going to start with?" Xiao Rui asked.

When Du Shaonian heard the words "rectify the administration of officials", he was determined.Early in the morning, Du Shaonian suspected that His Majesty was going to start a new round of rectification of officials. The inventory of the granary was just the beginning. Now Xiao Rui said straight to the point, not only reassuring him, but also knowing what he should do.

"Your Highness, this subordinate wants to start from Chang'an and check the tricks there, what does Your Highness think?" Du Shaonian replied.

Xiao Rui smiled immediately, nodded and said: "Chang'an is good, the Xijing warehouse is in Chang'an, maybe we can use the Xijing warehouse as a breakthrough to find out some big problems. Your Majesty said that this time the rectification of officials will have to catch a few big fish , I don’t know who the big fish is in the first place! It shouldn’t be Master Du!”

Du Shaonian hurriedly waved his hands and shook his head, and said: "Your Highness must be joking. Since I have served as the Zuodu Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, I have always kept the mission of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in mind. Don't form cliques for private interests, the officials are loyal to the imperial court, to His Majesty, and to His Highness, the sun and the moon can show it!"

Xiao Rui laughed and said, "Big Xia needs an upright official like Mr. Du. By the way, where did Mr. Yang invite Du Shaonian to eat?"

Du Shaonian replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, it's a meal at Tianxiang Building! It's all delicacies from mountains and seas, such as bear's paw, velvet antler, snow lotus, and ginseng. After a rough calculation, the meal cost a hundred and ten taels. To tell you the truth, Your Majesty, I have never eaten such a rich delicacy, and now I think about it, I will never forget it."

"Master Yang is really generous. As the saying goes, people are soft-spoken. What is the purpose of Master Yang's meal, and what help do you need from Master Du?" Xiao Rui asked.

Unexpectedly, Du Shaonian chuckled and said, "Your Highness, Lord Yang didn't say it explicitly, he just said that he misses his family in Xijing, and his greatest wish is for the family's well-being."

Yang Feiyuan didn't say it directly. In his opinion, Du Shaonian is a smart person who has already discovered the problem of Xijing warehouse. If he hosted a banquet for him this time, Du Shaonian must know how to measure and turn a blind eye.It is a thankless task to offend a cabinet scholar and household secretary, what would Du Shaonian do?

"Then what did Lord Du say?" Xiao Rui asked.

Du Shaonian laughed and said: "The lower officials only focus on eating, don't listen to the things around them, just nod their heads, completely forget what Master Yang said, I'm really ashamed, Master Yang wouldn't say anything It's a big deal."

It really is a little fox, second only to Li Mingchong's existence. This time Yang Feiyuan not only lost a meal, but also proved that the problem of Xijing warehouse is inseparable from the Yang family!

"Master Du chose to start the investigation in Chang'an. I think it is very suitable. It just so happens that I have some important information at hand, and I will order someone to send it to you." Xiao Rui said.

Du Shaonian got up, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty understands, please rest assured, Your Majesty and Your Highness, I will definitely handle things beautifully."

Xiao Rui nodded, and then left without staying in the Metropolitan Procuratorate for a long time.

After walking around Zhan Shi's mansion, Zhang Liang and Xiao He were packing their bags and were ready to leave in two days.

Today's Zhang Liang is famous in the capital, and he jumped to the position of Anxi Jiedu Envoy in less than a year. What a great reward it is to have such an honor, and it is also because His Majesty can hold the court, and Anxi Jiedu Even if it is a newly established official, it is also under the jurisdiction of fourteen prefectures, and there is no division of the original cake, so although the Minister of the Ministry of Officials shouted a few words, he was frightened by His Majesty's eyes and shut up.

Everyone believed that Zhang Liang's achievements were not due to his own talents, but because he chose the right people to follow!

Following the crown prince is the only way to achieve the current achievement. His Majesty's trust and love for the crown prince really makes the crown prince of the enemy country jealous!

And the result is that the recruiting hall established by Xiao Rui is overcrowded, and countless people want to follow Xiao Rui, hoping to reach the sky in one step, so as to make a fortune.

Nowadays, following His Highness the Crown Prince has become a way to enter the official career faster than the imperial examination. Fortunately, Xiao Rui lives in the East Palace, otherwise there would be as many invitations as snowflakes in the mansion.

Chapter 547: The Blind Date Conference

Inside Zhan Shifu.

Xiao Rui is playing chess with Jia Xu, the chess skills of the four counselors are not bad, Xiao He's routine is good at using rules, Zhang Liang's chess skill is flexible, Guo Jia is good at using tricks, as for Jia Xu... insidiousness is the only routine.

Xiao Rui's chess skills are not bad, and he also likes to play Yinqi, so he likes to play chess with Jia Xu, and he has a good time.

At this moment, a steward asked for an interview and presented Zhang Liang with a greeting card.

After Zhang Liang looked at it, he looked a little helpless, and immediately put it on the table and ignored it.

This scene aroused Xiao Rui's curiosity. In name, Jia Xu was Zhan's business, so he had to report to him if he had something to do. Since he went to Zhang Liang directly, it must be directly related to Zhang Liang.

Xiao Rui looked at Jia Xu, blinking his eyes to reveal the meaning of asking, Jia Xu understood, stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Highness doesn't know, in just two days, Zifang has received twenty or thirty invitation letters, please invite him A narration of the government, including Cheng Ming University, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Industry, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment..."

"Why did they invite Ovary?" Xiao Rui asked in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang had a helpless look on his face, while Xiao He and Guo Jia had sweet smiles on their faces, so Jia Xu continued to say, "What else can I do, let's talk about kissing!"

Xiao Rui patted his forehead, that's right, Zhang Liang's boss is not young, and it's time to get married!

Not only Zhang Liang, but also Guo Jia, Xiao He, and even Jia Xu, seem to be unmarried because of the advent!

This can't be done!

As their leader, caring about the marriage of their subordinates is also a top priority. Why don't they hold a grand blind date meeting?Since he became the prince, besides conspiracy, he has devoted himself to government affairs. He has done a lot of things, but lost communication.

Xiao Rui immediately made up his mind, and then left Zhan Shifu without telling the four of them, and then sent someone to find the golden leopard.

"The villain, the leopard, pays homage to His Highness, and your Highness is blessed and safe." The leopard is still round like a ball.

Xiao Rui waved his hand and said with a smile: "Get up, I called you here today because I have a big matter for you."

"Your Highness, please tell me that the villain will go through fire and water." Jin Bao replied, patting his chest.

Xiao Rui said: "I want to hold a grand banquet. The most important thing is to invite Yunying's unmarried girls. The more the better, the more beautiful the better."

The golden leopard's eyes lit up, and he immediately shouted: "I understand what your highness means, don't worry, your highness, I will definitely choose the most beautiful one!"

After finishing speaking, the leopard suddenly hesitated to speak.

"If you have something to say directly, it's not like your personality to hesitate." Xiao Rui asked.

The golden leopard rubbed his hands, and said with a chuckle: "Your Highness only has two empresses, which is indeed a little short. As long as you reveal your highness's intentions, the girls in Kyoto are not crazy! When your highness ascends the throne in the future, those who have received favor Girls are at least noble. Even if you are a maidservant by His Majesty's side, you will be smoking from the graves of your ancestors. But the villain thinks that it is better to seek closer than far away. The people around you are confidantes, like... um Well, for example, the villain’s younger sister, Azhu. Azhu can also be regarded as traveling with His Highness, and I heard that she also lived in a room in the same inn, so His Highness just didn’t do anything, and replaced it with other men, hehe..."

Xiao Rui had black lines on his face.

"Who did you hear that I shared a room with your sister and did nothing?" Xiao Rui asked.
