Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Ning Fan is not very dedicated, but he really wants to see the reaction of the ministers. After all, the ministers have been doing a lot in private recently.

What Ning Fan has to do is to be a person standing outside the fish tank and quietly observe the fish in the fish tank.

In the end, Li Chunan couldn't defeat Ning Fan, so he called a few young eunuchs to change Ning Fan's clothes. Ning Fan, who was neatly dressed, didn't look sick at all, but he himself felt dizzy and drowsy.

With Zhang Wen's lessons learned, when the civil and military officials now face Ning Fan, the emperor, there is more awe in their eyes.

The topics discussed throughout the morning were insignificant topics. Basically, Cheng Wei, the chief minister of the cabinet, came up with some preparation proposals for next year's imperial examination and so on.

Ning Fan approved all these things, and also asked the Ministry of Accounts to allocate some money.

"I plan to reopen the border for trade, not only with the Huns, but also with other countries in the Western Regions."

Ning Fan took advantage of the fact that the ministers were not paying attention and instantly asked the questions he had prepared long ago.

In fact, Ning Fan had decided on this matter a long time ago. The reason why he said it now was not to let the ministers discuss the feasibility, but to inform him. Many smart people already understood what Ning Fan meant and chose to remain silent. , but some people actually stood up to oppose it in order to show their loyalty and outspokenness.

"Your Majesty, you must not do this."

"What the Huns lack most is nothing more than salt and iron, as well as tea, silk, etc. If we sell these commodities to the Huns, it will undoubtedly make the Huns rich, which is equivalent to capitalizing on the enemy. No border trade can be opened, and no business can be done with the Huns.”

Chen Hui, the censor of the right capital, said loudly.

Ning Fan was not surprised to see someone standing up to oppose him. He just looked at the civil and military officials in the audience with a calm expression, and glanced majestically. Many people lowered their heads silently, not daring to look at Ning Fan. .

"Chen Hui, what you said makes some sense. Please step back for a moment and let me see if others have any opinions. What opinions can you all share?"

Ning Fan's expression was so calm that it was impossible to see clearly. What was Ning Fan thinking in his mind?

However, because of Zhang Wen's experience, most people remained silent and did not dare to touch Ning Fan's troubles, for fear that Ning Fan would accidentally kill him.

"Actually, what Chen Hui said was very good and very reasonable. I like to hear such well-founded words."

"But what I want to say is that doing business is a matter of mutual benefit. While we sell tea, silk, salt and iron to the Huns, we can also obtain a large amount of cattle, sheep, livestock and leather from the Huns. Of course Treasures of gold and silver are also indispensable.”

"Everyone, tell me, is the internal economy of Dakang still flowing now? The money has gone into the hands of a few people, and there is no silver in the market at all. I heard that all the money in the market is copper coins, and the silver has long since disappeared. , everyone, tell me where the money went?"

Ning Fan looked at the civil and military officials with a smile. He didn't believe it. No one knew the answer to this question. Maybe everyone knew it, but no one dared to say it.

"No one is talking, right? No one is talking about me. Who has the money in? When the money is in the hands of the rich, why don't they spend it? The truth is very simple."

"Because these people don't lack food or clothing, and they don't need to take money to buy things in the market. They have their own land and their own slaves, and they can produce everything they need. You said their money still needs to be spent. ?"

"In order for their children and grandchildren to enjoy happiness from generation to generation, these people tried their best to get the silver, melt it, and finally bury it in the ground."

"Do you think it's funny to do this? We worked hard to dig out this silver from the silver mines, and now you people have buried this silver in the soil."

The money on the market has lost its liquidity, and the entire Dakang economy has collapsed. Are you right or wrong in saying that I want to open up trade? "

"If you think I made a mistake, please stand up and object."

Ning Fan stared at the civil and military officials with burning eyes.

Sure enough, for a moment, the entire field could hear the drop of a needle. All the civil and military officials lowered their heads. No one dared to say a word. However, Ning Fan looked at it silently and then stood up and said: "Since everyone has no objection, , then this matter is settled, let’s retreat from the court!”

Ning Fan was the first to leave, and the remaining civil and military officials left the court silently.

Everyone was in different moods. Many people were silent, but they were extremely uneasy. Facing such a powerful emperor like Ning Fan, those officials who had ulterior motives were panicking.

There are also some officials who feel excited, especially Wang Huayun, the Minister of Revenue, whose face is red and his eyes are shining with excitement. He is the only one who knows the importance of business to a dynasty.

Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, since ancient times, businessmen have been the most disliked group of people, but businessmen play a vital role in the economy of the entire country.

From some big businessmen who opened banks to some peddlers selling chicken feather candies on the streets, these people injected vitality into the entire Dakang.

But now, as the economic cycle of the entire country has fallen into an extremely condensed state, these villagers have almost disappeared, and money in the entire country has almost ceased to circulate.

Money no longer circulates, which also proves that the materials no longer circulate. As the materials no longer circulate, the entire country is almost like an unrelated village, each working on its own and fighting on its own. The entire country is like a pool of stagnant water.

"Your Majesty, how are you feeling? The imperial doctor is already waiting in the Nuan Pavilion."

Li Chunan carefully supported Ning Fan and whispered beside him.

"What's the use of these doctors being quacks? Go and boil some eggs for me. I'll eat the eggs to enhance my immunity, and I'll be cured soon."

Ning Fan looked at this matter with a modern medical concept. In fact, he was not panic. Fever and cold were just diseases that everyone would get.

However, the final result still proved that Ning Fan was wrong. By night, Ning Fan had entered a state of high fever, and he felt as if his whole body was being burned by fire.

Although several imperial doctors tried their best to give Ning Fan a prescription, after the medicine was prepared, Ning Fan drank it to reduce the fever only temporarily, and soon the hot feeling would envelope Ning Fan again.

Ning Fan felt better in the morning of the next day and drank a bowl of white porridge. However, at noon, Ning Fan's condition worsened and he coughed violently. Coupled with the feeling of tightness in his chest, Ning Fan once felt like he was I can't stand it any longer.
