Liu Xie looked confused and looked at the old man who was so arrogant on the ground, but in fact he was scolding him.

It seems that this is the first time he has been scolded since he broke through time.

Well... I was finally scolded? This is so good!

I can't find such talents everywhere!

But seeing that everyone in the court changed color, Kong Rong even shouted loudly: "Old man! How dare you rely on your seniority and insult the emperor? Who was instructed by me? Do you think that if the emperor is kind, there will be no serious punishment or laws?"

As he said that, Kong Rong looked at Cao Cao angrily.

Cao Cao was also confused. What does this have to do with me? Kong Rong, all kinds of shit, are pressing on me!

Liu Bei also said with a shallow face: "Emperor Wu's defeat is equal, set up a doctor of the Five Classics, establish a governor, establish an admonition, and promote the people to expel Hu kidnap. This is also the only old man who can comment? As for the fact that Emperor Wu had a son and killed him in his later years, there was a Luntai self-criticism as evidence. The court, the government, the public and historians had a consensus, so it is for you to say? Besides, the one you said is called "Capitals, Reporting, and Oral Calculation". What does it have to do with the salt and iron that we are discussing today? What does it have to do with the emperor? Is the old man who abolished the captive tax? Is it so confused that he still doesn't know?"

Xun Yu simply ignored him and asked Guo Jia with a cold face, "What should I do if I insult the emperor in court and slander Hanwu?"

"this……"

But Liu Xie slapped his thigh and stood up: "What crimes are you guilty? Why don't you let others talk? Ordinary people, why do they punish him? I invited them to the capital to participate in the debate. If you say something bad, you will punish him? The so-called "prevention of the people is more important than preventing Sichuan". Could it be that I am a foolish monarch who cannot listen to his opinions? Is this really unreasonable? Isn't this the real suffering of the people?"

I thought to myself, I scolded well, this old man is such a good baby!

His prestige is inexplicably high now, and sometimes he even feels that few of the subjects in the world regard him as a monarch, and they all regard him as a god.

This wind cannot rise!

Such a high prestige is a waste of abdication!

Now, someone finally dares to scold me. Among the civil and military officials in the court, such a person needs to scold me from time to time to destroy my prestige.

"Everything that the old man said is heartfelt and honest. It's right. I, and all the officials and ministers in the court, have good intentions, but after all, the situation is so high that it's hard to hear the real voices of the people."

"Old man, do you have a great name?"

"Your Majesty won't kill me?"

"If I kill you, wouldn't I really become a foolish monarch in the world?"

"Old man's surname is Hu, and he is in his family. He doesn't have a formal name, so he all calls me Hu San."

"Okay, Mr. Hu San, you said very well. I haven't heard such honest and honest words for a long time. All the civil and military officials in the court can only praise me and say good things about me. I still think that peace is the only one who rejuvenates the country. Isn't it ridiculous?"

When the ministers heard this, their faces looked extremely strange.

You are too humble, right? It seems that we are all treacherous ministers who flatter you.

Yes, what the old man said makes sense, but just because the salt and iron franchise was a policy during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, the emperor convened a salt and iron meeting to discuss the method of salt and iron. How could he attribute the phenomenon of having children and killing them during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han to the emperor? Isn’t this also a sophistry?

Besides, the fact that children were killed by giving birth was because of the calculation of taxes. In the late Han Dynasty, children over three years old had to pay taxes, and the tax was extremely heavy, which led to the public killing their children in large numbers. The problem was that the son had already cancelled the cap tax today!

Can such a thing be put on the head of the son of today? Did you strangle your child to death and act like a sin committed by today? If you want to scold, you should scold the late emperor!

To take a step back, it was already a matter of Emperor Wu of Han’s late period. People’s livelihood in the middle and early periods were barely reasonable. Emperor Wu of Han also had a Luntai self-criticism in his later years. How could he erase the merits of expelling the Huns even if he was not a wise monarch of the generation?

In short, if you say that this old man is ill-intentioned, or just bribed by Cao Cao, and deliberately make trouble here, it really won't be possible.

But if you say that he is so right, if the people at the bottom of the salt and iron franchise are really unable to survive, and even the people have reached the point of killing children, it would be pure nonsense.

As for the statement that the official workshop treats the people as garbage and does not cherish the lives of the people at all, isn’t that the result of the complete corruption of the administration of officials in the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty? Who was the destruction of the administration? Isn’t it representing the party members of the powerful class?

If they don’t completely ruin the official workshops, how can they use the poor without scrupulousness, how can they treat tenants as livestock, and even do this as a gift?

If this is not the case, the Shaofu, as one of the nine ministers, would not have become a pure false title after the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The cart is put before the horse!

It should be said that what he said has some truth, but his identity and knowledge determine that he could not look at this issue comprehensively and objectively, nor could he really understand how the salt and iron franchise during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han was running. Many issues were even obviously exaggerated.

To put it bluntly, is it just an ordinary folk old man? The so-called summer insects cannot be talked about, that's what it means.

But the emperor...

Could it be that the emperor really believed what the old man said?

After seeing Liu Xie sighed, he personally helped the old man up. He looked heartbroken and heartbroken, but he couldn't tell whether it was true or false, and said: "I'm wrong, please get up quickly, please get up quickly, you can't let the people live in peace and work, and you can't let an elderly like you live your life."

"I decided to set up an institution in Taichung, the Censor Taichung, which is specially designed to recruit elderly people like the old man who are knowledgeable but dare to speak up for justice to criticize the gains and losses of the imperial court's administration. However, if there are any major affairs of the country, the imperial court has any administrative inappropriate administration and waste of the people and money, from me to the minor officials from the Shangshutai, they can be scolded at will, and the rank is 400 stones. Can the old man be willing to share the worries of the country?"

The old man was stunned at this moment, "What? Let me be an official?"

"Yes, let you be an official and be responsible for waking me up all the time."

Humph, don’t you all say that I am a wise monarch? I hired a bunch of old men to scold me every day, but I feel embarrassed to brag me.

If this continues, will my reputation decline?

"I...I...I...I can be an official? The rank is more than four hundred stones? Isn't that bigger than the county lieutenant in our county?"

"Your county magistrate dare not scold me."

After saying that, he heard a puff, and the old man's shorts changed his face. Then Liu Xie felt an unspeakable stench coming to his face and couldn't help frowning.

Then, the old man didn't know if he was too excited or too embarrassed, so he fell down with his big eyes.

The confused ministers whispered to each other: "Did he shit?"

"Well... Is it understandable, understandable?"
