Chapter 128 Coping

King Lu was so angry that he returned to the palace.

"Father, how are you?" Qin Xu came out and asked if His Majesty had revoked the land restriction order.

"Your Majesty asked me to set an example for the clan and take the initiative to hand over the land." King Lu was not in a good mood.

"What? Father, you are his imperial uncle. You helped him with many things when he was a child. Why, now you dare to start taking away the land that your father deserves. You are simply unworthy of being a king."

‘Pa.’ Qin Xu was slapped on the face by King Lu.

"Father, you hit me?" Qin Xu felt unbelievable that his father actually hit him. This was the first time he hit him.

"He is your Majesty, how can you discuss it at will?" King Lu thought that although his mind was not very flexible, he still knew this.

"You can scold anyone, but don't scold His Majesty." King Lu said, "You can scold that traitor to shame, but don't say a bad word about His Majesty."

Don't you know that walls have ears? You can't just talk about this kind of thing casually. He always thought that he was stupid. He was bullied by traitorous officials and had no place to express his grievances. He didn't expect that his son was even stupider than him.

If he is gone in the future, his son will not be bullied by traitorous officials and he will not even know where he is.

What a stupid son of a landlord.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" One official said, if even King Lu handed over the land, wouldn't they have no room at all this time?

"What else can I do, Wuyan, go and give the king's land deed to Xie Ji."

King Lu said, "The land deeds show that he really doesn't have that much land. The land that exceeds it is only one thousand acres, so there is nothing he can't bear to part with."

Even if he wanted to feed that land to pigs, he wouldn't give it to Xie Ji.

However, His Majesty has spoken, and he will let that Xie Ji be proud of himself.

Wait, feed the pigs, yes, don’t give it to Xie Ji, give it to those untouchables.

"Wait a minute, Wuyan, go and give all those thousand acres of land to those people for free without charging a penny." King Lu said, even if he gave it all to those untouchables, he would not give it to Xie Ji.

When those officials heard what King Lu said, they couldn't believe it. So much land was given away just as it was said to be given away.

If I give it to Xie Ji, I can get it back at the price of ten taels of silver per acre of land.

"No." Wuyan said, took the land deed and went to apply for it.

"Your Majesty, are you giving away this land deed for free?" Wei Jun was a little reluctant.

"Otherwise, if you give it to that treacherous minister, I won't even feed him pigs." King Lu said loudly, and there would be no way for him to give it to that treacherous minister.

"Your Majesty is wise, I believe that traitor's expression will be very exciting." Another official said, what a good idea, as long as the land is transferred to the names of those untouchables.

At that time, the land will also be ours, and the untouchables will only help us keep it, and that traitor will be unable to do anything.

I will also limit your loneliness.

"The king's plan is really wonderful. Not only can it protect the land, but it can also make the traitor have nothing to say, so that the land restriction order will be defeated without attack."

What did King Lu think he had done? He just asked people to give away the land. How could this allow the land restriction order to be defeated?

Wait, if the land is given to those untouchables and is in their names, but in fact it still belongs to them, then the land restriction order will become empty words.

However, this is none of his business. He still needs some land, but he is happy to make Xie Ji unhappy.

"Okay, okay, your land may be gone, but go and notify those officials whose land has not been taken back and ask them to preserve the land." King Lu laughed and said, in this case, the treacherous minister will have nothing to do. It depends on you.

Shit.

After hearing this, some officials responded with their mouths, but felt unbalanced in their hearts.

Why would those people's land be preserved if their land was taken away? Why wouldn't they tell them?

Now those local officials may have heard the news and started to transfer it to those people's names.

Danyang Houfu.

Xie Ji stood outside the door and asked someone to go in and report.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is standing outside, saying he is here to pick up the wife and the young master."

Chen An said calmly: "Let him calm down the storm and let them meet again."

If Xie Ji continues to seek death, it will be bad if he is implicated.

Even if he doesn't think about himself, he still has to think about his children!

Who knows what happened to him and started to seek death? Isn't it good to be the prime minister?

What's more, the prince's attitude towards Xie Ji was extremely unfriendly.

He was even more worried about handing the child over to Xie Ji.

"Prime Minister, the Lord has said that you should calm down the storm first before talking."

How could Xie Ji not understand after hearing this? He just wanted to snatch his wife and children away and leave him alone.

"I want to see my father-in-law."

"The prince said he couldn't see you, Prime Minister, please leave!"

After saying that, he went in. Xie Ji wanted to say more, but was stopped by the guards.

"Hey." Xie Ji shook his sleeves and thought to himself, how could such a thing happen?

Why is he so depressed?

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xie Ji walked into the Prime Minister's Mansion with high spirits. How could he be so aggrieved?

"Prime Minister, Meng Shangshu is here."

"please."

After a while, Meng Tao walked in with a melancholy look.

His eyes were quite dull.

"Prime Minister, the land restriction order can no longer be implemented."

"What's wrong?"

"Your Majesty, these officials in the capital are easy to deal with, but you asked people to go to the local areas quickly to implement them. As a result, some people blatantly misinterpreted the Prime Minister's meaning."

"They transferred the land under their names to the names of those people. This is just one thing. Another thing is that there is a lot of land that is hidden."

"It's just nameless and ownerless, and those lands have not been registered. Prime Minister, you see, if it continues to be implemented, not only the officials below will violate it, but they will collude with other officials. It will waste manpower, material and financial resources, and the effect will be ineffective."

Meng Tao said, today he has seen what it means to have a good plan, and I have a wall ladder.

He found that the people whose land was collected today were those who had not had time to transfer, or were relatively stupid people.

In other cases, the land is transferred to the names of those people and gives them a name. In essence, it is still their own.

"Let them move first. No, let them move as completely as possible. Since they want to play tricks, let them do it."

"Local officials should report the land they own, and then report it after thinking clearly." Xie Ji said with a smile, he must make them regret this time.

"Prime Minister, do you have any idea?" Meng Tao said, but seeing the evil smile on Xie Ji's face, it seemed that those people were going to suffer.

"By the way, Prime Minister, that King of Lu gave away more land in his name to those people for free. Prime Minister, this..."

King Lu actually gave away all that land. He really didn't take the land seriously.

But is this done to oppose the Prime Minister?

"Giving it away?" Xie Ji was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he would give it away. He really didn't expect this.

But it's better to give it away, and he will have less expenses. It really saves him money.

The land was originally collected for people to cultivate, but he gave the land to those farmers. Wasn't it also used for meaningful things?

"Yeah." Meng Tao said, indeed he gave it away.

…Prince Chen’s Mansion…

"Brother, what should we do now?" A young man of about fifteen or sixteen years old said to a young man of twenty-seven or eighty-year-old.

That young man is Qin Yi, King of Changding, and the slightly older young man is named Qin Zhi, and he is the master of this palace, Qin Zhi.

Unexpectedly, even King Lu was bullied by Xie Ji and had no choice but to give away his land.

"Brother, that damn treacherous minister, I'll go find him to argue. Stealing people's property is really too much." Qin Yi said, damn Xie Ji, damn Xie Ji, it will only bring disaster to the country and the people.

I really don’t know why the emperor’s brother reused him. Shouldn’t he be killed to explain to the world?

"Don't go, it will be bad if you are tricked by him." Qin Zhu held Qin Yi's hand, that traitorous official was the best at plotting.

If you are not careful, you will fall into his trap. Not only will you not be able to deal with him, but you will also increase his prestige.

"Then let him continue to be arrogant. He dared to ignore his brother before, and now he is arrogant again." Qin Yi said, before, that Xie Ji actually ignored his brother's words and refused to give him face. Now, he is starting to act like a monster again.

Already.

"What does that treacherous minister want to do by reclaiming the land for farmers to cultivate?" Qin Ju was confused as to why that treacherous minister would be so kind.

Why didn't he believe it at all? If he was seeking personal gain from it, then it would be true.

"What does it matter what he does? Anyway, that treacherous minister has no good intentions and will only confuse His Majesty." Qin Yi muttered, it doesn't matter what the treacherous minister does, that treacherous minister is a treacherous minister, and treacherous ministers do bad things.

"Steward, go and get my land deeds. I heard that there are a lot of refugees outside, so give them all." Chen Wang Qinzhi said, he didn't understand what the traitor was playing. In this case, then give all the land deeds to them.

Those refugees.

The treacherous minister can't even dream of getting an acre. It seems that the emperor's uncle has given him a reference.

Not only did he not disobey His Majesty's edict, but he also prevented the traitor from getting even half of his land.

"promise."

"Brother, I don't need it. I don't have as much land as you." Qin Yi said with a smile. His land was small to begin with and he didn't exceed the limit at all.

That treacherous minister, huh, I won’t give you even an acre of land, I’ll make you so angry.

Qin Ju smiled when he saw Qin Yi pouting and scolding the treacherous minister, as if venting his anger for him.
