Since Ying Che ascended the throne, although he looked calm on the surface, he was actually turbulent. The prince and minister headed by King Rong did not calm down. He kept making small moves in private and always tried to embarrassed Ying Che in the government.

For example, in Henan this year, a huge stone rushed out of the embankment, which read that there was no wise ruler in the country, and the finger pointed directly at Ying Che.

It even spread among the people that the current saint killed his father and usurped the throne, which was not orthodox. Therefore, heavy rain fell from heaven to punish him.

These are simply nonsense, but there are rumors and incitement from those who are interested. The three of them become tigers. In addition, Ying Che was demoted to a commoner before and ascended the throne overnight. The people believed it and the people were in a hurry. Some places even stopped armed uprisings and wanted to overthrow Ying Che who was planning to usurp the usurpation.

The Rong Wang party members also used this as an excuse to be aggressive in the court, and they almost pointed at Ying Che's nose and said that he was not worthy of being the emperor.

King Rong suppressed the faint smile of joy at the corner of his mouth and said, "It's so ridiculous. Those ordinary people are really ignorant. What does a stone mean? Lord Yan, you can also move this matter to the court, which makes people laugh."

"But now the people are talking about it, saying that this is an ominous sign, and mobs are emerging everywhere. I am afraid that this will continue..."

"What are you afraid of? Whoever discusses it will arrest him. I see who else dares to talk nonsense. As for those mobs, one word is to kill. Dare to resist the court is simply a way out."

Ying Che sat upright on the dragon throne, raised his eyebrows, and said, "King Yirong said, what should I do?"

King Rong bowed to Ying Che, "Brother, you must not be lenient. You must use thunder to kill all the people who commit rebellion with the power of thunder to shock the people."

Hua Junze sneered and said, "Kill them all? I'm afraid that if this is the case, it will only arouse greater public anger. The people will think that the emperor is a tyrant, and it will be even more out of control. King Rong is so smart, how can he be so incomplete?"

King Rong looked cold, "I have made this suggestion because of my detailed thoughts. Many people are not convinced by the first time the emperor ascended the throne. This happened to use this matter to intimidate the world, so that those who are dissatisfied will be in awe, dare not cause trouble, and dare not question the emperor again. It is just killing two birds with one stone, why not do it?"

Ying Che sneered: "It turns out that killing people is necessary to deter the world? Then what is the difference between the emperor, I, as a tyrant? I really don't agree with the advice of the fifth emperor brother."

Hua Junzen looked at King Rong, "I don't dare to agree."

Ying Che said: "What suggestions do Hua Aiqing have?"

Hua Junze said: "When you go back to the emperor, the most important thing is to treat the victims. Those divine stone guides are just someone pretending to be a ghost, and you don't need to pay attention. The emperor can send people to Henan to provide disaster relief on the one hand, and send people to appease the people and suppress the mobs on the other hand. As for the others, can the emperor ever hear a saying that "Fall in the Autumn Time?"

Ying Che smiled and said, "What you said is very consistent with my wish."

King Rong glanced at their king and ministers, with a hint of anger in his eyes. He turned his eyes and looked at Fang Tao, the Minister of Revenue. Fang Tao was the uncle of Princess Rong. When he received his eyes, Fang Tao took a step forward, holding a tablet in his hands and said, "I wonder how much money the emperor wants to allocate to Henan for disaster relief? Now the national treasury is empty, and I am afraid that I will not be able to bring so much money for the time being."

Ying Che had long guessed that the Ministry of Revenue would not cooperate with him and asked, "How much money can the Ministry of Revenue take out?"

Fang Tao glanced at King Rong and said, "A maximum of 600,000."

"Six hundred thousand?" Ying Che couldn't help but chuckled, "My treasury of Daqin is only 600,000 taels of silver?"

Fang Tao's eyes flashed, and he glanced at King Rong's sleeve casually, and then said, "When the late emperor was there, the treasury was already in short supply. In the past two years, the locust drought disasters in Shanxi and Shandong have been spent on two million, and military expenses are also required. The funeral of the late emperor, the emperor's throne ceremony, and the queen's enthronement ceremony all cost a lot of money. At this moment, the treasury really has not much silver."

Ying Che slapped the table in anger, "Damn it, look at me and fool me, right?"

Fang Tao looked panicked, "No, I don't, I dare not."

Ying Che said: "Last year, there were locusts in Shandong, and the court issued one million yuan in disaster relief silver. This is true. But if you are not making enough money, you are lying! The taxes collected in various places every year are as many as million taels. Not to mention other places, the poor land in Qianzhou last year paid more than one million taels of taxes, let alone the prosperous places like the prosperous places in Jiangnan. The late emperor was buried, I ascended the throne, and the empress's enthronement was not taken from your Ministry of Revenue, but the money they took was the silver from the inner court. So what was left? Was it greedy for you Fang Tao?"

Fang Tao was so scared that his cheeks were shaking, and he knelt on the ground and said, "I dare not, I dare not. These accounts have details. If the emperor does not believe it, he can check the accounts. Even if I have ten heads, I will not dare to gree with the imperial court's money."

Ying Cheliang didn't dare to do so. In recent years, he fought many times, and there were many natural disasters. The treasury was indeed not as full as in previous years, but it would never be so small.

Fang Tao paused, raised his head suddenly, looked straight at Yingche, and said firmly: "If the emperor does not believe in me, I will resign from the position of Shangshu and let those who are capable take up the position of "Shangshu."

He originally wanted to retreat as an advance, and use his resignation to scare Ying Che, but Ying Che nodded deeply and said, "You still have self-knowledge. As the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, you cannot let the treasury balance and have no choice but to pay responsibilities. From now on, you will not have to go to court again. Qi Yue, I have promoted you to the Minister of Revenue and lead the Ministry of Revenue from now on. You must squeeze out one million and five hundred thousand taels of silver for me within ten days to send it to the disaster area."

Ying Che was resolute and determined to connect with the candidate for him. Fang Tao was stunned for a moment. King Rong was red from the side since he said he had resigned. If he hadn't been in the court, he would have kicked him now.

He had fat heads and ears, and his stomach was filled with intestines and fat, and his brain was not long at all. Ying Che tried every means to weaken his power and had no idea how to start. This fool was so he was sent to the door for nothing.

King Rong said urgently: "The promotion of an official is not a joke, the emperor thinks twice. Lord Fang only said he would resign. Moreover, Qi Yue is so young and was only in the Secretariat before, so how could he take on such a great responsibility as the Minister of Revenue?"

Qi Yue is only twenty-three years old this year, and he was a Tanhua who was a scientific expedition two years ago. He wrote good writings. He was left in the Secretariat by the late emperor and specially drafted documents and edicts.

Qi Yue said in a trepidated manner: "I am still very experienced and I am afraid that I will let down the emperor's love."

Ying Che ignored King Rong and said to Qi Yue: "How can you not do this kind of experience? I believe in you, you can do it. Don't you believe in yourself?"
