Chapter 249 Congratulate the Great Han for getting this good minister! (2 in 1)
Why didn’t I think of such a good plan!!
Li Ru was shocked again, and slapped his forehead hard with annoyance, and then plucked out two beards on his chin.
At this time, when she heard Dong Zhuo's question, she calmed down and Su Rong came to Liu Cheng and bowed respectfully to Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng hid in a hurry.
"As my father-in-law said, Kede's words are really a plan for the country!
These words are better than a hundred thousand soldiers! Better than ten great battles!"
"If we continue to implement what Kede said, within five years, no one in this land will dare to look down on my father-in-law!
It can really be done. If you retreat, you will guard the pass, and no one will dare to come to provoke you; if you advance, you will whip the world, and no one will be able to take the lead!"
After saying that, Li Ru said with emotion: "The talent of Kede is far above me! I might as well be far away!"
After all, Li Ru didn't feel any envy or jealousy in his heart, but he was very happy.
This is not to say that Li Ru is a very good person.
It's because, with such a niece-in-law who is better than he imagined, he, as an uncle, can safely and boldly blame his niece-in-law when something happens in the future.
You can now study your favorite subjects with peace of mind...
Hearing Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo, who was already very happy, became even happier.
"Let me just say, if there was nothing extremely important, Kede would not come to see me in person!
Now, it’s exactly what I thought!”
After saying that, he looked at Li Ru again, ready to speak.
As a result, before Dong Zhuo could speak, Li Ru had already jumped in front of Li Ru and spoke first.
"Father-in-law, Kede was very clear when talking about this matter. I think he had already made enough preparations in this regard before coming here.
Moreover, Kede was the one who suggested building the canal, so he knew more about this matter than the average person.
During this time, he was able to arrange the people and carry out farming. There were nearly a million people, but he was able to do everything in an orderly manner without any trouble. It can be seen that Kede is really capable in this matter.
Now that things in Mintun are initially stable, from now on we just need to proceed step by step.
Kede just had his hands free to build the canal.
Kede is young, strong and energetic, so Kede is the most suitable person to do this!"
Seeing his son-in-law gushing out such long words in one breath, Dong Zhuo's mouth, which had been open for a while, finally closed.
"Father-in-law, what do you think?"
After Li Ru talked for a while about the necessity that Liu Cheng should take charge of building the canal, he looked at Dong Zhuo and asked this sentence.
Seeing his son-in-law's appearance, Dong Zhuo unconsciously raised his right foot.
He really wanted to just kick Li Ru's butt hard.
But seeing Liu Cheng, his grandson-in-law, present, in order to save some face for Li Ru in front of the younger generation, he still did not kick him in the face.
"You've already said what you need to say, and you still ask me what I think?
What do you think I should do?"
Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru and said angrily.
Li Ru scratched the back of his head with his hand and giggled.
Seeing this, Dong Zhuo became even more angry.
He moved his gaze away from Li Ru and looked at Liu Cheng: "Kede, what do you think of what your uncle said?
Can you do it?"
When Liu Cheng heard this, he glanced at the man who was winking at him in a serious manner, constantly hinting to himself, and quickly gave this task to Li Ru, who was next in line. He couldn't help but sniff lightly for a while.
She had not made an engagement with Dong Bai before, and when Li Ru was not her uncle, she never knew that such a sinister Li Ru actually had such a side!
With this guy by your side, you don't need to take the initiative to fight for anything. This guy has arranged everything for you!
It’s much crisper and clearer than speaking on your own!
It seems that if I want to get anything from Dong Zhuo from now on, I must win over this guy!
Having this guy here is such a peace of mind!
Liu Cheng immediately declined, and then moved on to the matter...
Dong Zhuo, Li Ru and Liu Cheng discussed some matters regarding the construction of water conservancy here. After finalizing some details and some necessary things, they immediately began to issue orders and summoned the three ministers and nine ministers to come to his house to discuss the matter.
!
At this time, Dong Zhuo had already put the young emperor aside and discussed various important matters, completely bypassing the emperor and only conducting them in his palace.
When Wang Yun received this order, he had just finished handling the government affairs in his hands.
He was so angry at Liu Cheng's actions that he calmed down a little and began to call on the officials who were not far away from him to follow him to Dong Zhuo's place for a meeting.
While walking on the road, Wang Yun was still thinking about the news that the confidant he sent today brought back from Liu Cheng.
He didn't even receive his own envoy, and he didn't even reply to a formal letter. He just asked his bodyguard to pass the message on his behalf, saying that he had important things to do and would visit his house another day when he was free.
.
This attitude clearly means that you don’t take yourself seriously!
There is nothing important to be busy with!
This is obviously because he doesn’t want to attend the banquet at his own house and is deliberately trying to avoid it!
I didn't even find a serious excuse, so I just dealt with it perfunctorily!
How can Wang Yun not feel angry in such a situation?
Unlike Wang Yun, many of the other people who were summoned by Dong Zhuo were very happy and looked forward to this meeting.
Because they had been able to guess that this time Dong Zhuo suddenly summoned so many of them to discuss matters, and most likely they would announce how to arrange the work of the remaining villages and carry out work-replacement activities.
They felt that Dong Zhuo would definitely agree to let them and others come to Chang'an this time to build houses for themselves and others.
After all, apart from this, there is nothing else important to do, and there is no work that requires so much labor at once.
What's more, when they were in Luoyang in the past, they always had houses.
It was all because Dong Zhuo insisted on moving the capital that he and others lost their original residence.
He and others are all important ministers of the Han Dynasty, and they have been living in shabby dwellings of poor people's homes, but it is not possible.
It's a disgrace to the big man's face, and it's also disrespectful to the identity of himself and others.
At this time, Dong Zhuo and others were carrying out large-scale construction projects.
Due to emotions and reasons, Dong Zhuo would not refuse if he and others made such a request at this time!
Some people are also worried whether Dong Zhuo has come up with some whimsical and treacherous ideas and wants to implement them.
It’s no wonder they think this way, Dong Zhuo has too many such criminal records!
Cai Shizhong persuaded him not to come up with any more crooked ideas...
With the different ideas of the officials, they came to Dong Zhuo's house, a place where they often discussed things.
After arriving here, many people couldn't help but be stunned.
Because they discovered that Liu Cheng, Liu Huangshu, the general of the army who had been in the limelight recently, was actually here!
This is really rare.
After being stunned for a moment, many people came forward to greet Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng's status is on display here.
In addition, in recent times, we have successively launched farmland and used work as a substitute for economic development.
To these people, this is even more eye-catching than Liu Cheng's dazzling achievements on the battlefield.
They are not people who go to the battlefield to fight. They have never experienced the battlefield, so they subconsciously feel that the battlefield is not difficult enough.
But what Liu Cheng has done recently is within the scope of what these people are familiar with...
Liu Cheng, on the other hand, took the greetings and greetings from these people indifferently, and was not enthusiastic or cold.
Wang Yun, who was full of anger at Liu Cheng's previous actions, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Liu Cheng.
Could it be that Uncle Liu Huang was not perfunctory with him?
But are there really important things to do?
When the people were almost there, Dong Zhuo came out.
Everyone, including Wang Yun and Xun Shuang, came forward to pay tribute, and no one dared to neglect him.
Dong Zhuo didn't waste any time talking to these people, and directly talked about what Liu Cheng said about using the remaining villagers and taking advantage of the good opportunity of using work as a means of invigoration to repair the three water canals on the Guanzhong Plain, Baigong Canal, Zhengguo Canal, and Longshou Canal.
He briefly explained it and asked Liu Cheng, the person who proposed this matter and would be in charge of it, to explain the matter in detail to everyone...
…
After Liu Cheng explained the matter in detail, the entire hall where the matter was discussed fell silent.
Seeing the reactions of these officials, Dong Zhuo felt extremely relieved.
Coming!
Coming!
This wonderful feeling is here again!
Sure enough, it would be most useful for these officials to act according to the method of his good grandson-in-law Kede!
"You are all talented people. What do you think of the proposal that Kede mentioned?"
Dong Zhuo waited for a while, but when he saw that these people were still silent, he couldn't help but ask questions.
Looking at Liu Cheng standing next to Dong Zhuo, Xun Shuang was in a daze. Hearing Dong Zhuo's words, his body shook slightly, and then he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said:
“This is the way to make a country rich, this is the right way!
If these three channels can really be cleared, Guanzhong will once again be a fertile and wild place!
I congratulate the Han Dynasty for having such a good minister!
Congratulations to the prime minister for getting such a good son-in-law!
Congratulations to the prime minister for winning the hearts of the people in Guanzhong!"
Xun Shuang said it very seriously.
At this time, Wang Yun also stood up and stepped forward to congratulate him.
Some of the anger in Liu Cheng's heart due to Liu Cheng's perfunctory rejection of his invitation disappeared completely at this time.
He originally thought that Uncle Liu Huang was perfunctory with him.
Now it seems that Uncle Liu Huang is really not just perfunctory, but really has something to be busy with!
Moreover, this busy thing is still so important!
Compared with what Uncle Liu Huang is doing, what he is planning seems to be extremely stupid!
As Xun Shuang and Wang Yun spoke up, the others also stepped forward to congratulate them.
Especially in the past, officials who had made suggestions to Dong Zhuo openly and secretly through various channels to use the remaining people from the villages to build Chang'an residences were even faster to come forward to congratulate him.
He was afraid that if he acted slowly, Dong Zhuo would find a suitable excuse to have him stabbed.
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but snorted in his heart when he saw such a scene.
Even if these guys still have some glances, if any one of them is slow in action, he will have a few guys hacked to death today to scare the monkeys and set an example. Let's see if these guys dare to deceive themselves in the future and prepare to harm the public and enrich themselves.

"Doctor Ma, Yilang Zhong...don't you want to build a house?
It can be fixed now.
However, you need to pay for everything you need to build your home!
Moreover, when building a house, you cannot use rice slurry or other things. These are life-saving things!
It’s such a pity to use it to build houses!
Only cement can be used, not mud!
I’ll sell it to you at twice the original price!”
Dong Zhuo thought for a while and then said: "Don't delay, construction will start within a month! We can't delay moving in until the end of the year!"
You are all good ministers of the Han Dynasty, and you are the dignity of the Han Dynasty!
It’s unacceptable if the place I live in is too bad, it will damage my image as a big man!”
Although he could be exempted from death penalty, according to Dong Zhuo's temper, he could not escape from living crime.
The faces of those whose names were called turned pale. They quickly came out to admit their mistakes and expressed their gratitude to Dong Zhuo for his generosity.
Dong Zhuo waved his hands impatiently: "You all should thank Kede. If Kede had not once again offered suggestions that benefit the country and the people, I would be happy. It would be impossible for you to pass the test so easily this time!"
After hearing this, these people thanked Dong Zhuo and then quickly thanked Liu Cheng...
No one had objections to the suggestions put forward by Liu Cheng.
First of all, Dong Zhuo, a man who likes to chop off people's heads, has clearly expressed his attitude.
Secondly, since the Qin State built the Zhengguo Canal, which proved to the world how beneficial building water conservancy is to farmland and enhance national strength, it has long been recognized as politically correct to build water conservancy facilities and increase field output.
Especially now that the conditions are so good.
No one in their right mind would object at this time...
The meeting dispersed, and Emperor Liu Cheng and Uncle Liu once again entered the hearts of these courtiers.
Many of his courtiers' moods became more complicated when they thought of him.
It's not just these courtiers who are complicated, Diao Chan's heart is also extremely complicated.
After getting the instructions from her adoptive father, she started dressing up early.
Even bathing, changing clothes, and applying makeup afterward took two to three hours.
After that, I practiced a carefully selected dance and thought about what I should say next.
As a result, after carefully and nervously preparing for such a long time, I received the news that Uncle Liu Huang would not be coming today...
