Xi Wanli ignored him and just shouted to Li Chen: "The prince does not care about right and wrong, and dismisses the ministers without asking the reason. What is wrong with the ministers? The civil and military officials of the whole dynasty will definitely not agree to such tyranny! It's a big deal for the ministers.
Even if he dies, the prince will lose the hearts of the people!"
However, Li Chen didn't bother to talk nonsense with Xi Wanli and scolded Sanbao: "Why don't you do something quickly?"
Seeing that Li Chen was angry, Sanbao raised his hand and dragged Xi Wanli away as he was afraid of being implicated.
Sanbao was short in stature, and Xi Wanli was a tall and burly man in his prime. However, in Sanbao's hands, he had no resistance at all and was dragged away like a chicken.
"I'm not convinced! I'm not convinced!!!"
Xi Wanli's roaring voice gradually faded away, and Li Chen snorted coldly, but he had already begun to think about what was going to happen next.
The most important reason why Xi Wanli was unlucky was not because he became a pawn in Zhao Xuanji's hands at this juncture. The most important thing was that he was the Minister of War.
This position has been arranged by Li Chen.
If Xi Wanli can't get up, how can he free up his position?
If this position is not vacated, how can Li Chen advance his plan to further control the imperial military?
Without the power of Minister of the Ministry of War, Zhao Xuanji would definitely not give up. Then, Li Chen knew that he was likely to face Zhao Xuanji's revenge.
This old fox has been able to monopolize the government for so many years. His methods are ruthless and the city is so deep that he must be on guard against it.
Li Chen was also waiting, waiting for Zhao Xuanji to take action. As soon as he made the move, he would have the opportunity to assign the position of Minister of War to the person he wanted.
Then, after suppressing his chaotic thoughts for the time being, Li Chen began to read the memorial sent by the Supervisor of Ceremonies today.
Although Li Chen does not have the right to review the memorials yet, this does not prevent him from understanding the basic situation of the Qin Empire through the memorials.
In the feudal era, the communication system was not so developed. The emperor sat in the capital and would most likely never leave. Therefore, the only and most direct way to manage thousands of miles of land and understand the changes in public sentiment in the world was through memorials.
The cabinet had already written approval notes for these memorials. After Li Chen read them, the Supervisor of Ceremonies carried them back, made a vermilion approval according to the contents of the approval notes, and sent them back to various places.
But today's memorial made Li Chen feel particularly heavy.
As night falls, the lights in Xi Zheng Palace are still brightly lit.
"Three Treasures."
Upon hearing Li Chen's instructions, the Sanbao eunuch who had been guarding the door immediately bowed in.
"Your Highness, my servant is here."
Looking at the three treasures lying in the middle of the hall, Li Chen put down the memorial in his hand and said in a deep voice: "I just read the memorial and saw reports from Nanhe, Xijiang, Huguang, Gansu and Shaanxi that the floods have not subsided, and they suffered another disaster a few days ago.
Snow disaster, this wave of snow disaster is more harmful than the previous flood. It is initially estimated that the number of victims is as high as 800,000. Human tragedies of people exchanging food for food have already occurred in various places..."
Staring at the three treasures in front of him, Li Chen asked: "You are in charge of Dongchang and your eyes are all over the world. I want to know how serious the disaster has become?"
Sanbao froze when he heard the words. He didn't need to raise his head. He could feel Li Chen's solemn eyes focusing on him. The entire Xi Zheng Palace was filled with majesty. He was obviously in the East Palace of the Prince, but Sanbao suddenly felt the same as when he was in Wuying.
Palace, facing the pressure and tension of the Daxing Emperor in his heyday.
Taking a deep breath, Sanbao replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, what is mentioned in the memorial is probably the real disaster that has been covered up..."
