As the chief minister of the imperial cabinet, among these officials, it is a vane. Li Dongyang has specifically advised Ye Chunqiu on this matter. Why can't the others see the depth of it?

So someone came up and said with a smile: "To be honest, I have some books in my family. Haha, it may not be any serious classics. However, from the Four Books and Five Classics, the top scholar Duke of Zhenguo was naturally picked up by his master. Sometimes, it is not bad to read idle books."

Someone said, "I also have some miscellaneous books at home, and I will send them to the mansion tomorrow."

No matter what kind of mentality everyone has, but... everyone is very enthusiastic.

Passion is understandable.

In this matter, to some extent, it is actually an implicit political correctness.

Everyone was in this court, and they knew that the treasury income and expenditure of the court had been unbalanced, so since Hongzhi, the court had been trying new policies.

There are all kinds of reforms, and you will be the first to say that the so-called reform is nothing more than increasing revenue and reducing expenditure. It is impossible to increase revenue. It is impossible to increase revenue in this life, and effective economic policies will not be possible. Then we can only rely on reducing expenditure to maintain the imperial court's ownership.

Whose flow can be saved?

How dare you not pay the official army’s salary? The salaries of officials are already outrageously low. Even if they have to cut them, how much can they be cut? How dare you save the relief money, and aren’t afraid of civil changes? Is the river still repaired? Is it still cured?

In fact, everyone knows that the ones in the world who can solve this problem are gentry and the other are royal families!

The gentry can solve the problem by raising taxes. The problem is, who dares? The cabinet master of this cabinet was probably already knocked down by the wall before he could speak.

After thinking about it, the Zhu family was the fattest in the Ming Dynasty. If they could save the salary of the royal family, all the problems could be solved.

Which of the officials here is not a gentry? In this situation, it is only a matter of time before tax increases, and everyone is worried. Now, seeing Mr. Li’s intentions, it seems that he wants to use this to pry a hole in the ancestral law. If...

If Ye Chunqiu really won, then the first case of a royal family's salary expiration will appear in the world, and the ancestral law will have room to operate.

OK, anyway, if this continues, either the gentry will increase taxes or the royal family will be given a salary. After all, the knife will be cut on others, which will be so exciting.

With Mr. Li's statement, Ye Chunqiu suddenly became a hot figure. In the past, everyone had some complaints about Ye Chunqiu, just saying that you should go out of seclusion, but you insist on doing something about Ma Zheng. Isn't this cheating?

But now, it seems that this Duke Zhenguo is beneficial to the country and the people.

Therefore, everyone became much more enthusiastic.

Ye Chunqiu said implicitly: "No, no, thanks to your kindness, I will appreciate it."

As he spoke, he looked behind the crowd from afar, and saw that the King Xing and his son had already crossed the Jinshui Bridge and looked very cold.

In fact, this is easy to understand. People are realistic. Although the prince is noble, he cannot bring anything to all officials when it comes to reality. However, his own gambling of a salary-free man has brought everyone to his own side.

In this world, I am afraid that the one who wants to win the most is the civil and military officials in the court.

With a little humble smile and finally freed from this enthusiasm, Ye Chunqiu finally left the Meridian Gate with everyone.

Tang Bohu had been waiting outside the palace gate with his car. He saw Ye Chunqiu from afar. He saw Ye Chunqiu and the officials coming out. Many people were chatting enthusiastically around him, and they also felt spectacular. When Ye Chunqiu got on the car, Tang Bohu winked and got on the car, saying, "Master, what's going on today? Why is it so lively?"

Ye Chunqiu did not hide it from him, so he briefly told the matter.

Tang Bohu couldn't help but say in surprise: "No, isn't this kind of competition bullying? No matter how you look at it, you have no chance of winning. Master, let me tell the truth, this..."

Ye Chunqiu naturally knew what Tang Bohu wanted to say, but he smiled disapprovingly and said, "As long as you have the chance, it's better than having no chance at all. In fact, this matter is the first thing I have to do is to blame. Then, King Xing and his son suffered a grievance. Even if they were aggressive, it would be nothing. I also wanted to do this matter well and asked someone to mediate it, but they were accused of making the matter bigger, so I had to do it."

Tang Bohu said again: "This is absolutely unlucky, and the prince has no chance of winning."

"That depends on your fate." Ye Chunqiu seemed relaxed.

…………

Li Dongyang returned to the cabinet with great worries. He was always thinking about that gambling, but this gambling gave him hope, but also gave him despair.

The so-called hope is to give a hint of possibility of leveraging the ancestral law of offering to the royal family, and despair is that he is not very optimistic about this gambling as many people think.

The reason why King Xing and his son dared to agree is because of this.

Thinking of this, Li Dongyang sighed. He really hoped that Ye Chunqiu could win, but the hope for victory was too slim. How could everyone know everything in the world?

However, even so, it was not a bad opportunity. At this moment, he suddenly remembered something and said to the clerk: "Please come by Mr. Yang."

The clerk hurried away. After a while, Yang Tinghe walked in with a smile, saluted Li Dongyang and said, "Mr. Li, don't know what's going on?"

Li Dongyang took a sip of tea, then looked at Yang Tinghe slowly, and then said, "What do you think of the bet mentioned in the palace today?"

Hearing this, Yang Tinghe's heart sank, and he immediately realized what Mr. Li meant.

In the past, Li Dongyang was probably out of the way the conflict between Yang Tinghe and Ye Chunqiu was in conflict.

Li Dongyang has always been like this, but now, when he suddenly asked about this gambling, it was clearly an hint. Although he did not clearly put out the contradiction, he had a warning. He was very concerned about the gambling of Duke Zhenguo. Although his chances of winning were very small and minimal, he could never make any mistakes in the middle. You, Yang Tinghe, were a little calmer.

Yang Tinghe felt very upset. Of course, he did not dare to take the blame for the world. At this time, he was targeting Ye Chunqiu, but Li Dongyang's special warning was another matter.

To a certain extent, Yang Tinghe had to rely on Li Dongyang for many things. After thinking about it, Yang Tinghe had to say, "I said something I shouldn't say, Ye Chunqiu has no chance of winning."
