After stepping on all the noble families, the empress asked me to marry her?

Chapter 98 At least I got help! I'll be disappointed!

【Visiting people who are in difficult circumstances.】

[This is a policy that Chen Huaixin had already set several years ago.]

【Or rather. 】

【At the very beginning. 】

[He asked the local officials to visit the disabled and meritorious soldiers during festivals, to ask them questions and care about them in person, and to help them solve the difficulties they encountered in life.]

【And then. 】

【The Prime Minister proposed.】

[Except for the soldiers.]

【Those who are living in poverty or have difficult family circumstances may also be given appropriate assistance. 】

[“Although.”]

[“Our country is now stable and improving.”]

[“Anyone with hands and feet.”]

[“At least I can guarantee that I won’t starve to death, and at least I can find a job that pays in the construction industry.”]

[“But even so, there are still many people who are physically disabled due to natural disasters, man-made disasters, and wars, or because of various problems, they are unable to work and can only rely on the help of their neighbors and pick up the rice ears that others don’t want to live.”]

[“They are also citizens of our Yu country. We should not and cannot ignore them!”]

【This is what the Prime Minister said to Chen Huaixin at the time.】

[Chen Huaixin naturally did not hesitate and agreed directly.]

[Although judging from the situation in Yu Country, it is impossible to completely change the living conditions of this type of people, and we may not even know how many such people there are! ]

[According to the knowledge in his mind, even a country that has developed to that level cannot completely solve this kind of problem, and still needs to continue to work hard. And for their country Yu to want to cure it completely, it is undoubtedly a foolish dream! ]

[“But if we can find one, we’ll help them.”]

[“Even if it’s just a drop in the bucket, at least someone got help!”]

[Chen Huaixin's decision naturally increased the expenditure of the national treasury, but the current national treasury income and the continuous tax revenue from overseas trade made the Minister of Revenue not too worried.]

[Plus, they don’t help everyone. If someone wants to pretend to be poor in this matter, and wants to rely on getting something for nothing, and wants to rely on the support of the court to live, then even if the laws of Yu Kingdom are based on the people, the punishment will also be very severe! ]

【"only."】

[“I will visit the poor people and the disabled soldiers.”]

[“Leave it to… the Crown Prince to handle.”]

[“Isn’t this a little inappropriate?!”]

[The Prime Minister naturally knew Chen Huaixin's arrangement.]

【The manpower and materials that were mobilized. 】

[Of course it's impossible to hide it from him. ]

[As for this eldest prince who inherited the blood of the previous emperor, the court officials had very complicated thoughts. Sometimes, even the Prime Minister thought that the future Crown Prince might not be him! Because without the support of civil officials and military generals, even if His Majesty forced him to do so, it would be difficult to stabilize his position! ]

[But the current arrangement made the Prime Minister somewhat confused. He could probably guess that His Majesty was finally going to train his eldest son.]

[“But no matter how much he trains himself and makes him responsible for the people’s affairs, it won’t help his bloodline problem much, and it won’t solve his own hidden dangers at all!”]

[The Prime Minister frowned.]

[He didn't understand why his Majesty made such an arrangement.]

【But he couldn't possibly go and ask His Majesty the reason.】

【after all.】

【This is a royal thing! 】

[If a minister dares to interfere, he is really courting death! ]

[He could only deal with his own affairs while watching the eldest prince, who was of the previous bloodline, temporarily leave Chang'an City with manpower and supplies in the middle of the month. ] ["Hope."]

[“I hope our Yu Kingdom can truly last for thousands of years!”]

……

After having some guesses in my mind.

Wang Qianhe watched the deduction of the Jiantian Mirror with full concentration.

And when you see.

After Yuguo’s arrangements for the poor people.

He was stunned for a moment, then let out a long sigh.

"The future Yu Kingdom will have enough energy to pay attention to the affairs of the poor people."

“Even if we can help and support, it’s only a small part of what we can see.”

"But at least... this allowed them to survive!"

Wang Qianhe suddenly remembered the ambition he had set when he was a student in his childhood.

We must ensure that all people have enough food to eat! We must ensure that all people have warm clothes to wear! We must ensure that all people have comfortable houses to live in!

But now.

He has been an official for decades.

But there was still no real peace in Chengguo, and people were still starving to death in Chengguo!

"If I hadn't seen what Chen Huaixin did, I would have even forgotten my own ambitions. It's really... ridiculous!"

A look of self-mockery appeared on Wang Qianhe's face.

And at this time, the ministers related to the aristocratic family still wanted to turn black into white, saying that Chen Huaixin's arrangements and the policies of Yu State were buying people's hearts and wasting the country's money and grain!

This made Wang Qianhe angry for the first time, and he scolded with a little more anger in his voice: "Even if it is to buy people's hearts, even if it is to waste the country's money and grain, but there are really people who survived because of this, instead of being frozen to death, starved to death, or oppressed to death like what is happening in my country now!!!"

The words fell.

The ministers looked shocked.

They didn't expect it.

The prime minister, who has been in office for many years and is mature and prudent, good at maintaining good relations with various forces, and at most slightly biased towards Your Majesty, or who is wholeheartedly devoted to serving the country, would actually scold those officials from aristocratic families at a time like this!
"Has he already made the decision to completely side with Your Majesty? This is completely different from the meaning of recognizing Chen Huaixin!"

Many officials opened their eyes wide.

They were thinking hard in their hearts, what kind of political trend this incident represented!

The aristocratic officials who were reprimanded were also confused at this time, because the prime minister's rebuttal and the princesses' argument had completely different meanings!
"Didn't he see that Chen Huaixin's arrangements for his eldest son were a complete mess?"

"He didn't even know how to secure his eldest son's position, and he even planted the hidden danger of the second generation's demise for the Yu Kingdom!"

"Under such circumstances, he still chose Chen Huaixin, who had major flaws? He still continued to recognize Chen Huaixin? He even scolded us for it?!"

"What on earth is he thinking about!"

These officials from aristocratic families didn’t understand either.

Wang Qianhe shouldn't be the kind of person who would stand firm and make his position clear so quickly. His sensitivity to politics is stronger than anyone else!

Even Ji Qingluo's eyes when he looked at the prime minister were a little more confused!
but
Wang Qianhe ignored them.

His eyes were still on the Mirror of Heaven.

Because no one would believe that his sudden rebuttal this time was not based on any political stance, nor was it a choice to support Chen Huaixin, nor was it a choice to side with Ji Qingluo.

He simply saw that his ambitions back then were slowly being realized by Chen Huaixin, but someone slandered and defamed him, which made him angry from the bottom of his heart!
"If I watched the ambitions I set at the beginning being devalued to nothing, but I dared not say a word."

"The me back then, the young me, would definitely feel deeply disappointed with the me now."

　There is still one chapter to go, and I am having a headache...
