Thinking of this, Yuan Kai felt angina pectoris.

It's just a trivial achievement, but if you dare to confer a county magistrate, aren't you afraid that your ancestors' graves will be dug up?

So Yuan Kai glanced back at a person not far behind him.

The man immediately understood and stood up and sang: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask where is Weihai? How high is the prefect Xu?"

Emperor Ling seemed to know that there would be ministers who would come out to ask questions, and he enjoyed the appearance of a group of confused ministers below, which is not often the case.

It's funny to think about it.

Or say that Emperor Ling is not a serious master. He can be sold as small as a county official or as big as three princes and nine ministers. Can you expect him to be a person with a normal brain circuit?

So Emperor Ling laughed loudly and said: "I know that you have some doubts, so I will help you to clear up your doubts. A few days ago, someone recommended Xu Ding to take the Yellow Turban captives wantonly, with evil intentions and a conspiracy."

Speaking of this, Emperor Ling looked at Xu Ding, and Xu Ding's heart skipped a beat. Damn, someone really slandered him, so he couldn't help but look at Yuan Kai's position.

The old guy raised his head, as if nothing happened, completely ignoring Xu Ding.

At this time, Emperor Ling continued: "But I don't believe it, because my great heroes Huang Fusong, Zhu Jun, and Qingzhou Governor Huang Wan all jointly proved Xu Ding's innocence, and I also believe that Xu Ding is a loyal and patriotic person. , Then as expected, Xu Ding lived up to my expectations and sent Donglai's annual report, which listed Donglai's various measures.

One of them is to build water conservancy, reclaim wasteland, and build three county towns in the east and one county town in the south. paid a lot of taxes. "

Speaking of this, Lingdi's eyes swept over everyone in the hall.

Emperor Ling was afraid of poverty when he was a child, and then he was controlled too tightly by the officials and Empress Dowager Dong in the harem.

There is no money in hand, and there is not a drop of oil in the dishes.

Life is miserable, so when I grow up and hold power, I am a super money fan. It is conceivable how eager I am for money.

Xu Ding, who knew this well, was naturally prepared.

For the four newly added counties in Donglai, he bought the official post of county magistrate with money through secret connections, and handed over this year's tax to Emperor Ling.

Can Emperor Ling be unhappy?

This is extra money for nothing.

Xu Ding built the new county by himself, he didn't tell the outside world who would know, but in the end he was so honest and paid back the money to buy it from him. Such a minister is really rare, and he is so considerate.

This is not spending money to buy an official, this is clearly to honor his emperor's old man.

Xu Ding Dong him, so he quite Xu Ding.

He probably decided to take more prisoners and build a few more new counties.

Therefore, Weihai County was granted to Xu Ding very generously.

Left and right don't need to produce their own meat, but they can still get the gratitude of others. Lingdi feels that he has made a lot of money this time, and his bowl is too clever.

boom!

Lingdi's words shocked everyone at once.

It never occurred to him that Xu Ding had cultivated four counties.

This kid has only been in Donglai for less than a year. He wants to fight abroad and suppress powerful families at home. He must be unable to make ends meet and has a lot of debts. As a result, he created four new counties.

What a feat this is.

Everyone knows that they want to build a new county. The investment is astronomical. Not to mention the power of a county, even the average country has to spend a lot of money to build a new county. As a result, the people are full of resentment and curse. one slice.

No wonder Xu Ding wanted to capture the prisoners desperately. It turned out that this kid squeezed the captives to build the city, and it really was to save manpower costs.

Yellow Turban captives are simply free labor, as long as they stutter.

Sure enough, he is an expert.

Awesome Xu Ding.

After everyone figured it out, they couldn't help but suddenly realized that they could still operate in this way. Could it be done in the same way under their own rule in the future? It would be too easy to make political achievements.

What Xu Ding did seemed to open a new window for them, allowing them to see a different scenery.

"Your Majesty, Prefect Xu is indeed very talented in governing the region and marching and fighting, but this is a political achievement, which is against the law of the ancestors." The same person who spoke just now continued to argue.

A great man has no military merits, so Xu Ding set up four new counties, but his military merits were not enough for his military merits to be named county marquis.

We must continue to fight!

Chapter 104

Chapter 1 continues to fight

Emperor Ling hated this guy a little bit.

These guys keep saying that it is the law of the ancestors, isn't it just to restrict him?

Making money by yourself is said to be shaking the foundation of the country, but one by one you are quietly digging the corners of the country, why don't you abide by the laws of your ancestors.

Typically, only state officials are allowed to set fires, but I am not allowed to light lamps.

"Do you think so, too?" Emperor Ling glanced at the guy who spoke just now, and then asked everyone.

Immediately, many officials from the Yuan family's camp ran out and said, "Your Majesty, conferring a knighthood is a major matter for the country, and we must investigate it! The law of the ancestors must not be violated."

Those who came out were all people in important positions. As soon as they came out, the younger brothers below also came to echo.

Immediately more than half of the officials came to persuade him, and the momentum was extremely spectacular.

Emperor Ling looked at Wu Yangyang kneeling a lot, and was very angry in his heart, but he sneered, sat upright, and said indifferently:

"The love ministers are indeed loyal to the country. Yes, these are political achievements, not military achievements, but..."

But what?

Everyone suddenly had a bad premonition. This was the second time Liu Hong had spoken like this today, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and wait for his next words.

Lingdi Liu Hong paused, and whetted everyone's appetite before saying: "However, Xu Ding not only pacified the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Jizhou, but also pacified the overseas islands east of Donglai. , wiped out countless barbarians, and opened up hundreds of miles of land for my great Han."

what?

Xu Ding expanded the territory for hundreds of miles, how could this be possible.

Where is he going to expand the territory in Donglai!

This time everyone was dumbfounded again.
