The most romantic little emperor

Qin Hao laughed loudly. "My Lords, I think what Lord Xie said is very right, but I believe that none of you are such people. Even if there are, they are very few. What do you think, how should I punish these people?"

Xie An and Qin Hao sang the same tune, one with a red face and the other with a white face, using intimidation and threats, which frightened all the civil and military officials in the court and made them say that they were not such people.

Su Zhengfang and Dong Sicheng looked at this situation, closed their eyes slightly, frowned, and immediately felt that the situation was hopeless.

Qin Hao looked at everyone's performance, nodded with satisfaction, and smiled at Xie An, "Xie Aiqing, please continue."

Xie An nodded and continued, "Third, the marriage certificate that Lord Kong mentioned just now, needless to say, after all, this is not the Kong family marrying off their daughter. Whether or not to receive the marriage certificate is a matter between Duke Zhu and Elder Feng, and has nothing to do with us."

"I believe that there will definitely be someone to take care of this for Your Highness. If there is no one to write the marriage certificate, I am not talented, but I think my calligraphy is acceptable. I am willing to help the Crown Prince."

After he said this, there was a burst of laughter in the court and the atmosphere was no longer so tense.

Seeing that everyone had accepted his point of view, Xie An smiled and said, "As for the prince marrying three women at once, this has never happened since the founding of this dynasty, and the law does not clearly state that the prince can marry three women at once."

"But I would like to ask my colleagues, how many years have passed since the founding of this dynasty? How many crown princes have appeared? Isn't it clear in the law that a crown prince cannot marry three women at once?"

"I'm sure most of you here know this, but I still want to tell you that this dynasty has only been established for 27 years. Emperor Taizu has been on the throne for 15 years, and the current emperor Taizong has been on the throne for 12 years."

"Emperor Taizong had many wives and concubines before he became the crown prince, and had several children. But the current crown prince only has two wives and concubines, and still has no children. For the sake of the royal family's eternal rule, what's wrong with the crown prince marrying three girls at once? Anyway, the law doesn't clearly state that the crown prince can't marry three girls at once."

"The above three points are all my sincere opinions. Whether you agree or disagree, I hope my colleagues will think carefully before making a decision."

After Xie An finished speaking, there was silence in the court, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

After a long while, Qin Hao spoke to break the deadlock and said with a smile: "After listening to what Lord Kong and Lord Xie said just now, I think both of them are very reasonable! I am not an unreasonable person. Whether you are against or for it, I will accept it."

"How about this! Let's stand in line and vote. Those who agree stand on the left, and those who disagree stand on the right. But abstentions are not allowed. I will obey the majority."

As soon as these words were spoken, only Xie An, Duke Zhu, Wang Jian and a few others immediately stood on the left, while almost everyone else stood still.

Qin Hao did not urge them either. He sat there calmly, looking at everyone with a relaxed expression. He even picked up the tea bowl on the table and slowly sipped the fragrant tea.

Now, all the pressure fell on Su Zhengfang and Dong Sicheng.

The two thought about it thoughtfully for a moment, then looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

As soon as the two of them moved, a large group of people followed them closely and all stood on the left.

Qin Hao watched their actions coldly, with no surprise or joy on his face. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, but his heart was already burning with rage, and he wished he could drag these people out and shoot them all.

Su Zhengfang and Dong Sicheng looked at Qin Hao sitting there without saying a word, and their previous unhappy mood was slightly comforted and relieved.

Su Zhengfang smiled flatteringly, "Congratulations, Your Highness, on the birth of your beautiful wife."

Dong Sicheng also sent his congratulations, and said with a sinister smile: "Your Highness, when will the wedding be held? We can go to the East Palace to ask for a glass of wine and share in the joyous atmosphere."

Other civil and military officials in the court also offered their congratulations.

Qin Hao's face changed, and he said happily: "My dear ministers, I have decided to get married in three days. I would like to invite all the civil and military officials to the East Palace for a drink. Please do not refuse."

"By the way, it's fine once you've gone, but don't bring any gifts, or I will be unhappy."

All the civil and military officials in the court expressed that they would definitely attend the wedding on the day of the wedding.

The hall was bustling with activity for a moment. All the civil and military officials in the court were having a great time, as if the unpleasant incident just now had never happened.

After a long while, the court finally quieted down.

Qin Hao looked at Su Zhengfang and said with a smile, "Minister Su, how is the Ministry of Revenue preparing for the disaster relief? According to the time, the first batch of food and wages should be almost collected, right?"

Su Zhengfang looked embarrassed, sighed, and said slowly: "Your Highness, you don't know that Lu Yuanshan has been in charge of this matter in the Ministry of Revenue for some time. Who would have thought that in just a few days, he has messed up the Ministry of Revenue. I am also very sad!"

"However, fortunately, Kong Boli is helping me. After two days of hard work, although he has just taken over the mess left by Lu Yuanshan, he has already sorted it out in an orderly manner."

"It's just that he is only the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, but he is also doing the work of the Left Vice Minister. I feel that this is a bit unfair and it's not fair to him."

After saying that, Su Zhengfang looked at Qin Hao helplessly.

Good man, what is Su Zhengfang going to do? Is he going to blatantly ask him to promote Kong Boli to a higher position?

Qin Hao was furious. Damn it, you guys are already in high positions and have great power, but you don’t know how to work for the court. All you do is take advantage of every opportunity and curry favor in officialdom. You are simply a bunch of parasites.

"Your Highness, Kong Boli's ability is obvious to all the civil and military officials in the court. I think he should be reappointed as the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue to relieve your worries." Minister of Rites Wen Qingfeng stood up to speak for Kong Boli.

Dong Sicheng also supported Kong Boli, and stood up and bowed, saying, "Your Highness, Kong Boli was originally the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. This promotion is just a reinstatement of his original position. I believe he will definitely work harder to raise food and money. Please consider it, Your Highness."

Other ministers also advised Qin Hao to reappoint Kong Boli as the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

Su Zhengfang watched all this with satisfaction, and the depression in his heart was swept away. He said proudly in his heart, "You little bastard, you want to fight with me, but you are still a little naive. Even if your father came, he would not be able to do it."

Xie An wanted to speak out to stop it, but it was too late to say anything now. He could only watch Qin Hao being roasted on the fire.
