The Fourth Princess's Gossip System

150

The atmosphere in the meeting hall in front of the Emperor's throne became silent instantly as Zhang Fei was able to silence the Great Minister's mouth. The normally confident and sharp face of the great minister turned red with embarrassment. His eyes widened, reflecting the shock and loss of words before this young girl.

Zhang Fei sternly looked at the great minister with great courage. He was unshaken by the presence of a respected minister and was considered strong in arguing. Instead he showed intelligence and wisdom beyond his years.

All around the hall, the other ministers fell silent and stared in astonishment. They never thought that a young girl could defeat the Great Minister in a sharp debate. Zhang Fei's courage and wisdom had already stirred their hearts and aroused a sense of awe.

No sound was heard other than his own heartbeat which continued to run. The tension in the air felt so intense, as if everyone was holding their breath waiting for the next words. The great minister tried to open his mouth to convey his response, but words choked in his throat. He felt confused and depressed, for failing to answer Zhang Fei's challenge.

Zhang Fei calmly looked at the grand minister, waiting patiently for an unfailing response. His sharp gaze implied an unshakable decision and strength.

Even his own biological father was agape at the sight of how clever this daughter spoke. Why does she not know if her daughter's persona is like this even though at home she is an ordinary girl.

"according to the words of the princess earlier it was an experiment that accidentally succeeded.then should the country thank you?"said the emperor who immediately made the tense atmosphere earlier become stable again.

Yet once zhang fei smiled faintly hearing the words of the emperor. When he will answer, that does not mean that the results have been confirmed and the method will belong to the state.

Hehehe zhang Fei would not easily give up this matter as easily as he handed over the salt method.

"Great emperor, your majesty is truly seen from heaven. This princess really wanted to give up everything for the country If it was really useful for this country. Like the soldier who has donated blood and meat next for the sake of the country this princess will also do the same but unfortunately this princess can not join the war"

At that point, Zhang Fei used his tears filled with onions. Implying if he was really depressed because he could not help the country in terms of fighting to the border.

Even the Emperor was stunned to see this sudden change in situation. Just now he was standing haughtily and confidently as he looked into the eyes of the great minister as they argued.

Now the eyes full of pride were filled with water.

Oh is there a well in those eyes.

"Just like a soldier who has donated blood and meat. For this Princess wine and wine fermentation are also our blood and flesh as things that will be presented before the great emperor. It is truly heartening that the state accepts this surrender"

These words made the Emperor smile widely and he thought whatever happened the end result remained the same.

The grape planting method and the wine fermentation method were already in the grasp.

"But...

Deg.

The Emperor's heart thumped when he heard the word but from his sweet lips. Here the Emperor held his own heart and thought for how long he had never felt the burning adrenaline like now.

This unlucky girl in front of him was really very capable.

"But the emperor's sacrifice made in order to obtain this good result was not done by this princess alone there were so many people who participated without wanting anything in return, for example the tenants in Zhuangzi. they are not even paid a dime. when the fermented wine under go by the country they will not even get paid...

"Daughter, as a good citizen it is appropriate that they sacrifice for the country, especially based on agriculture, it will not make their lives drift like when the soldiers go to war, is not it?"said another minister who thought there must be something this rotten girl wanted.

But the already crying zhang fei instead looked back at him with a stifled cry as if his heart was hurting.

"Mentries, you are honorable people who have never known how difficult the lives of those below are. Try to compare now, if that day they were planting rice and now producing rice they would probably get a few kilograms of rice to survive a few months, but because they so desired sacrifice they preferred to plant a vine"zhang Fei said.

The Emperor nodded his head in understanding but he was still waiting for the end of this conversation.

This sneaky girl might not really seriously give that method to the country. Actually what he wanted.

"what if this benevolent minister donated his 1-year salary to the state. would a benevolent minister still be willing to do so?"

those words made everyone no longer but some people whispered loudly.

"what kind of comparison is that, the princess is a woman who does not know about the economy how can compare the ministers with the farmers who work in the mud?"refute the minister who made other ministers feel that's what they wanted to say.

"minister why can't it be compared? what is different is their status is that of farmers and we are nobles. Besides what's different? our blood is equally red. What we eat together is wheat rice and meat and what we remove is the same is dirt.So where is the difference?"

"Princess of the palace, does the Princess know that what is said is truly against the law?"refute the old eunuch who was shocked to hear this argument.

How could the nobles be equated with the people in that way. Thoughts that should not be heard are even heard from the mouth of a woman.

But zhang fei was not stupid, to argue the matter at length as he did with the prince's uncle at home.

Here he wiped his tears again and looked at the Emperor with a look as if begging for forgiveness.

"Old eunuch, this is the Princess that the princess is referring to. All of us here are civilized people educated people. No need to be equated with low people who eat from the land, but the minister is the one who starts to equate himself with the farmers. This princess is just a reminder of each other's position"

"what is the current minister's salary is one gold coin? for the minister it is nothing even that is not enough to cover the needs of one week. But if any child was given to the farmers growing grapes it would give them life for an entire year.if they lowly people were still willing to share and sacrifice their 1 year life. So why don't we these educated and noble people make a little donation that might not be enough to cover our one-week needs?"

Gleck...

The minister stuttered and retreated one step back. He didn't know exactly what he was saying was actually digging a hole for himself.

Zhang Fei said that they were nobler than those farmers. So why don't they put forward and continue to pay attention to that status instead of taking a year's life away from them for free.

Not only did the Emperor's own ministers not know what to say either.

He no longer spoke of loyalty to the country and worship to the old man, but directly emphasized to the heavens.

Not only was he in the name of glory on behalf of the Emperor but was also based on the ministers present.

If there is a mantri who refuses, it does not mean they admit that they are inferior to the wine farmers though.

Zhang Fei did not want to let the matter go cold but he attacked him directly when the conditions were still hot.

"the noble is the messenger of the god himself. Sent to carry on the majesty of the gods in the eyes of the people. The people believe so much in this so why should we let the people down just based on the not so precious wine?"

Checkmate.

" this princess of the Emperor's palace already understands your intent and purpose. Is there something the princess suggested that "the people" not be disappointed in this Emperor?"

The emperor could only slice his heart hearing the talk of zhang Fei constantly saying about the sky god and so on. He'd better cut the conversation off and cut this conversation off until here.

Just get to the point.

"Great Emperor, this Princess was already thinking carefully before reaching the palace. The emperor was the noblest and had a pure heart, as pure as dew in the morning.When wine could not be planted any more it was likely that they would have to re-bind the waist for 1 full year. give them the ease to be able to live those 1 year without getting hungry and cold in winter" said zhang Fei.

"in addition this Princess also wants to shame herself by asking kindness from the Emperor himself" he added, which made everyone think her request was completely out of bounds.

Later when this issue is taken by the state .There will probably be some rewards given directly to the Princess. Just like when he gave the salt method, didn't he also get a good amount of funds.

What the princess wants now.

The emperor who had no choice was only to interrupt and let the white man speak according to what he thought.

"great emperor, this princess does not dare to lie to your majesty. When this Princess produced salt the Princess until now had to buy salt out there for the sake of the needs of the small palace. Therefore the heart of this Princess became unbalanced, reflecting from past experiences the Princess wanted to hand this to the country voluntarily but still selfish with self-interest"

What this princess said was truly a reality that no one else could cover. It was true that the Princess still bought salt for her personal needs and it was known to the emperor himself.

"when this method was taken as well This princess was still not willing to buy wine out there when this Princess wanted to consume it personally. So with a sense of selfishness and low self-esteem the Princess wanted to ask if the Emperor gave a little advantage to this Princess to enjoy"

As soon as his words ran out some ministers also came forward again by saying something that was not good.

"haha in the end the wolf will show its tail as well"

"your daughter's right minister is good why she's not a man hehehe "

Even the Emperor himself could not keep quiet and said, "do you still want to benefit from the country?"

"Great Emperor, the Emperor knows better than this Princess. This princess has a stupid husband who knows nothing. All day long she only knew how to have fun eating drinks and dressing well. I don't know how the money came. The servants must also be given a suitable salary and clothing. All of that is money. Now all the responsibilities in the small palace are on the shoulders of this Princess. So how could this princess not be selfish"

Well this time it was the turn of Uncle Prince who was stirred by the princess.

It is not good to say the husband is behind his back but all ministers realize it is the truth. Including with the right minister himself who heard that, his face was immediately embarrassed and he did not know where to hide.

Her good and smart daughter is actually married to a stupid man who knows nothing.

But the person sitting on the highest throne only had a bad face when Uncle Prince was mentioned.

It was like the princess was pouring cold water on her own face.The words implied that Uncle Prince was a foolish and poor man as well.

May say he was stupid because it was honest but by saying he was poor...

This directly refers to the emperor himself.

"with such a great responsibility can this Princess ask, two percent only every time the wine fermentation benefits? The prince is stupid but he can actually make children. How can we raise children without money?"he said straightforwardly and without embarrassment.

Hearing that everyone flushed and retreated regularly.

How could those vulgar words be mentioned in a meeting room like this.

The Emperor was also shocked to hear it and rethink whether the girl in front of this was smart or stupid.

Some time ago there was indeed a rumor saying that this stupid prince uncle was actually so strong in the matter.

But that problem, need not also be said in a formal meeting as it is now.

Even the right-hand minister who was initially proud of his talkative daughter now felt, it was better that he wasn't here.

This is so embarrassing.
