The Only Male Emperor in a Female-dominated World

Chapter 189: The Court is Shocked

Afterwards, she personally invited Chen Lingjun to sit on the dragon throne.

"Greetings to His Majesty, Concubine Chen. xn"

"Long live His Majesty! xn"

"May Princess Chen live a thousand years and a thousand years! xN"

The ministers bowed and saluted.

In this world, officials do not need to kneel.

"Flat body."

Huang Wushuang raised her hand and gestured, "Concubine Chen will accompany me to court from now on."

"I've finished speaking, who objects?"

"I object!"

As soon as the words fell, the female scholar-minister Shen Ruzhi stepped out of the team.

"Concubine Chen accompanied His Majesty to court without being formally canonized."

"Such absurd behavior is really against the rule of law of our ancestors."

Huang Wushuang looked indifferent and nodded, "Okay, well said."

"Someone, drag her out and chop her up."

Hey?

Chen Lingjun was a little confused.

Does this mean killing someone?

Would it be too reckless?

The other officials had already understood the situation, and no one stepped forward to plead for mercy.

The guards were dragging Shen Ruzhi further and further away.

Chen Lingjun couldn't bear it any longer and begged for mercy.

"Huang... Your Majesty, Lord Shen's words were unintentional. For the sake of your husband, can you forgive her this time?"

He didn't want someone to be killed because of him on his first day in court.

The title of evil husband and disaster to the country and the people was truly realized.

"Well, since Concubine Chen is begging for mercy, I will forgive you this time."

Huang Wushuang and Yan Han looked at each other and almost couldn't suppress the smile.

Shen Ruzhi bowed and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Concubine Chen."

"Can……"

Before she could finish her words, she was pulled back by an official nearby.

"If you have something to report, you will leave the court if nothing happens."

"I have something to say."

An official stepped forward and said.

"Xianglu City suffered a severe drought a thousand years ago, and the crops were completely destroyed. I hope Your Majesty will allocate money and grain for disaster relief as soon as possible."

Under normal circumstances, Huang Wushuang would only need to say "accurate".

But today is an exception.

"Concubine Chen, what do you think?"

"Ah I?"

Chen Lingjun was surprised.

This is only my first day in court. Is this really appropriate?

"Ahem, just dial it then."

Upon hearing this, the officials were somewhat disappointed.

It seems that Concubine Chen is nothing special.

"But it can't be in vain."

"Oh?"

Huang Wushuang became interested and said, "Tell me about it."

Chen Lingjun continued, "Money and grain must be allocated, but they must be repaid in the future."

“Farmers affected by natural disasters can be temporarily exempted from taxes for the first three years after receiving assistance.”

"We will wait until the farmers' situation stabilizes, and then gradually increase taxes in a targeted manner."

"This will ensure the survival of farmers without causing the court to lose money."

After the words were spoken, silence fell in the court.

Even Yan Han was surprised.

"Great! Why didn't I think of that before?"

"Concubine Chen is truly a deity."

"That's right, it's a great idea."

.........

The officials talked about it and were amazed.

"What if the farmers refuse to pay more taxes?"

Some officials raised questions.

Chen Lingjun smiled and said, "Then restrict their children from taking the imperial examinations and becoming officials in the court."

"I'm sure they won't let a small profit from buying a bald head ruin their children's future."

"If the harvest is bad, we really can't afford to pay taxes."

"You can participate in corvée labor such as building canals and planting trees to pay taxes."

“Isn’t that the best of both worlds?”

In the court, there was total silence; one could hear a pin drop.

If the first part is a big move, the second part is a decisive blow.

The entire policy is perfect from beginning to end.

It not only solved the famine, but also prevented the court from suffering losses.

Huang Wushuang looked at Chen Lingjun who was talking so eloquently, and a fire of evil rose in his belly.

A woman like this really wants to be conquered by other women.
