Chapter 162: Ministers resigned one after another, her reaction was amazing
The Nangong family and the Xu family mentioned above would still be a little considerate of Luo'er's face as the empress.
Grand Tutor Lan didn't care at all and went straight to the point, "Your Majesty, why did they die after you went there? Your Majesty is from Dongsheng and may not understand that the Queen of the Southern Kingdom cannot dispose of ministers at will. There are gods in the sky of the Ling family, and your Majesty is not someone you can afford to offend."
Luo Er yawned, "God? Isn't it immortal? Oh, the Ling family was killed by ghosts because they killed too many people. It was not me who did it. The swords of the soldiers I brought in were not stained with blood."
"As for the question of who will breed spiritual seeds after the death of the Ling family, don't worry. I have already given the new spiritual seeds to the national teacher. I plan to have her distribute them to the people personally."
Luo Er said with a smile, "By the way, are you all well now? If you are well, then continue to work."
"Your Majesty, we were not paid last month's salary."
Master Lan couldn't help it after all and took the initiative to speak.
Life is really unbearable. All the money I have secretly saved for so many years has to be used to help the poor.
Now, he has no money even from his salary to spend, and he uses all his money to help the people.
In fact, Luo'er and her father did receive salaries, but after they became rich, they gave the salaries to the soldiers and some servants.
But he didn't pay the salaries of those who were always making trouble for him.
"I calculated that you didn't work last month. Since I ascended the throne, you have been working against me.
Before I ascended the throne, weren't you working for me? I don't know whether you were working or not?
So after thinking about it, I always feel that I will not give you this money for the time being. When you really do things for the people and deserve your salary, I will give it to you. "
Luo'er looked at them with a smile.
These words certainly sound like something a baby would say, but they were powerful and resounding.
This little brat never gets angry, but he gives them an unprecedented sense of oppression.
Is this a warning to them?
The ministers felt their blood boiling as they thought that they were also from aristocratic families and had contributed a lot to the court over the years.
Just because he didn't work for these peasants, he didn't get paid, and he didn't know how long the little money in his family could last.
The ministers were so angry that their blood boiled. Grand Tutor Lan said angrily, "Your Majesty, are you planning to stop paying us salaries in the future?"
The ministers were speechless. Now the highest position in the court was controlled by Luo'er.
Financial expenditures are controlled by her father, and Helian Ye is Luo'er's close bodyguard.
Sometimes, he would travel around the entire southern country to inspect the movements of those officials.
It seemed like they had no say in the affairs of the court.
"Correct!"
Luo Er answered very straightforwardly, "People like you who don't do their jobs and only know how to plan for the future of the family all day long, are you worthy of this salary?
You should know that salaries are provided by the people with the hard-earned crops and the money they earn.
But you don’t thank your parents who provide you with food and clothing. Instead, you just sit there and do nothing else. You spend your days thinking about expanding your family’s power and taking root in the imperial court.”
After Luo'er finished scolding, her mood instantly improved and she ate a piece of pear blossom cake in front of everyone.
The ministers had mixed feelings. The empress before had never dared to scold them like this, and Luo'er had never been polite to them at all.
Having been pampered by the imperial court for decades, they had never suffered such humiliation.
They even thought that if the royal family was weaker, they could replace it.
Why is it that the royal family is also a family of divine servants? They are also a family of divine servants, but they have to kowtow and beg the royal family and work for the royal family.
But now, after Luo'er came to power, he directly cut off the gods that the royal family had previously worshipped.
The royal family today is no longer a family of divine servants.
Why should they still work for them?
The current royal family has no way to compete with them. If the major families unite, she will surely die!
No matter how awesome this little guy is, he is just a mortal. So what if he really has some talent?
"In this case, we, your humble servants, have no choice but to retire and return home. I am willing to resign my official position and give way to the most capable people in the world." Grand Tutor Lan knelt down and said with a cold face.
"Hey, are you trying to intimidate me?"
Luo Er took a deep breath and looked at the ministers above as if she was watching a play. "Don't be like this. The next imperial examination has not been held yet, and there is no one available. How about waiting a little longer?"
Master Lan couldn't help but laugh at Luo'er a hundred times in his heart, saying that this girl is smart, but she is really not that smart.
This isn't the way to keep people, right?
Does this mean that if there are suitable people after the imperial examination, then we should start to discipline them?
If things go on like this, who would be willing to stay? I'm afraid all the civil and military officials in the court would have to give up!
Sure enough, after hearing this, not only was Nan Guo disheartened, but even the other old ministers knelt down one after another.
"Your Majesty, we, the old ministers, are willing to retire and return home."
"I am willing to do so."
Luo'er looked around and found that only Prime Minister Changsun Yue was still standing there.
"you……"
Zhang Sunyue was a little anxious. "Your Majesty is still young, and sometimes he said something wrong. You don't have to bother with him. Everyone has retired and returned to their hometowns. How can the court operate then?"
Although Chang Sun Yue didn't like them, he was still a little anxious when he thought that there was no one available in the court.
After all, for such a big country, if all the ministers resigned, it would definitely be in chaos.
Everyone became even more angry when they saw Changsun Yue. They didn't know how this lackey could make the empress like him so much.
"Okay, Prime Minister, stop talking."
Luo Er raised her hand, "You actually want to resign? Write your resignation letter to me now."
Master Lan still thought that Luo'er would keep them, at least now he could use this to control Luo'er.
After all, everyone knows that the imperial court cannot do without people. Once people leave, it will be very difficult to get the imperial court running again.
But I didn't expect that this guy would actually ask them to write a letter of resignation on the spot?
All the ministers had very unhappy expressions on their faces. Damn, is this guy serious?
Or is this method used deliberately to intimidate them?
Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous!
Is the empress playing psychological tactics with them? Does she think they are reluctant to give up this position?
But they didn't know that the Shenshi family didn't need to hold any position in the court.
They have enough divine power and are not ordinary people in the entire South Country, or even the entire continent.
Being able to serve as officials in the court is already a great honor they have given to the imperial court!
Playing psychological tactics, right? Then they will play it well!
Master Lan quickly handed over the letter, and then the six major families behind him followed suit and handed over their letters.
"Okay, come here, tell them to take off their official robes. Also, their houses should be given by the court. Drive them out. Since they are no longer members of the court, drive them all out."
Luo Er looked at them with a smile, but her words were so vicious, "The South Country is so poor that it can't afford to support idle people. They have to make room for others, otherwise where will the new official live when he takes office?"
Hearing this, the ministers raised their heads abruptly, their faces turning red with anger.
If it wasn't for the court session, Luo'er would have laughed to tears. His expression showed that he was really angry with Luo'er.
Now the whole family is on the verge of collapse. And they are taking back the house???
I have seen shameless empresses, but I have never seen such a shameless empress!!
Even the eunuchs around couldn't help but curl their lips. They were really impressed. Your Majesty, please give us a way out so that we can meet again in the future!
