Chapter 100 Brother, where is the paper you prepared?
As for Feng Jie's behavior, Ying Yuan knew very well that it was not a personal grudge.

Because for people like Feng Jie, any personal grudges can be sacrificed for the sake of interests.

Similarly, any personal convenience must also give way to interests.

Ying Yuan never thought of winning over this person through connections or favors.

Because behind their opposition is not a personal dispute caused by some misunderstanding.

Rather, it is the fundamental conflict of interests caused by different classes that leads to confrontation!

This kind of opposition will never change because of the personal relationship or personal feelings between the two parties.

Ying Yuan represents the Qin royal family and maintains the stability of the entire Qin.

For the stability of Daqin, Ying Yuan must stand with the people and army of Daqin.

As long as these two classes are stable, the Qin Dynasty will be as stable as Mount Tai.

But Feng Jie represents the aristocratic system, and is only a part of it.

This class is born to seek benefits from the people.

Then, the opposition between the two sides is formed, and this fight will only end when one side completely declines and bows its head.

Because of this, Ying Yuan looked towards the Wang father and son without haste.

There was no need for him to leave the stage now. Now was the time for the Wang father and son to perform.

After all, he didn't expect that Feng Jie would use Wang Jian to establish his authority!
The head is very hard!

But I hope his body is as strong as his head!
Wang Ben's eyes almost popped out of his head as he listened to Feng Jie's sarcastic words.

Especially now that he had rolled up his sleeves, the veins on his arms, which were thicker than Feng Jie's calves, were bulging out.

"Mr. Feng, what do you mean by that?"

"Don't you know that if you defend too long, you will lose?"

"The border has long been at loggerheads with the Northern Di. The Northern Di invade almost every other day. Do you think we should just defend it to the death?"

"Do you know how long our border is?"

"Do you know that if we just defend it, the people around us will be slaughtered like pigs and dogs?"

"Mr. Feng, let me be frank. I want this Iron Pagoda!"

Feng Jie looked at Wang Ben's red face and thick neck, and the look as if he was eager to beat someone up, and he felt a little nervous.

He just wanted to make a few noises and criticize the Wang family in order to gain some fame for himself.

As long as he can mess up the other party's business, his reputation will be established.

But this doesn't mean he will be beaten up.

Given Wang Ben's fighting strength, if he attacks in anger, it's not certain whether he can withstand two punches.

He really didn't want to try the taste of that sandbag-sized fist!
However, seeing Wang Ben's anxious look, Feng Jie suddenly thought of a problem.

Why is the Wang family so insistent on the establishment of the Iron Pagoda?
Moreover, the Wang family had just taken out the budget yesterday, and before it had time to be brought to the court for approval, he filed an impeachment.

Why is the Wang family still holding on to it so stubbornly?

What secrets are hidden here?
As for the reasons Wang Ben just mentioned, such as the border situation and the safety of the people, Feng Jie didn't take them to heart at all.

Although Feng Jie is a civil servant, he understands the principle of "one general's success is based on the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers" better than military generals like Wang Ben.

What about the people, what about my subordinates? What do their lives and deaths have to do with me?

Thinking of this, Feng Jie suddenly looked up at Wang Ben.

"Marquis Tongwu, can you explain in detail why the newly formed Iron Pagoda costs more than twice as much as the previous cavalry?" "You know, the national treasury is really stretched to the limit right now."

"It's impossible that the Marquis of Tongwu would force the Internal Affairs Minister Zhili to empty the Qin Dynasty's treasury just because of a word from the general!"

Wang Ben was speechless after hearing this question.

Because the specific situation of the Iron Pagoda had been agreed upon by Ying Yuan and his father to become the top secret of the Qin Dynasty.

In other words, this matter cannot be discussed at the court meeting at all.

Seeing that Wang Ben was hesitating and unable to utter a single word, his old face almost turning purple, Ying Yuan finally spoke.

"Okay, don't worry, Marquis Tongwu, and Censor Feng doesn't need to be so aggressive."

"This matter was sealed by my order!"

"This Iron Pagoda was also established at the suggestion of the general."

"Because it involves military secrets, I won't publicize it in the court."

"As a civil servant, Feng Yushi is not familiar with military affairs and has never been involved in battlefields. It is best for him to stand aside and watch these things!"

Logically speaking, now that Ying Yuan is dead, the matter should have come to an end.

But Feng Jie came here today just to establish his authority!
What's more, since he had already prepared to turn against the Wang family and Ying Yuan's people, his fighting power was at a high level at this moment.

"In reply to your words, sir, although I am only the Secretary of the Central Secretariat and the Supervisory Censor, my position is low and my words are not taken seriously, but my sincere desire to serve the country should not be underestimated."

"I have no selfish motives. I just care about the well-being of the people of our Great Qin."

"After all, the cost of this Iron Pagoda is really too staggering. I hope you will think twice!"

"You are entrusted with a great responsibility by His Majesty. How can you ignore the foundation of the Qin Empire?"

As soon as Feng Jie's righteous words came out, Ying Yuan laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, what Censor Feng said..."

"In fact, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than worrying that the Qin Dynasty's financial resources can't withstand such consumption and can't support future military operations!"

"I think that Censor Feng is not the only one who has this question. I'm afraid other ministers have the same question in their minds, but they just haven't asked it."

"In that case, that's perfect. I've been preparing for something for a while, and it's time to let you know."

At this point, Ying Yuan turned his head and looked at Fusu, the eldest prince of the Qin Dynasty, who had not spoken in the court for several days.

"Brother, please take out the treasure you have hidden for several days and show it to the ministers!"

"That is a huge source of income for our Great Qin in the future. It may also be the source of income for the families behind you, the ministers."

"Since you have already prepared it, why not put it out to air so that the officials can rest assured!"

Ying Yuan's joking words stunned Fusu, and he could only utter one word in the end.

"ah?!!"

Looking at his brother, with whom he had no tacit understanding at all, Ying Yuan sighed in frustration.

Then he reminded listlessly: "Paper!"

Fusu suddenly realized.

"Oh, you mean paper!"

"This matter has indeed been figured out. I was thinking of finding an opportunity to discuss it with you in detail!"

"Sixth brother, do you want to say it at this court meeting?"
