Chapter 367 I can’t be wrong
The people of the farming nation are the kindest and most honest people in the world.
They love the land and love their hometown.
As long as there are fields to grow food, and rice to fill the stomach, you can live a happy life without causing trouble or rebelling.
No matter what kind of master lives in the imperial city, as long as the fields are still there, you will be satisfied.
Wang Wen ran around and spent most of the day filling the water sources in all four directions.
The artifact fox jumped out.
Although she became an artifact spirit, her own mana did not disappear, and she was often swept away by the power of heaven and earth with Wang Wen, and her cultivation was still improving.
She cast a spell to conjure up the beautiful carriage once woven from countless green branches and leaves.
Expanded more than two or three times.
She flew into the sky with everyone, and stopped almost when she reached the limit of her mana control.
Wang Wen peered into the ground from the inside of the carriage.
The earth lay flat below, and years of drought had turned the ground a single grayish-yellow color.
Today, there are four flowing water sources, spreading and winding in all directions like branches and leaves, like tiny blood vessels extending from the heart.
The land over which the water flows darkens.
Then there was a rush of people.
Bustling like ants, whispering, running around, and clumping together again.
Wang Wen observed the ground from the sky.
People are observed, and people are observed.
There is not much difference between the two sides.
The distance between heaven and earth is only caused by the different environment.
People on earth do not know that there is a group of people watching them in the sky.
Isn’t that the case with the people in the sky, and I don’t know if there is a group of people watching them from farther away.
. . .
sunset.
Imperial Palace.
After the meal, the emperor did not deal with the affairs of the state, but picked up the scroll and flipped through the digestion.
There were close relatives next to him. Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, he mentioned it like a chat: “Your Majesty, no one in the surrounding prefectures has seen His Royal Highness the Second Prince. They seem to have evaporated and disappeared on this day.”
“Disappeared?” The emperor thought for a while, nodded and smiled: “Those all corners of the world like to hide their whereabouts with the tricks of robbers and thieves, but they are actually pretending to be ghosts to deceive children.”
He paused.
He looked up at his confidant, and then said with a change of tone, “But it’s a bit of a skill to be able to hide from your eyes and ears. I’ll call you back to the palace to give me some positions, lest people in the world say that I’m old and ignorant.”
The confidant hurriedly bowed and said, “How can Wei Chen have any eyes or ears, it’s all yours, Your Majesty.”
The emperor smiled noncommittally and continued to flip through the books.
Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, the cronies breathed a sigh of relief and did not dare to continue this topic, and switched to another place without a trace: “Your Majesty really intends to let His Highness be responsible for disaster relief?”
“What do you think?” This time the emperor didn’t raise his head and kept his eyes on the book, as if he saw a wonderful scene.
The cronies bowed their heads: “Wei Chen is stupid and doesn’t know.”
The emperor did not speak.
I read the book silently for a long time.
Finally, he put the book down gently, got up, walked out of the desk and stood by the incense burner.
Looking at the fluttering thin smoke, he said meaningfully: “Since he has spoken, let him do it, so as not to let people say that I am too partial to the prince.”
“Who dares to speak so boldly about the Son of Heaven!” The cronies were filled with indignation: “Wei Chen will go and chop off that person’s head!”
The emperor laughed.
Shaking his head, he patted the shoulder of his cronies.
He picked up the ginseng soup on the table and moistened his throat: “Aiqing has a heart, let them say that I don’t care, and I will be able to prove in the future that I am absolutely right! Who is great and who is mediocre can be seen at a glance. see through!”
“Inevitably, inevitably!” The cronies nodded again and again.
He hesitated for a while.
Carefully, he said, “On the side of the Second Highness, I’m afraid there will be a lot of closed doors this trip. The major prefectures have long been complaining about the famine in recent years, and the remote princes are even more reluctant to listen to the announcement. Now let them open the door. Putting grain in the warehouse… Wei Chen is worried that His Highness will be in danger, do you need to send someone to **** him secretly?”
“No need.” The emperor waved his hand gently: “He is protected by Commander Yun, even if things fail, it will not involve safety, let him go, he will naturally stop after enough setbacks, knowing that things in this world are not as good as he thought. It’s easy, and the attachment to power will also decrease.”
The cronies’ eyes lit up, and they hurriedly saluted and admired: “Your Majesty is wise!”
The emperor laughed again.
There was joy and peace in the hall.
. . .
A large city government office in the west river road.
“Second Highness, it’s not that I don’t want to give you face, it’s true that after many years of disasters, there is no harvest, but you have to keep paying taxes, why don’t you return some of the taxes from the previous two years in the treasury? .”
“Presumptuous! Taxes in the hardest-hit areas have already been reduced or exempted, so don’t fool this king!”
“The severe disaster area is exempted, but the light disaster area has not been exempted. Instead of being exempted, the disaster victims who have fled from the severe disaster area have to be shared. Where can you tell me? No matter how big a city is, it can’t support so many people. Eat horse chews, Your Highness!”
“…”
A certain government office in the northern river.
“If you want food or not, the second prince might as well give the head of this official to His Majesty, and it will be considered a sincere heart.”
“Do you think this king dares not!”
“That’s great, I finally met someone who dared to do it, Second Prince, please do it, I’m grateful!”
“…”
A certain government office on the east side of the river.
“How much will each general take away when they pass by, how can there be any leftover food for each year?”
“Why do you give them what they have! I have never been short of money for the army!”
“Then you have to ask them. In short, the answer I heard is that if the soldiers are hungry, who will protect the people of the country and the country? If the enemy army from the east comes to kill the general, the people in the government office will replace the soldiers and kill the enemy. ?”
“…”
A certain government office in the river on the south side.
“I’m sorry, Your Highness, it’s getting late, and the adults have already gone to bed. Now that the disaster is serious, the adults are leading by example and shrinking their diets. Resting early can save rations. We hope to discuss the opening of the warehouse tomorrow.”
“How dare you shirk the blame for such a major event in the world?”
“His Royal Highness, it seems that this major event that shocked the world has been done for many years. Several adults have resigned. We really can’t do it.”
“…”
Everyone who returned to the sky looked at the young man strangely.
Young people are seen as unbearable.
Lei Ting said irritably: “I’m so **** off! A bunch of courtiers who are ignoring the imperial decree are mad at the king!”
Wang Wen smiled and said to him, “It’s definitely not acceptable for you to come to the door to give orders like this.”
“Then what do you say?” The young man was so angry that he forgot to use honorifics.
If he was replaced by another “superior”, he might be thrown to the ground and smashed into flesh when he was unhappy.
Fortunately, Wang Wen didn’t pay attention to these things~www.readmtl.com~ calmly guided: “You have to think about why they don’t cooperate, and why should they cooperate? What is the benefit for them to open the warehouse and put food?”
“What are the benefits of Lu Zhongjun’s affairs??” The young man’s eyes widened.
“Of course you have to talk about the benefits!” Wang Wen pointed to the ground: “For them, the disaster is unbearable. Now opening the warehouse and releasing food can only be a death. If there are not enough benefits, they will not listen to you at all.”
The young man scolded angrily: “For the sake of the official party, the superiors and the inferiors cannot help the people. They are all selfish and self-serving ministers! According to the king’s will, they have all been cut down and replaced by someone who can handle the affairs!”
Look at this innocent young man.
Wang Wen smiled.
Didn’t explain much to him.
I just said to him: “I have a way to make them willing to work with you, it’s still early, we’ll act all night tonight!”
