Chapter 175: Thinking hard about countermeasures
When I entered the city, I could still hear the sounds of begging, crying, and scolding from the bustling crowd on the street through the curtain...
Today's capital is full of hungry people fleeing from all over the world. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's just that what awaits them is not the gold and silver that is readily available, and it is impossible to even fill their stomachs.
On the other hand, the nobles in Beijing are still lustful dogs and horses, living freely, not affected by natural disasters at all.
Such a world-apart life, the rich flow of oil, the poor hunger and cold.
It's just birth. Some people are born with fine clothes and fine food, and enjoy endless glory and wealth. Some people are born poor, and even if they try their best, they can only get enough food and clothing.
If we had not seen it, if we had not seen it, if we had not made such a comparison, I am afraid that such resentment would not arise in the hearts of the hungry people.
Hungry people will desperately try to find a way to survive. Just to survive.
The public order in Beijing is getting worse and worse, and there are robberies and thefts from time to time.
Even Fireworks Willow Lane, which has always been the busiest at night, is now deserted by the curfew.
But whoever wants to go out is now followed by a few fierce thugs.
Ye Juan looked at the chaotic street and ordered, "Go to the other garden first." ”
"Master..."Ye Juan shouted a little embarrassed.
Qingyou looked at the dog who was following Ye Xuan with only half of his head exposed, looking curiously.
This is already the first child sent by Ye Juan, I don't know how many children. Hundred? Or more...
Qingyou instructed Uncle Huan to take the dog down to wash and eat.
The dog pulled the corner of Ye Juan's clothes with some fear, and looked at Ye Juan nervously with big eyes bulging because of thinness.
"Fu'an, you come along." Ye Juan commanded, so that the dog calmed down a little and went out.
"Juan'er, do you know how many hungry people there are in the whole of Izumo? How many can you save? He said slowly, with a cold voice, and said without emotion in the posture of a bystander, or like a god on a high level.
"Master, if you can save one, it's one. can only hate Wan'er as a woman, and she can't desperately admonish in the court, begging His Majesty to open the granary to save the people. Ye Juan's tone was helpless, and he said with anger.
Qingyou looked at Ye Wan, whose face was flushed with anger and his breathing was also short, and said: "Your Majesty is now old, and he has a suspicious personality. Do you think that the Manchu Dynasty did not understand people? ”
Ye Wan was speechless, and now Izumo is like an old man who is about to die, and there is no longer half of the Qingming of the prosperous world.
"But, master..."Ye Juan said hatefully.
Qingyou comforted: "Don't worry, wait for the chaos in Beijing to be chaotic again, the chaos will be uncontrollable, and the severity of the disaster can reach the heavens." So ......"
"Just like this, how many innocent people will lose their lives, and how many families will be separated." Ye Juan said in a deep voice.
"Knowing what can you do, it's just adding to your troubles. Sometimes being blind with your eyes open is not necessarily a bad thing. There was a slight emotional fluctuation in Qingyou's words.
Ye Juan didn't know that he was too smart, he lived too transparently, and he was just suffering himself.
"It's just that master, you asked me to pay attention to the school-age children in the refugees and bring them here to hand them over to Uncle Huan, can you make Wan'er why?" Ye Juan asked tentatively, with caution in his words.
She knew that such a thing should not be asked. I just can't suppress my curiosity.
Qingyou lowered his eyes and looked at Ye Juan: "You will know in the future." ”
Ye Juan looked at Qingyou and didn't mean to explain, so he didn't want to ask again.
There was a trace of sadness in his heart, and he told the master everything about himself, but he had a secret and never confessed to her.
Such a one-way dependence made Ye Juan feel uncomfortable. Is she nothing in his heart?
"Dad, are you looking for me?" Ye Juan was called by Ye Fengchun when he returned home.
"Juan'er, this is from outside, only coming back?" Ye Fengchun saw that there was some fine dust on Ye Juan's shoes and asked.
Although Ye Qian was surprised by Ye Fengchun's eyesight, he didn't say anything on his face: "Wan'er, go out and have a look." After speaking, he lowered his eyes and looked sorrowful.
"Oh? What do you see? Ye Fengchun asked.
"It's miserable, hell on earth." Ye Juan said word by word.
Ye Fengchun sighed: "Although I have ordered to go down and exempt the Zhuangzi in the disaster area, it is useless. ”
"Dad is such a good deed, but now that there is a big drought, no matter whether it is free of rent or not, the farmers have no food to pay." Ye Juan replied.
Ye Fengchun didn't know that this was just a superficial effort, just a peace of mind.
"Dad, we also have a lot of grain in the granaries around the country, so it's better to ......," Ye Juan tentatively said.
Ye Fengchun looked at the whimsical Ye Juan. As a businessman, he was prescient, so he bought a lot of grain at a low price early.
Now that the drought is coming as scheduled, Ye Fengchun is a little proud in his heart.
As long as he presses it again, he can earn several times the food in his hand.
This is tantamount to the greatest affirmation for a businessman.
"Nonsense, the girl's hair is long and the knowledge is short. Do you know how many people the entire Ye Mansion has to support? If you don't have money, who will die for you? Ye Fengchun shouted angrily.
"But Dad..."Ye Juan also wanted to convince Ye Fengchun.
Ye Fengchun interrupted him again: "Juan'er, what do you want to say, Daddy knows." It's just that a good heart can't be eaten. Even if we go bankrupt, we may not be able to save everyone. ”
Seeing Ye Fengchun's displeasure, Ye Juan stopped speaking after thinking about it.
"Leave this matter to the imperial court. The world is big, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister," Ye Fengchun looked at Ye Juan's depressed mood and explained.
The master and the father were surprisingly in the same mind. Is it really my own mistake?
After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Juan sorted out his thoughts, there are some things that should be done, no matter what the outcome is, they should be done. In order to live up to the original intention.
"Fu'an, let's go to the princess's mansion." Ye Juan was as busy as a spinning top, and after leaving the study, he went straight to the princess's mansion.
"Miss, slow down. What are you doing in this hurry? Fu'an thrust his waist and gasped.
"A great deal to save people. Do you say you're in a hurry..."Ye Wan replied.
"Sister Juan, why did you suddenly remember to look for me?" Yun Yao looked at Ye Xuan, who was sweating profusely, and asked curiously.
In her impression, Ye Juan has always been a person who pays attention to etiquette. What's going on today?
Ye Juan couldn't help but pull Yun Yao out of his mouth, ignoring Yun Yao's surprised face and said, "Let's talk while walking." ”
"Hey...... You slow down. Yun Yao was dragged and staggered out of the princess's mansion with Ye Wan.
Ye Juan didn't do anything, just dragged Yun Yao to wander around the streets and alleys.
"Why is my sister so interested in pulling me to go shopping today?" Yun Yao looked back and forth.
From time to time, a woman in ragged clothes would come to her with a child waiting to be fed.
A little girl with yellow face and thin muscles was beaten and scolded in order to grab half of the steamed buns that fell to the ground.
There is an old man who is over the age of six, lying weakly in the corner waiting to die.
Yun Yao's eyes gradually appeared with tears, the proud daughter of heaven who was born in the royal family, how could she have ever seen such human suffering.
In her eyes, this is a prosperous era of peace in the world, where everyone is well fed and clothed.
But......
