154. 154: He's stupid

Wu Ying took a deep breath, no longer on the other side, only holding tea and listening to the scholars' remarks.

Most of the scholars are thinking hard about the next link, and there are also many people who have limited self-knowledge and talents, gossiping about things that worry about the people.

"Luohe has been invaded by the Southern Kite Kingdom for many years, and now this barbarian has signed a ten-year truce with our dynasty, and there are more elite soldiers and good generals stationed at the border passes, so the top priority is the flood in the south of the Yangtze River, what do you think?"

Wu Ying pursed her lips, although Yixiang Courtyard was reformed by her, but it was also the first time she came to the front yard, and she didn't know that this place could also be a place for scholars to talk about national affairs.

Qin Yu knocked on the table, and naturally heard the high-minded talk on the other side, but what he was better about was the opinion of the person opposite, "I don't know if Brother Lu has a high opinion about the flooding in Jiangnan?" ”

Wu Ying hesitated again and again, bit her lip, and saw that he would also care about people's livelihood matters, so she knew that he was not an ordinary noble son, or a job in the court, thinking that the question he just asked was also for the benefit of the people, although she was not in the court, she lived in a simple place, after all, she was a person who lived a lifetime, and some things that happened in a few years, she still vaguely remembered, "The floods in the south of the Yangtze River are indeed a trouble, but it is not difficult to deal with them." ”

"Do you have a way?" Qin Yu's tone was filled with disbelief, he had been studying this matter with his uncle for almost half a month, and he couldn't find a solution, he was a childish teenager?

"I think that, judging from today's situation, the main thing is to rectify the government and punish corrupt officials. Although the flood is strict, but the magistrate does not report the good news, and if something happens, he will only ask the court for reinforcements, as the saying goes, far water can not quench the thirst of the near, and so the court sends troops to build a high wall, drainage, only afraid that the flood has been a disaster for a long time, the south of the Yangtze River is rich, every year the court because of the flood, the tax will be reduced accordingly. Let's ask, why is a place rich and the people simple to be flooded all the year round, but it can't be eradicated. ”

"But if the flood is real, the local officials will not be afraid that when the matter is revealed, they will also be punished."

Wu Ying shook her head, she knew it in her previous life, because she had seen her father's friend be investigated by the Qin for embezzlement of disaster relief funds, and dozens of ministers of the DPRK and China were implicated, and several of them were even ministers.

"Since they dare to hide it, it is natural that they have a good relationship between the top and bottom."

"What?" Qin Yu hurriedly asked, although he knew that there must be people in the DPRK and China who formed a party for personal gain, but now he does not hold real power, and some people are still unable to move.

"The sky is high, and the emperor is far away." Wu Ying confessed, "Today's emperor implements benevolent government, but because he lives in the deep palace, he knows too little about the people's feelings, which naturally becomes a reason for those people to take advantage of loopholes." ”

"As for the flooding, it is just caused by the untimely dredging of the river, if we can dig a few more drainage channels in the field and prevent it early, the loss can be minimized." Wu Ying cleared her throat, "And every time there is a flood, there will definitely be an epidemic, and at this time, the local officials have to ask the imperial court for funds and send medicine, but how many of these things are really delivered to the people." ”

"After punishing corrupt officials, as long as everyone works together to dig a canal, why should the people worry about floods every year."

"Why do I ...... What would the emperor have imagined today? Qin Yu almost revealed his identity, and immediately changed his words.

Wu Ying didn't even want to think about it, "Because he's stupid." As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that she was speaking too straight, and hoped that the other party could ignore her unintentional words just now.
