Chapter 73
Jiang Ruyin was unprepared, although the prince mentioned it a few days ago, but she didn't take it seriously at all, and now that the news came, she was a little at a loss.
The tour will be tomorrow, Jiang Ruyin first handed over the account books to the crown princess, and then handed over these things to the older Qin Liang and Yan Liang people for the time being, according to the instructions of the crown princess.
The housekeepers in the house have been entrusted out, and the most important thing is the two children, Pingning and Brother Rong are only so old, it is okay for her to leave for a day, if this patrol is going to be away for several days, and she is not around when she is crying, how can she not be worried.
In the evening, the two children woke up from a nap, Qingdong brought them snacks, Jiang Ruyin saw the two of them sitting and eating, and shouted Brother Rong, "Mother is going out tomorrow." โ
The two children turned their heads to look at each other, and Ping Ning said crisply, "Where are you going?" โ
Jiang Ruyin walked to the table, picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, "Mother is going out with your father tomorrow, maybe for a few days." โ
Brother Rong glanced at her sister, "Did you mean that my mother won't come back at night?" โ
Jiang Ruyin nodded, she hadn't been separated for more than a day for so long, she was afraid that she would have to leave for several days, and they would not agree, but when Ping Ning heard this, she also nodded, and said to Brother Rong, "Brother, my mother won't come back at night, don't be afraid, I'll sleep with you." โ
Brother Rong looked at Jiang Ruyin, with a look of 'you can rest assured that I will do things', "Mother and father go, I will take care of my sister." โ
"......" Jiang Ruyin was stunned there, and she couldn't react for a while.
Mother Xu on the side smiled, "Miss, don't worry, we have it, the Third Highness and the princess are very sensible, and you can go out with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with peace of mind." โ
Jiang Ruyin watched them continue to eat quietly, she also taught them, they didn't say anything when they ate, they didn't say anything when they slept, but at this time, why did she feel so lost in her heart.
The two children stayed together, because they had company, so there were not so many times when they stuck to her, during this time she was busy with the affairs of the prince's mansion, Pingning and Brother Rong were all by themselves, and when she looked back, they were a lot more independent this time.
Obviously, not long ago, she was lying on the bed pestering the person who had to hug herself, but now she can wave her hand and leave for a few days without crying, Jiang Ruyin's sense of loss, the more she thinks about it, the stronger it becomes, the child she raised, now it's like this, and she won't be able to keep it in the future.
Jiang Ruyin slept with them in the back room at night, Ping Ning had to sleep in the same bed with Brother Rong, for fear that they would catch a cold when they turned over the quilt, the quilts of the two people were covered separately, Ping Ning also stretched out her little hand from under the quilt to pull her brother's hand next door, which showed her sister's demeanor, and comforted Jiang Ruyin at the same time, "Mother, let's sleep, you can go." โ
Jiang Ruyin couldn't cry or laugh, she was so mature at the critical moment, no matter how she looked at it, she felt like she was dreaming, and touched their heads, "Sleep, my mother will be back soon." โโฆ
The next day they left very early, and Jiang Ruyin went to see them in the wing, and they were still sleeping.
came out and told Grandma Sun, Jiang Ruyin took Qingdong and Zixia into the carriage, the coachman took them to the city gate and gathered with the prince's carriage, Qingdong and they stayed in the back car, and Jiang Ruyin followed the prince's carriage.
Jiang Ruyin found that there were very few people on patrol, except for them, the prince brought a few guards, and the total number of people before and after was only **.
As if seeing her doubts, Su Qianyang lifted the curtain and explained, "Approaching the autumn harvest, let's take a look at the situation in various places first, in previous years, some local officials falsely reported grain harvests to show their merits. โ
"Falsely reporting grain harvests, they don't have to pay for it themselves." Jiang Ruyin glanced out the window, and the carriage had already left the city gate for a long time.
"Compared with merit, this bit of silver is nothing, and the personal merits reported to the imperial court are good-looking, and they have the opportunity to be added to the rank of knight." Su Qianyang pointed to the golden field in the distance outside the window, "Forget about the grain harvest, if the grain harvest is not good, the local officials will not report it truthfully, and the court will not know these in time, and the people will suffer." Su Qianyang's face was a little more helpless, there are so many places in the Great Dynasty, there are many officials who do these inspections, but many of them are involved with local officials, so every year because of this, the imperial court does not know and fails to allocate funds, and there will be refugees in winter.
This point was also mentioned to Jiang Ruyin by Old Man Jiang in the past, no matter how effective the means, from the imperial court to the issuance of instructions, the final implementation must be poor, these are unavoidable.
Jiang Ruyin followed what he pointed out, as the carriage went farther and farther, the fields in the distance became closer and closer, and the golden piece looked very pleasing, and her heart moved, and she said, "If the imperial court can't know these things in time because of this, why don't Your Highness set up a point in various places, and the imperial court will directly send people down to manage it, and in case of a bad harvest, this place can also solve the most basic food and clothing problems for the people one step faster than the imperial court." โ
Su Qianyang looked back at her, his eyes were a little more interested, "What if those people colluded with local officials." โ
Jiang Ruyin was a little entangled, and it didn't seem right to open her mouth and not say it, seeing him looking at herself like this, she simply said all her thoughts, "Officials are generally replaced every three years, but most of the local officials' tenures are more than three years, does Your Highness remember the righteous people who came to sign up when they were cold, these people are all on the side of the people, and they can't see the suffering of the people, among them, there are many disciples of the family who go there, and so many people go to the Hanlin Academy every year, in fact, you can let these people go to various places to serve, and they will be changed every year or two years." โ
Young officials will have a stream of enthusiasm, to put it bluntly, they have not experienced the complex and dark baptism in the officialdom, the starting point is still to the people first, one year or even two years, can avoid sitting big, but also can effectively curb the bribery of local officials, the family comes out, a little favor is bound to be unsightly, every year there is a change of people to bribe, local officials can not afford to give this price.
Su Qianyang's eyes flashed with surprise, the method she said coincided with what he thought in his heart, he did mention to the emperor to set up this kind of relief point, but this method also brought many problems, first of all, the problem of official arrangement, followed by the investment of silver, in fact, the latter is the most important point.
Su Qianyang looked at her with interest, Jiang Ruyin regretted it a little after she finished speaking, she used to talk a lot with her grandfather like this, but now in front of the prince, it seems that she has talked too much.
So Jiang Ruyin turned her face away and looked out the window, the carriage had already arrived on the path, and the field was closer to sight.
Halfway, his voice came from his ear, "Why don't you say it?" โ
Jiang Ruyin coughed lightly, turned her head to look at him, and looked sincere, "Your Highness, the concubine is finished." โ
"You said a good solution, but where does this large sum of money come from?" Su Qianyang asked her tone, Jiang Ruyin couldn't avoid his gaze, "This concubine doesn't know." โ
Su Qianyang sat on her back and hugged her waist, Jiang Ruyin leaned back in his arms, and his voice came from above his head, "There is a way, my father mentioned it a few years ago, this family is rich, and the life he lives is comparable to that of the royal family. โ
This is the threat of red/luo/luo, Jiang Ruyin looked stunned, and had the urge to reach out and pinch people, the opinion was put forward by her, so to speak, if the prince really said this to the emperor, the emperor agreed, the Jiang family still has to donate some silver at this rate, and the Jiang family is the head of the donation, then other families must follow suit, the silver is enough, then the Jiang family must not let people spray to death.
Feeling the body in his arms stiffen, Su Qianyang raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, gently picked up a strand of hair on the side of her ear with one hand, rolled it in his hand, pressed his thumb, and then let go, and his tone was very helpless, "It's better for you to continue to talk about what you haven't finished talking about just now." โ
Jiang Ruyin sat up from his arms and turned to look at him, "Then Your Highness, don't laugh at the concubine." โ
Su Qianyang nodded, and Jiang Ruyin said her thoughts, "Now the imperial court attaches great importance to merchants, and the businesses of these families are also approved by the imperial court, and those really rich merchants are not available in Lin'an City, if they can raise the status of merchants, I think they are very willing to take out silver." โ
This idea is very bold, for so many years, officials look down on businessmen, that is, marrying wives and having children, if the official marries a businessman, then the daughter-in-law will not be valued in the husband's family, if the businessman marries an official, even if it is a petty official, then the husband's family is like a tribute bodhisattva for others.
This is a tradition that has been passed down, and no one will feel that it is wrong, even those who are in business feel that they are not able to become officials.
After Jiang Ruyin finished speaking, Su Qianyang just looked at her like this, and did not speak, Jiang Ruyin saw that his expression did not change, and her heart drummed, she just said, she knew very well in her heart, if the traditional thing is changed, it will inevitably cause a huge resistance, and it is immeasurable to implement.
After a long time, Su Qianyang spoke, "Why did you come up with this idea." โ
Jiang Ruyin was a little embarrassed, "I've read a lot of books, just these strange thoughts, Your Highness don't take it to heart, just talk about it casually." โ
As soon as he finished speaking, his voice came from his ear, "You are very smart. โ
Jiang Ruyin raised his head suddenly, and really saw his compliment, the smile on Su Qianyang's face was even worse, he lowered the curtain, leaned back, and pulled her to his side, as if he was just chatting about 'did you eat, what did you eat' just now, closed her eyes and said in a relaxed tone, "Rest for a while, there will be some time." โโฆ
After about an hour, the carriage stopped, and Jiang Ruyin followed him out of the carriage, and in front of him was the gate of a small mansion.
The guards went to knock on the door, and in a few moments someone inside came out and opened the door.
Walking into this quadrangle courtyard, it is still a double-storey attic, and there is nothing special outside, and when she walked in, Jiang Ruyin saw the exquisite courtyard behind the big stone wall.
There is a small fish pond in the middle of the small yard, the center of the fish pond is a rockery, the rockery is lush and green, it looks beautiful, it takes a lot of effort to take care of it, there is also one in the water pavilion of Jiang Jiaxie in such a rockery.
"This town is the most barren of the five or six towns at the same distance from Lin'an City, and there are sixteen villages around, and you will set off to see it after a short rest, and you will stay here for one or two nights." followed into the main house, the installation in it really didn't check at all, Jiang Ruyin looked around, and finally stopped on a cabinet next to the screen, Su Qianyang came over and took a look, reminding her, "There are no changing clothes here, if you don't bring them, let people go out and buy them back." โ
Jiang Ruyin was stunned, looking at his back as he walked out of the house, could it be that it was the first time he had brought the ladies of the Prince's Mansion on patrol?
The author has something to say: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also paid a lot to Yin Yin, but he never expresses it~
I just saw a comment about the pure chat of the quilt, shy~ Actually~ It should be quite normal to cover the quilt pure chat, haha, at least Ryoko understands it this way, otherwise, it is really a song of night and night, and the rhythm of exhaustion is dug ~ cough cough, popular science knowledge, the number of eggs in a woman's life is limited, and it is said that men's tadpoles are also limited, that is, if you use too much in the early stage, it will lead to inadequacy in the later stage o(โฏโกโฐ)o
Ahem, don't talk about it, let's talk about it, and the police uncle is going to invite Ryoko to tea, okay o(โฏโกโฐ)o
You don't need to be excited, please shout three times, Ryoko is her own mother, like a god!!
