"These national affairs, the prime minister is in charge, there is no need to tell me, an old woman, that I can enjoy my old age in Jinyang, and my wish is fulfilled! The only wish is to watch Yu'er, Zheng'er grow up, and start a family! Empress Dowager Xiao smiled and waved her hand.

"The Empress Dowager will definitely see it. It's just that His Majesty has been building a winter greenhouse recently, and he has no time to come back, and when the spring plowing is finished after the year, the first stage will be almost over, and he can do those things in Jinyang with peace of mind in the future. Zou Yu heard what Empress Dowager Xiao meant, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and explained with a smile.

"Winter greenhouses? What is that? Empress Dowager Xiao asked unexpectedly.

"When the minister was in Liaodong, because of the lack of food, he planted grain in winter! It's just that there was no glass back then, and only straw mats and other objects were used, so there were only a lot of things that could be planted; Now with glass, all grains, vegetables, can be grown, so His Majesty is experimenting so that it can be promoted to the people! Whether it is greenhouse planting or the improvement of grain seeds, it is a matter that is beneficial to the people, and it will definitely go down in history in the future, and it may be able to overshadow the first emperor! Zou Yu explained with a smile.

"Going down in history? Overshadowing the first emperor? What else is the reputation of the first emperor? It is said that the coffin is conclusive! Li Yuan's words will make the first emperor stink for 10,000 years! Empress Dowager Xiao smiled miserably.

"Right and wrong, naturally some descendants commented, in fact, the minister thought that King Yue did the right thing, and the first emperor should be called Emperor Ming." Zou Yu said solemnly.

Yang Guang has three nicknames, one is Li Yuanjia's Yang; One is the Ming of Yang Tongjia, the king of Yue; The other one is Dou Jiandejia's Min.

"Yang - heavy comatose violence", "Ming - heavy work", "Min - heavy sorrow".

As soon as Zou Yu's words came out, Empress Dowager Xiao was very surprised, and asked after a pause: "Do you think the first emperor did nothing wrong?" ”

"The first emperor did things, right and wrong, but the construction of the canal to communicate the north and the south, the holding of the imperial examination to break the monopoly of the family's talents, and the conquest of Liaodong to eliminate a neighbor with the greatest threat, even if the present generation does not benefit, these things are also beneficial for the future! Whoever succeeds you has to accept it. Zou Yu said solemnly.

"Unexpectedly, the first emperor who understands the most is actually a person he has never met! If the first emperor hears your words, he will die without regrets! Looking at the moving and contemplative people around her, Empress Dowager Xiao burst into tears and said gratefully.

"I'm just telling the truth! It is a fact that the first emperor worked hard and lost money, and was anxious for quick success, although many of these things were persecuted and fought by the family! can't hide the fact that the first emperor didn't understand the people! Any emperor who does not understand the hardships of the people cannot be a good emperor. The same is true for officials, which is why I ask that officials, no matter how big or small, must first be grassroots! If you don't become a grassroots official, you can't enter the center! Zou Yu said loudly without concealment.

"The prime minister is wise!" Li Jing, Fang Xuanling and others, who were accompanied, bowed down and saluted.

"The prime minister is busy, so the old woman won't bother!" Empress Dowager Xiao got up and said with a smile.

"Congratulations to the Empress Dowager!"

"In this world, there is you! The first emperor has no regrets! The old woman also supported. After taking two steps, Empress Dowager Xiao stopped and sighed without looking back! With Zou Yu's words today, no matter how good it is, Yang Guang is only half discredited, no matter how much others slander it, it is useless, Yang Guang, the nickname of Emperor Yang of Sui, can be regarded as removed.

This ancient, who regarded death as life, attached more importance to what happened after death than he imagined, which naturally included the reputation after death! Zou Yu commented on Yang Guang in front of so many confidants and generals, which can be regarded as a foregone conclusion! At least in this world, as long as he is not captured by Li Yuan, Yang Guang will not be recorded as Emperor Yang in the history books!

"Congratulations to the prince!" After Empress Dowager Xiao left, Fang Xuanling said with a smile.

"What's the joy? Whether she agrees or not, it's all the same! Zou Yu said indifferently.

"It's different! At least the reputation is much better and more acceptable! Fang Xuanling smiled slightly.

"Fame! Are you talking about the reputation you left behind? That thing wasn't written for posterity by those in power! Zou Yu said disdainfully.

"That's different, even if the history books are revised, there will always be people who remember." Li Jing hesitated for a moment and said.

"History books are also written by people! Naturally, there is the preference of the person who wrote it! After a long time, the people of this world will take it seriously! Even if there are three or five, a handful, how can they know the truth?

Di Xin conquered Dongyi, but the main force in the country was not there, and was destroyed by Zhou; Qin Shi Huang's 300,000 troops guarded the Great Wall, and 600,000 troops guarded South Vietnam! Millions of elites guarded the frontier, and the Emperor of the First Emperor ordered him not to return to the Central Plains, but the remnants of the Six Kingdoms took the opportunity to rebel, and Liu Bang seized the world; Hum! What is the result, Di Xin, the First Emperor is said to be a tyrant! Tell me, is the real situation as recorded in the history books? Zou Yu said dissatisfiedly.

"The subordinates thought that Di Xin was extremely talented, very sensitive, and martial arts, and had the power to drag nine oxen and the power to care for beams and pillars. After ascending the throne, he attached importance to agriculture and mulberry, appointed talents, expanded the territory, and the national strength was at its peak, and finally defeated the divine power with royal power! It's just that he is somewhat similar to the first emperor, eager for quick success, so that he fell short. Fang Xuanling thought for a moment and said.

"Well, it is said that when Xia Shang was in the past, ghosts and gods were especially important! The sacrifices are not only numerous, but also very heavy! Pei Shiqing nodded in agreement.

"It's not about quick success, it's about being forced! Any kind of change will inevitably touch the interests of some people, so it is inevitable that some people will be dissatisfied, which needs to find a way to balance! Zou Yu said lightly.

Just like his collective relocation and the new distribution of land, the family was very worried, and deliberately did not move the land of the Lu family and the Wang family, and of course, did not build water canals and waterwheels for them. As soon as this year's harvest comes, not only the Lu family can't sit still, but those tenants can't sit still, Zou Yu is going to redistribute the land, have his own land, and the tenant who is willing to be someone else's.

Although the family is a little dissatisfied, Zou Yu has made a lot of concessions in business, so they earn more, and Zou Yu usually shows his mouth intentionally or unintentionally, after the world is peaceful, the goods are sold farther and the profits are greater.

According to Fang Xuanling's statistics, almost all the families have handed over the land now, after all, if they don't hand it over, there will be no one to plant it, and there is no share of these excellent seeds, and there will be compensation for handing them over.

To tell the truth, although they have only a small part left, there are also hundreds of acres of fine fields, and according to the new planting method, the income is not much, only the tenants are gone, and this is the problem.

The original house slave was just a subordinate, the existence of a thug, and now there is no way, go farming! This is also an unexpected surprise that has invisibly weakened the family.

Although the Lu family has a big business, but now the talent is divided into two, the big house went to Chang'an with two or four rooms, and the third room took refuge in Zou Yu, and later Zou Yu asked for talents many times, and there were many young people, and there were indeed a lot of talents, but there was no armed force, and the territory was under the rule of Zou Yu, so it was not at the mercy of it.

It is inevitable that some people will be dissatisfied in Zou Yu's words, this is the current family, Pei Shiqing and others understand, but they have not become dissatisfied, after all, this is just like Zou Yu said, the key is balance! Blind suppression, of course, will cause a backlash. Fortunately, Zou Yu has always done a good job in this regard, and he is very willing to let others taste the sweetness, and treats his subordinates very well.
