Chapter 779: Meet Cai Ziwei again
After deciding to go to Chunnan City to have a look, Lu Chensheng directly instructed Gu Zhifang to get ready, and set off with his three wives the next day.
Maybe I haven't been out for a long time, but it's appropriate to go out for a walk this time.
By the way, Lu Chensheng wanted to see what the situation was like in various places after he had been governing for so long.
Lu Chensheng was preparing to travel here, and directly kept Gu Zhifang busy, and Jinyi Wei directly mobilized all the masters and prepared to escort him all the way.
It was the Yunsong Daoist of the Star Appreciation Division, who was invited out by him.
Although the queen is a master at the grandmaster level, this kind of master will not be too much when the saint and the prince are traveling together.
Daoist Yunsong basically stayed in the Taoist temple, and when he heard the news that the Holy Lord was going to travel, he responded directly.
Now that the Xinghan Empire is thriving, there must be no accidents in the Holy Heavens.
This also shows that there is no problem with the stars he has seen so far.
This time the dynasty will be countless times stronger than ever!
This is the conclusion that Daoist Yun Song came to when he looked at the bright purple microstar.
In addition to the escort of Jinyiwei, there are thousands of elites.
It was not easy for soldiers and horses to travel, and Lu Chensheng did not ask for too many elites.
Gu Zhifang, who was originally in charge of this part, disagreed, and only brought a few thousand elites.
This is somewhat dangerous.
It's just that Lu Chensheng didn't feel that there was too much danger, and it goes without saying that Wei has been in various places for so long, but anyone who has rebelled has already been found out.
And the generals and soldiers from all over the country say that they have a unique heart, which is completely impossible.
After all, he sent a lot of people to the army to instill some ideas in the soldiers.
In this way, the possibility of saying that the generals will rebel has also been reduced a lot, and it is basically impossible.
Gu Zhifang saw that the saint had arranged it like this, and he could only agree to come down and bring thousands of elites.
The officials of the Manchu Dynasty still had a lot of opponents of this matter, so they persuaded the Holy One not to move and wanted to follow, but the Holy One did not agree.
Roughly speaking, it is already troublesome to bring so many soldiers, and with the addition of these hundred officials, it will only be even more troublesome.
Such words reached the ears of the ministers, and the ministers could not cry or laugh.
The saint really didn't give any face, and bluntly said that it was too troublesome to take them.
For this thing? The ministers also have no way? can only send the saint out of Xinghan City.
"It's so icy and snowy, it's good for Bai Yi to be together? You two are also here to join in the fun. ”
Lu Chensheng sitting in the carriage? Looking at Qiong Yue and Lin Yu on the left and right, he was quite helpless.
Hearing the rain in the rain? Immediately, he said a little coquettishly, "Husband doesn't want to spoil Sister Bai Yi alone?" That's why you want to get out of the palace? Don't you take Sister Qiongyue and her concubine with you? ”
When Lu Chensheng heard this, he looked at Qiong Yue's glances, and immediately stopped talking.
Is that what he meant? Isn't it that seeing that the weather is relatively cold, I am afraid that the two of them will freeze?
But relatively speaking? Lu Chensheng is still worried about the rain? Qiong Yue is also a grandmaster, so this bit of cold is not taken into account.
"Husband, I'm afraid you're freezing, my sister is better, sister, your body is relatively weak."
Bai Yi listened to this, Rao was born as a military general? Still blushing with shame, he defended himself on the side.
Lin Yu immediately replied with a smile?" Sister is okay, this mink cloak is extremely warm? After putting it on, the weather is still helpless. ”
Hearing Lin Yu say this, Bai Yi could only nod.
Lu Chensheng opened the curtain on the side? Look out of the mountain.
Where do you see it? It's all white? There was not a single bird in the sky.
"I haven't come out for a long time, and when the time comes, I don't know how the people everywhere are doing, so it's better not to freeze to death in such weather."
Lu Chensheng looked at the weather and couldn't help muttering.
It's cold, and if you don't have a thick quilt at home, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well at night.
"It is indeed a blessing for the people that the Holy One cares for the people!"
Daoist Yunsong rode a horse on the side, touched his beard and smiled when he heard this.
There was a light snow outside, but none of these snowflakes fell on Daoist Yunsong's body, which was a little strange.
"Those who are the monarchs of the country should worry about the country and the people."
Lu Chensheng replied, only taking this matter for granted.
Daoist Yun Song shook his head, there have always been so many faint monarchs, who don't know this truth, it's just that none of them have done this.
The convoy went all the way, and because Lu Chensheng strictly ordered someone to notify him, the prefects of the county orders in various places did not know that the one in the palace had sneaked out.
When the convoy came to the city of Vertical Frontier, the prefect heard the news and hurried to meet the saint.
The officials of the prefect were all tremblingly waiting for the summons of the saint, and they wondered in their hearts.
In such weather, why did the saint slip out of the palace, and the officials and historians watched it like this?
A moment later, Lu Chensheng summoned them.
Living in the prefect's vacated mansion, Lu Chensheng felt a little uncomfortable, the palace has lived for a long time, and it is indeed not very comfortable to live in this outside place.
"When I first entered the city, I saw a lot of beggars begging on the street, what happened?"
Lu Chensheng didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly.
When he entered the city, he got out of the carriage and looked around, wanting to see what was going on in the city of the pendulum.
To say that this vertical border city is very close to this star Han City, and there is no less care of this place in terms of policy.
The same is true of the Hubu side, Xinghan City is so prosperous, but the surrounding cities are dilapidated, what is the matter if it is extremely unprosperous?
Moreover, after the trade of Xinghan City began, it was still very simple to drive several surrounding cities.
It's just that when he just entered the city, Lu Chensheng still saw a begging person, which made Lu Chensheng a little dissatisfied.
When several officials on the side heard this question, they immediately stared at each other.
Isn't it normal for people to beg?
Even if it's a prosperous age, it's normal for some people to beg, right?
When the prefect heard this, he was sweating profusely, and replied cautiously, "Back to the saints, they are all homeless people, so they can only rely on begging to survive." ”
Lu Chensheng's face turned cold, "I look at those begging people, but they all have hands and feet, and now it's not difficult to eat a bite of food, right?" The fields can be cultivated for free, the tools for cultivation can be borrowed, and the price of seeds is not high.
Even if you don't farm, there are many workshops in the city, so it's hard to find a workshop to fill your stomach? Or is it that there are no such workshops in the city and no free arable land? ”
Hearing this, the prefect's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly said.
"The Holy Clearing, there are a lot of good fields in the vertical border city that can be cultivated, according to the meaning of the Holy Lord, when farming, the good land is given priority to the people, and the acres of land that the gentry can receive are less than three acres, and the Holy Clearing!"
The prefect was frightened, only because the saint thought that he had given the good land to some powerful people privately, resulting in the people having no good land to use.
When Lu Chensheng heard this, he looked towards Gu Zhifang.
Seeing this, Gu Zhifang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Holy Lord, according to the report from the city's unspoken guards, what the prefect said is the truth. ”
Lu Chensheng's face softened a little, he really had such suspicions.
I guessed it wrong.
When the prefect heard this, he immediately wiped a cold sweat, fortunately!
He hasn't made any small moves in his reign all these years, otherwise I'm afraid it would be his death today.
Lu Chensheng groaned and knocked on the table, "No matter what, there is really something wrong with these begging people, why can't they sell their own strength if they have hands and feet?" Do you have to think about getting something for nothing? ”
The prefect naturally didn't dare to object to anything, and nodded again and again when he heard this.
"Except for those who are physically disabled, anyone who sees a begging person is forced to let them have a livelihood, if they can't stand the hardship and run away, just catch it and go to mining!"
Lu Chensheng thought about it and ordered directly.
It's not that he thinks that there are begging people who will lose the face of the Xinghan Empire or anything, it's just that he is dissatisfied when he sees that the other party is lazy and just thinks about getting something for nothing.
The hearts of the people should not be kind to such people.
The prefect responded directly, memorized this matter firmly, and prepared to clean up these beggars when he turned around!
There are many workshops in the city, and there are many easy jobs.
Nowadays, there is still a way to sell a person who can eat well.
"It's winter now, and the people in the city have their houses crushed and frozen to death?"
Lu Chensheng asked about the living conditions of the people, and this situation naturally would not exist in Xinghan City.
Because the houses in the city were built little by little by the craftsmen instructed by Lu Chensheng, the houses were still very strong and would not leak.
There's nothing wrong with keeping warm.
The prefect listened to the inquiries and hurriedly answered them one by one, knowing clearly how many households in the city, how many babies were born this year, and how many people had completed their marriages this year.
Lu Chensheng was extremely satisfied when he asked.
He came suddenly, and the other party was able to keep these details in mind, and it was really on the people.
"You have done a very good job, work hard after the spring of next year, if you can keep up with the grain production of the border city during the autumn harvest, the reward of the imperial court will naturally not be missing you."
Lu Chensheng encouraged.
Hearing this, the prefect was immediately moved.
The race of grain production, he naturally knows.
Originally, I had this idea, hoping to receive this reward, but now I feel even more motivated when I listen to the encouragement of the Holy One.
"Please rest assured, the minister will never let the saint down!"
"Well, go down, I'm leaving tomorrow, and I don't have to be restrained by anything, I can do whatever I have to do when I go back, and I don't have to put my mind on me."
Lu Chensheng waved his hand to let the other party leave.
As the prefect of one side, I believe that the other party does not have so much spare work.
The prefect obediently retreated, knowing that the Holy One was leaving tomorrow, and he was relieved in his heart.
The saint stayed here for one more day, and he just felt that the pressure was getting bigger and bigger every day.
The next day, Lu Chensheng left directly without delay.
The prefect sent the saint out of the city, and after seeing that the saint had disappeared for a long time, he slowly left.
In the next journey, basically Lu Chensheng had never entered the city, so as not to make a fuss about the officials from all over the country.
Even if they do, they just wait for some people to go in and have a look.
It wasn't until ten days later that the group finally came to the outside of Chunnan City.
Lu Chensheng got out of the carriage directly, and Qiongyue and the girls also got out of the carriage with him.
Several people were walking forward, and Gu Zhifang and the others were behind, looking around vigilantly.
The captain and others with the soldiers had already gone directly to Chunnan City one step ahead, preparing to take down the defense in Chunnan City and hand it over to themselves, so that they could feel more at ease.
"I don't feel like a big change in Chunnan City this time."
Lu Chensheng walked and looked around, but there was no trace of cement, and it seemed that the road had not been repaired yet.
Originally, Chunnan City was not too rich, and there was a canal in the city, and the road construction delayed and did not come here, but it was also said in the past.
"Naturally, nothing has changed, although a few years have passed, but isn't the city like this?"
Bai Yi likes the way he looks now, but if he changes, he feels a little unrecognizable.
Lu Chensheng smiled and looked at the big river on the side, which was fishing here at that time, and then fell into the water.
"Stop, whoever!"
Lu Chensheng was walking towards the city gate with Qiong Yue and the others, and a loud cheer sounded.
When he turned his head to look, he saw that a sedan chair had been stopped, and it was the Jinyi Guard's people who prevented the other party from approaching the saint.
"Don't be so nervous, let the other party come over."
Lu Chensheng frowned when he looked at this scene, not long after they came here, presumably the other party was not a person who carried out assassination, and in addition to the presence of Yun Songdao, Lu Chensheng directly waved his hand and asked someone to come over.
Gu Zhifang was a little hesitant, but seeing that the saint had a firm expression, he could only let go.
After the sedan chair was released by the brocade guard, it was carried forward again, and stopped on the way, and a woman came out of the sedan chair.
Lu Chensheng subconsciously glanced at it, feeling that this woman was a little familiar.
"Li Gongzi... No, it's Lu Gongzi, it's not right! Is it holy? ”
The woman who came down looked at the group in front of her, and when she saw Lu Chensheng in the middle, she suddenly exclaimed, and then changed her name a few times one after another.
Lu Chensheng listened to the voice, looked at the other party carefully, and suddenly came over.
"Cai Ziwei?"
The other party is one of the three talented women in Chunnan City, and Lu Chensheng suddenly had a little impression.
When Cai Ziwei heard this title, she immediately affirmed that the person in front of her was really a saint now!
Most of her impressions of Lu Chensheng still stay on Li Junfang's identity, and it was a long time before someone said that Li Junfang was actually Lu Chensheng.
Later, Lu Chensheng gradually became famous, and after recruiting troops and horses, he then dominated the world and became today's saint.
When I thought that a talented man in Chunnan City had actually transformed into a saint and directly became a saint, this feeling was really indescribable.
