Chapter 158: How can such a person only suffer the people?
Night is approaching, and a waning moon breaks through the clouds and hangs high.
Liuli sat in the courtyard, holding a tea cup and being distracted.
Today's Su Yitong really surprised him so much that he hasn't come back to his senses yet. In his memory, Su Yitong has never been incompetent and virtuous, and she has never matched the throne, but according to his view today, she is very different from before.
Or rather, they're not alone at all.
Liuli was almost shocked by his thoughts, pursed his lips with a wry smile, he looked up at the already dark sky, only to feel that his heart was heavy, and it made it difficult for him to breathe.
The courtyard was quiet and windless, the courtyard gate was wide open, and from time to time someone passed by the door and stuck out their heads to see the situation in the courtyard.
"Childe."
With a "bang", the courtyard door suddenly closed, and a black figure appeared in the courtyard out of thin air.
Liuli tilted her head slightly. "Coming back? Is it done? ”
"That's it." Mohe replied respectfully: "Those who are attached to Lord Shangshu have been eliminated by their subordinates, and in order to avoid complications, their correspondence with Lord Shangshu has also been destroyed by their subordinates. Just ......"
After thinking about it for a while, he said with some unease: "The disaster relief money and food ......"
"Don't look for it." Liuli said: "Now that the crisis in Bianzhou City has been eliminated, it doesn't matter whether the disaster relief money and food can be found. ”
Since the money and food are in Jet Wei's hands, they are also his after all.
"Then we ......" Mohe secretly raised his eyes to look at him, "Do you want to go back to the capital?" ”
"I'm going back." Liuli got up, walked to the corner of the wall and listened to the movement outside, and only after making sure that there was no one said, "It's just not now." ”
"Why?" Mohe was puzzled.
"Su Yitong has come up with a way to restore the prosperity of Bianzhou City in the past, I think...... Stay and see. Qingrun's voice was flat, but Mohe could feel the excitement in his tone.
But he hadn't seen him for two days, and he felt that his son-in-law had changed a lot in some aspects.
"And over there in the capital?"
"Let's go back to the capital." Liuli said: "Let the father-in-law stand still first,"
"Then the general ......" Mohe asked in a low voice, "What if I ask about the son?" ”
Hooking his lips and smiling, Liuli said, "Answer truthfully." ”
Su Yitong slept until the early morning of the second day.
When I woke up, it was already dawn, and the bustling shouts outside the door came in from time to time.
She squinted, pushed the wind wings that were still holding her, and asked in confusion, "What's going on outside?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Feng Feiyi, who was still sleeping with her eyes closed just now, opened her eyes, looked at her, and said lightly: "It's just a group of refugees coming to breed right and wrong." ”
Yes, breed right and wrong.
From the moment he woke up, he already knew what was going on outside, but because the person in his arms slept soundly, he coveted the tenderness that he had so hard to get, so he let the people outside make trouble.
For this reason, Yun Qing, who is also a guard, is in a hurry outside.
Su Yitong drilled into his arms and said casually: "Then let Yunqing find a reason to send them away." ”
After saying this, Su Yitong fell asleep again.
Feng Feiyi looked at her amusementably and helplessly, and only after a long time did he respond: "Okay." ”
Just when Yun Qing was hesitating whether to disturb his master's dream, at this moment, the door opened, and Feng Feiyi's long figure suddenly appeared at the door, only to hear him say lightly: "What, have you forgotten the king's orders?" ”
"It's not ......" When he said this, Yun Qing felt that his heart was about to jump to his throat, and he hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head: "It's the refugees outside who don't want to start work because of the lack of wages." ”
Looking back at the screen behind him, Feng Feiyi's voice suddenly became cold. "Then the leader of the troublemaker will be arrested and sentenced to death."
Capital punishment?
Yun Qing was a little dumbfounded. "But...... Lord, they are just innocent people. ”
"What about the innocent? Don't you understand the truth of killing a hundred people? Glancing at him coldly, Feng Feiyi then turned around and closed the door, and went back to the house to continue to catch up on sleep.
Yun Qing stared at the door for a long time before striding towards the front door.
There were a lot of people making trouble at the entrance of the mansion, and Yun Qing only raised his eyes to see that good guys, densely packed the entire streets and alleys, which scared him.
"My lord, what should I do now?" The official guarding the door next to him walked towards him anxiously and asked.
"What else can I do?" Glancing at him, he said, "Put the person who led the troublemaker into the cell." ”
"Ah......" said the officer, "what if they resist?" ”
"Then he will be punished with death." Gritting his teeth, Yun Qing said cautiously.
"Yes......"
Although the officials were unwilling, they still called a few brothers from the yamen to take them.
As the saying goes, the people don't fight with the officials, but right now, it seems that everything is coming the other way around.
After a while, the servants returned, with a face with a blue nose and swollen face, as abstract as possible.
The corners of Yun Qing's mouth twitched, and he pretended to be confused and asked, "What about people?" ”
The official who took the lead looked at him sadly and said aggrievedly: "Adult, small incompetence." Those refugees are so presumptuous, the little ones ......"
Speaking of this, the officials all bowed their heads at the same time.
Yun Qing also lowered his head, only to feel that the task given by his master was too arduous, and he might not be able to complete it.
"What's going on?"
At this moment, Ruri's voice suddenly came from behind him.
Yun Qing was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly looked back, "Prime Minister, you can count yourself here...... Greeted him with teary eyes, Yun Qing felt for the first time that the Prime Minister was actually very kind.
"Hmm." Liuli bowed his head, squinted at the group of people in front of him, looked at Yun Qing and asked, "What happened?" ”
"That's ......"
Yun Qing explained the ins and outs of the matter to Liuli from beginning to end.
After hearing this, Liuli couldn't help frowning and thinking deeply.
After a long time, he asked in a low voice, "What about Your Majesty?" ”
"Ah......h
Yun Qing met his eyes and replied, "Your Majesty...... Still resting inside. ”
"Haven't you woken up?"
Yun Qing shook his head, three points serious and seven points adulterated: "Prime Minister, you also know, Your Majesty was injured two days ago, and his body is not fully ......" Speaking of this, Yun Qing didn't know how to round up this lie.
After all, the man with the wound in his mouth was lying comfortably under the covers and falling asleep.
"yes, I know." Liuli nodded and said softly: "It's too noisy here, let's gather everyone outside the city." ”
A simple sentence solved all of Yunqing's problems in an instant.
He raised his head happily, saluted Liuli, and led people to evacuate the crowd.
The troublesome refugees were led out of the city by Yunqing, and Liuli, as the only person who could take charge at present, had no choice but to follow the flow of people out of the city.
When the people's hearts are settled, it is already noon when Liuli returns to the yamen.
Su Yitong was busy painting in the hall, and when he saw Liuli coming in, he hurriedly smiled and said, "The prime minister is back?" ”
"Hmm." Liuli nodded, glanced at Feng Feiyi, who was sitting on the side of the hall, and sneered, "The regent is really interested. ”
Taking a sip of tea, Feng Feiyi raised his eyes to look at him, hooked his lips and said with a light smile: "I can't talk about interest, this king is just idle." ”
"You ......"
"It's the prime minister, who disappeared early in the morning, but let His Majesty find it!" There was a bit of banter in his voice, and Feng Feiyi said lightly.
Liuli's face was already iron blue at this time, and when she heard this, her expression couldn't help but ease a little. Hurriedly bowed his hand to Su Yitong and said, "I don't know what Your Majesty has to do to find Weichen?" ”
Su Yitong put down the pen, shook the paper on the desk, and said with a smile: "Na, the topographic map of Bianzhou that I painted, you all have to take a look." ”
"Topographic map of Bianzhou?"
Feng Feiyi and Liuli walked over at the same time, reaching out to grab it.
"Hey! What are you doing? Glaring at the two of them angrily, Su Yitong said: "This is my hard work, I can't help you mess around." As she spoke, she raised her head and commanded outside the door, "Go and call the Jade Prince." ”
"Yes."
Someone answered the door, followed by the sound of footsteps in the distance.
Su Yitong put the paper back on the table, his eyes went up, and he smiled smugly at the two: "Look." ”
"This ......" Liuli glanced at the drawing, suddenly took a deep breath, and said, "Your Majesty is planning to rebuild the entire Bianzhou City?" ”
Although there is a big gap between ancient and modern times, there are still many similarities in terms of architecture, so Feng Feiyi and Liuli can understand what is drawn on the drawings at a glance.
In this regard, Feng Feiyi also expressed consternation. But compared to the astonishment on Liuli's face, he was much calmer.
"Nature." Su Yitong nodded and said, "Since we have decided to restore the former prosperity of Bianzhou City, why do I still want to keep this old site." ”
"Then did Your Majesty ever think that once this place is demolished, the people will have no fixed place to live and sleep on the streets?" Liuli said solemnly.
"Eh......" waved his hand, and Su Yitong said: "I said that I would demolish this place, but I didn't say that I wanted to make the people have nowhere to go." ”
"I have decided that from this day onwards, the people will be exempted from paying taxes."
"Your Majesty is not joking?" Ruri's voice grew colder.
If the people don't have to pay taxes like the imperial court, then the treasury will soon be empty, and if it encounters other countries during this period, I am afraid that it will become the first country in history to be destroyed due to lack of food, grass and money.
"Who was kidding." Su Yitong said word by word: "I know that it will be difficult for me to implement this method when I leave the country, but how do you know that this method is not feasible?" As she spoke, she said: "Now that you are leaving the country, the official style is corrupt, and there is no official virtue, just ask the prime minister, how can such a person know the suffering of the people?" ”
Listening to her words, Ruri fell silent.
Su Yitong is right, now that he has left the country, he is in such a cycle, the officials take pleasure in bullying the people, not to mention knowing the suffering of the people, but they will not let go of any place where they can detect a trace of oil and water. And this is only one percent of the darkness in the dark corner of the court.
What's more, they regard human life as a mustard, and when they are interested, they slaughter people on the street. He knows all of this......
