Chapter 220: The Minister is a Waste
Mu Yan said angrily, unwilling to let her risk her life, on the other hand, he felt that the ministers would only move their mouths, but they had never acted like Rong Xi.
If they could all be like Rong Xi, he wouldn't worry about so many things.
"Your Majesty, the mourning family has never said this, but they just feel that this matter is strange, if it is handed over to someone else, the mourning family is not very relieved, not to mention, as soon as the Tuntian law comes out, it will damage the interests of the ministers, who do you think doesn't care about their own interests?"
She said slowly, looking at Mu Yan.
"I don't agree, if you encounter the same situation outside the palace again, it will be very worrying."
Mu Yan turned his cheeks away, he didn't have to let her negotiate, seeing that he wouldn't agree to her proposal for a while, Rong Xi sighed slightly, very helpless.
If she continues to persuade Mu Yan here, it may be useless in the end.
"Okay, but when the Tuntian Law is implemented, the mourning family will not give up."
She was relieved and sat back in her place, Mu Yan bowed her head to express her understanding, he had not planned to give up the implementation of the Tuntian Law, but now he resisted fiercely.
By the time Mu Yan returned to the Hall of Light, it was already early.
Rong Xi took advantage of this time to leave the palace with the identity of Lu Qi, and let Lu Qi stay in the Furong Hall for a while, until she came back.
"Niangniang, if you are out of the palace, if you are in danger, the slave and maid will not be able to pay for their lives."
Lu Qi looked at her uneasily, but Rong Xi heard her words and patted her arm gently.
"What nonsense? There will be no accident at the mourning family, you hold up for me for a while, and soon the mourning family will come back. ”
After putting on Lu Qi's clothes, Rong Xi finally checked it, and then left the palace, leaving Lu Qi alone to deal with it in the Furong Palace.
Out of the palace, Rong Xi went directly to the suburbs, and the peasants generally built thatched huts not far from the fields for convenience.
As soon as she went to the fields, she was able to find the troublesome peasants.
Coincidentally, she found a horse, and when she just arrived in the suburbs, she met the peasants who had just returned from the palace gate to make trouble.
"Look, is that the current Queen Mother Rongxi?"
The sharp-eyed peasant recognized her identity at once, and Rong Xi dismounted and was about to step forward, but saw them rushing towards him with a fierce momentum.
"Okay, we didn't make trouble, but now we're sending it to the door."
In an instant, Rong Xi was surrounded by a group.
A trace of panic and fear flashed through her heart, how could she not be afraid of being surrounded by so many people?
But for the sake of business, she had to suppress all her fears and face them directly: "Everyone, you speak first. ”
Letting go of all his figures, just to shorten the distance between them, so that they can calm down, listen to her explanation, and then make other decisions.
"Look, we want to see what you have to say."
The peasants are stronger than the other, and they are all the result of years of hard work in the fields, Rong Xi looked around, and saw that they were all hostile.
It seems that there are still people who look around in fear, for fear that it will be a trap, and when an army rushes out and surrounds them.
"You people, you have to force us to death, knowing that we can't survive because of famine, but you still want to reclaim some wasteland, it's a joke."
A peasant began to make fun of them, looking at her sarcastically.
"The reclamation of wasteland is not as bad as you think, this is what we can imagine, and we have done our best for you.
Rong Xi looked at them, pursed his lips, and said firmly.
"Joke!"
The farmer who had just taken the lead laughed, thinking that Rong Xi's words were funny, and he wanted to give their labor for nothing if he worked hard for them.
"Really! Listen to me. Seeing that they didn't believe it, Rong Xi hurriedly explained: "Reclaim the wasteland, although the wasteland belongs to the royal family, but the rent and taxes are only one-tenth of the grain produced, and the rest are all planned by yourself, such good conditions, aren't you tempted at all?" ”
Rong Xi spoke dryly, and once again told the group of farmers about the details of the Tuntian Law little by little, so that they could truly understand the meaning of the Tuntian Law.
She believed that it was not this group of peasants who wanted to make trouble and resist, but someone who wanted to use this group of kind people to stop her tuntian method.
"Really? Is it that good? ”
After hearing Rong Xi's explanation, the peasants glanced at each other, and they all saw a trace of wavering in their eyes.
"Really."
Nodding hurriedly, Rong Xi was afraid that one or two of them would not want to believe it, but this Tuntian Law was established from the beginning to strive for more for the farmers.
The peasants looked at Rong Xi's appearance, not like they were lying: "But the landlords said that you just want to exploit our labor force, and now you say it so well, maybe what will it be like later." ”
They didn't easily listen to Rong Xi's words, Rong Xi said with a dry mouth, which showed that they were still suspicious.
As soon as I heard the word landlord, everything became much clearer, and I think it was the landlords who felt that they had destroyed their interests, which instigated this group of good peasants to rebel.
"It turned out that the landlords said it, but why don't you think about it, they are afraid that after you leave, no one will want to do things under them, so they thought of such a way, so that you can mess up this matter by yourself, and it's a hundred!"
"By the way, if you don't believe it, you can find someone who can read and write, and take a good look at the content on the emperor's list, so that you can know if the mourning family is lying."
Rong Xi said that, the farmers seemed to have figured everything out and believed Rong Xi's words.
They went to Mr. Rang to explain the contents of the Emperor's List, only to find that they had all been deceived by the landlords and became their puppets.
"Damn, this group of landlords actually deceived us in order to protect their own interests."
The peasants were furious, but they felt even more guilty when they thought of their actions outside the palace gate.
didn't find out what was going on at all, so they threw rotten eggs and vegetable leaves at Rong Xi, and they really felt sorry in their hearts.
"Queen Mother, you think so much about us, but we don't understand the situation at all, and we do something like that to you......"
The peasants looked down and reflected, seeing that they had understood the benefits of the Tuntian Method for them, and her heart returned to her stomach, not caring at all about what they were doing, not taking it to heart.
