Ji Zishu and Xiao Jingmo were both slightly stunned when they heard this, and couldn't help but raise their eyes to look at Chu Wu, who was sitting quietly and still indifferent, and her calm appearance seemed to have no idea how surprising what she said was.

Although Ji Zishu was a little strange why Chu Wu suddenly asked this question, he still said with a gentle face: "If there is a war related to national disasters, then each family with two men must go to one!" If there is only one man or none of them, all you need to do is hand over some money. And some powerful families or families with good family backgrounds, who don't want their children to go to dangerous battlefields, can pay more money in exchange for people! ”

Hearing this, Chu Wu nodded contemplatively, but did not speak.

She knew that Ji Zishu was more subtle, in fact, it meant that the rich and powerful could refuse, and they didn't have to go to the dangerous battlefield where they would die if they were not careful. Although this is very realistic and cruel, the reality is like this, let alone here, and it is not the same in my own time! Therefore, everyone wants to work hard to climb up, sit in the position that can "call the wind and rain", look down on the common people, and look down on the world! It's a pity that there are so many such people.

Ji Zishu looked at Chu Wu and smiled warmly: "Does the princess have any good opinions?" ”

Originally, he just asked casually and respectfully, and he didn't really think that Chu Wu, a weak woman, could have any good way to change this situation, and he didn't mean to underestimate Chu Wu. It's just that I subconsciously think so, after all, those are the people who have been in the officialdom for many years! Just think of a way for a weak woman with a little-known name, wouldn't it seem that those people in the court are eating rice! And even if anyone in the DPRK and China can think of a way to change this situation, no one will agree! Ji Zishu smiled helplessly in his heart.

Chu Wu didn't know that Ji Zishu was thinking so much in her heart, she shrugged her shoulders slightly, and said softly: "The prince also said, there is naturally a way!" It just doesn't have to be! ”

When Ji Zishu heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and his face was a little confused.

Chu Wan said this, Xiao Jingmo turned his head and glanced at her, his enchanting phoenix eyes flashed lightly, his mind turned slightly, and his fingers subconsciously turned the white jade wrench on his thumb, and he did not speak.

"The princess might as well talk about it."

Although Ji Zishu heard Chu Wu say this, he still smiled very patiently and gently.

Ye Ling and Ji Ziyu, who were sitting next to them and couldn't interject, also looked at Chu Wu with curiosity when they heard this.

Chu Wu is not a person of this era, and she is not clear about whether women in this era can discuss national affairs. However, since they all spoke, Chu Wu didn't have to refuse.

And she really didn't think of this problem, but the habit of subconsciously being vigilant for many years still made Chu Yu still be cautious in her heart even at this time.

Her mind turned slightly, and she raised her eyes to look at Ji Zishu who was smiling gently, her eyes flashing slightly.

After thinking about the words in his heart, his lips opened lightly, and he said: "These soldiers sacrificed their lives for their family and the court naturally to have a good explanation to be worthy of the price they paid, and this pension is naturally necessary!"

However, if they can be given better conditions, and when their families can have a better life, then the soldiers will naturally be more careless and have no worries on the battlefield!

If the imperial court can award a martyr's medal symbolizing honor to the wounded soldiers or the dead and soldiers who have made great contributions, and can provide them with some preferential treatment in society and life, it is not as simple as giving out a pension of silver.

For example, families who have been awarded the Medal of Honor for Martyrs are exempted from taxes for five years, and their orphans can enjoy the right to study and learn for three years!

With these two conditions alone, I think there should be very few people who can refuse such a good temptation! ”

Chu Wu's voice was gentle and clear, but there was a hint of fierceness and domineering that could not be ignored.

When everyone heard this, they were slightly surprised.

Ji Ziyu and Ye Ling's eyes widened like ghosts, they took a deep breath, and looked at Chu Wu in shock, their mouths slightly open and a little speechless.

Ji Zishu's beautiful fox eyes lit up, with a hint of horror in his eyes, and the face on his face, which had not changed for a hundred years, was also slightly startled.

Xiao Jingmo's beautiful and seductive phoenix eyes became deeper and deeper, and his deep eyes were also a little surprised.

The four of them were silent for a moment, and they didn't say a word.

Everyone knows that if the two conditions mentioned by Chu Wu can be achieved, then there will definitely be a large number of people who have gone forward and followed each other to pounce on it! Not to mention how tempting it is to pay taxes for just five years, what is even more tempting is that you can provide your children with free reading and learning for three years!

This is something that the vast majority of people dare not imagine! With such conditions, they think it's okay to throw their heads and spill their blood!

Chu Wu knows that the children who can study in this era are either big families, powerful families, or slightly more prosperous families in order to afford the shackles of children's study.

If it weren't for the country's nine-year compulsory education in my time, most people would not have been able to afford to study!

Which of the shackles, the cost of books, paper, ink, pen, inkstone, etc., does not cost money? And which of these things is not expensive?

If the child wants to study, then the family will have one less laborer, and they will have to support him, which is not something that a simple family can afford! It would be good for the vast majority of the people to have enough to eat, especially the people at the bottom of this world!

So, this alone is extremely tempting!

Xiao Jingmo couldn't help but raise his eyes slightly and glanced at Chu Wu, his phoenix eyes flashed slightly, and he was a little surprised in his heart, he didn't know what he thought, he paused, and his thin lips were slightly upturned.

Ji Zishu glanced at Chu Wu seriously, he really didn't expect that Chu Wu would have such family and country feelings and insight as a woman.

He frowned slightly, nodded, and couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "This method is not bad, it's just.... In this way, the imperial court will have to allocate a large amount of silver, as well as manpower and material resources. The formulation and implementation of a series of rules are still very cumbersome and complex. Those people in the DPRK and China will not agree easily! ”

Ji Zishu said and raised his eyes to glance at Xiao Jingmo, who was looking at Chu Wu next to him with his phoenix eyes hanging down.

Ji Zishu naturally knew that the conditions that Chu Wu said would make the people more tempted, and just the exemption from the shackles for three years would make many people fight to sign up.

After all, you can read for those poor children this is the only way out and the glory of their ancestors, even if it is only three years of reading books can far surpass their peers, after all, there are fewer literate people in this era, and the apprentices who do a bookkeeper are more productive and can learn a craft, after all, the bookkeeper is still very popular in this era, and literate people are easier to get opportunities, not to mention exempt from taxes for five years!

It is impossible for the imperial court to think about these conditions, after all, everyone knows that this is too unrealistic!

Even if someone thinks of giving the people such conditions, no one will agree to it, and there are too many interests involved!

The relationship between the court is complicated, and it often affects the whole body, and the more preferential treatment is given to the people, then the interests of the powerful families are less!

Ji Zishu frowned slightly, and the beautiful fox had some contemplation in his eyes.

Seeing that Ji Zishu was frowning and knew what he was thinking, Chu Wu nodded and said softly: "Indeed, such conditions are difficult to do, and it is useless to talk about it no matter how fanciful it is!" However, the premise is that while the people enjoy such preferential treatment, they also have to fulfill the corresponding obligations! ”

Chu Wu knew that it would be difficult to do this, but if it was of great interest to the imperial court, the imperial court would not give up.

What's more, she thought, as long as Xiao Jingmo agreed, it wouldn't be impossible!

Even if the people of some factions in the court disagree, as long as Xiao Jingmo and Emperor Yongchang force the order, they will be helpless even if they don't agree! The main thing is to see if Xiao Jingmo and Emperor Yongchang can understand the benefits!

However, she only suggested and didn't force it, of course she couldn't force it, anyway, it had nothing to do with her, the rest was up to their own decisions!

Xiao Jingmo raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Yu seriously, with some surprise and faint doubt in his narrow phoenix eyes.

Thin lips lightly said, "Oh? Obligation? What obligations? ”

Chu Wu glanced at his handsome face like a demon, and accidentally met his beautiful but sharp phoenix eyes, and she could almost see the bottom of people's hearts at a glance.

The two glanced at each other, Chu Wu was slightly stunned, hiding her suddenly beating heart, her eyes blinked slightly, and she turned her head and continued calmly:

As the saying goes, "Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while." "Some soldiers in the barracks who were unable to move because of their injuries or who were old and had no labor force had to be sent home.

But the barracks need blood, and often the barracks do not have the required quantity and quality each time they admit people.

If there is a war and there are not enough soldiers, it is necessary to call all the young men!

As a result, the imperial court had to invest a lot of money and manpower to raise equipment, food, and grass, as well as spend time training new soldiers! ”

When Ji Zishu heard this, he nodded approvingly, a little surprised that a woman in Chu Wu actually knew so much about these things, not that he looked down on women, but that most women learned about these things from the bottom of their hearts, and they were more concerned about rouge gouache, clothes, jewelry, or piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and how to ..... However, this is what a normal woman should care about!

Ji Zishu couldn't help but complain in his heart, came back to his senses, smiled helplessly, and then echoed: "It's true!" ”

Chu Wu smiled: "There is a way to change this drawback, it's just.... It's going to be a little tricky! ”

Chu Wan said and glanced at Xiao Jingmo with a slight pause.

Xiao Jingmo looked at Chu Yu's apricot eyes that seemed to have autumn water, and thought of the eyes that had been a little panicked when this person looked at him just now, although it was only for a moment.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingmo's phoenix eyes bent slightly, and his sword eyebrows raised slightly: "Let's hear it!" ”

Only then did Chu Wan continue:

"The court may issue a decree that every man shall be in good health and of basic height when he reaches the age of majority.

Must go to the barracks for two to three years of military service, including the big families! No exceptions!

But not every adult man can serve in the military, it must go through a strict screening, which requires not only good health, enough height and a clean family background, but also those who commit adultery are not allowed to serve in the military! And so on and so forth.

Every year, a number of people who meet the requirements are admitted, and they can retire and return to their hometowns after three years, and they also enjoy some basic preferential treatment for soldiers!

For example, they are exempt from paying taxes at home during their military service.

In this way, for a long time, round by round, fresh blood will pour into the military camps everywhere every year, and the imperial court is not afraid that when the war comes, the newly recruited recruits will be in a hurry and will spend time training, and the effect is not significant.

Three years is enough time to develop a lifelong habit for everyone, and these people who have completed their military service will not change in any way.

In the army, they can become strong and agile enough, and can cultivate their good hard-working spirit, strong will and strong sense of responsibility!

In the army, even if they retire, they will still have reservations, and in the event of war, these people will be the second batch of combat readiness resources, and they will be able to take up arms and move forward bravely as soon as they enter the field!

The three years of training they have received are enough to affect their lives, and under the influence of the concept of three years in the army, they will subconsciously form heroes whose existence is to defend their homeland and protect their territory! Even death is an honor! For the soldiers, there is no such thing as betrayal!

The imperial court does not have to worry about spending a lot of time and energy on recruiting soldiers and training new soldiers when war comes, because these people are soldiers! If there is a war, it will be recalled! ”

Chu Wu said lightly, her voice was clear and infectious, and her tenacious tone contained an inexplicable majesty and domineering, which made people involuntarily hold their breath and listen carefully.

Especially the last sentence "If there is a war, the recall will be returned!" "Sonorous and powerful, as if she is the soldier, the soldier who guards the land and is not afraid of sacrifice! Very inspiring!

The two brothers, Ji Zishu and Ji Ziyu, were a little shocked on their faces, of course they knew how beneficial Chu Wu was to the imperial court!

Especially her last sentence, if they were just a little surprised by Chu Wu before, then now they are admired from the heart!

Don't say that a weak woman, even a man may not have this heart. The woman who can say such a sentence must be an extremely feminine person with a clear heart!

But what surprised them even more was why no one in so many officials in the court thought of such a simple method, but it was proposed by a weak woman?

The two of them were stunned for a while, and Ji Ziyu couldn't help but feel more and more shocked and admired by Chu Wu in his heart, and his eyes were even more surprised when he looked at Chu Wu.

Ji Zishu's beautiful fox eyes were also a little excited, and he was more and more surprised and unable to see through Chu Wu in his heart, but he was more admired.

The temptation is great, but in the same way, the pay-off is also corresponding.

Ji Zishu's excited heart slowly calmed down, his eyes drooped slightly, and he thought quietly.

Xiao Jingmo's demonic phoenix eyes also lit up slightly, and there was some shock in his deep eyes.

He felt more and more that he couldn't see through Chu Ao, and he was even more and more curious about who Chu Auntie was? She shocked him more and more time again, this kind of insight is more than a woman should have, it can be said that the sister-in-law Empress Zhaode, who has always admired and respected him, does not have this kind of insight, or all the people in this world! Chu Wu is even more far-sighted than some officials in the DPRK and China who have invaded officialdom for more than ten years!

The last sentence alone was shocking, "If there is a war, the recall will be returned!" Xiao Jingmo's thin lips moved slightly, and he murmured slowly and silently, and his narrow phoenix eyes became more and more incomprehensible and deep.

Ji Ziyu pondered Chu Yuan's words with a serious face, he naturally knew how much impact Chu Yuan's method had on the people and the imperial court! It's just that what he didn't know was that it was actually said by a woman!

Ji Ziyu exclaimed sincerely: "Princess, you are so amazing! Why didn't I think of it? Clearly... Something that can be solved so simply! ”

Even Ye Ling, who hadn't reacted yet, looked at Chu Wu in shock, her round eyes became brighter and brighter when she saw Chu Wu, although she didn't understand what Chu Wu said, but she intuitively felt that Chu Wu was right!

Hearing this, Chu Wu raised her eyes and glanced at Ji Ziyu, who was amazed, shook her head, and said with a slight smile: "This is not simple, it's just that it sounds easy for you." ”

Ji Zishu sighed and said helplessly: "Indeed, what the princess said is right, this is not simple, and it is not so easy!" If you want to reach the kind of situation where the adult men of the Manchu country are all war resources, it is not possible to achieve it in a short time and a half, not to mention.... Today's court is not suitable! It's tempting advice, though, isn't it? Amo. ”

The corners of Ji Zishu's mouth curved slightly, looked at Xiao Jingmo and said with a smile.

Xiao Jingmo's thin lips opened lightly, and said with a smile: "Naturally, you can keep it first, and wait for some annoying things to be cleared, which is feasible." ”

Although Xiao Jingmo said with a smile, his voice sounded clear and very magnetic, but his tone contained a faint fierceness and murderous intent, which made people feel inexplicably cold in their hearts.

After a pause, he said lightly: "This proposal is good, you can prepare this matter!" Although it is not yet possible, it can still be planned in advance, and if you are not sure, you can ask the princess. ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyes and looked at Chu Wu, his sword eyebrows were slightly raised, his narrow phoenix eyes had a hint of a smile, and his eyes were as cold as green bamboo, but the strange thing was that Chu Wu actually saw a trace of warmth hidden in them.

Xiao Jingmo leaned towards Chu Wu and said, "What does the princess think?" Well? The voice is as deep as fermented wine, which is very tempting, and a gentle "Huh?" "Low and magnetic, it makes people shudder.

Chu Wu felt that her ears were a little numb, she controlled her slightly chaotic mind, smiled slightly, two small pear vortices loomed on her lips, and said in a clear voice: "It's okay, if there is anything you don't understand about military service, you can come and ask me!" ”

As she spoke, Chu Wu turned her head to look at Xiao Jingmo, gritted her teeth with a smile on her face, and said, "As long as the prince doesn't think that the concubines are talking nonsense and disturbing people's hearts, Chu Wu naturally knows everything and says everything!" ”

Xiao Jingmo's thin lips were slightly curved, and he naturally knew what Chu Wu was thinking, and he was angry that he didn't believe her before.

He raised his hand and wiped the corners of Chu Wu's mouth that was still stained with a drop of water, his phoenix eyes smiled, and he looked at Chu Wu with a doting look and said, "How could it be!" Everything the princess said was right! ”

“......”

Chu Wu's body suddenly stiffened, looking at Xiao Jingmo's smile, she couldn't help but feel a little hairy, although his smile was very beautiful and seductive, but Chu Wu was used to his cold and unmoved appearance, and she couldn't adapt for a while, even if she knew that this man had committed bad taste again, she couldn't stand the hair in her heart.
