"It's okay, grandpa." An Ran looked at Wei Lin, and said with some sadness on his face: "Wei Lin's father is a ranger, his grandfather is a scattered person, the last three generations of the Wei family are idle Jianghu scholars, even if the Ministry of Rites wants to check, they can't find anything, not to mention that they have been in turmoil all these years~ chaos, just our generation doesn't know how many times we have moved, to be honest, Wei Lin in addition to knowing where his father buried his second uncle, he doesn't even know where his grandfather's grave is, Wei Lin's father was killed before he was born, and he hasn't even worshiped his ancestors with his father, how can he find other ancestors." ”

"Hey, poor child, it's all my Lin family's involvement." Old Man Lin wiped away his tears.

Wei Lin patted the old man Lin, "It's all a family who is involved in whom, my father is also a friend of the teacher, the person who is a confidant dies, I never feel that my father is affected by the teacher, not to mention that the teacher has taken care of our mother and son for more than 30 years, and married his only daughter to me, if it is not for the mother, I am afraid that I Wei Lin will not have the honor of today." ”

"It should." Lin Jie said with tears in his eyes.

Wei Lin squeezed An Ran's hand and smiled at her.

Old Man Lin looked at Yang Liu'er, "Eldest daughter-in-law, your second uncle and I think we should help, what do you mean?" ”

Yang Liu'er saw that her father-in-law and second uncle had agreed, and she didn't have any opinions, after all, she was still willing to take Xue'er to live in this palace, she really regarded Wan'er and Weilin as her own children, which mother didn't want to live with her own children?

Seeing the eldest lady nodding, Wei Lin said: "Okay, then let's decide, as long as I have to wronged the eldest aunt to live with my second uncle to my father's burial place for a few days, and I will pick you up when I go to move the grave with the Ministry of Rites." ”

"What a grievance, it should be." Yang Liuer said.

Xue'er stayed in the palace, Old Man Lin and the three of them went back, Xue'er hadn't seen her father for a long time, and she kept pestering Wei Lin, even Xiao Cen said that she wanted to take her to bathe, and Xue'er asked her father to wash her incense.

An Ran pinched Xue'er's little face and smiled at her and said, "Are you ashamed, such a big person still needs your father to wash you fragrant, do you know that your father is a man?" ”

Xue'er tilted her little head and didn't understand the meaning of her mother's words, "Isn't it okay for a man?" ”

"Of course not, there is a difference between men and women." An Ran smiled and undressed Cher.

"That mother and father are washing incense together." Cher wondered.

"I'm married to your father." An Ran put the stripped Cher into the pool.

"What do husbands and wives do?" Cher asked.

"You'll not know until you grow up."

"Why do you have to grow up to know?"

"Don't be so much, wash the fragrance well." Why is it so difficult for children to answer, Enron can't explain these questions.

"Mother, I know." An Ran wanted to leave, but was stunned by Xue'er's words, turned around and said, "What do you know?" ”

"Mother just wants to occupy her father alone, so she doesn't let Xue'er get close." Xue'er thought about this very seriously.

"You can think whatever you like, people are big ghosts." An Ran rubbed Xue'er's head and smiled.

The Ministry of Rites has been busy recently, worshipping the sky, selecting the mausoleum, moving the grave, this month Lord Yan is so busy that his feet almost do not touch the ground, Wei Lin saw that Lord Yan is hard, so he pressed him to rest for five days, but Lord Yan can not be idle, the emperor did not let him enter the palace to go to the court, so he personally went to the imperial tomb to supervise the work.

The household department received a report from Huainan that there had been rain in Huainan for half a month this year, and the water level of the Huaihe River had risen, flooding countless fields and causing heavy losses to peasant households.

After listening to the report, Wei Lin asked, "Are there any casualties among the people?" ”

Hubu Shangshu replied: "Huainan He is diligent and willing, when the Huai River rises, he often personally inspects, so that the local village is always aware of the water level, a measure of flooding into the village, the villagers will be transferred, there are no casualties, please rest assured." ”

"That's good." Wei Lin breathed a sigh of relief and said: "There is no way to do the rain in the sky, as long as the people are well, the flooding of the farmland is only one season of grain, no hindrance, Lord Li of the military department." ”

"The minister is here." When the squire of the military department saw that the emperor called him, he hurriedly stood up.

"You arrange 20,000 soldiers to go to Huainan to fight the disaster." Wei Lindao.

"Huh? Disaster? Isn't it supposed to provide disaster relief? "It's the first time I've heard that word.

Wei Lin smiled and said: "Fight the disaster first, if Huainan really needs disaster relief, you tell the Lord of Huainan that the court will not ignore the people." ”

"Oh, yes." Lord Li, the squire of the military department, still didn't understand, and said humbly: "Your Majesty, how can you fight the disaster?" ”

"You send the general's soldiers to go, and they will know." Wei Lindao.

Gu Heng said: "Your Majesty, why don't you go to Huainan in person." ”

Wei Lin shook his head, "You are now the king of the southern realm, how can you let the prince go to the disaster fight in person, it is better to leave this matter to the military department." ”

"Lord, the lower officials don't want to shirk responsibility, but it's the first time I've heard the word disaster resistance, it's really a little difficult to understand, I don't know how to start, and please don't blame the prince." Master Li bowed to Gu Heng and said.

Gu Heng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Hey, it's no wonder that Lord Li doesn't understand, when the queen mother talked about disaster resistance, the king, the emperor and the soldiers under him were also confused, but after doing it once, Lord Li understood that the queen mother's disaster resistance was really effective." "Bibi e-book

It turned out to be the idea of the queen's mother, but I don't know what disaster resistance is? Why do you need to use the military department to transfer soldiers?

"Speaking of the Queen." Wei Lin's eyes were full of love, "Yesterday, I chatted with the queen mother, and the queen mother and I suggested that if you want the country to be rich and the people strong, you have to start with people's livelihood and education, I don't know what your opinions are?" ”

"Education?" Except for those from the south, all the ministers in the court were stunned.

"It's the imperial examination." Wei Lin translated.

"Oh." Hubu Shangshu understood and said with a smile: "The words of the queen mother really make my generation not understand, what the queen mother said is extremely true, the people's livelihood is related to the stability of the court, and the achievements of the imperial examination are all major events, but they are just ......"

"Just what?" Wei Lin asked.

"The emperor also knows that our treasury has been emptied by Cui Mao's thief, and these two plans are to use silver." Tobe Shangshu frowned.

In fact, he also wants to show his ability in front of the emperor, but now the household can have a limited amount of silver, even if he has a policy for the people, it also needs a lot of silver to do, so he simply won't say it, with the Ministry of Rites to help the emperor after the throne and then discuss, today the emperor and the queen mentioned the people's livelihood and the imperial examination, although he admires the emperor and the queen for the sake of the people, but it is difficult for the clever woman to cook without rice, even if there is a strategy, it also needs a lot of silver to implement it.

Wei Lin smiled: "Don't worry, the queen has already come up with a plan to fill the treasury." ”

"Oh?" Tobe Shangshu listened attentively.

Then the emperor spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "But the queen didn't tell me, and I don't know what the queen's plan is?" But I can assure you that if the queen says she has a plan, she will be able to do it. ”

"yes." Gu Heng and Du Wenyun didn't have any suspicions at all.

"The minister has also heard about some things about the queen's mother, and I heard that the gunpowder that the emperor led the troops to fight was developed by the queen's mother, I don't know if it's true or not?" Lord Li, the squire of the military department, asked curiously.

"But no, if it weren't for these gunpowder made by the queen's mother, the army in the south and the north of the army, Cui Mao in the south, and the army of 600,000 attacked on both sides, how could the king of the southwest resist the 300,000 army of the army with 60,000 troops? The vitality of the army was greatly damaged, and it was defeated to us in only two months? ”

"That's amazing." When the ministers in the court heard this, they all whispered and discussed.

"I really want to hear about the emperor and the queen in detail." The squire of the military department became more and more interested in the queen's mother.

Remembering the first time he bumped into the queen mother at the palace gate, the playful appearance of the mother has always been imprinted in his mind, it is hard to imagine that such a cute and playful queen mother can develop such a powerful weapon as gunpowder.

"I want to know." Gu Heng put his hand on Master Li's shoulder and said, "Next time you invite me to drink, I'll tell you one by one." ”

"Yes." Master Li agreed very happily.

Chaotang suddenly laughed, and everyone rushed to invite Gu Heng to drink.

Seeing that the ministers were so harmonious, Wei Lin smiled and said: "Then I will go down to the court and let you all go to the bar, Lord Li, the Huainan flood should be done as soon as possible, time waits for no one, reduce losses." ”

"Yes!" Master Li took the order.

"I'll help you." Gu Heng hugged Master Li.

"Okay." Master Li happily sent off the emperor with Gu Heng and went down to the court.

Wei Lin also returned to the Yanyang Palace, and when he saw that Wei Lin had gone down so early today, he asked, "Are you okay today?" ”

"How can it be okay, it's just that the ministers said they wanted to drink, so I asked them to go down to the court earlier to contact the relationship." Wei Lin took off his dragon robe, and Father-in-law Li helped him change into a regular clothes.

"This relationship is good, the ministers can talk together, and there will be no intrigue, and there will be no intrigue in the future."

Gonggong Li said with a smile: "Where can the ministers talk together, it's not that the emperor talked about the queen's mother in the court, which aroused the curiosity of the ministers, so Gu Wangye joked that whoever wants to know will invite him to drink, he is willing to tell everyone about the queen's mother, and the ministers will invite Gu Wangye to drink one by one, and the emperor can only fulfill it." ”

"What's there to be curious about me?" An Ran smiled helplessly.

"My lady is a god, and those ministers learned that the gunpowder was developed by the lady, can you ask Gu Heng one by one?"

"Just ask, it's not an unsightly thing." An Ran said with a smile.

"Yes." Wei Lin laughed, remembered something, and asked: "Lady, the head of the household is just in the court, but you asked me how to raise money to support the people's livelihood, do you have an idea?" ”

"Of course." An Ran had already made up his mind, "Don't we have a troupe?" Train a few more theater troupes, let them go on a national tour, I have calculated, the front row sells for ten taels of silver, the second row sells for nine taels of silver, and so on, directly to the station ticket for 50 yuan, a play, the silver is more than 2,000 taels, if it is calculated according to four theater troupes, it is 8,000 taels of silver a day. ”

"Eight thousand taels of silver a day, won't there be two hundred and ninety-two taels in a year?" Wei Lin was stunned when he heard this.

"A year is too slow, and if I want the household to rebuild the water conservancy, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, everyone has food, and the children have books to read, I can only get five million taels of silver a month."

"How do you get so much money in a month?" Wei Lin asked.

"Simple, sell Treasury bonds." An Ran said with a smile.
