Chapter 574: Brains are also a good thing
A group of people in the hall were confused.
Generation gap? What is it?
The servant snorted coldly: "Ignorant woman, I don't know what to do!" ”
"Brains are a good thing, Hongu wants you to have them."
Mu Ling glanced at the servant of the ministry idly, his eyes were cold.
The idea of looking down on women is almost ingrained in this era. She doesn't care what others think, but if she says it in front of her, she naturally has to take care of it to feel comfortable.
Liang Chu was originally angry in his heart, and when he heard her words like this, the corners of his lips couldn't help but smile a little.
This little woman is so euphemistic and elegant that she scolds others for having no brains, which is really funny.
Looking at the servant of the ministry again, he could only endure being scolded by Minghuang. If you want to return the price, how do you return the price? He didn't think he had the same eloquence as the concubine.
Seeing that the face of the servant of the ministry was red and blue, Mu Ling's heart was a little more comfortable.
Picking up the rice paper and looking at it, Mu Ling spoke again: "All walks of life should have specific regulations, although it is a retirement law, this palace feels that this system of rest and leave can all be improved and merged together." Not only court officials, but also officials at all levels and officials in important organs should adapt. ”
"Except for court officials and localities, nobles such as vassal kings are not applicable."
Liang Chu sighed lightly and kindly explained to her.
Although she always has such good ideas, she still doesn't understand the situation of the whole Liang, and she will make such mistakes all the time.
Mu Ling shook his head: "Now the border is in turmoil all year round, the situation between the DPRK and China is unstable, and the deficit treasury with wolf ambitions is full of private pockets. And the year before last, natural and man-made disasters were frequent, and the imperial court spent huge amounts of relief. Even if a large amount of taxes can be collected after the autumn harvest, it is a drop in the bucket and cannot be managed for a long time. ”
"This is indeed ...... But what does this have to do with retirement? Liang Chu was puzzled, and seemed to be talking farther and farther.
"Naturally." Mu Ling nodded, "In addition to the official, there should also be a business." The combination of government and business will be more convenient and can better control the lifeline of the country's economy. And these 'merchants' under the control of the imperial court should also belong to the imperial court establishment, and with this retirement law, the same should apply to them. ”
"What the concubine said is ...... Imperial merchants? ”
Liang Chu heard some clues at this time, and his heart was confused and shocked, and he couldn't figure out what it was like.
Mu Ling frowned and shook his head slightly.
It's just that this time, she doesn't plan to say more.
This matter has already involved the basic livelihood issues of the country, and it is not something that she should consider as a concubine. If you talk too much, I'm afraid it will cause fear.
Besides, there are many courtiers watching here, and she doesn't want to be in the limelight like this.
Liang Chu kept an eye on it, and just waited for it to ask later.
At this time, the matter of retirement was almost sorted out, and Liang Chu instructed the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Industry to deliberate again, and submit the final excerpt, and after approval, the Criminal Department would sort out and issue it for implementation.
As for the opposing voices, they were all rejected by Liang Chu.
Soon news came out that the current saint ignored the hard work of the courtiers, just to win the smile of the concubine, and insisted on driving out several old ministers in the court, which caused several old ministers to cry bitterly and be sad when they went to court.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and it didn't take long for the news to reach Mu Ling's ears.
At that time, Cuiyan was dressing up for Mu Ling, but she was also very worried: "Now the Queen Mother is only afraid that she will be angry again, although the harem concubines are almost dismissed, but if the Queen Mother intervenes in it, Niangniang is afraid that she will have to suffer some hardships." ”
"If the Queen Mother counts this year, she should be more than forty, right?"
Mu Ling had a hint of a smile on the corner of his lips, and squinted his eyes slightly to ask Cui Yan.
Cui Yan hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother was born at the age of eighteen, and now she is counting, she has long passed the age of not being confused. ”
"In the retirement law, a man retires at fifty, but a woman only takes forty-five."
Dropping a sentence lightly, Mu Ling stopped arguing.
Speaking of which, the Queen Mother is also a lot of nosy, and she has not given much help to Liang Chu's court over the years, and she has made a lot of trouble in this harem to block Liang Chu.
If the 'Queen Mother' is also a profession, it would be better to retire early.
Realizing what his master meant, Cui Yan's face turned pale, but he didn't dare to say more, so he could only be careful secretly, so he didn't want to mess with the one in Cixi Palace.
After breakfast, Mu Ling led the palace people straight to the imperial study.
Liang Chu has become more and more lazy in the past few days, and at first he just asked her to see the excerpts about the retirement law, but now he can't wait to throw all the excerpts to her.
Every day, Li Muling would go through all the folds, clear out the useless folds, and ask Feng Shou to throw them back, leaving only the folds he picked up to Liang Chu, telling him to make his own decisions.
This business is done like a secretary.
Pushing the door and stepping into the imperial study, Liang Chu had already left the morning court, and when he saw her coming, he hurriedly greeted her: "It's a little late today." ”
"I guess you don't have anything to worry about in the court today, you went down early, right?"
Mu Ling gave him a blank look and sat straight behind the low square table on the other side.
That was where she worked, and there were already stacks of folds on top of it.
After flipping through a few books at random, Mu Ling frowned, and when he got to the back, he simply threw the fold aside and looked at Liang Chu's side.
"How?"
"You don't know what these people have written." Mu Ling's brows were tightly locked, with a little irritability, "Biting the words, the meaning is unknown, Rory wrote one side in a rambling way, but he didn't report anything important, how did you look at these folds in the past?" ”
Forgive her for her low level of education, and she can't see these obscure writing situations.
"It's a waste of time to look at these things."
It turned out that the emperor was busy every day, but he was busy with these things.
Liang Chu rarely saw her complaining like this, and her frowning appearance at this time also looked a little cute, so she couldn't help but chuckle lightly, and hugged the person in her arms to comfort her.
"According to Aling's meaning, how should I deal with it?"
"If I didn't do this before, do you want to see so much?" Mu Ling pointed to the stacks of folds.
Liang Chu nodded noncommittally, these excerpts are all government affairs, so naturally they are all up to him.
Seeing this, Mu Ling couldn't help but be helpless: "Why don't you set up a confidential organization, composed of cronies, and filter the memorabilia submitted by the courtiers first, and then send the important ones up." There are many things that seem to me that can be handled by the courtiers below. ”
