"Having said that, after all, ......there is not much power," Qingyu said, "You will slowly understand these things in the future, then I will talk about your first step to change the world, and it takes a step by step to trip Xu Tian." ”

"Hmm." Ming Weiran said.

"Four years ago, Xu Tian had transferred his nephew Xu Maochang to Xining Province, Xining is an arid place, and the imperial court will more or less boost grain every year, this Xu Maochang has just been in office for half a year and has been in cahoots with Xining Governor Jiang Bicai and other officials, and Xu Maochang alone has embezzled 30,000 taels of silver." When Qingyu said this number, he could raise his voice [The highest official of a province is the governor, and after the governor, he is the envoy. 】

"What is the concept of 30,000 taels?" Ming Weiran has never understood, on TV dramas, I often see that the next tavern will cost more than 20 taels of silver, and charity will cost more than 10 taels of silver, so what is the concept of 30,000 taels of silver.

"Now, one tael of silver in the Great Yong Dynasty can buy two stones of rice, one stone is ninety-five kilograms, and two stones of rice is one hundred and ninety kilograms, so according to the price of rice in your world more than ten years ago, it costs about six hundred yuan to buy one hundred and ninety kilograms of rice. In other words, one tael of silver here is equivalent to six hundred yuan in your world, or six hundred yuan more than ten years ago. Qing Yuzai carefully counted the accounts.

"Wow, you're amazing! Learn from the past and the present! Ming Weiran looked at Qingyu with a surprised expression, then thought for a moment, glanced at Qingyu suspiciously, and said, "Those 30,000 taels are equivalent to 18 million yuan!" This Xu Maochang is so greedy! ”

"Yes! Don't forget, Xu Maochang is not just a corrupt official in Xining Province. Qingyu said.

"Then Jiang Bicai should be more greedy, his official is even bigger."

"There are as many as 10,000 taels. Although Jiang Bicai is Xu Maochang's boss, don't forget, Xu Maochang is Xu Tian's nephew, and I heard that Jiang Bicai will give Xu Maochang gifts during the New Year's holidays. ”

Ming Weiran shook his head, pondered for a moment and said, "You want me to get rid of them, but how can I get the big officials of this province?" ”

"Don't forget, you are the queen, and your father, uncle, master is in a high position, and more importantly, ......"

"What?"

"Your husband is the emperor! And you are the emperor's wife. Qingyu looked at Ming Weiran seriously.

"Pull it down, the first two reasons you said are more reliable than this." Ming Weiran took a big sip of tea.

"No, the third reason is more plausible. You have to make the emperor like you, and then you can participate in politics in a bright and bright way! ”

Ming Weiran was obviously very resistant to this sentence, and immediately retorted: "Do you have to rely on the emperor? Doesn't the queen of the Eternal Dynasty have the right to go up? ”

After saying this, Ming Weiran felt that she was really naïve and simple, what else did she want her to do if it worked? Even if he is sparse, with the emperor's attitude towards himself, it is a problem to even watch the music or not......

Qingyu shook her head and said, "Ming Weiran, don't think about things too simply...... Shangshu is not the same as participating in politics, and the queen can only be sparse, not court...... Relying on the emperor is the best way to do things. ”

"Then you have to rely on the emperor?" Ming Weiran said.

"Who else do you want to rely on?"

"Queen Mother, doesn't she really like this imperial ...... No, you like me, don't you? ”

"Queen Mother......" Qingyu said thoughtfully.

"It should be okay if you don't rely on the emperor." Ming Weiran said.

I thought to myself, whether this emperor is a wise monarch is another matter, and it doesn't necessarily mean that an emperor can make things happen.

"So, you promised to eradicate Xu Maochang." Qingyu smiled.

"I still want to go back." Ming Weiran said softly.

Qingyu smiled and nodded.

This Ming Weiran was still a little stunned just now, and after a while, his fighting spirit was high, and he thought about overthrowing the governor of a province, the envoy according to the inspector, and the corrupt officials of all sizes, no wonder the master said that this Ming Weiran was full of courage and admiration! But she still has to suffer......

Ming Weiran asked, "Hey, you have to tell me how the situation in Xining is." ”

"That's the point." Qingyu took a sip of water, thinking that she would have to say a lot more, "Xu Gao is also lucky, he has been in office for four years, and in the first three years, Xining has not suffered from a major drought, and the rain is quite abundant, and the harvest is higher than in previous years." Xu Gao saw that these people had a good harvest and thought that there was no need to distribute grain, so he converted the grain issued by the court into silver and swallowed it privately, accounting for about sixty percent of the total money, and also mixed with many officials during the period, especially he and the governor Jiang Bicai were the most greedy for ink. Pity...... God doesn't appreciate food, last year, Xining began a major drought, but this Xu Gao and Jiang Bicai were so greedy that they didn't know how to stop it, and starved to death Many people, which were covered up by Xu Tian. Now, summer is approaching, and there hasn't been a drop of rain in Xining, and people are about to starve to death......"

"Will they still be greedy?"

"Who knows?" Qingyu looked at Ming Weiran and said.

"I will definitely be greedy, if I want to say that being greedy for money is more addictive than smoking a big cigarette." Ming Weiran's face was firm, "What else is there about Xining?" ”

Qingyu sneered: "It's more complicated, and I haven't understood much yet." ”

"Aren't you a disciple of the immortals?"

Qingyu took a sip of tea and said, "If the disciples of the immortals can know everything, we don't need to send you here, in fact, we don't have any ability here." ”

"And how do you know so much?"

"I was sent here two years ago to take care of this garden and learn about the politics of the Yongchao." Qingyu Road.

"But how do you know about my world?" Ming Weiran looked at Qingyu.

"Two months ago, my master cast some spells that allowed me to see the past and present of your world."

"Do you have a spell, then?"

"There is, but it can't be used at all, there are rules in the world, and there are rules for immortals." Qingyu stood up and said, "Here, I'm a mortal. But I know a few eunuchs who are celebrants. "[The celebrant eunuch, the most powerful eunuch is here, the cabinet has prepared a will, and the celebrant has approved the red after the emperor's consent, and some of them take care of the emperor's daily life, and these people can influence the emperor's decision-making. 】

"No, you are a gardener and you know someone who is the master of ceremonies." Ming Weiran naturally knew what the celebrant was, the famous eunuch Wei Zhongxian was the celebrant eunuch, and many high-ranking eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty were from the celebrant eunuch.

Generally, learned people enter the palace, and if they are lucky, they can be assigned to the celebrant or go to the relationship.

"I have my own way......" Qingyu said in a tricky way.

……

Before I knew it, it was noon, it was time to eat, Ming Weiran didn't eat much last night, and now her stomach was rumbling again.

Qingyu smiled and said, "It's time for dinner, you can eat......

"How do you eat? Or I'll have someone bring you some. ”

"Queen Mother, is it appropriate? Don't worry, of course we have food for our subordinates, we have to work, and we won't let us go hungry. After speaking, Qingyu walked towards the house, and then turned back and said, "Weiran, you have to adapt to the life of the queen as soon as possible, do you hear?" ”

"Got it."

Ming Weiran ran out of the door of Hanfangyuan in a few steps, and when she arrived at the door, she straightened up and walked into the courtyard with steady steps.
