722 Find something to say

After Gao Zhao returned to the house, he kept thinking about the problem of the post station.

In ancient times, the post station was used for people who passed palace documents and military information or officials who came and went to eat and lodging, and changed horses.

The post station belongs to the official, the officials can be free, and the dart bureau belongs to private logistics, and you have to pay for your own money.

This can take advantage of loopholes, and some officials of the imperial court reap benefits from it for personal gain.

There will be traveling merchants, nobles, and even monks, who can use money to get the qualification certificate of the post station.

In this way, the increasing reception costs of the post station caused a heavy financial burden on the imperial court.

This type of corruption is extremely common during certain periods.

Faced with such a situation, there was an official surnamed Liu in history who wrote to the emperor to rectify the post station.

The official surnamed Liu has a simple and quick method, which is to lay off employees. He told the emperor that if such measures were implemented, the imperial court would save 800,000 taels of silver a year, and that the burden on the local government would be greatly reduced. Of course, the emperor was pleased, and carried it out vigorously.

A year later, the effect of saving silver was remarkable, reducing the cost by 800,000 taels.

The silver taels saved were not necessarily used for the people, but they offended a large number of officials up and down who fished for oil and water, and also made tens of thousands of post station personnel lose their jobs.

In the scolding of hundreds of officials, the official surnamed Liu resigned and returned to his hometown, and soon died of depression. When the coffin was transported to Shandong, the family could not hire a single person, so it was stored in a hostel and could not be buried in the village for many years.

This is cutting off people's financial resources, like killing their parents.

And the reason why Gao Zhao understands this is because he listened to a course in his previous life, and the teacher who gave the lecture was very humorous, and once said a sentence: You let me be laid off, and I will let you lose the country.

A courier brother who was laid off was looking for a job, that is, he set his sights on the job of the emperor who laid him off, but he didn't expect him to do it, although the time was too short, he only served as the emperor for forty-two days.

Of course, the demise of a dynasty is not caused by the post station and this courier brother, but freezing three feet is not a day's cold, once the corrupt atmosphere is formed, if it is not stopped, it will one day bring about a catastrophe.

That's why Gao Zhao said to Mr. Jia that time, but if you dig up the big and small poisonous sores, your life may be gone.

Listening to what Prince Qing said, the prince also understood this problem, so he said that he would slowly figure it out.

It seems that the in-laws returned to their hometown, not only to worship their ancestors, but also to use this as an excuse to do something.

Gao Zhao didn't think that she would have much ability, what could she do about this problem that was difficult to solve for thousands of years in history.

I don't have enough ability, I don't have enough brains, so I'm still obedient and obedient, and let her do whatever she wants.

To be honest, I'm a little excited, but it's "doing big things", not eating and drinking, getting married and having children, eating and waiting to die until I get old, and I don't travel in vain.

"Wait for a thousand years, wait for a thousand years, wait for a thousand years, I have no regrets, who asked me to go to Fujian to sing and lurk"

Gao Zhaokang, who was singing and humming nonsense, rolled up a few times and prepared to sleep.

Xianglan asked if the second grandmother had slept, and Gao Zhao let her in.

"Second grandma, today Tao Fu said that people who have never been on a boat will be seasick, second grandma, what if you get seasick"

Gao Zhao got up and said, "Then spit out." ”

Xianglan pouted, Gao Zhao looked at it, the girl pouted so cute, and Xianglan pouted very cartoonish.

"I'm used to spitting and spitting, is the second grandmother going to say this?"

Gao Zhao grinned, "Xianglan, who knows me." ”

"Second grandma, you have a dream tonight, see if there is a good way to cure seasickness, in case the slave is seasick, you won't be able to serve the second grandma."

"You say you dream, you dream."

Seeing that Xianglan was about to pout and turn into a cartoon again, Gao Zhao hurriedly said: "Okay, I'll dream tonight, and I dreamed that the Bodhisattva gave me a home remedy." ”

Xianglan stopped pouting and grinned, "Thank you second grandma, the slave is on duty tonight." ”

Listen to what the second grandmother said at night. I really wanted to tell the second grandmother that she could talk in her dreams at night, but the eldest aunt said that she was talking to the Bodhisattva, and she must not say it, otherwise the Bodhisattva would not come in the future.

It's a pity that the second grandmother didn't speak in her dream tonight.

Early the next morning, Princess Pingwu sent someone to go to Lingxu Temple to offer incense.

Gao Zhao ate breakfast and hurried to Rongxi Hall, waited for a while, the princess's mother-in-law came out of the back room, dressed neatly, Gao Zhao stepped forward to help, and Mama Zhou took a step forward.

It's a pity, I really want to offer filial piety.

The second master didn't go, and Gao Zhao didn't dare to ask more, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to burn incense and pray before going out.

The two of them were in a car, sitting in the car, square face to small face, Gao Zhao didn't have nothing to say this time, Princess Pingwu felt strange.

In the past, when the two were alone, Princess Pingwu could feel that her daughter-in-law had nothing to say every time, and tried not to be cold, but something happened today

How did Gao Zhao know that the princess's mother-in-law was guessing her, she got into the carriage, remembered Xianglan's problem last night, and tried her best to think about whether there was a home remedy for motion sickness and seasickness in her previous life.

Because I don't get motion sickness or seasickness, I don't remember it, I remember to eat ginger, and there are things in the belly button

Can't remember.

Huishen looked up and saw the eyes of the princess's mother-in-law, Gao Zhao asked again: "Mother, are you seasick?"

Princess Pingwu was stunned for a moment, and said calmly: "I haven't been on a boat. ”

Gao Zhao was embarrassed, "I was just wondering if there was anything I could do to relieve seasickness." ”

Princess Pingwu nodded, looking at that look was thinking about something.

Gao Zhao said again: "I don't get seasick." ”

After speaking, he explained: "I think so, definitely not seasickness." ”

I have never been on a boat here, so I directly said that I am not seasick and sick.

Princess Pingwu looked at her daughter-in-law incoherently, and felt that she was still nervous in the face of herself, and there were few people who were not nervous in the face of her.

To be honest, Gao Zhao hasn't gotten used to how to get along with this mother-in-law, every time it's deliberate, and he feels so unnatural.

Let's also play silence is golden.

Nothing was said all the way.

When he arrived at the temple, Gao Zhao thought that the princess's mother-in-law would at least come to clear the field, but he didn't expect to be like ordinary pilgrims, entering the gate, entering the hall, burning incense and kowtowing.

Gao Zhao kowtowed piously, wishing them a smooth trip this time, blessing the health of her family, and blessing her and the second master with a sweet relationship.

came out of a palace and met Mrs. You, the Duchess of Lu Guo and her mother.

Strangely, the two looked at each other and did not speak.

Gao Zhao felt so strange, and looked back, that's right, it was Mrs. You.

Then why did the two walk face to face and not speak

What happened

On the way back, Gao Zhao couldn't help but ask.

"Mother, what I saw in the temple just now was the mother of Duchess Lu Guo"

Gao Zhao, who was waiting for the princess's mother-in-law to say yes, heard her mother-in-law say no, she was surprised and just dazzled

"That's Mrs. Cai, Mrs. You's sister."

I understand, it's not twins, it's sisters very similar, Gao Zhao has seen a pair of sisters before, the difference is two or three years old, that is, they will admit their mistakes.
