Chapter 62: The State Apparatus Struggles to Restart

Taking advantage of the absence of Yanyu, I went to Lei Nian's residence by myself again, and Lei Nian had already painted a lot of Xuanhu portraits, which were hung on the wall of the house.

Twilight Changyan also asked me about this matter, saying that King Xian's longing for me had a bad influence on Zhaozhao. I saw Xuanhu in a room full of happiness in his own portrait, and I thought that the feelings of longing should be obvious, I don't care if he affects him well or not, as long as Xuanhu is happy, there is nothing bad.

Xuanhu, since I found out that she could move freely in the palace, she has been nesting in Lei Nian's room, I am also happy to see that she has no intention of entering Lingmu Valley, after all, I have been with Xuanhu for so long, I look at her like a sister, as long as she stays is happy, I very much hope that she can continue to "live" like this.

Enthronement ceremony Lei Nian did not participate, he now almost does not go out, every day to write and paint, Xuan Hu told me that Lei Nian will often talk to her, and will guess what she will answer, there are always seventy percent of them can guess right, Xuan Hu was moved by their tacit understanding, but because Lei Nian was antagonistic to me and uneasy, afraid that I would be angry and punish Lei Nian, take my hand and be coquettish with me, please don't worry about Lei Nian.

But I couldn't communicate with Xuanhu's heart, so I could only say: "I don't have the habit of being a noble at night, and if you are unhappy, you will punish anyone." If he can't get used to it, I can't get used to it, and I'm not here to see him, I'm here to talk to you. ”

Lei Nian's hand that was painting stopped, and he snorted coldly, "You are from a civilian background, so naturally you don't have the style of nobility." ”

I sneered and replied, "Now that we are upside down, you are just sending people under the fence, and you have to speak quickly, you are sure that I will not move you in the face of Xuanhu." ”

"If this king dares to say it, he will dare to do it, but you should move me to try it and see if the night ghost soldiers agree."

"Yo yo~" I walked up to Lei Nian's side, "Look at your cow, why don't you go to the sky?" ”

Xuanhu Heng persuaded me between me and him: "Sister Wei, you see that he has this temper, he will not be soft anywhere, he was born a prince, there is always arrogance and rudeness, Sister Wei must not be angry, Xuanhu apologizes for him, okay?" ”

I touched Xuanhu's face, "Teasing you, I didn't have time to argue with him, now I've seen you too, you're all right, I'll go, I'll come back another day." ”

Xuanhu hugged me, as if thanking me for my generosity.

When I walked to the door, I remembered the things in my pocket, turned back to Lei Nian, and put the jade bracelet on Lei Nian's drawing paper, Lei Nian raised his eyes and looked cold, "What do you mean by this?" ”

I said, "I ascended the throne and your brother sent this bracelet in the gift, this is your mother's dowry, I can neither accept it, nor do I know how to keep it, it is better to return it to you, anyway, it is all your family's things, and it is also counted as the property returned to the original owner." ”

Lei Nian picked up the bracelet, walked around the bookcase to me, grabbed my hand, stuffed the bracelet back into my hand, and then went back to sit down and continue to draw without saying a word.

Okay, okay, you see that I don't like it, and I want you to do me a favor, and I'm thinking too much.

Gong Chi, the Shaoqing of Sinong Temple, has set up many porridge factories in the imperial city and outside the imperial city, and the new emperor's accession to the throne is a great joy for the whole world to celebrate.

Chengyun has already redistributed and relocated habitable houses for the people as quickly as possible, and repairs and reinforcements are gradually being carried out with the palace as the center.

The repair and reconstruction of the palace was in charge of Yanyu, and the Qingyi Guard led by him was the fastest to complete the step-by-step establishment and start construction, and the change from the Yan family to the identity and responsibilities of the Qingyi Guard was almost seamless. With Qingyiwei as an example, Twilight Changyan led the ministers to coordinate and deploy in various ministries is also very efficient, and a few more available people can be selected to be placed in various positions during the specific implementation.

Xuancang, the old and rusted state machine, finally slowly restarted in a creaking and hoarse noise.

When it comes to selecting builders for the Second Ring City Wall, Yan Yu can be said to be as discerning as a torch, and every time he sees a group of people, he will come to tell me what he thinks is good and what is good, and he can always analyze the pros and cons before telling me his conclusions. Because what Yan Yu said is so reasonable, I don't even need to use my brain, just nod my head.

Soon, Chengyun of the household department encountered a problem, Xuancang after ten years of famine, although before I returned to Xuancang, Du Changyan had ordered people to divide the white bones everywhere into several places to bury, those burial sites were too close to the people's residences, and the people nearby always said that they heard screams and wails at night, which made people panic. However, once the human bones are buried, it is disrespectful to the deceased to dig them up, and I am afraid that the people will find it difficult to accept the practice of digging up the human bones and burying them in another place.

It's about to be the day of Yanyu and my wedding, and I want to settle this matter before the wedding, but after asking them for a few days, no one can come up with a reliable way.

The Xuancang people have a long-standing admiration for the Lingmu Ancient Tree, so I simply let Twilight Changyan go to the Lingmu Valley to dig many caves along the valley wall, and then transport all the ownerless white bones into the palace. On behalf of the Xuancang royal family, after reciting a scripture in which Xuancang prayed to the spiritual wood, I helped these white bones to overtake them, and then put the white bones into the cave.

After death, the white bones can be taken care of by the spirit wood, and the people of Xuancang actually spread a saying: If he makes a meritorious service in Xuancang, the empress will allow this person to be buried in the Spirit Wood Valley after death, and the soul is protected by the spirit wood, and this blessing will also imply three generations downward. This statement for a time inspired the enthusiasm of the whole people to produce and save themselves and earn credit, coupled with the U-Ming moderation tax strategy launched by Du Changyan and Chengyun, the people's production momentum was greatly excited.

With this saying, I asked the craftsman to classify the white bones in the cave of Lingmu Valley into various totems and hang them, here I imitate the human bone church, after all, the white bones in the valley are still terrifying, it is better to give these deceased more spiritual meaning.

Hubu Chengyun was indeed as sympathetic to the people as I judged, and when I didn't give an order, I went to sort out a list of Xuancang's missing and dead names in the past ten years against Xuancang's Hubu file ten years ago, and although forty percent of them could not be traced, sixty percent of the names were still confirmed to be dead. Cheng Yun came up and asked me to engrave the list on the stone wall of Lingmu Valley, so that the white bones and the names of the people engraved on the tablet could return to the Lingmu.

In this way, the deceased is remembered in a way that is highly recognized by the Xuancang people, and the living also have a goal and sustenance.

And I play a very small role in it, a country that has been dead for ten years, its courtiers and people can get out of the haze so quickly, began to embark on the road of cohesion and self-improvement, this situation brought me the shock is indescribable, I have a very high respect for the Xuancang people in my heart, not so much that I lead the Xuancang people, but that the Xuancang people help me strengthen my determination and belief.

However, the month of my belly is getting bigger and bigger, and although my heart is shaking, I can only temporarily entrust government affairs to the twilight smoke. I secretly made up my mind that when the child was born, I would work hard to live up to the trust of the people of the world.
