The first update

The Spring Festival of Xianfeng's second year came so quietly, Qingyu and Xianfeng walked in the palace hand in hand as usual after the big banquet outside. ◢ With * dream * small ◢.1a

"The year has finally passed." Xianfeng let out a long sigh.

"It's so good, Your Majesty, think about our year, it's actually been quite good. How wonderful! The Taiping army at the beginning of the year is now in ashes. In fact, since the Ming Dynasty, the people of Jiangnan have hated the imperial court's heavy taxes in the south. Zhu Yuanzhang, the former Ming Taizu, actually had no choice, for the imperial court, the south was rich, and the north was poor. It's like I roll out the dough for you, you say, can it be thick and thin? As a parent, you always want to be the same thick and thin. ”

"Yes, that's what I thought, I can only endure the pain and roll the thick to the thin. This year, we are greatly inclined to Jiangnan. But do you think Gangnam really needs three years of tax exemption? This Xianfeng really wanted to know, because this was asked by the ministers of civil and military affairs during the evening banquet.

"What do you think?" Qingyu wanted to hear Xianfeng's thoughts, she had no experience in managing the country. All she does now is put out fires. Yes, they don't have time to think about the future yet.

"Zeng Guofan's excerpt has great confidence in the coming year. Many people went to the Shanghai Concession and decided to open factories. is asking about the price of the new machine, and if the factory really opens, he is absolutely convinced ......"

"Don't listen to him, the factory hasn't opened yet, and if you want to collect taxes, you're really crazy about money! I really thought that when the machine sounded, there would be ten thousand taels of silver. severely reprimanded Zeng Guofan, dare to draw a penny for three years, and you will make him look good. ”

Qingyu was angry, she didn't understand governing the country, but she still knew about business. All industries need time to keep. Adaptation machinery, as well as production products, these are not all immediately beneficial. People haven't bought the machine yet, so they want to take taxes.

"Once there are many factories in Jiangnan, what will happen to those farmlands? The wealth of Jiangnan lies in the warm climate and three harvests a year, otherwise why say that Jiangnan is ripe and the world is full. Therefore, according to me, it is better to let the north do industry and let the south maintain stability. ”

"Yes, of course this is the best, but now we can only use this place as a pilot, so that everyone can see the benefits of building a factory, and then rich people everywhere don't have to think about it, they can directly open their own factories." Qingyu also wanted to, but if the court paid to build a big factory, it would naturally be able to choose a place, but now that the court doesn't have this money, they can only rely on their own subjective initiative.

Qingyu sighed softly and thought for a moment, "By the way, I used my private money to ask the Americans to buy their farm machinery." They are now semi-mechanized and have several types of machines, and I have asked them how many sets they have ordered. The ...... that will be delivered to us then," she thought for a moment, "why don't we have anyone working on these machines?" ”

"Who said no, it's just that there hasn't been much progress." Xianfeng smiled, her private money was the money that was copied from Eunuch Zhang and An Dehai at that time. I didn't see her add anything to herself, the palace was a little bit smooth, and now this money has to be taken out to buy those machinery, "Will those machines be useful?" ”

"Of course, it will be useful, and when we have money in the future, we will subsidize farmers to farm like the Americans. What we can do now is to make everyone good. Qingyu smiled and let out a long sigh.

"Qingyu!" Xianfeng glared at him again, why did he have to say on Chinese New Year's Eve, what they did was within their ability, trying to make people not rebel, and everyone was safe and stable.

"Your Majesty, you are a man of great wisdom. Really, you're better than me! Qingyu took Xianfeng's hand, and Xianfeng has been trying to support herself. Now she knows what her problem is, she is more pessimistic than Xianfeng, why does she think that Xianfeng is a fragile child, without his own support, he will become a coward who escapes reality.

"Why?" Xianfeng frowned and smiled, he was a little afraid of seeing Qingyu's discouragement, but now he felt strange when he saw Qingyu say this to himself.

"I always thought you were more pessimistic than me, but now I know that you are bearing the pressure in front of you, and at the same time you have to comfort me who is so pessimistic and misanthropic. I'm sorry, I should have supported you a little more. Qingyu let out a long sigh and looked up at the sky in the Forbidden City that was cut into pieces, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm pessimistic." We are in these troubled times, and I am pessimistic. ”

"No, if it weren't for you, maybe I would have fallen a long time ago. Before you entered the palace, I was even more pessimistic, I was afraid of death, so I wanted to regain this position that should have been mine. But when I got it back, I was even more miserable. As soon as I opened my eyes, they told me desperately that everyone outside was trying to overthrow me. Xianfeng smiled and looked at her sideways, "Qingyu, I left you because I found that there is a girl who is more pitiful than me, and if I let you out, you can only be given to others by the vicious mother." I am the only one who can save you. It makes me live very fast! ”

"You were my savior, and no one could save me at that time except you." Qingyu smiled, looked at Xianfeng's face, and said sincerely.

"You are also mine, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have paid attention to Chery, Chery is the one who really helped me open up the situation. And then it seems to be going better and better. Because of you, I'm starting to be less afraid. Qingyu, are you afraid of death? ”

"Don't be afraid, if you're afraid, I won't mess with you like this." Qingyu smiled, she still knew herself quite well, she was just a wisp of wandering spirit, here, it was just a dream. Her pessimism lies in the fact that she dreams of working harder than others.

"Yes, I was afraid of death, but now I am not afraid. As I told you, we did whatever we wanted before we died, and we didn't care about the flood after death. ”

"Sometimes we don't know what the impact of every decision we make now will have in the future, aren't you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid, what's there to be afraid of, can it be worse?" Xianfeng looked at Qingyu.

"Yes, could it be worse?" Qingyu really smiled this time, she didn't know much about history, but she knew that the Taiping Army had been making trouble for more than ten years. And Xianfeng solved this matter himself. If there are still Taiping troops now, they can't walk here so comfortably. Thinking about it, Qingyu looked back at Xianfeng, this kind of decapitation action is a particularly popular practice in modern battles. But in classical Chinese battles, it is really rare, "Your Majesty, what do you think, let people kill Yang Xiuqing?" ”

"You forgot, you reminded me?" Xianfeng looked at Qingyu.

"At that time, I dared to participate in the government?" Qingyu was stunned for a moment, why couldn't she think of it at all.

"No, you said about your entry into the palace, and your aunt bribed the people around your wife and took a salary from the bottom of the kettle. I just thought, in another way, we don't buy Yang Xiuqing, but kill him? ”

"I really didn't mean to!" Qingyu hurriedly raised her hand, indicating that she really didn't mean to prompt.

Xianfeng laughed.
