72. Domestic crisis

There was a starvation death in Texas, and the local people protested, and the people in Fujian who relied on eating tree bark went to the official office to grab grain...

Conflicts broke out one after another because of famine. There is only one way for such things to happen, and it is common for officials to force the people to rebel. Then the dynasty will perish. What will she explain to the people of the world when she arrives, and she is a first-class gentleman, and she will not be able to keep the people around her.

She has never been a very assertive person, and she is still a daughter when she becomes an emperor.

"You go to pass on the book of the household department Li Zhicheng." She put down the fold in her hand and ordered the attendants who were waiting on the side.

"Yes." The chamberlain took the order and left.

She has a headache, the name Li Zhicheng is very sensitive, and she vaguely feels that it is an anti-king name. I'm already having a headache.

One by one, I flipped through the folds, and it was still those things. If the people want to rebel, they want to be deterred, and they want to be appeased, and it seems that they need to find a professional to follow.

"You go and put Wang Chuanjian, the secretary of the criminal department." He instructed another chamberlain who was still waiting.

"Yes." The chamberlain respectfully accepted the order and left.

Li Zhicheng came quickly, that is, he entered the palace in three moments: "Minister Li Zhicheng sees the emperor." ”

"Li Aiqing is exempt." She stood up from the dragon chair.

"Your Majesty." Li Zhicheng thanked him and stood up to tidy up his official uniform.

"There was a famine in the south, something big happened, and one by one it was placed on my desk, and it was not anyone's fault. I would like to discuss with you that each state government will send a grain relief tube, and a part of the military rations in the grain depot will be allocated according to the number of people who can eat and wear. What do you think? "She's envy.

"Your Majesty, Changzhou is still at war, how can this military ration be allocated for disaster relief?" Li Zhi became a difficulty.

"The matter of military rations has other people to prepare, as long as you keep half of it, you have your own room for maneuver." She's got it all in her chest.

"The emperor's decision should be obeyed by the ministers, but this is a battle that has no chance of winning. The emperor's decision is obeyed. Li Zhicheng knelt on the ground.

"Okay, you go back to the household department and choose a few capable generals to bring me to me. Remember, you need to find someone who can support the overall situation, and this battle between the north and the south is a long-term solution. She specifically instructed.

"Obey." Li Zhicheng retired after receiving the order.

Li Zhicheng went out with his front foot, and Wang Chuanjian entered the palace with his back foot: "The minister Wang Chuanjian sees the emperor." ”

"I want you to quickly pick a few capable prison masters to come to me quickly, and you want to go south to quell the people's grievances for the Qin Dispatch together with the Household Relief Officer, remember, you must be able to support the overall situation. Hurry up and go. "She doesn't care about being polite.

"The minister obeys the order, and the minister retires." The monarch's order was so urgent that Wang Chuanjian didn't even get up, so he retired directly.

At this moment, she looked uncomfortable not moving, she knew that sitting in this position was not for her alone from the beginning, otherwise why would everyone have to hide from the whole world to transform her into a boy and help her to this position, it is not easy to sit on this throne and think about it.

The anxiety in her heart after watching the folds made her feel inexplicably anxious, and she always felt a kind of impetuousness and dryness, and her mouth was bitter.

The weather is still cold right now, and there is a small stove roasting on his side, and I feel cold all over my body.

Comparing her heart to her heart, she felt cold, and those hungry people also felt cold. She began to feel that she was sitting in this high position, and that she was trying to keep everyone from starving.

I don't know who made this happen, but she had to clean up the mess, at least for the sake of some emotions in her heart.

Li Zhicheng and Wang Chuanjian also came quickly, and each brought eight to ten officials to meet the driver after an hour.

"Your Majesty, this is the self-recommended list of the Criminal Department." Wang Chuanjian held a piece of paper in both hands.

"Bring it in." She commanded.

"Your Majesty, this is the list of self-recommended by the household department." Li Zhicheng also held a piece of paper in both hands.

"Bring it all in." She did as she was told.

After the chamberlain presented the list in their respective hands, she flipped it open and looked at it.

"You all have your names registered." She looked up at them.

"The Inspector of the Ministry of Ministers and Households celebrates in the city." "Ke Yiluan, the director of the Ministry of Punishment." Min Guqian, the head of the Ministry of Ministers. ”...

They all reported to the officials one by one.

"The Criminal Department and the Household Department are both limited, so you can leave three of them behind and recommend yourself." She will understand Wang Chuanjian and Li Zhicheng.

"Yes." The two looked at their respective subordinates behind them.

"The minister elects these three." "The minister elects these three." Li Zhicheng and Wang Chuanjian spoke almost at the same time.

"Okay, then everyone else is waiting outside, and I'll summon you later." She withdrew, and the others waited.

After all the people who were not elected this time left, she said again: "Since I ascended the throne, it is my fault that I have not sent a messenger to inspect the people's feelings. I have gathered you today for the famine rebellion that has occurred in many places in recent days. The Criminal Department and the Household Department went to the Sanzhou Capital for disaster relief one by one, and the second thing was to deal with the local officials who oppressed the people. At the end of the year, there is no less exploitation of the people, and they don't know how to restrain themselves when this national crisis is at hand, and it is intolerable for me to do it. Do you understand what I mean? ”

A few people present didn't know where to start for a long time, which made her even more aware that they were the people above the officials below.

"Ladies and gentlemen, not everyone can be a clean official, but digging the root of the country's wall, no one can get better if the wall falls, Yulin Kingdom has come in, it is unreasonable to let you go to war, you can only let the young and middle-aged people in the people go to war. The people who supported me as the emperor wanted to at least feed and clothe them, and you should remember this bottom line. She spoke openly.

"The minister is terrified." Everyone present knelt on the ground.

"Don't be afraid, as long as you appease the people this time, take the lead and come back. Famine is a big deal. I learned that there is a new technology that can alleviate the problem of hunger by growing fruits and vegetables in the shed. After dinner tonight, I will personally explain to you that I will go back to the Taiwei Hall to clean up and settle down at home, and the holy decree of appointing the Qin to inspect the state capital will be issued immediately, and you will return to the official office to wait. "She has established her authority cleanly and won the hearts of the people.

"Obey." A trembling cry was in my ears.

She knew that the pressure on the household department and the criminal department during this period was not small, and when she saw the driver retreat, she called all the people waiting outside in, rewarded and punished them and preached with words, and then took away a little resentment in her heart.

Before she knew it, it was time to finish the meal, and the chamberlain brought Ning Rong and told the maids in her palace to ask: "The queen sent someone to ask the emperor where is the dinner?" ”

"I still have state affairs to deal with after dinner, send them here, and after eating, I will go to Taiwei Hall to deal with state affairs." She lowered her head and said as she watched the fold.

"Yes." The chamberlain led her out and replied.
