Chapter 50: Save the Folks!
"The minister said that the villagers can't live anymore."
Hu Guoyong sniffed and continued: "In the past two years, Fengyang's hometown has also suffered a disaster, and the villagers can't eat enough.
In order to build the central capital, they gritted their teeth, and even if they built their hometown, this is also the will of all the villagers.
But the bad thing is that they build their own hometown, but they still have to bring their own grain and silver.
When the money is used up, and the grain is eaten, but the ration is not given, how does this make a man live? ”
There is a river in front of Fengyang, and there is Huai in the back, so that the danger can be feared, and the water can be wet.
There are two natural hazards of the Yangtze River and the Huai River, and the waterway transportation is very convenient.
But in the past two years, these two rivers have become a disaster.
"Haven't we already exempted the villagers from taxes and grain taxes for three years? Also, how can the levy be a forcemaker, how can it not be given rations? ”
"It is true that taxes were exempted, but the villagers' land was flooded, and when the flood waters receded, most of the people's houses collapsed.
Even if it doesn't collapse, the home won't be a family.
I don't know how many people died in the water. Hu Guoyong couldn't cry, "That's our folks!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang's forehead was bruised, "Call us Li Shanren, he didn't say that to us before!" ”
Li Shanren just said that there was a disaster in Fengyang, and relief could be determined.
He exempted Fengyang from taxes, and also allocated silver taels and grain, he always thought that although Fengyang had a disaster, it should be controlled.
Looking at it now, that's not the case at all!
"You go on!" Zhu Yuanzhang clenched his fists and said.
"Your Majesty, when you built the Ying Emperor's Palace, everything is based on simplicity, sturdiness and practicality, and the Zhongdu is beautifully made, which can be called the most thousand-year-old.
But this honor did not bring benefits to the villagers, and the requisitioned Lifu had no time to repair their homes, they did not have enough food and clothing, and they had no long things, didn't this force them to die? Hu Guoyong knelt down and said: "Please Your Majesty can stop the construction of the central capital and give the villagers a breathing room!" ”
Liu Ji thought to himself, this Hu Guoyong is really powerful, this knife directly slashed into Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.
Lao Zhu is a person with hometown feelings, otherwise he would not regard Fengyang as the central capital.
Those people in the Huaixi Group had similar ideas to Lao Zhu, so Lao Zhu mentioned this matter and hit it off directly.
To this end, Lao Zhu also temporarily set up a department, the Ministry of Works.
And Li Shanren is the chief supervisor of Zhongdu, followed by: Xue Yang (former secretary of the Ministry of Industry, current senior doctor), Zhongshan Hou Tang Ding, Jiangyin Hou Wu Lang, etc.
All of them are high-ranking officials in Huaixi.
You must know that Lao Zhu is very thrifty, and his clothes are mended and mended, but the capital is under construction, and it is extremely luxurious.
has taken care of Fengyang many times, and now when he hears Hu Guoyong's words, he is not angry?
Wonderful, really wonderful!
Let's see how Li Shanren resolves this crisis this time.
Zhu Yuanzhang held back the fire.
Soon, Li Shanren came, entered the Fengtian Temple, and saw Hu Guoyong kneeling and crying bitterly, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.
"Bow to your majesty!"
As soon as Li Shanren spoke, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes that wanted to eat people.
"Baishi, let's ask you, you need to tell me honestly!" Zhu Yuanzhang walked down the steps step by step, "What's wrong with our folks?" ”
Li Shanren's heart trembled, and he said stiffly: "The villagers are still ......."
"Are they displaced, are they hungry and helping us build the capital?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were about to breathe fire.
Li Shanren looked back at Hu Guoyong suddenly, his heart was clear, and he quickly knelt down and said: "Back to Your Majesty, there is no such thing, the minister knows that His Majesty is most concerned about the villagers in Fengyang, so the relief will be in place as soon as the disaster occurs."
How could they go hungry in the construction of the capital?
If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to check and ask! ”
"We must find out clearly, from now on, you don't have to worry about the affairs of Zhongdu anymore, and the supervision of Zhongdu will also stop."
Zhu Yuanzhang obviously didn't believe Li Shanren's words, he looked at Hu Guoyong, "You go to Zhongdu on our behalf and check it out carefully for us." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Hu Guoyong sniffed, "Ministers and villagers, thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
Li Shanren was anxious, "Your Majesty, the construction of the Zhongdu has been completed for nearly seven years, and it is almost completed, and it is now finished...... Isn't it halfway? ”
He hated Hu Guoyong so much, isn't this halfway picking peaches?
"We've got our own plans." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "You know, the most remembered thing in our hearts is the villagers."
If anyone is not good to the villagers, we will use the knife against whom! ”
Li Shanren's back was cold for a while, and he suddenly woke up, no wonder Hu Guoyong didn't make a move, it turned out that he was waiting for him here.
He looked at Liu Ji again, and then he realized that in order to deal with himself, Hu Guoyong had fallen to the Zhedong Group.
The dog that forgets the ancestors, even the ancestors don't want it!
Li Shanren scolded in his heart.
This matter must also have Liu Ji's share.
What is this trying to do?
Do you want to fight with their Huaixi Group?
Come on!
Seeing that Li Shanren bowed his head and was silent, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand impatiently, "All go down!" ”
"Minister, retire!"
After the three of them retreated.
Li Shanren said to Hu Guoyong: "Good calculation, good ability, Dingyuan's face has been lost by you!" ”
Hu Guoyong was not angry, and said unhurriedly: "If you don't want people to know, unless you don't do anything, you have to wipe your right buttocks!" ”
"It's not easy to go to Fengyang Road, you pay attention to safety!" Li Shanren sneered and turned to leave.
Hu Guoyong squinted and looked at Liu Ji, "What do you think of Sincerity?" ”
Liu Ji stroked his beard, "The old man looks at it with a smile!" ”
......
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was quite irritable, and he couldn't stand it.
The thought that his fellow villagers were likely to be in dire straits made him uncomfortable.
He didn't want to be poked in the back by the villagers, saying that he Zhu Yuanzhang was a faint king.
He walked out of the Fengtian Hall and involuntarily walked towards the university hall, looking at the eldest grandson when he was upset, he would definitely be in a better mood.
By the way, beat up the sixth child and get angry!
Soon, he came to the university hall, and at this time the school was full of reading.
It was Li Yanxi who was still teaching.
Zhu Jun held a ring ruler in his hand to help Li Yanxi maintain classroom discipline.
There are already a few little monkeys that don't grow up that have been caught behind, including Zhu Gaoxu.
The little guy held the book in his hand and looked plaintive.
Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard and nodded, this Li Yanxi is really good, he can actually restrain the sixth child.
It seems that this is also the fate of the two.
"That's all for this lesson, let's talk about what virtue is, and check the article tomorrow!" Li Yanxi said.
Zhu Jun coughed dryly and said loudly: "Stand up and thank you!" ”
Hearing this voice, everyone couldn't help but stand up and bow slightly, "Mr. Xie teaches and solves doubts, goodbye, sir!" ”
Li Yanxi stroked his beard, and was even more satisfied with Zhu Jun in his heart.
In the future, whoever wants to say that King Wu doesn't understand etiquette, he has to slap that person in the mouth!
