Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

A middle-aged man in a bright yellow dragon robe sat on a dragon chair, next to two small eunuchs, and a slightly older eunuch stood beside the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man is only about 30 years old, and his temples have turned gray.

He ascended the throne at the age of seventeen, and he is just 29 years old this year, and his face is full of exhaustion.

He is the current emperor, Chen Hongli, and the year name is Longqian.

There was a kind of fatigue emanating from the bottom of his heart in Emperor Longqian's expression, but he was self-reliant and reviewed the chapters.

Bi Ziyan of the household department said, "Increase the tax amount of the Xuanjiao Division by 10,000 to 30,000 yuan", Zheng Sanjun of Jinling said that "the tax collected by the Xuanjiao is not much, please tax Wuhu to offset the number", Bi Ziyan said, "The tax in Wuhu is 30,000, and the tax is still increased by 10,000." ”

Emperor Longqian threw Song Shu on the dragon case and pinched his sore eyes.

"Money! Money! Money! Everywhere they are asking me for money, when I am the God of Wealth? The Guanning army in the north asked for money, Yang Sichang in Sichuan and Shu asked for money, and the province was hungry, and in Jifu, Shandong, Henan, Shanxi, and Shaanxi, there were people who ate vegetables on the soil, and there were no vegetables. ”

"The people have no money, and I have no money, where did the money of the Great Zhou Dynasty go!"

The two little eunuchs trembled when they heard this, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

Their Emperor Longqian, moody and suspicious, only killed two little eunuchs with a rod last month.

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger.

"Tell me, what should I do?" Emperor Longqian leaned on the dragon chair and closed his eyes to recuperate.

The eunuch who is called Wang Cheng'en is Wang Chengen, who accompanied Emperor Longqian when he was still a prince, and he has been following Emperor Longqian for more than 20 years.

Wang Chengen said respectfully: "Long live the Sacred Heart is dictatorial, thinks well, and can always think of a way." ”

On the dragon case, the candlelight flickered.

Emperor Longqian sighed, straightened his waist and said: "You old dog, what you say is light, although I am the Son of Heaven, I am far worse than my ancestors in terms of quick thinking and governing the country and the country." ”

"It's just that, I'm tired of a day, I don't want these bad things, there are no interesting things today, let's talk about it."

Wang Chengen immediately smiled and said: "There is really one interesting thing, the youngest son of Jia Zheng of Rongguo Mansion is called Jia Baoyu, and he made a poem, and the old slave sounds strange and interesting. ”

"Read!"

"But Mi Zi Ke, why drink it, Taiqiu Shilu.

White jade is the hall, and the flavor is not sorghum meat.

It's sparse. The situation is eight, the fruit is fresh and ripe.

Today, Xiuxian, the party's sheep cheese, Shi's bean porridge.

That's it.

Quickly around the stove and scoop the spoon continuously.

Full of warmth, consumption of leisure and happiness.

Shenjing is rich. That has this、Even round Jiagu。

Junenwo.

Father and son are in the same place. Wang Chengen held a note in his hand and read it word by word.

When Emperor Longqian heard this, he nodded: "It's decent, but it's also straightforward, the Jia Zheng you are talking about, is it the one from the Ministry of Industry?" ”

"Long live the Lord has a really good memory, it is Jia Zheng, a member of the Ministry of Works, and his father Jia Daishan is the late Rongguo Gong." Wang Chengen hurriedly said.

Emperor Longqian glanced at him and said, "It's nothing more than a poem, what is interesting?" ”

Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Lyrics are not interesting, this Jia Zheng was going to send his youngest son to Guozijian to study, who knew that this Jia Baoyu proposed to make a bet with his Lao Tzu, and memorize the "Four Books and Chapters and Sentences Collection Notes" within three days, and if he loses, he will obey Jia Zheng's arrangement, and if he wins, he will continue to stay in the house." ”

When Emperor Longqian heard this, he immediately became interested: "What is the result?" ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly said: "This Jia Baoyu is a prodigy, yesterday in the house test, really memorized the "Four Books and Chapters and Sentences Notes", broke his father Jia Zheng's face, this Jia Zheng is not easy to go back on his word, this morning invited Liu Zongzhou, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, to his house as a guest, Liu Zongzhou took the test again, this Jia Baoyu is also lucky, actually into the blue eyes of Lord Liu. ”

"Who is this Jia Baoyu?" Emperor Long Qian asked lightly.

Wang Chengen replied: "Long live the lord, the old slave has inquired, Jia Zheng's wife Wang, the firstborn son is called Jia Zhu, who entered school at the age of fourteen, and married the daughter of Li Shouzhong, the priest of the country at that time, when he was less than twenty years old, but unfortunately he died of illness.

Wang's second child gave birth to a young lady, Jia Yuanchun, because of "virtuous filial piety and talent" A few years ago, he entered the palace as a female history, and later Wang gave birth to Jia Baoyu.

Strange to say, when this Jia Baoyu was born, he had a piece of colorful crystal jade in his mouth, and there were many handwritings on it, so he was named Baoyu. ”

Emperor Long Qian smiled: "It's really strange, this Jia Baoyu has a lot of background, born with a jade, and he is really a prodigy." ”

Wang Chengen said with a smile: "Who said no, this is long live the Lord of the country, auspicious from the sky, indicating the prosperity of our Great Zhou Dynasty, forever Yonglong!" ”

Emperor Longqian sneered, pointed at Wang Chengen with his hand and said: "You old dog, you will choose a good one to say, how can there be a dynasty in this world that will last forever." ”

Speaking of this, Emperor Longqian frowned again, as if he remembered the troubles on the song.

Wang Chengen hurriedly shrank his body, lowered his head, and said no more.

……

Early the next morning, Shen Liang drank a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup from Mrs. Shi, and rushed to Mrs. Wang's residence non-stop.

"Mom, just let me go out and have a look." Shen Liang grinded Mrs. Wang.

Mrs. Wang frowned and said, "What are you going out for, be careful of being photographed by Huazi, you ask Zhou Rui's family, how many children have been lost in Shenjing City these days." ”

"What Mrs. said is, brother, if you don't go out, I don't know the scene outside, this year's drought in Beizhili, hungry people from Hebei and Shandong gathered in Shenjing City, I heard that tens of thousands of hungry people have gathered outside the Guangning Gate." Zhou Ruijia said.

Shen Liang was stunned when he heard this: "There are so many hungry people, and the court doesn't provide disaster relief?" ”

Zhou Ruijia sneered: "It is commonplace that there will be no famine in any year, and that there will be no death in ten thousand people, and there are so many refugees, and the imperial court is too busy. ”

When Shen Liang heard this, he became even more curious.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, what was the situation of Emperor Longqian, listening to this meaning, it seems that it is not a prosperous dynasty, but a bit of the meaning of the last years of the dynasty.

Mrs. Wang was frightened, and even shouted, "Amitabha, sin, Baoyu, do you hear, the world outside is very chaotic, and even the official family has begun martial law, presumably the situation has reached a very serious point, and you must not go out again." ”

Get!

Mrs. Wang's road was completely useless, and Shen Liang replied weakly: "Thank you mother for reminding me, the child knows." ”

As soon as I went out, I saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl and a little girl who had just kept her head standing on the steps and talking.

"What are you doing looking for your wife early in the morning?" The big girl laughed.

Shen Liang saw that the girl was beautiful and moving, so he took out two Xiangxue Runjin Dan from the purse on his waist and gave them to the girl's mouth.

The big girl didn't refuse, just puffed.

Shen Liang had a plan in his heart, and said with a smile: "Sister, you guess, there is a reward for guessing correctly." ”

The little girl next to her interjected: "Sister Jin Chu'er, don't talk to him, be careful of your wife's punishment." ”
