Chapter Twenty-Seven: Unstoppable
In the old emperor's heart, he couldn't cry or laugh.
In fact, she doesn't like Zhang Yufu very much, and she has more or less heard of some of this person's evil deeds, but no one has made trouble, so she has not investigated it carefully.
After all, Zhang Yufu's mouth is very sweet, and he can always coax her to be in a good mood.
As an emperor, you don't need to be surrounded by honest and upright officials. Of course, it can't all be "slippery officials" who can only flatter.
It's just that the court in the past few years, probably because everyone knows that she prefers to listen to good and obedient words, there are more and more slippery officials, and there are fewer and fewer upright people.
This is the biggest reason why she is eager to discover talent.
And now this Di Ying......
The old emperor's eyes slightly swept a glance at Zhang Yufu, who was kneeling on the ground, trembling all over, and did not dare to raise his head, and decided in his heart: It is time to police the current atmosphere in the court.
However, she didn't answer Di Ying's words.
She lowered her hand, patted the dragon case, and changed the subject again.
"Don't talk about this, you talk about that, talk about yourself first. As the law of the state, the five-grade official, he convened the people to try the highest civil and military officials in the state.
also incited the people to directly give more than 40 lives to death, who gave you the courage? Who connived at your lawlessness?
You profess the law, but what of the laws does it come from? Do you have me in your eyes?! ”
Hearing this, Di Ying straightened his back.
After waving his hands and saluting, he calmed his face and replied seriously.
"Returning to Your Majesty: The power of the law is not only strict, cruel, and in the terms and conditions. Rather, there is a foundation in it.
Based on the long-term affection of the people.
For those criminals, Weichen wants to be tried in the yamen, but His Majesty ...... You don't see what happened.
Above the court, the bitter lord cannot stand;
Between heaven and earth, there is no room for weeping. ”
Speaking of this, Di Ying pressed her eyes that couldn't help but be slightly red, and then said aloud:
"In the law, Ma Guangjin, She Jianhong and others have harmed the people of Bingzhou, covered the sky with one hand, and have committed countless crimes that are unsolvable and unsolvable.
It stands to reason that Wechen does not have the right and qualifications to interrogate them.
I have to be affectionate, and let all the sufferers who have been harmed by them tell in public.
Wechen did not exceed his authority to try the case, the official is the people, and the people also have the right to sue.
As for incitement, Wechen has no more.
Weichen just put a group of prisoners into the prisoner car, ready to escort them to Dadu and handed them over to the Criminal Department, but the people were angry......
Your Majesty, the people's hearts are greater than Hongchuan. Have you not seen the appearance of thousands of people shouting and shouting, hating to tear the prisoners with their teeth?
Weichen is incompetent and powerless, and there is no one under him, so he can't stop it, so he can only watch.
No, I couldn't even look at it.
As soon as the group of emotions started, Weichen was knocked unconscious and taken away by Ma Guangjin's dead soldiers. ”
As she spoke, Di Ying smacked her lips slightly, with an expression on her face that she regretted not seeing the death of Ma Guangjin and others.
Old Emperor: "......"
She was speechless.
This Di Ying is also harmonious, good and evil......
Especially the other party's attitude towards herself, she can't tell what it is.
Is there awe? There is a little bit.
Is there respect? There is a little bit.
Is there any fear? Didn't find it......
From the time he stepped into the imperial study, no, from the time he entered the palace until now, he didn't feel like he was answering correctly in front of the palace.
And like, two old friends are sitting by the lake and in the gazebo, as if they are in their hearts.
This feeling......
The old emperor's mind gradually drifted away.
She has gone through two generations of emperors, and then became an emperor herself, how long has it been since she talked about the truth?
No one dared to say anything too real to her, and she didn't say anything about her heart to anyone.
No matter what kind of identity you are, all your emotions, real feelings, etc., you can't tell anyone else.
Now, she sits in the world, but she is also very lonely.
The people of the dynasty are all her people, but her heart is always empty.
And now, suddenly, there is such a person, who suddenly fell from the sky, standing in the imperial study, standing in front of her, reasonable, even praising and disparagement, but the tone and attitude seemed to be talking to her.
didn't treat her as a sidekick, didn't work hard to please her, didn't grovel to her, and made promises.
even, criticized her, accused her, and counted her various wrongs.
It's like: everyone wants something from her, and she is the object of everyone's dependence. Then, such a person came, not to ask for her, but to give her.
This feeling is so fresh and ......
It really made her feel that it wasn't near or far.
"Di Ying, what do you think, what is the most important thing for Yu Guochao and Yu Zhen?"
The empress calmed down, tried to return to normal, and asked Di Ying.
If this person is really a genius in governing the world, then she wants to hear the other party's opinion first.
"Returning to Your Majesty."
Di Ying listened to the question, waved his hand and bowed slightly, and then opened his mouth to answer.
"When Weichen was young, he observed ants crawling all over the ground. Watch them go about their jobs and work tirelessly to serve and care for that queen.
Weichen was thinking, is it that as long as the queen ant is served well, all the little ants will be happy?
So Weichen stared at them every day.
But then I thought: No.
No matter what kind of queen ant she is, the little ants are always on the go. Their greatest joy seems to be that they can stock up on a large amount of food after feeding the queen ants.
No matter how much is too much, no matter how little, there is no panic.
Wechen was thinking, is it the same as people? Will the people, as long as they have land to plant and have enough food sources, to be happy and happy?
So, Weichen followed his family to the field every day to farm.
Unfortunately, in the end, it turned out that it was not.
Because no matter how much food is grown, you can't eat enough.
In a bumper year, the tax will be heavy, and you have to stock up on grain to prevent famine, and you don't dare to let go of eating.
In the year of famine, the tax is still heavy, and the hoarded grain must be eaten, and it is necessary to prevent the next year from becoming more famine. I don't dare to eat more.
The family's annual income comes from raising poultry, growing some vegetables, selling meat, eggs, and vegetables in exchange for salt, cloth and other daily necessities.
Those who grow vegetables can only dig a few corners and corners to plant.
And the poultry can't be fed too much. Because I can't afford to raise it, I can't afford to pay taxes.
Weichen was thinking, do you want to be an official?
Is it only when you become an official, reduce taxes, and help the people in a famine year in time, then the dynasty will be stable?
The small family of Weichen is stable?
So, Weichen studied hard, and wanted to become an official through the study examination, so that the family could live a good life.
But it's really just a trail. After all, the largest base for the destruction of the country is the common people.
And how many can enter the court? How many of them are good officials for the country and the people?
In the end, what can be saved and helped is only his own small family. ”
