[True and False Heiresses + Mind Reading + Gossiping + No Romance + Slacker Life]
Yue Fuguang died hastily while saving someone.
Then, for the same reason, she was bound by a merit syst...
hiss!
Emperor Mingxi accidentally plucked two hairs from his beard while his hand was trembling.
Emperor Mingxi: My hand slipped!
Officials: Your Majesty, you've overdone it!
The Crown Prince stroked his smooth chin: "Was my reaction a little too calm when I heard the news that I was in danger?"
His ministers and he himself already knew these things, so he wasn't very worried.
The only thing they can't figure out is why the Junior Master suddenly told them so much. Did he change his mind about them and want to help Dayan?
It was because of today's stabbing that she was completely disappointed, and she was giving her last reminder before leaving, to preserve the memories of the many days they had spent together!
【Master, why did you suddenly tell the emperor all this? Aren't you afraid he'll charge you with spreading heresy?】
Weren't we supposed to just watch him build a tall building and then ignore him when it collapses?
Why did you change your mind and warn them earlier? Look at these people; they don't seem like they'd listen to advice!
Emperor Mingxi: What does it mean to punish the crime of spreading seditious rumors and misleading the public? The Grand Tutor is willing to explain it clearly, so we no longer have to do everything in secret. We are overjoyed!
Who dares to punish her!
The civil and military officials tried their best to straighten their expressions and retorted to the divine artifact that they wouldn't listen to any advice.
They're so easy to persuade, okay?
As for the building building and the building collapsing, it was windy outside, and they...didn't hear it!
"This is because they have received too much incense offering. We are taking this opportunity to give them a warning, which can be considered as settling the karmic debt."
Today's events have left me somewhat annoyed. It would be best if the Emperor could punish me for spreading heresy and misleading the public.
We now have a perfect excuse to leave this place. From here, the world is our oyster, and we can go anywhere!
Emperor Mingxi and his ministers: You think you can just abandon us and run away? Don't even think about it!
The Minister of Revenue was the first to jump out and ask, "When and where did the drought that the Junior Tutor mentioned occur? My Ministry of Revenue should prepare accordingly."
"Doesn't Minister He even bother to verify this?"
He Hongguang shook his head firmly, "No need to verify, I trust the words of the Junior Tutor."
As he spoke, he bowed to Yue Fuguang as a way of thanking her for her frankness.
Wang Shoushen chimed in, "I also believe that what you say, Grand Tutor, is not an exaggeration. If there is anything else, please speak freely, Grand Tutor. Our Hongnong Temple also wants to make preparations in advance for all the people of the world."
Seeing that his ministers had all expressed their opinions, Emperor Mingxi quickly said, "Fuguang, I also believe you! I also want to thank you for your frankness on behalf of the people of the world."
Xie Zhiyan chimed in, "Yes, Master, if there are any similar reports in the future, please be sure to speak frankly."
As he spoke, he rose and bowed deeply to Yue Fuguang, saying, "On behalf of all the people of the world, I thank the Junior Tutor for his warning."
Yue Fuguang raised his hand and said, "Your Highness, there's no need for such formalities. Since you all trust me, I will speak frankly."
She scanned the crowd, her gaze finally settling on Emperor Mingxi. "Your Majesty, the severe drought occurred in the spring of the eighth year of the Yuankang era. In fact, signs of drought had been present since the early winter of the seventh year of the Yuankang era."
By the spring of the eighth year of the Yuankang era, not a single drop of rain had fallen, and people across the land were alarmed to realize that a severe drought had struck. As for the extent…”
She looked at everyone solemnly and said, "From Beili in the north to Qingzhou in the east, and to Xiqiang in the west, it is the southern region with the most abundant rainfall. At first, some areas of Nanzhao and Nanyue were also experiencing drought, but later, both countries experienced torrential rains for several months."
Of the six kingdoms, three suffered from drought, only the Dongyi suffered from typhoons and floods, while the Nanzhao and Nanyue experienced drought followed by floods.
Although they already knew, everyone's expressions were still very unpleasant when Yue Fuguang said it himself today.
The bad news was confirmed, and there was no turning back. Although they had been prepared, no one knew how to speak for a moment.
With the entire country affected by the disaster, how can they provide relief? And with their neighbors also suffering, the danger is even greater.
They couldn't resist the urge to snatch it from the neighbor next door, knowing that the other person would only want more.
Before they could think any further, Yue Fuguang continued, "As for the duration of the drought, there has been no rain for two to three years. I hope Your Majesty and the gentlemen will make preparations as soon as possible."
At that time, with the five stars in disarray, not only will there be internal instability, but the borders will also be far from peaceful.
Seeing everyone's silence, Yu Chongshan said, "Fuguang, the Dayan Dynasty has corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes that you provided. If we plant more of these high-yield grains over the next two years, is it possible to overcome this difficulty?"
"Yes, yes, we also have precious grain!" Emperor Mingxi echoed repeatedly, looking at Yue Fuguang with hope and saying, "Fuguang, Minister Yu is right. With these, our people of Dayan should have no worries, right?"
"Then it depends on how well Your Majesty and the officials promote and manage it. Good things also need good policies and strong execution from top to bottom. Your Majesty, the people are the foundation."
Even if a wealthy family experiences a drought for three consecutive years, they will not go hungry.
They naturally understood the implication.
Yue Fuguang left Da Lei behind, waving his sleeves and departing, leaving Emperor Mingxi and his ministers alone to discuss countermeasures until late at night.
At this point, Yue Fuguang made the drought a public issue, and after that, the Dayan rulers and their ministers paid even more attention to the imperial estate and the three kinds of grain on it.
During this period, Yue Fuguang again sent a growth-promoting rain to his own estate and the imperial estate.
Thanks to the nourishing rain of the moonlight, the sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes are not only growing well, but are also expected to be harvested half a month to a month earlier than planned.
Emperor Mingxi finally managed to get a chance to enjoy a blessed rain under the guise of inspecting the newly recruited army, and was so happy that he was in a good mood for several days in a row when he went to court.
However, whether he was in a good mood or not had nothing to do with Yue Fuguang. She used the slicked-back hair from that assassination attempt to put on a long face for several days.
To please her, Emperor Mingxi finally agreed that Yue Fuguang would only need to attend court four times a month until September.
As for studies, we'll talk about that in the fall.
So at this moment, Yue Fuguang was comfortably lying on her estate, which was built according to the regulations of a royal palace. The environment was beautiful and everything suited her taste. She sighed countless times, "It's so comfortable to cool off in a big house."
In front of him was an ice chest, and beside him was a chilled watermelon, a summer essential.
On the table behind them were several vases filled with various fresh flowers that Cui Zhu and the others had picked from the mountain that morning.
No need to attend court or go to school; when hungry or thirsty, just reach out and call out, and all sorts of green and pollution-free delicacies will be served. There are flowers and orchards in front of and behind the houses.
The beautiful scenery outside the room, the beautiful woman inside, the moonlight floating in my heart, I sighed countless times, this is the life that gods should live!
“Fu Guang, Second Brother sent a message saying that a number of suspicious people have been spotted near the camp recently.”
Sweating profusely, the two sisters, Yu Ningxin and Yun Ningxuan, arrived hand in hand. As soon as they entered, the impatient Yu Ningxuan picked up a slice of watermelon from the table and started eating it.
While eating, he didn't forget to tell her the latest news he had received from Sanchadi.
"Sweet!" Yu Ningxuan could still pretend outside, but when she was with Yue Fuguang, her true colors were revealed.
He ate watermelon with great gusto, saying, "My second brother said that the watermelons in his place are incredibly sweet, but I think even the sweetest ones can't compare to those in Fuguang Village."
"Didn't I have Qingzhu and the others send some to your and Grandmother's and Mother's courtyards?" They look so hungry, as if they haven't eaten yet.
