To prevent omissions.
The emperor even gave this "eliminating offspring pill" to Jiang Zhiyu for inspection.
"Jiang Shishu, come and take a look. Is this the 'elimination pill' you mentioned?"
When Jiang Zhiyu saw it, he put it under his nose and sniffed it.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
[Of course, the old emperor is becoming more and more astute. He can even find this thing himself!]
But his face was still respectful.
"Your Majesty, this pill is harmful!"
Although the emperor had anticipated this, he was still very angry.
How dare Concubine Yu be so bold and presumptuous!
Not only did he order me to have no children, but he also...
If it weren't for the fact that Lao Liu's manners could still be educated and she looked 70% similar to him.
Then he really is...
I wish I could send this mother and son away immediately.
but……
He was also very curious.
If he refuses to set foot in Jiaoxiang Palace, what should he do with the evil fetus in Concubine Yu's belly?
As for this medicine...
The emperor looked at the pill that Jiang Zhiyu was still fiddling with, and his brows grew gloomy.
Let's see how the Sixth Prince performs before deciding what to do with her.
The emperor ordered Fuping to remove the pills, sat down and began to review the memorials.
After reading several books, they all talked about the Jinzhou Charity Granary, saying it was useless.
They fear that increasing taxes in other states and counties will lead to complaints among the people.
What's more, hoarding grain has both advantages and disadvantages, with both advantages and disadvantages being equally divided.
Most officials believe that Jinzhou has enjoyed good weather and good harvests over the years.
Setting up granaries is really unnecessary.
If grain is stored in excess, it will lead to heavy taxation.
The disaster year has not yet arrived, but there are already starving people everywhere.
What's more, give examples.
It was quite shocking to see.
The emperor couldn't help feeling conflicted as he read the memorials.
From his point of view, he had already witnessed Jiang Zhiyu's abilities.
As for her thoughts, it is natural to believe it and take precautions before it happens.
But the officials and the people are puzzled.
It also makes him feel embarrassed...
I couldn't help but sigh.
It is difficult to be an emperor.
His long sighs surprised the usually carefree Jiang Zhiyu.
What's wrong with the Dog Emperor? He's already found the elixir that will end his offspring, so why is he still so worried?
When the emperor heard Jiang Zhiyu's thoughts, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Heart:
This was originally the trouble caused by this little girl, and I also want to hear what she has to say.
"Zhiyu, the officials objected to the proposal to establish a charity granary in Jinzhou a few days ago. What are your thoughts?"
[Objection? What right do they have to object? They weren't the ones starving to death or being eaten by rats!]
The emperor said nothing and silently pushed the most heartbreaking memorial to Jiang Zhiyu.
Jiang Zhiyu picked it up and carefully identified it——
"...An orphan in Nanshan earns eight dou of grain per year, but the public granary collects only four dou, forcing his mother to hit her head against a pillar, while her young child is innocent..."
The more Jiang Zhiyu read, the more his brows furrowed.
It says:
The orphan and his widowed mother in Nanshan could only harvest eight dou of grain a year.
However, the Jinzhou Charity Granary required four dou of public grain.
The harsh government was more ferocious than a tiger, forcing the mother to hit herself against a pillar and die.
Leaving the child alone, crying innocently...
She only wanted to set up a charity granary to prevent the impending drought in Jinzhou.
But I don’t know that in this era...
There are so many obstacles in setting up charity granaries.
She began to feel confused and anxious.
[But if the charity granary hadn't been built, Jinzhou would have suffered a severe drought, and many more people would have died... including my third uncle...]
[Is this the one? Saving one person or saving the world...]
This problem was too difficult and she felt she couldn't afford it.
[Suddenly, I feel that the dog emperor... is a bit pitiful...]
When the Dog Emperor heard this, he raised his eyebrows and felt quite relieved.
But he still grasped the crux of the matter and suggested:
"The key point now is... the civil and military officials, as well as the people of the world, don't think it's necessary to establish a charity granary in Jinzhou. After all, Jinzhou has enjoyed good weather and harvests year after year, with few disasters."
[That's true... After all, they didn't know Jinzhou was about to suffer a severe drought. But who can predict natural disasters or man-made disasters?]
Who can?
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes lit up.
Anticipate natural disasters.
Master can!
Unexpectedly, the fraud monk Wujing that Song Shiwei found could help her so much!
It was worth it that she had trained him for a long time and worked hard to build momentum for him.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, a few days ago, my third uncle proposed to establish a charity granary in Jinzhou. It is not an outlandish idea."
"Oh? Tell me more about it."
The emperor's eyes lit up when he saw her, and he took a step back and saluted respectfully.
I couldn't help but feel a little interested.
The little guy is really a talent.
But with just a few tips, we can come up with a corresponding strategy.
Jiang Zhiyu nodded and stepped forward.
"Your Majesty is well-informed and must be aware that there is a guest master in my residence, whose skills are comparable to those of Master Tanluan."
The emperor nodded.
I thought: The national teacher’s plan is to reassure the people.
This is a very good plan.
The emperor was sincerely impressed, but he concealed his emotions and tried to persuade him:
"I have heard of the master's Dharma name... Wujing?"
"Wu Jing."
The two spoke in unison, understanding each other clearly.
"He was the one who advised your uncle that Jinzhou would be hit by a severe drought and that a charity granary should be established as soon as possible?"
"Exactly."
The emperor nodded, with a plan in mind.
When the court was held the next day, the officials indeed had another dispute.
The emperor prepared a line and said it to everyone:
"Have you heard, my dear ministers, that there is a great man in the capital, whose Dharma name is Wujing?"
The officials looked at each other and talked in low voices.
"I've heard, I've heard... that master knows the ancient times and the future..."
