Chapter 336 Baby Ruoxi feels that Doctor Wen seems to be a little bit lacking
The Five Elements Clan, it is not true that all the tribes are in the mountains.
Each tribe of the Five Elements Clan is entrenched in the mountains, one mountain for each tribe. The foot of the mountain is where the people live, and the middle of the mountain is where the clan leaders of each tribe of the Five Elements Clan live.
On the mountain, it is a place for practicing martial arts.
"The embankment still needs to be repaired. The people live at the bottom. If it is not repaired, the people will suffer!"
Xiao Yue took her daughter and drove a carriage to the foot of the mountain in the north of the city.
"What's wrong with this embankment? Where does the annual appropriation from the court go?" Xiao Yue looked at the embankment and asked with a frown.
"This dam will probably take ten or eight years to build. So, no matter how difficult it is, where did the 50,000 taels from the court go every year?" Ci Xin looked at the badly damaged dam, sneered, turned to look at Shui Qianqiu who was hurrying over, and said.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, the Imperial Master..." Shui Qianqiu wanted to greet them one by one, including Yuan Hui, Hong Mei and others.
However, Xiao Yue interrupted him.
"What's going on? Where is the money allocated by the court? I remember that there was money allocated in the account of the Ministry of Personnel, and this amount was indeed withdrawn from the warehouse!" Xiao Yue said.
Xiao Yin had already prepared everything related to Yunzhou and Chizhou for his sister before letting her go south.
The funds allocated to Chizhou were in place, and this amount of money was not included in the corruption of the Ministry of Personnel.
Therefore, this amount of money came from the south.
"Princess, calm down. The annual 50,000 taels is actually far from enough. As you know, Chizhou is a five-element tribe, and each of the five tribes occupies it. There are many disciples in the tribe, and there is often a shortage of people. The people feel that they must eat first before they can repair the dike. Therefore, time and time again, the funds allocated by the court are used to support the people's lives." Shui Qianqiu said.
"How dare you!" On the side, Xiao Yuheng shouted coldly, "The funds allocated by the court are for designated purposes. You make decisions on your own. Do you take the court seriously?"
Xiao Yue turned her head and stopped Xiao Yuheng with her eyes. She turned her head and looked at Shui Qianqiu, and said, "Those previous ones were not decided by Chief Shui. I guess it was Chief Jin who did it!"
"Princess, you are wise!" Shui Qianqiu nodded, and said, "The people have formed a habit, so every year when the court allocates funds, they will wait. Usually, they also know that the court will allocate funds, so they will not work harder. The fields in the mountains have become barren, and the herb planting has decreased. The lives of the people are getting worse day by day!" "
Chief Shui is very smart!" Xiao Yue said lightly, turned around and walked to the other side.
The dikes have been in disrepair for many years, and some places have already collapsed. As long as there is another heavy rain, the water on the mountain will pour down, and the houses, people and livestock under the mountain will all suffer!
Shui Qianqiu and others followed Xiaoyue without saying a word.
Xiaoyue walked and walked, and Aunt Gui held the little baby Xier.
Baby Xier looked at the endless lake with a frown: "Is this lake so clean? There is not even a fish? The people are really lazy!"
"The Five Elements Clan, the people of the five ethnic groups, all think that they are raised and protected by their own clans, so they don't do anything and rely on money from above to live!" Ci Xin said.
"Heng'er, according to this palace's order, issue it, a ten-year fishing ban in the lake, and those who go into the water to fish will be severely punished!" Xiao Yue said.
Xiao Heng was just stunned for a moment, and then immediately nodded: "Yes, aunt!"
"Princess, I'm afraid the people will not agree with this!" Shui Qianqiu said.
"Hehe, as the head of the Shui tribe and the leader of the Five Elements tribe, how come you don't keep your word? Then why did you establish the Five Elements tribe? Are you free?" Yuan Hui said on the side.
Shui Qianqiu's expression was indifferent, but his eyes were a little gloomy.
"If the people's fields are all barren, they will be confiscated and given to those who like the important land. The confiscated fields will never be returned in the future, and..." Xiao Yue formulated a series of policies, which shocked the people of the Five Elements tribe.
Huo Xiongba didn't come, but the chief of the Wood Clan did. They were all shocked when they heard what Xiao Yue said.
"Your Highness, you don't know about the Five Elements Clan!" said the chief of the Wood Clan.
"I don't know about the Five Elements Clan, but I know how to govern a city. If the chiefs think I'm wrong, then..." Xiao Yue looked around for a while before saying, "You all should just bear with it!"
"Puff!" Ci Xin laughed first.
Then, Yuan Hui also smiled: "Look, the heroic girl in the military camp is back again. It's a good saying. Whether it's a city or a country, there must be rules and regulations. Chief Shui, this is the time to test you. If you can't even do this, then..."
Yuan Hui didn't say the following words. If you can't even do this, then you might as well die.
Shui Qianqiu's face was gloomy, but he didn't dare to lose his temper.
After finally walking around the dam, Xiao Yue and his party returned to the city.
Regarding the maintenance of the dam, Shui Qianqiu said that he was willing to contribute part of the silver. After all, he was the one who distributed the silver. As for how much he distributed, it was unclear.
It was distributed to each tribe according to the number of people, and then they distributed it.
Therefore, no one knows how many hands it has passed through.
The people had complaints, but Xiao Yue turned a deaf ear to them.
Ci Xin and Wen Xu went out, and they told some people about Princess Xiao Yao's actions this time.
"Don't worry, they will make a big wave!" Yuan Hui said.
"Use Dong Ju's trick!" Ci Xin said, took out a few silver bills, handed them to Xiao Yuheng, and said a few words to him.
Xiao Yuheng took the silver bills and went out.
Soon, some capable people appeared among the people, and they began to proclaim that the princess was right and that the princess was seeking welfare for the people.
Shui Qianqiu went to visit Huo Xiongba, and the chief of the Mu clan was also there.
"Why not, let the boss come out!" Although everyone calls Shui Qianqiu the eldest brother, the real boss is from the Jin clan!
"What can he solve by coming out? He still has to fight Xiaoyue. Xiaoyue is more evil than the emperor. The emperor can still put on airs, but Xiaoyue is just a woman!" Huo Xiong said domineeringly.
"When she came, the Tu tribe was directly destroyed. I don't know how to deal with it next!" Shui Qianqiu said.
"Brother, if it doesn't work, I would say, just keep Lan Keke. That girl is smart. If we keep her and let her become the leader of the Tu tribe, then she will be under our control!" Huo Xiongba said.
"It's not impossible, but that girl is not a pushover!" Shui Qianqiu shook his head and said.
