Chapter 308 Do you still dare to share my worries?
Chu Yian was silent for a moment, raised his head, and for the first time in front of the emperor, his back was so straight.
She had already thought about what to say on the way here, so she didn't even need to think too much about it now.
She bent down, her voice resounding and powerful: "Your Majesty, they bully men and women and do whatever they want. Even though I have the Duke's Mansion to protect me, I am still being humiliated like this. In their eyes, ordinary people are nothing but beasts who can be bullied, beaten, scolded, and slaughtered at will."
"Scholars do not talk about establishing a mind for heaven and earth, and officials do not think about seeking the welfare of the people."
"With so many people in this world, if everyone only thinks about their own interests, judging the propriety of others' actions based solely on their closeness to them, and ignoring the greater good of the world, then what is the meaning of the existence of worldly principles?"
The emperor looked at her quietly without saying a word.
Chu Yian straightened up, his eyes firm: "When you are in a high position in the government, you must worry about the people."
"If those adults really cared about the people, they wouldn't raise their children like this, allowing them to oppress the people at will."
"Even though I live in the inner chamber, I still want to share His Majesty's worries and do my part for the people. I believe that you all understand me..."
emperor:……
The emperor's mouth twitched fiercely.
Come on, after knowing Chu Yian for so long, he has really seen how much she likes to put people in a difficult position.
Whenever the situation becomes unfavorable to her, she starts to bully others and puts them in high positions.
Listening to what she said, if those ministers came to him to complain, it would be them who ignored the people.
Not even as good as her, a woman in the inner chamber.
Qi Qianlan's eyes lit up slightly when she looked at Chu Yian, and the corners of her lips curled up.
If you can't win, just blame others and use their own tricks.
Although he knew that this was Chu Yian's usual tactic, the emperor had to admit that what she said actually made some sense.
But he still didn't say anything, wanting to hear what else Chu Yian would say.
Chu Yian lived up to expectations and spoke a lot of great truths: "It is said that if you can't clean up your own house, how can you clean up the world? If adults can't even handle their own family affairs, how can they handle state affairs?"
"If adults truly had high moral character and set a good example, how could they raise children who only know how to bully the weak? And how could they always indulge their reckless behavior..."
The emperor was in a complicated mood and interrupted her: "Get up."
Chu Yian's eyes lit up and he quickly stood up, and Qi Ze also stood up.
The next second, the emperor said, "If you continue to talk, it will be like I failed to manage these ministers and allowed them to let their children go out and bully others."
"If I had been more restrained, the ministers would have paid more attention to the upbringing of children, and there wouldn't be so many people being bullied in Shengjing."
Chu Yian: ...
Chu Yian's mouth twitched, and he quickly denied it: "How could it be? Your Majesty, you are busy with all kinds of affairs every day, and you always consider the people. How can you have the time to care about those people?"
"They should govern their own affairs. They are the fathers and should discipline their children. You are the ruler of the world and should worry about state affairs. Each of us should perform our duties."
"So this is all their fault. They displeased you and dared to bully your people. They deserve death."
The emperor looked at Chu Yian and thought all her words were nonsense.
She completely denied the crime and didn't mention the fact that she almost beat someone to death.
An idea suddenly popped up in the emperor's mind.
Anyway, it is impossible to punish Chu Yian. No one in the Qin family can be touched now. Otherwise, wouldn’t it chill the hearts of the soldiers on the front line? And chill the hearts of the people in Shengjing?
Although he didn't want to admit it, the emperor knew very well that the people were very supportive of the Qin family.
The fundamental reason for Chu Yian’s conflict with those people today was also to protect the people.
If protecting the people is wrong, then what is right?
Since it's already like this, why not take this opportunity to win over the people? Give Qin Jiashu a few more enemies.
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that this was feasible.
Anyway, Chu Yian's bad reputation has spread after what happened today, and those young masters will have to avoid her when they see her in the future.
It would be better to use it and bring out the notoriety to the fullest.
The emperor withdrew his gaze and asked calmly, "When did you learn kung fu?"
Chu Yian answered truthfully: "After marrying Qin Sheng."
"How's your study going?"
Chu Yian thought about it and shook his head gently: "Not very good, I can't even take a few moves against the secret guards."
emperor:……
Qin Huaishu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, it's OK, but I still need more practice."
It would be good if you could get a sentence from Qinhuai Shu.
You've only been learning for a few days and you already want to fight the secret guards.
The emperor hummed, his eyes softening. "Why did you think of learning Kung Fu?"
Chu Yian thought about it. Although it was because the system gave him the skills and pills at the beginning, he wanted to go to the battlefield with Qin Sheng only after he started practicing.
I just don’t know if I can say this.
But remembering what Qin Huaishu said about the emperor liking her innocence, after a moment's hesitation, she said truthfully, "I want to fight the enemy together with Qin Sheng."
The emperor was stunned, and Qi Ze and Qi Qianlan were also stunned.
Qi Ze looked sideways at her and frowned: "Are you crazy? Do you know how dangerous the battlefield is?"
Chu Yian hummed: "So this isn't still hard training?"
The emperor's mood became even more complicated: "Since ancient times, few women have fought in battles."
He sighed, said something and then passed over the topic and returned to the main topic: "Chu Yian, you said you are willing to share my worries?"
Chu Yian immediately stood up straight, his voice resounding and powerful: "I am willing to serve Your Majesty with all my heart and soul, until my death."
The emperor's mouth twitched. "...There's no need to stop until you die. I have something I want you to do."
"You say."
The Emperor: "Since you say those young masters are ignorant and oppress the people, and no one disciplines them."
"Then starting tomorrow, I will hand them over to you."
Chu Yian:?
Chu Yian blinked, his face full of confusion.
The emperor coughed, blushing slightly as he spoke. "If something like today happens again, just punish those people. But be careful not to be so harsh."
"Also, I will have an imperial edict posted tomorrow, telling the people that if they are bullied by bullies again, they can come to you to seek justice for them."
Chu Yian's heart skipped a beat. Wait, why does the wind direction seem a little off?
The emperor looked at her with a loving look in his eyes: "Yi An, how could I not know that the young masters and young ladies of those wealthy families often do evil and oppress the people? It's just that I can't keep an eye on their harem, so it's hard for me to say anything."
"Shuntian Prefecture Governor Zhang is capable of managing this, but he also has his own difficulties. Anyone who stands out is more senior than him."
“Even if we want to seek justice for the people, our hands are tied.”
"You are different. You have the Duke of Qin's Mansion behind you..."
Before the emperor could finish his words, Qi Ze interrupted him in disbelief: "Father, you, you want her to take care of those people? Aren't you putting her in the spotlight?"
"She's so stupid, she can't handle those things."
How could this be pushing Chu Yian to the forefront? It was clearly intended to make more enemies for Duke Qin's Mansion.
Chu Yian has offended many people today. If he continues like this, I am afraid that all officials will be offended.
Moreover, Chu Yian is a woman. If she really intervenes in those matters and redresses the grievances of the people, she will be considered a serious official with real power but no reputation.
Isn't this also a great offense against the world?
Qi Ze felt a chill in his heart. He looked at Chu Yian, but Chu Yian just looked at the emperor.
He looked at Qin Huaishu anxiously again. Qin Huaishu had a smile on his face and his eyes fell on Chu Yian.
Qi Ze opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Chu Yian was not in a hurry, Qin Huaishu was not in a hurry either, he was the only one who was anxious.
Chu Yian let it go, he didn't believe that Qin Huaishu didn't see his father's intention.
Why can you still be so calm?
The emperor smiled and looked at Chu Yian: "You heard what Qi Ze said. If you accept my words, you will offend many people and may even be in danger."
"In this case, do you still dare to share my worries?"
Chu Yian swallowed and looked at the emperor with fiery eyes.
Although today's decision may push the Duke of Qin's Mansion against all officials and make it completely isolated.
But at this moment she understood the true meaning behind the emperor's actions.
Since the Duke's Mansion was isolated, he could use the people in the Mansion without any restrictions.
This is dangerous, but it is also an opportunity for the Duke's Mansion to be truly reborn through blood.
Chu Yian suppressed his excitement, turned his head to look at Qin Huaishu, and when he saw the smile in Qin Huaishu's eyes, he knew that he was not wrong.
And Qin Huaishu also wanted her to take on this job.
Chu Yian excitedly took two steps forward, swallowed his saliva, looked at the emperor with burning eyes, and asked a question that no one expected: "Is there a salary?"
