Once there is one, there will be two. Seeing Xu Jinyi writing, the people around him also followed suit.
Regarding the issue of false disaster relief, most people answered that more officials should be added and supervision should be implemented at all levels to ensure that the money and food for disaster relief could reach the hands of the people.
However, Xu Jinyi did the opposite and directly pointed out that the inadequate disaster relief was not due to the court's inaction, but because there were too many corrupt officials.
The money and food for disaster relief are distributed layer by layer. If you are greedy a little and I am greedy a little, the total amount is not a small amount.
Small amounts add up to a lot, and the more officials are added, the more they will be embezzled.
It would be better to reduce the supervision of officials and only let full-time officials be responsible for disaster relief.
Regarding question two, Xu Jinyi directly pointed out that the implementation of the tax law can enrich the national treasury and ensure the payment of food and wages to border soldiers, which is a good thing.
But for farmers and wealthy businessmen, if the local government fails to enforce the rules, the consequences will be serious.
In the long run, it will only make the poor more miserable and the rich richer.
The gap between the rich and the poor will only widen.
The others would write for a while and then stop, but Xu Jinyi kept writing, which once again attracted Jun Moxie's attention.
He walked down from the pavilion and looked at the answers one by one, but no one could make Jun Moxie stop.
These people's answers were not bad, but they were flashy, empty talk, and flattery of the court.
That hypocritical flattery made Mo Junxie shake his head in disappointment.
until--
When his eyes fell on Xu Jinyi's beautiful handwriting, he was stunned.
The above content made his eyes shine.
The above content was clearly organized, each sentence was insightful, and it hit the nail on the head, causing Jun Moxie to admire it endlessly.
I didn't expect that there was a truly learned person among this group of people.
Looking at that innocent face, Jun Moxie laughed out loud.
For a moment, all eyes fell on Xu Jinyi, some with envy, some with jealousy, and some with disdain.
The servant was smart. He walked over and asked those people to leave one by one.
The scene was cleared, and Xu Jinyi put down his brush, stood up, and bowed: "I pay my respects to the Third Prince."
"No need to be so polite. What do you think of the remaining question, the scholar-farmer, merchant, and artisan?"
Xu Jinyi bowed and directly stated the answer in her heart. She discarded all the ideas that the gentry were noble and the merchants were lowly.
"Merchants are lowly, but most of the money in the national treasury comes from taxes on these merchants."
“The foundation of a prosperous country is inseparable from the development of commerce, and the development of commerce is closely related to the progress of the country.”
Jun Moxie smiled faintly. "Then, in answering your first question, you bluntly stated that our dynasty is full of corrupt officials. Are you implying that my father wasn't a good emperor? By favoring corrupt officials, are you accusing our country of making personnel mistakes?"
After these words were spoken, even the servant beside Jun Moxie broke out in a cold sweat for Xu Jinyi.
Xu Jinyi looked directly at Jun Moxie, his tone neither humble nor arrogant: "I am just answering truthfully."
Mo Junxie looked at her steadily, suddenly laughed out loud, and reached out to pat Xu Jinyi on the shoulder.
"Okay, this prince likes your honesty."
In this way, Xu Jinyi successfully stayed in the Third Prince's Mansion.
Mo Junxie is not a stingy person. Such a talented person should be given preferential treatment.
So Xu Jinyi's room was arranged in the side hall of his room.
Noticing the patches on his clothes, he waved his hand and asked the butler to prepare clothes for him.
She changed into her dear's moon-white robe and tied her hair with a jade crown, which added a touch of nobility to her beautiful face.
In the study, Xu Jinyi stood quietly by and ground ink for Jun Moxie.
Although Jun Moxie was writing, his peripheral vision was always observing Xu Jinyi.
Seeing that she was so young, but had a calmness that was not her nature, he raised his eyebrows.
"Mo, Yi, Jin, who gave you your names? What do they mean?"
Xu Jinyi's eyes flashed: "My mother gave me this name. Don't dwell on the past, the future will be full of flowers."
Jun Moxie nodded: "Not a bad name."
After saying that, his brows furrowed again.
"Is there something bothering you, Your Highness? I am willing to share your worries."
Mo Junxie glanced at her and his voice turned cold. He thought she was the kind of person who liked to show off, so he threw the problem that was bothering him to her.
"Spring is coming soon. Floods have plagued the Jiangnan region for years, resulting in countless casualties."
"The imperial court provides disaster relief every year and allocates funds to repair dams, but the flood problem remains unsolved."
"There's been a lot of rain in that area, and the reinforced embankments have been washed away by the floods. Do you think there's any way to solve this problem permanently?"
Xu Jinyi walked up to him and his eyes fell on the river in Jiangnan on the table.
Xu Jinyi was born young, with skin so fine that there was no blemish on his face. When he put on expensive clothes, he looked like a real nobleman.
Those radiant eyes are so dazzling that one can't take their eyes off them.
His little servant seemed to be very good-looking.
Fortunately, it's a boy. If it was a girl, and she came from a poor family, such an appearance would probably bring a lot of trouble.
Xu Jinyi looked serious, but no one thought Xu Jinyi could come up with any solution.
After all, this issue has troubled the court for many years, and no one has come up with any good solution.
Because the map was right in the center of Jun Moxie, Xu Jinyi was so engrossed in it that he moved his feet slowly, pushing Jun Moxie aside without even noticing.
Jun Moxie shook his head and chuckled upon seeing this.
After all, he is just a child and is fearless.
Of course, such a straightforward personality is more to his liking, at least he is not a person with a heavy mind.
Much better than those who are flashy and only flatter him.
After a moment, Xu Jinyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she smiled, pulling Jun Moxie's arm.
"Your Highness, I have an idea. Take a look here."
"This area is at a low level, so the dam breaks down only once a year and this area becomes a pond."
"All we think about is repairing the levees every year, praying that the rain stops and that the levees hold."
"But this is not a permanent solution."
Jun Moxie nodded. Of course he knew all this.
After a pause, Xu Jinyi continued, "We are all trapped. You need to amplify your thinking logic and break out of this circle."
"We will find that it is better to unblock than to block, and it is better to release than to be trapped."
Jun Moxie didn't agree at first, but after listening to Xu Jinyi's words, he suddenly understood and was enlightened.
The problem that had troubled him for so long seemed to be solved in an instant.
"You're right. The reason the levees were breached was because of the constant flooding."
"In the past, we only thought about how to plug the gap and never thought about diverting the floodwaters to the sea."
"If we dig channels to relieve the pressure on the levees and divert the raging floodwaters into the sea, the flood disaster can be resolved."
"As long as the river channel is dug, the flood problem can be solved."
"Although the project is large and costs a lot of money, it is definitely a permanent solution."
