Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 645: ：To attract good ideas
Chapter 647: To attract others
The emperor is just throwing bricks to attract jade. My cousin is the "brick", and Xie Mansion is the "jade" behind.
Yu Youyao was granted the title of County Lord, and Xie Hui was the first to bear the brunt of it. The Xie Mansion had rich heritage and was very prestigious among other businessmen. Even the Xie Mansion generously donated money, so would other businessmen still cover it up?
Scholars, peasants, industrialists, and merchants were the lowest class of businessmen. Once they angered the court, they could easily confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans if they randomly picked a mistake such as tax evasion and smuggling.
If you have money, you must also have a life.
Old Madam Yu glanced at Minghuang's imperial edict with a sarcastic look on her face: "Every imperial edict issued by the emperor has to go through tedious and even complicated craftsmanship, with dozens or hundreds of links. Every link is... Relevant people will carry out the craftsmanship, supervision and inspection, and only after it is confirmed to be correct, it will be secretly sent to the next step. Each imperial edict can take at least three to five days, or at most ten days to complete," she said without saying a word. It was also ironic: "It has only been a few days since the flower party at the Rongjun Prince's Mansion, and the imperial edict has already arrived at our home."
In order to prevent someone from falsely passing on the imperial edict, the imperial edict manufacturing process has set up complex process links. The links are multiplied, detailed, and differentiated, which avoids the possibility of exploiting loopholes.
If someone wants to cheat, it is impossible to fake dozens or hundreds of links at the same time. If someone wants to bribe people, it is impossible to bribe hundreds of them at the same time.
The first word "Feng" in the imperial edict must be surveyed in advance to determine the position of the auspicious clouds in the sky on that day, and then it can be finally determined by Zhaojun Quantian.
After so many steps, an imperial edict takes a lot of time.
Therefore, the emperor's imperial edicts are issued after careful consideration. In case of emergencies, the imperial edicts are issued first and then the imperial edicts. They are never prepared in advance.
It can be seen that the emperor has been coveting Yaoyao's money from a long time ago, and the imperial edict has been prepared for a long time. He will issue it when the time is right, and the flower party at Rongjun Prince's Mansion is a good reason.
Yu Youyao also thought of this and said: "The lord of Shaoyi County, the word Yi is Tong [濇], the posthumous title of the Zhou Dynasty Book says: "Rouke is Yi, gentleness, saintliness and kindness are called Yi", and the person who is expected to benefit by being dedicated and long-term is named "Yi". From one thing, one can be dedicated to one thing for a long time, and one can be beautiful after a long time. Therefore, the person who is Yi is pure and virtuous before the Yi, and when he is poor, he will be able to achieve it, which means virtue, kindness, and beauty."
It's just that the word "濇" is too heavy, and the word "濇" should not be used to give a title, so we changed "濇" to "义". Although the characters are different, the meanings are the same.
Not only is he rich in virtues, but he also demonstrates his etiquette!
Yi, beauty!
The Dog Emperor is very capable of scheming against a person.
The atmosphere is a bit solemn...
Zhou Linghuai glanced at Yu Youyao: "In the grains, the winter wheat has suffered a drought, and there is no food to harvest. At this time, there is no harvest, and the people can still eat wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger."
As soon as he spoke, the expressions of Yu Youyao and Mrs. Yu became very solemn.
Zhou Linghuai continued: "Rice, millet, and millet are all planted in March and April. It has not rained. In two days, it will be the summer solstice. When the rice reaches the summer solstice, it is difficult to transplant rice. Although the crops have grown, they will not produce ears, and they have mistakenly planted them now. Although the people have switched to drought-tolerant beans, the beans also need rain to ensure the harvest. The people are counting on the grain harvest in the second half of the year to survive. But in the second half of the year, grain production will be reduced on a large scale, and famine will definitely occur across the country."
Every time there is a famine, there are people dying of hunger everywhere, mourning everywhere, and every ten houses are empty.
The tragedy of exchanging children and eating them will also happen one after another.
Just thinking about that scene, Yu Youyao felt frightened: "Is it serious enough?"
Being in Beijing, what she saw and knew was that she was inevitably deceived by the illusion of peace and prosperity in the capital. She did not expect that there were already many places where famine was serious.
Zhou Linghuai nodded: "The imperial court did not show the importance of the drought by not releasing money for disaster relief. Officials from various places have made false reports, concealed reports, lied reports, or failed to report. It has become the norm. Even some Qingliu reported serious disasters. It is also an individual area that cannot attract the attention of the court. You must know that in small-scale disasters, the prefectural and county governments will provide relief to the victims, and then report to the court, and the courtiers will give commendations and rewards. Only serious disasters require the court to provide disaster relief. In fact, Last autumn and winter, many people starved to death across the country. Now in April and May, it is the winter wheat harvest, but the winter wheat has suffered..."
Yu Youyao felt cold in her heart: "The winter wheat harvest was gone, the disaster was out of control, and even expanded. Officials from various places could not cover it up and had to report it to the court. That's why the Queen Mother raised money to provide disaster relief."
The Zhou Dynasty was really rotten to the core.
Those who are officials are greedy and ineffective, and do not seek the benefit of the people.
Those who are kings play with power and do not think about governing the government, but only seek immortality.
Those who serve as ministers fight internally and externally, and have cliques and cliques. They only care about fighting for power and do not care about the life and death of the people.
The king is not the king, the ministers are not the ministers, and the people are not the people.
This drought is a natural disaster and a man-made disaster, and it is also the anger of God and people.
Old Madam Yu also felt sad: "Amitabha, the imperial court's spending is excessive, the government is corrupt, and natural and man-made disasters have made the people miserable." When she said this, she went to the palace and couldn't help but feel worried about her granddaughter's plan. Anger: "The ruler is unkind, harming the heaven and earth from above, causing harm to the people below, and incurring the anger of heaven and mankind!"
Yu Youyao felt heavy: "Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have labeled me as a virtuous person. It is a matter of great justice to raise funds for disaster relief. I not only want to donate, but I also want to donate more, but..."
Will this money really be used to relieve the victims?
Zhou Linghuai understood what she meant: "Whether the Queen Mother worships Buddha all the year round is truly charitable or not, it remains to be discussed, but that is not important. What is important is that everyone in the world knows that the Queen Mother worships Buddha~IndoMTL.com~ is compassion Heartfelt, the fund-raising is in the name of relieving the victims. Since the Queen Mother is taking the lead in this matter, then the relief of the victims will not be false."
But how much of it will be used on the victims remains to be discussed.
No matter how many there are, it is good to save just one.
Yu Youyao understood immediately after hearing this: "So, if it's not for anything else, but for the thousands of victims of the Zhou Dynasty, I must donate this money."
——
On the way back to the backyard, thinking that Yu Youyao had been named the Lord of Shaoyi County, Yu Jianjia felt congested, feeling depressed for a while, and felt like he couldn't breathe.
The soft eyes suddenly became dark, and slippery, sticky emotions surged under them.
Yu Jianjia couldn't help coughing.
Bai Ye quickly stepped forward to help her: "Are you feeling unwell?"
"Don't worry," Yu Jianjia shook his head. Seeing no one around, he couldn't help but look back. Yu Qingning, who was behind her, said softly: "Eldest sister has been named the head of Shaoyi County. This is the first time I have experienced such a big battle. I am probably too nervous and a little weak."
