2082: proud

After the Chinese New Year, the days became warmer day by day. Green buds appeared on the withered ground. Although they were still not very conspicuous when they looked close, they seemed to be a colorful carpet spread on the earth. On the Luzhou area where the war had just ended, they saw the figure of a farmer again.

People mislead the land for a while, and people mislead the land for a year. Even if the city is now changing with the king's flag and they have changed the big boss, the farmers have to plan for their livelihood this year. The family always has to eat, and the official taxes always have to pay. No matter the big boss, in the eyes of the farmers at the bottom, how can they avoid it in the past dynasties?

Qin Feng and Min Ruoxi walked side by side on the countryside fields, following the newly appointed Luzhou County Governor Yue Kaishan.

"After walking along the way, although there have been people working in the fields and the countryside, there are many elderly, women and children!" Qin Feng said.

"That's right." Yue Kaishan nodded and said, "Luzhou has been recruiting troops continuously over the years. Most of the men who have become middle-aged have joined the army. After this battle, the most of the men in Luzhou were killed and killed. I was just about to have a chance to tell Your Majesty that those captured Luzhou soldiers and the Luzhou soldiers in the injured camp should be released as soon as possible. After letting these people go home, they can still catch up with the spring plowing."

Qin Feng was silent for a while and scratched his head a little: "It is precisely because there are too many local tyrants who have suffered too many casualties that Zhou Jiyun dared not release them so early, for fear of trouble. On this battlefield, there are many fathers, sons, brothers, and Guan Qi who went into battle together, breaking bones and tendons, and their relatives died in the battle with us. If there is no hatred in his heart, it is fake. It must be released slowly one by one to be more secure."

"What Your Majesty and General Zhou are certainly justified, but I have been a people-friendly official for so many years, but I am more aware of the psychology of these ordinary people. After such a war, those who survived were more lucky, thanks, and those who survived after the disaster were not absent. But in the end, a very small number of people could not make a big wave. Your Majesty, as long as people get into my hands, I always have a way to pick them up. In this way, it will not only waste the farming season, but also reduce the burden on the army, and be in harmony with both worlds."

Qin Feng laughed: "You are a confident person. I don't know if Zhou Jiyun knows your words, will he blame you for being ungrateful and kind and revenge him. He is thinking about you wholeheartedly. You are here to blame him for delaying your work."

Yue Kaishan's heart was thrilled. The emperor seemed to say something casually, but God knew how many layers of meaning there were in this sentence, so Dang Yi could only laugh a few times.

"Real-time farming season is impossible to be mistaken. Now it is a military emergency. We cannot learn from the past to disperse the army and sow the spring farming first. Once it is wrong, it will only be true that chaos will arise in late autumn. The most terrible thing is that people have no food to eat. Hunger and cold are aroused by the will of stealing, and they are forced to do nothing! Anyone who can see hope will not take risks." Yue Kaishan sighed: "When I first went to Cenzhou, there were bandits everywhere, so I caught some, and I was originally going to be a warning to others.

But when I saw the arrested thieves, to be honest, I really didn't think it was true. There were even old men in their fifties and sixties, and they had not grown up. They were all hungry. They were hungry. Before I knew it, they escorted them to the farm to do farm work. After a few years, they were very stable. Later, they were released and divided into fields and houses, and became the most staunch supporters of the government. No matter what the court wanted to do, they were all in the forefront."

"Since you are so confident, you can do this!" Qin Feng waved his hand, "I am far inferior to you in this regard. Since you say you can do it, then do it."

"Your Majesty has killed me, Your Majesty has seen Wanli clearly and has insight into the hair..." Before Yue Kaishan finished speaking, Qin Feng waved his hand to interrupt.

"Do it, you Yue Kaishan doesn't have to say these insincere words. What's the point of seeing Wanli? If that's true, I'm not even aware of what the emperor of Qi is doing now? Well, I think the queen must be unresponsive." Qin Feng quietly threw out a hidden yellow joke, but for an emperor like Min Ruoxi, it was tantamount to playing the piano for a cow. She didn't understand it at all. As a man, Yue Kaishan could only smile dryly and couldn't answer.

"I see Wanli in the clear and insightful way. I often hear it. Is there anything wrong?" Min Ruoxi asked with her head tilted. People in her early forties still showed the girl's cuteness, but not artificial, which made Yue Kaishan extremely envious. This is really a pair of fairy couples. Speaking of the men now, there are a few men who are not three wives and six concubines, but the most noble person in the Ming Dynasty has spoiled such a woman in her whole life. No wonder the Empress is still as bright as a girl in her early forties. Standing with the eldest princess Qin Wen, unlike a mother and daughter, but like a pair of sisters.

"Since you have made so many preparations, I think you have prepared enough, right?" Qin Feng just wanted to have fun, mainly because he was afraid that he would accompany Min Ruoxi to relax, but Yue Kaishan chased him out to talk about business, and was worried that Min Ruoxi was unhappy. Unfortunately, he met an audience with no knowledge of Shijing culture and was confused. However, Yue Kaishan, who could have played the role of supporting actor, dared to explain the meaning of this to Min Ruoxi. With one blow, Qin Feng turned his mind back to business.

"Speaking of this, Murong Yuan, the governor of Murong County is really an amazing person. Although he is young, he acts without any leakage. He wants to do everything. When I talked to him about this, he actually told me that he had prepared all the farm tools and seeds he should prepare. Even if he was a livestock, he also prepared a lot. However, because the army was about to transfer to the military supplies, the number was not large." Yue Kaishan shook his head and sighed: "Murrong Hai was a rude man, but he gave birth to such a son with such a delicate orifice."

"The innate genes are important, but more importantly, the acquired education." Qin Feng said with ease, "Murong Yuan lived with his mother in the Ming Dynasty since he was a child, went to the school of my Ming Dynasty, and received my Ming Dynasty education. He graduated from the capital hall all the way. Look at the barbarians distributed all over the Ming Dynasty. If he didn't say it, can you tell what kind of race they are now? Not to mention these barbarians who were originally on our continent, even those people on the Western Continent who have lived here for a long time, we can bring them over. Our Han culture seems peaceful, but in fact, assimilating people from different ethnic groups is really silent, and they transformed people without realizing it."

Yue Kaishan nodded repeatedly. After being in contact with him for a long time, he would know that some words that they could not understand popped up from his mouth from time to time, but the general meaning was still understood. Everyone had learned to automatically filter out those nouns that did not understand.

"Is this also the reason why Your Majesty is working hard to run a school in the Western Continent? What Your Majesty thinks and considers the long-term, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a matter of thousands of years."

"You are getting more and more flattering!" Qin Feng said with a smile.

"This is not flattery, this is what I say in my heart." Yue Kaishan said sincerely, "There are many things that cannot be seen in front of me, but over time, the power gradually becomes obvious. When I was still in Qi State, I heard that you invested huge sums of money to start education. At that time, I laughed at Your Majesty. I said that the people can be used to it, but not to know it. I said that you are digging your own grave, but today, I know how shallow and ignorant I was at the beginning."

"The foolish people can only seek temporary benefits, but the wise people will be a success for thousands of years!" Qin Feng was also proud.

While he was speaking, there were sounds of horse hooves coming from afar. Qin Feng looked back and was stunned. He had a good eye. Although he was still far away, he had seen a group of cavalry guarding the Minister of Rites Cheng Weigao in the distance.

This is a person who is keen and tactful. He also made great contributions when the Ming Dynasty was first established. Later, although there were some illegal things in Yongping County, Qin Feng also knew very well that these officials who had been entrenched in the local area for many years were inevitable, and sometimes they could only be confused.

Fortunately, Cheng Weigao was also very conscious. As soon as the emperor summoned him, he immediately returned to Yuejing without saying a word. Even though the power of the Ministry of Rites was stripped away by Qin Feng, he still had no resentment, but instead worked diligently in front of the Shangshu.

Of course, he was not willing to be lonely and wanted to do something. In Qin Feng's opinion, this is a very normal thing. If he doesn't want to do things, it will really make him unhappy. As for Cheng Weigao, he unknowingly had certain rights, and even when he was still doing these things, he continued to expand these rights. Qin Feng also felt that it didn't matter. As for the rights, he naturally had to fight for them. You can hold some things into your arms, and do them well, and even go further to make everyone think that it is natural for you to have these rights, that is your ability.

Cheng Weigao did a good job this time. He could have thought about organizing those performing teams to the front line to express his condolences. To be honest, Qin Feng had never thought about it himself. After hearing from Tian Kang, the effect was actually very good. Since Cheng Weigao has come here, I believe that the beautiful singing and dancing troupes of beautiful women will naturally come with them.

Several people stopped and turned around and waited for those people to approach. Min Ruoxi was a little unhappy. She had originally thought that she had come out for an outing, but the ministers rushed over one after another.
