Chapter 352 Cai Cai is the most talkative
Queen Dugu asked, "Tell me, how did Yang Ze make the people rich?"
Cai Cai thought for a while and said, "There are many ways. There are many rich families in Qiuzhou who have been robbed of their property. He said he would pay it back, but the property was not returned, but the wasteland was used to pay the amount. In this way, the rich families came. The ordinary people were willing to give them land because their houses were burned. Of course, they were willing to come over. Yang Ze also asked them to help each other and build a big village..."
She told me about how Yang Ze cheated on Gongyang Liu in the state.
When the Queen Dugu heard this, she smiled and said, "Isn't this equivalent to selling wasteland to a wealthy family..." But when she said this, her face darkened again, and she said, "That Jumotara is really hateful. I will never let him go back to the sudden realm. Let him chant sutras in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda until he dies!"
Cai Cai nodded and said, "Yes, if you don't let him go back, you have to let Khan of Jue take out the money to compensate the people who have lost their homes. Yang Ze said that it would be absolutely impossible to do if you don't squeeze the Khan of Jue. By the way, the emperor's grandmother, the first batch of treasures from Khan of Jue were sent. They were a large plate of pearls, which were filled with gold plates. The largest one was as big as a pigeon egg. Unfortunately, I didn't carry it with me when I entered the palace, otherwise I would have given it to the emperor's grandmother!"
Queen Dugu smiled and knew that the plate of pearls was the favorite thing of Khan suddenly, and she said: "The emperor's grandmother has not loved you well over the years. The plate of pearls will be given to you as a dowry!"
She made a joke about her granddaughter. As long as she mentioned the dowry, son-in-law, etc., her granddaughters would look shy, and she really wanted to see it on Caicai's face.
But Caicai didn't look embarrassed at all, let alone shy. She even dared to ride a horse to look for the prairie alone, let alone the dowry.
Cai Cai clapped her hands and smiled and said, "Okay, thank you for the reward of the emperor. If there are any other good things, the emperor will give it to my child!" She is innocent and cute, but she is not polite at all for the benefit!
Queen Dugu was stunned at first, but she didn't expect Caicai to say this, then laughed and said, "You child, really look like I did back then. I never refused to give up the reward from the late emperor, and I was very happy. In this way, the late emperor is happy and I will reward you again next time!"
Speaking of the late emperor, her husband, her expression slightly darkened. It is estimated that she will go to see the late emperor in a short time. She is old and I don’t know if she will wake up tomorrow if she lies down to sleep tonight!
Cai Cai tilted her head and said, "Is the late emperor the emperor the grandfather? Is he heroic and wise? I heard from my father that the emperor's grandfather mentioned it. He always said that the emperor's grandfather is the most heroic and wise person in the world."
Queen Dugu did not agree immediately. She knew best what kind of person her husband was. Yingwu was absolutely impossible, and she was always sick, let alone wise. If he was wise, how could he take over the Li family's territory? Even if he died early, as long as he was a little wise, he would have to keep a backup plan!
But in the hearts of the children and grandchildren, the emperor's grandfather must be heroic and wise. Queen Dugu didn't want to deny this, so let the children and grandchildren think so. She nodded, stroked Caicai's long hair, and said, "Yes, your emperor's grandfather is the most heroic and wisest person in the world. It's a pity that you have never seen him!"
Speaking of this, Queen Dugu suddenly thought that among her sons, the one who looks the most like her husband was the eldest son Li Yan, and the one who looks the most like her was the eldest princess. Apart from their surnames Li, these two children have no similarities.
When she thought of her children, she began to think of her heirs again. This question has always troubled her and made her unable to eat well and sleep. She casually said: "Caicai, you said, who do you hope to be the emperor in the future?"
She had never asked anyone else about this question, and others dared not mention it in front of her, because as long as the next emperor was involved, it was said that Queen Dugu would die. Not to mention this question, if you can say it out loud, you can think about it in your heart, and it would definitely be a taboo of Queen Dugu. She was clamoring, but she was never merciful, but today, she asked Caicai.
Caicai is not like other grandchildren. When she hears this question, she will say that the emperor's grandmother will live for a hundred years. Even if we are gone, the emperor's grandmother will still be there. Such nonsense, there is no nutrition.
She thought for a moment and said, "I still hope my father can be the emperor!"
This answer was beyond the expectations of Queen Dugu. Not only did it not say that the emperor's grandmother lived for a hundred years, but she directly recommended her father. This was something that she really expected.
Queen Dugu asked, "Why? Is it because he is your father?"
Yang Ze once told Cai Cai that once the issue of the throne is involved, no matter what the problem is, no matter what the reason, you must directly say that Li Yan is the most suitable, because only when Li Yan becomes the emperor can Cai Cai survive. No one else can guarantee Cai Cai's safety. Telling out the thoughts in your heart will be the best, and not pretending to be humble. The most unfair thing is to say that others are suitable!
Cai Cai remembers this very clearly. She said: "Because only when the father becomes the emperor can the child live and will not be charged with any crime. He dies inexplicably. The child does not want to die, and the child wants the father to be the emperor!"
Queen Dugu was silent for a while before saying, "But if a kind-hearted person becomes the emperor, he will not harm you!"
Cai Cai shook her head and said, "It may be a kind heart, maybe it is pretending to be the emperor, so she pretends to be kind. After becoming the emperor, she will no longer pretend to be kind. And even if he is kind, then others, if others want to do evil, then as long as they are charged, the child will still be unable to escape death. No matter how kind a person is, no one will be allowed to usurp the throne. Even if the child is not capable of usurpating the throne, he will be punished, what, what..."
"What's wrong with no words!" Queen Dugu said softly.
She remembered the uncle of the late emperor, who was such a loyal minister. In order to make the late emperor ascend the throne, she did not hesitate to turn against all those who opposed him. But because he was too loyal and blocked his own way, the uncle was charged and killed by himself. What a kind person the late emperor was, but his loyal uncle was so sad that he had no choice but to himself.
It is not necessary to pretend to be kind. True kindness is still too luxurious for an emperor!
Naicai said: "Yes, it's just that I have no words!"
She didn't know that after only saying a few words, she completely rejected what Li Zhenglong was going to do. Instead, she also led the firepower to Li Zhenglong. She just followed what Yang Ze taught her and added her own understanding, and said it without reservation.
Cai Cai said again: "The father of the child is kind, but kind, but he will not listen to others. The father's favorite thing is to keep it the same, just like when we lived in the west of Zhenxi, there has been no change in the family for many years. He even picked up a cup and put it back wherever he wanted to go. He would be unhappy when he changed the place, and his mother could not do anything about him. So if he became the emperor, then what will happen now and what will happen in the future? No one will die. Of course... no one will live better than now. Anyway, nothing will change, that's right!"
After she said this, she looked at Empress Dugu. She didn't know if what she said was right, but it was all the truth. Li Yan was in the west of Zhenxi, and nothing had changed for more than ten years. In fact, even if he wanted to change, he couldn't change anything. A prisoner under house arrest, if Yang Ze had not gone, he would still not have a garden. Even if he could only enjoy the shade, he could only be under the big tree in his yard. It would be impossible to go out to enjoy the shade, but everything was the same!
The Dugu Queen had no expression on her face and sighed in her heart. Her eldest son was still the same as before. She could do anything and nothing. Anyway, it would be fine if it was okay, but nothing would happen. Whenever there was something wrong, he would get angry and his ability to adapt was extremely poor.
But isn’t it better to keep it the same? At least for the current generous country, don’t cause turmoil, and don’t kill each other. The best way is to kill blood flowing into a river.
Queen Dugu was silent for a long time before saying, "It's time to assist him with a loyal and capable minister who doesn't blame him, but where can I find such a minister?" She said to herself.
Loyalty is a must, capable, and it is also a must. Not complaining means that some of the blame must be taken by the ministers and the emperor maintains his image. This last point is the most difficult to achieve. Generally speaking, there are very few ministers who do not complain. These days, ministers are well-known and refuse to take the blame. However, ministers who are willing to take the blame are often not very loyal and often have purpose.
Cai Cai's eyes lit up and she said, "Yang Ze is fine. He is absolutely loyal and very capable. When it comes to the blame, he always takes the initiative. He often says that those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Anyway, others think he is cunning, so he simply doesn't defend himself. Moreover, he is very good to those who have helped him, and he will not kill all those who offend him, otherwise Lao Jiu can survive until now!"
Queen Dugu smiled and said, "You are really a child..." and didn't say anything else. She wanted to see why Yang Ze was loyal and capable, and she didn't complain. It was just a little bad. Yang Ze didn't seem to be cruel enough. People who are not cruel enough can't be prime minister...
Hey, thinking of this, Queen Dugu suddenly felt funny. When she wanted Li Yan to inherit the throne and when she planned to cultivate Yang Ze, it was all because of her little granddaughter that she had brought her thoughts in a wrong way!
However, it is also good to have a capable minister!
Queen Dugu called Liang Dazhong and said, "Tomorrow morning, you will send someone to ask about Kumodara and see how Yang Ze is doing. If it is done well, then downgrade him to the level of the ninth rank, and let him take office in Wannian County and become this county magistrate!"
