Chapter 1169 1169: Prisoner’s Dilemma (Part 2) [Please vote](1/2)
"Prisoner's Dilemma?"
Gu Chi couldn't hide the worry on his face.
"Do you and Kang Jishou know that they are 'prisoners'?"
Shen Tang said: "I don't know if they know."
"If they don't know, both of them will definitely die." Gu Chi originally thought that the two enemies of Bei Mo and Gao Guo were troublesome enough, but he didn't expect that the one who really bothered him was his own people, "My lord!"
After Shen Tang finished approving a memorial, he raised his eyes to reassure Gu Chi.
"We can only wait for news from them now. Whether it's good or bad, it's their own choice, and we can't interfere."
Gu Chi made a shocking statement: "Then we will destroy them both."
It is not feasible to destroy an exit alone.
So what if two of them are abolished and the consummation ceremony is forcibly suspended?
It may not be impossible!
Shen Tang was almost confused by this sentence, and laughed and said: "You still don't understand Wei Heng very well. If you give up the results of your hard-earned cultivation just to survive, it will be more uncomfortable for her than killing her. If you are in the second She will not survive if she has to choose between them."
Just because Shen Tang knew everything, she was helpless.
Gu Chi opened his mouth and wanted to say something else.
I don’t know where to start with the thousands of words.
Seeing his expression, Shen Tang said a few words of comfort: "Actually, there is no need to be so pessimistic. On the bright side, people trapped in the 'Prisoner's Dilemma' have almost no way out, because human nature will make them do the 'smart' thing that best suits their own interests." Choice, but you forgot that the 'prisoners' in the 'Prisoner's Dilemma' failed because they did not trust each other enough, so they chose win-win or lose-lose. But Ji Shou and Wei Heng are different..."
They have enough trust base.
It may not be possible to defeat human nature.
This is one of the reasons why Shen Tang can sit still.
"It's a blessing in disguise to take advantage of this opportunity to let the two of them get out of their relationship completely." Shen Tang spent a few words reviewing several memorials, and the more she reviewed, the more irritated she became. Missing Kang Shi and the two of them was enough to make her irritated and distracted. , he actually asked her to approve these rubbish memorials that smelled worse than foot bindings and lasted longer. This was simply a slow murder of her. "All of these will put you on the yellow list!"
Shen Tang has a small notebook here.
The evaluation of each minister is recorded in detail. Anyone who is not pleasing to the eye will be put on the yellow list, and the Ministry of Personnel will focus on keeping track of them during the assessment.
"Have they sinned against the Lord? Or have they done things poorly?"
All the Lord's thoughts were cursing.
Gu Chi didn't know what happened to these people.
Shen Tang said: "They talk too much and they offend me. Don't you know how many memorials I have to approve all day long? I have the energy to watch them flattering me word by word! Even if an old cow in the county gives birth to twins, they can write it down. He also said This is my credit! What credit can I have? Am I a bull that can help cows get pregnant? Let them talk more about performance governance. See what they write? If I check for their plagiarism, I will be famous. ! Who gives them such courage? If you twist the memorial, the water will fill up the Miao River! Their dad, next time they do this, they will be brought over one by one and scolded!"
Gu Chi breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Shen Tang's long string of verbal output. This meant that the Lord was also anxious inside and was far from being as calm as he appeared. Otherwise, no matter how irritating the memorial was, she would be able to read it with patience, and then read the memorial. Scolding inside.
Gu Chi was worried that he would be in trouble if he continued to stay, so he was trying to find a reason to slip away. Unfortunately, another pile of memorials was brought in. Shen Tang casually took the top one and took a second look at it. His face turned cold and murderous intent surged in his eyes.
As soon as he saw this posture, Gu Chi knew that he couldn't leave.
As expected, Shen Tang threw the memorial to him.
"Look at the tide, take a look."
Gu Chi opened it and took a nervous look, fearing that the content of the memorial might have something to do with him or the Yushitai - His Majesty was so angry that he had not bear the brunt of being fixed by her? After reading it carefully, his heart gradually dropped back to his stomach, and then There was a surge of gloating. He lowered the corners of his lips and sent the memorial back to Shen Tang: "My lord, this is a good thing!"
A good thing indeed!
All the big families in the Kingdom of Gao were taken away by Mi Kui and her son. The remaining three or two kittens were insignificant. It would not be difficult for the royal court to take away their land. If they dare not cooperate, they can only be released. It's a bit surprising. In addition, there are still large-scale wealthy gentry in the area. These people are also among the largest landowners in the area, and the amount of land they own is staggering.
They did not allow the royal court to measure and inventory the land.
Even the census was obstructed.
Some of them made small moves behind the scenes and even spread rumors that were unfavorable to Shen Tang among the tenant farmers. The other group acted smarter. They did not openly oppose Shen Tang, but actively cooperated with the government, but in private they did some illegal things. , including but not limited to spreading radical rumors, violent actions when measuring land, and transferring land that belongs to others to the name of the "Royal Court". The common people who suffered a loss naturally refused, and in anger they clashed with the subordinate officials. Beaten to death by people brought by subordinate officials...
Some people also beat subordinate officials to death.
All in all, there is a lot of public opposition.
Shen Tang wanted to sneer when he saw the memorial.
She was actually given a taste of the disgusting methods used by the Qi Guo family to deal with Mei Jinghe and others. Do you really think she was made of mud and would not get angry? Or are they confident that their methods are secretive and they will not be caught? Shen Tang asked Guo Chi: "How?"
Gu Chi raised his hand and made a gesture of wiping his neck.
In this case, the method of killing the chicken to scare the monkey is very suitable.
Shen Tang closed his eyes and thought for a while.
He raised his hand and made a downward movement: "Don't kill me yet."
Naturally, Shen Tang didn't suddenly become kind and want to accumulate negative virtue.
She added: "Let's inform Wu Zhaode about this in advance and say hello. It turns out that all the aristocratic families in Gao Kingdom were connived by him. Before we take action, we have to give them one last chance. If their old owners can't persuade them, move……"
Then, these people deserve to die.
Remember to keep your eyes wide open and avoid her when you are reincarnated in your next life.
Wu Xian, who suffered a disaster from heaven: "..."
He has been immersed in the grief of losing Mi Kui for a while. He just wants to be alone and calm down without anyone disturbing him. He was also confused when he saw this memorial. When he opened it and read it, he almost jumped up on the spot. He didn't know that Shen Tang He has been in a bad mood recently, but he knows that Shen kills people as quickly as he chops vegetables: "Are these people crazy? Is this trick useful against Shen Youli?"
Wu Xian looked at the last annotation of the memorial.
The corner of his mouth twitched: "...it is indeed useful."
Let Shen Tang kill a few people instead of hundreds or thousands of people.
Wu Xian had recently closed the door to thank guests, and there was no one around to consult with him. He was quite worried when he saw this memorial - he was no longer the leader of the Gao Kingdom, but just an ordinary middle-aged man who was drowning in the pain of losing his wife. How could he still do it? Are you in trouble to find him?
After staring at it for a long time, Wu Xian wrote many letters.
Regardless of whether he could be persuaded or not, his words were taken to him anyway.
If a person is still dead, it can be considered that his benevolence has been exhausted.
The letter was written and sent.
Within two days, the first reply letter was delivered to Wu Xian.
He didn't even look at it himself. He straightened his beard, which had not been shaved for ten and a half months, and then went to see Shen Tang. It was unfortunate that he came because Xun Hanzhang, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was discussing in the tent.
??????55.??????
Wu Xian wondered whether he should come back another day.
Shen Tang said: "You wait first."
Wu Xian: "..."
Isn’t there any need to avoid suspicion?
Wu Xian just listened to it for a while and felt dizzy.
During the years when I was the head of the country, it didn't seem so complicated. On second thought, it was normal. At that time, part of the rich land in Gao Kingdom was in the hands of aristocratic families, part of it was in the hands of the Gao royal family, and the rest was in the hands of the common people. The amount of grain harvested every year is pretty much the same, and the accounts are clear and clear.
There is no need to spend money like Shen Tang.
Wu Xian was sitting in the corner, distracted, while Xun Zhen was worried.
The memorial that made Shen Tang furious was submitted by the Ministry of Revenue. The fields could not be cleared within the year, so they were all handed over to Qin Li of the Taishi Bureau. He didn't dare to think about what would happen next spring. The Taishi Bureau was the most important department in Kang State. , none of them!
Qin Li relied on the power of scribes and the national seal to supervise all cultivated land in the country, and used the post to issue unified instructions for spring plowing in each region every year to ensure that the growth progress of crops was roughly uniform. As for him, precipitation was needed when water was needed, but not when it was needed. When - for example, when crops in various regions are mature and need to be harvested, ensure that there is sufficient sunlight during the harvest period and that the crops will not become moldy and reduce yields.
In addition, droughts and floods can also be prevented.
Even in disasters such as earth dragon turning over, rescuers can be dispatched in time.
The main premise of all this is that the amount, location and quality of cultivated land in the territory must be delivered to the Taishi Bureau, otherwise the Taishi Bureau will not be able to operate normally. The Taishi Bureau urges the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Households urges the various prefectures, counties and government offices. The yamen are making small moves.
Xun Zhen wanted to greet the eighteen generations of their ancestors.
Qi Shan, Chu Yao and Gu Chi are not afraid of him. If they offend, they will be offended. How can he be afraid of them? But Qin Li is different. It is not that Qin Li is difficult to deal with, but that his attributes are too scarce. , His Majesty’s trust in Qin Li is no less than that of Chu Yao and several elders. When necessary, Qi Yuanliang will give in to Qin Li.
The long and boring discussion finally ended.
When Xun Zhen left with a sullen expression, Wu Xian was still in a daze.
"Brother Zhaode, you have come to your senses."
Wu Xian was startled and suddenly came to his senses.
The look in his eyes at Shen Tang was endlessly complicated.
He had just heard that Qin Li, as the Minister of Rites, had gone to work part-time in the Taishi Bureau. At first, he thought that Qin Li was not favored because the Ministry of Rites and the Taishi Bureau were relatively quiet yamen compared to other departments. Wu Xian still felt a little emotional in his heart. But who knows, the more I hear about it, the more something is wrong. What about spring plowing? What about annual precipitation estimates? Why do we need to calculate the discharge of various rivers in the original plateau country?
Taishi Bureau...
Isn't it Si Tianjian?
When can I give advice to the Ministry of Household Affairs?
Xun Hanzhang's words, both inside and outside, were greatly undermined by Qin Li.
Wu Xian suspected that the Qin Li he knew and the Qin Li he just heard were two different people, with the same name and surname, and nothing else matched them!
To be continued...
