Chapter 440

In Wang Yun's mansion, Diao Chan locked herself in the room alone.

Butler Liu Quan knocked on the door and came in, "Miss, it's been five days since my lord's rice has not been eaten, please persuade my lord."

Seeing Diao Chan's refusal, Liu Quan reluctantly left the room.

Diaochan was upset, so she changed into men's clothes and quietly left Situ's mansion.She decided to go to Fang Wen's residence and ask Cai Yan's opinion.

It's just that when Diao Chan came all the way to Fangfu, Fangfu was already empty.

Diao Chan panicked now, and asked the beggars on the street who were waiting for the porridge, "My fellow, do you know where all the people in the Fang Mansion have gone?"

"Who are you, Prime Minister Fang? He has already moved to the prime minister's mansion." The fellow said happily, "Dong Zhuo used to be the prime minister, and he didn't treat us people as human beings at all. Now it's all right, Mr. Fang has become the prime minister, our good friend The day is coming."

The fact that Fang Wen became the prime minister has been announced to the world, so they naturally know about it.

The other people who were waiting for the porridge also responded one by one, "Yes, yes, Fang Cheng is a thousand times stronger than Dong Zhuo. His prime minister must be the best prime minister in the history of the Han Dynasty."

Listening to these beggars' comments, Diao Chan suddenly felt that her choice of rejecting Wang Yun and refusing to instigate Lu Jia to kill Fang Wen was correct.

Although those princes and ministers didn't want to see the prime minister Fang Wen, the common people recognized the prime minister Fang Wen very much.After all, there are still many common people in this world, and the king is the one who can gain the approval of the common people.

Afterwards, Diao Chan headed towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.She still had to ask Cai Yan how to deal with Wang Yun's matter.

Soon, Diao Chan came to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Sister Diaochan, long time no see." Cai Yan greeted Diaochan with a smile.

"Sister Cai, where's Brother Wen?" Diao Chan's first thing was to ask Fang Wen.

"Chang Chao is gone." Cai Yan said, "Sister Diaochan, what's the matter?"

"Sister Cai, I have something to ask you." Diao Chan said.

"Okay, you ask."

Afterwards, Diao Chan told Cai Yan everything, "Sister Cai, what do you think I should do?"

"Of course I promised your adoptive father." Cai Yan said.

"Ah?" Diao Chan exclaimed, "Sister Cai, you..."

"Where are you thinking, how could I harm my husband?" Cai Yan said, "Don't you want to marry your husband? Then why don't you follow the plan and let Wang Yun find a way to marry you to your husband. After you pass the door, you As long as you follow your husband wholeheartedly, and don't instigate Lu Jia to kill your husband."

"However, General Lu Jia is so powerful that he will hurt Brother Wen." Diao Chan wondered.

"Don't worry, Lu Jia can't hurt your husband. Could I put your husband in danger?" Cai Yan said with a smile.

Lu Jia is Fang Wen, how could Fang Wen harm himself?As for Wan Sheng, even if I lend him ten guts, I wouldn't dare!

Although Diao Chan was puzzled, why Cai Yan was so swearing.But she still believed in Cai Yan.After all, this may be the only way for her to marry Fang Wen.

"Thank you, Sister Cai, for your advice. Diao Chan will leave now." Diao Chan left the prime minister's mansion as she spoke.

Cai Yan was a little funny looking at Diao Chan who was in such a hurry.

After a while, Fang Wen came back and asked, "Why are you so happy?"

"Of course it's a happy event." Cai Yan said.

"Oh? What happy event?" Fang Wen asked curiously.

"I won't tell you." Cai Yan played charades.

Fang Wen shook his head and didn't ask any more questions.

"How's Chaoshang doing today?" Cai Yan asked while helping Fang Wen remove the crown.

Fang Wen hated this tiara the most, it was too uncomfortable to wear.He usually prefers not to wear anything at all.If Cai Yan hadn't said that it would be rude not to wear the crown, Fang Wen would not have wanted to wear it.

"I ordered all the land to be taken back today. It will be time for spring plowing in another month, but the people don't have a single inch of land in their hands. I plan to take all the land back to the state, and then hand it over to the land by lease. Ordinary people plant. Prohibit land trading! In this way, the land in the hands of ordinary people will not be robbed by others, and they will not go hungry."

Cai Yan frowned and said, "My husband's doing this is really good for the people, but won't those local tyrants and evil gentry resist? They still have those ministers. Will they be dissatisfied and cause turmoil?"

Fang Wen smiled and said, "Don't worry, they may be dissatisfied, but they never dare to cause turmoil. This world relies on the army and strength to speak. They have no strength, so they can only be obedient."

Cai Yan said again, "But if my husband does this, he will offend the nobles in the world, and the children of those aristocratic families will not come to join him. If things go on like this, it will be bad for my husband!"

"Yan'er is far-sighted." Fang Wen nodded and said, "But my husband doesn't need the approval of those self-righteous family children. There is a contract, and we want him to be obedient. Do they dare to be disobedient?"

Cai Yan was stunned, and then asked again, "Yes, why didn't my husband make blood contracts with all the ministers in the court? Wouldn't it be easier?"

"I have my own plan." Fang Wen said with a smile.

The reason why Fang Wen didn't make blood contracts with those ministers was because of Liu Xie's clothes belt edict.If all the ministers have taken refuge in Fang Wen, then Liu Xie has no support in the court, how dare he write the clothes and belts?

Even if Fang Wen made the blood contract of those ministers, and let those ministers pretend to be against him, it would definitely not work.

Liu Xie is not stupid, although he can lie to him for a while, but after a long time he will be able to see who is loyal to him and who is acting.

Therefore, Fang Wen can only let those ministers and ministers be free, and suppress them from time to time.

Fang Wen didn't say anything, and Cai Yan didn't ask too much, but said, "Although my husband has solved the land problem, most of the people in Luoyang City are homeless. Even if the land is allocated to them, they will not be able to cultivate it."

Fang Wen nodded after listening, "What suggestion does Yan'er have?"

Cai Yan thought for a while and said, "There are too many people in Luoyang City. I think it's better to stop giving porridge, distribute rice to these people, and divert these people to other cities."

Fang Wen nodded and said with a smile, "Yan'er is really thoughtful, and I think so too."

In fact, the main reason why Fang Wen only served porridge but not rice before was that most of the people who came to eat porridge were homeless, and even if they were given rice, they couldn’t cook it.

At that time, Fang Wen was unable to help these homeless people solve their housing problems, so he had to give them porridge first to solve their problem of food.

Now under Fang Wen's rule, there are three big cities, Luoyang, Chang'an, and Chenliu, and there are many small cities, surrounded by countless fertile fields.

Fang Wen can completely transfer these people to live in other places one by one.Give them rice and land.In this way their lives are guaranteed.

"Thank you, husband, for your compliment." Cai Yan smiled triumphantly.
