dream red mansion

After returning from Jia's mansion, Lin Youyu officially started his "work" life.

The cabinet is responsible for drafting the handling opinions, and then the opinions are submitted to the emperor for approval by a special person, and finally the six subjects are proofread and issued.In modern times, Lin Youyu has some understanding of the cabinet, so he quickly adapted to the work of the cabinet.To put it bluntly, the cabinet is like the emperor's secretary.Lin Youyu was recommended by the King of Beijing and promoted by the emperor himself. Other officials in the cabinet took good care of Lin Youyu and dared not embarrass him because he was a newcomer.The emperor always summoned some senior officials in the cabinet to discuss matters. Speaking of which, Lin Youyu had not been formally summoned by the emperor since the last time he met the emperor.The emperor seemed to have forgotten about Lin Youyu, and the King of Beijing Jing seldom came to see Lin Youyu recently.

Lin Youyu is not in a hurry, and goes to get off work on time every day.When I have free time, I go to Jia's mansion to see Daiyu, and Lin Youyu and the people in Jia's mansion are also familiar with each other.Since Lin Youyu agreed to Shi Xiangyun, every time he found something new, he would occasionally bring her with him.Shi Xiangyun didn't know where Lin Youyu knew about these tricks, such as BBQ, fruit shaved ice, playing badminton... Whenever you ask him, he laughs at his ignorance!On this day, I saw a lot of refugees on the way back from outside the city, and there were also a lot of beggars on the usually bustling streets.Shi Xiangyun felt strange and asked: "Why are there so many beggars near the capital recently?" Lin Youyu glanced outside lightly, and said: "The Yellow River overflowed, and the inland river overflowed, flooding many villages and fields. Suddenly, there are so many beggars. There are homeless refugees. If they want to survive, they can only go to prosperous places to beg."

Shi Xiangyun put down the curtain and stopped looking outside, and asked again: "Does the court not care?"

"I said Miss, do you also take care of court affairs?" Lin Youyu looked at Shi Xiangyun with interest.

Shi Xiangyun didn't quarrel with Lin Youyu like before, and said quietly: "They look really pitiful! They are naked and starving. Thinking about us again, it's really..." Shi Xiangyun didn't say any more.

Lin Youyu didn't expect Shi Xiangyun to say these words, and he valued her a little more in his heart.Suddenly remembered that Shi Xiangyun's parents died when she was young, and she was brought up by her uncle and aunt.Her life may not be as bright as it looks!Lin Youyu couldn't help feeling pity for her, and said, "Don't worry, everything will be fine. The court will not just sit idly by."

Lin Youyu was right. The number of refugees near the capital suddenly increased, and relevant officials had to report the situation to the imperial court.The emperor sent someone to investigate and found out that the disaster in the area along the river was very serious, and now he is calling the cabinet to discuss countermeasures.How to deal with this large number of refugees has become a big problem!

Lin Youyu was working as usual, when Eunuch Li suddenly came to tell Lin Youyu that the emperor had summoned him.Lin Youyu put down the affairs at hand and followed Li Gonggong to see the emperor.

"My lord, Lin Youyu kowtowed to the emperor, long live my emperor!"

"Exemption, flat life. Lin Youyu, do you know why I asked you to come here?"

Lin Youyu replied: "Back to the emperor, if I guessed correctly, the emperor asked me to come because of the disaster victims."

"Since you know all about it, I would like to hear your suggestions."

One of the benefits of being in the cabinet can be the first to have access to memorials, so Lin Youyu began to pay attention to this matter very early.I went to the outskirts of the city many times, not only for fun but also for investigation.As for the countermeasure, Lin Youyu also had an idea in mind, and replied: "Your Majesty, I have a good idea to get the best of both worlds. It can not only solve the problem of the victims, but also solve another problem that has been troubling the Emperor."

"Oh~ what's the problem?" The emperor became interested and motioned for him to continue.

Lin Youyu said: "Land annexation. Land annexation has always been a big problem for the imperial court. Although some measures have been taken to curb it, the effect is not good. Landlords, rich people, and officials and gentry hide their land and do not report it. As a result, the imperial court cannot calculate their real land. tax due."

"That's right, land annexation has always troubled me." The emperor nodded and asked, "How to solve these two problems at the same time?"

Lin Youyu replied: "Due to the sudden overflow of the Yellow River, the people along the river were displaced and fled to the capital. But in the long run, it will definitely have a certain impact on the security and management of the capital, so the court must resettle them as soon as possible. My minister suggested that the court can A simple shelter was built outside the city to accommodate the victims. Food was distributed every day.

"What you said is not different from the suggestions of the ministers in the early court. I don't want to hear the same words." The emperor's voice was a little displeased.

Lin Youyu smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, the next step is the key point. The above is just for the sake of urgency, and it will definitely not work for a long time. My minister boldly suggested that I send someone to thoroughly investigate the land of the rich and powerful in the capital, and detain the illegal circle. The forbidden land will be returned to the imperial court. The imperial court will distribute this part of the land to the disaster victims for cultivation. With the land, the people will naturally be self-sufficient. And when life is stable in the coming year, they will be able to pay taxes. What does the emperor think?"

"Well, not bad! Lin Youyu, you are really smart!" The emperor was very happy when the problem was solved.But after thinking about it, he felt that there were still some problems, and said: "There are so many victims, so what if the land that has been thoroughly investigated is not enough to distribute to them?"

"The emperor is wise!" Appropriate flattery is very important.Taking a sneak peek at the emperor, the emperor was really very useful.Lin Youyu replied: "We just take the capital city as an experimental point first. If this method is feasible, it can be implemented in various states and counties. At that time, the situation of insufficient land in the capital city can be solved by resettling the victims in different states and counties in batches. This way the land will be merged." The problem has also been solved.”

The emperor thought in his heart: "Lin Youyu's method is indeed feasible, but if it is really put into action...those dignitaries will not hand over the land easily. What if..."

The emperor was silent for a long time, Lin Youyu guessed what the emperor was worried about, and asked: "The emperor is worried that those powerful people will not let go easily?"

"Yes, I have just ascended the throne not long ago, and I don't want to start unnecessary struggles unless I have to. I use the various forces in the court to contain each other. Once they are entwined by external factors, the stability of the court will be broken! I don't want that !"

Lin Youyu replied: "Since I dared to offer this plan, I naturally thought of this aspect. Your Majesty, you can do this..."

"Good! Good! Good! Lin Youyu will be handled by you. If it is done well, I will definitely reward you!" The emperor was very happy.

After exiting the palace, Lin Youyu did not leave immediately but looked up at the sky.Finally, it's time to start...
