Are you stupid?

In his previous life, Mu Huaiyuan was able to be an extremely personable official, and his skills would never be worse than those of a few mountain village folks with their eyes above their heads.

After a few words in the meeting, he could feel the thoughts of the county magistrate, county magistrate and other local clan representatives who yearned for the prosperity of the capital, but also desperately wanted face, and didn't want others to see clearly.

When getting along with people, you are not afraid that the other party has eccentricities, but only worry that the other party has no desires or desires.The mentality of the local clan made Mu Huaiyuan very relaxed, and he immediately found a way to get along with the local officials.

When the county lieutenant said something serious, Mu Huaiyuan led the topic to the daily necessities of life in Beijing, and he must pick up the description of the most luxurious life of the upper class to deepen the county lieutenant's erroneous impression.

When the county captain Ren was sent away, he was completely fooled by Mu Huaiyuan, completely believing that the extravagance in the capital was at its peak, and a meal would cost tens of thousands of dollars.

After sending the man away, the attendant couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty is advocating simplicity, why does your lord tell them nonsense that the extravagance is getting stronger?"

Mu Huaiyuan cleaned up the debris that was casually thrown in the teapot, and only got himself a cup of boiling spring water. Run Run said with a dry throat, "We've traveled all the way, what do you think of Shu?"

"Green mountains and green waters, it's a good place." Although the attendant didn't understand the meaning of Mu Huaiyuan's question, he still answered his question honestly.

"Yes, ordinary villages always have to plow the fields. The people wear rags, the trousers are rolled up high, their faces, hands and feet are covered with mud, and their hair is frizzy. They look no different from beggars, and even rural fields It's full of feces." Mu Huaiyuan looked at Shi Shi, "Is that so?"

The attendant nodded suddenly, "Yes, yes, sir, that's how it is. Even the people near the capital, as long as they go to the ground, they look extremely miserable. It's completely different from the people in Shu who are dressed in bright clothes."

The smile on Mu Huaiyuan's face turned cold, "Because the people in Shu don't need to farm, they don't have to worry about their daily clothes being soiled by the soil mixed with fertilizer; it's also because the local people make a living selling silk, even if Shu brocades are sold in other places, but for the locals, silk fabrics are not something worth cherishing, and they can be worn casually.”

"Isn't it good for the common people to have enough food and clothing?"

"That's because despite the continuous disasters in various places over the years, the grain production of several grain-producing counties has not been greatly affected. Only the merchants can continuously send grain to Jiayu County King's fief - but here from this year It is no longer the fiefdom of the Jiayu County King."

Mu Huaiyuan tapped the boy on the head, "During the journey, you forgot all the grain prices I asked you to inquire about."

The attendant's servant was embarrassed, and he covered his head and dared not make a sound.

Mu Huaiyuan waved his hand, "Do you feel ashamed? Then remember this feeling of shame, go back and endorse it carefully, and don't forget it again. Bring back all the documents sent by the county magistrate, since they sent them to me , It’s not good to neglect their good intentions.”

The attendant's servant took a peek at Mu Huaiyuan's crown-like appearance, obediently led the other attendants there, and carried them back and forth several times before delivering all the account books and documents.

He sat under the table holding a book and read it carefully, and couldn't help asking, "Why did you teach me to read?"

Mu Huaiyuan admired the fake documents and account books like reading poetry, and said without raising his head, "The Mu family would rather let you sell yourself as a slave than send someone to me, why am I embarrassed to use you. Even if the Mu family came to the door one day, I would rather sell the eldest grandson to be a servant than to have a relationship with the powerful Princess Anping's mansion, and I would not be ashamed. I just don't know if you have parents and brothers, How will they view your experience of being a slave and a handmaid outside in the future?"

The boy looked at Mu Huaiyuan nervously with wide eyes, showing panic.

Mu Huaiyuan rubbed the boy's head a few times as if he was stroking a dog, and calmly ordered, "You need to be dedicated to reading, don't let me look down on the minds of the Mu family."

"You really know?!" The boy couldn't figure out where he was showing his feet.

In order to send him to Mu Huaiyuan's side, he was suppressed by the elders in his family and lived with an old servant for half a year.

Mu Huaiyuan raised his eyebrows, looked at the boy who refused to admit defeat, smiled nostalgicly and had a little imperceptible bitterness, "Because of his looks."

"I look like my mother, and I can't see the Mu family at all." The boy rolled his eyes nimbly, and leaned over and said, "Uncle, my nephew doesn't look like her, please tell me something about my nephew." Come on."

"It's not about looks, it's about whether they look good or not." Mu Huaiyuan lifted the boy's cheek and shook his head and sighed, "The former emperor had close relations with several outstanding officials, and when the new emperor ascended the throne, these people also Never received a cold reception. The new emperor has always been extremely indifferent to the matter of marriage. Even the concubine who gave birth to the eldest prince has never been rumored to be close to Jinshang. For this reason, many officials in the court secretly speculate that Jinshang also Very masculine."

Mu Huaiyuan couldn't help showing a mysterious smile as he spoke, which made the boy couldn't help asking, "Uncle, you are His Majesty's companion, does His Majesty like men or women?"

"Your Majesty is cold by nature, and doesn't like romantic matters." Mu Huaiyuan put away his smile, tapped the boy, and pricked his curiosity, "But everyone doesn't know, but he is still collecting young and lovely teenagers and children. When you grow up It looks like, if it really shows up in the tooth store, it should show up in the Nanfeng official instead of being sold to the princess mansion."

"...no other reason?"

"No."

"But this is just your inference, what a legitimate reason!" The young man objected.

Mu Huaiyuan said in a flat tone, "You have no talent." Let it go, no longer explain in depth.

After he evaluated his blood-related children almost arrogantly, he looked at the forged documents absent-mindedly.

He recalled in his mind the scene of seeing Shenlong when he first entered the court, and thought, people are really different, even if a child of blood appears beside him, he still prefers the same intelligence—no, intelligence alone is not enough, For example, the word "smart" is more suitable for "transparency" - the communication between people.The environment in which Shenlong came out when he was young was much different than that of Zuyu, Xi, Tuan, Team, Du, and Jia.Nephew is much more difficult, but he can handle everything properly, and he enjoys it without taking pains. Every major event can see through the interests and joints, but the children sent by the Mu family...

Heh, no wonder the Mu family is looking for him now, the most talented child of the new generation of the Mu family looks so stupid, isn't the Mu family going to turn around and rely on him?

Thinking of the days before his mother sent him away, Mu Huaiyuan always turned her back and cried silently, Mu Huaiyuan only felt that the blood in his heart was surging, and a burst of anger surged up.

When his mother was in distress, the Mu family never extended a helping hand to their mother and son. Now, seeing that he is backed by the Anping Grand Princess's mansion, and he was born with Xinjun's companion. Just thinking of posting it to take advantage?

It doesn't look very good, but it's beautiful to think about.

Whether he can take the initiative to hold Mu Jialiwei is already a manifestation of broad-mindedness and outstanding character.

Mu Huaiyuan raised his eyes and found that the Mu family deliberately sent him a child from the first line to "slow down" the relationship, and couldn't help shaking his head in his heart.He said that this child is "not talented" not to belittle him deliberately to vent his personal grievances, but to think that this child has no big picture.If you want to stand in the court, you must have the skill to know the small things, otherwise, even if you get an official position with excellent reading skills, you will not be able to enter the central government, and the power will be poured into the government and the public.

The price of young slaves sold by Jingzhong dental shop has been rising since the first emperor was alive, and the price of handsome boys has been rising all the way. After the new dynasty, even when the house was not available during the filial piety period, it still did not decrease. It can be seen that male sex has become a common practice among the people.

All matters related to people's livelihood should be paid close attention to by the courtiers. Mu Huaiyuan mentioned his nephew on the road more than once, but the other party still had no response, even after he explained it himself, he could not understand it. Mu Huaiyuan thought that if For a person with no political sensitivity like the other party, if he can be a parent official in one place with peace of mind, no matter how high he is, it is not suitable, because the other party has no ability to feel danger at all. Once encountering foreign invasion, banditry, or frequent natural disasters, he may die It took hundreds of households for him to find out what was wrong.

However, the person has already come to him, Mu Huaiyuan will not deliberately teach the child to be a waste who does not even have the ability to take scientific examinations.

——If the Mu family dared to send someone over, they must have made double preparations.

I'm afraid even the Mu family didn't believe that Mu Huaiyuan, who was already eight years old at the time and had the title of child prodigy, would be so generous when he grew up.Therefore, in Mu Huaiyuan's view, if he has a gentle personality and takes care of the child as a nephew regardless of past suspicions, then when the child becomes an adult, the Mu family will take advantage of the opportunity to redeem the child's contract of prostitution, and use the child to justify Mu Huaiyuan took it back into the Mu family tree; but Mu Huaiyuan found that it is more likely to hold grudges against the Mu family.Even so, the Mu family will not panic, there is only one heir, the Mu family does not lack a descendant, but the existence of this child will become evidence that Mu Huaiyuan deliberately taught the descendants of the Mu family to be bad, and when the time comes, he will be used to threaten Mu Huaiyuan The same can be done.

If Mu Huaiyuan refuses to cooperate at that time, he will be killed and his reputation will be directly damaged. In this way, there will be no Mu Huaiyuan in the court who has a bad relationship with the Mu family, and the descendants of the Mu family will easily stand out, so there is no need to worry about being killed by Mu Huaiyuan. Yuan suppressed and couldn't get out.

Mu Huaiyuan shook his head, thinking that if it was an ordinary relationship between a monarch and his ministers, he might be worried about his image in the emperor's heart, but he was not troubled by this.

I'm afraid the Mu family doesn't know that clan power is what they hate the most in the world.

In the eyes of Shenlong, the existence of the clan is an existence that annihilates humanity and destroys the free will of others.Although Mu Huaiyuan has also seen clans that show pity for the poor and the weak and help to take care of the orphaned children, what Mu Huaiyuan has seen more is that the same clans oppress widows and orphans and specialize in shameless acts of exorcising their fortunes.

Shenlong and Mu Huaiyuan have always had similar views. They both think that clans exist for the purpose of harming people.

However, even if the clan nephew in front of him is really raised and abolished, Shenlong will take care of him. Mu Huaiyuan does not intend to drag an innocent child into the grievances between himself and the Mu clan. There is anger.

According to the child's ability, he will raise him to be an ordinary person in line with his own ability.

If you don't have the ability, don't enter the court. It will not only keep yourself safe, but also avoid implicating others.

Mu Huaiyuan looked at the fake documents at a glance, and couldn't help but be amazed by their perfunctory falsification - the data on the documents are all added or subtracted by ten from the previous year every year to deal with errands.

"Sure enough, I saw the face of Jiayu County King."

Mu Huaiyuan shook his head. If the imperial court didn't take into account that this place was originally Jiayu County King's face, he might not be able to bear such a perfunctory document, let alone give the previous county magistrate an excellent grade in the performance appraisal.

However, such content is not meaningless, even if the content is fake, it will not be too different from the local data. More importantly, this method of fraud must have been fixed since the Jiayu County King came here. Represents the various data of the Shu land more than 20 years ago - although the people in the Shu land would also raise some mulberry trees more than 20 years ago, they lived by farming. Mu Huaiyuan can estimate the grain output of the land more than 20 years ago , Now the mulberry tree is used for farming, how long and how much land the people need to afford their daily needs and pay food taxes.

"Is there silver in Curry?"

The first thing the accompanying soldiers came here was to seal the treasury and check the amount of money, food, and weapons in it. In order to maintain his personality as "the chief dandy in Beijing", Mu Huaiyuan did not participate in these things. But the person who went to investigate was a soldier arranged by Xinjun, who was very reliable. Mu Huaiyuan directly asked the other party about the results of the investigation.

The leader of the soldiers stepped forward, bowed his hands and saluted, completely treating Mu Huaiyuan as the real Shangfeng, "The treasury is full of silver, but the weapons are outdated, and the grain depot is empty. The people who guard the grain depot It is said that the amount of grain transported to Beijing is always inconsistent, and the king of Jiayu County simply exchanged the grain tax for money according to the market price, and is sending money to Beijing. This has been done all these years."

Mu Huaiyuan nodded, indicating that he understood, and couldn't help but think in his heart that the king of Jiayu's fight was really an idea to make Shu land without food.

For the common people, filling their stomachs is always a big deal.There is no food in the land of Shu, so the person who has the food is the master of the people of the whole land, even if it is just for a bite of food, when the Jiayu County King wants the people to go east, they will not go west.Whether the people live or die is a matter of one thought.

——The false content specially set up for Lin Jianxi may turn into reality at any time.

And if the people really followed the Jiayu County King and became rebels for food for their lives, they would never turn back and could only follow the Jiayu County King all the way to the dark.

This plan is so sinister and vicious, I don't know who came up with it for Jiayu County King.

However, fortunately, it is not too late to know everything, as long as a batch of grain is mobilized in time from the land of Sichuan and stored in the grain depot for emergencies, the plot of Jiayu County King can be broken.

"Since His Majesty asked you to follow me to the post, you must have a way to contact His Majesty, right? This matter is extremely urgent and must not be delayed. I will write a letter, and I will trouble you to deliver the letter to Your Majesty as soon as possible."

The leader of the army showed joy, and immediately got rid of the wooden figure before, and leaned forward excitedly and said, "Magistrate Mu, you are finally going to write a letter to Your Majesty. Your Majesty has ordered our brothers this morning, Magistrate Mu If you want to write a letter, you can take it as the most urgent matter at any time and rush to Beijing at [-] miles; once you have business, you can take your majesty's token to change horses without changing people, and you can gallop to Beijing for three to five days. I can send the message back."

Mu Huaiyuan: "..."

In fact, it's not that urgent, but Shenlong prepared early in the morning to hear it now, which really makes my heart sweet.

Sure enough, he is a little villain who can act like a baby.

The author has something to say:

Make up a thousand!

I feel extremely thick and long!

Throw it to 1.8 meters!

Good night babies=3=Jiu Mi
