The Tyrant’s Beloved Empress

After the three princes' Zhezi was sent back to Yejing, another wave of quarrel broke out above the court over how to arrange the Bai Ding army's troubled people. +++Mobile reading visit m.wuxiaspot.com

Most courtiers felt that rebellion was a serious crime, and they must not be lifted up high and put down gently, otherwise others would follow suit in the future and wouldn't they be messed up?

Emperor Anqing also agreed. But how to deal with this is another question. Today, the Bai Ding army without the leader is willing to surrender, but they will not easily lay down their weapons when they have not received the promise from the court. With so many people, it is impossible to kill sha all. If you want to lock it up, the prison can't hold it.

A group of courtiers offered their plans one after another, and their faces blushed.

When the Emperor Anqing was really impatient, the doctor of historians Ji Anmin stepped forward and said his thoughts.

First, the leader of the Bai Ding army cannot let go. Although the two have already escaped, the arrest warrant is required to arrest the two; second, most of the people who join the Bai Ding army are inspired by (rape) people. As the saying goes, Dao law does not blame the public. Even if it is to reassure the people, it cannot be punished too much.

Emperor An Qing had a headache: "Then Aiqing said how to punish?"

"It's better to distribute these Bai Ding troops to the border guards."

Master Ji made a sound and well-founded statement: "Suzhou is the closest to Yanzhou, and Yanzhou has a vast area and is heavily guarded by soldiers. These troubled people dare not want to come back. In this way, you can (slay) the chickens and the monkeys. To achieve the purpose of punishment, it is a good thing to ask these disorderly people to go to the border and reclaim wasteland."

The penalties of exile have been penalized in all dynasties. Such a major crime of rebellion is just exile, and the punishment is considered light. But this also happened to achieve the goal of (killing sha), not to chill the hearts of the people in other places, and to demonstrate your majesty's benevolence.

Emperor Anqing thought about it and felt that this method was very good, so he drafted the imperial decree and sent it to Suzhou and Yanzhou respectively.

After the three princes in Suzhou received the imperial decree, their faces were all black. Asking Daochang Liao to cooperate with him in singing such a play to come to Suzhou, just to come to Suzhou to earn a lot of merit for himself. But now that he is talented, the troubled people have taken the initiative to submit to Shentu Xu, even if Emperor Anqing prefers, this feat will not fall on him.

A cold glance at Shentuxu, the third prince flicked his sleeves: "This is the case. General Lao Shentu will send troops to **** the troubled people, and the main hall will return to Yejing first."

Shen Tuxu was a little shocked now, seeing that he was about to leave, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and respectfully watched him leave.

...

Several families were happy and worried. Yanzhou received the imperial decree only when the three princes returned to Beijing. When they heard that nearly Wanbai Dingjun and the rest of the party were assigned to Yanzhou, several generals were overwhelmed with joy.

——Ye Jing actually gave it away.

Yanzhou has a vast land. In the early years, the city was often broken by Beidi, causing numerous deaths and injuries, leaving many uninhabited houses. Nowadays, I am not afraid that there is no place to house these people. Everyone is gearing up, just waiting for the arrival of these people.

An Changqing was also busy.

These days, Xiao Zhige has been thinking about expanding Yanzhou City. Since he took over Yanzhou, Yanzhou has been getting better and better, but the population is not abundant, and many places have nowhere to do it. Now that there are people, many things can be put on the agenda.

In addition to building the outer city wall, a wasteland is planned in the city, which can be reclaimed in the future, which can be used to grow crops. It's just that how the wasteland is reclaimed, how to distribute it after reclaiming, how to irrigate the canal, how much taxation you want... all have to discuss in detail a charter.

The officials at the bottom wrote the regulations according to the old rules of other states and counties, but Xiao Zhige was not satisfied. On the contrary, the words An Changqing chatted with him in the mansion appealed to him.

An Changqing said at the time: “Instead of issuing a document to order the people to reclaim wasteland, let them take the initiative to do it. When these people arrive in Yanzhou, they always find ways to support their families. But they don’t have any land. Yanzhou has no land. The land is not enough for so many people to rent. It is better to encourage them to recognize the land and open up wasteland by themselves. Register by household, how many wasteland claimed by one household, must be cultivated before October. The cultivated land belongs to the people themselves, and another two years are exempted. tax."

In this way, these people are reclaiming for themselves, and they are definitely more active than ordering reclaiming.

Xiao Zhige felt that this matter was very promising, and there was no suitable person under his hand to do it, so he (gan) gave him the matter of drafting the regulations. An Changqing was a little panicked at first. After all, he hasn't had any major events in his two lifetimes. Although he has read a lot of books, he is still talking on paper.

Now he really wants to grind the donkey. While he is afraid that he can't handle it, he is a little bit enthusiastic.

After all, which man doesn't want to (gan) a big business? Before getting married with Xiao Zhige, he also thought about taking a fame and becoming a local official, not to mention the fame of history, at least he is not ashamed of his conscientious work.

Xiao Zhige was not as worried as he did, and only told him to try first and draw up the regulations first. At that time, the statutes will have to be reviewed by the responsible officials. After several discussions and revisions, an official document will be issued to inform the people.

An Changqing was relieved and called up the local chronicles, household register and field atlases of Yanzhou a few years ago. Combining his own ideas, he carefully drafted the articles of association, but for a while, he was even better than Xiao Zhige. Be busy.

The study in the General's Mansion is often occupied by An Changqing, from the beginning of the sun to the dusk (color).

Originally, Xiao Zhige thought he was not very good in spirit these days, and wanted to find something for him (gan gan), but seeing An Changqing getting more and more decent, he has read some of the draft rules, and many thoughts are the same. It has never been mentioned before, but it is really good for people's livelihood. Instead, he felt surprised and proud.

After giving food and grass and defending the city, he had long understood that An Changqing was not as fragile as he thought and needed protection. He looks precious and fragile, but under his beautiful skin is a hard bone. It's just that the skin is too beautiful, and he is used to being silent, so that people have not noticed the treasure hidden under the skin.

Xiao Zhige was the first to notice.

He privately wanted to hide people and let anyone know. But seeing him looking for books with great interest, I want everyone to know how good he is.

***

It took An Changqing half a month to draw up the articles of association. It was now June, and he had been busy all morning. After copying the detailed rules in small letters, he went to find Xiao with a little nervousness. Stop Ge.

These days he often goes to the government office, and the guards of the government office already know him, and naturally let him pass after saluting.

Shentuxu was escorting nearly 10,000 "turbulent people" and was about to arrive in Yanzhou in the near future. Xiao Zhige is discussing the details of the settlement of these people with officials. Although a large number of people is a good thing, it is also prone to trouble. If you want to get through this running-in period, you have to make arrangements in advance.

When An Changqing passed by, Xiao Zhige was still discussing matters. He was planning to wait outside for a while, but was invited in directly.

At this time, the hall had just finished discussing the issue of the temporary resettlement of the people. Seeing An Changqing coming in, several civilian officials saluted and looked at Xiao Zhige, not knowing what he meant.

After all, civilian officials don't have to be close to Xiao Zhige, and their hearts will inevitably be twisted a little bit more.

Xiao Zhige seemed unaware, so he naturally waved An Changqing to sit next to him, and said to other people: "The land reclamation rules that I discussed with you a few days ago were drafted by the princess. Please pass it on first."

After speaking, look at An Changqing. An Changqing's original anxiety calmed down under his gaze.

After all, he is the princess of the Northern War, and Xiao Zhige as one, at this time, naturally can't (show) timidity to make people look down on, so he nodded slightly, and passed on the details that he had brought.

Looking at him, the officials felt that the princess was inexplicably similar to the Northern War King next to him.

In order to draw up this detailed rule, An Changqing consulted many literature and books, combined with the examples of the predecessors he had seen before, plus his own opinions, and wrote a full booklet. It not only includes land reclamation matters, but also planting, water diversion and irrigation after reclamation, etc., and he has extended the regulations to solve them, which is very detailed.

Officials who originally had some dissatisfaction and doubts about his involvement in this matter, after reading the detailed rules, all looked at each other and (showing) shame.

The constitution booklet was finally passed to Xiao Zhige. Xiao Zhige watched most of it piecemeal a few days ago. At this time, he confirmed that he still read it again carefully, and then he said in a deep voice: "This constitution, Do you have anything to add and perfect?"

The officials looked at each other. In the end, the most experienced official first expressed his views. When someone took the lead, everyone enthusiastically added to the statutes, or questioned the incomprehensibility.

Only this time, everyone respected and admired An Changqing in their expressions and words.

An Changqing was secretly happy when she heard it, but she didn't show it on her face. Seriously answered everyone's questions, and worked with everyone to supplement the deficiencies. After such a discussion, the distance has narrowed a lot. Compared with the Northern War King, who was always dark and talkative, the civilian officials were obviously closer to the good-tempered princess.

When everyone had discussed it, and when the final version of the articles of association was finalized, it was already dark.

An old man was very interested, and when he left, he pulled An Changqing and refused to let go. He eagerly said, "When will the princess come back next time? We still have a lot of places where we don’t know how to start. There are many new ideas."

Just as An Changqing didn’t know how to answer, Xiao Zhige freed An Changqing’s sleeves from the old man’s hands. He insisted: "My old man, go back and rest first. There will be more opportunities in the future. Don’t rush this time and a half. In a moment."

The old man happily bowed his hands at the two before leaving.

Without outsiders, An Changqing's straight back slackened, with joy hidden in his eyes and asked Xiao Zhige in a low voice, "I didn't shame the prince just now?"

Xiao Zhige took his hand and said with a smile: "Thanks to the blessings of today, these elders will give me a good face (color)."

The civil servants are all hard bones, and Xiao Zhige is not a good-tempered master. When the two parties disagree, it is not unusual for them to quarrel. Of course, the end result is often Xiao Zhige's (strong qiang) situation (zhenzhen) repression, and these officials have to persuade them if they refuse to accept it.

Today, An Changqing came here, although there were also times when there were different opinions, but he had a good temper, and he was able to argue and analyze with good words. Even if he had different opinions, he could seek common ground while reserving differences. Therefore, the atmosphere in the chamber today is unprecedentedly harmonious.

"It's better to just deal with these officials for me in the future." Xiao Zhige shook his head and commented: "It is really exhausting and troublesome to deal with them."

Yanzhou officials have been eliminated, and there are no people with corpses. But Xiao Zhige is a military commander after all, and he is used to speaking with his fists. However, this group of civil officials can make 18 bends in a word, and each boast of being arrogant and not afraid of power. Sometimes Xiao Zhige is upset by being entangled, and he can't be rough with these civil officials, so he is really flustered.

If it were for Qi Wei to whisper and crook in front of him, he would have already kicked it over.

An Changqing laughed when she heard it: "How can you say it so difficult?"

Xiao Zhige nodded himself: "Then it's settled."

An Changqing couldn't laugh or cry, but he also understood that Xiao Zhige was looking for an excuse to ask him to participate in Yanzhou affairs, and he just didn't hate these things, so he was no longer embarrassed and agreed calmly.

Seeing his answer, Xiao Zhige stopped worrying about the matter, and instead cared about his body: "These days you are busy every day, and you sleep well at night. It's just that I looked thinner again. "

An Changqing had a small face and a pointed chin. After losing weight, my face is not big enough to slap.

"Where did you lose weight?" An Changqing (touching Mo) (touching Mo) said on his own face: "I have a good appetite these days, I thought I was going to be fatter."

Xiao Zhige was quite sure: "I just lost weight. I will use more for dinner today and ask the kitchen to stew a soup to make up for it."

An Changqing glanced at him, wondering who should drink soup to make up. But he didn't dare to say this, otherwise it was himself who suffered. So I just responded perfunctorily: "Okay, let's drink together."

The author has something to say: Qi Wei:? ? ? ? What did I do wrong again?

Counseling: I didn't do anything wrong, I just wanted to kick you.

Qi Wei:...... (Don't dare to speak
