Daqin: The golden list came to the world, Zulong begged me to supervise the country

"People?" The officials were puzzled.

Aren't these things all able to benefit the people?

Guiguzi nodded: "If the common people know, how can they question the actions of His Highness the Crown Prince? If the common people know, how can they listen to other people's instigation and set off a wave among the people?"

Hearing Guiguzi's words, the officials suddenly realized.

"His Royal Highness killed Zhao Gao to eliminate the Zhao party. For ordinary people, they don't understand it at all, and they have no way to understand the reason. They only know that this is an ordinary court strife."

"The establishment of the Great Qin Imperial Examination and the Great Qin Academy, which replaced the previous recommendation system and schools, indeed selected a lot of talents for the empire, but the ordinary people couldn't feel any changes."

"As for selling salt, this is indeed a place where people can be grateful."

"To sum up, all the political achievements of His Royal Highness are not enough to compile such a grand ceremony."

Guiguzi said meaningfully.

Hearing this, all the officials understood what Guiguzi meant, that is, it was time for the crown prince to accumulate popularity for himself!

Since he is the Emperor of Qin, he can only be justified if he ascends the throne with the support of the people and obtains the authority of the empire.

To put it simply, it is to let the common people recognize Ying Changge's ability and personality.

Let the people in the world feel that if you win Changge, you will be a wise king and a responsible king in the future!
Only in that way can "The Code of Emperor Qin" be completely placed at the apex!

"Mr. taught, Changge will be remembered in my heart!"

"It's just that Changge doesn't know what to do. I don't know if sir can solve the problem?" Ying Changge got up and bowed.

Winning people's hearts is easy to say, but in fact, the difficulty is self-evident.

Not only need enough achievements, but also enough prestige.

"It's very simple, just get rid of internal and external troubles." Guiguzi said.

"The Xiongnu invaded, retreated, whipped the vast sea!"

"Domestic disasters, relief, hope for the people!"

When Ying Changge heard the words, his eyes froze slightly.

"Changge understands, Mr. Xie explains!" Ying Changge bowed deeply to Guiguzi.

Guiguzi smiled and nodded: "If His Royal Highness can do it, this book can be done!"

"There is another thing. The old man watches the stars at night. In recent days, the land of Jingchu has suffered from disasters. According to the old man's speculation, the land of Jingchu is approaching drought."

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

……

late at night.

A man in red knocked on the door of Shihuang's bedroom.

"Report to Your Majesty, Tai Shi ordered Xun Cang to see you!"

"Xuan." Shi Huang narrowed his eyes slightly, put on his clothes and came to the desk dealing with political affairs.

If it was someone else, whether Shi Huang saw it or not would be a matter of opinion.

But Taishi Ling is different.

Nowadays, Taishiling is a subordinate of Jiuqing, in charge of the time and ephemeris, and his usual work is to observe the celestial phenomena and divination of good and bad luck.

Regarding the metaphysics of astrology, Daqin has already reached a peak position.

Not long after, Xun Cang walked into the palace slowly, wearing Taishi Ling Xun Cang, who was dressed completely differently from ordinary courtiers.

"Xun Cang, greeting Your Majesty!"

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After saluting respectfully, Xun Cang stepped forward and handed over a brochure.

When Shi Huang opened it, his expression was slightly heavy.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the stars are shining brightly, and the white tiger star is slightly shifted. This is a sign of disaster in the south!"

"Weichen checked the county annals of Jingchu and found that there will be drought in Pengju County every 20 years or so. The astrology indicates that it is very likely that Pengju County is about to suffer a disaster!" Xun Cang said.

Hearing Xun Cang's words, Shi Huang thought for a while.

Then I read the memorials that Pengju County sent up in recent days one by one.

After all, now, nearly 12 years have passed since the severe drought in the Qin Dynasty in the 20th year of Emperor Qinhuang. If this time is followed, such a situation will almost occur.

Shi Huang's face was slightly gloomy, and when he finished reading the memorials, he found that there were indeed some references to the fact that there had been no rain for many days.

It seems that most likely a drought is really going to happen.

The First Emperor let out a breath, then waved his hands: "Back off, the widow knows."

"promise!"

Looking at the slowly closing door, Shihuang's eyes also showed a bit of solemnity.

Drought, for the people of a place, is tantamount to the end of the world.

Nowadays, the transportation is not developed enough, even if there are relief measures from the imperial court, it is difficult to deliver them to the people in time.

And now that the Huns are aggressively invading, the military food is still in short supply. After the drought, there must be an extremely severe famine, and the court does not have enough food.

Thinking of this, Shi Huang couldn't help but rubbed his eyebrows.

……

On the second day, Shihuang ordered Ying Changge to come over.

"I will see my father." Ying Changge bowed.

Shihuang nodded, and handed the folder in his hand to Ying Changge.

One of them was exactly what Xun Cang reported last night, and there were a few more about the lack of rainfall during this period of time.

Ying Changge looked at the slightly tired Shihuang, and he already guessed that Shihuang must have also been aware of the impending drought.

"Changge, I ask you, how are your potatoes growing now, and what is the expected harvest?" Shihuang asked with a frown.

"Father, the potatoes are growing well now, and according to the forecast of the officials of Sinong Temple, each mu of land can produce at least 2000 catties of grain. According to our current planting quantity, the harvest can reach about [-] million stones!" Ying Changge said truthfully.

Yesterday, after Guiguzi told him about this matter, Ying Changge immediately went to investigate. It just so happened that today Shihuang Yewen came.

Hearing Ying Changge's words, Shihuang also breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Shihuang was a little surprised, because he didn't expect that it would be this answer.

Ordinary disaster relief requires tens of millions of shi of food, but Pengju County is a large county with a large population, so I am afraid that it will be necessary to prepare about 500 million shi for it to be used.

"How long will it take to harvest?" Shihuang asked again.

"Well, according to my calculations, it should be less than a month." Ying Changge said.

The First Emperor nodded and said: "I think you have also seen that there will be a drought in the land of Jingchu. If we cannot deliver the food in time, I am afraid there will be a severe famine."

"This matter, do you think you have the ability to manage it?"

Shi Huang looked solemn.

This matter is not a trivial matter. If Ying Changge can't do well, the people all over the world will be full of resentment. I'm afraid there will be many different voices when he inherits the great rule in the future.

"Father, son, you have this ability!" Ying Changge said solemnly.

Shihuang nodded: "I will help you with this matter. If you have anything you don't understand, or if you have nothing to do, you can come to Father Huang. If this matter can be resolved perfectly, I think, for you, I will help you." Our Daqin is an excellent opportunity!"

"My child, remember!" Ying Changge also nodded seriously.

For the current situation, Ying Changge also understands.

But for this drought, there is a better solution in Ying Changge's mind.

It was one of the many tricks that Yuanshi Tianzun gave him before.
