When you wake up, you are given marriage to your nemesis

After lunch, there were indeed conversations outside.

Qiao Wan opened the window a crack, and when she saw someone coming, she snapped her fingers at Luo Fengxin: "Look, I didn't lie to you this time."

"A blind cat ran into a dead mouse." Luo Fengxin scoffed.

"Luck is also a part of strength, not to mention that my luck is also based on reason." Qiao Wan closed the window and sat back at the table, picked up the cup again, turned it around with one finger, and waited for the other party to call the door.

A moment later, a clear male voice sounded outside the door.

"Bai Zhenqi, I heard in the hall yesterday that Her Highness the Princess has a wonderful way to govern the state, so I came here specially to ask for advice."

Qiao Wan smiled lightly and pushed Luo Fengxin, telling her: "Your Highness, open the door quickly."

Luo Fengxin gave Qiao Wan a blank look, and went to open the door.The person standing with folded hands under the steps outside the door was No.1 who sat under Zhong Xin's left hand in the conference hall that day.

"Mr. Bai, please." Luo Fengxin tilted his lower body slightly to make way, but Bai Zhenqi did not step forward.

"Bai came here alone. If he enters the princess's room again, he may cause gossip. Please come out and talk to your highness."

Qiao Wan poked her head out from behind Luo Fengxin, and said in surprise: "Yo, a pervert with an evil heart broke in last night, and today a pedantic scholar came in during the day, don't you know that you are not afraid of shadows?" Hey, if Mr. Bai has no evil thoughts in his heart, why should he be afraid of gossip?"

Bai Zhenqi didn't look sideways, and said calmly: "The princess's words are wrong. As the saying goes, 'a feather sinks a boat, a group of light breaks a shaft, everyone's mouth makes gold, and accumulation destroys bones'. If a minister acts only according to his own will Not being afraid of what people say will not only put oneself in danger, but also put the Lord in a dilemma, which is disloyal and unrighteous. Because of his righteousness, Bai can't do such unfaithful and unrighteous acts."

What Qiao Wan said just now was just a deliberate probing. There are many places where they need to employ people when they come to Minzhou. She is quite satisfied that this person can cast aside prejudices and ask for advice under the current situation. The previous request to avoid suspicion It's also what a gentleman did, and he reacted so quickly when he was confronted with difficulties and questioning, and his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, he was indeed a usable person.

She stood up, bowed to Bai Zhenqifu and said, "Just now, I was talking nonsense, please don't blame Mr. Bai."

With Qiao Wan's status as princess at this time, it is considered very respectful to salute a commoner, and she even admitted her mistake and apologized.Bai Zhenqi's complexion changed slightly, he took a step back, clasped his palms forward, and bowed deeply.

The three of them came to the stone table in the courtyard and sat down. Bai Zhenqi took the lead to ask Luo Fengxin, "I don't know what your highness will do to deal with the current situation in Minzhou?"

Luo Feng said in his heart: "Mr. Bai is probably well aware of the contradictions between the original people in Qianyang City and the victims from outside, and among the victims, so I will not say more. Now the people in the city are forced to stay behind closed doors. After the disaster victims entered the city, they no longer engage in production. Even if the imperial government sends another batch of grain, it can only be a temporary relief. Once the imperial court really decides to abandon Minzhou, let Minzhou fend for itself, and no longer send grain to Minzhou , then we can only sit and eat.”

Luo Fengxin has been pondering about the governance of Minzhou since he was entrusted with the title. Earlier today, Qiao Wan speculated that Bai Zhenqi would come to ask for advice, and discussed with her again. The two drew up a preliminary plan, and then she would answer Bai Zhenqi.

Bai Zhenqi heaved a long sigh after hearing these words: "It is precisely this reason, and I have been worrying about it all the time. I also heard a few words from Master Zhong today when you two talked with Master Zhong last night. Although some of us It’s useless, but as the young master said, many people’s natures are not bad, but it’s easy to go from frugal to extravagant, and it’s difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. Now that these people can get food without working, how can we persuade them to go back to farming ? If you push it too hard and you are afraid of angering everyone, you will be in a dilemma."

"So how to arrange these people should be considered before entering the city." Luo Fengxin shook his head and said, "Of course it's too late to say these things now, the most urgent thing is to get everything back on track, just coercion will definitely not work, and Huihao's strategy needs to be followed In combination, these victims should be resettled properly. After the flood, the houses and farmland in several villages around the disaster-stricken county have been washed away. The Palace plans to send people to renovate their residences first, so as to ensure that the victims will have houses to live in after they move back. One."

"Your Majesty granted Minzhou to the palace as a fief, and the palace has the right to handle the taxation and military affairs in the territory. Considering that the disasters in Minzhou have been frequent in recent years and the people have suffered greatly, the palace is willing to reduce the burden on the people and encourage Everyone reclaims wasteland, and any newly reclaimed land, as long as it is planted by the reclaimer, will be owned by the reclaimer, and can be credited for a period of time based on the number of acres reclaimed. The second is the second."

Bai Zhenqi stroked his beard, and said to Luo Fengxin: "Your Highness has considered the strategy before, but His Highness is not aware of it. Our Mindi has many mountains and little flat land, the soil is not fertile, and the cultivated land is limited. Of course, we can reclaim the land on the mountain. Wasteland, but many mountains lack irrigation water, and it is difficult to grow crops. Moreover, there are many bandits in the mountains, and the fields and houses are close to the mountains. Most of the hard-earned food will be robbed by bandits in the end. How can you make everyone feel at ease? labor?"

Luo Fengxin said leisurely: "Therefore, there are third and fourth policies for this palace to govern the state. Third, this palace will make every effort to suppress the bandits while at the same time issue a security order; fourth, this palace will build a large number of waterwheels and canals in Minzhou. , to solve everyone's irrigation problem..."

"However, the construction of water conservancy will require a wide range of laborers, which will increase the corvee burden of the common people." Bai Zhenqi interrupted.

"What if I don't collect corvee, but drive the recruited bandits to do this?" Luo Fengxin asked back, and then said: "In addition, I also plan to lend money and food to the people who are willing to go back to work. As for the specific amount And the interest rate will be arranged after the number of people is counted. Of course, the interest rate will not be too heavy. The main purpose is to encourage everyone to go back to work. What does Mr. Bai think?"

While Bai Zhenqi was thinking, Luo Fengxin glanced at Qiao Wan, and had to say that Qiao Wan had a lot of tricks.It is true that Bai Zhenqi came to ask for advice to solve the current predicament of Qianyang City, but the core difference between the two of them was who should solve this predicament.

Bai Zhenqi is Zhong Xin's person, from his point of view, he naturally hopes to be inspired by Luo Fengxin, and then teach Zhong Xin, and Zhong Xin will promote and implement it, but Qiao Wan's method teaches him to see but not to eat, to know It's a good policy, but Zhong Xin just can't do it.

The reason is simple, no money.Zhong Xin can also issue orders to distribute land to the common people with light levies, but construction of water conservancy projects and suppression of bandits and recruiting security all cost money. Liu Chengye used all the money from the state government office to bribe Grand Master Chen, and the treasury There is not much left in Li, so what can Zhong Xin use to do these things?And if these things are not done, in the case of Minzhou, land distribution and tax cuts alone cannot cure the ills.

Bai Zhenqi said "Oh", stroked his beard and thought for a long time, then smiled wryly: "Your Highness is benevolent and righteous, Bai has been taught." After saying that, he stood up and saluted Luo Fengxin, then turned and left.

After the people left, Qiao Wan stretched long and said to Luo Feng, "Today's task is completed. Since he sincerely cares about people's livelihood, he won't be indifferent to our policies, although he can't be made to surrender just because of it." However, as long as we let him know our attitude, it is enough to plant a small seedling in his heart, and when the time is right, this small seedling will naturally grow into a towering tree."

But to completely solve the problem in Minzhou, these alone are not enough. After stretching, Qiao Wan put her elbows on the table and propped her cheeks, and fell into deep thought.

In fact, she still has an idea in her heart, but right now they are trapped in this small yard, what they can do is very limited, and the livelihood problem of the people in a state cannot be solved overnight, and the follow-up plan has to be investigated on the spot Decide again.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, Qiao Wan and Luo Fengxin in Qianyang City had a good time except that they had a bad meal, but Cen Qiong who was stationed near Miansi was not so happy.

Ever since the princess and princess left, he couldn't eat or sleep well. After the two entered Qianyang City, there was no news. He didn't know whether he was dead or alive. He was so anxious that he felt like a hot pot The ants can't sit or stand for a long time, walking around the camp all day long.

Finally, on the third day, Cen Qiong took out the bag given to him by the princess, found the one marked "one", pulled the rope, and stuck his index finger and middle finger into it. Touched a thin piece of paper.He hesitated, then withdrew his hand again.

It's still early, if the princess and the princess are already on their way back, if he rashly acted according to the content on the paper, wouldn't it ruin their plan?

He struggled for a long time, not knowing what to do, so he took the kit and went to Chang Feng.

Chang Feng was beaten that day and rested for a few days. Although his injuries were not fully healed, he was able to barely get off the ground.He is an active person. These days, he lies on the bed every day, feeling that his back is growing hair. After he can move a little, he moves around in the tent step by step with his gun on his waist. This is the posture of pouting It is not elegant if people see it.

He purposely got up early in the morning, usually no one came to look for him in the tent at this time, but today there was an accident, just two steps away, suddenly a person lifted the curtain and came in.He hurriedly wanted to straighten his waist, but who knew that this touched the wound on the heel of his leg, causing him to break out in a cold sweat, his hand slipped, the gun was not stuck, and his leg was weak, and he lost even more without the gun. Balanced, knees on the ground, buttocks squatting on the feet, "ouch", raised the buttocks reflexively.

As soon as Cen Qiong came in, when he raised his eyes, he saw Chang Fenggao lying on his stomach with his butt out, in a very indescribable posture.Cen Qiong retreated silently, cleared his throat, and asked, "Brother Chang, I'm here, Cen Qiong, I want to discuss something with you, may I come in?"

After a while, Changfeng's voice sounded from inside the tent: "Come in."

Cen Qiong lifted the curtain again and went in.No wonder he didn't pay attention to it for the first time, he is on the same level as Chang Feng, and he is a man, Chang Feng has been lying on the bed during this time, how could he expect to encounter such an embarrassing scene.

This time when he entered the tent, Chang Feng had already laid down on the bed, and the two of them pretended that nothing happened just now in a tacit understanding.Chang Feng first asked: "What's the matter, Brother Cen?"

Cen Qiong shared his concerns with Chang Feng, who waved his hand and said, "Hey, there's no reason to hesitate, just take it apart and have a look."

"Then what if..."

"What's in case, let's take a look first, brother, I'm also curious."

Seeing that Cen Qiong was still unable to make up his mind, Chang Feng thought of his ink stains, snatched the kit from him, took out the letter paper inside and unfolded it. After reading the contents, Cen Qiong exclaimed loudly: "This is a false edict. !!! Beheaded!"

"Hush——" Chang Feng covered Cen Qiong's mouth, and said to him in a low voice: "Fake imperial decree is death, the princess and the princess died in Qianyang City, we are also dead, both left and right are dead, how about Do as she says."

The author has something to say: qaq I'm sorry I accidentally passed the first to the second! ! !

I overestimated my writing speed. When I wrote this chapter, I spent a lot of time looking up information, and then I didn’t catch up.

On the first day of September, it was announced that full attendance for this month would be gone, which is also very heartbreaking.

The comments in the past two days have been a bit crowded, and I haven't had time to reply to everyone's comments, but I have read them all, thank you for your support~
