Mighty and Majestic Concubine Wan Gui

Chapter 120 The Emperor's Ridicule and Grand Plan

Criticizing memorials is just like students’ homework, it is always endless——Zhu Jianshen

In the past, I thought that only my love for Sister Wan could be said to be endless, but now I know that the memorials are also endless——Zhu Jianshen

When I was still the prince, I really couldn't understand why the faint king would indulge in beauty and stay away from the government. Now I understand, I really understand—Zhu Jianshen.

Poor little baby Zhu was lying shirtless in the pile of memorials, turning over the book extremely fast, writing like flying.The price of diligence is that he is as good at cursive as the doctors in the hospital, and writes very quickly. As for the clarity, it is about the same.

The fat man is more afraid of the heat than ordinary people in summer, so he simply took off his unlined clothes when there were no outsiders.The clothes are hung on the side. If you call someone in to discuss matters, just put on a belt.

And Wan Zhen'er was sitting next to the cold air from the ice cubes, eating ice powder tributed by Sichuan in a jade bowl, and someone beat her legs to relieve the edema during pregnancy, and there was a volume of novels in hand, it was so chic and comfortable

Zhu Jianshen reviewed more than a dozen memorials written by officials from the same province reporting the same incident in a row, then raised his head abruptly, and said quietly, "Sister Wan, do you know how many catties of memorials Qin Shihuang has to review every day?"

He understands the truth and is still angry!When a disaster occurs in a certain place, the local magistrate, county magistrate, and relevant officials must report to the imperial court. Of course, it is true that everyone must truthfully report what they have seen to the emperor. For major events, you cannot join the book.

Lianhe Shangben was suspected of forming a party for personal gain.But well!It is very annoying for him to watch the same thing several times or even a dozen times!

Wan Zhen'er was taken aback: "Memorial... When will we start talking about everything?"

"Hmph! They used bamboo slips! Bamboo slips!"

"Oh..." Wan Zhen'er thought of the high-quality imitation bamboo slips she had seen, which seemed to be very heavy, and she couldn't write too many characters.She hesitated, "One hundred catties?"

"Four hundred catties!" Zhu Jianshen stroked the beard stubble on his chin, and smiled gloatingly, "How tired he is!" The bamboo slips of four hundred catties hahahahaha, he was exhausted hahahahaha!Indeed, exhausted, hahahahaha.

He took pleasure in bitterness, imagining Qin Shihuang winning the government, even if the eunuch moved the bamboo slips to his side, took away the scrolls and put them on the table, then he had to unfold them by himself.Reading the memorial every day can make Ying Zheng develop a wrist as thick as a bowl, and strong and powerful arms. "Hey hey hey hey it's no wonder there were so many fools during the Warring States Period! Those fat people whose bodies were hollowed out by wine and sex would probably faint from exhaustion after reading a few volumes of memorials."

Wan Zhen'er said slowly: "It's no wonder that the princes and kings at that time were able to go to the battlefield in person, integrating memorial writing and martial arts training into one."

She suddenly remembered: "Wait a minute, did you use bamboo slips instead of silk for the memorial book for the emperor? I remember silk was used back then, right?"

Zhu Jianshen said: "Silk silk is currency and can only be used occasionally. It is too extravagant to use it for writing every day."

Yu Qian interjected at the side: "The edicts of the princes are made of silk, while the officials of various places use bamboo slips." He said slowly, the way of transportation, the way of government orders, local political policies, and the division of military and political power during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. over again.

That's how well-informed and knowledgeable!Just so knowledgeable!

The emperor listened to a small lecture on popular science while approving the memorial, his mind was a little confused, hey, he accidentally wrote down what Yu Qian said, crossed it out!

Wan Zhen'er ate the fourth bowl of ice powder, and asked quietly: "Since silk can be used as money, why don't they use silver to make boards and engrave words on them? The silver can be melted and rewritten at any time."

Zhu Jianshen raised his head and wiped his sweat: "Is the silver very soft?"

"Very soft. Well, there is a tooth mark when you bite into it."

Zhu Jian looked at her with eyes full of mosquito coils: "Sister Wan, what are you... biting money for?"

"Uh, to identify true and false."

"Can you tell the real from the fake?" Zhu Jianshen was very surprised: "Is there such a miraculous thing? Is it the same with antiques, you can tell the real from the fake with just one bite?" Could it be that this is the ability given to you by the gods?It may not look good, but it is very practical!

Yu Qian was also surprised by this. People like him who have inherited family training since childhood, passed down poems and etiquette, and have a long history of family education, did not know that they can distinguish the real from the fake by biting the silver with their teeth. Knowing the approximate purity of the silver, the servants at home have to carry him even if they bite the silver.

Wan Zhen'er blushed slowly, biting silver ingots was something she did when she was a child, but in fact... she couldn't tell the truth from the fake.

I didn't pay attention when I said it just now, but now that I think about it, I'm so shy!

He picked up the fan and fanned himself: "I can't. Oh, hurry up and approve the memorial, and go to bed early after you finish your work."

"Okay." Continue to work hard.

After a while, Wan Zhen'er knew rationally that she had eaten a lot, but she still wanted to eat. Reason was struggling with appetite.

The emperor turned to a new playbook and suddenly froze.This playbook says that there are many children and men who eunuch themselves in a certain place, wanting to enter the palace to be eunuchs, and want to enter the palace to beg for food and clothing. After a closer look, although the playbook is vague, but The phrase 'they don't have to pay taxes after castration' was mentioned, apparently for tax avoidance.Alas, tyranny is fiercer than a tiger.

The book implies, why do you not have to pay taxes after castration?Because the tax is collected according to 'Cheng Ding', Ding refers to adult men who are able to work, children are exempt from tax, women are tax-exempt, old people are exempt from tax, widows, widows, and disabled people are tax-exempt.Since the palace, there is no little Ding Ding, it is not a Ding.For various reasons, the people in some places couldn't keep two or three acres of Susukida, and they had to pay taxes for food and clothing. They were either forced to sell their sons and daughters, or they were cut off across the board, and they went to Beijing and went to the vassal palaces of various places to make a living.But there are so many people in the world, even if only one ten-thousandth of them can't survive, they have to go to the palace as a last resort, and they can't use it in the palace and the vassal prince's mansion.

These eunuchs who can’t enter the palace to eat are poor people who can’t make a living. They don’t have land, and they can’t work as slaves in ordinary people’s homes. overstep.When the officials of the DPRK and China attack each other, they often use eunuchs to attack the other party for violating the law and disobedience. If there are eunuchs pretending to be ordinary people and going to work in other people's homes, they are right!

Zhu Jian sighed deeply: "I originally planned to abolish the eunuch system. The palace does not recruit eunuchs. Why are they, alas?"

How can they do it themselves?I feel pain when I see these two words!

Yanhao is the most comfortable thing in the world!

The eunuch stood beside him all the time, just serving the emperor silently, carrying memorials, refilling tea and pouring water, walking without sound, holding things without sound, as delicate as an invisible person.Hearing the emperor's sudden words, most of them exclaimed, "Ah!"

"what?"

"emperor?"

Hearing their chaotic exclamation, Zhu Jian raised his head to look: "What's wrong?"

The palm print eunuch: "Why does the emperor suddenly have such a plan?" The eunuch Bingbi: "What is your plan, your majesty?"

The expression on Wynn's face was very complicated. He was confused, joyful and terrified. He asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, do you plan to stop using us eunuchs from now on?"

Zhu Jianshen thought for a while: "I want to ask for as little as possible, so that the common people can live and work in peace and contentment without being slaves in the palace." Live a good life and pay taxes seriously!Serve corvée!He saw that Wynn was very scared, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, maybe I can't finish this task in my lifetime, and I have to do my best. Palace people come from all over the country and leave their hometown. It's nothing. But the palace maids are not allowed to leave the palace for life, and you can only be given out of the palace when you are old, without your family to accompany you, this is really hurtful. I really can't bear it in my heart."

He glanced at Sister Wan who was sitting next to her with red eyes, and sighed, "You should have wives and children too. The first person who invented the eunuch policy is more hateful than the one who started it."

Yu Qian applauded very calmly beside him. This is a great deed for the country and the country.

The eunuchs behaved differently, and some immediately knelt down and praised tearfully: "Your Majesty, you are a sage of benevolence and virtue that has never existed before!"

There are also people who are secretly dissatisfied, complaining that their fate is so bad, and they don't want to see themselves as the last wave of eunuchs.Our family suffers, why don't these little monkey cubs suffer?

Wynn was very calm: "Your Majesty, when the villain gets old, who do you plan to use to connect the inner and outer courts?" In the back palace, only maids can be used. What about the former dynasty, and the three main halls?

Zhu Jianshen thought for a while, and then looked at the memorial book in front of him: "This memorial says that many children have been eunuchs, and they plan to send them to the palace until they are used up. Maybe I can recruit good children from the suburbs of Beijing. When I was young, I entered the palace to serve, and the families of those powerful officials who have power over the government and the public are not eunuchs."

Huai En said again: "What if the son of a good family has an affair with the palace maid?"

Zhu Jianshen thought for a while: "Give me a marriage." He has a deep memory of the adults' teachings, and the widow is lustful.

Wynn was startled, thought this was also a solution, and asked: "Can the emperor let Cheng Ding walk in the harem?" You only have one Wan Niangniang now, will there be only one in the future?Only one for a lifetime?There is also a queen mother in the palace!The Queen Mother Zhou is only in her 30s this year!As time goes on, it's inevitable that there are people who are daring, and my concubine hooked up with the housekeeper's son!snort!

Zhu Jianshen said without even thinking about it: "There is only Sister Wan in my palace, as for future generations, don't recruit so many concubines, it will hurt your health."

Sister Wan can't be sorry for me. As for the offspring, they will also be with the woman they like, and if they have a beloved queen, they don't need to find another concubine!Having a baby is troublesome.

Wan Zhen'er listened to it and felt that it was not feasible.
