After I was reborn, I became a plug-in for the country

Kangxi looked at his absent-minded son with mixed feelings in his heart.

It is a good thing for this child to have a basic understanding of the sufferings of the people, and it is also a good thing to understand the source of the problem.But it's not a good thing to look at things and only look at the root cause without looking at the results.Especially such a major event that concerns the interests of everyone and affects the whole body.

He didn't want to say too much on this matter.The child is still young, it is too early to learn the art of the emperor.

The father and son only stalemate for a while, and Kangxi asked Yinreng to go back to Yuqing Palace to continue his studies on the grounds of political affairs.

Yinreng walked out of Qianqing Palace, feeling slightly depressed.

Khan Ama didn't know the outcome of the Qing Dynasty's destruction of the country in the future, nor would he have thought that it was the fundamental issues he didn't want to talk about that led to such a bleak ending.

All the causes and effects are known only to him.For a while, Yinfeng didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky.

The sun was very strong at noon, and he was a little dazed by the sun.

No matter how depressed Yinreng is in his heart, time will not stop moving forward because of his temporary setback.

Everyone in the court still has all the overall perspectives that are needed in the face of a disaster.Disaster relief work has been going on in an orderly manner.From mid-July to the end of the eighties, the imperial court allocated tens of thousands of buckets of grain and several 10 taels of silver to relieve the disaster.

The food entered the state capitals and was consumed in a short time.However, the money is like running water, passing through the hands of officials big and small, and circulating among all parts of the country one after another.It is still in Longzhong today, and it may be in Huguang tomorrow.

Disaster relief not only requires food, but also needs a lot of money to arrange the resettlement and supporting treatment of the victims.Nowadays, officials in various places are not as corrupt as they will be in the future, so the amount of silver that falls into the pockets of officials is much less than what is spent on the people.

With the vigorous operation and cooperation of officials from all over the country, the disaster was finally brought under control.According to the statistics of the disaster-affected population reported by various places at the end of August, the number of people who starved to death due to the disaster was limited to a reasonable range.

The political achievements of the whole court this year, and also because of this drought, can be regarded as a good result.

In September, preparations for the next winter plowing will begin again.

There is still no sign of rain in the sky, and the lake with a small water storage capacity has long since dried up.In the south where the density of rivers is relatively high and there are many water systems, winter plowing and planting can still be supported.However, there is little rain and rivers in the north, not to mention sowing, raising seedlings is very difficult.

For some reason, discussions on political affairs began to go astray inexplicably.Officials who are familiar with Confucian works, under the influence of the people, can't help but want to try the theory of ghosts and gods.For some reason, the discussion in the early morning shifted subtly from disaster relief to how to pray for rain.

Some officials even discussed in private whether the emperor should personally sacrifice to the heaven and the earth, and then issue a sinful edict to ask the heaven to express when it will rain.

In fact, everyone has long been exhausted physically and mentally by the continuous drought, and they all want to get rid of it as soon as possible.

This was originally an unintentional private remark between one or two officials, but it slowly spread for some reason.Most of the courtiers have an ambiguous attitude towards this matter, but no one dares to mention it publicly.

By the end of September, the rumors were already faintly boiling.Now there is only one person missing who will pierce the window paper.

Kangxi knew long before the rumors spread that some officials wanted him to "crime himself".He was angry in his heart, but he could not clearly punish the person who spoke because of it.The more the punishment is, the more it seems to be a cover-up, which will inevitably attract criticism from all officials.

But he was also very unwilling to ask him to write the edict of guilt himself.Of all the emperors who have held real power since ancient times, no one likes to sin against oneself.

In addition to being angry, Kangxi was also slightly wronged.He ascended the throne at the age of eight and became a pro-government at the age of 16, thinking that he would do his best for the people of the world.Work diligently every day, and dare not slack off.Not to mention very meritorious deeds, but why did it go to the point of sinning oneself.

Because of this unspeakable grievance, the emperor himself kept silent, and the sacrifice had to be postponed.

This matter was brewing until the end of September, and a tacit understanding gradually developed between the officials and the imperial power.However, this tacit understanding is more like an invisible confrontation. Compared with the previous joint efforts to relieve disasters, now it is more like seeing who can't bear it and bowing their heads first to admit their mistakes.

On the surface the matter was shelved.

But secretly, many officials have already connected together, preparing to present a booklet jointly signed by hundreds of officials, and handing it over at the right time.Even Tong Guogang, several times in private, was mostly hesitant to speak.

Because he has already started to get in touch with the government, Yinfeng naturally heard about it.But when it comes to the "edict of guilt", he was the first to defend Khan Ama: "These ministers are too much! They are just ministers who don't try their best to share the king's worries, but they want to join forces to persecute Khan Ama. It's really abominable!"

The system did not express too many opinions on this matter, but said realistically: "Rain is a kind of natural weather, and it cannot be changed artificially with the current backward methods."

Yinfeng: "..."

Who can get this thing out of his head that has always been against him?

He said angrily: "Ama Khan is now under the control of hundreds of officials, and the situation is very difficult. How can I have the mood to joke with you?"

In view of his frequent anger recently, the system maintains the rationality of a sophisticated program, "It's just using people's hearts to control public opinion, so why be nervous, Your Highness. I believe your father will find a way."

Maybe it's because Yinreng's mood fluctuated too much recently, and he was too worried about the matter of "enclosing land and dividing land".In order to enlighten him, the system felt that it was necessary to talk about the drought.

"It's better to be prepared for the rainy day than to hold your feet when things come to an end. Your Highness thinks, in order to prevent such disasters in the future, what preparations should we make now?"

Yinfeng said sullenly: "Apart from finding ways to increase food production, what else is there?"

"There is a severe drought in the world, and the water source is exhausted. Don't His Highness think that this water source should also be reserved in advance?"

"How to reserve?"

"This year's drought is a special situation. However, there are many floods in the south. If a dam can be built according to local conditions to release floods during floods and irrigate during droughts, don't your highness think that much can be prevented?"

Hearing this, Yinfeng was shocked.

This is naturally very good.The Zhengguo Canal, which was vigorously built in the Qin Dynasty, was exactly the function that the system said, so Sichuan and Shu had the grand scene of the land of abundance later.

However, the national treasury is now completely empty due to disaster relief, not to mention the construction of reservoirs and dams, and there is no money to support Mongolia next year.

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry, as long as you keep this matter in mind and make plans in the future."

"I've only remembered this matter. It's just that few people know about Hegong..."

He remembered that in his previous life, Khan Ama had also thought about building a flood control dam, but he couldn't find anyone to take care of it.The tax revenue of the imperial court can only be dragged down by the floods year after year, and cannot be completely relieved.

"The construction of water conservancy projects requires a thorough knowledge of rivers and water systems in various places, as well as a huge knowledge reserve of corresponding subjects. It is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself, so Your Highness must study hard."

"..." Going around, you still want to squeeze Gu.

This confrontation between the monarch and his subjects did not last long.On the first day of October, the sky was overcast with clouds.For the next few days, the sky was overcast and cloudy.

The sky seemed to be depressed for a long time, and finally a huge thunderstorm brewed on the fifth day of October.The heavy rain lasted for three consecutive days, and the previously dry land was soaked by the heavy rain for three days.

Fortunately, the roots of the seedlings planted before have already grasped the center of the earth, and the government arranged for the people to cover them in advance, so the cultivation this winter has not been affected too much.

Kangxi and all the courtiers were relieved at the same time, and the invisible persecution and embarrassment in the court were relieved.

Not long after the heavy rain, Yigui in the harem was diagnosed with a happy pulse again.

Kangxi was overjoyed, and in the name of Yigui's contribution to conceiving the emperor's heir, promoted her status from nobleman to concubine.

When Yinfeng heard about this, he was learning about it behind his back.Systematic education and drought made him realize the importance of mastering the rules of astronomy and climate change.Right now, the most important thing for him is to learn more.As for the matter of having more younger brothers, he was already numb, and his mood didn't fluctuate at all.

He did some calculations, if nothing unexpected happens, the one Yipin is pregnant with should be Lao Jiu.

In his impression, Lao Jiu is a fat man who never looks at the occasion when he speaks, is very annoying, and also lowers the average score of the brothers' appearance.

The system is very curious why Yinfeng has always been so hostile to his brothers, "At first His Highness hated the fourth elder brother, and later he hated the eighth elder brother. Did they do something to His Highness before?"

Yinfeng's face remained calm, and he still concentrated on endorsing the letter.

They are all competitors, hate is hate, there is no need for a reason.

Now that all the major affairs in the court have come to an end, although he still has to attend the court in the morning, he is much more relaxed than before.Not long ago, the system knew that his travel plan was completely scrapped, and then added a physics course for him.

After he complained many times, one more creature was added, causing his time to be crammed again now.

Even though the system later adjusted the courses he took to two courses a day, all courses were taken in rotation.Classwork still takes up all of his time, who is in the mood to discuss competitors.

The system has long been used to being ignored by him, and continued to talk freely: "They are all your relatives, Your Highness, why do you have to be hostile? Didn't Your Highness also complain that there are too few people available? Why don't you draw them all in now? Where is your helper?"

Yinfeng had a strange expression, "You want to win them over alone?"

He fantasized about the scene where he and Lao Ba Lao Jiu get along naturally, talking and laughing happily, and he couldn't help getting goose bumps all over his body.

So he repeatedly denied: "No, let's forget about the fourth. But Gu will definitely not be in cahoots with the eighth and ninth."

He has been facing each other for so long in his previous life, and he still has a deep impression of those difficult situations.Even now, the eighth and the ninth are still milk babies with big farts, and they can be kneaded at will.Yinfeng still can't get close to them from the bottom of his heart.

"Is it better to have one more enemy than one more helper? Your Highness has a lot to do, and you have given up Suo'etu first, so who will you ask to help you with these things in the future?"

The system pretended to be very regretful and said: "His Royal Highness will fight alone in the court hall, so be careful everywhere."

Yinfeng's face quickly turned into a bitter gourd.He naturally knew that what the system said was right, but the gap in his heart could not be eliminated with just a few words.

He struggled several times, and was finally discouraged and compromised.So he gritted his teeth and said, "You're right, if I have time, I will definitely go and get in touch with my younger brothers!"

Seeing that he was thinking about it, the system said again: "If you can let go of your temper against your biggest competitor, then their Highness should also be able to forgive you?"

Yinfeng couldn't believe what he heard, "You mean, you want to please those people alone?"

After all, Lao Ba Lao Jiu is his brother, so it’s okay to move around more.For other people, Khan Ama would suspect him of winning people's hearts and forming cliques for personal gain if they had a lot of contacts.Thankless effort!

"It's not about flattery. Your Highness must learn to seek help from them. Unite all forces that can be united to do great things."

The tone of the system became more and more negative, "Isn't Your Highness worried that the mention of returning Tian Yumin will be targeted by the relatives and noble ministers? If there is someone who protects you from thunder, wouldn't your pressure be much less?"

Do you think I'm asking you to curry favor with them?I want you to find a shield, Your Highness!

Yinfeng's eyes became brighter and brighter, "What you said is very reasonable, Gu just happened to think of a good candidate."

Moreover, he was [-]% sure that even if he took the initiative to befriend this person, Khan Ama would not suspect him of forming a party.

"Oh? Your Highness is really smart." The system guessed who Yinrong was thinking of, and smiled meaningfully.

That's it, Your Highness, keep walking on the road of black belly.
