The whole city knows we are locked

Shen Yu was letting herself go in the East Lingering Garden, while Yan Chuyin was pretending to be obedient in front of a group of bosses.

On a holiday, Shen Cheng met three or five old friends to drink tea and play chess.Shen Yu was willing to be filial to the old man, and offered to go with his grandfather.As a result, on the way, there was a sudden change in Shen Yu's body, and Yan Chuyin was replaced.

Yan Chuyin had to help Shen Yu to be filial to the old man.

The meeting place is in a small Taoist temple in the capital.In the city, every inch of land is expensive, so the Taoist temple can't be built very big, it is square, and you can walk from one end of the Taoist temple to the other in a dozen steps.Guanzhu is one of the good friends of Prime Minister Shen. Besides, there is also a Shangshu, a minister of Dali Temple, and an old Hanlin who is often summoned by the emperor.

The temple master has prepared tea.A stove was lit next to the tea table, and hot air rose from the spout of the kettle.

Yan Chuyin felt that he was already very honest - he couldn't destroy Shen Yu's character design in front of this group of elite bosses - but others found him strange.Yan Chuyin naturally pulled out the chair, supported the old prime minister to sit down firmly, then glanced at the cakes on the table, picked out the same cake made of yam and sweet potato, moved it to the prime minister, and said obediently: "Grandpa , Eat two bites of cakes before drinking tea, it’s good for the stomach.”

The better the tea, the easier it is to feel hungry after tasting it.

Elderly people like the prime minister, if they don't pay attention when drinking tea, they will easily feel flustered and fatigued.But in the same way, elderly people should not eat too sweet and greasy snacks, which is not good for health preservation.The yam sweet potato cake is just right, it can fill the stomach without being so sweet.The yam itself also has the effect of strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach.

Yan Chuyin actually doesn't know much about medical theory, but she still knows the mutual generation and restraint of food, and knows what to eat in what state to be good for the body.There is an old saying that those who are children of men and women who do not know medicine are called unfilial.Yan Chuyin is always filial to the Queen Mother, and knows how to take care of the elderly, so there will be no mistakes in the general direction.

Prime Minister Shen stared at the pastry with burning eyes.

Yan Chuyin turned her head to look at the tea leaves brought out by the viewer.It was actually a good oolong tea!

Oolong tea is more powerful!

You should pad your stomach before drinking tea!

Seeing that the prime minister hadn't moved, Yan Chuyin picked up a pastry with her chopsticks in her right hand, held it with her left hand, and brought it to the prime minister's mouth: "Grandpa, I know you don't like pastries, but this tastes good. Just try it." !"

He also used this tone when he persuaded the Queen Mother to take medicine in the palace.After all, the queen mother is getting old, and the imperial physician will help prescribe some tonics on weekdays.The Queen Mother doesn't like to drink that.Especially in front of Yan Chuyin, if Yinnu didn't persuade her to take the medicine, she definitely wouldn't drink it.Over time, Yan Chuyin developed a set of skillful skills in coaxing the elderly to eat.

What an amazing skill!

Prime Minister Shen's pupils shrank suddenly.This mountain dog!Without explaining in advance, why did such a big move come suddenly!The old prime minister was obviously embarrassed, but luckily the city was deep enough and nothing could be seen on his face.

He obediently ate the food his grandson fed him.

I don't know if it is a psychological effect, but I always feel that today's yam and sweet potato cake is particularly delicious.

Seeing Prime Minister Shen eating deliciously, Yan Chuyin's eyes showed a bit of joy.He put down his chopsticks, sat back in his seat, put his feet together, put his two little paws on his knees obediently, and made a sensible appearance of listening to the adults quietly.I hope that the content of the bosses' conversations will not be too profound, otherwise I won't be able to pretend for a long time!

At this time, Yan Chuyin noticed that everyone's eyes were on her.

What's wrong, did I do something wrong?Probably not, my sitting posture is obviously in line with etiquette, and I paid special attention to the hem of my clothes when I sat down, so that there are no big folds.Yan Chuyin looked down at her obediently placed little paws, and she didn't move her hands randomly. When Uncle Huang was discussing things with people in front of me, I was like this.

Yan Chuyin looked at the old prime minister again.The old prime minister ate the cakes unhurriedly.

Yan Chuyin suddenly realized, and looked at the temple master and several other elders: "Everyone eat! Eat! Although tea should be light in the mouth, you can taste the original taste of tea. But today, elders and my grandfather are good friends. It’s not that particular about getting together, it’s natural to come as convenient as possible. Everyone should put their stomachs first.”

You can eat as much as you want, and you are all staring at me for what!

Yan Chuyin looked back at everyone calmly.

The elders all laughed.It was rare to see such a junior who was so relaxed in front of them.From this look, we can tell that the family has loose control.As long as the rules at home are stricter, it will not be like this!Of course, there's nothing wrong with that.It's just that the elders felt strange in their hearts, and they all teased Prime Minister Shen with their eyes--I never expected that you, who are deep-minded and scheming, are still a kind grandfather at home!

Prime Minister Shen: "..."

Hmph, jealousy!You are just jealous of me!

It was originally agreed not to talk about state affairs today.Although most of the people present were important officials of the court, the important officials also had their own private lives.It's rare to have a little idle time, isn't it good to just drink tea and talk about romance?

But as we chatted, the topic turned to state affairs in the end.

First, the old Hanlin who was often summoned by the emperor said that the imperial court intends to promote the old imperial examination papers recently, so can we take this opportunity to issue orders to the county schools in various places and ask them to elect a special person to be in charge of the old papers? Stand at the gate of the county school every day and read old volumes and related articles.If anyone wants to listen, no matter whether they have fame or not, no matter what their status is, as long as they show up at the gate of the county school every day, they can listen to this person's recitation.

"In this way, it can also inspire people's wisdom." Old Hanlin said.

The Minister of Dali Temple said, if you want to inspire people's wisdom, what's the use of finding a few people to read the old imperial examination papers? You should go to the countryside to open a school, not the kind of school that teaches people the imperial examination. You only need to teach people a few words, I just understand some truths. Didn’t someone propose to set up elementary schools in the countryside before? Why didn’t there be any noise later?

The Minister of Dali Temple changed the subject and said that as the Minister of Dali Temple, various case files from all over the country are collected in his hands every year. When sorting out these files, he often feels helpless.Many criminals commit crimes and many victims suffer because they don't understand!It's all because the people's wisdom is not yet developed!

The elder Shangshu then said that enlightening people's wisdom is indeed important, but it costs a lot to set up elementary schools in various villages. If they all depend on the national treasury, to be honest, the national treasury may not be able to afford it now.

Since the founding of the country, the dynasty has been thriving as a whole, but a series of policies advocated by the country have always been to "hide wealth in the people". People's lives are indeed better, but the treasury has not really "rich"!

And "the life of the common people is indeed better", this statement sounds very good, right?But after a closer look, the so-called better life is just that the stomach can barely eat half full, half of the children born can be raised up in a daze, and sick children can be thrown into orphanages instead of being thrown into the wild to fend for themselves It's... the people are still in trouble!

They are just better off than before, just better than most of the past.If everyone in the world could have enough to eat and be able to afford medical care, then the emperors of this dynasty would probably be able to directly ascend to sainthood!

Shang Shu said: "The imperial court is also difficult. Who can guarantee that life will be good and there will be no more natural disasters? Look at these years, either here is drought, or there is waterlogging. How can you tell them to live if you can’t transport the grain to the disaster-stricken people in time? The northwestern side spends money every year! The aristocratic family... Oh, doesn’t the emperor know the benefits of changing rice into mulberry in the south of the Yangtze River? But now, does the imperial court dare to issue an order to change rice into mulberry? Some things are not straightened out, once rice is changed to mulberry, it will be a disaster!"

The national treasury is so difficult, how can it support a nationwide public welfare elementary school?

Furthermore, there are quite a few oppositions from the DPRK and China to the establishment of Mongolian scholars.In their words, agriculture is the foundation of the country, and ordinary people should farm in peace and contentment. Nothing is more important than farming.Once started, it not only consumes money and materials, but also is of little use.Teach those people how to read, and then what?Can literacy help them farm?

Certainly not!On the contrary, it is easy to learn the mind, which is not conducive to the stability of the country.

Many of these opponents are still sincerely thinking about the imperial court.It's impossible to say!

Hearing this, Dali Siqing could only shake his head helplessly.He couldn't help talking about a sorceress deceiving people, a sorceress who knows nothing, by pretending to be a ghost, amassed tens of thousands of taels of money in a poor mountainous area!You must know that the taxes and taxes in that land for several years did not add up to tens of thousands of taels!Dozens of people have been directly or indirectly killed by the sorceress.

If it wasn't for the magistrate being in charge, the problem would have been discovered shortly after he was transferred. In addition, the magistrate was cautious and went directly to his superiors to ask for troops. When he was eradicating the witch, he was not killed by the people who wholeheartedly supported the witch.

This is the tragedy caused by the lack of wisdom of the people!

Such tragedies could have been avoided.In order to support the sorceress, many families of those people are already so poor that they sell their sons and daughters. Are they really without flesh and blood?No, they were just deceived, fearful because of ignorance, and because of fear, even if they were about to starve to death, they still wanted to offer a handful of rice to the sorceress.

How many broken families are behind this case!The moods of the elders all became heavy.

The old Hanlin said: "Hey, so what I mean is... why don't you take advantage of the promotion of old volumes and ask the county schools in various places to elect a recitation officer, who will do nothing else every day, just at the gate of the county school. Reciting the scrolls. It shouldn’t cost much money. On the surface, it has nothing to do with enlightening people’s wisdom. It’s just to promote old scrolls. They can learn a thing or two. If they learn it, when they go home and tell their families and neighbors, the family and neighbors will also benefit."

Reading can make people enlightened.The topics on the old imperial examination papers, especially those on policy papers, are often related to state affairs.As long as a person has learned the etiquette, as long as he knows the family, the country and the world, even if they are just a farmer, it will be different.At least at least, they won't be fooled by a sorcerer who pretends to be a ghost.

Furthermore, if the people under the rule have some vision, would some local officials still dare to be lazy and tyrannical?Do the local tyrants in that place still dare to hide their population and enclose their land in a disguised form?Only when local officials do something, can a place be governed better and better.Only when the local tyrants have scruples will the lives of the people really improve.

Yan Chuyin's heart ached when she heard it.

It turns out that the treasury is so poor!The emperor's uncle was exhausted and diligent in handling government affairs every day, but he couldn't ensure that every commoner could have enough food.It turns out that it is so difficult for many people to have enough food!

Yan Chuyin thought in her heart that since she was raised by her parents, all the things in the private treasury could be donated.Just donate it to the emperor's uncle. It is also good to fill the treasury a little bit.

When he fell into deep thought, the expression on his face immediately enriched.

Before they knew it, the elders stopped talking and their eyes fell on Yan Chuyin.They originally thought that Shen Yu was the kind of young and mature person, and it was the first time they knew that this child would have such a lively side in private.

Look at the expression on his face, he obviously didn't say a word, but he seemed to have said everything.

It was so much fun!
