[Red Mansion] The occupation of Huangsang!

Chapter 37 Being a king and an official, benefiting the country and the people

Shortly after the full moon banquet, it entered the late autumn.I don't know why, but this year's climate is extremely changeable, the summer is unbearably hot, and in autumn, the 24 autumn tigers roast people until they peel off a layer of skin.

As soon as this hot autumn is over, it will soon enter the warm winter.Shui Lan was still thinking that this year's Dongtou would not be too cold, a cold current from Northwest Lia suddenly swept across the entire capital.The weather suddenly dropped, and it immediately turned from mild winter to severe cold.Shui Lan gets up together every day, and when she rushes to the Golden Luan Hall to go to court in the morning, the cold wind that hits her face cuts her cheek like a knife, which is very painful.

In the early court, the three princes left behind by the Supreme Emperor stood in the Jinluan Hall with weather-stained faces and reported that this winter was extremely cold and the weather was erratic.

The three princes of the Yong Dynasty are the collective name of the three positions of Taishi, Taifu, and Taibao. They are the first-rank official positions. They are responsible for assisting the emperor in handling important state affairs and government affairs. The position is the most important.Among them, Zhang Gelao, the grand master of the Sangong, has passed away, and his son Zhang Dian took the position and concurrently served as the grand master of the prince; Li Shan, the grand master, was a Jinshi in the 19th year of Yonghe, and served as governor of Liangjiang, Futai, Zheng of Dali Temple, Wenhuadian University He is a scholar and the prince and Taifu. He is upright and upright. He is a person who is simple in the emperor's heart.As for the last Taibao and Prince Taibao.He was born in a family of meritorious service, Feng Tang, a martial arts general.

Compared with the previous emperor who didn't pay much attention to armed forces, Shui Lan paid special attention to the army.After Shui Lan took office, in addition to grasping the army by herself, becoming an independent Jinyiwei who only gave her command and orders, she also recruited a group of veteran generals who were depressed, among which General Feng Tang of Shenwu was one of them.As for the Nan'an Palace in the original book of the Red Chamber, where they lost the battle and needed someone to marry, but their own daughter was reluctant and pushed other women out.Hehehe, the first thing Shui Lan did when she took office was to communicate with Yunqian state-owned letters on the grounds that the number of military supplies was wrong, kicked her out of the army, and lowered her title to a state marquis.

For Shui Lan, the wrong number of military supplies and corruption can be considered forgiving, but Nima's correspondence with the enemy country is not worthy of forgiveness. As the ruler of a country, Shui Lan did not directly copy his Everyone is looking at the face of the ancestors of the Shui family, and let them walk in front of them, hehe, Shui Lan does not guarantee that she will not be cruel and directly destroy his nine clans.

The three men invited them together, and Shui Lan was too angry to lose his temper, although he really wanted to spit on the three old faces and spit on them.Nima, I need to ask about everything, what use is there for you!What's the use! ! !

"Officials from the household department can be arranged to start treatment."

"Your Majesty, the affairs of the household department are managed by the household secretary, and the ministers dare not exceed their authority!!"

The three men shook their heads at the same time, and that neat movement caused the veins on Shui Lan's forehead to twitch.

"Hubu Shangshu is on the list." Shui Lan said in a cold voice.

The Hubu Shangshu, one of the six books of "Chen...Chen Zai", is an old man standing there trembling because of the cold weather.Seeing that he was so cold that he couldn't even speak fluently, Shui Lan shook her head and asked Wu Dequan to place more than a dozen braziers around the corners of the Golden Luan Hall before she frowned and asked in a flat voice.

"Recently, the climate is changing rapidly, and Shang Shuke has arranged for manpower to treat the people who are suffering from the cold."

The elderly Wrinkle Shangshu looked at Shui Lan blankly, and after a long time he bowed timidly and said. "The minister is guilty..."

Watery...

"Since Zou Shangshu is so afraid of the cold, he shouldn't have come to court so early. From now on, Zou Shangshu can rest at home!"

People in their 100s and [-]s are still greedy for official positions, and they don't take the initiative to report their old age and return to their hometowns. What's the use of such old things that don't know what to ask and don't take up positions.I don't know if I should give up my position to young people when I am old.Shui Lan, who suddenly lost her temper, didn't care about Zou Shangshu crying, and directly ordered him to be deprived of his official position, gave him [-] taels of gold, and asked him to retire and return home.

After Zou Shangshu withdrew, Shui Lan called the left and right servants of the household department to come out and ask questions.These two people were in the middle of their age and seemed to be in high spirits, but they also had nothing to eat. When Shui Lan asked, she hesitated and dared not answer.

Seeing this scene, Shui Lan smiled coolly. "A trash who doesn't know three things, what use do you think I want you." As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials in the court bowed their heads and said at the same time. "Please appease the emperor's anger, the ministers are in panic."

Fear your sister, fear.

Shui Lan, who was holding her breath in her chest, felt angry.After taking the position of Minister of the Ministry of Accounting, he also took the positions of Minister of the Ministry of Accounting, the left and right servants, and two people. "The Commander of Jingwei envoys Jia Jing to come out."

Shui Lan's cheap cousin-in-law Jia Jing stood out from the military attache's lineup.

"The minister is here." Jia Jing bowed respectfully and said.

"I allow you to bring everyone in the Jingwei command post, Ma Kai, together with the household doctor, the staff, and the chief, to start the rescue work. As for the household department secretary, you will take the post of minister first. If I know that you also eat vegetarian meals in the dead body, you will also Just go home and sell sweet potatoes like them!"

For the time being, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, who is not in the ranks of the ninth rank, but can temporarily act as a minister, and is expected to become a full-time official, happily saluted and led the decree.As the morning court continued, this group of officials of the Yong Dynasty, whose brain structure was different from ordinary people, seemed to have forgotten the storm of being dismissed from office first, and quarreled over trivial matters again.Among them, Dr. Yushitai had a heated debate with the officials of the Ministry of Rites on whether officials should drink flower wine in court.

His forehead ached from their quarrel, Shui Lan angrily threw the memorial on the smooth floor tiles vigorously, only then did he stop the chaotic debate in the vegetable market.

"Should officials drink flower wine..." Shui Lan sneered. "If you go out to drink flower wine in this weather, aren't you afraid that the thing underneath will freeze into a popsicle! And should this kind of thing be discussed in the court?"

All civil and military officials were silent, and some of them even clamped their legs unconsciously.Seeing this, Shui Lan sneered again. "In view of the fact that the father did not issue an explicit order that officials should not drink flower wine when he was in power, I am here to declare that after I go to court, I will not take care of it, but if you dare to invite prostitutes and drink flower wine during work , I will not steal your home, I will try to find a place for you in the palace... You must know that my guards in brocade clothes and secrets are not vegetarians."

As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials tightened their legs.Emma, ​​even the dark guards in brocade clothes who can know what they eat every night, how many times they went to the toilet, whether they sleep with the eldest wife or the younger wife, they are really scared.

"The minister is terrified."

After intimidating all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, Shui Lan, who finally felt at ease, went back to the Yuxiong Palace for a simple meal, and then went to the Yangxin Palace to deal with political affairs.These memorials were sent to the capital quickly from all states and counties, and they were placed on the large table in the Hall of Mental Cultivation by classification according to their hometown.

Shui Lan used a vermilion pen to carefully correct each one, and when all the sent memorials were corrected, it was already dark.Shui Lan threw away the vermilion pen, rubbed her sore neck, and gave instructions to Wu Dequan who had been guarding her. "Drive to Kunning Palace."

Wu Dequan took the order, and in a short while, Long Tuo was ready.Shui Lan fell in love with Long Lun, closed her eyes and meditated, and Long Lun arrived at Kunning Palace steadily.Shui Lan got off Long Yu, ignored the respectful greetings from the people of Kunning Palace, and went straight into the main hall of Kunning Palace.

At this time, Wu Tingfang did not stay in the main hall, but went to the side room connected to the main hall of Kunning, to see her twins who didn't like to open their eyes or move very much.When Wu Tingfang went, the time was not so good, the two children had already gone to bed, and the nanny of the two children was watching them sitting in the pit and doing handicrafts.

Seeing Wu Tingfang, the two nannies hurriedly saluted.After Wu Tingfang waved her hand to signal that there was no need to be too polite, she walked to the bed lightly, quietly looked at the two children lying side by side on the bed, wrapped tightly in the red quilt, and smiled gone.Wu Tingfang, who had returned to her dormitory, was going to go to bed to rest, but who would have thought that Shui Lan would come at this time.

So Wu Tingfang yawned and asked a little puzzled. "Why is Your Majesty free to come and sit with me today?"

"I miss you."

Shui Lan said casually, and sat on the huanghuali wood chair covered with soft fur cushions.His expression was calm but with a hint of fatigue. "Tingfang, do you feel that the weather is a bit strange recently?"

Wu Tingfang was taken aback for a moment, and said in a slightly confused and puzzled way. "How strange."

"Sometimes it's bitterly cold, and another moment it's sunny again, just like today, the sun is shining brightly but there's a cold wind blowing..."

"Hearing what His Majesty said, the weather is very strange." Wu Tingfang suddenly felt uneasy after thinking about it, she couldn't help biting her teeth, and asked Shui Lan in a low voice. "Your Majesty's ministers and concubines are afraid..."

"What are you afraid of?" Shui Lan asked puzzled.

"I'm afraid that someone with a heart will push the cause of this year's erratic climate to His Majesty, and to the two-month-old baby dragon and phoenix."

Shui Lan was taken aback when she heard that, and said uncertainly for a long time. "Probably not."

"Isn't that the case in the reg dynasty? Once a major disaster occurs, some culprits will always be found. It just so happens that His Majesty ascended the throne this year, and our emperor and daughter were also born this year..."

Shui Lan's heart tightened suddenly at Wu Tingfang's words, but she said it calmly. "What are you thinking? Even if there is a real disaster, it is impossible for me to shift the responsibility to the princes. Isn't this ruining the princes?" How to succeed.Although Shui Lan didn't pay much attention to these things, she also raised her vigilance because of Wu Tingfang's words. She was afraid that the women in the harem would have such thoughts because they had children. If this was the case, Shui Lan would consider strangling them to death with her own hands.

"But it's almost spring, what kind of disaster can happen, it won't be a vigorous hailstorm."

Shui Lan thoughtfully pushed open the closed window, and looked at the dark sky, but her eyes widened in vain.Nima, these white ice cubes, large or small, falling from the sky are not hailstones.

Shui Lan directly hit the wall with her head in her arms, tears streaming down her face instantly.As soon as Nima said there was hail, it really did.He really wanted to strangle himself to death! ! !
