Ci Jinzhi

Chapter 370: Jin Shulai

The official asked a heart-wrenching question.

"It's hard to tell Yong'an Bo. He Qingxiao and Xin You have a special relationship, so they will definitely not let this trick go."

 “This is even more troublesome.” One official muttered.

The Minister of Rites took a sip of tea without saying a word.

Just as these people guessed, He Qingxiao went all the way south. When he arrived at the place where the New Deal was being tried out, the first thing he did was to arrange for people to set up a stage. The second thing was to find many beggars and compile a straightforward and easy-to-understand summary of the benefits of the New Deal. Lotus Falls taught them how to sing.

 Soon, the spacious streets were filled with lively dramas, and lotus flowers about the New Deal could be heard everywhere in the streets and alleys.

By the time we start measuring the fields, even the youngest children will be able to sing a few lines of "The new policy is good, the new policy is wonderful."

 Poor people all understand the benefits of the New Deal and begin to look forward to its implementation.

Of course the wealthy officials, gentry and wealthy households were not willing to give in. Officials were afraid of openly opposing the government, while wealthy households obstructed them in various ways, both covertly and overtly.

He Qingxiao has only one attitude towards this, which is to be tough.

 Not afraid of being scolded, not afraid of killing people.

After a few waves of wealthy households who were particularly opposed were arrested or killed, and some officials who violated the law were also thrown into prison by him who had the power to "behead first and report later", the implementation of the New Deal became much smoother.

He Qingxiao wrote letters, including a secret report to Emperor Xingyuan and a letter to Xin You.

Secret reports should be concise and concise. The key is to explain the most important things clearly. He Qingxiao is very familiar with how to write secret reports.

When I write to Xinyou, I should write about how to implement the New Deal, how popular the opera is, how the lotus flowers are singing and falling all over the city...think about it, and the scenery along the way should also be written.

 Unknowingly, he finished writing what he wanted to write, and He Qingxiao completed "a book"...

Hold up a thick stack of letter paper and think about it for a while, but he was reluctant to delete certain parts. The letter, which was as thick as a book, was finally delivered to Xin You.

 At this time, it was already the middle of the twelfth lunar month, the water was dripping and turning into ice outside, and the cold wind was howling. Xin You nestled in the warm room, opened the envelope and looked at it slowly.

Xiao Lian brought the red dates and longan tea, and when she saw the letter in Xin You's hand, she was pleasantly surprised: "Hey, miss, have you written a Newspeak book?"

Xin You looked down at the thick pile and couldn't help but smile: "Yeah."

 “Can the maid take a look first?” Xiaolian couldn’t help but come over.

Xin You covered the letter and said seriously: "It's a waste manuscript, it's still a waste manuscript."

 These words will not scare Xiao Lian away.

Then "Painted Skin" and "Journey to the West" are so good. The story written by the girl is still good even if it is a scrap.

"Girl, let me have a look at it. It's okay to scrap the manuscript. Let me have a good time first."

Xin You felt quite regretful about shooting himself in the foot, and refused seriously: "No, I am used to reading it to others after I have finished writing. Well, my hands are a bit cold, Xiaolian, go and get a hand stove."

"Hey." Xiao Lian responded hurriedly. When she turned to leave, she caught sight of a corner of the envelope under the scroll. Although she didn't react for a moment, she felt something was strange.

After leaving the back room, the little maid paused and thought about it: I received a letter from Mr. He today. The thick stack of paper was not a scrap manuscript. It was clearly a letter written by Mr. He to the girl!

Thinking that she was still begging the girl to see it, Xiaolian patted her forehead in embarrassment, and then became speechless.

Mr. He looks at such a cold and dignified person, why does he write a letter as if he is writing a book?

That's all, the girl still coaxed her - Xiaolian had a sudden idea and covered her mouth in surprise.

 The girl was obviously embarrassed to coax her. But the girl is such an open and generous person, what is there to be embarrassed about?

 The case has been solved: The girl likes Mr. He!

Having caught a glimpse of Xin You's thoughts, Xiao Lian's heart was beating so fast that she could hardly walk.

 Not for anything else, one is to be excited about my own sensitivity, and the other is to be happy for Xinyou. In Xiaolian’s eyes, Miss Ayou is an omnipotent deity. But he was too powerful and too rational, which often gave her the illusion that she was carefree and could disappear at any time.

Now, after realizing Xinyou's intentions, Xiaolian feels at ease inexplicably.

Xin You sent Xiao Lian to get the hand stove as an excuse, and because she was afraid that Xiao Lian would come back and see her reading the letter and make a fuss about reading it, so she folded the letter, opened a book and waited.

 At this point, we found that it took longer than expected.

Xiao Lian is always neat and tidy in doing things. What happened today?

 “Girl, hand stove.”

Finally, when Xiaolian arrived, Xinyou took the hand stove and said, "You should have a rest, and I will think about how to change the story."

“Yes, girl, think about it slowly and call your maid if you need anything.” Xiao Lian pursed her lips and smiled and went out.

Xin You then calmly read He Qingxiao’s letter.

I have to say, it’s good to have rich content. After reading the letter, even though I didn’t see it with my own eyes, I felt like I had experienced everything in the south, which gave Xin You a lot to say in her reply.

As soon as he started to reply, someone came from the palace and told Xinyou to enter the palace.

No one in Beijing has asked her for trouble recently, and Xin You couldn't help but wonder why Emperor Xingyuan suddenly summoned her.

"Ayou is here, isn't it cold outside?" Emperor Xingyuan waited for Xinyou to salute, then asked with a smile, in the same tone as an ordinary father talking to his daughter.

 “I was in the car all the way, so it was okay.”

Emperor Xingyuan chatted for a while and then said: "There is a letter from the south. The new policy has started smoothly."

 Having a good beginning will make things easier later on.

"That's good." Xin You guessed that it was the secret report sent back by He Qingxiao, but pretended to know nothing about it.

Emperor Xingyuan briefly talked about the situation in the south, but the more specific letter did not mention it, so he could not share it with his daughter. He smiled and said: "It can be so smooth because of your contribution, Ayou."

 When he heard about those big dramas for the first time, shock could not be an exaggeration to describe his mood at that time.

  Why do you have so many novel and useful ideas? Just like her mother——

 In the past, Emperor Xingyuan only felt uncomfortable when he thought of Queen Xin. Thinking about it now, in addition to regrets and regrets, I feel a bit more proud.

At this time Sun Yan came in and presented a copy of the memorial to Emperor Xingyuan.

Emperor Xingyuan did not avoid Xin You. He opened the memorial and read it, then slapped the memorial on the case.

Xin You glanced at the memorial that was thrown on the table and said nothing.

Emperor Xingyuan scolded again: "These bastards!"

Xinyou still said nothing.

Emperor Xingyuan couldn't hold it anymore and took the initiative: "A memorial came from the north, saying that nearly a thousand people blocked the yamen gate to protest against the new policy. So far, only a small amount of land has been measured, but it is difficult to carry out..." After speaking, he continued: "Send the ministers to come. Discussion.”

When the Minister of Rites and others hurried over, when they saw Xin You in the palace, their initial difficulty in accepting it turned into numbness.

It doesn’t matter if you are not numb. Didn’t you see that the emperor’s face is very dark? He is obviously in a very bad mood. If he says anything at this time, he will probably be taken away by the imperial edict.

Emperor Xingyuan and others all arrived. They took pictures of the memorial and talked about the situation in the north.
