Madam is a Superstar

"cough."

Song Qing coughed lightly again. Although the court should have taken care of this matter, he felt guilty for saying such a thing from his own mouth.

“This time the persimmons cannot be sold, the people will not blindly follow the trend again after learning the lesson.

If we charge a high price, people will be more likely to take chances, so we can only charge a low price.

It is unlikely that the people will really rot the persimmons in their hands. As for the border area, which was not affected by this storm, the persimmons can withstand it.

It won't hurt to send it from Kyoto. Although it can't satisfy hunger, it can be used as snacks by the soldiers to... satisfy their greed. "

After saying this, Song Qing didn't have the slightest confidence, and didn't even dare to look into Nangong Yu's eyes.

In fact, this method is not a good one, and its persuasive power is weak.

really,

The little old woman often despises her for what she says. She is good for nothing except fortune telling.

When I returned to Dayuan, I only had to calculate the fortune of the country, and even the only saving grace of fortune telling was gone. It was great, but it was even more useless.

"This method works, and it coincides with what I thought."

Looking at the baby growing up little by little, how could Nangong Yu not see the reason for the annoyance and frustration of the person in front of him?

With the palm of his broad, dry palm facing upward, he placed it against the woman's chin and lifted up her beautiful and hot face.

His wife doesn't need to be downcast because of this little thing.

"real?"

Song Qing was very suspicious. Her unreasonable idea coincided with Nangong Yu's idea...?

It's not that she looks at Nangong Yu through the filter of love, but that this man is truly excellent in all aspects.

Regardless of whether they are favored or not, the princes and princesses of the Dayuan royal family will be sent to the Imperial Academy to be taught by specialized masters.

Music, chess, calligraphy, painting, horseback riding, archery, etc. The only difference is that the princess does not need to know the skills of the emperor.

This is the ancestral precept left by the founding emperor of Dayuan. So far, I have never heard of any Dayuan emperor having any objections to this.

One is respecting the ancestors, and the other is that the prince and princess represent the face of the Nangong royal family. No one thinks there is anything wrong with being a member of the same royal family.

so,

Princes and princesses, children of aristocratic families, and ordinary people may have similar innate IQs.

But after a series of careful training the day after tomorrow, the difference is really not just a tiny bit.

As for her,

She was trained by her master as a new priest since she was a child. Logically speaking, she should be good at it, but she is lazy by nature.

The little cleverness I had when I was young was used on how to make myself enjoy my life more, so now I am somewhat "big smart".

"Whenever I lied to Qingqing, of course it was true."

"Let's do this as Qingqing said, but Shangguan Yao doesn't have anything or anything to say. Do you want them to take it with you?"

Regarding the first sentence, Nangong Yu said it calmly and calmly without changing his expression, as if the dragnet was not woven by him himself.

"Of course."

Song Qing twitched her red lips and murmured in her heart whether the prince or princess still had the compulsory course of being thick-skinned.

But he didn't realize that with such an interruption, the uncomfortable emotion lingering in his heart quietly dissipated without a trace.

,

Before noon,

The news that the imperial court purchased persimmon cakes in large quantities blew like a gust of wind around the entire Kyoto city, and the people talked about it with great interest.

"This price is too low. It's lower than in previous years. It's enough to earn back some hard-earned money. Why is the court so picky?"

"Yes, yes, think about last year's price. This is less than half of last year's price."

"Hey, you said that the emperor raided those corrupt officials some time ago, and the gold, silver and jewelry were moved out in boxes. The treasury should be filled, this, this... sigh!"

There is a comparison with last year's Nanzhuang teahouse where the prices were raised for commercial interests.

It is normal for the common people to complain about the huge gap in their hearts. However, after hearing these comments, several soldiers who came to post the imperial list

His face suddenly darkened, and he told them in front of them that the emperor had said something about the court. This was because their ears were broken and they were deaf.

He raised his eyebrows and was about to scold a group of people who were complaining, when he heard a different voice.

"Let's just be content. It's better to earn back our hard-earned money than to leave it at home where it spoils and cannot be eaten.

The court took the money and we could spend the winter in peace. My mother-in-law and I were so worried that we couldn't sleep all night long because of this matter.

I'll go back later and pack the cars at home for the court to collect, so I can have a good night's sleep tonight. "

"That's not what you're saying. If the imperial court doesn't take over my family, I'm going to have to live off the northwest wind this winter.

My wife is quarreling with me at home every day because of this matter, which makes me not even want to go home, not to mention how bad it is.

I don’t even think about who it was who persuaded me to cut down all the small fruit trees outside the city and plant persimmon trees last year. It was so unreasonable and it really pissed me off. "

"Brother, I am also a fallen person from Tianya. I also saw that the price of persimmons was high last year, so I uprooted all the vegetable gardens I had and planted persimmon trees.

I originally thought about how I could make another fortune this year, but I didn't know that the fresh energy would pass so quickly. I really regretted it until my intestines turned green. "

"Who is not? If you ask me, I still blame the damn scene in Nanzhuang Teahouse..."

Sounds like this continued one after another. Although there were still complaints, they were not as harsh as before.

The faces of the few soldiers who were about to explode looked much better now, and they did not speak immediately.

Instead, he waited until these people had finished talking, then cleared his throat and said in a loud voice,

"The price given by the imperial court is a bit low, but you are not forced to make these old persimmons by the imperial court.

Next, the emperor allocated a large amount of military pay and food to the border to feed and clothe the soldiers guarding the border.

Next, we have to forge a large number of new weapons, none of which require the use of silver. You all know the purpose of these,

Without the border, those soldiers guarding the border would not have the stable life we ​​have now. "

After this sonorous speech, the people didn't say anything anymore, and the complaints in their hearts became smaller.

It's true that they want to make more money, but what the official said is also reasonable. It is true that the court did not force them to make persimmon cakes.

The soldier who spoke was the leader among several soldiers. He was tall and tall, with a beard, and he looked almighty and upright.

Seeing the people like this, the last bit of anger in their chests has disappeared, so I couldn't help but say a few more words,

"Furthermore, if you think about how the money from the national treasury has been used in the past few years, I won't mention anything else.

Let's just say that in the past two years, there were floods in the south of the Yangtze River and there was a drought and no rain here. Which time did the court fall? "

"Don't think that the court can't see or hear. You privately say that the court's methods are cruel when dealing with corrupt officials.

Have you forgotten when those corrupt officials formed a clique to line their own pockets and squeeze you? You are still at the feet of the Emperor, they dare not be too presumptuous,

Think about how much the people who are far away from our city of Kyoto have to suffer because of traitors and corrupt officials like them! "
