Chapter 381 The girl and the emperor
"The north has fallen for so long, and the work of measuring land and counting the population is heavy and time-consuming. Do we have so many people doing these things?"
"The legacy of land enclosure in the Qing Dynasty and the resettlement of fugitives returning to their hometowns, the roads along the way must be investigated to prevent traitors from traitors from getting away with them."
"Although the war is over, military discipline and laws cannot be abandoned. Things that deceive the people and abuse the people, kill good people and make achievements will never be allowed in the Northern Expedition Army."
"Beijing was changed to Peking. Yan Yingyuan guarded Beiping. What he wanted was not to defend Liaodong, but to take advantage of his illness to kill him and not to give Tatars and Wu Sangui a chance to breathe."
When Hou Xuanyan arrived in Jinling, he had never heard of it. The officials who were greeting along the way nodded while listening and quickly secretly wrote down Duke Yue's instructions in his heart.
The Northern Expedition of the military generals was successful, and their "Northern Expedition" had just begun. The destruction of the northern provinces did not start from the Qing Dynasty, but from the Chongzhen period. It was difficult to restore the people's livelihood in the north.
When Hou Xuanyan thought of the heavy and clueless trivial matters, he felt a little overwhelmed. These things were enough for him to be busy for a while, and probably he wouldn't even be so exhausted in fighting.
Looking at these civil and military officials, they nodded and said yes along the way, and they had no idea, and they would definitely not be able to count on them at critical moments.
Thinking of this, Hou Xuanyan felt a little angry and said with a cold face: "These things are imminent. After I return to the court to meet His Majesty, we will gather in Wenyuan Pavilion and come up with a few plans."
In fact, he was a little wronged by these officials. All the officials of the court did not take the lead completely by flattering. Even if they were like Ma Shiying, they still had real talent and knowledge. However, they asked questions in a hurry, and they were all major issues in the state. These ministers could not answer casually, as they seemed too disrespectful.
Hou Xuanyan, who had not figured it out, came to Kunning Palace with a stinky face. Now the one-year-old emperor has learned the simple pronunciation of babbling, and her noise is everywhere in the hall.
Hou Xuanyan had become accustomed to entering the palace and stepped into Kunning Palace. A palace maid had already taken him to the bedroom.
The entire Kunning Palace was only accessible by these eleven women. The original twelve people also had a small traitor, and everyone was even more careful. Now, everyone is accomplices of this matter, and everyone wants to try their best to hide this shocking secret.
In the open-air courtyard outside the bedroom, Zhu Linhao was learning to walk, and from time to time there were crisp and beautiful girl voices, clapping her hands and slapping her hands next to her.
After Hou Xuan came in, he happened to see the little emperor walking happily with the railings on both sides. His calves were chubby and he walked swayingly, just like playing drunken fist.
Emperor Longwu Zhu Youjian and Concubine Chen are both restrained people, but their flesh and blood are indeed very lively and active.
There were thick carpets under the railings, and there were two palace maids who were ready to reach out at any time behind him. In the distance was a girl in white with an extremely slender body.
The girl has fair and moist skin, wearing a snow-white home swallow suit, a moon-white ribbon tied with a waist, and even her satin boots are pearl-white. Even so, the skin exposed a few inches is still the whitest, and the dazzling snow-whiteness in the sun.
When the girl saw Hou Xuanyan coming in, she opened her mouth slightly and exclaimed: "Oh, why is the master back?"
Hou Xuanyan curled his lips and waved his hand. After the spiritual medicine jumped over with his hands behind his back, he slapped her on the butt and scolded: "Don't do this, don't you know where I am? Now all the big and small things outside the palace can't escape your ears."
His slap was quite strong, and his body was so soft that he looked at him with water. This girl who dripped wax on her jade hands had a different feeling of pain. Hou Xuanyan took out a string of crystal clear pearl necklaces from her arms, which were round and full. Hou Xuanyan hung it on her fair and beautiful neck with his own hands, complementing each other.
Lingyao smiled sweetly: "Thank you, lord."
Lingyao then smiled cutely. Wang Xiangnian, the eunuch in the palace, now only her will. There is indeed no news inside and outside the palace that she cannot inquire about. Hou Xuanyan knows this, of course, this is within Lingyao's expectations. If she does not believe it, she will definitely not believe it.
However, he did not receive any questions from Hou Xuanyan from beginning to end. He knew that Hou Xuanyan had acquiesced to her behavior, so he let go even more. Hou Xuanyan was also happy that someone would share his worries and solve his problems, so he would not have time to stop something in the palace. Just like the last time, he made himself in a hurry, and he still left time bombs.
Zhu Linhao next to him was walking, but when he saw this scene, he quietly came over and raised his hand to hit Lingyao's butt. Who knew that he was too short and fell on the blanket.
Lingyao reached out to pick her up in her arms, her pretty face flushed, she rolled her eyes, and said angrily: "Look at your master, you have ruined His Majesty."
Hou Xuanyan laughed loudly, reached out to take the little emperor, and scared her with a grin.
The little emperor grinned and laughed happily. Hou Xuanyan said, "His Majesty, our Emperor, was he scared when he was just born? Other children cry every day at this age, so how could they laugh when they reach her?"
Lingyao bowed his hands obediently and said, "This is your Majesty's closeness to the master. I know you are her benefactor. Master, please come to the palace to see her more often."
Hou Xuanyan sighed and said with a sad face: "Where is I free? Major events in the court have been accumulated for so long. Just waiting for the refugees to return to their hometowns and check the population and count them, I have made me feel overwhelmed."
Lingyao tilted his head and asked, "Why should we wait for them to return to their hometown to investigate?"
Hou Xuanyan sat on the chair next to him, holding the little emperor high, and said, "What do you know? What's the point of not returning to the hometown to check? I still have to plan the land according to the population."
Lingyao pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Now the officials in the north are not complete. It is better to ask the local officials in the south to check the people from the foreign lands who have fled, find out their hometowns, issue road guides, and send people to send them back to their hometowns. First, save time and effort, and second, it can also prevent those traitors from sneaking into the refugees returning to their hometowns and escape punishment. What we need to do is to send more soldiers to send people back to their hometowns, so that they can avoid being exploited and hurt by evil people on the way back to their hometowns. There are many bandits now. Besides, there are inevitably some evil among the refugees. No one on the road saw the deep mountains. What should they do if they harm people?"
As Hou Xuanyan listened, his eyes lit up and he said, "Wow, why didn't I think of it? This idea is good. I'll give you a little credit."
