When it comes to being an emperor, Zuo Mengeng has always been relatively easy-going.
Not much to eat, not much to use, not much to spend.
Not much to say.
Overall, people generally thought that the emperor was very good.
But when the emperor began to implement his will forcefully, people suddenly discovered that the dragon was the dragon.
No matter how many complaints there were, no matter how much resistance there was, the return of farmland to lakes was carried out forcefully.
Some people were crying and howling, desperately blocking their "own land" and not allowing the government to take it back.
Then what they harvested was an overwhelming barrage of bullets.
The emperor really knows how to kill people.
When the bleeding really started, people despaired.
He watched with grief and anger as the land he had worked so hard to cultivate for generations was submerged in the water again.
Another reflection of the emperor's endless will is that in addition to Dongting Lake, Poyang Lake, Taihu Lake, Hongze Lake and other lakes designated by the emperor, all parts of the country are returning farmland to lakes.
This incident destroyed the good reputation that the emperor had accumulated for more than ten years.
People always curse after dinner...
Dog Emperor.
As a result, this dog emperor got even worse.
As a place where people have lived for generations, Dajiang has also been given unreasonable and strict orders.
Many fish are not allowed to be caught, including pig dragons.
That Pig Po Dragon is a coward, he can't even defeat a goose, so what's the point to care about?
The emperor did not listen to people's complaints, and such orders were even finalized in the form of legislation.
When a few bold fools killed three pig dragons and were executed, people quickly realized the seriousness of the problem.
So the scolding of the emperor became even worse.
In the pouring rain in early spring, people stayed at home while eating and cursing the emperor. This is the most common phenomenon in this season.
No one noticed that during heavy rains like this in previous years, the rivers that burst their banks were safe and sound, the festering lakes were calm, and the mighty rivers still rushed to the sea according to their own rhythm, no longer harassing the people along the coast.
In the end, Zuo Mengeng did not leave any well-known masterpieces in Yueyang Tower.
Fan Zhongyan wrote about this building to the top, and if anyone else writes about it again, they will only bring humiliation to themselves.
Only that guy named Hongli would be shameless, Zuo Mengeng didn't want to be laughed at by future generations.
On this day, the stone pillars ushered in unprecedented excitement.
Large numbers of soldiers and horses came to take over the defense of every inch of land here.
People turn a blind eye to such disturbances and are not afraid.
Because these soldiers have the strictest military discipline, as long as they do a good job in security, they will not take a second look at the bacon hanging under the eaves of ordinary people's houses.
On this day, the people of Shizhu put on their best clothes, crowded on both sides of the road, and stretched their necks in eager anticipation.
Qin Liangyu put on all the gorgeous clothes that he had treasured for decades, with a happy smile on his wrinkled face.
A stone pillar in a remote rural area can actually welcome the emperor. It will definitely be different in the future.
Zuo Mengeng has arrived.
Came on horseback.
This move alone completely convinced the people of Shizhu.
"You are the elder, just sit at home and wait for the younger generation to come and visit."
Zuo Mengeng jumped off his horse, stopped Qin Liangyu and the others from saluting, and personally supported this glorious old man, speaking casually.
Qin Liangyu's eyes were kind, maybe he saw the shadow of his elder brother or younger brother in him.
"I have been looking forward to Your Majesty, and I can't wait any longer."
"Hahaha, I didn't disappoint you, did I?"
Qin Liangyu has met many emperors.
She has seen Wanli, Tianqi, and Chongzhen.
Never seen it either.
They were obviously face to face, but the distance was too far, so they couldn't see clearly.
Only the emperor in front of her was real, and she could feel the blazing flames from the arm supporting her.
Qin Liangyu completely forgot that he was old, and every part of his body was full of strength.
She personally made Malba dregs, head bowl and welcome tea for Zuo Menggen.
Zuo Mengeng ate not a drop, making all the Tujia people burst into laughter.
"Half of the people have been relocated, and everyone has been allocated more fields. As long as we cultivate well, we will definitely not die of hunger."
Speaking of the changes in the stone pillars, Qin Liangyu was filled with emotion.
Shizhu has been loyal to the country for decades, and only recently has he felt the benefits from the country.
Zuo Mengeng was not satisfied and pointed to the bacon hanging on the eaves of each house.
"You will be satisfied only when the bacon hanging is full."
Qin Liangyu looked at the sparse bacon in the breeze, his eyes couldn't help but longing.
"Shizhu is poor, I'm afraid I will live up to His Majesty's high expectations."
Zuo Mengeng never speaks in vain.
"If poor places want to become rich, there are not many ways, but they are not impossible. One is to go out, and the other is to integrate with the local area. The stone pillars have no output, but there are beautiful scenery and special ethnic customs here.
.In the future, there will be more and more rich people, and they will definitely like this."
Qin Liangyu let out a long sigh.
"The mountains here are high and the roads are far away, and the roads are difficult to navigate. Rich people can't get through here."
Zuo Mengeng is full of momentum.
"Build roads when there are no roads. Foolish Old Man can move mountains, and we are no worse than him."
The emperor's will was reflected again, which made the Tujia people feel excited.
Zuo Mengeng pointed at the Yangtze River.
"This river must be unobstructed, and ships must be able to sail to the stone pillars."
Qin Liangyu couldn't help but stand up.
"The reefs in the middle of the river are rugged and stretch for hundreds of miles. This is the blessing that God prevents Sichuan and Shu from accepting from the Central Plains!"
Zuo Mengeng watched the countless people on the other side of the river heading towards the river under the leadership of the soldiers, and their momentum reached its peak.
"The hearts of the people are greater than heaven."
Zuo Menggeng was not able to fulfill his husband's ambition to build a dam on this wide river to generate electricity, but there was one thing he could do.
That is to order the Ministry of Engineering, the Ministry of Water Resources and the National Defense Force to blow up all the rocks in the river.
For this purpose, the Engineering Department prepared a million kilograms of explosives.
When the rapids and rapids of the Three Gorges can be turned into a thoroughfare, the Land of Abundance will naturally come alive.
"Your Majesty, we Shizhu people are the most hard-working, please help us."
Qin Liangyu seemed to have seen countless white sails shuttle back and forth on the river, and then docked at the prosperous stone pillar pier.
"This kind of project is very dangerous."
"For the sake of future generations, they can afford it."
At Qin Liangyu's call, Shizhu people happily took their tools and joined the team to dredge the river.
Seeing the future of Shizhu, Qin Liangyu has no regrets.
She smiled and closed her eyes.
Zuo Menggeng decreed that Qin Liangyu should be granted the title of Prince Qing.
Right on the bank of the mighty river, the Qingwang Temple was built by imperial decree and has been enjoyed for generations.
With her heroic spirit waiting by her side, this barren land and its people will surely move towards a happy future.
