Xiao Nan quickly puffed out his chest, showing a brave and resolute look.
Qin Yu agreed: "Yes, thanks to His Highness following me on this trip, I was able to solve a lot of trouble. Moreover, Your Highness already knows a lot about military affairs."
Hear this.
Emperor Wei's eyes brightened, he looked at Xiao Nan and asked, "Prince, what insights did you have from this trip to Qingzhou?"
Xiao Nan hurriedly explained, "Many things are much more complicated than I imagined. King Qi dared to send people to assassinate us, which shows that he does not intend to make peace with his father. Although Miao Xiangyang stands by the court, King Qi may
There will be some action, and my father needs to prepare early."
"Then there is the issue of food and salary for the soldiers of the three armies. The soldiers sacrificed their lives to protect the Wei Dynasty, but the pension after the soldiers died was only two taels of silver and two pieces of cloth. This is simply unreasonable. After the soldiers died, their family's
What should we do with the elderly and children who are alone? How can we live with only two taels of silver?"
"Why do the soldiers of Qingzhou have their hearts set on Governor Miao? Governor Miao will give pensions to the families of the fallen soldiers every year, two cans of money every year until the elders in the family pass away or the children reach the age of thirteen and can work."
"Father, think about it, Governor Miao has solved so many worries for the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army. Can they not follow Governor Miao wholeheartedly?"
Listen to the two things Xiao Nan said.
Xiao Rou and Emperor Wei both looked shocked.
They really didn't expect that Xiao Nan's cognition would improve so much after going out this time.
The two things analyzed by Xiao Nan are well-founded and convincing.
Qin Yu nodded happily, the prince was growing up slowly.
Emperor Wei looked at Xiao Nan, took a deep breath, his face was full of pride and joy, "Good! Very good! Quite good! Nan'er, you can see these two things so thoroughly! I don't know how much I have in my heart.
Happy!"
"You are right, King Qi will never give up. I have also sent people to pay attention to the movements of Pingzhou and Dongzhou, but he has not made any moves yet!"
"As for the pension you mentioned, I am the Immediate Emperor and have followed the soldiers of the three armies on the bloody battlefield. How can I not know the suffering of the three armies? But you only saw the surface of this matter and did not see the actual situation.
fundamental."
As he said that, he turned to look at Xiao Rou and said in a deep voice: "Rouer, please explain this matter. I will test your ability."
Hear this.
Xiao Nan and Qin Yu both looked at Xiao Rou.
Xiao Rou frowned slightly, and then said slowly: "First, the national treasury is empty. The annual fiscal revenue is not enough to cover the budgets of the three provinces and six ministries. There is indeed no extra money to increase military pay and pensions for the soldiers."
"Second, and the most critical point, even if we allocate pension funds, whether it can reach the hands of the soldiers' relatives is a big problem. Although my father has been on the throne for two years, the political corruption and abuses continued by the previous dynasty are still serious."
"This is not something we can solve with drastic measures now. We must first eliminate treacherous officials like Fan Junliang before we can proceed to the next step. Otherwise, this pension may harm the lives of the soldiers' relatives, and the gain is not worth the loss."
"So the problems mentioned by the prince do exist, but the prerequisite is that the problem of empty treasury and political abuses need to be solved. County magistrates are all county magistrates, and they have great power in the local area."
Emperor Wei nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, what Rou'er said is very reasonable, so Nan'er, what you see is only the superficial phenomenon. The problem does exist, and there are solutions, but it is not just about solving your problem.
The hair moves the whole body."
As he said that, he sighed, "Oh...so you know how difficult it is for me, right? I know the problems, but I can't solve them. This is my biggest pain. Who doesn't feel sorry for the soldiers of the three armies, and I won't either."
I don’t feel bad, but...but I really can’t help it!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Wei's face became filled with sadness again.
Qin Yu couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this. He didn't expect that it would be really difficult for him to be his father-in-law.
Xiao Nan also nodded silently. He finally understood now that even though he understood it, he still did not understand the essence of the problem.
Immediately afterwards.
Emperor Wei smiled again and regained his confidence, "You don't have to be so pessimistic. Since Qin Yu came, hasn't it gotten better? Money has been made, traitors are also being dealt with, and Qingzhou has returned. I am very happy now.
Faith, you must also have faith.”
This is also the reason why Emperor Wei valued Qin Yu so much.
It was originally a mess, but now it was finally filtered out by Qin Yu.
Having said this, the heavy moods of several people have eased a little.
There was a pause.
Emperor Wei looked at Qin Yu and said with a smile: "Qin Yu, you tell me this time. As long as I can do it, I will promise you. Of course, I must have no money, so I don't have to ask for money."
Qin Yu: "......"
Emperor Wei was still as stingy as ever.
No wonder I rewarded Xiao Nan with one hundred taels of silver, which made him feel so distressed that he was half dead.
Qin Yu thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, if this is not the case, the three sisters of Xuanmen, please don't go back and follow me from now on. It will be convenient for me to use it."
"ah?"
Emperor Wei was stunned and frowned, "Didn't we agree on the secondment at the beginning? They are my capable subordinates."
Emperor Wei said with some reluctance.
But Qin Yu had a look of disdain on his face, he didn't even pay his wages to others, he was an evil capitalist.
But it was definitely not a dead end at the time.
Qin Yu only said that he needed someone to deal with the Cha Fan Mansion, and there was nothing he could do if Emperor Wei transferred the person away afterwards.
But Qin Yu thought about it and realized that he still needed such an organization. He would not have to take care of many things personally in the future.
The key is that Shen Binglan recognized the strength of the three of them.
It is not easy to get Shen Binglan's approval.
"Your Majesty, it's meaningless for you to say that. If they can't do it, I won't ask you for it. Besides, you can also benefit from what they do."
Qin Yu looked at Emperor Wei and spoke slowly.
After thinking for a long time, he still felt that it was appropriate to bring the three Xuanmen sisters.
Emperor Wei thought about it and gritted his teeth, "Hey~ OK, the contribution you made this time is indeed not small. I will let the three of them follow you. This is your boy. If it were anyone else, I would never do it."
promise."
Qin Yu could tell that Emperor Wei was indeed very distressed.
The three Xuanmen siblings are indeed very capable, otherwise they would not be so valued by Emperor Wei.
Immediately afterwards.
Qin Yu continued: "Your Majesty, I have another important matter to discuss with you, regarding the Fan family."
Hear this.
Emperor Wei raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Rou and Xiao Nan also widened their eyes.
They are still very interested in dealing with the Fan family.
Fan Junliang was a major scourge for the political abuses of the Wei Dynasty.
