Chapter 656 The second plan to return to the court
Get the 1st time
at this time.
The refugees who were kneeling on the ground all raised their heads and looked at Xia Tian expectantly!
They have experienced the pain of family destruction and death, and have gone through a life of exile, and the pain in their hearts cannot be contained even by the ocean!
Even if they appear in front of the emperor, they still feel that the future is uncertain, and the shadow of death has been lingering in their hearts!
Until before, they knew Xia Tian's identity!
They knew that this handsome young man in royal robes was the legendary King of Huangzhou and was their last hope!
"My lord, help me!"
Liu Zhi, a refugee, said with a miserable look on his face: "The weather is getting colder and colder. Countless refugees have frozen to death on the streets. We are about to do it too!"
"In order to survive, some refugees turned into thieves and robbers, and did some wrong things in the imperial capital, which made the wealthy families in the imperial capital unwilling to help us anymore!"
"Yes, those homeless people who do evil should be punished!"
"But what about us honest refugees?" Remember it in one second
"You won't let us live either?"
"Woooooooo..."
The refugees cried together, their voices full of misery!
In November of the 20th year of Kaiyuan in the Great Xia Dynasty, the temperature dropped sharply. Wearing two clothes could no longer resist the cold. Many people in the imperial capital had already put on cotton-padded jackets!
However, the refugees kneeling on the ground were still wearing dirty and patched single clothes, and they were shivering from the cold!
Xia Tian has already thought about it: "Father, according to what I see, there are more and more refugees in the imperial capital. If this matter cannot be solved, chaos will occur in the imperial capital and the world will also be in chaos!"
Emperor Xia was convinced!
After a natural disaster, it must be a man-made disaster!
He also knew that there were more and more refugees in the Imperial Capital, and he also knew that every morning, more and more corpses were collected by the Imperial Capital patrol camp.
Now, the refugees in the imperial capital are like dry firewood. As long as a fire ignites them, the refugees dare to burn down the entire empire in order to survive!
The issue of refugees is indeed worrying!
Although, in the 20 years since the founding of Daxia, countless refugees have flowed into the imperial capital every winter, and every winter morning, countless corpses of refugees have been carried out, which has made Emperor Xia and the courtiers accustomed to it!
Although, most of the refugees in the Daxia Empire were taken in by Huangzhou.
However, the number of refugees flowing into the imperial capital this year has also increased many times compared with previous years!
Now, there is no money or food in the imperial treasury, and even Emperor Xia feels powerless!
Not to mention the six departments of the imperial court, everyone felt that it was difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw!
So helpless!
Emperor Xia said solemnly: "Xiaojiu, tell me your solution!"
The deposed prince Xia Bao regained his composure at this time and murmured: "The refugee problem has never been solved in all dynasties. I don't believe you can solve it!"
Xia Tian raised his eyelids: "You have been crippled!"
"Gu is not what you call yourself!"
The Wasted Prince: "..."
Xia Xia then said: "Father, I think that the imperial capital is rich and there are many mansions with surplus food. The imperial court can register the refugees in a unified register and assign them to each wealthy mansion, so that every family in the imperial capital can show love and work together." To resist this famine, we also allow the refugees to have a house to live in, clothing to wear, food to feed them, and a way to survive!"
As soon as this statement came out.
The refugees were overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Your Majesty, for surviving!"
Sure enough, the Holy King’s wisdom is boundless!
The corner of Xia Tian's mouth raised a hint of meaning: "Father, after the refugees have passed through the most difficult winter, the imperial court will go to each house to count people by name and send them back to their original place of origin for spring plowing!"
"Then, we will reward the wealthy households in the imperial capital according to their merits!"
"If the mansion that takes in the refugees this time ensures that none of the refugees are lacking or disabled, the imperial court will give them a plaque of the House of Good Deeds!"
"However, if a person enters his house properly, but the person comes out disabled, or the person disappears, it means that the person who entered his house has little luck, and he must be carefully investigated to understand the situation clearly, and he cannot be allowed to be taken in. If their mansion is criticized, the good intentions of the people who took them in will not be rewarded."
As soon as these words came out, the smarter refugees looked surprised!
Their cold hearts seemed to be hit by a warm current!
The King of Huangzhou was afraid that they would die inexplicably after entering the mansions of various aristocratic families, sects, and powerful men in the imperial capital!
Sure enough, it is better to meet than to be famous!
Wang Renyi of Huangzhou!
As soon as this method comes out.
Emperor Xia was a little shocked!
He took a deep look at Xia Tian, his eyes flashed, and he wanted to shout "Hello!"
This guy's brain is really good!
And so cruel!
interesting!
He can just wait for the outcome of this matter!
At this time, in front of the East Palace Gate, all the courtiers were shocked!
King Huangzhou’s idea is simply too terrible!
Does this allow them to take in refugees?
This allows them to treat these refugees as their ancestors!
Moreover, how many refugees are there in the imperial capital?
who knows?
Once the imperial court adopts King Huangzhou's suggestion, it is estimated that there will not be many refugees entering the various prefectures at first, because there are too many rich people's mansions in the imperial capital, and each prefecture will probably be divided among them!
However, as long as this news spreads, it is estimated that the refugees will not go to the far-off state, and they will not go to the rumored barren state with poverty and desolate mountains and rivers!
They will come to the imperial capital like a pilgrim!
By that time, there will be more than hundreds or even thousands of people to be collected in the mansions of the rich in the imperial capital.
Those who can hang out in the Central Court of Daxia are all smart people and can settle accounts!
Because they are the dignitaries and rich people in the imperial capital, and they are the ones who want to take in the refugees!
What scares them the most is that if those refugees enter their mansion, they will cause chaos in their house!
The most frightening thing is that if a refugee dies in their home, it will be unlucky and will lead to an investigation by the court!
As a powerful person in the Great Xia Dynasty, there are always some things that are hidden secretly. If he is investigated, who knows if he will be "pulled out of the carrot and out of the mud"?
This is absolutely not possible!
The courtiers thought clearly about the pros and cons of this matter!
Sure enough, being famous is worse than seeing it in person. Wang Hui of Huangzhou took action for the first time and directly deposed the third prince of Great Xia who was full of malice towards him!
Now, for the second time, in addition to releasing the "blood" of the emperor's dignitaries, he also wanted to use this matter to control all the courtiers. The method was so clever that it made people want to kneel down and worship!
At this time, the imperial censor said: "Your Majesty, I think what the prince said is reasonable. In this way, the problem of refugees in the imperial capital can be solved!"
However, Emperor Xia's eyes were full of a good show: "I also think this method is feasible!"
Suddenly, the hearts of all the courtiers in the room were tense!
They focused their eyes on Prime Minister Zuo Sima Jian, and the message conveyed was very clear!
As long as your Sima family is willing, we have nothing to say!
really.
"Why......"
Sima Jian sighed quietly, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I think this method of the prince is inappropriate!"
Emperor Xia was not surprised: "Why is it inappropriate?"
Xia Tian was not surprised: "Prime Minister Zuo, do you have a better way to resettle the refugees?"
at this time.
The abandoned prince Xia Bao murmured: "This method seems to be very good!"
