The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 158



Chapter 155 :argue

Xiao Rui entered the palace to ask for peace, in order to investigate the identity of the murdered girl. It is a pity that Xiao Rui has no one in the harem, and there is no one to trust, so the investigation is restrained, and in desperation, Xiao Rui thinks of Yan Xiaoxiao.

She is a female officer, and she is considered familiar with her. If she asks her for help, she should be able to find some clues.

Passing by the library, he stopped in front of the vermilion gate. I tried to push the door, and the two doors opened in response. Looking inside, I saw Yan Xiaoxiao writing in front of the copy, quietly and elegantly.

When she heard the door being pushed open, she raised her head subconsciously. When she saw Xiao Rui, she was surprised and delighted. She quickly put down her writing brush and trot over, saluted, and asked, “Your Majesty, today you have a rest, are you here to please? ”

Xiao Rui nodded and smiled: “I want to ask you for help!”

“His Royal Highness is here specifically to find me?” Yan Xiaoxiao was very happy, his eyes narrowed, like crescent teeth.

Xiao Rui watched him write attentively, and asked: “Look at your focused writing, what do you write?”

Yan Xiaoxiao panicked, ran back quickly, folded up what was written, blushed, and said: “Nothing, nothing!”

Xiao Rui thought that she was feeling affection for a girl, so he did not expose her. Instead, he drew the rubbed female officer’s waist badge from the embroidery port and handed it to her.

“Please help me to see what is the origin of this female official’s waist card, and can you find out who is her master!” Xiao Rui asked.

Yan Xiaoxiao opened the paper and looked at the rubbed pictures carefully. He always felt very familiar. He quickly took out his waist card, and after comparing it, said: “Your Majesty, this should be the new maid’s waist card. Look, with me. The basics are exactly the same. Each time the waist card enters the palace is different, and the waist card code for each maid selection is also different. Mine is one and one three, this is two, two and three. This waist card feels so familiar to me. Where have you seen it?”

Xiao Rui followed Yan Xiaoxiao’s guidance, and she saw a number imprinted on the corner of the waist card. This is a kind of traceable information, representing the identity of each female official. It was created by the Supervisor of Printing and is extremely difficult to imitate.

“Can you check it for me? See who this waist card belongs to. In addition, among the recently selected maidservants, has anyone suddenly gone out of the palace or disappeared suddenly?” Xiao Rui asked.

Yan Xiaoxiao was startled, and suddenly thought of Ye Mei.

“What’s wrong?” Xiao Rui noticed her strangeness and asked.

Yan Xiaoxiao looked at the waist card pattern in his hand, and said: “I will go to check for your highness now. Before going, can your highness tell me the origin of this waist card?”

Xiao Rui smiled and said, “I will tell you when you finish checking.”

Yan Xiaoxiao nodded, and then the two separated. Xiao Rui went to the Hall of Nourishment to ask for peace, and Yan Xiaoxiao went to investigate the place where the maidservant lived.

came to the Hall of Yangxin, the servant **** went into the hall to report.

Emperor Xia is practicing calligraphy, Hai Dafu is serving him.

“I heard that King Chu entered the palace early in the morning and went to Changchun Palace?” Xia Huang asked.

Hai Dafu said: “In response to your Majesty, yes, the King of Chu hurriedly entered the palace after the Meridian Gate opened, and went to the Changchun Palace to ask for peace.”

“Didn’t you come here?” Xia Huang asked while writing.

“I’m probably afraid that your Majesty will not wake up, so I went to the Changchun Palace first.” Hai Dafu hesitated.

Emperor Xia smiled. When he was about to speak, suddenly the servant **** came to report and Wang Xian asked to see him.

Xia Huang closed his pen, admired his masterpiece, nodded in approval, and then said: “Xuan!”

Xiao Rui entered the hall and said: “The sons and ministers are here to greet the emperor!”

The Emperor Xia smiled and said: “You can teach you. You criticized you last time. You have been here for four consecutive days. You have to come because I asked you to come, but you are willing to come?”

Xiao Ruiyi said righteously: “Of course I am willing, and I can learn something every time I come, so my sons and ministers come to ask Angan to be happy.”

“Oh? What have you learned, let’s listen to it?” Xia Huang sat down and asked, pointing to the next seat.

Xiao Rui sat down and said, “I learned the responsibility from the hard-working father and the emperor, learned the responsibilities from the busy imperial army, eunuchs, and court ladies, learned from the piles of memorials to make good use of talents…”

Xiao Rui’s mouth has no edge when it blows up. It can’t be helped. Who said he was in official career in his previous life.

Emperor Xia stopped his flattery and asked, “The responsibilities and duties are correct, but I learned from the piles of memorials to make good use of talents. Where do I start?”

Xiao Rui said: “Father, look at how many memorials you have made on the Dragon Case, how long will it take to review, what do you want the cabinet to do, and what do you want the celebrity supervisor to do.”

“Daddy Hai, I didn’t mean to accuse you, don’t stare at me.”

“Father, Father Hai stares at me!”

Hai Dafu looked dazed, didn’t I just pretend that I didn’t follow your words when you chatted with Xia Huang last time? I don’t need to take revenge in person like this.

The Emperor Xia knew that Xiao Rui was messing around, but he explained: “The New Year is about to close, and the annual report memorials from all states are sent over. Most of these memorials introduce the conditions of the states in the past year. The cabinet can’t vote for it. It can only be made by me. I personally review them one by one. From these memorials, I can see the running status of the entire Daxia.”

Xiao Rui nodded, which is like a summary of work at the end of the year.

“Father, you are not afraid of fraud by the states, only reporting the good and not the worry?” Xiao Rui asked curiously.

Xia Huang rejoiced, and said, “Rui’er, if this is heard by the provincial governor, he will definitely treat you as an enemy. You are slanderous.”

Xiao Rui smiled and said, “It’s okay. It’s Grandpa Hai’s fault to spread it out. It’s okay for Father to kill him then.”

Hai Dafu:…

Xia Huang said: “There must be frauds, but the governor does not dare to make all of them. It just polishes and polishes it in certain places. After all, there is information from various states in Dongchang. Once it is found that the falsehood is too large, the governor can’t take it around. It’s worth it. Of course, I only believe in 70% of these memorials.”

Xiao Rui nodded. Sure enough, there are too many things to learn in governing the country. The emperor is really tiring work.

Official duties during the day and the palace at night, I can’t stay idle, I always need to move.

moved to the rhythm.

While talking, the **** outside the hall came to report again, saying that King Chu would like to see him.

Xia Huang said: “Xuan!”

Just watched Xiao Yiheng walk in, he saw Xiao Rui also in the hall, nodded lightly, and then bowed his hands in salute: “My son pleased his father.”

Xia Huang smiled and said: “I have taken your brothers’ wishes. Sit down. I heard that you went to the Changchun Palace early in the morning?”

Xiao Yiheng walked to the other side and sat down, and replied: “I heard that the queen hasn’t slept well recently, and it just happened to be off today, so I went to the palace early to ask for peace.”

“Oh? Is the queen okay?” Xia Huang asked.

Xiao Yiheng smiled and said: “The empress is fine. It should be a colder day. After some wind and cold, I drank some **** soup. It is all right.”

Xiao Rui kept looking at him after he entered the palace.

Seeing his calm expression, acting as calm as Taishan and steady like an old dog, he couldn’t help but admire this son’s concentration, which is really not comparable to a character like Xiao Yuan.

The deceased’s waist card was missing. The girl’s body was found beside the moat. I believe Xiao Yiheng must know it. He hurried into the palace to find the queen, presumably to hide the girl’s relationship with him.

It seems that it should not be too difficult to involve the death crime of the deceased on Xiao Yiheng.

At this time, Emperor Xia said again: “This winter is colder than in previous years. It is only a few days before the beginning of winter. The water in the morning starts to freeze. Isn’t it even colder when it reaches a few nines?”

“Father is worried that the cold weather will affect the livelihood of the people?” Xiao Yiheng asked.

Emperor Xia nodded and said: “Earth dragons can be burned in the imperial palace. There is also charcoal donated by the Great Qi Kingdom. There is no flame and light when burning. Each can burn for ten days, and the heat is too hot to be approached. Yes. High-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen can also burn charcoal and fuelwood, but what about ordinary people?”

Xiao Yiheng respected: “The father always thinks of the people all the time, and the sons and ministers both admire and feel deeply ashamed.”

Xia Huang saw Xiao Rui thinking about things again, and asked: “Little Qi, what do you think?”

Xiao Rui was still thinking about how to expose Xiao Yiheng. Fortunately, he heard all directions and heard the question of Emperor Xia. He hurriedly said: “Father, my son has heard a poem: It’s hard to find birds and birds in a snowy day in the capital. Home, pounding peppers and mud on the walls. The red stove is hot everywhere, and the curtain is closed every week. Warm your hands and adjust the gold silk, dipped in the qiong liquid. Drunk singing jade dust flying, sleepy fragrant sweat dripping. Do you know that people who are hungry and cold have their hands and feet scrambled. hack.”

After hearing this, the Emperor Xia muttered: “Do you know that people who are hungry and cold have their hands and feet chopped…”

Xiao Rui continued: “In Daxia Country, charcoal, coal and firewood are mostly used for heating in winter. Charcoal is the best, but it is expensive. It is a pity that the red basket charcoal prepared by Xinsi every year has to be tens of thousands of catties. With black charcoal, coal, and firewood, how can the people afford it? Firewood is a reward from the court, and it is given to the officials in Beijing. Naturally, the people can’t use it, so there is only one last option left: coal. We Daxia craftsmen The skill is superb, including forging, because it is forged with coal. Although the burning of coal will produce toxic gases, the people can make special stoves to reduce the intake of toxic gases. But the price of coal is not cheap, and the people cannot afford it, but it is relatively Compared with charcoal and firewood, Erchen feels that coal mining can be vigorously carried out. UUwww.uukanshu.com”

Xiao Yiheng categorically retorted: “Father, my sons think it’s impossible! I have tried to develop the coal industry, but they all have committed serious crimes. There are two crimes. Once they are excavated, they are suspected of breaking the ground. They must gather people to make crimes. The second is to attract mines. Most of them are desperate slaves. Although the seal system is set up, it is not superficial.”

Xiao Rui said silently: “Since ancient times, people have conquered the sky. How can the excavation of coal destroy the veins? As for gathering all living beings and even rebelling, it is because the officials are harsh, and why use slaves to mine? You can pay for the people to mine, and the people can dig coal after busy farming. Can earn some money to make a living, and the money earned can in turn buy coal to survive the cold and harsh winter, killing two birds with one stone. Even if they are mines with refugees and slaves, they can also issue a benevolent policy. The reason why they are opposed is not because they are naturally rebellious, but because they are being rejected. Forced!”

Xiao Yiheng hummed: “In the past few years, the Chong’an Prefecture was destroyed by digging coal, causing the earth dragon to roll, and how many slaves were buried! This is a living case!”

Xiao Rui sneered: “That was a collapse, but it was caused by an unstable foundation and unstable frame. What does it have to do with the earth dragon? Not to mention…”

“Okay!” Xia Huang suddenly stopped, stopping the argument between the two.

Xia Huangdao: “This matter is postponed, today is not an early debate, you two rest.”

Xiao Rui and Xiao Yiheng stood up and put their hands together, saying, “Yes!”

Xiao Rui still has a big deal. If you don’t want to stay here for a long time, please retire first.

Leaving the Hall of Nurturing Heart, Xiao Rui came to the library, and saw Yan Xiaoxiao sitting there, looking at the female officer’s waist card rubbings, in a daze.

Xiao Rui realized what she had found out, and hurriedly knocked on the door of the room.
