Qianqing Palace.The young emperor Zhu Youxiao and the young empress Zhang Yan were sitting around the fireplace.Although the two have shared each other's beds.But the two are only meeting for the third time at this time, and they are not familiar with each other, so they are naturally still a little strange and cramped."
Although my father is just a showman, he has not been promoted, but in the township, he has always been the most popular person, and the villagers obey his words, so whoever has a dispute has to rely on him to preside over justice, whose family has a wedding, funeral, and wedding, he also has to preside over the etiquette, build roads, build bridges and dig ditches, and the official sends to the countryside, and he has to rely on him to contact, even if anyone has grievances, he has to rely on him to write a lawsuit for the villagers, so after the father left his hometown because he and his concubines wanted to enter Beijing, the villagers were reluctant to let him, said that everyone didn't know how to live their lives in the future. ”Because Zhu Youxiao took the initiative to let the queen talk about his family's situation, Zhang Yan sat aside and talked about it at this time.Zhu Youxiao listened carefully, nodded slightly, and said: "Ling Zun is a Hanshi, for the whole world, even if it is just the entire Shilin, he is not a character, but for a village, he is a pivotal figure. ”"Exactly, Your Majesty, the villagers say a lot, I'd rather have no county order in the Yazhong, and I can't do without a minister who presides over justice, even if it is the county lord, if you want to collect taxes and grain, you have to levy labor, and you have to rely on the help of the township minister or lord, otherwise you can't succeed."
Zhang Yan spoke.Zhu Youxiao was silent, and after a while, he looked at Zhang Yan's shadow and said, "So, Ling Zun has left your hometown, and your hometown will be in chaos from now on, and the imperial court will not be able to control your villagers?"
”Zhang Yan pursed her lips, her big round eyes turned, and then she turned to look at Zhu Youxiao, she seemed to be thinking about the deep meaning of the emperor's question.Zhang Yan thought for a while before replying: "If there is no one else who can replace my father, this is indeed the case, but it is not easy to show talent in the township, even if there is a show, most of them want to fly Huang Tengda, either go to the city to join the homes of those officials and lords to do the west seat, and will not come back to help the villagers, or go to the city to climb the high branches of the officials and lords and then return to the township to claim the king, so the show of my father who is willing to stay in the township and help the villagers is relatively rare, and because of this, it is important, and the villagers love it." , I can't bear it. ”Zhu Youxiao smiled, he found that marrying a commoner woman as a queen was actually quite conducive to his grasp of the first information at the grassroots level."
What do those who say when they return to their hometowns and claim to be kings?
Tell me more about it. ”Zhu Youxiao asked Zhang Yanlai again."
Your Majesty, you don't know, some villages have become a family village in this way, such as the village on the river in our township, because their Tu Xianggong married the daughter of Luan Daotai, so after returning to his hometown, he and the government bullied the villagers, so that the villagers were forced to pay dozens or even a hundred times more taxes every year, until they were allowed to sell their fields at a low price, and then the fields in that village became Tu Xianggong's family."
Zhang Yan spoke.Zhu Youxiao's expression became solemn after hearing this, and he said in his heart: "It seems that Daming needs to cultivate more scholars who can manage the villagers for the imperial court in the township and village, but also need to control the scholars who are the emperor of the land in the township and the hegemon, especially those who collude with the local powerful and the government, in the final analysis, it is still the control power of their own court at the grassroots level is not enough, and the investment in education is not enough!"
So that the quality of grassroots governance is all linked to the personal moral standard of the local squire!
If there are several or even a dozen scholars in a village, they can check and supervise each other!
However, it is also a problem for people to refuse to stay in their hometowns after they become talents, and to solve the problem, we can only increase the establishment of basic official positions, enhance the control of the imperial court over the grassroots, break the stereotype that the imperial power does not go to the countryside, and make some scholars stay in the countryside to serve the grassroots through power and generous treatment. ”"Your Majesty?"
Zhang Yan glanced at Zhu Youxiao at this time.But when she saw that Zhu Youxiao was deep in thought, she didn't speak again, just sat aside, and let the promise of serving her give her a grate.Zhu Youxiao was called by Zhang Yan so softly, came back to his senses, and then said "um", and only looked at Zhang Yan's grate.Zhang Yan noticed that Zhu Youxiao was staring at her, so she tightened her lips, the pear vortex was slightly exposed, her cheeks were a little more flushed, and her long black hair fell from Qu Mei's figure like a waterfall, swaying in the air, waving a trace of fragrant wind.Zhu Youxiao also had a full view of all this, and because of this, he couldn't help but pick his eyes up, and saw Zhang Yan's jade neck, and the tender white skin hidden in the tulle under the jade neck.For a while, Zhu Youxiao also felt uncomfortable, picked up and put down the notebook on the side, and finally simply got up and went to the royal bed, first went to the bed to lie down, and took the initiative to untie the outer robe.Because he can't see anything now, he just feels very hot and dry.After Zhang Yan's grate was finished, she was still sitting by the fire, holding her cheeks, looking at Zhu Youxiao, and blinked: "Your Majesty, are you sleepy?"
”Zhu Youxiao had to say: "Come up!"
It's time to get down to business!
”Zhang Yan's phoenix eyes suddenly widened, her lips were pursed, her eyes were lowered, she looked at the ground, fiddled with her fingers, and frowned slightly: "Do you have to do the right thing with Your Majesty?"
Can Your Majesty be gracious and not do the right thing today?
”"No, you can't!"
Zhu Youxiao replied very seriously, and was in a hurry to get up and pull Zhang Yan over.Zhang Yan begged timidly: "Then Your Majesty can you take it lightly?"
”Zhu Youxiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded, his serious face smiled slightly, and said softly: "Okay, you can come here!"
”Zhang Yan got up and dragged her long and straight black hair over, and then obediently lay next to Zhu Youxiao.Zhu Youxiao was also short of breath, and his eyes stared at the top of the bed very energetically.Promise to leave as soon as the lights go out.Zhu Youxiao turned over dishonestly, climbed onto the queen, and gnawed on.Next.Zhu Youxiao still woke up before Zhang Yan, but this time, he didn't frown, only smiled, secretly kissed Zhang Yan's white forehead, and then got up and got out of bed quickly, so that he promised to serve him to change his clothes and wash."
Tell everyone below to be quiet, the queen is still sleeping."
For a while, Zhu You proofread Wang Chengen and suddenly instructed him to do so, and then he went to exercise.After finishing the exercise, Wei Zhongxian happened to come to Zhu Youxiao: "Your Majesty!
There is an important secret report from Nanjing. ”
