"Emperor~"
Slowly returning to the Jingxin Hall, Jiang Beiran was about to enter the door when he heard a delicate call.
Turning his head to look, Jiang Beiran said, "Oh, it's Zhiyi."
The status of the concubines in Yuxiu Palace is rather embarrassing now, because specifically they are the concubines of the previous dynasty. Now that the new emperor has changed, they naturally lose all status. Exile together, of course, some emperors with heavy tastes also left some coveted mothers and concubines as their wives.
A few days ago the Grand Tutor said that the management of the harem is also an important part of the emperor, and those women in the Yuxiu Palace are neither concubines nor maids of honor, so it is really strange to stay in the palace.
After a little thought, Jiang Beiran gave them a brand new identity, Cairen, which means talented women.
These concubines have lived in the deep palace for a long time, so they will naturally find some hobbies when they have nothing to do on weekdays, such as embroidery, rhythm, sleeve dancing and so on.
Then Jiang Bei let them continue to develop their hobbies and talents, and it would be quite good to set up a chorus, song and dance troupe, and drama troupe in the future.
And the Qiu Zhiyi in front of me is the one with the most comprehensive quality among the five thousand beauties in the harem. It can be said that she can sing, dance, embroider and weave, and she is especially good at playing the flute. Come on, it's amazing.
According to Wang Shougui, this Qiu Zhiyi is a beautiful girl who has just been selected, and Deng Bo was arrested before meeting the emperor.
You must know that there are tens of thousands of civilian women who want to join the emperor's family. If you want to be selected as a show girl, you have to go through layers of selection by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Qiu Zhiyi finally stood out all the way, but when she entered the palace, she was told that the emperor was gone. , which made her really aggrieved and panicked.
Now there is a new emperor, and the queen has not yet been chosen, which made Qiu Zhiyi very impatient. After repeated trials, she found that she was free to leave Yuxiu Palace, so she couldn't wait to attract the emperor's attention.
One night, Jiang Beiran was walking towards the bedroom when he suddenly heard the sound of flutes.
In line with the moonlight at that time, Jiang Bei, who was suddenly touched by a certain memory point, couldn't help asking: "Who plays the flute under the moon?"
In this way, Jiang Beiran first met Qiu Zhiyi, who is both talented and beautiful.
…
Hearing that the emperor remembered her name, Qiu Zhiyi was overjoyed, and immediately came up and made a blessing: "I have met the emperor, but the emperor just came back early?"
Seeing Qiu Zhiyi's attentive look, Mu Yao, who was standing behind Jiang Beiran, couldn't help but pouted.
Because Jiang Beiran did not lie to most of the beauties in the palace, this made Mu Yao feel inexplicably happy, thinking that Jiang Beiran had a very high vision, and he was a rare good man. Fang Xiaoqie's eldest father is even better.
But Qiu Zhiyi is a special existence among them. Not only was the emperor specially called her in front of her that night, but today the emperor also kindly called her name, which made her feel a little uncomfortable in her chest. Why is Zhiyi upset
On the other side, Deng Xianghan kept looking at Qiu Zhiyi.
She was not hostile, but wanted to find out what attracted the emperor to her. After all, she never gave up the most cost-effective method of "seduction".
"Although her beauty is good, she is by no means the best. It shouldn't make the emperor look at her differently, so... does the emperor really like listening to the flute?" '
Deng Xianghan, who silently memorized this point, decided to go back and study hard.
Hearing Qiu Zhiyi's question, Jiang Beiran nodded as an answer.
"The emperor is so diligent, it is really a blessing for the people in the world, I really admire you, how about letting me play a song for you to relieve your fatigue?"
"No, I like to be quiet when I read."
Qiu Zhiyi paused for a moment, and the speech she had prepared later was blocked by this sentence of liking quiet.
After hearing this, Mu Yao was overjoyed, she almost wanted to go up and laugh at Qiu Zhiyi.
Deng Xianghan silently wrote down the fact that the emperor likes to be quiet when reading.
Seeing that the emperor was about to leave after finishing speaking, Qiu Zhiyi quickly supported her forehead and said: "Your Majesty, I have been feeling weak recently and can't exert any strength. I heard that your majesty's medical skills are unparalleled. Can you make a diagnosis for me?"
Because he cured a 60-year-old minister who suddenly coughed up blood and fell to the ground some time ago, Jiang Beiran gained the reputation of unparalleled medical skills in the palace.
Glancing at Qiu Zhiyi's slightly panting and holding her heart, Jiang Beiran said.
"Drink more water."
After speaking, he went back to the Jingxin Hall.
"The emperor... is really different from those ordinary people. It seems that we have to think about it in the long run." '
Making up her mind secretly, Qiu Zhiyi turned and left.
Stepping into the Hall of Meditation, Jiang Bei ran into Deng Shuowan who was practicing dancing under fallen leaves. She was Deng Bo's third daughter, the third princess, Princess Pingle.
Under the fallen leaves, Deng Shuowan danced gracefully. I saw a tremor spread from the tip of her left finger to her shoulder, and then from her shoulder to the finger of her right finger. The silver bracelet on her hand vibrated accordingly. Every movement was natural and smooth, as if in Spirits dancing in the wind.
Sensing the emperor's gaze, Deng Shuowan's dancing posture suddenly deformed, and finally she had to stop and made a shy expression, as if she was a girl in Huaichun who was accidentally seen by her crush.
Going forward, Jiang Beiran saw the sixth princess, Deng Yunmeng, sitting at a table, drawing ink paintings, ink brushes and blues, like flowing clouds and flowing water around plain paper. When looking at her, Deng Yunmeng smiled slightly, very softly.
Jiang Beiran, who saw the two princesses in a row, couldn't help raising his eyebrows. He realized something in his heart. It is probably because Deng Xianghan knew that he had named those harem women as talented women, and thought he liked talented women. One by one, they all pulled over in this talent show.
The facts were not as Jiang Beiran expected. On the way back to the imperial study, Jiang Beiran saw all kinds of talents displayed by the princesses one by one, including sword dancing, but no matter what the performance was, after noticing his own After looking at you, you will immediately show your unique charm, or show your face with a smile, or shyly avoid it, or boldly invite you.
'Good guy, it's really a complete range. '
Sighing in his heart, he pushed open the door of the imperial study room, and when he was about to step in, Jiang Bei was taken aback.
I saw Princess Luoyu, who was only a yellow mouth, waving her long sleeves and dancing a strange dance that she probably wouldn't be able to do a second time. When she found the emperor coming in, Princess Luoyu, Deng Shuyu, immediately lay down on the ground and posed A seductive gesture blinked vigorously, as if to wink.
Seeing a ten-year-old girl boldly seduce him, Jiang Beiran suddenly had veins popping up on his head, he rushed up to pick up Deng Shuyu and beat her ass!
"Ah! Ah!!"
Deng Shuyu, who was suddenly beaten, couldn't help but let out a series of screams, feeling as if her butt was about to split into eight petals.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, stop beating me, uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."
Hearing Deng Shuyu crying out of breath, Jiang Beiran put her down and took a deep breath and said, "If I see you doing this coquettish pose again, it will not only be your butt that blooms!"
"Woooooo, I know I was wrong." Deng Shuyu cried while rubbing her butt.
Letting out a long breath, Jiang Beiran looked at Deng Xianghan again and said, "You! If you come up with such a bad idea again, I will throw you all out of the palace!"
"Yes, I know I was wrong."
But after apologizing, Deng Xianghan was quite puzzled in his heart. Obviously those younger sisters were not reprimanded by the emperor before, so why can't Jiumei do it? Even if the emperor doesn't like little ones, he shouldn't be so cruel.
Venting the unknown anger in his heart, Jiang Beiran pointed to Deng Shuyu and said to Kong Qianqian: "Go and get some candied fruit for her to eat."
"The servant obeys the order." After Kong Qianqian finished speaking, he went to get the candied fruit.
After a while, Deng Shuyu, who was chewing the candied fruit, gradually stopped sobbing. Looking at the maid in front of her who was staring at the candied fruit in her hand, Deng Shuyu took out a piece of candied peach from the bottle and handed it to Kong Qianqian, "Do you want to eat it?"
Although Kong Qianqian really wanted to nod, but remembering the rules established by the emperor, she shook her head hastily.
Seeing Kong Qianqian shaking her head, Deng Shuyu put the candied fruit back into her mouth.
Although her buttocks were still burning, Deng Shuyu looked at the emperor curiously.
Feeling that a line of sight was fixed on him, Jiang Beiran put down the book, looked at Deng Shuyu and said, "What's wrong."
"It's nothing." Deng Shuyu quickly lowered her head.
But after a while, Deng Shuyu quietly raised her head to look at the emperor again.
"Speak up if you have something to say." Jiang Beiran asked again.
"I feel that your majesty is really a good person."
'Good guy, it's okay to be issued a good card by a ten-year-old girl. '
Rolling his eyes, Jiang Beiran was about to continue reading when he saw Deng Shuyu running over and hugging his leg.
"Your Majesty, will you always protect us?"
Seeing Deng Shuyu's pitiful appearance, Jiang Beiran replied: "As long as you are in this palace, you are my people."
Although Deng Shuyu didn't half understand, she felt a sense of security. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but remembered her sister's advice, and swallowed the words back.
At this time, Deng Xianghan, who was standing behind, said, "Slave maid, take her out, don't let this child affect the emperor's reading."
Jiang Beiran nodded, raised his foot and handed Deng Shuyu to Deng Xianghan.
Looking at the back of Deng Xianghan holding his sister out, Jiang Beiran couldn't help feeling that these princesses are not easy, and the way they tried their best to live is very distressing.
It can't be their father's fault that things turned out like this, after all, it's really not easy to be the emperor in this Sheng country.
When correcting the memorial at night, Jiang Bei, who felt that the content of the memorial was quite different, put down his brush and began to meditate.
As time passed day by day, he was getting more and more used to the status of emperor, and at the same time, he didn't want to continue to follow the rules like this.
He had been learning how to be an emperor step by step before, because he knew that before he wanted to change something, he had to understand it first, otherwise he would have no way of doing it.
Now that the revolution has laid the foundation for Sheng Kingdom, on this basis, Jiang Beiran decided to do something interesting. Before he patrolled all over the country, in addition to the main purpose of deterring local magistrates, another purpose was to see himself Is it now in a "safe" state.
When Jiang Beiran first became emperor, he had a blueprint for the 21st century in his mind, but he didn't know how to make this place what he imagined.
After becoming emperor and reading so many books, the blueprint in his mind gradually became more concrete.
For example, the abolition of the imperial examination system has allowed the people to learn more diversely. Although there are no teachers in mathematics, physics and chemistry, Jiang Beiran believes that as long as he succeeds in reforming, talents in all fields will naturally spring up like mushrooms after rain.
At that time, he will write a few more books on addition, subtraction, multiplication and division as enlightenment reading materials. Maybe he can even see steam engines in his lifetime.
The other is to reduce taxes and encourage businessmen.
Because he knows that no matter in which era, the economic base can determine the superstructure. If the economy cannot keep up, or even lags behind, blindly transforming the political structure will easily have the opposite effect.
There is also the need to gradually delegate power to those loyal ministers selected by the system, and let them do what they are good at. Don't point everything at him, the emperor, to make decisions. The efficiency is too low.
As for the obstacles that will arise in this kind of reform, Jiang Beiran has also thought of them one by one, and is also thinking about and experimenting with solutions.
First of all, the most important point is that no matter how powerful the emperor is in the past dynasties, the corruption of grassroots officials cannot be changed, the ability of management and control cannot be lowered to the county, the bureaucracy is obedient, and the law is not enforced.
This is because he can fly, and he flies very fast, so it can barely be regarded as being cracked by violence. Although it is impossible to completely eliminate it, it is much better than before.
In addition, Jiang Beiran is going to make another "report box" and put it all over the place to encourage the public to submit letters and report, and then set a sufficient reward at that time.
If the people are in other places and want to come to Ningdu to report, they will provide the post horse directly, and provide the treatment of a fifth-rank official, two liters of fine rice, two liters of noodles, one liter of wine, three parts of meat, and salt, soy sauce, green onion, ginger , sunflower and other spices.
To put it simply, there is a special car for delivery, and delicious food and drink. For many people who usually don’t have enough to eat, they are dead anyway, so why not go all out
Of course, it is impossible to completely rely on the people to report.
After studying a lot of books and recalling various regulatory systems in the 21st century, Jiang Beiran also came up with a feasible method.
First of all, to rectify the corruption of local officials, we must focus on the regulation of the system and the legal system, so that the operation of power is open and transparent, and supervised by specialized agencies. In addition, the media is also a very powerful and lethal weapon against officials, powerful enough to make all officials even I dare not wear a famous watch, for fear of being taken away by a wave.
Although it is impossible to create an online media with extremely fast information dissemination, newspapers can be established first, and the lethality is not weak.
With multiple efforts, Jiang Beiran believes that one day he will not be needed to fly around every day, and the corruption of local officials in Sheng Kingdom will also be greatly reduced.
The second point is the formation of cliques for private interests, party struggles, and vested interest groups.
This thing, which can be said to be the ultimate cancer of the court, was easily eliminated by the system, because under his command, there were only ministers who were loyal to the emperor and patriotic, which was impossible in any era, and he was the only one.
It can be said that it saved him thousands of troubles.
