Chapter 509: Beloved Concubine (37)
She needed to keep the industries related to people's livelihood in the hands of the court, such as grain and salt.
No one is allowed to dominate the family and control Dayan's economic lifeline with family business.
There can be no monopoly in any industry.
As soon as this incident came out, Bai Tang and the minister became busy.
Especially when there is internal fighting involved.
Suddenly, all the officials with criminal records felt guilty.
The people enjoyed their leisure time and even talked about it.
There is also a storyteller telling what happened that day.
The audience in the live broadcast room could basically understand about 70% of the details, one thing after another. They were impressed by the wisdom of this young emperor.
[Your Majesty is really good! The thinking is also super strong, not old-fashioned and feudal. ]
[After seeing her daily life, I can only say that being an emperor is not that easy. ]
[It should be difficult to be a diligent and caring emperor. ]
[I thought the ancients were no smarter than us modern people. ]
Bai Xi couldn't help but smile when he saw these comments: "If you were to be the emperor, how long would you be able to live?"
[I am the puppet emperor! At least you can still enjoy it, there are beauties! ]
[If I have no ambition, let me be the puppet emperor! ]
[I think I will be tricked by them! ]
…
Even Xie Qingchen, who lived in the harem, knew about such a big movement.
The little maids discussed this matter in low voices.
"For this matter, His Majesty killed many officials."
"We also assigned soldiers to provide disaster relief food and threatened to kill anyone who dared to take advantage of the disaster relief food."
"Your Majesty is worthy of being your Majesty, with a dragon and a phoenix, and extraordinary nobility."
"Myolie, have you heard? Just two days ago, Your Majesty demoted Xie Qianfeng, the Minister of Rites, and also slapped him with a ban and a fine of salary."
"It seems that he is involved in this matter."
"It is estimated that His Majesty treated him for a crime of negligence, and I heard that his family was quite unlucky. One of his concubines became a living dead!"
"Living dead? What's going on?"
"It is said that his concubine accidentally fell down by the pool while walking at night, knocked her head, and then fell into the pool and submerged half of her body. When she was found, it had already been a night..."
"Keep your voice down, don't let my wife hear it. The Xie family is Cai Ren's natal family. If something happens to his natal family, Cai Ren will probably feel uncomfortable. Let's not mention it in front of him, lest he be offended."
"That's right, it's like that... Empress!"
The little palace maid glanced sideways and caught a glimpse of a face as flamboyant as a fiery camellia, and hurriedly stood up to salute.
"Empress Jin An, this servant will go to work immediately."
The two little maids wanted to slip away.
This really means Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!
Xie Qingchen stopped him and said, "Wait a minute."
The indistinguishable voice of male and female is not particularly pleasant to listen to.
The little palace maid panicked: "What are your orders?"
Xie Qingchen: "You just said that a concubine in the Xie Mansion fell and became a living dead?"
The palace maid lowered her head: "Your Majesty, you heard me wrong. Your servants dare not discuss the family affairs of the ministers."
Xie Qingchen narrowed his eyes: "I just heard you talking about Your Majesty. If you dare to talk about His Majesty, why is Xie Qianfeng who was demoted?"
The palace maid was silent and nervous.
Xie Qingchen continued to ask: "Tell me, I will not punish you. Is that concubine the singer Yuan Qiong who was redeemed by Master Xie?"
The palace maid hesitated for a moment: "I don't know, I only know that she is Mr. Xie's concubine."
Xie Qingchen's eyebrows relaxed a bit, and the corners of his mouth raised: "Oh, tell me, how can she be a living dead?"
