Chapter 66 Dad, You Almost Missed a Good Horse From the Neighboring Country!

"Your Majesty, because of advance preparation, the plague has now been controlled to a small area!"

The sergeant who reported the incident knelt down to report.

"The doctors have now set up isolation tents for the patients, the corpses have been burned, and the utensils have been sterilized at high temperature."

"The plague-dispelling prescriptions drafted by the emperor have helped a large number of mild patients improve after three doses!"

The entire court of civil and military officials was stunned.

The censor and Fu Cha, who had taken the lead in admonishing the emperor and had just said that Emperor Xiao Yunzhou was not doing his job, opened their mouths and trembled and closed them again!

What is the prescription drafted by the emperor?

Wait, the emperor summoned the head of the Imperial Hospital and several imperial doctors into the study more than ten days ago, for this plague prescription! ?

The cabinet has not yet received news of the outbreak of plague in the flood-affected area!

"Doctor Xu said that the plague spread very quickly in the early stage. Fortunately, the emperor sent them there in time. Otherwise, if they were three days later, the epidemic would spread and the number of patients might reach tens of thousands! The situation would be out of control!"

The soldier who reported the news from the flood-affected area knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

His eyes were red.

"Now, the people who have recovered from the disease and their families, please ask the local county magistrate to write a letter of gratitude to the emperor for his protection, and sign it!"

The soldier who reported the news was obviously one of them.

As he spoke, tears could not help but fall from the corners of his eyes, but he wiped them off quickly.

With both hands, he carefully took out a scroll from his lapel.

"If there was no emperor, the people of Mingxi Town and Luhan County would have turned into dry bones!"

The soldier kowtowed, raised his hands high, and his voice was like a bell!

"The emperor's grace is great, protecting all people! We swear to follow the emperor till death!"

"Long live the emperor!"

Xiao Yunzhou, who was sitting on the dragon throne, had a pair of usually humble eyes, but they were all bloodshot!

He tightly grasped the red gold armrests of the dragon throne, his chest shaking and burning.

"Get up!"

Xiao Yunzhou had been in office for ten years, and for the first time he felt the people's true and firm support written in blood!

For the first time, he felt the blood boiling of being an emperor!

So, being a good emperor who does practical things and is remembered by the people, is this what it feels like?

"I will not abandon any of the people of Jingguo!"

Xiao Yunzhou stood up excitedly.

The civil and military officials in the court came back to their senses from shock.

Fu Cha looked up and felt blinded.

In the past, the prince who was only as tall as his waist had grown up.

Taller than any day before!

It seemed like he was seeing the emperor's face for the first time.

"Longduo, Fucha," Emperor Xiao Yunzhou asked people to settle the messenger who came from afar, then sat down again and looked at the two people who had just led the remonstration.

"What did you say to me just now?"

"I forgot, you say it again."

Fucha opened his mouth silently, his old face flushed.

And Longduo behind him, a third-rank remonstrant, the top scholar of the year, ranked among the top three officials in the emperor's sudden assessment this time. He was highly expected by Fucha. He was the first to remonstrate with the emperor just now, scolding the prince's new schedule of less reading, the unprofessional arrangement of washing vegetables in the kitchen, and even criticizing the emperor's unprofessional discussion of the prescription for longevity with the imperial physician...!

But now Longduo is full of knowledge, facing Xiao Yunzhou, but can't answer a word!

"Long Aiqing, what did you say I said just now? What do you hope I will correct, huh?"

Longduo: "..."

He started to turn red from his ears.

Only silence!

Otherwise, what to answer?

Answer that he thinks the emperor is not doing his job?

What a joke!

If the emperor who saved thousands of refugees is also considered not doing his job, then he, Longduo, who stands in the court and can only talk, has not done anything? !

Longduo's face was stiff and red.

He was originally arranged by Fucha Ge Lao to be the first to take the lead in scolding the emperor, and he must let the emperor know what the emperor should do and what he should not do!

Now... Longduo is embarrassed.

"Your servant, your servant does not know the whole picture, and blindly advises, which is biased."

Longduo knelt down directly.

He took off the official hat on his forehead, "Your servant, I have no face to face the emperor, and I have no face to face thousands of refugees!"

Speaking of the latter, he wanted to dig a hole to crawl into.

It was really embarrassing!

Xiao Yunzhou smiled, so comfortable~

Since he had a little princess, he felt more and more comfortable with the emperor's training of officials.

But he only smiled for a while and didn't continue.

By avoiding the plague, Jingguo avoided a crisis of national destruction.

But Jingguo's national strength is still over 20, and has not improved significantly.

"Get up."

Xiao Yunzhou raised his hand and looked at the civil and military officials in the court.

At present, there are no ministers with intelligence below 50 in the court.

But it is still not enough!

"I hope that you, my dear ministers, will also show your strengths and do your best! Don't talk about it on paper and waste your energy on forming cliques for personal gain!"

The faces of the officials in the court were stiff.

"From today on, anyone who shows his strengths and does great things will be rewarded by me!"

[Aww, yes, our national strength is low in all aspects. ]

Xiao Chuchu listened and couldn't help but check the various components of national strength in his mind.

The information given by the system is very clear.

[Medicine-Low]

[Economy-Low]

[Military-Low]

[Agriculture-Poor]

[Industry-Low]

[Commerce-Low]

Xiao Chuchu's mind was awakened when he saw it.

[Oh, after not seeing it for a few days, our medicine has improved slightly. But the evaluation of commerce has decreased because the technology of the neighboring country's handicraft industry has improved. ]

Xiao Yunzhou heard his daughter's voice and his face was solemn.

One down and one up, not optimistic!

This is the first time he has heard such a detailed analysis of national strength.

It turns out that Jingguo has nothing to show for it!

It's outrageous!

"Regarding the prince's study in the kitchen," Xiao Yunzhou closed his eyes, "you don't need to persuade him anymore."

"If you can't clean your own house, how can you clean the world?"

"If you can't tell the difference between the five grains, who can be a teacher?"

Xiao Yunzhou sighed. Jingguo needs to improve in all aspects, so it can't raise a prince who can only write articles!

"My dear ministers, if you have time on weekdays, I also hope that you can do some farm work and be a carpenter."

Xiao Yunzhou spoke.

The civil and military officials in the court were stunned.

Except for the Liu family master who bowed his head, everyone else's face changed drastically.

What the hell?

The emperor is not satisfied with his own son, but he also wants to torture them?

Xiao Yunzhou said earnestly, "These analogies may improve your thinking ability."

"..."

The ministers were all stunned.

The emperor openly despised them for being stupid! ?

It was Longduo, who had just been humiliated, who was the first to respond loudly, "I obey your order! When I go back today, I will learn from the emperor. I will read medical books and do carpentry work when I have time."

"Your Majesty is wise! Only by getting close to the lives of the people can we benefit the people!"

"…………"

The whole court was speechless.

Is there some truth?

It's just that, how come this official is getting weirder and weirder?

But the emperor responded to the plague in advance, but they didn't.

The emperor came up with a prescription, but they didn't.

I don't have the face to refute!

The ministers all lowered their heads.

Isn't it just carpentry?

Isn't it just standing in the kitchen to observe?

Do it!

"Ministers, it's getting late. If there's nothing to do, leave the court. If there's something to do, report it." Wei Zheng looked at the sun and spoke.

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou was ready to go back to entertain his daughter.

Who knows if another medical book will fall or something.

At the very least, I could give a weaving book to Concubine Liu.

But just as I was thinking this, a minister from the Ministry of Rites stood up.

"Your Majesty, the envoys from Wu Yunguo arrived in the capital yesterday and want to meet your Majesty in the near future."

Xiao Yunzhou raised his eyebrows, "Oh? The last time Wu Yunguo paid tribute to my Jingguo was twenty years ago."

He was overjoyed.

But the Minister of Rites said awkwardly, "They are not paying tribute to my Jingguo, they want to open up border markets with us."

Xiao Yunzhou was stunned.

During the time of my grandfather, Wu Yunguo was still very weak and could only survive by relying on their Jingguo.

But after the late emperor came to power, Wu Yunguo gradually became stronger and stronger, and no longer paid tribute.

The late emperor didn't like them either, and simply stopped communicating with them.

Xiao Yunzhou frowned, "No."

The rules can't be changed here!

But just as he finished speaking, the Minister of Rites took the order and withdrew, and heard his daughter's cry in his arms.

[I remember that Wu Yunguo sent envoys to trade with us, and the emperor in the novel also rejected them. ]

[As a result, Wu Yunguo turned around and traded with the neighboring Chu State, selling them a batch of new war horses with fast legs! ]

[The combat power of the Chu cavalry was greatly improved, and half a year later they came to our Jing State border to rob the people's supplies. ]

Xiao Chuchu's face turned red from sobbing.

"!"

Xiao Yunzhou stared.

When Wei Zheng shouted to withdraw the court, he raised his hand.

"Wait!"
