Chapter 1216 Great Drought
Li Chengkong said: "You haven't been able to control them Yuzheng, it's actually right."
Song Yuzheng glanced at him sideways: "Aren't you talking sarcastic?"
"Even if you are angry, you don't use your imperial power to suppress it." Li Chengkong smiled and said, "This is the most important thing, and it's done very well."
When the emperor gets angry, blood floats for ten miles. This is the emperor's authority.
But as the emperor, Song Yuzheng did not use this kind of power to suppress others, so he made a good start.
Once the emperor is in power, all ministers will be wary of fear, and if they are wary of fear, they will stay away from him and will not be devoted to helping each other.
With the help of being free from faith and virtue, how can we use our hearts to govern the world? Everyone has their own small abacus, and in the end the emperor became the only husband. How could he do it by one person?
Be kind and powerful, and be fair and strict. These eight words are easy to say, but extremely difficult to do.
As the emperor, Song Yuzheng did not reward and punish her own joys and angers. She obviously hated these ministers so much that she was itchy, but without a handle, she could only endure the hatred and slowly deal with it, which was very unhuman.
Song Yuzheng said: "This is also learned from Sister Dugu."
The two women had a lot of exchanges and had a lot of experience in governing the world and dealing with their ministers.
Song Yuzheng was deeply touched and influenced.
Especially the imperial power cannot be used lightly. The imperial power is like the sword of the emperor hanging high above the head. When it is most powerful, it is when it is hanging without falling.
Once it falls, it will be less deterrent. The more times it falls, the less deterrent it will be.
So even though she hated her teeth and wanted to kill them, she had no handle and they did not violate the law, but she still endured it.
As an emperor, she needs to take the lead in maintaining the majesty of the law and enhancing the majesty of the law so that she can calm people's hearts and be orderly.
"But you can't just use softness." Li Chengkong smiled and said, "Don't think about using softness to overcome hardness, you are the emperor now."
Song Yuzheng frowned and looked at him.
Li Chengkong said: "Can you do a big inspection from top to bottom? Investigate corruption and serious crimes everywhere. They can resist investigations. Where are their families? Or their relatives and friends?"
Song Yuzheng hesitated.
Li Chengkong smiled and said, "If you can resist it? You are extremely honest and honest? Then there is nothing to say."
"What if their relatives and friends are found? What about family and children?"
"Then of course, it will follow the law." Li Chengkong said: "You must not tolerate any punishment."
"so……"
"If they find a problem, their majesty will be hit? How weak is the ability to call the wind and rain? Can they be honest?"
"I'm afraid I won't find out the problem." Song Yuzheng shook her head and said, "They will become more proud and crazy!"
Li Chengkong smiled and said, "If this is the case, what if they are rampant?"
"Well, that's it." Song Yuzheng nodded slowly.
"Let Zi Yan help you? Cooperate with the imperial court's inspection department."
"Zhuyinsi is in the martial arts world? Can you find out the affairs of the court?"
"Now Zhuyinsi is not the same as before." Li Chengkong shook his head and said, "It's getting bigger and bigger? It's all over my ears and ears."
"Then you have to experience it." Song Yuzheng smiled.

Nanwang Mansion Villa
Li Chengkong sat in the pavilion in the courtyard, holding a book in one hand, and picking up a piece of pastry in the other hand and delivering it to his mouth.
Just at this moment? In the faint fragrance, Dugu Shuming floated in lightly and sat opposite him.
Li Chengkong put down the book and smiled and said, "Is it worth it, Mrs.?"
"I heard that Sister Song wants to abdicate?" Dugu Shuming asked directly.
Li Chengkong glanced at Yuan Ziyan.
Yuan Ziyan turned her head and pretended not to see his gaze.
"Is it true?" Dugu Shuming said: "Look at Zi Yan for what he is doing!"
"She was just angry for a moment? Now she has changed her mind." Li Chengkong withdrew his gaze? He smiled at Dugu Shuming.
"Sister Song seems to have reached its limit." Dugu Shuming shook his head gently and sighed: "I can't hold on."
Li Chengkong nodded.
Is the emperor under great pressure? Do you have to restrain yourself? It is even more uncomfortable to prevent the pressure from being leaked.
"What did you say, Master?"
"I have an idea for her and have a big inspection."
"She has not yet established a foundation? If she is so big, aren't she afraid that the ministers will join forces to fight against opposition?"
"If they are not stupid, they dare not."
"For the sake of power and status, no matter how smart a person is, he will be confused and will be blinded by profit."
"That's right."
"Husband, you are so cruel." Dugu Shuming shook his head.
Li Chengkong smiled and said, "Madam and Yu Zheng, you are too kind. You need to be both hard and soft. It is not reasonable to just be gentle."
"Oh..." Dugu Shuming shook his head: "It's not easy for them to work hard and waste their efforts."
Li Chengkong smiled and said, "Madam, you are already a monarch and minister, and you are harmonious, but Yu Zheng is not here."
The ministers of Dayue were so shocked that they completely calmed down their thoughts they shouldn't have, so they felt that it was good to have such a kind emperor, even though they were the female emperor.
Dayun is not yet successful.
Song Yuzheng's shock was still a little less powerful, and she couldn't make them surrender completely, so she secretly competed.
"Oh..." Dugu Shuming shook his head and said, "It's too difficult to be an emperor."
Li Chengkong said: "There are even more difficult things. Madam, please be careful. There will be severe drought in Dayue this year."
“Severe drought?”
"A severe drought that has not been seen in a century." Li Chengkong's expression gradually became solemn: "I'm afraid Dayue is unable to bear it now."
Dugu Shuming's face also became serious.
Although the imperial court had an Imperial Heavenly Prison, responsible for observing astronomical phenomena and predicting good and bad luck, she believed in Li Chengkong's observations more.
“How drought will it be?”
"If you are not prepared, you may have no grains." Li Chengkong shook his head: "We have to start repairing the canal now."
As his understanding of the power of heaven and earth deepened, his astrology and his sense of heaven and earth became stronger.
I couldn't see this drought, but now I can see it.
"Build the canal..." Dugu Shuming frowned slightly.
Yuan Ziyan said: "Madam, it is a good thing to build canals. It is beneficial to the country and the people, and the people will not object, right?"
Dugu Shuming shook his head gently: "The cost of building a canal is huge. The court often allocates 100 taels of silver. After layers of exploitation, only ten taels of silver fell on the canal. The treasury does not have much silver now."
"Madam, your idea won't hit the silver in our palace, right?" Li Chengkong said with a smile.
"If it is entrusted to the people, I'm afraid there will be complaints and public opinion will be boiling." Dugu Shuming frowned and said, "So you can only borrow money."
"It's better to borrow from the people." Li Chengkong said: "Issuing national bonds."
He said the national debts of his previous life, and Dugu Shuming nodded repeatedly, thinking about something.
Yuan Ziyan smiled and said, "Master, you are too stingy, so what if you lend money to your wife?"
Li Chengkong snorted: "The whole country can build canals, how can our small royal palace hold on to it?"
Dugu Shuming nodded and said, "It's true. You still have to use national debts. It's better for the court to borrow money from the people."
Yuan Ziyan glanced at Li Chengkong and smiled with a pursed lips.
The wealth of the Nanwang Mansion is not as much as people imagine, but is much more than that and countless.
There is a jade mine in the Nanwang Mansion, and not only is one jade mine, but most of it is sold even though the master used a lot of jade.
This is an amazing asset, not to mention that there are some other mines besides the Jade Mine.
Not to mention outsiders, even the master of Zhuyinsi, could not figure out how much money the Southern Prince Mansion had.
"Brush and ink." Li Chengkong said.
Yuan Ziyan hurriedly got up and went to the house to get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, grind the inkstone with jade hands, then spread the paper and picked up the pen with both hands and handed it to Li Chengkong.
