ught that since we found this person, we couldn’t just throw him away again. " 。Moreover, at that time, Young Mistress Ye pleaded with my Lord earnestly to take her in. She said she didn't want to ret...Quan Qingcheng was quite impressed with Ye Chu Lian, because Ye Chu Lian gave him an idea to blame the incident of "disturning the dragon on New Year's Day" on the Guiyue country, causing all the losses and making Guiyue country compensate for everything.

How could this brain be so smart That deceased Moon Envoy is too unlucky. Even after death, he has to take the blame, even a big one! If there were ghosts around and heard this, they'd probably jump out of their graves!However, he also hesitated: "I just don't know if the Moon Kingdom will acknowledge this. What if they don't That would be pretty embarrassing." 。When I first ascended the throne, disasters struck. What if I angered the Moon God with my actions and caused a war In the past, Northern Qi relied on the two great generals of the Ye family. Now, although the military power has been redistributed, I don't believe that the new generals can immediately lead troops into battle against Northern Qi. 。"Moreover," he hesitated, unwilling to admit it, "not to mention that I am modest and shy by nature. I have to consider the plight of my people, as well as provide for the army's expenses. It is truly a heavy burden." 。"Night Chu Lian analyzed for him, “Gui Yue shouldn't refuse, right After all, the envoy made the Imperial Venerable angry enough to take action himself. The Imperial Venerable is a god, if even a god gets angry, wouldn't the old master be even angrier Moreover, although there have been cases of upheaval in Bei Qi over the past few decades, I haven't heard of any reaching Kyoto.” 。Kyoto is a treasure land, as historical records show. When Emperor Shengzu founded the country and established its capital, he commissioned an astrologer to select the site, which was finally chosen from Lin'an. 。Lin'an City hasn't experienced a major disaster for over four hundred years. Why, after the arrival of the envoy from Guiyue, did a disaster occur Your Majesty, look! There was chaos at the New Year's Eve banquet, and early this morning, the earth shook violently. Guiyue has every reason to deny it, doesn't it"

Ye Chulian had a point, "As for war, Your Majesty is probably overthinking it" 。Our side has a new emperor just ascended the throne, and so does Gu Yue! Moreover, their new emperor spent many years as a hostage in Bei Qi. It seems that controlling the affairs of Gu Yue's government will be more challenging. 。So Your Majesty can rest assured, this battle will not break out. 。" Qingcheng was in a good mood. "Chu Lian, I never expected that you, as the illegitimate daughter of a first-rank general's mansion, would have such insight. It really surprised me." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。"

Ye Chu'lian felt a little embarrassed, "I have never had anyone willing to discipline me, so when I have free time, I like to read miscellaneous books " 。Later, I felt that just looking at it wasn't very meaningful, so I analyzed it while watching. 。Anyway, it's just to keep myself entertained. If the Emperor finds my words reasonable, he might consider them; if not, then just think of me as Chu Lian amusing you with idle chatter. After all, Fourth Sister brought me into the palace just to keep Your Majesty company. 。”

Quán Qīngchéng was overjoyed, “How is it useless Of course, it’s very useful! Chǔ Lián, you don't know, these days the emperor has been busy and chaotic. Although several of my older brothers come to the palace for discussions, they start arguing after a while, sometimes from morning to night. In the end, nothing concrete is decided>>> 。"I originally wanted to ask Lord Yun for help, but this isn't a small matter. Lord Yun has been busy stargazing and doesn't have any free time." 。"

Ye Chulian wanted to ask, wasn't there still a Regent King But before she could ask, she heard Quen Cheng say: "Chulian, your analysis really helped me solve a major problem. I, as the ruler, was so caught up in it that I forgot that the new emperor of Gu Yue used to be a hostage from Bei Qi" 。This way it's much easier. As long as Yue doesn't have the ability to wage war, we can settle this score with them properly. 。Alas, the national treasury is empty, and now we face such a great disaster. Everyone is asking me for money, but where can I find it 。" Night Chu Lian was stunned, "The treasury is out of silver" 。"Qian Qingcheng didn't hide it from her, "It's not that there isn't any at all, it's just a little..." 。Facing this land's upheaval, the national treasury has been emptied. While it is enough to meet the current needs, what about after the treasure is spent A nation always needs funds for many purposes; I cannot disregard future considerations or risk war due to an immature decision. 。That's why, your analysis is really good. 。"Why is there so little silver in the national treasury" Ye Chulian was puzzled. In her impression, Bei Qi had always been a prosperous state! She couldn't feel it being poor. 。"I only recently learned that the national treasury was running low. My father suddenly passed away, and for all those years before, I was a mute who didn't care about state affairs. So I had no idea how my father managed to rule or how the Ministry of Finance spent the money." 。

Only when I suddenly took over did I realize that I was a poor emperor.

“ Wu Fei took over the conversation: “This old servant once served the former emperor and knows some things...” 。The late emperor had been seriously ill for several years. During those years, Empress Dowager Li and the Sixth Prince administered the government, while the late emperor did not interfere. I'm afraid only they knew where the treasury silver went. 。“I'm very frustrated,” Quan Qingcheng said, “as I haven't ascended the throne yet, my words lack authority. If I ask them for information, they won't be truthful and will just give me superficial answers.” 。"Finally, Ye Chulian had the chance to voice her previous question: “Where is the Regent King Why isn't he coming out to assist in ruling during this time”Quan Qingcheng told her, “The Regent King was injured. When the earth dragon turned over, the entire palace was fine, but the banquet hall was struck by the earthquake.” 。At that time, he was kneeling outside the palace and was directly knocked to the ground, injuring his bones and muscles. So this stall could only be chosen by me myself. 。"

Ye Chu Lian suddenly understood. Although she didn't know why the Regent King was kneeling outside the banquet hall, it wasn't something she should concern herself with. She simply said: "In that case, this is a good opportunity" >>> 。If the Emperor could handle such a major affair so smoothly, it would be the perfect opportunity to prove to everyone that he could be a good emperor even without the Regent King. 。"Then what use is a Regent" Power Qingcheng hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is that so"Ye Chulian nodded firmly. "It must be so!"Power Qingcheng didn't have much confidence, "But how can we make this happen smoothly How can we make people feel that without the Regent, I can also handle state affairs well Chu Lian, you are smart, think about it for me..." 。“Think about it yourself, Your Majesty. You're not stupid, and you need to be able to handle matters of state like this!Looking at Quan Qingcheng these past few days, his face is gaunt, his eyes are sunken... he looks a bit pitiful.” 。Just like Qu Qingcheng, he had been a mute for sixteen years. National affairs had never reached his ears, and the previous emperor hadn't mentioned them to him once, as if he didn't have this son at all. 。To suddenly elevate a neglected son to the position of emperor, unless that son were a god, he would be incapable of immediately becoming particularly capable. 。 This young emperor has already made it this far, which is not easy. We can't demand too much from him at once; we need to give him time to improve. 。This was the second time that Lady Wu, the fifth sister of the Ye family, had spoken with the emperor in the Hall of Immortals. She offered advice to the emperor. 。He listened attentively and found that the Fifth Sister was indeed intelligent. She could always get to the point, though she couldn't handle major affairs. However, her work perfectly filled the gaps in the emperor's thoughts, which was truly excellent. 。Then Wu Fu didn't say anything. Ye Chu Lian pondered for a while before opening her mouth again: "I once read a storybook, which said that whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world. As long as the people are on your side, it is destiny." 。So I think, the Emperor should start with the common people, smoothing things over with them. Naturally, the officials in court would then follow suit and there wouldn't be much trouble. 。Even so, she could rebut each point just like my fourth elder sister, and even put a label of "lazy good-for-nothing" on the officials' households in the inner city. 。"Even when going to the toilet at night, whether it's someone named Quingcheng or Wu, they really can't be defied." 。Night Chu Lian recalled the conversation she had with her Fourth Sister at the mansion earlier, and relayed it to Quan Qingcheng. Finally, she concluded: "Actually, my Fourth Sister has already done most of the work for the Emperor regarding matters of the people's heart." 。Even people within the inner city, those with official residences ranking above third rank, understood that the fourth sister had done a good deed. Only the common folk remained confused and oblivious, but even they became somewhat enlightened after being reprimanded. Therefore, the emperor's pressure was not as great as it seemed. 。“ Quan Qingcheng was so touched he almost cried, constantly muttering: “Sister Wenyan, how kind you are, how kind you are!” Wu Fu also thought that Ye Si was really great. Not only did she stand up for the emperor, but most importantly, she actually had the ability 。Look at what people analyze -- throughout history, there have always been uprisings from the bottom. The upper class either engages in literary disputes, schemes to seize power, or princes vying for the throne. 。This analysis of the political situation is too thorough! Is this still a fifteen-year-old girl She's even more cunning than that old fox, the Regent. 。 As expected of the young lady favored by the Emperor, she is truly one of a kind! It's a pity that the Emperor was a step too late. If they had developed their relationship further, with Night Fourth Sister as Empress, Northern Qi would have undoubtedly ushered in an unprecedented era of prosperity! Quan Qingcheng was still moved: "Sister, how can I repay your kindness" Night Chu Lian said: "I think Fourth Sister doesn't need the Emperor to repay her anything. Because he calls her sister, she can't just ignore him. She has to fulfill her duty as a sister." 。So Your Majesty, as you can see, the groundwork has been laid well. Now it's up to you how you proceed from here. 。"

Quan Qingcheng sat at his desk, pen in hand—tax relief, house construction, grain distribution... "Just these things could drain the treasury. Though they are what the court should do, I still can't bring myself to do it." 。"

Ye Chu'lian pondered for a moment, then said, "Why don't we do something that doesn't cost silver I am the illegitimate daughter of the Ye family and I don't have much experience. I only know what I've read in books, so if the Emperor thinks it's good, he can do it. If not, just pretend I never said anything>>> 。"

Quan Qingcheng nodded, "I understand, just watch, we'll sum it up together" 。"Just now, the Emperor wrote down those few points which must be done. But in fact, we all know that these are the obligations of the court. Ensuring peace and prosperity for the people is the most basic way to govern a country. There's nothing special about it. Every emperor has done this." 。We all know this, and the people certainly do as well. 。So, if the Emperor hopes to win the hearts of the people with these few points, I'm afraid it won't work. He'll have to find another way...Qingyun thought of this, he smiled. After laughing, he began to feel uneasy again. 。He's blinking his right eyelid, isn't that a sign of disaster But what kind of disaster has happened recentlyTwenty...
