Chapter 0384 Declaration

The palace was renovated from the original Governor's Office, and Ye Qing has not expanded it in the past two years. From the perspective of the palace, it is not spacious, but the decoration and regulations have been renovated, and the green brick flooring has been supervised.

And besides the Empress Dowager and the Princess, there were no other royal families, so it didn't seem crowded, and even made this palace appear empty. It also provided a group of young girls with clean family backgrounds for them to choose from.

Accompanied by his own troops, Ye Qing crossed a garden along the way. The sun shone brightly, creating a golden and magnificent landscape. After only a few steps, he felt a slight sweat on his back. At this moment, the crisp sound of the qin could be heard from afar, sometimes dripping cold springs, sometimes bursting bean bead plates

Ye Qing couldn't help but listen attentively and laugh, "This must be Wenji, so many voices without saying a word

With a clear smile, he arrived at the door and said, "I beg to see you

The palace maid quickly passed by, and Ye Qing went in. She saw the empress dowager listening quietly on the cloud bed, while not far away, a woman was sitting attentively playing the qin.

The maidens in the two chambers bowed silently when they saw Ye Qing come in. Cai Wenji was taken aback and stopped playing the qin to stand up and bow.

Let's all get up! "Ye Qing finished speaking and bowed again," I've seen the Empress Dowager

After a pause, she asked, "Is the Empress still satisfied with them

Not bad! "Said the Empress Dowager sitting on the cloud bed with a smile. Although these young girls were all graceful and graceful, their appearance was still inferior to that of the palace. That's all, she was not an emperor and didn't need any feminine charm.

Ke Yeqing suddenly provided 170 young girls, all of whom she could choose for herself, and ordered, "From now on, all the people waiting in the palace will be judged by the Empress Dowager

Many people do not understand this key, and the selection and punishment of those around them are the fundamental guarantee that mothers and daughters will not suffer from inexplicable "illnesses".

This made the empress dowager truly feel at ease, and she selected twenty that were very suitable for filling up in the small palace.

The treatment system in Yuzhou cannot be compared to the original, and the palace is even more temporary. I am very anxious, but I feel that there is no need to spend this unjustified money as I am about to go to Luoyang to punish Dong

Ye Qing said, then turned to Cai Wenji and asked, "Wenji, how is the collection of books in Wenyuan Pavilion

At this moment, upon closer inspection, the seventeen or eighteen year old girl, although still with oily skin, a hint of anger and laughter, bright eyes and white teeth, could not be considered stunning.

She is the daughter of Cai Yong, knowledgeable and capable of writing, as well as skilled in poetry, music, and rhythm. In history, she married Wei Zhongdao for the first time, but returned to her mother's home after her husband died without a son. Due to the invasion of the Xiongnu, she was abducted to the southern Xiongnu. What Ye Qing valued most was her great literary talent.

After changing her fate, Ye Qing appointed Cai Wenji to collect books during her first meeting.

Not only that, but also while the books have not been burned yet, Ye Qing sent people to collect various map scrolls vigorously and recorded them with Chuanlin Notes.

Upon seeing Marquis Ding's inquiry, Cai Wenji calmed down and said slowly, "I have four thousand volumes of books at home, and they have already been moved here. Marquis Ding is interested, and I have asked people to copy them more and more. However, for the other ten thousand volumes of books, please understand. The young woman is lonely and weak, and it may be difficult to complete them

Ye Qing listened with a smile and said, "Of course you can't do it alone. Please give the Empress Dowager an order to become a female official in the Wenyuan Pavilion. If you have this title, you will have subordinates and you can succeed

The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "This is a matter of literature, a good thing. I will fulfill it, and I will appoint you as the female official of the Wenyuan Pavilion - how many stones

Ye Qing bowed and said, "Let's set aside two hundred stones first

Cai Wenji glanced at the Empress Dowager and Ye Qing, remained silent, and only bowed in response.

Ye Qing looked around again and said, "I shouldn't have come here frequently. It's just that this palace is newly built, so I have to visit in person to avoid neglecting the Empress Dowager's daily life

Now that I am satisfied with the Empress Dowager, I can rest assured - but the banquet is coming, please move your carriage

Now the main hall can accommodate over a hundred people. The Empress Dowager entered through the main entrance and only came down in front of Danqian. At this time, there were more than a hundred civil and military officials, and they all bowed when they saw the Empress Dowager.

Then the music began to play, and everyone entered solemnly according to their rank.

Upon seeing this, Ye Qing smiled with satisfaction and said, "Let's have a banquet

Amidst the music, hundreds of officials expressed their gratitude. The Han Dynasty implemented a single banquet system, with hundreds of tables neatly arranged as they entered the hall. Ye Qing invited the Empress Dowager to join him and then sat down on his own.

In a moment, the banquet was filled with clinking glasses, with Xiao, Sheng, Di, and Qin playing. A young girl dressed in palace attire gracefully entered, and Ye Qing listened attentively, feeling that her level was decent.

I took a sip of wine and food, but it was great.

It can't be said that the steel industry, but some of the knowledge and skills left by Ye Qing can take the wine industry, textile industry, and iron industry to the next level. This not only strengthens the strength of Yuzhou, but also makes stir frying with iron pots different from contemporary steaming and cooking, making little princess Ning Ji very happy to eat.

But except for the inexperienced little princess, no one came to this banquet just to eat.

At this moment, Ye Qing sat on the side seat, bowing respectfully and not distancing himself from the Empress Dowager, speaking freely, and the atmosphere was harmonious... At least on the surface, this was enough politically.

Some kind-hearted people were delighted to see it.

Many courtiers specially recalled themselves from other places to prop up the scene. At first, they were a bit restrained, but as soon as they saw the lord sitting beside them, who was also a member of the imperial family, they felt much more comfortable - they saw the lord sitting upright, with his hair tied and his crown high, not angry but imposing, and more and more looking like someone in charge.

At this moment, Ye Qing looked down and saw a gathering of civil and military talents. Although many generals were not present, it seemed that many red and golden fortunes were diffuse and merged into one, which was quite impressive.

Ye Qing couldn't help but smile. Two years ago, before she left, a talented actor volunteered to join the system.

Although he left later, he had instructions left for his clone. Upon returning from his study tour, Guo Jia was immediately recruited by the "Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage".

Guo and Xi are both skilled in praising military art, especially Guo Jia, who is known as a "genius" and is more suitable as a military strategist in Ye Qing's opinion than Xu Shu of Lv Shangjing.

However, Lv Shangjing returned early to excel in government management and was placed under the governance of Runan County in western Henan.

Zhuge Jin was appointed as Chen Guoxiang, while his uncle Zhuge Xuan remained in the state capital as a civil servant.

The first person to attend the palace banquet this time, besides Lv Shangjing, is the second Xun. These two uncles and nephews are quite interesting. Xun Yu is 28 years old, six years younger than Xun You, but in terms of seniority, he is a clan uncle.

Xun Yu has been known as the "talent of Wang Zuo" since childhood. He is good at formulating policies and strategies, and is also a gentleman of great importance. On the other hand, Xun You is good at specific strategies and is good at hiding and protecting himself. These two uncles and nephews have complementary personalities and have broad friendships. They have close connections with outstanding scholars such as Zhong Yao, Chen Qun, Du Xi, Guo Jia, Xi Zhi Cai, and Zaozhi.

The Xun clan also had an extraordinary reputation in Yuzhou. The response of the two Xun uncles and nephews to the recruitment of the governor's office was a signal, which led to a large number of humble scholars from the clan joining Yingxi. The level of internal affairs improved several grades in these two years, and many plans that Ye Qing had previously been unable to implement were able to start experiments.

Thinking this way, Ye Qing's gaze fell on a middle-aged official present in the room.

His appearance is dark, and his temperament is the same as that of an old farmer - no one would have thought that based solely on his appearance, he would be the main official of the garrison, the garrison commander Zaozhi!

But it was this old farmer like person who had a reputation in the Central Plains and even the northern regions, and was constantly contested by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao over the past two years... In fact, in history, due to Xun Yu's effective recommendation, Cao Cao was the first to win this person's favor.

The "garrison system" advocated by Zaozhi in history encouraged cultivation for several years, resulting in the accumulation of millions of bushels of grain. He also ordered the establishment of field officials in each prefecture and county, with abundant resources available. As a result, troops had to be deployed from all directions, without sacrificing labor or transportation, and soldiers were able to defeat attacks and merge with other warlords

If evaluated based on this kind of merit, among the meritorious officials of the Cao family, Zaozhi should be ranked first and not inferior to the two Xunzi and one Guo.

Upon closer inspection, one can see that this person's entire body exudes a golden aura that never disperses, with threads connecting seamlessly without any hint of color. However, there is also a gray black aura outside.

I secretly sighed in my heart, "This person is in charge of farming, which is beneficial to the people and contributes to the country. But he really has a great aura, but he hates the powerful and fills the air with calamity

At this time, the couple kneels down together at the banquet, sharing a table and dining table. However, the utensils used for dining are separate, which is a very hygienic habit.

The Han system regards the right as the most respected, and Qianqian and Cao Baijing sit on either side of Ye Qing. At this moment, the young girl Zhenren first noticed her husband's gaze and secretly transmitted a message: "The governor can give up two Xuns and one Guo, because he relies on the alliance and the martial arts group, firmly believes that historical knowledge is enough to offset the advantage of the think tank, but he has always refused to give up this person... I think that even if they are people on the ground, they cannot produce food in the lower soil. Your husband seems to have taken a big advantage

Well, someone at the level of a logistics master is rare and indispensable in any era. Yingzhou has never produced such a person in recent years. Most of the officials in the Xiangtian Hall on the ground are under the command of this Zaozhi, just to let them learn from them. "Ye Qing poured her a glass of wine, and Xi Gui poured another glass for Cao Baijing.

With a smile, he glanced at Zaozhi and said, "However, this master's reform is too powerful. This is a system of farming and border defense formed by the integration of the national farming and warfare system of the Qin state and the policy of farming and border defense of Emperor Wu of Han. Strictly speaking, it is a state-owned vertical system that fundamentally seizes the interests of local tycoons. Even Xun Yu, an outstanding hero with exceptional vision, can only barely restrain his own family and cannot block this tide for his husband

Ye Qing implemented this plan himself, but dared not promote it all at once. He first allowed jujube trees to be tested in Xuchang for cultivation, and in the first year, he obtained one million bushels of grain. The grain production in Yingchuan County increased significantly, and the army was expanded to 50000.

Three days ago, he was appointed as the garrison commander for this great achievement, and at the same time, field officials were established in various prefectures and countries, with Zaozhi in charge of the state's garrison affairs.

My husband is best at farming, but surrounded by wolves, he still needs to create a living space. Otherwise, be careful of your wife and daughter's safety

Thank you for your kind words, Madam. "Ye Qing's mouth twitched as she immediately retaliated," By the way, how does it feel for you to turn over and become a legitimate wife

Hmph... Husband, can you sell well privately and dare to ask in front of your cousin? "Qianqian sneered at him.

Ye Qing couldn't help but smile.

As the banquet passed, Ye Qing stood up.

As soon as Ye Qing stood, more than a hundred people in the grand hall immediately fell silent, not even coughing up phlegm.

In a moment of silence, Ye Qing spoke with a resounding voice, "Emperor Gaozu went through life and death to establish a foundation, pacify the world with his martial arts, and shake off the decadence of a hundred years

There have been another two hundred years now. First, there were rebels and various smoke and dust, and then there were Dong bandits who killed the emperor. The Han dynasty collapsed. At this time, as a member of the Han royal family, how can we ignore it? Creating a peaceful and prosperous era is my wish

Fortunately, the Empress Dowager is in Xuchang and has entrusted the late emperor with his last wish. She has also decided to patrol the two provinces. The Empress Dowager is so sincere in her dedication to the world, and I am extremely grateful. I will lead my army to follow her. If there are any troublemakers or rebels, for the sake of the Han dynasty's strategy, why should I hesitate to launch a campaign and kill

The last sentence was filled with murderous intent, and although more than a hundred people were mentally prepared, they still listened to the change in color of the chestnut.
