Chapter 51

Liu she sat upright, motionless, and said slowly, "the people's desire is naturally the people's desire. Looking at the history books, which emperor who lost the people's will will not die for a long time? Not to mention the current official, but the former Emperor alone is one of the 'leaders'..."

He smiled contemptuously, roughly described the "great achievements" of the former Emperor, deepened his impression with detailed examples, analyzed and demonstrated bit by bit, which would not make people feel boring and difficult, nor would it make people feel that he was talking empty.

"A person who is a king certainly depends on the power of the aristocratic family, but the biggest foundation is still the 'people'."

Although Liu she was born in a famous noble family, he was not optimistic about the prospect of the noble family, and even vaguely felt that he could not go for a long time.

Of course, in the current context, the influence of the gentry on the court is very huge, even covering up the sky.

"The first reason why the former Emperor would fail is that he offended all the gentry, but the core reason is still the loss of popular support. If not, how could the obedient king of Hejian rush into Yangcheng and put a sharp blade on the former Emperor's neck without encountering many obstacles?"

Hejian defers to Wang Wuma Jin, who is now the emperor sitting on the Dragon chair.

He was the first brother of a mother compatriot of the former Emperor, but the two brothers didn't care about family affection when they fought.

After the king ascended the throne, in order to calm the people's grievances, he even issued an order to give death to the former Emperor and pray for rain in spite of the dissuasion of all officials.

Jiang Pengji also had a rough understanding. She felt that the background of ancient times was somewhat inexplicably similar to her era.

In her time, there was no lack of famous nobles. Some aristocratic families had great power and even could influence the change of federal power.

But no matter how tossed, the master of the Federation is still the largest number of citizens. Aristocratic families and nobles are inseparable from those people. In this era, the meaning is similar. No matter how strong the gentry is, they can't go against the voice of the people all over the world!

Of course, some gentry have higher eyes than the top and think they can play with the situation in the world... This fool is a monkey.

Just thinking, Liu she looked at her gently, as if her dark and bright eyes were filled with a clear spring.

"You are the only child in your father's lap. Your family treats you so leniently that it will inevitably keep you blind. You don't know Mount Tai. You can only see prosperity in your eyes, but can't see deeper corruption... The word people's heart seems easy to write, but it's very difficult to really write well."

I saw him holding the pen with his scallion fingers, writing steadily, and dropping two huge words on a piece of bamboo paper, "people's will... If the word is boneless, but it's general empty talk, if the word is invisible, others will know the foundation at a glance... It's easy to write, but it's difficult to do it."

Liu she smiled calmly. As soon as she said this, Jiang Pengji's sight changed.

"What does that father mean?"

Liu she threw away the bamboo slips and said, "if you look at it with your own eyes and understand it yourself, you will know more about the content in the book. Do you know the price outside, the needs of people's livelihood, field farming... Why do people who have left their hometown bear the pain to sell their children..."

If you can't understand everything the people need, how can you really consider it for them?

We can't even do this, let alone win the hearts of the people.

If you are betrayed for this reason and then stabbed in the back, it is too oppressive.

However, Jiang Pengji had another doubt in her heart. He said... Is Liu Lanting the only child under his knee?

So what happened to the two sons and daughters in the backyard?

Liu she's clear voice was particularly heavy under the flickering candle light in the study, as if she had hidden some poison and medicine that could kill people.

Jiang Pengji also felt it... Today's "father son topic" is really dangerous.

"Lan Ting, would you like to hear some interesting stories about my father when he was in office?"

Liu she wisely stopped talking and chose to let Jiang Pengji think for herself. What he said is not only related to the way of being a king, but also closely related to the way of being an official. How can officials who do not understand the needs of people's livelihood really consider them?

He didn't care which direction his daughter was thinking. The difference was just the size of her inner wildness.

Yo, there are bedtime stories to listen to.

Jiang Pengji cheered up, "of course I want to hear it."

Therefore, Liu she used a calm and cool voice to tell about his experience as an official in those places. The content is very wide, from the smallest trivial things to the sinister back house struggle, to the various forms of the market and official strife. It sounds very frequent, but it is actually quite soul stirring.

No matter how poor the place is, there is no shortage of local snakes. As a sheriff from other places, he can't manage a county well without some means. In the most difficult times, it was even united by the local small gentry and squires, and almost became a puppet.

There are policies at the top and Countermeasures at the bottom. As Mrs. butterfly said, the scenery of Liu she is under the skin of Jiyue people, but she is full of black water.

If the front is not good, then the side, regardless of whether his means are light or not, it's just useful. Who doesn't have any privacy in his house? Whose hands are completely clean? Who can be really peaceful and generous when facing a room full of concubines and concubines? He is like a hunting snake, calmly waiting for prey to relax his vigilance.

Dormant for a few months, they still cleaned up the small gentry whose eyes were higher than the top one by one.

His way of telling is not old-fashioned, even some unspeakable humor, but it is far from his immortal image.

After hearing this, Jiang Pengji had to admit that she was more curious about the outside world and had a specific impression in her mind, rather than categorizing everything in this era as "the product of backwardness and ignorance in ancient times".

Although Liu she was worried that Jiang Pengji would become an innocent family child who didn't know the world, she would make such a mistake, but it was also wrong.

She said solemnly, "I understand what my father means."

"Just understand." Liu she liked this move recently. He took a small box from his side, pulled it out, and took out the booklet, "you're twelve this year, and in two years, you'll be old enough to start a family..."

Jiang Pengji's nerves in the corners of her mouth are pumping out uncontrollably. She is 12 years old... She will be 14 in two years. Should she start a family and start a business?

Suddenly, she felt that in her last life, those guys who were still studying hard in Colleges and universities were like old giant babies.

"What is this?" She took the pamphlet from Liu she and opened it carefully. She looked around and almost didn't understand it.

"The dowry list your mother left you. The one above is hers and the one below is slowly added for your father over the years." Liu she said and smiled, "of course, there are other arrangements for your marriage. This list... Is not a dowry."

He didn't intend to marry his daughter from beginning to end. If so, there would be no need to hide the death of his second son many years ago.

Jiang Pengji really doesn't understand the prices of this era, but she feels a lot when she looks at the dense books above!

His eyes fell to the end and his eyebrows jumped when he saw the land products, rice grain and horse business inside.
