Princess of the auxiliary country

"Come from the capital?"

Huo Junyao nodded and glanced at Xiao Chan beside him. Xiao Chan immediately understood and walked out.

Not long after, Xiaochan hurried back and stammered, "Miss, the emperor. The emperor is here."

"emperor?"

Huo Junyao was so shocked that she stood up.

She thought to herself that if the emperor didn't stay well in the palace, why would he come here to her?

And it's still early in the morning. Doesn't he have to go to court?

Although the Yu Dynasty had three days for one court and five days for one court, when not in court, there would be many memorials in various places, which would keep the emperor busy.

Soon, Huo Junyao arrived at the entrance of the villa to greet him.

"Why does your Majesty have time to come to your servant today?"

In the main courtyard of the villa, looking at Emperor Zhaowu sitting on the main seat, Huo Junyao directly asked the doubts in his heart.

To be honest, she really had nothing to communicate with the emperor, not because of any dissatisfaction in her heart, but more because she had nothing to say.

This is a generation gap, and she is just a well-behaved person who doesn't like to chat too much.

"Didn't I hear that Hou Xiaolong provoked you?"

"Come here and take a look. I have already dealt with that guy. He will be exiled to Lingnan and will never be allowed to return to the capital again."

"As for Wu Guogong, he was also dismissed from office."

Hearing this, Huo Junyao was a little surprised and thought to herself, isn't it said that Duke Wu is very favored by the emperor? And it seems that there is still life-saving grace for the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor.

How come you just dealt with it, yet you were so ruthless?

Exile to exile, dismissal from office?

Seemingly seeing the doubts in her heart, Emperor Zhaowu said with a smile: "This Duke Wu is not a good person. I have long wanted to deal with it. Speaking of which, I have to thank you for giving me this excuse."

At this point, Huo Junyao understood that what happened to him this time was just a pretext.

As for why Wu Guogong behaved like this, she had no interest in knowing it, except for the nonsense about bullying men and dominating women.

Your Majesty, aren’t they all like this? Especially since he has similar virtues to Hou Xiaolong.

"The people have dealt with it, but this Duke Wu is not a good person. I am worried that he will make some small moves in the future."

"I came here this time just to ask, do you still need any manpower? How about I arrange some for you?"

Hearing this, Huo Junyao smiled and shook his head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for reminding me. I understand your kindness. You have already approved two hundred guards. I have enough manpower here."

Although she is short of manpower, she is short of workers, not guards. Two hundred guards are enough.

Any more would be bad. Firstly, it would cause some people in the court to feel unbalanced. Secondly, raising people requires money. Although she has little financial resources now, she cannot afford to support so many people.

Of course, the most important point is that these people belong to Emperor Zhaowu, and it is very inconvenient to have them around him.

"That's it. Then if you need people, just ask me. If you have more, you can't. Two or three hundred people will still be fine."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Huo Junyao saluted again.

"Ahem, that Zhaode, there's no need to be so polite. I'm here this time for one more thing."

"If your Majesty has any orders, just tell me. I will definitely tell you everything."

She knew that the emperor would not come here this early in the morning just to tell her that he had dealt with Wu Guogong and his son.

It won't take long for this trivial matter to spread, and it won't be a big deal for the emperor to come to tell you in person.

"That's right. I've been thinking about the method you mentioned earlier about how to divide the land into a small land. I've also discussed it with Fang Qiao, your father and others."

"But I haven't been able to come up with a good implementation plan. I was thinking, since you proposed this method, do you have any solution here?" "That's what you said."

Huo Junyao suddenly realized that it was because of this.

But then, she became a little confused. Didn't her father ask her before?

She also gave some methods.

"Well, I have also thought about the method you told your father before. It is indeed very good, but you also know that this court matter cannot be reckless."

"."

Huo Junyao was speechless, but she didn't say anything.

After all, she is not very clear about these political matters, so naturally she cannot think about things in such a comprehensive way.

She is not a professional in this field, so to be able to come up with these things, to put it bluntly, she only relies on the soul memory of future generations.

It would be a joke if she really thought about everything.

But although she doesn't know much about these things, she still has some basic knowledge.

"My lord, besides this, there is another way, which is to hand over a whip."

Afterwards, she briefly introduced this whipping method based on some knowledge in her memory.

Emperor Zhaowu nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

"This is also a very good idea. Can you be more specific?"

"This... I only thought of so much. When I was living in the village, I often saw all kinds of government servants and came up with random thoughts. I don't know exactly how to do it."

Hearing this, Emperor Zhaowu nodded. Although he regretted that there was no specific method, he was also very satisfied.

After all, there is already a big framework, and he can discuss it with Fang Qiao and others to complete it after he returns.

It's not a big problem.

"Then how should we implement this policy so that it won't cause a huge backlash?"

"This servant girl does know a little bit. If you want to divide the land into acres, you must first know how much land our Yu Dynasty has."

"The previous ones definitely won't work. After all, most of them are the same figures from the previous dynasty. It's hard to say whether there is any concealment in this, or whether there has been any growth over the years."

Emperor Zhaowu nodded repeatedly.

This is true. He was a great contributor to the re-measurement of the land, and he inherited the world from the previous dynasty not long ago, so most of the data from the previous dynasty were used.

"First of all, the first thing to do is to measure the land. Doesn't the emperor just want to promote the cultivation of corn? Why take this opportunity to arrange for people to measure it."

As soon as he said this, Emperor Zhaowu's eyes lit up, this method was indeed possible.

The high yield of corn is known to everyone in the imperial court. If this is used as a raft, those people may relax some vigilance in order to get more seeds, so that they may really be able to find out some of the land.

"While measuring the land, you can also secretly pay attention to the situation of the gentry and gentry in various places to facilitate follow-up actions. Your Majesty should understand what I mean, right?"

"I understand."

The most troublesome thing is that the gentry and the gentry will not agree to the idea of ​​sharing the land with a small family. After all, it affects their interests.

In the past, they didn't have to pay taxes, but now they divide it into acres. They have so much land, how much they have to pay, it's up to them to be willing.

Huo Junyao's intention is very obvious, that is, to use this opportunity of measuring the land to privately investigate the inappropriate behavior of some gentry and gentry in various places.

At that time, it will be up to them whether they agree or not.
