The ancestor of the apocalypse is so cool after being reborn!

Chapter 273 Conflict
"he?"

If Li Jingfu remembers correctly, the Jingzhou governor showed goodwill to him. It is precisely because of this that Yuan Rujiang is still one of the few frontier officials who is both the governor of a state and in charge of the army of a place.

For a feudal official with military and political control, the Queen actually wanted him to go to Beijing and serve as Minister of the Sixth Ministry. Is her purpose really to repay Yuan Rujiang's support?Or is it to consolidate military power and tighten centralization of power?
Xia Jing noticed his suspicious gaze, and pushed the lotus root powder bowl aside with a calm expression. She took the handkerchief from the maid's hand and wiped the corners of her mouth, "Speaking of it, the Yuan family and our royal family are still related by marriage. I don't know what life was like when Yuzhu married. How's it going?"

Li Jingfu thought of Li Yuzhu's appearance as a twenty-year-old girl and said nonchalantly: "She is my granddaughter. How dare the Yuan family treat her badly?"

Xia Jing listened to his confident words and shook her head slightly: "That boy Yuan Rongcheng is very energetic, ruffian and bad, and he can be gentle to women. His character is very important to us elders. Come on, it’s very lovable. It’s also fatally attractive to little girls. This is an advantage and a disadvantage. A man who is philanthropic is like a butterfly, he likes to play with women! If Yuzhu can look away from this, he can live a happy life! "

As long as the throne is still in their hands, the Yuan family will not dare to bully her too much!

After hearing her remarks, Li Jingfu said smoothly: "It is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines. What can't she think of?"

It was the first time Xia Jing heard this from Li Jingfu, and it was also the first time he talked about the issue of three wives and four concubines. She was slightly stunned after hearing this, glanced at him lightly, and agreed: "For you It is indeed commonplace and not worth making a fuss about!"

As soon as he said what he just said, Li Jingfu regretted it, "Hey, I was so quick to talk, but I suddenly let it slip. Don't be angry! I"

"What I just said does not represent what I mean. What I said is what most men think in this era, and it does not represent me! Haha, it does not represent me!"

Xia Jing sighed in her heart: "Stop explaining, explaining is equivalent to covering up. You don't even know this?"

"."Li Jingfu.

"Okay, let's get back to the business!" Xia Jing saw that he looked aggrieved as if he had been bullied, and rolled her eyes at him: "Now the civil servants in the court have been suppressed by you. Reforming the military household registration is only the first step. It will gradually improve in the future. It will be popularized throughout the country. When the problem of military households is solved and Dayu becomes rich, all officials who work for the court will receive pensions when they reach retirement age. You can reveal this to the officials a little bit, so as not to let them know. Make trouble again!”

"All officials of Dayu will receive pensions when they retire!" Li Jingfu covered his chest this time, obviously frightened by the benefits that Xia Jing just opened his mouth to offer.

Xia Jing raised her eyebrows at him, "My goal is to let Dayu's army travel to every corner of the world, collect the world's wealth, and let Dayu's people have someone to rely on and have something to support them in their old age. Whether they are civil servants or generals, The soldiers no longer have any worries and can concentrate more on serving the court and contribute to the prosperity of Dayu."

After saying that, Xia Jing asked in a seductive tone: "Your Majesty, you also hope to see Dayu's flag planted in every corner of the world during your lifetime, right?"

Li Jingfu's hand was still covering his chest. He looked into Xia Jing's autumn-like eyes and couldn't help but nodded: "Yes!"

"As long as you are so ambitious, then we must actively reform to make Dayu develop better and better. The shipyards in Lingnan and Yangzhou are already speeding up the production of sea-going ships. When the basic framework of Dayu is established, all shipyards should be able to Build dozens of sea ships."

Facing the cake drawn by Xia Jing, Li Jingfu was damn tempted, "Let's not talk about the overseas affairs. The reform you mentioned, even if the border customs is used as a pilot, the amount of money distributed every month is considerable, from the Ministry of Household Affairs to the Ministry of War. Then send it to the border and go through several yamen, aren't you afraid that someone will reach out to these military pay?"

Xia Jing's eyes showed helplessness. This problem is unavoidable. At present, we can only send people to supervise and inspect. In the future, with the development of society, Dayu's banks will definitely have to be supervised, and the imperial court will establish the Dayu Central Bank. The currency is also issued uniformly.

It’s just that at present, Dayu is short of talents, and all walks of life are short of talents.

There is a shortage of bank staff, a shortage of talents in the Ministry of Railways, and technical personnel in the textile industry are also in urgent need.

Cement factories and textile factories want to expand, and Xia Jing also wants to build rolling mills and smelting plants, so that iron and steelmaking can be separated from the War and War Bureau and build independent factories. These industries all need technical personnel.

This year, a lot of sugar beets have been planted in the north. Xia Jing also wants to build a sugar factory in the Gyeonggi area, which also requires talents.

Xia Jing told Li Jingfu about the current urgent need for talents in all walks of life. It was more than a little difficult to manage Dayu well.

Li Jingfu pointed out the window, "Didn't you build an engineering college at the foot of the Imperial College?"

"The College of Engineering has just started enrolling students this year. Moreover, even if they succeed in their studies in a few years, these students will still be a drop in the bucket for the employment field."

If you want to govern a country well, there are so many political affairs. Li Jingfu has a headache just listening to it. "Well, Queen. My head hurts a little. Let's go back and rest for a while. If there is anything we can discuss next time!"

Xia Jing watched helplessly as Li Jingfu fled with Anu. She stood up and stretched, "Well! Who in this world can lie down with peace of mind? You have to pay before you can lie down."

After that, she turned around and said to Hongmei: "The weather is good today. Let's go see how the crops in the experimental field are growing?"

It was said to be a test field, but in fact Xia Jing felt that the palace was too empty, so she asked people to clear out all the flower beds in the vacant courtyard and plant potatoes, sweet potatoes, vegetables and other crops, so as to save land.

Potatoes and sweet potatoes have been vigorously promoted in the north this year. Sweet potatoes have been planted around normal fields, and potatoes have even been planted on some slopes. It can be said that everyone is planting every opportunity. If nothing goes wrong, the food supply in the north should be large this year. Good harvest.

With everyone struggling like this for a year, Dayu should be able to recover from the famine.

The people recovered from the famine. According to the ancient people's idea that more children will bring happiness, it is expected that Dayu will face another massive population multiplication.

After three years of disasters, several years of civil strife and invasion by foreign enemies, Dayu's population was in urgent need of growth and he was happy to see the results.

However, population growth will face another problem, that is, how to ensure the safety of mothers and children. Pregnant women must give birth safely, and babies must grow up safely. Medical care plays a leading role in this.

However, Dayu's current medical conditions are not yet at the point where everyone can seek medical treatment, so a medical school should also be built to train medical talents for Dayu as soon as possible.

You can't think about these things. Just thinking about it will bring you thousands of thoughts. Xia Jing shook her head and followed the maids around the imperial garden to the west harem.

"Mother, where are you going?"

Concubine Xian walked down from the pavilion with a group of female relatives. She glanced at Xia Jing's clothes and smiled at her.

Xia Jing originally wanted to go around the imperial garden, but she didn't expect to meet the women from Li Jingfu's harem here. She looked at a group of orioles and swallows, all dressed up in colorful clothes, which was really dazzling in the sunshine.

Walking in the front was Concubine Xian, the former Aunt Wang.Yes, in today's harem, apart from her as the queen, Aunt Wang is the oldest and one of the emperor's four concubines.

Of course, Li Jingfu was not canonized for the other three concubines, which means that except for the eldest queen and her second eldest daughter in the harem.

Xia Jing stopped, stood under the shade of a tree, squinted her eyes slightly and smiled: "It is rare for a good concubine to have leisure time. She is here with her family members to enjoy flowers and drink tea, but I am here to disturb you."

"Your Majesty's words are serious." Concubine Xian glanced at the people following her: "We are no more capable than your Majesty. Your Majesty has many things to do, so we can only pass the boring time by admiring flowers and drinking tea."

Xia Jing looked at the female family members coming with a half-smile.Instead, she quickly stepped forward and saluted Xia Jing: "I have seen my concubine, Mrs. Chen. May your concubine be blessed!"

Li Chengxian reluctantly stepped forward with the help of the maid, and slightly bent her knees: "Chengxian has met the queen mother."

The other beauties and eunuchs all knelt down to pay their respects. Xia Jing waved to them: "Everyone, please get up."

Then he looked at Li Chengxian and saw the dark shadows in her eye sockets, "Hey, why is our Princess of Dayu so haggard? Could it be that she was bullied in the Changping Marquis Mansion? Then she came to the palace to find your father to make decisions for you?"

After hearing her words, Li Chengxian's face instantly darkened, and she said sarcastically: "Why don't you, mother, not see me like this? You have been looking forward to me being bullied at my husband's house all day long. Are you happy if I am bullied?"

Xia Jing smelled the smell of gunpowder in the air and was not in a hurry to farm at the moment.Instead, without squinting his eyes, he walked to the pavilion in front and sat down.

She looked around and felt the breeze blowing on her face, "I have been in the harem for so long, but I didn't know that this is a good place to enjoy flowers and enjoy the cool air."

As she said that, Xia Jing looked at the people who were following her, "You better know how to enjoy it."

Thinking about it now, her heart feels a little sour, remembering that when she was first reborn, her wish was to enjoy life in a world without zombies or mutated animals and plants.

Over the past few years, she seems to have never stopped and is busy every day.

When I first arrived, I was busy escaping from famine, but when I arrived in Lingnan, I had to work hard to survive.

Later, there was great chaos in the world. For the sake of the common people in the world, an army was organized to fight back.

Later, it seemed that I was trapped in the palace with various plans, and was slowly buried in the endless political affairs.

The more power you have in your hands, the more care you will take. Although the person in power can control the world, he is really the most tired person in the world.

Tired of heart, tired of body, tired of mind and body.

"The Queen Mother is talking as if you are not allowed to come to the imperial garden. You are the biggest in the harem, who can stop you if you want to come?" Li Chengxian's tone was sour. She is a dignified Princess of Yu, but she cannot enter the palace often. .

Why wasn't her father the emperor when she was a child?

Otherwise, she could grow up in the palace and never have to envy her cousins.

Xia Jing glanced at her and said, "Of course I am the biggest in this harem, and I can come to the Imperial Garden whenever I want, but you are different. If you want to enter the palace, you have to hand over the sign first, right? Your father and I don't agree in the palace, so why don't you enter?" Not coming!"

"You" Li Chengxian was furious. Entering the palace to hand over the sign was what made her most impatient. She had also begged her father before, but for the safety of the palace, his father did not allow her to enter and exit at will.

Xia Jing didn't have the time to argue with her here, so she pointed to the female relatives standing aside, "I was going to go to the West Harem to weed weeds today. Since we met here, you guys have nothing to do anyway, so follow me to the West Harem." Let’s weed the harem!”

"." The female relatives looked down at their slender jade fingers, wanting to cry without tears.

"Mother!"

Li Chengxian stood at the exit of the pavilion and stopped everyone.

The female relatives looked at each other and silently took a few steps back, leaving the main venue to their mother and daughter.

Xia Jing's face darkened, and her eyes stared at her calmly: "What? You're not done with the unreasonable troubles, are you?"

Being stared at by such calm eyes, Li Chengxian's heart trembled involuntarily, and her aura weakened, "I came to the palace today to pay my respects to my father, the Queen, and the Queen. I stopped by to ask about my dowry in Gaolong. When will the farm be returned to me?"

Xia Jing looked at Concubine Xian in bewilderment and asked, "Gao Long, does she have a dowry? I remember that when the imperial court moved south, all the properties in the Gyeonggi area were robbed by soldiers and horses from Beidi."

Li Chengxian's voice was choked with sobs: "At that time, there was no way for the imperial court to move south. Now that the capital has been recovered, naturally my dowry must be returned!"

Xia Jing clicked her tongue: "Why didn't you snatch it from Beidi's hand then? What's the use of crying in front of me now? You thought I would snatch it from Beidi's hand after a few drops of crocodile tears. Will I give you the property I got back?"

To give it to Li Chengxian, Xia Jing might as well give it to a hero who has made great achievements in fighting the enemy. This can also encourage the soldiers to fight the enemy more bravely.If you give it to her, it will be like a meat bun that will never come back, and she will not be grateful.

Li Chengxian didn't expect that the mother of a country could be such a rogue, and her face turned red with anger: "Is the queen so shameless, so she takes the dowry of the eldest princess?"

Xia Jing stood up suddenly, took two steps forward and slapped him away.

"Snapped!"

Li Chengxian's face was slapped sideways, and her eyesight went black with stars appearing. It took a while for her vision to recover, which showed how hard the slap was.

She turned back and glared at Xia Jing: "You hit me! How dare you hit me! Aren't you afraid that my father will find out and throw you into the cold palace?"

Xia Jing shook her painful hand and snorted coldly: "If your father knew that you dared to yell in front of me, I would not punish you by kneeling down for three days. The ancestral hall would treat you kindly! Besides, if your father supports you You, you won’t have the chance to come before me and show off the eldest princess’s record!”

After hearing this, Concubine Xian, who had been standing nearby, pressed the corners of her mouth with a brocade handkerchief to hide her smile.

Li Chengxian entered the palace this time mainly because she wanted to get back her original dowry farm from Xia Jing.

She just told Li Jingfu about this matter. Li Jingfu considered that all the Gyeonggi industry was in Xia Jing's name and he didn't dare to make the decision without permission, so he declined her.

The original intention was to let her go back first and wait for him to discuss it with Xia Jing. It would be best if she could get it back. If that didn't work, he would pay for it and then give it to her.

But when Li Chengxian met Xia Jing, she couldn't wait to speak on her own in the Royal Garden.

She also made rude remarks, how could Xia Jing follow her.
