eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 461
In June, the capital already had some enthusiasm.

Wei Ningbo published the memorial, describing the situation of the division of land in Wanping and Daxing counties. After Zhu Hou took care of it, he decided to go out for a tour of the palace.

Because of his various political measures, the most beneficial thing for the common people is to divide the land.This is also the move that he cares about the most and has the most sense of accomplishment.

Of course, it is also the most tolerant of people to cheat and lie, not to mention [-]%, at least [-]% or [-]% should be fine.

However, it is not that simple for the emperor to go out of the palace. In the past, it was fine for him to walk around the imperial city, but he really went to the countryside...

However, after thinking about it, the current court is no longer the original court. He has done so many reliable things, so the world will not be in chaos after doing such a thing, right?
After thinking about it like this, the thought in my heart couldn't be restrained no matter what.

There are people like Liu Jin beside Piansheng, and he spares no effort to satisfy the emperor's wishes.

So there is still such a scene of Zhu Houzhao wearing a light blue undress and long sleeves, traveling in a carriage.In the hot summer, he curled his hair and wrapped it in a square scarf.Because he was afraid of the heat, he still held a fan in his hand.

After leaving the city where there were few people, Zhu Houzhao didn't want to take a horse-drawn carriage anymore, because there was no shock-absorbing device at this time, and the road was uneven, so it would be more comfortable to ride a horse.

Accompanying him on the left was Wei Ningbo, and on the right was Xu Guan, commander of the Shenwu Guard. Behind them were about ten soldiers of the Shenwu Guard, Liu Jin and Zhang Yong were also present.

By June, the farmland was already golden. Zhu Houzhao checked along the way, and found that the wheat in the field was shorter than he remembered, and the stems were thinner.

But the field ridges are pretty much the same. It’s probably the busy season of farming. Not only are there men in the fields, but there are actually not many women. There are also children who are half the height of a person working.

Everywhere Zhu Houzhao went, he would ask Zhang Yong to ask whether it was a self-cultivator or someone else's land that was rented out. If it was only distributed this year, how much was distributed and how was it distributed at that time, etc.

Wei Ningbo said: "According to His Majesty's will, for more than a month, many local ministers in Daxing and Wanping have traveled all over the place. The people's life can't be said to be rich, after all, the allocated fields have not even harvested a season of wheat. But right now, everything is golden, this year's harvest is good, and life will be easier in the future."

Zhu Houzhao asked: "Is there no one where the corrupt officials and subordinates below privately divided the imperial farmland?"

"I dare not say that there is no one, but His Majesty has changed prefects in various places, and sent inspection teams to make rounds of inspections, and factory guards can be seen everywhere, so this kind of private appropriation of Zhuangtian should be relatively rare."

"The people who are sent down may collude with the local people. If they make up a lie, no one will know. I know too well what they can do. The imperial court's Zhuangtian is a big piece of fat. It is impossible for someone not to stretch out his hand. Of course, I focus on prevention, and I believe there are some effects."

Liu Jin seemed to be talking about herself, "Your Majesty, the slaves have already issued repeated orders. If the people in Dongchang dare to mess around behind the back of the palace, it will be the result of dismemberment!"

"Understood, it's not that I don't believe you." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand, and he didn't worry about it anymore. Sometimes it is difficult to achieve a perfect state. With so many means of prevention, he can achieve [-] to [-]% of the effect. The conflict between people and land will also be greatly alleviated.

Coupled with the manpower needed by the imperial court to build library gardens and roads, basically the conditions for an uprising were not met.

However, it is impossible for an agricultural society to absorb all the labor force.

This cannot be ignored and forced blindly.

The countryside at this time has a strong primitive flavor, and there are no wires erected in the sky. Even in some villages, there are not many brick buildings, but there are many scalpers.

Most of the roads under our feet are small roads, which are not deliberately built, or they become roads after walking, so the width is different, and the turns are random.Lu met some people who were harvesting wheat, which made him a little relieved.

Ordinary people can see him too, but people are afraid of officials, and many people in their group are afraid when they see him, and they will basically stay away.

There are those unreasonable children of the big family who may beat them up if they suddenly lose their temper. As an ordinary person, this is simply impossible, and it must be as far away as possible.

After this piece of farmland, I entered a piece of woods. Because I could hear the sound of water, I probably knew that I had to cross the river.

There is a stone arch bridge over the river. I don't know when it was built. It feels like it has been around for some years.

In the shadow of the dense forest, Zhu Houzhao felt much cooler in an instant.

After crossing the stone arch bridge, many families can be seen in the distance on the right hand side, which may belong to another village. The fields here are much more regular than those there. There are large and large areas, which are really the fields of hope.

Wei Ningbo said: "Originally this area was Huangzhuang. Fortunately, His Majesty loves the people like a son. Now it is distributed to more than 300 families here for cultivation."

Zhu Hou illuminated Bai, the high-quality fertile fields by the river were all cultivated together in the past, so they were connected together.

"It belongs to the common people who live there." He pointed to the front left, where there were many houses scattered in an orderly manner, not only that, there seemed to be a pavilion.

The pavilion is on the edge of the woods, built in the grass, and a road at the exit connects the village and the farmland, probably for people to rest.

At this time, there was a woman in beige clothes sitting inside.

Wei Ningbo said: "Your Majesty has made a decree for your sister to see. Today, I made my own decision and asked her to wait here."

"Oh." Zhu Houzhao nodded suddenly, "Then let's go, see you."

Wang Zhijing was reminded by her maidservant that she also knew that someone was coming from behind, because she was the emperor, so she didn't dare to push her too hard, so she immediately stood up, walked out of the pavilion, and stood by the roadside.The index fingers are crossed and placed in front of the lower abdomen, the eyes are slightly downward, and it is basic etiquette not to look directly at the emperor.

When footsteps appeared in her sight, she turned around and knelt down, "See Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

In fact, Zhu Houzhao had been looking at her just now, but she lowered her head slightly, and she couldn't see it clearly. She only felt that his hands were thin and white, his profile was flawless, and his nose was straight.

He thought in his heart that Wang Yue gave birth to a good granddaughter.

When she really stood in front of her, she felt that she had a slender figure, with only one waist, and she had a ladylike temperament.

"Go, I just happened to go inside and have a rest."

Liu Jin took the first step, went into the pavilion and wiped down the stone benches and tables with his sleeves before asking the emperor to sit down.

Xu Guan, the commander, only led the people to stand around the perimeter.

"Sit down. I have something to ask you brothers and sisters."

"Yes."

In fact, just for a while, Wang Zhi was also looking at the emperor.The emperor was stronger than he thought.She thought that the people raised in the deep palace would be somewhat weak, but in fact, the emperor she saw was tall and straight, with broad shoulders and a strong face, and even a trace of determination on his face.

Of course, young is young, not even growing a beard.

Fanning the folding fan, Zhu Houzhao asked, "Uncle Weining, this must be the expert behind you."
