Fortunate to know Qing peach noodles

Chapter 307
The emperor has always governed the world with benevolence, at the feet of the emperor, how could such a thing like using officials to oppress the people happen?In the past, Tolerance went to the edge of the city to collect taxes, and the common people delayed and owed taxes. Tolerances had to travel several times to get the tax paid. But now, as soon as Wei Cishu left, he showed his authority, forcibly broke into the house, and injured a pregnant woman. It is said that it caused the pregnant woman to give birth prematurely and narrowly escaped death.

Therefore, the dictionary of Wei has done things like this, and both parties are at fault.

In the end, Wei Cishu not only failed to make meritorious deeds, but suffered a whole body of crimes; those villagers were also punished, and were imprisoned for half a month. To serve as a warning to others.

When Yilan talked about this incident in the imperial hospital, she was still quite aggrieved: "It's obvious that the guard deserves it, the emperor punished all the villagers, but he didn't commit the crime of surrendering the guard, isn't this partial to the guard!"

Wei Qing glanced at her and said: "The emperor has already sent him to the door to be beaten for nothing, and now he is still lying on the bed, what else can he do?"

Yi Lan was puzzled: "Why did you send him home to be beaten?"

Wei Qing weighed the medicinal materials in his hand, and said casually: "The people on the edge of the city are so arrogant, and they didn't grow up in a day or two. It's not the first time they failed to pay taxes in arrears. In a benevolent government, it is impossible for officials to oppress the people, so what should we do?"

Yi Lan answered, "Then let the unscrupulous people bully the officials?"

Wei Qing said leisurely: "If that's the case, can't we justify dealing with troublesome people? We'll be locked up for ten days and a half months, and then we'll be whipped. Only half of our lives are left to go back. What kind of vigor is there? After this, we will kill the chickens to make an example to the monkeys. Who dares to be arrogant?"

Yilan suddenly realized: "So, the guard was sent as a target to beat them?"

"The wicked will be punished by the wicked, and everyone will not be wronged."

After finishing the medicine package, Wei Qing took Yilan to the emperor's place.

This time I gave the emperor health-preserving tea. The emperor thought it was sour and stinky again, so he looked at it with disgust, but thought it would be good for his health, so he picked it up and drank a couple of sips.

Unexpectedly, the entrance this time was very sour and refreshing, and it still quenched thirst, so the emperor asked: "Wei Aiqing, what kind of tea is this time?"

Wei Qing replied: "Go back to the emperor, this time it's mulberry herbal tea."

"Mulberries?"

Wei Qing explained to the emperor the many health benefits of this mulberry. Not only men eat it to nourish the liver and strengthen the kidneys, but women also eat it to beautify their skin. It is very nutritious.

Mulberry is made into jam, which is convenient for storage and transportation. It can be used to make tea or serve with snacks.

Wei Qing also did not forget to give some to the concubines in the harem. The concubines heard that it can beautify the skin. How can it be false that the Wei imperial doctor admired it? Moreover, the mulberry jam is very delicious when used to make tea and desserts. Popular with harem ladies.

In addition, Wei Qing gave the emperor mulberry tea every three to five times, and the rest of the time he gave sour and smelly health tea, the emperor would naturally miss it very much.

After careful questioning, the emperor found out that Wei Qing's deceased mother had left a few acres of fertile land, which farmers rented to grow mulberries.It was a pity for Wei Qing to see that the mulberries were ripe and fell on the ground, so he used them to make wine and jam.

Leaving aside the fact that the wine was not yet ripe, the emperor asked Wei Qing to bring more jam into the palace.

After those harem ladies ate the jam that Wei Qing sent, they couldn't get any more, so they all whispered to the emperor.

Wei Qing seemed very embarrassed.

The emperor said: "Didn't you buy mulberries from a large mulberry field? You should make a lot of jam?"

Wei Qing said respectfully: "My Majesty, I have used my future dowry in advance... to buy those mulberries, and asked someone to help make wine and make jam with honey and mulberries. I originally planned to sell them in the market so that Earn some money."

The emperor glanced at her and said: "Don't talk so poorly, and use the dowry. Didn't I reward you less before?"

Wei Qing said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I have no family to support me. I have to rely on myself for everything. Only by working hard to earn a dowry will I not be rejected by others in the future."

The emperor said: "You and Jingyi are about the same age, have the same temperament, and you are my former imperial physician. Who dares to look down on you? Without the support of your family, I will make decisions for you in the future."

Wei Qing bowed and said, "My minister thank you, Your Majesty."

The emperor waved his hand and said: "Come on, come on, I don't think it's easy for you to earn a dowry, and I'm not someone who takes advantage of my subjects, let the Ministry of Internal Affairs inspect your jams, and if there are no problems, send them to the palace. How much money you sell outside, I will double it for you, and in the future only domestic donations are allowed, and no export is allowed."

The emperor was also worried about whether all the jams brought into the palace could be distributed evenly among the women in the harem, and how could Wei Qing be allowed to sell them to outsiders casually.

"Thank you Lord Long En."

When Wei Qing came out of the hall, the sky outside was blue and cloudless, and it was washed clear by the rain. It seemed that the rain had passed and the sky was clear.

The sky is fine, the rain accumulated in the past few days has gradually dried up, the sun is warming up again, and the weather seems to be two points hotter than before.

After not seeing each other for a few days, Wei Qing finally met Yin Cong in the palace.

Yilan asked her before, did she miss Yin Jing when she couldn't see him?

When Wei Qing saw him coming from the path under the willow shade with his own eyes, the sound of cicadas around him gradually faded away, as if everything had fallen into tranquility.

In Wei Qing's heart, it was like a stone dropped into a calm lake, causing ripples every inch of it.

The mottled sunlight falling on him through the shade of the willows gave him a sense of timelessness.

Wei Qing squinted his eyes and said hello: "Is the governor of Yin coming to the palace to handle business?"

"Yeah." Yin Yan looked at her and said, "Let's go back together after we're done."

Wei Qing said: "Don't think about me, Dudu Yin should be very busy with official duties recently, I have Ah Ying to pick him up."

Yin Xuan nodded without forcing.

After a few words, the two went to their respective directions.

After waiting for the balance, Wei Qing and Yi Lan went out of the palace together.Yilan also double-checked at the gate of the palace, and she did not see the sedan chairs of Jin Yiwei and the governor.

The master and servant went to the outer palace gate to take Ah Ying's carriage.

On the way, Yilan was inevitably a little disappointed, and said: "Obviously the governor said he wanted to pick up the lady, why did the lady refuse, now it's all right, the governor must have believed the duplicity of the lady's words, and he really didn't wait for the lady."

Wei Qing twitched the corner of his mouth, and said, "Do I look so boring, and I'm duplicity. The governor doesn't seem to be idle, is he free to listen to my duplicity?"

"Then why didn't the young lady go back with the governor, you... aren't you better than before?"

After a while, Wei Qing said calmly: "Because it's better than before, you should pay more attention. If you want to maintain a long-term relationship, you can't cause trouble for each other. He is very busy, why don't you ask him to pick me up at the palace gate?" Necessary, besides, I have my own carriage, why waste his time?"
