In the Forbidden City, Zhu Yunyu also got up early. He went to Yong'an Palace to greet the old man first, then returned to Lezhizhai to start his busy day.

Zhu Yunyu handles government affairs and the old man. Except for the ministers' discussions during the grand court meeting, the old man is arbitrary at other times. However, Zhu Yunyu usually expresses his opinions on the grand court. Instead, he likes to find problems at any time during the office and summon his ministers to discuss with him at any time.

Moreover, it is often said that it will take a long time.

Therefore, a row of office rooms were specially set up next to Lezhizhai.

The ministers of the six ministries and nine ministers could not be here at any time, but there are always several left-behind ministers in the office. This is convenient for the emperor to summon and ask questions.

In fact, compared with the two, Zhu Yunxi's method of handling government affairs has made the ministers the most tired. Because they have to appear at any time and be highly nervous at any time.

Zhu Yunyu sat cross-legged on the kang and watched the memorials. Several ministers stood at the door with their hands hanging down. The eunuchs were in charge of the turtle and commanded the palace servants to arrange breakfast.

"The Henan governor and the river yamen have submitted a memorial. I asked the court to allocate funds to clear the waterways of the Yellow River!" Zhu Yunyu opened a memorial, "The memorial said that he would ask for 800,000 silver dollars and collect 30,000 civilians." As he said that, he raised his eyelids slightly, "Ministry of Works, what do you think?"

The water disease of the Yellow River is almost a common disease that has been permeated with all dynasties. If it is not cured, it will flood. However, it can be cured repeatedly and has little effect.

Hearing this, among the ministers standing by, Lian Zining, the Minister of Works, hurriedly said, "I am calling the emperor that 800,000 is not much used to build rivers, and 30,000 people are not a big project. But I think that the rivers in Henan are repaired every year and replenished every year. This year, 800,000 will be another 800,000 next year, like cutting flesh with a blunt knife. No matter how rich the treasury is, it will be unbearable that day!"

"Besides, it would be fine if it could be cured. The floods were repeated over and over, and there was a danger of recurrence after three or five years." As he said, Lian Zining looked at Zhu Yunxi's face and continued to speak, "I think that repairing the river cannot only look at the front of me. We should still coordinate and manage it. Not to mention striving for once and for all, at least one repair can be peaceful for ten or eight years!"

"Old ministers are attached!" Ling Han, the Minister of Personnel, followed, "The old ministers are from Henan. Some of them are inconvenient to say something to other colleagues, but the old ministers can speak freely!"

"Oh?" Zhu Yunsheng smiled, "Is there any hidden secret behind the Xiuhe Silver?" As he said, he turned to the turtle and said, "Turn them with a stool. They don't need breakfast either. Two or three things are enough for me, and the rest are put in front of them!"

As he said that, he said to the ministers, "We monarch and ministers should not eat and sleep, and talk while eating!"

"I'm thanking God for your kindness!"

Everyone sat down, and the turtlemaster led the little eunuch and put food on the table in front of them.

These ministers also went out to the palace early in the morning and ate a few bites of breakfast, and were already hungry at this time.

"Take the meatballs to Ling Han and give the bitter melon to Ruba......" Zhu Yunyu knew a little about the preferences of his ministers.

Ling Han first ate a few meatballs and ate a few bites of rice before he spoke, "I am from Henan. The people of Henan are afraid of floods. It is a good thing for the government to manage rivers, but I am afraid that local officials will build rivers in order to build rivers!"

"I don't think about the immediate interests after a hundred years. The original purpose of Xiuhe River is to make the people stable and the floods no longer rage. But some local officials ignore these things and only regard Xiuhe River as a political achievement."

"The old minister either said that the local government would ask for money for money, or used the money from the court to buy his own political achievements. But there is indeed such a thing, and there will be future."

"Mr. Lian said just now, in fact, he gave face to the Henan Provincial Administration and the river channel. Eight hundred thousand yuan to manage the river channel is also a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause." Speaking of this, Ling Han looked around and smiled, "Mr. Hou was once the governor of Henan. I think the view is the same as the old minister!"

Zhu Yunxi's eyes turned to Hou Yong, "Tell me!"

Hou Yong stood up and saluted, and then slowly said, "I have been in Henan for several years and built rivers twice. One was when I first took office, and joined forces with local gentry and merchants to clear the rivers on a small scale. The other was that after the floods last year, the Supreme Emperor at that time used the inner trunk to build the rivers!"

"It was not that I didn't want to repair it before, but that the treasury really had no money, so I could only repair it. Now the treasury is rich and the emperor is generous. As long as the local government asks for money to repair rivers and roads, there is nothing I don't want to give it to you!"

Obviously, he had something in his words, and Zhu Yunxiu quietly waited for the following.

Hou Yong was also organizing reasonable words, "I will roughly estimate that, as Mr. Ling said, although 800,000 is not enough, it is inevitable to leave a tail when it comes to controlling river water disasters!"

"I have offended people, but I have to say it. Since I know I want to keep my tail, why not just ask for enough money at once and completely manage it?"

"There has not been war in the past two years and it has become a common practice for officials to ask for money to repair this and that. Because these are all capitals in their resumes."

"It became a routine for them to ask for money, and many local revisions have also been routine. For example, this time, a tail is left. Then the next local official has a reasonable name to ask the court to allocate funds!"

As he said that, he looked at Zhu Yunyu's face and said boldly, "It's necessary every year, and every year, once it becomes a routine, the court will spend money on people's wealth and cream..."

How could Zhu Yunqiu not know these tricks?

The reason why he said it in front of these people was that he wanted these ministers to expose the tricks.

Back then, there was a road in front of his house. He started to practice when he went to elementary school until he was married. It was not repaired yet. It was strange that he did not repair it in spring or summer, and he excavated in autumn, and then stopped work before winter.

After a winter, the road turned into concrete floor the next year, and then it was repaired.

The excavator is scattered all day long, like a machine gun from a fucking Japanese devil.

There are also green belts on both sides of the road, where fruit trees were planted. Every year when they bloom, ordinary people took photos with their families and their families to play. Later, they said that someone had picked fruits and got poisoned, so they cut them directly. After cutting them, they lay red bricks, and the second year they dug up the blue bricks, turned into flower beds, and then turned into red bricks in the fourth year.

Zhu Yunxi smiled, "As you say that, this memorial from Henan governor and the river yamen is bad?"

"My......" Hou Yong thought, "I dare not make arbitrary decisions, but at least they are not devoted to controlling the water, but also have selfish intentions!" As he said, he continued to shout, "The reason why the Yellow River has been flooding for many years is not that the river cannot be cured!"

He paused, "For example, it's like a person is always scattered. Is the food he eats bad? It's probably because he has a bad stomach, right?"

This vulgar metaphor directly made Zhu Yunxi and the ministers laugh.

"Hey, you are disgusting! What about drinking soup and eating meatballs?" Ling Han cursed.

"The flood of the Yellow River lies in the fact that there are too few trees in Henan!" Hou Yong continued, " "Song, among the young people, there are all woodcuts and woodcuts. Only the century-old trees are found in ancient temples, and the trees outside are newly planted in these years!"

Zhu Yunqiu nodded frequently when he heard this. Hou Yong's words reached the root. Floods are also manifestations of the ecological environment, and the ecological environment is a chain of reincarnations. Without trees, water and soil cannot be protected.

Historical records show that in ancient times, the forest coverage rate in Henan accounted for more than 60%, during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the forest coverage rate became less than 20%, and in the Tang Dynasty, less than half of it was in the Song Dynasty.

Moreover, because of the years of war in the northwest of the Song Dynasty, the forests in the upper reaches of the Yellow River were cut down completely, which aggravated the flooding of the lower reaches of the Yellow River. In addition, the territory of Zhao and Song Dynasty was too small, and in order to increase production, the fields surrounded in the lower reaches of the Yellow River alone reached 22 million hectares.

Drain the original river channel into fields, it would be like a car accident on the expressway, and it would be strange if it was not blocked.

"When I was in Henan, I strictly ordered that all places prohibit random cuts and cuts and fires berths and slashes and fires berths!" Hou Yong said again, "Your Majesty, it's not that I am arrogant. If I really want to govern the river, it's not a matter of a province in Henan. I have to work together upstream and downstream!"

"Okay!" Zhu Yunxiu said without hesitation, "As you said, you cannot treat headaches and treat head and foot pains. You must find out the root of the Yellow River." As he said, he paused, "I will hand this over to the Ministry of Works, Hou Aiqing!"

"I'm here!"

"You can do more hard work. In addition to the Ministry of Personnel, you should also take care of the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Works first!"

"I obey the order!"

At this time, the turtlema said outside the door, "Long live, Duke Cao is here!"

"Come in!"

Then, Zhu Yunxi smiled and looked at the memorial in his hand and put it aside. "This new Henan governor and the river yamen are too confused!"

This sentence happened to make Li Jinglong, who had just come in, listened to him.
