Chapter 955 Dingjiang(1/2)

  Liu Mingzhi put down the bowl and chopsticks, leaned forward and picked up the folder Jiang Yuanming placed in front of him. He nodded and looked through it silently for a while, and then Liu Mingzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
“I hope that officials in various places will not deliberately conceal the true situation of people’s livelihood for the sake of their own political achievements.
 There is no small matter in people's livelihood. The safety of the people is closely related to the Ministry of Household Affairs. Remember to implement things that benefit the people.
  The Ministry of Personnel, Yushitai."
 “I’m here!”
Xia Gongming, the imperial censor, and Du Chenghao, the official minister, also put down their bowls and chopsticks and walked out.
 “I am here.”
“This is not only an important task for one government office of the Ministry of Revenue, but also an equally heavy burden on the shoulders of both of your government offices.
In order to prevent state officials from committing fraud and deceiving the superiors and subordinates, you, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, should also pay more attention to the merit examinations, as well as the supervisory censors in various places on the censorship platform."
 “I obey your orders!”
Liu Mingzhi stood up, stretched, and wandered quietly in the hall.
“Dear dear friends, I know that there are still many officials in various state capitals who still think that I am a rebellious and traitorous minister who is plotting to rebel and usurp the throne, and they are still waiting to see if I will become an upright person of the previous dynasty.
I don’t blame them, it’s their business to curse me as much as they like.
 From the first year of Ruian, the reign of my father, Ruizong, to the end of my first year, Taiping, for almost twelve years, I, Dalong, fought every year.
There are many young and strong men who are guarding the border and serving in the army. There are so many hot-blooded men who go to fight and shed blood on the battlefield that in most state capitals, young and middle-aged men have almost ten rooms and nine empty houses, and there are countless widowers and lonely people.
 The war has lasted for more than ten years, and the people's minds have been peaceful for a long time. Now that the world is finally unified, the people's thoughts of peace and contentment are finally over.
 Now is a good opportunity for our dragon to recuperate, appease the people's livelihood, and enhance national strength.
 Especially to restore the people's livelihood and the administration of officials, and to rectify the political agenda are top priorities.
Not only me, the new emperor, but also all the elders of the Five Dynasties, the Elders of the Fourth Dynasty, the Elders of the Third Dynasty, and those who are less advanced are here. We have a very heavy burden.
 At this critical moment, please don’t worry about me.
You all know my temper. I seldom take matters seriously in ordinary matters, but they are related to our country, our country, and our people.
If anyone dares to play tricks on me and slack off in administration, then don’t blame me for not remembering our old friendship.”
"I sincerely follow His Majesty's teachings, and I will bear them in mind. I am willing to work hard for the country, the country, and the people."
Liu Mingzhi nodded silently.
 “The Minister of Rites of Qin Dynasty.”
 “The old minister is here!”
“As I just said, the war lasted for more than ten years, and young and strong men suffered heavy casualties. Their blood was spilled on the battlefield, and tens of thousands of them returned with their souls.
 Nowadays, widowhoods must be gathered from all over the world.
 Especially when the husband dies in battle, his parents are filial to him, and his young children are raised by his family.
 Relying only on the pension from the court, for such a woman, all the burdens are placed on her, which can be said to be an embarrassing burden.
You and Jiang Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue will formulate a policy immediately after the dynasty is over. After the period of rest, you will issue the imperial decree immediately in the coming year.
 Prefectures, prefectures, counties, districts, and villages must all be clearly announced to the people of the world.
 The imperial court encouraged widows to remarry and choose a good son-in-law.
 The local government offices under the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development have established marriage certification departments to coordinate with local officials to supervise this matter.
 For a Xinhe couple with a family of five, the court will provide them with a monthly subsidy of one tael of silver.
 For a family of five to ten members, the court will pay two taels of silver per month.
 For families with more than ten members, the court will provide them with a monthly supplement of four taels of silver.
 For a chaste woman who insists on being chaste for her husband, the court will subsidize her with two taels of silver every month to support her husband and raise her children.
 Until three consecutive years.
 Yang Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.”
 “The old minister is here!”
“This matter still needs to be supervised by the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Rites.
Not long after you took over the position of Minister, the new official has three things to do when he takes office. The first one should be given to me."
“Yes, I will not disappoint Your Majesty.”
 “Right Prime Minister!”
 Tong Sansi was startled for a moment, put down his bowl and chopsticks and walked out.
 “The old minister is here.”
“You handle this matter for the Governor-General. The memorials prepared by the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Works will be reviewed and compiled by you and then submitted to me.”
 “Old minister obeys the order.”
“My dear friends, please cooperate sincerely and don’t let me down!”
 “I obey the order.”
“Now that we have finished talking about Dalong, it’s time to talk about the affairs of the Jin Kingdom and the Turks.
 The two beauties next to me are some familiar to you and some are strangers to you.
This is the former Golden Empress Wanyan Wanyan, who was also one of my first wives who had no real name at first. Later she became famous and became the first concubine of the harem in the future.
My dear friends, I have seen many people who spoke politely. When I came to the throne, I came to see my father for a pilgrimage.
It’s just that now there are very few Aiqings who can recognize Wanyan. Times have changed. More than 20 years have passed. Except for the officials who went to the Kingdom of Jin with me back then, I’m afraid no one can still recognize Wanyan as the king of the Kingdom of Jin.
Already.
  As for this person, many elders of the Four Dynasties and the Elders of the Three Dynasties should still have an impression of him.
 not not does not not not not not not does not not not not does not not not not not do not.
 In the blink of an eye, eight years have passed.
 Fortunately, my junior brother's appearance has not changed much. I think many of my old friends can still recognize him.
Now that the world is unified, my junior brother and I have been in love for many years, and we will become one of the concubines in the harem in the future."
After listening to Liu Mingzhi's words, Huyan Yunyao felt the surprised eyes of the officials in the palace, her cheeks turned red and she lowered her head.
 “I see you two empresses, they are thousands of years old.”
The Queen raised her eyebrows and nodded with a slight smile.
 “Excuse me, my lords!”
Huyan Yunyao was silent for a while before nodding silently and said in a stuttering voice: "Excuse me, my lords!"
 “Thank you, the empress, for a thousand years.”
Liu Mingzhi waited silently for the Queen and the others to finish their greetings with the officials in the palace, and then turned around and waved to Liu Song.
 “Komatsu!, map!”
 “Yes, Your Majesty!”
Liu Song walked towards the back of the hall, and after a moment he walked up to Liu Mingzhi holding a roll of cloth as tall as a person, and stopped, placing the roll on the ground and slowly spreading it out.
 An exquisite map covering Dalong, the Three Kingdoms of Jintu and remote areas was displayed in front of the officials.
Liu Mingzhi took the bamboo pole Liu Song picked up from the map and circled it: "Now that the world has been united and the Jin Dynasty has broken out, the two countries have become a thing of the past.
From now on, the northern border will become the inner palace of my great dragon, and the south of Yinshan Mountain and the south of the capital of the Kingdom of Jin will be my great dragon's territory.
Today, our Dalong territory extends to the East China Sea in the east and Haijin Port in the southeast. From now on, it is also known as the Bohai Sea Territory, and is also known as the Yellow Sea Sea Territory. In the west, it extends to Dayuan in the Thirty-six Kingdoms of the Western Regions, the middle zone between the Dayue clan, and the Tianshan Mountains in its territory.
Half of the Altai Mountains are the former Turkic territories, and the other half are the territories of the Western Region countries, and will become the frontier of our Dalong Western Frontier.
When the time comes for the matter of the boundary monument, I will ask Gumo Wanggu Mo Rongrong to send a letter to the King of Dawan and ask him to arrange the matter of the boundary monument.
To the south, although Yazhou is an island and sparsely populated, it is the land left by our ancestors after all. All the islands to the north and even to the south of Yazhou must be included in our Dalong territory.
 If there are barbarians who invade, I will destroy them with all my strength. I will not give up an inch of the territory and sea islands that belong to my dragon.
To be continued...
