Chapter Fifteen: A Reunion with the Breeze and Jade Dew
"It turns out it's Mr. Qin. I'm sorry. Please take a seat inside." Jia Fu turned around and invited them to sit in the pavilion. "How did Mr. Qin find this place?"
"Mr. Suwen likes to live in this green mountain and play the harp here on moonlit nights, so Qin tried to find it. What a great harp he plays!" Qin Zheng walked into the pavilion and sat opposite Jia Fu.
Chao Yan did not go in. She looked at the two people's expressions that seemed to understand each other, so she interrupted and said, "Brother, I'm going to watch the moon and I'll be back later."
"Go, be careful not to go too far." Qin Zheng nodded slightly and smiled: This girl is not bad, she looks silly but she is also clever. If she hadn't caused trouble, Jia Fu might not be willing to stop now.
.
"Master Qin is here just to listen to someone playing the piano, right?" Jia Fu waved his feather fan lightly, his slender and elegant red phoenix eyes looked deep and mysterious, and his determined expression seemed to have predicted his purpose.
"Oh, of course that's not the case." Qin Zheng bowed his hands respectfully and asked, "Qin has heard for a long time that Mr. Qin has great talent and is capable of assisting kings. So there are some things that I don't understand, and I hope to ask Mr. for advice."
"Young Master Qin has spoken harshly, and Jia Fu cannot bear to say it." Jia Fu stopped shaking the feather fan in his hand and said, "Sir, please speak."
"Sir, there is a severe drought in various parts of our country right now, and the people have lost all their harvests. Moreover, the previous emperor was tyrannical and tyrannical. As a result, the national treasury is now empty and it is difficult to rescue the victims. I wonder if you have any good ideas, sir?" Qin Zheng sat up straight and said seriously.
Seeking teachings.
"This matter is actually not difficult to solve." Jia Fu smiled calmly and replied calmly: "As long as our newly appointed emperor can order to build up the army and nourish the people, and open up roads to the mountains and rivers
, the matter will be solved easily."
"Oh? I dare to ask, sir, how to build an army and nourish the people? I would like to hear the details." Qin Zheng listened with a serious look and looked forward to listening. The white moonlight shone in, casting his profile on the ground, as if
An ink painting of seeking talents.
"Sir, it is said that it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Even if the emperor opens the national treasury to release grain, it will be a drop in the bucket for our huge Cangdong Kingdom's hard-hit area. It would be better for the imperial court to stop the regular autumn routine from now on.
Train troops and let the people do their own work for autumn planting and disaster relief. Open all idle mountains, forests and swamps to civilians, and the benefits of the mountains, forests, swamps and swamps will be divided between the public and private sectors. Residents in all villages and districts can regularly go to the mountains to pick, graze, hunt, mine, smelt, and go to the mountains in accordance with regulations.
We should catch aquatic products from the river. Wouldn’t it be good to supplement the food with acorns, persimmons and chestnuts, rabbits, deer, wild boars, fish, turtles, clams and shrimps?”
"Wonderful!" After hearing this, Qin Zheng thought for a moment and then exclaimed happily: "As expected of Mr. Jia Fu, I didn't expect that this difficult problem that had been unresolved for several days was solved by Mr. Jia Fu in just a few words!"
"However, it is not enough to cultivate the army and support the people at this time. The political situation of our dynasty is now in chaos, and corrupt and useless officials are everywhere. Since the previous dynasty, the officials only knew how to pay taxes and labor, but ignored the suffering of the people.
The people are in dire straits; therefore, our Emperor had better fix his internal affairs as soon as possible." Jia Fu looked at the other party's expression of approval and admiration, and continued to add calmly.
"Oh? Dare I ask how to fix the internal affairs?" After hearing this, Qin Zheng's eyes became brighter and he continued to ask questions with vigour.
"Of course, let's start with the grooming department. Sir, please take a look..." Jia Fu took the brush next to the guqin used to compose music scores, took off the guqin, spread out a piece of white paper on which the music had not yet been written, and used it to write the music.
Moonlight began to write.
Qin Zheng on the side lowered his head and saw a fire twister and a candle holder next to him, so he picked up the fire twister and lit the candle holder to give him lighting.
I saw Jia Fu writing a few lines quickly, blowing on the ink, and holding it up for him to see.
