After hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, Wu Yan showed a trace of hesitation in his eyes. Looking at Zhu Cixiang in front of him, a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.
In his opinion, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been a very rational person, and he handles things very well, rarely acting unreasonably.
What happened today??
Wu Di hesitated for a moment, looked at Zhu Cihong in front of him and said: "Your Highness, if you must say so, if Li Zicheng dies suddenly, it will indeed be a huge problem for us. After the break-ins are broken up, there will definitely be some problems.
A few people will be directly merged by the Qing army. In that case, the Qing army we encounter will be a behemoth!"
really!
Hearing Wu Zong's words, Zhu Cixiang felt a slight chill in his heart, and a sigh flashed in his eyes.
"But Your Highness, your hypothesis is not likely to happen! If we must say this about such an oolong incident, then we might as well assume that when we just entered the battlefield, a certain general died suddenly and inexplicably.
, it feels like this feeling is much bigger!”
Wu Di looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said.
"Yes! I understand! That's what Mr. Wu said!"
Hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, Wu Yan showed a trace of hesitation in his eyes. Looking at Zhu Cixiang in front of him, he always felt that Zhu Cixiong seemed to know something.
But he never said it.
After hesitating for a moment, Wu Zong looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said: "Your Highness, if you think Li Zicheng will die, you can actually make arrangements for the intruders earlier. If you can capture some power from the intruders earlier,
, which is also a good thing for us.
After all, Li Yan and Song Xiance have also joined us! We can also use their influence!"
"Okay! Mr. Wu, I understand!"
A smile appeared on Zhu Cixiang's face and he said to Wu Yan in front of him.
At this time, Zhu Cixiang pondered for a moment, looked at Wu Di in front of him and said: "Regarding Wu Sangui, who do you think would be better at persuading him?"
"Your Highness."
Wu Yan sighed slightly, looked at Zhu Cixiang in front of him and said.
"If Wu Sangui really wants to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, even if we ask his father to persuade him, it will be useless!"
"Then let's..."
There was a hint of hesitation in Zhu Cixi's eyes as he looked at Wu Zong in front of him.
"For the current plan, we can only pretend that nothing has happened, and don't hold anyone accountable! Don't try to persuade anyone. If we send someone to persuade, we will lose the court's face!"
Wu Yan looked at Zhu Cihong in front of him seriously.
"Fine!"
Zhu Cixiang nodded.
really!
At present, the court can no longer promise anything, and a duke is enough.
If you directly promise Wang Jue, the last remaining face of the imperial court will be wiped out directly. People like Zuo Liangyu from all over the country will probably directly see the imperial court's weakness.
Thinking of this, Zhu Cixiang sighed slightly in his heart.
"I see!"
Zhu Cixiang said to Wu Di who was standing aside.
Wu Di nodded.
"Mr. Wu, how is the settlement of the farming matter going?"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Wu Yan in front of him and asked.
"Wei Chen visited several places in Laizhou, re-measured the land, and conducted a population census. He discovered that there were many hidden fields and hidden populations.
So far, Tuntian is doing pretty well!”
Wu Yan said respectfully to Zhu Cixiang in front of him.
As he spoke, Wu Zong showed a trace of hesitation on his face.
"It's just that, Your Highness, according to the current situation we have investigated, the population of Shandong as a whole should be much larger than we imagined. In addition, due to wars in various places, the refugees who came to Shandong have been resettled. According to our current grain storage
Come and see..."
Wu Yan looked at Zhu Cihong in front of him with worry in his eyes.
"Whatever you can plant, just plant it first!"
Zhu Cixi looked at Wu Yan in front of him and said.
"At least, we don't have any food crisis now??"
Wu Di shook his head.
"It's okay so far, but with such a large population..."
Wu Yan looked at Zhu Cihong in front of him with a wry smile on his face.
"Your Highness, the entire population of Shandong is larger than we thought, but the land capacity is limited. Maybe we still have some food on hand, but wait until next year, the year after..."
As he said that, Wu Zong showed a worried look on his face.
Looking at Wu Zong's expression, Zhu Cixiang smiled slightly.
"Don't worry! Mr. Wu, I have been prepared!"
Wu Yan glanced at Zhu Cixiang in front of him with some doubts. He didn't know what kind of preparation Zhu Cixiang had. After all, the population of Shandong as a whole was in the millions!
How to feed such a large population is a big problem!
But since Zhu Cihong said so, Wu Di didn't say anything more.
Of course Wu Dong didn't know.
Just two days ago, Jin Yiwei received good news from the south. The sweet potato trial planting was successful!
The seedlings are already sprouting!
This is great news for Zhu Cixi. Needless to say, the importance of sweet potatoes!
I hope that with the advent of sweet potatoes, there will be fewer people starving to death in Shandong and even in China as a whole!
Thinking of this, Zhu Cixiang sighed in his heart.
"Your Highness, we have arranged for people to resume work and production at the coal mines and iron mines that you were previously concerned about."
"Thank you Mr. Wu!"
Zhu Cixiang quickly said to Wu Yan in front of him.
To be honest, Wu Di really helped him a lot. Wu Di, a great talent, could understand some of his political intentions and could implement them well. This saved Zhu Cixi a lot of energy.
!
"How is the construction of village and town public schools going?"
At this moment, Zhu Cixiang suddenly thought of something again, and he asked Wu Yan in front of him.
"The public school is doing well, but..."
As Wu Yan was speaking, he suddenly stopped for a moment, with a hesitant look on his face, and looked at Zhu Cizhong in front of him.
"About salary..."
"Salary?"
Zhu Cixi was stunned for a moment.
Looking at Zhu Cixi's expression, Wu Yan in front of him hurriedly said to Zhu Cixi: "Your Highness, what I mean is, regarding these teachers of village studies and township studies, what kind of salary should they get, because currently none of them have one?"
There are relatively uniform standards, so these people live a somewhat difficult life..."
"Mr. Wu, there is no need to explain anything."
Zhu Cixi smiled, looked at Wu Yi in front of him and said: "I often tell Li Xi that when you govern a country and do things, you must not be ashamed of speaking for profit, whether it is speaking for the benefit of the country, the people, or yourself.
Yan Li, as long as it is within a reasonable scope, I don’t think there is any problem at all!
We all have hands and feet, a mouth and a stomach, and we all need to eat! We all need to make a living! Being ashamed of one's speech and profit is a trait of corrupt scholars, and I didn't expect that Mr. Wu would also be infected!"
