Xue Yao scrambled to his feet, checking the Sixth Prince's arms and legs, "Ouch! Your Highness, it won't do any harm if I fall a bit, but if your golden body is crushed by me, I'll lose my head, so why take the risk of catching me?"
Sixth prince deliberately denied: "Who said I want to catch you? I was just standing here watching my second brother and seventh brother competing in martial arts, when you suddenly flew over, I couldn't dodge in time before I was planted, I was careless, I'll definitely be able to avoid it next time."
He said this because he didn't want Xue Yao to feel a psychological burden, but Xue Yao didn't understand his feelings and was heartbroken.
The Sixth Prince has been a warm child since he was a child, gentle, considerate and understanding, and what is even more rare is that he does all this without expecting anything in return.
Xue Yao had always wanted to understand what kind of divine parent the Sixth Prince's mother consort was, to be able to educate such a child.
Originally, she wanted to learn a few tricks from the God's parents, so that she could steer Long Aotian's cub in the direction of being a warm baby, so after she got acquainted, Xue Yao found a chance to follow the Sixth Prince, and went to his mother's palace a couple of times.
The results surprised Xue Yao.
Sixth prince's mother consort is Hua Guifei, several appearances are cold face, the attitude of the sixth prince, not to mention love, even the courtesans are not comparable, simply not like a mother.
Princess Hua often wallowed in her own misery, because of the Emperor's thinness of heart.
Her self-loathing didn't earn her the emperor's pity, but it brought endless troubles to her own children.
Can't wait for his father to coax his mother consort, when he was young, the sixth prince could only use all his strength to make his mother consort happy, and in return, it was often his mother consort's annoyance and repulsion.
It was said that before Consort Shio was presented to the Emperor, the Sixth Prince's mother consort was the most favored consort, and was in the limelight for a while.
Everyone knows what happened later, the appearance of Princess Shio made Princess Hua Gui lose her favor.
The emperor is busy only to run to the green dome of the temple, a huge sense of disparity, so that Hua Guifei temperament changed greatly.
Xue Yao had gone to Noble Lady Hua's hall several times to observe silently and found that the woman would spend long periods of time in a wooden mood that resisted communication with the outside world, and occasionally she would suddenly break down and cry out in a state of grief.
Most likely suffering from depression.
And the young sixth prince did not understand the former gentle mother consort why suddenly become so sad, always feel that if they are more well-behaved and understand some, mother consort will not be so sad.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make up for the damage his father had done to his mother's consort.
Over time, his mother's consort's tearfulness and rejection of him made the Sixth Prince feel a deep sense of guilt.
With a bit of desperate persistence, the Sixth Prince was always trying to do better.
That's one hell of a child with a pleasing personality.
Over the years, Xue Yao had always taken extra care of the Sixth Prince, giving him no less attention and emotional feedback than he did to the little fat cub.
It was to allow the Sixth Prince to rebuild his confidence and not just sacrifice himself to please others.
Most onlookers would not remember the Sixth Prince's sacrifices and fulfillment, instead they would get used to the Sixth Prince's forbearance and understanding.
On the contrary, the Sixth Prince was capricious once in a while, but would be rewarded with the displeasure of others.
This displeasure would be sensitively captured by the Sixth Prince, who had suffered from his mother's cold shoulder, thus making him even more terrified that the nightmare of being hated for not doing enough would be repeated over and over again.
Gradually, the Sixth Prince became the little sun in everyone's eyes.
Probably only Xue Yao couldn't take this warmth for granted, this painful warmth that the Sixth Prince was desperately burning himself to give.
Therefore, over the years, although caring for the Sixth Prince sometimes caused the little chubby cub to fight for favor in a petty manner, Xue Yao still didn't temper her care.
At this moment, looking at the Sixth Prince deliberately pretending that his fall didn't hurt, Xue Yao didn't say much, but still went up to carefully inspect and pinched Nuanbao's wrist and arm, asking him if it hurt.
The little fat cub, who had won a big victory, did not even notice that he had just knocked down his second brother and sent his old father flying to get a double kill, and at the moment was already happily running to relieve the rabbit on the back of his second brother's horse.
All eight rabbits went to His Highness!
The dumbest and most timid white rabbit was given to Xue Yao by His Highness, who kept asking "Does he look like you?" He kept asking when he gave it to her, "Does it look like you?
Xue Yao endured the humiliation of holding the scared little white rabbit in his arms, angry and did not dare to refute, at first glance, Xue Yao and the silly rabbit in his arms is really one ......
His Highness looked happy.
It's a particularly ungrateful fake Dragon Pride pup now!
Lost all the "family" of the second prince of the old tears, open up the old face to ask the old seven: "A moment later, big brother to review the results of the eight rabbits can be put on the second brother's horse, back to the camp and then give you a more."
The smug little chubby cub scrunched up his nose at Ergo and made a face to show his rejection.
The Sixth Prince helplessly patted his second brother on the shoulder, "I just hit five, brother take three to cope with it."
The Second Prince's pitiful fox eyes immediately narrowed in triumph again, and the folding fan gently touched the Sixth Prince's forehead, "Brother didn't hurt you for nothing!"
Xue Yao, who was holding the silly rabbit, immediately pricked up his ears and pounded the Sixth Prince with his arm as hard as he could.
The Sixth Prince looked back suspiciously, and when he saw that Xue Yao was again looking like he was blaming him for his poor generosity, he grinned and said, "What's so precious about rabbits? Father has not yet finished eating the venison he shot."
"Our Sixth Brother just understands things, unlike some little fatties." The second prince carried the three rabbits unloaded from the sixth brother's horse, slanted a glance at the seventh brother, turned his head to the sixth brother and said, "When the fall hunt is over, I'm going to go to Jiangzhe with big brother to collect grain, and there's a shortage of capable people like you who can do things, so how about my brother taking you along? Not take you seventh brother."
The seventh prince's ears immediately perked up, suspecting that his brothers had gone to eat something delicious without taking themselves.
Grain collection?
Xue Yao's heart thumped at the word, could it be that the trial period for that change of law, had already begun?
All these years of living comfortably had almost made Xue Yao ignore the dangers of the future, always thinking that those dangers wouldn't happen until the fat cubs grew up.
But without realizing it, the little chubby cub was twelve years old.
The eldest prince had been made a crown prince four years ago, and now at the age of twenty-five, he had indeed reached the early stages of the original change.
This caused Xue Yao, who had been at ease for nine years, to tremble.
Rush to remember the original plot.
The Emperor gave the Prince a certain impoverished county as a place to test the change of law.
Jiangzhe transfer of Liang is the first step of the Prince to try to change the law.
The Prince and his strategists have been planning for seven or eight years, and finally introduced the change of law to start a trial run.
Xue Yao recalled that the general content of the change of law was similar to Zhang Juzheng's reform of the one whip law, as well as part of Wang Anshi's new law.
For example, the Uniformed Services Act is similar to the exemption law, which started after the new law was officially in operation.
The pilot phase was mainly to establish new court institutions to replace merchants and landowners and to buy grain from affluent provinces at low prices and transport it to the affected areas. Selling and lending at low prices.
The original intention of the change of law was not only to compete with merchants to enrich the treasury, but more importantly to benefit the people and reduce land annexation.
Policies like these have been specialized in all dynasties - buy low-priced grain at par during good years, store it in the national granary, and then open the granary to provide relief when the state or county is hit by a disaster.
However, the court knew in its heart how many disadvantages existed in this mode of disaster relief, and Xue Yao was even more clear in his heart.
Even in the information-developed society in which Xue Yao lived, all kinds of nominal donations, when they really reached the hands of the affected people, had already been coveted by layers of handlers who didn't know how many percent of them had been taken away, not to mention in the ancient times, when information could be buried easily.
There is no way to measure how many people's pockets have to be filled between the imperial court's relief of the people's money and grain, from the center to the state and counties.
So this change of law proposed by the Crown Prince is quite a bit different from previous policies.
One is an independent regulatory authority, directly in line with the court.
Neither let the Beijing officials handle, will not go through the provinces and counties of the feudal governor or even the governor of the county, completely simulate the private market transactions, do not call on the state treasury money, do not apply for public funds.
This new organization issued salaries, all have to be self-reliant, and each year to fulfill the court's target, almost avoiding the possibility of officials at all levels to exploit the loopholes to make money.
In Xue Yao's opinion, there is nothing wrong with this change of law, the new organization is flexible and cannot apply for public funds, it has to compete fairly with businessmen from all over the world.
The advantages are mainly the accessibility and low transportation costs of the national canal.
If the price is high, the victims will naturally go to private merchants, and the organization will not be able to meet the court's target, which forces them to be more "conscientious" than private merchants.
Of course, this change of law is only one of many.
Xue Yao is a science student who doesn't know much about policy regulation, and when he first read the book, he didn't think about what was wrong with the change of law at all, and he only knew that it turned out to be a failure.
Why did it fail?
Read a book without thinking, wear a book crematorium.
If he had known this day, Xue Yao should have consulted an economist immediately after reading the content of the change.
Xue Yao had been eavesdropping on the Second Prince's talk about the Change of Law all the way.
However, I'm afraid that this otaku god's understanding of the Change of Law is not as good as his liberal arts illiteracy.
The Second Prince boasted about the Crown Prince's talent the entire time.
It's a bro-control brainless blow up!
When the change of law fails, I'm afraid the face of the brother controller will be swollen.
Thinking of the failure of the change of law, Xue Yao was worried.
When reading the book he didn't pay much attention to the part about the abolition of the crown prince, vaguely remembering that after this virtuous and talented gentleman fell from the altar, he was subjected to a crazy backlash from the party of the three emperors, and the later parts about the abolition of the crown prince were all very depressing.
Hero's End.
Xue Yao didn't want to see his idol repeat such a tragedy.
But this matter ...... is not the same as repairing the Shu Road.
The matter of repairing the Shu Road, he had had quite a few ways to thwart it from the start, and Princess Shio's trust in him was the most important part.
Shi Fei, an ancient woman, had little opinion of her own, so it wasn't difficult for Xue Yao to lull her into a false sense of security, but it would be hopeless if she was replaced by the Crown Prince.
He went to tell the Crown Prince that the change of law could not be carried out, and he had to give one, two or three reasons, right?
And what is he going to say to the Crown Prince when he can't even figure out at all why the change in law failed?
"I don't know why, but I don't think you should fool around, Prince."
I'm afraid I'll be so idolized and kinesthetically educated that I'll die on the spot.
And it was too late to dissuade it now; the acute Prince, at the drop of a hat, had actually begun a trial run.
This time to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to acquire grain, according to the description in the original, it seems that there is no movement of the treasury's silver, but the emperor out of his own pocket, to his son blindly.
Counting on it, the big piggyback emperor was kind of down to support his son's ambition.
The initial manpower and principal for the establishment of this organization added up to one million taels of silver given by the emperor, 80% of which were used to purchase grain and lend it to the affected counties.
Eight hundred thousand taels of silver, according to the market price of grain in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, can acquire about one million three hundred thousand stones of grain.
But the deal is so huge that it will inevitably lead to grain merchants competing for business by pressing prices.
According to Xue Yao's vision and estimated costs, the Crown Prince should eventually be able to acquire more than a million and seven hundred thousand stones of grain.
However, I don't know if he remembered correctly, in the original story this trip to purchase grain, the crown prince ended up buying only one hundred and two million stones of grain.
The price was even more expensive than what the local commoners bought, and Xue Yao suspected that the Idol Prince wouldn't be able to haggle at all.
How else can you compete with local merchants when you buy and sell so much?
Xue Yao felt that he might be able to crush the Crown Prince on all fronts when it came to bargaining!
After all, since he was abandoned by his parents when he was a child, the two families gave him a little living expenses almost just enough to keep him from starving to death, and Xue Yao, who broke a penny into two halves to spend it, naturally practiced his bullish bargaining skills.
Thinking that he could help the Crown Prince, Xue Yao immediately drifted off, holding the little white rabbit and couldn't wait to run and ask the Sixth Prince: "Can you bring me along when you go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to collect grain? My mother's hometown is in Gusu, and my maternal grandfather is very prestigious in the area, so I'm sure I can be of some help."
The tip of the Seventh Prince's ears trembled as he turned his head warily towards Xue Yao.
Silly Yao Yao is going to take the rabbit from His Highness and go far away with Sixth Brother!
