Chapter 1024 I am also aggrieved
Xiao Yu's face turned cold, "In that case, why do you force me to take a concubine?"
“In my eyes, all the women in the world, except the queen, are no different from Yan Niang.”
"I won't feel wronged if these ugly women are selected into the palace? Can I still eat? Can my mood be happy? Can my dragon body be healthy?"
“Why do you force me to choose an ugly girl to enter the palace?”
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. When it came to appearance, no woman in the world could compare with the Queen.
Wang Shangshu hurriedly said: "When choosing a concubine, you will naturally choose a beautiful woman for the emperor, and there will never be someone like Yan Niang."
Xiao Yu said coldly: "That's just what you think is beautiful. In my eyes, all women in the world, except the queen, are extremely ugly."
“If your dear friends bring up the matter of choosing a concubine again, then I will find the ugliest girls in the world and give them to you one by one. You must give birth to a child as soon as possible, otherwise I will be deceiving you!”
Gu Fei sat next to Xiao Yu, smiling with her lips pursed.
It is incredible that Xiao Yu could come up with such a trick to silence the ministers.
The ministers were speechless for a moment.
If you try to persuade me again, I'm afraid your Majesty will really do it.
If I marry Yan Niang home, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares just by looking at her, and I'll have to give birth to a child, my God!
Su Taishi coughed slightly at this time and went out of the queue and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to report. At present, the people's livelihood in the northern counties is still in decline. A large amount of land is idle and no one is cultivating it. I would like to ask the Emperor to issue an order to immigrate."
Xiao Yu nodded slightly, "Yes, I hope the cabinet will draft the regulations as soon as possible, and I can implement them after I have reviewed them."
After saying that, he glanced at Wang Shangshu and said, "Wang Aiqing, there are still many people in the north who don't have enough to eat, and it's extremely cold this winter. For the people, this winter is very difficult. When you have time, you should care more about people's livelihood and focus less on me." Concubine’s business!”
Wang Shangshu broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, "It's a minister. I failed in my duty. I will pay more attention to people's livelihood in the future."
Xiao Yu turned to look at Gu Fei, "What does the Queen think of the immigration issue raised by Grand Master Su?"
Gu Fei thought for a while, "Immigration must be done as soon as possible, preferably before the beginning of next spring."
"I believe that there is a large amount of unowned land in the north. After the government verifies it, it can be donated to the immigrants free of charge and exempted from taxes for one year."
“I also heard that someone has been encircling land in the north recently and occupying unowned land. They must be strictly investigated. Whoever is found out will be severely punished.”
Mrs. Su bowed her head and said, "The queen cares about the people. This is benevolent government."
Gu Fei nodded slightly, "Also, I would like to remind you that officials from various places must do a good job in mobilizing and preparing for immigration from the south."
“It’s cold in the north and the people in the south can’t adapt to it for a while, so the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development allocates a sum of money to make winter clothes for immigrants to keep out the cold.”
“This matter will be handled by Master Su of the Hanlin Academy in conjunction with the Ministry of Household Affairs, so that the money will not be exploited at all levels and the benefits will not fall on the people.”
Su Chen hurriedly went out and said, "I will do my best to handle this matter."
Su Taishi flattered her again, "The Queen is thoughtful and truly considers the people. Why should Daqi be unhappy if she has such a virtuous queen?"
Gu Fei smiled slightly and said, "Great Master Su, thank you for your hard work."
Everyone discussed a few more things before retreating from the court.
As the ministers walked out, several people stopped Taishi Su, "Grandmaster, the Queen has gone to court again, how can this be possible?"
"There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country. If this continues, I'm afraid..."
Su Taishi rolled his eyes, "What are you afraid of? Is there anything wrong with the Queen's handling of political affairs?"
"This, although there is nothing wrong with it, the queen is still a woman."
