Chapter 1174 As long as life gets better, it doesn’t matter if it goes a little slower.
Shen Xia: "Is this really a brothel?" he asked in disbelief, wanting to confirm again.
Fang Bingsheng quickly stood up and knelt in greeting, "Your Majesty, please forgive me! This brothel is the only place in the entire county where the environment is decent. Neither the government office nor my own residence is up to par!"
He has no other choice!
At least there is a stage in this brothel!
The environment is also much better than other places.
Moreover, even in restaurants, the environment here is not as good as this one.
Shen Xia touched his forehead speechlessly.
What kind of brain can come up with such an idea!
When she came here, so many people in the fields saw her.
Even if you are not allowed to tell anyone.
But there are always rumors.
Her reputation was ruined, and at this moment she was extremely grateful that she did not bring the children with her.
Otherwise it will be a hot topic on the streets tomorrow.
His Majesty took the Crown Prince to visit a brothel.
Just thinking about it makes me so angry that I don’t know what to say.
Fang Bingsheng's head was almost down to the ground.
Shen Xiasheng took a breath.
Thinking that he was wholeheartedly for the people and having investigated him, he indeed put the people first, so in order to get the people to come specifically to invite Song Ming over.
Of course, there wasn't much for him to be greedy about in this place.
The people on the stage saw that Lord Fang was kneeling.
The music stopped, and he just knelt there, not daring to get up.
Shen Xia took a deep breath.
Looking at Fang Bingsheng's sad face.
Low level of education.
This is something that ordinary people can't come up with.
"Alright, get up! If you have time, use your brain for the right things."
Only then did Fang Bingsheng get up.
Then the guard came forward and said something in Tu Chenyuan's ear?
Tu Chenyuan stepped forward immediately and said, "Your Majesty, the prefect of Nanhuang and other officials wish to see Your Majesty."
Shen Xia glanced at Fang Bingsheng.
This brothel receives officials.
I hope the historians don’t find out!
Otherwise, it would have gone into history books.
Now, her entering the brothel was just hearsay before.
Now the people are all convinced.
"Let them in!"
Then a group of men in official uniforms came forward.
There are people of all ages.
The prefect in front of him knelt down with everyone else and said, "Your humble servant, Zhu Changzhi, the prefect of Nanhuang, leads his subordinates to pay their respects to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."
Shen Xia raised his hand: "Everyone get up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty
The officials were already thinking about how to please His Majesty: "Your Majesty, I have failed in my duty. Your Majesty has come to the Southern Wilderness, and I did not immediately receive Your Majesty. This is truly my fault. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Shen Xia looked at the adults and said: Please stop laughing, you can’t see your eyes anymore because of laughing.
"I was originally on a private visit in disguise. What crime have you, my dear ministers, committed? Besides, I am not a tyrant. Why can't you distinguish right from wrong?"
Zhu Changzhi then looked at Fang Bingsheng and said, "Sir Fang, His Majesty has arrived. How can you receive His Majesty in such a shabby place?"
Fang Bingsheng: It’s already the best place in the county.
Fang Bingsheng complained: "It's my fault."
Whatever your boss says is right, and you cannot take the blame.
Shen Xia looked at Fang Bingsheng's sad expression.
Then he said, "Master Fang didn't mean it, it's okay."
As soon as these words came out.
Zhu Changzhi felt as if his Ren and Du meridians were opened.
Your Majesty likes brothels.
Well, that must be the case, after all, we ate well in the palace.
If you suddenly come across a wild one and want to try it, he will understand.
"Your Majesty, this place is desolate. It would be better for Your Majesty to move to the provincial capital. Although the provincial capital may not be as good as the capital, it is still better than here!"
Shen Xia waved his hand: "That's not necessary. I came here because Lord Song came here to give advice on agriculture. My dear ministers, please don't bother me."
Zhu Changzhi: Your Majesty has no use for me.
How can that work?
Zhu Changzhi's face fell, and he was about to cry: "Your Majesty, when I think of you in such a bitter and cold place, how can I go back?"
Shen Xia opened her mouth: You are at this age, why do you cry so easily?
Shen Xia was helpless.
Later, I remembered that I had written a letter earlier to ask Song Jin to send someone from the Imperial Court.
Even if it comes, it will take time.
We can’t wait until the people from the Royal Company arrive before we can start mining, so let’s use the locals first!
Shen Xia looked at the Lords: "Alright! Lords, please stay here! It just so happens that I have plans for the development of this county. Seeing the people not having enough to eat and not having warm clothes, I can't sleep or eat well."
The gentlemen knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is wise."
Shen Xia: It’s not easy for me not to lose myself in all the flattery over the years!
"Everyone, get up! There's no need to kneel again and again when you're out in public. I don't need your flattery. What I need are wise officials who can lead the people out of their plight and lead them to a good life."
Shen Xia looked at Fang Bingsheng and said, "For example, when Lord Fang learned about the hardships of the people, he immediately sought out Lord Song and planted suitable crops based on the local soil and environment."
In other places, the people have no land.
The people here have plenty of land, but no one wants to buy it.
But drought does not produce food.
It really is true that everyone has their own difficulties!
Fang Bingsheng listened to His Majesty praising him.
My mood has been really up and down tonight.
The sorrow on his face disappeared in an instant.
The eyes became bright and lively.
The Southern Wilds are sparsely populated.
So there are only ten counties.
Their county can be said to be the largest and the poorest. Every time he went to the provincial capital to report on his work, he could not help but mention how low his status was.
But now.
Just based on your Majesty's praise.
Hahaha.......
You can show off for the rest of your life!
Shen Xia looked at Lord Fang and said, "Didn't Lord Fang say before that there are plenty of salt mines here? Let's stop here today. Gather at the yamen at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. County magistrates with local salt mines and black soil should come. If there are no locals, there is no need to come."
When everyone heard this, some county magistrates laughed, while others cried.
Although I don’t know what His Majesty’s instructions are, who doesn’t want to spend two more days with His Majesty!
He was a wise ruler!
If you have the emperor's help, your future path may be different.
The Lords still don't know what Your Majesty means.
Shen Xia took Xiao Fu, Ling Heng and the others away.
Leaving behind a group of confused adults.
Everyone respectfully saw His Majesty off.
When Shen Xia came out,
I saw a group of people gathered at the door.
See Shen Xia come out.
Everyone kneeled down.
"I pay my respects to His Majesty. Long live the emperor."
"Long live the emperor..."
A series of sounds came one after another.
Very loud.
When the people heard that Your Majesty was here, they all came over, hoping to see your holy face.
After all, they still like the current emperor very much.
Although their current life is still hard for Shen Xia.
But they suffered more before, and now they have reduced a lot of taxes.
You won’t starve to death.
Your Majesty also opened the door for reading.
Before, they couldn't read a single word.
Nowadays, anyone who has enough food to eat sends their children to school.
Although they are in such a backward place.
But every month I know about the major events outside, and even the major events in the capital.
Your Majesty shares the country's progress and development with the people of Dajin every month.
Let them feel that the current emperor has proved through his actions that he truly loves the people.
So even though their current situation is not good, they are already very grateful.
As long as things get better, it’s okay if things go slowly.
