After traveling through time, I was spotted by the new emperor

Chapter 309: So easy to coax!



Chapter 309: So easy to coax!

The court was closed on this day.

Although the Yuwen clan still had to be dealt with, it was no longer a cause for concern for Ye Wuwei. Therefore, he had somewhat indulged Qi Wushuang last night.

The consequence of indulgence is body aches.

If Ye Wuwei walked down the stairs at this moment, he would definitely be limping.

Despite this, Qi Wushuang was still unsatisfied like a glutton.

The two of them were lying on the bed, and Qi Wushuang's hands were intentionally or unintentionally igniting Ye Wuwei.

However, no matter how Qi Wushuang instigated the fire, Ye Wuwei, who had made a great sacrifice last night, did not respond to him.

"Wu Wei, you don't like me anymore."

Ye Wuwei was too lazy to pay attention to Qi Wushuang and just closed his eyes to rest.

Seeing that beauty couldn't seduce Ye Wuwei, Qi Wushuang decided to seek attention in another way.

"Wu Wei, now that the national treasury has silver, the income from the glass workshop no longer needs to fill the hole in the national treasury. What do you want?"

Ye Wuwei finally responded:

“Save the silver first, so that it can be used in bad years or disasters in the future.

But the Mid-Autumn Festival is just a few days away, and I think you could distribute meat and mooncakes to the people of Chamdo to let them feel the court's care for the people."

“Will that make the people desire more from the court?

For example, meat and mooncakes were distributed during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, but do you want more next year?

If the imperial court stops distributing money, will they feel that the imperial court has let them down? "

Ye Wuwei thought about it and felt that what Qi Wushuang said made sense.

"That's it. During the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, an official tent will be set up to distribute meat porridge. During the Spring Festival this year, everyone can receive one pound of meat by presenting their household registration or other identification.

This not only reflects the court's care for the people, but also prevents the people from having too many expectations due to the large amount of supplies distributed.

Even if New Year supplies are not distributed next year, the people will not be angry with the court.

As for the future, when people’s lives become more prosperous, there will be no need to distribute supplies. Instead, we can hold more activities to entertain the people.

For example, the lion dance competition during the Lantern Festival, the dragon boat race during the Dragon Boat Festival, the bonfire party during the Autumn Festival, etc.

This will better strengthen the cohesion between the court and the people."

Seeing that Ye Wuwei was finally willing to pay attention to him, Qi Wushuang secretly congratulated himself on being so smart: the method he had thought of worked.

"Wu Wei, all you think about is the people. Don't you want anything for yourself?"

"I have everything I need now. I have you and Master. If I don't satisfy you, I will be punished by heaven."

"But your daily expenses are far less refined than Qi Yushen and the others."

"My current food, clothing, and daily expenses are the same as yours. If you, as the emperor, can do it, why can't I?

Besides, as long as the food tastes good, I think boiled fish fillets are better than braised shark fin; Maoxuewang tastes better than Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.

As for the clothes I wear, I don’t think that brocade is much better than cotton clothes.

Even though I was dressed in rags, the officials in Chamdo were polite to me.

If that's the case, why should I be so particular?"

"But they have many servants to serve them when they eat, but you don't."

Thinking of this, Qi Wushuang felt unhappy again: he felt that he had not been able to give Ye Wuwei the best life.

“Why didn’t I?

Isn’t the food prepared by the imperial kitchen?

Wasn’t it sent by the palace eunuchs?

Even when we were eating, didn’t you always pick up food for me?

They don’t get this kind of honor, only I do.”

Qi Wushuang became happy again after being praised by Ye Wuwei: "I will pick up food for you from now on."

Really...

So easy to appease!
