The Empress came ashore and beheaded the meritorious officials, forcing me to wear the yellow robe

The wedding of Li Jize and Wang Yuanya is getting closer and closer.

Three days...

Huang Suqiu, the mother, still did not leave Li Jize, worried that her silly son might have a "sometimes good, sometimes sometimes bad" brain.

So, she kept following him around and couldn't be driven away.

These three days...

What is Li Jize doing?

After receiving the imperial edict, the land, and the gold...

Li Jize went crazy!

He spent money lavishly and continuously recruited disaster victims from the city, calling it "farming"!

If someone wants to harm Li Jize, just "buying people's hearts" will be enough to make him suffer.

But oddly enough...

In the entire Da Qi court, no one impeached Li Jize, and no one even questioned his behavior.

why?

Due to the constant natural and man-made disasters in Da Qi, a severe drought broke out in Shaanxi.

The endless stream of disaster victims makes it impossible to survive!

They either rose up in rebellion or fled famine and came directly to the capital at the feet of the emperor.

The court was in a state of chaos!

He is either dealing with the "rebel rebellion" or busy dealing with the victims in the "royal capital". If he fails to handle one of them well, what if the victims under the emperor's feet also rebel?

and so……

The officials in the royal capital would love for these wealthy people to take the initiative to provide disaster relief or take the victims away.

Huang Suqiu, the mother, saw with her own eyes that during these three days, her son Li Jize took in batches of disaster victims one after another.

When it comes to farming, there are too many people!

As for relief, the money is too little!

The total amount of gold awarded by the empress was only 100 taels, which sounds impressive, but in this feudal period, the ratio of gold to silver was 1:10, and in some exaggerated cases it could reach 1:13.

So, a hundred ounces of gold, to support so many people...

Totally not enough!

I watched my son taking care of the victims, dividing the land for them to build houses, and directing them to cook.

The food was particularly good. Even though there were many hungry people outside, he served rice to everyone for every meal.

Seeing that her son was about to spend money recklessly again, Huang Suqiu rushed forward and grabbed Li Jize's arm.

Under the bewildered gazes of the many disaster victims, she smiled awkwardly and pulled the bewildered Li Jize, "Son, can you please spare a moment to talk?"

Soon, they arrived at one of the thatched huts. Huang Suqiu sighed, "Son, you...you..."

Looking at the bewildered Li Jize, she felt aggrieved for a long time and really wanted to ask, "Is your brain too stimulated?"

"Oh, mother! What on earth do you want to do?"

Li Jize hadn't finished arranging the work yet, so he had no choice but to be dragged away by my mother.

Huang Suqiu sighed and said, "You should be the one asking this! We have good intentions in helping the disaster victims, but we must act within our means. Giving them some porridge is good enough, why did you bring it home? Even if we want to farm, we don't need so many people!"

Li Jize: "..."

He couldn't tell his mother, "I want to rebel! I want to recruit soldiers!"

Now that Da Qi is plagued by natural disasters and man-made disasters, the victims have nowhere to go, so they all ran to the capital of Da Qi. This is a perfect opportunity.

But Huang Suqiu didn’t understand!

Even as Li Jin's loyal wife, she didn't even dare to think about rebellion.

Li Jize scratched his head, feeling a little troubled.

After thinking about it...

He smiled and said, "Mom! Don't worry about the money. I have my own way of making money!"

Huang Suqiu: “???”

Are you kidding me?

She admitted that her son was very outstanding, he was the General of Tiance!

But he only knows how to march, fight wars and manage internal affairs. How can he do business?

Unfortunately, Li Jize had no intention of explaining to her and turned around to get back to work.

Huang Suqiu reacted and stepped forward again, grabbing her son's collar and pulling him back.

"Mother, my dear mother! What on earth do you want to do?"

Li Jize was very annoyed. He was an orphan without a mother and envied others.

Now that I have a mother, why do I feel a little annoyed?

Huang Suqiu rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily, "Whether you're making money or recruiting disaster victims, I can ignore you, but what day is tomorrow?"

Li Jize: “???”

He just looked at Huang Suqiu strangely, unable to think clearly for a while.

Tomorrow? What day is tomorrow?

Huang Suqiu sighed and looked at her "silly son". She said helplessly, "Now, don't blame me for not reminding you! In three days, it's your lifelong event! These past three days, you've been busy either building a straw hut or recruiting disaster victims. What? You're getting married tomorrow, are you planning to let your bride live here?"

Li Jize was stunned, he was so busy that he forgot about it!

In order to avoid his engagement, the empress directly arranged his marriage with the "ugly woman" Wang Yuanya.

Although……

Li Jize was very resistant! Let's not talk about whether this woman is ugly or not.

The key point is that this marriage was not his own will, he was forced by the empress.

But Li Jize also understood that in this feudal era, imperial power was supreme! What would be the consequences of disobeying the imperial order? It goes without saying!

Until his own strength is strong enough, he can't say "no" to the empress.

"Mother, don't worry! I will obey your order. This marriage..."

"This marriage must go back to the Li family!"

Before Li Jize finished speaking, Huang Suqiu interrupted him and talked around in circles for a long time. It seemed that she was waiting for him here.

Li Jize: "..."

In an instant, his face looked a little grim.

Huang Suqiu looked at her son and forced a smile. She sighed, "Ah, a new daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law after all! What about when she pays respects to her parents?"

Speaking of which...

She grabbed her son Li Jize's hand and said earnestly, "Jize, something that shouldn't have happened has happened! Sometimes I think, you don't have to be the King of Qin or the General of Heavenly Strategy. You can just marry an ordinary wife and farm! It's good for your family to live happily. Even if he has all kinds of faults, he is still your father! You still have the blood of the Li family flowing in your veins, right?"

Li Jize didn't say a word from beginning to end, but just stared into Huang Suqiu's eyes and found that her tone was almost pleading.

Think about it...

The secrets here are the victims, the houses, and a lot of gunpowder stored.

It’s a marriage, not to mention the relatives from the Li family, what if the relatives from the bride’s family come?

Li Jize did not approve of this marriage. He thought marriage was just a temporary solution and he did not care whether it was grand or not, or whether he would pay his respects to his parents.

only……

Li Jize didn't want to cause any more trouble before his wings grew stronger and before firearms were forged.

Even if I want to turn against the Empress and the Li family, I have to wait until my knife is sharp enough!

and so……

Under the gaze of his mother Huang Suqiu, he nodded in agreement.
