As he said this, he immediately took out a cloak from the side and put it on Zhu Yunhuan.
Zhu Yunhuan certainly didn't care much about the slight cold wind. After all, his previous situation was too difficult. In order to improve his survival ability, he never missed a day of exercise. Besides, he was now at an age when he was least afraid of the cold.
Zhu Yunxun chuckled and looked down through the open window. "It's one thing inside, let's listen to what's being said outside."
Hearing Zhu Yunhuan say this.
Ma Sanbao's attention was then diverted to the outside of the window.
Along with the cold wind, the hustle and bustle and noisy discussions below the window came in through the window:
"What? It's for making cloth for those people? Their lives are lives, but our lives are not lives!?"
"We can't afford expensive charcoal, so every winter we can only collect firewood to burn, which is enough to get us through the winter."
"I don't know how much bark and wood the Industry Department has requisitioned this year. Even the wood they don't need and don't value isn't enough for the entire population of Yingtian Prefecture! There's no firewood for this winter..."
"Yeah! Why should we use our lives to pay for theirs?"
"Freezing us to death, what's so wise about that?"
"Dark Lord!"
"..."
Today is the date when the newspaper goes on sale. Not only those who gather in teahouses and taverns and like to chat about everything under the sun and discuss history and politics have received this news, but peddlers and ordinary people in the streets and alleys have also begun to receive this news one after another.
The class differences are huge.
Of course, the people in Zuihe Tower would not risk their lives just because they lost a few pieces of firewood, so what they saw was the so-called world and the so-called wisdom, and they could also be instigated by the marketing accounts that Zhu Yunhuan had arranged in advance.
however.
These people who have to work outside in the freezing cold to make a living have to worry about it.
If for no other reason, they are the ones whose interests have been harmed the most, and this type of people often make up the vast majority of ordinary people.
"This..." Ma Sanbao's face changed slightly as he listened to the faint voices coming from outside. He asked in confusion, "Your Majesty has clearly done a great deed, so why do they seem to be scolding him even more fiercely than before?"
"Your Majesty, this action has saved countless poor people in the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty has even been cursed for it. How dare they..."
Before Ma Sanbao could finish his words, Zhu Yunhuan raised his hand to interrupt him. Even though he could hear the noises outside, there was no anger on his face: "Because they are not the ones who benefited."
"Overall, many people in the Ming Dynasty were saved, but what does this have to do with them? They even have to pay a price for it."
"It's understandable to have such complaints."
"When you are in a high position, you must not be gradually infected by the mentality of 'Why not eat meat?'"
Zhu Yunhuan looked at the people coming and going outside the window without any feeling of sadness or joy, watched the news spread among the crowd, and listened to the people's many complaints. It seemed that he was warning Ma Sanbao, and it seemed that he was warning himself.
Just like in the past, the media tossed around all sorts of averages, but in reality, where was the world truly that peaceful? The suffering of those who were averaged out was only visible to themselves.
Therefore, the marketing accounts that Zhu Yunhuan found were all aimed at influencing this group of people in the middle and upper classes. His purpose was to use their influence to quickly spread the news to other parts of the Ming Dynasty and win the hearts of the people whose interests had not been encroached upon or who had even benefited from it.
As for the lower-class people in Yingtian Prefecture.
When their interests are truly infringed, a hundred marketing accounts will be useless. Instead, it will seem ironic and even have a counterproductive effect.
Hearing Zhu Yunhuan's words.
Ma Sanbao showed a look of sudden realization on his face and said, "Your Majesty is right. It was I who was short-sighted.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but look with awe at his master who was standing by the window, with his hands behind his back and looking down with a slightly compassionate look.
I thought to myself, "With such a monarch, the Ming Dynasty will surely prosper."
After a pause, Ma Sanbao couldn't help but sigh softly, frowning and saying, "It's just... I still feel wronged for Your Majesty. Your Majesty is clearly... thinking about the Ming Dynasty and the people..."
Zhu Yunhuan looked down with a serious look and was silent for a moment.
Then he turned around and returned to his original position: "Close the window."
"What injustice do they have? They used to curse at each other fiercely, but what kind of expressions do they have now? Even though I requisitioned their firewood to alleviate a temporary emergency, this suffering should not have been borne by them."
"I won't let them bear it either."
Zhu Yunxun said this in a firm tone, and then he slowly took a sip of tea.
Ma Sanbao closed the window and followed. When he heard Zhu Yunhuan's words, he suddenly remembered something. His eyes lit up and he said, "Yes! How could I have forgotten! Everyone else thought it was the Coal Transport Department that was stubbornly acting on His Majesty's part! His Majesty still has anthracite!"
Speaking of it.
Ma Sanbao couldn't help but feel something in his heart, and then he realized that his master had probably anticipated all this and had made preparations long ago.
He couldn't help but sigh, "Your Majesty truly has foresight! He also... possesses a heart of benevolence unmatched by anyone else!"
While talking.
Ma Sanbao couldn't help but secretly glance at his master.
He secretly felt a sense of wonder in his heart: "Even throughout history, I have never seen a person like Your Majesty. Although many of Your Majesty's ideas and actions are indeed somewhat unorthodox, and even if they were known to the world, he would be condemned as treasonous, but his actual words, actions, and achievements are unmatched..."
