Chapter 212 This is simply robbery!
real or fake?
Is his daughter so outrageous?
It would have been fine if he had predicted the rainstorm in the capital through a dream, but he even dreamt accurately that the number of civilian casualties would exceed ten thousand?
Is this really a dream, or does Xiaowu also have a life choice simulation system?
If this is true, then there is no need to worry about the prosperity of his country!
The more Emperor Xuanwu thought about it, the more excited he became. All the unhappiness caused by a series of troubles caused by the crown prince's selling of official positions seemed to have disappeared at this moment.
Emperor Xuanwu was so excited that he almost couldn't wait to ask Li Dehai to find Yun Shu to come to the imperial study.
Well, it seems that his daughter is not an ordinary person!
Look at that straight little waist, those bright black eyes, that obvious imperial look, this...
"...Father?"
Being looked at by Emperor Xuanwu with such an unreadable gaze, Yun Shu felt a little uneasy. He could not help but shout at him again:
"Is there something you want me to do?"
"Ah."
Yun Shu's call brought him back to his senses. Emperor Xuanwu suppressed his expression and handed over the impeachment letter on the table:
"have a look."
"..."
Such a familiar line, could it be that she was impeached again?
She took the memorial with deft movements and opened it. As expected, the impeachment against her was full of righteous words, filled with righteous indignation, and she would not tolerate it, would not give in, would not turn back, would not turn back, would not…
Never mind. That’s unfair.
Yun Shu closed the memorial with a snap, his face full of displeasure:
"Father, didn't you say that you have been reorganizing the court recently, and the officials in the court are all busy with their own affairs?
How come you still have so much free time?"
"?"
This kid doesn't even try to pretend now, right?
Emperor Xuanwu patted the table and reminded her with a stern face:
“Now you are the one being impeached!”
"But his impeachment is totally unreasonable!"
Yunshu said confidently:
"After all, I own a restaurant, so I will check the accounts occasionally.
Putting aside other things, how could I not know the price of grain?
Things always fluctuate. The price of brown rice for ordinary people is 12 to 15 cents per dou, which is a normal price.
If it snows or rains, eighteen or nineteen cents a bucket is reasonable.
If you want to say it's unreasonable, then the price of grain soared to more than 200 coins per bushel during the famine in Pengzhou four years ago. That's unreasonable!"
"But now some people believe that you are the one who caused the two cents that floated up!"
Emperor Xuanwu snorted lightly, deliberately not expressing his attitude.
Then he asked the question that he really cared about:
"It says that you told Tang Muzhi in person that you dreamed of a flood in the capital. Is this true?"
"Yes."
Yun Shu's voice was muffled, and it was clear that he was unhappy again:
"My son's dream was so real, and it happened to encounter so many coincidences.
If it were you, Father, would you pretend nothing happened?"
"So you deliberately said those words to Tang Muzhi so that the people nearby could hear them?" Emperor Xuanwu's eyes moved slightly:
"Have you ever thought that if food prices rise as a result, and the flood in your dream does not occur,
Not only will the officials in the court impeach you, but the people in the city who have to spend more money to buy food will also resent you for this?"
"When I had someone spread the news secretly, I specifically said that the flood in my dream would happen in one or two months.
Even if the common people in Beijing believed this, at most they would stockpile enough food to last them two or three months.
There is enough food in the capital, so even if everyone stores food at home, the increase in food prices will still be within an acceptable range.
Even if the people are resentful, their resentment is not too great and is still within the acceptable range for me, your son."
Yun Shu lowered his head and played with his sleeves. When he finished speaking, his tone seemed to carry a hint of grievance.
It seemed as if she really couldn't be sure whether the rainstorm would come or not.
Did he think too much?
Was she really just dreaming?
Emperor Xuanwu looked at Yunshu thoughtfully, and was about to say something.
Yun Shu suddenly raised his head again and said solemnly:
"I have actually thought about this carefully before.
If this dream of mine is true, it means that this flood will really cause huge damage to the people in the capital. The damage is so great that even God cannot bear it, so he let me have this dream.
If I, because I am worried that the dream is fake and I don't want to bear the possible blame, I will bury the matter deep in my heart and stand aside and watch.
When the flood really comes, I will regret it for the rest of my life!"
"..."
Yes, he is much more responsible than that useless prince!
He really cares about the people.
Moreover, they had thought carefully and considered all possible scenarios in advance, even if the flood did not occur.
Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly, and was very satisfied with the performance of his little boy.
But... does she really not have a life choice simulation system?
Emperor Xuanwu, who still hadn't completely dispelled his suspicion, narrowed his eyes, and suddenly leaned back on the chair behind him, and said in an unfathomable tone:
“What you said does make some sense.
But those ministers in the court who impeached you cannot be fooled by just saying that it was a real dream.
If you want them to believe this, you have to prove yourself first."
"prove?"
Yun Shu was stunned:
"How can I prove that I'm dreaming? I can't let you ministers have the same dream, can I?"
"Precognitive dreams are not something that ordinary people can have."
Emperor Xuanwu said quietly:
"Before I summoned you here, I flipped through a few books and read the relevant records in ancient texts.
People like you who can have precognitive dreams before major events happen usually have much more accurate intuition than the average person.
I will take two teacups and hide a jade ring in one of them.
Tell me based on your intuition which box the jade ring is in.
If what you said is correct, I will reject all the impeachment petitions on your behalf.
But if I guess wrong... as compensation, I will give all the dividends from your Tianwaitian Restaurant and Xianting to the people!"
Such a large sum of money must be very important to Xiaowu now.
If she really had a life choice simulation system, at such an important moment, it should tell her which teacup the jade ring was in, right?
Emperor Xuanwu felt that his move was very clever.
But when Yun Shu heard this, he was dumbfounded.
Although it's rude to say this,
But what the hell is her father talking about?
Is this something a normal person can say?
There's no way to get something for nothing like this, this is clearly robbery!
