The list of beautiful women was sent to the Royal study by Gu Taining, the Minister of rites.

Yunqing takes the list, ignores the name and family background, and only looks at the total number of people. After watching it, Yunqing frowned and said, "how come there are only thirty-six candidates?" There are hundreds of civilian and military generals with four grades and above, but the number of this lady is only so.

Gu replied bowingly, "the emperor, only these thirty-six people meet the requirements."

This draft is different from the previous draft. The previous draft is rigid. If there are girls of suitable age in the family, they must run. Of course, if there is no daughter at home or the age is not right, there is no way. And this draft, first of all, requires a legitimate daughter, and must be born by the right wife, not counting those recorded in the name; second, to read and read; third, between the ages of 13 to 16; fourth, one family can make it; fifth, not willing to be elected, not demanding.

Nowadays, there are only a few women who can read and read. Even if many of the girls of the official family have never read a book, they can read a few words at most. So, that's half the condition. In addition, the demand is for a legitimate daughter, which has gone to a large number of people. We also have to let age go more widely, or we will have fewer people. As for the fourth condition, as long as the girls who meet the first three conditions basically run. The reason is very simple. Everyone knows that the empress is a shrew, so this draft must not be for the emperor to choose a concubine, but for several princes.

When Yunqing heard this, he put down the list. He would not take care of the specific matter of choosing a concubine. He nodded and said, "I know about it."

As soon as Gu Taining left, Yuxi came in from outside.

Yunqing gives the list to Yuxi and says, "just in time, this is the draft list sent by Gu Taining. Have a look."

Yuxi glanced and put it down.

Yunqing handed a book to Yuxi and said, "I've allocated 200000 liang of silver to go out, isn't it enough?" The money that the Treasury just deposited will soon be used up again.

Money is needed for disaster relief, for the maintenance of dams and for the salaries of officials. Of course, the largest part is military expenditure. For millions of soldiers and horses, only military pay and food are a huge sum of money each year.

When he was a general, the army pay and food were not delivered in time. He and his subordinates did not know how many times they scolded the court. This will sit in this position, just know how difficult it is.

Yuxi said with a smile, "it's ok now. It was really difficult in those days a few years ago." Last year, the weather was favorable, and there was no major war ahead. The taxes collected were barely met. The money Tian Yang made for her has not been moved in the bank.

"Hard work for you." A few years ago, he focused on military affairs, and Yuxi dealt with government affairs. Although I know that silver and money are not good enough, I don't have such a profound experience now.

Yuxi smiled and said, "if this year and next can be as smooth as last year, then we will be much more relaxed." Although there are also natural disasters, such as last year's Sichuan earthquake, the scope is very small, only one county. Jiangnan, Shandong and other places are all good harvests.

"The old man is merciful. He will always be in good weather." Now the money is a little tight, but the government's granary is full of food. If you have food, you will not panic.

Hearing this, Yuxi said with a smile, "if so, we can send troops to Liaodong in five years at most." Yan matchless is a thorn in their hearts. No, it's hard to sleep and eat. However, the battle effectiveness of the Liaodong army is no less than that of the northwest army. If we want to fight, it will be a long-term war. But war requires money. At that time, the Treasury couldn't give a cent. In this case, the most important natural thing is to restore production and develop the economy. However, when the conditions are mature, we must send troops to Liaodong.

When Yunqing heard this, his face was a little dignified: "because of the cultivation of potato in Liaodong these years, the food is not as tense as before." Although the weather in Liaodong is only suitable for planting once. But the high yield of potato, only a season also greatly eased the pressure of Yan matchless.

This kind of thing, Yuxi also did not expect: "the total benefit is still the people." The promotion of potato benefits people all over the world.

Speaking of this, Yuxi told Yunqing a good news: "Tian Yang brought the sweet potato from the fanren, the yield per mu is nearly 3000 Jin. In the future, even in the event of natural disasters, people will not be cut off for a while and a half. " It also needs water. But sweet potatoes can be planted in dry land.

Yun Qing is also very happy: "let Tian Yang pay more attention and find more high-yield grain seeds to come back." If we find more of the same, there will be more food for people to eat.

Yu Xi said with a smile: "you still need to say that. You can't see the businessman, but if it wasn't for the money Tian Yang made in his business these years, we would have had a harder time. " In the first year, the profit was only one million, but now the profit has reached four or five million. These silver coins greatly relieved Yuxi's pressure.

Yunqing also has his insistence: "it's not right to compete with the people. When the Treasury is full, the business will not be done again. "

Yuxi said: "it's true that businessmen value profits, but they also bring business tax. And also rely on them, the goods will flow, the economy can soon drive up Without them, the economy cannot develop. If the economy can't develop, it's just a empty talk to increase tax revenue.

Yunqing can't understand Yuxi any more. After hearing this, he looks at Yuxi and asks, "what do you want to do?"

"I want to abolish the law that businessmen can't pass the imperial examination for three generations." The status of merchants is the lowest in the city. However, if this law is abolished, the descendants of merchants can also take part in the imperial examination, and the common people's merchants will have no such scruples in the future.

Yunqing disagreed: "have you ever thought about it? If the descendants of businessmen can take the imperial examination, then the officials and businessmen will be integrated."

"Yu Xi said with a smile," as long as you add one, if you have children who are directly related to the government, you can't do business. "

Yunqing still doesn't think it's right.

Yuxi jokingly said: "three generations of merchants can't join the government, and there are also collusion between officials and businessmen. As long as the emperor is the emperor of Ming Dynasty, the people can live and work in peace and contentment. None of the others is a big problem. "

Although Yunqing is a little old-fashioned, he has one advantage. He can listen to the advice.

Hesitated, cloud Qing said: "this matter, with the ministers under discussion to decide."

"They won't agree." Seeing Yunqing looking at her, Yuxi said with a smile, "the son of the merchant can be an official, indirectly damaging their interests." In the family of senior officials, there is basically the filial piety sent by merchants. If the children of the merchants can also enter the official examination, they will not only seize the place of the examination with their children, but also won't cling to them in the future.

Yunqing thought and nodded, "since you feel good, let's try." If the impact is not good, then it will be banned.

From the middle of April, the ladies continued to arrive in Beijing. The imperial court has a special place for setting up the ladies, but if the ladies want to live in the homes of relatives and friends, they can only enter the palace for election within the prescribed time.

Yuxi called Yang Duoming to come over and said to him, "wait for the ladies to enter the palace and write down all their words and deeds." Although she has confidence in her own vision, she can't guarantee that she won't lose sight. The choice of a crown prince and a concubine is not to be allowed to slip away.

Yang Duoming nodded, "yes." Today, Yang Duoming is the general envoy of the general secretary. The officials are not only five kinds, but his duty is to supervise hundreds of officials. So, power is great.

When Yang duo reports that he has finished going out, Yunqing and Yuxi say, "I want Yu Zhi to check all the beauties in secret."

The couple still have a tacit understanding. Yuxi said, "are you worried about the problems of these beautiful women?"

"If Yan Wushuang gives a swap, the consequences will be unimaginable." He was once bitten by a snake for ten years. As for Yan Wushuang, we must guess him with the greatest malice.

I think it will cost a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to investigate all the people, and it is unnecessary. Yu Xi said, "wait until the candidate is confirmed, and let people secretly investigate."

Yunqing nods and agrees.

After two days, it was xuange'er's holiday. Yuxi asked youge'er to pick him up.

This day, brother Xuan went back to the palace with brother you. See Yu Xi, Xuan elder brother son asks: "Niang, specially let a younger brother call me to come back, what urgent matter?"

"It's not an emergency. It's your life." If we can solve all the marriages of the four brothers in this draft, we will save her a lot of things.

Xuange'er looks up at Yuxi, and then lowers his head. His face is not red, but his ears are red.

Youge'er thinks it's nothing to be shy about. He doesn't need Yuxi to say, "Mom, I believe in your vision. You think it's right."

Yuxi said with a smile: "then you have to tell me, what do you like? Is it fat or thin, quiet or lively? "

Most people like slim girls, but brother youer's preferences are quite different from others: "Mom, you can find a fatter girl for me!"

Brother Xuan hurriedly said, "ah you, you have to think clearly. This fat girl is not good-looking. " He must not find a fat man to be his daughter-in-law. For brother Xuan, beauty is the first requirement.

"The skinny one has a bad appetite. I'm going to marry such a daughter-in-law. Eating with her will definitely affect my appetite. " There is nothing more important to a good eater than a good one.

After the meal, brother you added, "Mom, just find someone who is a little fat, but not a big fat one."

Xuange'er can't understand youge'er's preferences. Being a little fat is not fat.

Yu Xi said with a smile, "apart from this, there is no other requirement?"

Brother you raised another request: "be lively. If it's too dull, I have nothing to say to her. Other, the mother sees to do

Yuxi turns around and asks xuange'er, "what about you? What kind of one do you want? " She checks the family traits and tries to meet the requirements of her children.

Brother Xuan is embarrassed to say.

You elder brother son said instead of him: "the third elder brother likes the beautiful and talented, and also has to be gentle and kind." After a pause, you elder brother added: "elder brother three said that elder sister two was too fierce. You have to find someone more gentle than elder sister two."

Yuxi looked at xiangxuan's elder brother and said, "you can't be too soft. You can't even deal with common affairs." Good in heart is good, but too good is weakness. She can't see such a woman.

Xuan elder brother son busy way: "Niang is in charge."
