Chapter 1850 His heart can be punished
"Da Yong was established in a hurry, and many rebels fled in a panic during the chaos. They were like loaches that were hard to catch. Now someone has finally emerged. For the sake of peace in the world and for the sake of future generations, it is my duty to be busy."
Chen Changli and Wan Shufang actually enjoyed it. After all, in addition to monitoring all officials, the Jinyiwei also had to pay attention to people's livelihood, so they could get to know a lot of information.
Whenever the news was compiled, Wan Shufang and Chen Changli had to avoid their three sons and compile them into a book while eating melons.
In this way, they gained a lot of knowledge without realizing it. Of course, it was not easy to tell the emperor about this knowledge. Chen Changli could only suppress his emotions and speak seriously.
"Your Majesty, my wife and I can set off tomorrow."
"Do you need me to send you some more people?"
The emperor asked with concern after hearing this.
Chen Changli has always been calm and steady. Now, when he heard the emperor's words, he rarely lost his composure. "The new officials are busy as tops. Your Majesty actually wants to assign them tasks?"
The emperor thought of the group of people who were so busy that they had no time to rest, and immediately said: "I am not a devil, how can I keep exploiting them?"
He coughed lightly and continued, "I just want the secret guards to help you and let them return to normal life."
The secret guards were a group of shadows, and they were indeed very capable, but when Dayong began to stabilize, the emperor hoped that they could appear in public openly.
Chen Changli felt the emperor's good intentions and thought of the people in his hands, so he quickly expressed his opinion, "I understand what your majesty means. I will arrange for the people."
"Don't rush now. Wait until the patrol is completed before making plans." Things have to be done step by step. You can't achieve everything in one go. The emperor knew this clearly. After giving Chen Changli some careful instructions, he sent someone to see him off.
Chen Changli went home and continued to eat melons with Wan Shufang, and then sighed: "As long as the noble families who are high above do not care about it and do not involve interests, they will not help the people who live a hard life at all."
"Your Majesty's original intention of reopening the imperial examination this time was good, but there are too few ordinary people who can read, so most of the people on the list are children of aristocratic families, and a few are from poor families."
"Although the poor and the noble families don't get along, they have been doing pretty well recently under the suppression of your majesty. But I think the officials from the noble families will eventually suppress the poor."
As Chen Changli spoke, he began to feel worried. There were too few people from humble backgrounds who could become officials, and they were no match for the aristocratic families at all. Once the world was truly peaceful, there would probably be a drama of forming cliques for personal gain and fighting among factions.
Wan Shufang's eyes moved slightly, but she said, "Party disputes may not show signs until later. Right now, I think everyone will be busy with the things in front of them and won't think about anything else."
"As for the most worrying noble families, they may have anticipated this and are willing to make calculations in advance, but do you think His Majesty will let them do so?"
Reaching out her hand and holding Chen Changli tightly, Wan Shufang said in a rather cold tone: "Your Majesty is decisive in killing people, so he will not let these people get what they want. As for your Majesty's descendants..."
She glanced at Chen Changli and smiled, "Your Majesty doesn't care about the dynasty being destroyed. Do you think he will try his best to make everything perfect?"
"Besides, human hearts are the hardest to control. Even if His Majesty wants to do that, he is too old to care about so many things. The most he can do is to do his job well and let the people live a good life."
"Just have a clear conscience." Chen Changli listened to Wan Shufang's words, "As for the children, I think children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so there is no need to overdo some things. Otherwise, if we do everything well, they will not know how to do anything. When we are gone, they will not be able to deal with other people's calculations."
When Chen Changli said this, he thought of the two brothers Chen Ping who almost had a conflict. The two should have put aside their past grudges, become good brothers, and face the outside world together. However, there was a gap in their hearts, and everything they showed was a discord between their words and their hearts.
"Don't worry about it. If you keep doing this, you'll get wrinkles." Wan Shufang listened to his words, realized why he was so busy during this period, and immediately reached out and touched his forehead.
Chen Changli grabbed her mischievous hand and said with a gentle smile: "Spending some time to teach people can always teach them well. What I am worried about is that their peace and tranquility are all illusions."
"Then let them get busy. It would be best if they are so busy that they are dizzy and can't think of anything." Wan Shufang had no intention of showing mercy. She wanted to give most of the tasks to them right away.
Chen Changli had this idea in mind for a long time, but he didn't know how to bring it up to Wan Shufang. Now that he realized that the couple had the same idea, he immediately started discussing the matter.
After the discussion, the couple took their three children out the next day to tour the world. On the way, the couple ran into Cui Shi and greeted him, "Brother Cui, after the matter in Xingyun Town was over, why did you leave without saying goodbye?"
Chen Changli had previously agreed to hold a farewell banquet for Cui Shi, but he did not expect that after catching the Yang family, Cui Shi left without saying goodbye.
"Why are you and your wife here?" Hearing Chen Changli's words, Cui Shi was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he asked about his situation with concern.
"We have been ordered to travel around the world and train the new supervisory agencies." Chen Changli invited, "Brother Cui, you left without saying goodbye last time. My wife and I were very worried about you. This time we meet, why don't you come with us?"
Cui Shi hurriedly shook his head: "I'm busy, I really don't have time. I appreciate your kindness, but forget about the invitation."
He repeatedly refused Chen Changli's invitation and rode away on horseback. Chen Changli came to Wan Shufang and sighed: "I wish we could be as fast as the wind someday."
When Wan Shufang heard this, she thought of the encounter with the assassin. She rolled her eyes at him and continued on her way. "Let's talk about it after the matter is resolved. Don't glorify the path that has no choice."
Chen Changli said no more and led his men to catch up with him. Chen Ping and his two brothers were making faces at the back, as if discussing the relationship between Chen Changli and Cui Shi. Although they said nothing, Chen Changli noticed it and immediately turned around and glared at them, "Why are you shaking your head? Hurry up and catch up. If your mother gets lost, I will only hold you responsible."
Chen Ping felt that he was the boss, so he quickly came to him and said, "Dad, I have a suggestion, I hope you can adopt it."
Chen Hai's mind suddenly changed, and he was filled with righteous indignation: "Brother, don't even think about betraying me. Dad, my brother wants to sneak away and doesn't want to follow us. Please teach him a lesson and don't let him really run away and cause us trouble."
Chen Ping's face fell, and he sneered, "Chen Hai, I think you are just jealous that my parents value me, so you use this method to provoke me. You deserve to be killed."
