Chapter 442: Zish


In the next few days, Li Wei spent half a day in Taoist temple and wandering outside for half a day. The people beside her did not dare to hinder her.
During these days of wandering outside, she went deep among the people, saw a lot of ups and downs, and discovered the root cause of the impoverishment of this dynasty.
She could have solved the fundamental problems of these people with her own status, but the Minister of Korea blocked her in every possible way, not allowing her to take any action, and only allowed her to be the queen mother and the emperor's foster mother.
When Li Wei came back from the outside, he was already exhausted. Lan Hui couldn't help but feel a little worried when he saw it, and waited on her carefully.
Caizhi is also equipped with herbs to relieve fatigue to soak Li Wei's feet.
After soaking her feet well, Caizhi massaged her carefully, and her bones were relaxed.
"The queen mother is always in a hurry these days, but your body is getting stronger and stronger. Will you be able to return to the palace?"
Li Wei glanced at the girl in front of him and said: "Go back to what palace, live here chic and unrestrained, I don't want to go back."
Caizhi heard it and laughed again: "Yes, it's so boring in the palace, or the queen mother outside has more smiles on your face. I just think you run in and out all day, worrying that you can't bear it."
"Didn't you just say that I'm getting stronger? This is the result of my running in and out these days. I'm really in a good mood when I live outside, and all the worries in the palace can be temporarily put down. I just don't know what the emperor can do. Okay, what about the princess."
Qingxiang, standing by the side, said hurriedly: "In the afternoon, Mr. Wei came here and brought a lot of things. He also conveyed greetings from the emperor and the nine princesses. I heard that they were all very nice, but I missed you very much."
"Come on, they have to be more comfortable when I'm not here."
Being served by Caizhi did relieve a lot of fatigue, and at the same time, sleepiness also hit.
She hugged the quilt to sleep, perhaps because of the physical exhaustion where she ran during the day. She slept very sweetly that night, and it was dawn without even having a dream.
When I woke up the next morning, the sun had already risen.
She still changed into coarse cloth clothes, and didn't take the brocade clothes that Wei Tai brought in. She always felt that it was inconvenient to get in and out wearing those loose robes and big sleeves.
After having breakfast, Li Wei did not practice swords with the Tsinghua Master in Taoist temple as before, but sent someone to Qingyuan Guanzhu.
Guanzhu Qingyuan came over soon and bowed to Li Wei.
Li Wei said: "Sit down, please."
When Guanzhu Qingyuan sat down, Li Wei said: "This time the main reason for asking the Guanzhu to come is to discuss with you."
"Queen dowager, you can do it as soon as you have something to order."
Li Weiqian said peacefully: "I have been living in Guanli for so long, which has caused you trouble, but I still feel comfortable living here. Caizhi said that I have improved a lot and my complexion has also improved. Maybe I will continue to disturb. I always run down the mountain these days, which has caused you a lot of fright. I was a little bit naughty. I'm really sorry."
Listening to the words of the queen mother with some children made Qingyuan a little surprised, and then said: "You don't need to be polite, the queen mother."
"Okay, I'm really welcome. These days, I have traveled a lot of places and communicated with many people. I found that many poor people can't even eat, and even starve to death. , So I always have an idea in my heart..." Li Wei paused and then continued: "I want Taoist temple to build a porridge shed under the mountain to serve the pedestrians. It will take... ten days first."
This is not difficult, Qingyuan Guanzhu agreed.
Li Wei nodded and said, "Thank you Guanzhu for your cooperation." Then she said: "The places in the south are all in Taoism, right?"
Guanzhu Qingyuan said: "Yes, there are a total of 103 acres of land. It's just that the number of people in Guanli is limited and they can't all be cultivated. Some of the land is deserted."
Li Weicai said again: "It's a pity that the land is deserted, let me think of a way for the master." Li Wei drank a sip of tea, already had an idea in her heart, and said with a smile to the master of Qingyuan: "Or else Let’s do this. Let the land in the south be leased to the people below the mountain. Taoist temples are enshrined by the court, and there is no shortage of incense or food and clothing. You collect a symbolic rent and don’t put too much burden on the people."
Naturally, the queen mother’s will and others only have to obey it. Qingyuan’s Master had nothing to say, but said:
It’s better to give them seeds instead of that.

Li Wei shook his head and said, "If the will is not enough, they will be overwhelmed with the taxes in the fields. It is better to put a name in the Taoist temple, and you don't have to pay taxes. This is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone."
Qingyuan Guanzhu did not disagree.
Then Li Wei took out a sum of silver by himself and handed it to the master, asking her to prepare the porridge shed.
On the next day, the porridge shed was set up, and Li Wei had personally visited the scene to add bowls to those who came to beg for porridge.
She just did her best to help these people a little bit. In addition to building a porridge shed, she also let Caizhi and another Taoist aunt in Taoist temple rub a lot of pills and give them to those who need it. .
Li Wei's application of porridge and medicine in Lishan quickly spread to the palace. Not to mention the reactions of those toffees and toes, but the old foxes in the cabinet had heard about them, and they were all whispering. The beard said: "This queen mother can't calm down wherever she goes, she's young and active." It's completely a look at the baby.
Li Wei still lived a simple life of practicing swords and visiting, where she could open her mind to accommodate everything, and her mood naturally got better and better.
October will soon be over, and the eighteenth of the next month is the anniversary of the Emperor. As the queen mother and the widow of the first emperor, the anniversary celebration had to go back, although Li Wei was reluctant to go back.
The days of staying in the Taoist temple are about half a month away.
She returned from a village that day. She rode slowly on the forest road on a horseback. Rarely, she turned her head and glanced at Luo Chong, and motioned for him to follow.
Luo Chongji knows his words and colors, and immediately followed.
"What is your order, Queen Mother?"
"Nothing was ordered, but the family who went to today looked distressed, and the sadness in my heart has not been relieved for a while, and I want to find someone to talk to."
Luo Chong was a little surprised, because the Queen Mother never talked to him very much.
Luo Chong listened respectfully, listening to Li Wei quietly. Li Wei talked to Luo Chong about the feelings and thoughts in his heart one by one. Luo Chong is just an ordinary guard. He seldom expresses any meaning, but he occasionally echoes it.
"Queen dowager, you went too far, so let's go to a nearby place tomorrow." Luo Chong was a little worried.
"The people who are near have already been there, only to go to the far distance. These days, let you follow me to work hard for you."
"Minions don't work hard." The queen mother didn't even cry hard, he, a big man, would never mention hard work.
After passing a small road, I was about to go up to that mountain. This mountain is the road to the Taoist temple after all, and it is not far to cross this mountain.
The two horses were walking side by side. Just when Li Wei turned his head to talk to Luo Chong, an arrow flew out of nowhere with a whistling arrow, rubbing Li Wei’s clothes through, and stabbing into the roadside. On a tree.
Luo Chong was shocked, drew out the sword from his waist, nervously said: "Beware of the Queen Mother!"
