Chapter 577
As expected, Xiao Yu didn't ask about the old princess's burial. After Xiao Qin buried the old princess, he left the capital. No one knew where he went.

But Prince Jing's Mansion was vacant overnight.

The once glorious palace had completely declined.

The stone lion at the gate witnessed the heroic life of the old regent, and also witnessed the past of Xiao Yu, an extremely human minister, but in the end it sent away its last master in the heavy snow.

The snow fell heavily that day, and it has not been snowed so much in Kyoto for many years.

The auspicious snow heralds a good year, and this year will definitely be a bumper harvest year.

……

After discussing with Jun Rong, Xiao Yu took Hong Yi and Yu Chen on the road back to Yun Kingdom when the spring of March came.

Jun Rong stood on the tower to watch them leave, and stood until their backs disappeared completely before turning back.

Since then, he has embarked on drastic reforms.

First of all, the imperial examinations were restored, and the martial arts system was reintroduced, changing the previous bad habit of emphasizing civil affairs over military affairs.

Naturally, there were people muttering again in the court, but Jun Rong said: "If there are no generals, and there are wars, you will be on top? If you can do it, make a written statement now, and you will go on when the time comes. I will watch."

This sentence immediately blocked the mouths of those people.

Since then, the status of generals has been greatly improved, and a situation of checks and balances has been formed with civil servants.

Besides, Jun Rong didn't forget about what Xiao Yu had been thinking about all along, the matter of raising the status of women.

He first amended the law to increase punishment for coercion, abduction, and humiliation of women, and then set up Xiu'an halls under local governments to deal with women, young children and the elderly.

The management personnel of Xiu'an Hall were dispatched by Kyoto to avoid local collusion and changed their original intentions.

And Ning Zhao is the chief secretary of Xiu'an Hall, who directly belongs to the Queen Mother.

After going down like this, no one dared to underestimate them.

At the beginning, everyone was skeptical, and the front of Xiu'an Hall was very deserted, but later, an innocent girl was tricked into a brothel and abused. , went to Xiu'an Hall and filed a complaint.

Ningzhao handled it herself, and found out the ins and outs. After the evidence was conclusive, she directly transferred people to surround the brothel, dragged the steward inside to beat twenty boards, fined 500 taels of silver, and the culprit was directly sent to prison and exiled into slavery.

As soon as this matter came out, it immediately caused an uproar, and Jun Rong personally praised it.

So far, Xiu'antang has gained a firm foothold.

After everyone slowly accepted women as officials, Jun Rong decreed that women must abolish the law that women must observe chastity, allowing women to remarry freely after the death of their husbands, and the same is true for those who are reconciled. Hard labor at the border until he really repents.

When these laws first came out, there were many people who opposed them, but after a long time, everyone saw the real benefits, and gradually they lost their arguments.

At this time, Junrong will carry out further reforms.

Although the process is long, it will always get better and better.

……

After Xiao Yu returned to Yun Country, he began to participate in the government affairs.

Chu Yang didn't give her much help, it was all on her own. After all, if she wanted to convince the public, she had to show her real skills.

Yun Guo is no better than a big boss, and many ministers don't like Xiao Yu's tricks, but fortunately Xiao Yu has two identities, so they don't dare to make things too difficult.

Xiao Yu used to be able to judge people's hearts. She started her experience in Dali Temple and specialized in dealing with old cases. One by one, she dug them all up and tried them again.

If you want to win the hearts of the people, you must first plead for the people.

When investigating the case, she would investigate and ask in person every time, and she ate and lived with the common people, and they quickly became friends.

As her reputation is getting higher and higher, it is impossible for those people in the court to shake her position.

Chu Yang admired this daughter more and more, and gave her more and more power.

Seeing that her position is getting more and more stable, she has less free time.

When she is lazy, she can't help but think of Jun Rong who is far away.

I wonder whether he has gained weight or lost weight recently, whether he has had a good rest, and whether he has encountered any troubles.

I wonder if he is thinking about himself too.

Once the longing is released, it will be out of control.

So Xiao Yu wrote a letter to Jun Rong.

"The cold comes and the summer goes, and it's late autumn again. It's late at night and the dew is heavy. Remember to add clothes sooner or later. I'm fine. Don't worry about it. But it's probably useless to say this. You should be in the same mood as me." Xiao Yu I couldn't help laughing as I wrote this.

"I've almost finished dealing with Yunguo. If I'm free a few years ago, I'll go to see you and settle our marriage. Hope, I also want to retire after success.”

She sighed a long time, being an emperor or something is really tiring, and her unreliable father has become more and more lazy recently, he doesn't show up in the early morning, and leaves it all to her, in the name of taking care of himself.

Thinking of it made her teeth itch with hatred.

After writing this, Xiao Yu felt that there was nothing more to say, and her life was really boring.

She thought for a while, and finally wrote: "I want to say a lot, but I can say very little. In this case, let's save it when we meet. I haven't seen you for a long time. I can only draw something to comfort lovesickness. See if you like it." picture?"

Xiao Yu's drawing skills are actually mediocre, but his superiority lies in his resemblance. With just a few strokes, he can draw a rough outline...well, the outline of a puppy.

"Hahahaha - write your name here... Changhuan."

Xiao Yu blew it, looked at his masterpiece, was very satisfied, folded it, put it in an envelope and sealed it, and asked someone to send it to Daqian with a gift.

"I don't know how Chang Huan will react when he receives this letter?"

……

This letter arrived in Jun Rong's hands two months later.

It was already winter when I left Yunguo to go to work, and when it snowed, the road was very difficult to walk, so I was delayed on the road for a long time.

Fortunately, it was delivered in good condition.

Jun Rong sat in the imperial study room and carefully opened the envelope. At first, he was happy and sad when he read it.

He stroked the naive little dog painted in the lower right corner with his hand, and couldn't help laughing, "I'm a dog, so what should the master be?"

"Hmm... a cat?" Jun Rong thought for a while, and felt that it was not appropriate, "A fox is more suitable."

"What kind of fox is His Majesty talking about?"

Wuyou came in to change tea for him, and heard this curious question.

Jun Rong suppressed her smile, "It's nothing, but I think there are some things that should be put on the agenda."

"What did His Majesty say?"

Jun Rong got up and let out a long sigh of relief: "Of course I'm going to marry the Tai Tuo."

Wuyou: "Huh?"

"Go and pass on Duke Fu to the palace, I have something to tell him."

Jun Rong looked down at the letter on the table, and said silently in his heart: Duke Fu cannot be called for nothing. At critical moments, he is counted on to assist the country, so that he, the emperor, can leave with peace of mind.
