My country is dying

Chapter 318
In the evening, Xiao Qi notified Mi Le's location, and Mi Le took Hou Junli out of the city together.

Houses have been built in the original refugee camp. Although they are just simple wooden houses, everyone has their own residence.

Outside the wooden house, there is hot air lingering under the firelight, just like the time when they came here in the past, and this moment just happened to be the time when the men came back from work.

I saw people coming out from every household, women, children, or old people. Although they were still wearing coarse linen clothes, they were no longer hungry and injured as before.

Hou Junli watched this scene without looking away for a long time.

Seeing this, Mi Le immediately said: "Not only this place, but all the refugee places in the capital, as long as they are willing to work, they will have a bite to eat, and for those bosses who hire refugees, I have given them the privilege of tax exemption. Come, the wages of the workers will increase, and there will be no more scenes of working hard but having no food!"

Only then did Hou Junli turn his head to look at her: "Then how does the emperor ensure that these workers can receive enough wages?"

Mi Le blinked: "I have set up a refugee agency. As long as these refugees have been treated unfairly, they can report to the agency. If it is true, the boss who hires refugees must pay double or even more times the wages. If it is not true, If it is recorded in the register, if it exceeds three times, it is unreasonable, and the wages will also be paid. In this way, both the boss and the worker will restrain themselves. And this matter, I will personally supervise it, and check the file records every three months. There must be no one Dare to take the risk of beheading to commit crimes against the wind!"

Hou Junli thought for a moment: "If this is the case, it is naturally the best, but at the foot of the capital, the emperor can still take care of it himself, how should he manage other places?"

"It depends on the methods of the regent!" Mi Le laughed, "I am only responsible for providing the plan, as for the implementation, of course you have to worry about it!"

Hou Junli stared at her for a while, then smiled suddenly: "You're smart."

Mi Le raised his eyebrows: "How is it? The results after three months, have you impressed me?"

"It's quite impressive." Hou Junli stretched out his hand to hold her, "It seems that the emperor still has to force her, otherwise how could there be such a result."

Miller stopped immediately: "So you mean, this matter is your credit?"

Hou Junli saw her face full of anger, and finally laughed again: "How dare I take the emperor's credit!"

Mi Le turned his head angrily, just in time to see Xiao Qi standing next to the horse beside the carriage not far away.

She suddenly thought of something, and explained to Hou Junli: "Actually, General Xiao's contribution to the capital's plan being carried out so quickly, if he hadn't found those employers for me and supervised the progress, this matter would not have been that great Get it done!"

Hou Junli looked at Xiao Qi, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Xiao Qi...is considered a talent."

"What does it mean to be a talent! He is a talent!" Mi Le protested.

Hou Junli turned his head to look at her, his brows burning brightly: "So Wu has Xiao Qi, and Wen is Qi Moxuan?"

Mi Le blinked: "Are you jealous?"

Hou Junli smiled, but the smile was loose and tight.

He rubbed Mi Le's head: "The emperor is working hard to prepare for the road to pro-government, and it's too late for the minister to be happy for the emperor, so how could he be jealous?"

After finishing speaking, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Qi in front of him: "Tonight, I will not enter the palace with the emperor, let Xiao Qi send you off."

Mi Le was stunned for a moment: "Are you going back to the palace tonight?"

"Well, tonight, I won't be with the emperor."

Mi Le nodded, but did not let go of his hand: "That's easy, I'll send you back!"

After all, she pulled Hou Junli into the carriage, and when she passed by Xiao Qi, she couldn't help but patted his arm: "General Xiao, you've worked hard!"

Xiao Qi didn't speak, he just got on the horse after the driver got on the carriage, and followed behind the carriage.

On the way back, Mi Le felt sleepy, so he leaned on Hou Junli's lap to sleep.

The latter stared at her face for a long time without looking away.

Hou Junli got off the carriage at the Prince Regent's Mansion, and the carriage drove all the way to the palace.

But it never occurred to him that Hou Junli would not be seen at the court the next morning. After asking, he found out that he had asked for leave, saying that he had something to do.

Mi Le didn't have time to pay attention to it, because her menstruation came again, and she spent a long time in bed in pain as usual, and took medicine to relieve it.

When the afternoon got better, Mi Le was busy working again, not only the memorial, but also the materials of Soul Moon Kingdom.

For two days in a row, she was busy until midnight.

The two girls, Xianglan and Xiangsi, who knew her identity, loved her very much, and tried their best to get her food to nourish her body.

Fortunately, Mi Le has maintained a good health in the past few months, but the aunt is too tossed, so I don't know if it is because of her physique.

The third day came in a blink of an eye, Mi Le got up early to greet the Queen Mother, and went to Gaoyang Gate together with the Queen Mother and Shu concubine.

Gaoyang Gate had already set up a banquet, and when everyone took their seats, Mi Le was able to see Hou Junli this time.

But after not seeing each other for two or three days, Hou Junli seemed to have calmed down a bit. Before Mi Le had time to think about it, on the other side, the envoy of the Soul Moon Kingdom entered the arena.

As a formal meeting, Wu Yunzhu brought his courtiers together with the gifts he brought.

Mi Le showed a regal smile, and while inviting her to take a seat, he also invited her to taste Jin Yanguo's dishes, and was accompanied by a special guide.

"This princess of Hunyue Kingdom is really beautiful, completely different from us from the Central Plains!" Next to the queen mother, the girl Ru Yan looked at Wu Yunzhu again and again, and couldn't help but said.

The queen mother glanced at her without much expression: "It's just that Fengshui is different. If Yan'er is in the Soul Moon Kingdom, she must have a different kind of beauty!"

When Ru Yan heard this, she immediately blushed, and secretly glanced at Mi Le's direction and said, "The Empress Dowager, don't make fun of Ru Yan, the emperor is still here!"

The queen mother looked at Mi Le and smiled slightly: "What are you afraid of, sooner or later we will be a family, what does the emperor say?"

After hearing this, Mi Le naturally understood what the queen mother meant, and immediately laughed: "The queen mother's words are wrong, isn't it a family now!"

The queen mother was taken aback for a moment, and then she also laughed: "What the emperor said is very true."

On the other side, Ru Yan blushed again.

"Crack." Suddenly a voice came from the side and rear, Mi Le turned around, just in time to see Concubine Shu covering her mouth with a distressed expression on her face, and the sound just now was the sound of her throwing away the dishes in her hand.

"What happened to Concubine Shu?" Mi Le asked with concern.

On the side, the maidservant who was waiting for the concubine Shu hurriedly said: "If you go back to the emperor, the concubine Shu will be very happy, I'm afraid she smells greasy!"

Hearing this, Mi Le glanced at the table, just in time to see a piece of fat roasted pig's foot with oil on it.
