I Don’t Want To Be the Emperor - Chapter 588
Chapter 588: Disobedience
The Daliang Kingdom has been in war for years, and there are countless orphans and abandoned babies. The old lady in front of me has single-handedly adopted more than 30 fatherless and motherless children, many of whom are born with disabilities. However, the old lady has relied on her for twenty years to He would wash people’s clothes and feed them, never leaving.
And two of the children are more promising. Liu Ping’an won first class merit in the Battle of Saibei. After retiring from the army the year before last, he started as a police officer in Jizhou Port City and rose to the position of chief arrester. , chatting and laughing.
Another adopted son, Liu Pinghua, had been selling pancakes on the street. Taking advantage of the “economic reforms” proposed by the imperial court, he started a military supply business. Within a few years, he became a famous businessman in Hong Kong and responded to Liang Guo’s latest education policy. , the first new private school in Jizhou was established in Gangcheng.
She was personally received and encouraged by the Minister of Education Wang Qingbang. In the beginning of the spring, Shen Junru, who had just been transferred to Jizhou Chief Envoy, inscribed a plaque with the title “Poems and Books Heirloom” for her. After Shen Junru learned about the deeds of his adoptive mother Liu Zhilan, he recommended her He is a “hero of Daliang Kingdom”.
Lin Yi looked at her resume and thought there was no one who could meet this requirement better than her.
Female, and doing charity work!
Perfectly in line with some of the policies currently being implemented by Daliang Kingdom.
Lin Yi pushed her out as the representative of the heroines of Daliang Kingdom.
The only drawback was that she had no academic qualifications and could not be an official. However, she was later appointed as a consultant to the Ministry of Civil Affairs of Jizhou, specializing in supervising the receipt and use of social assistance funds such as children’s welfare homes, orphan schools, and children’s villages in Jizhou, and ensuring that social assistance funds were earmarked. dedicated.
Liu Zhilan is not an official, but she has great power.
Not a country squire, but his influence covers all welfare departments in Jizhou.
It is equivalent to holding a Shangfang sword given by the prince. Since taking office, after feedback to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, three orphanage directors have been removed, and the Yamen is still further investigating other illegal and criminal facts.
It caused a sensation in Jizhou for a while.
After the old lady came to Ankang City, Lin Yi met her in person and praised her selfless spirit. Unexpectedly, the old lady told the truth: it is free to be a consultant to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and because she is old, she is too busy now and her time is not valuable. .
Idle time is also idle, there is nothing wrong with spending public money wandering around Jizhou.
It made Lin Yi dumbfounded.
Liu Zhilan was led by a female agent and stood in the center of the high platform.
This was the first time that she stood at such a high place, looked down at so many people, and had to speak for herself.
Nervously, she took out a piece of paper from her pocket. This was her speech.
“Insisting on giving priority to children’s welfare, we must implement child welfare fund guarantees, continuously increase national financial investment, increase the proportion of funds supporting the central and western regions and border areas, ethnic and poverty-stricken areas, actively encourage social forces to participate, continue to increase social assistance, and further improve The service guarantee level ensures that every orphan, sick, disabled, left-behind and other difficult children can receive careful care and grow up healthily and happily.”
This manuscript was dictated by her, and several of her adopted sons helped write it. Later, the secretary of the Jizhou Governor helped to revise it. After arriving in Ankang City, the Ministry of Rites, the Hanlin Academy, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs successively reviewed it, and finally the person in charge of Liang Guo’s law The three-law division finalized the draft.
When the manuscript returned to her hands, she discovered that it had been changed beyond recognition, and not a single word was her own.
However, people from the Ministry of Rites told her that this article was closely centered on “He Wangye’s guiding ideology” and would be published in the Daliang Daily, which was reorganized from Di Daily, and everyone in the world would know her name Liu Zhilan. !
She was extremely excited.
Therefore, I stopped thinking about it. She lived in the Department of Ceremony and Cleaning of the Ministry of Rites. Under the guidance of the staff of the Ministry of Rites, after memorizing the manuscript back and forth for half a month, she gained weight, had flesh on her cheeks, and almost recited it backwards. , I was still asked to read the manuscript.
She can’t read a word of Chinese characters, so what’s the point of taking the manuscript?
People from the Ministry of Rites said that this is the “sense of ceremony” that the prince said.
The rules are like this, she has to follow them.
“Children who have no one to support them are commonly known as de facto orphans. According to the latest Liang Law, they mainly include children whose parents are severely disabled, seriously ill, serving sentences in prison, subject to other measures restricting personal freedom, or missing contact; or whose parents If one parent dies or disappears and the other parent meets one of the above eight conditions, the child shall
It is a fact that most unsupported children face multiple difficulties in survival and development. Although they have parents, they are actually lonely, and the social support system is very weak, which has always been a shortcoming in the child welfare work.”
After feeling no tension, she became more and more fluent and her tone became more high-pitched.
She remembered that the people from the Ministry of Rites told her to make sure that everyone could hear what she said clearly.
After she finished speaking, the next person on stage was a soldier recommended by the military department with a broken arm and a ferocious face.
From Yuzhou, a fifth-level master, killed fifteen enemies in the battle of Liangshui River, broke his arm, and was bleeding profusely, but he still refused to retreat.
While the Prince Regent presented him with the award, military music sounded.
In addition to a Daliang Hero Medal, this soldier named Yuan Dalin was also promoted to deputy minister of the Civil Armed Forces Department in Huaicheng, Yuzhou.
Everyone in the audience, as long as they are not stupid, understands that this person can walk sideways in Yuzhou from now on.
Of course, it is basically impossible to get promoted further.
After all, he is a disabled person.
It is the dignity of the country to allow disabled people with meritorious service to rely on themselves in old age and be respected by society. It is also the dignity of the country to prevent disabled people from holding important positions.
After the lively ceremony, Lin Yi was not in a hurry to go back. He first went to the lecture hall of the Imperial College to take off the colorful royal robes he had specially worn, wiped himself, washed himself, and sipped tea before he recovered.
“Your Majesty.”
He Jixiang handed over the coupon in due time.
Lin Yi waved his hand and said, “If you have anything to say, just tell me.”
He simply squinted his eyes, not bothering to look.
“Your Majesty, good news from Saibei!”
He Jixiang was so excited that he was a little incoherent.
“As expected.”
Lin Yi said this, but he was still a little surprised in his heart.
Yuan Ang and Mei Jingzhi took too long to lead the army, and the news they came back was always painless. There was no so-called victory.
“Your Majesty is wise!”
He Jixiang said loudly, “General Mei Jingzhi led his troops to Liangshui River. Ah Li fought stubbornly and fought to the death. Manager Hong was brave and used his magical power to hit him in the face, causing him to fall off his horse. The sergeant caught up and tied him up. Rebellion, I heard that the heavenly troops had entered the city, and I captured them without any help. I surrendered more than 30,000 prisoners, and the situation was decided!”
Saibei has been the inherent territory of Daliang since ancient times, and an expedition to Saibei was also a way to fight against rebellion.
“Okay, okay, okay!”
Lin Yi said three good words in succession.
