The completion of the two palaces has increased the cohesion of the entire nation of Wei to an unprecedented level. Perhaps now the monarch and the people are of one heart in the true sense.

In Wei State, Zhao Changqing was the one who believed.

It is an existence that people all over the world trust.

If anyone dares to say anything bad about Zhao Changqing in the capital, the people will drown him in their spit without the government's intervention.

After the sacrifices in the two halls were completed, Zhao Changqing thought about going to the Chu State to discuss the matter of enshrining himself in Zen.

At present, all the land of the Chu State has been captured, and a series of land rectifications have been carried out, so that the local people of the Chu State have gradually accepted the fact of the country's subjugation.

Everything is ready. As long as Zhao Changqing inherits the local destiny after inheriting Feng Chan from Chu State, then Zhao Changqing will have the destiny of the two countries combined into one, and may be able to reach the highest realm.

Of course, this is just his fantasy.

After all, throughout the ages, except for those few saints who have been recorded in history and passed down from generation to generation by the common people, as well as the heavenly beings who are currently known to be in the highest realm, no one has entered that realm for hundreds of years.

According to the statement of senior Daogong Tianjizi, Zhao Changqing deduced that the ancient method had disappeared, and the current method could not continue the way forward and thus came to an end.

Otherwise, there is no reason why he cannot step into that realm just by relying on his current combat power.

In the Xuanzheng Hall.

Ministers discuss matters.

Zhao Changqing expressed his thoughts.

To be honest, the ministers were quite reluctant to let the emperor leave like this again, because since His Majesty returned from the expedition, he had not been in Kyoto for more than a year and a half. They were worried that if this continued, the domestic political situation would be somewhat unstable.

Moreover, even if he is the emperor, he cannot do this, right?

Seeing that the officials were silent, Zhao Changqing focused his eyes on Zhuge Liang and said, "What do you think about this?"

Zhuge Liang also felt that there was no need to rush this matter. After all, the land of Chu State was there and could not be escaped.

The recent conquests in recent years have caused people in many places in the Wei Dynasty to make ends meet and complain. Even if they have no complaints against the emperor, it is still a hidden danger. Compared with Feng Chan, Zhuge Liang feels that as an emperor, he is destined to

He wants to become an emperor for eternity, and he has more important things to do.

After hearing the emperor's question, he just thought about it for a moment, then bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, I believe that the most urgent task at the moment is to stabilize the mood of the people in various places, resume production as soon as possible, and enable various places to recuperate. As for the Feng Chan

It can be done at any time, it doesn’t have to be now.”

"Stabilize the people's emotions?" Zhao Changqing frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Zhuge Liang answered truthfully: "Your Majesty did not know that when you went to conquer the Chu Kingdom, the country was in financial trouble because of the construction of the canal, so it had to increase taxes on the provincial roads in the south of the Yangtze River, which made the lives of the people in the south even worse. In the end,

It is helpless that I want to propose to His Majesty that we stop the construction of the canal."

Up to now, the construction of this canal has not been resumed.

Zhao Changqing said: "You mean, you want me to travel around the world to appease the hearts and minds of people everywhere?"

Zhuge Liang was a little overjoyed, but he controlled his surface emotions very well.

His original idea was to let His Majesty sit in Kyoto for a period of time, and then talk about the Feng Chan matter after the situation in the country was completely restored to normal.

But the four words "touring around the world" that His Majesty said are excellent.

If we do this, people everywhere will definitely be convinced and won't have any complaints.

At that time, when the country slows down, it will not be too late to reduce or reduce taxes on them.

Otherwise, if any sad emotions really accumulate, it will be like a seed, taking root and sprouting in the hinterland of Wei State. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. Some things have to be guarded against.

He bowed directly to the emperor and replied: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, it will be a blessing to the country and a blessing to the people!"

Zhao Changqing said without saying anything, "Okay, let's choose a day to tour the world."

For him, as long as he doesn't stay in the palace, he can go anywhere.

When the ministers heard that His Majesty the Emperor was going to tour the world, they felt that Prime Minister Zhuge's suggestion was a good way. In this way, the domestic situation could be quickly stabilized to the greatest extent and people would not be impetuous.

This time, for Zhao Changqing, it was a poor trip.

It's simple. The treasury is out of money and he is unwilling to pay out of his own pocket.

Zhuge Liang and the others would never have thought that even the total amount of money in the national treasury at its peak was not as rich as Zhao Changqing's private treasury.

Among the concubines in the harem, Zhao Changqing only brought Cao Jianjia and Prince Zhao Hongqing.

At first, I wanted to take the queen with me, but I considered that one of the two saints must stay in the capital to be safe and to have peace of mind.

Therefore, he brought Cao Jianjia, who currently had no heirs, to reassure the queen.

I had to take Zhao Hongqing with me on this poor trip, mainly because I wanted the child to see the world with me. Otherwise, he would be stuck in the palace all the time without seeing how big the world is, and it would be difficult to make any progress.

No matter what, he is still a prince, and he dares to see how big the world is.

A few days passed.

Zhao Changqing set off with 30,000 soldiers.

First go to Jiannan Road, which now belongs to Yangzhou Jiannan Road.

It expanded the original Yangzhou territory a lot.

Today's Qingzhou includes Youyun and most of the border areas of Chu State.

After careful planning, Zhao Changqing was asked to create nine states to facilitate central management.

When I went to the south, I mainly wanted to get some fresh air.

So in terms of speed, it is relatively slow.

After walking for more than half a month, we arrived at the bank of the Huaihe River.

The Huaihe River at this time has several more branches than when Zhao Changqing came last time.

The main reason is because of the canal construction project.

This not only made Zhao Changqing sigh with emotion, but as expected, there is still strength in numbers. It is really admirable to build so many tributaries just by relying on manpower.

With these tributaries, more people on both sides of the Huaihe River will benefit from it.

The Huaihe River here makes Zhao Changqing feel that some things are really different.

I remember that the last time I came here, I had just ascended the throne.

Now in the blink of an eye, I even have a child.

Zhao Changqing held Zhao Hongqing's little hand and walked by the river. The figures of the father and son were reflected on the ground in the afterglow, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Cao Jianjia knew enough not to disturb this scene, but just walked slowly behind the two of them.

She hadn't seen His Majesty so at ease for a long time.

This is also true.

As long as he stayed in the capital, Zhao Changqing could sometimes feel that he couldn't breathe and was too suffocated.

The scenery of the Huaihe River has always been very good, like a long dragon winding its way on the earth, turning it into this beautiful scenery on earth.

At this time of year, if it rains a little, it would be great to take a fishing boat and float on the river.

Zhao Hongqing had been admiring the scenery by the river. Suddenly something came to his mind and he asked: "Father, is this where you first met your mother?"

Zhao Changqing touched his little head, his thoughts gradually drifted into the distance, and he said as if murmuring: "I don't remember exactly when my father and your mother met. I only know that the summer that year was very hot.

.”

"Very hot?" Zhao Hongqing didn't quite understand.

Zhao Changqing nodded and said: "As for this, this is the place where my father first fell in love with your mother."

Zhao Hongqing said in a sweet voice: "Father, in the future, the child will travel around the world, because the child also wants to meet a close friend in life."

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "In the future, not only the country will be yours, but the entire world will be yours. You can go wherever you want. No one will stop you, and no one dares to stop you, because you are destined to grow in the future.

The best person in the world."

"The best person in the world?"

The little guy Zhao Hongqing hopes that day can come soon and go to the place he likes.

Zhao Changqing picked him up, pinched his nose, and said: "Okay, who said you can't seek poetry and distant places when you are an emperor? In the future, my child can be the emperor however he wants."

Zhao Hongqing grinned widely.

He enjoyed spending time with his father.

A father and a son walked farther and farther in Cao Jianjia's eyes, and their figures were gradually elongated by the afterglow, like a picture scroll, frozen there, attracting people's imagination.
