I believe that with these things, they will not let themselves down.
"Brother Imperial, what's up, is this a surprise?" Li Wenchong came closer, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Surprise, big surprise!"
It was just the regret in his tone that made Li Wenchong stunned for a moment: "Since it's a surprise, why does the emperor still sigh? Is it possible that the emperor is unhappy?"
"I'm happy, of course I'm happy, but it's a pity... I'm already old."
Li Wenchong's pupils dilated instantly: "Brother Emperor, you actually think you are old? Brother Emperor, are you kidding me? You don't have a single silver strand on your head, how can you be old? I heard Eunuch Li say that you were still old last night
I ate three bowls of rice..."
Emperor Mingguang glared at him: "Eunuch Li tells you everything. Is he my person or yours?"
"I don't care about Brother Huang. Brother Huang, I think you just think too much. You are in much better health now than you were a few years ago, and your hair is darker. Are there any signs of aging? Brother Huang just loves to worry...
"Li Wenchong muttered and said, "You probably feel that you can't go to the battlefield, and you feel unhappy? Come on, you are the emperor, and a gentleman will not stand under a dangerous wall. Don't say that you are already doing it now.
I belong to my grandpa, no matter how many years younger you are, the ministers will never allow you to fight in person..."
When Emperor Mingguang personally conquered the country, it was still when he was the prince.
After he ascended the throne and became emperor, the people below him would not let him go to the battlefield. At first, he had no heirs and it was too dangerous on the battlefield. Later, he had heirs, but he was delayed for one reason or another. Until now...
Emperor Mingguang felt that he was getting old and could no longer surrender to the battlefield.
"So, do you think I should lead the troops to fight now?" Emperor Mingguang looked at Li Wenchong and asked with some ill intentions.
The alarm in Li Wenchong's mind sounded: "No, brother Huang, do you really plan to go by yourself?!"
He looked shocked, "I just said that you are in good health and can go, but I didn't really ask you to go. You want to fight... If you want to fight, let your son go. Why do you keep so many sons? Let them build
Build a business..."
Mingmitsu Shi looked at this "careless" boy, asked the guards to continue playing, and took him aside.
At this time, only the two of them were left.
"Let them go? Do you think I don't grow old fast enough?"
Li Wenchong blinked his eyes, with an innocent look on his face: "Brother, have you forgotten? Although the world map drawn by Brother Can and others has not been completed yet, there are many countries around the Ming Dynasty, and there are many who have been to the Ming Dynasty.
There was an aggressive war in the Ming Dynasty.”
As soon as the "Natural History" was published, everyone in the Ming Dynasty was watching. Although Yao Jiuye and his colleagues' work was relatively obscure and was not announced to the outside world, the "Natural History" often published matters on the borders of the Ming Dynasty. Some knowledgeable people
Whether it’s something special, or people who just want to get paid for their contributions, they all submitted their articles one after another.
The world map in Yao Jiuye's hands now is twice as big as before.
It is really unimaginable that someone has been to so many countries and seen so much of the world.
One of them, Tian Gaoge, also wanted to compile "Commentaries on the Water Classic of the Ming Dynasty", and another named Yao Xuelin wanted to compile "Travel Notes on Countries Surrounding the Ming Dynasty".
Coupled with the previously excavated geography masters Pu Yuanwu and Jin Yajun, it can be said to be a series of surprises.
Li Wenchong said it almost openly. When he discussed with Emperor Mingguang before, didn't he also mention that these princes danced very hard and Emperor Mingguang wanted to choose the successor from the third generation?
Well, since we are ready to choose from the third generation, let’s quickly get the second generation out.
The world outside is so big. Whoever has the ability to conquer a piece of the world belongs to them. Give them the title of king, make them hereditary, and make yourself the boss.
If you don't have the ability, just stay at home and enjoy your fiefdom without thinking about anything.
Finally, Li Wenchong looked at Mingguang's expression and said weakly: "Actually... I also want a piece of land..."
Emperor Mingguang glared at him.
"No, Brother Emperor, please listen to my explanation. I didn't say to go now. I just want to prepare it first. When I wait a hundred years from now, I will pass it on directly to Brother Can..." Li Wenchong muttered and explained, "Brother Can and
Several royal grandsons grew up together, and I also want to be a tiger for him. After all, he is also my son."
"I'm not your biological child."
"But I raised you."
...綄
In fact, Emperor Mingguang had some regrets. Yao Jiuye was smart and intelligent. It would be great if he were really his royal heir.
Although Li Wenchong's having a child would put pressure on him, seeing that his favorite emperor's brother had nothing, and even the wife he married was someone else's legacy, he wanted to compensate Li Wenchong so much.
if……
Emperor Mingguang thought that if he really wanted to let several of his sons go out to fight and each become a vassal king, it seemed that it would be okay to let Li Wenchong go out and share a piece of the pie.
As his most beloved imperial brother, how could Li Wenchong not have what others had?
"I'll think about this again!"
Li Wenchong got a word, and before he had time to mention the iron ore matter, he was sent out of the palace by Emperor Mingguang with a large amount of rewards.
He was quite happy at first, feeling that his trip was not in vain. Gu Qingling must be happy to see so many things, but...
As he walked, Li Wenchong suddenly remembered why he went to the palace today, and his whole body suddenly felt bad.
Well……
He seems to have forgotten what he was doing!
It’s over!
She won't be angry if she finds out, right?
Back home, Li Wenchong lacked confidence.
Seeing his guilty look, Gu Qingling had some guesses and sighed slightly in her heart: It seems like it just didn't work out.
Pity.
It's a pity, if she could do it, she could completely upgrade the things in the factory.
This feeling of having technology but no resources is really unpleasant.
"It's okay. If His Majesty doesn't agree, then you don't agree. I'll think of other ways." If you can't upgrade everything, then you should upgrade the key points first. Gu Qingling can think of it.
"I... have two pieces of news, one good news and one bad news. Which one should I tell you first?"
"This good news makes me happy."
"I mentioned the matter of expanding the territory to Brother Huang and said that I wanted to get a piece of land for Brother Can. He said that he would consider it."
When Gu Qingling heard this, she immediately understood what he meant: "Really?! Have you really made it clear that you want to give Brother Can a land where he can make the decision?"
The words "you can make the decision" are emphasized again.
Li Wenchong nodded: "Yeah! Really! The princes below are all grown up. The emperor's brother is a long-lived one. You can't let the princes below you continue to have internal conflicts, right? It is inevitable to let them out. When it comes to this, it is actually better to
Thank you. If you hadn't told us how big the world is, we would have missed a lot of things."
Gu Qingling blinked his eyes and was very happy: "This is not my credit, it is the credit of Brother Can and the others. I just played a guiding role. I don't know how big the world is, and I don't know what countries are around the Ming Dynasty. I
I just feel that the future belongs to them, and they should open their eyes and take a good look at the world to know what they want most."
