On the streets of Luoyang, although there was a strong wind, there were still many vendors staying in the market, greeting pedestrians. At this time, Prince Kushan, who could already speak a few words of broken Chinese, was wandering around the city.
This prince stayed in Luoyang for half a year, and no one paid attention to him. The emperor saw that he did not leave, and could not force him to leave. He ignored the urging of the envoys, and as for Guishang,
, the crown prince wished that he would not come back. Seeing that he was willing to stay in Luoyang, his supporters all expressed their support for his behavior.
King Guishang did not urge him and allowed him to stay in Luoyang.
However, the deputy envoy really couldn't sit still.
"Prince, we have been here for six full months. Everyone misses their hometown and their relatives...which makes me ask the prince, when will we go back?"
"Hey, don't be anxious. I heard that the prince of the Han Dynasty is about to get married. No matter how anxious we are, we have to wait until his wedding day and attend the wedding day before leaving?" the prince said with a smile.
"Oh, I see, what the prince said makes sense!" The deputy envoy couldn't help but nodded. Nowadays, Guishang has a close relationship with the Han Dynasty, and the prince is the next crown prince of the Han Empire. Regarding the issue of the prince, Kushan really wants to maintain
With enough respect, there is no problem in participating in the prince's wedding. The deputy envoy asked again: "Does the prince know when the prince's wedding is?"
The prince smiled and said nothing.
In the temple, the battle was still going on. Wang Fu maintained his opinion, and Xing Ziang did not waver. Although the ministers were supporting Xing Ziang, under Situ's full opposition, the matter was delayed.
Being able to be determined, the emperor looked at the two of them and cleared his throat. The officials suddenly fell silent. This kind of power made the little fat man sitting aside and listening feel envious. He hoped that one day, he could also make the officials.
The officials were frightened when they heard the news and retreated, not daring to resist at all.
The emperor looked at Wang Fu, then at Xing Ziang, and then said: "The Chi Road of the Five States must be built..."
Hearing the emperor's words, Wang Fu smiled and looked at Xing Zi'ang with some pride. The emperor continued: "Many people in the court once said that they wanted the Han Dynasty to give up the Western Regions and Liangzhou. But now, the cotton crops everywhere in the Western Regions
Planting, Liangzhou is the center of foreign trade, allowing the Han Dynasty treasury to accumulate countless wealth. He, and the two states, produce ink charcoal. If this product can be transported to Liangzhou, trade with foreign countries will definitely gain a lot, and even more
What's more, the areas beyond the Great Wall are prone to disasters and disasters, but aren't the people in the border areas Han people?"
"Building Chidao can provide rapid disaster relief, and can facilitate civil and military affairs. Such important things require a lot of money from the national treasury, and we must do our best!"
Hearing the emperor's words, everyone obeyed, including Xing Ziang, who did not dare to stand up to object. The emperor was very satisfied with the situation, nodded, and said: "In addition, we must not relax on overseas matters. At the same time,
I also need to increase financial support to Yangzhou, improve ships, and add more sailors, all of which can be done... Overseas places must be turned into civilized places, the land of the Han Dynasty..."
After the emperor finished speaking, everyone suddenly realized that the emperor wanted to implement the policies of the two of them together. It seems that the treasury is not empty as Wen Rengong said in the past. These two are big projects. Can the treasury support them?
Are the two projects being carried out at the same time? The ministers looked at Yuan Feng. Yuan Feng had long been tired of Wen Renxi's style of only entering and not getting out. Now it was his turn to act, with a smile on his face and a proud arch.
He held his hand and said: "The national treasury is enough to bear the burden, and all the gentlemen can rest assured!"
It feels so good to be able to spend money from the national treasury freely...
Wang Fu looked at Xing Ziang coldly, thinking to himself, after I complete the Northern Chidao project and achieve success, I will show you that a kid will still be a kid after all!
Xing Ziang also had this idea in his heart. He must make the southern shipping matter extremely successful!
The emperor smiled and said: "In this case, I will order the prince to take care of the shipping to the south, and Xing Zi'ang to take care of the north. There must be no mistakes."
"As you command!"
Suddenly, all the officials were stunned, and after thinking about it carefully, the emperor seemed to have told the contrary. Wang Fu frowned, but he already understood in his heart, but Xing Ziang asked with some doubts: "Your Majesty... I am responsible...
.What happened to Chidao in the North?"
The emperor nodded and said: "That's right...don't say anything more, this matter is settled like this!"
Seeing that the emperor's attitude was clear and his mind was determined, Xing Ziang had no choice but to obey. The emperor smiled, resigned from the officials, and walked on the road. The officials were all discussing the emperor's decision. Isn't the emperor worried about these two things?
Aren't all the ministers trying their best? Aren't they worried that the local officials will object? Of course, there are only a few people who are bright in their hearts. Wang Fu walked on the road struttingly, thinking in his heart, the emperor acted like this because he knew that I and I
Xing Ziang will not ruin the national affairs for the sake of personal grudges.
At the same time, the emperor does not want us to gather a group of people to follow him, because he wants to disrupt the camp of me and Xing Ziang... As for local resistance, only building the south by ourselves is beneficial to the local officials, who will stop him?
, will he be at odds with himself because of Xing Ziang? The emperor is really becoming more and more... scheming...
After finishing the work in the temple, he was walking back when the little fat man suddenly followed him, which surprised the emperor. This man usually avoided him, so why did he dare to come over today? The emperor ignored him.
Entering the main hall, the little fat man sat next to him with a smile. The emperor did not look at him and asked: "What's the matter?"
"Father, I don't know why Xing Zi'ang's proposal should be handed over to Wang Fu, but Wang Fu's proposal should be handed over to Xing Zi'ang?"
"You do not understand?"
"My son really doesn't understand..."
"If you don't ask Xun You and Jia Xu, why do you ask me?"
"Could it be that I sent Xun You and Jia Xu to you just so that you can listen to some stories every day?" the emperor asked with some displeasure.
"But...father...why can't you tell me?"
"You have to understand that to be a king, you don't need to know how to march, how to govern, or how to strategize. To be a king, you only need to know who can march, who can govern, and who has strategies. You have to learn and observe
You should ask the capable people around you and use them at any time. There are countless talented people in the world. If you understand everything and do everything yourself, then what use are they? There is no need to spend food to feed them.
?”
"Learn to know people, learn to employ people, why I behave like this, even if you know it, you should pretend not to know, and ask more trusted people around you, so that they can make suggestions for you... In the future, I will work harder for you.
If you know everything about giving advice, no one will be willing to follow you...and no ministers will rush to give you advice..."
The little fat man was extremely shocked. His eyes widened, he took a breath, and solemnly said: "Thank you very much, my father, for your teachings!"
"Well..." The emperor glanced at him with some contempt, then waved his hand and let him leave.
When the little fat man walked out of the hall, he was still a little shocked. The thoughts of a king are unfathomable.
