v2.Chapter 345

Seeing off Chu Jun Wang and his party, the palace began to prepare for the Spring Festival.

This year, the arrangement of the palace, sacrificial ceremony and new year banquet by the Ministry of rites are much more grand than in previous years.

The country is stable, the people live in peace, and the major festivals should be arranged accordingly, which can reflect the national strength of Beili.

In addition to Dongling, Ningdi also occupies half of Dongling. The wish of the former emperors to unify Kyushu has been realized.

Yufu was only 16 years old after the age of the emperor. She was still very young. She had no problem in annexing half of Dongling in the rest of her imperial career.

"There is no problem in annexing Kyushu by force, but this is never the real meaning of unifying Kyushu."

When all the ministers talked about Dongling, Yu Fu said, "if we take over Xikun and Dongling by force regardless of the consequences, the national strength of Beili will be enough to defeat them in the father's generation. But the ancestors' explanation is not to hurt the common people, not to let them be poisoned by the war. The territory of the two countries we laid down before was due to civil strife in the two countries. Now the area under the control of emperor Ning is still stable, so we can't invade at will. "

When war begins in peacetime, it must be the common people who suffer.

This is the bottom line of Yufu. She will never allow anyone to fight rashly just for annexing Dongling.

One official said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Ning is fatuous and incompetent, which is well known. Even now, under his control, Dongling people are still stable, but sooner or later chaos will come. How can a fatuous King rule his own country? "

"Then wait for the chaos to come out, and Beili will never act unjustly, and will never take the initiative to fight against the friendly countries."

Yufu's voice is light, containing endless calm and firm, let people know that her mind will never change easily.

Some of the ministers in the central court agreed with and some opposed it.

Some are hesitant, others are on the lookout.

Those who agree with him think that Beili has been waiting for hundreds of years, but they don't care about waiting for a few years or more, so it's more important to maintain the justice of Beili Wang Shi.

Opponents believe that while the morale of the military is booming and the situation of reunification is beginning to emerge, we should work hard to take the last piece of territory, so as to avoid further trouble in the future.

"I think your majesty is right."

Gu Shubai stepped out and arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty has the hearts of all the people in the world, and does not take an inch of land as a benefit. This is the virtue of the Ming emperor. What's more, your Majesty's heart is derived from the legacy of the previous kings, which reflects your Majesty's filial piety. Do you want to force your majesty to be an unfilial person? "

He fully supports Yu Fu's decision. A tall hat is suddenly pulled down. Who dares to lead?

To say that it was unfilial for Yu Fu to disobey the emperor's will, wouldn't it be unfaithful for these ministers to encourage Yu Fu to send troops?

It's better to keep your mouth shut if this accusation doesn't stir up.

Some people take a look at Gu Shubai. Hum, they know that if they listen to their wife's words, do they still have their own opinions?

Tianyunpo also came out and said: "general Gu is right. What's more, our Beili country is powerful. Why don't you worry that emperor Ning won't take the initiative to join us? If we take the initiative, it seems that we are stingy. "

The Grand Master also agreed.

Something's wrong. The grand division and general Gu have never dealt with each other. Why are they so good now?

Yu Fu didn't say anything about it, so he got up and said, "well, there's no need to discuss this. From today to the end of the new year, we will take a rest at the end of the new year from tomorrow. We will discuss everything after the copy is opened. "

Having said that, with a wave of big sleeves, the government affairs of the court hall were temporarily finished.

At the same time, Dongling, the central court is in a tangled chaos, without the joy of the new year.

Recently, some ministers have proposed to attach to Beili, saying that most of the mainland of Kyushu is in Beili's hands. Instead of waiting for Beili to attack Dongling, it's better to take the initiative to attach to Beili. Maybe we can keep peace.

As time went on, more and more ministers took this suggestion seriously and wrote to Ning Chengzhi one after another.

Ning Chengzhi has a headache.

At first, he was firmly opposed to this view. His ministers wrote that he should be attached to Beili, which was tantamount to peeling off his Dragon Robe?

What's the position of the Gu family in Beili? Once they are attached, how can Gu Shubai let them go?!

He killed several ministers who initially proposed, but he couldn't stop this trend. At the end of the new year, some courtiers went to Beili with their wives and children in the name of visiting relatives!

Dongling's official, if you don't do it, you might as well go to Beili and maybe have a future!

I heard that the courtiers who fled to Beili at first also got suitable jobs in Beili. Dongling court was ready to move and fled many people.

Now Ning Chengzhi did not dare to kill any more. He could only keep the four gates of Lin'an well guarded and forbid the ministers and their families to go in and out.

Now, the courtiers and their families are restricted from visiting relatives and friends when they want to take advantage of the Spring Festival.

Ning Chengzhi was hiding in the bedroom, and he didn't dare to go to the imperial study to see the fold, and he didn't dare to meet any ministers.

For a moment, he also thought that it was really boring for him to be the emperor. If he belonged to Beili No, I can't. If I didn't want to take care of the whole family of Marquis's house, maybe I could.But with that, now he wants to belong to Beili. Isn't he looking for his own death?

No, death can't be attached!

"Your Majesty?"

There was a woman's voice outside the closed door of the bedroom.

Ning Chengzhi subconsciously shrunk for a moment, and suddenly reflected that it was the voice of Princess Li. He had made Princess Li a noble princess, and was worthy of power in the harem.

Thinking of Li Guifei's affection for many years, now looking around, I can't find an old friend like her any more. Ning Chengzhi slowed down and said, "come in."

The door of the hall was pushed open. Princess Li came in from the outside of the hall with a box in her hand and a smile. "How can your majesty sit on the ground? It's cold on the ground. Please get up and try the soup made by my concubine. "

After all these years, Princess Li can only make soup.

It's rare that everything has not changed in her. It seems that he is still the king with great power and donglingjiangshan, and she is also the tender and jealous concubine around him.

Ning Chengzhi wry smile, "this soup will not add deer antler what of it?"

Li Guifei blushed and gave him a gentle push. "Your Majesty teased me again. What kind of person is my concubine?"

She's not that kind of person Who else is that kind of person?

Ning Chengzhi is reluctant to tease her at the moment. After all, she is the last one to stay by her side.

He looked at Princess Li's hand and said, "what kind of soup are you cooking today?"

Princess Li was very excited. "It's cold now. My concubine looks at the emperor's weakness recently. She doesn't like to visit the Royal Garden any more. It's said that beef is the best way to complement cold, so I cooked beef soup for your majesty. There are a lot of tonic herbs in it. Please have a taste. "

Ning Chengzhi sat down quietly to drink the soup. Li Guifei looked like she was in high spirits. She leaned against the table and supported her head with her hands. She opened her eyes to see his reaction.

He chewed it, and the beef stew was so bad that he could swallow it without much chewing.

He said with a smile, "it's delicious. Drink it yourself."

Then she asked her to sit down and ordered the maids to serve him soup. Princess Li sat down according to her words and they sat side by side drinking soup.

After a long silence, there was only the sound of the spoon gently touching the wall of the bowl, and the subtle sound of chewing and swallowing.

Ning Chengzhi suddenly said, "I'll make you queen. Do you agree?"

Princess Li's spoon fell to the ground in fright. She looked up at Ning Chengzhi in disbelief. She was both happy and surprised. "Your Majesty, you Is that true? "

"It's true."

Ning Chengzhi put down the spoon and said, "I'm over 20 years old. I've been on the throne for several years, and I don't even have a queen. You are the only one with the highest position in the harem, so you should be established. "

Princess Li was so grateful that she knelt down to thank her, "thank you, your majesty, thank you

The grace that she had never thought of before fell on her so easily that she had to be terrified and ecstatic.

Ning Chengzhi looked at her happy appearance and couldn't help smiling, "I'm afraid that at this time, only you will be happy to be crowned queen, right? If I want to marry the daughter of another minister, they may not be happy. "

Li imperial concubine a Leng, raise a head to still smile like a flower, "what does your majesty say? Who wouldn't like it? It's a great honor for every woman to be a queen. It's too late for me to be happy. This is the grace your majesty bestowed on me. I know that this is not what others want from your majesty! "

She did not know whether she was comforting Ning Chengzhi or herself.

Ning Chengzhi had some consolation in the end, nodded, stretched out his hand to her and helped her up from the ground, "get up. I will order the Ministry of rites to make arrangements for the ceremony. But now, in the new year, I may have to hurt you a little. "

This is his own excuse to ease the embarrassment. In fact, Dongling did not have the extra money to arrange a grand ceremony, and the Minister of the central court did not have the heart to prepare for it.

Dongling has gone to today's situation, has long been no longer prosperous.

Li Guifei or efforts to show the sweetest smile, "Your Majesty rest assured, I understand."

Understand?

What does she understand?

……

Two days later, Ning Chengzhi ordered his envoys to go to Beili.

Nominally, it's to thank Beili for suppressing the uprising for Dongling. Actually, it's to take this opportunity to inquire about Beili's attitude and please Beili by the way.

Of course, the more important thing is to stabilize the people in the Dongling Dynasty.

All the courtiers were worried that Beili would attack Dongling with force at any time. Now Ning Chengzhi is willing to bow his head a little and give a big gift. It's better than doing nothing.

When Dongling's envoys left Lin'an, a group of envoys came to Lin'an.

"Report back to your majesty, there are envoys outside the city asking to see your majesty!"

Because the four gates of Lin'an were forbidden by Ning Chengzhi, and the courtiers and their families were not allowed to go in and out at will, the news of the envoy's visit was directly sent to the palace.

Ning Chengzhi was a little happy, "is it an envoy sent by Beili? By coincidence, I sent envoys to Beili, and they came! "The informed soldier arched his hand and said, "my Lord, it's not from Beili. The envoys, dressed in strange clothes, said that they were from the sangyi Kingdom and came to see your majesty. "

Sang Yiguo?

Ning Chengzhi had never heard of this country in the mainland of Kyushu. He thought that there were bold people playing tricks on him. When he wanted the soldiers to arrest these people for punishment, he suddenly thought of something.

"Is it the sangyi country overseas?"

The soldier said, "that's what those people said. They also took out the national documents and customs clearance documents, as well as two carts of treasures. They said it was a gift from the king of sangyi to his majesty. We dare not neglect it, so we have to report back to your majesty. "

Ning Chengzhi said: "it is said that there is an island country named sangyi in the Far East Sea. Because they are island countries, their shipbuilding industry is very developed. They came to the mainland of Kyushu hundreds of years ago. They also learned a lot of culture from us and took a lot of books and crafts with them. But I have never heard of them in the last hundred years. How can they come back at this time? "

He thought that it was not a bad thing for a remote island country to come to mainland Kyushu to learn something, not to mention that they brought treasures.

Now Dongling is losing a lot of money because of the war, and the Treasury is empty. Since it's coming, it's not for nothing.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand, "go to all the courtiers first, and then welcome the envoys in. In particular, we should inform Honglu temple as soon as possible to arrange reception for envoys. "

"Yes, your majesty."

At the end of the new year, Ning Chengzhi suddenly ordered people to invite the ministers to the palace.

But I heard that sang Yi sent envoys and had to cheer up.

In any case, as long as Dongling is still there for a day, they can't insult the national prestige and let a small barbarian country see a joke.

All the ministers were dressed in the palace, and the envoys of sangyi state were also introduced into the palace, which attracted much attention all the way.

When people came to the golden hall, Ning Chengzhi was surprised.

There were seven or eight men in the upper hall. They were all men, wearing high black hats on their heads, wide white robes and sleeves on their bodies, and embroidered with golden chrysanthemum patterns.

The black hat is as long as a small arm, but even if they wear such a high hat on their heads, these envoys are no taller than the ministers in the Palace -

their stature is too short. The adult men are shorter than the ordinary women in Dongling, not to mention the tall men in Beili.

It's impossible for sangyi country to specially select dwarfs to send envoys to other countries. If you think about it, ordinary people in their country are afraid to be even smaller.

Ning Chengzhi can't help laughing. The country of barbarism is not only located on a desolate island, but also the characters are so small. How can people not despise it?

After that minister approached, Qi Qi bowed and said, "I've seen your majesty Dongling."

They don't kneel!

Ning Chengzhi was rather displeased, and the ministers at the bottom had already made a statement to question him, "dare to ask you what kind of status your envoys are in sangyi kingdom?"

The first envoy said modestly: "the next official is the second prime minister of sangyi state."

"Hum, I'm just a second-class official. Why don't I kneel when I see your majesty?"

The emissary raised his eyes and looked at Ning Chengzhi, still with a modest smile, "because today's Dongling has only a small half of its territory, and it seems that it can't even reach half of it. If I see his majesty Beili, I will kneel down. "

The courtiers suddenly burst into an uproar. Ning Chengzhi frowned and was furious. "How dare you humiliate me?"

Just a small barbarian country dares to look down on him. No matter how he still owns half of Dongling's territory, or his majesty, what is a second grade Minister of sangyi?

"I'm not here to humiliate your majesty. On the contrary, I'm here to shame your majesty."

The short emissary was not timid at all. He said calmly, "Your Majesty, if you want to get back half of the land you gave to Beili, you should listen to me. I have a way for your majesty to take back the country, even "Down with Beili."

The Hall fell into silence.

For a long time, the ministers could not help laughing, even laughing.

Some ministers said, "it's up to you? Do you know that any soldier in Beili will come out as high as you two stacked together! You are just a small barbarian country. How dare you speak up and threaten to take down Beili? "

In the heart of Dongling's courtiers, this is absolutely impossible.

Being satirized and insulted, the envoys of small barbaric countries were not irritated at all. They still patiently said, "our country is small, but our navy is very developed. As far as I know, the three countries in Kyushu mainland are good at land war, but not at sea war. Your majesty, if we launch a sea war, do we have no chance of winning? "

This remark made people ponder for a moment.

Sangyi had no strong points, but the shipbuilding industry was quite developed. Otherwise, they could not have sent people across the sea to Kyushu a hundred years ago to learn the culture and various crafts of Kyushu.

Just looking at their clothes, we can see that although the shape has been changed to be nondescript, high hat and white clothes, from a distance we still think it is white impermanence. But if you look at the texture of the clothes carefully, it's exquisite. At first glance, it's the textile technology you learned from the mainland of Kyushu.The left Minister of sangyi state added, "we also have guns like Beili."

This sentence is just like a huge stone throwing into the sea, setting off a huge wave in people's hearts!
