The emperor looked at Zhou Shuren approvingly, "Last year our country starved to death many people due to food shortages, I am very heartbroken, this year the whole country is frugal only to save grain for the people, just as Zhou Hou said, the grain our country can produce. not much."
So first come first served, don't hesitate.
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard and felt excited. Why, because the envoys from more than ten countries spoke Chinese, and this time there was no need for translation. It can be seen that he has been studying Chinese with great care in recent years.
The only thing that makes him unhappy is that the envoys of various countries still use their own country's words when they talk to each other.
The emperor is sitting firmly on Diaoyutai. Now, in these years, whoever has food and who has absolute weapons is the boss. The emperor is not in a hurry.
Mr. Wen is depressed, the emperor trusts Zhou Shuren too much, and the tacit understanding between the monarch and ministers makes him feel powerless. He really doesn't understand that there are many capable people in the Manchu dynasty, but the emperors of the two dynasties value Zhou Shuren alone. No, there is also the prince. , The prince was very diligent in running the household department. He was so diligent that he wanted to go to the household department to block the prince, and he wanted to vomit blood just thinking about it.
The prince got the hint from the father and stepped forward, "My lords, the people of all countries can wait for food to save their lives."
Zhou Shuren sneered in his eyes, some countries are for the common people, while others are for the powerful. The grains that are exchanged are divided layer by layer, and very few of them are in the hands of the common people. The people still rely on themselves in the end.
Zhou Shuren took the words and made an alarmist, "Only alive is everything possible. If you really wait for the hungry people to riot, I'm afraid it will be difficult to return to the country."
Everyone in the hall wanted to look at Zhou Shuren, Zhou Shuren smiled slightly, as if the dangerous remarks just now were not what he said.
The emperor held his palm, and he thought of his father's dream again. Water can carry a boat and capsize it. Only when the people live in peace can the imperial power be stable. He is not afraid. With Zhou Shuren, the imperial power is now very stable.
The envoys of various countries were pierced by their eagerness to argue, and they lost their momentum in an instant, and some people were even very urgent.
After that, it went smoothly. One took the lead, and one after another, some people chose the materials to be replaced, and some people needed to think about leaving the palace.
The emperor was not satisfied, "I actually used rice, flour and other refined grains for coal, and there is no one for minerals."
Mr. Wen, "The initiative is in my hands, and the exchange for coal can only be coarse grains."
Zhou Shuren stopped interjecting, and let others discuss the next thing.
In Prince Liang's mansion, Rong Chuan brought his son to see Prince Liang.
King Liang was extremely surprised, "Why did you come back?"
This young man suffered hardships, and now he enjoys all the wealth he lacked in the past, and he must feel that Rong Chuan is lucky.
Rong Chuan, "I was idle in the mansion, so I wanted to go out for a walk. The fourth brother also knew that I went to the grassland, and a lot of things happened in the grassland. The person I was supposed to go to the battlefield, the fourth brother went to the last. Now, I haven't had a chance to listen to the fourth brother talk about the battlefield, and now I bring my son over to listen to it."
King Liang didn't think much about it. Although he was not in the capital, he also knew the difficulty of dividing the grasslands into states. This man had given a warning to kill and went back to the temple to cultivate himself. "If you don't find it annoying, I'm naturally happy to talk about it."
Ze'er smiled, "Fourth Uncle's nephew will bring you some tea."
King Liang snorted, "I can still drink the tea poured by the Prince of Qin, and your other uncles must be jealous."
This is the grandson that the father loves. Although they are all grandsons, they are graded because of the father's love. It is difficult for his son to see the father, even if the family banquet, the father will not pay attention.
Ze'er, "My nephew is a junior, it's right for the junior to pour tea for the elder."
King Liang was heartbroken. This was the grandson whom the father took with him to teach, and the father's heart was given to him.
Rong Chuan felt the fourth brother's emotions, so he didn't say a word.
Liang Wang's mood soon disappeared, and he talked about what happened in the Northeast battlefield. "The power of the artillery is huge, and it took many lives with one shot like ground meat. The scene at that time was very shocking."
When he used the artillery, he was also shocked for a long time.
King Liang was really no one talking. It was rare for Rong Chuan to see him. After chatting for a long time, he also said a lot of insights, "If it wasn't for my poor body, I would definitely build the Northeast and come back."
Rong Chuan just smiled, stop dreaming, and want to build it well, the emperor will not agree, "Now more and more foreign people gather at the border, it will be a matter sooner or later, it is better to solve it sooner, so as not to cause trouble. ."
After a pause, he continued: "There are changes between the two countries on the northeastern border."
When King Liang heard this, he narrowed his eyes. The news had not spread. It could be seen that it was a secret. The emperor really trusted his direct brother, and lowered his eyes and said, "Drink tea."
Rong Chuan achieved the purpose of his trip, and touched the glass with a smile.
Wu Mansion, Zhulan received the news and came to see Song Lan, "Is the child alright?"
The frost on Song Lan's face receded, "Old Madam, you are here, and you are worried."
Zhulan's hand has already touched the child's forehead, this is Wu Ming's youngest son, "How can a good child fall."
Song Lan wiped her tears with a veil, "This child is a playful person, and he has to go out in the winter. I didn't watch him for a while, and the child fell off the steps. Fortunately, he covered his head and wore it again. The thick cotton trousers you sent are not hurt or frightened."
Zhu Lan's heart skipped a beat. She liked Wu Ming's son, who was a stubborn one. He was also diligent when he came to the Zhou Mansion. It hurt her to rush over, but she wasn't Wu Ming's mother after all. "The affairs of this house are still up to you."
Song Lan was furious. She didn't take the concubine in her eyes. Even if it was given to Wu Ming by others, she only needed to have a son in her heart. The concubine was pregnant, and she didn't treat her harshly. There was no need. "You're worried."
"What did the doctor say?"
"I have already drank the soothing decoction, and I will be fine after a few days of rest."
Zhulan touched the child's cheek with a warm face, "If it really doesn't work, then send the two children to the Hou Mansion."
That's what Song Lan planned, but it's not easy to say it first. It's not her mother-in-law. She also wants to send the child back to her mother's house, but sending the child back to her mother's house is a big problem.
"What's the trouble? There are many children at home, and it just so happens that they can play together."
It was agreed to send the child there tomorrow, and Zhulan was about to leave. She was here to see the child, but she had just put on her cape, and before she could go out, she heard shouts from outside, "Old madam, help me, madam."
Bamboo Orchid, "..."
The old lady was calling her! Although she really wanted to see Zhaidou up close, but her identity didn't want to get involved.
Song Lan's face turned black. How many people in this mansion were bought, and the information was so well-informed.
Zhulan cleared her throat, "I won't go out first."
She can still hear shouts, this old woman can't do it, she still doesn't cover her mouth!
