My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 2959
"Of course, if Jin Taeun, the envoy of the Goguryeo Mission, is sincere, it doesn't hurt to sell it for a few percent more."

After Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, he immediately added another sentence.

Song Yu and the others were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other with weird expressions, or stroked their beards, or nodded with frowns.

Song Yu, Wei Yong, these important ministers who have been in the temple for decades, which one is not an old fox who has matured into a man.

After a little thought, they understood the meaning of Liu Mingzhi's words.

If you are sincere, it doesn't hurt to sell a few percent more.

So what is it to be sincere?

Hmm, tacit, tacit.

Song Yu let go of the beard in his hand, and quickly followed Young Master Liu.

"Your Majesty, I understand what you mean.

It's just that there is still a small problem. The old minister hopes that His Majesty can set a limit for the minister in advance. "

Liu Mingzhi directly understood what his uncle Song Yu wanted to ask, the shaking folding fan in his hand paused slightly, and his brows frowned slightly.

After a while, Liu Mingzhi glanced sideways at Song Yu who was beside him and said softly, "Sixty or seventy percent is fine, at most seventy-five percent."

"Yes, the old minister understands."

"My lords."

When everyone heard this, they immediately crowded towards Liu Mingzhi.

"Sir wait."

"Not only the missions of Goguryeo, but also the missions of Baekje, Siam, Annan...etc.

If they also want to buy excellent military equipment from our dragon, they must also sell them.

There is no reason to keep people away from the door-to-door business.

The imperial treasury is already abundant now, but there is such a thing as silver.

After all, the more the better! "

"Yes, I will obey your orders."

"That's about it for the time being. As for how to contact the Goguryeo mission, I'll leave it to Song Aiqing and Wang Aiqing, both of you."

"The old minister obeyed."

"King Wuyi, Mrs. Xia, Wei Aiqing, Tong Aiqing, when it's time for you to help out with suggestions, remember to help Song Aiqing and the others.

As the saying goes, one person counts the short, and two count the long.

If you want to eat meat, how can you do it without a little effort? "

"The minister understands, and the minister obeys."

Liu Mingzhi looked at the smiling faces of the crowd, and looked at his uncle Song Yu with a light smile.

"Song Aiqing."

"The old minister is here."

"How long will it take for those military equipment to be transferred from the state capitals of the capital to the capital?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the old minister has already received replies from officials from various states yesterday morning, and a lot of military equipment is already on the way to the capital.

The veteran estimated that it would take three days at the earliest and ten days at the latest. "

Liu Mingzhi nodded with a faint smile, then shifted his gaze to Yang Tao, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

"Ministry of Industry."

"The old minister is here."

"After the military equipment enters Beijing, the rest of the work will be handed over to your Ministry of Industry and Government Office."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, two days ago, the old minister ordered many colleagues to mobilize craftsmen."

"Okay, now I'm relieved.

By the way, there is one more thing you should remember. "

"His Majesty?"

Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, Liu Mingzhi silently closed the carved jade fan in his hand, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.

"When you eat meat, don't forget to give other lovers some soup."

Song Yu and the others were slightly taken aback, and then they came to their senses in an instant.

"The ministers understand, the ministers understand."

Liu Mingzhi replied with a nasal voice, changed direction and continued to move forward.

"It's good to understand, you should all know my temper, I hope you don't disappoint me."

"I dare not wait."

"During the transfer of military equipment from various prefectures in Gyeonggi to the capital, you can go to Honglu Temple for a while, take a look around, and make more contact with the envoys of the missions of various countries.

The conversation is speculative, invite them to go to restaurants and teahouses to taste our Dalong's delicacies, go to Tianxianglou, Zuichun Pavilion and other places to appreciate our Dalong's piano, poetry, calligraphy and painting, and the sound of silk and bamboo.

These are all possible. Where you go is your freedom, and I never interfere.

How many meals you can save for your family, and how much private money you can save, depends on your own ability. "

"Gudu."

"uh-huh."

"Hmph, cough, cough, cough."

"Your Majesty, this, this is not good."

"Yes, yes, yes, the ministers are all people of status, how can they mix with the barbarians."

"That's right, that's right, it's not suitable, it's not suitable, it's degrading."

Liu Mingzhi snorted and laughed a few times when he heard the people behind him who were clearly moved but still pretending to be serious.

"Hehehe, that's true, I was negligent.

That being the case, then just pretend I didn't say anything. "

"Your Majesty, don't... huh!
Your Majesty, it is understandable that other colleagues are unable to communicate with the envoys of various countries because of their official business.

However, as the Minister of the Honghe Temple, the old minister cared more about the envoys who lived in the Honghe Temple. This was the official duty of the old minister.

Please rest assured, Your Majesty, in order to let the envoys of various countries feel the prosperity of our Dalong Dynasty and experience the essence of our Dalong culture.

The veteran will definitely spare no effort. "

As soon as Wang Hezheng's voice fell, Song Yu, Du Chenghao and the others glared at him in unison.

"Fuck, Old Dog Wang, you are so fucking shameless."

"My mother, grandson thief, you want to eat alone."

"Old thief Wang, you will not end well."

"Wang, do you want to listen to what you are talking about?"

"Ahem, ahem, Your Majesty, it must be very hard for Mr. Wang to take care of so many missions by himself.

The minister has been an official in the court for so many years, and he has long been in love with his brother. How can he watch him exhausted because of his official duties.

The veteran is willing to share one or two for Lord Wang, in order to demonstrate the principle of mutual help among officials of our Dalong court. "

"Your Majesty, the old minister seconded the proposal."

"Du Shangshu's words are simply thunderous and thought-provoking, the old minister is too selfish.

The veteran is also willing to share a little pressure for Mr. Wang. "

"The minister waits for a second opinion."

Liu Mingzhi rolled his eyes angrily when he heard everyone's words of agreement.

A bunch of faceless old things.

"Don't delay the official business, otherwise, you understand."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the ministers will never dare."

"By the way, don't go too far, be careful, no one in this world is a fool."

"Sir, you understand."

Liu Chengzhi stretched out his hand and pinched his nose, looking at the court elders beside him with a strange expression, a look of doubt about life flashed in his eyes.

Are these shameless old guys really the people I knew before?
"Chengzhi."

"Ah? Hey, my son is here."

Liu Mingzhi reached out his hand and took out his Golden Dragon Token from his bosom, turned around and threw it towards his son Liu Chengzhi casually.

"then."

Liu Chengzhi subconsciously took the things thrown by his father, and after seeing the Golden Dragon Token in his hand, a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes.

"Father?"

"I have something to go to Sichuan. After the military preparations enter Beijing, you will be in charge of the follow-up matters."

"King Wuyi."

"The minister is here."

"As the deputy, you will do your best to assist Chengzhi in supervising the follow-up of the military preparations."

"My minister obeys."

"My lords."

"Sir wait."

"Except for King Wuyi, the second prince and the two princes are staying. You all go back and do your official duties."

"The ministers obey the order, and the ministers leave."

Song Yu and others gave a big gift, got up and left one after another.

Liu Mingzhi looked at Xia Gongming who was standing there motionless, and asked softly with a puzzled expression, "Master Xia, do you have anything else to report?"

"Your Majesty, are you leaving Beijing?"

"That's right, I'm going to Miaojiang in Shu."

"Your Majesty, it's not the old minister who spoiled your mood. As the king of a country, today, the big and small government affairs in the court..."

Without waiting for Xia Gongming to finish speaking, Liu Mingzhi directly raised his hand as a signal.

"My lord, my mother-in-law in Miaojiang, Sichuan is seriously ill."

Xia Gongming was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he hurriedly bowed and made a big gift.

"The old minister is confused, and the old minister is convicted."

"I don't want family affairs to affect the government affairs of the court. It's enough for you to be clear about this matter, sir, and don't spread it."

"The old minister understands that the old minister promises that no second person will know about this matter from the old minister."

"I believe in the virtue of the old man, go to work."

"The old minister obeys, and the old minister retires."

Liu Chengzhi glanced at Xia Gongming who turned to leave, and walked up to Young Master Liu with a nervous expression.

"Father, eldest sister, second sister, what happened to elder brother's grandmother? Is the situation serious?"

Seeing his son's nervous expression, Liu Mingzhi frowned and let out a long sigh.

"It's not clear what the exact situation is for the father.

Your grandma is old after all, maybe...

Ugh. "

"How could it be like this, father, why don't the children follow you to Miaojiang?

No, no, it's not just Hai'er, all our brothers and sisters have to follow.

Eldest sister, second sister, and elder brother's three grandmas are the grandmas of all our brothers and sisters. Grandma is in poor health. Children who are juniors, how can we not visit them. "

After Liu Mingzhi listened to his son's words, a gratified smile appeared on his distressed face.

"Chengzhi."

"father?"

"Your mother and all the aunts have already set off for a few days, and your elder sister, second sister, elder brother, elder sister-in-law, and nephew have already rushed over.

The filial piety of your brothers and sisters will be passed on to your grandma as a father.

There is no need to rush over to visit her old man in person.

My father has already left Beijing, so I have to rely on the Hall of Ten Kings where you brothers and sisters are located to handle all the government affairs in the imperial court. "

"But baby..."

"Chengzhi."

"The child is here."

"I don't want to be like this as a father, but I have to be like this.

Just like what my father said to Mrs. Xia just now, my father can't delay the government affairs of the court because of our family affairs.

In other words, we should not affect the affairs of the world because of our family affairs.

Children, housework is important, but world affairs are even more important.

If you have this kind of heart for the grandmother on your Aunt Qinglian's side, father is already satisfied.

After telling your grandma for my father, she will definitely be satisfied.

Her old man will understand the difficulty of you not being able to be filial in front of you.

Just do what the Father says. "

Liu Chengzhi looked at his father's firm expression, and sighed with a complicated expression.

"Oh, my son obeys."

Seeing his son's seemingly unwilling face, Liu Mingzhi raised his hand and patted his shoulder a few times.

"Silly boy, girl Jingyao, after the two of you moved into the East Palace, your father and your mother and aunts were not by your side.

Now that girl Jingyao is about to give birth, you, a husband, need to pay more attention to it.

Don't wrong Jingyao because of the government affairs of the court.

Otherwise, my father can't spare you. "

"Please don't worry, Dad, even if you don't tell the boy, the boy will not wrong the lady."

"It's good to know, there's nothing for you here, you go back first."

"Father, me! Child!"

Liu Mingzhi saw the awkward expression of the second son, the tangled expression of hesitating to speak, and asked softly, frowning: "What's the matter? Just say what you want to say, there is no need to hesitate."

Liu Chengzhi stretched out his hand and scratched his forehead, and glanced at Song Qing who was standing beside him with an embarrassed expression.

Seeing this, Song Qing punched Liu Mingzhi directly.

"Your Majesty, the flowers over there are not bad, I want to go and enjoy them."

Liu Mingzhi cast a gloomy glance at the second son, and directly reached out to stop Song Qing who wanted to avoid suspicion and leave.

"Brother, you don't have to."

"Your Majesty, the subject is still..."

"Ok?"

"Yes, the minister will not go."

"Chengzhi, your uncle is your father's life-and-death brother. You can just say what you want, and there is no need to shy away from it."

Seeing his father's gloomy gaze, Liu Chengzhi seemed to have realized something, and hurriedly performed a junior etiquette to Song Qing.

"Uncle, please forgive me, the child has no other intentions.

The main reason is that what Haier wants to say is a little embarrassing, and Haier feels a little embarrassed.

I hope my uncle will not be offended. "

Song Qing hastily put his hands up, and waved them indifferently.

"It's okay, it's okay, everyone has things they are embarrassed about, it's human nature, uncle won't care."

"Thank you uncle."

"Father, it's like this, because Jingyao is pregnant, so there has been a long time between us...

It's been a long, long time, and I haven't done anything about husband and wife. "

Liu Mingzhi and Liu Chengzhi looked at Liu Chengzhi's increasingly embarrassed face, and after looking at each other, they finally understood why this kid was so embarrassed just now.

It's really inappropriate to say this kind of thing in front of my father and uncle.

Liu Mingzhi let out a muffled cough, and frowned with his fingers.

"and then?"

"So Jingyao was worried that the baby would be overwhelmed, so she thought about giving the baby a side room.

Besides, Jingyao has already selected a candidate for the baby, so it's time to report to your father and mother.

The boy couldn't make up his mind for a while, so he wanted to ask his father what he meant. "

"So that's the case, so do you want to take the side room yourself?"

"Baby...baby...baby is okay."

Seeing Erzi's erratic eyes, Liu Mingzhi instantly understood what was going on in his heart.

Young Master Liu walked unhurriedly to the side of the corridor, looked up at the direction of the East Palace and pondered for a long time, then turned and glanced at his son behind him.

"Which girl did Jingyao choose for you?"

"Cai Ningning, the eldest granddaughter of Cai Yuanchao's family, former doctor of the Ministry of Punishment."

"Cai Yuanchao, former doctor of the Ministry of Punishment, oh~ so it's him."

Liu Mingzhi muttered to himself, then turned his head to look at Song Qing beside him.

"Brother, have you met Cai Yuanchao's granddaughter?"

"I've never seen it, after all, I'm a generation behind, and there are very few chances to get in touch.

However, when Cai Yuanchao was in court, his reputation was quite good.

His eldest son, Cai He'an, is now the governor of a state in the imperial court. I think the girl Cai Ningning should have good morals. "

Liu Mingzhi frowned and thought for a while, then nodded suddenly.

"Cai He'an, governor of Yezhou?"

"Brother, I only heard about it from your uncle. I don't know exactly which state I served as the governor."

Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly as a signal, and looked at Liu Chengzhi with a puzzled expression.

"Is Cai Ningning in the capital now?"

"here I am."

"Are Jingyao and Cai Ningning very familiar?"

"My boy heard from Jingyao that the two sisters were close friends back then. A few months ago, Cai Ningning returned to Beijing to visit Mr. Cai Yuanchao, so the two of them got together again."

"It turns out that, with Jingyao's character, a girl who can become close friends with her should not be far behind in virtue.

As a father, I have no opinion on this matter, so let's get along in private first.

If you get along well, just mention it to your mother. "

"Hey, thank you dad."

"Go and do your own business."

"Yes, baby retire."
