Destiny Only Han

Chapter 781 Liu Ying: Excuse me, what should I do if I am the emperor but my sister beats me up, wait online, urgent...

Luoyang Palace.

Under the bright sunshine, the imperial garden, which has a somewhat Jiangnan water town style, looks bright and pretty.

This is the front hall area of ​​Luoyang Palace, which belongs to the left and right prime ministers, as well as the offices of bureaucrats under the jurisdiction of Jiuqing.

Sangong, that is, Xiangguo, Taiwei and Doctor Yushi, they are distinguished and have the privilege of opening a mansion and establishing a dental office, so their office is outside the palace.

Of course, they themselves have a separate yard on the other side of the palace as an office, so that they can be summoned by Liu Ying at any time on weekdays to consult state affairs.

Although, apart from Cao Shen, the remaining two old guys were never around...

Going west along the garden, passing through a tall and majestic palace gate, you will arrive at the square in front of the palace paved with white marble. From here, go north and pass through two palaces in turn. The moat, even if it has really entered Luoyang Palace.

Magnificent and beautiful, except for the high wires and water towers that seem a bit abrupt...

However, holding a stack of memoirs in his hand, Zhang Buji had neither time to appreciate nor complain. Confined by the rules of the royal family, he just hurried all the way, that is, bowed his head and walked quickly in small steps...

It was just that when he walked under the main hall, there was a sound of messy footsteps, and then, Zhang Buyi saw a hundred gray-haired old men staggering down, with expressions on their faces like dead fathers...,

Zhang Buyi suppressed his gloating smile, and just stood aside, with a solemn but not respectful expression.

After all, he is the heir, but this is not important, what is important is that he is the princess and the emperor's son-in-law, so naturally he does not need to bow his head to the elders and those with higher status in the royal family.

On the contrary, those old men who saw Zhang Buyi straightened up their clothes a little and took the initiative to bow their hands in salute.

"I've seen Zhongshu Pushe..."

For a moment, Zhang Buyi's mouth made a sound of gnashing of teeth.

Buttercup is a good job.

In the Qin and Han dynasties, the archer was in charge of martial arts, so the chief of the officials was called Pushe.

But the bad thing is the word Zhongshu.

According to the official system of the Han Dynasty, the Zhongshu Yezhe Ling was in charge of the guidance, reception, and ceremonies of the inner palace. It sounds okay, but it is in charge of eunuchs. After all, they have to enter and leave the inner palace...

Therefore, it is easy for people to associate Zhongshu Pushe with Zhongshu Yezheling...

Zhang Buyi was stunned for five seconds, nodded with a smile on his face, and then went up the stairs.

........................

in the temple.

Zhongshu Yezhe ordered the Bank of China to quickly replace the bad tea and re-brew the real Yuqian tea.

Liu Ying picked up the teacup, which was as thin as a cicada's wings, gently lifted the lid, greedily sniffed the fragrance, and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm stingy, let them drink such a good tea, it's like a cow chewing a peony." ..."

The Bank of China said it was very clever and stood aside without saying anything.

But at the door, there was a tired and sad voice: "What good tea, let me see..."

Liu Ying winked invisibly first, and signaled Bank of China to put away the tea jar, then looked up at the door, frowned and said, "Why are you here?"

Zhang Buyi had a bit of anger on his face: "Didn't you say that a man should make a contribution, so you arranged for me to serve in the court? Now, the report sent from the south is the best in the second class..."

"Bring it here." Liu Ying nodded lightly.

Nowadays, regarding urgent documents, there are two levels: A and B. Among them, the highest level of A is classified as urgent and needs to be dealt with immediately. As for the highest level of B, most of them are reports of things that have already happened, and they just want to get a reply as soon as possible.

But before Zhang Buyi could take a few steps, Bank of China, who was standing beside him, said that he floated over, and then floated back again, still maintaining the posture of bending over like a prawn, but there was already an extra memorial in his hand.

Amazing... Zhang Busu was dumbfounded.

Liu Ying has long been used to it, just reached out to take it, and drank tea while reading.

"The fight was good. The South China Sea won a complete victory. The homeland was conquered. The natives on the island were either captured or killed. The seedlings cultivated before are being transplanted. In five or six years, there will be no more troubles for rubber..."

Well, the so-called homeland refers to an old map he found in the Qin Palace. Although the shape of Hainan Island is wrongly drawn, it is still marked as the territory of Qin.

Therefore, the territory of Qin is naturally the territory of Han.

Going to the island to fight is nothing more than wanting to take back the promised land inherited from the ancestors, not aggression and expansion!

Hearing Liu Ying's low voice, Zhang Buyi became very curious, took two steps forward, and then stood still.

Without him, on both sides of the colonnade, four tiger guards with long halberds came out, with serious expressions and piercing eyes, staring intently.

They were not worried about Zhang Buyi's assassination of the king, but mainly because of the rules.

When foreign ministers meet the emperor, especially when they speak close to each other, they must be accompanied by tiger and cardinal guards, and use long halberds to press the foreign minister's ribs, so that no matter what happens to the other party or the emperor's order, they can stab the other party immediately. Wear it in pairs, then lift it up and throw it out, so that the palace won't be stained with blood...

Therefore, if Zhang Buyi took two more steps forward, the Huben guards would follow the rules and use their long halberds to press Zhang Buyi's ribs.

This is the feudal imperial power, which is supreme and treats all officials as bandits.

Liu Ying was silent for a while, and gently waved her hand to signal the Huben guards to retreat. Seeing this scene, Zhang Buyi showed a bit of disbelief and flushed with excitement.

After all, since the implementation of the Huben system, in the entire Han Dynasty, only Liu Jiao, Liu Jia, and Lu Wan, Xiao He, Zhang Liang, and the brothers of the Lu family did not need to be held by the halberd when they formally met Liu Bang. under the ribs.

In addition, even those who are as close as Fan Kui are the same when they meet Liu Bang!
And now, he has also stepped into this privileged circle!

To a certain extent, he is on an equal footing with his father, Zhang Liang and Zhang Zifang, the three outstanding figures in the early Han Dynasty!

Zhang Buyi suppressed his urge to jump up and shout loudly, walked up to Liu Ying very calmly, cupped his hands and asked, "What is written on it..."

Liu Ying explained with a smile:
"I took down a big island in the south, which originally belonged to Xiang County. Before that, no matter whether it was Qianqin or Zhao Tuo, they didn't have much intention to go to the island to declare their presence..."

"Isn't this a bit of a shortage of rubber now? I thought, if Nanhai County can grow rubber, it makes no sense that the island can't grow it, so I let Chen Ying and the others wait for the opportunity to attack the savages on the island, and restore the pre-Qin period. rule of..."

"Rubber?" Zhang Buji was stunned for a moment, and asked with a frown, "I remember you gave some seedlings to the envoys of the Nanyang feudal kingdoms, let them return to China to plant, and then sold them to us?"

"Since you can buy it cheaply, why do you have to grow it yourself? It takes time and effort, and the price is more expensive than imported..."

"You can't say that." Liu Ying shook her head: "What if they don't sell you? What if they ask for a price increase? Or they have mastered the process of making rubber from gum and are unwilling to sell you cheap raw materials. Are you selling your finished product at a high price?"

Zhang Buyi shook his head indifferently: "Then fight..."

It's bad, why is this big man everywhere fighting crazy? There must be something wrong with the system... Liu Ying curled her lips invisibly, and then said:

"War is a continuation of politics."

"There is a saying in military strategists: Soldiers, the great affairs of the country, the place of death and life, the way of survival, must be investigated!"

"So, the use of force is always the last resort. Before that, there are other means that can be used."

"Such as economic blockade, trade sanctions..."

"For example, if we can produce a large amount of rubber in our country, as long as we build a corresponding reserve, the small countries in Nanyang are not willing to sell us rubber at a low price, then on the one hand, we can achieve self-sufficiency in a short period of time, on the other hand On the one hand, through means such as economic blockade, they have bankrupted their domestic rubber-growing farmers and related workshops!"

"Then, how to get them to sign the alliance under the city, how to get enough to make up for our losses, needless to say?"

"Treacherous, treacherous as always..." Zhang Buyi gave a thumbs up.

... Forget it, just think he is praising me... Liu Ying bulged her cheeks, and then asked with a smile: "Why don't you ask those old guys who came out from here, why is it... um, that expression?"

This guy is showing off again, but it doesn't hurt to listen to it... Zhang Busu complained in his heart, but he still asked very cooperatively: "Yeah, why do they look like they are dead?"

This is what you said, I have nothing to do with the rain... Liu Ying said with a smile:

"Remember what I said before, correcting Shuo Yi's clothes? Now that the dust has settled, after this year's Spring Festival, that is, after October, a new calendar will be promulgated, with January as the beginning of the year, and at the same time Great Sage Changing Yuan!"

Zhang Buji was taken aback, and asked repeatedly: "Oh? They compromised? No, I asked this morning. Although the price of cotton is still falling, there is still a lot of room for the price you imagined... You're not waiting any longer?"

"Forgiveness and forgiveness." Liu Ying said softly: "Not only my father, but also your father, and Xiao Xiang also advised me veiledly, with the bargaining chips I have now, it is enough to achieve the set target."

"Increasing and aggressive, although you may be able to get a good profit for a while, but in the long run, you will definitely spit everything out... For example, the former Qin Dynasty..."

"I know this!" Zhang Buyi interrupted Liu Ying excitedly, and began to read in a cadence: "The land is the Qin Dynasty, and I still hold the salary to put out the fire. The salary is not exhausted, and the fire is not extinguished..."

"No wonder I said that you suddenly wrote "Six Kingdoms" from time to time. Was it inspired by this incident?"

"The whip pierces the inside, hits the nail on the head, it's amazing!"

I'm sorry Su Laoquan, if there is an afterlife, I will give you half as compensation... Liu Ying flattened her mouth: "Do you think it's good? My father said after reading it that I mean something, called me over and scolded me for half an hour ..."

"Ah, this..." Zhang Buyi was stunned for a moment, and changed the topic: "In other words, you plan to buy the cotton in their hands at a price higher than the previous market price?"

Liu Ying nodded: "Yes, the exchange of benefits..."

Zhang Buyi asked: "National funds? Private pockets?"

Liu Ying smiled: "Naturally, it is a national coffers. After all, it is an act of the state to correct Shuoyi's sex. How can there be any reason to use my small treasury? Besides, you know me well. No spare money!"

But you can borrow it, such as your Pixiu... Zhang Buyi pouted pointedly.

Just kidding, that pixiu always comes in and out, bah, it can only go in and out... Liu Ying shook her head sadly, and then said: "Although the national money is used, it must not be a loss, otherwise the current governance of millet Shi Yanzechi still doesn't eat me?"

Well, Manghou Lu (nài) Zhi, the original Zhisu Neishi, passed away a year ago.

It's just that it's different from the ending of the country without children in the original history. The old man may not be old, or he may have taken too many tonics such as epimedium and rejuvenated, and gave birth to a son and a daughter one after another.

Therefore, at the Summer Welcome Ceremony, Liu Bang, with a bit of grief and joy, awarded a crown representing the marquis and a piece of Danshu Iron Coupon to a toddler...

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Zhang Buji became more and more curious, and asked, "How can I not lose money? Teach me, now I don't have much cotton in stock..."

Liu Ying said with a smile: "I'm afraid you won't be able to learn, because the price of your cotton cloth is affected by the price of cotton, and the cost is very high!"

Zhang Buyi tilted his head and did not speak.

"Well, it's really nothing. Hu Tian is snowing in August. Although the sun is still shining brightly here, the northern grasslands are about to fall for the first snow of the year..." Liu Ying cherished it for a while: "So , Aya asked us to buy a batch of cotton jackets and quilts at a low price, so that the herdsmen on the grassland can better survive this severe winter."

"After all, this is the first year that the Huns belonged to the Han Dynasty, and they must give some policy assistance..."

Zhang Buyi nodded in agreement, and then put on a flattering smile on his face: "Based on our relationship, you know..."

He wants to undertake this project, and hopes that Liu Ying will take the initiative and not be ungrateful...

Otherwise, he does not promise not to use Liu Le first...

I can't look down on these second generations of power who use power for personal gain and embezzle state assets... Liu Ying's eyes were full of contempt, and she sneered:
"Okay, here you are. Aya's offer is [-] yuan for a padded gown or a sheep, but the padded jacket must be at least six feet long and weigh twelve catties... can you accept it?"

Zhang Buyi was stunned for a moment: "Is there any subsidy? You said earlier that you would give policy assistance..."

Liu Ying shook her head: "The most tax-free..."

Zhang Buyi was furious: "What kind of policy bias is this? How much is a catty of cotton? Do you want me to give it to her for nothing!"

Don't let Aya hear this, or she will make you bankrupt... Liu Ying smiled silently, with a sarcasm on her face: "Can't you do it? You're useless if I give you a chance!"

Zhang Buyi asked, poking his neck, "Then let me ask you, now that cotton and cotton cloth are so expensive, how can you meet Aya's needs and still make money?"

"Okay, I'll teach you how to behave!" Liu Ying took a sip from the teacup:
"First of all, although the price of the cotton I bought from those old nobles is not beautiful, the cotton cloth I make cotton robes is basically half sold for free... Calculated in this way, the gross profit of each cotton jacket is about [-] yuan .”

"Well, if you count the shipping costs and losses, it's actually not a loss or a profit. But, I won the hearts of the people and gained the trust that is more precious than gold!"

"This is the best harvest!"

Well, in fact, the northern nomads are not as ambitious as the wolves said in the history books. The ordinary herdsmen are actually as simple as the farmers in the Central Plains, and they just want to live a good life.

But no matter what, although the grassland is rich and vast, it doesn't produce many things they need every day.

Therefore, it is necessary to exchange business with the Central Plains Dynasty in the south.

But the crux of the problem is that when the nomadic thinking and the concept of the weak and the strong that the grassland people are accustomed to collide with the farming civilization of the merchants in the Central Plains in the south and the business without profiteers, disputes are inevitable. When the two parties in dispute use whips and knives to reason Then there will be war.

Therefore, in order to govern the grassland, it is not just bloody suppression, or the so-called sheep cannibalism, it is important to reshape their three views, and transform the nomadic thinking that is rough, barbaric, and immoral for survival into what the Han people pursue concept.

Fortunately, today's Han Dynasty is the light of civilization on this planet.

Well, in fact, during the Battle of Hexi, the imprisoned Huns 'actively' embraced civilization...

After listening to Liu Ying's deafening words, Zhang Buyi nodded his head heavily, but immediately squinted his eyes and asked, "No, you almost fooled me! Let me ask you, where did your cheap cotton cloth come from?"

Liu Yingqi asked: "Do you have a headache?"

Zhang Buyi shook his head blankly: "It doesn't hurt, what's wrong?"

Liu Ying smiled and said, "When a person has a brain, shouldn't he have a headache?"

Zhang Buji was furious and clenched his fists tightly, but he looked at the tiger guards and halberd-wielding Zhonglang standing under the pillars, and could only swallow his anger and admit his cowardice.

However, he will never let it go.

He is going to sue his wife!
Hey, being an emperor is so boring... Liu Ying shook her head invisibly.

In the past, he thought that being an emperor was the most beautiful thing in the world, and the imperial power was supreme, and everyone responded to it, but in fact, he realized that the pressure was great after sitting in this position.

After all, any decision he makes at will will affect the lives of tens of millions of people, and he needs to be cautious and considerate.

The important thing is that there are no more friends who dare to play and scold him...

Everyone in the world is suffering, but the most suffering is the Son of Heaven... Liu Ying sighed softly again, and became a little dispirited: "You go, I want to be quiet..."

Who is Jingjing... Zhang Buyi was taken aback for a moment, then stood up, bowed in salute, and left the palace backwards.

Liu Ying leaned against the table, clasped her hands to support her chin, her eyes flickered and remained silent for a long time, before she finally picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and casually commented on the memorabilia in front of her.

Among them, Chen Ying and others reported the suggestion that Nanhai County and Xiang County jointly manage Lingao temporarily, which is naturally a "possible" word. After all, it has been discussed in detail for a long time before, and now it can be done step by step.

As for the other request that needs to be dealt with as soon as possible, it is Aya's request.

This point, Liu Ying has already arranged it properly.

When he imposed ten times the tariff on the poisoned cotton cloth, he had already expected that the other party would have piles of cotton cloth that could not be sold.

Therefore, this is a good time to buy the bottom.

His original plan at the time was to sell it to Donghu or North Korea after buying the bottom, but what he didn't expect was that the fleet had not yet returned, and he received Aya's request.

Therefore, the two difficulties of cotton cloth sales and receiving cotton have just been solved!
Well, although there is a trade embargo, the feudal dynasty, especially this era when the imperial power was far away from the Qing Dynasty, was so inflated that it could kill princes at will.

The emperor naturally has the highest interpretation power of legal provisions, as well as additional immunity.

The cotton cloth imported by Liu Ying from Shendu is naturally not included in the double taxation, not only that, but also does not pay taxes...

That's why he said Zhang Buyi couldn't do it...

Hey, it's too cold to be high... Liu Ying put down her brush and felt sad again for spring and autumn.

Until, a short but angry figure appeared at the entrance of the hall.

"I warn you, I am now the emperor of the Han Dynasty..."

"Smelly brother, don't run away if you have the ability! Come here and let me pinch you!"

..............................

Guanzhong, Changle Palace.

The night is getting late, the lights are on, and the bulbs on the eaves and ridges are lit one by one, making the whole palace look like a palace in the sky.

On the corridor bridge, a beautiful woman dressed in white, like a delicate and fragile peony, jumped three feet high, which greatly spoiled the scenery...

Xu Negative unfolded the Flying Pigeon Passing Book in his hand, and looked at it again and again by the light, with a happy smile on his face.

small money money...

According to the legend of Feige, it was the news that Liu Ying had dealt with the old and the young, officially corrected the new calendar, promulgated the new calendar, and used the reign title of Dasheng.

And Xu negative is also happy for this.

To be precise, it is the promulgation of a new calendar.

After all, she cheered up at the beginning, and when Liu Yingmei fell asleep for the second time, she forced Liu Ying to sign the alliance under the city.

That is, the newly published calendar, 5.00% of the profits will be used as patent fees, which will belong to all the scholars of the Onmyo family who participated in the compilation...

Well, only her actually.

After all, if Zhang Liang doesn't fight with her now, then she has the highest seniority, so she can naturally give the money. Anyway, after her "begging hard" and "making many shameful actions", those yin and yang families who compiled the calendar Scholars became part of the bureaucratic group of the Han Dynasty!

From then on, they no longer have to walk around the streets to tell fortunes to others, and live a life of hungry and full meals...

Under the night, Xu Negative let herself go bouncing up and down, dancing around in circles at times, watching Liu De who was following her with a dazed expression on her face.

My mother is crazy...

This was the only thought in Liu De's young heart...

ps: Selling calendars in ancient times was very profitable.

Today's calendar has an ancient name, called Huangli, or Huangli.

After all, basically every store has them, and they have to buy new ones every year. The sales volume is hundreds of millions of copies a year, and the profits are very considerable!

For example, it is stipulated in the "Yuan Lv": Those who accuse them of privately creating calendars will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver.If there is no calendar and seal of the Taishi Academy, it will be the same as the private calendar, and the creator will be regarded as violating the system.

In the Ming Dynasty, the poor and crazy old Zhu’s family intensified. All pirates who sold the pirated version without the seal of Qin Tianjian would be beheaded, and the whistleblower would get 50 taels of silver!
It was not until the Qing Dynasty that the publication of calendars was no longer a monopoly, and private participation was allowed...

I have to say that my Daqingguo has actually improved a little bit compared to the previous dynasty to a certain extent...
