Chapter 1490 She's Good

Yang Xiuning sized him up slightly, then looked away.

Yang Xiuning could see what kind of mood he was in. He didn't have any words of comfort, but he said something ambiguous.

"He is not Emperor Wu after all."

But Jing Ninghou understood.

In those days, Emperor Wu was extremely brave and expanded the territory, which more than doubled the territory of Apocalypse.

Its prestige spread far and wide, making it easy for neighboring countries not to dare to invade, and even small countries bowed their heads and proclaimed their vassals to congratulate them every year.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the emperor on horseback.

But when Emperor Wu reached his later years, he regretted the reckless expansion of territory.

Years of wars have caused the people to suffer terribly. Young laborers were conscripted into the army, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled behind, and behind every victory, countless orphans and widows were added.

There is a shortage of labor force, fertile land is abandoned, and the national treasury is empty. Although there are tributes from various countries, it is still unable to make ends meet.

It is true that the name has been fulfilled, the prosperity of the people is suffering, and the death of the people is suffering.

Emperor Wu had remorse in his later years, so he wasted some thought when choosing an heir.

Although the emperors of all dynasties in Apocalypse needed brothers to help each other, since King Xiaoyao abandoned his throne and traveled far away, the emperors of Apocalypse did not take this rule very seriously.

The reason why Emperor Wu chose Jinshang was because he had a pure heart and was still young. At least before he became an adult, the people could rest and recuperate.

And the meaning of Yang Xiuning's words is also very clear, the emperor is not the first emperor, he does not need a general who can expand the territory.

Judging from the current situation, the most important thing is to settle down first. Therefore, he will not hand over the general power to the generals like the former emperor, but will take it back for his own use.

If the emperor does not have military power, he can only be led by the nose, and at the same time, it also encourages some people to have some thoughts that should not be moved.

This is also the reason why Yang Xiuning wanted him to be more thorough.

Power is a good thing for anyone, but if some good things don't belong to you, or once belonged to you, but the person who gave you power wants to take it back, you should know how to let go.

In this regard, the little daughter-in-law is much more transparent than everyone else.

Thinking about it, Yang Xiuning subconsciously formed a beautiful smile.

Jing Ninghou was silent for a long time, just when Yang Xiuning thought that his trip was worthless, Jing Ninghou suddenly nodded.

"I understand!"

Seeing him like this, Yang Xiuning knew that he understood what a courtier should do, rather than that he really understood that he should let go.

But no matter what, it is a good thing for the emperor and Jingning Houfu that he is willing to back down.

Yang Xiuning didn't say anything, just nodded to show that he understood.

After finishing the business, Jingning didn't frown as before, but looked at Yang Xiuning with twinkling eyes, and asked with some concern.

"I heard you got married?"

Asking these words, Jing Ninghou felt full of bitterness again.

Marriage is supposed to be the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, but they are not even qualified to attend the wedding.

Speaking of the little daughter-in-law, Yang Xiuning's smile grew wider, and he didn't look at Jing Ninghou as alienated as before, but said kindly, "She's fine!"

Seeing the gleam in Yang Xiuning's eyes, Hou Jingning also knew that he really liked that daughter-in-law.

The son of the Xiao family is the best at this point, he is absolutely loyal to his wife.

As for Yang Xiuning's words, Jing Ninghou also deeply agreed, "Du Fengtian and her daughter are naturally not bad."
