Wife Hua

Chapter 641 Proud of Father

Chapter 641 Proud of Father
The emperor has only gradually come to power the world in recent years, and the transformation of the world has made the emperor forget that he was an iron-blooded soldier in the past.

He gradually realized that in the feudal dynasty, reforming some paralysis and promoting social progress, even if he became an emperor, he couldn't do it overnight, he could do whatever he wanted, and there were some taboos that he couldn't touch even if he was an emperor.

Even the reforms he made up his mind to promote must be cautious, lest he offend the interests of too many classes and cause turmoil in the government and the public. With the establishment of a Tiangong workshop, I don’t know how many courtiers secretly muttering that the emperor is not doing his job properly. It is absurd to study technology in this group of feudal literati .

In fact, the emperor has always wanted to restore the previous contention of a hundred schools of thought, but for thousands of years he has only respected Confucianism, and the foundation of Confucianism's dominant position is even stronger than that of the emperor. The courtiers rushed off the stage.

The emperor can be replaced, but the thousand-year tradition cannot be broken.

In order to promote his correct proposition, the emperor sometimes compromised, sometimes bought some courtiers, and he had to be more lenient to the courtiers, and he could not speak and kill. This made him forget his unique general iron bones and arrogance.

Even if he can't change the world, at least he can make the soldiers on the border feel better. If he had paid more attention to the soldiers earlier, wouldn't the major general not have to stain the battlefield with blood?
As long as he thought of his daughter suffering Wan Ren Chuanxin's pain, the emperor would not be able to forgive himself, and his heart ached.

"Wuyong, go and find Duke Mu for me, and I will talk to him about how to earn more money."

The rise of every empire and nation is inseparable from the mourning and miserable fate of foreigners. The emperor himself is a national advocate. Years of iron and blood have made him almost no longer have the mind of a saint. He has already moved the mind of being intercepted and killed by pirates. After all, the threat of the western empire forced him to increase his military investment.

If you don't want to exploit the people of the empire too much, you naturally have to find a way to deal with the outside world.

Eunuch Wang put down his chopsticks, wondering how the military was involved after eating a good meal?Want to call Duke Mu?Don't forget that the Crown Princess Mu is the daughter of Duke Mu, although Duke Mu hardly recognizes the Crown Princess!
But how can blood and blood be easily let go?
Mu Qi understood the emperor's thoughts, and said: "Mu Guogong is very talented in sailing and shipbuilding. I heard that the fleet he goes to sea is all ships under his personal supervision. For your Majesty's use, the majesty of the Central Plains Empire must be spread far and wide overseas, so that the barbarians can bathe in the emperor's grace."

"I not only want to build caravans, but also warships, so that we can truly achieve Yang Weihai." The emperor coughed twice, and told Mu Qi, "You are not allowed to spread what I said today. It is related to the secrets of the empire, and you must not leak a single thing. Words, especially don't talk to Mu Hua or Yun'er."

Mu Qi was stunned for a moment, "I obey the order." Originally, he didn't intend to tell Mu Hua, but for some reason, Mu Qi still had a big opinion of Mu Guogong, and Mu Guogong had sons and daughters, so he wanted to rob him. Who can bear this?
He couldn't tell Mu Guogong's fault in front of Mu Hua, so he could only try his best to keep them from getting along, but Mu Guogong had no face and no skin and insisted on getting close to him, throwing money at the door, he was short of money?

Of course, although Mu Qi's family background is well-off, it is still a little worse than Mu Guogong.

"In the future, the threat to the empire may come from the sea. Whoever controls the ocean will control the future!"

The emperor muttered to himself, "The age of great voyages... I can no longer let the empire fall too far behind." Then he looked at Mu Qi, he should not have a big mouth like Che'er!
Mu Guogong was summoned by the emperor alone. Originally, he had contributed a lot of exclusive technology. After being encouraged by the emperor, Mu Guogong was even more willing to do his best. With his daughter supporting the family, the major general died tragically in the end. Duke Mu hoped that Mu Hua could see that he was still useful.

The emperor's pursuit of the young general made Mu Guogong completely worship at the emperor's feet. The emperor gave the young general the ultimate honor, and he was willing to donate his wealth and technology to the emperor.

"Everyone has specialties, Duke Mu, your specialties may have no weaker effect on the empire than Young General Mu!"

"Don't dare, dare not, I dare not compare with her."

Mu Guogong's eyes were red, and when he mentioned the major general, he still couldn't help being sad. Even though his daughter's soul was still there, she had already become another person, and she was no longer just his daughter. It was given to Huahua, in the eyes of the minister, she is the same as the daughter of the minister, but since the emperor intends to raise military expenses, the minister is willing to donate all the money to His Majesty."

"I don't need your family assets, and I'm not an emperor who confiscated your family."

However, after hearing how much money Mu Guogong planned to contribute, the emperor was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled and said: "Maritime trade really creates great wealth. It is said that you are as rich as an enemy. I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect..."

Mu Guogong said with a chuckle: "I used to save money mainly to wait...waiting for the major general to ask me for money, but she never said a soft word to me until she died. I have always treated the major general badly. She knows that Chen spends money on soldiers, so she will give him a high look, so that he can see her in the future, and let her understand that Chen Zong has a lot of bad things. Like all fathers, I am proud of her, and I hope she will be proud of me."

As for the money for Mu Hua, Duke Mu had reserved it long ago. Now, when expressing his loyalty to the emperor, Duke Mu will certainly not be stingy. If he wants to survive in the imperial capital, he must not offend His Majesty.

After the major general was buried, Mu Guogong obviously felt that the emperor actually disliked him a bit, and it was for the sake of the major general that he kept his title.

Mu Guogong doesn't care about the life and death of Mu Guogong's wife and his son Mu Yi, but the inheritance of the Mu family for many years cannot be completely destroyed in his hands. Fortunately, he still has a promising eldest son, Young Master Mu, and Mu With Hua's care, Young Master Mu can always support the family of the Mu family, and Duke Mu also has the face to meet his ancestors.

If you want Young Master Mu to be reused, you must first let the emperor reduce his bad feelings towards the Mu family. In Mu Guogong's view, as long as it is a problem that can be solved with money, it is not a problem. He is definitely not a miser, and he is not willing to give up money.

The emperor's eyes darkened a bit. In fact, he and Mu Guogong are connected by the same fate. His daughter's soul is still there, but he will never be able to recognize it. Sometimes he doesn't know whether Mu Hua is still his daughter.

"I will not let you down." The emperor said: "After Mu Hua and Ji Li, I will send someone to escort you out of Beijing. I have a shipyard in the south of the Yangtze River, and I will entrust the shipbuilding to you in the future. I will also take care of the maritime affairs. I will ask for your opinion, if you can let the imperial ships sail far and dominate the sea, I promise...your daughter will be proud of you."
