Humane Yongchang

Chapter 411 Plan ahead
Chen Sheng opened his eyes, and the familiar beams of the bedroom came into his eyes. He was absent-minded for a few seconds, and the content of the conversation with Zhuangzi and Confucius in his dream came to his mind.

In the end, Confucius did not respond to his proposal. He only accepted the essence of Confucianism through Zhuang Zhou's mouth, leaving a sentence "this is a big matter, you must think twice before acting".

Without the essence of Confucianism to blind the sky, Zhuang Zhou didn't dare to talk to him about important topics, and after rubbing a few red robes with him, he reluctantly left his dreamland...

After Chen Shengzai carefully recalled the conversations with Zhuang Zhou and Confucius, his heart became heavier.

It's not like he didn't suspect that these giants are planning some earth-shattering and weeping ghosts and gods together!

But his intuition told him that this possibility...is unlikely!
Practitioners from hundreds of schools, fellow practitioners from hundreds of schools, have cultivated to the level of Confucius, Guiguzi, Zhuangzi, and Sun Tzu, just like fighting for hegemony to the current level where he and Yingzheng, Liu Bang, and Zhang Liang are now.

Everyone has their own ideas, and everyone has their own interest groups. Without the persecution of higher-level crises such as subjugation and genocide, there is absolutely no possibility of shaking hands and making peace and establishing the country peacefully.

To be precise, getting to their current position and taking a step back is a hundred times, a thousand times more difficult than taking a step forward!
Furthermore, tens of millions of people pushed them in.

Take a step back, they are going against tens of millions of people.

If there is a slight mistake, it will end in death and family extermination!
The same is true for Confucius, Guiguzi, Zhuangzi, and Sunzi.

But even if the resistance is so great, these giants are still working tirelessly for it, respecting the sage like Confucius, and are willing to bow their heads...

'The problem in Kyushu is bigger than I expected. '

Chen Sheng sighed softly, bowed his head and carefully removed the jade arms around his chest, ready to get up.

However, no matter how lightly his movements were, he still woke up the sleeping beauty beside him.

The jade arms tightened around his neck, and a hazy and gentle voice rang in his ears: "Aren't you not going to court today?"

Chen Sheng turned his face and gnawed on her cheek, and said softly: "I just thought of some things at the moment, and I have to go to the front hall to deal with them."

Zhao Qing propped up his upper body lazily, and couldn't even open his eyes: "That concubine is serving the king to change clothes."

Chen Sheng smiled and gently pushed her back on the warm bed: "What are you waiting for? It's not that I don't have long hands. It's still early. Sister, you can sleep for a while."

Zhao Qing closed her eyes and struggled to get up: "No, I don't want to be a lazy wife..."

Chen Sheng kissed her lightly again, and softly comforted her: "You are pregnant, you must stay in bed more...be obedient!"

"Ok."

Zhao Qing stopped struggling, and wrapped his arms around Chen Sheng, pulled his face in front of him and kissed him: "The concubine will make chicken noodles and send them to the king later..."

Chen Sheng caressed her cheek and said angrily, "I forgot what I told you earlier? Now that you are pregnant, you can't get cold water or gravity!"

Zhao Qing muttered in a daze: "How can I be so delicate, when my mother was pregnant with me, she was about to give birth, and she was still carrying firewood..."

Chen Sheng raised his eyebrows, and said fiercely: "I say yes, so don't be stubborn!"

"Okay ok ok!"

Zhao Qing angrily turned his back to him, and said in a low voice, "This is not allowed, and that is not allowed, so you can lock yourself up in this nest as a pig!"

Chen Sheng couldn't help smiling, got up and carefully tucked in the quilt for her... After this silly woman became pregnant, she became more and more clingy.

He put on his robe, greeted Zhao Qing, and walked out of the bedroom.

Pushing open the door, only to see that the outside of the palace is already a vast expanse of whiteness... Another year of cold winter.

A group of maidservants who had been standing outside the palace earlier saw him coming out, and they all raised their hands together and said: "My servant pays homage to the king, long live my king, long live, long live."

Chen Sheng nodded: "You take good care of Young Master, don't let her get close to the dining room or laundry room, after the second princess finishes her morning exercises, please invite Second Princess to come and accompany Young Master."

"only!"

Chen Sheng took big steps and walked towards the front hall.

As soon as he passed the gate of the harem, a large number of royal guards and visitors followed his footsteps.

Chen Sheng: "Please invite Qing Ke, the chief minister of the House of Internal Affairs, and Fan Zeng, the chief minister, to come to the side hall to see you."

"only!"

……

Two quarters of an hour later, Jing Ke, dressed in a black official robe and a haechi crown on his head, hurried into the side hall, squeezed his palms and bowed to the end: "Your servant, Qing Ke, pay homage to Your Majesty, long live my king, long live, long live."

Chen Sheng, who was peeling eggshells at the round table, saw him and said with a warm smile, "Come and sit."

Jing Ke bowed his hands again: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the ceremony, he bowed and sat opposite to Chen Sheng. Immediately, some palace servants brought dishes and breakfast food and put them in front of him.

Chen Sheng handed Bai Shengsheng's boiled eggs to him, and said with a smile: "Recently, I have been involved in many things, and I haven't had time to ask you about killing demons for a long time. How are you doing recently? Is there anything you need support from the royal court? "

Jing Ke stood up slightly, took the boiled egg with both hands, and said with a forced smile: "It's because the minister failed to report the affairs of the department to the king in time, please forgive me."

Since moving the capital, Chen Sheng's majesty has become more and more grand, even if he is not angry, he still gives people a feeling of unfathomable and dark tide.

Even Fan Zeng, Li Si, and Jing Ke, the old ministers who met Chen Sheng in the twilight days, now when they meet Chen Sheng in private, they can no longer be as casual as they used to be.

But they are still very clear in their hearts, Chen Sheng did not deliberately put pressure on them...

"Relax, don't be so restrained."

Chen Sheng knew that his words could not really make Jing Ke relax, but he still couldn't help but comforted him with gentle words: "All of you put me here and hold it carefully, and I won't dare to chat with you in the future."

Jing Ke's heart relaxed slightly, his face finally became less stiff, but he still held the boiled egg in both hands, as if he didn't know what to say, he just smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty is so powerful in Kyushu and Beneficial to the whole world, who dares to stand in front of His Majesty?" presumptuous!"

Chen Sheng let out a "tsk", and said with a sense of loss: "If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have invited you to join the big man. At least I can still have a drinking buddy, right?"

Jing Ke resisted the urge to roll his eyes, but when he opened his mouth, there was still some resentment in his tone: "Your Majesty, don't mention alcohol anymore, you have drunk your servants so many times, but you don't drink at all, what kind of shit is that? Drinking buddies?"

"Hahaha……"

Chen Sheng laughed and patted the table and said: "Yes, yes, that's the smell. This is the righteous and indomitable Jing Ke I know!"

Jing Ke finally lowered his head and took a bite of the boiled egg, ignoring Chen Sheng, anyway, you are the king, you have the final say.

Chen Sheng also picked up a boiled egg again, and while peeling the shell, he asked: "Let's get back to the topic, tell me about your current situation of killing demons."

Jing Ke chewed harder, swallowed the egg in his mouth, and then said: "My lord, I have completed the establishment of the four divisions, 36 yamen, and twelve rangers before March. Under the supervision of my demon boss, an average of more than 150 demon-infested incidents are dealt with every month, and the number of vicious incidents of demons slaughtering villages and villages and endangering counties and counties is decreasing month by month, and the recovery of demons has generally been effectively curbed!"

Chen Sheng ate half of a boiled egg in one bite, and nodded while eating: "Very good, you did not disappoint me. At the end of this year, your salary will be increased by [-]% for the next year!"

Jing Ke was overjoyed, and quickly raised his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

If you are not in charge of your family, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are.

As the guardian envoy of the demon slayer, he may not care about money and property, but that doesn't mean that the demon slayer and Tiqi under him can also not care.

What's more, it's not just money and property, it also represents Wang Ting's recognition and reward for their work!
People always want something, either for profit or fame...

Chen Sheng waved his hands without raising his head, and continued to ask: "Are there any new developments regarding the infiltration of monster races from outside the territory?"

Jing Ke pondered for a while to speak, and then replied: "My lord, since the battle of the East China Sea at the beginning of the year, the whereabouts of the foreign monsters in Wuhan territory have become more and more secretive, and the connection with the local monsters is also sporadic. Judging from the official documents sent back by various departments, there have been few signs of foreign demon clan activities in Wuhan, and there is no trend of connecting them, and the department can only find one case and crack down on one case!"

Chen Sheng looked up at him: "Can you control it?"

Jing Ke nodded in confusion and said, "It's still under the control of my subordinates."

Chen Sheng picked up the soybean milk in front of him noncommittally, sipped it in small sips, and asked, "Tell me about the situation of your top fighters in the Demon Slayer Division."

Jing Ke quickly replied: "My lord, at present, there are 34 demon slayers in the Xiantian realm, 180 nine demon slayers in the Houtian realm, and 680 nine Tiqi in the Qihai realm in my demon slaying department. Many masters have stagnated in their own realm for several years before entering the Demon Slaying Demon Envoy, and they have made no progress. Once they entered the Demon Slaying Demon Division, their realm began to advance by leaps and bounds. Capital, recruited a lot of good hands!"

After Chen Sheng pondered for a while, he smiled lightly and said, "This matter is not difficult to understand. The world is like water, black and white are indistinguishable, and good and evil are mixed up. People will inevitably be confused in it."

"The job of slaying demons is to make meritorious deeds, protect the family and protect the people. It is hard to find a job in the world that is more clear-cut than the job of slaying demons, where good and evil are opposed. With an upright heart and mind, practice is self-doubtful."

"What's more, the Demon Killing Division is the mainstay of our Han Dynasty, and he should be under the shadow of our Han Dynasty's destiny!"

"Besides, beheading monsters and protecting the people is already a meritorious service to the Nine Provinces, and you can gain humanity merits!"

"It's a strange thing if all forces work together, and the realm doesn't advance by leaps and bounds!"

Chen Sheng's current level of martial arts has already surpassed his level by a lot. In addition, he is in the center of the general trend of Kyushu, and the mountains, rivers and society are all under his control. Practitioners at Jing Ke's level should be condescending and have a clear view!
When Jing Ke heard the words, his heart was shocked, and he said "No wonder" three times in a row, and the belief in his heart became more and more firm!
"It's just that the top-notch strength of the demon slayer is still far behind!"

Chen Sheng put down the soybean milk, looked at Jing Ke seriously and said: "As the saying goes, when the sky falls, there is a tall man who will hold it up. Now I am a tall man in Kyushu. If the sky falls, it will fall on my shoulders." !"

Jing Ke bowed his hands and said, "Please show me, Your Majesty!"

Chen Sheng said unhurriedly: "In the past, our big man was a separatist party. It is not easy to manage our own three acres of land. Naturally, we don't need to worry about other people's minds. But look, these so-called princes and heroes in Kyushu now , which one is there? If there is a disaster in Kyushu, which one can take care of it?"

"The sages said: Those who don't plan for the world can't plan for a moment, and those who don't plan for the overall situation can't plan for a region!"

"We big men can no longer just stare at our own three-acre land, passively wait for foreigners to come in, and then start a war with us in our home. This is our own home after all. No matter what pots and pans are broken , in the end we have to clean up the mess ourselves.”

"So, it's time to plan ahead and focus on the entire Kyushu!"

"For example, what is the situation of the witch gods and ancestor spirits that the Baiyue people believe in?"

"Another example is the dog army in the northern border and the monster race outside the territory. What's the situation?"

"We always have to know what to do in order to formulate targeted countermeasures!"

When Jing Ke heard the words, the first reaction in his heart was that he had no way to start, it was as difficult as reaching the sky, and hesitation was unconsciously shown on his face.

Seeing this, Chen Sheng said with a smile: "It's not that you can make achievements in two months and three months, it can take a year and a half, or it can take three to five years, but you have to do it to get something, right?"

"Didn't I let you secretly gather a group of local monsters who can listen to people's words? After raising them for so long, it's time to take them out for a walk, right?"

Jing Ke's eyes lit up, and he lost his voice and said, "Your Majesty's intention is to send those little monsters to the northern and southern borders?"

Chen Sheng nodded with a smile, and was about to elaborate, when he saw Fan Zeng coming in from the visitor, he changed his mind and said: "After you go down, think about it carefully, draw up an effective plan and submit it to me, I think Let’s talk about it later.”

Jing Ke also saw Fan Zeng coming in, got up and said, "Then I will take my leave first."

Chen Sheng waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, if you don't understand anything, you can discuss it with Chen Feng and Li Zhong."

Jing Ke: "Wei!"

Jing Ke exited the side hall, Fan Zeng stepped forward and said, "Fan Zeng, old minister, I pay my respects to your majesty, long live my king, long live, long live."

Chen Sheng stretched out his hand and made a "please" gesture: "Fan Gong, please sit down."

Fan Zeng: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Fan Zeng took his seat, and immediately some palace servants stepped forward to remove Jing Ke's breakfast and served another breakfast.

Chen Sheng stretched out his hand and said, "Grand Fan, give it a try and see if it suits your taste."

Fan Zeng looked at it, and sincerely raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty is the honor of Jiuliu, and the board and lodging are so simple. Even the breakfast at the old minister's house is richer than the King's. The old minister is ashamed of the King."

Chen Sheng laughed and waved his hands and said: "It's just breakfast, how can there be so many sayings, you, you, don't learn if you are good, just learn from Li Gong and flatter you!"

Fan Zeng Fuxu smiled without arguing.

Chen Sheng: "I invite you here so early to discuss the year name!"

Fan Zeng was overjoyed: "Your Majesty has finally decided to promulgate the year name?"

Chen Sheng nodded: "I didn't want to be so anxious. After all, I am neither the Son of Heaven nor the Emperor of Human Beings. If I don't promulgate the reign title, my name will always be wrong and my words will not go well. It will also be very detrimental to my practice of kingship..."
