Please, let me be a fool

"Savage Lord, it's time to go."

At this time, Luan next to him spoke with an indifferent expression.

Although he disagreed with letting the tiger go back to the mountain, since it was His Majesty's order, he had to carry it out.

Of course, Lu An didn't have a good face towards Meng Jue, after all, they were rivals.

"The emperor of your Great Wei is not simple."

At this moment Meng Jue came back to his senses, and said softly: "Although I don't know why he let me go, but in terms of courage, I am not as good as Emperor Wei."

"Meng Jue, don't think too highly of yourself." Hearing this, Lu An sneered, "Just you? Do you want to stand shoulder to shoulder with Your Majesty?"

"Since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has been diligent in governing and caring for the people, benevolent towards the inside, reforming the law, and oppressing the gentry."

"Being strong externally, destroying Gaoyang, suppressing the grasslands, is the eternal sage."

"You are just the same as Baiyue, is there any comparison?"

Although Luan has been stationed at the border of Zhennanguan.

At the same time, he is not very concerned about the political affairs of the court.

But he can still clearly feel the changes in the country during this period of time.

For example, the reforms implemented throughout the country have achieved great results in the southern border. The lives of the people are better than before, and they don't have to pay those exorbitant taxes.

Not to mention the destruction of the Yang Kingdom, and the capture of the Nine Khans of the Grassland some time ago, what kind of victory is this?
Fighting on the grassland has always been a headache for the Central Plains dynasty, sometimes in order to maintain the stability of the frontier.

The Central Plains even had to pay tribute to the grasslands to ensure safety.

However, after His Majesty ascended the throne, the situation was completely reversed.

How many emperors in ancient and modern times can do it?

indeed.

Lu An admitted that the Lord of Baiyue, Meng Jue, was a character, but he was not even a star behind His Majesty, so at this moment, there was still contempt in his eyes.

"You!" Meng Jue wanted to speak immediately when he heard this, but felt that what the other party said was completely correct.

So I didn't continue talking, just turned around and followed the other party.

He was going to bring his own people back to Baiyue.

"His Majesty."

"Why did you let Meng Jue go? This is a hard-won victory."

In the palace, Song Gongwen still couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't help but speak.

Because he believed that letting go of the Lord of Baiyue would not do any good to Wei and the Southern Expedition.

Lin Yuansong next to him did not speak, but obviously, the meaning was the same as that of the head of state, because he was the minister of the Ministry of War, so he knew better how much benefit the court could bring to the court by capturing Meng Jue alive
"Of course I know what the head of the state said, but now that he's been released, it's useless to say more."

Regarding this, Wei Yunyi didn't want to explain too much, so he changed the topic and continued: "By the way, if anything happened in the court recently, tell me to hear."

He knew very well that even if he made excuses, he might not be able to evade the two people in front of him, so it was better not to say anything.

Of course, Wei Yunyi is also very concerned about the affairs of the court, because he has been staying in the palace for a while, not caring about anything, and now he just has the opportunity, so he can ask about it.

After all, after this time, he thought about continuing to have fun, and he didn't know how long it would be until he saw these two next time.

As for the battle of the Southern Expedition, Wei Yunyi didn't want to bother with it.

He was already prepared in his heart.

After letting go of the barbarian master, it doesn't matter even if the opponent escapes directly into the deep mountains and cannot come out.

I also happen to have an excuse to stay in Zhennanguan for a longer period of time and consume more money from the national treasury.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it just so happens that I have something to report." Song Gongwen could see that his Majesty obviously didn't want to talk about it, so he immediately stopped entanglement, saving himself the trouble, and said immediately.

"The Taifu sent a message saying that the taxation of the reform has reached the final stage. After a while, the court should have another large amount of income."

"There is also Zhang Yingxing, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, who said that the initial project of the Grand Canal has been completed. At the same time, Wei Zhidao has also built a section. The two major projects have reached the official stage, but the follow-up will cost more money."

"So I want to ask the imperial court to approve an extra sum of money, so that the orderly progress of the project will not be delayed."

Having said that, Song Gongwen sighed.

I feel that Brother Ying Xing is a little too anxious in this regard.

Although a large amount of money will enter the national treasury through the tax reform, isn’t the money still there?
In addition, because of the Southern Expedition, the accounts of the household department have also become a little tense, and it is not the time to ask for money at all.

Anyway, the preliminary stages of both projects have already been completed, so why not wait?
As for Wei Yunyi, when he knew that there was money to come in, he was completely speechless. He couldn't figure it out. Didn't the Tai Tuo have great opinions on the reform?Why are you so passionate about it recently?
However, when he heard that the two projects were in urgent need of money, he couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he said directly: "Approved, definitely approved, the two projects will benefit the present and benefit the future, and they are for the benefit of my descendants of the Great Wei. Tell Zhang Yingxing how much money he needs, just directly minister to the imperial court, I will definitely agree!"

To be honest, Wei Yunyi pointed out that these two projects consume national power and curb luck, and they must not stop.

Now that the initial stage is completed, I think the next step is the big one.

So money has to be given.

"This is His Majesty!"

Song Gongwen didn't say anything, His Majesty has already spoken, and these two projects have already started, so it is impossible to stop because the money is not in place for the time being, right?When the time comes to restart work, there will definitely be a lot of trouble.

Fortunately, he knew that it would be no problem for his subordinates to think of a way, especially since the capital still had a teacher to control it.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I also have something to announce here."

Soon, Lin Yuansong spoke again, and said, "Your Majesty, it was the old Hou Ye who sent the message, saying that they had reached an agreement with the Nine Departments of the Grassland. They withdrew their troops and promised that they would not offend my Grand Master again within the next ten years." Wei Bianjiang."

"However, Lord Hou said that he still needs to stay in the northern border for some time to rearrange the defenses of various ministries. I hope His Majesty will act accordingly."

Although Jiubu Khan vowed not to violate the Wei frontier within ten years.

But in the grassland, there are eighteen tribes, and those tribes will not be idle, especially at this time, and the previous war must have put a lot of pressure on the other nine tribes.

What if at this time, they choose to unite to go south again?Therefore, the defense of the northern border must be done well.

"It should be, it's the old master's request."

Wei Yunyi was tired again.

Sure enough, as long as you ask the court, nothing good will happen.

Bad things happen one after another.

It's either tax revenue to the treasury, or various news after the victory of the Battle of the Grassland.

No offense within ten years?He didn't even know if he could wait until then.Fortunately, there are other tribes in the prairie. I hope those prairie people will work hard and not let me down.

As for Lord Hou staying in the northern border for a period of time, let him go. This will allow the court to spend an extra amount of money.

Probably not very useful, but better than nothing.

So can agree.

Besides, he hopes that there will be pressure in the northern border, but he doesn't want the people there to be harmed by the flames of war. It is also good that Marquis Shenwu can make more preparations.

"Is there anything else?" Shaking his head, Wei Yunyi stopped thinking about it, and continued to practice by himself, thinking that it was okay.

For the rest, ignore it and let your subordinates do it.

He didn't believe that Meng Jue would do it again after suffering a loss, otherwise he would be really stupid.

"Your Majesty." Lin Yuansong took a step forward, seeming to see that Wei Yunyi wanted to let a few people leave, and immediately said: "It is the matter of Tiandu Kingdom. King Ah Li has stepped down and left the capital of Tiandu. With the support of the major forces in Tiandu, Duke Ahqin became the new ruler of Tiandu, and the first thing he did when he took office was to look for King Ahli, saying that he wanted to raise him in the capital."

"The second thing is that I will personally go to visit my Great Wei in the near future, hoping to be received by Your Majesty."

interview?

As soon as these two words came out.

Song Gongwen next to him was stunned.

It stands to reason that Lord Tiandu has the same status as the emperor of Wei. Even if they want to meet, they usually use words such as meeting alliance, but the other party uses the word "meeting the second son".

It is obvious that the newly appointed Lord Tiandu has placed himself in an extremely low position, which is unbelievable.

But if you look carefully, it seems to be reasonable, after all, the other party just took this position.

Although there is support from various major forces, in fact, the situation in Tiandu's country must also be undercurrent.

To secure this position, in addition to suppressing and balancing the noble forces under his command.

most important.

It is to build a good relationship with Dawei.

After all, the current Great Wei is the most powerful country on the Eastern Continent.

Even if Duke Ahqin couldn't balance the domestic situation, it would undoubtedly be much better with the help of Wei.

Especially during this period of time, Tiandu Kingdom has just experienced various wars, so it is even more necessary, so Duke Ahqin's attitude is so low, which is why.

Of course, Song Gongwen felt that Chen Xuance was probably involved in this.

He is indeed a rare talent.

Thinking of this, he was very happy.

But Wei Yunyi was unhappy, even a little uncomfortable.

He originally thought that Tiandu Kingdom could pose a threat to Wei, after all, it has always been like this, but he didn't expect that there would be turmoil there, and now, it can be regarded as a change of dynasty, and the Lord Tiandu will come to see him.

Wei Yunyi really didn't know what to say, because he knew very well that the relationship between Tiandu Kingdom and Great Wei would not be hostile.

I am afraid that it will be restored to the time when Emperor Taizu Gao was.
Difficult.

The more Wei Yunyi thought about it, the more helpless he became, because he didn't know how this kind of thing happened, and what did Chen Xuance do when he went to Tiandu?Why is there no movement?

Forget it, at this point in the matter, it seems useless to think about it.

After thinking for a while, Wei Yunyi finally cleared his throat, and said: "You guys can handle this matter. Now the matter of the Southern Expedition is not over yet, and my main energy should be put here. As for saving the monarch that day, let's let Don't come, if you have to come, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you."

As soon as these words came out, Song Gongwen and Lin Yuansong were shocked.

Lord Tiandu went to the capital in person, which can be said to have shown great sincerity.

Anyone could see that the other party wanted to show his favor to Wei, but His Majesty said he couldn't see it.
So definitely not.

If it caused the dissatisfaction of the new Tiandu Monarch, it would cause a lot of trouble.

Immediately, the two were ready to speak.

"Okay, that's what I mean. This imperial conquest is not over yet, so it's impossible to let my squadron return to Beijing, right? I promised the people of Great Wei before the expedition. This time, we must solve the troubles in the southern border. It is impossible. Let me be unbelievable?"

"As for the matter of meeting Lord Tiandu, let the Taifu handle it. He is my teacher and chief assistant, so he has the qualifications."

"Okay, let's go down if there is nothing to do."

It's okay for the Tai Tuo to meet the Lord Tiandu.

But the other party represents, after all, the entire Tiandu Kingdom.

When the two heard the words, they hesitated, but they were also very clear that the things His Majesty had already decided would not be changed no matter what.

Immediately, they bowed slightly and said, "It's Your Majesty, I will take my leave."

After speaking, Song Gongwen and Lin Yuansong left the palace.

Although both of them are not in the capital.

But each of them is in charge of one department, and they are cabinet scholars, so they still have to deal with court affairs.

And in the palace.

Wei Yunyi was not in a hurry to practice, and turned his head to Wang Jin and said directly: "By the way, I asked you to send a letter to the national teacher about refining new elixir. How is it going?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, there is news." Wang Jin bowed slightly, took out a note from his sleeve, and said: "The national teacher said that he has found a better medicine, but it is very difficult to refine it. It is difficult, after all, it is a pill that is only useful for the fourth grade."

"However, the national teacher told His Majesty not to worry. The national teacher has already gone to Longhu Mountain to study the book, saying that he is going to invite the old heavenly master to come out of the mountain."

"Because the national teacher has recently received news about the old heavenly master, and hopes to help His Majesty."

Longhushan old heavenly master?

Hearing this, Wei Yunyi was a little surprised.

Listening to the reports of those two ministers, there is finally good news now.

Although the little celestial master Longyu's attainments in alchemy are also very good, but it must be no match for the old celestial master.

And there is a more important paragraph, that is, this old celestial master seems to know a lot of things, especially the so-called Bai Yujing.

He knew that Bai Yujing was the representative of immortals in the world.

pity.

Even if he was himself, he couldn't figure out what kind of existence Bai Yujing was, otherwise, Wei Yunyi wouldn't be helpless against the immortal.

If you can find the old heavenly master, I hope to get news about this.
"Okay, I understand, you go down too."

Didn't think much about it.

Wei Yunyi asked the other party to go out, while he was preparing to start practicing.

Tomorrow night is the system settlement day, and he also thought, take advantage of this time to increase as much as possible, what if the Hunjun value calculated by then can bring him many benefits?
But in fact, Wei Yunyi also knew very well in his heart that if there were no accidents in the system settlement this time, his luck might also increase.

This is not because he is pessimistic, but because of the political reform, the Battle of the Grassland, the Battle of Tiandu, and the Southern Expedition.

Each one is too dependent on the growth of the national fortune.

Now Wei Yunyi only hopes.

This time the luck rises, it can be a little less.
