I'm really not King Jing of Zhongshan

Chapter 307 Prince Sheng's Thoughts

"Ma Zheng..."

"Money System..."

"food······"

···
"Whoo~~~"

"It's all lifeblood~~~~~~"

Returning to Taiwo in the middle of the night, sitting alone in front of the high table in Jiaguan, writing the numbers on the bamboo slips in front of him like this;
Standing up straight again and looking at the bamboo slips, Liu Sheng let out a long and leisurely sigh, then leaned back, put his hands behind his head, and completely spread out on the reclining chair.

Liu Sheng, need to think.

In the past period of time, Liu Sheng really didn't have time to think alone.

But today, Liu Sheng needs to think carefully: these things in front of him-every one of these things are related to the safety of the Han family, and even the survival of the Han family. How should he face it, and even how to deal with it... ···
"Food is the root of farmers and people, and it is also related to the source of military rations and agricultural taxes;"

"The money system is related to industry and commerce, and it is related to the speed of our Han family's prosperity."

"And Ma Zheng..."

"Ugh······"

"Ma Zheng, it really costs money~"

Shaking his head and sighing again, Liu Sheng turned over in boredom, lay down on his side on the recliner, and propped his head up with one hand;

Looking at the bright moon outside the window, Liu Sheng's already sad face suddenly showed a touch of sadness.

For the current situation of the Han family, Liu Sheng's original cognition was limited to "already in the process of slow development", and all he could do was to accelerate this trend and step on the gas pedal.

For example, in the past, the wealth of the Han family's mansion and treasury basically grew at a rate of 30 to [-] million yuan per year;

And what Liu Sheng needs to do is just to increase this number and speed up this rate, so as to complete the accumulation as soon as possible, and advance the inevitable decisive battle between Han and Hungary.

But recently, with the Huns going south to invade the frontier, destroying Yanmen Garden, and the arrival of the Xiongnu mission, after putting the matter of "Ma Zheng" in front of Liu Sheng, Liu Sheng finally realized that the decisive battle between the Han and the Huns was not just about It's as simple as 'the Han family has saved enough money and food, they can start fighting directly'.

"Buying it with money will definitely not work."

"—A mare can cost dozens of gold, and a stallion can cost hundreds, or even hundreds of catties;"

"It really depends on buying, if you want to raise tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of war horses needed for a decisive battle..."

"Tut tut;"

···
"On Lu's side, you can get in touch."

"Is it just this chip..."

"Um······"

Thinking like this, Liu Sheng slowly closed his eyes, not sure if he was thinking, or he closed his eyes and fell asleep tiredly.

It was at this moment that Xia Que, who had been standing on one side like an old pine tree, never saying a word, even motionless, finally stepped forward lightly.

Feeling his upper body being pressed down by a faint weight, Liu Sheng only subconsciously opened his eyes;
Lifting his head, seeing that it was Xia Que, Liu Sheng closed his eyes again, and at the same time let out a long sigh.

"Ah~"

···
"Tell me;"

"Recently, what happened in the palace?"

"What's going on in the streets and alleys of Chang'an?"

Speaking with tiredness, Liu Sheng did not forget to adjust his figure a little and chose a more comfortable posture;
And after Liu Sheng's question, Xia Que, who wanted to 'cover the blanket without anyone noticing', then walked away quietly, stopped like a robot that had been instructed.

Hastily bowed his hands to Liu Sheng, and used the short interval of saluting to run his brain rapidly;
After thinking about all the words she wanted to say, Xia Que straightened her deeply bent back.

"In the palace, nothing major happened;"

"If you want to talk about something, your Highness needs to know: the day before yesterday when I went to Linyuan, when the slave followed King Jiaoxi to the palace, the King of Jiaoxi used the Tian family to replace Qi, the former Tian Qi royal family, and the system of Lingyi. ask."

"It's just that the old slave is vulgar, and he has never studied the classics of the sages;"

"The question asked by King Yu Jiaoxi, this old slave, has not been able to answer."

"Afterwards, the King of Jiaoxi privately asked the old slave to report to His Highness: Tomorrow, the King of Jiaoxi wants to enter Weiyang and stay in Shiqu Pavilion for a few days..."

Hearing this, Liu Sheng, who was still lying on the recliner with his eyes closed, nodded slightly without changing his face.

The younger brother Liu Zhi's reaction was not beyond Liu Sheng's expectations.

——Shiqu Pavilion is the royal archives of the Han family;

In addition to the daily records that no one, including Tianzi Qi, can read, there are still a large number of fragments in Shiqu Pavilion.

These fragments were moved out of Qin Shiqu Pavilion by Prime Minister Xiao He when Taizu Gao Emperor Liu Bang "entered Xianyang first" decades ago.

Later, when Xiang Yu's army entered the customs, he held a Hongmen banquet to invite Peigong, and then burned Xianyang and Afang;
The ancient books and historical books of various countries that Prime Minister Xiao had not had time to rescue from the Shiqu Pavilion of Xianyang Palace were also burned in the raging fire that was lit by the overlord Xiang Yu himself and lasted for three months.

Later, Taizu ascended the throne and the Han Dynasty prospered, and the capital was Chang'an;

Those complete books that were salvaged earlier, as well as the fragments left in the wreckage after the Qin Xianyang Palace was burned down, were all thrown by Xiao Xiangguo in the Han Shiqu Pavilion in Chang'an Weiyang Palace.

After that, Xiao He once tried to classify the pile of books and tomes as high as the hill;
But after spending ten years of hard work without even completing [-]% of the work, Xiao Xiangguo finally chose to give up.

But now, Jiaoxi King Liu Zhi, who lives in the womb of the crown prince, and the chief eunuch entrusted to the womb of the crown prince, Ling Xiaque, a member of CRRC, asked Liu Sheng to "go to Shiqu Pavilion", the purpose of which is self-evident up.

"You go with King Jiaoxi yourself."

"When we got there, he said that King Jiaoxi only went to Shiqu Pavilion after getting my permission."

"Afterwards, except for the daily records of the past emperors, the King of Jiaoxi will not stop him from seeing anything he wants to see."

"——After all, in the future, he will also be the clan and princes of my Han family;"

"Read more books, there is no harm in the end..."

Liu Sheng said indifferently, Xia Que quickly bowed again, expressing his acceptance.

After Liu Sheng raised his hand again, Xia Que, who received the signal, continued to say: "Except for King Jiaoxi, there is nothing else going on in the crown prince's womb."

"In Weiyang Palace..."

Swish!
The moment the word 'Weiyang' rang in his ears, Liu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes!

His gaze was cold for a few breaths, and Liu Sheng slowly turned his head to the side again, staring straight into the depths of Xia Que's gaze.

"What can be said and what cannot be said;"

"Who can inquire and who cannot;"

"Eunuch Ling, should have taught you?"

···
"Go ahead."

"Dare to mention the word Xuanshi, and tomorrow, I will go to find the eunuch's order."

As soon as Liu Sheng said this, Xia Que lowered her head tremblingly, and her body trembled slightly.

Liu Sheng didn't even need to speak - just that cold gaze was enough to make Xia Que fall into the abyss;

Even if he intended to say some taboo words, at this moment, he would definitely swallow them whole.

Fortunately, Xia Que is not a stupid person.

It is impossible for a stupid person to survive in the deep palace for many years, let alone gain the respect of the eunuch...

"Your highness, your highness taught me that even if I die, I dare not forget..."

"When I mention Weiyang Palace, what I want to talk about is also about Qilan Palace and Phoenix Palace..."

With Xia Que's words, Liu Sheng's expression turned slightly warmer;
He looked at Xia Que half suspiciously, half warningly, and then took his eyes away from Xia Que.

He turned his head, looked at the desk in front of him, and simply stopped closing his eyes.

"Go ahead."

"Those two, what kind of trouble do you want to make?"

As soon as this remark came out, Xia Que secretly heaved a sigh of relief;
After calming down a bit, he hurriedly took a step forward, lowered his voice, and bent his already bent back again.

"On the other side of the Phoenix Hall, Madam Xiao Wang, seems a little frightened."

"A few days ago, His Majesty visited the Phoenix Hall, and there were rumors in the palace that Mrs. Xiao Wang seemed to be crying to His Majesty, saying that during the night shift, she could always hear women crying."

"Hearing this, His Majesty felt very unhappy, and did not stay in the Phoenix Palace that night."

"The next day, the queen seemed to summon Mrs. Xiao Wang, and she comforted her with gentle words."

"It's just that there are still rumors in the palace: Mrs. Wang, I'm afraid she has lost her holy family..."

Following Xia Que's weak but incomparably clear voice, Liu Sheng, who was sitting in front of the desk, had already raised his hand involuntarily;
Bringing the fingers of his right hand to his mouth, instinctively biting his nails lightly, Liu Sheng's tired face was full of seriousness at the moment.

"Little Mrs. Wang..."

"Holy Family..."

"tsk;"

"I'm so old, I don't know how to take care of myself..."

···
"Mother, it's rare..."

"When it's Mrs. Bo from Beigong, at the mother's side...?"

Before the words finished, Xia Que nodded slightly;
Seeing this, Liu Sheng pondered for a moment, then waved his hand noncommittally.

"At the Phoenix Palace, keep an eye on it;"

"—But don't carry the eunuch's order."

"It's best to find an opportunity to inform eunuch Ling tactfully."

"Anything that involves Weiyang Palace, no matter how big or small, it's best for the eunuch to know clearly."

"After all, the Crown Prince's Palace and Weiyang Palace—my father and I, in addition to father and son, will eventually have an extra level of monarch and minister..."

···
"I don't need to explain these things too clearly. If there is something you don't understand, just ask eunuch Ling directly."

"On weekdays, walk around more with eunuch Ling."

"But walking is walking, try not to inquire about things from eunuch orders;"

"When you see the eunuch Ling, you have to say more, and let the eunuch Ling talk less."

"The best thing is that you tell eunuch Ling everything you know in detail, but don't keep a word of what eunuch Ling said in your heart."

"It makes sense, you have to figure it out for yourself..."

After pricking up her ears, remembering Liu Sheng's words in her heart, Xia Que nodded heavily, and bowed again;
After Liu Sheng waved his hand again, Xia Quefang came again: "There is no news from Qilan Hall."

"But I feel that no news or movement is the biggest news and movement."

"It's just what news is this news, what is this movement..."

"I'm stupid, I really don't understand why..."

Hearing Xia Que finally talk about the Palace of Qilan, Liu Sheng felt a sense of relief in his heart;
And after recalling Xia Que's sentence "no movement, the biggest movement", Liu Sheng turned his head slightly and looked at Xia Que with a meaningful look.

"Hmm~"

"good."

"In the early years, you also learned a lot from the eunuch Ling's side?"

"—His Royal Highness's praise."

"—Besides sawing with a knife, if you can do a little work for His Highness, you will die without regret..."

"Um······"

···
"At the Qilan Palace, keep an eye on it too."

"The Mrs. Wang in the Qilan Palace is much more difficult to deal with than the one in the Phoenix Palace."

"Especially pay attention to the actions of Qilan Palace and Jiaofang Palace."

"The queen mother is kind, but Qilan is vicious;"

"As a son, you still have to protect your mother..."

"—Here..."

···
"There is also King Jiaoxi, we should also pay attention."

"Especially the members of the Wang and Tian families, unless necessary, must not appear within [-] steps of King Jiaoxi."

"This matter is related to the stability of the ancestral temple and the country!"

"—here!"

"Um······"

After making several explanations one after another, and getting Xia Que's clear promise, Liu Sheng leaned back on the reclining chair;
Looking up at the top of the hall, he was silent for a long time, and then asked again: "The Xiongnu mission, what's going on recently?"

"For the Xiongnu mission, how about the things on the streets of Chang'an?"

"Lin Jiang, the kings of the river, has anyone tried to meet secretly with the Huns, or exchange letters?"

Seeing Liu Sheng ask about the Xiongnu mission, Xia Que's expression froze for a moment;
He raised his head worriedly, hesitated for a long time, and finally, under Liu Sheng's urging eyes, bent down again and lowered his head full of guilt.

"Slave, slave don't know;"

"The matter of the Huns mission is really..."

"Your Highness forgive me..."

The terrified voice only attracted Liu Sheng to wave his hands nonchalantly.

"No problem."

"Go back and find..."

···
"Hi, that's all;"

"I'll go find out myself."

"Tomorrow morning, deliver the post for me."

"Well~ I said that in the afternoon, I will go to the door in person to meet Dianke."

"—Here..."

After finishing this last matter, Liu Sheng finally waved his hand, signaling Xia Que to retreat;
After Xia Que saluted again as if she had received an amnesty, she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and exited the hall from the side door. Liu Sheng, who was slumped on the recliner, finally let out another long sigh.

"Oh~..."

"It's all a matter..."

"It's just a prince, and it's just these few things that make me upset and busy;"

"If in the future..."

···
"Whoo~"

"The old man has not been easy all these years..."

"After all, the burden on our shoulders is the whole world."

"not to mention······"

"Ugh·········"

Talking to himself, Liu Sheng finally closed his eyes again;

It's just a long night, and Prince Sheng, who was exhausted both physically and mentally, was sleepless again...
