Chapter 165 ?? The Prince's Theory!
"Uh...this..." Yu Deshou also looked embarrassed:
"Your Majesty, I think the rewards from the court are not worth mentioning to His Highness Yu. It's better to... just talk about what you mean? How about this?"
"It's simply nonsense!" Shang Emperor suddenly slapped the dragon throne and said in a voice:
"The big merchants are routine, and rewards and punishments are clear. Such perfunctory behavior is simply an insult to my big merchants!"
Yu Deshou looked ugly and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This... I don't know what."
Shang Huang was speechless, and then said in a deep voice: "If you can't even think of a reward, then let's put it aside!"
"Your Majesty, I have a letter from Brunei, and a Brunei envoy will come to visit soon."
After Xun Xiuxian's death, Xue Zhi, the Minister of the New Rites, whispered.
"Oh?" Shang Huang couldn't help but look stunned: "It's probably not a good thing to come here at this time!"
"That's right!" Yu Deshou's face narrowed: "I also think that coming here at this time may be detrimental to our Da Shang."
"Your Majesty, we have not grasped the movements of the Southern Barbarians now. If Brunei intervenes at this time, our Da Shang may face a great disaster." Yu Yuanqing's face couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Now that the civil strife in Dashang has just been eased, there has not been time to adjust, but Brunei is visiting at this time, I am afraid that the visitor is not good.
"Your Majesty, no matter when Brunei is visiting, we still need to prepare. There is no reason to turn away the envoys from all countries."
Xue Zhi spoke slowly.
"That's right!" Emperor Shang nodded slightly and said in a calm voice: "Xue Zhi, your Ministry of Rites prepare as soon as possible!"
"No!" Xue Zhi responded and returned to his position.
...
Time flies, and before I know it, three or four days have passed.
Yun Yi appeared in the sight of every citizen in the past few days, walking around the streets and understanding the people's feelings.
"I said to Lao Zhang. I heard that Xing'an Chamber of Commerce has launched the latest curved plow. Have you bought it?" A thin old man looked at the slightly strong old man beside him and spoke.
"Haha, I heard that this curved plow is three times faster than the plowing speed of an ordinary straight plow. My waiter just came!"
"What did you say?" Hearing this, the thin old man's expression changed instantly, but then he couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, I know Lao Zhang, you are joking with me. Why do you like to argue with others now?"
"Hmm? Why did I argue with you?"
Old Zhang's face was stunned and couldn't help but say helplessly.
"If this is three times faster than an ordinary plow, then it will all fly? Still saying it's not arguing?" The thin old man shook his head and couldn't help but sneer.
And at this moment, a young and strong man walked over slowly with a set of curved plows on his shoulders.
"Oh? Li Ergou, it seems that he has just bought the Quyuan Plough."
"Haha!" Old Man Zhang suddenly laughed and shouted: "Ergouzi, come here!"
Seeing that Old Man Zhang called him, the young and strong man quickly stepped over and walked over, walked closer and smiled, "Oh, Uncle Zhang, what's the matter with you calling me?"
"Hurry, please introduce this old boy to this new type of curved plow, is it easy to use or something?"
Li Ergou laughed at the moment and said happily: "I said Uncle Zhang, this is the Quyuan Plough invented by His Highness King Yu. Who is His Highness King Yu? I created the best wine in the world and the best paper in the world... You said that, what is the best product for His Highness King Yu?"
"Anyway, it won't be bad, haha!" Old Man Hu laughed suddenly and said, "Old Zhang told me that the plowing speed is three times that of an ordinary plow, and you can't brag like this even if you brag!"
"If you are proficient in operation, you can indeed reach three times the speed!" Li Ergou nodded with a very serious expression.
"What! Is this true?" Old Man Hu stood up and said incredible.
"Uncle Hu, you can tell at a try. Why don't you go to the field with me to witness it?" Seeing the old man Hu's reaction, Li Ergou couldn't help but speak.
However, Old Man Hu was stunned and said nothing for a long time!
...
At this time, there were always people discussing in groups of people on the streets of Chang'an.
"His Royal Highness Yu is not only a hero with great military achievements, but also a god who revitalizes our great Shang Dynasty!"
"That's right, I once thought that His Highness, King Yu, was the Creation God sent to me by God. He was almost omnipotent, and he was simply a god who came to earth!"
"But speaking of this, the age of his nobles should be enough, it should be almost time to establish a prince?" Suddenly, a young scholar lit up and said, "I said, who do you think is possible to become the prince?"
"Uh...this..." A man next to him scratched his head and whispered: "I really don't know!"
"But I have heard some rumors that the prince appointed by His Majesty is the King of Shang, and now King Yu has risen instantly and becomes the prince of the current dynasty, and the prince that the Emperor of Shang values the most. It is not certain who is the prince now."
"That's right! But I personally think that Your Highness, King Yu, is more suitable to be an emperor!"
"I don't think so. His Highness, King Yu, has been a playboy since he was a child, and has done a lot of harm to the people. His Highness, King Shang, has been in the military since he was a child and has made great contributions. Why is he not the King of Shang?" The vendor who had not spoken suddenly said.
The young scholar was calm and said slowly: "Let's find His Highness Shang King's contributions, please listen?"
"His Royal Highness Shang has been involved in the battlefield since he was a child, fighting against the Southern Barbarians, and becoming the overlord who shocked the side!"
"I'll ask you, will the entire army of Shang Wang was wiped out in the war in the southern border?
"That's true. Then tell me how King Yu is the crown prince?"
The young scholar's face calmed down and he immediately spoke: "His Royal Highness Yu invented the world's number one wine, and even sold it at a low price."
"The paper and salt sold by his Xing'an Chamber of Commerce are of the highest quality. Who can compare it with it? And it is sold at a low price for the people, at least ten times cheaper than other Chambers of Commerce."
"The pension is even more popular with the people! The emergence of the Quyuan Plough is a magical weapon for the country, and it can make the people's harvest more than double!" Speaking of this, the young man's eyes narrowed: "Who should the prince be?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then the vendor continued to ask: "Even so, the King of Shang is the eldest son."
"Is this important? Those who call themselves emperors are not something that wise rulers cannot do, let alone be the ones who should eat His Majesty..." At this point, the young scholar did not continue to say anything.
"Shhh...there are ears in the partition wall!"
Everyone around him suddenly made a sound ban, and their faces turned pale for a moment.
If it was spread to the Emperor Shang at that time, it would have been beheaded!
This matter is a taboo for the Shang Emperor. No one dares to mention it after ascending the throne, and it has been blocked for so long.
When everyone thought of this, they couldn't help but feel a little frightened, fearing that they would be heard by others.
After a moment, everyone dispersed in a hurry!
Chapter completed!
