Eight hundred and twentieth chapters tea instead of wine

In the yard full of light fragrance of various plants, Guo Shao couldn't help asking: "Can't you get out of your pulse?"

Mrs. Lu, who was sitting opposite, turned red with her face, her fingers were very unstable, and she frowned and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry."

Guo Shao had to shut up, and then saw Lu Lan take a deep breath, close his eyes slightly, press his fingertips on his wrist for a long time, and finally said, "Change the other side." After a while, she frowned slightly: "Your Majesty's pulse is a little messy. It's been more than a month since then, so you can't delay any further. You must take good care of yourself."

Guo Shao said: "Miss Lu didn't prescribe medicine for me, how can I maintain it?"

Lu Lan sniffed her little nose, "Stop drinking."

Guo Shao pondered: "The court banquet in recent days."

Lu Lan pursed and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is above, and he just changed the wine to tea, but who knows?" She pondered for a moment, "You can't work too hard, at night... at night..." Lu Lan's face turned red when she said this, and her voice turned like a mosquito flapping her wings, "Don't be lucky that the concubines are too often..."

Guo Shao took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth, coughed to the point of hiding, and then he immediately stopped talking when Lu Lan heard it. She picked up her pen and wrote the prescription seriously. Perhaps, she thought Guo Shao was hinting at something, but she really misunderstood.

Looking at Lu Lan's red face and serious expression, Guo Shao somehow suddenly remembered Li Yuan'er a few years ago. When she was feeling like she was in the spring breeze for the first time, she shouldn't think too much, but when she found out that the person she cared about the most was not her, would she mind?

After Lu Lan instructed the eunuch Wang Zhong who was accompanying him, Guo Shao calmly left the yard. He rode the imperial chariot and went straight to Concubine Li's palace.

There is a kind of tree in the imperial concubine's palace. The leaves in spring are also red, and they are beautifully mixed with green trees, but they are not maples. Guo Shao knew that the maple leaves will turn red in autumn, but he never asked what kind of tree it was. He was curious every time he saw it, but he forgot it in a blink of an eye. After all, there are often more things that make him care about.

The emperor's arrival made the imperial concubine very happy. She led the eunuchs and palace maids from the entire palace to welcome her. The atmosphere of enthusiasm and surprise was very strong.

After some etiquette, Li Yuan'er asked the palace ladies to bring Guo Zhang over to pay homage to his father.

Guo Shao stretched out his rough palm and touched his son's head. He did not ask about his studies, but said, "Does Zhang'er like spring?"

Guo Zhang was a little afraid of his father at first, and nodded immediately when he heard this. Guo Shao asked him why he liked it again. Guo Zhang said in a childish voice with a childish voice: "The peach blossoms are very beautiful, and you can also dig a bird's nest with the emperor!"

"Haha..." Guo Shao laughed after hearing this, and even Li Yuaner and the palace people couldn't help but smile.

Li Yuan'er blamed the child a few words and said, "Go out to play!"

Guo Zhang also clasped his fists in a good manner and said, "My son is leaving."

Seeing this, Guo Shao laughed again and thought to himself: If he were tortured, he would definitely be relieved and ran away.

He turned to Li Yuaner and said, "I think the most important thing for a child is not his studies."

"Oh?" Li Yuan'er looked at Guo Shao with interest, with a round face looking forward to it.

Guo Shao pondered for a moment and said, "The most important thing is to make him love all things in this world, to be kind to people and to everything in his heart."

After hearing this, Li Yuan'er said softly: "The children will definitely be as broad as His Majesty when they are tall.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Be honest."

Guo Shao looked at the pink balls of flowers outside the window, and there seemed to be a spring breeze blowing by his heart. He felt very comfortable and felt that there were many beautiful things in the world. But suddenly he was moved by such a beautiful scenery and the beauty, and he felt a little moved. He turned around and saw Li Yuaner's hair tied up again. Now he is a mother, and he is no longer the beautiful little girl who was in love back then.

Those waiting for the best years, those implicit and bold words, and the reluctant eyes on the pavilion in the snow surged into Guo Shao's heart one by one.

He couldn't help but whisper: "Yuan'er, I feel sorry for you."

After hearing this, Li Yuan'er's expression changed and looked at Guo Shao with red lips: "Your Majesty treats me well, why do you say this?"

Guo Shao lowered his head and thought. At this time, Li Yuaner said softly again: "Only Your Majesty can say such words..."

Guo Shao exhaled and said, "I have been busy with wars over the years and have really neglected you."

Li Yuan'er smiled and shook her head: "Your Majesty, the lord of all people, should put national affairs first."

At this time, Guo Shao reached out and took out a silk bag from his sleeve bag, unbuttoned the red rope tied to the mouth of the bag, put it on the table and pushed it forward: "I have brought some small gifts to the concubine."

"Thank you for your kindness and reward." Li Yuan'er happily opened the bag, took out a string of white coins from it, and took it curiously in her hand for a while, then quickly raised her head and said, "Oh, I have the expenses of the inner treasury every month, so you don't need your Majesty to reward again..."

Guo Shao said calmly: "Silver is produced in Japan in Dongdao. This batch of silver coins is the first batch, and the imperial concubine is also the first to spend such coins."

After hearing this, Li Yuaner was a little flattered. Her white fingers fumbled into the coin and exclaimed, "The patterns and characters on it are really finely cast...a round?"

Guo Shao smiled and said, "Each silver coin is recorded as one round, weighing three coins, and is worth 200 coins of copper coins. They go from Shijian Yinshan to Tokyo workshop. After casting, they go two places: one is to enter the inner warehouse, and the other is to enter the sea trade bank. They are like grain, which will inject a steady stream of power into the entire Daxun!"

In fact, Guo Shao really wanted to compare silver coins to fuel and mechanisms to huge machines.

The Neiku is the engine of the imperial war machine. The Daxu Imperial Army and the guards are only loyal to the emperor because their military expenditure and military pay come directly from the Neiku! The "fuel" entering the Neiku will launch this huge war machine to realize a greater dream and glory for Guo Shao! With money, it will be particularly easy to run the war machine.

The currency of the money house is the driving force for the circulation of industrial and commercial transactions. The prosperity of commerce will gradually drive the sharp change and vitality of the economy!

...

The foreseeable huge monetary income made the atmosphere of Daxu a little fanatic. Not only did the six dukes and other generals actively support the opening of territory, but the opinions of civil servants also changed a little.

Officials from the Privy Council and the Political Affairs Hall planned several national policies, all of which focused on opening up borders and territories.

But Guo Shao was not satisfied with these strategies! Because no matter what the direction of progress is, several strategies are too rigid and orderly.

Guo Shao said in front of more than twenty most powerful ministers in the Political Consultation Hall: "If you have to wait to slowly digest the new sphere of influence, the process is too long and it will take ten years to make a plan. At this time, our dynasty should first let go of our hands and circle a big frame, and then gradually operate it!"

Wang Pu politely said: "Your Majesty's intention is to go south to advance to Dali.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Country?”

Unexpectedly, Guo Shao shook his head.

Wang Pu pondered for a moment, stared at him and tentatively, "Jiaozhi?"

But Guo Shao still did not nod. He stood up and walked down, paced back and forth between the ministers on both sides, and everyone stood up one after another.

Guo Shao walked to the front of the large wooden frame where Wei Renpu had just stood and stood still, stretched out his hand and pointed at the blank space at the bottom of the large picture, "Malacca Strait!"

The civil and military officials looked at each other, and some of them looked confused, as if they had never heard of this place name.

Guo Shao said calmly: "Dashi, and the barbarian countries in the west, want to trade in the east, and they must pass this water outlet from the sea. When I control this pass to the south, I will include the entire East China Sea and the South China Sea in the scope of Eastern trade. All rules will be formulated by Daxu!" Guo Shao reached out and drew a big circle on the picture, "The arrival of countries in the west, commercial taxes, and ports of call can be formulated by the court after weighing the pros and cons of each party."

While he was walking, he pondered his grand idea, "Indulging the cannibals to trade in the local area may cause trouble. The Jiaolong Army should first establish a port in Luzon and let Daxu merchants go to Luzon; the Daxu merchants also go to Luzon and then conduct transactions.

With Malacca as the boundary, the East China Sea and the South China Sea will become Neihu of the Daxu Dynasty. Within the sphere of influence, no matter the products of Dali and the grain trade in Jiaozhi Chameng, you can discuss it with it, or convince it by the pros and cons.”

After hearing this, the ministers agreed or not, they first praised it. Yang Biao was excited and shouted loudly: "If you don't accept your Majesty, you will use your sword to convince them!"

Guo Shao seemed to be inspired by everyone's praises, and now he said with great importance, "The harbor city of Luzon is named 'Macheng'."

The ministers were talking a lot. Guo Shao changed his tone and turned his attention to the north. "In the west, we must completely control the passage from the Central Plains to the Hexi Corridor, and include all the land along the way into the territory. Tubo, Uighur and other tribes are not allowed to threaten the road again; through the Hexi Corridor, we can obtain good horse products trade in the northwest and Western Regions, and promote Daxu's forces to the countries in the Western Regions.

In the east, by fulfilling the promise before the war, we entered the military camp, first extending our troops to western Liaoning and gradually expanding to Liaodong..."

Guo Shao stood in front of the map, and his mood could not calm down for a long time. This was a grand and great attempt. If it was realized, half of the earth would be included in his sphere of influence!

Malacca now doesn’t even have a map, but what does it matter? His many successful experiences made him believe that the emperor’s will is stronger than he imagined, and there must be a way to achieve his goals.

The blank space on that map is not a place that no one can reach... The great cannibals can reach the coast of Southern Han, and the sailing era must have passed through the Strait of Malacca.

The navigation capacity of this era is limited, but all countries have very weak strength at sea. As long as Xu Jun is a little stronger than other countries, he can take the initiative!

The ministers in the Political Affairs Hall were shocked and confused. Guo Shao also knew that his thoughts were almost crazy, but if he didn't try, how could he know how powerful the power in this world is?!

"I, the son of heaven, all the kings under the heavens are kings, and all the kings and ministers are kings. As long as the land they know should follow the order of the Daxu dynasty!" Guo Shao calmly looked back and encouraged the confidence of the ministers without any humility.
