When it comes to Dingguo Gong of the current dynasty, the first thing that reminds people is not his full of wisdom, not his Xuanhe family background, but his face! And he was able to revive the Guogong Mansion, and the role of this face was also indispensable.

It is said that at the Lantern Festival of Shangyuan Festival that year, Zhu Zi, the minister of the current holy feast, was full of ministers. The sage opened his eyes and phoenix eyes, looking forward to the west, and felt that the heroes of the world were all in my possession, but after all, there was a slight deficiency in his heart, especially when he looked at the wrinkled Taifu and then looked at the veteran with a halberd, and finally glanced at the middle-aged men and elderly men in the treasure hall, and the young and vigorous emperor suddenly felt that this life was really lonely like snow.

The lonely emperor suddenly looked back and found that in the dim light, under the bright moon and plum blossoms, there were a group of officials squandering and laughing. There is one person, a young man, quiet and independent, far away from the hustle and bustle, bright as a spring moon willow, pavilion like a pine in the valley, and the end is noble and cold. His Majesty the Emperor's eyes suddenly lit up, and the feeling of loneliness was swept away, and he blurted out in eight steps: "Beautiful clouds!" There are thousands of variety, only Qing is gorgeous! Beautiful clouds! ”

Yuan Muyun, who was still the son of the world at the time, already had a good reputation, and I don't know how many dreams of the boudoir were disturbed. It is even more amazing to get the Jinkou jade comment, especially "the dazzling and beautiful are the only ones", which is simply the most widely circulated sentence and the highest support rate since the saint ascended the throne. Everyone bit their handkerchiefs and sighed, His Majesty the Emperor is really heroic, we can't describe it, let you say it thoroughly.

The Lang officials of this Great Xia were originally selected from the children of the nobility, and the appearance accounted for a large proportion of the selection criteria, which was a high-end vase for royal furnishings. And among these vases, Yuan Muyun can still stand out, which shows that the appearance is really eye-catching. Therefore, before he could reach the weak crown, he borrowed the advantage of his face, entered the inner court by Lang, entered the palace to study, and was intelligent and clever by nature, prudent in his work, full of whimsy, and quickly loved His Majesty, and could not be separated for a while.

As soon as he ascended the throne, he tore off the mask of good-neighborliness and friendship, and actively expanded his territory to prepare for the "Enga Siyi".

This is a large wave of conservatives who stood up: "Your Majesty cannot fight, our country of etiquette has always been benevolent and generous, no matter whether you are high or low, you will treat it preferentially, besides, your Majesty, you think about the bloody lessons of the previous dynasty, and the loss is not bad enough--In short, let's follow the old routine." ”

The emperor looked at Yuan Muyun: "Yuan Qing, you say." ”

"Let's fight."

Conservatives glared.

The emperor laughed: "Sure enough, it is still Yuan Qing who knows my intentions." ”

"However, you'd better go to the household department to settle accounts."

―――

The emperor slapped the table: "Where's the money!" What about my money! ”

Household Department: "I want to negotiate peace, I want to settle the people, I want to repair projects, I want to give the princes, and I want to raise the harem ---"

Emperor:---

At that time, Daxia and Beirong were repeatedly fighting, and the young monarch had already had the ambition of Jingbian, but the treasury was empty and the material resources were insufficient. The emperor who wants to show his eloquence and military strategy is very unhappy, I want to show my prestige of the four states, but I have no money!

At the critical moment, Yuan Muyun found out the crux of the problem, Your Majesty, you don't have no money, all the money in the world is yours, and the key is to be able to collect it. His Majesty looked complaining: You don't want to do it, but if you increase taxes, there will inevitably be a lot of resentment, and I don't want to be a tyrant.

"Rest assured, the mountain people have their own tricks. It's never the ordinary people who have money, and it's useless for you to raise taxes."

"Do you intend to take advantage of the rich? No, I am afraid that there will be infamy. ”

Those who can raise money like it, but the subjects don't. In a short period of time, it is much more difficult to get fixed assets, and if you want to get money, you always have to offend some people. For example, the great reformer Wang Anshi, who implemented a green seedling law, the people were better, and the treasury was full, but he offended the rich class so much that even the generous Su Zhe scolded him as "little husband!" "It's inevitable to be famous, not to mention Yuan Muyun's weak posterity. I have to say that His Majesty's love is here, and when he was so anxious to grab his hair, he still cherished Yuan Muyun's reputation. Although, in the end, Daddy Yuan's reputation still failed to become decent.

There are two hardest things in the world to do, one is to put your own thoughts into other people's heads, and the other is to put other people's money in your own pocket. To convince someone to come up with their own money is to add up two of the hardest things in the world to do. How can it be handled properly? Yuan Muyun said: Encouraging the rich to consume high is a good policy.

So he proposed a seemingly immoral construction: the large-scale escort industry and Bo 90 color industry were all nationalized. The two legal industries that existed in ancient times were reorganized, strictly controlled, and hung up the sky-lettered signboards.

The ancient dragon god once said that killers and prostitutes are the two oldest professions, and this profession was born from the day of the birth of mankind. And in China, since the Spring and Autumn Period, the ancestors legalized the Qinglou. It is not someone else who raises this attention, it is the ghost who is a good person, Guan Zhong Guan Yiwu.

However, Yuan Muyun did it more boldly, so Emperor Zhengwei of Great Xia became the first emperor to open a brothel and a casino under his name.

A large wave of ministers stood up: "Your Majesty, do you want face or money!" ”

Emperor: ―――

Yuan Muyun squinted with a smile: "Your Majesty, General Fuyuan urged the salary again yesterday." ”

Emperor: "I want money!" ”

Counselor: ―――

No one dared to criticize the emperor, but Yuan Muyun was different. Those gentlemen who are high-spirited and bright, Huai Jin, and the gentlemen who hold Yu are even more indulgent to dump sewage on him, insulting Swen is the lightest, and it is not strict to flatter the monarch, and it is even more common to accuse him of "taking money in a good way".

The emperor touched his face: "Yuan Qing, you seem to be hated." ”

Yuan Muyun nodded: "Just get used to it." ”

In fact, on the surface, this measure seems to encourage everyone to be immoral, but in fact, considering a reality: the low status of women in all dynasties and dynasties, and the Qinglou Chu Pavilion has blossomed. Such women are of humble status, inferior to livestock. There have even been cases of exchanging courtesans for horses, and the director zhì courtesans were killed headlong because of this humiliation. Now at least with the corresponding regulations and the recognition of the law, the situation is not necessarily worse. At the same time, a decree was issued that the ministers and businessmen of the imperial court were not allowed to raise courtesans and plays, and could only make an appointment for customization in the government-run Qinglou. Strict discipline, to redeem the Qinglou woman, if she is an official, she will be exempted from a fine for business. If they seduce or tease in private, and the official prostitutes use them for personal use, once verified, they will be fined at least and their homes will be raided at the worst.

I have to say that this seemingly inauthentic decree has been supported by most women when it is actually implemented. At least when Xianggong fools around again, he knows to take it easy.

At the same time, there is an unspoken rule in society that secretly breeds: "If you don't see Qionghua, you are not rich, and if you don't touch Linglong, you are not proud."

Qionghua Building is a first-class high-end club that has opened all over the country, and the first place where the money is spent overnight, and the introduction fees of those ladies there are all so high that it is staggering. Linglong Bureau is also a state-run casino that blooms everywhere, with good service and complete facilities, and if you don't go in and walk around, you don't know how the real rich people squander. As the saying goes, people have vanity, and fashion is easy to blind people's eyes. For example, the Dingguo Mansion took the lead in setting a precedent, and the most valuable Qionghua woman must be invited to play and sing for a banquet outing, so how can other first-class and second-class Bo Rongsheng's wealthy families be willing to lag behind?

Another example is that today, the Shandong salt merchant walked into the Linglong Bureau, and the next day he walked out with bloodshot eyes: "Haha, happy, spend a lot of money, and feel relaxed." "Then the jewelers, porcelain merchants, silk merchants, Hui merchants, and Cantonese merchants who came in later were embarrassed to spend only 100 gold. In general, if you want to integrate into the circle of a certain class, money is the most effective stepping stone. To prove that you are worth a lot, you have to go up to the corresponding table.

I have to say that this method is very poisonous and works quickly. Back in the face of the Great Depression, a state in the United States passed a bill to legalize gambling, and Las Vegas has since sprung up in the vast desert and become a gold cave for drunken gold fans. And now, His Majesty the Emperor has a good time as the boss and quickly earns a lot of money.

Of course, after all, this method is a short-term detoxification plan, and the development of productive forces is the last word. When you see a good thing, you will accept it and wait for the opportunity to stop. The rewards and encouragement of the champion of farming and the champion of striking iron are all a later story.

Later, Beirong really committed the border, the Great Xia soldiers were well-paid, and several city defense battles were victorious, and the people's hearts were happy, and Yuan Muyun grabbed the emperor who was about to move: "Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, you can't fight now." ”

The emperor was depressed: "Now they lack food and clothing, people are sleepy and horses are lacking, if they don't fight at this time, will they wait until next year when the horses are strong and fat?" ”

"No, no. Your Majesty, I'll tell you a story," Yuan Muyun pressed the emperor's arm that was anxious to seal.

"There was a hunter who went hunting with his hounds, and when he found a rabbit, he let the hounds chase it. As a result, the hound did not catch up and let the rabbit run away. The hunter scolded the dog for being incompetent. The dog said: "It is for my life, how can I be the same?" ”

After all, His Majesty had a flexible brain, and immediately reacted: "Now that midwinter is approaching, it is difficult for people and animals in Beirong to survive, so they have the heart to invade the south." They are trading their lives for food, and naturally they are fighting to the death, and even if we can succeed in the battle, we will pay a huge price. Moreover, this also deepened the hatred between Great Xia and Beirong, and next year, the battle will be even more difficult to fight. ”

"Your Majesty is wise."

"I'm not happy! I've been working hard for so long ---? Don't let me breathe yet? ”

"Hmm. 陛xià can be angry, and it can be more beautiful. ”

"How?"

"If we have money, we use it to open the way. Problems that can be solved with money are not called problems. Yuan Muyun put forward a plan and deduced, and the emperor understood.

So the envoy of Great Xia and the leader of Beirong met: "Everyone actually doesn't want to do it, right? Who wants to throw their lives away on the battlefield if they live well? Let's talk about it. ”

Therefore, in line with the core idea of eating, drinking, and making friends, the border mutually beneficial and friendly trade terms were signed. Open the border market, Daxia sold firewood, rice, oil, salt and iron to Beirong, bought ghee, milk wine, lamb leg and other specialties, of course, at the same time, there were also horse breeds and horn bows at high prices.

The main battle faction was angry: Yuan Muyun, you are actually anti-water!

Conservatives are even more angry: It's not that you haven't beaten you, why do you have to be scolded!

The diehards are the most angry: We are in the 90s of the heavens, and we have everything, so why do we need to communicate with the barbarians?

The emperor touched his face: "Yuan Qing, you seem to be hated." ”

Yuan Muyun nodded: "Just get used to it." ”

Emperor:---

In short, the emperor felt more and more that Yuan Muyun had really sacrificed too much for himself -- it was simply a head, you take the black cauldron, and I would carry it. If Yuan Muyun, a good teammate of Great Xia, is definitely on the list, so he will reward wealth and food to compensate from various other aspects. It is common to enter the palace to accompany the hunting from the upper reaches, and even travel in the same car and sit at the same table. Staying in the palace also happens from time to time -- in short, four words, very honorable and favored.

However, he was too young after all, and his appearance was too outstanding, so he gradually became gossipy. The emperor naturally no one dares to speak, but Yuan Muyun is different, he can say that he dares to admonish and speak against the ear for a lifetime, and the old imperial history is an excerpt of the book: "Dingguo Gong does not govern the inspection" His Majesty Xià looked at it, laughed, reviewed the "known", and then pulled Yuan Muyun to still be the same, and said uninhibitedly (unashamedly): "Let's talk about our fish and water situation and let others say it." ”

And today, after the dispersal of the dynasty, Yuan Guogong was left behind, if nothing else, just a lace news.

It turned out that another folk scholar wrote an article, if not for anything else, but for the crusade against Yuan Guogong. The article is very wonderful, and there are many details such as "confusing the Lord with color", "changing clothes into the room", "soft and charming", "climbing skirt attached" and so on. As soon as the article came out, it was full of wind and rain, even if Yuan Muyun was not included in "The Biography of She Xing", he would be included in "The Biography of Foreign Relatives". Even the emperor was surprised: how did this person write something that I don't know?

Yuan Muyun looked at the emperor, then at the text in his hand, and suddenly tore off His Majesty's shirt.

Emperor: "Are you angry?" Don't worry, I'll get him out! It defiled such a pure relationship between the two of us! ”

Yuan Muyun shook his head, pointed to the change of clothes and entered the room, and said lightly: "You can't bear the infamy in vain." ”

Emperor:---
