Chapter 180: A Two-Pronged Approach (Three Watches)

Chen Wenhui saw Liu Yan asking, so she had to say: "His Royal Highness the Prince's method is feasible. However, if you simply use this method, you will be more passive. I think it's a good way to do both. ”

Liu Yan hurriedly asked: "What is a two-pronged approach?" ”

Chen Wenhui said: "In addition to military threats, you can also corrupt these steppe peoples, when they become lazy, stupid, and insatiable, their combat effectiveness will decline, and in this way, they will not be able to fight us." ”

Liu Yan, Liu Jingyuan, and Zhao Chongyi were all attracted at once.

Liu Yan asked, "How to corrupt the law?" ”

Chen Wenhui said: "In the past, the imperial court did not trade with the grassland peoples in the northwest. Later, Chongyi made a concession to the emperor, and now part of the trade with the northwest has begun. In fact, this is not enough, and there should be full trade. It is necessary not only to trade, but also to encourage those nationalities in the northwest to become rich. Under trade, our beautiful silk and delicious tea can flow to the northwest. In this way, they can not be tempted, and if they are tempted, they want to think of ways to make money and buy our things. If they want to make money, they have to raise more cattle and sheep. In this way, cattle, sheep, and war horses are all sold to our Dachu, and our people can have more meat to eat. Second, they didn't have to risk dying in battle to get these beautiful silks, so they naturally didn't want to start a war. Third, the soil on the northwest grassland is very thin, and under their overgrazing, it will make the grassland desertified, and without the grassland on which they depend, can they still dominate? ”

Liu Yan couldn't help but shudder, is this a desperate plan? It's chilling to think about the beautiful steppe turning into a desert. Zhao Chongyi was reluctant and said, "Although." I hate the barbarians, but I don't want the beautiful steppe to turn into a merciless desert. It's not good. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said, "This can be controlled." In fact, turning into a desert can wipe out the grassland peoples. However, it has also had a bad impact on the environment of our Dachu. First of all, our capital will be affected, and when the wind and sand are in the sky, will we still be able to live? So, we can control it. For those who obey us, we teach them how to get rich. It can also protect the environment. Let the grassland become more and more fertile. For those who do not obey us, we lead them to overgraze, so that their territory becomes worse and worse, and naturally they cannot survive. How can you oppose us? When the time comes. As soon as our forces are out. Naturally, they were obedient. At that time, we wasted some effort to maintain the desertified grassland. You can also feed it back. As for the obedient people, they cannot remain where they are. It can be done the way I and my big brother did. My eldest brother brought the disobedient Japanese people he had captured there to my island of Luzon. I transported my disobedient natives to the Wa Kingdom. In this way, although a little travel fee is wasted, both sides can be stabilized and can be used. ”

Liu Yan couldn't help but nodded.

Chen Wenhui said: "Things are expensive to leave their hometowns, and people are cheap to leave their hometowns." Those hateful barbarians left the prairie, and in my island of Luzon, it was not good, and now intermarriage is common. I think, in a few years, these barbarians will be completely integrated into our Luzon Island, where can they still oppose our Great Chu? ”

Liu Yan and Liu Jingyuan's eyes lit up, which is a good way. However, this is all theoretical, and the specific operation needs to be carefully discussed.

Liu Yan and Liu Jingyuan couldn't help but start discussing.

Chen Wenhui was not very interested in these, although Zhao Chongyi wanted to listen to the results of the discussion between Liu Jingyuan and Liu Yan, but Chen Wenhui asked him in a low voice, where did he dare not answer, besides, when he got out of the palace, Liu Jingyuan would definitely tell him.

Zhao Chongyi began to listen intently to Chen Wenhui's whispering to him. Chen Wenhui said: "Your third sister is really in the water. Back then, I thanked you for saving me, respected her, and was ready to make friends with her, but she was arrogant and didn't know what to do, and my mother and I went home angry. After so many years, everyone has grown up, I think she should have a better brain, why is she still like this? Is it the best in this world for your loyal and righteous mansion? Everyone else wants to tie up with the loyal and righteous government? ”

Zhao Chongyi was not interested in the younger sisters born by the three mothers-in-law, and said when he heard the words: "The three sisters were all brought up by their mothers, and they don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, which is very annoying." Especially when my eldest sister Zhao Yuman was still alive, she was even more rude and unreasonable, and she didn't make me any trouble. However, I didn't bother to pay attention to them, no matter how domineering they were, they could only stay in the inner house, I was annoyed, so I went out to play with the prince, and played with Ah Yuan, and there was no way for them to get angry. However, my sister-in-law is different. The sister-in-law also lives in the inner house, and she is bullied by such a sister-in-law. Thankfully, she died. ”

Chen Wenhui thought about the contact with Zhao Yuman, and said with deep sympathy: "Mrs. Han should be better off now." Zhao Yuman died, and Zhao Yuwen entered the palace. Isn't it easier to deal with the remaining Zhao Yufei? ”

Zhao Chongyi said: "When the three sisters were here before, the sister-in-law couldn't hold on. Fortunately, later we all had to go to the Northwest Battlefield, and my sister-in-law had to take care of us, and she also went to Tiebi Pass, so we only had a few years of respite. My nephew, niece, was also born at that time. Later, the eldest sister had an accident and the sister-in-law came back, although she helped take care of the housework in the capital for a period of time, but because the eldest sister died, the second sister entered the palace, and there was only one ignorant third sister left, which was much better. ”

Chen Wenhui thinks about it.

Zhao Chongyi continued: "However, now, the third sister has grown up and should have gotten married, but her husband's family has to keep filial piety, and it will take two years later to get married. This caused a lot of trouble for the sister-in-law. Now my father took my mother-in-law out of the city to live, but my sister-in-law was not at peace, and a sister-in-law alone tossed her to death. I couldn't help but look at it. It's just that the eldest brother is good at everything, but he loves the third sister very much, and he doesn't help the sister-in-law at all, hey, the sister-in-law's life is really sad. The sister-in-law said that in the future, it would be good if you could enter the door, she would be able to have more arms. ”

Chen Wenhui sneered and said, "But, we don't live in the Zhongyi Mansion?" We are going to live in my county lord's mansion, how can we make Mrs. Han's arms? ”

Zhao Chongyi frowned and said, "This is really true. The sister-in-law is so pitiful. But if we move to the Zhongyi Mansion for the sake of our sister-in-law, I don't want to, forget it, the dead friends don't die in the poor way, that abrasive Zhao Yufei should let the sister-in-law deal with it. We are still living our little life in the county lord's mansion in peace. By the way, I'll tell you. During the period of time that you didn't come back, I didn't have anything to do anyway, so I helped Lord Chen watch the craftsmen build the county lord's mansion for you. That mansion is so beautiful. I heard that the drawings were all designed with the help of the black masters, and they were all drafted by you. Sister, you're really talented. I really want to live in that beautiful house right now. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Chongyi's face was yearning and excited. Chen Wenhui blushed and said, "Phew, which one wants to live with you?" ”

Zhao Chongyi said with a hippie smile: "We are a royal marriage, how can we not live together?" ”

Chen Wenhui had to turn her face away and ignore him. Zhao Chongyi saw that his sweetheart was really annoyed, and he was busy coaxing.

Liu Jingyuan and Liu Yan, who were discussing the affairs of the Northwest on the side, couldn't stand it anymore, and Liu Yan couldn't help but say, "Don't you know that the two of us are still in this small study?" It's like no one else. Chongyi, why didn't I know you were so thick-skinned? Forget it, let's discuss it for today, I still have ministers waiting over there. ”

Chen Wenhui has long been so ashamed that her face is flushed.

Liu Yan was afraid that Chen Wenhui would feel uncomfortable, so he said to Chen Wenhui: "Wenhui, the advice you just gave me is very good. I also have to consult with the ministers, and I have to consult with my father. You go back and draw up a charter. I'll summon you again in a few days. The last time you came to the palace, although my father gave you a reward, I didn't give you a reward. I don't think you're short of gold, silver, and jade. Simply, I'll give you a garden. I remember that there was a garden next to your county lord's mansion, which was a royal place. Originally, the garden of a minister confiscated by the imperial court has been abandoned there, and it was originally planned to be lived in the palace for the emperor's grandchildren in a few years. I'll just reward you now. This way, your county lord's mansion can be bigger. ”

Chen Wenhui was suddenly overjoyed, the land in the capital can't be bought with money, how good it is to have an extra piece of land.

Chen Wenhui hurriedly said: "It was originally for the emperors and grandchildren to use in the future, how can it be given to me now?" ”

Liu Yan smiled and said, "The emperors and grandsons have a place to live. There are many royal properties in the capital. I want to make a big move in the future, and I guess by then, there will be more places. You can accept it with peace of mind. It's just that the garden has been abandoned for a long time, and it has to spend a lot of money to rest. This can be a burden to others. It's not a problem with you. You have the masters and craftsmen of the black family in your hands, and you have money, and you will definitely be able to build a beautiful one. ”

Chen Wenhui hurriedly thanked her.

Liu Yan said: "Okay, Jing Yuan and I are going to continue to discuss the government with the ministers. Chongyi, you can follow me too. Wen Hui, you go to the back to say hello to the crown princess, and talk a few more words before leaving. You came here the day before yesterday, there were a lot of people, and the princess didn't talk to you a lot of private things, and she complained to me. ”

Chen Wenhui felt awkward for a while, this Chen Wenfeng, like they look like their sisters have a good relationship, what is this for? However, these words can no longer be said in front of Liu Yan. Chen Wenhui hurriedly came down and sent His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in a proper manner.

Zhao Chongyi reluctantly followed Liu Yan. (To be continued......)
