Jia Jiu and the eldest princess of Lanling, the eldest princess of Jiashan, the eldest princess of Changle and Lin Daiyu were in the back, but the emperor and the emperor in front already knew the content of their conversation.

As kings, how did the Emperor Taishang and the Emperor not know the importance of copper?

Not to mention the emperor, even the Emperor Taishang wanted to leave the things on the hunting ground and talk to the national teacher. But the problem is that this autumn hunt is nominally a routine event of the palace, but in fact it was held by the Emperor Taishang to celebrate his physical recovery. Others can walk away, but the Emperor himself will definitely not be able to leave.

On the one hand, the Emperor Taishang was glad in his heart that the national teacher did not follow this time, and on the other hand, he firmly stumped the emperor and did not allow the emperor to enter Beijing.

The emperor was so anxious that he had to send his henchmen to Yuqing Mountain.

Daomen had been prepared for this for a long time.

Not to mention the huge ships and fleets, it is impossible to hide the matter of those grains from the emperor, not to mention that the Daomen once took out so much grain to help the victims, and on the other hand, those copper ores must also be disposed of. It is true that it is used to make bronze objects, but for the Daomen, what is important is the stability of the country. According to the current situation, if the state of copper shortage in the imperial court continues, then the imperial court will never have enough copper to make copper plates, even if the imperial court in order to alleviate the economic pressure and adopt the method of appreciating the value of copper plates, stipulating that one or two taels of silver can only be exchanged for 800 wen, or less copper plates, it still cannot change the trend of national economic deterioration.

The easiest way to change this economic trend is to maintain the stability of the monetary system. That is, those copper ores, which are used to make copper plates. It's the best. And the manufacture of copper plates, that is the power of the imperial court, and it is also the work of the imperial court, Daomen will not know the law and break the law, even if there is enough profit, Daomen does not want to do it.

Daomen had long been ready to negotiate with the imperial court, and the object was very clear. Not the emperor, but the current emperor. It's just that there is a contradiction between the Emperor Taishang and the current emperor. It must also be coordinated. Because, even if the emperor is old, if he insists on doing something, he still has the ability to give it to the court. to bring trouble to the whole country.

Emperor Taishang and the emperor's envoys successively arrived at Yuqing Mountain. met Daokui and the national teacher respectively, and then met at the foot of Yuqing Mountain, and went back to see the Emperor Taishang and the current emperor together.

When Emperor Taishang heard that the emperor also sent people to Yuqing Mountain, and when he left, the two envoys met at the foot of the mountain, and couldn't help laughing: "In the end, it is an old fox who has lived for hundreds of years, and it is not at all a loss." ”

King Beijing, no. It should be said that the former King of Beijing, now Jing Beibodao: "Your Majesty." Aren't you angry? ”

Emperor Taishang said: "Those people from the Daomen, I already knew. ”

"Your Majesty?"

The Emperor sighed and said, "In the past, when I was in power, I was also annoyed by the disobedience of these guys. These guys simply don't listen to the tune. If my orders were good for the country and the people, they would have moved, but if my orders were not so authentic, they would have acted as if there was no such thing. At the beginning, I didn't know how to get angry in private for these guys. But now, having seen so many people and experienced so many things, I feel that those old foxes get along more happily. ”

"Your Majesty."

Jing Beibo was stunned, he didn't expect the Emperor Taishang to say this.

The Emperor Taishang smiled: "What? Surprised? ”

Jingbei Bo said dryly: "Yes." ”

In front of the Emperor Taishang, not to mention the young Jingbei Bo, the rest of the four kings and eight dukes, have always been honest. The founding fathers are more than the four kings and eight princes, but the four kings and eight princes can continue the glory of the ancestors, but it is because of the emperor, therefore, after receiving various blows and weakening, the four kings and eight princes returned to the emperor, hoping to use the shadow of the emperor to keep their glory and wealth.

Even Jing Beibo, who was easy to let go of military power before, has to give up his leisurely lifestyle in the past and choose all kinds of fancy ways to please the emperor.

As for the emperor's side, Jing Beibo no longer had any hope, thinking that he would still be able to please the emperor.

Jing Beibo's thoughts, the Emperor Taishang was clear, but the Emperor Taishang didn't care at all, but said: "When I was in power, I was not only angry that the Daomen were disobedient, but also angry with those families, relying on the glory of their own family that has not been 1,000 years but 800 years, relying on the glory they piled up with human lives under the iron hooves of foreign races, they couldn't see many things in the court, and only listened to part of my orders. At that time, I was angry, believing that my majesty was threatened. But to this day, I have to admit that I am a mortal, and I will not never make mistakes, and it is because of the existence of these families and Taoist sects that my mistakes are compressed within a certain range and do not endanger the operation of the entire court. ”

Jing Beibo was a little confused.

The imperial court has been jealous of the Daomen and the family for a long time, not only the Emperor Taishang, but also the Emperor Taizu, down to the present day, which king was not jealous of the Daomen and the family when he was in power?

In the name of Qing cultivators and outsiders, Daomen doesn't seem to care about glory and wealth at all, but in fact, just like this drought, when encountering things, Daomen's reaction is always one step faster than that of the imperial court, and even the people are facing Daomen, so that it is impossible for the imperial court to disclose what it is like to Daomen.

There are also families.

Jing Beibo yearns for the family, otherwise, he would not learn from the family and pose as a corporal of Lixian. But Jing Beibo himself knows that he has just learned to be a model, and he can't even draw a tiger and not become an anti-dog. Jing Beibo is very sure that his corporal Lixian is aimed at those unsatisfactory scholars, most of these people are from bad backgrounds, and they are burdened with the expectations of the entire family, so after these people take the throne, they need to change the fate of the entire family, and the most important thing to change their fate is money!

Even Jing Beibo himself knew very well that with Daqi's wealth, it would be very difficult for officials to support their own small family, let alone take on the responsibility of changing the fate of the entire family. Therefore. Those officials who were recommended by him will eventually become corrupt officials, and the difference is only that they are greedy and greedy.

But this is not the case with the family and the people in the Daomen.

Even Jing Beibo knows it very well. The people of the family and the Taoist sect can be said to have a deep hatred for corruption, believing that there is nothing in the world that does more harm to the country and the people than this. But even Jing Beibo himself knew that even he admired the officials from the family and the Daomen very much.

Jing Beibo said: "Your Majesty, you ...... Why did you ...... all of a sudden"

"Surprised?" Emperor Taishang smiled, "This is also why I chose to be the emperor today among so many sons." Because I have so many sons, they are all intriguing and supporting their subordinates. conniving at those people to give and take bribes. You must know that those officials who use their power for personal gain are actually digging into the corners of the royal wall. And only the emperor. Since he was a child, he kept a distance from those officials, but he became friendly with the people in the Taoist sect and was deeply influenced by the people in the Taoist sect. Only the people of the family and the Daomen stayed there, and the people below did not dare to go too far. ”

Jing Beibo blurted out: "But." That's also because the officials from the family and the Taoist sect don't need to support their families. ”

The Emperor listened. smiled: "That's right, the officials from the family and the Daomen really don't need to support their families. Because at the beginning of their careers, their families already had a very good life. However, the official position of the imperial court is for those people to support their families, is it for those people who are corrupt and bribery, and ** singers? The Emperor Taishang said coldly: "The children of the family use their own money, but those officials, they ** singers." But it was the money of the imperial court! ”

As soon as Jing Beibo wanted to open his mouth, he was stopped by the Emperor Taishang: "I know what you want to say." Don't forget. The children of the family are much tougher than those people, and the children of the family who like the wind and snow will not enter the court, they will use their own property, and they will also use their own money. On the contrary, those guys, including you, use the money of the imperial court. It's water-soluble, don't think I don't know. You don't have a lot of money, and there are only a few Huangzhuang, just with the idea in your house, let alone raising so many Qingke guests, even your group of concubines can't afford to raise them! ”

When Shui Rong heard this, he immediately knelt down.

But the Emperor ignored him.

He is already old, and it stands to reason that it should be time to enjoy it. Even the imperial court has a clear rule that the elderly over eighty years old can have no taboos.

But the Emperor is the Emperor after all. He knew very well that he was not one of these people who could have no taboos. If he is not the emperor, if he is just one of the common people, even if he is only from the family of officials, the emperor can indulge his temperament.

But the problem is, he's not.

The Emperor Taishang knew that in his own position, even if he was 90 years old and over 100 years old, he did not have this qualification without taboos. What's even more sad is that after staying in this position for a long time, he is also used to wearing a mask, and he is more accustomed to suppressing himself, and the Emperor Taishang has forgotten what his original self was like, and he doesn't know what his true heart desires are.

The Emperor Taishang said to himself in his heart: "Whatever about him." If I'm not in this position, if I'm not in this position, I'm annoying! Anyway, I used to be a supreme, and I have seen scenery that no one else has ever seen. ”

The matter of the envoy of the Emperor Taishang and his envoy meeting at the foot of Yuqing Mountain is also known to the current emperor.

The emperor was stunned. While he called someone to find out the emperor's reaction, he sat under the window in a daze.

There are a lot of things that he needs to think about.

After knowing the thoughts of Emperor Taishang and Jing Beibo, the emperor was stunned: "My father chose me, not because I am indisputable, but because I have always been good friends with Daomen?" ”

The emperor was also stupid.

The secret agent kneeling below did not dare to speak.

The emperor didn't speak, let alone let the secret agent get up, but after a long while, he heard the emperor whisper: "Daomen is really so powerful, even my father ...... it."

The Emperor's words were heard by the agents, but the man was like a ghost in the darkness, keeping his head bowed and not speaking, as if he had heard nothing.

The emperor waved his hand and asked the spy to step back, then he picked up the tea bowl and was stunned for a while, and then said, "Wang Jien, how many years have you been with me?" ”

Wang Jien, the head of the inner house, said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the old slave served His Majesty when he was eleven years old, and now it has been fifty years. ”

"Fifty years. I'm getting old, too. ”

The emperor sighed with emotion: "When I was young, several imperial brothers fought fiercely, if it weren't for your cleverness, I would have been like the nineteenth and twenty-first brothers, and I would have fallen victim to the struggle for power of several imperial brothers, and I was either burned to death or poisoned. ”

Wang Jien said: "Long live, this is what an old slave should do." ”

The emperor was stunned for a while, and then said: "You say, why did my father suddenly attack Jingbeibo, and why did he respect the Daomen and the family so much?" ”

Wang Jien said: "Your Majesty, the old slave only knows a little bit about this. Those families are extremely arrogant, even if they are the mother of a country, they don't care about it. Therefore, in the harem, except for Queen Yuan, there have always been very few family daughters. There are one or two people in the name of the family, and everyone knows that they are just people with the same surname, not serious children of the family. First, the second is that at the beginning, the rebellion of the kings was not driven by the family, but by the emerging eunuch families who pretended to be the family. ”

Wang Jien understands very well that the real family has persevered under the iron hooves of foreign races, and he knows the importance of order better than anyone else in this world. On the contrary, the new families, or the nouveau riche, will be so greedy for power and wealth.

The emperor said, "Yes." You say, why are those things so shallow-eyed? ”

Wang Jien bowed slightly and did not speak.

The emperor didn't continue to ask, but said, "I also know very well what the Jia family is about. I was curious about why the girl of the Jia family was accepted by the family and the Daomen so quickly. Their family is greedy and selfish. ”

Wang Jien said: "Perhaps, it's because the temperament and personality of the county lord Jia are similar to those in the Daomen." Light on money, light on rights, and heavy on the people's livelihood. ”

"yes." The emperor said, "Those Zhuangzi before, Changle asked for it, and he gave it." Salt and fertilizer recipes, he didn't keep them in his hands, and even because their Jia family couldn't exert the energy of salt and fertilizer, they said that they would send it out. It's ridiculous that I thought he had other thoughts at that time, so I was on guard, but I didn't want to push such a person away. ”

"Hooray, why do you have to do that?"

The emperor said: "I am not reconciled. (To be continued.) )
