"Hmm!" Xiao Yuexian nodded and looked at Empress Dowager Xiao curiously.

"Hehe, Da Sui is over, the old woman can still see this clearly, Zou Changfeng can take care of the old feelings and retain a bloodline of His Majesty, the old woman is already very happy." Empress Dowager Xiao said with a smile indifferently.

"No wonder I didn't see the emperor, it turned out that Zou Changfeng had already taken over the power!" Xiao Yuexian said with a slight surprise.

"Don't listen to the nonsense outside, Yu'er is in charge of agriculture in Shuozhou, this is what he took the initiative to ask, it's rare that this child is self-aware, I'm very happy old woman!" Empress Dowager Xiao said with a little displeasure.

"The Moon Immortal has lost his word!" Xiao Yuexian hurriedly apologized.

"Yu'er can choose what she likes to do, and she can be fulfilled in the future, the old woman is very happy, you don't have to apologize." Empress Dowager Xiao waved her hand indifferently.

"Grandma, you can see it so openly!" Xiao Yuexian sighed.

"Hehe, what's so unsightly about this, the big beam of the year! That's not how it came over yet. Empress Dowager Xiao said with a smile.

"Grandma, you... What do you think of my father? Xiao Yuexian hesitated for a moment and asked.

This time, Empress Dowager Xiao did not answer immediately, but was silent for a long time, and then slowly lay on the sofa and said: "Your father is not a qualified emperor, or like the Xiao family in previous dynasties, at most he is on one side!" You can't dominate the world. ”

"This..."

"What? Don't believe grandma's words? Seeing Xiao Yuexian hesitating, Empress Dowager Xiao asked with a smile.

"Moon Immortal doesn't dare!" Xiao Yuexian lowered her head and said.

"This is the deficiency in the bones of our Xiao family! Congenital character flaws, not ruthless enough! Vision, mind, are not enough to dominate the world! Maybe this is the gentle hometown in the south, for the corruption of the emperor, even His Majesty back then, when he arrived in Jiangdu, he was unwilling to leave, and was willing to give up the world! Empress Dowager Xiao sighed.

"Grandma, you say that, it's too arbitrary, isn't it?" Xiao Yuexian said unconvinced.

"Heart-minded! Seeing! is the standard of an emperor's achievement. Look at your father, how many princes have been appointed? What's the difference between him and Xiang Yu? In the end, he was not destroyed by Liu Bang? Looking at talent? Whether it is Zou Changfeng, Li Yuan, or even Dou Jiande, they are far superior to your father! Empress Dowager Xiao said.

"Grandma said yes." Whether she accepts it or not, Xiao Yuexian has to pinch her nose and admit it. Then Empress Dowager Xiao didn't say anything more, and changed the topic to ask about some things in Jiangnan. It wasn't until an hour later that Xiao Yuexian retired and left.

Looking at the palatial palace, Xiao Yuexian couldn't help but admit in her heart that Empress Dowager Xiao was reasonable, compared to Jinyang, his father Yueyang's palace was more like a large courtyard.

The next day, Xiao Yuexian took people to the designated place to visit the goods sold in Jinyang.

Many things have been seen, but there are so many of them put together that not many people have really seen them.

This time, all the goods were placed directly in the courtyard, and all around were glassware, glass mirrors, glass bottles, cups, and bowls! It looks particularly dazzling in the sun.

In the middle of the courtyard there is a large pile of white paper like a hill, which seems to have an urge to write; Next to the paper are perfume and toilet water, and even if you don't open it, you can smell the fragrance that penetrates your heart.

On the table next to it were belts, purses, hats and shoes of all kinds, although to the nobles, these skins were nothing? But the workmanship has never been seen! For the aristocracy, what is important, nature is unique and the most important! Especially the various bags that the maid was carrying and carrying made Li Xiuning and Xiao Yuexian's eyes light up.

Because these bags are well made of nitrate, they are not only soft, but also have no peculiar smell, and are not inlaid with precious stones, but with various glass products, which look very beautiful.

The perfume that was used sparingly in the past is now also placed on a full table, with dozens of smells, so that Xiao Yuexian can't wait to move them all back to the room, even if it is ordinary mosquito coils and talcum powder, it is also a glass product, which has been used to it in Jinyang recently, but it is not so amazing, but it is listed as a necessary commodity.

Horizontal knife! Barrier knife! Placed in the corner, the first to be discovered and onlookers were the three countries of the peninsula, and the three parties all looked at each other with unkind expressions, eager to pick up arms and hack each other to death.

It didn't take long for others to discover the weapon, but they didn't expect Jinyang to list the weapon as a commodity.

Packed up the temptation of other goods, and visited the display of weapons.

The weapons were two kinds of knives, the long barrier knife and the short horizontal knife, and when they saw that the buyers were all around, the two soldiers did not hesitate, looked at each other, went to take two at random, and slashed at the stake wrapped in a straw mat on the side.

I saw the two of them slashing left and right, and the stake was broken into one by one, and then the two put down their weapons and motioned for everyone to check at will.

Li Xiuning, as a person who practices martial arts, has the best vision, of course, he can see the quality of these weapons at a glance, and secretly compares them, and is frustrated to find that they are better than his own weapons.

Even she sighed like this, not to mention the people of Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje, the envoys of the Three Kingdoms had their eyes lit up, and they couldn't wait to immediately move all the weapons they had placed back, just looking at the guards around them, so they had to give up this unrealistic idea wisely, swallow their saliva, and start asking about the price.

It's just a pity that today is just a show, and the price is discussed separately, because Zou Yu never thought about selling it at a price. For example, the three countries on the peninsula must be more expensive, Li Yuanwei is about the same, Dou Jiande and Xiao Mo are definitely cheaper.

"Why did the prime minister sell his weapons to others?" On the third floor behind the courtyard, through the glass window, Empress Dowager Xiao, who put down the binoculars, asked curiously.

Zou Yu naturally didn't want to talk about gunpowder, and explained with a slight smile: "Although weapons are important, but armor is more important, all we need at present is time, in two years, we will have at least more than 100,000 heavy armor soldiers, even if they hold weapons?" ”

"I think the prime minister cares more about balance, right? Balance the forces of all parties so that they cannot dominate alone! As soon as Empress Dowager Xiao heard Zou Yu say the time, she immediately understood.

"The Empress Dowager is wise! The ministers are not only balanced, but also give them motivation, and without enough motivation, they will not fight each other. Zou Yu said respectfully.

Let Empress Dowager Xiao come to watch, firstly, to let her relax, but also to show her strength, so as to dispel some thoughts that may appear in her heart. After all, it was not easy to settle Yang Yu, and Concubine Wei had no other ideas, if there was some disharmony within Jinyang, it would always be not good, let yourself be ruthless and clean up, and the loss would be her own strength.
