Chapter Seventy-Two: Wu Yuemeng, what does Sony mean by this?
"Xuan!" Wu Yue looked at the deacon eunuch, nodded, and said.
"Huh!" The deacon and eunuch responded respectfully, and then slowly withdrew.
A few minutes later, the palace door was gently pushed open, and Sonny, dressed in court clothes, short stature, and on crutches, walked in slowly.
Sonny came to the dragon case and was about to kneel down to say goodbye, but Wu Yue said with a gentle smile on his face, "Suo Zhongtang is old, and he is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and he is also the minister of my humerus of the Qing Dynasty. This kind of complicated court etiquette is not needed. ”
Hearing this, Sonny bowed slightly, bowed slightly towards Wu Yue, and after thanking him, he sat on the seat that Sandezi quickly moved.
After sitting down, Sony raised his hand and took out a book from his arms, and handed it to Wu Yue with both hands.
"Master, according to the report from the southeast coast, Taiwan's Zheng Chenggong accepted the surrender of the Dutch invaders and officially unified Taiwan." Sonny said softly when Sandezi took the fold and handed it to Wu Yue.
Wu Yue nodded, "This is a good thing, at least Taiwan is not controlled by foreigners." ”
Sonny frowned and shook his head, "Your Majesty, what you think is too simple. ”
Wu Yue looked puzzled, "Don't you want to let Taiwan return to the hands of the Chinese people?" It's the Han people who live there! The people under our rule are all out of the same family! ”
Sonny stood up and bowed slightly towards Wu Yue, "Master, that's not what the old slave meant. ”
"Zheng Chenggong is an old general of the former dynasty, and what they pursue is the Zhu Ming Dynasty. Moreover, Taiwan is an overseas island, and its daily necessities are basically provided by the inland, that is, the counties and prefectures on the southeast coast. ”
"Due to the different imperial courts pursued by the two places, every time Taiwanese merchant ships came to the coastal areas, they would receive a strict arrival from the imperial garrison. In this way, a local war was created. ”
Wu Yue frowned slightly and nodded, "What do you mean, send troops to attack Taiwan?" ”
Sonny shook his head, "The current treasury doesn't have much to spare due to the long period of exterminating the remnants of the previous dynasty and paying for the military expenses of the three feudatories. If there is a war with Taiwan at this moment, it will not last long. ”
When Wu Yue heard this, he stood up with a depressed expression, "I can't beat again." If you don't fight, the coastal states and counties will face the disaster of robbery, how can this be good? ”
Wu Yue said softly, slowly lowering his head, but the corner of his eyes was looking up and aiming at Sony.
At this moment, Sony, the corners of his mouth are slightly tilted upward, and there is a disgusting smile.
"Humph! Do you really think that the master doesn't know what to do? Let the soldiers live in the houses of the coastal dwellers, and establish secret communication with each other. As soon as the warning was prepared, the soldiers who were ambushed in the surrounding houses quickly attacked, dealing a heavy blow to the Zheng clan in Taiwan. ”
"As for the original inhabitants, they were paid by the imperial court and gradually migrated back to the interior."
Wu Yue said silently in his heart.
"Your Majesty, this matter needs to be considered in the long run, and the cabinet has not yet come up with a specific proposal."
"The meaning of the old slave is to let the emperor think about the affairs of the court all the time, and take your starting point to consider the problem as a whole and put forward suggestions for solving it. You are not in charge yet, so you can come up with any solution to it. If it's good, the cabinet will adopt it, and if it's not so appropriate, the old slave will also give advice, correct your thinking, and change it. So that you can be pro-government in the future and be able to make the most correct decision at a critical moment. As Sony spoke, he got up and slowly bowed down towards Wu Yue.
Wu Yue hurriedly stepped forward, helped him up with both hands, smiled reverently on his face, and said, "I understand that Suo Zhongtang is teaching me how to think about problems and how to think about them. ”
Sonny slowly straightened up and nodded slightly.
"Your Majesty, what Lord Wei handed over to you is the method of learning. And what the old slave taught you is the way to govern the country. ”
"Only by studying in the way of learning can we acquire orthodox knowledge. And the knowledge learned, to assist in governing the country, is the right way to make the country evergreen! You can't have one without the other! Sony slowly turned his face sideways, looked at Wu Yue, and said earnestly.
Wu Yue nodded vigorously, still with a smile on his face, "I have been taught." ”
Sony's clothes master looked like a teacher, and nodded.
"Your Majesty, in the days to come, the old slave will send some cabinet recitals from time to time to ask you how to solve them, so as to gradually deepen your ability to handle government affairs. The old slave hopes that you can think diligently and strive to achieve the ability to deal with problems alone in a short time. ”
Wu Yue heard Sony's words, and immediately raised his eyebrows, his head was like a rattle, and he shook his head vigorously.
"Suo Zhongtang, although I am eight years old, I am only six years old. Can you bear to let me shoulder such a heavy burden of court affairs at such a young age? As Wu Yue spoke, he helped Sonny to sit down, while he himself sat down by Leaning on Sonny's seat, looked at him sideways, and said with a wry smile.
"Your Majesty's words are wrong! Ambition is not old, no ambition is empty to live a hundred years. You are the crown prince and the honor of the Ninety-Five, both in terms of status and ability, you are far beyond ordinary people. Although the Qing Dynasty is calm on the surface, it is turbulent secretly. Time does not allow you to grow slowly. Sony arched his hand towards Wu Yue and said.
Wu Yue frowned, jumped up as if fleeing, his eyes were a little evasive, turned his back, and said, "Suo Zhongtang, what you said, I am still young and don't understand this. However, I will continue to study the methods you have taught to deal with government affairs. But you must not force me to do the government. I really don't want to live a hard life so early! ”
Wu Yue said, walking towards his own sleep.
"Your Majesty! Master! Sonny's voice was full of excitement at the moment.
Wu Yue sat down on top of the sleep and looked at Sony.
At this moment, Sony had already stood up and bowed down towards Wu Yue.
"Master, you are in the power of the country, and you must not have such thoughts. The old slave licked as the first auxiliary minister, but after all, he was old, and his physical condition was getting worse, so it was obvious that his days were numbered. Help you take care of this court, and the old slave can only last for so many years. ”
"The old slave hopes that you can grow up quickly in the past few years. With outstanding ability, he has surpassed the posture of the sages of the past dynasties, and is pro-government in the world. To comfort the fathers and fathers in heaven! Sonny said tremblingly, and his body trembled and fell to his knees.
Under the instruction of Wu Yue, Sandezi quickly came to Sony's side and helped him up.
Wu Yue pretended to be "extremely reluctant" and nodded.
"I will seize the time and study the law of governance and the way of governing the country. But I hope even more that you will live a long life. Wu Yue said respectfully, slowly stood up, and bowed slowly towards Sony.
"Master, by all means!" Sonny said loudly with his head on the ground, his body trembling.
