Chapter 178: Shang Fang's Sword
As if hearing this, she didn't know whether she was happy or worried, but she still bit her lip lightly, and said with a look of embarrassment: "Official, you know me, as long as I can get along with you day and night, I don't care about my status at all, as long as I can wait for you by your side, my wish will be fulfilled." ”
"But Princess Qingyuan's side is a royal golden branch and jade leaf, you still have to think about it yourself, don't be cold to the princess's infatuation!"
Li Yi shook his head with a wry smile, sighed and said, "Alas! It's like! What do you want me to say about you, we don't know how long we will stay in Yunnan, and Princess Qingyuan is not too young to see it, so how can she wait for a long time? ”
"As a royal child, I am afraid that she will not be able to make decisions herself. So when it comes to the princess's side, the eight characters haven't been skimmed yet! Why do we have to tie our hands and feet? ”
"And I don't have any lofty thoughts about the princess at all, it's just wishful thinking on her part."
"Now that you're pregnant, remember to rest a lot so you don't have to worry about these trivial things. Thinking too much about my things these days is not good for our children! You'd better go back to the house and rest! ”
"Also, you ask Caifeng and the others to clean up the west wing, and when the knife girl finishes the injection, you arrange the knife girl to live in the wing, and when I have time, I will go and talk to her again. After all, she is still a girl who has not passed through the door, and it is not a long way to live in our house! ”
As if she had no choice but to nod, she instructed that the meal was ready, and let Li Yi go to eat first while it was hot, and then she turned around and went back to the bedroom.
After eating, Li Yi returned to the study, and was about to take out the letters of King Yue and Li Pian to read, but there was a gentle knock outside the door, and then he heard Guo Xiaoshuang report loudly: "Qiqi Marshal, Yuan Huai, the envoy of the Great Righteous Ning Kingdom, Xun Zaluo asks to see." They were now waiting outside the council chamber, not knowing if the marshal would see him or not. ”
Li Yi couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly, these two guys, the office hours for the afternoon haven't arrived yet, and it seems that they can't wait.
He was in danger in the territory of Dayi Ningguo, almost lost his life in the barren mountain, and was personally chased and killed by their national teacher, no matter how it is said that Dayi Ningguo is also to blame.
Although Yunnan is small and weak, it does not pose any threat to the Great Yi Ning Kingdom, but if he turns his face with them because of this, and no longer supports and echoes their actions, this is something that Yang Huaiying never wants to see.
In order to make up for this big mistake, they sent two high-level officials at once and properly returned the bodies of the unfortunate soldiers, with the purpose of apologizing to themselves and mending the rift between the two sides!
Although this incident did not directly cause fatal injury to himself, its nature was extremely bad, and I don't know what kind of efforts Yang Huaiying intends to make to carry out the aftermath work.
If the big things that are understated are reduced to small things, and the small things are turned into nothing, and if severe sanctions are not taken against the old man of Uli, he will never agree.
The lives of the four pro-soldiers can't be lost in vain, otherwise, can the other generals and pro-soldiers shudder when they see this situation.
Moreover, now it is Yunnan that takes the initiative, and the country of Dayi Ning has its own needs, and Yunnan has no place to rely on them. Now that the Pingyang Pass has been basically built, as long as Yunnan holds this pass, the troops will come to block it, and the water will cover it, and it will be difficult to break through it even if he has thousands of troops and horses.
Besides, even if Yang Huaiying is given two more courages, he will not dare to make a strong enemy again, one Tonghai is enough for him, if Yunnan and Tonghai cooperate, how long can the Dayi Ning Kingdom of the two enemies last!
Now that their envoy has come, no matter what they say, they can't immediately give them a good look, and at least let them know that the impact of this serious incident is not so simple to be eliminated.
Thinking of this, Li Yi walked out of the study, came to the outside of the living room, and called Guo Xiaoshuang and instructed: "Xiaoshuang, you go to the council hall and tell the envoy of Dayi Ningguo that Ben Shuai has been tired recently and is taking a nap, let them wait in the council hall for a while, and wait until I wake up." ”
Guo Xiaoshuang hesitated slightly, and asked in a hateful whisper: "Dashuai, they tried in vain to harm Dashuai, and we also killed four brothers because of this." Since they are unkind, and we are unjust, we should simply drive them all back. To tell you the truth, I even have the heart to kill them. ”
Li Yi smiled slightly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "How can the matter between these two countries be so nonsense, if it is not handled properly and causes the disaster of the sword soldiers, it will be ruined." Now is not the time for you to worry about it, so let's hurry up and arrange it! ”
Guo Xiaoshuang muttered and agreed, and went down listlessly.
After sending Guo Xiaoshuang away, Li Yi immediately took out the letter from King Yue and read it carefully.
In the letter, Hongchang, the king of Yue, informed Li Yi in advance of the great news that the emperor had privately approved the performance of Li Yi's reform experiment in Yunnan proposed to the imperial court.
After the court discussion, since most of the officials who could speak had already received the benefits of Yunnan, they did not care about Yunnan's dispensability.
Coupled with the vigorous persuasion of the prime minister, Zhongshu Ling, Tongping Zhangshi Zhao Zhen, the right servant and the left capital Yushi Wang Xuan, and the Zhongshu Sheren Wang Xu, the emperor has initially agreed to the proposal of Yunnan's reform.
Moreover, in order to enable himself to do a good job of reform with ease and ensure that various reform measures can be effectively implemented, Liu Yan issued a decree to expand the scope of authority of the Yunnan Xuanfu envoy, so that Li Yi has the power to appoint and dismiss officials at all levels and to establish and abolish government organs at any time within Yunnan.
This is something Li Yi never dreamed of. With this sword, Yunnan's various reforms in the future will encounter much less resistance.
In addition, King Yue changed the topic and mentioned the issue of the establishment of the Generalissimo's Palace.
Although in order to avoid being suspicious of the emperor, King Yue did not clearly oppose it, but he was angry in private about the behavior of King Hongdu of Qin who arbitrarily recruited scoundrels to fill the guards, bullied men and women, swaggered through the market, and harassed the houses in the market.
He believes that it is foolish to use a large number of ruffians to serve as the guards of the capital. This irresponsible behavior not only seriously damaged the interests of the common people, but also greatly affected the reputation of the imperial court.
As a prince, if he does not act indiscriminately and ignores the interests of the people, it will inevitably make the upward and downward effects of the upper and lower levels, the morality of the officials and courtiers will be degraded, the people's will will deviate, and the common people will inevitably fall into dire straits, and over time, it will bring about a situation that is difficult to control.
