Chapter 272: Family Affairs, State Affairs
readx;
The students of the Royal Academy were too enthusiastic, and Hu Hai wanted to use these enthusiastic young people to do the work of reporting the academy, so he hit it off, but it was not until the sun went down that he had to say goodbye to the students who had already surrounded the huge school field. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The reverence these students have for Hu Hai is undoubtedly from the bottom of their hearts. There were too many people, and the professors of the Royal Academy were sweating profusely to maintain order but to no avail, but the result was that after Hu Hai's short two sentences, the students consciously maintained order.
Although there was a commotion and a brief period of chaos, fortunately, there was not the slightest abnormality as Long Hong had been fearing.
By the time Hu Hai said goodbye to Kong Kun and Xian'er and returned to Xianyang Palace, it was already the beginning of the lanterns.
As soon as he walked outside the emperor's study, Hu Hai saw two petite figures from a distance, turning around and fleeing the moment he saw his appearance. couldn't help but get angry, and shouted: "Stop." ”
The two petite figures heard Hu Hai's loud shout, as if they had been immobilized, and immediately stood still.
"Come back to me." Hu Hai was angry and funny, and said lightly in a slow voice.
The two figures with their backs to Hu Hai hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned around, and walked towards Hu Hai, who was standing at the door of the emperor's study, one after the other.
Stay close, who is not Ying Zhen and who is serving Ying Zhen Cui Niang in the East Palace?
Hu Hai looked behind him, and Long Hong and the others didn't know when they had disappeared like ghosts. Obviously, they had already seen who these two sneaky people were waiting outside the emperor's study.
Ying Zhen walked three steps in front of Hu Hai and stopped, hanging his head and staring at his toes, silent. Cui Niang, who was following Ying Zhen, couldn't wait to shrink her body to the limit, so that she could hide behind Ying Zhen and block Hu Hai's eyes.
Both girls seem to have forgotten the most basic etiquette for meeting the emperor, but fortunately, Hu Hai didn't care about it at all.
Hu Hai stared at Ying Zhen, who was silent, and swept his gaze to Cui Niang, who was shrinking behind Ying Zhen.
With the flick of a finger, it has been ten years since he ascended the throne.
Start with the killing of Zhao Gao on the Eastern Patrol Road. The two daughters, Lu Zhu and Cui Niang, followed Hu Hai. Although the identities and status of the two did not play a big role in the killing of Zhao Gao, when Hu Hai was isolated, the two girls were always by his side. followed Hu Hai through the most difficult period of the initial crossing.
Subsequently, with Hu Hai's official entry into Daqin, Yu Tiandou, Yu courtiers, and the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, plus Concubine Li, Yu Ji, and Li Yan entered the palace successively, although both women were promoted to female officials in Xianyang Palace, but Hu Hai inevitably had some negligence for the two daughters under the many things.
So much so that it was originally rumored that the two daughters were going to enter the emperor's harem. But it completely disappeared after Li Yanfeng.
Concubine Li was assassinated, and the two daughters followed Concubine Li's bedroom; That's two years; Then Ying Zhen controlled the Black Ice Platform and moved into the East Palace, and after Hu Hai's approval, Cui Niang was transferred to the East Hall as a female official, responsible for Ying Zhen's daily life.
Every day, Hu Hai is in a hurry, compared to the green beads in Concubine Li's bedroom. In the east hall on the side of the emperor's study, Hu Hai is the least set foot.
In ten years, the maids in Xianyang Palace have changed again and again, and the original two cardamom girls have become old girls who can't get married.
seemed to feel Hu Hai's eyes, but Cui Niang, who was hiding behind Ying Zhen, shrank in again.
Alas. Hu Hai withdrew his eyes and sighed in his heart.
"Cui Niang, you go back to the east hall first."
Although I know that such a sentence will cause harm to Cui Niang. But Hu Hai was still ruthless and said softly.
"Whoa!"
Cui Niang couldn't help but tremble when she heard Hu Hai's words, and with a slight trill, she lowered her head and retreated away.
Hu Hai could feel the deep sorrow in her heart at the moment. But what to say to Ying Zhen next. But it's best not to let Cui Niang hear it, otherwise I'm really afraid that I'll be ashamed to death.
"Brother ...... Emperor"
Yingzhen didn't expect Hu Hai to be so ruthless to Cui Niang, it was rare to see Cui Niang a few times a year, but as soon as they met, Cui Niang was driven away like someone else.
The same fate makes Ying Zhen have a different kind of closeness to Cui Niang, a woman who has a humble background but never asks for anything. In the past few years, in addition to the massive letters that seem to never be able to deal with Yingzhen in the east hall. There is only Cui Niang.
"Zhen'er, I have my own arrangements for Cui Niang's affairs. Let's talk about you today...... My business. ”
Hu Hai interrupted Yingzhen's words, but when talking about you and me, there was a sudden pause.
What about you and me?
Ying Zhen was stunned when he heard Hu Hai say this.
I didn't use me, but you and me, did the royal brother know something?
Ying Zhen felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest for a moment, and her head was blank.
Hu Hai is actually not much better than Ying Zhen at this time. After all, he had always treated Ying Zhen like a sister before, but after the incident at the Xianyang Grand Theater, the relationship between the two quietly changed slightly. What's more, after discovering Yingzhen's feelings for him, Hu Hai was stunned to find that he was not too resistant, and even had some expectations.
"You've grown up. It's just that some things are good to take your time? You don't have to jump yourself too tightly, isn't there still a royal brother? You know, there is nothing in this world that can be difficult to hold the royal brother, right? ”
"Hmm!"
"Don't stay in the East Hall on weekdays, the Black Ice Platform doesn't mean that it won't operate without you, the hall master, right? It's good to leave some things to the people below. ”
"Hmm!"
"If it's okay, take Cui Niang to the Xianyang Grand Theater......"
The unnutritious dialogue between Hu Hai and Ying Zhen came to an abrupt end here. Hu Hai thought about how he mentioned this stubble, wasn't he embarrassing Yingzhen?
And Ying Zhen, who was still unaware, didn't have anything, and after Hu Hai said that the Xianyang Grand Theater stopped abruptly, she instantly thought of everything that happened to her and Hu Hai in the carriage and in the theater that day, and she was so embarrassed that she almost wanted to find a hole to drill down.
A hint of ambiguity began to fill a pair of unrelated men and women.
"Well, you know me...... What do you mean...... Right? I still have government affairs to deal with, so I'll go first. ”
Hu Hai hurriedly dropped this sentence and fled in embarrassment.
"Poof!"
Seeing His Majesty the Great Qin Holy Son of Heaven Emperor so embarrassed for the first time that everything in the world was in his chest, Ying Zhen finally couldn't help laughing.
Hearing Yingzhen's laughter, Hu Hai stumbled and almost tripped over the threshold in the study, Hu Hai scolded in his heart, but he didn't turn back but ran faster.
Ying Zhen's crisp laughter resounded in the emperor's study.
It was probably the most cheerful laugh she'd had in years.
……
On the sixth day of the fifth month of the tenth year of the second century, Hu Hai issued an edict through the Zongzheng Mansion to officially canonize the female official Cui Niang of the East Palace and the female official of the Lifei Palace Lu Zhu as the nine concubines from the four products; And the east hall was renamed Zhaohua Palace and given to Princess Yingzhen of Zhaohua.
has to be crowned nine concubines, and the bitter marquis of Cui Niang and Luzhu for nearly ten years has finally blossomed and borne fruit.
……
On May 16, the 10th year of the Second Dynasty, the Royal Academy was officially reported to the Cabinet Office by the Royal Academy, and was established in the Royal Academy with the approval of the Holy Emperor Hu Hai.
On May 18, the first issue of the tabloid newspaper of the Royal Newspaper House appeared in the streets and alleys of Xianyang City. However, the first issue of the Royal Newspaper was full of polo and football news.
On May 20, Hu Hai, the Son of Heaven, issued an edict, and the 200,000 soldiers of the Great Qin Construction Corps went to Jibei, Dongjun, Jiujiang, and Huiji counties to start the construction of dams on the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River.
For these two great river dams, which are related to the Chinese people for thousands of generations, thousands of craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry spent five years and traveled nearly 10,000 miles, and finally completed the first complete hydrological and topographic mapping and survey of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River in February of the tenth year of the Second Dynasty.
Although the wind and rain have been smooth in recent years, Hu Hai did not dare to take it lightly, because of this, so after dispatching 200,000 soldiers of the construction corps, Hu Hai issued an edict for the first time ten years after ascending the throne to recruit a full 400,000 people to join the army of building embankments.
400,000 people plus 200,000 soldiers, 600,000 people, maybe a lot. But scattered on the banks of the two great rivers that stretch for thousands of miles, there are not necessarily many at all.
These two dikes are also the first and largest large-scale conscription of the people of Daqin to serve in labor in the ten years since Hu Hai ascended the throne. He attached more importance to these two dams than to Li Xinxi's expedition. It may be an exaggeration to say that the whole country is doing its best, but it is not an exaggeration.
At the same time, dozens of counties and counties in the east of the Great Qin River, Jiangnan, Central Plains, and Guanzhong began to dredge the canal vigorously at the same time under the supervision of officials of the Ministry of Industry.
The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in later generations has been outlined by Huhai, and the Ministry of Industry and Shangfang craftsmen have begun to design and prepare non-stop. It's just that this canal will obviously not be dug by the Chinese people in this life.
In the past two years, the southern expeditionary armies of Feng Zheng and Yu Zi have successively transported back more than 200,000 natives from the southeast. Especially during the Yuzi period, the huge fleet of hundreds of warships was considered to have visited all the peninsulas in Central and South China, including the Malay Archipelago and the Philippine Islands, more than 2,000 years in advance.
It won't be long before Feng Zheng's Guilin army enters Burma, and the Great Qin South China Sea Fleet can enter the Indian Ocean through the Strait of Malacca.
In addition to plundering the indigenous people back to Daqin, tens of thousands of people in the two counties of Bashu had also arrived near the Red River Estuary Delta under the escort of the Guilin army and began to settle down a year ago, and gradually began to migrate westward with the footsteps of Feng's Guilin army.
In the matter of relocating people to garrison Xindi, it stands to reason that the Baiyue barbarians are actually the most adaptable to the humid and hot climate of the Indochina Peninsula recently. However, Hu Hai and the Cabinet Office have a high degree of unanimity, that is, the non-Lao Qin clan will not move.
