Han An put away his smile and said, "Lord Si Kou, this time I did not hesitate to risk my life, but in order to restore the glory of my father's lineage. At the beginning, when the crown prince was infant, my father was hostage in Yingdu, and he was obstructed by Han Jiao's faction and was not allowed to return to China. This allowed Han Jishun to ascend to the throne. Now that it's been twenty-three years, it's our turn to be the king. ”
Han Xiu sighed, what he was most worried about was that it had happened--- the descendants of Gongzi Jise still coveted the throne. But then again, after all, some of the thrones of the current King Han are not very open. Childe Jise is timid and cautious, at most he uses wine to drown his sorrows and accept the established facts. But his descendants are not necessarily, because of the failure of the prince Jise to compete for the throne, Jise's children suddenly changed from nobles to commoners. Not many people can accept this contrast.
"Alas! Son! It's not more than 20 years ago. Now that the foundation of King Han is stable, and he has won a series of great victories, the people have returned to their hearts, and no Korean will support you. ”
"I know what you're talking about, but if my father sits in Han Ji's position, maybe he'll do better than him. Don't forget that the shame of Yique is also what he brought to South Korea. are also descendants of the Han family, why can they enjoy glory and wealth, and we can only be willing to be commoners?! Han An said indignantly.
Han Xiu patiently enlightened and said, "The shame of the past has been washed away. What's more, even if your father and son can do better than King Han's father and son, so what, now the whole of Korea regards King Han's line as orthodox, this is God's will! Providence cannot be violated, and it cannot be changed by manpower. ”
Han An didn't get angry when he heard this, but said disapprerovingly: "I also know that this matter is very difficult, the so-called success and defeat, I don't expect to regain the throne so quickly." I only hope that I can retain some power in Korea, and if the king of Han is unpopular and complains, my descendants can replace him. ”
Han Xiu showed a hesitant look, he didn't quite believe what Han An had just said. Even if he is telling the truth, once he agrees, he is hiding a bomb for South Korea. No one knows when this bomb will explode. The struggle for the throne is the most ruthless and the most damaging to the country. On the one hand, Han Xiu didn't want to lose the favor of the king, and on the other hand, he wanted to repay the kindness, and he was extremely embarrassed for a while.
Han An also saw the other party's embarrassment, so he changed his words and said: "Master Si Kou doesn't have to be embarrassed, I also said that I didn't come to Xinzheng to rebel, but to keep my wealth." If King Han is not virtuous, why not replace him?! Does Lord Si Kou really bear to let our vein wander to the people and not sacrifice to our ancestors? ”
Han Xiu sighed deeply, and finally was swayed by his feelings, and said, "Childe, can you swear?" In this life and this life, as long as the king of Han does not make big mistakes, as long as the four seas in Korea are peaceful, you must not have any disobedience. ”
Han Anxin was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Today, I, Han An, swear to the sky, in this life and this life, as long as Korea is not chaotic and the monarch is wise, I will never covet the throne at all, if I violate this oath, I will die under the rebellion!" That's okay, right? ”
Han Xiu nodded and said, "Childe, then I will believe in you, which can be regarded as repaying Ling Zun for saving his life." There aren't many vacant positions in the imperial court now, and it's hard for me to recommend you to obvious positions. Why don't you start with Lang Zhong or the priest (note: the low-level official in charge of the prison trial)? ”
"Lang Zhong?" Han An muttered, although the position of Xin Dao is low and hard, but he is the person responsible for guarding the palace, and once he is outstanding, he can easily be promoted. As for the officials, the power is slightly greater than that of Langzhong, and it is also very temperable.
"Good! Let's start with Langzhong! ”
Han An thought about it, and still felt that he could choose Lang Zhong so that he could befriend the powerful. Most of the Korean Lang Zhong were the children recommended by the ministers of the DPRK and China, and were responsible for guarding the royal palace. Of course, there is another type of langzhong, who is the king's confidant and is responsible for giving advice.
"Okay, I'll arrange it later. Childe has just come to Xinzheng, but does he have a place to stay? Han Xiu asked with concern.
Han An smiled slightly and replied, "Stay in the inn for the time being."
"O inn! It's not a long-term solution either. Why don't you do it? I asked the housekeeper to find a house for Gongzi near the royal city, so that it would be more convenient to defend the palace in the future. ”
"Then it's going to be a hassle for Lord Sikou." Han An made a gesture.
In the southwest horse market, Ji Miao is selling war horses with her maid Xiaohe.
Fortunately, the two paid for the room in advance, otherwise they would have been kicked out of the door because they had no money. However, the current situation is a little better. Things like hostas, jade bracelets, and jade pendants are also very valuable and can be exchanged for money, but because they were sent by Ji Miao's mother, Ji Miao was reluctant to go out, and in order to raise money for the journey back, Ji Miao had to choose to sell horses.
Fortunately, the war horse is just a military horse stolen by the two of them when they left the palace, and it will not be too distressing to sell it. In addition, Ji Miao and the maid are both light and libi, and it is not a problem for the two to ride a horse together, it is a big deal to cherish the horsepower and travel dozens of miles every day.
After some bargaining, a well-trained war horse turned into precipitated gold in the blink of an eye. With the money, Ji Miao purchased Xinzheng's new paper and roasted tea, and then went out of the city to the north proudly. It's just that she doesn't know now that Xinzheng, which was originally just a play, will become her last place to stay.
In the Prince's Mansion, the Prince Ran was happily listening to the butler's report.
As soon as the paper was launched, the demand immediately outstripped supply. Even though the price has risen to the outrageous price of fifteen cents a piece of paper, those businessmen and officials who feel the convenience of paper still spend money on the mission. In the black market, the price of a piece of paper has been speculated to 30 wen a piece, and there is still no market.
"Uncle Hua, I'll take my edict to Hanyi later, and ask them to work overtime to make another batch of paper. I want the whole world to know that we have such a weapon in Xinzheng. The prince said in high spirits.
Now the paper mill has more manpower and can produce 100,000 sheets of paper per day, but there is still a bit of a shortage of supply. Prince Ran knows very well that now that the paper has just been launched, the price is naturally high. When you buy your own paper all day long, the price will drop, and the ideal price is five cents. Even so, because the cost of paper is really low, the paper mill can make 400,000 yuan a day at that time, which is really profitable.
The crown prince had already discussed with King Han that half of the money from selling paper would be used to enrich the treasury and half would be used to develop the army. In Tai Ziran's view, there are not many soldiers, but fine. Referring to the successful experience of later generations, the prince intends to raise the treatment of soldiers, so that they have no worries when they go to the battlefield. But it should not be too high, so as not to arouse the hatred of the scholarly class. This degree needs to be mastered.
At present, the production of cement is also being carried out in an orderly manner, and as soon as the busy farming time is over, the prince plans to recruit the common people to repair the streets in Xinzheng City. Presumably, everyone who comes to Xinzheng will be surprised. South Korea's cement will also be as famous as paper, and after the cement becomes famous, the prince will send people to gradually build the road from Xinzheng to various fortresses, so that in the future, whether it is the use of troops or the transmission of military information, the speed will be much faster.
