Palace

Wen Wen entered the palace early in the morning to check the flower arrangement in the palace, and after seeing that everything was fine, he went to the emperor's imperial study and discussed the matter of the Longevity Festival with the emperor and the ministers.

Emperor: "I received news today that the envoys of the four countries are about to enter the capital!" Arrived in the capital on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Are the stations for the emissaries ready? ”

Honglu Siqing immediately said: "Back to the emperor, the post station is ready!" The waiting servants and the chefs who can cook dishes from all over the world have been arranged! The guards of the inn have also been selected! When the envoys from various countries arrive, they will definitely feel at home!"

The emperor nodded, and then looked at the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses: "During the time when the envoys of various countries are in the capital, the security of the capital must be done well!" There must be no theft! There are also places such as the Armament Division to arrange more guards and strengthen patrols! ”

Last time on the Wanshou Festival, the envoy of the Beiming Kingdom came to the capital, went to the street to buy things, and was stolen by a thief in broad daylight!

This kind of thing is usually normal, and at the end of the year, those beggars, as well as robbers, thieves, bandits, etc., are more active.

Everyone has to look for silver for the New Year.

This kind of thing is the same in every country!

Where there are no thieves, no robbers, no robbers, no bandits?

The bad thing is that the thief is too blind, and the emperor would rather he steal his own purse, not the purse of the envoys of other countries!

At the state banquet on the National Birthday Festival, in front of the envoys of various countries, the envoys of the Beiming Kingdom from time to time sarcastically ridiculed the good customs of the people of Nalan and the unity of the people, and the thieves specially looked for people from other countries to steal, not to steal the purses of the natives.

Then he said that unlike their Beiming Kingdom, they haven't seen a thief for many years, so they will be careless!

What do you say that the people of Beiming live and work in peace and contentment, have enough food and clothing, and don't need to be thieves at all! What warehouse really knows etiquette, food and clothing are enough to know honor and disgrace! Only when the people are poor and desperate will they become thieves!

It simply made the emperor so angry that he was about to burst his blood vessels!

With such a face, the emperor will definitely not be able to afford to lose it!

Sima Shang, the soldiers and horses of the five cities, arched his hand and replied: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the lower officials have already arranged it!" For twelve hours, soldiers patrol each place. ”

Where would he dare to let the thief appear again!

Otherwise, his black gauze hat will be gone!

What has he been for half a year? Specializing in catching thieves? Robbers, if you catch them, you won't let go? Punish them for hard labor? They do the hardest, most tiring, dirtiest work!

Basically, they are punished to collect the night incense, and then deal with the night incense? Turn into fertilizer and fertilize the royal rice fields!

Now for two months in a row in the whole capital? There is no news from the yamen in various places that the thief has been caught!

The emperor looked at the Ministry of Rites again: "Those musicians? In the near future, you must pay attention to your diet, so that you don't have any problems with your body and can't go out of the game. ”

Lile is the face of a country.

Nalan is also a big country of etiquette, and it is stronger than other countries in this regard.

The song and dance performance of the state banquet, the emperor has already seen it? Very good? It is shocking, and it is estimated that it can also anger the envoy of Shikoku!

But I'm worried that something will go wrong with the musicians and dancers.

After all, Nalan is not without the meticulous work of other countries!

When the time comes, give some laxatives to the musicians and dancers, and then it will be troublesome.

Although there is a backup, the candidate for the backup is naturally not the best candidate.

"Yes! Wechen must tell you to be good! The Ministry of Rites replied respectfully.

The emperor looked at Nuan and Nalan Jinnian again? He was still more relieved that the two of them were doing things: "The soldiers have all rehearsed, right?" ”

Warmth: "Back to the emperor, everything is ready!" ”

The emperor was relieved when he heard it? In fact, the emperor has personally confirmed everything? After reading it, I just can't help but worry.

In the past two years, their Nalan country has been in the limelight? The emperor wants to show off well in the four kingdoms! Let the envoys of various countries hold back their grievances.

Can you be provoked by Shikoku? Disgusting myself!

And this should be his last Hallolive? The emperor hopes for a happy ending.

ended his imperial career, and since then he has traveled all over the world, tasted other people's delicacies, seen all the splendid mountains and rivers, spent money like earth, and wandered the world.......

At this time, Gonggong Li walked in: "Your Majesty, Lord Wen and General Wang ask to meet!" ”

The emperor straightened his waist when he heard this, but he was back!

"Xuan!"

The emperor waved his hand to the courtiers in the imperial study room again: "Okay, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone goes back to the house to accompany the family, there is a palace banquet tonight, everyone bring their families to participate!" ”

Several ministers stood up and took their leave.

The emperor said to Nuan and Nalan Jinnian: "The county lord of Hui'an and the seventeenth emperor brother stay!" ”

After the ministers all came out of the imperial study, Wen Chun and Wang Xiao walked in and saluted: "Xiaguan/last general, see the emperor!" King Jin, the lord of Hui'an. ”

The emperor smiled and said, "The two Aiqing are flat!" ”

The emperor pointed to the two circle chairs: "It's been hard all the way, sit down and talk back!" ”

"Emperor Xie!"

The two sat down.

Gonggong Li served tea to the two of them with interest.

After the emperor waited for them to sit down, he couldn't wait to ask, "Wen Aiqing, how are the people of the two cities pacified?" ”

Wen Chun arched his hand: "Back to the emperor, it's basically appeased!" The supplies and silver sent by the imperial court have arrived! At the end of the year, the snow covered the mountain, and many people couldn't stand it anymore and went down to their original homes. We have given two taels of silver to each of our families. The supplies were also distributed to the people. ”

The emperor nodded and looked at Wang Xiao: "Among those people, are there any soldiers from the Tanglin Kingdom who are there to plot a rebellion?" ”

Wang Xiao: "There was a time when people protested against riots, and it was quickly resolved!" The rioters were put in jail! There will definitely be a mixture of the fine works of the Tanglin Kingdom among those people, this is inevitable! There may be many protests in a short period of time! But as long as the policy of the imperial court is good and the people's hearts are calmed, these things will be less! ”

Those people said that they were abandoned by the Tanglin Kingdom, and they knew it in their hearts.

And this matter is the incompetence of the lord of the Tanglin Kingdom, which will lead to their displacement.

Of course, they may not understand this truth, and if someone instigates it, they feel that Nalan Country is at fault.

But generally speaking, the people really don't have much feeling about who is the emperor.

All they need to do is live and work in peace and contentment.

As long as the imperial court has a way to let them live and work in peace and contentment, with enough food and clothing, over time, it will be the will of the people.

But this is also a very long process, and there is no hurry.

So riots have been indispensable in the past year or two.

The emperor looked at a few people: "Do you have any good ways to calm the people's hearts as soon as possible?" ”

It's not the first time that Nalan has received cities from other countries, but to this day, there are still riots in those cities.

Even if the imperial court gave a lot of money and materials to help the people there.

But because someone is inciting behind the scenes, the effect is not great.
