Chapter 143: Wang Guifei and the Queen Mother
The two women can be said to have their own thoughts in the court. Each has his own opinion, time is passing day by day, the ministers have new political discussions playing every day, the emperor is not disturbed by the two women in the court, handling state affairs, or dutiful, relatively reasonable, good for the country and the people.
The queen mother's intention to enter the court is to let the ministers play for the country and the people, and the good political discussions can be smoothly implemented in the country with the emperor's approval, so as to promote the strength of the country and the well-being of the people, and the effect has been achieved for a while.
Wang Guifei has the queen mother in the court to confront her, for a while can no longer control the government, can no longer control the courtiers, the task given by the Han Dynasty has also stalled, this is not good, I can't afford to drag it with the queen mother, the flying pigeon from the Han Dynasty has arrived again, ask the progress of Wang Guifei, whether you are sure that you can peacefully evolve the ancient kingdom of Loulan.
Wang Guifei is a woman who does not admit defeat, because this is all her bargaining chips, and it is the only way for her to keep her power, so of course she will return to the Han Dynasty, and she will complete the evolution of the ancient kingdom of Loulan as soon as possible, and evolve into the county of the Han Dynasty.
For a while, I thought of the emperor's kindness, yes, it has to be the emperor, I must first fight for the emperor and get the emperor's full support.
Wang Guifei had an idea, she didn't care about too much etiquette, she couldn't wait, and immediately accompanied by her subordinates, she went out of her palace and went straight to the imperial study, in order to get the emperor's patronage at night.
With the arrival of the emperor, the imperial dining room was full of tables, Wang Guifei began the exchange of words, began to sensationalize and express the suffering and difficulties of this woman from the Han Dynasty, and constantly expressed that she is now the concubine of the ancient country of Loulan, and everything will definitely start from the interests of the ancient country of Loulan, and it is reasonable to have unique views on the political discussions of the court, but the starting point is different, and the views are different.
Of course, the emperor Anshan could only listen, could only persuade him, and appease him, which achieved the goal of Wang Guifei and got Anshan's tolerance.
The night passed quickly, and the early dynasty began again, and Wang Guifei was going to express her political opinions in the court this time.
The ministers and the queen mother didn't know, and the ministers were still playing step by step as before.
Zhu Changshi knelt down and said, the minister has a fold and asks to play.
The eunuch said, can you play it if you have a book?
Zhu Changshi said, as the long history of the country, sent people to pay attention to the country's material situation, economic situation, as the Xiongnu suffered a heavy blow, the survival of the Xiongnu people appeared in crisis, prompting the Hun cavalry to begin to sweep the Gobi Desert frantically, the Gobi nomads in order to live a stable life, the nomads who moved outside Loulan City are gathering more and more, the caravans of various countries in the desert are decreasing, the domestic storage materials are declining, there is no good way to solve it, the living materials of the people are worried, Not to mention the supply of supplies to the homeless people outside the city, please ask the emperor and important ministers to discuss it, I hope to come up with a feasible answer today!
On the one hand, the ministers' political discussion was to control the entry of the nomads into the city and the outflow of goods from the city, and on the other hand, the ministers did not agree with the political discussion and put forward different opinions.
The Queen Mother didn't have a good plan for a while, so she could only watch it quietly.
Half an hour passed, and the discussion was ongoing. Of course, it was carried out in a limited way, Wang Guifei stood up without hurry, and said, the concubine has something to say?
The emperor said kindly. Since Wang Guifei has something to say, just say it, let's talk about it?
Wang Guifei said, the discussion of the ministers above the court is meaningless, there is no point at all. The Hun cavalry swept the nomads and caravans in the Gobi Desert with speed and strength, so that the number of homeless people outside the ancient country of Loulan increased a lot for a while, but the caravans of various countries were decreasing, and the supplies could not be supplied.
The concubines have a long-term strategy, I don't know whether to talk about it or not, it may cause criticism from the queen mother and ministers, but this can solve the supply of materials in the ancient country of Loulan, and ensure the longevity and stability of the survival materials of the people and the nomads.
The emperor An Shan and everyone in the court heard it clearly, and knew that Wang Guifei was about to express her opinions again, so they all pricked up their ears and waited for Wang Guifei to speak.
When the queen mother heard that Wang Guifei was going to express her political opinions, she began to defend herself in her heart, because she had to use her brain to analyze Wang Guifei's words all the time to see the true meaning of her meaning, whether there was any harm to the ancient country of Loulan, and whether there were any drawbacks.
The emperor is kind and good, Wang Guifei has a good plan, and political opinions can be talked about and discussed.
Wang Guifei got the emperor's holy decree of peace and kindness, and began to talk about her political opinions in the court, of course, political opinions are purposeful, on the one hand, to solve the lack of materials in the ancient country of Loulan. On the one hand, he wanted to take this opportunity to allow the Han army to enter Loulan City reasonably and enter and exit freely.
The content of the words is that the Hun cavalry is like a robber in the desert, elusive, irregularly in the desert to harass the Gobi nomads, caravans, it can be said that the Gobi nomads and caravans are helpless against the Hun cavalry, if they meet it, they will become lambs to the slaughter, there is no ability to resist at all, so the caravans of various countries have given up wandering in the desert, the trade of materials, human life is precious, and it is not possible to take risks for money.
The concubines saw that the supplies of the ancient kingdom of Loulan were in an emergency, and the fundamental reason was not the nomads outside the city, but the reduction of caravans from various countries.
How can we solve the problem of caravans, and what can be done to solve the caravan transportation materials?
If the emperor agrees, the concubine will immediately ask for the help of the Han Dynasty, and ask the Han Dynasty to send troops to protect the caravan between the ancient country of Loulan and the Han Dynasty, carry out material exchanges, and have the escort of the Han Dynasty's soldiers. The Han caravan has no worries, and it is not afraid of the Hun cavalry, so that the materials will reach a reasonable allocation, and the material problem will be fundamentally solved, which is absolutely reasonable and can last for a long time. It is possible to achieve a win-win situation for the two countries, and the concubine's opinion is finished. Would you like to ask the emperor and the ministers to argue?
The emperor opened his mouth and said, then start expressing his political opinions!
The courtiers began to debate, and most of the courtiers agreed with Wang Guifei's political opinions, believing that it was feasible, and that it was certain that there was the escort of the Han army, that the caravan could be guaranteed, and that the exchange of materials could be guaranteed.
The queen mother did not express her political opinions, but her heart and brain were running at a high speed, and she listened to the political opinions of the princess Wang Guifei, and she also felt that the political views were feasible. If you send a small number of soldiers to escort it, it cannot guarantee the safety of the caravan personnel, and send a large number of soldiers to escort the caravan and materials, the cost is huge, and the cost of materials will definitely increase, which will provoke the rise of transaction costs.
The most important thing is not the price adjustment of materials, since the Han army is to escort the caravan, they will definitely accompany the caravan, they are going to enter Loulan City with the caravan, stop in Loulan City, if a caravan of the escort stops in Loulancheng is okay, it is understandable, once the Han caravan can not leave for a day or two, another caravan of the Han Dynasty will come again, and the Han Dynasty will enter Loulancheng again, stop in Loulan City, what is this concept, isn't it the Han Dynasty's change of direction in the ancient country of Loulan? Moreover, the Han two caravans brought into the city were not less than two hundred Han soldiers, thinking to the bad side, if the Han Dynasty planned to secretly transport troops through the caravan, the one or two hundred soldiers must not be ordinary generals. Is the army in the city still useful?
The queen mother thought of this, and felt that the political opinion of the princess was to solve the material problem of the ancient country of Loulan on the surface, and on the bright side it was to ask the Han Dynasty to help it and send troops to protect it, and there were secrets that could not be told secrets. It is to lay the early preparations for the Han Dynasty to attack the ancient country of Loulan in the future, and to lay an ambush, this move is too ruthless, really ruthless, really cunning!
