Chapter 292: A Soldier Who Surrenders Without a Fight
Dayan originally had female officials.
The female officer is in charge of the six bureaus and has 24 divisions under his jurisdiction. For example, the Shanggong Bureau, Guan Siyan, is in charge of propaganda and enlightenment; Treasurer, in charge of the directory measurement; Si Zheng, palm form pushes punishment; Si Yan, the head of the cabinet.
But even the leaders of each division are only the fifth grade, so it is expedient to add a peacock according to the three-grade command.
Tang Shiyue, who received the will, could only catch up with the holy driver overnight, changed into the female official uniform made in a hurry, and went to see Emperor Ming Yan with a confused face.
Emperor Ming Yan wanted to laugh when he saw her little expression that was not in a state, but he didn't explain it to her and continued to discuss with the courtiers.
Tang Shiyue saw the emperor's carriage for the first time, six horses pulled, and the inside was very spacious, like a small room, with tables, chairs and screens.
But no matter how much it looks like a small room, it's just a carriage.
There were no other female officers in the car, and she couldn't do the same, she always felt that people were talking, and it didn't seem like that she was standing here, so she thought about it, and moved quietly, and stood wittily in a corner that was least in the way.
So Emperor Ming Yan was discussing things, and he saw this girl slipping aside as if nothing happened, standing by the carriage, leaning against the wall of the carriage, and after a while, he thought that he was not noticed by anyone, and sat on the shelf.
Gu Jiuxing, who had been standing: "......"
The two people who discussed with Emperor Ming Yan were both members of the court, one was the elder Lin Fujian, and the other was Xu Mingxiu, the right minister, all of whom were old and sophisticated. After just a glance, I knew that she really didn't understand the rules, instead of being pampered and arrogant, seeing that the emperor didn't speak, they didn't understand the emperor's attitude, so naturally they wouldn't say much.
So the two pretended to be blind and left after the discussion.
Tang Shiyue quickly came over to salute, and Emperor Ming Yan smiled: "Enfu, do you know what I asked you to do?" ”
Tang Shiyue shook his head: "I don't know." ”
Emperor Ming Yan said: "I am going to the Northwest Pass this time, don't you want to go and see?" ”
Tang Shiyue's eyes lit up all of a sudden.
That's right, Northwest Guan! Where the Huo family has fought for generations, of course she wants to go! Of course, I want to go!
Tang Shiyue was pleasantly surprised: "Your Majesty, you are really good!" Thank you, Your Majesty! ”
"This is one," Emperor Ming Yan glanced at her with a smile, and when he saw her blinking and listening, he continued with a smile: "Second, you sent my people to the grassland before, what kind of candles and soap are made, and what the situation is, you should also go and see." ”
Tang Shiyue nodded.
Emperor Ming Yan said: "How did you think of doing business with the grassland people?" ”
Tang Shiyue spread his hands: "At that time, it was purely to make money. ”
Emperor Ming Yan choked.
Tang Shiyue continued: "But the wool business is going well, but these two businesses have stagnated, I thought I was stupid at the time, I have always deeply believed that the grassland is also Dayan's, and the world is all Dayan's." But I didn't expect that it wasn't, they were Mobeiguo. ”
"But I didn't think much about it at the time, after all, he was in his position to seek his own government, which is of course a big deal for you, the emperor, but for me as a little woman, it's just that business can't be done."
She spoke calmly: "It wasn't until Bingqi came over later that I thought, since there is a bridge, why can't I try to do more?" Why do you think wool goes so well? Because they are poor! Really poor! Because he was poor, he did not hesitate to take the risk to sell wool. Why is goat milk and sheep fat not smooth? Don't they want to sell? Of course I want to, but it's just not good to store, a little bit at a time, and it's not worth the risk for this little bit. ”
She looked at him, her eyes clear, "They are afraid of us, and they regard entering the land of Dayan as an adventure. ”
Emperor Ming Yan nodded slowly.
Tang Shiyue continued: "But what if we send the money to the door? If the business can be bigger, it is the food and clothing of these people, and they can make a fortune on wool, goat milk, and sheep fat, why do they have to go to the battlefield to die? ”
"People know how to weigh up, no one is really not afraid of death, before the Mobei Kingdom repeatedly attacked Yan, it was just a dog jumping off the wall in a hurry, grabbing a city is enough, grabbing two is earning, but if you don't fight, you will have money?"
She concluded: "This is called surrendering without a fight." ”
Emperor Ming Yan was silent, and after a long time, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.
When Bingqi asked for instructions, he did hesitate, but he quickly realized that this was an opportunity.
Mobei has not passed the Northwest Pass for a hundred years, but it has never stopped invading, and it has been fighting with Dayan and fighting small battles, but what if they choke their money bags?
He had high hopes for it.
He didn't bring it up in the court, but secretly sent a lot of people to Bingqi, on the surface, this is one of the businesses of Tang Shiyue, a little woman, so she entered quietly, and then extended step by step, and finally ...... Become their indispensable presence!
Emperor Ming Yan wanted to know which step she had in mind, so he smiled: "And then?" ”
"And then? Develop and grow first! Tang Shiyue said: "When they are strong enough to attract attention, they will teach them all these things." ”
"Oh?" Emperor Ming Yan raised his eyebrows: "Why?" ”
"The market!" Tang Shiyue said with a smile: "Everyone on the grassland herds horses and sheep, and every family has sheep milk and sheep fat, so what if they can make it themselves?" It's made, and to whom is it sold? Aren't you going to sell it to our Dayan? ”
She blinked her eyes and smiled like a little fox: "If you want to grab something, you can use a knife and a gun, shout and kill, but you want to send something...... But it's not that easy. ”
There was a loud laugh from the carriage of Emperor Ming Yan. It's very cheerful.
Many people glanced at each other vaguely, conveying the meaning that only they understood.
Tang Shiyue also breathed a sigh of relief.
She said, such a handsome emperor must have a good brain.
Behind closed doors does not make people grow rapidly, and it is an undefeated method to master the skills of mastering and controlling.
Don't refuse to sell iron pots to others, just because iron pots can be cast into weapons, many people in this era think so, otherwise, the Qing Dynasty would not have closed the country.
Tang Shiyue stayed in the car all morning, and even used lunch in the car.
After lunch, Emperor Ming Yan wanted to summon people to discuss matters, so he called an old man over: "Enfu, this is Lord Wang, ask him to tell you a book in the afternoon." ”
No way!? Tang Shiyue's eyes widened in disbelief.
The accusation in her eyes, "I know everything about you, but you think I'm uneducated" was about to come out, and Emperor Ming Yan almost laughed.
He coughed and said, "It's not that you want to learn anything seriously, Lord Wang is erudite and talented, explains in simple terms, and is funny and witty, just learn and learn." ”
Serious and laughed less than ten times a year, but the scholar Wang, who was witty, humorous, and funny, twitched his face.
Is this telling him to coax the child? But the emperor said that he was witty, so he had to be witty, so he could only pick out interesting allusions and tell her all afternoon......
In the evening, Emperor Ming Yan summoned her to dinner together.
Because it is August 15, although everything is simple during the journey, the meal is still extremely rich, there are dozens of kinds of moon cakes, each of which is small, delicate and lovely.
When he went out in the morning, Tang Shiyue received a gift from Huo Qijing who was handed over by Jia, which was a portrait of himself carved by himself, the two sat on a pavilion, she was lying on his back, although it was small, but the carving was wonderful and beautiful, very cute.
And before that, she also received gifts from Sheng Qi and the crown prince. And the prince's gift turned out to be several seeds that had never been seen before.
Someone remembers her real birthday, Tang Shiyue's mood is so good that she wants to fly, and looking at Emperor Ming Yan in front of her is also doubly pleasing to the eye.
She picked out the most beautiful small moon cake, cut it in half with a silver knife, and gave half to Emperor Ming Yan: "Your Majesty, shall we share one?" ”
