With Yun Fan's encouragement, Chen Xu stepped forward. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the end of the music, Yan Qiang hugged Chen Xu and cried bitterly, although she still didn't think too much, but she felt that she and Chen Xu really had a heart.

Yun Fan deliberately avoided it, beckoned the others to step back, and left the lawn to the two of them, so that Chen Xu could have a good talk with Yan Qiang.

Yang Xiao said puzzledly: "I thought you were going to stay here today, but you actually gave it to your brother." Your relationship is not ordinary. ”

Yun Fan came back to his senses from his memories of his hometown, and only then did he find that there were only Zan Yu, Yang Xiao and Yang Huan left around him.

He ignored Yang Xiao's temptation, and said directly: "Yan Qiang, I'm going to take it away, let your Uncle Wang make a price." ”

Yang Xiao said: "This is a small problem, I am the master to send Yan Qiang to you." ”

Yun Fan didn't accept it: "Follow the rules, I know that your royal family has not been financially rich all these years." ”

Yangxiao's nose was sour, and she almost burst into tears.

Yang Huan cared differently, "King Tang, are you ransom Yanqiang for Chen Xu?" "It's Chen Xu, but he wants to find out if Yun Fan wants it. Yun Fan said funny: "It's for him, it's also for Yan Qiang." Certainly not for me. ”

Yang Huan suddenly relaxed, her performance was too obvious, Zan Yu and Yang Xiao both laughed at her for dominating Yun Fan and not wanting others to get involved.

Zan Yu smiled: "Princess, if you want to enter the gate of the Yun family, hurry up and entertain me." Otherwise, if Zan Qing is unwilling, you will be miserable. ”

Yang Huan generously admitted that he had this meaning, but he didn't understand Zan Yu's meaning, "Why should I scold you, it's enough for me to please King Tang." Bravely hugged Yun Fan's arm, grinning and making a flattering appearance.

Zan Yu said, "You don't know. I'm telling you, there is a new decree in the Dragon Kingdom, about marriage. When a man marries a concubine, he needs the consent of his married wife and concubine. The decree issued by the Tang King himself naturally led by example. I'm not wrong, Tang Wang? ”

Yun Fan glanced at Zan Yu, "That's the case." "I was secretly vigilant in my heart, Zan Yu was really not in vain, and even the laws and regulations of the Dragon Kingdom were studied so carefully, and his heart was not small. Some people say that the person who knows you best is the enemy, and Zan Yu's hatred of himself is likely to exceed his hatred for him, so you need to pay attention.

Yang Xiao changed the subject, "How about finding a place to have a drink?" ”

Zan Yu said: "I don't care. ”

Yun Fan also nodded in agreement, "Okay." It's good to steal half a day of leisure and relax completely. "Today, I was disturbed by Bai Lang and Chen Xu, and I couldn't settle down to engage in scientific research.

Yang Huan proposed to go to the palace, and she was willing to cook herself.

Zan Yu laughed and said, "It is a great honor to be able to wash your hands and make soup with Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

Yun Fan said, "Can you eat what you made?" ”

In the Longguo Guogong Mansion, because Yun Fan does not treat the helpers of the Guogong Mansion as a person, does not regard cooking and laundry as lowly, and even sometimes cooks to show his skills, so Li Yan, Zan Qing, Mingfeng and others have all cooked.

Yang Huan also tried it with great interest, but the taste was really not complimentary.

Yang Huan said coquettishly: "People have come back to practice." I promise to do better than Sister Li now. ”

Yun Fan smiled: "Forget it, I don't want to be your experiment." Walking towards the restaurant across the street, Yun Fan didn't want to have further contact with Yang Huan.

However, Zan Yu and Yang Xiao seemed to have discovered a big secret, looking at Yun Fan's eyes, full of laughter, meaning that you already had a leg.

Yang Huan pretended to be stupid and hugged Yun Fan's arm tighter.

I didn't ask for a separate courtyard in the backyard of the restaurant, but went straight to the second floor and asked for a private room. I ordered some drinks and dishes at random, and told people not to come in and disturb them. In fact, it is impossible for others to disturb, and the secret guards of these people are basically all in and around the restaurant. Even Ji Zhi has always paid attention to their divine sense.

After three rounds of drinking, the topic couldn't help but turn to the heavy current joint meeting.

The Federation has made great progress in some small areas, but it has struggled on major issues.

Yang Xiaoyang Huan circled around Yun Fan, naturally wanting to know what Yun Fan meant clearly on the royal issue.

"As I said, how much power you have to pray for how much power. With great power comes great responsibility. Yun Fan said bluntly, "The first emperor and my grandfather didn't see their abilities clearly, which led to disaster." Now it is basically clear that it was manipulated by Xianlutang.

Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, if all you want is the safety of the royal family, I can promise you now. If I want to get more rights, then I can't guarantee it.

My opinion is that if you want to maintain the integrity of Dongzhou, you must be the emperor and must be the emperor.

Dongzhou's knighthood is still reasonable only with your permission. But if a small viscount needs to report to the capital to ask you for a reward, it will be too cumbersome.

We can draw a line, count or marquis or above, reported by the vassal states, and you approve the decree. As for the low-level titles, it is up to the kings of each country to deal with them.

This is the first thing, and the second is that if the Federation wants to be permanent and deal with the affairs of the whole of Dongzhou, it needs a name. Think of it as the Emperor's cabinet. The resolutions of the Cabinet of Ministers shall be submitted to you for review and published in your name. However, you do not have the right to interfere in the decision-making process of the Cabinet.

Third, as the leader of Dongzhou, you should naturally be rewarded accordingly. In addition, the operation of the Federation also requires expenditures, and it is appropriate to discuss how much each family should pay to the Federation and the Royal Crown each year. You royalty can also have your own legal estate.

In this way, it seems that the emperor is still a decoration, as before.

But I think if you think about it differently, you might feel different.

Before, it was not nice to say, the emperor was just a puppet. Now, you can think of yourself as an offering, an offering for the kingdoms as a whole. It is still hereditary, and you have the final say on who will succeed to the throne in the future. What do you think? ”

Yang Xiao's face flashed with unwillingness and loneliness, but what can he do, as Yun Fan said, his ability or strength is only so great.

However, he was unwilling to be only in a blink of an eye, so many years of survival in the cracks made him see the reality clearly. It is unrealistic to vainly expect Yun Fan to be the same as Yun Han and pay free loyalty for their royal family.

Moreover, he may not be able to keep the rights given by others, and he may even hurt himself like a double-edged sword.

The benefits given by Yun Fan should be considered very perfect, although they are far from the ideal.

Yang Xiao sincerely expressed her gratitude for this.

Yang Huan asked another question, "Can the royal family have its own guards to maintain security?" ”

Yun Fan thought for a moment, "This is how it should be, but the scale needs to be limited." After all, the royal expenditure was paid by the kingdoms, and the larger the scale, the heavier the burden on each country. I also think that not only the Royal Guard, but also the armies of other countries should be reduced. Military spending is too large, which is not conducive to the national economy and people's livelihood. ”

Zan Yu said: "If you want to reduce the armies of various countries, it may not be easy. Others do not have as advanced technological weapons as you, and only by relying on numbers can you ensure your own safety. ”

Yun Fan said: "This is not difficult. On the issue of security, the federation can negotiate a system to use collective strength to maintain everyone's safety. Whoever uses the sword in vain will be punished by all.

In terms of weapons, I can also promise that whoever is willing to cut them, I can sell them advanced weapons. The more you reduce, the more weapons you offer. Even production technology can be transferred for a fee. ”

Zan Yu immediately responded: "If you make this commitment at the joint meeting, I am willing to support disarmament." ”

Of course Zan Yu is willing, the last war caused heavy losses to the south, both in terms of military strength and economy, it is not as good as before. He desperately needed a peaceful environment to recuperate.

Local disarmament, Yang Xiao has no right to put his beak and not say a word.

Yang Huan was not very satisfied with the royal rights, "King Tang, does the emperor have anything else to do besides being a mouthpiece?" This is also too leisurely, Dongzhou is still nominally the Yang family, right. ”

Yun Fan glanced at Yang Huan, "You can't be idle."

First of all, I don't agree with your statement, Dongzhou is not the Yang family, it is the Dongzhou of all Dongzhou people. I have said more than once in the Dragon Kingdom that the Dragon Kingdom is not my Yun Fan's personal Dragon Kingdom, but the Dragon Kingdom of all the people of the Dragon Kingdom.

There are many other affairs of the emperor, so I am afraid that His Majesty will be tired.

For example, if there is a conflict between the families and it needs to be mediated, it will be reported to His Majesty. His Majesty then summoned the general staff of the Federation to discuss a disposition.

For example, large projects involving many countries also need to be regulated by His Majesty.

I have thought that if the whole Dongzhou wants to develop, transportation needs to be solved urgently. I envisage two major projects: First, the excavation of one or two circular canals to connect several major water systems in Dongzhou, which can not only regulate drought and flood in various places, but also enable the rapid development of shipping.

Second, we should vigorously build elevated roads and rail roads to form a transportation network that connects all countries and regions. In this way, not only business, but also all walks of life in Dongzhou will develop rapidly. ”

Yun Fan's grand plan frightened the three of them, this plan was too huge. The benefits after completion are self-evident and boundless, but the investment is likely to be a bottomless pit, with capital, manpower, and material resources all astronomical.

The second summit meeting of the Oriental Continent Association was held in the main hall of the Imperial Palace.

Under the emperor's throne, it is no longer the ministers of civil and military affairs who are divided into two compartments, but the left and right sides are arranged in a semicircle, and three circles of tables and chairs are placed symmetrically. There is a gap at the entrance and the upper throne.

Yangxiao is at the top, and the heads of various countries and gangs sit around the table. The first circle is for the kingdoms. Yun Fan did not set up another seat for the Ninth National Congress, and bluntly said that since he had joined the WTO, he did not need to hide it, and simply sat with the host country. Therefore, Baicaoyuan and Qianguo, Jiuxing Gang and Beiguo, Sanbaotang and Nanguo, Qianji Pavilion and Yiguo, King Kong Gate and Wu Kingdom, Niyun Palace and Dragon Kingdom, seats are all arranged together.

The second circle is for the second- and third-level gangs in various places, such as the Iron Sword Gate.

The outer ring is the official of the official palace that records the personnel and the emperor's shadow, such as the nominal military department palm seal envoy of Dongzhou.

It's not that Yun Fan doesn't respect these officials, but in fact, acknowledging the emperor is not the same as recognizing the officials he appointed. If the Federation succeeds in reaching an agreement, the Federation will become the supreme authority, and the central officials of the East Continent Federation will have to be reappointed by the Federation.

After a few days of consultations, the topic gradually became inseparable from the core issue, that is, the specific operation mode of the Dongzhou Central Government from now on.
