Chapter 971: Xiahou
Of course, now these ships are stuck at the stage of drawings and models.
Now that the model has been made, it means that it is ready to be built.
"Don't the heroes over there in Xiongjin want a boat? Make a batch first, give them a try, and then improve it. "Yang Zheng's belly is underdog.
This group of scholars and heroes picked up Daqin every day to attack the Wa Kingdom, so that they could follow behind to eat meat and drink soup.
The problem is that there are only a few pieces of arable land in the Wa Kingdom, which is far away from Daqin, and it is not cost-effective, so it is better to leave it to the powerful and powerful, and cut it with a blunt knife.
It is also the test site of the Great Qin Navy.
"Your Majesty is wise......" Pei Xiu said with a dry smile, probably not expecting Yang Zheng to be so black-bellied.
After laughing, Pei Xiu arched his hand and said: "The minister thinks that things at sea are unpredictable, and once the people arrive on the ship, they will be disconnected from the government, and ordinary people should be moderately forbidden to sail." ”
Yang Zheng was stunned, this admonition looks stupid on the surface, but it is actually clever.
It is equivalent to taking all the maritime interests into the hands of the nobles.
The butt decides the head, Pei Xiu is worthy of being from the scholar clan, and he has been mixed with Sima Zhao and Sima Yan for many years, and he is essentially the same as the previous dynasty.
This is also the reason why Yang Zheng appointed him as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.
Do more work, and participate less in the rights and wrongs of the court.
"The people are sorrowful, and they can take it from the sea, which is for the benefit of the country and the people, and how can I forbid the sea because of choking?" Yang Zheng's tone was slightly displeased.
Yang Zheng wished that the people of Great Qin would go to the ocean, how could he ban the sea?
"Minister, foolishness, Your Majesty forgives your sins." Pei Xiu hurriedly made amends.
Yang Zheng didn't take it too seriously, Pei Xiu said that the sea was "moderately", not a complete sea ban, which showed that he was still thinking about Daqin.
In fact, in recent years, there have been more and more pirates active in the East China Sea and the South China Sea.
Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the sea to eat the sea.
Many areas along the coast are not suitable for farming, so you can only go to the sea.
Fortunately, these people were measured, and did not plunder the official ships of Daqin, but continued to raid the countries of the South China Sea, occasionally plundering the private ships of the powerful scholars, and sometimes plundering Sanhan, Waguo, Funan and other places.
By and large, it is still within the tolerable range.
Those who dare to cross the sea to plunder must be ruthless, even if they stay on the mainland all these years, they are still strong, so it is better to go out and harm others.
Besides, the ocean is so vast, and the current Great Qin is not capable of eating it completely.
However, Pei Xiu's exhortation was quite tactful, and Huainan Taishou Xiahou Zhuang's upper table was very direct, first agitating in the court, and then contacting a group of nobles, constantly creating momentum, saying how chaotic the East China Sea was, it had become a place to hide dirt and dirt.
He didn't go to the book, Yang Zheng still felt that Pei Xiu was just a personal act, and now it seems that some people are premeditated, planned, and step-by-step to encroach on the interests of Daqin and the people.
】
In fact, many times, the interests of the court and the people are the same, but the group of people in the middle is not.
As the power of the crown prince has become more and more stable, coupled with the queen Xiahou Zhi, the Xiahou family has drifted a little in recent years.
Xiahou Zhuang is the grandson of Xiahou Yuan and the son of Xiahou Wei, who can be called the stallion of the Xiahou family, and gave birth to six sons and seven daughters......
Then these children married again, and the power of the Xiahou family came up.
Although the imperial court strictly forbade marriages with scholars, they could marry with eunuchs, heroes, and nobles.
This is still just one of Xiahouwei......
Yang Zheng is indeed grateful to Xiahou Ba and Xiahou Xuan, without their promotion and protection, he doesn't know how tall the grass on his grave will grow, but one yard to another, when Yang Zheng cleaned up the heroes of the Shi clan, he had already opened up to them.
picked up Xiahou Ba's heirs from Liaodong, and pardoned Xiahou He, Xiahou Jun and others who were in collusion with the Sima family.
But politics and governance are always cruel and dark.
The Xiahou family has begun to touch Yang Zhen's bottom line, and it is said that Sima Yi got up like this back then.
What are the benefits of the ocean? The Xiahou family wants to be so monopolized?
If the Xiahou family is more low-key, Yang Zheng will just turn a blind eye, he doesn't want to do things too desperately, and it is enough to deal with them with the prince's power skills.
But now it seems that some things are better to do by yourself and cannot be handed over to the next generation.
Yang Zheng did not show any attitude towards the call for a ban on the sea set off by Xiahouzhuang.
Smart people naturally smell the limelight wrong, but greedy people think there is an opportunity.
Thankless work, surely no one will do it.
The Xiahou family spent so much effort to encourage the imperial court to ban the sea, either it was really for the sake of Great Qin, but the way was wrong, or there were huge interests in it.
"Real gold is not afraid of fire." Yang Zheng sneered.
It's the cat that always steals.
The Xiahou family has a big business, and it is definitely impossible to maintain a huge interest group without fertilizer.
Zhao Aqi sighed: "No wonder the Xiahou clan is deliberately seeking the position of Huainan Taishou. ”
Wei Qian's eyelids moved, "This matter is involved...... Quite a lot, is Your Majesty really so determined? ”
Yang Zheng knew what he was talking about.
Without Xiahouzhi's connivance over the years, the Xiahou family would not have swelled to this extent.
Moreover, the Xiahou clan is also the prince's maternal family, and the involvement is too wide.
Standing on the Tianyuan Pavilion, Yang Zheng looked at the bustling street market for a long time, "Meritorious work is merit, passing is excessive, in the past, Huo Guang had the grace of rebuilding the Han Dynasty, and it was still inevitable that the clan would be wiped out, and now the Xiahou family will not be moved, and it will be either He Jin or Sima Yi in the future!" ”
Daqin doesn't need a relative.
What's more, the Xiahou family has no merits to speak of to Daqin, let alone be compared with Huo Guang, and the only one who can be put on the table is Xiahou Xu.
It's not that Yang Zheng wants to move the Xiahou clan, but that the Xiahou clan himself doesn't know how to advance or retreat, and he doesn't follow the rules set by Yang Zheng.
"Deal with it impartially, I want the Xiahou family to be convinced!" Yang Zheng made the final decision.
"Yui!" Zhao Aqi arched his hand.
As soon as the few people dispersed, the queen's female official came to invite, "Your Majesty, the queen has prepared a few dishes for Your Majesty, and I have come to invite Your Majesty to a small gathering." ”
"I'll be here soon."
At this time, I am afraid that I am not looking for myself for a small gathering.
It seems that the wind of Xiahou's family has blown in front of Xiahou.
Yang Zheng is most at ease now, but family affection is family affection, and the country is the country...... Now I am soft-hearted, but I am afraid that the next generation will have heartache in the future.
Harem, brightly lit.
Xiahou Zhi put a lot of thought into making the harem elegant and simple, and several dishes were also Yang Zheng's favorite dishes.
"The queen bothered."
After so many years, Xiahou Zhi's face has aged, and there are a few more wrinkles on his face, and there seems to be a trace of sorrow hidden in the wrinkles.
"Your Majesty works hard for the country, and you must also take care of your health." Xiahou Zhi smiled slightly.
Yang Zheng felt a burst of warmth in his heart, "The queen invited me today, I don't know what it is?" ”
The sorrow on Xiahou Zhi's face suddenly magnified, "Your Majesty...... Do you want to move Xiahou's house? ”
This time it was Yang Zheng's turn to be surprised, "Why did the queen say this?" ”
"Hey, all the actions of the Xiahou family, how can the concubines not know? It's just that His Majesty doesn't like the harem to interfere in politics, and the concubines have been buried in their hearts, the Xiahou family has gone too far over the years, relying on the concubines and the prince, and has done a lot of shady things, thanks to His Majesty's tolerance, they have been safe and sound, but the people are insatiable, and the concubines have repeatedly advised them to stop in moderation...... It's a pity that they all fell on deaf ears. ”
After all, after so many years as a husband and wife, what does Yang Zheng want to do, how could Xiahou Zhi not know?
In the past, Xiahou Zhi was the daughter of the Xiahou family, but now Xiahou Zhi is the queen of Daqin, the mother of the crown prince, and the wife of Yang Zheng......
"You're here to persuade my men to show mercy?" Yang Zheng's voice was much softer.
Since ancient times, the emperor's family affairs have been the biggest political affairs.
"Do what you want, Your Majesty will have ...... measure"
Xiahou Zhi looked tired, it seemed that Xiahou's family had disappointed her.
In fact, this is already a request for the Xiahou family, and after saying this, Yang Zheng will not kill them all anyway.
Yang Zheng's character is to eat soft and not hard.
Xiahou Zhi is interceding for Xiahou's family in another way.
"I see." Yang Zheng nodded, as long as the Xiahou family didn't do too much, of course he wouldn't be too desperate.
