Chapter 988: Re-establishment of the country
Although Ximen Fuxue is cold-faced, and he betrayed the house when he was young and became the head of the horse bandits, he has grown up with it since he was a child, and obviously the atmosphere at this table is a little wrong, the old fox in the East, nothing to talk nonsense.
"Why haven't I heard of it, I'll go back and ask when I get back!" Ximen Fuxue simply pretended to be confused, Ximen Wan'er ran into the palace without anything, although it was after Leng Zhuo's absence, but obviously this matter is worth playing, after all, Ximen Wan'er is not young!
Dongfang Zhi looked at Ximen Blowing Snow and sloppy eyes, but his mouth trembled, this guy actually pretended to be confused, but Dongfang Zhi did not dwell on this, but said with emotion: "Seeing that this has been established for five years, it has been five years since the establishment of the Great Chu Capital!"
Dongfang Zhi's words of a hammer in the east and a stick in the west made the three people present entangled, especially Nangong Lie, who was already a fiery temper, and he didn't like this kind of twists and turns the most: "I said Brother Dongfang, what do you want to say, I am so confused!"
Dongfang Zhi glanced at Nangong Lie, but he picked up a chopstick dish, chewed it carefully, and said after a while: "Five years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Great Chu has now controlled the thirteen prefectures of Chuzhou and the eight prefectures of Yangzhou, with more than one million soldiers and horses, and hundreds of millions of gold in the treasury!"
"Pick up the territory under control, not even under the empire, pick up the might of soldiers and horses, not weak the empire, Li Tang, but now my Great Chu Kingdom is just an imperial feudal country, the land is only eight hundred miles, and the rest of the land is just escrow, in the past, it was chaotic in the past, and it was difficult to establish a country, but now that Great Chu has been prosperous for five years, isn't it time to go further!"
Da Chu was in a hurry to establish the country, Leng Zhuo didn't say hello to anyone at all, and naturally he couldn't talk about any merit in supporting the establishment, now the four great families, the foundation of the Dongfang family is shallow, the foundation is thin, and they also carry the name of the imperial prisoner, Da Chu is still under the empire for a day, and the Dongfang family will be at peace for a day.
The conditions were not mature before, at that time Da Chu still only had one state and eleven prefectures, although Yangzhou was partly invested in the Great Chu Kingdom, but the control was not strong, the imperial power was still very strong, but now Yangzhou is clear, although the price is somewhat heavy, but this is not a problem, as long as you recuperate for three or five years, Yangzhou is a paradise again.
The land of the two states, with a million armor, this kind of strength, still subservient to the empire, is obviously the heart of the wolf is clearly revealed, but there is no momentum to hide it, as the so-called name is not good, now that Da Chu is in the locality, the officials are all the identity management of the patrol, and it is imminent to eliminate the last influence of the empire.
Dongfang Zhi's further step is naturally to put Da Chu in the same position as the empire, the empire is no longer the empire it was at the beginning, and now the three northwestern states are in the hands of Li Tang, and Shuzhong is still in chaos, but even if it is not chaotic, it is estimated that Shuchuan will be self-reliant, after all, it is too far away from the center of the empire to echo at all.
"Go further!" Obviously, Dongfang Zhi suddenly said such a sensitive topic, which really made people a little defenseless, but Nangong Lie obviously glanced at Dongfang Zhi more, he was busy and confused, yes, it's time to go further, he is always subservient to others, he is also aggrieved, it's time to take off the hat of the empire, or even replace it, otherwise what is the Nangong family's picture, only the real founding of the Great Chu, and these ministers who support it, can get more.
Beicheng Mingyue didn't expect the topic of Dongfang Zhi to span so much, but he had a cautious opinion on Liguo I.
Now the Great Chu Kingdom hangs an imperial hat, although it is only nominal, but with this hat, the two sides cannot tear their faces, at least when Li Tang is still strong, and the best thing is that Great Chu joins forces with the empire to pacify Li Tang in Zhongzhou, and then, the two sides compete with each other.
There are many advantages to this, Chu and Yang are the land of money and grain, and the materials are abundant, so they join forces to destroy Li Tang and fight for the world with the empire, they have to have a lot of advantages, but the disadvantages are also obvious, and they do not occupy the righteousness.
And now take off the hat of the empire, it will make the world fall into a three-point state, when the time comes, not only to face Li Tang, but also to face the empire, and if the empire tears his face and unites Li Tang to take the knife from Chu, this situation is not impossible, after all, Chu and Yang are the land of finance, taxation, money and grain, for the empire, or Li Tang, they are all a piece of fat, and the possibility of the two parties reaching an agreement is not small.
Since Dongfang Zhi said this, he naturally didn't want to hide it, although their four great families occupied a place in Great Chu, they could not compare to the prestige of the imperial court at the beginning, whether it was the cabinet or the military aircraft department, the influence of the four great families was very weak, if they wanted to stabilize their position, they naturally had to do some big things, and what could be greater than supporting it.
"That's right, Da Chu is on the throne, we can be honored together, now is a good time, and when Da Chu founded the country, he hurriedly opened a yamen and changed his name, even if it was the founding of the country, what a child's play, if you let the history books record it in the future, how to comment on my Da Chu!"
"A country, the first thing is prestige, how can the establishment of the country be sloppy, now is also the time, for my great Chu name, let the world learn together, otherwise we are not even as good as that holy religion country, how to talk about unifying the country and pacifying Kyushu in the future!"
"Well, that's true, that kid didn't say hello at the beginning, saying that the founding of the country was the founding of the country, and even a founding ceremony was simply held, it really lacked the solemnity of a country, and it was not in line with etiquette, and it would definitely be criticized in the future, I support this matter!"
Nangong Lieyan was able to oppose this matter, and immediately raised his hands in agreement, and he had to be positive, not to fall behind, otherwise wouldn't his previous achievements be wasted.
"I wait for the four great families, and now they are reunited here, it is also the creation and the will of God, I wait for the children of the family, and there are many people in Dachu, we have to fight for their reputation, and we will have a better future when Dachu is prosperous, it is better to wait for the king of Chu to come back, and I will wait for the book to be published!
Beicheng Mingyue knew that this matter could not be stopped, even if he stopped it, Dongfang Zhi would not stop, and Nangong Lie would not object, and as long as someone took the lead in this matter, there must be countless responders, this is exactly what everyone wants, how can anyone oppose it, and if he opposes it, it is purely self-inflicted.
Beicheng Mingyue could only nod and said, "Over there in the cabinet, I'll go and ventilate and see what a few cabinet ministers mean!"
"It's okay, after all, this matter can't be rushed, the founding of the country is not a child's play, you have to think about it up and down!" Dongfang Zhi is not a person who is impulsive when he is hot, but he is also a man in his fifties, and he has been in the court for many years, so he has rich experience in this area.
The four of them finally reached an agreement on persuading the re-establishment of the country, but Dongfang Zhi was a cliché, like chatting about family life, and said: "This time, it is seven or eight years, but I have experienced more than a lifetime, and my life has passed like this, poor my family Fu'er, hey!" Dongfang Zhi said and wiped the corners of his eyes, as if tears flowed out.
"Fu'er's niece is also friends with His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Zhilan, and Jade Fox in the academy, right, I heard that when I was in Yunzhou, I made a marriage?" Nangong Lie said matter-of-factly.
"Yes, but Fu'er's life is thin, the marriage has not been decided for long, that guy died on the battlefield, I planned to get married in Zhang Luo after the incident, but I don't want to, things one after another, until now, Fu'er is twenty-six or seventeen years old, I am a father, but I feel very guilty!"
Ximen Fuxue snorted lightly in his nose, girl, around, around here, no wonder you have to talk about Wan'er, although my sister often goes to the palace, your daughter seems to go diligently, girlfriends don't have this girlfriend method, not to mention that if you don't have other thoughts, you won't just keep this daughter and not marry.
"As a parent, Fu'er's niece also has a heart?" Nangong Lie couldn't see Dongfang Zhi's thoughts, but he had been in vain for so many years, but he wasn't worried about what threat the Dongfang family would have to the Nangong family, speaking of which, the four great families should be the same in Da Chu, because as long as they weren't fools, they didn't rely so much on them, and they were even a little guarded.
"I said that you went around and around, and you were involved in my family's Wan'er, it turns out that you hit this idea!"
Dongfang Zhi was not annoyed when he was told about it, but said: "What can I do, I think at the beginning, when the King of Chu was still a student, but he still teased Fu'er to say, and the King of Chu didn't care, how could my Fu'er not marry in the past few years!"
Dongfang Zhi talked about the album of the top ten beauties of the Holy Heaven back then, but he was still indignant, if Leng Zhuo knew that what he made in order to make some money back then has now become an important evidence, I don't know if he will cry or laugh.
"According to what you say, wouldn't it be ......!" Nangong Lie originally wanted to refute two sentences, but suddenly thought about it, let alone say that now in this harem, among the ten beauties of the Holy Heaven, several of them are in the palace, and like that Drifting Snow Princess, for the sake of the empire, she almost didn't marry the original Ping'an Hou.
And Nangong Lie also heard that the four wealthy families have also sent people, the Lu family's own family contacted the Nanwu Lu family, and the Wang family seems to have sent the little queen Qingya, of course, the original little girl is now slim, and it is difficult to guarantee that she is not in front of this card.
The four of them have their own thoughts, a drinking banquet will not disperse until the sun sets, Nangong Lie, Beicheng Mingyue doesn't care much, Nangong Yuhu is one of the princesses, although Beicheng Bingxin did not hold a big wedding banquet ceremony to welcome the palace, but the title and the like are also readily available, but Ximen Fuxue returned home a little worried.
Ximen Wan'er has been with him for some years, and she has been staying by her side since she followed Leng Zhuo south, but at that time, Ximen Wan'er was not that old, and besides, he was just a brother who betrayed the family, so naturally it was not easy to ask, and his heart was on his daughter, and he was also very resistant and wary of it.
Originally, he had always been vague about Ximen Wan'er, but now that Dongfang Zhi mentioned this, he couldn't pretend to be confused: "Go and call my little sister to see me!"
"The eldest lady and the younger lady went to the palace, and they came back to say that they won't come back today, there seems to be something over there!"
When Ximen Fuxue heard this, he rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I know, you can go down!"
