Luoyi.

Jinluan Palace, facing the courtiers, holding the affairs of the world.

Zhao Zheng sat quietly on the dragon chair.

According to the standards of the previous dynasty, the dragon chair is made of three kinds of expensive woods, red sandalwood, golden silk nanmu and birch, although it is wood, but the value is quite high.

Such a luxurious dragon chair was collapsed by him three years ago, so he had to show off his skills and fight by himself.

The raw materials are cut in the Imperial Garden, ten years old, and worthless.

The ministers in the palace, compared with the past, are a little distracted, and the court meeting is not in a state for a while.

The gap is too big, the little emperor actually secretly hid so much money, and even some people looked at the terracotta warriors and horses that were originally used to decorate the hall and remember the first emperor, and silently wept in their hearts.

We don't deserve to be in the same dynasty as the Terracotta Army!

An arm is much more expensive than any Shangshu or Shilang!

Really expensive!

The generals don't have as much inner drama as civil officials, but their enthusiastic eyes reveal their true thoughts.

Raise troops, fight against the barbarians!

Make meritorious contributions, establish a career, and find a way to tear off an arm of the Terracotta Army!

It's best to move the whole one home!

The protagonist of today's court meeting is the Ministry of Rites, and Beimeng has sent an envoy here to discuss how to receive it and how the relations between the two countries should get along.

Although Beimeng was driven back to the grassland by the first emperor, its strength is still strong, and the current national capital Luoyi is the old capital of Beimeng, which shows how strong Beimeng was when the Six Kingdoms were in turmoil, and how many people were ravaged by the chaos of the Central Plains.

Zhou Ji, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is eight feet tall, has a beautiful appearance, likes to look in the mirror, is over sixty years old, and is still very handsome.

This old boy is the most headache for Zhao Zheng in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, when the previous dynasty, the Zhou family was in charge of etiquette and music for generations, and there were many.

However, Zhao Zheng acted diligently and did everything simply, which led to a lot of red tape not being taken care of, and he was scolded for this.

Zhou Ji is not the kind of old stubborn who is completely rigid, the previous dynasty died and divided the six countries, Lile was not popular in troubled times, and he was the only one left in the Zhou family to die.

So he actually knows how to be an official, knows how to be a courtier, the little emperor is simple, and he doesn't want to spend too much money on these affairs, as a courtier, he has to share his worries.

It is said that the broken and luxurious donkey cart is really difficult to see, so Zhou Ji saved a year's money, and subsidized 100 million points with his family funds, and hired craftsmen to carefully build Luan Driver in accordance with the travel etiquette of the emperor of the previous dynasty, and planned to slowly make up for the five wheels later.

The next day, there was not even a car left, so Zhao Zheng dismantled the car and sold the parts to subsidize the displaced people outside the city.

Zhou Ji was so angry that he didn't look in the mirror that day, but he couldn't say anything, he couldn't say that it was right to help the homeless, right?

After that, Zhou Ji only beeped, and the actual actions didn't work, but his attitude had to be shown.

This time, Zhou Ji gave advice on the issue of the dragon robe.

This is the easiest thing to solve, the envoy from Beimeng is here, and the little emperor has to meet him, right?

Usually dressed a little shabby, the dragon robe has a few patches, all of them are their own family, even if they are not, they have a reputation for frugality.

You can meet the envoys of other countries, this kind of formal occasion, you have to dress better, respect other countries, and at the same time show the prestige of a great country, otherwise the lord of the Central Plains is not as well dressed as the herdsmen of the northern desert, isn't it a joke?

In the past, everyone had their own difficulties, forget it, now everyone knows that they have money, and breaking a few fingers of the terracotta warriors and horses is enough to make two or three pieces!

Zhao Zheng listened to Zhou Ji's advice, and his mind was no longer here.

Let this old boy speak first, and I'll be stunned for a while.

Regarding the dragon robe, he really thinks that there is no need, even if there is only a palm-sized dragon embroidered on it, the materials are extremely complicated, such as dragon eyes, either gemstones, or pearls, and dragon claws, must be gold threads, and the purity is not high.

It is said that the emperor is full of glow, this is not a lie, people who are covered with jewels and precious metals, can they not shine?

And this dragon robe can not be washed, put it in the front court, manage the ritual department of the dragon robe, if the dragon robe is washed, it is a felony to kill the head, if you don't wear it, it is dirty, you can only press the bottom of the box, and even the person who handles it can not exceed the number of five fingers.

Zhou Ji is still spitting on the stars and flying around, I have to say, Rao is so, still handsome, different from Cao Yufu's fluttering temperament, this old boy is purely handsome, God "appreciates face".

For this reason, he also listed a number of emperors from previous dynasties.

Like Emperor Zhenguan of the first emperor of the ages, Emperor Zhenguan and Emperor Wude, both father and son are thrifty people, but in the dragon robe, they have not done anything to save costs, no matter how thrifty they are, the Ministry of Etiquette has created this high-standard dragon robe and dress.

In the 5,000 years of the previous dynasty, the only Guangshun Emperor who had tried to "reduce" the cost of the emperor's clothes and crown failed, indicating that everything was necessary.

Hearing this, Zhao Zheng was very happy, the old boy's speaking skills are getting better and better, the advice is the advice, the words are still good, Zhenguan, Wude, Guangshun, but they are all recognized as Ming Jun!

But he had his persistence.

"I know what Zhou Qing's family means."

"The etiquette law cannot be abolished, this is the difference between the people of Daqian, the descendants of Yan and Huang, and Mobei."

"But is it really that ugly what I wear?"

Zhao Zheng suddenly stood up and raised his hands high, revealing the patches under his long sleeves.

Even in order to make the patches on the whole dragon robe more obvious, he turned around.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty...."

Zhou Ji's first reaction was that the palace lost his honor.

In fact, there was a thrifty emperor in the previous dynasty, the last emperor Chongzhen Emperor, a dragon robe was worn for many years without changing, and the clothes, pants, and socks in the dragon robe were patched everywhere, the same as the little emperor.

However, Emperor Chongzhen knows face, although he is an acute child, he will deliberately slow down when walking, because if he walks fast, it is easy to expose the patched pants, and he will be seen by others, which is undecorable.

"After a few patches, will it be out of order?"

"Is this thing unsightly?"

"In the northeast region adjacent to Beimeng, cotton cannot be grown, so the people in our border areas can only use hemp to weave clothes, and with the help of various processes, to extend the life of clothes."

"But the warmth effect of hemp is minimal, in order to keep out the cold, they will continue to sew and strengthen the clothes, and sew precious cotton rags into the lining or crevices of the clothes, the thicker the clothes, with the long-term sewing and wearing, will become softer."

Zhao Zheng exposed the patch openly and pinched it: "Do you see it!" Unlike your hearts, this is soft! ”

"A piece of clothing, placed in the northland, sewn and mended, can be worn for decades, even from father to son, and son to son."

"Your Majesty... After all, he is the king of a country..... There is a difference between the military and the civilian...."

"I know."

"The people of the Northland, there is no chance to meet the messenger, and there is no need to be cautious, pay attention to the occasion, of course, do not need to care about the number of patches, as long as it is practical, it is enough."

"But I, today I will wear this dragon robe to meet the Beimeng people who are most familiar to the people of the Northland, and meet their envoys."

"Let the patch on this dragon robe serve as the eyes of millions of soldiers and civilians in the Northland, come and take a look, Mengren!"

"Let's see who is the person who went south to rob the north of my Daqian!"

"Let's see who is the person who wants to step on the Great Wall and invade the people!"

"Look at the clothes that can be repaired, whether the broken mountains and rivers can be repaired!"

"Summoning the envoy of Beimeng to the temple!"
