There had been a war with Shangyang Kingdom, but now that there was a sudden change, the court was naturally vigilant.

However, with the previous victory, this time Pei Yao mentioned the matter of border changes, and the ministers of the DPRK and China were both civil and military.

Indeed, during the first war, Pei Yao had just ascended the throne and received a bunch of messes from Emperor Chengjing, and it was really difficult to fight.

If it weren't for the prince of Shangyang Kingdom to seize the throne and cause civil strife, the war would definitely have lasted longer, and it was difficult to say whether the outcome would have been won or lost, so before the war began, there were people in the court and China.

But now it's different, Pei Yao first investigated a large number of corrupt officials, and then got rid of those parasitic, inactive and always enjoyed the imperial court's Xu Xungui Gaomen, and the money obtained by these copying officials naturally went into the treasury.

There is also a large amount of compensation after the defeat of Shangyang Kingdom, as well as the previous attempted murder of Lin Chan, Pei Yao knocked Shangyang Kingdom again.

In recent years, Pei Yao's internal affairs have been reformed, the tax is what the people think, and some policy leniency for businessmen, in recent years, Daqi's business has developed very well, and it seems that the commercial tax is low, but there are more people doing business, and the tax money collected is more.

The prosperity and development of Daqi in recent years, the courtiers are all in their eyes, so they are more confident in the face of war.

Especially with the more advanced iron forging method obtained from Lin Chan, Pei Yao had long been ready to attack Shangyang Kingdom, so the sophisticated weapons had been secretly prepared for a long time.

At the moment, it can be said that as long as the Shangyang Kingdom dares to make a move, the army of Daqi will not hesitate to attack.

In the northern Xinjiang military camp, the soldiers of the Huo family army, as well as Huo Mingxuan, the prince of Qin who led the army, had a deep hatred and blood hatred with Shangyang State, and they were always full of fighting spirit.

This battle can actually be said to be what Daqi is looking forward to.

The soldiers are strong and strong, and if you fight him hard, you can't say that you will be able to wave your army north in one fell swoop and expand your territory.

Whether it is Pei Yao or the civil and military officials below, they are naturally looking forward to such brilliant political achievements during their reign.

But the blood of the previous dynasty did not completely infect the harem.

Especially in Fengxuan Palace, the queen is having a headache about this matter.

I finally made up my mind to build momentum for the five princes in the court, so as to set the crown prince as soon as possible, but I didn't expect Shangyang Kingdom to emerge again.

Originally, Pei Yao was still very young, and it was difficult to force him to establish a prince at this time, and now he has encountered a possible war, and now he wants Pei Yao to establish a prince, which is even more unlucky.

Wouldn't it be more difficult?

And when the war was fought, it was when the military generals came out, since the fall of the Qiu family, Wan Concubine's brother Hu Daixu took over the vacant position of the Qiu family, and now he is the governor of the Chinese army in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

is to really pinch a group of people in his hands, and hold the power of the army.

And among the five military governors of the Governor's Mansion, Hu Daixu is the youngest, so he will naturally lead his troops north to participate in the war.

At that time, if you make military achievements, it will be the capital of Wan Concubine, relying on the family, even if Wan Concubine is not favored, she can be a concubine.

Besides, Concubine Wan is still young and in good health, so she may be pregnant one day.

gave birth to a prince, but there was another strong competitor.

The crown prince can't grasp it, but the competitors may gradually become more and stronger, and the queen can't do it without a headache.

Looking in the mirror, she had lost some weight, and the queen suddenly felt tired.

However, in comparison, the atmosphere in the Jade Palace was much better.

"During this time, the affairs of the court are busy, Brother is afraid that everyone is tired and thin, Jing Ruo takes care of the family is also hard, uncles and aunts are old, pay attention to maintenance, and when Bo'er is also growing up, Qingrong, you go to the treasury to pick up some things and send them to Liu's house, which is a little bit of the palace's heart."

Fang Yu instructed while doing the embroidery work.

Liu Qin entered the household department, and what he did was to help Pei Yao enrich his money bag.

Now that there are faint signs of war, it is natural that we have to be even busier, and the preparation of military salaries is a major matter.

As an older sister, she naturally has to cherish her brother's hard work and express her heart.

"Yes, the slave will go later." Qingrong smiled and brought a peach gum bird's nest, "Niangniang eat this first, it's the best to nourish your beauty and blood." ”

"Let's put it aside for now, I'll eat it after I've embroidered these stitches." Fang Yu said softly.

Qingrong nodded, put down the bowl, and came over to see, "Niangniang's craftsmanship is getting better and better, and now there is not much time to do embroidery work, but it is more exquisite. ”

"Your mouth is very sweet, and you have eaten honey today?" Fang Yu glanced at her with a smile, "This palace is also such a strength that can be taken from the boudoir, naturally you can't lose it for a lifetime, the emperor has been used to wearing bedclothes made by the palace himself over the years, this spring, it's time to make a few more for the emperor." ”

"Yes, the emperor and the mother have a deep friendship!" Qingrong teased with a smile.

Fang Yu put down the things in his hand, and reached out to scratch her waist, "It's really married, and my mouth is getting worse and worse!" ”

The master and servant were laughing and laughing, and the goose came in briskly from outside.

"Niangniang, the emperor is here."

Hearing this, Fang Yu stood up, straightened his clothes, and went outside.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Pei Yao had already come in from the palace gate, the spring was cold, and it was still windy today, so Fang Yao didn't want to go forward, so he stood under the corridor and waited for him.

Pei Yao didn't care about her unruliness, and when he saw her standing under the porch, he came over with a smile.

"Your Majesty." Fang Yu bowed slightly.

"Hmm." Pei Yao pulled her up, "What are you doing?" ”

He hadn't been here for days.

"The left and right are to pass the time, what can the concubines be busy with, the emperor is the busy man." Fang Yu pinched his fingers.

There seemed to be discontent in the tone.

Pei Yao said softly, "I've been busy with government affairs these days, didn't I come to see you when I was free, and I brought you some gifts." ”

As he spoke, Hong Zheng, who followed behind, quickly stepped forward with a big brocade box.

"What's that?" Fang Yu was curious.

"A little bit of gadget, looking at the exquisiteness, I brought it to you." Pei Yao said.

Even Pei Yao praised the exquisiteness, it should be good, Fang Yu thought so, opened the brocade box, and really didn't disappoint her.

"What a beautiful fan!"

The folding fan lying quietly in the brocade box is full of light, like a rainbow, and it is shining in the sun, and the fans are carved with exquisite patterns on both sides, fish, insects, flowers and birds, lifelike.

"It's made of shells?" Fang Yu picked up the fan and asked.

Hong Zheng smiled and nodded, "Niangniang is right, this fan is made of shells, and it was just sent from the southern prefectures and counties, isn't this a good day for the second dragon to raise its head in February, and all states and counties have intentions." ”

"Beijing to make a fan, mostly with silk as the material, but also seen the bone fan, such as the ivory fan, it is very rare, this shell made of the fan, but the first to see, the shell is originally thin, it is difficult for this craftsman to carve patterns on both sides, it is really a fine product."

Playing with the fan carefully, Fang Yu couldn't hide his love in his eyes.

"There are many shells and pearls on the seaside, and the local craftsmen naturally have ingenuity that we can't think of, just like it, this set is four fans, you can keep it for your own use, or reward people, whatever you want."

Pei Yao was happy to see Fang Yu, and the corners of his lips were slightly hooked.

Fang Yu also smiled, opened the first few layers of the brocade box, and admired the fan all over before he thanked him.
