At the beginning of October in the first year of Yongning, the mighty eastern patrol team has passed the Gu Pass, and in the process of entering the customs, it is about to arrive in Qingyang City, and this time the tour of the world has been going for nearly a year.

In the car, the emperor could not release the scroll, holding the Xuanchengzi travelogue silk book that Ling Xuanzong paid tribute to read carefully, as for the largest copy of the global map of all countries still needs time to draw, and now there is a small global map of all countries hanging in the car for Mu Sheng to read the strange stories of the world recorded in Xuanchengzi's travels.

According to the content of the book, Mu Sheng imagined in his mind that the customs and customs of various places were very different from those of the Central Plains, and at this moment the curiosity in his heart had flown up, and now he really regretted sitting on the throne, but he could abandon the country and ignore it, and it was not realistic to go to various continents to explore in person, even if he wanted to go, he had to sit down the chair under his ass completely.

Since having this world map that Ling Xuanzong tributed, Mu Sheng has begun to fantasize about opening the era of great exploration that belongs to this world, he wants to build maritime trade as the fulcrum, and completely build the Great Jin Dynasty into a world empire and communicate with all countries, but with the current navigation technology, I am afraid that it is not easy, and it still has to be slowly figured out.

Chinese civilization has never been the result of closed-door construction, it has always been the result of mutual exchanges, inclusiveness and mutual integration of various ethnic groups, such as the greatness of the Tang Dynasty in later generations, is that the Tang Dynasty is willing to communicate and integrate with the people of all ethnic groups around it, and finally created the prosperous Tang Dynasty, which is also the most glorious moment in the history of Chinese civilization, Mu Sheng is already looking forward to the advent of a prosperous dynasty in his heart.

The reason why the Chinese civilization later declined was to a large extent because of the Ming and Qing dynasties, the ruling class was arrogant, and the defense was more important than the outside, limited by the times, the domestic intellectual elite also disdained to open their eyes to the world, the literati doctors, the head of the poor scriptures, clinging to the teachings of the saints and not letting go, only knowing how to learn and excelling, exhausting his life's energy to drill the officialdom, but did not see that the outside world had already undergone earth-shaking changes, resulting in the sinking of the Huanghuang Chinese civilization for a hundred years, he did not want the Chinese civilization of this different world to continue to slide into the endless abyss, He knows that as long as the country is stable, he has the ability to change the historical trend of this era.

At this time, a lazy voice sounded in the inner room of the car: "Senior brother~~" interrupted the wild fantasy in Mu Sheng's mind.

Mu Sheng smiled slightly, put down the silk book and turned around to enter the car, only to see his sister Zhang Lin lying on the couch stretching her waist with sleepy eyes and fluffy eyes, and the quilt that inadvertently slipped off revealed Zhang Lin's jade-like skin.

Mu Sheng stepped forward and pulled Zhang Lin's soft smile and said, "Do you still call me senior brother?" ”

Zhang Lin's face was slightly red, and he shouted softly with some shyness: "Husband, ......"

This way of cruising, Zhang Lin has long fallen into the arms of her senior brother to be his woman, Zhang Lin remembered the cruising time of nearly half a year, the two of them went out on patrol together, like glue and paint, double accommodation and double flying, only the two-person world of her and her senior brother, which made her want to cruise like this until the end of the world.

Zhang Lin said: "After I enter the palace, Your Majesty's harem has three thousand beauties, will you ignore me?" ”

Hearing this, Mu Sheng hugged her jade-like body and smiled: "How come, you will always be my good junior sister in my heart, and you will always be my woman." ”

Zhang Lin looked a little worried, she lay in Mu Sheng's arms and asked softly: "Husband, I'm a newcomer, will the sisters in the harem not get along?" ”

Now that she is about to return to Qingyang, it makes her a little nervous, she knows that from now on, she will compete with other harem women for his senior brother, he is not only her own senior brother, he is also the emperor and the son of heaven.

Mu Sheng smiled and comforted: "Senior sister, don't worry, the ladies have a good personality and will get along very well, and you will get used to it after a long time." ”

Zhang Lin nodded and said, "Well......"

Mu Sheng looked at the beauty she was working hard to irrigate these days, showing a mature charm that was different from that of a girl, and said unconsciously: "Senior sister, you are so beautiful!" ”

Zhang Lin said shyly, "Your Majesty~~"

After saying that, Mu Sheng slowly approached her lips and kissed her slowly......

A few days later, the procession finally arrived in Qingyang City, and the county soldiers who were transferred to accompany the emperor on the parade were rewarded and dispersed, and some of the officers and men of the Northern Army were stationed near Qingyang to assist in the defense, and the lieutenant army took over the defense of Qingyang after entering the city.

After the emperor's guard of honor entered the palace, Mu Sheng hurriedly entered the inner palace to meet with the ladies, and he had not seen it for nearly a year, so he naturally wanted to talk about the pain of lovesickness, and the women saw that the emperor was followed by a woman, and they knew in their hearts, it seems that His Majesty the emperor went out on a long trip to bring back a few women's problems that have been stable, and this time fortunately only brought back one.

Among the women, the highest status is Mrs. Zeng Yunzeng, Mrs. Tian Huitian and Mu Yinaqi, and only three of them have been awarded the title of lady.

Zeng Yun and Tian Hui saw that there were new sisters entering the palace, so they stepped forward to greet each other warmly, they obviously wanted to pull Zhang Lin into their camp, but the camp headed by Mu Yinaqi was unmoved, as soon as Zhang Lin entered the palace, someone came up to set him, which obviously surprised him.

After Mu Yinaqi stepped forward to salute the emperor, he said, "Your Majesty, you have finally returned. ”

Mu Sheng stepped forward with a smile and wanted to take Mu Yinaqi into his arms, but Mu Yinaqi struggled and refused: "Don't, Your Majesty, the sisters are watching." ”

Mu Sheng smiled: "Yes, I'm back, I really miss you all along the way, I didn't scare you because of the Qingyang incident before, right?" ”

When Yun'er heard this, she leaned over and said, "At first, our sisters thought it was a rebellion by a rebellious minister, but I didn't expect that it was Your Majesty, who was wise and martial, and actually took down the Huo family in one fell swoop on the Eastern Tour. ”

Mu Sheng sighed with emotion: "Yes, with the blessing of the ancestors, there was no big mess in the end, and the Huo family is also aware of current affairs." ”

Yang Jin, the head of the inner court, came forward to ask the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, when Zhang Guiren enters the palace, how can he welcome him?" ”

Mu Sheng thought about it for a moment and ordered: "Welcome him with the gift of a beauty." ”

"No." Yang Jin went to arrange Zhang Lin's accommodation treatment in the harem, and the beauty was only under the title of lady, which was equivalent to a concubine.

Mu Sheng chatted with the women for a few words, and then went to Zhangtai Palace to deal with government affairs, and the women knew that the current emperor was already the emperor with real power, and he was not like in the past, he had an empty name, and he knew all day long that he stayed in the harem and soaked in the women's pile and was happy to be a "faint king".

On the way back, Princess Taisha Diamelissa took Mu Yinaqi's hand and asked, "Sister Naqi, why don't you pull Zhang Meiren into our side, she is also a monk?" ”

Princess Taisha and Mu Yinaqi are both from southern Xinjiang, and their living habits, language and customs are closer to each other, and they are both monks, so they naturally come together after a long time in the palace.

When Mu Yinaqi heard this, he smiled slightly and said: "Zhang Meiren, let them fight, the coming day will be long, not to mention that you and I are both monks, with a long life, and there is time to accompany Your Majesty, we don't have to fight for a while." ”

Diamelisa knew it in her heart, and agreed: "Sister Naqi still sees the distance, by the way, Sister Naqi, I made Taisha snacks by myself, why don't you go to my palace to sit and try my sister's craftsmanship?" ”

Mu Yinaqi happily agreed, and said with a smile: "Okay, I haven't eaten the pastries you made for a long time." ”

The two of them are really like sisters in this deep palace compound, and they talk and laugh and go to the inner palace.

In the Zhangtai Palace, Gao Zhong knelt in front of the emperor's throne, and a temple man stepped forward to officially read out the edict of Gao Chongren's position as Prime Minister Zuo.

After reading it, he stepped forward respectfully to receive the edict from the hands of the temple people.

At this time, Prime Minister Zuo was overjoyed in his heart, but he didn't expect that he was really righted, he hurriedly stepped forward to pay a big salute and thanked him and said: "Ten thousand years of the Great Jin, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live, how can the micro minister He De be so favored by Your Majesty, the minister will do his best in the future, for Your Majesty, for the people of the world, bow to the end, and die." ”

Mu Sheng looked at Prime Minister Zuo who was saluting in the hall, and said with a smile: "Aiqing is exempt, in the future, you and I should do our best to do our duty and go to the difficult times together." ”

Gao Zhong stood up and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the minister will not live up to Your Majesty's trust." ”

At this moment, the right prime minister Wang Yi came to Zhangtai Palace to meet the emperor with a solemn face, when the emperor pulled Zhao Shu back to the court in Yue County, the civil and military officials also seemed to smell some rumors, and they had already seen the wind and made many people run to privately slap Zhao Shu, and the emperor returned to Beijing on the way, and he has not given Zhao Shu a clear appointment, he probably guessed that his position as the right minister may not be kept.

As soon as Mu Sheng saw that the right prime minister Wang Yi was present, he said with a pleasant face: "Wang Xiangguo, hurry up and take a seat, I have summoned you here today to talk about something with Xiangguo." ”

Wang Yi bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, please speak, and the ministers will listen." ”

Mu Sheng said: "Wang Xiangguo, along the way, Xiangguo assisted me in handling government affairs, which was very effective, and I also understood that Xiangguo was the pillar of the country, but I had another appointment for Wang Xiangguo." ”

Mu Sheng nodded to Yang Jin to signal the edict to be issued.

Yang Jin, the head of the inner court, stepped forward to unfold the edict and read it out: "The edict says, the right prime minister Wang Yicai is wise and knowledgeable...... From now on, he will be removed from the post of right prime minister, sealed the marquis of Dongting, increased the number of households in the food eup, and promoted to the post of the third prince Taibao, and admired this ......"

Wang Yi didn't listen to the previous compliments, and after hearing the compulsory retirement treatment arranged by the emperor for him, he also knew that the emperor had taken good care of him, and he was a marquis and promoted.

In fact, Wang Yi also knows in his heart that once the son of heaven and a courtier, as an old minister of the first emperor's era, it is difficult for him to stay in this right prime minister's position for a long time, if you don't go, that is to block the path of the new monarch's cronies, and retire now, although he is unwilling, it is not a good result, it is better than being lazy and not going to be driven out of power in embarrassment.

Wang Yi listened to the edict, his face was as usual, and he stepped forward to thank him: "Ten thousand years of the Great Jin Dynasty, Weichen thank Your Majesty for your kindness, and the minister wishes Your Majesty eternal peace and longevity, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

After thanking him, Wang Yi took the edict and withdrew from Zhangtai Palace in a bit of a daze, he knew that it would be impossible for him to return to the core of power in his life.

As soon as Wang Yi, the former prime minister, came out of the palace gate, he saw Zhao Shu Shi Ran coming to Zhangtai Palace.

When Zhao Shu saw Taibao Wang Yi leaving the palace, he probably guessed a few points in his heart, and stepped forward to greet him: "I've seen Wang Xiangguo." ”

When Wang Yi heard this, he smiled, waved his hand and said, "Lord Zhao, Wang is no longer the prime minister." ”

Zhao Shu pretended to be surprised, and asked knowingly, "Oh? Why did Your Majesty remove your Majesty from your position? ”

Wang Yi sighed and said: "Once the son of heaven and a courtier, Your Majesty's move is also a proper righteousness, I think my Wang has been up and down in the sea for more than ten years, it's time to go home and rest, Lord Zhao has taken his leave." ”

Zhao Shu arched his hand and said, "Lord Wang, go slowly." After that, Zhao Shu entered the palace to meet the emperor.

After Zhao Shu entered the palace, Wang Yi faintly heard the shrill voice of Yang Jinxuan, the head of the inner court, outside the palace......

"The edict said, Shaofu Zhao Shu was the auxiliary minister of the first emperor, and he was diligent and conscientious during his tenure in Shaofu, and fulfilled his duties, and now the state affairs are difficult, and I succeeded to the throne soon, and I also relied on the virtuous ministers and auxiliary ministers, from now on, Shaofu Zhao Shu was named the Marquis of Duyang, took over the post of the right prime minister, opened the government and built teeth, and managed the national affairs together, and admired this ......"

After hearing this, Taibao Wang Yi sighed, shook his head and turned around and left lonely......

In the afternoon, in the Zhangtai Palace, after the ministers discussed the state affairs, they withdrew from the main hall, and the left prime minister Gao Zhong looked proud of the spring breeze, only to see the new right prime minister Duyang Marquis Zhao Shu, Gao Zhong came to the front with a smile, and congratulated: "Congratulations to Zhao Xiangguo for taking over the post of right prime minister." ”

Zhao Shu is person is in good spirits at happy events, he bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile: "Gao Xiangguo, you are polite, you and I will be ministers in the same palace in the future, and we should do our best to share your Majesty's worries!" ”

Zuo Xiang said solemnly: "This is natural, sharing worries for Your Majesty, and it is the duty of the minister." ”

The two of them smiled politely on the surface, and then went back to their homes.

Zhao Shu walked out of the palace gate and boarded the carriage, he closed his eyes and was silent, and after a while he opened his eyes again, he whispered to himself: "Sister, have you seen it?" I have waited for more than twenty years for this moment, and if I had been ruthless back then, with my sister's status in the harem, I would have been on the throne a long time ago......"
