The biggest problem with the imperial expedition is not that the emperor wants to die, or that Emperor Cheng'an's combat effectiveness is very poor, but that it costs money.

Just a lot of urgent recitals were sent to the border for the emperor to approve and then sent back to the capital, and the transportation costs and delays in the middle were very heavy.

Qin Zhanying made a budget report and typed it up, trying to dispel the emperor's uncle's unreliable idea.

Qin Zhanying: You honestly sit on the dragon chair and work to death!

Qiu Yu made a brief summary of Emperor Cheng'an's response - the master wants to fight!

Qin Zhanying felt that the other party was unreasonable, because no matter in terms of cost or actual effect, Emperor Cheng'an was not the best candidate to go to the border pass.

Again, spend money.

And is there any difference between Emperor Cheng'an himself going to change the military system and Qin Zhanying's action? It's just that one man acts with the prestige of the emperor, and one man acts with stratagem.

That is, Qiu Yu stopped Yingying at this time: "He needs this, it's not a matter of cost, the emperor didn't care about the interests when he made this decision, he just wanted to do it himself." ”

Qin Zhanying asked calmly: "Why." ”

Qiu Yu: "He needs military merit, just like a man needs a woman!" ”

If she could, Qiu Yu really didn't want to make this analogy with Yingying, but he thought it was most convenient to understand.

Creatures are easily kidnapped by their reproductive function for most of their lives, women are fine, but men are more likely to be controlled by hormones, after a certain age, they will pursue and crave frantically, and men at the bottom who can't afford to marry a wife will also try their best to prostitute themselves, and if they don't have money, they will break the law and rape, unless they find a higher pursuit than sex.

For example, when Qiu Yu chased into the male frequency readership group in modern times, almost every group had people discussing prostitution, and even the specific contact information and price were available, which was an era when everyone received compulsory education!

Qin Zhanying: "I won't be like this, all the men in the Lu family won't, and neither will you, you must have been an adult in your last life, and you are seventeen years old in your life, but you have always been very calm, and you have shirked other families who want to marry you." ”

Qiu Yu: "Your family can jump into the sea and swim with sea beasts, and even ride a paraglider to the sky, and all of them are very smart, of course, they will not be kidnapped by low-level desires, but no matter who they are, they are all pursuing to satisfy the flaws in their souls, without exception." ”

Emperor Cheng'an is a flawed man, he is worried about his birth defects, and he longs for something to be achieved in this life, he can't have children, the concubine has cuckolded him, he must find something to make up for it from other places, such as using military merits to prove that he is an excellent person.

And to put it mildly, Qin Zhanying's existence is reminding Emperor Cheng'an almost every moment, look, the prince has taken care of the finances, military restructuring, and the collapse of the civilian clique that you can't handle, and the prince is more suitable to be the emperor than you.

As the current emperor, Emperor Cheng'an must have been hit, and there is also a historical problem here, that is, when Emperor Kailong whipped his useless sons, Emperor Cheng'an was also whipped, and his political talent was denied by his father.

Emperor Cheng'an couldn't vent his negative emotions to Qin Zhanying, the only heir, so he simply went to the battlefield he was familiar with to regain his sense of accomplishment, to be honest, he was kind like this.

If you change to other emperors who are not tolerant enough, in the face of an overly good heir, there will probably be all kinds of comical operations.

Qin Zhanying was silent for a moment: "It's not that I don't understand this situation, when I investigated around, I found that there will be fewer criminals where men can afford to marry wives, and these problems will also be taken into account when I am in power." ”

He once bought women from other places to Qiongya Island, balancing the local male and female ratio to increase the fertility rate, and was once considered by all the officials of Zeguo to be a virtuous policy for the people, women have men, their lives have to rely on, and men have women, they will not cause trouble.

This is actually something that Qin Zhanying will do, but Lu Xiaoxuan and Qiu Yu can't do, but in this era, Qin Zhanying doesn't do this, how can Zeguo have so many people? It can only be said that an era has rulers who are suitable for an era.

Qiu Yu persuaded for a while, and when she saw Qin Zhanying sitting on the couch playing with chess pieces, she stopped being verbose and left time for the little prince to think.

Soon, the prince pulled out a guy from the prison who realized the Tao in the dragon field, called Wang Xing, who used to be the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the level of wind and news was very good, and he was good at riding the wall, because he had never really fallen to the faction of the four major pavilion elders, and he only followed the crowd when he accepted bribes, and he was not greedy too much, so he lost his prison to learn "Yu Law", and then repaired the road in the suburbs of Beijing, and he could also bring it back and continue to use it.

Wang Xing was originally wearing prison clothes to mix cement in the capital, but suddenly received the prince's will, and was put forward by Wang Zhouzhou on Monday, escorted to a simple courtyard, took a hot bath, and changed into the original imperial official uniform.

Wang Zhouzhou is a thousand households in Luan's Yiwei, and his power is already very small, which is why the emperor specially sent the prince's people to Luan Yiwei to prepare for the prince's succession.

Although it is very rare to have a happy emperor like Emperor Cheng'an since ancient times, Emperor Cheng'an is very happy in this matter, which also makes many ministers sigh in their hearts, this is a tolerant person, and the four major pavilion elders before were too flamboyant and were not wronged.

You must know that only one Gu family of the four families copied out 28 million taels, and the silver after the other three families copied it was in the hands of the prince, how big is the number? No one knows, the prince said that he would put the accounts in the household department and the criminal department for filing in the future, but this account has not been completed until now, and he only knows that the money that the prince used to build roads everywhere is these money.

For this prince who has reached the age of fifteen, but there is no concubine in the house, he doesn't like luxury, he doesn't play gold and jade antiques, and the main way to engage in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is to create it himself, Wang Yushi's evaluation is that "his private life is innocent to the point of boredom", but he thinks from the bottom of his heart that this is a master who can make a difference.

After the prince finished fighting all kinds of corrupt and incompetent bureaucrats, handled all kinds of practical things, and was able to change the military system of a country, he was still in the mood to play chess with the chess saints in Dajing, it is said that he would lose at first, and then he could draw, and recently he has been able to win narrowly under the watchful eyes of many chess players.

After hearing that the chess saint Fang Yan lost to the prince for the first time, the eighty-year-old man knelt down and begged the prince that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely fight with the Northern Mengqi king Sus! Just because when the Yu country was not established, the people of the world were devastated by the Meng people, and the backbone chess players swore that they would never give the true meaning of chess to the Meng people in this life and strengthen the wisdom of Meng.

Only Nasus, he only sought chess all his life, whoever asked him to play chess, he would go with whomever he wanted, the prince of the Meng people wanted to learn chess, he accepted, and the Meng people asked him to teach the Meng disciples who could defeat the Han chess players, and he also taught.

It's a pity that Fang Yan is inferior to Suss in Go, and he failed several times, and finally resented and lived in seclusion, until Emperor Kailong established Yu before he re-emerged from the mountain, and his greatest wish in life was to teach a chess player who was better than Sus.

As a result, he didn't even teach a disciple who surpassed himself, only a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses in his grandchildren were extremely talented, but when they grew up, Fang Yan and Su Si died of old age.

As for the crown prince, after hearing Fang Yan's plea, he didn't directly agree, but just said truthfully: "If one day send troops to Northern Meng, the army can't be so meticulous about who they killed, and Ruosus unfortunately died in the war......"

Fang Yan: "Then the old man will hold a flowing water banquet to celebrate!" ”

Wang Xing likes to play chess, and he thinks he is a clean official, there are only two concubines in the family, and the silver collected a year is only five hundred taels, which is enough to maintain the life of the family.

Now here's your chance.

After stepping into Chenqing Palace, Wang Xing was very excited, thinking to himself, should he lead the topic to Go to please the prince? But his chess skills are mediocre, if the prince thinks that he is mediocre, it will not be good, or he still makes the appearance of a minister, seems to be honest and serious, but in fact, he says something unique to cultural people and praises the prince?

As a result, as soon as I entered, I saw a two-meter big man playing flying chess that was very popular in the circle of aristocratic children in the capital with the crown prince, and a small plate was placed next to the two of them, which was piled with small ingots of cats and dogs made of pure gold that were only the size of their thumbs.

The big man triumphantly said, "Hey, I've won again." ”

The prince slowly handed over a little golden cat, and the big man stroked the fat cat lying on his lap: "Fat man, look, your master is so competitive today, oops, I have also improved, so I can occasionally win you." ”

Qin Zhanying: "It's a lot of progress, and the dice are playing more neatly." ”

The chess genius who defeated the chess master actually accompanied someone to play flying chess, and the most infuriating thing is that he will still lose!

Chess fan Wang Xing inexplicably felt a strong sense of loss and disbelief, could it be that this flying chess can be more difficult than Go?

However, after winning this set, the two-meter big man lost three sets in a row, and there were more and more small ingots on the prince's plate, and he thought sourly, this Qiu Yu is said to be the prince's playmate from childhood to adulthood, and he never participated in the imperial examination and relied on currying favor with the prince to be promoted to general, which is really good.

When she finally had enough, Qin Zhanying stroked the fine dog and said: "Go and help me persuade someone, persuade him, you are promoted, you can't be persuaded to move, you go to be Mr. Zhejiang Hangdao literacy class, when will three thousand students pass the literacy class exam under you and come back." ”

Qiu Yu: Why is Yingying's style of acting a bit like "go to Siberia to grow potatoes"?

It is also that there is still a shortage of literacy class gentlemen, so the Yu Dynasty has done a good job in the officialdom survival code to be promoted, and it is not good to do literacy eradication.

After the literacy rate of the Yu Dynasty caught up with Qiongya Island, and the north also came down, it is estimated that it will become a good job to see the prince promoted, and it is not good to go to the north to plant corn and soybeans, and there is no heating or anything in these years, and it is very easy for southerners to go to the north to survive the winter and ascend to heaven directly.

Wang Xing is still full of confidence, Yu Shi, he has the responsibility of hearing about the performance, and he has to move his mouth when he performs the matter, just persuade himself, he thinks he can do it.

The crown prince said: "You go and persuade the emperor to dispel the idea of the imperial expedition, you have seven days to prepare for the war." ”

I heard that this Wang Xing is a sharp-tongued and nimble-minded, if even he can't persuade the emperor, then it proves that Qiu Yu's words that "the emperor regards the pro-conquest as the realization of the value of life" are true.

This was Qin Zhanying's last attempt to persuade the emperor to give up his personal conquest.

Seven days later, Wang Xing, who had written more than ten pages of the manuscript, walked into the Longhe Palace with anxiety, and came to report that afternoon as if he was mourning, but he was defeated, and the emperor could not persuade him at all.

Qin Zhanying nodded, and said I know, you pack up and get out, remember to take time to take a walk and take a look when you go to teach the people, you can learn a lot of things.

When Wang Xing heard this, he always felt that he had not completely given up, so he left with a little hope.

Qiu Yu asked Qin Zhanying: "What are you going to do next?" ”

Qin Zhanying: "What to do?" Help my uncle recruit himself. ”

The prince tugged at his cuffs and collar, tidied up his appearance, and got up to go out to work.

It is one thing whether Emperor Cheng'an's ability to deal with the government is one thing, in the matter of inheriting the throne, he has achieved the extreme, Qin Zhanying leads the uncle's love, since the uncle's belief in going to the battlefield is so firm, he will help Emperor Cheng'an at the same time, and carry forward the advantages of this matter to the extreme.

Qin Zhanying first asked people to go to the Propaganda Office of the Criminal Department, and called Wu Mei, the celebrity in the opera industry who followed him all the way to Dajing.

This Wu Mei was Qin Zhanying who came to Qiongya Island when she bought a woman from Bashu Road, she is 1.7 meters tall, she has studied drama with her parents since she was a child, she looks handsome, and she sings in an old-fashioned manner.

Qin Zhanying said to the troupe led by Wu Mei: "You have a new play." ”

Wu Mei sat on the embroidery pier and asked respectfully, "What is the content?" ”

Qin Zhanying: "Make a simple play that the people can understand and like, and play it in five acts." ”

The class leader took out a notebook and began shorthand.

According to the prince's request, the first act, tells about the sins that Meng people made in the early years, this is very easy to write, just pick out a few artistic adaptations of what Meng people have really done, to ensure that those people who have been ruined by Meng people can empathize with them, the protagonist is set as an ordinary teenager, belonging to the vast number of beings who were bullied by the Meng people, his mother has been bullied to death, he and his sister were stuffed under the bed by his mother, and the two depend on each other.

In the second act, it is written that the dragon master came to drive the Meng people away, and the Meng people did not give up, and vowed to come back in the future while retreating to the north, how to rob the people, spoil the people's wives and daughters, and if they could, let this Meng people not even let go of the people's sons.

Class Master: "Huh? ”

Prince: "Huh? ”

The class leader bowed his head and continued to write: "Okay, remember. ”

It's right to write the Meng people hateful enough, anyway, the Meng people really did this, so don't be afraid of being told if they dare to do it.

Alas, when the time comes, the kid who plays this play had better wear armor and helmet on stage, this is the experience of their drama troupe, after all, when playing "Awakening", in the scene where Gu corrupt officials killed the anti-Japanese heroes, the third uncle who played Gu was almost knocked to death with a hoe by the farmer who rushed to the stage.

In the third act, the young man chose to enlist in order to earn food and revenge, and his sister also said that he wanted revenge, so he cultivated and weaved food and cloth in his homeland.

In the fourth act, the protagonist is old, Kailong Ye is also gone, corrupt officials are rampant in the court, the protagonist who is already old has to sing how the front line is short of food, many soldiers go to loot with their conscience, but they can't get past the level in their hearts, and finally they go crazy and slash people on the battlefield and then there is nothing, the protagonist wants to help these people, but there is nothing he can do, in addition to these supporting characters who can't get through with conscience, there are also those evil species who already love to rob, and this kind of people will be punished by the protagonist who is already a hundred households.

In the fifth act, when the protagonist is already gray-haired, he receives the news of his sister's death, at this time the Northern Meng people go south again, and he begins to lament, why I haven't been able to destroy the blood feud of the Meng people back then, my sister didn't wait for the news of the fall of the Northern Meng until she died, I am ashamed of my sister.

At this moment, Beimeng called again, and the protagonist led the soldiers to resist hard, but they were already overwhelmed, and when they were in danger, a man in a yellow robe appeared and led the troops to help the protagonist fight back Beimeng.

Then the man in the yellow robe wanted to help the protagonist up, and said, "The revenge of the year, I also remember, my father fought against the Northern Meng, and my sister also died on the battlefield against the Northern Meng, my child is still young, but he also said that he would lead people to cultivate and weave in the rear to help the ancestors avenge this revenge." ”

Finally, the man in the yellow robe picks up the weapon and hands it to the protagonist, saying, "Fellow robes, rush with me and kill these thieves again." ”

The play, named "Chong", ended with the screaming charge of the man in the yellow robe and the protagonist.

After listening to the prince's request for the play, the drama troupe was dumbfounded.

Qiu Yu was already full of admiration, he had only shared "Is a Minister" with Ying Ying before, and told some big jokes, but he didn't tell this kid how to engage in propaganda, how did Ying Ying realize such propaganda?

It is said that standing on the shoulders of giants can see beyond...... Yingying, who was born in ancient times, is a giant himself.

That night, the prince slept two hours late, sorted out the budget for the Son of Heaven's personal conscription, the cost of conscription and training, and how to publicize it, and submitted it to Longhe Palace the next day.

Emperor Cheng'an read this document that was not thick but had a huge amount of information and was stuffed with dry goods, and finally understood why Empress Lu concentrated on fighting after returning to Zeguo, and never complained about the lack of logistics, and why the territory of Zeguo could expand so smoothly.

Prince, he's really amazing! ：，，.
