Chapter 825 Tea and wine

In the yard full of light fragrance of various plants, Guo Shao couldn't help asking: Can't you get out of your pulse?

Mrs. Lu, who was sitting opposite, had red face, his fingers were very unstable, and he frowned and said: Your Majesty, don’t worry.

Guo Shao had to shut up, and then saw Lu Lan take a deep breath, close his eyes slightly, press his fingertips on his wrist for a long time, and finally said: Change aside.After a while, she frowned slightly: Your Majesty's pulse is a little messy, and it has been more than a month since then. You can't delay any longer. You must take good care of yourself.

Guo Shao said: How can I maintain my care if Mrs. Lu didn’t prescribe medicine for me?

Lu Lan sniffed her little nose and said, "Don't drink."

Guo Shao pondered: The court banquet in recent days.

Lu Lan pursed and said in a low voice: Your Majesty is arrogant, and he only exchanged wine for tea. Who knows?She pondered for a moment and said, "You can't work too hard, at night... at night... Lu Lan's face turned red when she said this, and her voice turned like a mosquito flapping her wings. Don't be lucky that the concubines are too often...

Guo Shao took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth, coughed to the point of being reluctantly, and then he immediately stopped talking.

She picked up her pen and wrote the prescription carefully.

Perhaps, she thought Guo Shao was hinting at something, but she really misunderstood.

Looking at Lu Lan's red face and serious expression, Guo Shao suddenly remembered Li Yuan'er a few years ago.

When she felt like she was in the spring breeze for the first time, she shouldn’t think too much, but when she found out that the person she cared about the most was not her, would she mind?

After Lu Lan instructed the eunuch Wang Zhong who was accompanying him, Guo Shao calmly left the yard.He rode in the imperial chariot and went straight to Concubine Li's palace.

There is a kind of tree in the imperial concubine's palace. The leaves in spring are also red, and they are beautifully mixed among the green trees, but they are not maples. Guo Shao knew that the maple leaves will turn red only in autumn, but he never asked what kind of tree it was.

I was curious every time I saw it, but I forgot it in a blink of an eye. After all, there are often more things that make him care about.

The emperor's arrival made the imperial concubine very happy. She led the eunuchs and palace maids from the entire palace to welcome her. The atmosphere of enthusiasm and surprise was very strong.

After some etiquette, Li Yuan'er asked the palace lady to bring Guo Zhang over to pay homage to his father.

Guo Shao stretched out his rough palm and touched his son's head. He did not ask about his studies, but said: Does Zhang'er like spring?

Guo Zhang was a little afraid of his father at first, and nodded immediately when he heard this.

Guo Shao asked him again why he liked it. Guo Zhang said in a childish voice with an enthusiastic voice: Peach blossoms are very beautiful, and you can also dig out a bird's nest with the emperor!

Haha... Guo Shao laughed after hearing this, and even Li Yuaner and the palace people couldn't help but smile.

Li Yuan'er blamed the child a few words and said: Let's go out and play!

Guo Zhang also clasped his fists in a good manner and said: My son is leaving.

Seeing this, Guo Shao laughed again and said to himself: If he were tortured, he would definitely be relieved and ran away.

He turned to Li Yuan'er and said: I think the most important thing for a child is not his studies.

oh?Li Yuan'er looked at Guo Shao with great interest, looking forward to his round face.

Guo Shao pondered for a moment and said: The most important thing is to make him love all things in this world and have kindness deep in his heart towards people and everything.

After hearing this, Li Yuan'er said softly: When the children grow up, they will be as open-minded as His Majesty.

Guo Shao looked at the pink balls of flowers between the new buds outside the window, and there seemed to be a gust of spring breeze blowing by his heart. He felt very comfortable and felt that there were many beautiful things in the world.

But suddenly he was moved by such a beautiful scenery and the beauty, and felt a little moved. He turned around and saw Li Yuan'er's hair tied up again. Now he is a mother and no longer the beautiful little lady who was in love back then.

Those waiting for the best years, those implicit and bold words, and the reluctant eyes on the pavilion in the snow surged into Guo Shao's heart one by one.

He couldn't help but whisper: Yuan'er, I feel sorry for you.

After hearing this, Li Yuan'er's expression changed and looked at Guo Shao with red lips: Your Majesty treats me well, why do you say this?

Guo Shao lowered his head and thought.At this time, Li Yuan'er said softly again: Only Your Majesty can say such words...

Guo Shao exhaled and said: I have been busy with wars over the years and have really neglected you.

Li Yuan'er smiled and shook her head: Your Majesty, the lord of all people, should put national affairs first.

At this time, Guo Shao reached out and took out a silk bag from his sleeve bag, unbuttoned the red rope tied to the mouth of the bag, put it on the table and pushed it forward: I brought some small gifts to the concubine.

Thank you for your kindness and reward.Li Yuan'er happily opened the bag, took out a string of white coins from it, curiously held it in her hand for a moment, and then quickly raised her head and said, "Oh, I have the expenses of the inner treasury every month, so you don't need your Majesty to reward you again..."

Guo Shao said calmly: Silver is produced in Japan in Toshima. This batch of silver coins is the first batch, and the imperial concubine is also the first to spend such coins.

After hearing this, Li Yuaner was a little flattered. Her white fingers fumbled into the coin and exclaimed, the patterns and characters on it were really finely cast...a round?

Guo Shao smiled and said: Each silver coin is recorded as one round, weighing three coins, and is worth 200 coins of copper coins.They went from Ishimi Yinshan to Tokyo workshops. After they were cast, they went two places: one was to enter the inner warehouse and the other was to enter the sea trade bank.They are like food, and will inject a steady stream of motivation into the entire Daxa!

In fact, Guo Shao really wanted to compare silver coins to fuel and mechanisms to huge machines.

The Neiku was the engine of the imperial war machine. The soldiers of Daxu's imperial guards and guards were only loyal to the emperor because their military expenditure and military pay came directly from the Neiku!

The fuel entering the inner warehouse will launch this huge war machine to realize greater dreams and glory for Guo Shao!

With money, running the war machine will be particularly easy.

The currency of the money house is the driving force for the circulation of industrial and commercial transactions, and the prosperity of commerce will gradually drive the sharp transformation and vitality of the economy!

……

The foreseeable huge monetary income made the Daxu Manchu atmosphere a little fanatic. Not only did the six dukes and other generals actively support the opening of territory, but even the civil servants' opinions changed a little.

Officials from the Privy Council and the Political Affairs Hall planned several national policies, all of which focused on opening up borders and territories.

But Guo Shao is not satisfied with these strategies!Because no matter what the direction of progress is, several sets of strategies are too rigid and orderly.

Guo Shao said in front of more than twenty most powerful ministers in the Political Consultative Hall: If you have to wait to slowly digest the new sphere of influence, the process will be too long and it will take ten years to make it.At this time, it is not too late for me to let go of my hands and circle a big box, and then gradually operate!

Wang Pu politely said: Your Majesty meant to go south to advance to the Dali Kingdom?

Unexpectedly, Guo Shao shook his head.

Wang Pu pondered for a moment, stared at him and said tentatively, Jiaozhi?

But Guo Shao still did not nod. He stood up and walked down, paced back and forth between the ministers on both sides, and everyone stood up one after another.

Guo Shao walked to the front of the large wooden frame that Wei Renpu had just stood, stood still, and pointed out his finger at the bottom of the blank space in the large picture, the Strait of Malacca!

The civil and military officials looked at each other, and some of them looked confused, as if they had never heard of this place name.

Guo Shao said calmly: Dashi and the barbarian countries further westward want to trade in the east, and you must pass this water outlet by sea.I will control this pass to the south, and I will include the entire East China Sea and the South China Sea in the scope of Eastern trade, and all rules will be formulated by Daxu!Guo Shao reached out and drew a big circle on the picture. When countries in the west arrived, commercial taxes and ports of call could be formulated by the court after weighing the pros and cons of each party.

While he was walking, he pondered on his grand idea. He indulged the cannibals in the local trade, which may lead to future troubles.The Jiaolong Army should first establish a port in Luzon and let Daxu merchants go to Luzon; Dashi merchants also go to Luzon and then conduct transactions.

With Malacca as the boundary, the East China Sea and the South China Sea will become the Neihu Lake of the Daxu Dynasty. Within the sphere of influence, no matter Dali's products or grain trade in Jiaozhi Chameng, they can be discussed with it, or convinced by the pros and cons.

After hearing this, the ministers agreed or not, they first praised it.Yang Biao was excited when he heard this and shouted loudly: If you don’t accept Your Majesty, you will use your sword to convince them!

Guo Shao seemed to be inspired by everyone's praises, and now he said solemnly that the harbor city of Luzon was named "Macheng".

The ministers were talking a lot. Guo Shao changed his mind and turned his attention to the north. To the west, he had to completely control the passage from the Central Plains to the Hexi Corridor, and incorporate all the land along the way into the territory. He did not threaten the road again; through the Hexi Corridor, he obtained good horse products trade in the northwest and Western Regions, and promoted Daxun's power to the countries in the Western Regions.

In the east, with the promises before the Japanese war, we marched into Yingzhou, first extending our troops to western Liaoning and gradually expanding to Liaodong...

Guo Shao stood in front of the map, and his mood could not calm down for a long time. This was a grand and great attempt. If it was realized, half of the earth would be included in his sphere of influence!

There is no map in Malacca now, but what does it matter?His many successful experiences made him believe that the emperor's will was stronger than imagined, and there must be a way to achieve his goals.

The blank space on that map is not an untouched place... The great cannibals can reach the coast of Southern Han, and the sailing era must have passed through the Strait of Malacca.

The navigation capacity of this era is limited, but all countries have very weak strength at sea. As long as Xu Jun is a little stronger than other countries, he can take the initiative!

The ministers in the Political Affairs Hall looked shocked and confused.Guo Shao also knew that his thoughts were almost crazy, but if he didn't try, how could he know how powerful the power was in this world?!

I, the son of heaven, all under the heavens are kings, and all the boundaries of the land are kings.As long as you know, all the places you know should follow the order of the Daxu dynasty!Guo Shao calmly looked back and unhumally encouraged the confidence of his ministers.
