Xiao Wenxuan's majestic voice echoed in the Chengqing Palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
None of the courtiers below raised an objection, the Great Yu State had just gotten rid of the humiliating tribute to the barbarians, and now a barbarian who didn't know where to run out could make the Great Yu State sign a shameful treaty again?
Moreover, in the eyes of the ministers, the barbarians are the real enemies of the Great Yu Kingdom, these barbarians on the sea are not important, and the sea is just a strange word to them.
As for whether the Dutch will continue to harass along the coast, they don't care at all, after all, it is the king of Chu who suffers, and the Dutch can only run rampant and domineering at sea and dare not go ashore.
"Father, it's just that if you don't agree to the Dutch, the Dutch will completely cut off the sea trade routes, which is a huge loss to the Great Chongqing State." The three princes did not give up.
He doesn't care about the face of the Great Yu Kingdom, all he wants is the stability of his position, and the strength of the King of Chu and his status complement each other.
Xiao Wenxuan's face showed a trace of impatience, he had long been dissatisfied with the king with a different surname, and he was just trying to compromise for the stability of the Great Yu Kingdom.
When the third prince took the initiative to tell him about the Dutch and pulled Xiao Ming to intercede, he was already extremely dissatisfied with the king of Chu.
Although he was not interested in the Dutch, nor did he care about the business of the King of Chu and the Dutch, the King of Chu deliberately concealed this matter, which was contempt for him.
These days, he had been thinking about the mistakes he had made in ascending to the throne, and too much tolerance had not only made these foreign vassal kings appreciate their kindness, but had made their ambitions swell.
Now he could no longer afford to pay for the stupid mistakes of these foreign vassal kings.
He said coldly: "It's a great loss to the King of Chu, if I remember correctly, because of the troubles along the coast, the royal ships rarely go to sea, this coastal is mainly the King of Chu doing business, and even the King of Wei has to look at the face of the King of Chu, now since this disaster is caused by him, he will naturally have to bear it himself, and you remember, you are the third prince of the Great Yu Kingdom, not the nephew of the King of Chu!" β
At the end of his words, Xiao Wenxuan's voice had a strong sense of warning.
These princes are now too disagreeable, and for their own interests, they have completely become the minions of the vassal kings in the capital, Xiao Wenxuan used to open one eye and close one eye, but now his tolerance has exceeded the limit.
The third prince's face turned pale, he had always despised this cowardly father on the throne before, but now a fear suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart.
Since the second prince was deposed to Bazhou, the words and deeds of the princes have gradually been checked, and no one can challenge the supreme imperial power.
Although Xiao Wenxuan's words were for the third prince, his eyes swept over the prince, the fourth prince and other princes.
The prince and the others immediately lowered their heads weakly.
With a cold snort, Xiao Wenxuan continued: "Fiji stays, and the others disperse." β
"Long live my emperor!"
The ministers said in unison, and then gradually retreated, and many of the ministers who left had envy in their eyes.
The Fei family was originally the fourth generation and the third duke, and the protΓ©gΓ©s were all over the world, and now there is a son-in-law who guards the frontier, which can be said to be all there should be.
After the ministers dispersed, Xiao Wenxuan smiled and said, "Since the King of Qi has let you speak, it seems that I have to support him in building ships." β
"Hehe, this still can't hide from the emperor, this time the matter is indeed a bit serious, today only the king of Chu, the king of Wei and the king of Qi have fiefdoms near the sea, among which the king of Chu and the king of Wei are the most powerful, if the Dutch continue to provoke, the king of Chu and the king of Wei still have a way to deal with it, but the king of Qi is afraid that it will be difficult."
"What you said makes sense, in the past, I could still rely on King Wei, but in the last battle of Jizhou, he really disappointed me, I was confused by his loyal appearance, and I never thought that he was also harboring evil intentions now."
Xiao Wenxuan sighed.
"Your Majesty doesn't have to be sad, people will become, as long as King Wei can still support the royal family, this is already a great luck, and now that King Qi is by his side, King Wei will definitely not dare to act rashly." Fiji exhorted.
Nodding, Xiao Wenxuan said: "It's just a pity, I have spent so much money in the treasury for so many years just to raise a wolf cub, as you said, the only way now is to support King Qi, now let's start with this shipyard." β
"Your Majesty is wise." Fiji smiled, "King Qi is the son of His Majesty, so it is much safer." β
"Exactly." Xiao Wenxuan stood up at this time, pacing back and forth, and he said: "You go to Qin Chengming with my will, he is a young eunuch, and he knows exactly how many shipyards and craftsmen there are in the name of this imperial court. β
Hearing this, Fiji was relieved, this Qin Chengming is Qin Rui's father, and Qin Rui has always been good friends with Xiao Ming, and Qin Chengming will definitely go all out in this matter.
After receiving Xiao Wenxuan's will, Fiji responded and turned to leave.
Seeing Fiji disappear in the Chengqing Palace, Xiao Wenxuan sighed and said to Feng Deshui: "I hope I didn't mistake Xiao Ming this time." β
"Your Majesty's eyes are like torches, how can you be wrong, the old slave also thinks that King Qi is good, at least much more down-to-earth than other princes, and His Royal Highness King Qi has never liked to play tricks, but he is ...... with Ning."
Saying the word "Ning", Feng Deshui immediately stopped his voice, knelt down in panic and said, "Your Majesty, the old slave is guilty. β
"Well, it's okay, I'll forgive you."
If it was in the past, Xiao Wenxuan would have been furious, but today he just sighed slightly, the years have passed, and he has gradually forgotten many things.
When Feng Deshui heard this, he got up tremblingly and said with a sneer: "Your Majesty, the old slave has already asked people to transport the hot air balloon outside the city, and today is a good day to climb high and look far away." β
"Let's go." Since boarding the hot air balloon to play, Xiao Wenxuan has become more and more fond of boarding the hot air balloon to climb the heights and lookout, and suddenly walked out with a smile on his face and Feng Deshui.
At this time, Fiji had already arrived at the Shaofu Supervisor and found Qin Chengming, who was calculating the accounts.
"A registered shipyard?" Qin Chengming was surprised.
"That's right, Your Majesty has made an order to transfer the elite from these shipyards to the King of Qi, can you check the account books to see how many craftsmen can there be?" Fiji said.
Qin Chengming said with a smile: "You don't need to check the account books, this is all in the mind of the lower officials, now there are a total of twelve shipyards under the royal flag, including one large shipyard, four medium-sized shipyards, and the remaining seven are small shipyards, these twelve shipyards have a total of 26,000 craftsmen, and if half of them are transferred, it will be 13,000 people." β
"The young government supervisor is really diligent in government affairs, since this is the case, please send skilled craftsmen to Qidi." Fiji arched his hand and said.
Qin Chengming also arched his hand and said: "Since it is for His Royal Highness the King of Qi, the lower officials will definitely do their best." β
