Shoufu is under a lot of pressure today

Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading!Don't forget to spread the word.

Ever since, Gongsun Sheng attended free lectures every day, shared the same interests as Li Sumou, and learned a lot, so he directly called Li Sumou as his teacher.If you ignore the envious and jealous eyes of other officials, you will still make money in general, but it is just a path of no return for a lonely minister, which is really sad and lamentable.

Luo Lijing smiled knowingly when she heard this, she thought that Gongsun Sheng was like Li Sumou, two foxes, one big and one small, would be a good match.Now, let her speak.

Generally speaking, the banquet went smoothly, except that Lou Junming "missed" and bumped into the maid who came to pour the wine, and the wine spilled all over his body.Lou Junming went down to change clothes, but it didn't cause much trouble.

As the banquet was coming to an end, Chu Muxi presented a congratulatory gift, a piece of exquisite jade, plus two writing brushes with jade pen holders, and an ivory pen holder plus a coral tree.The price is priceless, which is enough to show that Mu Guo is rich and powerful.

In contrast, what Lou Junming took out was much more simple.Some things unique to the grassland are fresh, but their value is much less.However, it's not that Di Guo deliberately neglected it. He really couldn't get it out, and the national treasury was already in a deficit, so he was helpless.This time being compared, there can only be suffering.

After all these things were removed, Chu Muxi stood up again and said, "Your Majesty, there are still two rare things, which are foreign things, and I will give them to Your Majesty."

"Oh?" Luo Qiyu raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said, "I have a heart."

With a wave of his hand, Chu Muxi brought a set of western-style tableware and an oil painting, which depicted western buildings, streets, crowds and the morning light.

Luo Qiyu's eyes lit up when he saw the painting, he looked very interested.Chu Muxi saw Luo Qiyu's expression, and knew what Luo Qiyu wanted, so she saluted and backed away with a smile.In this way, his purpose is achieved.However, if Chu Muxi learned of the influence of this painting, whether he would send it back is another matter.

This portrait is of a butterfly flapping its wings, which will eventually revolutionize an entire continent.Now, of course, it's just a painting.

Chapter 51 The Change of Xiangzhou

"Your Majesty, Muguo wants to do business with foreign countries and would like to ask for a seal. I hope His Majesty will approve it." Chu Muxi mentioned this matter while Luo Qiyu was in a good mood, with a natural expression on his face, as if Just remembered it suddenly.

It is good that the border trade between Muguo and foreign countries does not involve the national level. It is just a matter of turning a blind eye and letting the merchants do it. If you want to expand it, you still have to get the consent of Jingguo.

Luo Lijing raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, this conspiracy played by Chu Muxi is not offensive at all, the emperor likes this kind of person, this is considered a good thing, and she shouldn't refuse it.

Sure enough, Luo Qiyu laughed when he heard it, and he was very happy, "Okay, a few days ago, the Minister of the Ministry of Accounting mentioned the matter of opening up the coast to trade, but now the two things collide. It's just right, let the Ministry of Accounting prepare it together." ."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Muxi thanked him neither humble nor overbearing.Luo Qiyu couldn't help but nodded.

Luo Lijing squinted his eyes, his thoughts turned a few times, the corners of his mouth raised a shallow arc, like a fox who was scheming, and said: "Since we want to trade, do we have to formulate relevant tax policies?" Okay? If that’s the case, why don’t Prince Muguo stay here for a few days, discuss and come up with a result before leaving?”

Chu Muxi lowered her eyes for a moment, frowned imperceptibly, and discussed with Jing Guo that next year's tribute must be more than this year's amount, but then she thought about it, in this case, Jing Guo sent troops to protect the trade zone and the border. , he can also mention that Mu Guo's military strength alone may be a bit difficult. After all, in terms of combat effectiveness, Mu Guo's army is still not as good.

"Your Highness said that Chu has this intention." Chu Muxi spoke very modestly, but in her heart she was thinking about whether she should do her best to make friends with this newly promoted empress dowager.After all, the emperor of Jingguo was still sitting in the upper position, and the princess directly spoke about political affairs, and the emperor didn't see any displeasure. He might have underestimated this person.

Luo Lijing nodded and smiled in satisfaction, without saying anything.

Luo Qiyu glanced at Luo Lijing calmly, with a slight smile in his eyes, and then turned his gaze to the fourth prince from Di Guolai.

Lou Junming seemed to be in a hurry, but after all, he couldn't bear face, so he couldn't sit or stand.This time he came to congratulate him, he didn't say a few words, and he went back earlier than the people from Muguo, so he couldn't save face after all.However, the incident happened suddenly, and he couldn't think of any good way at this moment.

Originally, Emperor Di was planning to let Lou Junyao come. After all, the two countries just got married, so it would be good to get acquainted.However, Lou Junming took over the job on the grounds that the newlyweds should not be separated for a long time.

Lou Junyao was depressed for a long time because of this, and ran to find Song Yixin, hoping that Song Yixin could help to speak, but Song Yixin sneered for a while, saying that she had a relationship with Jing Guo, so she rushed forward, afraid that others would not know your begging Did you get the support of Jingguo?Lou Junyao got a dusty nose and walked away dejectedly.

The banquet ended smoothly, Mu Guolai and Di Guolai came out of the hall one after another.This time, there was no need to stay in an inn, but in a place exclusively for envoys.

The missions walked towards the outside of the palace one by one, and when they came to a bend, the eunuch leading the way suddenly stopped, and everyone looked forward.Two eunuchs carried a man over. The man was covered with a white cloth covering his head, so his face could not be seen. The white cloth was stained with blood.The plain white hand and a wrist were drooping on one side, indicating the identity of the deceased. Female, combined with this "funeral" method, could only be a court lady.

Everyone dared not speak too much, it is better to take care of the affairs of the palace, not to mention it is not their turn to take care of them at all.Only Lou Junming's face turned pale, his back felt cold, and his heart kept beating, wondering if the people from Jingguo were ringing the alarm for him.

In the hall, Luo Qiyu looked at the person standing in front of him and asked, "Is everything done?"

The leader of the dark guard nodded and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"Go down, I'll keep an eye on you, if you make any small moves, take them down on the spot." Luo Qiyu ordered, waving his hands to let people go down.

The leader of the dark guard took the order and left.

Luo Lijing glanced at the back of the leader of the hidden guards, and then said: "Father, that Lou Junming, is he really going to do something small?"

Luo Qiyu smiled meaningfully, and said: "It's best if you don't do it, if you do it, let him come and go."

Luo Lijing squinted his eyes, this time he pulled out a nail that Di Guoan had planted in the palace, and it was used as a warning. body, not to mention what useful information can be obtained.

Lou Junming thought that by changing his clothes, he could get close to Di Guo's nails and make some arrangements, but unexpectedly, he was noticed by the hidden guards.No matter what Lou Junming ordered, the maid was killed before she could contact the next person.

In Xiangzhou City, the rhythmic sound of horseshoes sounded on the streets in the city. All the shops and shops were closed, and rows of soldiers quickly gathered on the streets in the city. Almost everyone in Xiangzhou City knew a piece of information. Home is going backwards.Even the air was filled with tension.

The Rong family played the banner of "the side of the Qing emperor", but the target was not Luo Lijing, but Qiu Xinian, the national teacher.Everyone in Jingguo knows that every major decision of Jingguo is inextricably linked with the national teacher.As for whether the canonization of the princess was led by the national teacher, the Rong family didn't really care, they just needed a name to raise their troops.

It is difficult to raise troops to calm down, and the Qing emperor begged the emperor to appoint the third prince as the crown prince, so as to rectify the fate of the country.This is the slogan uttered by the Rong family. This slogan has just been released, but not many people responded.For one thing, the turmoil caused by the canonization of the princess has calmed down a lot, and most people have accepted this setting.Second, if you raise troops rashly, if you offend the emperor and fail, then it will not be so easy to solve.Even if you have that heart, you have to wait and see again, so as not to get burned.
