Enter the male channel to engage in infrastructure

Those who understand Daoist Qinghe's comments will naturally understand, while those who don't understand don't dare to think too much even if they can guess a few points.

Lou Yu pretended to be indifferent: "What is the meaning of the Lord's words?"

"Forgive me, Your Majesty. Pindao is fortunate to have a glimpse of the secret. It is not a lie. Believe it or not, it is up to you."

After saying that, the whisk flew up.

"Farewell to the poor."

The Taoist team quickly walked away, Lou Yu was still standing silently in front of the altar, and the rest did not dare to disturb him.

Lang Ping felt like scratching in his heart, he vaguely understood the meaning of Guanzhu Qinghe, but he couldn't believe it.

Dust bondage, should it refer to love, love, love, right?

Could it be that His Majesty can't even have love?

That's horrible!

Of course, His Majesty can also have love, but this may bring disadvantages to Sheji.

Xianjun, you should be ruthless and desireless.

Does this Qinghe Guanzhu have any enmity with His Majesty?To say such a comment in front of so many people.

Feng Erbi stepped forward and reminded: "Your Majesty, do you want to go back to the palace?"

Lou Yu's expression was cold: "Go back."

People are very understanding.

No one would be happy to hear such criticism.

Can't Master Qinghe say it in private?If you have to be in front of so many people, won't it make it difficult for the saint to come and go?

Yu Jia returned to the palace, Lou Yu went to Qinzheng Hall, and the rest of the officials went to the Yamen.

Huo Yan followed Lou Yu all the way, stepped into the Palace of Qinzheng, closed the door of the palace suddenly, and asked, "Why did Guanzhu Qinghe say that?"

He stared at Lou Yu closely, his voice was extremely hoarse.

Lou Yu said with a smile: "He is an expert outside the world, and he wrote a comment for me. There is no reason for it."

"I do not believe."

Huo Yan's handsome eyes were deep and deep, as if a raging fire was burning inside, Lou Yu was so scorched that he bowed his head.

"You are trying to silence everyone, right?"

Lou Yu nodded, there was nothing to hide.

He held Huo Yan's trembling hand, "I don't want those people to bother me in the name of ancestors and the country, so I just thought about it."

Huo Yan pulled him into his arms and hugged him tightly.

"Then have you ever thought that there will be no way out in the future?"

Lou Yu held his face, "You are the best, what retreat do you want? I always only want you alone."

The young man is dressed in a dragon robe and a golden crown on his head. There seem to be thousands of stars in his eyes, which are dazzling.

Huo Yan felt that he would die without regret in this life.

Guanzhu Qinghe's comment somehow got out, and there was a lot of discussion inside and outside the capital.

"The Lord really said that? I don't believe it!"

"It's true! Many people have heard it. The temple master said that His Majesty was saved by the immortal king and should not be tied down by our earthly world. After the immortal king finishes his work, he has to go back to heaven!"

"What do you mean? Your Majesty won't even marry a queen? Can't even accept a concubine?"

"The viewer didn't make it so clear, but everyone guessed that the old man meant it."

"Then, after His Majesty returns to heaven, who will succeed him?"

"You ask me, which one should I ask?"

"There are still so many people in the clan, why are you bothering? You can't be the emperor anyway."

"Why can't I worry about it? When His Majesty returns to heaven, I still want to continue to live a good life!"

Lou Ji also heard about it in Shoukang Palace, so he immediately jumped up, blew his beard and stared: "What is the Lord of Laoshizi! How dare you say that about my son! I'll go ask A Yu what's going on? Do you want to smash the Taoist temple!"

"Come back!" Jiang Lan shouted.

Lou Ji was startled, turned his head and asked, "Alan, what time is it, why are you not in a hurry?"

"What's there to worry about?" Jiang Lan glanced at him, "You still don't know what our son is capable of? What's the use of you going?"

As soon as she heard this batch of words, she knew that it must be arranged by A Yu himself.

In order not to accept a concubine, A Yu really took great pains.

Guanzhu Qinghe's words are not clear enough, but "mortal bondage" is nothing more than bondage in the world of mortals. Generally speaking, "contaminated with women" is a typical example.

The master of the temple said that if you are entangled by the world, there will be problems in the world.

Who can afford this bet?

Are there still few "disasters and demon concubines" in history?

Your Majesty is now working hard to govern, and is a wise and heroic lord. If he is really bewitched by women and becomes a foolish ruler, won't there be evils in the world?

Compared with the prosperous Jiangshan Sheji, the emperor has no harem and no heirs, so it seems that it is not a big deal.

Of course, from Jiang Lan's point of view, the "disaster for the country and the demon concubine" are all nonsense, how ridiculous is it that a man's subjugation of the country is blamed on women?

But it does not prevent her from answering Qinghe Guanzhu's comments based on the thoughts of the officials and people in the world.

Lou Ji didn't know what was going on in her heart, and was still running around in a hurry.

"Isn't this batch of words harming A Yu? How will this make A Yu become a queen in the future? How will he accept a concubine?"

Jiang Lan glanced at him, "What do you think the emperor should do most?"

"Of course it is to make the world prosperous."

Jiang Lan: "That's fine."

Lou Ji frowned: "But this is not fair to our son!"

"Don't bother with that god, my son will take care of it!"

During the court meeting the next day, officials came out to discuss the matter.

"I would like to report to Your Majesty, I believe that Qinghe Guanzhu's Taoism is profound, so it should not be a lie."

"Your Majesty, what the Lord Qinghe said has already reached the ears of the common people. They are quite convinced of the Lord Qinghe. If they don't follow the words in the future, they may cause resentment among the people."

Fan Yusheng frowned tightly, and suddenly stepped out.

"Fan doesn't believe it, and he doesn't believe what the master said. The so-called secular entanglement, does it just refer to the matter of love? The three cardinal principles and five constant principles are all listed here. You deliberately distorted what the master said. What is your intention?!"

After hearing the viewer's comments, Fan Yusheng came up with conspiracy theories.

He even suspected that a certain clan colluded with the Taoist temple to do it deliberately, just to make His Majesty have no heirs so that he could seize power and usurp the throne in the future.

"It's better to believe in its existence than in its non-existence!" Another humane said, "Dare to ask Fan Xiang, if what the Qinghe Guanzhu said is true, you may be able to bear the burden of harm to the society in the future?"

Fan Yusheng said angrily: "The theory of gods and ghosts is certainly not credible!"

But the man turned to Yang Guanghuai: "I heard that Xiang Yang is also good at divination and calculation, I wonder if Xiang Yang has a good opinion?"

Fan Yusheng glared at Yang Guanghuai immediately, as if as long as the other party said something that was not good for Lou Yu, he would fight him desperately.

Yang Guanghuai sighed secretly, feeling that His Majesty really played tricks on them.

"Yang believes that His Majesty is now in the prime of his life, so there is no need to be anxious about the affairs of the harem. It is not too late to make plans when the people forget about the comments."

Fan Yusheng heaved a sigh of relief.

He immediately added: "Your Majesty, I agree with what Prime Minister Yang said."

This is indeed the most suitable method at the moment.

The rest of the courtiers agreed.

Lou Yu pretended not to be worried: "That's the only way to go."

In a few years, when he takes over all the powers, these people will no longer be able to interfere with him.

Except for Yang Guanghuai, no one knew that they had already stepped into Lou Yu's trap.

In the blink of an eye, the light is fleeting.

In mid-August, the whole country ushered in the autumn harvest. Due to several wars, except for Yashu, the harvest in all places this year was not as good as in previous years.

But what is amazing is that the grain output of Qingzhou and Cangzhou alone can catch up with the total grain output of the other four or five states combined!

Lin Dajing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Agriculture, reported the harvest situation of each state in the court hall, and the hall was silent.

Whether it is the direct descendants of Qingzhou or the aboriginal capital officials, they are all deeply moved.

Although the direct lineage of Gyeongju is used to the output of Gyeongju and Cangzhou, they have never compared it with the whole country before, and they don't know that Gyeongju and Cangzhou are so powerful.

The native capital officials had never been to Gyeongju, and at most they could see the joy of harvests in Gyeongju or Cangzhou from the newspapers, but how did they know that this fucking was really a bumper harvest!

If there is such a grain output throughout the whole country, why worry about the country not being rich and strong, and the people not being healthy?

Lin Dajing continued to report: "In addition to Qingzhou and Cangzhou, the sweet potatoes in the Jiangzhou experimental field are also very fruitful. Your Majesty, I think that the planting method of potatoes and sweet potatoes is simple, the yield per mu is high, and it is suitable for most of the state capitals in our dynasty. If the climate and soil are promoted throughout the country, it will definitely benefit the country!"

Some aboriginal Beijing officials had never seen potatoes and sweet potatoes, and they were a little unbelievable.

"May I ask Lin Shangshu, are potatoes and sweet potatoes really comparable to wheat?"

Lin Dajing said: "Potatoes and sweet potatoes can both fill the stomach, but they are not as durable as grains."

Wheat grains can be stored for many years as a reserve grain, but potatoes and sweet potatoes have a limited shelf life, which is their disadvantage.

"Then why promote it?"

Lin Dajing devoted himself to farming, with a clumsy mouth, and he said dryly: "Potatoes and sweet potatoes are easy to serve, and are easier than growing wheat, and the promotion is not to replace wheat. Some places are not suitable for growing wheat, but suitable for growing potatoes and sweet potatoes. Why not do it another way?"

The officials were very conservative and felt that this matter was related to the national economy and the people's livelihood and could not be sloppy, so they disagreed.

Huo Yan resolutely said: "Your Majesty, I agree with what Lin Shangshu said. My dynasty has a vast territory, and the climate and soil are different in different places. Therefore, although wheat is grown in most areas, rice is mostly grown in the south. It is said that potatoes Drought and cold resistant, it should be very adaptable to the northern climate, even the northwest."

"Dingguogong's words are reasonable." Lou Yu nodded and said, "Northwest is an important border defense town in our country, but the harvest is not high every year. The soldiers and people are often hungry. I feel uneasy. If the soldiers and people in the Northwest can fill their stomachs with potatoes, It is a great blessing. Lin Aiqing, the promotion of potatoes and sweet potatoes is handed over to the Ministry of Agriculture."

"The minister obeys the order!"

The rest of the ministers still wanted to object, but Lin Dajing didn't give them a chance, and continued to report: "Your Majesty, cotton can also be promoted to keep warm."

Lou Yu thought for a while and said: "The growing season of cotton is too long, and it consumes a lot of land. It is necessary to promote planting on the basis of ensuring food production. Moreover, if the Ministry of Agriculture can increase the yield per mu of various crops, I must have a lot of attention. reward."

"The minister obeys the order!"

After retiring from the imperial court, Lou Yu came to Qinzheng Palace to deal with government affairs as usual, and he did not forget to order Feng Erbi:

"The courtiers have to go to the court before dawn, and it must be too late to have a good breakfast. Take some prepared potatoes and sweet potatoes from the imperial dining room, and send them to them while they are hot."

Feng Erbi responded.

The yamen of Jiubu was in the imperial city, and the courtiers got up before dawn every day, ate a few bites in a hurry to fill their stomachs, and rushed to Guangde Hall to pay their respects.

When the court meeting was over, they used their money to entrust some low-level palace servants to go to the palace gate to get some food.

Outside the palace gate, servants from various prefectures were waiting with food boxes.

This is the unspoken rule of the imperial city. The guards guarding the gates have to check the food boxes of each prefecture every day.

The adults of all ministries are eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the food.

As a result, I didn't wait for my own food box, but I waited for the imperial gift!

Feng Erbi smiled and said: "Your Majesty appreciates the hard work of you adults, and specially ordered the imperial dining room to make some food to reward you."

Everyone knelt down: "The minister waits to thank Your Majesty for the gift!"

"Present them all." Feng Erbi ordered the servant.

The imperial box was opened, and a strange smell instantly filled the whole room.

Really fragrant!

Lou Yu asked the imperial dining room to cook roasted sweet potatoes and mashed potatoes.

In order to keep the eating style elegant, there is also a small spoon next to the roasted sweet potato, which can be eaten by digging.

After being instructed by the palace attendant, all the ministers tore off the skin one after another, dug out the red potato meat inside with a small spoon, and put it in their mouths.

The sweet taste instantly dispels all hunger pangs.

Really delicious!

The mashed potatoes are covered with a layer of special sauce, but it will not affect the original taste of the potatoes. The delicate and soft taste of the mashed potatoes also makes the ministers full of praise.

A sweet potato and a bowl of mashed potatoes are enough to satisfy them.

The clever minister asked: "Boss Feng, could this be the potatoes and sweet potatoes Lin Shangshu mentioned?"

Feng Erbi nodded: "That's right, after the harvest of potatoes and sweet potatoes, some of the highest quality were sent to the palace immediately, and His Majesty wants you to try something new."

"It's really delicious! If it can be promoted, it will indeed be a blessing to the people of Dasheng!"

Captured people in one go.

All the other ministers agreed.

It's because they are narrow-minded, so there should be more varieties of such delicious food!

After the autumn harvest, Lou Yu's birthday is approaching.

But the strange thing is that Huo Yan has been too busy to see anyone these days.

Lou Yu was puzzled and asked Feng Erbi: "What has Duke Ding been up to these days?"

"I don't know either." Feng Erbi shook his head.

Where can he find out the whereabouts of Ding Guogong?

Huo Yan has several titles on him.

The Duke of Ding is a title; the Grand Marshal of the World is in charge of conquests, and he will be busy with military affairs only when there is a war; as for the Northwest Commander, Yang Ji'an is now acting as the Northwest Commander, so it stands to reason that he should not be busy.

Except for the military affairs of the General Guards and the Gyeonggi Garrison on weekdays, Huo Yan spends the rest of his time with Lou Yu.

How come the closer it gets to the birthday, the more it disappears?

A flash of inspiration flashed in Feng Erbi's mind: "Your Majesty, is the Dingguo Guild secretly preparing a birthday gift?"

Lou Yu's eyes suddenly brightened: "It's possible."

In the past few years, Lou Yu will receive gifts from Huo Yan every year on his birthday, which are all kinds of auspicious seals.

Although there is nothing new, every auspicious sentence carries Huo Yan's pious blessings.

This time it will not take so long to engrave a big one, right?

Forget it, you will find out on your birthday.

Lou Yu wasn't interested in his birthday party, but felt strange that his second sister and the others hadn't returned home.

It took about 20 days to deliver the letter from the capital to Zhannan.

Lou Yu sent the letter at the end of May, so if nothing unexpected happens, it will definitely arrive in late June.

If the second sister and the others set off in late June, it would be impossible under normal circumstances not to arrive in the capital for nearly two months.

Even if they have something to do, they will send a letter to explain.

He had asked Anbu to investigate before, and judging by the time, it should be soon.

Just as he was thinking, Feng Sanmo came to report.

"Your Majesty, the Anbu found out that Princess Ning Xuan and her son-in-law are no longer in Zhanzhou Mansion, and their whereabouts are unknown."

Zhanzhou is Zhannan, but because it used to be too close to the south, that land was not under the jurisdiction of the central court, so everyone called it "Zhannan".

Later, the founding emperor sent troops to subdue Zhannan and changed it to "Zhanzhou".

In other words, Zhanzhou had always been in a state of tribal autonomy before this dynasty.

The local tribes are deeply rooted and luxuriant, and they do not obey the jurisdiction of the imperial court at all. The conflicts between them have gradually intensified, and sparks have frequently sparked in recent years.

The son-in-law Liang Pei was the magistrate of Zhanzhou, and he had written to the imperial court many times, but the imperial court just ignored him.

Perhaps for Huizong, those poor mountains and rivers in the south are not in his consideration at all.

Not long after Lou Yu ascended the throne, he started work on post-war reconstruction in various places and failed to free up his hands to govern the south. However, his second sister hadn't returned, so he had to think carefully, so he asked Anbu to investigate.

Unexpectedly, it was such a result.

The prefect and his wife of Zhanzhou have disappeared!

Lou Yu frowned: "Even Anbu couldn't find the princess and son-in-law?"

"Still investigating." Feng Sanmo said ashamedly.

A stern look flashed across Lou Yu's eyes: "Where's the state government garrison?"

"The garrison is still in Fucheng, and the princess and son-in-law disappeared on the way back to Beijing."

Lou Yu: "..."

When Lou Ling and Liang Pei entered the Beijing Miansheng, they would definitely bring tribute and accompanying guards.

Such a conspicuous team did not leave any traces.

Either they crossed collectively, or a group of people were able to loot them without anyone noticing.

The terrain in the south is complex, with many trees, and the field of vision is not wide enough, but the forces that can completely "disappear" the court officials are probably only those deeply rooted tribes.

"They are so brave!"

Lou Yu slapped the table, his brows and eyes were angry: "Go, call Ding Guogong and Duan Heng over!"

After a while, Huo Yan and Duan Heng entered the hall one after another.

Seeing Lou Yu's uneasy expression, Huo Yanxin also pulled it, and asked softly: "What happened?"

Duan Heng:?

Why do you feel that Ding Guogong speaks to His Majesty in a strange tone?

Moreover, Duke Ding seems to have forgotten to salute.

Duan Heng kowtowed obediently, and when he got up, he saw that His Majesty's face had softened a bit.

"Duan Heng, you are in charge of the military department, can you understand the military affairs of the three southern states?"

Duan Heng has only been in office for more than two months, but he is very diligent and has made up for the situation in all parts of the country, but he knows a little bit.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, when the dynasty was first established, Taizu sent troops to subdue several tribes in the south and set up three prefectures, namely Pingzhou, Longzhou and Zhanzhou. Each prefecture and garrison were set up, just like other prefectures. .It’s just that the indigenous tribes in the three states also have their own armed forces, and the imperial court couldn’t completely subdue them, so there has been a stalemate.”

"Why can't you surrender?"

Duan Heng thought about it: "This..."

Huo Yan said: "There are many jungles and rivers in the south, and the terrain is complex. It is a natural barrier to the officers and soldiers of the court, but in the eyes of the local tribes, it is just their back garden."

"That's right," Duan Heng nodded again and again, "I once read in a self-reported handbook of the founding generals, saying that when they went to fight in the south, those tribes were very cunning, and if they couldn't fight, they went to the dense forest. , it is easy to get lost, and there is a lot of miasma in the forest, the court really has nothing to do."

"Then how did you conquer the Three States in the end?" Lou Yu asked.

Duan Heng said: "There is only a stalemate. Those tribes can't stay in the mountains and forests all their lives. They have to come out to farm for a living, and the officers and soldiers of the imperial court are not used to the climate in the south. They get sick and die. In this way, both sides I can't stand it, so I can only negotiate a peace."

"The result of the peace negotiation is that these tribes accept the jurisdiction of the imperial court, but they must retain their own armed forces."

Lou Yu frowned and asked, "Is there really no way to subdue them completely?"

"It was impossible to do it before," Huo Yan looked at him firmly, "but it's not impossible now. Your Majesty wants to completely solve the independence issue of the three southern states?"

"That's right." Lou Yu said solemnly, "All along, the imperial court has been beyond their reach, which has made them feel aggravated. This time, they can't ignore it."

He told Duan Heng: "After you go back, according to the geographical conditions in the south, make a feasibility analysis report on fighting the three states head-on, and hand it over to me as soon as possible."

Duan Heng looked awe-inspiring: "I obey the order!"

After he withdrew, Huo Yan immediately asked: "What happened to the south?"

Lou Yu looked worried: "Second sister and Liang Pei disappeared on the way back to Beijing."

"Anbu didn't find out either?"

"Not yet."

Lou Yu said: "However, most of the information collected by the Anbu is through the eyes and ears, which cannot work in the three southern states. Once they get into the jungle, no one can see or hear them."

"You can send a special battalion and Governor Jiang to investigate." Huo Yan suggested.

Governor Jiang is Jiang Bo, the current governor of the Navy.

There are many jungles and rivers in the south, the navy can come in handy, and the special battalion has rich experience, and can also go deep into the jungle to search for traces.

Lou Yu nodded: "I have asked Luo Yi to return to his ancestral home, Longzhou, to have positive contact with the Longzhou tribe. I hope he will not let me down."

Longzhou, Pingzhou and Zhanzhou are the administrative regions divided by the Dasheng court for the convenience of jurisdiction.Before the division, the three states had always been a whole, and the various tribes lived together.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

With so many people, someone has to be the boss, right?

The powerful tribes seem to have become the local emperors, and it is precisely because of this that they extremely reject the court.

Why should he accept the jurisdiction of the court when he can be a happy and happy emperor?

Only a fool can do it!

But the founding emperor at that time was very determined, and the two sides were at a stalemate, and in the end they could only take a step back.

Among them, the three most powerful tribes live in the three states, and they do not interfere with each other.

In recent years, various tribes have become more and more dissatisfied with the "interference" of the imperial court, and they have begun to unite against the government.

The people of the tribe are used to obeying the leader and are very wary of the government.

It can be said that it has not been easy for Liang Pei to be an official in Zhanzhou for the past few years.

There was a very important reason why Lou Yu sent Luo Yi there earlier.

Luo Yi's ancestral home is Longzhou, and his father once worshiped the right servant of the Ministry of War. Although the tribe rejects the imperial court, Luo's father is a golden phoenix who flew out of poor mountains and rivers. Influence is still quite good.

The Luo family was rehabilitated, and it was reasonable for Luo Yi to return to his hometown with Father Luo's spiritual tablet.

Those tribes would exclude outsiders, but never their own people.

Luo Yi will quickly take root in the tribe.

The largest force in Longzhou is the Banyan tribe. The whole tribe respects the banyan tree and believes that the banyan tree can bring good luck to the people.

Lou Yu needed Luo Yi to gain the trust of the Banyan tribe's chief, participate in various affairs of the tribe, and wait for an opportunity to divide the tribal alliance of the three states.

He originally planned to boil the frog in warm water, but now that the second sister and Liang Pei disappeared without any reason, he couldn't continue to wait.

He must win these three-state tribes!

Huo Yan said: "I will choose the special forces to go to the three states."

"Okay." Lou Yu suddenly grabbed his wrist, his eyes trembling slightly, "Ayan, there are not many generals available in court, I..."

"I know." Huo Yan smiled, his handsome eyes were deep, "The jungle is difficult to break through, I really want to try."

He comforted Lou Yu with a gentle voice: "The disappearance of the princess and the son-in-law in the boundary of the three states is most likely caused by those tribes. They are not stupid, and it is impossible to really hurt the lives of the princess and the son-in-law. Don't worry too much. "

Lou Yu naturally understood.

Or, those tribes didn't care about government affairs and didn't know about the new emperor's enthronement, so they recklessly tied up Liang Pei and Lou Ling, only treating them as ordinary court officials, controlling their actions, and preventing them from reporting to the court.

Or, those tribes know the identities of the two and just want to use them to negotiate terms with the court.

No matter which one it is, they should not harm the lives of the two of them, after all, they don't want to really fight against the court.

But they didn't know that Lou Yu was extremely defensive.

They also don't know how the new emperor of Shengguo sat on the Dragon Throne step by step.

Soon, Lou Yu secretly dispatched sailors and special elites, disguised as a large caravan, as the vanguard, and sailed all the way to the south.

On August [-]th, the golden wind is rustling, and the wild geese are flying south.

The Northern Mission enters Beijing.
