Enter the male channel to engage in infrastructure

The object of Huo Qiong's marriage is Chen Xuanshen.

The two met each other when they were young, and shared the same goals. They have experienced the turmoil and stability of these years together, and they have long planned to be together for the rest of their lives.

She and Chen Xuanshen had treated many patients and saved many lives, so the wedding day was full of guests and guests.

Huo Xuan drank the wine, sighed and said to Huo Yan: "Uncle, Ah Qiong will be part of the Chen family from now on, I feel really uncomfortable."

"What is the Chen family?" Huo Yan glanced at him, "She will always be the Huo family."

Huo Xuan drooped his head, "That's the reason. I hope that boy Chen Xuanshen can understand. If he treats Arjun in the least bit badly, I will never forgive him."

"Remember what you said." Huo Yan said in a deep voice.

Huo Xuan took a sip of wine, "I will!"

From the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of his uncle's smiling eyes.

He couldn't help asking: "Uncle, are you so happy that Ah Qiong is getting married?"

Huo Yan immediately restrained his expression, and said lightly: "Marriage is a happy event, why are you unhappy? What's more, this is Arjun's own choice. Shouldn't you be happy to be married to someone you love?"

Huo Xuan: "..."

How could he hear a sour feeling?

But thinking about it, his uncle and His Majesty probably won't be able to get married.

Lou Yu originally planned to attend Huo Qiong's wedding today, but the court suddenly received a military report, and he had to deal with it.

So he could only let the palace people go to give the congratulatory gifts.

When they got married, the emperor sent gifts to the door, that was the happiest!

Everyone in the world knows that the Holy Lord believed in Duke Ding, and Huo Qiong, as Duke Ding's niece by blood, was naturally quite favored.

The guests were envious for a moment.

When the wedding was going on, Lou Yu was discussing the military situation with Duan Heng in the Palace of Qinzheng.

"Your Majesty, in recent years, our merchant ships have often been robbed by pirates at sea, and many fleets have suffered heavy losses. This time, the pirates were particularly rampant. They not only robbed the goods and money, but also robbed many people. Fortunately, one of the boatmen managed to escape. Go back to Cangzhou Port and report to the Cangzhou government office."

"Who are those pirates?" Lou Yu asked in a deep voice, "Why didn't you report to the court before?"

"I heard from the boatman that the group of pirates came from the East and some from the South China Sea. They all spoke incomprehensible words. In the past, the group of pirates only collected some tolls, unlike this time they fought and killed, so they didn't think about it before. Report to the officer."

To put it bluntly, they never thought that the court would take care of it.

After all, it is far away on the sea. Will the imperial court really care about the affairs of the sea?

Lou Yu used to live in the era of information explosion, and he knew the importance of coastal defense, so he has been training and developing sailors all these years.

In addition to sailors, seagoing ships are also constantly improving. Today, the largest ship is 45 feet long and [-] feet wide, and can accommodate thousands of people.

After supporting for so long, it's time for those sailors to move their muscles.

Lou Yu asked, "Where is the stronghold of those pirates?"

Duan Heng replied: "Pirates are very cunning, and merchant ships will not go out of their way to inquire about them. It is still unclear."

"Pass down the order to command Jiang Bo to lead the navy to rescue the common people and wipe out the bandits."

As soon as the imperial edict was sent out, a small head poked out from outside the Hall of Qinzheng, with the horns dangling from side to side.

Lou Yu laughed: "What are you doing sneakily? Come in."

He never came to Qinzheng Palace with two little guys, the sooner he got in touch with some things, the better.

Lou Po dragged Lou Gu in, ran to Lou Yu's knees, lay on his legs, raised her face and said, "Brother, I heard that Qiong Qiong got married today, can brother and I go out of the palace to see?" wedding?"

Lou Gu also looked at him expectantly.

Lou Yu shook his head seriously: "I'm afraid not."

"Why?" The little girl's eyes were full of mist, "I heard that marriage is only once in a lifetime, if you miss this time, there will be no next time."

Lou Yu touched her head, "At this time, the wedding is over, so I can't see it even if I go."

"Okay." Lou Po lowered his head sadly.

Lou Gu was also a little disappointed.

The two are at an age with a strong desire for knowledge. They have never seen a wedding, so they naturally want to join in the fun.

"If Master hadn't left a lot of homework yesterday, brother and I would have gone earlier today."

Lou Yu felt that the two of them were quite persistent.

"I'll take you there again when I have a chance next time."

Two small immediately cloudy to sunny.

"However, this opportunity is not given to you for nothing." Lou Yu teased deliberately.

Lou Po is already used to it, and he would say that every time my elder brother wanted to test her and his younger brother.

She immediately stood up straight, with her small hands behind her back, and her black and white eyes were full of fighting spirit.

"Brother, ask!"

Lou Gu followed suit, with an awe-inspiring expression.

"During the family dinner last year, Uncle Jiang Bo and Uncle Yuan Ming told you many interesting stories about the sea, do you still remember?"

The two nodded.

Uncle Yuanming also gave them a lot of beautiful conch!

"Then let me ask you, what should I do if my Dasheng people are robbed by pirates at sea?"

The two frowned and thought hard.

"Don't rush to answer, think about it before you speak."

Lou Yu let the two of them think about the countermeasures, while he read the memorials himself.

Just as he was about to put pen to paper for his reply, Lou Chu raised his hand.

Lou Yu nodded to signal her to say.

Lou Po said solemnly: "Brother said, those who offend our Dasheng will be punished even if they are far away. Pirates who rob our people in Dasheng are committing an offense against our Dasheng. We should exterminate them so that they can never make trouble again!"

"But pirates are very cunning. We don't even know where their stronghold is at present. Pirates are different from bandits. Bandits can only make trouble on a mountain top, but pirates can be unscrupulous in vast sea areas, so it is not easy to eliminate them."

Lou Gu asked, "Can't Uncle Jiang Bo do it too?"

"What are you referring to? Do you mean eliminating the pirates this time, or eradicating the pirates completely?"

Lou Gu wrinkled his small face: "The bandits and robbers can't be wiped out completely, and the pirates can't either, can they?"

Although the imperial court has not stopped suppressing bandits over the years, bandits are like leeks, they regenerate once they are harvested.

Lou Yu never thought that it could be eliminated completely. After all, in modern developed society, there are still many people who want to get something for nothing.

Security issues will always exist.

He nodded and said: "You are right. The rampant pirates will inevitably endanger the fishermen and merchant ships along the coast, but our navy cannot chase them day and night. So, what should the court do?"

Lou Chi frowned and asked, "Who are those pirates?"

This is exactly the same as what Lou Yu asked Duan Heng just now.

He said: "Oriental people, there are also Nanyang people."

Lou Chi asked again, "Why are they pirates?"

"There are many reasons, maybe it's because of poverty, maybe it's because of the desire to conquer and kill."

Lou Chi said angrily: "They hurt the people of Dasheng, so let's fight back! It's best to make them dare not come again!"

"But if we want to fight back fiercely, the navy must be strong, the warship must be mighty, we need to find the pirate's lair, and we must kill them with one blow!"

"Yes!" Lou Po and Lou Gu both clenched their fists.

Lou Yu pretended to sigh: "However, cultivating a strong and mighty navy is extremely costly. The national treasury spends so much money on sailors every year. Instead of wasting money, it is better to ban maritime trade, so that pirates will have no one." Can it be robbed?"

"How can I do that!" Lou Po's eyes widened, "Could it be that someone outside wants to beat me, so I won't go out for the rest of my life?"

Lou Yu asked Lou Gu, "What do you think?"

Lou Gu thought for a while, and said in a milky voice, "I don't think it's okay if you don't go out for the rest of your life, but it can't be because you are afraid to go out."

"Yes, yes, I heard from my sister that people can earn a lot of money by going to sea, and they can also help the treasury to earn money. Let's use the money they pay to raise sailors. The caravan's money raises sailors, and sailors Help them destroy the pirates!"

The more Lou Chi talked, the more she felt that it made sense. She couldn't help but reached out and grabbed Lou Yu's clothes, and said anxiously, "Brother, don't let them make money!"

Lou Yu was amused by her, and felt relieved at the same time.

The two little guys disagreed with the ban on sea trade, which shows that neither of them has the temperament to shrink back when things happen.

The future of Shengguo does not need a cowardly heir.

"But the pirates can't finish fighting, what should I do?"

Lou Chu said: "With uncle here, don't be afraid!"

"When you grow up, uncle will grow old, and he won't be able to touch you anymore. What will happen then?"

"There are others to fight!"

Lou Yu smiled and said, "Remember what you said today, no matter what time it is, Haiphong must not be lost, you know?"

"understood!"

After educating the two children, Lou Yu sent them away, leaned on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.

"Your Majesty, Lord Dingguo seeks an audience."

Lou Yu's spirit was shaken, and he hurriedly said, "Let him in."

As soon as the words fell, the door of the palace was pushed open, and Huo Yan strode over.

He is dressed more festively than usual today, the collar and cuffs are dark red, and the tattoos on it are fine and delicate, making him look handsome and coquettish.

Lou Yu sat on the chair without moving, and looked at him with a smile: "How many more drinks did you stay?"

"A Yu agreed before, to drink other wines with me tonight."

Huo Yan leaned over to kiss him very naturally, and they left immediately.

"Where is the wine?"

Huo Yan's voice was deep and low: "The wine is in the mansion, would A Yu come over and talk about it?"

When buying Huo Qiong's dowry, Huo Yan took the opportunity to hide some wedding supplies and secretly arranged the bedroom to look like a wedding.

Even if Lou Yu didn't ask specifically, he knew what he did.

After handling the government affairs, the two sneaked out of the palace.

Huo Yan has already given a holiday to the Duke's mansion, and there are no other servants in the mansion except the nursing home.

The courtyard was quiet, and the two became more indulgent.

Huo Yan held Lou Yu's hand firmly and walked outside the bedroom.

"A Yu wait outside for a while, okay?"

It was night, and the bedroom was dark.

Lou Yu raised his eyebrows, "Okay."

At this time, it is inevitable that I will be a little nervous.

Lou Yu stood on the porch, watching Huo Yan enter the house and close the door.

Not long after, the house was lit with lights.

Through the glass window, Lou Yu could clearly see the scene inside the house.

Huo Yan took the fire primers and lit the red candles one by one.

Under the radiance of candlelight, the vermilion setting in the bedroom is extremely dazzling, festive and solemn.

Lou Yu's heart ached: You idiot, you forgot to draw the curtains.

He sighed secretly, before Huo Yan could call him, he opened the door and entered.

Huo Yan lit the last red candle, and when he heard the movement behind him, he turned his head suddenly.

But Lou Yu drew the heavy curtains with his hands.

Huo Yan couldn't help but patted his head. He originally wanted to surprise Lou Yu, but he was so excited just now that he forgot to use curtains to block his sight.

"A Yu, I..."

Lou Yu approached slowly, with a gentle look on his face.

"I love so much."

In the house, apart from candles and red silk, there are also red jugs and cups on the table, and even the carpet is dazzlingly red.

These were all arranged by Huo Yan himself, none of them were artificially handed over by others.

The curtains covered everything outside, leaving only the two of them in the whole world.

Here, they are not restricted by their status, and they can drink the wedding wine like ordinary newlyweds and meet for a happy marriage.

The smile on Huo Yan's face deepened, he took his hand, and said softly: "The hi clothes are in the closet, would A Yu change them?"

"Have you even prepared the wedding dress?"

Lou Yu turned around and opened the cabinet door. There were indeed two identical sets of vermilion wedding dresses hanging in the closet, but the size was slightly different.

The Xifu is well-made, using the best fabrics, because it is a men's Xifu, there are not many tattoos on the clothes, but some dark patterns are faintly shining.

Lou Yu admired from the bottom of his heart: "It's so beautiful."

Huo Yan hugged him from behind, kissed his ear, and said hoarsely: "A Yu has fair skin, she must look good in vermilion."

He has rehearsed this scene hundreds of times in his mind.

And now it has finally come true.

Lou Yu felt his excitement and excitement, and his heart beat faster.

He tilted his head slightly, kissed Huo Yan on the face, and asked with a smile, "How do I change it?"

Huo Yan's eyes suddenly darkened: "I'll change it for you."

It took a full two quarters of work to change into a wedding dress.

Lou Yu put on a bright red wedding dress, which made his complexion fairer as expected.

Black hair and crow feathers, dressed in red clothes, full of romantic charm, noble and unparalleled.

Lou Yu's brows were smiling, and the corners of his eyes were slightly flushed, and he didn't know whether it was because of Xi's clothes or when he changed clothes just now.

"It's up to you to change."

Huo Yan turned his head quickly, not daring to look any further, lest he couldn't bear it for a while.

He quickly changed into his happy clothes.

Compared with Lou Yu's romantic and noble, Huo Yan is dressed in red, looking handsome and stable.

Lou Yu was not stingy about his amazement, and asked, "What are you going to do next?"

"drink wine."

As Huo Yan said, he wanted to drag Lou Yu to the table for a drink.

"and many more."

Lou Yu stopped him and found a sachet from the changed clothes.

This sachet was hung on Lou Yu's waist when he left the palace. When Huo Yan just changed his clothes, he thought it was just an ordinary sachet and didn't pay attention.

Lou Yu opened the sachet, took out two white jade rings from the spices, and said with a smile, "Before drinking, please allow me to ask."

"Huo Yan, are you willing to stay with me in the world of mortals and never leave?"

Huo Yan choked up slightly: "I am willing."

Lou Yu smiled, and picked out a white jade ring with a larger circle.

"My name is engraved on the inner circle of this ring. When you wear it, you will be bound to me for the rest of your life."

"I wear it!"

Huo Yan expressed his attitude eagerly, he just wanted to be with Lou Yu for the rest of his life.

Lou Yu traps him with a ring.

"This jade ring has your name engraved on it, but I am not allowed to wear it with you on weekdays, but tonight is fine, you put it on for me."

Huo Yan didn't know the meaning of the wedding ring, but he still trembled excitedly and put the jade ring on Lou Yu's finger.

The red candle sheds tears, and the white jade is flawless.

There are mountains and rivers in this situation.

In the autumn of the eighth year of Zhaoqing, Jiang Bo, the governor of the navy, led his troops to wipe out several pirate strongholds on the islands, and planted the flag of Dasheng on the islands.

These pirates all came from some small countries in the East and South China Seas, and they plundered passing ships all the year round.

At first it was just fishermen's boats, but later they envied Dasheng's merchant ships, so they decided to collect protection money from these merchant ships.

Based on the attitude that more things are worse than less things, the caravan used food and goods as protection fees.

But the greedy pirates don't know enough is enough.

They finally angered Dasheng, angered the lion.

When the huge and majestic warships of the Sheng Kingdom rushed into view, the pirates were heartbroken and ran away.

They were frightened and cowardly, and they all knelt down and begged for mercy.

But Jiang Bo didn't show any politeness to them at all, he directly destroyed their bandit den and rescued the people of Dasheng.

The rescued people were grateful and shed tears on their clothes.

The imperial court sent troops to rescue them!The imperial court did not abandon them!

These cruel and ferocious pirates were frightened by their grand sailors!

They are very proud of being born in such a country.

The news of the victory spread to the imperial court, and everyone in the court praised Lou Yu for his foresight.

The navy's military expenditures over the years have indeed made some people quite critical.

In their view, it is really not worthwhile for the navy to spend so much money while doing nothing all day long!

This time Jiang Bo led the warship proudly and slapped those people in the face.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the navy is the most important thing to keep the commercial routes along the eastern coast open!" Fan Yusheng said loudly.

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

Most officials in the court are aware of the importance of the navy.

Lou Yu said with relief: "This time the navy has severely attacked those pirates. The pirates should not dare to commit another crime in a short time. But we only destroyed their dens. Those pirates are all from small distant countries. When the limelight passes, I'm afraid they will make trouble again. .”

"Aren't they afraid of our strong ships and sharp blades?"

Lou Yu shook his head and said: "These people are all desperadoes, and the navy only captured the pirates in the stronghold, those local bandits can only know that the stronghold has been breached, and maybe they will look for me Dasheng when they are angry revenge."

"Wouldn't it be better to come? Let them come and go!"

Lou Yu laughed and said, "How can there be any reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days? What I want is that those small ocean-going countries fear my great power and prestige, and dare not do it again for at least a hundred years!"

Fan Yusheng was stunned, and immediately realized: "Could it be that Your Majesty wants to surrender those small countries?"

"They hurt my Dasheng people, shouldn't I, Dasheng, ask for an explanation?"

Ocean voyages have always been in Lou Yu's plan, and he just took this opportunity to put this plan on the agenda.

What else could the courtier say?Do it!

During the years since His Majesty ascended the throne, everyone has seen the changes in Shengguo.Facing such a capable Majesty, the ministers often feel ashamed and have no confidence to refute.

This also caused Lou Yu's power to become stronger and stronger, and no one in the court dared to disobey him.

A prosperous emperor in the Spring and Autumn Period, a sage and prosperous hero, is the fortune of the country.

What more could they ask for?

Apart from closely following His Majesty's footsteps, and trying not to drag His Majesty's hind legs, all he wanted was to have the honor of leaving his name in history, and it was better to take him with one stroke than to find no such person.

The emperor said that he wanted to promote the prestige of the country, and all the courts and halls were operating efficiently.

Preparations for ocean voyages take a long time.

In a blink of an eye, it's another year of spring.

This time Chunwei was quite different from previous years. Among the candidates who participated in the examination, there was a female figure!

Lou Yu issued an imperial edict in the seventh year of Zhaoqing, saying that women can enter the court as officials through the imperial examination.

At that time, the wave of civil opposition was not large, but more people were disdainful.

Even if women are given the opportunity to take the imperial examination, so what?

Are they really comparable to men?

So, when the first female lifter appeared in front of everyone, their inexplicable sense of superiority was severely impacted.

The difficulty of the scientific examination is deeply felt by all those who have experienced the examination.

Why did the edict come out only three years after it was promulgated?

After inquiring, I found out that this woman had received the same education as a man since she was a child.

Although women are still rare, they still leave an indelible mark in the hearts of the people.

"Jingcheng Xunbao" even published the first female raiser in history.

In addition, there is another highlight of Chunwei this time, that is, the proportion of Jinshi in Juren High School in the South has greatly increased.

Among them, Rongxian is the leader.

Rong Xian was born in Longzhou in the south, and entered Beijing three years ago to enter a university.He was already well-known in the academy during his university studies.

Others choose at most one major, graduate with as many credits as possible, and continue to study the imperial examination for the rest of the time.

But he was lucky. He asked the teacher if he could choose multiple majors as soon as he entered school.

Jiaoxi had never encountered such a problem before, so he had to ask Tang Xiu for instructions. Tang Xiu couldn't make up his mind, so he asked Lou Yu for instructions.

Lou Yu immediately felt that this person had ideas, so he agreed that he could study multiple majors, but he could only concentrate on one course for a period of time, and he could continue to the next major after earning full credits until the three-year university period expired.

Rongxian naturally thanked the Holy Grace.

At the beginning, others said that he was a sensationalist, but he actually used this method to attract His Majesty's attention.

But seeing Rong Xian earning credits one after another, everyone was dumbfounded.

Is this man crazy?What are you learning so much for?

During these three years, Rongxian studied eagerly, and finally in high school, he was handpicked by Lou Yu as the second place.

Can a remote place like the South be ranked second?

Didn't it mean that they used to be a group of mountain peasants?

Lou Yu specially summoned Rong Xian in the Palace of Qinzheng.

Young wheat complexion, clean appearance.

"After I met you in the library, I asked someone to check your identity, which surprised me."

Rong Xian said respectfully: "At that time, he was young and vigorous, which made His Majesty laugh at him."

"Where are you kidding? I think Luo Yi taught you very well."

Lou Yu recalled the past with a faint smile in his eyes.

"Master has always admired His Majesty, and what His Majesty thinks and does is the standard for him to teach his students." Rong Xian's eyes were full of sincerity, without adulteration.

Lou Yu couldn't help asking: "Is he in good health?"

"The past few years were not very good. The patriarch found all kinds of medicinal materials for him to nourish his body. In the past two years, he has gotten better."

Lou Yu smiled and said, "It seems that your patriarch thinks highly of your wife."

Rong Xian choked for a moment, and thought, is it more than just a matter of importance?

After the old patriarch passed away, young patriarch Rong Shi became the new patriarch, and as long as it was related to the school, everything was left to the master.

It is precisely because of this that the master can concentrate on preaching and teaching, and cultivate a large number of talents, who are famous in the three southern states.

Their school has also changed from ethnology to a college that recruits students from the three states.

These talents not only refer to Juren who can participate in Chunwei, but also include talents in various disciplines who can participate in the construction of the Three States.

Rong Xian admired his master in his heart, and when he started talking, he couldn't finish it.

But he knew how to measure it, and he didn't talk for too long.

Lou Yu's expression was slightly regretful: "Your master is considered to have an extraordinary heart, and I expected this achievement. If it wasn't for the trick of fate, he should be working for the court now."

"Your Majesty, the Master said that he is doing his best for the court by training more students for the court." Rong Xian spared no effort to say good things.

Lou Yu gave him a funny look, "Then you can bring me a letter to let him continue to serve the court."

"Wei Chen obeys!"

"I heard that the winter in the south is not very cold, is it?"

The emperor suddenly talked about the climate, Rong Xian was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously replied: "It is indeed much warmer than the north."

"If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely go to the south to have a look."

Lou Yu thought in his heart that after retirement, he would go to the south with Huo Yan for vacation, completely avoid these government affairs, and enjoy a peaceful and worry-free life.

Lou Yu told Rong Xian: "So you tell Luo Yi to take care, maybe I can chat with him when I go to the south."

"My master will be very happy to hear that His Majesty cares so much."

After Rong Xian returned, he sent a letter to Luo Yi.

With an efficient logistics system, the letter was quickly delivered to Luo Yi.

Seeing Rong Xian ranked second in high school, the corners of Luo Yi's lips rose slightly.

When he saw the second half, his eyes suddenly widened, his fingers trembled slightly, and a layer of mist filled his eyes.

It turned out that His Majesty still remembered him as a sinner.

Over the years, the more he saw Dasheng's prosperity, the more he blamed himself for his stubbornness back then.

At the same time, I admire Your Majesty even more.

Rong Shi's eyes were sharp, seeing his eyelashes filled with tears, he couldn't help frowning: "What did that kid Rong Xian say?"

Luo Yi didn't answer, he watched by himself.

After watching it, he couldn't help being surprised: "Isn't this a good thing! This kid is really promising! Your Majesty will forgive you after seeing the situation, that's great!"

Luo Yi chuckled and nodded, feeling relieved.

Yeah, that's great.
