Steel Dynasty - Chapter 707
[Chapter 706 Goryeo Trends]
“The emperor is very kind to my old minister, and I will repay the emperor even if I risk my life.”
Fiji’s eyes were red, and the cry of the baby in the bedroom made his hanging heart finally fall to the ground.
He has always been worried about this daughter the most. When Fei Yue’er was not pregnant for two years after entering the palace, he was so worried that he couldn’t sleep day and night.
After Fei Yue’er became pregnant, he began to worry about whether it was a boy or a girl. Now that Fei Yue’er was the queen, in his opinion, there was a big difference.
After all, if Fei Yue’er gives birth to a boy, Fei Yue’er’s status will be unshakable from now on. If it is a girl, it will be extremely disadvantageous for her if other concubines give birth to boys first.
For this reason, he, who was never willing to form cliques, made an exception and got closer to some ministers. What he was afraid of was that Fei Yue’er would be bullied in the future and he would have the support of his father.
But now his worries have disappeared. As the queen, Fei Yueer gave birth to a prince. According to the patriarchal system that has been followed for thousands of years, the eldest son is the heir.
Now his daughter is not only more valuable than her mother, but also more valuable than her mother.
“I believe your words for the time being. I didn’t tell you clearly before so that you, the head of the country, can save some face in front of the officials.”
As soon as Fiji entered Qingzhou, his style was somewhat different from that of Chang’an. Xiao Ming naturally saw this. In my eyes, in my heart.
After careful analysis, he roughly guessed what Feiji was thinking. He only had one daughter, and he doted on Feiyueer. He was not just trying to keep Feiyueer.
Fiji showed embarrassment and said, “It turns out that the emperor has known everything a long time ago. I am ashamed of myself.”
Xiao Ming put on a kind expression at this time and said, “Do you really think that I am blind?” Nothing in Qingzhou can escape my eyes, but sometimes I just turn a blind eye, but the reform is coming, but I can’t ignore it. Pang Yukun has been reprimanded by me, so you don’t want to do it yourself. The
queen was sad. “
After he finished speaking, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Fiji’s palms, because in his opinion, his previous behavior was beyond the limit of Xiao Ming’s endurance.
He immediately said: “I must change my past behavior.”
” In this case, I will wait and see.” Xiao Ming’s tone softened, “I can try walking around when I have nothing to do. After all, we are also a family.”
After a meal of sticks and carrots, Fiji was beaten by Xiao Ming. Feeling a little dizzy, he nodded repeatedly and said, “Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness.”
The two chatted briefly. At this time, the wet nurse came out with the baby in her arms. When the Queen Mother saw Fiji, she said, “My dear, the Queen is very up to date.” , This time, a dragon son was added to the country of Chongqing. “
The Empress Dowager’s words from her relatives made Fiji even more moved. He said: “Thanks to the grace of the Emperor’s Empress Dowager, God must have been moved to give the dragon son.”
The Empress Dowager .
With a smile, he said: “So your grandfather should help the emperor more and give him a prosperous empire in the future.”
Xiao Ming did not speak. Sometimes the empress dowager and him seemed to have a clear understanding of each other. The empress dowager’s words just now seemed ordinary. Strange, but a very high level sentence.
This sentence of “in-laws” is a folk saying, which obviously makes Fiji and the royal family share weal and woe, and the following words are to encourage him to assist him well.
Fiji nodded repeatedly. Xiao Ming said it was one thing, but the Queen Mother said it was another thing.
In the eyes of the old ministers of Chang’an, Concubine Zhen had a very high status. After all, Concubine Zhen had some shadow of the late emperor in her body.
After saying these words, the Empress Dowager signaled the wet nurse to give the little prince to Fiji for a hug. Fiji was flattered and immediately held the little prince carefully, her body stiffened for fear of hurting the baby.
The Empress Dowager said at this time: “Your Majesty, the little prince doesn’t have a name yet. While Fei Ge is here, how about giving the little prince a name?”
“That’s what I have in mind.” Xiao Ming said with a smile; “Why don’t you give the little prince a name?”
Call him Xiao Yi.”
Fiji heard this and said, “The word “Yi” refers to being extraordinary and outstanding. The little prince is named Xiao Yi. It seems that the emperor has high hopes for the little prince. This word is wonderful.”
Xiao Ming nodded lightly .
He nodded, and he would definitely teach his first son personally, at least to make his thoughts consistent with his own.
He doesn’t want me to conquer the country and his son to destroy it.
After deciding on the name of the prince, the three of them talked for a while, and then Fiji left. From the way he walked vigorously, it was enough to see how happy Fiji was this time.
When he arrived outside the building, Fiji finally couldn’t help laughing. This time he felt proud of himself, but he calmed down again when he thought of what Xiao Ming said.
He couldn’t continue to be so contentious in this officialdom. He had to express his attitude to Xiao Ming, and the best time to express his attitude now was this reform.
In any case, he cannot be vague about this matter, otherwise he will become a burden to Fei Yue’er and his grandson.
Thinking about this all the way, he returned to Fei Mansion, and then he sent his steward to invite some important officials. He would make his attitude clear at the banquet.
Naturally, what Fiji did did not escape the eyes of the secret guards. Li San went to the camp at night and told Xiao Ming about the matter. Xiao Ming was naturally very satisfied with this. The factors that might hinder the reform in the court were basically Nothing left.
Also coming with Li San was Wang Xuan. They met on the way and came together.
After Li San reported the situation in Fiji, Wang Xuan said: “Your Majesty, the subordinates received the news. Beishan gave an order to the King of Korea to send the navy to pretend to be Japanese pirates to harass Dengzhou.” “
Dengzhou.” Xiao Ming Immediately looking at the map, he said: “I was just trying to deal with Goryeo, but he came to the door himself.”
Wang Xuan asked doubtfully: “Is the emperor really planning to occupy Goryeo?”
“Occupy? I’m not that stupid. My purpose this time is just to force Goryeo to open its treaty ports. Now that the Japanese have settled in Goryeo, I don’t want to be a shield for the barbarians. It seems that the barbarians are really anxious this time and let the King of Goryeo The navy was sent to pretend to be Japanese pirates, in order to bring trouble to Dengzhou. “
Yes, because as far as the official knows, the Japanese pirates are very ambitious. This barbarian withdrawal has encouraged the Japanese country, and many Japanese famous names have been encouraged.” The warriors clamored to occupy the entire Goryeo.”
Xiao Ming frowned and said, “A strong Goryeo is very detrimental to the Great Chongqing, but a Goryeo fully occupied by the Japanese is even more unfavorable to the Great Chongqing. It can only be half-dead. Goryeo is in the interest of the Great Yu Kingdom. “
After a pause, he said: “On land, we cannot fight a protracted war with Japan. I can’t afford it, and the national treasury cannot support it, but at sea, we can restrain Japan. Cutting off Japan’s sea transportation line will destroy Japan’s soldiers in Goryeo, so now we have the advantage no matter what. “
