v2.Chapter 363 (2/2)
The ministers of the DPRK and the central government were very shocked when they heard the news, but what they were more worried about was not the burning of the tobacco City, but the letters sent by the generals.
The contents of Kun Yu Yang's letter are fairly stable. Some of the generals in other cities say that they can't afford to be transferred back to Beijing. Some also say that there are more and more deserters in the army. Some even say that they can't support it any more and ask the central government to reinforce them
The morale is so low that it is unheard of in Beili.
Gu Shubai didn't finish reading the letter, so he called the Minister of the Ministry of industry and several servants into the palace, and strictly ordered them to improve the speed of shipbuilding.
The Minister of the Ministry of industry wanted to cry without tears. ”Regent, it's not that the lower officials don't do their best. Now the Ministry of industry has put all its energy on shipbuilding. Look at the eyes of the lower officials.”
His eyes were black and blue. Because he was old, his eyes were red.
The same is true of several ministers of the Ministry of work.
”Regent, we haven't slept with those craftsmen for several nights. They build ships day and night, and we supervise and pacify them day and night. We have done our best!”
Of course, they also know that if the ship can't be built one day, the war can't stop one day.
It's not easy to build such a big ship in one move, not to mention a whole fleet. No matter how they forget to eat and sleep, it will take time.
Time.
This is the most precious thing at present. If it is delayed for one more day, one more coastal town may be destroyed.
”I know Lord Shangshu has tried his best, but his best is not enough. He must try his best.”
Gu Shubai stood up and looked at him, his eyes slightly cold, ”not only fast, but also quality and quantity. All the people in the court are doing their best. The Ministry of work and the Treasury's money are the same. If the Ministry of work can't make any achievements with all the efforts of the country, I don't need to say that the Lord Shangshu knows what he is responsible for? ”The Minister of the Ministry of work trembled, and Gu Shubai left.
He complained incessantly. Seeing that several waiters behind him were still in a daze, he quickly said, ”what are you doing standing there? You all go to the shipbuilding workshop in Jiangkou immediately and supervise it yourself. I'll go tonight. I'll go at once. No delay
”Mr. Shang Shu, we are officials in the imperial court. What's the benefit of going to the shipbuilding workshop to be with those craftsmen? We can't build a boat, either
”Yes, isn't Liu Shilang, who is in charge of shipbuilding, already gone? It's useless for us to go! We haven't had a good sleep for three days just because we supervised the manufacture of spare parts in Jingzhong. If we went directly to the shipbuilding Workshop... ”
”What are you talking about?”
The always good tempered Minister of the Ministry of work almost jumped up and said, ”didn't you hear what the Regent said just now? If we don't build the boat quickly, even our officer will have to go in person. Why can't you go? ”
The waiters had no choice but to go home and pack.
……
At this moment, going back to Changsheng hall is more painful than in the previous dynasty.
Gu Shubai stood on the corridor, looking at a corner of the palace wall of Changsheng hall, and could not persuade himself to go in.
Since the last time when Yu Fu's image was unstable and almost had an accident, he strictly ordered the palace not to tell Yu Fu about the government affairs. Yu Fu also promised him not to take care of it any more, but these days he always looks sad.
He knew that she didn't really agree.
After all, she is the empress of Beili. Even for her own body and for her children, she can't restrain a king's instinct and care about the family, the country and the world.
Every time he comes back from the former dynasty, Yu Fu always pretends to know nothing and doesn't ask. He also deliberately doesn't talk about the affairs of the court and tries to talk about some relaxed things with her.
The estrangement between husband and wife is deeper and deeper.
He was afraid that when he went back, he could not help but bring back the emotion of the court and let her see how difficult the situation was. He was also afraid to see Yu Fu's restrained and cold face, which made him more sad than the difficult things in the court.
He lingered under the corridor for a long time, and finally walked towards Changsheng hall.
Today, the atmosphere in the palace is very different.
The palace maids and eunuchs all stood outside the hall carefully, as if they were worried about who would be offended. They held their breath one by one.
Yu Fu is always easygoing and never strict with the palace people. What's wrong with these people?
He stood outside the hall and hesitated for a moment, slightly pulling the corners of his mouth to restore his usual smile, pretending that nothing had happened.
He didn't walk into the hall until he felt that he had practiced well.
Yu Fu sat on the couch, with his back to him. His eyes fell out of the window, not knowing what he was looking at.
He walked slowly over and sat down opposite her.
Yu Fu's face still didn't turn around. Outside the window, the autumn wind rolled the fallen leaves and the chill was bleak. Gu Shubai slowly raised his head and tried to close the window.
”Don't turn it off.”
Yu Fu said faintly, ”I want to blow the wind.”
She needs to calm down, otherwise she doesn't know whether the decision she is going to make is a whim or a correct judgment.
Cold wind is the most calming tool. Although it can't compare with Gu Jiuge's cold feeling of rushing to Changzhou with her in the wind and snow that year, she still feels that she has never been so sober.
For a while, she turned her head.
Gu Shubai said with a forced smile: ”you know everything about the court?”
”Well.”
She just nodded, did not say how he knew, Gu Shubai did not ask.
After all, Yufu is the king of Beili. If she wants to know something, no one can hide it from her.
What's more, the sangyi fleet is making a comeback this time. The war situation is so critical, and the morale of the local troops is lax. Even the general has the intention to retreat. How can such a big thing be concealed from her?
After all, she knows.
Gu Shubai looks at her abdomen. The fetus in her abdomen has been more than four months, and her body has ups and downs, which symbolizes the existence of a life.
But Yu Fu said, ”I want to lead the army to go out in person to save the morale of the army.”
Gu Shubai's hand stopped at the same place and his fingertips trembled.
Nothing can save the morale of the army more than the imperial expedition.
He knows this very well. He also knows that Yu Fu's decision is the best solution now. He knows more about what this method means.
He looked into Yufu's eyes, ”what about our children?”
She can't keep safe in the palace. If the emperor drives to fight in person, can the child be kept?
Can she really give up her own flesh and blood easily?
Yu Fu's hands caressed her upper abdomen and stayed for a long time. Her voice choked slightly, ”we are still young, children There will be more. ”
At the beginning of knowing that Yufu was pregnant, he worried that she would not leave the child.
Unexpectedly, after two or three months of worrying about the child, Yufu decided to abandon him.
Is he a man or a woman, quiet or active?
Before he could see the world, he was decided to give up.Gu Shubai's trembling fingertips slowly curled up on the table with tea cups, and finally gathered a clenched fist.
