Chapter 1005 (1/2)
”Ha ha ha...”
Liu Zhao burst out laughing.
He ran to Chang'an palace, looking for Gu Jiu to show off, his face elated.
”You don't see the faces of those courtiers. It's him. It's him who makes mistakes. How to say a mouth depends on your own will. You hit your own face more heavily than me. As expected, they are a group of shameless people. I have opened my eyes. ”
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and laughed, ”this is what you are wrong with. What they say and do is exactly what you expect. In turn, you attack them for having no position but only interests. You ask too much of them, try to ask them by the standards of saints, and no one can.
People read for the imperial examination, this is for their own future, for the interests of the family. He is a good official who can think of asking for the people's orders when he has spare power. If you don't reach out to the people, it's better. However, all the Xixi in the world are for profit. Everyone is a layman and has a heart for fame and wealth. So don't ask your officials to be saints, so as not to be disappointed. ”
”I'm really disappointed. The courtiers' faces are too ugly. You didn't see that scene. When I said that if Marquis Lu was the king of Xiliang and led the northwest army to stay in Xiliang, the court would no longer provide any materials. Even if it's a grain of rice and a needle, the greedy eyes of those courtiers opened my eyes. ”
Gu Jiu pursed his lips and laughed, ”you should be happy. It was because of greed that Zhou had its territory today. The courtiers were greedy. Without the help of the imperial court, thousands of people would rush into Xiliang and plunder the wealth of the western regions. At that time, it will not be you and me, but Lu Hou. He has to keep going west, all the way to the West. ”
Liu Zhao was curious, ”you never seem to worry about the collusion between the courtiers and the Marquis Lu, and vice versa.”
Gu Jiu said: ”if you have the ability to pit the imperial court, I am not afraid. What's more, I opened all the materials to Lu Hou, including the latest weapons. There is no reason for him to leave this palace and cooperate with a group of courtiers with limited resources. ”
”You are right. With you as the supplier, Lu Hou really does not need to cooperate with other courtiers. It's just that everyone rushed to the western regions to do business. Is there such a big market there? In the end, if you don't make any money, you'll accumulate a lot of resentment, which is not conducive to the follow-up plan. ”
It is normal for Liu Zhao not to understand commercial affairs and worry about it.
Gu Jiu's expression was determined, ”don't worry, you all have money to earn. It seems like a swarm of bees, but in fact, there is a real strength to organize caravans, and there are still a few who go to Xiliang to do business. Two hundred people form a caravan, and the value of the goods is at least 300000 taels. How many families in Beijing can organize 300000 taels of goods to Xiliang at one go? Little, little!
Only a few families can cooperate to form a caravan and make money together. However, the world is selfish, and few people are as generous as this palace. Such hasty cooperation is bound to result in internal strife and even antagonism. In two or three years' time, the caravan that can still go on the Xiliang commercial road will not be saved. Let them rush in a swarm first, hit their heads, break their heads, and look back, then we can see that the prairie I have prepared for them, overseas, is the road that really suits them. ”
Hearing this, Liu Zhao laughed.
”My good lady, I'm so glad to see you play with the courtiers.” Liu Zhao was very proud.
Gu nine spat, ”words can't say. I don't play games with people. I just lead people to make money together
”Yes, yes, everyone will make a fortune together. Is it necessary to continue to hype this wave of topics. There are a lot of old people in the court who are stubborn. They are buzzing in my ears all day long. I'm tired of it. ”
”Someone's buzzing in your ear. It's bad, but it's good for you. As an emperor, you should not only sing praises but also criticize. To tell you the truth, I treasure those stubborn people more than those wall curds
Liu Zhao laughed, ”you are afraid that I have been an emperor for a long time, lose my normal heart, and become arrogant and arrogant without knowing it.”
”Everyone has lost their own time. My strength is too weak. I need the courtiers to beat you all the time. ”
” it's tiring to be an emperor! ” Liu Zhao's face was depressed, ”those old men's words don't listen to a word. I wish I could drive them all away. But intellectually, we have to persuade ourselves to tolerate their existence. In this way, people's demands on the emperor are really based on the saints. ”
Gu Jiu comforted him, ”when the emperor is pioneering and enterprising and wants to open up new territory, the demands of courtiers on the emperor will also increase, and the voice of opposition will increase accordingly. If the emperor is only a successful monarch, as long as the weather is favorable and there is no disaster, courtiers are willing to tolerate the emperor and lower their requirements.
Obviously, you are the emperor who wants to expand the territory. If you want to revive the Zhou Dynasty, you have to bear more pressure and higher requirements. If you feel too tired to bear, you can give up and turn back to be a successful king. In the present situation, as long as you don't lose your family and you have more than enough success, you may be able to mix the reputation of a wise emperor and be praised by later generations. ”
Liu Zhao was stunned and then burst into laughter.
He put his arms around Gu Jiu and said, ”if I want to be a successful king, why do I have to struggle with the courtiers all day. As you said, if you maintain the present situation, you can be a wise king. If you don't make trouble, you will have a relaxed life. How nice! But I am a man who wants to die if I don't make trouble. In a good time, the imperial power is in power. If I don't make trouble, I will live up to my good time. ”Gu Jiu laughed and pinched his cheek. ”I know you are a busy person. I dislike those courtiers in my mouth. One day, no one will scold you for being stupid in the morning court. You should feel uncomfortable again. ”
”Ha ha ha The queen knows me. That group of courtiers is really annoying, but because of them, the court hall has become particularly lively. Everyone seems to have endless energy, and every big court meeting is full of energy. One mouthful of a faint monarch, citing scriptures, almost did not scold me as an animal. Looking at their energetic appearance, I felt that chaotang was full of vitality and my whole body was full of blood. I had to work hard to kill them. ”
Liu Zhao is like a second boy in middle school, full of strength.
Gu Jiu said with a smile: ”it's not easy to make the courtiers angry. I'm afraid you're angry. They're still alive. ”
”I don't like to hear that. It sounds like I'm mean.”
