Carefree Scholar Chapter 1176: Still the King of Kings
Ten years ago, or even five years ago, every official in the hall would not have thought that one day they would be able to see such a meeting.
Politics, economy, population, farming, commerce... almost every aspect they can think of is flourishing at a gratifying speed.
Before, they could not see Jingguo's future because of confusion.
Now they still can't see Jingguo's future, because Jingguo's rapid development has far exceeded their imagination.
Of course, Dachao will bring not only happiness but also worry to all officials.
Especially after Shuzhou governor Chen Chong played, almost half of the people above the court changed their faces.
Suspicious, shocked, unbelievable, and deeply regretful.
This is the first time Chen Chong, the governor of Shuzhou, has participated in the Great Court.
Chen Chong is no stranger to the name Chen Chong, whether it is a veteran who has been standing in the court for more than ten years or a new official in the court in recent years.
The former residence of the Kingdom of Chen is so prominent, not to mention covering the sky with one hand, but throwing a brick on the street can hit a marquis's Kyoto. The Chen family is already one of the few families at the top.
The Chen family was once glorious, and then because of the involvement of the Cui family's rebellion, it fell overnight, and later, it completely disappeared in Kyoto.
Some people know that he served as the governor of Shu Zhou in the fief of King Jing, while some people completely forgot him.
Today, this once man in Kyoto once again walked in front of everyone's sight.
He brought a few news.
In the past five years, the population of Shuzhou has officially surpassed Kyoto and became the most populous city in Jingguo.
The tax revenue of Shuzhou last year was 20% of that of Jingguo.
It didn't exceed it, leaving them some face.
But it is only a Shu Prefecture, and Shu Prefecture’s tax revenue is 20% of Jingguo’s tax, which means that Shu Prefecture is worth more than ten Jingguo states.
But it has nothing to do with them.
Because as early as five years ago, the courtiers discussed unanimously and almost couldn’t wait to give the 50-year taxation rights of Shuzhou to King Jing. They even gave the entire Shuzhou to King King. At that time they thought Do you want to send two more...
At that time, they thought, as long as he can leave Kyoto, it will be fine.
Five years ago, one state in Jingguo was worth more than ten Shuzhou. Five years later, one Shuzhou was worth more than ten normal Jingguo prefectures, more than a hundredfold.
This has only been five years. No one knows what about Shuzhou in fifty years.
The courtiers in the palace have regretted their intestines.
They couldn't help turning their heads to look at the figure standing in the front, not knowing whether it was fear or respect...
Li Yi has been watching the progress of the Dachaohui.
After the officials of Jingguo's state capitals reported on their duties, the envoys of various countries followed.
A few years ago, when Jing Guo was weak, the envoys of Qi and Zhao were on the Golden Palace of Jing Guo, as if they were in their own garden, and their words and deeds were quite improper.
Now, the situation is completely different.
Many envoys of small countries faintly expressed the meaning of surrender after offering heavy gifts.
The envoy of Wu State did not give a gift, and Her Majesty only sent a letter of credence.
The country of Wu and the country of Jing formally established diplomatic relations in the first month of the fifth year in Jinghe, and thereafter they will be friendly neighbors. They will not infringe on each other, remove trade barriers, and communicate with each other...
The gifts sent by the envoys of the State of Zhao are very heavy, because they are here for help. The army of Qi is about to approach the imperial city of the State of Zhao. If Jinguo does not help, it will not be long before the State of Zhao Will disappear in the long river of history...
What the envoys of Qi State showed, although they were not as warm as Wu State, they also expressed the meaning of establishing diplomatic relations. When they spoke, the envoys of Zhao State had a dead face from beginning to end...
The dynasty will start in the morning and will go through several hours, and it will not end until the afternoon.
Several veterans and some veterans in the court were given to sit by Li Xuan long before the meeting began. Those young officials stood all the way, and when they came out after the meeting, they were almost limped. Turned.
For a few hours, Li Yi didn't feel anything. After the dynasty was over, he left first.
I didn't go far, and there was a rushing voice behind him.
"His Royal Highness King Jing, His Highness King King!"
The voice is very familiar. Li Yi turned around and saw Wei Liang trotting here.
Wei Liang came with the envoy of the Wu Kingdom this time. Li Yi saw him just now, but it was difficult to speak under the circumstances.
Li Yi and Wei Liang have not seen each other for a long time, they smiled, looked at him and asked: "How is your queen?"
Wei Liang showed a smile on his face and said: "Your Majesty has just taken the throne, everything is fine, but the daily affairs of the country are a bit busy..."
If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. This is the case with the Pearl, and so does Yang Liuqing.
Wu Guo has just settled down and she is waiting to be happy. Naturally, she has to be particularly busy, and there are many things she has not encountered before to learn.
However, with the old man beside him watching them, they wouldn't make a big mistake.
"Brother Li~IndoMTL.com~Long time no see."
Another voice came from beside him, Li Yi turned his head and saw Yang Yanzhou who had just walked out of the hall.
He was on behalf of Zhao Yi this time, and his purpose was naturally to block Jingguo’s assistance to Zhao Guo.
However, Jing Guochao has already concluded this.
Although Jing Guohe and Zhao Guo had old grudges, Qi Guo was very ambitious, and he absolutely couldn't watch Qi Guo sit up. Half a month ago, he sent troops to block Qi Guo and help Zhao Guo, the order has been rushed out. By now, the Jingguo army on the border between Qi and Zhao must have taken action.
Li Yi shook his head and said, "What are you doing here if you don't stay with Zhao Yi? Zhao Yi doesn't know that no one is assigned to this matter."
Yang Yanzhou smiled and said: "Is it useful? You have to try it before you know."
"I tried it now, did it work?"
Yang Yanzhou smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Li Yi was too lazy to talk to him about these things, waved his hand casually, and said: "Before coming out, there is still soup in the pot. If you don't talk about national affairs, you can come to the King's Palace to sit and sit if you have time..."
"Definitely!" Wei Liang waved his hand.
Yang Yanzhou smiled and said: "In this case, Yanzhou will visit Brother Li tomorrow."
……
The hundred officials who came out of the hall looked at His Royal Highness King Jing and the envoys of Qi and Wu, who were chatting and laughing. It was obviously not the first time they met. They were all surprised.
They didn't think that King Jing was collaborating with the enemy and treason, but even the envoys of Qi and Wu seemed to have good friends with him.
Whether in Kyoto or not, King King is still the King King...
An official watched King Jing's back disappear, took a few steps forward, and said to Shen Xiang who was walking slowly: "Shen Xiang, Shuzhou, Shuzhou can't just leave it to King Jing!" 8 ) For more wonderful novels, welcome to everyone's reading academy
