Chapter 21 The listener is sad and the listener is in tears

Gu Yuzhi had a headache and had no idea why the two of them were quarreling again.

He pouted, it was all his auxiliary system, is there anything you can't say properly?Why do we have to quarrel?
The next second, Wen Xiuzhu closed the folding fan with a swipe and said angrily: "Nonsense! You and I are both in the same system. Why don't I want His Highness to become a better person?"

"Then what do you want me to do?" Shu Xiaohan was about to continue talking about Pinyin when she saw that the young prince had almost reached the meeting hall. He just suppressed this idea and warned: "When your highness goes in, just remember what I told you about Pinyin." With those characteristics of Liang, I must overcome all opinions and firmly set the address of the fiefdom in Xinliang. As long as His Highness’s fiefdom is in Xinliang, I am confident that Xinliang will become the city with the most land in Mobei!"

Gu Yuzhi nodded his head, glad that the quarrel was finally over, and said obediently: "I know Teacher Shu."

However, he found it a bit difficult to convince Xie Changshi and others with the characteristics mentioned by Teacher Shu. After all, he had never heard of soil pH.

He also suspected that it might be because he was young and ignorant, but after what happened with Xiaomai last time, Gu Yuzhi no longer dared to say what Teacher Shu said casually.

In the meeting hall, Chen Dianyi and others surrounded Xie Changshi, chattering and asking him what the emperor's plan was.

Yesterday, they all knew that His Highness ran back to the main courtyard heartbroken. Then they learned from Chen Dianyi that the Emperor had only written a few lines of letters back to His Highness, and everyone was immediately shocked.

What a difficult situation the young prince is in now. The emperor is still so indifferent. It is really sad to hear and shed tears...

Xie Changshi only felt that he was surrounded by three hundred ducks, and each duck was quacking, but he could not get angry, so he could only smile and said: "Don't worry, we are all..."

"Your Highness."

Before Xie Changshi could finish his words of comfort, he heard that His Highness had arrived. With a wink, all the officials quickly dispersed and lined up. After His Highness sat down, they said respectfully: "Your Highness."

Gu Yuzhi was obviously in a good mood and raised his hand slightly to signal: "Everyone, please take a seat."

He tilted his head and looked at Xie Changshi: "What do Xie Changshi think of this trip to Xinliang?"

He had already thought about it when he walked in. If Xie Changshi disagreed, he would say that he thought Xinliang was a big place. Just like what Shopkeeper Wen said, he could win with quantity.

He blinked his eyes, secretly praising his intelligence in his heart, but he didn't want Xie Changshi to stand up and respectfully said: "I believe that Xinliang can be the first choice for His Highness to build a palace."

Gu Yuzhi?

what happened?Xie Changshi actually agreed?
Gu Yuzhi suspected that he heard wrongly.

Seeing that Gu Yuzhi didn't say anything, Xie Changshi said again: "Your Highness, I believe that Xinliang is the first choice for your Highness to build a palace."

Gu Yuzhi was very happy, but he couldn't show it. He looked like he wanted to know: "But I remember that when we were in Xinliang, Xie Changshi was always frowning. I thought Xie Changshi thought Xinliang was not good."

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but covered his mouth and smiled secretly. Now, he didn't have to think hard about what he would do if Xie Changshi and others didn't agree with the concept of winning by quantity. "Actually, I already had this idea when I was looking at the map." He looked at Gu Yuzhi with a slight smile on his face, "It was the inspiration given by His Highness."

Gu Yuzhi was even more confused now and pointed back at himself: "Me?"

"Yes. When His Highness looked at the map, he said that the official road from Xinliang is closer to Quanzhou." When Xie Changshi said this, the smile on his face disappeared, "Your Highness does not know, Quanzhou is our Sang country's defense The Beidi people were the first line of defense. After Taizu ascended the throne, they severely damaged Beidi, so the entire state's borders have been safe and sound for so many years. However, after so many years of recuperation, if the Beidi people invade again, the state's food and grass supply will be insufficient."

Gu Yuzhi tried hard to digest what Xie Changshi said, and combined with what Teacher Shu said before that if you want to get rich, you must build a road first, he realized how important this official road was to Quanzhou and Changzhou, starting from Xinliang.

Seeing Gu Yuzhi's serious face, Xie Changshi continued: "What I said is the current situation in Mobei. Back to His Highness, Your Highness is now the prince of Mobei. You should know that to the people of the fiefdom, the prince is not only It is as simple as being a royal prince, and it is also the support of the people. It is understandable if His Highness hangs his fiefdom south of Changzhou, but how should His Highness deal with the danger in Mobei?"

He has an obligation to let His Highness know that although His Highness is young, as a royal relative and enjoying royal treatment, he must also contribute to the people.

After all, this was the real reason why he followed His Highness to Mobei.

Gu Yuzhi had never thought about this. He always thought that he just had to stay in the fief until he came of age and take over his mother and concubine. Who would have thought that he would have to consider these things?

Gu Yuzhi's little face wrinkled into a bun again...

He could sense that there was something in Xie Changshi's words, but he was young and could not think of anything further, so he could only nod his little head.

But seeing Xie Changshi frowning and trying to persuade him, Gu Yuzhi still found it a bit amusing.Xie Changshi, you really don’t need to tell me such complicated words, just tell me that you think Xinliang is suitable, and I will agree!

Gu Yuzhi showed a big smile: "Xie Changshi said before that I don't have to pay taxes on the land in my fiefdom, so I thought Xin Liang was very suitable. After all, he is the biggest."

He scratched his head: "Everyone knows that I am poor anyway. Only with more land can I be rich. Now that Xie Changshi has said how important Xinliang is, I think it is more appropriate."

No one else in the meeting hall spoke, but everyone nodded wildly. Yes, yes, your highness is indeed very poor. You are so poor that you will soon be unable to support all the people in the mansion.

They reasonably suspected that if it weren't for the fact that they were all appointed by the Emperor, His Highness's first thought would be to drive them all away...

But Your Highness, have you misunderstood the point? It doesn’t matter whether there is a lot of land or not. Your point is that you have no money to build a mansion or to cultivate wasteland...

This is simply a vicious cycle...

Xie Changshi laughed twice. Very good, they and His Highness had the same idea. Fortunately, he was still thinking about how to make it easy to understand so that His Highness would agree: "In that case, I will arrange for someone to do it." Go down and find a way to clean it up bit by bit from the entrance to Xinliang. After the snow melts next year, His Highness can determine the specific location of the mansion."

Gu Yuzhi nodded subconsciously, and then shook his head: "No, Xie Changshi, there is too little treasury money available now, so we should wait a little longer to clean up this matter."

Why hasn’t the imperial brother’s reward come yet? If it doesn’t come, he will really drink the northwest wind!
