back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 451
Gao Hao got the order, and bowed out of the Chui Gong Hall, Xu Jingchun, who was waiting outside the hall, said to him in a low voice: "Eunuch Gao, how is Your Majesty feeling?"

Xu Jingchun didn't know there was such a trick at first, but he learned it after seeing many ministers asking this question.Gao Hao is a good person, no matter who he is, he is willing to explain.While Shangcai was in the Daqing Palace, the little emperor was furious, Xu Jingchun was summoned by decree at this time, and he was very disturbed, so naturally he had to ask clearly, so that he had a bottom line.

Gao Hao said with a smile: "Director Xu is overthinking, His Majesty is in a pretty good mood now..."

It was inconvenient for Gao Hao to say anything more.And there is already a lot of information revealed in these words, Xu Jingchun is not a fool, he finally settled down, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, Eunuch Gao!"

Gao Hao is a smart person, so Xu Jingchun naturally wouldn't say anything false that he will be rewarded in the future.A word of thanks made it clear what I meant, and after I cupped my hands, I strode into the Chuigong Palace.Gao Hao smiled and watched Xu Jingchun enter the hall.

"Minister Xu Jingchun, see Your Majesty!" Seeing Lu Chengqi reviewing the memorial, Xu Jingchun hastily saluted.

Without raising his head, Lu Chengqi said flatly: "Xu Qing, I haven't summoned you for a long time, so you won't come to tell me about the recent situation of the Supervision Department? Or, the Supervision Department has become your world? "

Xu Jingchun was so frightened that he quickly fell to the ground with a "boom", and said repeatedly: "I dare not, I dare not!"

Lu Chengqi put down the memorial, and said with a smile: "Why are you nervous, I'm just joking. Get up first, what are you doing lying on the ground?"

Xu Jingchun felt contempt in his heart: "You are joking. If I joke, I will have to move my head." While thinking this way, he crawled up.

Lu Chengqi left the dragon chair, walked slowly in front of Xu Jingchun, sized him up carefully, and suddenly said, "Xu Qing, why do I feel that you have changed a lot?"

Xu Jingchun didn't understand what Lu Chengqi wanted to say, so he didn't dare to answer for a moment.This is what Lu Chengqi felt. The tough frontier soldier had transformed into a cold-blooded and cruel intelligence leader. In the final analysis, he himself did the evil.

"Forget it, I just want to know what the Supervision Department is doing now? Except for the secret report you submitted, I have never seen a single spy..." Lu Chengqi said slowly, his eyes fixed on Looking at Xu Jingchun's face, observe whether he has an expression of dodging.

Xu Jingchun immediately replied: "Return to Your Majesty, all the spies have been dispatched according to His Majesty's will to eliminate spies from the Liao Kingdom, Korea, Wa Kingdom, Annan, and Uighur. Recently, the Supervision Department has found a clue about the Liao Kingdom spies, and the number of people involved is too large." Too many spies from the Supervision Department have been dispatched, so they can barely keep up."

"Oh, there is such a thing? How did the investigation go? You won't tell me that so many people have spread it, but you haven't checked it out?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the ministers are incompetent, it is true...it is true that they have not been able to root them out. Every time they touch their leaders, those outside spies die, and the clues are cut off..." Xu Jingchun glanced at Lu Chengqi, Suddenly, he realized that the little emperor who reached his shoulders a year ago had quietly increased in height, almost equal to him.Although he still looks thin, he is much better than the scrawny one more than a year ago.

Lu Chengqi also knew what these courtiers were thinking. Unless he asked about embarrassing things, he would definitely cover them up if he could, and he wouldn't say anything if he couldn't. "In this way, the Supervisory Department that I formed with my own hands is no match for the spies from the Liao Kingdom?"

Xu Jingchun said hastily: "The minister has neglected his duty, and he deserves death!"

Lu Chengqi said lightly: "Forget it, the Supervision Department has only been established for a short time, and it's normal to have insufficient experience. I called you here today, just to know what's going on in Liao, Jurchen, and Korea?"

Xu Jingchun said hastily: "I have a memorial here, Your Majesty will know it after looking at it."

After finishing speaking, Xu Jingchun took out a memorial from his sleeve, and handed it to Lu Chengqi respectfully.Lu Chengqi spread out the memorial and read it carefully.

"Oh, there is such a way to raise pigs?" Lu Chengqi was a little shocked, the pork meal that he ate at the Royal University earlier was still fresh in Lu Chengqi's memory.

Xu Jingchun quickly said: "Return to Your Majesty, I have sent people to castrate the pigs. As for the effect, it will take half a year to see the effect..."

Lu Chengqi nodded, and continued to read the memorial.

"Is there not enough food in Goryeo?"

Xu Jingchun quickly explained: "Returning to Your Majesty, with the help of Huangzhuang, the Supervisory Department has purchased a large amount of autumn grain in Koryo. Now there is a serious shortage of grain in the north of Koryo. Even if they cut down on food and clothing, many people will starve to death..."

Lu Chengqi pondered for a while, then said: "It's against the conscience to do so. Even if the country of Korea does evil, it's none of the business of the people of Korea. Besides, the investment in Huangzhuang must be huge. It's better to sell grain at a high price in the spring of the next year and sell it at a high price. Make a fortune! Return the money you earn to Huangzhuang, and use the rest as funds for the Supervision Department. If you keep reaching out to Huangzhuang, Zitong will show me..."

Lu Chengqi's idea was that using Koryo's economy to feed Dashun would not only weaken Koryo's national power, but also promote Dashun's economic development, which was much better than starving a group of Koryo people to death.Although there may be some young and strong among these Goryeo people, Goryeo's national strength is weak, and if you want to attack Dashun, you have to weigh it yourself.As a big country in the Central Plains, how can Goryeo rival it?It is the army hoarding at the border of Youyun, which has already overwhelmed Goryeo.

Xu Jingchun didn't think too much about it, he was already satisfied with having sufficient funds.The Supervision Department supervises all the officials in the world, and even the Supervision Department also has spies who monitor their own people, and no one dares to reach out.However, the funds are sufficient, and once the inspector dies in the line of duty, he can be compensated in full. This is something that everyone in the inspection department is happy to see.

"Now the Jurchens are still attacking the Grass Valley of the Goryeo Kingdom?" What Lu Chengqi is really interested in is the rise of the Jurchens. The Liao Kingdom is a giant, and the rise of the Jurchens can better share the pressure of Dashun.The rise of the Jurchens was based on the suffering of the Goryeo Kingdom.They raided and plundered regardless of time, so that the people on the border between Goryeo and Jurchen all fled, and the fertile land was barren.Goryeo has a lot of headaches for this. The non-stop harassment of the Jurchens was a very important reason for the previous transition to the suzerain.

Xu Jingchun quickly said: "Your Majesty, the Jurchens have turned against the Liao Kingdom under the instigation of our supervisory department's secret agents. Not long ago, Xiao Xulie, the Prime Minister of the Northern Court of the Liao Kingdom, was appointed by the Emperor Yelu Hongji of the Liao Kingdom. Yue Liji, prepare to encircle and suppress the Jurchen tribe in the spring."

Lu Chengqi was quite surprised: "Oh, I remember that Yueliji should be where Yelu Chongyuan's tribe is located?"

Xu Jingchun smiled and said: "That's right, Your Majesty has a really good memory. Yelu Zhongyuan is now transferred back to the Linhuang Mansion, and he only visits the ministers every day, drinking and having fun. Not long ago, Yelu Nelugu went hunting with the Khitan clan... ..."
