Scholars unparalleled

Page 432

Although Lu Chensheng is not so narrow-minded, but outsiders don't think so, they naturally have to worry about whether it will touch Lu Chensheng.

If it was before, Lu Chensheng did not have such an identity, but had the reputation of being the number one talented person. Those talented people who fought against Lu Chensheng would definitely find a way to beat Lu Chensheng.

But that is no longer the case.

Even if Lu Chensheng recruited Du Rufang and Yu Feihan, two talents whose talents were almost the same as his at that time, it was still the same.

Having said that, I haven't seen Yu Feihan for a long time. Du Rufang is now working for the Xinghan Empire, so I don't know what is going on with Yu Feihan now.

Thinking of this, Lu Chensheng couldn't help but recall the scene of playing chess with the two in the Zhaixing Building.

After hearing this, Lin Yu thought about it carefully, then nodded gently.

After thinking about it, this is really the case. Those talented scholars will definitely find a way to show their names when they come to the poetry meeting together.

But if Lu Chensheng participated, the situation would be different. It would be a big taboo to overwhelm Lu Chensheng.

"Forget it, my husband doesn't write much poetry anyway."

Lin Yu thought about it, and dropped the idea.

Nowadays, Lu Chensheng is busy with too many things all day long, and it is true that he doesn't write much poetry.

"If my wife likes poetry, I think there will be many excellent works published tonight."

Lu Chensheng thought for a while, there are quite a few talented people in Xinghan City, and they probably also want to be famous tonight.

Lin Yu just smiled when he heard the words, and didn't say much.

She only likes Lu Chensheng, and also likes the poems written by Lu Chensheng, as for the rest, she doesn't have that much feeling anymore.

If not, she might have sent someone to inquire at this time, whether any masterpieces have been born at this time.

After walking around the imperial city, Lu Chensheng ordered a small boat when he was tired. He took Yueyue and the others on a boat tour. The scenery at night was indeed very good.

Lu Chensheng stood on the bow, and the scholars in the other boats saw that Lu Chensheng was also dressed as a scholar, they all bowed their hands to Lu Chensheng from afar, and Lu Chensheng returned the salute.

Such a scene appeared extremely harmonious on the river.

There are also quite a few ladies in small boats, seeing Lu Chensheng from a distance, with a dignified appearance, and his gestures and gestures are even more extraordinary. While secretly sizing up, they are also entangled in whether they should go forward and ask for their names.

It's just that before they struggled for long, the boats had already passed by, but they had no chance.

After the willow tree on the moon, Lu Chensheng took the girls back home.

The moon is like a jade plate, illuminating a piece of silvery white on the earth. At this time, you can see the road without candles.

After the Lantern Festival, the early morning of the new year ushered in.

The ministers wore Shangguan uniforms and waited outside the main hall early, and they had to wait for the time to enter before entering the hall.

It was rather cold outside the hall, and I didn't know how warm it was until I entered the hall.

Lu Chensheng came to the main hall in a dragon boat, and the ministers saw that Lu Chensheng no longer needed to bow down, they just bowed to show their respect.

Then, Lu Chensheng signaled to the ministers that they could sit down and rest.

There is a large pool in the main hall, which divides the civil and military ministers on both sides.

There are low tables and chairs on both sides, and the ministers sit cross-legged to rest, with thick satin cushions under their bodies, which will not be cold at all, but extremely soft.

On the low table, there are also the four treasures of the study. If the minister needs to write, he can do it at any time.

If a minister forgot to bring the memorial, or if he remembered something temporarily, or if he needed to record something, he could write directly.

It can be said that the rules in this hall are not very strict, on the contrary, they take great care of the ministers.

The Minister of Household Affairs considered his words for a while, then got up and prepared to report.

Chapter 7 Eleven Preparations for the Voyage

"Your Majesty, this year's snow disaster has disappeared, and all the people affected by the disaster have been settled properly, and the houses are already being rebuilt."

Li Daifu submitted the news he had obtained, and wrote them one by one in the memorial, and presented them to Lu Chensheng.

The attendant delivered it to Lu Chensheng, waited for Lu Chensheng to look at it, and then nodded.

"You've done a good job. Lovers have done a good job in disaster relief this time. There was no delay in dispatching supplies and troops."

Lu Chensheng was concerned about the action during the disaster relief, and all these ministers did a good job, so Lu Chensheng was quite satisfied.

Hearing this, Li Daifu hurriedly shouted that it was all thanks to the Holy Majesty.

After Li Daifu went down, a minister immediately stood up and reported.

"The minister has a book to play."

"Say."

Lu Chensheng sat up slightly, waved his hands and said.

"The shipyard has now built a hundred ships, and they are ready to go to sea. If the Holy One promises, they can go to sea and explore overseas places."

Hearing this, Lu Chensheng could not help but sit up straight, "Hundred ships? The construction speed is so fast?"

Lu Chensheng wondered why the speed of construction had suddenly accelerated so much.

According to Lu Chensheng's understanding of the shipyard, the speed of construction should not be so fast.

"Returning to the saint, the people in the shipyard handed over some parts of the ship to other people to build, so the speed is much faster."

After the minister gave an explanation, Lu Chensheng finally understood why he came so fast.

Although the speed of building ships at the shipyard is very fast, but there are so many people, it is impossible to build so many ships at this time.

Simply contract out some work.

In this way, the speed of ship construction is much faster, and some craftsmen can also earn money.

Because of this, craftsmen in many places have made a lot of money this year.

After Lu Chensheng listened to it, his heart became clear, and after thinking about it, his heart moved.

It's winter right now, and I don't know what the climate is like here, but on Earth, it's just a good time to go to sea and sail, relying on the monsoon.

In this way, just give it a try.

"Well, now that the ship has been built, let's get ready to sail. Are all the items ready? In addition, the supplies on the ship also need to be prepared. In addition, the soldiers' arrangements, compass, binoculars and other items, Are you all ready?"

Lu Chensheng asked one by one.

It is not that simple to go out to sea and find a new continent.

There are too many things to prepare, and it is reasonable for Lu Chensheng to ask so many things at this time.

"Your Majesty, everything is almost ready. This is the prepared item. Please take a look at it."

With that said, a thick memorial was presented.

A large amount of silver is needed to build a ship, but it also requires a large amount of money to carry things when going out to sea. The money is used to buy all kinds of silk, tea, porcelain, jade bracelets and other items.

With more than 100 ships, how much do you need to earn?Thinking about it makes people feel a little scalp numb.

Thanks to the money, there is no need for the treasury to pay for it. Those aristocratic families have joined together to fund the money.

Lu Chensheng looked at them one by one, and then saw later that the family wanted to send some of their own children to follow the petition.

At any rate, there are aristocratic families who spent millions of taels of silver and directly poured in. At this time, as long as the ship is sailing far away, it seems a bit bad not to send some people to follow.

Lu Chensheng didn't think there was anything wrong, so he just followed if the other party wanted to send someone to follow.

Supplies for the crew, including some canned food.

They are all glass-packed canned fruits. It is difficult to eat such things on the boat, and it is very difficult for a person to be adrift at sea, especially if the boat is not a giant steel beast.

Fortunately, Lu Chensheng had asked people to study the rations for marching a long time ago, and this canned food was one of them.

The current canned food is not that good in terms of shelf life, but relying on the current refrigeration technology and adding something similar to a refrigerator made of bronze can play a good role in refrigeration.

The bronze ware is extremely ingenious and can play a good role in refrigeration.

Lu Chensheng read it one by one, and then handed the memorial back after reviewing, "If you are fully prepared, you can go directly to the voyage, and you don't need to ask for instructions when you go to the voyage."

"Yes!"

When the minister heard the words, he immediately echoed, then bowed and stepped aside.

The construction of the ship was completed and it was about to set sail. This was a surprise for Lu Chensheng. If the voyage goes well this time, there will be more things brought back by then.

And it would be even better if some high-yielding crops were brought back.

Therefore, Lu Chensheng couldn't wait to dispatch the long-distance ships.

After the minister withdrew, the rest of the ministers immediately stood up one by one and made a report.

After discussing with the ministers one by one, Lu Chensheng made a response.

Another headache for Lu Chensheng is that the five major legions now have more than 50 troops, and each legion has only 10 troops.

Logically speaking, the majestic Xinghan Empire has only 50 soldiers, which is indeed a bit too low.

Moreover, this is not enough to show the strength of the Xinghan Empire. According to the ministers, it should expand its armaments.

This proposal made the generals on the side overjoyed.

They were actually thinking about proposing to the Holy One to expand their armaments, but their identities were too sensitive.

They are generals, and they all lead troops. They want to expand their armaments. Doesn't this make people feel that they have ulterior motives, do they want to rebel?

So they are determined not to say anything about this matter.

The civil servants thought about it and felt that it should be expanded.

"The 50 army is indeed much smaller in number. However, the number of armaments produced by the workshop is limited, and the army's salary is very expensive, but the current treasury does not support it."

This time, without waiting for Li Daifu to complain, Lu Chensheng directly shook his head and vetoed it.

If possible, Lu Chensheng also wanted to expand the size of the army.

However, Lu Chensheng is already starting to expand his arsenal to speed up the construction of armaments, which will cost a lot of money.

On the other hand, the soldiers' salaries are also a huge expense.

After Lu Chensheng thought about it, he didn't dare to expand at will. If he was expanding, Lu Chensheng could only use some unconventional means to get some money.

Chapter 7 Twelve Three Happiness

The court meeting lasted for a long time, and after everything was dealt with, Lu Chensheng announced his withdrawal from the court.

There is such good news today, the ships are all ready, and they can set off in a day or two.

With Lu Chensheng's will, these ships don't have to wait for Lu Chensheng's instructions from now on, they can just set off directly.

The paired soldiers on the ship have already been selected, and they are a school captain recommended by Cheng Xue. Cheng Xue appreciates them a lot, but there is no chance to show them off.

If he can successfully lead the fleet to sail this time, maybe he can go a step further, and it is not impossible to spy on the position of the general.

Now there are two large armies without a commander, and they are waiting for someone to take this position.

When Lu Chensheng came back, he was about to share the good news with Qiongyue and the others, but when he saw that the expressions of the three girls were a little strange.

"My lady, what's the matter?"

Lu Chensheng looked at it, and felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the faces of the three women, and there were some signs of retching while speaking.

Seeing this, Lu Chensheng quickly called the imperial doctor.

The imperial doctor arrived very quickly, and it was all the doctors in the entire imperial doctor who got their pulses one by one, and then discussed for a while.

In fact, the imperial doctors all came to the same conclusion. The reason why they bothered so much was because of the identities of the three of them, and they needed to be cautious.

If this caused an oolong, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor, which is absolutely unbearable.

Therefore, after deliberating for a long time, the imperial doctors made sure that they were correct and went forward to congratulate them.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, the three empresses are all very happy!"

Are you happy?

When Lu Chensheng heard this, he was stunned. Now the three girls are happy?

Both Qiong Yue and Bai Yi had experience, and had already had such a premonition before, and although they were a little happy when they heard this, they were not too surprised.

On the other hand, Lin Yu stood up suddenly when she heard this, she had been thinking about this for an indeterminate amount of time, but now she was finally pregnant.
