Chapter 466 My eldest brother is not easy!(2/2)
Because of his personality, these Utah are afraid of him more than love.
Liu Ying is different. He treats these Utah really as his son. After Liu Fei ’s children died, Liu Fei also regarded the oldest child Liu Ying as his own
Ah father came to love.
Liu Ying received a good hospitality in Qi Guo. From Liu Fei's son to his grandsons, each of them like Liu Ying very much. Liu Ying also prepared gifts for each of them.
Then Liu Ying came to Jiaodong Kingdom and saw Liu Jian.
Liu Jian has passed well these days. The San Gong arranged for him for him is also the top, all of which are the founding celebrities that are stored today.
San Gong, these three are the ministers who have followed the Emperor Gao.
There are not many founding ministers who are still alive today, and with Liu Jian's arrangement, it can be seen that Liu Chang still prefers this younger brother.
"Brother, my Jiaodong country is governed well, right? The most powerful country in the world, after Tang, Liang and Qi, is our Jiaodong. The food produced in our Jiaodong county ranks fourth among the countries in the world, and the people are extremely wealthy.
Even the people of Tang and Liang are not as wealthy as I am in Jiaodong!
"
Liu Jian's eyes were filled with pride.
In fact, Liu Jian's own ability to govern the country is not very strong. The main reason is that Jiaodong Kingdom has great geographical advantages, many ports, and strong support from temples. Several brothers around him are willing to help him, and it has become the center of water transportation, making Jiaodong Kingdom's
Business developed rapidly. In terms of business alone, no vassal state could compare with him.
Liu Ying didn't say anything, just nodded.
"Not bad, very good."
"I have been to so many places, and your place is indeed the most prosperous. The prosperity of this city is comparable to that of Chang'an..."
Liu Jian was even more proud.
In fact, the brothers of this generation, with the exception of Liu Ruyi, are all living quite well, and their fiefdoms are not too bad. Of course, Zhao State is also a very good place, but the damage caused by the war has been too serious, and the development in the past few decades has only been in the area.
After restoring national strength, it will no longer be able to catch up with other vassal states.
"Jian, you've done a great job, but you can't be complacent. Wu State has developed rapidly in recent years, and Yan State has expanded its territory and its strength has increased dramatically. If you are proud and complacent and don't want to make progress, then you will be in the fourth position.
, I’m afraid I won’t be able to save it.”
Liu Jian was stunned and said hurriedly: "Second brother, don't worry. I have set up a special shipbuilding workshop and started to build large ships. Tang, Zhao, Yan, even Namahan, Wu, Chu, even Changsha, Nanyue, want to
When conducting trade, you cannot avoid me, Jiaodong!"
"The more powerful they are, the richer I will be. Second brother, please don't think that my grain production is not as good as that of Qi Liang. In terms of commercial tax revenue, they are not even worthy of carrying my shoes!"
"Your fifth brother gathered the farmers to compete with the temple farmers. You set up a shipyard to compete with the temple shipbuilders. You guys..."
In front of her younger brother, Liu Ying did not have too much fun. During these days, she just wandered around and looked at the scenery here. Speaking of it, Jiaodong was actually not much different from the Qi State. After all, it was originally a part of the Qi State.
There is not much difference in terms of language and customs.
But Liu Ying still stayed with this younger brother for a long time.
When Emperor Gao passed away, Liu Jian was really too young and didn't know what his father was since he was a child. However, Liu Ying and Queen Cao had raised him for a long time and cared for him very much. Compared with other brothers,
, in fact, Liu Ying still loves Liu Jian more, after all, he is the younger brother who he raised.
After staying in Jiaodong Kingdom for a period of time, Liu Ying prepared to go south to Chu, Wu, Nanyue, and Changsha.
After bidding farewell to her younger brother and sitting on the bow of the boat, Liu Ying looked at the ships coming and going in the distance and couldn't help but sigh. Empress Cao stood beside him, "Your Majesty, why are you sighing?"
"I have traveled around various places before. Although not much, I also know the local conditions. In this short period of time, the changes in the place have been so huge. It is not an exaggeration to say that it has been earth-shaking. Even in this scene, my father and the others were not impressed.
Dare to imagine..."
In response, Queen Cao couldn't help but nodded.
They traveled to almost the entire north, and the changes were huge. From counties to vassal states, the development was rapid. At least in the eyes of Empress Cao, this was an unprecedented prosperous era.
Liu Ying frowned, "Everyone just thinks that my eldest brother is a saint, but they don't know how much he has sacrificed for this prosperous age... Alas, now you and I are still playing here, but he can only be locked in the deep palace."
In the middle of the country, he was so overwhelmed by state affairs that he could not hold his head up. When he forcibly abdicated to him...it benefited the world, but it was only unfair to him."
Queen Cao didn't think so.
"How can it be said that it is unfair to succeed to the position of emperor?"
"My younger brother is a playful person. The position of emperor locked in the palace is the greatest torture for him..."
"With so many memorials, I don't know if he is still in good health..."
Liu Ying raised her head, missing her younger brother.
"It's really hard on him..."
...
"Jiejiejie~~~"
In the Houde Hall, Liu Changzheng covered his face and chased around the hall. Fan Qing and Yong'e were hiding from Liu Chang, letting out bursts of crisp laughter. Liu Chang pounced on them several times, but failed to catch the two of them.
The two of them hid quickly, and Liu Chang suddenly jumped forward and hugged one of them.
"Hahaha, caught it?!"
Liu Chang smiled and took the cloth, but saw Shu's mother with a serious face.
The smile on Liu Chang's face suddenly solidified.
"Ahem, queen, look, this is a piece of cloth sent from Bashu. It is said to be made on the latest spinning wheel. I just want to test the quality of this thing. Don't tell me, it's pretty good. I covered my eyes.
Basically nothing can be seen..."
Cao Shu looked at Fan Qing and Yong E who were standing behind him.
Both of them quickly lowered their heads and looked around, pretending that nothing happened.
"Your Majesty, I'm not stopping you from playing. It's just that we are not the only ones in the palace now. Your daughter-in-law is also here. Are you not afraid of being overheard by her? How rude is this?
!”
Cao Shu said seriously.
After Chun Yuyi left, Chunyu Tiying was taken into the palace by the Queen Mother. She did not dare to let her stay outside, saying that she was afraid that she would not be safe alone. In fact, it was to prevent thieves. Today's thieves are very powerful.
He climbed over the wall at every turn, and the thief was young. The Queen Mother did not want the thief to be in bad health at such a young age.
What's more, Tiying is not very old. At this age, if something happens to the thief, it can really lead to serious trouble. Therefore, for the sake of safety, Tiying directly moved in to accompany the Queen Mother.
Facts have proved that the Queen Mother really thought carefully. Liu An, for example, was somewhat opposed. Liu An believed that the security in Chang'an was very good now, so there was no need for her to live in the palace, not to mention that the two had not officially married yet. If she was allowed to move in directly, then
It's a bit unethical.
He even went to Shentujia and told him that this was not etiquette, hoping that Shentujia could help him persuade the Queen Mother. Fortunately, although Shentujia was serious, he was not stupid and did not jump into the pit dug by Liu An.
In the end, Liu An could only aggrieve his wife Mao Chang again. The injury on Mao Chang's buttocks was just right, so he went to persuade the Queen Mother and was beaten again.
Seeing this level of misery, Lu Chan felt sorry for him.
Liu Chang smiled and pulled Cao Shu to sit down, "Didn't the queen go out to do something? Why did she come back so fast? How many more days can she do?"
Cao Shu rolled her eyes, "I went out to celebrate the birthday of Luan Gong's mother. Can this birthday be celebrated for several days in a row?"
"Oh, yes, yes, is everything going well? Is the old man still okay?"
"The old man is quite good. His son, Luan Gong, was caught by Tingwei when he was driving outside. Luan Gong kept a straight face all day and said nothing. Fortunately, Xuan Moru brought his son out in time...
