Chapter 1604 Demon Concubine 15
In fact, Emperor Yuanfeng wanted to make An Ran his queen.
The reason why he didn't do it before was because An Ran didn't have any children and he felt that it was still lacking in temperament. Now that he has children, he feels that he can establish her as a queen.
However, many ministers in the court objected. After all, they had always called An Ran the Demon Concubine. Since they called her the Demon Concubine, it was naturally impossible for them to agree to make her the queen.
Besides, if Anran is made the queen, she has a son. After she is made the queen, her son will automatically become the eldest son. In Dazhou, there are usually direct eldest sons, but no eldest son or virtuous son. In other words,
If Anran is agreed to be the queen, then her son will become the prince. How is this possible? You must know that the first four princes are already very young. Many ministers have invested in the first four princes, which makes them change their tune.
, and what’s even more terrible is that they have changed their tune to the point where they have been attacking Concubine Zhang Guifei, who may have conflicts with them. How could they be willing? They are very afraid that An Ran will hold a grudge against them, and they may not be able to get a good deal if they join forces now, so naturally
I objected.
Even if three of the four princes fall, it will not stop these ministers from investing in them. After all, who knows who will really fall until the last moment. Those who fall may be dormant for the time being, waiting for the opportunity to come again.
Get up?
Seeing the objections of the ministers, Emperor Yuanfeng was angry and cursed, saying that this is my family matter, why do you interfere.
The ministers said that any family affairs are related to the foundation of the country. This is a national matter and cannot be measured by family affairs.
In the end, Emperor Yuanfeng was very angry, but because he could not defeat the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, he had no choice but to temporarily grant An Ran an imperial concubine.
As I said before, as long as they do not infringe on the interests of the civil service group, they... are not 100% opposed to Emperor Yuanfeng, but they will decide whether to oppose Emperor Yuanfeng depending on their mood; of course, if they infringe on the interests of the civil service group, they will 100% do so.
Oppose Emperor Yuanfeng.
Because the imperial concubine and the empress were different, and they had rejected Emperor Yuanfeng before, they were afraid that continuing to refuse would make Emperor Yuanfeng rebellious, so they gave in when Emperor Yuanfeng said that An Ran would be made the imperial concubine.
Agreed.
Encountering such a powerful group, Emperor Yuanfeng was helpless. Sometimes he could not help complaining to An Ran: "I don't know how our ancestors did things. They left me such a big disaster. Now I can't rectify it even if I want to. They
It has become a climate."
An Ran nodded and secretly looked at the several worlds she knew. When encountering this kind of situation, if you want to rectify it, you have to be very capable. Usually, the dynasty falls and everything is overthrown.
However, ordinary people can't do anything about it, but she is a person who has been through countless worlds, but she still has a way - if it can't be solved from the inside, then it will collapse from the outside. When the outside is a new world, these stubborn people
Elements, clinging to their interests, those small interests cannot stop others from yearning for the colorful world outside. When the time comes, they will look at the colorful world outside and want to make trouble in the broader world. Without fighting spirit, they will naturally collapse.
.
Of course, the most important thing is that there must be a new world outside, so An Ran asked at that moment: "How is the development of our maritime trade? Have you gone further? I have discovered the place now.
The more you have, the greater your harvest will be. After all, there are always good places out there. It’s not like here, where the opportunities to make a fortune are all robbed by people from top to bottom."
After listening to An Ran's words, Emperor Yuanfeng nodded and said: "We have asked them to go further afield. We are now establishing small strongholds here and there. As you said, we will prevent them from being left floating on the sea if any accident occurs."
Escape route. Twenty or thirty small strongholds have been established now. The income from sea trade is very good. Thanks to my concubine for letting me build a fleet at that time, we are not short of money now."
The idea of this small stronghold was naturally brought up by An Ran, otherwise Emperor Yuanfeng would never have thought of it.
Of course, on the surface, Anron said it was to give the Zhou fleet a retreat. In fact, this was only one aspect. More importantly, Anron wanted to slowly develop overseas immigration. The population of Dazhou was still growing rapidly.
There are more and more people, but the place is only so big, so it is easy for unrest to occur.
By organizing those who can no longer survive and slowly emigrating overseas, they not only seek a way out, but also nip the turmoil in the bud, killing two birds with one stone.
There is no need to worry that these immigrants will not be safe outside. There is a navy of the Zhou Dynasty. No, it is a navy of the Zhou Dynasty now. They are protected. They are not the unarmed people who traveled to the South and the West. No one dares to do anything to them. Otherwise, who would dare?
By harming the people of the Zhou Dynasty, the navy of the Zhou Dynasty will have an excuse to send troops to a certain place.
——This is naturally what An Ran told Emperor Yuanfeng.
If there are no immigrants in the Zhou Dynasty, there will be immigrants from the West, especially some large desert islands. It would be a pity not to occupy them. Instead of letting others occupy them in the future, wouldn't it be better for us to occupy them in the past?
Because we have money and a stronghold, the development of sea trade is like a snowball, developing faster and faster.
Emperor Yuanfeng was afraid that the navy would take too many advantages - the fleet must have taken a lot of advantage. The only thing Emperor Yuanfeng could do now was to prevent them from taking too much advantage - and at the same time, in order to spread the risk, according to An Ran,
Multiple fleets were formed, so as to avoid only one fleet being formed, and the other party bullying Emperor Yuanfeng for not understanding the outside market and deliberately handing over only a small amount of profits.
In fact, Enron asked Emperor Yuanfeng to build several more fleets to spread risks and prevent one fleet from easily getting too much oil. It was only one aspect of it. More importantly, it was for the sake of multi-faceted development.
The future will be an ocean world. There are too few fleets to become the overlord in this vast world. Even if we are not the overlord, the more the better, at least we will not be beaten.
An Ran felt relieved when Emperor Yuanfeng said that the navy was developing according to her plan, and she immediately congratulated Emperor Yuanfeng and said: "Congratulations to your majesty for getting more and more money!"
In this way, Emperor Yuanfeng can reduce taxes for the world during the upcoming severe drought. Even if there is turmoil by then, it should not be as severe as it was in the original world.
Emperor Yuanfeng didn't know An Ran's plan, but even if he didn't know that An Ran was saving him and the dynasty, he felt very happy after hearing her congratulations, and the two of them had another business brawl.
And An Ran was named the imperial concubine, which naturally caused waves in the harem.
The various concubines who were somewhat favored during Anron's pregnancy thought that they could become new favored concubines based on their abilities. They also thought that Anron would be ruined by her pregnancy and confinement, so they deliberately occupied Anron's house.
