Chapter 753: That Yan Sheng is a fool!
While clarifying his thoughts, Zhou Xu directly wrote down this order.
But before sending the order, he suddenly had a new idea.
There are undoubtedly blacksmiths in the New World, and there are also relevant departments that specialize in forging ordnance and weapons.
Leaving aside crystal iron weapons, Zhou Xu had no idea which one was stronger in terms of technology for making iron weapons.
In this case, we might as well engage in a wave of exchanges and learning.
Anyway, they now have hot air balloons available. It would not hurt to send one or two exchange students there to learn from each other and improve each other.
The more Zhou Xu thought about this matter, the more he felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he immediately wrote another order and asked the soldiers who were responsible for delivering the order to take them away together, and then buried his head again in the pile of mountains in front of him. in the file report.
On this day, Zhou Xu got up an hour earlier than usual, because today was the day of the court meeting.
He has no interest in going to court every day. It's not that he neglects government affairs, but Zhou Xu feels that there is not much to do all day long, so he has to ask him for instructions and reports in person at the court meeting.
So according to his arrangement, this meeting is now once a week.
Of course, if there are particularly important matters, a temporary meeting can also be held for discussion.
At this moment, sitting on the dragon chair in the Chaohui Hall, Zhou Xuzheng was holding his chin with one hand, listening boredly to Li Bowen's impassioned flattery below him, and then couldn't help but yawn. .
"That Yan Sheng, you fool! You dared to proclaim yourself the first emperor. The other kings of other countries died at the hands of the fool Yan Sheng, which is even more mediocre! What a heroic lord I am, the Lord of the Great Zhou Dynasty! With the majestic appearance of the king, how could it be? Can he have the same title as Yan Sheng and those mediocre kings?”
“I second the proposal!”
"..."
As soon as Li Bowen said his impassioned words, the ministers in the palace responded one after another, making Zhou Xu, who was sitting above, roll his eyes.
【Damn, I will have to add one more in the future, the meeting will be once a week, but when the day comes, you can cancel it if nothing happens! Isn't it good to sleep this hour? I hear you guys trying to suck up to labor and management here? ! 】
Although these kind words may sound pleasant to the ears, they also come at a time. Zhou Xu really has no interest in getting up an hour early to listen to these idiots flattering him.
While he was pondering this, Li Bowen's excited voice reached Zhou Xu's ears again.
"The titles of emperor and king really cannot bring out the heroism and sage of the king. For this reason, I have been lying awake at night, thinking hard for several days, and now I boldly propose the word 'Emperor' as a new name for the king!"
< br>At this time, Zhou Xu only felt a sudden pain in his temple.
【Why don’t you work hard all day long and you are just thinking about this? 】
But he just complained casually in his heart.
Why stay up all night and meditate hard for days? Zhou Xu is not stupid enough to take this bullshit seriously. He suppressed the word "emperor". Li Bowen may have been thinking about it for a while, but it is definitely not that exaggerated. .
Just when Zhou Xu was about to say something, all the ministers fell to their knees and started shouting, 'Long live the emperor! ’ The corners of Zhou Xu’s eyes twitched when he saw it.
Now he suddenly understood the feeling of some ancient emperors who wanted to get angry in front of their ministers, but couldn't.
Not to mention that the guys below are not here to force him to have a baby, but are singing his praises, which makes it even more difficult for him to keep his face down.
Youdao stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling person. In the end, he could only spit out two words with a dry smile.
“That’s right.”
While speaking, Zhou Xu quickly winked at the soldiers beside him, signaling the other party to quickly enter the stage of 'starting if something happens, retreating if nothing happens'.
Quickly retreat from the court, counting the time when you can go back and relax for a while.
But at this moment, Li Bowen, who had not returned to the queue at all, shouted again...
"Wei Chen has something to do!"
Zhou Xu's instant expression Stiff. [You better be fine! 】
"Accurate performance."
"Your Majesty! After more than half a year of development, now all the cities in our Zhou Dynasty have been on the right track, and the country has become more stable. Here, I am here. I think your majesty should quickly expand the harem, give birth to an heir as soon as possible, and establish a prince, so as to stabilize our country and the country of Great Zhou!"
As he spoke, all the ministers knelt down again.
"Your Majesty, please expand the harem, give birth to an heir as soon as possible, and establish a prince! Consolidate our country and the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty!!"
"..."
Don't mention it, although this advice to him to open a harem and have children as soon as possible sounds a little embarrassing to Zhou Xu, a modern person, but considering it from the perspective of national development, it is indeed a good thing. Business.
After all, in their land of China, this matter of giving birth has been happening since ancient times, especially as the leader of a country.
This is to prevent the emperor from suddenly belching one day.
Under this premise, if there is a prince, the prince can immediately succeed to the throne, which will minimize the impact of the emperor's death on the country and the country.
Zhou Xu had already turned thirty two years ago. Even in modern times, he was already old enough to start a family.
Doesn’t he think that he can live forever? In this era when medical treatment is not developed enough, if he can live to be sixty or seventy years old, is he considered a long life?
From this point of view, half a lifetime has almost passed, and it is indeed time to think about future generations.
After all, the great Zhou that you have worked so hard to build must be passed on, right?
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu also became serious.
"That's right!"
Zhou Xu has no intention of finding a girl to fall in love with, so how can he have the time?
Since ancient times, the emperor has always had only one way to expand his harem, and that is the draft.
Specific matters will naturally be done by the ministers under his command.
Not to mention, these old court officials are indeed experienced in this area.
After all, when Yan Sheng was alive, he was looking for beauties across the country to expand his harem every now and then, which allowed the following officials to accumulate a lot of experience.
After briefly explaining the matter and seeing that the ministers below had nothing else to do, Zhou Xu announced his resignation.
Walking on the way back to his palace, Zhou Xu couldn't help but sigh...
[Unconsciously, I have become an uncle in his thirties. 】
In this era, there is no such thing as a particularly clear mirror. If you want to confirm your appearance, you can only look at a bronze mirror or look at your reflection in water.
But whether it was the bronze mirror or the reflection in the water, it was not that clear after all. In addition, he had been extremely busy these years, so he really didn't pay much attention to whether he was getting older.
While Zhou Xu was thinking about this, a burst of rapid steps came from behind.
Zhou Xu turned around and saw a soldier leading Xie Liancheng over quickly.
"The last general, Jie Liancheng, meets the emperor!"
After speaking, Jie Liancheng, who maintained his saluting posture, raised his head and raised his eyebrows teasingly at him.
"..."
