Since he had a detailed talk with Zhao Yali that day, Li Yun abolished some radical new policies. He thought what Zhao Yali said was very interesting. The new policies were not completed in one day, and the significance of constitutionalism could not be understood by the officials and the people in one year. These are gradual progress, and the time can naturally be implemented.

Shen Baozhen held a long list of death row prisoners in his hand. This is the list of the country's most serious death row prisoners. There are thousands of people near the capital alone. I will persuade them later. There are many backbone members of the death row prisoners, and it will be endless troubles if they are released.

"Mr. Shen, the emperor promises you an audience."

Shen Baozhen nodded to Minshu and walked quickly.

"Since the Emperor, Shen Baozhen!"

Li Yun put down a memorial and said without raising his head: "No gift!"

Shen Baozhen presented the memorial with both hands and reported loudly: "Your Majesty is the list of death row prisoners in the country. I have gathered them in Tianjin and Shanghai and can set off at any time, but there are many thieves, and it is probably a huge disaster if you release them. Please think twice!"

Li Yun opened the memorial and was dazzled by the long name on it. He threw the list aside and replied: "Let them work, not let them rebel. There are big places, and there are many wild animals and natives. They are just obedient. If they don't obey, they will starve to death. The most important thing is that the seasons are cold and not suitable for war. They can't develop even if they go. Don't worry."

Shen Baozhen couldn't understand and asked, "Why did the emperor let them go to Beizhou? Since it is barren and cold, we just don't want it. What's the use of exiling people there?"

Li Yun smiled and said, "There are good things on it!"

Shen Baozhen clasped his fists and asked, "Dare you ask what's on it?"

Li Yun was in a good mood and did not hide it. He replied: "Gold! There is a lot of gold. I sent them to Beizhou to dig gold mines. There are a lot of gold mines there."

Only then did Shen Baozhen understand and said intimately: The emperor did this in private, probably because he wanted to take gold for himself, so I can't ruin the emperor's plan.

Immediately swears: "Don't worry, the emperor, I will keep the secret strictly. I will never reveal a word!"

Li Yun smiled and said, "That's nothing. When the news of gold-producing in Beizhou spread, the people will definitely flock to it. It will be difficult to manage it at that time. Besides, the climate there is harsh, so the people will definitely suffer heavy casualties. This is not good!"

Shen Baozhen smiled secretly: When the news spreads, no matter whether you are the 18th floor hell or the knife mountain oil pan, will the people still have any reason to go?

Li Yun finally instructed: "I will send people to guide the way. These are people who have been to Beizhou. If you send people to be the commander of these death row prisoners, don't let them act alone. In this way, a group of death row prisoners will be sent there every year. If you pass on it, you can be acquitted if you work for five years. If you are willing to live in the local area, you can distribute wasteland for free."

Shen Baozhen nodded, agreeing with the idea.

Minshu came in and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty. Zhao Laoqi is asking for a meeting outside."

Li Yun said to Shen Baozhen: "You go down first, and do as I told you, and send someone to transport the gold back every three months."

Shen Baozhen should have done so and bowed to retreat.

"My minister Zhao Laoqi bowed to the emperor!"

"How about it, is the trip to Shanghai still going smoothly?"

Zhao Laoqi replied: "Your Majesty, the empress has cracked down on three sects of rebellion and arrested the rebellion (9, thirteen of them were executed. The rest were taken away by the Ministry of Justice. This is too much, they..."

Li Yun waved his hand and replied, "This is what I ordered."

"Yes! Emperor." Zhao Laoqi did not dare to continue complaining. He replied: "The emperor asked me to monitor Japan, and I also found a lot of discoveries."

Li Yun became solemnly. He admired Japan's small country. The implementation of the new policy in the previous few days was a little impatient and summoned all officials to oppose it. However, Japan's total westernization and no one caused trouble. It was really strange.

"Speak quickly!"

Zhao Laoqi replied: "Japan implemented a new policy and vigorously developed the navy and army. Now there are 100,000 regular army nationwide, all of which hired Western instructors to train, and established a staff department in accordance with the Han Dynasty. The combat power should not be underestimated. But vigorously built shipyards and purchased Western warships. This year, tens of thousands of people were sent to Europe to study."

Li Yun took a deep breath and said in surprise: "Sensationalism, Japan's small country, who do you think their goal is to work hard like this?"

Zhao Laoqi smiled and said, "Of course it's the big Han Dynasty. Even if it's not the big Han Dynasty, we cannot allow them to become stronger gradually, otherwise it will only affect the big Han Dynasty's foreign policy. The weak ministers suggest sending troops to Japan."

Li Yun shook his head slowly and sighed: "It's not the time yet. I have hundreds of thousands of troops levy outside. If the war starts rashly, military expenditure will be a huge amount."

Zhao Laoqi nodded and sent at least 300,000 elite troops to win steadily.

Li Yun suddenly asked, "How is North Korea doing?"

Zhao Laoqi was stunned for a moment, and thought about it for a while, and immediately replied: "It is not easy for the Korean king to station troops. Not only that, they also gathered a lot of troops in the north, which seemed to be very scared."

Li Yun said: "There is no time to waste time with them now. Let's take North Korea first while Japan is not strong yet. In this way, they will not dare to make the North Korean idea, and at most they will just act secretly."

Zhao Laoqi smiled bitterly and said, "The emperor thought twice. There are many ministers in the North Korea oppose this matter. North Korea has always been respectful to the country. I am afraid that it will send troops rashly. Not only will North Korea fight to the death, but even the Han Dynasty will have someone to help secretly. Can you change the way?"

Li Yun asked, "What's your solution?"

Zhao Laoqi said: "I remember that there are also a rebellious party in North Korea. We secretly support them to rebel. As long as the King of Korea cannot support it, we will definitely ask for help from the Han Dynasty. At that time, we will advance to North Korea with justification and station large troops in dangerous places. We are not afraid of North Korea, and Japan will not accept it."

Li Yun said intimately: This is also a solution.

"You go and do it immediately. Within one year, I will actually control North Korea!"

"I obey the order!"

Zhao Laoqi presented a memorial and replied: "Your Majesty, this is the latest news received by the Intelligence Bureau."

Li Yun looked at it briefly, was extremely surprised, and said in a lost voice: "What! Alexander intends to make peace?"

Zhao Laoqi nodded calmly. He didn't know much about European countries, so he could only listen to the emperor's explanation.

Li Yun was confused and just transported the Lianzhu gun to the European front line, Alexander wanted to surrender. Does he really want to fight, or he still can't fight? At least he should win a few battles on the front line before peace can be negotiated. This way, the war can be ended decently. What exactly did Alexander think?

In fact, Li Yun was wrong. Russia really couldn't fight. Before the continuous gun was transported to the place, the front-line generals took advantage of the new emperor's ascension to the throne and launched several attacks, and all of them were defeated and lost many fortresses. The front-line generals and soldiers were all pessimistic and did not think that a few continuous guns could change the end of the war. Moreover, the British and French coalition forces had more continuous guns than them.

Twenty-three serf uprisings broke out in Russia in three months, and Alexander had to face the reality and admitted that it would be better to solve it from the top than from the bottom.

Li Yun was up and down. If the Crimean War ended, not only Britain but France would focus on the situation in the Far East, but even Russia would turn its attention to the east. The pressure from the Han Dynasty was unprecedentedly strong.

"You go back immediately and send people to Nanyang, and ask at any time to report on the situation there, especially the mobilization of British troops, whether there is an increase in warships, and whether there is a Netherlands and Spain slaughtering Chinese."

Zhao Laoqi asked nervously: "The emperor is planning to march into Nanyang?"

Li Yun nodded solemnly and said, "The Han Navy has developed secretly for three years and has begun to take shape. I plan to find a reason to enter Nanyang, and first aim at the Netherlands and Spain, and fight a war in Nanyang, so that Britain can see the strength of our Han Dynasty and let them be afraid of it."

Zhao Laoqi replied: "Yes, I understand."

Li Yun reminded: "You can do this in person. I will gather the navy in Taiwan. As long as there is any movement in Nanyang, you will immediately report to Tang Zhengcai, and he will lead the navy to attack Nanyang."
