Xia Liqing was slightly stunned and didn't understand what Emperor Rongcheng meant. He could only lower his head and replied: "It's good. My son brought a gift to my father today!"
"Oh?" Emperor Rongcheng suddenly became interested, "What gift?"
Xia Liqing smiled, handed the thick stack of manuscripts in his hand to Jin Feng, and motioned for him to hand it to Emperor Rongcheng.
"This is the first proofreading draft of "General History of Southwest China". I just finished it yesterday. I stopped by today and wanted to show it to my father first!"
Xia Liqing said it very sincerely.
In fact, this is indeed the case. When it comes to resentment, of course he resents Emperor Rongcheng, but after seeing so many things, he can understand Emperor Rongcheng and the situation of the Xie family at that time. After all, if he wants to achieve change, he will eventually
Someone still has to sacrifice.
Shang Yang's reforms and Wang Anshi's reforms, aren't these the best examples?
As a clear lesson from history, the most important thing is to find ways to realize my uncle's lifelong ambition instead of harboring useless resentments.
Emperor Rongcheng became interested at this moment and hurriedly turned through the pages, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The records in this book are extremely detailed, and there are even some annotations in Baiyi language. The customs, military and politics of the entire southwest region are basically covered in it.
The emperor has always been uneasy about Lan Guo, after all, this was the overlord of the southwest.
Unlike Anguo, which he conquered with his own hands, it is basically difficult to trust those who surrendered on their own initiative.
And after all, it is located in a remote area. Sometimes he can't understand the things handed over by King Yun Dian and the information from various places in the southwest...
Under such circumstances, the publication of such a book is as if someone handed me a pillow when I was dozing off.
Emperor Rongcheng weighed the book, put it gently in his hand, and said with a hint of meaning: "I have communicated with King Yundian during the war for so many years. The southwest is extremely complicated, and the Baiyi language is even more complex.
There are so many kinds, and you can eat them all so quickly... Is there a gentleman with you?"
Xia Liqing's heart tightened, and before she could say anything, her ears turned red.
"Father... son and minister..."
"That Princess Youlan, she came with Southwest's sincerity this time, no problem! I don't blame her, but will reward her heavily! She did a good job!" Emperor Rongcheng laughed, looking at his always calm self
It was the first time that my son showed such a panicked look, and he couldn't help but find it interesting.
Xia Liqing felt relieved.
I have to say that Southwest has done really well this time. In the past six months, Rongguo has had many things going on and has no energy to embarrass Southwest anymore. It is basically in a free-range state.
I originally thought that the royal family in the southwest would develop some backlash, but unexpectedly, Jiang Shu's arrival directly dispelled the emperor's dissatisfaction.
Although the reason for arriving early was mainly to celebrate Wen Ranran's wedding, the amount of tribute this time and some newly proposed policies made Emperor Rongcheng very satisfied.
Not to mention, the current Princess Youlan has assisted Xia Liqing in writing such a unique book.
This is equivalent to handing over all the lifeline weaknesses of the Southwest into the hands of Emperor Rongcheng, which can further help him control the Southwest.
The emperor weighed the notebook at hand, sighed, looked at Xia Liqing, and said happily: "You have fallen in love with Princess Youlan?"
Xia Liqing was stunned and her ears suddenly turned red.
"Fourth, you are a good boy... It's just that Mr. Jiang came to see me just now. The implication is that he hopes to find a marriage partner for his daughter!" Emperor Rongcheng smiled, but what he said made Xia Li blush.
The smile on his face disappeared instantly.
"Father...this..." Xia Liqing was a little anxious.
"Don't worry, I didn't directly agree... I'll fight back after doing Tai Chi," Emperor Rongcheng looked at Xia Liqing and said with a smile, "However, after the new year, Jiang Zijing, the captain of the Bin Kingdom, will also come to congratulate him. I made it clear in the book.
If you want to get married, Princess Liu Xiner of the guest country is also a rare beauty..."
