The reason why Su Liu put Wang Zhifan in power was mainly because of long-term self-interest.
If we don't introduce the old and adopt the new, how can we cultivate a power group that will become the future prince?
The internal security manager is an important part of this. With their support, there will be room to expand outward.
What are minions?
They are!
So, will the ministers object?
how come?
This kind of appointment is an internal matter within the palace, and no courtier has the right to interfere.
To put it bluntly, what kind of dog does the royal family want to keep, and they still need to obtain their consent?
joke!
Besides, isn't it more than enough for the dignified Jin Kewu champion to hold the position of general manager?
He is worthy of his position, what's wrong with it?
However, what is most important to the Queen is the hatred accumulated between Wang Zhifan and the Qi family. If it were not for this reason, he might not be able to get this high position!
As he gradually became familiar with it, Wang Zhifan asked his master the reason.
Seeing that he had always been loyal and loyal, Su Liu told him: "Qi Yu needs to be both friendly and restrained. At different times, he needs to be treated differently."
Wang Zhifan asked curiously: "How do you say this...?"
"In the early days, the prince's foundation was somewhat shaky, and he urgently needed powerful ministers like Qi Yu to stand up for him. Only with the full support of people like them could he be successfully established as the crown prince. During this period of time,
, we need to lower our profile and actively engage in friendship, and we must also win their trust with corresponding benefits."
"However, after the crown prince ascended the throne, these ministers with heavy military forces became the emperor's number one enemies! If they cannot be used for their own purposes, they can only find ways to suppress or eradicate them. Otherwise, the new king who ascends the throne will not be able to sit firmly in this position.
Country! And Qi Yu is such a big thorn in the side."
oh, I get it!
The so-called different periods are all based on Li Hongyu's growth.
But in fact, Qi Yu not only did not rebel, but also made generous disaster relief acts. From this aspect, how could he be regarded as a big thorn?
Although Wang Zhifan disliked Qiongzhou very much, he still discussed matters relatively objectively.
The queen explained: "He has a special ability that no one else can match, and this ability is destined to prevent him from living a mediocre life. The so-called obedience cannot happen to him."
After a pause, she added: "In addition, when he last reported on his duties, I asked him face to face whether he would be loyal to the emperor for the rest of his life, but he replied that what he was loyal to was this country, or rather this country.
The Chinese nation is not a lofty king of temples. This shows that he still has some personal ideas. Therefore, this person must be on guard."
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhifan hurriedly expressed his loyalty again.
He had suffered great losses and been humiliated at the hands of the Qi family. If he had the opportunity to avenge his past humiliation, how could he not support him?
Okay, let’s get back to the present.
Su Liu couldn't help laughing after hearing the situation reported by Wang Zhifan about the Qi and Liang families.
She was indeed very happy.
The more fiercely the courtiers fight, the more they benefit from it, don't they?
If they all united, wouldn't their own actions of Si Chen become the sudden focus?
But now, I can take advantage of the opportunity when they are fighting each other to gain some valuable time in operations.
As the conversation gradually deepened, a guard suddenly came to report in a hurry: "Report to the chief manager, Your Majesty, he..."
Wang Zhifan was shocked at first when he heard this, and then asked hurriedly: "Your Majesty, what happened to him?"
"His Majesty went south secretly and paid a private visit incognito!"
"What? Private visit via incognito?"
"yes!"
When the queen heard this, she curled her lips and left leisurely.
Regarding this, he didn't even say a single word.
In fact, she had long known about His Majesty's intention to go south, but she didn't pay special attention to it.
Now that the Golden Palace Passage has passed, and the important matter of the steam engine has been solved, it seems that it is really time to set off.
…
At the dock of Dagu Port, there is a ship with a brand new exterior paint docked.
It was very elegantly built and looked majestic, attracting the attention of many passers-by.
This ship is an expanded version of the battleship Unicron. Now it is equipped with the latest steam engine accessories. Why don't you try it out in a showy way?
must!
It should too!
Sure enough, not long after, the ship officially set sail.
Its course is heading due south.
Wander, wander.
As long as there is enough waves, there will naturally be flow.
The emperor, dressed in plain clothes, stood meaningfully on the deck, looking at the amazing waves in front of him, and personally experiencing this brand-new military weapon.
The speed of this ship is indeed very fast.
And, as the legend says, you can go against the wind.
No wonder, no wonder, the fleet in Nanyang is so powerful. It turns out that it has such blessing.
Of course, this also has something to do with Qi Yu's bravery and proficiency in battle, which must not be ignored. This guy must have maximized the superiority of this ship, so he was able to absolutely crush...
As he continued to think deeply, the emperor's playfulness began to gradually weaken, and was replaced by a sense of rapid changes brought about by this era.
yes!
You still have to step out of the palace from time to time to see what the outside world is like.
Only through personal observation and experience can we truly understand how the world is changing.
"There is a saying in the book that it is better to travel thousands of miles after reading the book! It can be seen that this statement is indeed true!"
"This time, let me experience the beauty of Nanyang!"
"..."
A few days later, the Great Emperor arrived in the waters under the jurisdiction of Yingtian Mansion.
And here, the emperor unexpectedly ordered the ship to anchor.
After a brief pause, an old-fashioned eunuch named Ma came to see him.
"This slave is here to meet His Majesty!"
"Yeah! No need!"
After sitting down, the emperor gave a concise order: "On this voyage to the West, we must find the old immortal. We must see the person in life and the corpse in death. We must not return without success!"
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Ma replied tremblingly: "I will obey the imperial edict!"
After a pause, he cautiously asked again: "Your Majesty, did you say that person is in Tianzhu?"
The emperor still answered with great care: "According to the secret letter, it is indeed the case, it should be correct!"
Seeing that the emperor did not want to talk more, Eunuch Ma had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.
Compared with the previous voyages to the Western Sea, this one was the largest in scale. This trip not only brought a large number of accompanying internal guards, but also seconded a lot of navy from the East China Sea.
Even the newly built steam engine battleships were dispatched in many numbers.
Looking at this gesture, the Holy Emperor seems to have spent a lot of money.
