Yu Zizhen didn't care about the emotional tug-of-war between Yu Zicheng and Princess Beiyan, and she couldn't care less about the secret thoughts of some people in China at the moment.
She did not intend to catch all the monks in one fell swoop and leave them no way out, so apart from asking them to "make no exceptions before the law", Yu Zizhen did not intend to do anything else to the monks.
Even for the large amount of land they owned, Yu Zizhen planned to wait until they could not find enough hired farmers to help with the farming, and then she would naturally take it back bit by bit.
Chinese law stipulates that land that has been left fallow for three years must be nationalized, so Yu Zizhen is not in a hurry to confront those big landlords head-on.
People's hearts are upward, and she believed that as long as she provided ordinary people with a stable, prosperous and dignified life, they would no longer abandon their good status and become low-level slaves who were beaten and scolded at will and could only be regarded as living objects.
She is still young and has a lot of life left in her. She believes that she can change the current situation in China during her lifetime.
She put these non-urgent matters aside for the time being. The one thing she had to deal with immediately was that the foreign ethnic groups in Southern Xinjiang, Northern Yan, and Western Xinjiang, after failing to gain any advantage at the border, actually formed a group and sent envoys to the capital of China.
They went on the mission under the pretext of celebrating Yu Zizhen's accession to the throne and his wedding, but in reality they came to gather intelligence and form an alliance with China.
Not to mention spying, no one could do such a thing with good intentions. As for marriage, it might be a good thing for other countries or other emperors, but for Yu Zizhen, it was something she absolutely could not tolerate.
This is because the person these small border countries wanted to marry was precisely the founding emperor of China, Yu Zizhen himself.
Although Yu Zizhen did not agree with the strange idea that people in today's society require women to be monogamous, she believed that it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines as long as he was capable. However, she did not think that just because she became an emperor, she should have three husbands and four concubines to show her imperial majesty.
Rather than building a harem that is doomed to be unstable, she would rather spend her life with a lover who is equally matched with her and loves her.
And to be a bit narcissistic, she is also very picky about men. In her opinion, not everyone in this world is qualified to have physical intimacy with her.
As for asking her to sacrifice her looks for the greater good, Yu Zizhen said that if she had to fight for so many years and finally had to sell her looks, she would rather let China be destroyed immediately.
Yu Zizhen, who had already made up his mind, received the envoys from the three border countries at the same time at a grand court meeting.
In addition to the regular personnel - the chief envoy, deputy envoy, assistant officers and guards, each of these three envoy teams also has one to three princes, princesses and the like from their own tribe.
The princes came to China with a clear purpose of marriage, but the princesses' intentions were somewhat ambiguous.
According to the information provided by the Ear-Reporting God Baby Voice System, the primary purpose of these princesses is to see if she can attract both men and women. If so, then they will belong to her.
Yu Zizhen's worldview exploded: ...
She immediately stated that she would not change her orientation just because she was in a high position and had great power.
The baby voice system was not surprised. Although it did not have the human emotional system, it could see that Yu Zizhen did not really marry Xiao Yuanjin because he was particularly capable and was the most qualified super laborer.
His appearance, personality, values, talents, and the sincerity with which he cared solely for Yu Zizhen, together made him a gentleman like jade who made Yu Zizhen's heart beat fast and even spared no time to pursue him passionately.
Some of Yu Zizhen's behaviors made it easy for the baby voice system to analyze that she actually loved Xiao Yuanjin very much.
Based on this love, it is not difficult to infer that Yu Zizhen will not choose any other man or woman.
So after Yu Zizhen couldn't wait to express her opinion, the baby voice system told her about the other uses of those princesses.
It told Yu Zizhen that if he had no interest in those princesses, they would choose a son-in-law for him from among the important officials of the dynasty or their direct descendants.
Whether these princes-in-law go back with them or live with them in China, they and their countries can use the in-laws' ties of marriage to openly send their own spies to travel on Chinese soil.
Even if their brothers could win the favor of Yu Zizhen, they could form an internal and external alliance with him, so that China would no longer have any secrets from them and their country.
In this way, it will become very easy for them to subvert China.
A group of people who are not strong but have strong ambitions have no idea that Yu Zizhen has a super plug-in called the baby voice system.
Naturally, they also didn't know that since they came to the capital, every time they closed the door to plot these things, the baby voice system would diligently help Yu Zizhen record, summarize and analyze the intelligence.
Thanks to the baby voice system, Yu Zizhen already knew their purpose before they actually appeared in front of him.
She even learned the true identities of some of their secret agents planted in China through the content of their conversations, which laid a good foundation for her to unravel the mystery and find all the spies they had planted earlier to monitor or arrest them.
Yu Zizhen was in a good mood because of this. When she met with the envoys from the three countries, she always had a smile on her face and listened patiently to their purpose of explanation.
The envoys from the three kingdoms were very well-behaved. They first saluted Yu Zizhen respectfully and congratulated her on behalf of their countries in a serious manner. Then they brought out their own princes and princesses to introduce them in detail, and tactfully expressed that their princes and princesses admired and adored Yu Zizhen, this heroine, and wanted to learn a thing or two from her up close.
Yu Zizhen did not show any impatience. She first asked the envoy to convey her gratitude to the kings of the three kingdoms, and then she praised the princes and princesses of the three kingdoms in a very pretentious and half-hearted manner.
Things like, "This little prince is tall and strong, and it's obvious that he's not picky about food and is easy to raise.", "This princess has a healthy complexion and abundant vitality, so she must be very strong.", "This princess has a slim figure and beautiful looks, so her parents must have been very good children."...
After praising her, Yu Zizhen said with regret, "Although you are all good children, and I am very happy that you admire me, I am the Emperor of China after all. I have to deal with important government affairs of China every day. It is really inconvenient for you to follow me closely."
