Chapter 475 Peace and Prosperity in Foreign Lands (Part 10)
Fortunately, Princess Xining had unique tastes. When she learned that her sister-in-law and mother wanted to hold a beauty pageant for her in Dayu, she immediately refused.
"There's no need to choose. Even if we had to choose, we should choose from among the soldiers of Dayu."
The ones you chose only have the looks, but they can't even withstand a single blow from me.
They're all like my younger brother, unable to even lift a knife. I don't need people like that.
If you absolutely have to choose, then keep it for yourselves!
Later, due to Emperor Xiao Wu's autocratic rule, the selection of candidates was abandoned.
Seeing the Crown Prince looking at him with a serious expression, Emperor Xiao Wu quickly laughed it off and let the matter drop.
Alright! Let them go then!
Sending them away is a good thing!
I'm also quite annoyed by those foreign countries sending women over.
It seemed as if they had nothing else to give besides the woman.
Also, since you're sending some, please send some that we in Chongqing think are good-looking too!
Look at the people being sent here in these waves.
With blond hair and green eyes, he looked quite fair-skinned, but when he stood there, he looked like a golden lion king!
Even I felt it was beneath my dignity to bestow it upon my ministers.
Perhaps these women are being used as spies.
"The Crown Princess did the right thing, it's good that she was sent away!" Emperor Xiao Wu said solemnly.
The crown prince then picked up his pen again.
Seeing that the Crown Prince had let the matter drop, Emperor Xiao Wu thought for a moment and decided to bring it up again.
"Your Highness! You have been participating in government affairs for more than ten years. You have been attending court with me since you were fifteen years old."
They have also become proficient in handling government affairs.
"How about you take on the extra work? I'll abdicate the throne to you," Emperor Xiao Wu said with a smile.
The crown prince still snorted.
“Father! I have said before that the Emperor of Dayu has never abdicated voluntarily.”
The admonitions of the founding emperor are still hanging in the Imperial Ancestral Temple!
"Are you going to go against the late Emperor Taizu's dying wish?" Emperor Taizu asked.
Emperor Xiao Wu...
Yes, the founding emperor of Dayu left behind instructions at the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
That means that the emperor of Dayu should prioritize the country, take the people as the foundation, and consider all living beings as his responsibility.
We must devote ourselves wholeheartedly to ensuring that the Great Yu is never again invaded by foreign tribes...
Simply put, be a good emperor of the Great Yu, and even if you die, die on the throne...
Emperor Xiao Wu was somewhat angry about this.
Doesn't this mean that as long as you're alive, you have to stay on the throne until you die?
He originally planned to be emperor for several decades, and then pass the throne to the crown prince when he had had enough.
Then, he took the Empress and, like his aunt, went sightseeing...
Now.......
Perhaps sensing that Emperor Xiao Wu was unhappy, the Crown Prince thought for a moment and decided to give Emperor Xiao Wu a way out.
"Does Father Emperor wish to make a southern tour or a northern tour?"
Your son will arrange it.
The weather is nice now, so we can set off within a month at most.
"Father has worked so hard for the Great Yu for so many years, it is only right that he goes out to see the people's conditions!" the Crown Prince said.
Emperor Xiao Wu also snorted.
"I will not go! With Chun Bu Wan here, I know everything that is happening in the world."
What's the point of a southern or northern tour? It's a complete waste of money.
The crown prince had nothing more to say.
He... didn't want to take over the throne so soon either.
Since being placed under Emperor Xiao Wu's wing and involved in government affairs, the Crown Prince has increasingly felt...
Being an emperor is no ordinary job...
The thought that he would one day sit on the throne for the rest of his life, just like his father, made the crown prince feel a little bored.
Luckily, I have a child now, so I should start training him to participate in politics as soon as possible!
When I'm old, I'll take the Crown Princess, in a carriage, with a few other people, and slowly wander through the mountains and rivers of Da Yu...
"Your Highness, what are the two tribes from the Northern Hu saying now? Why did they suddenly send people here? Is there something they're planning?" Emperor Xiao Wu suddenly interrupted the Crown Prince's thoughts.
The prince, regaining his senses in time, quickly put down his pen.
"The news coming from the border city is that the Northern Hu have been fighting for so many years and have had enough."
They wanted to ask the people of Dayu to act as a go-between for the two tribes, so that they could both save face.
They said they didn't want to fight anymore; now they just wanted to herd sheep and horses.
Emperor Xiao Wu gave a cold laugh.
"Now you want to stop playing? Finally snapped out of it?"
Sure! Let them graze their sheep properly! They can sell the sheep they raise in Chongqing.
The price of mutton has just increased in the last two years.
Remember to inform the Weiyuan Army to keep a close eye on the condition of the Northern Hu people.
Any organized armed force should be eliminated immediately!
Since they've come to me for help, I must provide them with a stable environment to graze their sheep!
The prince carefully wrote it down.
"What do they say from the southwest? They border us, so why are they sending congratulatory gifts?" Emperor Xiaowu asked again.
"Isn't it just that they want Da Yu to step in and resolve their border conflict with another country?"
Father, I think it's feasible.
The envoy said that this area could be used as a garrison area for the Great Yu. The Crown Prince promptly produced a map.
Emperor Xiao Wu narrowed his eyes.
"There's something profitable here? Otherwise you wouldn't be interested!"
