The edict was placed on the desk of Taishu Pavilion.
Wen Yongxing came closer, holding the gold-embroidered edict in his hand, and read it over and over again.
"If we follow His Highness's design, how long can this building be in operation?"
Surprisingly, he didn't get angry, but he asked Zhong Lilin this question.
Zhong Lilin frowned: "According to the rough calculation of students, the Anhai Gold will be used up within half a year after it is completed."
Wen Yongxing nodded silently, and then asked: "In your opinion, should Taishu Pavilion continue to build the statue?"
Zhong Lilin didn't speak, but he didn't nod or shake his head either.
"now it's right."
Wen Yongxing showed his hand and wrote an edict: "What's the use of building a hundred and eighty statues? The rain in the sky is not as good as the eaves of a tile roof, and the sunshine is not as good as the shady trees. They are just a piece of rotten stone."
After listening to his words, Zhong Lilin was stunned: "Teacher, what your Highness is planning is that the Yihong Building will fail immediately after opening, leaving an empty building. How can it be of any use?"
He said it himself and figured it out.
"It will definitely be defeated. The place where we stay is just a place for merchants and pawns to stay. How many people can there be in total? How can we support Yihong Tower?"
Wen Yongxing held his white beard and shook his head.
The world is declining and ethics are stable. This is certainly important, but now there are big powers oppressing Simeng outside and there are power struggles inside, and the people's livelihood is just about getting by.
Building a civilized society is easier said than done!
To take a step back, in name, this is not a spring kiln, but an official restaurant.
"Yes, but even buying food to help the people is still good!"
Zhong Lilin's mind was already a little confused. Wen Yongxing sighed: "Your Highness, he must not dare."
If you want to help the people and round things off, you want the people's support, but you want to oppose them!
It is always safer to build these buildings, then close them down and list them, and then be "forced" to appropriate them when they are needed.
That Plague Lord, he hadn't even lost his brain yet, could he still come up with this arrangement?
"Submit it to Master Tantai. If it is correct, you and I will announce the decree tomorrow."
Wen Yongxing spoke without hesitation, and even had a hint of forbearing excitement.
Han Dongwen didn't know that his decision could be interpreted this way.
He was originally prepared to be misunderstood. After all, he was the only one in the world who knew that there would be strangers coming to the world in the future. Instead of explaining, it would be more convenient to stick to his own image.
Yihonglou!
In the new era, player bonfires no longer need to stay in private houses or find remote inns. They can be built in places where players like to go most and have the best quest lines!
——Of course, he has never been to Simeng, so he can only make a rough guess based on the terrain. Wild forests with wild beasts around, swamps with legendary monsters, and mountain streams with strange climates are all destinations.
When strangers come, this country will be in chaos.
Yihonglou's proposal was quickly placed on Tantaifu's table. He only glanced at it a few times before snorting from his nose and nodding immediately.
"Ming'er, what do you think?"
Tantai Ming was standing next to his father, looking at a newly acquired folding fan casually in his hand.
He still had that calm expression and said calmly: "Your Highness must have come up with the idea of Yihong Tower?"
"Humph, who else could it be besides him?"
"Then the two adults from Taishu Pavilion didn't dissuade him?"
The two main ribs of the folding fan are made of excellent amber wood, and the carvers are carving pictures of pines and cypresses flying eagles, and their craftsmanship is quite meticulous.
"I must have tried to persuade him, but it must have been of no use."
Tantaifu waved his hand: "Next, we, father and son, just have to watch what's going on at the Department of Justice, and be careful not to make any mistakes!"
Although his father said this, Tantai Ming just nodded thoughtfully, still playing with his fan and said: "Dad, although Wen Yongxing is old, his mind may not be confused. Please listen to me. Even if His Highness is confused, don’t overthink him.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the folding fan in his hand was opened with a snap.
On the fan page, there are only four words inscribed——
Pure and turbid
The next day, early morning.
This is destined to be a morning full of gunpowder.
It was on this morning that Tantai Fu arranged for the cutting off of An Haijin to be announced.
Among them, Han Dongwen reluctantly and flexibly allocated the Anhai gold, replacing the unnecessary expense of building a statue with the seemingly absurd order of building the Yihong Building.
If Han Dongwen decides to make a grand appearance one day and return to court in the long-lost hall——
It would be impossible for him to die today.
Just kidding, if we don’t protect the National Law Department this morning, we are going to quarrel with the National Military Department. I also got involved in the middle. Will I show up today and be used as cannon fodder?
Today he resolutely chose to stay in bed, brush the Xuanji plate, and wait for things to develop.
Yingchun Palace, in the maid's room.
This is a small single room - not big, but it is carefully decorated. The mahogany tables and chairs are simple and concise, not too monotonous. There is a small jade vase on the table, which can be used as a vase. With a few frangipani flowers inserted, it looks quite cute.
Xiao Hongdou had already gotten up. His Highness gave her leave today, but she couldn't figure out what to do.
"Knock knock"
A knock on the door woke her up from her thoughts, and Xiao Hongdou quickly stood up and opened the door.
"Sister Sisi? Why are you here?"
It was Chi Hanqing's personal maid Lu Sisi who came. She curiously looked into the room and whispered: "Little Hongdou, can I come in?"
Even the personal maids must always take turns to serve His Highness - this is Han Dongwen's rule, and Lu Sisi can't escape it.
The only exception was that Concubine Yin Jiang Keyin's personal maid did not need to serve him in Lord Wen's bedroom. Han Dongwen asked Xiao Hongdou why, but found that Lord Wen himself agreed to Jiang Keyin.
If you become a concubine, then the servants will also get some glory. This is how it should be.
But for some reason, Lu Sisi still had to change shifts. She could only think that it was because Concubine Chi was not favored enough.
"Sister, come in quickly."
Xiao Hongdou quickly turned sideways and let Lu Sisi into the room. She was already young, and she entered the palace later than Sisi, so she was naturally a legitimate junior.
Sisi entered the room and motioned to Xiao Hongdou to close the door, and mysteriously pulled her over to sit on the bed: "Xiao Hongdou, I heard that His Highness wanted you for three days in a row?"
"ah?"
Xiao Hongdou was a little confused. She nodded at first, but suddenly her face turned red: "No, no! What do you mean you want me for three days..."
"Keep your voice down!"
Sisi pinched her, looked at the closed door nervously, breathed a sigh of relief, took out a small box from her arms and opened it. What lay inside was the one Chi Hanqing asked her to send. White beads.
"You accompany... well, you must have suffered a lot in serving His Highness. This is what Concubine Chi asked me to give you."
Little Hongdou looked at the small pearl-like ball and blinked: "Concubine Chi...?"
Sisi closed the box with a snap and stuffed it into Xiao Hongdou's hand: "Just crush it and soak it in water and take it. Your body must replenish it. It will be too late to replenish it when you feel uncomfortable."
Seeing that Xiao Hongdou was still hesitant, she raised her hand and gently held Xiao Hongdou's face: "Even if you don't believe me, sister, Concubine Chi's family is filled with famous doctors who have been here for hundreds of years. You have to believe it!"
When the words came to this point, Xiaohongdou pursed her lips and had no choice but to take the small box: "Then, please ask sister to thank Concubine Chi for me."
