To be honest, Liu Qi really hadn't thought about it.
Ambition does not count. If you want to say that the only idea at the moment is to secure the position of the prince and ensure that one day he can successfully ascend to the throne.
As for making the people of Daqing rich in food and clothing, this can only be regarded as an ideal in the bottom of my heart.
Perhaps at this moment, others may say that what labor and management want is this world! He is the king of all peoples, or he wants to conquer the whole world or something.
But after thinking about it, Liu Qi told the truth.
"All I can think of now is to make my country prosperous and strong, that's all."
Hearing this, a ray of light suddenly appeared in Lu Liang's originally calm eyes.
"As the saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Unlike other kings, His Highness does not place his hope in the illusory future, but focuses on the present. I am deeply impressed by this!"
After a long silence, Liu Qi chuckled.
This was not the kind of compliment he wanted to hear.
"I have already answered what you want to ask. Even so, sir, do you have anything to say?"
Lu Liang chuckled lightly.
"Haha, of course Xiaomin does!"
Liu Qi's heart trembled slightly, and there was some expectation in his eyes.
"Please sir, please give me some advice."
Immediately, he extended his hand very politely and the two sat down to talk.
Since I'm asking for advice, naturally I can't continue to show off.
Liu Qi thought that always carrying the prince's airs would only make people think that he was a fool who knew how to pretend to be 13.
Lu Liang smiled and waved his sleeves like a master.
In Liu Qi's resemblance, the next step is probably to be like Wu Hou, scolding Fang Qiu and giving guidance to the country.
"The common people believe that the Qing Kingdom should follow the path of kings."
Kingly way? It sounds awesome.
Liu Qi suddenly became interested and leaned forward slightly.
"What is the road of kingship?"
Lu Liang then spoke eloquently.
"I believe that the Qing State should learn from the Song State, implement benevolent policies, stop sword fighting, and make good relations with other countries, either by paying tribute or offering people and treasures."
"With the foundation accumulated by Qingguo, I can guarantee that within a few decades, Qingguo will become the most prosperous and powerful country among the princes."
"At that time, the Qing Kingdom will be proud of all the heroes. In more than a hundred years, no other country will dare to have any thoughts. Your Highness can also become a hero of a generation and be famous throughout the ages. This is the royal way."
But after hearing this, Liu Qi felt angry in his heart and almost couldn't help but yell at him directly.
His remarks sounded like that.
But in fact, there is almost no difference between the political views of the same party as Yang Wenyuan.
It sounds nice to be on good terms with other countries. To put it bluntly, it means temporarily forbearing. The most annoying thing is that you have to pay tribute, treasures and people. When that time comes, will you still have to offer land?
He also said that Qingguo has a rich heritage, accumulated over so many years, just to be a grandson?
Although what he said is not unreasonable, if this is the case, Qingguo will inevitably become more and more prosperous and powerful.
But this is a long process. In a few decades, I will be old as hell. Even if I am lucky enough to see the country become prosperous and powerful, I will still be a useless master.
And this is definitely what Liu Qi wants, let alone what the people of Qing Kingdom want to see.
How can wealth and strength gained through humiliation be called true wealth and strength?
Kingly way, bullshit!
Liu Qi said nothing, sneered, looked at Lu Liang disdainfully, and walked away immediately.
In his mind, Lu Liang was not an expert, he was just a sanctimonious businessman with some courage.
Beneath the appearance of great talent, there is actually a corrupt heart.
Liu Qi was very disappointed. He thought Lu Liang would become a capable minister under him, but he was mistaken after all.
As soon as he returned to his house, he met Qin Wei who had returned from Nanying.
"You're back? What did General Bai say?"
It could be felt that the prince seemed a little unhappy.
"Your Highness, let's go inside and talk."
When he arrived at the house, Liu Qi was still not in high spirits, waiting for Lieutenant Qin's report.
"Your Highness, after arriving at the South Camp, I demonstrated the sleeve arrow to Bai Qi and explained to him how to operate it. Finally, I asked him if it could be used by the troops..."
"What did he say?"
"General Bai Qi responded this way. If such artifacts are used by soldiers, they will definitely greatly improve the soldiers' combat capabilities. It is an excellent thing."
Speaking of this, Liu Qi's chest eased a little, and he finally felt a little more comfortable.
"However, Bai Qi also said that although this weapon has advantages, at present, it has even more disadvantages!"
Liu Xin's heart suddenly sank.
"What's the disadvantage?"
"First, can it be ensured that the method of this weapon will not be spread to outsiders, and whether it can be made easily."
"If the two armies are fighting, it can easily be picked up by the enemy. If it is imitated and distributed to one's own army, it will become a powerful weapon against our country."
Liu Qi took a deep breath.
"You don't need to worry too much about this. Although I asked the blacksmith to make it, the parts were made in many separate places. I didn't tell him about some of the hidden parts. He said that he brought the things back and assembled them himself."
Qin Wei nodded, with some worry in his eyes.
"Your Highness, a weapon can certainly be like this. If it is mass-produced in a foundry, wouldn't every piece be assembled by you?"
"Also, things are researched. From the perspective of other countries, what if they are imitated?"
Liu Qi dragged his chin with his hands and thought for a while.
"Tell me first, what is the second disadvantage he mentioned?"
"Your Highness, although this object is a weapon, it is actually a hidden weapon. It is more convenient than any hidden weapon, and its damage capability is even better."
"If someone sneaks into the palace with such a hidden weapon, it will become a big threat to the royal family members and the ministers of the court."
"Fortunately, the palace has strict censorship, so the chance of this kind of thing happening is still very small."
"But if His Majesty goes on a patrol, or if you go on a tour, and these artifacts fall to the people and get into the hands of civilians, it will be difficult to prevent them."
Liu Qi nodded while listening to Qin Wei's story.
"anything else?"
Qin Wei shook his head.
"Nothing else."
"Bai Qi said that if His Highness can solve these two shortcomings, this thing can be made."
Damn it, grandma, I finally came up with a good thing, but I still have so many troubles.
Why is everything going wrong today?
Seeing Liu Qi's frown, Qin Wei couldn't help but ask.
"Your Highness, are you worried about anything?"
Liu Qi chuckled and told him what happened when he met Lu Liang today.
"Okay, let me think about the Xiujian matter again. If nothing happens, you can go back and rest."
But Qin Wei did not leave.
"Your Highness, I thought to myself, since Lu Liang is so confident, he must not be an incompetent person."
"If he had the same idea as the minister, there would be no need to tell you. Is it possible that he did it on purpose?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Qi's frown gradually relaxed.
Even his eyes began to become clearer.
