Chapter 516: DPRK-China Dispute
After Yuan Qingling settled the accounts, he rented two houses first. At the same time, he allocated a piece of the fiefdom of the King of Chu's Mansion to build a school building, and both sides carried out at the same time.
The two houses rented are both adjacent, so it is convenient. After Tang Yang finished the procedures, Yuan Qingling had to prepare for other skills, which was the most difficult one, that was to find a teacher.
To teach, it is naturally to teach traditional Chinese medicine. As Yu Wenhao said before, most doctors who have started their own clinics, "patients come like clouds, and make money every day." If Yuan Qingling wants to hire them, he will have a lot of money.
However, the second thing is to ask them to come and train the doctors of the Huimin Department to compete with them for business, they are definitely unwilling to do so, so this is a very difficult situation.
Moreover, if you want to teach teaching, you must need a respected and skilled doctor.
Now she only has one borrowed doctor on hand, that is Doctor Cao, but if she uses him, it can be considered as a public utility for private use.
This matter is enough for Yuan Qingling to worry, and I want to discuss it with Yu Wenhao, but this man has been very busy recently. General Chen is coming to promote an alliance between the two countries. However, the ministers of the conservative faction are definitely unwilling to do so. If the alliance between the two countries will not directly offend the Xianbei and Beimo? They are all busy making trouble.
The celebration was about to be held. After this celebration was held, it was a declaration of the six kingdoms and the prince of Northern Tang was established.
Regarding this celebration, Emperor Mingyuan had already arranged defenses and prepared for it, so there was no trouble during the celebration. It was very decent and pleasant.
After the celebration, Prince Yuwenhao formally proposed to open trade with the Great Zhou countries, pass goods by land and water, and use silver and gold as the currency for traffic.
Many ministers in the court agreed with this proposal, and Emperor Yuan of Ming also naturally agreed with it. After all, the Northern Tang Dynasty now needs to vigorously develop the economy. If it can communicate goods with the Great Zhou, it can greatly promote the prosperity of commerce and introduce the Great Zhou silk and textile technology.
But there is a prerequisite for economic mutual communication, that is, the two countries must sign an alliance and watch over each other.
General Di Weiming stood up to oppose it, and his reasons for opposition were reasonable. Now the Xianbei and the Northern Tang Dynasty have a ceasefire, and the Xianbei and the Northern Mo have not continued to disturb the borders of the Northern Tang Dynasty. They just targeted the Great Zhou Dynasty. The Northern Tang should be out of the matter and vigorously developed its national strength.
After saying that, he said to Yuwen Hao sternly: "Your Highness's proposal is obviously lacking in consideration. It will put our Northern Tang in a dangerous place. Your Highness is also a military general. You should know that the consequences of the military alliance may cause war. War means the people are displaced and the land is eroded. I hope the prince will stop this idea quickly, so as not to trap our Northern Tang in a dangerous place. Also, the old minister really doubts who instigated the prince? He actually put forward such dangerous ideas to mislead the prince. If the prince insists on his own, it is not the blessing of my Northern Tang, but the beginning of the disaster of my Northern Tang!"
Many people were frightened by what they said.
However, Shoufu Chu refuted his opinion.
He made a sound in the hall, "The ambition of the Beimo and Xianbei wolf men have long been eyeing the Northern Tang Dynasty. It was just that the Northern Tang Dynasty's fierce horses and soldiers were brave enough to temporarily force them back, but it is hard to guarantee that they will not make a comeback.
Now the Great Zhou has developed weapons and chariots. If the two countries have joined forces, the Great Zhou can help the Northern Tang improve weapons and equipment, which can strengthen the military defense of the Northern Tang and coordinate the development of the economy. This has long-term benefits for the Northern Tang. The prince has insightful opinions, political views are beneficial to the people, and he also considers the long-term for the Northern Tang and is able to take on a great task. General Di exaggerated. Could it be that the Northern Tang will not provoke the Northern Mo and Xianbei, and after they erode the Great Zhou, they will let the Northern Tang go? Or will the city be ceded to calm the war at that time?"
The Northern Tang once defeated Beimo, and 30,000 soldiers were besieged. Finally, General Di Weiming was sent to negotiate. It was because he ceded a city, Beimo, and was willing to retreat.
This has always been a shame for the Northern Tang Dynasty, and it happened when the Supreme Emperor was in power. It has always been a mental illness of the Supreme Emperor. The Supreme Emperor once said that if Luocheng cannot be retrieved, he will not die with peace of mind.
After the incident, many people believed that they should not compromise easily at that time, but Di Weiming had many generals at that time and had a great say in the court. They kept claiming that 30,000 soldiers were retiring freely, which was the credit of General Di. The court awkwardly remembered Di Weiming's credit.
But Di Weiming has always been very shameful about this matter. Now that Chu Guanfu mentioned it in the palace, he even slapped him in the face. For a moment, his face turned into a pig's liver, and anger burst out in his eyes. "Since Master, what do you mean is that I did something wrong back then? Is the lives of 30,000 soldiers not as good as a city? Isn't your statement so cold the hearts of soldiers?"
Chu Shoufu said coldly: "I have only heard that soldiers swear to protect the city to the death, but never heard of using the city to protect the soldiers. The forced one day was actually a shame. Beimo is the enemy that plunders our territory. Now we have promoted the alliance with the Great Zhou, hoping that one day we can strengthen our troops and the country will no longer be bullied by Beimo."
Di Weiming was angry and embarrassed, "Is the chief minister settled the score now? Do you know what the generals are most afraid of? What they are afraid of is that they are brave enough to kill the enemy in front of the formation, but there will always be civil servants behind the scenes to insult and frame them."
When Mr. Xiaoyao heard this, he suddenly became angry and shouted, "When Master Chu and I were accompanying the Supreme Emperor to fight, you kid were wearing open-crotch pants. You dared to gain some morale after winning several battles and gaining some morale in the army. If you really want to go out and fight, you kid is not the opponent of me and the Chief Supervisor."
Di Weiming then remembered that Chu Shoufu did accompany the Supreme Emperor to the war, and then returned to the court to become an official, which made many people who didn't know that he thought he was a civil servant.
He did not dare to refute Mr. Xiaoyao because this old boy had a very irritable temper and did not distinguish between occasions when he spoke.
And if we say that the status and reputation in the military can compete with him now, the only one who can offend him is the one who is not good at this time.
Thinking of this, he softened, but maintained his opinion. "Your Majesty, I just think that there is no need for us to get involved in the chaos of the Great Zhou and the Northern Mo. Moreover, the Northern Tang and the Great Zhou have always had trade. Even if we do not form an alliance, I believe it will not affect our current stability. I believe that the confrontation between the Great Zhou and the Northern Mo Xianbei is beneficial to our Northern Tang. We keep our strength and accumulate military strength secretly. If the enemy really comes, we can deal with it."
Yu Wenhao stepped out and said: "Father, for the century-long plan of the Northern Tang Dynasty, I believe that I should form an alliance with the Great Zhou, on the one hand, learn their new weapons and consolidate their military defense, and on the other hand, work closely with them to achieve prosperity between the two countries."
