Farewell to Shangguan Jie, Zhang Yue walked into the back hall of the Greenhouse Hall with full questions.

He even almost hit the threshold.

"What's wrong with the Shizhong?" Guo Rang was standing at the door. He hurriedly supported Zhang Yue and asked, "Are you worried?"

"No..." Zhang Yue smiled and replied, "I just heard that the Korean ginseng has been sent to the palace. I am thinking about how to make the ginseng soup for His Majesty..."

It has been almost two months since the emperor ordered the four counties of North Korea to pay tribute to ginseng.

Although land transportation from North Korea to Chang'an is indeed difficult to walk.

In this era, to come from North Korea to the Central Plains, we need to walk through the Liaodong Corridor and cross a swamp area.

But sea transportation is very convenient.

At this time, the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea were smooth, and even the Tsushima Strait was calm.

The wild people outside the four counties of Korea could not live a long life, so they took a small sampan to the Uma Island to find the Uma people who were on the Uma Island at this time to fight the autumn wind. This is common.

The love, hate, and love between Bangwu even began as early as the Joseon era.

However, during this period and for a long time to come, it has been a bastard to visit the relatives of the Japanese slaves who are powerless.

For the Han Dynasty, it has become a habit to transport personnel and supplies through maritime routes from the western Liaoning Peninsula to Qinhuangdao.

A month and a half ago, Sang Hongyang ordered the official ship fleet on the coast of Qilu to set sail, and the advance fleet that went north to fish in the waters around the Korean Peninsula was the North Korean coast that was heading to the North Korean coast through this route.

But now, the development efforts of the Korean Peninsula are very small, so there are almost no decent ports.

The fleet could only moor to Liaoxi County first, and then go to North Korea's coastal fishing until next spring.

but……

Zhang Yue heard Sang Jun say that now, the fleet heading north is no longer happy.

Because, they found a super fish school along the Liaoxi Bay coast in western Liaoning that they had not seen in Qilu for countless years.

According to the officials who led the fleet to the north and the officials who went with the ship, there were so many fish on the western coast of Liao that they could catch dozens or hundreds of fish by just a splash of one net, and each one was big and fat.

More importantly, these big fish are all stupid, surrounded by the estuary of several rivers in western Liaoning, refusing to leave.

The only problem is that the local area is colder, and winter is coming soon, and the sea water may freeze.

Therefore, these officials asked the Grand Secretary to send them a large amount of winter supplies and fish drying craftsmen before the winter came, and the servants went over.

They planned not to leave in Liaoxi County.

As for North Korea?

Let’s talk about it when they have finished catching fish from western Liaoning!

After hearing this news, the huge official ship fleet in Qilu was immediately excited and wanted to go north.

There is no way, 30% of the profits obtained from fishing in the official boats and yamen can be distributed as a benefit.

Moreover, their promotion speed and fishing volume are directly linked.

In other words, whoever catches more fish will earn more and rise faster.

This kind of thing that can make money, be promoted, and even make girls. Since ancient times, the people of the Xia Dynasty have been the most active!

After Shang Jun’s reform, he was always a weak chicken in the eyes of the Eastern countries. The Qin soldiers who fought against the five scumbags turned into a tiger and wolf army in the blink of an eye. This is a proof.

Therefore, the ginseng mined from North Korea was delivered to Chang'an in just one month after being sent by sea.

The speed is no less than that of the bird's nest in Zhuya County.

Guo Rang listened to Zhang Yue's words and immediately said, "The Secretariat is really a loyal minister!"

Zhang Yue smiled slightly and said, "I'll let Guo Lingli spread it to me..."

"The minister is so serious..." Guo Rang smiled and said, "I will go and spread it now..."

"Thank you!"

Not long after, Guo Rang smiled and said to Zhang Yue: "Your Majesty, please invite me!"

Zhang Yue hurriedly followed Guo Rang and went to the greenhouse interior hall where the emperor worked through the palace of the greenhouse hall.

"I asked Your Majesty for your safety..." Zhang Yue walked in and immediately bowed to the emperor who was watching the memorial in front of the case: "My emperor will live forever!"

"Zhang Qing is here..." The emperor seemed to be still obsessed with the memorials, and just glanced at it and said, "Give me a seat..."

He picked up the memorial in his hand, looked at it, and asked Zhang Yue: "What's the matter with you coming to the palace to see me at night?"

"I am frightened. I heard that Korean ginseng has been given to Chang'an, so I dare not delay. I came to the palace at night to make soup for Your Majesty..." Zhang Yuegong reported: "In addition, I have a private matter and want to report it to Your Majesty..."

"I am so fond of the son-in-law, Duke Jin, and I am not despicable to be a member of my clan, and I am flattered and dare not refuse. I accept the kindness of Duke Jin, but as a minister of the Majesty, I dare not have any personal intentions, so I report to Your Majesty specifically!"

When the emperor heard this, he laughed: "You are so loyal to me!"

"I don't need to tell me about such small things in the future..."

Zhang Yue listened, but said, "I am so frightened by Your Majesty's kindness and I am already afraid to hide my own personal feelings. Besides, the poem says: I have never explained it to you in my life. I will serve one person. I will not forget the instructions of the previous king!"

When the emperor heard this, he became even happier.

This is what he is most satisfied with Zhang Yue.

Regardless of the big or small transactions, they will be reported.

In the past, whenever I made a decision or the next order, I would send someone to send a copy to him.

What made him most happy was that every ten days, Xinfeng would send him a report on Zhang Yue’s quality day in Xinfeng.

During the day of quality, not only did the past ten days list in detail what the Shizhong official saw and heard in Xinfeng.

The emperor had doubts. He asked Wang Mang to send someone to verify Zhang Yue's itinerary, remarks and policies. As a result, Wang Mang's report was completely consistent with the quality and daily report.

Now, this Shizhong official even wants to report to someone else to send a girl.

This is not a loyal minister, who else is a loyal minister?

Anyway, the emperor has been in power for more than 40 years and has seen countless kinds of people. On the surface, he is loyal to him, but in fact he is behind his back, he is poaching the country's back and giving himself a full advantage.

This is the only official in charge of the Shizhong, who is really loyal!

have a look!

The ginseng from North Korea was transported to Chang'an less than two days later. As soon as he heard about it, he came to the palace overnight.

I'm afraid even Changping Hou Weiqing could not be so respectful and loyal!

Since he is a loyal minister, the emperor will not avoid Zhang Yue in many things.

He held the memorial in his hand and said to Zhang Yue: "Don't rush to make ginseng soup for me, let's take a look at this..."

Zhang Yue respectfully stepped forward, took the memorial, opened it and found that the person who wrote the letter was related to him.

It was his former teacher, Yuan Chang, who was the former teacher of Jian, the prefect of the county, Huang Ba.

The content of the memorial is also quite straightforward.

King Yelang and King Dian expressed their intention to enter Chang'an through the county through the key.

Moreover, this time is different from the other two visits to North Korea.

King Yelang and King Dian both brought the household registration album of their palace and planned to present it to the court.

In fact, the implication is that the emperor’s father. Please accept our humble loyalty and let us become Han people too!

At the end of the memorial, Huang Ba appended the request for the memorial of King Dian and King Yelang.

The writing is really literary. It seems that King Dian and King Yelang both invited Confucian scholars to polish it.

Zhang Yue read all the memorials and almost understood them in his heart.

He looked at the emperor and asked, "What does your majesty mean?"

"What I mean is naturally to approve it!" The emperor lowered his head and said, "It's just that the government and the public may not agree!"

King Yelang, King Dian, King Jue, King Zuo, King Qilan and other kings in the southwest region have wanted to be affiliated with the Han Dynasty several times, whether true or false.

However, the Han officials and scholars and officials were too lazy to care about their authenticity?

They only have one attitude to reject such things!

The barbarians from there also want to climb up to the sky? They don’t urinate in the mirror?

Even the Gongyang School does not agree with wanton expansion. Even if the barbarians take the initiative to support themselves, many people are worried that it will increase the burden on the people.

After all, to accept a new territory, officials must be sent to organize development.

We need to mobilize resources and organize immigration!

What’s even more terrifying is that the court may throw a group of great scholars over and educate the barbarians!

The scholars and officials just thought about this and felt creepy.

Especially the scholars and officials of the Guliang School, even the poor people in their villages were too lazy to care about their lives and death.

Let them leave the prosperous Central Plains, travel through mountains and rivers to the remote and backward Yidi Mountains, and teach those savages poetry, books, rituals and music?

Dream, this is!
