Chapter 1597

Spring has arrived, the grass is growing and the orioles are flying, and the ice and snow are melting.

It’s the season of revival again.

The earth is rejuvenated.

Life appears again.

This winter has been very difficult for many countries.

Some countries in the southern part of the Yanhuang Continent experienced floods and droughts.

There were also rebellions.

The weather in the south is hotter, while the cold weather in the north is much better.

Some rebel armies even rebelled.

Lu Yan has been waiting for the ice and snow to melt and the weather to warm up.

Throughout the winter, Lu Yan has been consolidating his strength and arranging various major places.

In order to swallow up the land of the original Song Dynasty.

Lu Yan personally took action and once again led the expedition in person.

Not only that, Lu Yan also sent Jiang Ziya to accompany him.

Let Jiang Ziya give him advice and command everyone.

Lu Yan commanded an army of 100,000 and went to the border in person.

Suddenly, smoke began to fill the air.

On the other side, although Xie Ai, Pan Mei and others have united, they are at odds with each other.

Especially Xie Ai, who had just secured his throne and actually held a beauty pageant.

Xie Ai also heard that Lu Yan held a beauty contest and felt envious.

Therefore, Xie Ai also planned to hold a beauty pageant in China.

After all, Xie Ai is now a king no matter what.

Three people in the harem are too monotonous.

No, I have to enrich my harem.

So Xie Ai decided to hold a beauty pageant across the country.

But before it even started, someone poured cold water on me.

This person is Xie Ai's good friend-Zeng Gong.

After Zeng Gong knew that Xie Ai was going to do a beauty pageant, he entered the palace and urged Xie Ai.

He didn't want Xie Ai to be confused by the desire in front of him.

Zeng Gong personally went to Yunwang Palace to persuade Xie Ai.

Zeng Gong had a good personal relationship with Xie Ai before he became emperor.

So Zeng Gong entered the palace without much obstruction.

""Your Majesty - Zeng Gong pays homage to the Emperor." Zeng Gong came to Xie Ai and paid homage.

"Zeng Gong, you are not at home, what are you doing here?" Xie Ai looked at Zeng Gong in front of him, very curious

"Reporting back to the emperor, I have something to report. I hope the emperor will not indulge in wine and sex. If the emperor is righteous, all the people will be happy and will not follow orders. There are no less than ten beauties in Emperor Kuang's harem, as well as concubines and concubines. Today, I want to choose a beautiful woman in the sky, but I am afraid of losing popularity. I heard:"If you enjoy the people's happiness, the people will also enjoy their happiness; if you worry about the people's worries, the people will also worry about their worries.""At this time, there are frequent floods and droughts. It's because of women's lust. In fact, the emperor doesn't want it."

Xie Ai's face turned dark when he heard Zeng Gong's words.

Zeng Gong also came to persuade him?

He just wanted to choose a beautiful woman, that's all Is it difficult?

I have the world, so why can’t I choose a beauty?

Why can Lu Yan do it but I can’t?

How can I be worse than Lu Yan?

Xie Ai is so angry in his heart, but he can’t say anything yet.

Zeng Gong and him They had an irreversible friendship.

He had already known Zeng Gong before he became a general.

At that time, Xie Ai's family was somewhat poor, but Zeng Gong was different. Zeng Gong's family conditions were much better than his own.

He often helped himself.

The relationship between them had been inherited a long time ago.

Although Zeng Gong did not serve as an official at first, but later after Xie Ai became emperor, he was directly invited by Xie Ai to handle government affairs for Xie Ai.

He was one of the six officials under Xie Ai.

Zeng Gong didn't know what Xie Ai was thinking.

He still said: Therefore, Yao and Shun lived happily with the people, transformed the world with benevolence, and did not engage in war or killing. The stars shine in the sky, the nectar falls, the phoenix stops in the courtyard, the grass grows in the wild; the people are prosperous, the pedestrians give way, the dogs do not bark, it rains at night and is clear during the day, and the rice grows double ears; these are signs of the prosperity of the Tao.

Today If the emperor takes the pleasures of the moment, his eyes will be dazzled by many colors, his ears will listen to obscene sounds, he will indulge in wine and sex, wander in the gardens, and hunt in the mountains and forests. This is a sign of unethical ruin.

As the emperor's ministers, Weichen is ranked in the imperial court, and the six departments are I have no choice but to enlighten you, Your Majesty.

I wish your Majesty to advance the virtuous and retreat from the unfaithful, practice benevolence and righteousness, and understand morality, then harmony will permeate the world, and the people will naturally be rich and wealthy, the world will be peaceful, and the world will be harmonious and harmonious, and you will share endless blessings with the people.

The emperor should cultivate his virtues, love his people, cherish his finances, and respect his envoys. Although Yao and Shun were not like this, why bother to choose servants from district to district and then be happy? I am ignorant and do not know taboos. I hope you will tolerate it."

Thank you. Ai listened to Zeng Gong's words and didn't know what to say.

Zeng Gong is not the first, nor the last.

Was he really wrong?

Xie Ai sighed helplessly,"Your words are very kind, so I will be exempted from doing it."

Zeng Gong couldn't help but nodded when he saw Xie Ai following his advice.

"In this case, I will resign first." Zeng Gong was extremely satisfied.

The relationship between himself and Xie Ai was still quite mellow.

Others' advice was unsuccessful, but his own advice was successful, which means that his status is still good.

""Yes." Xie Ai waved his hand.

After Zeng Gong went out, Xie Ai sighed again.

"ah······"Xie Ai looked up to the sky and sighed, full of sadness.

The attendant next to Xie Ai, looking at Xie Ai's unwilling expression, felt something in his heart.
