Chapter 369 I Want to Go to Loulan
But there was no way out now. Since Daqian had cancelled the purchase of black slaves, they did not dare to cause trouble and could only swallow their anger.
Not only the slave traders, but also the European countries were extremely shocked and found it unbelievable.
"This Emperor Daqian is crazy. Not only did he cancel the acquisition of black slaves, he also gave up the existing black slaves. What is he trying to do?"
"Yes! Such a huge amount of black slave resources is wasted, what a waste!"
"How could America, which is so vast, be developed without slaves?"
"Humph! This Daqian Emperor is a tyrant. This is a foolish move."
For a time, all countries believed that Ning Quan had lost his mind.
Ning Quan certainly knew what other countries thought of him, but he didn't care.
The world needs to change after all.
.........
Three days later.
Ning Quan took Zhou Yu and Du Shi to Annan, Haiphong City in a flying car.
Li Junchen received the news in advance and rushed from Thang Long City to greet him.
"I greet Your Majesty and General Zhou." Li Junchen knelt down excitedly and saluted.
"Father-in-law, please don't be polite."
Ning Quan smiled and helped him up and said
"Your Majesty, please!"
"Yeah." Ning Quan nodded.
Li Junchen led the way, and everyone arrived at the Haifang City County Magistrate's Mansion.
"I'm here today for two main reasons: one is the handover, and the other is to check on the army's preparations."
"After the combined fleet is destroyed, the entire Indochina Peninsula will no longer be threatened. According to the previous agreement, my father-in-law will take over the entire Indochina Peninsula."
Ning Quan asked after taking a sip of tea.
"Yes, I obey your order."
Upon hearing this, Li Junchen responded respectfully.
"Well, since my father-in-law is in charge of Indochina, Prime Minister Zhangsun and General Li Yuanba of Pyu Kingdom can free up their hands."
"It just so happens that the entire Nanyang region will be handed over to Lord Changsun in the future, and General Li Yuanba will be temporarily transferred to serve under General Zhou Yu and be responsible for conquering Nanyang."
"The minister obeys the order."
Li Junchen and Zhou Yu both accepted the order.
"Okay, then you should hurry up and hand over the work. I will be returning to Beijing soon." Ning Quan said with a satisfied smile.
"Your Majesty, please take care. Your humble servant respectfully sees you off." Li Junchen and Zhou Yu bowed to see him off.
Ning Quan waved his hand and returned with Du Shi.
A moment later, the flying car took off and flew towards the capital.
Ning Quan originally wanted to go to Mughal to see the battle situation between Li Jing and Yue Fei.
But he was anxious to send Du Shi back to Beijing to study the steam engine, so he returned to Beijing first and would find time to go to Mughal later.
Ning Quan also had one more thing to do, which was to go to Loulan to bring Aruna to live in the capital.
Ning Quan hadn't seen Aruna for more than a year and missed her a little.
According to Ning Quan's plan, after bringing Aruna to the capital this time, he would not let her return to Loulan.
Of course, this matter needs to be discussed with Aruna. Ning Xiner is still young, and Aruna probably won't be willing to let her leave.
........
In the evening, Ning Quan returned to the capital.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen welcomed him respectfully.
"Prime Minister and Military Advisor, please excuse the formalities."
"This is Du Shi, Lord Du."
"Du Aiqing is a scientist who specializes in the development of steam engines," Ning Quan introduced.
"It turns out to be Lord Du. I have long heard of your great name." Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen bowed.
"You are too polite, my Lords. I am only slightly proficient in mechanics."
Du Shi said modestly.
"Lord Du, there is no need to belittle yourself. We still have to look up to you for the development of the steam engine." Liu Bowen said with a smile.
"Okay, it's getting late. You should take Du Qing to his place first. I will return to the palace first. We can discuss other matters tomorrow."
After introducing the three people to each other, Ning Quan turned and left.
"Master Du, please come this way."
After Ning Quan left, Zhuge Liang said with a smile.
"it is good."
Du Shi nodded and left with Zhuge Liang.
........
At night, the palace was brightly lit.
On the bed, Li Wanyue lay lazily in Ning Quan's arms, listening to Ning Quan talk about the war in Southeast Asia during this period, her face full of pride.
"Husband, I didn't expect you to be so capable."
Li Wanyue's beautiful eyes sparkled with admiration.
"Haha, just average."
"I will only be truly powerful when I rule the entire world."
Ning Quan smiled.
"Yes, my husband can do it." Li Wanyue said sweetly.
"Haha, that should be possible."
"Wanyue, I plan to go to Loulan to bring Aruna to the capital. What do you think?"
Ning Quan suddenly asked.
"Okay, my husband should really bring my sister here." Li Wanyue said happily.
"Yeah, I think so too."
"But this time is different. I plan to bring her here and not let her return to Loulan."
Ning Quan said.
"This is better. My husband should have done this a long time ago." Li Wanyue said as a matter of course.
"But I'm afraid she'll miss Xin'er and won't agree. What should I do? Do you have any good ideas?"
"What's so difficult about this? My husband can bring Xin'er to live with us permanently."
"But Xin'er will take over as the Queen of Loulan in the future. Even if she comes, she can only stay for a while. She can't stay here forever?" Ning Quan shook his head.
"What's there to be afraid of about taking over as queen? It won't be too late to let Xin'er go back when she grows up. Is there anyone who can take her place as queen?"
Li Wanyue said without hesitation.
"But if they are not in Loulan, who will manage the country?"
"That's even easier. Just assign a trusted minister to take charge?"
"How big is Loulan? It's a tiny place with only tens of thousands of people. It's not difficult to govern. Besides, there are no external enemies, and no one dares to use force against Loulan."
Li Wanyue said.
"Uh...it seems so."
Hearing this, Ning Quan was stunned.
Why didn't he think of that?
It would be possible to arrange a minister to take charge of Loulan.
When Xin'er grows up in the future, there will be no problem for her to go back and take over.
"Well, that's a good idea. Let's do as you say, but I still need to discuss this with Aruna."
Ning Quan nodded in agreement, then fell asleep again while holding Li Wanyue in his arms.
..........
Early in the morning, Ning Quan got up, washed, had breakfast, and walked towards the imperial study.
In the study, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bowen, Du Shi and the six ministers were all there.
Ning Quan didn't like attending morning court sessions. He had only attended a few times in all the time he had been on the throne. He usually summoned important ministers to discuss matters in the imperial study.
This time is no exception.
"His Majesty."
As soon as Ning Quan came in, Zhuge Liang and others bowed.
"Um."
Ning Quan nodded and walked to the dragon throne and sat down.
"Is there anything important during the time I'm away?" Ning Quan asked.
"Your Majesty, nothing special has happened these days. The only thing is that the Ministry of Revenue is short of silver again."
Liu Bowen said respectfully
"Short of silver? Didn't I just allocate more than 10 million taels of silver from the inner treasury? And it was used up in just a few months?" Ning Quan asked in surprise.
