After the founding of the country, Liu Yu set a rule.
While displaying the might of the Great Han Empire to the outside world, it was also telling the surrounding countries to behave themselves and not jump.
As for national policies, they would not be mentioned during the coronation ceremony.
Of course, Liu Yu wasn't bragging. He was talking about his goal and the future direction of the country.
In this era, there were not many countries on Earth that dared to call themselves empires, but there were indeed some.
However, these countries were all in the west. Liu Yu's words were to prepare for the future attack on the west.
The Holy Roman Empire and the Turkish Empire would be destroyed sooner or later.
But right now, Liu Yu's main target was still the surrounding countries.
"Gifts from foreign envoys!"
After the coronation ceremony, the foreign envoys entered the hall and began to present gifts.
The foreign envoys who had come to observe the ceremony entered the hall one by one and began to present their gifts.
It was just a process. You give gifts, I give you something, everyone is good, I'm good.
Liu Yu was not stupid. No matter what kind of gifts the foreign countries presented, Liu Yu would treat the Four Books and Five Classics and Confucian classics as gifts.
There weren't many other things, but the Ming Dynasty had accumulated a lot of books and records over the years.
The future macho man didn't need these eight-legged writings anymore. He might as well give these books away. Making dozens of copies of each book was economical and practical. It was perfect as a gift.
After the entire process was completed, they would meet again and go to eat together.
There were two huge hotels in the newly built Forbidden City.
One was the fishing platform, and the other was the Four Seas Restaurant.
Needless to say, the fishing platform was the place to entertain the officials who entered the capital. The Four Seas Pavilion was the place where foreign envoys stayed temporarily in the capital.
This time, the state banquet was held in a fishing platform.
There was no Manchu Han Imperial Feast, only eight major cuisines.
At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the embryonic form of the eight major cuisines had already appeared. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, the eight major cuisines had already matured.
Therefore, this royal banquet shocked the foreign envoys who had never seen delicacies before and ate dark cuisine every day.
It turned out that food could be so delicious.
After the meal, Liu Yu received a few foreign envoys in the royal study.
For example, the Japanese envoy, this shameless guy, started to flatter Liu Yu and wanted him to give him some books.
Liu Yu didn't say anything and ordered his men to organize the five carts of Buddhist scriptures and bring them back to the Japanese envoy.
The Khagan of the Mongolia had come personally and declared himself a minister in front of Liu Yu.
Liu Yu did not have much to say to the Khagan of the Mongolia. Everyone talked for a long time about how their friendship went back to ancient times and how the Mongol Empire would be a firm ally of the Great Han Empire in the future.
Although Liu Yu was just being perfunctory, the Mongolia Khagan heaved a sigh of relief.
That was because it seemed that Liu Yu did not have any intention of continuing to attack Mongolia. Instead, he wanted Mongolia to pay more cattle and sheep as tribute every year.
The burly man could also exchange food, salt, tea leaves, and other items.
Such a request was a good thing for Mongolia.
After sending off the Mongolia Khan, Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang personally came to the royal study.
"This subject, Borzijit, greets the Great Han Dynasty's Sage Emperor. I wish Your Majesty a thousand years.”Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang greeted Liu Yu respectfully.
"Stand up and grant me a seat." Liu Yu said indifferently.
To be honest, after he saw Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's appearance, he couldn't figure out if Huang Taiji and Duo Ergun had bad eyesight.
Of course, if it was in the Qing Dynasty, this kind of appearance would be considered not bad.
However, in the current Forbidden City, if one wanted to enter the palace as a palace maid, they would probably have to pay.
Liu Yu and Xiaozhuang didn't have much to talk about. They mainly talked about the compensation.
Previously, Cao Yu had defeated the last of the Mongolian and Manchu forces, forcing the Mongolian and Manchu forces to submit. It was not without conditions.
Mongolia did not have money, but they had cattle and sheep. They tightened their belts and paid the compensation.
However, the Manchu government had not even paid one-third of the compensation. The remaining two-thirds had not been paid yet.
"Your Majesty, please forgive us. We are in a very difficult situation right now. We really can't gather 50 million taels of silver in a short period of time.”
"I also know that you have silver, but it doesn't matter if you can't gather enough silver. You can use grain, livestock, horses, ores to pay off the debt, or even send people to work as miners to pay off the debt.
However, I am also in a difficult position because you are dragging it out. Many ministers have asked me to fight. Without these compensation, I can't suppress these voices.”Liu Yu said indifferently.
Liu Yu didn't care if the Qing Dynasty was in trouble or not.
In short, it was a saying that one could not do without money. Otherwise, they would have to wait for the army to crush them.
"I understand. After I return, I will think of a way to gather the money.”Xiaozhuang had no choice but to lower his head.
If they couldn't beat the Han Dynasty, they were afraid that the Han Dynasty would attack. If they didn't want to be beaten, they could only pay.
"I'm not thinking of a way. I have to gather them.
I won't make things difficult for a woman like you. Go back and tell your emperor that you can only pay in a month.
If you can't pay it, you can leave after a month.”
After Liu Yu finished speaking, he waved his hand, indicating for the other party to leave.
"Yes, I will take my leave."
After Xiaozhuang left, Liu Yu yawned.
He was a little tired after waking up early in the morning.
After that, he had nothing else to do. He instructed the guards at the door not to let anyone disturb him, then closed his eyes and opened the system.
Now, Liu Yu finally had the time to properly study the special attributes that had been activated.
Indestructible, Imperial Army, Favorable Weather, Sacred Beast Protection, Sacred City of Humanity, Auspicious Land, and Master of the Nine States. The seven special attributes had all been activated.
The Sacred Beast's protection ability was very simple. On one hand, it could stabilize the flow of the four seasons and defend the borders of the Great Han Dynasty. For example, if a tsunami happened outside the Great Han Dynasty, it would affect the coastal areas of the Great Han Dynasty.
With the protection of the four saints, the tsunamis would calm down once they reached the Han Dynasty, and so would earthquakes and typhoons.
In addition, the Holy Beast's Soul Essence could also be used to create the Giant Beast's traps. As long as the Holy Beast statue was not destroyed, the traps could be rebuilt.
The Human Dao Holy City's ability was the most practical. Newborn babies born in Beijing would have their innate attributes increased by one level, which meant that people with Earth Grade aptitude could be upgraded to Heaven Grade aptitude.
However, for the current people, all the abilities and attributes would increase by one level, and an Advanced Blacksmith would become a Master Blacksmith.
To Liu Yu, this was the most practical ability. The Han Dynasty was currently lacking talents.
Although Auspicious Land seemed useless, this attribute was actually a divine attribute.
What was the concept of halving the difficulty of breaking through? Think about some scientific problems. The difficulty of breaking through was halved, the source of luck increased, and there was also a random opportunity. This was equivalent to a metaphysical BUFF.
For scientific researchers, they weren't afraid of encountering problems. What was scary was that they didn't have any ideas.
Now that he had this attribute, he was not afraid of not having any ideas. When he encountered a difficult problem, he would follow his feelings and activate the power of thinking. He would directly obtain the result and then reverse the process.
The last attribute, the Lord of the Nine Provinces, opened a panoramic map.
On the map, the mineral resources buried in the entire Han Dynasty were marked. It could be said that this resource distribution map was more complete than the future resource exploration map of the country.
The most terrifying thing was that Liu Yu could see everyone's condition through this panoramic view.
This state was green, yellow, and red.
Green names were good citizens. Yellow names were a little problematic, but they did not violate the country's laws.
As for the red name, there was nothing much to say. Not only did it violate the country's laws, but it also wanted to go against the country and had evil intentions.
"There are a lot of people with red names."
Liu Yu opened the monitoring map and checked the entire Han Dynasty territory. There were red dots everywhere.
"Men."
