The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. We will not let you down."

"But Your Majesty, Kenli County is not big, with a population of less than 100,000. Previously, the entire county government had less than 50 people, and the expenses were barely enough to support them."

"With the sudden increase of 400 people, Kenli County simply can't afford such a large number of personnel expenses."

"Your Majesty, do you think it would be appropriate to..."

At this time, Huang Tao smiled bitterly.

"Yes, that's true. But don't worry, the court will make proper arrangements for this matter. I guess the cabinet will issue an order in the next few days."

Ning Quan said lightly.

It goes without saying that Zhuge Liang would definitely think of such a thing.

I guess the will is on the way now.

"That's very good. Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty."

Hearing Ning Quan's words, Wang Erzhuo immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with joy.

After chatting for a while, Ning Quan asked Wang Erzhuo and the other two to leave.

Then I lay down and rested for a while.

More than five hours later, Ning Quan arrived at Luanzhou Railway Station.

Ning Quan got off the train and Liu Bowen was already waiting there.

"I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"Be flat."

Ning Quan waved his hand to tell him not to be polite.

"County Magistrate Wang, you can take the train back now. Remember to work hard when you get back. I will remember you."

Ning Quan turned around and gave instructions to Huang Tao.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will do my best."

After hearing Ning Quan's words, Wang Erzhuo knelt down excitedly and made a solemn promise.

"Okay, let's go."

After saying that, Ning Quan left the station and returned to his residence in Zhuozhou.

............................

The next morning, Ning Quan woke up and went to the front hall of the government office.

Liu Bowen is handling official business.

After explaining some things to him, Ning Quan took the flying car back to the capital.

That afternoon, Ning Quan summoned all the ministers to discuss matters.

The topic of discussion was of course the relocation of the capital.

"Your Majesty, this is a matter of national importance and involves enormous implications. Please reconsider."

As soon as Ning Quan finished speaking, Li Zhongren, the Minister of the Dali Temple, stood up and spoke.

"Your Majesty, the court has just stopped fighting and is now in a period of rest and recuperation. Moving the capital now will inevitably lead to a waste of money and manpower!"

"I second your motion, Your Majesty. It would be inappropriate to relocate now. Please consider this carefully."

Minister of Justice Chen Hong also stepped forward to second the motion.

"Your Majesty, I believe that moving the capital is feasible, but we need to plan ahead."

Imperial Censor Han Qi also stepped out and spoke.

"Your Majesty, I agree with moving the capital!"

"Your Majesty, I agree with moving the capital!"

"Your Majesty, I agree with moving the capital!"

Soon, civil and military officials spoke out one after another.

There are those who agree and those who disagree

"Every one of you, my dear ministers, is right. Moving the capital is indeed costly and laborious, and I know that, but it is imperative and cannot be changed."

"Because our layout around Yanjing is complete, our industrial zones, railways, and highways are all in Luanzhou."

"Everyone, the times are changing, and your thinking must also change. You need to look further ahead."

"Yanjing is obviously more suitable to be the imperial capital than Luoyang."

Ning Quan said seriously.

"But Your Majesty..."

Li Zhongren still wanted to dissuade him.

Ning Quan raised his hand to signal him to shut up.

"I am only here to listen to your opinions today. It is not up to you to decide whether to move the capital or not."

"So please stop talking, my dear ministers."

Hearing this, Li Zhongren and others fell silent and dared not argue any further.

After all, Ning Quan is the emperor. Who dares to question the emperor's decision?

"Since my dear ministers have no objections, it is settled. Tomorrow the cabinet will begin work on the relocation of the capital."

"I will complete the relocation of the capital within six months."

Ning Quan said decisively.

"Your Majesty, it's impossible within half a year. Building the imperial palace will take at least two to three years." asked Zhao Yuanliang, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War.

"The imperial palace can be built slowly. I can live in Beihai first. There's a temporary palace there. It won't be a problem."

"After the palace is built, I can move in."

Ning Quan waved his hand.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuanliang had no choice but to stop talking.

"Okay, let's break up the meeting."

Ning Quan looked at everyone and continued.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Everyone bowed and left the scene.

"Prime Minister, please expedite the relocation of the capital."

After everyone left, Ning Quan said to Zhuge Liang.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I have a preliminary idea for moving the capital and will come up with a plan soon."

"Really? That's good. The Prime Minister is indeed the person I trust the most. He is indeed prepared for a rainy day."

Ning Quan said with a smile.

"I am deeply apprehensive. This is all thanks to your Majesty's guidance."

Zhuge Liang said humbly, bowing.

The two chatted for a while and then Ning Quan left.

..........

"Your Majesty, has the relocation of the capital been decided?"

After returning to the harem, Li Wanyue came up to him with a smile and asked.

There has been a lot of buzz about the capital relocation these days, and Li Wanyue has heard about it.

"Yes, it's settled. The capital will be moved to Yanjing within six months."

"Yanjing is very close to the sea, and you will be able to see the sea often."

Ning Quan held her hand and said.

"Really? That's great."

Li Wanyue said happily.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

"My father wrote to me saying he wanted to retire and return home. After all, he's old and a little overwhelmed. He wants to resign and go home to enjoy his retirement."

Li Wanyue hesitated for a moment and said.

"Um, really?"

"But then again, he's over seventy years old."

"Well, if your father really wants to retire and return home, then let him do it."

"By the way, how is your brother now?"

Ning Quan nodded in agreement and then asked.

"That's great. He's working with his father now and is quite motivated."

Li Wanyue said with a smile.

"Yeah, that's good."

"Your brother is quite capable. Since your father has retired, let your brother take over."

Ning Quan smiled.

"Ah, let my brother take my father's place?"

Li Wanyue was stunned when she heard this.

"Yes, why, you don't want to."

"No, Your Majesty, you are joking. Of course I am willing."

"I'm just worried that my brother won't do a good job and betray His Majesty's trust."

Li Wanyue explained hurriedly, with a hint of excitement in her eyes.

My brother finally made it.

"Haha, what's the big deal? Whether it can be done well or not, we can only know after we do it. Let's just leave it at that."

Ning Quan smiled and touched Li Wanyue's soft hair and said.

"Well, thank you, Your Majesty. I thank you on behalf of my brother."

Li Wanyue's face was filled with a bright smile.

"Look at what you said, we are a family."

"Okay, where are the children? I want to go see them."

"The children are playing in the back garden. Your Majesty, please follow me!"

Li Wanyue smiled and led Ning Quan to the back garden.

In the back garden, Ning Ping'an, Ning Xin'er and four siblings were playing.

On the side, Sikong Ruo was pregnant with a big belly and a happy smile on her face.
