In the flower hall in the backyard of the palace, when Zhao Si walked in, he saw a table full of food.
Zeng Shuhua is on the left, wearing a water-red cross-collar narrow-sleeved shirt.
Ming Zhaoxia is on the right, wearing a lake green singlet.
When he saw Zhao Si walking in, he bowed politely.
"Madam, Zhaoxia, what's going on?" Zhao Si asked in surprise.
"Your Highness has sacrificed his life for the public good and is loyal to the king. I should not say anything. I just implore Your Highness, please think twice next time you encounter such a dangerous situation and think about the two of you."
Zeng Shuhua lowered her head and murmured, her tone full of sorrow and sorrow.
After hearing Zeng Shuhua's words, Zhao Si was stunned for a moment.
After looking at Zeng Shuhua and then at Ming Zhaoxia, Zhao Si felt a little sad.
If they were really swept away by the flood, it would be a disaster. How should the two of them deal with themselves?
Ming Zhaoxia was afraid that she would be exiled in the world, but the only good thing was that she still had martial arts skills to protect herself.
Zeng Shuhua, nine times out of ten, wants to go to the ancient Taoist temple to become a monk and become the Qing Deng Ancient Buddha I.
After three months in this world, Zhao Si has already formed a bond in his heart.
In this world, there are only three relatives who are willing to sacrifice for him without reservation.
His mother, Princess Zhu, who had been locked up in the palace for more than ten years and could only pray for him; Zeng Shuhua and Ming Zhaoxia, who worried about him day and night.
If something happens to him, it will be a disaster for these three people.
But no matter how many bonds there are, you still have to jump when you need to jump, and when you need to rush forward, you still have to rush forward.
There are a lot of things in the world that really can't be had both ways.
"I was worried that being passionate would harm my holy life, and when I entered the mountains, I was afraid of being separated from the beautiful city. I have peace of mind in this world, and I will live up to the Tathagata and live up to you."
Zhao Si read a poem softly, looked at the two people's radiant eyes, sighed, and said quietly: "At that time, I didn't have time to think too much. I only knew that if I didn't jump, there would be a disaster."
If we can't close the gap in 89, the city of Kaifeng and millions of people will face disaster."
Hearing this, the two of them were silent for a while, and Zeng Shuhua whispered: "I know that once the eight willow trees burst and sweep across the capital, some people who have long been dissatisfied with Your Highness will attack in groups to eliminate this flood.
The responsibility for the breach of the Neihuang River lies with His Highness."
Ming Zhaoxia raised her head and said angrily: "How can they be so shameless?"
Zhao Si glanced at his smart wife, then at the indignant Ming Zhaoxia, and said with a smile: "The shamelessness of some people is beyond your expectation. Politicians have no bottom line, there is nothing they can't do. So
If that’s the case, I still have to live with it, because I shirked my responsibility, and the blame will fall on Brother Huang.”
Ming Zhaoxia bit her lip and said angrily, "Shameless person!"
"Fortunately, God's will is on my side! Under the general trend, they are just trying to block the flow of traffic. Okay, let's not talk about these troublesome things. Let's eat."
Zeng Shuhua smiled and said, "Yes, let's eat."
During the meal, Zeng Shuhua couldn't help but advise: "Your Highness, you have worked hard, take a good rest for a few days."
"I can't rest. There are still a lot of things waiting for me. On the east and west roads of Huainan, at the junction of the four states, a group of Jingshan bandits appeared. They gathered tens of thousands of people and occupied the mountain as king, endangering the water transportation. The local government concealed the report.
I went to the official's house and planned to take the Zuo Yiwei officers and soldiers to practice their skills."
"Suppress the bandits," Zeng Shuhua hesitated for a moment, then continued to persuade, "the matter of mobilizing troops between the country and the dynasty is the most complicated. It is reported to the local government, discussed by the political hall, and then approved by the officials. The imperial pen was sent to the Privy Council, and the decision was approved.
Tiger talisman, deploy troops and generals. The three commanders will raise food, fodder, money and supplies. A wave of departure expenses will be paid first... In less than a month or two, the army will not be able to move out of the camp."
"It's still a long time, Your Highness can rest for a while."
Zhao Si sighed in his heart, his wife's words were absolutely true.
Because of the so-called ancestral laws, the most procrastinating and time-consuming way for a country to go to war is to go to war.
Not only is the procedure complicated, but mobilizing troops and horses is also a big hassle.
The mobilized imperial army first needs to find someone to fill the vacancy, and after completing the training, wait for the superiors to issue a deployment fund. This is one of the few places where the "thief army" can manipulate the court, and they must fight for it.
, and then set off slowly and leisurely.
"I know this is very time-consuming. But the autumn harvest is coming, and water transportation is about to enter a busy period. Once this group of Jingshan thieves robs the water ship and blocks the water transportation, it will cause a chain reaction. How many officials and people in Gyeonggi Province need food from the southeast?
Once people's hearts change, I'm worried that there will be another big chaos."
Having said this, Zhao seemed a little tired, "They don't worry about it, I have to worry about it."
Zeng Shuhua consoled her: "Your Highness, this cannot be rushed."
"I can't be in a hurry. I will use this time to visit the Liangzhi Factory in Akicang, and discuss with Pan Xun, Wang Dezhi, and Cai Dongping about the establishment of the Yellow River Management Bureau. There are so many things, and I have to take them step by step.
.”
Zeng Shuhua and Ming Zhaoxia looked at Zhao Si whose face had become rough and black, and couldn't help but feel a burst of heartache.
"Your Highness, this is Xu Lin and Xu Ziqi, the grandson of Xu Donggong, the second uncle of Mengxi Gong (Shen Kuo). He is also the proud disciple of Mengxi Gong. He has been helping Mengxi Gong organize his books and is proficient in arithmetic."
"This is Su Xie, Su Jisheng. The sixth son of Su Zirong Gong (Su Song) has been helping Zirong Gong compile a collection of books. After receiving the letter from His Highness, Zirong Gong recommended him to come to Beijing."
Zeng Baohua introduced from the side.
"This subordinate has met His Highness."
The two of them are about the same stature and have different looks, but they look very elegant. You can tell at a glance that they come from a family of poets and writers.
“It’s a great honor to have two great talents chair the Institute of Gewu Research this time!”
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. We are honored to be able to use my master's/father's knowledge at the Institute of Geosciences."
"Haha, you're welcome, let's come and visit together. Brother Maoming, please show us around!"
"Okay, visit!" Zeng Baohua said angrily. As he led the way, he complained to Xu Linsu.
The three of them seemed to have a teacher relationship, and they had studied at Taixue University, so they all knew each other.
"My brother-in-law is a debt collector. He opens his mouth and causes the people below to run away and break their legs. I have to take care of the Wansheng Town camp, and I have to worry about the tens of thousands of people in Zuoyiwei eating, drinking, and defecating. The Liangzao Factory and the Gewu Research Institute
He opened his mouth and dumped the hard work on me. I was busy running back and forth, running back and forth, and lost more than ten kilograms."
Xu Lin and Su Xie had awkward smiles on their faces, looking up and down Zeng Baohua's chubby figure, thinking silently.
How can I still have such a round figure after losing more than ten kilograms?
Xu Lin and Su got off the carriage and saw a towering wall, more than two feet high, with a sentry tower at a distance. Soldiers could be seen patrolling the wall back and forth on it.
There are two gates directly in front, which are closed. Above is the gatehouse, and there are sergeants standing with swords and guns.
Xu Lin's sharp eyes saw that somewhere on the wall of the village not far away, there was actually a bed crossbow!
Where was he taken? Is this a place for academic research, manufacturing equipment, or a prison?
