What to do with a full-scale life

Chapter 607 Industrial System Explosion

After all, Zhao Zhen is also in his 60s, so this operation is considered a serious injury. In addition, the recent flood in Dali has caused a large number of refugees to flood into the border. All parts of the country have also been affected by floods, and food relief is being opened everywhere. At this time, the wedding celebration is somewhat unreasonable.

So Zhao Zhen asked her daughter to have a good chat with her about this matter. Zhao Rong was also understanding, knowing that her identity was often out of her control, and it was her mother who was very anxious beside her. After all, Zhao Rong is also 20 years old, even in an ordinary family, she is considered an old girl, and the daughter in the family can't be beautiful when she gets married. This is somewhat sorry for her daughter.

But after all, Zhao Rong has worked as a women's director for three years, and her ideological work is very good. While persuading her mother not to worry, she described her growth and experience in the past three years to her father.

In fact, for a young daughter like Zhao Rong, her parents didn't set any forward-looking future plans for her, as long as she can live in peace, because there are not many children of the royal family who can truly live a full life. , especially the princess.Moreover, Zhao Zhen may really have a poor relationship with his descendants. He has had two sons all his life, but all of them died young, and only four daughters are left. The others have been one step ahead one after another. A nephew, and this nephew may not be alive for a few years.

So as long as he saw Zhao Rong, he would feel special pity, and he hoped that this daughter could go on happily, and the rest was nothing.

So in the end everyone reached an agreement, all the necessary procedures have been done, but the ceremony will not be held for the time being, and then Zhao Rong should do whatever she wants, anyway, everyone knows that a small palace can't keep her wild heart canary.

Brother Zhang doesn't have any special opinion about this. It doesn't matter if the ceremony is not a ceremony. His mind is now full of plans to climb the technology tree. In three years, the first and second batches of technicians in the county will come out one after another. Now But it's time to get serious about making big plans.

However, the news that Zhao Zhen turned from danger to safety did surprise many people. They only knew that Zhao Zhen was rescued by Zhao Rong, but they didn't know exactly how he was rescued.

And the crown prince who had already prepared the dragon robe at home to succeed him, but now he was sitting in the prince's mansion with gloomy eyes and a very ugly face, coughing hard from time to time.

Standing beside him is his son, namely Song Shenzong Zhao Xu in the serious history. He is now in his 20s, and standing there looks like a young hero.

He knew in his heart what his father was worried about. This time the government turned the corner, the biggest victim is probably the prince. He has been the prince for almost 40 years, and now his body is getting worse every day. He is about to leave, but this He has never sat on the throne for a day.

In fact, whether the old prince of ten thousand years should be the emperor is not what he is thinking about now. What he is really worried about is what will happen to his son if he dies as a prince?After all, I have been dependent on others for so many years, and my son may not even be able to inherit the throne.This is what he really can't stand.

So Zhao Shu was already holding back a lot of energy in his heart. If he couldn't inherit the throne before he died, he would definitely take a gamble and launch a military remonstrance to force Zhao Zhen to abdicate.And he has supervised the country as the prince for many years, and he has accumulated considerable power in his hands. If this power is released properly, he should be able to handle things properly.

But when he thought of this, he thought that this good opportunity given by God was gone, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and then he held a grudge against Zhao Rong.

On the contrary, his son, that is, Shenzong Zhao Xu, felt that the throne didn't matter, it was his own, it was his own, and it was fine if it wasn't his own. Compared with his father, Shenzong Zhao Xu seemed more youthful and straightforward.

But in the end, his arms couldn't twist his thighs. Seeing his father's appearance now, he felt very anxious, because he knew his father's nature too well, and he was obviously ready to take risks now.And it's okay if this matter succeeds, if it doesn't succeed, I'm afraid it will hurt the whole group of people.

So Zhao Xu was anxious but didn't know what to do. He tossed and turned on the bed all night, but didn't know what to do.

About three days later, Zhao Rong and Brother Zhang had a simple wedding. Although it was not a grand ceremony, there were not many rewards at all, and even Brother Zhang's uncle who was not very contactable was rejected. Picking it up from the palace can be regarded as the standard configuration of the matchmaker's words, and Zhao Rong didn't care about the form at all. Anyway, since the day he ran to the county with that wooden lump three years ago, he has already Everything has been calculated.

There were no outsiders in this wedding, and they all belonged to relatives of the emperor, including Zhao Xu.Because Zhao Shu was sick and unable to go, Shenzong Zhao Xu sent congratulatory gifts to his aunt instead of his father.

"aunt……"

At the banquet after the wedding, Zhao Rong came to rest in the back hall, but at this moment Zhao Xu ran over sneakily, stood outside the window and waved to her: "Auntie, come here..."

Because Zhao Rong is an old man and is about the same age as Zhao Xu, the two have been used to fighting together since they were young. At that time, Zhao Xu was weak, and Zhao Rong always stood out for him, so the relationship between the two has always been very good.

"What's the matter? Did you come here to laugh at my aunt's face painted like a monkey's butt?"

"Don't dare..." Zhao Xu laughed a few times, and then said worriedly: "Auntie, I'm going to tell you something, don't tell others, otherwise...or my head will fall to the ground of."

Hearing what Zhao Xu said, Zhao Rong also frowned: "You go into the room, and I'll call my brother Zhang."

Zhao Rong ordered Ruyi to call the groom over, and Brother Zhang came here from the banquet soon. After seeing Zhao Xu, he nodded towards Zhao Xu.

"Let's talk now, your uncle is amazing, nothing can trouble him."

Zhao Xu's face showed embarrassment, and at this moment Brother Zhang looked up and down at the handsome and handsome Song Shenzong, and then said with a smile: "Is it true that the crown prince wants to rebel?"

With a buzzing sound, the room was suddenly silent, and then Zhao Rong's face suddenly turned pale, and Ruyi covered her ears and rushed outside and closed the door.

Zhao Xu stared wide-eyed, looking at the tall "uncle" in front of him in disbelief, because his father decided to take the risk last night, how could he know?

"Anyone who has been a crown prince for 40 years will be worried, and the relationship between the two generations is uncle and nephew, not father and son." Brother Zhang turned his head and explained to Zhao Rong with trembling hands: "It is easy to say that he can ascend the throne this time, but I think the prince already has a serious kidney disease, and the disease can't be cured, so I'm afraid time is running out. He has to think about his son, so he has to find a way to take the blame on himself and give the throne to his son."

Hearing his explanation, Zhao Rong understood, but Zhao Xu became even more astonished. He never thought that all his secrets would be known to everyone, and if the news got out, even if he wouldn't be killed, I'm afraid Can't escape prison.

"Uncle, what should I do... My father is stubborn and refuses to change easily. In addition, if it is spread, there will be big troubles."

In fact, Song Shenzong is a pretty good emperor on the whole. He supports reform, regains lost land, and supports people's livelihood. The kind of tyrannical monarch.

So the first thing he worries about here is chaos in the world, which is also related to his education and his own character.Moreover, he himself intends to come over to discuss countermeasures with his aunt, not intending to report his father, which shows that he has considered the issue fairly comprehensively.

"Actually, there is no better way." Brother Zhang shook his head and said, "Even if the crown prince does not coup, others will."

Hearing a person with a foreign surname downplay the rebellion, Zhao Xu looked in disbelief. He looked back at his aunt in a daze, as if saying, "This uncle is too courageous."

But Zhao Rong didn't have the time to think about his thoughts at the moment, and kept staring at Brother Zhang: "Brother Zhang, you should think of a way... Father is getting old and can't bear torment, and brother's health is getting worse..."

Brother Zhang frowned slightly after hearing this: "You are the grandson of the emperor, and you can support three thousand relatives, right?"

"It seems to be..." Zhao Xu scratched his head: "But I have never raised a pro-military."

"Follow me." Brother Zhang's expression was flat, as if he was discussing with someone to buy or sell a fish or a bag of rice: "Get out of here."

"But……"

"You will know when the time comes." Brother Zhang waved his hand and interrupted him: "Just follow along."

Brother Zhang is a seventh-rank county magistrate. When talking to the emperor's grandson, his tone is indisputable and decisive, and he even interrupts the emperor's grandson.

After that, the emperor's grandson Zhao Xu personally went to tell Zhao Zhen that he wanted to follow his aunt to Yuhang to study for a while.Zhao Zhen accepted it readily, because he had seen Zhao Rong's progress in the past three years, and that fool was indeed a miraculous person, so if he, the grandson of the emperor, wanted to go, then go.

About seven days after the wedding, Brother Zhang and the others were about to return. One was that he really couldn't speak, and he always spoke in a harsh tone to anyone, and most of the time he didn't even have a smiling face.Another one is that he is actually not thinking about it here, he will never go to invitations from dignitaries, and he will never come to banquets of royal family and relatives.The most prominent one is autism. Zhao Zhen feels that this son-in-law is the strongest and the least able to speak among all the son-in-laws. After a long time here, he will offend others. Now the emperor can still protect him, but there is always someone One day the old emperor is going to leave, what should he do with his temper.

On the way back, they didn't have to hurry, and there was plenty of time. Zhao Xu would often ask his uncle, who was not very talkative, some questions. Later, Zhao Xu found that his uncle looked cold, but in reality My uncle is a very patient person, even if he asks some very low-level questions, my uncle will patiently explain until he can understand.

After about three days, they came to Yuhang County. Zhao Xu came here once when he was ten years old. At that time, he went to Hangzhou with his father to assess the canal project. Trust your eyes.

In fact, when he first entered the boundary of Yuyao County, he felt different. The ground was no longer hard loess but a kind of gray stone, but it was very flat and smooth, and the carriage walked on it without any bumps.The fields on both sides are full of neat rice fields, which can't be seen at a glance, and there are densely packed cages in the river, moving forward along the river.

Zhao Xu curiously asked my uncle what was in the river, and my uncle replied, "It's a fish farm." That's a lot of fish.

And on the open land not far from the water source, there are houses built of red bricks. This kind of house is extraordinarily large and seems out of place with the surrounding houses. Zhao Xu asked again. Pigs, chickens and sheep.

Zhao Xu was stunned. He is the grandson of the emperor, and he has been learning the art of governing the country from his father for many years. He knows that the prerequisite for raising livestock and poultry is sufficient food. Grass one catty of meat, eight taels of grain and one egg.

"Uncle, is there so much food in Yuhang?"

"It has been mixed for several generations, and the effect is good." Brother Zhang lifted the curtain of the carriage and pointed outside: "That piece is the experimental field of Chang'an No. [-], and the yield per mu is about seven or eight hundred catties. It is relatively large. In a few more generations, when the chemical fertilizers are produced, the yield should be in the thousands."

Zhao Xu gasped. If he hadn't seen the dense and heavy rice that had been grouted with his own eyes, he would never believe that there is any field that can produce a thousand catties of grain per mu, and even fairy tales would not dare to write like this.

The more he walked back, the more frightened Zhao Xu was, because he saw someone in the field plowing the land with something that looked like an iron ox. There was a big square iron lump on the top of the thing, and firewood was burning under the iron lump. You can move forward by yourself by flipping a switch, and you only need someone sitting on the top to control the direction, and it looks like it has infinite power.

When they arrived at the county seat of Yuhang County, even the well-informed grandson of the emperor was stunned for a moment, because the city wall was completely demolished, connecting the inner and outer cities into one piece. Inside the circle is a gathering area of ​​various hawkers, and further inside is a variety of residential buildings. There are supporting schools, medical centers, etc. in the residential area. Looking up, it looks like a scale of several thousand households. Tens of thousands of households are not too much.

"Uncle... How many people are there in Yuhang County now?"

"11 three." Brother Zhang opened his mouth and reported the exact number.

"So many!" Zhao Xu jumped up: "Where are so many people coming from?"

"Some are refugees who immigrated from outside, some are expatriates from surrounding counties, some are businessmen traveling from north to south, some are migrant workers, and some are newborns. The population has increased by about four times in three years. .”

After Brother Zhang entered the city, he lowered the curtain. He didn't want the local people to see his face, otherwise someone would throw pumpkins and fish into the carriage, and it would be very troublesome to deal with.

"How did I do it... If I want to be like this everywhere in the Song Dynasty, how rich it must be, and why doesn't my uncle report it..."

"It will be troublesome if you apply." Brother Zhang smiled: "I have to be promoted, and now I can't do without me here for the time being."
