Lord Moyu was forced to open

Bianjing.

Imperial Palace, Chengqian Palace.

"The Holy One is here!"

"My son and minister have participated in the father's emperor, and the father's emperor is safe?"

"I am safe! The prince sits down."

"Thank you, Father!"

His father, who hadn't been to Chengqian Palace for a long time, came to him suddenly. Zhao Ming was very surprised, but he didn't ask, and sat on the chair next to him according to Zhao Duan's words.

The palace servants brought tea, and the father and son each held a cup, skimmed off the foam with the same movement, and took a sip together.

Zhao Duan slowly put the teacup in his hand on the table beside him, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Prince, it's getting colder and colder these days!"

"Father, it's autumn, and the weather is getting colder and colder."

Zhao Ming held the teacup and replied respectfully.

"Oh... yes!"

Zhao Duan clasped his hands together again, and looked up at the ginkgo tree with yellowed branches and leaves standing outside the palace gate, feeling a little emotional.

After a while, he said slowly again: "This year's situation is average. Although the people have not suffered any major disasters, they are still not happy. The natural disasters of the previous year and the previous year made the people's life worse than death. "Man-made disasters", the people who are already living in hardship can no longer survive.

According to the observation of Qin Tianjian, there may still be a lot of catastrophes tomorrow. With this year's food, next year, I don't know how many families will sell their children.

Ugh……

Prince, do you think that I, the emperor, have failed particularly well, unable to stabilize the court situation at the top, and unable to comfort the people at the bottom.

Just a stupid person. "

Zhao Ming was startled when he heard the words, he didn't dare to follow the words, but said: "When the father came to the throne, the situation in the Song Dynasty was much worse than it was now, there were barbarians staring at it outside, and treacherous ministers waiting for opportunities to make trouble inside, The Ding family's mercenaries are also ready to move.

The father spent more than 20 years fighting against the Huns and Tatars in the north, stabilizing the balance of the court, and secretly reducing the military power of the Ding family to strengthen the military power of the royal family. Since ancient times, how many emperors can achieve the level of the father under such circumstances?
Why should the royal father belittle himself? "

Zhao Duan smiled, but his eyelids still drooped, and he said in a low voice: "But in the end, it's just barely maintained.

The Xiongnu blocked it, but kept it at customs every year, and the people on the border left their homes from time to time to suffer from the ravages of the Huns.

Inside, the balance between the court and the court is not as good as the appearance, and each has their own thoughts secretly. I am very clear and understand what they have done, but I can only turn a blind eye.

Because the royal family can't move them now, and they can't move them!

The Ding family is even more so. Although I have repeatedly cut their military power over the years, the Ding family's prestige in the army is deeply ingrained. How can it be eradicated in just 20 years? Until now, I have to endure the stupid behavior of that idiot Ding Nie occasionally!

Last time Lao Liu came back, he even dared to snatch Lao Liu's horse in public!

The sixth child is a vassal king!

It's the son of the royal family!The sky is full of nobles!

what does he mean?He clearly didn't take my Zhao Song royal family or me seriously!
But in the end, I can only find a reason to turn this matter into a minor one. What a humiliation!
If an ordinary Taiwei dared to do this, I would have killed his nine clans long ago!
The sixth child is very disappointed in me, I can see it.

But what can I do, I can't move!

We can't move, now we don't have enough strength to overturn the chessboard, so we can only bear with it and continue to accumulate.

......"

Where is Zhao Duan rambling, as if to vent, Zhao Ming listened silently with his head down, without saying a word.

Shaoqing, maybe it was tired, maybe it was finished, Zhao Duan stopped.

Picking up the cold tea at the side, he drank it in one gulp, and then said, "I originally wanted the sixth person to train a group of recruits for me in northern Jiangsu.

But he seems to have other arrangements for his people. After the people on our side passed by, the 2 people left by boat. I don’t know where they went?
You said, why did Lao Liu send them there? "

Zhao Duan caught off guard and asked Zhao Ming immediately.

It took a while to come back to his senses, and after contemplating with his eyebrows fixed, he spoke out some news he had received.

"My son heard that not long ago, Feiyun Trading Company purchased ships everywhere in the four southeastern counties, as if they were doing maritime trade business."

"Sea trade business? Then what is the purpose of sending [-] troops away?"

Zhao Duan naturally got the news earlier than Zhao Ming, but now he pretended not to know and asked.

"My son doesn't know, maybe the sixth brother's business has encountered some obstacles overseas. With the sixth brother's temper, these 2 people are probably going to mess things up." Zhao Ming guessed.

"Smash the field?"

Zhao Duan was a little puzzled by this word.

Zhao Ming explained with a smile: "This is what I learned from the sixth brother. It seems to be similar to kicking restaurants and making trouble in restaurants."

"Is that so? It's appropriate."

Zhao Duan smiled, and then said: "Although his army has left, he has left a teaching team in Wusu County. Human beings now have a rudimentary form.

The speed of this training is terrifying, but the generals I sent said that they were just running and standing still all day long, so they can actually train soldiers? "

Speaking of this, Zhao Duan's complexion suddenly became serious, he withdrew his hands from the opposite sleeves, patted the armrest of the chair and said slowly: "But I heard from those generals that these recruits have some problems."

"some problems?"

Zhao Ming doesn't understand?

Zhao Duan nodded, and then slowly said: "Although they also listen to the words of the generals I sent, but they are more effective in the words of the teaching team!"

Zhao Ming seemed to understand something, and asked, "Father, you mean that Lao Liu has tampered with this group of new troops?"

Zhao Duan nodded and said: "Although I don't know what he did.

But the abnormality of the new army is certain. If we continue to practice like this, I am afraid that we will make a wedding dress for your sixth brother in the end! "

"Father, what do you mean?"

Zhao Ming asked.

Zhao Duan smiled slightly, lightly tapped the handrail with his fingers and said with a smile: "Continue to practice, if he has the ability, just take it!

There is such a long distance between Su Bei and his Yunzhou, he may not be able to grasp it! "

Looking at Zhao Duan's expression, Zhao Ming immediately understood that his father was in a fight with Lao Liu, which aroused his father's desire to win.

He shook his head helplessly, but didn't say anything more.

"Oh, right!"

At this moment, Zhao Duan said suddenly.

"what?"

Zhao Ming was puzzled.

But Zhao Duan continued: "This year our harvest in the pass is not bad, and there should be no major incidents in the country. Outside the pass, the old Shan died of illness last winter. Now the Huns are fighting each other for the position of the new Shanyu. Fighting, it is estimated that there will be no time to invade the border this year.

Generally speaking, the situation in Song Dynasty this year should be relatively calm, so after the autumn harvest, I decided to let you supervise the country for a period of time, and I will retreat behind the scenes on the grounds of feeling unwell, and take this opportunity to visit Yunzhou County.

Do you have an opinion? "

"what?"

Zhao Ming was stunned, what did he hear?
Is my father going to leave all the work to him and run out chic?
He really wanted to object, but looking at his father's half-smiling eyes, he knew that he had no choice to object.

He had no choice but to nod his head in agreement.

"I have no objection, my father has met with my sixth younger brother, and on behalf of my son, I would like to say hello to him.

When will father come back? "

"After the next year, I want to spend a New Year with Lao Liu this year."

"Uh, how will the courtiers explain it?"

"You have to figure out how to do this yourself. Da Song belongs to me now, but in the end he belongs to you, the crown prince, and you should bear some responsibilities. I believe you can do it.

My father is old and lacks energy, so I should take a rest. "

Saying that, Zhao Duan stood up, patted Zhao Ming on the shoulder, showed a kind smile, and then turned and left with a relaxed face.

"Time is running out, Prince, get ready early!
But don't tell me you're not ready when I'm leaving.

I will not agree then! "

Looking at the footsteps and back of his father leaving briskly, Zhao Ming couldn't help but slapped himself on the face.

Good guy!
This old man, is this going to be messed up?
So you want to be a hands-off shopkeeper?
Can……

Thinking of this, Zhao Ming couldn't help frowning deeply, got up and walked outside the palace gate.

Looking at the huge ginkgo tree whose leaves have almost turned into gold, some of the leaves on the branches have begun to fall.

Autumn is here, and the old ones can't hang on the tree for too long after all. Next spring, new leaves will hang on the branches again.

Can I really hold on to Da Song, a big ship that has been patched up and barely continues to operate?
