At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 214 The Mid-Autumn Family Banquet
During the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, when the whole family reunited, the old Zhao family also gathered in the palace to celebrate the festival.

Because of this first real reunion, the emperor had a rare luxury. The banquet included preserved fruits from Nanning, shrimps from the East China Sea, candied fruits from Zhendong Road, lychees from Fujian Road, longans from Guangdong and Guangxi, crabs from Poyang Lake, and Dongting Lake. The sturgeon is from Yangzhou, the saury is from Yangzhou, and the tableware is from Jingdezhen.

Facts have proved that the emperor still liked these things, and he took them all after giving instructions not to waste people or money.

There is naturally something to say in various places. This is not only a filial intention, but also shows that the place is on the right track, and the emperor can verify it.

Because there were so many good things that they couldn't eat on weekdays, Zhao Zhaobing, Zhao Qingzhi's three little cheeks were bulging, and they didn't stop.

Thanks to the performance of the three of them, the adults are also harmonious, especially Xie Daoqing, who keeps picking up food for the three little ones.

In order to avoid suspicion, Xie Daoqing had been living in seclusion since her return and never met Zhao. But the facts proved that she was indeed overly worried.

After eating for a long time, Quan Jiu said: "Your Majesty..."

"My dear." Zhao Shi interrupted Quan Jiu and said, "Today's family dinner is all for our own family, so there is no need to be restrained."

"Eldest brother." Quan Jiu changed his title and said, "Third brother's country of Ning is prospering day by day. I'm thinking about whether to let my second brother also establish the country. Of course, if he goes a few years later, it will be run by my whole clan."

Zhao Xiaosan flaunted Ning Guo's wealth in the newspaper, and Quan Jiu naturally saw it and couldn't help but get interested.

As an emperor who surrendered, Zhao Xiaoer's reputation was very bad. People didn't care that he was young at the time, they just remembered him as the emperor.

After all, you are only one year older now, and you can push back even though you are only one year younger. You are only one year younger, but you have most of the world. How come you can't hold on to it?
Even the two descendants of the Xie family and the Quan family could not raise their heads and could only live in seclusion.

Therefore, the Quan family wanted to find a way out for the two clans. Of course, she did not mention the Xie family, only the Quan family.

In addition, Quan Jiu already knew that the emperor was not worried about his second brother, but he still wanted to completely prove that Zhao Xiaoer was harmless, and Jianguo was a good way to do it.

Zhao Shi didn't consider Quan Jiu's thoughts, and shook his head, "I'm afraid that the Quan clan will not be able to support overseas development."

"I can learn from Ning Guo and use the profits to connect powerful businessmen for joint development." Quan Jiu said quickly.

"The second brother and the third brother are in different situations and cannot be confused." Zhao Shi thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth: "The third brother is the prince of the prison country. Even if he cannot inherit Datong, his status as a prince remains unchanged, so there are many people who are willing to surrender.

The second brother is a person who has returned to the south. He is not a relative of the imperial family in terms of legal principles. Moreover, my wife has heard of the folk customs, so I am afraid that no one will be willing to obey. "

As soon as these words came out, Zhao suddenly felt that the food was no longer tasty, Xie Daoqing looked worried, and Quan Jiu turned pale.

Although the Quan family is a descendant of the family, the family property and money were either confiscated or bribed to buy their lives. In fact, they have lost much savings. The same is true for the Xie family. The two clans alone will never be able to support the expenses of founding the country.

Yang couldn't bear it and said, "Can't the imperial court support one or two?"

"No." Zhao refused simply and said: "In fact, the second brother is dead. I care about the brotherhood and give it to the Duke. I am extremely kind and considerate both internally and externally.

However, there are countless meritorious officials in the country, and many people are bestowed with titles. If we sponsor the second brother, what will happen to the rest?
The imperial court cannot afford it, and domestic manpower and material resources are lacking. This is not the time to develop overseas on a large scale. "

Everyone was silent.

The reality is such a reality, and we cannot blame the emperor for not being friendly.

If it is given to Zhao, then Jiang Wanzai, Liu Shiyong and other people must support it. According to the level, the resources given will be more than Zhao. Can the court afford it?
Bankrupt in minutes.

Zhao Xiaosan caught up with the good times and supervised the country as a prince. The world regarded this as a spare tire to compensate. Otherwise, the number of followers would be reduced by at least half, and there would be no thunder. "Your Majesty." Xie Daoqing spoke slowly and said, "Do you have any good ideas?"

"Yes." Zhao Shi said: "Wash away the shame with merit, get an heir early, join the army, and prove yourself with meritorious service. If unfortunately you die in battle, you will be restored to the throne."

"Ah..." Quan Jiu whispered, then hastily shut up.

Zhao said: "Brother don't worry, younger brother will definitely not lose the prestige of the Zhao family."

"You are 11 years old, and you still have seven years to go. If you practice hard every day, you will definitely be able to make great achievements!"

Zhao is not entirely comforting, because the physical fitness of the royal children is quite good. Even if they cannot become peerless warriors, ordinary generals can still do it easily.

Moreover, war has entered the semi-firearm era, and personal bravery is no longer so important. Courage and wisdom are the most important.

Quan Jiu was reluctant to let his son go into battle, so Zhao Shi didn't say much and just gave everyone advice.

After eating for a while, Xie Daoqing said: "I have been back south for more than half a year and have been living in Jiankang. It is really disrespectful that I have not been able to pay homage to my ancestors. I want to go back to Lin'an. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

"Grandma might as well take the second and third brothers with her." Zhao Shi continued: "It's not only filial piety, but also to give them a holiday. They have been doing well recently."

"Thank you, big brother." The two little ones were immediately overjoyed.

"No need to thank you, this is the reward for your hard work." Zhao Shi said.

Probably because there is someone to compare with, one of the two little ones is more energetic than the other, and they have both made great progress, so they should take a holiday.

Xie Daoqing showed a smile and said: "The autumn weather is refreshing now. Go and come back quickly. One month is enough."

"Yes." Zhao Shi added another sentence, "My wife and I can also go together."

"I want to go too!" Zhao Qingzhi shouted, very dissatisfied that her eldest brother had forgotten her.

"Okay, go and help big brother see how the people are doing on the way. If you do well, you will be rewarded." Zhao Shi agreed with a smile.

When he returned to Lin'an, of course Zhao went to offer sacrifices, but he found that he didn't want to go because he really had no feelings for his ancestors.

To be honest, Zhao Paopao's life and death are endless. His contributions are not small, but his faults are also many. As for the following ones, each one is worse than the other, and there is no need for sacrifice.

In history, about two or three years later, Kublai Khan used Yang Lian Zhenjia to rule Jiangnan Buddhism. Then Yang Lian Zhenjia broke open the tombs of the emperors below Gaozong in order to search for wealth, and took all the burial objects, not to mention the bones. All were spread.

Among them, Lizong was the worst. In order to remove the mercury from his body, his body was hung upside down on a tree. If he could have predicted his fate, he would definitely not have been embalmed.

Now, the Song Army reversed quickly, and the tombs of the emperors were only slightly damaged, and there was no serious problem, and Lin'an left priests to maintain the worship.

Zhao didn't want to, but he couldn't stop Xie Daoqing. After all, she was the queen of Lizong and the legal mother of Duzong, so she should go back and have a look.

This is part of the etiquette, just like when Zhao returned to Lin'an to worship, it cannot be abolished.

Zhao Xiaoer failed to found the country, but he was able to take a holiday, and everyone else could go out to relax. This Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was successfully concluded.
