The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 187 Unintentional Touch
Zhao Kuangyin was stunned by an eternal noun sentence, he never thought his son would be so ambitious.

What was even more surprising was that the prince, the future heir of the empire, still wanted to expand the Great Song Dynasty.

As long as there are people, there must be the dragon flag of the Song Dynasty. What kind of rhetoric is this, and just because of this, he is an extraordinary person.

After Zhao Kuangyin was shocked, he discussed other matters with Zhao Xu and left, and no one knew what they said.

Zhao Xu and Miao Xun were walking around Kaifeng City that day, and it was already February after the Spring Festival.

Nothing happened at this stage. This time, Zhao Xu brought Miao Xun to discuss matters related to the first ocean voyage after the opening of the Shibo Company.

Miao Xun looks very good now, and his little life in the past two months has been very nourishing.

The family reunion is enough for him to be happy, and his wife and daughter are by his side, which makes him very happy.

"Sir, you look good recently. Have you met some happy event? It seems to make you happy. What's the matter? Could it be that Mrs. Sister-in-law is happy again?"

Zhao Xu joked as he walked.

Sure enough, when Miao Xun heard this, his face turned a little red, and Zhao Xu really confirmed that this matter was true.

Seeing Miao Xun like this, Zhao Xu said in his heart:

"No way, I can touch all of this, right?"

Miao Xun scratched his head in embarrassment, full of embarrassment, Zhao Xu had never seen such a look.

"Hey, I've known about this for a long time, and I've wanted to have another child for a long time. It's been so many years, and Xiao Miao has grown up so much. I never thought about your sister-in-law, hey."

Miao Xun's performance as a father is completely different from usual, a bit like a child who can't grow up.

"Then I want to congratulate you sir. I didn't expect you to be a father again. I'm looking forward to it too. What does it feel like to be a father?"

Not to mention that Zhao Xu was really envious of this. He had never been a father before, and he didn't know what it was like to be a father.

When Miao Xun heard Zhao Xu's question, he put away his childish appearance just now, and became more serious in an instant:

"This father means a kind of responsibility, the responsibility to children, is a sacred profession."

What Miao Xun said was very serious, but what he expressed was very correct. Becoming a father or a mother means a kind of responsibility, a responsibility that cannot be shirked.

This is a common mentality that every parent has, an innate mentality, and parents mean responsibility.

Zhao Xu hadn't realized this yet, so he was a little confused, but he believed that it would not take long for him to have a deep understanding.

Thinking of the two pregnant wives at home, I couldn't help but feel a sense of happiness in my heart.

Zhao Xu interrupted Miao Xun, who was immersed in happiness:

"Okay, sir, I know you are a good father, but you don't have to keep talking here, do you want me to envy you? Well, you won, and I was defeated by you."

It turned out that Miao Xun had been talking non-stop, a bit nagging, which made Zhao Xu very uncomfortable.

Is this still the wise Mr. Miao Xun? Why is it a little different today? Is this ordinary person the same?

In fact, Zhao Xu didn't understand that as a father, everyone was the same, whether it was an emperor or a commoner.

"Hahaha my lord is about to become a father, and you will understand how I feel in a short time, and you won't say that about me when the time comes."

Miao Xun looked like he was preaching, but from this point of view, he was indeed Zhao Xu's master.

"Okay, I'm also a little thirsty after walking for such a long time. There's a teahouse ahead, let's quench our thirst."

The two had been talking for most of the morning without knowing it, and Zhao Xu was really a little thirsty. There happened to be a teahouse in front of him, so he wanted to go in and sit down.

The main thing is not how thirsty he is, but that he is really tired from walking, no wonder his body says he is tired when he goes shopping.

The layout of this teahouse is quite good, it looks quite clean, and there are quite a lot of customers, but everyone is talking about it from people who have heard about it somewhere.

Zhao Xu sat down and someone refilled their tea, only to hear the story of visiting the thatched cottage three times.

As soon as I heard about Miao Xun, I became interested. After all, the protagonist of Sangu Thatched Cottage has his own ancestors. Could Miao Xun not be interested?

The people around were also excited and applauded. Zhuge Liang has been a model of fame and appearance since ancient times, and it is said that he is extremely smart.

Therefore, people in the world highly respect the name and appearance of this incarnation of wisdom. Now that they hear his story, they all listen carefully with their ears pricked up.

But this time the storyteller is not talking about Zhuge Liang's great wisdom to solve any major event.It was Zhuge Wuhou who died in Wuzhangyuan.

Hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but shook his head and sighed. Seeing this, Miao Xun quickly asked Zhao Xu if he had any opinions on Marquis Wu.

"My lord, do you have anything to say to the old man Wuhou?"

Zhao Xu was taken aback when he heard Miao Xun ask this question. He did think of something about Zhuge Liang just now, but he didn't expect Miao Xun to ask such a question.

"Well, I am indeed a little dissatisfied with senior Zhuge, but this does not mean that I have any opinion on him. I just have a little opinion from a personal point of view. Don't take offense when you say it, sir."

In front of others, talking about their ancestors here is tantamount to hitting someone in the face in front of them?
In order to prevent Miao Xun from being dissatisfied, he said in advance that this was his own opinion and it did not mean anything.

At the same time, I emphasized that I also admire Zhuge Liang very much, so I am telling Miao Xun that I also admire your ancestors very much.

"My lord, please tell me, there is nothing wrong," Miao Xun also wanted to hear the different views of the person he wanted to follow.

Even though he said that, he still didn't want Zhao Xu to say anything bad, since he was his ancestor anyway.

Even if he is at fault, you can say it freely, but you can't say it in front of future generations.

"Sir, what I want to say is not about Zhuge Wuhou, the old man. I'm just commenting on one aspect of him from my own point of view."

"To be honest, I heard that I admire Senior Zhuge. I believe that everyone admires him very much. There is no doubt about it."

What Zhao Xu said was suspected of flattering, but what he said was the truth. Even Zhuge Liang's enemies had to admit that Zhuge Liang was extremely talented.

"But that's not what I want to say. What I want to say is that the old man made a fatal mistake." Zhao Xu suddenly made a turning point.

"Huh? What a fatal mistake?" He asked in a hurry when he heard someone say that his ancestors made a fatal mistake.

For hundreds of years, people in my family believed that their ancestors were perfect, but now there is a fatal mistake.

"Yes, the old man just made a fatal mistake, that is, he does everything by himself, which will consume his energy, which is very unwise."

Zhuge Liang didn't die of illness, he died entirely from exhaustion, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen ill. This is because he was too loyal to Liu Bei.

I was afraid that I would feel sorry for Liu Bei if I didn't do something well, so I did everything by myself. Wouldn't it be tiring?

"This is also a fatal mistake. Isn't this a good moral character? Why does the lord think that it is not good to devote oneself to death?"

Miao Xun breathed a sigh of relief. He thought what Zhao Xu was talking about was a fatal mistake, but he turned out to be talking about this, so he was relieved.

"Sir, I didn't say that there is anything wrong with devoting oneself to oneself, but it is definitely an unwise choice to do too much by yourself."

Zhuge Liang was meticulous about everything, and he personally asked about everything, even what the soldiers ate.

You must know that a person's energy is very limited, and a person should use his energy to the most critical place, which is like using good steel on the edge of a knife.

At that time, Zhuge Liang said that as a prime minister, he was in charge of the military and political power of the whole country, and he had to handle many things.

He can't take care of everything personally, but Mr. Kong Ming is in charge of all the big and small things with his abundant energy.

"Mr. Kong Ming's biggest mistake is here. As the saying goes, he seeks his own government in his position. He should care about national affairs in a high position, and he can't just focus on other irrelevant things."

As the number two leader of the country, but in fact the real leader, the emperor did not have much power and talent.

So many things are left to him to solve, he is already the real No. [-] leader.

As the No. [-] leader, all you need to do is to formulate major policies and then select suitable officials to implement them?
This will ensure that you have more energy to complete other things, so as to ensure the normal operation of this country and this dynasty.

After all the rhetoric and the intentional or unintentional guidance of Miao Xun, he somewhat accepted this statement.

It seems that his ancestors are still like this, no wonder he suddenly became seriously ill at that time, and finally implemented a relationship with Wuzhangyuan.

Originally, Zhao Xu hadn't thought of telling Miao Xun such a thing, but he remembered it the first time he heard the story of the storyteller today.

What I really mean is to perform their own duties, try not to exceed their authority, and just hand over some matters to the relevant people to execute them.

There is no need to do it yourself, otherwise why do you need so many officials? You should treat it as a display.

The country can't support idlers, right? Zhao Xu was deeply touched when he suddenly thought of this.

I didn't expect to come to a teahouse once and hear a storyteller, so I thought of this, it seems that it is really worth it.

This will also be of great help to Zhao Xu in the future when he takes charge of the entire country and decentralizes power. He also admitted that he was affected by this time.
