At the end of summer, the weather was still hot, and a cicada in the palace who didn't know where it came from, as if it knew that its days were just a few days away, screamed desperately.

With this lonely scream, the Zaifu walked into the temple.

Zhao Zhen was closing his eyes and recuperating.

Zai Fu saluted, he opened his eyes and said, "Zhuqing has worked hard. ”

Seeing that his face was slightly pale, Fu Bi said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the weather is hot, or ...... Rest for a few days. ”

It is not easy for the official family to insist on coming to participate in the small court meeting every day, and Zeng Gongliang also agreed: "Your Majesty, this year's harvest everywhere is not bad, it is a good year, you can rest and rest." ”

Han Qi frowned and said, "Isn't it the cicadas outside that stir Your Majesty's restlessness?" Why didn't anyone arrest them? ”

It's a bit of a stretch, but the starting point is good.

Zhao Zhen rubbed his eyebrows and said, "It's okay, the cicada is still comfortable to listen to, and the screaming will make people sleepy." ”

Zhao Zhen's sleep is said to be not good, Fu Bi was moved when he heard this, and said: "Official, do you want people to catch some and enter the palace?" ”

For the emperor, asking someone to catch some cicadas is simply a trivial matter.

But Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "That's it, why bother working those people for some of my little things." It's hot, so don't toss. ”

He continued: "Zhao Zongjiang's recital, what do you think of it? ”

The general courtier's recital is done after reading it, and Zhao Zhen decides whether it will work or not.

But Zhao Zongjiang's recital has been detained by Zhao Zhen for several days, and it is said that he is watching it repeatedly.

This is to see Zhao Zongjiang's temperament and ability from the song?

Fu Bi's heart moved slightly, knowing that the Zai Fu couldn't stand in line, so they could only evaluate fairly.

"Your Majesty, that Song Shuli said a lot about the people's suffering, the most important thing is that when the green and yellow are not accepted, Song Shuli suggested that every year at that time, the government will come forward to release grain to suppress food prices, but the situation is different in various places, and some are afraid that it will become a plate of food for the gentry, so they will take it at a low price and sell it at a high price."

Han Qi said: "Didn't he make important suggestions later? ”

Fu Bi sighed: "This suggestion is good, but it needs to be done by officials from all over the country!" ”

Han Qi nodded in agreement: "That's the case, but this suggestion is still good." ”

Zhao Zhen stroked his beard and said: "At least I know the suffering of the people and know how to come up with ideas." He has been in the house, and he doesn't go outside much, but this time he just went out once, and he got these suggestions, which shows that his qualifications are good. ”

This is a compliment, Xiao Qing, who was standing as a wooden man on the side, couldn't help but secretly rejoice, and couldn't wait to run to the county king's mansion immediately and tell Zhao Yunliang and his son the good news.

The monarch and the ministers began to deliberate, and there were not many things to do today, and it will be over later.

Fu Bi suddenly remembered something, and finally said: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that Shen An took Zhao Zhongjun to the outside of the city, saying that he was going to see the people's situation......

Zhao Zongshi's health is not very good, so this kind of thing naturally can't go. If this is the case, then the Runan County Mansion can only watch Zhao Zongjiang come out frequently and have no choice.

Now that Shen An has gone out with Zhao Zhongyao, this is obviously the response.

Zhao Zhen sighed slightly and said, "Thirteen Lang's spirit is not very good, otherwise...... Although Zhao Zhongjun is young, he is still diligent in his work and good at reading. ”

These words are all about Zhao Zongshi, as for Zhao Zhongjun, he is still young, not as good as the adult Zhao Zongjiang, don't have any hopes, and don't be too demanding.

As soon as Xiao Qing waited for the time to go down, he forcibly endured his excitement and went all the way out of the palace.

When he arrived at the Huayuan County Palace, after seeing Zhao Yunliang's father and son, he said excitedly: "County King, today's official family praised Lang Jun and said that his qualifications are very good. ”

Zhao Yunliang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out loud on the case.

Zhao Zongjiang lowered his head slightly, and said lightly: "Daddy, this is just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning." ”、

He seemed calm, but his hand was clenched into a fist at the table.

This time the lottery is so-and-so! Hahahaha!

Xiao Qing praised: "Lang Jun is calm and calm, and he has the style of a general. ”

Zhao Yunliang also stopped laughing, and said happily: "My son is really steady, then Zhao Zongshi is useless, I can only watch you come out, I am afraid that I will vomit blood in my heart, hahahaha!" ”

The two county kings' mansions are now needle-to-needle, one side is unhappy, the other side is happy.

Xiao Qing was happy and said that Shen An took Zhao Zhongjun to observe the people's feelings.

Zhao Yunliang said disdainfully: "Zhao Zhongliang is young and ignorant, what kind of public sentiment can he understand?" In the end, it was just a matter of asking someone to write some flowery articles and send them to the palace. ”

Zhao Zongjiang groaned: "Daddy, if this is the case, he can also come out." ”

The indifference just now has dissipated, and Zhao Zongjiang's eyes are more anxious.

Zhao Yunliang said: "The official family is not stupid, Xiao Qing will mention it when the time comes, and he will say that it is best to consult in person, so that the official family can understand some public feelings." ”

Xiao Qing responded, his heart was hot, and he looked forward to Zhao Zhongjun returning to the city as soon as possible.

He went to the court every day to stand in the middle of the court, listening to the music in his ears, but his mind gradually drifted.

How did the official agree to let Zhao Zhongjun enter the palace to ask questions in person?

He pondered until a voice interrupted his train of thought.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Zhongjun asks to see you."

Xiao Qing's spirits perked up, and then he cheered up, and then snickered in joy.

Zhao Zhongjun, isn't he even a good song?

Where does he get his confidence?

Fu Bi said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not the county king's mansion that has something to do." ”

Zhao Zhongjun has only been out of the city for a few days, and where he has any feelings, most of them are asking to see him.

Zhao Zhen nodded, and Xiao Qing thought about it, and began to think about how to let Zhao Zhongyun take the initiative to mention the matter of observing the people's feelings.

The emperor of the Great Song Dynasty was very difficult, and the cultivation of heirs was also a bit nonsense.

I don't know if there is a problem with the emperor's family education of the old Zhao family, or if there is a problem with the variety, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is really inferior to the generation.

Boss Zhao is the emperor who came to power in a mutiny, but his skills are not bad.

Although Zhao Lao Er is not in a good position, he is still a little courageous, but he is too embarrassed and thinks that he is very good, and he was beaten into a pig's head by the Liao.

When it comes to Zhenzong Zhao Heng, this can be called a gentleman who keeps his success, if there is no external trouble, then he can be regarded as half a Ming monarch.

As a result, as soon as the Liao people went south, this timid character was exposed, and he wanted to run away. Fortunately, Kou Zhun advocated defending against ...... Later, he made an alliance with the abyss, and finally got peace.

By the time of Renzong, the imperial power was getting weaker and weaker, and the power of the Zaifu was unprecedentedly strong.

Zhao Zhen looked at the Zai Fu, and when he saw Han Qi, his eyes were a little colder.

He won't move Han Qi, because he needs to have variables and strife in Zaifuli in order to control the government.

Pull one and hit the other, and if there is no contradiction, you have to create contradictions.

And the purpose is one: not to let the courtiers become a monolith, not to let them huddle together.

That would be the end of the emperor.

These methods are instinctive, and the Zaisukes know it, but the thirst for power makes them like fish in a river, willingly eating the bait thrown down by the emperor.

Han Qi didn't have the consciousness of being disgusted by the emperor, he felt too quiet, so he said: "Your Majesty, it is necessary for the prince to observe the people's feelings, but the minister thinks that he has to be accepted into the palace, and the good student will be assigned to the teacher to teach." ”

Observing the people's feelings, we will naturally wait for us, and then we will tell the emperor.

But the future prince should be systematically educated.

At present, the royal textbooks are mainly Confucianism, as well as the deeds of the three emperors of the early Song Dynasty, as well as the deeds of the emperors of the previous dynasties.

Among them, the emperor is humble and studious, good at accepting advice, and following advice...... These deeds.

It tells a lot of the 'real deeds' of the emperor and the courtiers, mainly Wenzhi, and these Wenzhi deeds are described in large quantities, and the praise is overwhelming.

But martial arts, opening up the territory to the outside world...... But everything that has anything to do with knives and guns is mentioned in the textbook, or even not mentioned.

Zhao Zhen sighed slightly in his heart, he was not a soft egg, he was also ambitious and wanted to expand his territory for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty.

But once the use of soldiers was mentioned, the Zaifu told him with solemn faces: Your Majesty, you can't help it! If you want to use soldiers, then think about the first emperors.

Emperor Taizong was defeated, and your father Zhenzong was defeated......

Are you sure you're stronger than them?

Zhao Zhen remembered the rebellion of Xixia with some sadness, and then glanced at Han Qi again.

If he hadn't suffered a fiasco to Western Xia at the beginning, the waist of the Great Song Dynasty would have been harder now.

Zhao Zhongjun walked in in his sorrow.

The young man's steps were brisk, even if he could pretend to be respectful, but his spirit seemed to pop out of his skin, so Zhao Zhen couldn't help but touch his bloated lower abdomen.

Hip meat!

One is dying, and the other is jumping when he walks......

Zhao Zhen's mood couldn't help but be a little low, and then he said lightly: "What's the matter?" ”

After saluting, Zhao Zhongjun said: "Your Majesty, the minister recently went out of the city and saw the suffering of the people, so he came to tell you. ”

"Civil suffering?"

Zhao Zhen had some inexplicable emotions in his heart, and he glanced at Zhao Zhongjun, "Young people know what suffering is?" What is suffering every day? ”

The mood of the official family is not quite right!

Fu Bi glanced at Zhao Zhen and felt that this emperor seemed to be in a trance.

Zhao Zhen was a little dazed, and he asked, "What about Shen An?" ”

Zhao Zhongjun said: "Outside the palace." ”

Shen An sent him outside the palace, and then squatted in the shadows to take a nap.

After he was recruited, looking at his blank eyes, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but shout: "Why are young people languishing? ”

Shen An hurriedly cheered up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister ate a bad stomach yesterday. ”

Zhao Zhen put him aside and asked Zhao Zhongjun, "What did you see among the people?" ”

He didn't think that a young man could know anything, at most it meant how miserable the people's lives were.

But it was useless to complain, what he needed was insight.

"Your Majesty, the ministers and the peasant households have eaten and lived together for three days, bitter! Chen felt that those farmers were really bitter. ”

Zhao Zhongjun thought of the experience of the past three days, and couldn't help but sigh a little.

The family ate twice a day, and in the morning they ate cakes mixed with a lot of things, and the minister felt that he couldn't swallow it, but their two children ate it well, so the minister ate it hard...... It's hard to eat, it's hard to swallow, and the minister feels like it's mixed with hay, and his throat is panicked, and he has to drink a few sips of water to eat a bite. ”

Zhao Zhongjun's mood was a little more cheerful: "After breakfast, I went to get firewood, there wasn't much in the village, I had to go around to search for ......"

It's fun in the woods, and sometimes if you're lucky, you can get wild food.

"The evening meal was better, but there was less stuff in the cake, and there was a dish, no meat, no oil...... At night, I was reluctant to light the lights, so I went to bed early, and I had to sleep if I couldn't sleep. ”

This is the life of the people.

These words made Zhao Zhen uninterested, and he asked casually, "Then what did you know about this trip?" What did you realize? ”

This kind of insight is like an outing, it is useless at all, and a random person who is familiar with the countryside can say it in more detail than Zhao Zhongjun.

The Zai Fu looked at Zhao Zhongjun with interest, but after listening to this travelogue-like expression, they were all interested.

Zhao Zhongjun didn't feel that what he said was wrong, he said seriously: "Your Majesty, the minister knew that the people were poor before, but he never knew that they were so poor. ”

Zhao Zhen didn't care, but after thinking about it carefully, he heard sincerity and self-blame.

"In the past, the minister always felt that the people were poor, but he thought that the bread would always be full, and the bed would at least be warm...... But after going down this time, the minister realized that the people were just ...... Alive. ”

Zhao Zhen only felt a buzz in his head, and then muttered, "Just alive?" ”

Living is a broad concept, daily arrogance and indulgence is living, and rushing for three meals a day is also living.

He remembered the 'cake' that Shen An brought back from Zhongmu last time, and that time he asked the concubines in the palace to taste it too, but a few fell ill the next day.

Delicate!

He ate too much by himself, but he was constipated for a few days, and finally the imperial doctor boiled a decoction and took it for two days before he recovered.

……

The second watch, there will be a change at 19 o'clock later! End of holiday......
