At the banquet in the Hanyuan Palace, the Son of Yongzhi did not stay too long, just drank a few glasses of wine, sat down slightly, and left.

And the Yongzhi Emperor left well, and the atmosphere in the hall was more lively. Dozens of tables of longevity wine, staggered.

After the Son of Heaven left, the concubines gradually withdrew in turn. For a time, the ring was sonorous, the pearl was shaking, the fragrant wind was gusting, and the palace maid accompanied him.

In the nave, the east side area. At the wine table where the king of Shu was, several good princes surrounded him to eat wine. One person smiled and said: "Brother Jiu, today Yongguo Gong is in the limelight. You've done a lot of work! The younger brother got a few new jars of Xinfeng wine, and invited the ninth brother to enjoy the light at home to eat wine another day. ”

Another prince said: "The fourth brother is generous today, which is better than the ninth brother's 1 million silver dollars." Bloody money. It's a pity..."

"Haha!" The princes at the wine table burst into laughter. The kings of Jin and Chu have already withdrawn. That's why everyone dared to say a few words like this. King Jin, today can be described as stealing chickens and rice! Of course, it was the son of Queen Yang who won the lottery in the end!

Shu Wang Ning Ke smiled bitterly and shook his head, after today, I am afraid that Prince Yang will attract more attention. This is probably also the effect that Yin Langzhong wants. It's just that he was finally involved! Zhengse said: "It's all about filial piety, don't laugh." He politely refused: "My newlywed is about to be married, let's eat and drink later!" ”

He was engaged to the second daughter of Xuanda General Bing and Qingguo Gong. Tomorrow we will get married.

Ning Ke, the king of Shu, said, and asked Ning Xi, the king of Yan, who was at the same table, "Brother Xi'er, your wedding is also tomorrow in March, right?" ”

Yan Wang Ning Xi, dressed in a crimson prince's suit, a fifteen-year-old boy, white and weak, replied: "Yes." Brother Jiu! "Originally, Concubine Yuan's meaning was to let him get married as soon as possible and spread out. It's just that he wants to wait for his husband to return to Beijing and support the wedding for him. And the gentleman was far away in Jiangnan, so he dragged it down. It is simply set for March next year.

Several princes looked at King Yan with a slight mockery on their faces, and looked at King Yan with a smile. Ning Xi is too weak. If it weren't for the King of Shu following him, they would definitely have to make fun of him today.

…

…

After the son of Yongzhi left the Hanyuan Palace, he did not go to the back of the dormitory to rest. Empress Yang waited in the dormitory. Instead, I went to the imperial study to take a short rest.

"Bring me the nearest piece. I want to review it! The Son of Yongzhi instructed Xu Yan to walk into the imperial study and sit behind the bookcase. A little eunuch brought the tea that had been brewed earlier. Yongzhi Tianzi took a sip and snuggled in his chair.

The open and secret battle between the King of Jin and the King of Chu made him feel very bad, and he almost ruined the mood for his birthday. Fortunately, it was the young son who was smart and clever, which made him feel better.

But, now he wants to be alone for a while. Sort out your own thoughts.

With his years of governing experience, what the king of Chu said in front of him was eighty percent true. And King Jin disappointed him too much! Do you know why Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty died, and not many people in the world cried for him? Because, Chongzhen added Liao salary and exploited the people.

The common people are very realistic. The rulers cut taxes and exempt them from taxes, and when they are doing well, they will sing praises to you. The rulers raise taxes, and they have a bad life, and they will scold you behind their backs.

When the Son of Yongzhi was groaning, the little eunuch outside reported, "Your Majesty, King Wu asks to see you." ”

"Let him in!"

The Son of Yongzhi ordered casually, took a sip of tea, and watched King Wu come in from outside the study, with a slight smile on his face, and said gently: "The emperor's brother is here, no courtesy!" I'm looking for you. How much does this year's Holy Birthday cost? When I came, I saw that the entire West Garden was lit up, and it cost a lot, right? ”

King Wu is a few years younger than the Emperor of Yongzhi, a middle-aged man in his early forties, very handsome, well-maintained, and looks much younger than the Emperor of Yongzhi. He bowed and saluted, and said, "The younger brother is going to report this matter to His Majesty." ”

"Hmm." Yongzhi Tianzi nodded. He had some points in his mind. The Son of Heaven has 1 million taels of gold and silver a year. All are under the administration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. But how many places are there with silver? Even if the Ministry of Internal Affairs took a share of the coinage. And he gave a lot of rewards to the soldiers on the frontier, and I am afraid that there is not much silver left in the inner money.

King Wu lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, there are only 30,000 taels of silver left in the inner treasury, ready for New Year's Day." Your Majesty is the holy lord, and the ministers dare not speak of frugality. Had to be open source. Chen Dejia Huan offered advice and borrowed 200,000 taels from Jin merchants in this way. Only then is there today's Holy Birthday Festival. I beg Your Majesty to grant this law to be implemented. ”

Today's pomp and circumstance is not bragging. At least, in the scene, King Wu did make it grand and festive, and the palace was full of smiles. The Son of Heaven rejoices with his subjects.

Table work, this step, must not be saved. Although he is loyal to the Son of Heaven, he also needs to leave a good impression in the heart of the Son of Heaven. And the quid pro quo for Jia Huan's advice is to ask for "brushing points". Jia Huan wants the Son of Heaven to marry.

Yongzhi Tianzi was slightly strange, "Oh? What's the idea? ”

King Wu replied succinctly: "Do the lottery!" ”

The originator of modern football is England. But Keju originated in China. And polo was even more prosperous in the Tang Dynasty. The solution Jia Huan said is very simple, that is, to open a football league in Beijing and issue football lottery tickets.

We all know how lucrative the welfare lottery is! How profitable bookmakers are in Europe! Private fucai,Open football handicap,It's an illegal act. But the official organization is legal. Therefore, the most profitable business in the world is not arms, nor is it any other high-tech company. The most profitable business is to "open a government"!

As for whether it is called Keju League or Football League, this can be discussed again. What kind of rules to adopt also depends on the needs of the market. It's not that playing football has to be like soccer: 11 people play. The Song Dynasty Gao Taiwei's gameplay is different from this. This is not the case in American football. In the United States, football is more popular than football.

Everything will be decided by the needs of the people in the capital of the Zhou Dynasty. And, what remains unchanged in the core is the huge profit from the issuance of football lottery. This is the reason why King Wu was able to find a Jin merchant to borrow 200,000 taels of silver.

Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients, gambling, China has had it since ancient times, and there are all kinds of gambling tools. The doorway inside is not unclear to the merchant. Gambling, can the bookmaker not make money? The threshold of the casino has never been gambling technology, but an "access card"! Pulling the Son of Heaven's Internal Affairs Office to issue football lottery together, what are you afraid of?

After listening to King Wu's general explanation, the Son of Yongzhi probably understood what "Football Lottery" was. After thinking about it, he said, "Don't ruin my reputation and the royal family. ”

King Wu hurriedly assured: "Your Majesty, rest assured, you will definitely not damage the holy name." Any mistake will be borne by the minister and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. ”

Yongzhi Tianzi smiled and nodded, "Hmm." The royal brother has worked hard. "Leaning comfortably on the dragon chair. King Wu still made him feel very relieved. Open source is good!

At this time, Xu Yanzao, the chief eunuch of the eunuchs, took a few eunuchs and carried the box containing the chapter in. The Son of Yongzhi commanded: "The emperor's brother is busy today, and he didn't eat anything in the palace just now. Xu Yan went to the kitchen and instructed King Wu to serve a rice porridge, and a few light pastries and hot dishes. Send it here, and eat it here. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xu Yan withdrew with a smile. Before leaving, he glanced at King Wu. Everyone can see that the Son of Heaven is in a good mood. This is a grace to King Wu.

King Wu hurriedly bowed down and thanked him, "Minister..."

The Son of Heaven smiled and waved his hand, got up from the dragon chair, and sighed: "As the Son of Heaven, there are often things that go wrong. The emperor's brother can help me deal with the trivial matters on the money, and I am very relieved. How can you enjoy a royal meal? I will give you the food of the prince and the python in the future! Canonized the prince Ning Cheng as the Duke of Zhenguo, titled: Duke of Yueguo. ”

The python suit was regarded as a great honor in the Zhou Dynasty. Needless to say, the shadow seal son. This is a great honor and benefit!

A national prince! Further up is the prince of the county, the prince.

The canonization of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty was not similar to that of the Ming Dynasty, and each vassal king had a title, which was inherited by the lord in turn. In the Zhou Dynasty, except for the son of the Son of Heaven, the rest of the royal family had only one title. Moreover, it may not be a prince or a county king.

For example, it is unknown whether Ning Cheng, the son of King Wu, can inherit the title of county king from King Wu. It is very likely to be awarded a title such as an auxiliary general (Zheng Erpin). Like Zongren Ling, the eldest son of King Han, didn't he be crowned an auxiliary prince (super grade, equivalent to an earl in the meritorious title system)?

King Wu's heart was surging with a hot current, and the hard work of nearly half a month was suddenly gone, and he flew out of the clouds, knelt down, and kowtowed: "Thank you, Lord Longen." "My voice was choked and excited!

Just now in the palace, everyone thought that Emperor Yang had won the jackpot. However, if there is no Yang Huangzi to explain the mood of the Son of Heaven and make emotional foreshadowing, how can he have such a good effect if he comes to show his merits now?

Yin Yizi is the prince of the country!

Yin Yan expected that the two kings of Jin and Chu would fight. Therefore, the river mussels compete with each other, and the fishermen benefit! And Jia Huan expected that Prince Yang would inevitably surface. It is up to him to show his merit to the Son of Heaven. Then, he and Jia Huan are the last winners!

Successful score!

King Wu kowtowed again, and said while the iron was hot: "Your Majesty, Jia Huan, the younger brother of the Yuan Concubine, is the first to make this strategy. The minister did not dare to take the lead. Jia Huan knew that he was ashamed of the saint and did not seek to recover. He and his cousin, the daughter of Lin Ruhai, the former Yangzhou Salt Patrol Imperial Shilin, are in love, but they ask His Majesty to give them marriage! ”

The Son of Yongzhi looked at King Wu, smiled, and said, "I know!" ”

…

…

King Wu was crowned with the title of two princes, and his son was the prince of the country; The news of Jia Huan's proposal for marriage soon spread to King Wu's mansion. Then, in the night, it will be transmitted to all parts of the capital.

In the study room in the back garden of King Wu's mansion, the little guy who delivered the news said it outside the door and left.

Ning Cheng has been completely blindfolded, and his eyes have lost concentration, as if sleepwalking! His father earned him a prince and came back. According to Mr. Jia's words, he can now be a rice worm for the rest of his life, eating and waiting for death. Moreover, it is still very laid-back and comfortable.

O Guogong!

In King Wu's mansion, it seemed that a joyful atmosphere suddenly broke out.

Ning Xiao smiled lightly, bright and colorful, her smile was like a flower, blooming in the bright candlelight, and congratulated: "Congratulations to Mr. Jia for fulfilling his long-cherished wish and embracing the beauty!" ”

She and Jia Tanchun are good friends. I still know a little about the things in Jiafuli. Jia Huan and the cousin of the Lin family are interested in each other, but they are stuck in various constraints and cannot walk together. And the marriage of the Son of Heaven will be a perfect solution to this problem. Coupled with Jia Huan's name of Tanhua, a romantic celebrity, this marriage will surely become an anecdote, and will be discussed, recognized, and envied by scholars all over the world.

Jia Huan, a person with such a calm temperament, relaxed when he heard the result, and said with a smile: "Thank you!" Thank you! ”

King Wu is still very powerful! In the winter of the twelfth year of Yongzhi, he took Daiyu back to Beijing. On the canal boat, he promised her that he would marry her. Now, four years later, he can finally deliver on his promise.

Perhaps, in the eyes of some people, brushing the favor of the Son of Heaven should be used to: reinstate the official and restart the official career, such as King Wu, Yinzi. Or get some political interests, or engage in some economic interests, you can, it's all right! However, in his heart, it is not as important as letting the Son of Heaven marry him and Daiyu!

Sister Lin, the flowers are blooming, the green mountains and clear waters. The spring water is new, the spring forest is in full bloom, and the spring breeze is ten miles, not as good as you!
