"It was the slave maid who said that after the defeat of Yongle City, His Majesty did not heal. So Taibao inquired about His Majesty's condition many times, and then asked many doctors to make judgments based on what the slave said, so there was this recipe," Huang He said: "Especially drinking, several doctors have said that if you want Your Majesty to live a long life, you must not touch alcohol." Taibao is worried, after all, whether it is the introduction of the banking department, the Qi business tax, or the destruction of Western Xia, it must be supported by His Majesty. But the slave doesn't think it's a big problem, Your Majesty is not an alcoholic, but ......"

If it weren't for Wang Ju's appearance, most of the wine in the Song Dynasty was low-alcohol wine, so some women and children often drank alcohol.

Although Zhao Ji is not fond of alcohol, he also has to eat a few cups with the minister during some ceremonies or palace banquets.

But now it's not accurate, is that appropriate?

Huang He's tone changed: "But the slave maid thinks that this is Taibao's concern for His Majesty." ”

How did Zhao Ji die? It is recorded in the "Continuation of Capital and Governance Tongjian Long Edition" that Zhao Ji was in the Jiying Palace, Dayan Qunchen, "The five elements of wine are stopped, and the above medicine is also taken above".

Later, Li Tao also added: "Let go of the old news of Weng's family history: Yuanfeng Qiuyan, the ancestor of the gods raised the wine, the hand was slow, the lamp was overturned, and the wine was in the royal robe." When the side marigold song was rumored, some people thought it was ominous, so they banned it. ”

There is another record in "Notes on Lao Xue'an": "At the autumn banquet in the seventh year of Yuanfeng, the temple raised the imperial palace to show the prime minister Wang Qigong below, and suddenly the wind was sick, the hand was weak and the side was weak, and the remnants were scattered and stained the imperial robe......"

Well, the cause of death came out, wind sickness, stroke also.

The causes of stroke are anxiety and irritation, uncontrolled eating, and indulgence in alcohol.

Although Zhao Ji is suspicious by nature and not as calm as Song Renzong, he is a temperate person in life. No indulgence.

Then it can only be the first two reasons. I wanted to be dictatorial. If all rights are taken back, then there will be more government affairs to be handled, and it is possible to eat improperly.

And Zhu Yuanzhang and Yongzheng also died young because of this.

Two fiascos, worries and anger, are also inevitable.

The specific Wang Ju is not very clear, only that he died of a stroke, and then at the palace banquet where a certain general invited the ministers. I drank too much, I had a stroke, and the time was approaching.

That's why I had this recipe and forcibly forbade Zhao Ji from eating and drinking.

When this thing touches the wine, it is the saddest. In history, Zhao Ji had a serious stroke, and alcohol was the leading reason.

Otherwise, Zhao Ji will live for a few more years, and survive until Song Zhezong grows up, and Gao Tao will not be able to dictate, then there will be no Yuanyou party struggle. And Zhao Ji is here, and Song Zhezong is seriously ill. The palace will not hide from the doctor, and will not tolerate Xiao Cheng's abuse of Song Zhezong in the palace. Song Zhezong's health was very poor.

Later, why did Mingshenzong torture and kill Zhang Juzheng's whole family after Zhang Juzheng's death. The truth is the same, this is not allowed to be made, and that is not allowed to be eaten. makes the life of Mingshenzong worse than that of a commoner, but what about Zhang Juzheng himself? But secretly lived a life of poverty and luxury. Can Myojinzong be happy?

When he was a child, he fell ill, and when he was developing, because of Xiao Cheng's desire to destroy people, he was supported by Gao Taotao, under the supervision of Xiao Cheng, Zhao Xu could only get a pitiful diet, and his nutrition could not keep up, and he couldn't even play and laugh throughout his youth, so Song Zhezong lived so short.

That is, if Zhao Ji lives for five more years, the entire history of the Song Dynasty will be rewritten......

understands these before and after, and knows why Wang Ju hates the Cheng brothers. They are not the physicists of the Song Dynasty, but the two most vicious Yue Buqun of the Song Dynasty!

"Pass on the Imperial Doctor!"

After a while, more than a dozen imperial doctors brought over.

Zhao Ji asked, "I was sick last year, so I can't drink?" ”

The leading imperial physician was just about to speak, when he suddenly saw Zhang Shangying and the three of them, and Zhang Shangying secretly squeezed his eyes, he immediately woke up and said, "Your Majesty, it's best not to get drunk." ”

"Why don't you say that?"

"The ministers are afraid that His Majesty will be displeased."

"If I'm not pleased, won't you say it?"

Zhang Shangying immediately turned the circle for these imperial doctors: "Your Majesty is solemn, they are just timid. However, the Taibao said that no matter whether His Majesty agrees or not, but this time when he returns, he will give His Majesty six great gifts. ”

"Six gifts?"

"The minister doesn't know very well, it may be some high-yield grain seeds brought back from the other side of the river."

"The other side of the other side?"

"Well, it's far away from the Song Dynasty, nearly 40,000 miles away. There are also some mechanical and technical weapons. But Taibao said again, it was not because he did not abide by the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and went to Mizhou first, waiting for the silver taels transferred by the Japanese state. ”

…………

"That's too much of a show." An Tao thought dissatisfied.

He still doesn't know about the three "unreasonable demands" put forward by Wang Ju.

But just knowing it, he dared to say anything, and he didn't dare to say anything.

So many people were purged because of this, and even he thought that Lu Gongshu and Feng Jing were also purged because of Wang Ju.

The group came to the bank of the Wuzhang River outside the city, a relatively desolate salt land.

Wang Juying stepped forward and arched his hand: "I have seen Your Majesty, I have seen all the princes." ”

People don't know what to say.

"Your Majesty, please send guards to immediately expel all pedestrians and civilians within a radius of three miles around you, and let them come back later."

"Why?" Cai asked.

"It's about the same weapon, and it has to be done for the sake of secrecy."

So what, Zhao Ji immediately asked the guards to expel the people.

Wang Ju said, "Please Your Majesty accept the first gift from your minister." ”

As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, the men brought up a few boxes.

Wang Ju opened the box and said: "These are three kinds of grain crops, they are all drought-tolerant grains, and they are very high-yielding, and the yield per mu can reach several stones and dozens of stones." In order to get them, more than two thousand strong men were sacrificed. However, with them, we can immediately increase the production of food and even ease the pressure of population growth. ”

These three crops are potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn.

By the Ming Dynasty, they also appeared in China, but because the rulers did not pay attention, they were slowly promoted in China. This also shows that these emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties are not as good as Song Zhenzong, who was named the faint monarch.

In fact, there are many good things on the other side, such as tomatoes, pumpkins, peanuts, peppers, sunflowers...... But Wang Ju sent people mainly in addition to these three kinds of food. The rest is for them to look for rubber. It's not just about finding rubber trees. This thing can be transported. But it has been a long time since I got the gum, and I am waiting for the gum here, so in addition to finding the saplings to carry them, I also have to cut a large amount of gum tape over there. Time was in a hurry, and the local strong natives harassed from time to time, so I didn't look for it again.

However, when he returned, he left behind 3,000 men and opened up three settlements. As a bridgehead for the future.

But it has not yet touched the core of civilization on the other side.

In short, if you want to completely conquer the other side, with the advantage of the current weapon, the difficulty is still relatively high.

But there's no rush to this.

Therefore, once a large number of people go up and officially reclaim it, these vegetables, fruits and grains can still be found sooner or later.

"Your Majesty, here's how they are grown." Wang Ju handed over a notebook.

This is the output of dozens of stones per mu.

Zhao Ji was very cautious, and said to Kumamoto, the waiter of the Ministry of Works: "Xiong Qing, you are in charge and send experienced old farmers to plant." After successful planting, the yield is counted. Then promote it. ”

People think that food is the sky, and they are indeed a great gift.

Wang Ju said again: "Your Majesty, everyone, please get on the boat. ”

Three strange small and medium-sized escort ships, powered by steam engines, entered Huangou from Bianshui, anchored at Liangshanluo, and then joined Wang Ju and sailed to the capital.

Wang Ju led everyone to one of them, and there was a boatload of sealed boxes in the cabin.

The next people opened the boxes one by one.

Most of them are gold and silver bars, a piece of eight taels, that is, half a catty, equivalent to 291 grams.

Originally, Wang Ju wanted to cast it into one or two, but the density of gold and silver was too high, the casting was too small, and the cost was a bit high.

In addition to being cast into a long bar, a large character is also engraved on it: Song.

There are also a few silver ingots of seven large and eight small, which have just been transferred from the Wa Kingdom.

Wang Ju said, "Your Majesty, there are a total of 1,400,000 taels of gold and 8,674,000 taels of silver here. In the next six years, some gold and silver will be transferred from the other side, and they will be prepared to make up three million taels of gold and twenty million taels of silver. With all this gold and silver, it is enough to launch a banking department. ”

"Enough, enough." Zhao Ji said happily.

This is terrifying gold and silver, if converted into copper coins, it is equivalent to 100 billion wen, more than 120 million yuan.

"Your Majesty, the merchants on the other side have quite an opinion on this, but after being suppressed by the ministers, they finally agreed. However, His Majesty has to promise that this is an advance payment from the maritime merchants on the other side, not an additional donation. ”

That is, the donation of more than 30 years was paid in advance.

"Accurately, accurately."

Wang Ju swept the rest of the ministers, who were also blinded by so much gold and silver, and said, "Because of the donation of so much silver, everyone on the other side will have to survive in the next six years." Although they may have been adrift on the sea for a long time and have a rebellious personality, when it comes to patriotism, how many scholars and doctors are as good as them? ”

Wang Ju fished out a large handful of gold bars and said: "And you have not calculated, if a bank department is set up in the future, according to one cent of interest, after more than 30 years, these gold and silver will be equal to more than three times, if calculated according to the deposit interest, after more than 30 years, it will also be equal to more than double." ”

"Therefore, the minister thinks that they are the second great gift to His Majesty from all the seafarers and people on the other side."

With this sentence, if someone uses Haike to talk about things in the future, it will be called ignorance.

Actually, it's really squeezed out.

It would not have been possible to hand over so much gold and silver if it had been profitable, despite the fact that trade and violent mining had yielded a lot of gold and silver.

In addition to trade, there were also many auctions of the proceeds of the pit mines, and all but a part of them were kept just in case, and the rest was brought over.

An Tao was in a heavy mood.

These are only two of the six great gifts, and there are four more.

With these six great gifts, this kid has made a serious mistake, and he can also go to the court openly!

Wang Ju led everyone back ashore.

Zhao Ji looked at the strange chimney and asked curiously: "I heard Zhang Qing say, a new huge sea ship has recently come out on the other side, is it a ship of this style?" ”

"Your Majesty, these are experimental vessels, and they are loaded with a new type of machine, which my students have long been commissioned to develop on the other side, but they have not been very successful. After the minister went to the other side, he personally presided over it, and sent someone from the other side of the other side to bring back a kind of gum, and made a sealing ring with it, which barely succeeded. But how it is depends on how well it is practiced. In fact, some problems have arisen along the way, but as long as problems are found, they can be solved. ”

Steam ships are not only the steam engine itself, but also involve the casting technology of the propeller.

In short, this ship came over, there were no major problems, and small problems continued. However, fortunately, the sails were not canceled, so they were repaired all the way and did not hinder the navigation.

And Wang Ju also intends to take this kind of ship, although he is not an expert, but the rest of the people are not experts, at least not his vision.

Therefore, after a long-distance voyage, some problems have occurred one after another, and Wang Ju has been finding out the causes of these problems one after another, and then he can make further improvements.

That is to say, these ships are temporary steam engine ships, and after major improvements next year, they can basically be officially used with sails.

As for the extra-large ships, after this voyage, they were completely declared a failure.

Although the keel was made of crude steel, the damp bottom of the ship and the rough waves caused rust to grow on a large area of the keel. In other words, in order to officially launch this new type of large ship, it is necessary to develop real anti-rust paint, as well as planing technology.

But it wasn't a failure, although a lot of money was spent on several huge ships, but in the process of building these ships, it was equivalent to accumulating a lot of experience.

When Zhao Ji heard this, he and everyone understood that new technology is good, but if you want to study new technology, you will burn a lot of money, and even several super ships with a load of forty or fifty thousand stones and a lot of money will also be burned...... (To be continued.) )
