Chapter 16017: The Problem of Marriage

"It's not a hurry!" Su You quickly pulled him to sit down: "I hope you don't have too high expectations, otherwise why haven't you heard of it in so many years?"

"That's not necessarily true!" Wang Cai expressed dissatisfaction: "Hebei has just recovered. Bandits were everywhere in the past. Caravans only dared to walk along the canal, Yuhe, and the main road. The Yellow River often changed its course. After decades, I don't know why. Not surprisingly!"

"Then we must ask the central government for instructions first!" Wang Yanbi said: "The prime minister will go to Xiongzhou with the dignity of the three princes. The court still doesn't know whether to agree or not."

Su You said: "There are also two large iron mines in Cishan in Fuyang, a large coal mine in Handan, and two iron and steel bases in Handan and Linzhang that will be opened in the next year. We need to go and see these. We will plan the inspection first and wait. It won’t be too late when spring gets warmer.”

After speaking, he said to Gao Gong: "But those waterways I just mentioned can be inspected by Zhechong bureaus from various places and let Brother Cheng see if there are any bandits along the way."

Gao Gongji smiled and said: "The envoy offered me a salary of two hundred cash per day. This is enough to command Lifu in Bianjing. If I were a bandit, I would be recruited."

Su You sighed: "Puzong and Meng's political methods are crude and not as good as the imperial election. I really didn't think of it beforehand, and the matter was done too late."

"I cannot blame myself for this. I have asked the Imperial College Medical School for help. They are now able to use silk threads to reconnect the severed tendon. They will send a surgical team, and the expenses will be allocated from the Royal Charity Fund."

Speaking of this Gao Gongji, I remembered: "I heard that the Royal Charity Foundation recently lost a fortune in horse racing..."

Su You covered his face with a white towel and said in a sullen voice: "Obviously it was Li Xuezheng's daughter who caused this, but the Empress Dowager is blaming me in the secret. It really doesn't make sense..."

Everyone secretly laughed. For such an outrageous daughter, it would be more appropriate for her to return to the Su family. Only your family can surrender.

…

In Bianjing City, a motorcade was ready to go in front of Xihua Gate.

All are driven by princesses.

Zhao Xu's three aunts, the eldest princess of Wei State, the eldest princess of Xu State, and the eldest princess of Qin State led the team, and the rest were all Zhao Xu's sisters. The eldest princess of Kang State was twelve years old, and the next one was the princess of Yun State. Princess, Princess of Lu State, Princess of Xing State, Princess of Ping State, Princess of Gun State, and the youngest three, Xian He, Xian Jing, Xian Hui, who have not yet been granted a title, a total of twelve princesses.

Gao Taotao was extremely ruthless this time and dealt with a quarter of the palace residents. However, six left the palace to guard the mausoleum in Gong County, and twelve went to Guanhuangzhuang to farm. There were only eighteen in total, and Seven disappeared inexplicably.

Even Fan Zuyu and Liu Zhi couldn't stand it anymore and wrote a letter saying that the rain was not stopping and it was a sign of depression in the palace.

As a result, just as I submitted the letter, the unlucky rain stopped again.

Gao Tao Tao issued an edict, calling for Shi Yu to be a little embarrassed, to respond to the Five Mountains and the Sidu State Army, and to order the chief officials to pray.

At the same time, the crimes of imprisonment in the world will be reduced, and all people will be released with the rod.

Then the imperial edict was issued to implement a seniority pension system for the palace residents to ensure their future life.

Gao Taotao also ordered that the family relationship between mother and daughter should not be separated. Before the princess gets married, she should be with her biological mother. The offerings of both should not be reduced and should be provided as usual.

Those who have lost their biological mothers will be taken care of by the queen mother and concubine.

After some operations, the matter of the seven middle-ranking officials and palace officials was missing, and no one cared about it anymore.

This trip was in response to Zhao Xu's request. Several little princesses were weak and there was a hot spring in Weishi that was suitable for rest. She asked the Empress Dowager to let the three eldest princesses take them to Weishi to relax.

It was the first time for several little princesses to leave the palace. They were in a car. They were so excited that they whispered and opened the curtains to look outside from time to time.

After a while, several more cars came, but they were the daughters of nobles from the clan.

This is the intention of the Empress Dowager Xiang, who believes that they should be rewarded for their two months of hard work in the palace.

The younger sisters of the Li family and the younger sisters of the Meng family were also in the car, but they didn't seem to be very interested in the outside of the car, but they were playing chess.

The black and white checkered chessboard and the three-dimensional metal chess pieces with magnets that are not afraid of bumps look like Soviet-style chess at first glance. I don’t know whether the colander was given to the little sister of the Li family or Zhao Xu gave it to the little sister of the Meng family.

The two sisters are both masters. They rarely encounter opponents on weekdays. Just when they were about to commit suicide, another group of cavalry came outside.

The first female general, riding a white horse with tall ears and heart-shaped ears, was Shi Wei. The cavalry behind were also women, and they were female cavalrymen from Faxiyuan.

The two girls in the car finally raised their heads to look at the heroic female knights outside the car. Little Meng suddenly asked: "Yi An, you are so good at betting on horses, have you ever ridden a horse?"

The younger sister of the Li family looked at Shi Wei's back: "Sister Bi said before she left that she can't ride a horse either, but my mother-in-law won't be offended by this."

"Mother-in-law?" The little sister of the Meng family looked at her honest and rude companion and was dumbfounded: "You want to marry into the Su family? Are you thinking about this when you are only ten years old?"

The younger sister of the Li family looked indifferent: "Otherwise? Is there any other family in the Song Dynasty that can allow me to feel comfortable?"

The little sister of the Meng family thought about it seriously for a while and then said indifferently: "That's right..."

"So Brother Colander, I am determined to get married." The little sister of the Li family turned around as if she was talking about something that had already been realized: "Sister, it's your turn to play chess..."

The little girl of the Meng family looked at the chessboard and thought for a moment, then took a step: "Oh... it would be great if I could just look at the account books and not marry anyone."

…

In the side hall of Yiying, Zhao Xu and Colander were also playing chess, but they both inherited their father's virtues and had a pair of bad chess baskets.

Zhao Xu wanted to stay in Bianjing to "have fun" with the officials and the people, so he could only accompany him along with the colander.

Zhao Xu was already absent-minded, and the stinky chess basket became even more stinky: "I really want to go to Wei's hot spring..."

Colander's attitude towards Zhao Xu in the palace was completely different from that in the car. He said solemnly: "It is your Majesty's bounden duty to protect the country and the herdsmen. What your Majesty has to consider now is whether the people of Kaifeng Prefecture have enough winter carbon? They came from Zhengzhou.

How are the prices of beef, mutton and pork? Are Fuyin prepared for fire prevention?"

"In a while, King Xu and King Jing will come to the palace to pay their respects. Your Majesty must be courteous and accompany them to live with the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother."

"The two kings are in Zhongmou to educate talents for the country. It is rare for them to go to the palace to meet Shengci a few times a year. Your Majesty might as well give them more time and say less and ask less."

"There is also the Nuo Ceremony in the palace on New Year's Eve, and then there is the court meeting. Your Majesty should have a good rest and recuperate."

"There are many envoys from various countries coming to congratulate you this year. Many countries in the South China Sea are still hostile. If Your Majesty wants to suppress them, it is best to place Bachelor Zhang in a position where they can see it at a glance."

Zhao Xu secretly gave Colander a roll of his eyes, which meant that you should put away this trick for me. Why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in front of me?

The colander said that he had received it: "But it is useless to sit for a long time in winter, and it will make you lazy easily. It will not be good if you yawn rudely to the two kings. Why don't you accompany your majesty to the shooting range to try the gun, so as to boost your energy?

God?"

Only then did Zhao Xu become more energetic: "Ai Qing's words make sense, let's go!"

…

In February, Jihai and Suyou reported that mining and metallurgy operations have begun in various roads in Hebei. Please inspect the waterways in Hebei and inspect agricultural water conservancy in the counties and counties along the way.

He also said that first of all, the servants on the river were promised to save their husbands if they lost money. When the order came out, everyone above and below thought it was convenient.

However, after careful investigation, it was found that some people were still trapped because of this.

The first is that strength comes from the solid body; money is not something that all people have. If you throw away what you have and take what you don’t have, if you encounter an official who is overpowering you, you will definitely become ill.

The second story is that the distance is less than 500 miles away. Now I am promised to pay the money and be exempted from the draft, but it involves all the people in the four directions. I want to reduce it but increase it instead.

Thirdly, although the four roads are gradually becoming more peaceful, in order to be revitalized, the service has been increasing but not decreasing. The imperial court is not interested in getting money, but actually wants to gain strength.

Therefore, the law of exemption from service is beneficial, while the force of service in Hebei is lacking.

However, Su You never just asked questions, and then also gave solutions.

Hebei has a lot of farm animals, which can replace the farmers, but once animal power is promoted, the number of people who must farm will be reduced.

The landless people rely on renting to make a living. Now they have lost their livelihood and their strength. If they do not use their strength to pay the order, it will be harmful to the people.

But at this time, we are vigorously developing animal power, promoting machinery, and planting high-yielding crops to increase the production of those who have land, and the natural taxes on the four roads will increase.

The increased taxes can be used to reduce or reduce the D tax. If this method is implemented, those who have output will be taxed, and those who have no output will not be burdened.

And the local government will not force these powerful and moneyless people to stay in the local area because of the tax issue. They can be absorbed by the factories and mines of Daxing in the Four Roads and the service of the court, so that they are no longer a burden on the local government, but transformed into

Become a productive force.

The folk customs in Hebei are fierce, they have been in decline for a long time, and thieves are often banned. There are many people who have no money but are powerful, but the court cannot use them.
