Chapter 1,739 Not used to it

The colander took the doll out of the dustpan, grabbed the rabbit doll's arms with both hands, and let its toes fall on the table. The rabbit doll's arms began to move: "Hello everyone, my name is Qiqi, and I will tell you about me today.

My own story..."

Then the rabbit doll lowered his head and quickly blocked the rip in his pants with his hands: "Oh, my clothes are torn, it's really bad..."

Then he jumped in front of Queen Meng and tilted his head: "Sister, your hands are so skillful. Can you help Qiqi mend his pants?"

"Ouch!" Meng Duanyi couldn't help but laugh in surprise, stretched out her finger and tapped the bunny doll's forehead, and exclaimed: "It's really a sperm!"

The colander threw the rabbit doll back into the dustpan and complained: "This is the virtue of my father!"

Zhao Xu was holding back his laughter and said bitterly: "Just have fun secretly. I heard from Xianqing that Brother Bian Guan didn't even have puppets when he was a child. Situ put his own socks on his hands instead of telling stories.

Son!"

"Hahahaha..." Now even the colander couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.

Meng Duanyi knew why her husband liked this place. Only here, he was a normal child before, and he was a normal young man now.

From the moment I walked in until now, my whole temperament has changed, and my eyes have become more lively and...happy.

Not long after, Shi Wei and Cheng Yue came back, along with Lao Li.

Cheng Yue now doesn't have a single button on his body, and the warrior's leather wrist sleeves have also been removed, and all he wears are soft and soft cloth robes, just to avoid suffocating the child.

This nanny is becoming more and more professional as she becomes more and more professional.

Pei'er is already walking very well. A child who is almost two years old is the time to be cute.

Entering the courtyard, Shi Wei asked Cheng Yue to put Chu'er down, then handed Zhao Mao to him to hold, and she took a few steps forward to encourage Chu'er to move forward.

Zhao Xu did not look at Ju'er, his eyes fell more on Cheng Yue, and he turned his head and whispered to the colander: "Situ is right, people can be transformed. Look at Cheng Erxia, his unruly temperament has faded away.

"

Colander also said in a low voice: "Cheng Erxia has great martial arts skills, and one day he changes his mind to do good. From now on, when the prince is outside the palace, he will take care of him, so that everything will be safe."

Zhao Xuke also had a martial arts dream as a teenager in middle school, and he admired the lady of Shu the most in his life: "The two dignified heroes of Yihe failed to escape from Situ's clutches after all, and they were willing to become the imperial eagle dogs..."

"..." Colander couldn't help but laugh and cry: "Guan Jia, no matter what, it's not your turn to say this..."

Cheng Yue hugged Zhao Mao and saw that Zhao Xu had a strange expression: "Official... official family..."

Cheng Yue still often talks about how the official family of Zhao Song is like, and how ordinary people are like the official family of Song Dynasty. There is still a slight difference in between.

Now that the prefix is ​​omitted, there is still a hint of embarrassment in the unaccustomed smile.

Zhao Xu took Zhao Mao and held him in his arms: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Cheng."

"No... it's not hard." Cheng Yue was at a loss: "Mao'er... Chuer... they are all quite gratifying."

A smile appeared on Zhao Xu's face: "When the children grow up, Cheng Erxia will also teach martial arts. Now the bachelor's degree student has a monthly allowance of 30 gu. I will use this amount to hire you as the gun and stick instructor of the Shu County Government. Erxia

Do you think it’s too high or too low?”

Colander sneered in his heart. There was a trap in the official's words. As long as he answered directly, Coach Cheng would be sure of it.

Sure enough, Cheng Yue's face turned red: "We can't use so much, I...I have the harvest for worship."

Zhao Xu nodded: "That's it. I'll follow the example of the Su family, which is twenty coins a month. Mao'er also needs a playmate, so he and Chu'er will be the two heroes."

Only then did Cheng Yue know that he had boarded the official ship, so he could only mutter: "I... your Majesty... thank you... for your Majesty... you value..."

"Hehehe..." Zhao Xu hugged Mao'er and turned around to walk towards the main room seat, winking at the colander by the way.

The colander was also narrowed, and he bowed to Cheng Yue: "Second Uncle Cheng, from now on, you will be a role model for others, and you will be a minister in the same palace as me and my father. I am really happy and congratulated."

Cheng Yue froze there: "I...I..."

A little person bumped into his leg and grabbed his trouser leg with his little hand. Cheng Yue was immediately filled with gratitude.

Chuer was so considerate and asked me to find a way to resolve the embarrassment.

Picking up Pei'er: "I'll take Pei'er to see the pigeons..."

I even used Qinggong when running.

Shi Wei rolled her eyes at the colander and Zhao Xu: "Making nonsense again."

Everyone sat down again, and Colander said: "Brother and sister-in-law should be arriving in Bianjing, right? I don't know if they can make it in time at noon."

Zhao Xu hugged Mao'er: "If your sister-in-law is not here, I'm afraid it's time to enter the village. Now I have to escort your sister-in-law, I'm afraid it will be slower."

Colander said to Shi Wei: "My father wrote a letter complaining that we left him alone in Daming Mansion, but everyone was reunited in Zhongmou."

Shi Wei didn't take it seriously: "Isn't there Mao'er who needs to be taken care of? This is also the first time for the queen to come to Zhongmou. What's more, Shi'er and Xun'er have just returned from a study tour at Songyang Academy."

"It's not like you didn't look at the daimyo when you passed by him. The older he gets, the more bitter he becomes. Don't pay attention to him."

Colander has always admired his mother's heroic spirit, father and mother. The father is as thoughtful as hair, gentle and kind, more like a loving mother; the mother is bold and decisive, daring to do things, more like a strict father.

Zhao Xu said: "There are changes in the Liao Kingdom. Even Su Shilang has to be on duty in Bianjing, otherwise he should have come."

Su Che was actually afraid of trouble. Zhongmou Zhuangzi had many strange things, and his colleagues did not dare to ask His Majesty. If he were here, they would be pestered with questions about this and that, so they simply made excuses not to come when he was on duty.

As expected, it didn't take long for the ministers to come back. Fan Chunren came in and praised: "It turns out there are so many ways to grow mulberry. Removing old branches in autumn will not only do no harm, but also save nutrients."

"In the coming year, new branches will appear all over the place, and the mulberry leaves will become more numerous and dense, making it easier to pick. This is a good method."

After speaking, he added: "Your Majesty, this law can be ordered to be implemented by all states and counties. In this way, the silk fabrics of our Song Dynasty will increase again."

Zhao Xu shook his head and smiled: "I have discussed this matter with Situ before. Nowadays, it is popular to plant oil crops, sugar crops, and cotton. The income from these crops is higher than sericulture."

"If the imperial court forcibly promotes this method, I am afraid that many farmers in prefectures and counties will dig up mulberry trees in the name of cultivating mulberry trees and deliberately 'prun' dead mulberry trees. It is impossible for the imperial court to prohibit farmers from digging up dead trees, right?"

"Therefore, instead of increasing production, it may lead to a decrease in silk production."

"So this method can only be published in journals and newspapers to let farmers who are willing to expand silkworm breeding know about it, but it can never be forced by the government to promote it."

"The method of cultivating mulberry trees is indeed ingenious, but it is only one aspect of Neo-Confucianism's 'Getianli'. If it is to be promoted as a government policy, it has to consider the 'according to human emotions' aspect."

"Please rest assured, sir, that this method has been guided by the government in Songjiang, Lianghuai, and Taihu, allowing farmers to promote it voluntarily. However, we still cannot expect to increase silk production. At most, it will be used to free up land in the north.

It’s just some room for growing oil, sugar, and cotton.”

It turned out that there were still so many twists and turns inside, and Fan Chunren suddenly realized.

This also made Fan Chunren admire Zhao Xu. How many monarchs have there been in all dynasties who have such insight into the world?

This also strengthened his determination to abdicate after taking care of Gao Taotao's funeral. Such a holy master needs the help of wise men, and he seems...not that good...

The next banquet was the Su family’s traditional Douwan farm food.

At such a banquet, it was the first time for Fan Chunren, Gu Lin, and Fan Zuyu to sit at a round table with the emperor and pick dishes from a plate, so they were a little trepidatious.

The Su family's food was obviously delicious, including the roasted eel with green bamboo shoots and pickled peppers, but the ministers didn't dare to use their chopsticks. They were less open-minded than Lao Li who came over to offer a toast and apologize.

Only then did Zhao Xu realize that he wanted to bring the relationship between the monarch and his ministers closer and show his "harmony" in this way, but he was really overthinking it.

It would be boring not to bring them here again. Zhao Xu thought this in his heart when Yin Yin persuaded the ministers to drink.

At least Situ and the folks in Sujiazhuang never had such scruples and embarrassments. When they found out that the child Su You brought was the future emperor, everyone was just surprised at first, but nothing happened after that.

Extremely fearful.

After all, this child comes several times a year, and everyone has basically watched him grow up. There are also many noble people in Sujiazhuangzi all year round, and everyone is quite used to it.
