Chapter 604 Anshan Iron Mine

Zhao didn't expect that the person who came was actually a woman. He glanced at Zhao Chen, and the guy's eyes were already straightened.

"I come here uninvited, so please forgive me for your crimes."

"It's okay, come in and talk."

The woman walked in with lotus steps. As soon as she came in, she felt a light and simple fragrance.

This is a very beautiful woman, not just beautiful, she has a unique temperament.

It's hard to look away after a glance.

It's lovely, but I can't help but want to get her.

While lingering, there was a kind of indescribable style.

Zhao Xinzhong said: This woman is definitely not a good thing.

He planned to wait for the woman to leave and remind Zhao Chen to not fall into the woman's nest and miss his major affairs.

"My family's surname is Lu Wanqing, and her ancestral home was originally in Zhuozhou, Yanyun. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the ancestors moved to Guanwei and settled in An County, and worked in business for generations."

After seeing the person, Zhao Chen's attitude had already turned 180 degrees, and a kind smile appeared on his face: "What's wrong with Miss Lu coming to find me?"

"I heard that Chongguo Duke had a talent for governing the world. Now Xianzhou has become a topic of conversation for the powerful people of the Song Dynasty after dinner."

Zhao Chen showed a proud look on his face, but he pretended not to know anything: "Miss, what do you say?"

"Just say that in the past six months, the mink fur from Xianzhou has been sold to all parts of the Song Dynasty. Now no one knows that under the rule of Duke Chong, Xianzhou has become a prosperous city and has surpassed Shenzhou."

Zhao Chen was proud of himself, but he pretended to be modest: "It's all about the son who has holy virtue today."

"If it were someone else, it might not have been possible." Lu Wanqing smiled and said with a sweet smile.

Zhao Zaiba really couldn't listen and said, "Miss Lu, please tell me your purpose quickly. Our Chongguo Gong is busy with government affairs."

"Yes!" Lu Wanqing said, "I came here, and I had something to talk to Duke Chong."

"Speaking."

"There is a mine in my family."

Zhao Chen and Zhao looked at each other and felt a little confused.

Lu Wanqing continued: "There is an iron ore in the back mountain of my family."

Zhao reacted and hurriedly said, "How many are there?"

"I don't know how much it is, it's connected to the mountains."

Zhao Xinnian changed her mind. This woman lives in An County!

By the way! Could it be the iron mine group in An County that Your Majesty mentioned!

Zhao remembers very clearly that at the beginning of this year, the imperial court formed a group of mining teams and entered the border area of ​​An County to mine iron ore.

I heard that this was an order from His Majesty the Emperor himself, saying that there were lots of iron ore there.

But half a year has passed, and the mining team has not found the iron ore group that His Majesty mentioned, otherwise the entire court would have been in trouble.

Could it be that the iron mine group is right behind this woman’s house?

Zhao put down his chopsticks, stood up, and his eyes were bright: "You're serious about this?"

"It's true and I dare not be false."

Zhao Dao: "Duke Chongguo, transfer people immediately. Let's go to An County for a walk!"

"I won't go anywhere in this cold weather!"

Zhao suddenly became anxious. You don’t pick up the pie that fell from the sky?

I'm so lazy, are you so lazy!

"Anxian iron ore! Anxian iron ore!" Zhao said twice.

Zhao Chen looked confused.

"At the beginning of the year, His Majesty named the An County iron mine to be dug, but was not contracted to any private trading company! It was personally led by Zhao Mingcheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Works, to dig it!"

“So what?”

"Zhao Mingcheng has been digging for a year but hasn't dug it. All the officials in the court doubted whether there is really an iron ore there, but His Majesty insisted that there is a large amount of iron ore there. This matter has been debated several times in the court. Once, His Majesty was angry! He said that even if the entire mountain in An County was leveled, he would have to be dug out!"

Zhao Chen looked puzzled: "Is there anything wrong?"

Zhao was so depressed that he was about to vomit blood, and said to himself: Brother, are you going to fight for the crown prince or me? Do you never pay attention to your father’s affairs?

"This is indeed happening, and it is obvious that this matter is now a terrible problem in Your Majesty. If you, Duke Chong, find it and solve the terrible problem in Your Majesty, you will definitely receive a great reward!"

Zhao Chen quickly stood up and said excitedly: "Yes!"

But he immediately said, "But it's too cold outside now, let's talk about it when the snow melts!"

Zhao was anxious: "It's not our turn to snow. Zhao Mingcheng is staying there every day now. I heard that his wife Li Qingzhao was worried about him, so he even quit the doctorate from Hanlin Academy and came to accompany him attentively. Now the Ministry of Works digs everywhere every day."

Zhao Chen was a little reluctant: "Why would you take someone there?"

"No, you have to be with me, otherwise the demographic will be solid at that time. If you go in person, there will be nothing to say about this great achievement."

"Okay, okay, go!"

"Prepare the horse!"

The winter in Liaodong is indeed cold, and the snow has not stopped for more than a month. Wherever the naked eye sees it, it is covered in white.

There are no birds, no figures.

"Zhao, won't we bring enough people?" Zhao Chen said in confusion, "If iron ore appears at that time, how can we dig it?"

"We don't need to dig. After we find it, tell Zhao Mingcheng and let him dig!"

"What's the point of digging without us."

Zhao was really anxious by Zhao Chen's mind, but he still had to pretend to be patient and said, "Your Majesty has said that this mine must be handed over to the Ministry of Works to dig, so let's not get involved. The biggest headache for Your Majesty now is that the Ministry of Works has not found this mountain, we just need to find it!"

Lu Wanqing, who was on the other hand, also said in his heart: This Chongguo Duke is really as Yelu Dashi said, and he is a guy with great ambition and talent. If this person becomes the crown prince, he will definitely be as virtuous as Emperor Taizong of Song, and may be worse than Zhao Guangyi!

Another New Year is coming.

Looking at the snow scene outside the window, Zhao Huan suddenly felt a not-very real feeling.

He has been emperor for twelve years, and he has traveled through time, as if it was still yesterday.

He couldn't help but remember some things from his previous life.

Yes! I came here through time and almost forgot that I didn’t belong to this world anymore.

I don’t know how my parents were after I died.

In the past, I always quarrel with my father and had a quarrel with my mother.

Later, as fathers, I realized how they felt.

Zhao Huan was born and looked out the window. The Song Dynasty, a dynasty that had been ruined in history and could only move to the south of the Yangtze River, became stronger under his own governance.

To be honest, Zhao Huan himself did not expect the situation today.

Many things are not something that people can predict.

The queen took the crown and put it on Zhao Huan: "What are the officials thinking just now?"

"Remember some past events."

"I rarely see the official family sad."

Zhao Huan remained silent. Sadness does not belong to the emperor, and the emperor could not be sad.

Originally, the palace maids who changed clothes for the emperor were palace maids, but today, Zhu Lian came to change clothes for Zhao Huan in person.

"The official family, the time for the dynasty meeting is here. All civil and military officials from all over the country are waiting for you."
