I originally wanted to update more on May Day, but I always felt that my relationship was too unrestrained and not very suitable, so I had to settle my relationship and could only add ten thousand words a day.

Whether a person can get serious illness is mainly two aspects: one is self-regulating and the other is mood. Zheng Lang has used vivid examples to prove that small meatballs cannot be eaten, and at least small meatballs containing gold and stone ingredients cannot be eaten.

This incident has a great blow to Taoism, but it has nothing to do with Zheng Lang. If Zhao Zhen could live for ten or eight years, he would be willing to offend all the Elders. The second time he repeatedly talked about the combination of movement and stillness, he really had no ears and ears in the palace, but he had the best ears and ears, Zhao Niannu, who had been in contact with Zhao Zhen at the time, could not expect Zhao Zhen to do radio gymnastics, run, and practice Tai Chi, but occasionally take a walk. Sometimes he would review the memorials later and eat midnight snacks, but he was still very stingy. He just drank a bowl of soup, and he couldn't bear to eat mutton, let alone any delicacies. But it was better than the hard life before.

There are pros and cons in mood, and all the ministers must support the emperor's heirs. Zhao Zhen was in a low mood, but the completion of the Yellow River was a grand event in feudal history. Don't mention the Great Wall, the Afang Palace and the Grand Canal of the Sui Dynasty. Although the project was big, it was built regardless of the lives of the people. The two cannot be compared. Zhao Niannu brought his son to the palace. After a year of education, a more sensible grandson would enter the palace, which would make Zhao Zhen happier.

The emperor will live for a few more years.

Therefore, gradually, he did not look to the east and even began to prepare to recruit students.

It is unlikely to summon Jinshi. How many candidates were there in the Song Dynasty? That was hundreds of thousands!

Older, middle-aged, teenager.

And there are so few places, so several masters, Er Cheng and others will not be in the eyes of Han Qi, but there is still some influence in the Shilin world. Even major bookstores in the capital can buy the books they wrote. Besides, there is also Zheng Lang, who only summoned dozens of scholars. Once selected, it may be the second best way out for the imperial examination.

Countless candidates came from all directions, but they were disappointed. Several gentlemen checked and selected one by one. Not only did they look at their conversation, but they also had to answer the test questions they gave. There were more people coming, fewer people who were beaten, and those who failed were no less than those who failed the exam.

It cannot be said that Mr. Five is deliberately embarrassed. First of all, there are not many places. Secondly, Zheng Lang said that it is to study together, and it may even allow these scholars to join in writing Confucianism. Not to mention that those with poor qualifications are good and not proficient in the classics, they should also immediately continue to do so.

Sometimes Zheng Lang occasionally comes to take a look.

In the end, every student can be selected as a teacher in schools in various places. At least in addition to poetry, songs and parallel prose, many Jinshi are not as good as those of the students who are selected in their understanding of the meaning of the classics.

But Zheng Lang was wrong.

The main reason for Zhao Zhen's illness was that Jiayou's serious illness in the early years weakened his body, and then he tried his best to make a child. How harmful would it bring to a person? Not to mention Zhao Zhen's pitiful body. The small balls and a reasonable diet work in it. If you try to make your diet rationally since you were a teenager, the effect would be greater, and it would be a little too late at this time.

The mood is even more so.

That is to say, mood is actually not very beneficial to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Niannu heard something in his heart and said to Zhao Zhen that the minister's betrayal made him very disappointed.

Two things were in my heart, the first thing was the Western Xia. In fact, the Khitan had declined significantly since Yelu Hongji, but in the eyes of the Song Dynasty's monarchs and ministers, it was still extremely powerful. The Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun were something that even Emperor Taizong of Song could not accomplish. Moreover, the descendants had a luxurious idea about the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. What they really wanted was to recover the lost territory of Western Xia and at least restore the territory to the reign of Emperor Taizong of Song.

But because of the river engineering, it will take a long time to realize it.

His body can't wait.

The only thing that can be waited for is Huang Er. The national finances have deteriorated, but he didn't know that he only saw the country's prosperity and peace. If the Yellow River is properly managed, the internal governance has reached its peak. The Yellow River has been completed, and firecrackers from north to south of the Yellow River have been set off for several days.

At that moment, Zhao She suddenly had an idea of ​​letting go deep in her heart.

This is very harmful to Zhao Zhen's body muscles. Although it is mysterious, it does exist..." At the beginning of the month, Zhao Zhen was seriously ill.

The emperor was seriously ill and the ministers were uneasy. When they asked, Zhao Zhen issued an order, the prime ministers were taken to the emperor's bedroom and the west pavilion of Funing Hall. This was the most noble living room in the world. Because many ministers of the two governments had changed, many prime ministers had never come in.

When the curtain was opened, the ministers were stunned. From the curtain to the bedding, the dim colors were torn and old, the fabric was vulgar, and many of them seemed to have not been replaced. To put it bluntly, even the bedrooms of fourth-class families might not be so shabby.

Zhao Zhen had already woken up, looked at the prime ministers and said, "I live in the palace and I will stop myself. Even so, it is the people's blood. How can I pay less attention?"

I don't know what his words mean.

Do you think you, you are so extravagant and you feel guilty compared to me? Or do you think I, an emperor, are you so frugal, considered a qualified emperor?

Seeing that the emperor was still alive, no one could answer Zhao Zhen’s question, and they all left Funing Palace with guilt. Among the important officials, there were still some qualified people to answer, one and a half, one and one, and one and Zheng Lang counted half.

After the dangerous period, Zhao Zhen issued an edict, ordering Zheng Lang to go to Beijing.

Unexpectedly, Han Qi and Liu Zhao took away the love, but Zheng Lang refused to accept it. The academy was in the stage of summoning birth. Zhao Zhen ordered Zheng Lang to pack his luggage immediately and drove Bai Jingcheng.

Zheng Lang first came to Zheng's house in the capital. After almost four years, Zheng Lang had not entered this house. There were some new changes. A Taoist temple was built in the north. Zheng Lang knew about it, but he was not very moved. He then entered the inner palace.

Zhao Zhen woke up from a coma, but had not recovered yet, and had been lying on the hospital bed.

Zheng Lang gave a gift.

Zhao Zhen said: "Zheng Qing, it's so hard to meet you."

"Your Majesty", what else can Zheng Lang say? In order to treat malaria, Guizhou has discussed with all the doctors for a long time. He doesn't understand the specific details, but he still knows some rough observations, hearing and hearing. Looking at Zhao Zhen's face, his face was dark, and he was even more worried.

"Actually, you can't blame you for what happened back then. It's a punishment for years of demotion."

"yes."

"When will I return to the court?"

"I don't know, and Si Niang is seriously ill, I am worried that I will not be able to return to the court for a while." The fact is that he doesn't want to be a minister under Zhao Zongshi. Of course, there is no need to say it out.

"Family affairs are important, but state affairs are even more important."

"Your Majesty, the country has been in good condition recently, and even the Yellow River will be safe for a long time. All the prime ministers in the court are famous both at home and abroad. Many ministers are good at home and abroad, and even a few ministers can do it." Zheng Lang had to say against his will. It is true that he is famous both at home and abroad, but Zheng Lang deliberately did not mention his true ability and moral integrity.

"I heard you are practicing Confucianism?"

"It is still a big deal to prepare for the repair. Your Majesty China has been in the past thousands of years in ancient times. Not to mention that the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are fighting for hegemony, and the people are living in poverty. With the strength of our dynasty and the population is so strong that it feels that the country is oppressed. However, Qin State only used 600,000 troops to attack Chu. Not to mention that the three years of Qin and Zhao's stalemate in the Battle of Changping, Bai Qi killed more than 400,000 surrendered soldiers of Zhao State."

Zhao Zhen nodded.

Ancient historical books rarely record people's livelihood, but what can be compared is that the crop yield is far less than that of the Song Dynasty. There are many households in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. There are few historical records. But I think it is at most compared with the late Emperor Taizong of Tang, which is only 30 million people. How many households can a country have? Tens of thousands of people can have a war. If the scale of the war reaches hundreds of thousands, and the stalemate will last for several years, no matter the outcome, it will bring great pressure to the people. This is not something to think about.

Zheng Lang said again: "Then since the Qin unification, the people rose up, the Han and Chu fought for hegemony, and the Han Dynasty was established, it was only a hundred years safe. Wang Mang was in chaos and the people were uneasy again. It was said that the Eastern Han Dynasty was the Han Dynasty, but in fact the Ba Jing was invisibly replaced a dynasty. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms fought for power, the Sixteen Kingdoms, and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it took more than three hundred years before the Sui Dynasty was unified. Unfortunately, the Sui Yan Emperor was released. A Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties reduced the population by two-thirds."

This sounds light, but it is different in Zhao Zhen's heart, so he couldn't help but sigh.

"The Tang Dynasty seemed to have never been divided, and lasted for nearly three hundred years, but in fact, it has not. Since the Anshi Rebellion, the country began to have a miserable life. It was the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms again. It was not until our dynasty that the people took a breath. Why, one is the system and the other is the thought. A good monarch, plus a few virtuous ministers, the country can rule for decades. Once the lord is not good, or there is no support from the virtuous ministers, the country will quickly fall. If the violent lord is in power, the country will be like the Qin and Sui, and immediately Tu Ran. This is more harmful to the people than the collapse."

Landslide means that the country suddenly goes to destruction. It is gradually going to destruction and is eventually dismembered by the princes or the great powers. Zheng Lang said that landslides cannot collapse, but it is almost the same. If you want to fight quickly, it is better to let it collapse than let it collapse. On the contrary, after suffering from pain, the people can enter a new era.

But no matter how serious it is, neither of them is what the same feudal dynasty would like to see. Zheng Lang said: "Your Majesty, from the perspective of my ministers, you don't need to read Chinese history books. You can summarize them in just eight words. You will have to be together for a long time, and you will have to be separated for a long time."

The Eight Characters are filled with passion in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but from Zheng Lang's mouth, they are filled with all kinds of blood, helplessness, sighs, disappointments, and unwillingness.

"I want to give it a try and see if I can find another way out."

“This is very difficult.”

"I know it's difficult. If I do it, maybe there will be hope. If I don't, the Zhao clan members of China, including the Zhao clan, are still struggling in this cycle of death. It's still too late to do it. When the administration is corrupt, it's too late to do anything. For example, there are some people who want to do it in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, but what's the final result?"

Zhao Zhen was silent

"Your Majesty, if you want to be safe and sound, this country still needs your Majesty. The minister can only play an auxiliary role, and the master is the real dominant."

"My body..." Zhao Zhen's eyes flashed with gloomy. He turned a topic and said, "Zheng Qing, please give me a song."

"If Your Majesty wants, I am willing to enter the palace every day to play the piano for Your Majesty."

“That’s not good.”

"It's okay. Anyway, I cannot enter the official career during my time in Dingyou. As for Confucianism, I am still reflecting. It is also my honor to play the piano for Your Majesty when I have nothing to do."

As he said that, Zheng Lang asked the eunuch to come out and play the piano for Zhao Zhen.

After a song, Zhao Zhen said, "It's not as elegant as when I was young."

When he was a teenager, Zheng Lang's piano skills were not necessarily better than now, but he had no intention of playing the piano well.

Zhao Zhen said again: "But I heard it very warmly."

"That's good." Zheng Lang stayed, went to the palace every day to play a piano piece for Zhao Zhen, and occasionally spoke.

No one thinks that Zheng Lang is flattering, and he also wants to flatter Zhao Zongshi. What is the purpose of slapping a dying emperor? It can only be said that although these two people are in harmony with the king and his subjects, Zheng Lang is in Dingyou, Dingyou is definitely not as important as the emperor. For a moment, the people in the capital were sighing.

When Zheng Lang returned home, Zhao Niannu brought Li Gui to him.

Zhao Niannu was wearing a Taoist robe. Although she was slim in figure, she finally changed into a Taoist robe from a ladies' skirt. At first glance, it was a bit inappropriate, but Zheng Lang couldn't laugh at this time. Zhao Niannu asked, "Zheng Lang, how is the condition of his father?"

"Your Highness, I don't know much."

"You can cure malaria."

Zheng Lang didn't know how to answer, that pseudoartemisinin had some effect, but it didn't work completely, otherwise Zheng Lang wouldn't have been looking forward to the cinchoy tree. The two are different in nature. Zhao Zhen's condition is also very complicated, with a dry and brown body, wind dizziness, and the very serious wind dizziness, which led to a decline in intelligence, which was also one of the reasons why Zhao Zhen was not in power in his later years as early as middle age. Moreover, Zhao Zhen probably had other diseases. Even if he was in later generations, Zhao Zhen may not be able to recover completely. He has lived for one year.

Seeing Zheng Lang's expression, Zhao Niannu suddenly rushed into Zheng Lang's arms and burst into tears.

Zheng Lang said: "Nu Nu, don't be afraid. Take good care of Your Majesty these days. I am also staying in the capital. Every day I go to the palace to play the piano, talk and comfort his mood. Maybe your Majesty's illness can be cured. Think about it, how serious was Your Majesty's condition eight years ago? Isn't it better?"

While comforting Zhao Niannu, the gatekeeper suddenly came in and stared at the scene.

Zhao Niannu immediately left Zheng Lang's arms and wiped his tears with his handkerchief. The doorman felt relieved and thought that the princess was sad. His husband was the number one loyal minister of the Song Dynasty. He was incompetent and said, "Duke Zheng, you three students want to see you."

"Let them come in."

Sima Guang and Lu Gong Zhu, Yan Rong brought in.

Seeing Zhao Niannu here, Sima Guang, who knew the inside story, frowned.

Zheng Lang asked them to sit down and asked, "What's the matter for you here?"

"The current situation..." Sima Guang looked at Zhao Niannu vigilantly and said.

"Don't think too much, there are some problems that will eventually be resolved..." Zheng Lang also said vaguely.

He turned his head to look at Yan Rong and said, "I borrowed huge debts for the sake of Hegong. Therefore, I wrote a letter to advise the bank to repay its profits. No matter what the situation, the bank's profits should not be misappropriated before the huge debt is paid off. Once misappropriated, it may be possible for people to point the finger at Hegong."

"Mr. Zheng, I know," Yan Rong said in a muffled voice.

In fact, Zheng Lang wrote a tip for Yan Rong, which was very detailed and even more shocking. At this time, he just gave him a message again.

After a few casual conversations, Zheng Lang answered Sima Guang vaguely, and had given instructions. Wait and see, don't be anxious! The three students left with Zhao Niannu..." Yuehuang River was water, but the flood situation was not big, and it had almost no impact on the new embankment, so it rushed into the East China Sea with mud and sand.

When a river control is controlled, almost all the people have learned some principles of river control. The most powerful sedimentation is from autumn to spring. The smoother the water, the more severe the sedimentation is. However, this sedimentation is different from the nature of the river silt field. Although some river sand is deposited in the river silt field, it is more silt. Put it in the river silt field and the silt allows the river water to dilute and wash away, the remaining river sand is very saline-alkali, which is harmful and has no benefits.
