Zhao Kuangyin was very happy to see his favorite little daughter returning to the palace and immediately asked the palace maids to prepare the best fruit. Although he was married, he was still a child in his eyes.

Princess Yongqing asked: "Father, I heard from Song Jiu that he gave you a good thing."

"Song Jiu said..." Zhao Kuangyin suddenly changed his face and shouted, "Why are you looking for Song Jiu?"

"Father, don't scare me."

"explain."

"He said that the Yanei in Hebei is all bad guys, no, I let him cheat him out of the door before I scolded him."

Zhao Kuangyin breathed a sigh of relief. The punishment for demotion was too heavy. If his daughter came to scold him again, he would not feel good when he became a minister. He put his voice calmer and could not blame his daughter. She was used by others, so he explained: "Good daughter, you don't understand. Hebei can pay a penny tax over the years?"

"No matter how much tax you pay, it is not as good as the fire of the fake Han."

"Who said this?"

"All noble ladies say so."

Zhao Kuangyin looked a little ugly and said, "That fire is a waste, but it has made merits and demerits to suppress the false Han Dynasty. If the merits and demerits are offset, do you understand? That fire burns out some wealth. What I see is more than 200,000 households in Guangnan and more than one million people escape from the sea of ​​suffering. Also, the fields, rice, rivers, cotton, cold melons, sugarcane, dams in the water, and mines, the gradual emergence of these things, how many people have been raised, and how much wealth it generates. But these wealth is not in the palace, but in the hands of the people of the world. I am the king of a country, and the world is my wealth, do you understand?"

"Then why do you want to dismiss his official position?"

"He is a little casual. I deliberately dismissed his official position and tried it. I will still use it in the future." Zhao Kuangyin said here, and suddenly thought of a problem. Even his daughter thought so, and outsiders said to the eunuch around him: "You go and pass the orders and restore the ninth prince of Song."

If the official is not good, it will be back immediately, but if you can get the title back first.

"Here."

When the eunuch left, Zhao Kuangyin said, "Look, I will regain his title immediately. Do I seem to be without him?"

"I still don't understand."

"You'd better not ask about this matter. You can't ask about Hebei in the future, and don't let Xianxin ask about it."

"Um."

In fact, Wei Xianxin also had a share in this matter. This person was stingy and greedy. Because Princess Yongqing looked ordinary and was not very nice to her, but Princess Yongqing was young and could not notice it. However, when Zhao Da was alive, Wei Xianxin dared not do too much, and Zhao Kuangyin didn't know. Moreover, this little girl was very obedient, otherwise Zhao Kuangyin would not hurt her. Princess Yongqing asked again: "Father, where is the thing that Xiaojiu gave me?"

She came, and Zhao Kuangyin couldn't bear to take it out. This bottle was not weighing three or four pounds. Occasionally, she opened the bottle cap and dipped it with Queen Song with her fingers. The younger daughter asked for it. Zhao Kuangyin had no choice but to send the eunuch to pour half of the bottle from the bedroom and put it in. Zhao Kuangyin carefully poured a little and put it in the porcelain cup.

Princess Yongqing looked at it in surprise and asked, "What is this? Is this jade? It's not as broken as jade."

I even took a little and put it in my hand to see it. I didn't expect it to be sugar.

“Try it.”

“Can it be eaten?”

“Can eat.”

Princess Yongqing tasted it, her brows jumped and said, "It's so sweet, what is it, Father."

"It's sugar."

"Sugar, what kind of sugar is this?"

"It's still a kind of sucrose."

"Not like this," said Princess Yongqing. There is crystalline sugar, but now this sugar is also backward, and has a heavy viscosity, and is also broken crystal, which cannot be compared. Suddenly, she jumped happily and said, "Father, I understand. Song Jiu said that if you want to make a fortune, it is related to this thing."

"His little thought is that you will send your supervisor to Guangnan to grow sugarcane in large quantities. Once this thing comes out, it will not only be sold in China, but also to foreign countries. Sugarcane will be expensive."

“I’m making sugar, too.”

"That's not possible. This is a national workshop. Private workshops are not allowed to be made. You should send the manager to plant sugarcane. Song Jiu has brought you together and is determined to make money." Zhao Kuangyin finally thought of a serious shortcoming of Song Jiu. There was one thing that Song Jiu still didn't know. He warned that the yamen were crazy about money, so he began to use ships to exchange for divisions and then sell them to Jingdong some pit mines. The officials below were not easy to say, "It's really tiring to pit mines. Some black-hearted mine owners are reluctant to give wages, but they always have to hire people. It's better to harm the people of the Central Plains than to harm the people of the Central Plains. But not to mention these mine owners were originally ill-hearted, and they were the barbarians who bought them with money, so they were even more abused. When it came to this matter tactfully, Zhao Kuangyin didn't know what to do. There were people shortages everywhere.

He flashed this thought and said, "Do you want it? If you want to go to Song Jiu, ask for more, and then give it to your father."

"Huh, why can't you?"

"I am the emperor and have to set an example. You see, my father is so embarrassed to want something, and you are a princess. So, in the future, I have a face for my father. There are indeed many things that are not done well in Hebei, but they are all children, and I don't know much about it. It will hurt the hearts of some old ministers. But neither you nor Xianxin can participate."

"I understand." Princess Yongqing replied in a vague way.

She happily left with the sugar. Zhao Kuangyin called Wang Jien and said, "You went to Hebei to investigate in secret. Song Jiu said he would ask for a lawsuit. Having Liuli and a mirror, the treatment of servants in Hebei has not improved?"

Wang Ji'en went down to visit the police for a day, came back in the evening and said to Zhao Kuangyin: "It's useless, it's still the same as before. Not only the industries of the yamen, but also the industries of other merchants, led by the Hebei atmosphere, did not treat the servants well. Especially at the end of last year, there were many victims coming, and many servants were lured."

Zhao Kuangyin felt deeply disappointed.

But you can't say anything directly. Once you say it, it's time for the time when the map is revealed, and Zhao Pu finally made great contributions, especially when he was in Chuzhou, his father suddenly saw him seriously ill, but at this time he received Chai Rong's order to lead his troops to Yangzhou. Just when he was in a dilemma, Zhao Pu said, General, you give me the order, I will serve him for the general, and then serve medicine every day, which is equivalent to replacing Zhao Kuangyin's filial piety at the end of his life. From then on, Zhao Kuangyin never regarded Zhao Pu as an outsider and became the emperor, and also called Mrs. Zhao Pu's wife and sister-in-law.

Because of this relationship, he couldn't bear to say unpleasant words.

At this time, Zhao Kuangyin was very frightened and had no choice between home and country. But reality had to force him to make a choice.

The food in Guangnan has not arrived yet, and everyone is very unfamiliar with sea boats. Including Song Jiu in the past, he thought it was like a river boat. So he was very surprised to hear that if Hangzhou was smooth sailing, he would arrive in Japan in three days. Then he went to Guangnan to ask about the merchants and further proved that although he went back and forth for one and a half years to go to Dashi, it was not on the road, and it was only three months to go back and forth. If luck was all smooth sailing, two months would be enough. Of course, that was unlikely. The rest of the time was waiting for the monsoon.

So I knew that Guangnan would transport grain, but I thought that at least a few months later, I would receive timely relief in the provinces near the capital. Caozhou was in the lower reaches of the Wuzhang River. Due to the ineffective relief, people began to starve to death. In order to get some food, some people had to sell their children and daughters.

Officials in Caozhou did not dare to hide it and reported Caozhou's embarrassment to the court.

Zhao Kuangyin had no choice but to transfer 20,000 stones of rice from the nervous capital granary to save him first.

The book Zuolang Lu Guangfan was also used as the grain and material envoy in Beijing, and the Taipu Temple Chief Zhao Juchuan was used as the grain and material envoy in Xijing, and transported the grain from the west to the capital.

If you don’t look seriously, you just think that the court is trying to transport grain from all directions to the capital and then transfer it to the disaster area. If you seriously link the past and future things, you will realize a terrible truth.

Zhao Kuangyin also felt tired at this time.

You are not afraid of fighting, but you must have a sense of justice when fighting.

So I hit it again.

He found a random Jikou and demoted Li Chongju from Jiedu to General of the Left Guard.

Say nothing.

But Zhao Pu, you are a smart person and you should understand. And when you reach this point, I will not dismiss Chu Zhaofu, so you can stop. At this time, Zhao Kuangyin was very powerless. Brother Zhao, are you the emperor or I the emperor?

...

A spring rain in early spring came down, and He said worriedly in the mansion: "Official, Your Majesty demoted his in-laws again."

"What are you worried about? As long as I am loyal to Your Majesty, there will be no trouble," Zhao Pu said. Obviously, He did not understand the meaning of his words. Why did he dare to do this? Zhao Kuangyin could be less than Li Chongju, but he could not be less. Zhao Dezhao became older, and Zhao Defang gradually grew up. In order to pave the way for his son to take over, there must be someone in the court who can control Zhao Kuangyi. Who can control Zhao Kuangyi except himself? It's a pity that the stupid woman is incompetent and has not yet established a good relationship with the queen. Otherwise, the little queen in the palace would say good things and let the emperor establish Zhao Dezhao, rather than his youngest son Zhao Defang, the emperor must take Zhao Kuangyi down.

But Zhao Kuangyi's strange low-keyness made Zhao Pu very uneasy.

He ignored his wife and walked around the house. The emperor was not afraid. As long as he called his wife a sister-in-law for a day, he could stay in this position. What he was worried about was Kaifeng Mansion.

After thinking about it, his eyes suddenly lit up and he stared at the southwest. He seemed to be drizzling in the middle of the drizzle. He saw a place where there was a state called Fangzhou. There was a family living in Fangzhou, a widow, a young man who had just reached the age of throne, his wife, two concubines, and six sons.

He thought to himself that this little emperor is old, but the generals of the Chai family are not old yet. As long as you do it yourself, I believe Your Majesty will like it. When he dies, his uncle will be panicked or cause trouble. So what will the emperor think?

In his heart, he was not happy with the Chai family. Liu Ci valued his talents back then and recommended him to Chai Rong. When Chai Rong saw that he was a lame man, he was very disliked. He was like sending beggars to the most dangerous front line Chuzhou.
