Empress Dowager Song was a little angry: "I thought that this little lady was just a spring heart, at a young age, which little lady hasn't read a few scripts?" I didn't think about what kind of husband I would marry in the future, Wen Niang is like this, but she is just uncomfortable, she just said it, but she didn't expect that she was completely confused, this is not like it at all, it is just going crazy, and you have to want to get it to stop. ”

said, took Zhao Defang's hand and patted it: "You are right to do this, such a stubborn temperament, you really can't take it into the house, today is for you to think, Ming'er maybe for herself, she can harm Wanniang's mother and son, people, don't be afraid of persistence, I'm afraid that I won't be able to get out of the horns again, Wanniang has been scared?" ”

Zhao Defang nodded hurriedly: "I'm a little scared, Wanniang has always been kind-hearted, I never thought that someone would commit suicide at the door of our house, anxious and angry, yesterday I had some fetal gas, fortunately, Doctor Wang has good medical skills, however, the doctor also said that Wanniang needs to recuperate in bed." ”

"It's time to recuperate for a few days, and you should give more orders about the affairs in your house, and don't let Wanniang hear such things again." Empress Dowager Song hurriedly said: "The Gao family, although it has looked calmer in the past two days, but the temperament of the little lady of the Gao family, maybe she is holding back some big moves, you have to be careful, you can't scare Wan Niang." ”

Zhao Defang nodded hurriedly in response, chatted with the Empress Dowager Song a few more words, and then got up and went to the palace in front. The official family was looking at the excerpts, and when they heard that Zhao Defang was coming, they hurriedly announced that she had come in, and said with a smile as soon as they met: "The fourth brother is not shallow." ”

Zhao Defang arched his hand and smiled bitterly: "Brother Huang, don't make fun of me, I can't afford such a glamorous blessing, the Gao family, I have to ask the royal brother to help me vent my anger, just cold Lord Gao for two days, and I don't need to move too much." ”

Zhao Dezhao nodded, and said with a smile: "I really don't want to welcome another side concubine?" It's not that I said, there are too few people in your house, the prince of the palace, just a concubine, it looks pitiful, it is estimated that you are frightened by the little lady of the Gao family, why don't I choose two gentle ones for you? I heard that the little lady of the Li family is as beautiful as a flower, gentle as water, smiles without showing her teeth, and never speaks loudly. ”

Zhao Defang waved his hand and looked at Zhao Dezhao helplessly: "Second brother, don't make fun of me, in my life, I only need Wanniang, there are not many people, and it is enough to be intimate." She gave birth to children for me, took care of the back house for me, and gave me advice, and I didn't want to disappoint her. If you win the hearts of the people, you have to repay them with the hearts of the people, otherwise, sooner or later you will lose this heart, if the royal brother is for my good, I must not mention such words again. ”

Zhao Dezhao nodded at him lightly, and did not continue the topic: "Seeing March, what are your plans for that academy?" ”

"I'm going to have a spring outing." Zhao Defang looked at Zhao Dezhao with some doubts: "Is there something wrong with the imperial brother?" ”

"That's right, I plan to have people renovate the history of the Tang Dynasty. Some of the people in the court are not enough. Zhao Dezhao leaned back, but whoever is an emperor, there is no one who does not want to leave his name in the history books, and everything is indispensable for civil and martial arts. Zhao Dezhao is regarded as a king, in terms of martial arts, Zhao Kuangyin has basically done almost everything when he is there, and the wars after Zhao Dezhao succeeded to the throne are only a few times, not small but not big. Therefore, he has to work cultural governance.

This cultural rule is divided into two aspects, one is the people's living standards, and the other is two words, economy. The second is the cultural process dù, which is also two words, education. The former Zhao Dezhao has already done almost everything, and he has begun to consider the latter. Moreover, Yi Dai repaired history, Shengshi repaired books, Zhao Kuangyin didn't have time at that time, Zhao Dezhao had to inherit this matter, first repair history and then repair books.

"Brother Huang plans to select a few people in my academy to revise history books?" Zhao Defang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are all the adults in the Ministry of Rites willing?" ”

This thing is done well, but it can also be famous for eternity, who would agree to divide this credit? Can a book with the name of one person and the name of a large group of people have the same effect?

What's more, there are a lot of Hanlin bachelors in the court, from the second grade to the seventh grade, adding up to hundreds of people, let these people not use them, to use a few hairy boys from the academy, the court = people who have been trained to be the same as fritters, will agree?

"What about this, it doesn't matter if they agree or not, I'll only give you three places." Zhao Dezhao stretched out his hand, there are not always some old faces standing in the court, and new people have to come in from time to time, so that those who are waiting for the elderly will feel the pressure, and they will work harder.

"I will give a holy decree when I go back, there are three places in your academy, five names on the Guozijian side, this is eight, and the remaining two will be fought for by other colleges, how to compete for it, you bring me a charter, and the matter will be handed over to you." Zhao Dezhao said quickly, without waiting for Zhao Defang to refuse: "In order to prevent people from saying that you are abusing your power for personal gain, if you take out the rules of the competition, the people from your academy will also have to participate, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Therefore, these three places are not actually given, but have to be fought for by the students of the college themselves. If you can't get it, there are still three places, but you have to use other excuses, maybe the places will be allocated to the husband, not the students.

Zhao Defang's mind turned around a few times, this matter is actually more beneficial than bad for the academy, and even, there are almost no disadvantages. Even if it loses in the competition, the academy will be silent for a year or two at most, and it will be enough to wash it up again in the next imperial examination, but if it has the upper hand in the competition, it will be a great thing.

"Okay, Brother Huang is waiting for me to fold, when will you prepare?" Zhao Defang asked, Zhao Dezhao smiled and touched his chin: "Start repairing the book next spring, so you have to prepare it early, I have full authority to you, the place to repair the book, the candidate for the book, and the materials when the book is repaired, all of which are responsible for you, how about it?" ”

Zhao Defang smiled bitterly: "I say no, will the imperial brother let me go?" ”

Zhao Dezhao shook his head with a smile, and Zhao Defang had no choice but to wipe his face and nod: "Okay, leave this matter to me, the imperial brother just waits for my news." But we also have to say in advance, since this matter is all handed over to me to be responsible, then what do I need, the imperial brother must agree to give it, what do I do in the middle, the imperial brother is not allowed to interfere, what do you think? ”

Zhao Dezhao touched his chin and thought about it, and tapped the table: "Then it's decided." ”

After talking about business, Zhao Defang said goodbye and left the palace. Talking about making a competition, in a word, in fact, it is not a simple matter, you have to set the time, the venue, the content, you have to send someone to publicize the notice, you have to consider all kinds of factors, and I don't know if you can get a charter in a month.

Jiao Wanwan woke up at noon, asked the maid next to her, and knew that Zhao Defang was in the study, so she didn't bother, let someone take a soft cushion and put it on the ground, do it cross-legged, let the nurse protect her on the other side, and began to walk because of the lotus.

"Come on, come on, come to my mother's place, and give you a snack."

"There's a rattle, do you want it?"

"Mother's kiss?"

Hua Rui opened her little hand, smiled and rushed towards Jiao Wanwan, walked two steps, her body was unstable, she sat on the ground with a pop, but she didn't cry, her body twisted, she simply climbed two steps forward, approached Jiao Wanwan, was picked up and kissed twice.

"Princess Niangniang, don't be in such a hurry, Xiao Langjun will be able to walk when he is three or four years old." The nurse cautiously persuaded on the side: "It's too early to learn." ”

Jiao Wanwan frowned, is it too early to be a year old? In my last life, I saw some children who began to learn to walk at □□ months. Besides, the usual calves are also very energetic, so they should be learning to walk, right?

"It's okay, he wants to learn himself." Jiao Wanwan thought about it, waved her hand, and didn't let the nurse continue to talk, it's a big deal that Doctor Ming'er came to ask the doctor. After walking for a while, Hua Rui herself was tired, and she was lying in Jiao Wanwan's arms and was reluctant to come out.

"Okay, then let's have lunch and call Daddy to come along, okay?" Jiao Wanwan said with a smile, and wanted to hug the maid and get up, but Ruyi hurriedly stopped: "Princess Niangniang, let the maid come?" ”

Jiao Wanwan thought about it, but still handed it over. rushed all the way to the study, and saw that the window was open from a distance, Zhao Defang was sitting at the desk writing and drawing, Jiao Wanwan was not in a hurry to make a sound, but leaned in front of the window and stared at Zhao Defang with a smile.

Zhao Defang wrote seriously, and didn't notice Jiao Wanwan at first, but when she found that there was an extra shadow on the table, she looked up and couldn't help but smile: "Why are you here?" Have you eaten in the morning? Hungry or not? ”

Jiao Wanwan pouted: "You and I are a cocoon, as soon as we meet, I will first ask if I am hungry, it is already noon, which breakfast shall I eat?" But you, since you came out of the palace, you have been busy for most of the day, are you tired? ”

Zhao Defang shook his head, put the brush down, got up, went out of the door, first raised his hand and pinched the cocoon, took the person over and hugged him, and then turned around to greet Jiao Wanwan: "I'm really tired, let's go have some dinner?" What's for lunch? ”

"It's all what you like to eat, and there are things I like to eat, but there's nothing you like to eat." Jiao Wanwan said with a smile, and Zhao Defang, who was amused, couldn't help laughing: "If you can understand, you should say that you, the mother, don't like him." ”

"In this world, my second favorite is him, and it's for his good not to let him eat more." Jiao Wanwan said with a smile, Zhao Defang turned his head and raised his eyebrows to look at him: "The second favorite is the cocoon?" Who's your first favorite? ”

Jiao Wanwan blinked: "Do you still need to ask?" You don't know it yourself? ”

Zhao Defang pretended to be stupid: "Don't you say how I know, is it someone I know?" Who is it? What does it look like, and how old is it? What about the property? ”

"Looks, handsome and chic, about the same age as me, not to mention the wealth of the country, but also able to support his wife and children." Jiao Wanwan also joked with Zhao Defang: "Sixty percent of the little ladies in the capital like him, whether they are married or not, they will blush when they see him." ”

Zhao Defang made a surprised look: "There is such a character in the capital? Why have I never heard of it? ”

"Because you're too modest." Jiao Wan said with a smile: "They all say modesty...... Ahem, okay, now that the puzzle is revealed, my favorite person is my husband, my husband, my husband, my lover, are you very touched? ”

Zhao Defang savored the word lover, and also smiled: "You are also my lover, my favorite is also you." ”

It was too unexpected, Jiao Wanwan didn't react, Zhao Defang in the past, that was a very gentleman, he never said such explicit love words, even if he wanted to express his heart, it was mostly twists and turns, so that people could only understand it after thinking about it three or four times, or just as a joke.

Well, this time as a joke again?

Without waiting for Jiao Wanwan to be frustrated, Zhao Defang raised her hand and rubbed her head: "We are each other's favorite people, and we are also each other's most important talents. ”

Jiao Wanwan nodded stunnedly: "Why did you suddenly open up?" ”

"Because you like to hear it." Zhao Defang continued to walk forward with the child in her arms, Jiao Wanwan hurriedly followed, and asked with a smile: "Because I like to listen, so you have to say?" Then I still like many, many things, do you want to give them to me? ”

Zhao Defang nodded seriously: "Yes, as long as you like it, as long as I can do it, I will give it to you." ”

It's simply the best love sentence in the world, the effect is equivalent to buying, buying, no, it should be said, it is more sincere than buying, buying, buying, and giving you the most happiness and the greatest happiness within my ability. Listening to such a sentence, you can be happy for at least a month.

"I like it when you accompany me shopping."

"Okay, I'll go shopping in the afternoon."

"I like you to accompany me to stay in Zhuangzi for a few days."

"Okay, I'll go to Zhuangzi tomorrow to stay for a few days, which Zhuangzi do you want to go to? Hot Springs Zhuangzi or Farmstead? ”

"I like to buy things from overseas."

"Okay, I'll open a shop for you tomorrow, specializing in buying things from overseas, and send them to you two or three times a month."

Jiao Wanwan suddenly drooled a little, potatoes or something, it is too common in modern times, and she is tired of eating, but when she arrived in the Great Song Dynasty, she couldn't eat it, and suddenly she was nostalgic. I used to be able to hold back, but now I don't know if I'm too hungry for pregnancy, I miss potato stew, tomato and eggs, tender corn, and sweet potato porridge.

"Is the shop really going to open?" Jiao Wanwan stopped joking, asked with a stern face, and Zhao Defang nodded: "That's natural, our family also has a lot of money, even if it loses money, it can be afforded, I'll find you a shopkeeper and a few guys when I go back, and I will be able to open the door immediately." ”

Anyway, if you buy something, you don't need to prepare the supply of goods, you just need to prepare money.

"Not only overseas, but also from other places." Jiao Wan said hurriedly, and Zhao Defang nodded in response.

Walking all the way, when he arrived at the main hall, the meal had been arranged, and he finally found a chance to appear, pushing Zhao Defang's face to the food he liked, and the only words he knew now were except for his father and grandmother, that is, to eat and eat, this and that, to want.

Zhao Defang was very patient, and after a meal, he patronized and fed the herbs. Jiao Wanwan felt sorry for her husband Jun, and hurriedly put all the meals he liked into the bowl, and sighed: "Grow up quickly, you can help take care of your younger brothers and sisters when you grow up." ”

Zhao Defang chuckled, didn't speak, and buried his head in hard work.

In the afternoon, I really took the time to accompany Jiao Wanwan to the street for a turn, but the way I went shopping today was different from the past. In the past, when Jiao Wanwan went out, she changed into ordinary clothes, wore inconspicuous jewelry, and pretended to be an ordinary person.

Today, he couldn't resist Zhao Defang, so he had to wear clothes that he knew were particularly expensive at a glance, and he went out extravagantly. When she arrived at the door of the store, she didn't get out of the car and go in directly, but Ruyi and Ping'an went to clear the field first, and there were no outsiders, so Jiao Wanwan could help Zhao Defang's arm down.

"Shopping like this, I always feel that it's a little too public, does it have to be like this?" Seeing that the shopkeeper went down with the tray, Jiao Wanwan hurriedly talked to Zhao Defang beside her, Zhao Defang waved his hand: "You came here in the past, did the things that the shopkeeper let you see were all brought out of the counter?" ”

Jiao Wanwan nodded, and Zhao Defang nodded downstairs again: "What is served now is all the boutique products in the store, and there is only one of each, or only one set." ”

Jiao Wanwan blinked, she had also bought jewelry in this kind of shop before, but although she couldn't identify it, she would also compare, and the difference between the one she bought and the queen mother's reward could be seen, so she just went shopping in the future and didn't buy much.

It's negligent, there is such a ...... Hidden conditions for differential treatment.

It's probably because the psychology of the little citizens has not been reversed, and I really think that I am an ordinary person, so I never thought that this kind of good thing might be hidden? Of course, Jiao Wanwan thought very strictly, and it may be because those shopkeepers saw that they didn't want to spend money, so they didn't want to take out good things, so as not to grab them themselves.

Soon the shopkeeper came with a tray with two boxes on it, and when they opened, it was really a set of jewelry, one box contained two bracelets, and the other box contained a necklace. Green, jade, Jiao Wanwan can't see the variety, but just look at the color and transparency to know, absolutely good things.

"If the prince and the princess like it, the small one will be sold to the two of you at a loss, and the two of you will be treated as a small one, and the two of you will give the small shop pù to publicize its reputation." The shopkeeper said with a smile, stretched out his finger and gestured: "Only 12,000." ”

Jiao Wanwan gasped, two notebooks for a penny, one tael of silver for consistent money, consistent money for seven hundred and seventy-seven copper plates, ten thousand twelve, how many copper plates are there? How many buns can you sell?

"It's too expensive." Jiao Wanwan lowered her voice and said to Zhao Defang, Zhao Defang rubbed her hair with a smile: "As long as you like it." ”

I like it, I like it, Jiao Wanwan looks at the bracelet, and then at the necklace, the jewelry in the jewelry box, it seems that she has worn it, and she hasn't bought a new one for a long time, although the one sent from the palace is also good-looking, but this one is better-looking.

"If the princess likes it, then ......" The shopkeeper was very distressed, gritted his teeth and hesitated for a long time before stretching out his hand: "Ten in one, it really can't be less, this thing is the treasure of my town store, and the whole piece of jade will be 10,000 when I buy it back, and then I asked the master to carve, and I really lost money in selling." ”

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand to cover his chest: "I just ask the princess to say that she bought it in my shop when others inquire in the future." ”

Jiao Wanwan also stretched out her finger: "Don't say much, 10,000 taels, if you want to sell it, we will buy it, if you don't want to, forget it." It just so happens that she prefers steamed buns, so it's better to go back and eat two fewer buns a day, and I don't know if I can save these 10,000 taels for the rest of my life.

If you think about the money that the college earns, it's only a few hundred taels a year. Think about the playground again, think about Xinyuan again, hey, I seem to be a rich man, the sum of these two places is thirty or forty thousand every year! However, I still can't buy a few pieces of jewelry.

The shopkeeper's sad face hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth, covered the box, and pushed it in front of Jiao Wanwan: "Okay, then 10,000 taels, the princess must remember to help the little publicity, the things in our shop are all good things, they are absolutely genuine, do you want to see anything else?" Some time ago, I just bought a batch of pearls, which are big and round, and they are all of the highest grade! ”

Jiao Wanwan hurriedly waved her hand, and Zhao Defang nodded in agreement: "Take it and take a look." ”

When the shopkeeper went out, he said: "If you like it, buy some, go back whether it is to make jewelry or buttons or pearl powder, it is always useful, it is difficult to come out, buy what you like, don't think about saving money, our family has money." ”

Jiao Wanwan thought about it, it seems that there is indeed no shortage of money, although Zhao Defang does not have much money, and the college does not make much money, but Zhao Kuangyin also gave a lot of good things when he was there, as well as the private room of the Empress Dowager Song, and the harvest of Zhuangzi and the shop, as well as the filial piety of the people below.

Guarding the gold mountain, he still thinks that he can only afford to buy steamed buns. It's not that it's bad to slam the door, it's just that it seems to be a little unimposing. Bargaining is bargaining, and you can't let people be fools and throw money out in vain, but you can be cautious and too timid, and it will be a bit embarrassing.

As soon as she figured it out, Jiao Wanwan started the journey of buying, buying, buying, fortunately, Zhao Defang brought enough silver today. However, because Zhao Defang is here, there are not many things to buy, and Zhao Defang's vision is rarely fancied.

But each piece is a fine product, and on this afternoon, almost 100,000 taels of silver were spent.

When I bought it, I felt that I was radiant, and when I came back and counted the money, Jiao Wanwan was almost lying down, several years of hard money, the dowry for my son to marry my daughter-in-law, and the dowry for my daughter's marriage.

"It's okay, I'll earn it back." Seeing her like that is really pitiful, but also a little cute, Zhao Defang smiled and comforted: "Besides, jade is a thing that is worth it if it is put for a long time, and it is not a loss." ”

Jiao Wanwan pouted, forget it, don't charter the venue in the future, I always feel a little wronged.

"What's for dinner?" Anyway, I have already bought it, Jiao Wanwan has a big heart, and the pain in the flesh is only a moment of effort, and when I came back to my senses, I felt that I couldn't stand the hunger, so I hurriedly called Ruyi and asked, and asked the nurse: "Where is the lotus?" Have you eaten it? ”

"At lunchtime, the prince ordered the dinner to be lighter, and Zhuangzi sent some wild vegetables, and the princess and mother should try it, but it is fresh." Ruyi said with a smile, and the nurse also hugged the lotus root, and carefully described the activities of the afternoon lotus.

After eating, Jiao Wanwan also fell asleep, Jiao Wanwan wandered around for an afternoon, and she didn't have much energy, so she simply washed and slept, maybe she could dream of a treasure at night?
