Chapter 75 Risk Avoidance
Only a few days after the Dragon Boat Festival, the capital ushered in a light rain, which also marked the official arrival of the rainy season.
After breakfast, the children untied the colorful thread that they wore on their hands and threw it into the rain, which is also a custom handed down from ancient times.
As soon as half past seven arrived, the bell rang on time. The children rushed to the classroom. Now the first and second periods of each day are Shuyun's classes. Although the course was reduced from four to two, the duration was increased from 40 minutes to one hour. Mathematics plus geometry, physics plus chemistry. Every week, Shuyun always finds some time to give her children a music lesson. And Shuyun is not rigid in class, and always takes the children to do some interesting little experiments, so the children like to listen to Shuyun's classes very much. Therefore, subtly, the unique ideological concepts and thinking patterns of this group of children are also gradually formed.
And when Shuyun was in class, no one except the students could be disturbed, including the cadres sent by Kangxi. Here in Shuyun, this is an iron law.
After class, Shuyun just returned to the room, and before she could sit down, Lao Kang came. Now Lao Kang basically comes to Shuyun once a month, and he stays for one or two days each time. But today, it rained and came, which still surprised Shuyun.
Looking at Lao Kang, who was wet on his body, Shuyun asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty, why are you here at this time?" ”
Lao Kang took off his coat and said, "Well, the rainy season has begun, and we will start to be busy with river affairs in two days, and if we don't come now, I'm afraid there won't be time for these two months." You're pregnant again. I can't rest assured, so I'm going to come and see it. By the way, I will also send you the midwife. ”
Shuyun went to the bathroom and got a large towel and handed it to him. said, "With so many people surrounding the front and back all day long, what's so worrying." Then I saw that the hem of Lao Kang's clothes was still dripping with water. Then he asked, "Why are you so wet?" Did you come on horseback? ”
"Well, the carriage is too slow." Then Lao Kang handed the towel to Shuyun and motioned for her to help wipe her hair. Then he said, "You little conscienceless, I care about you, and you still complain?" ”
Shuyun helped him wipe the shiny door of his head, and said, "How can I complain, I just don't want to see you come in such weather, what if you catch a cold." ”
Seeing that no matter how Lao Kang wiped his body, he was not dry. Shuyun said, "Don't wipe it." I'll put you in the bathwater, you take a hot shower first, and then change into dry clothes. ”
When Lao Kang entered the bathroom, Shuyun asked Mama Gu to make a bowl of egg noodle soup. Then he instructed Xiao Guizi to take care of Lao Kang's entourage.
When Lao Kang came out of the bathroom, the hot egg noodle soup was ready, and Qingsi was coming in. Lao Kang was really hungry, riding a horse in the rain, cold and tired, especially exerting physical strength. A large bowl of soup with water. They were all eaten by Lao Kang's snorting. Seeing that Lao Kang was eating sweetly, Shuyun also had an appetite, so he asked Qingsi to bring a small bowl and ate it next.
looked at Lao Kang and shook his head: "You." No matter how old a person is, he is still like a child, and he knows how to join in the fun. ”
Ate noodle soup. The two came to the tea room as usual and brewed kung fu tea.
Kangxi immediately asked about the wheat harvest: "Shuyun." I heard that the wheat on Zhuangzi is almost eight stones per mu on average? ”
Shuyun mixed a small portion of spatially optimized seeds into the wheat seed to increase the yield. But Shuyun didn't dare to use all the space seeds now. There is a step-by-step process for everything. What is a matter of course, you have to let people naturally and gradually accept and convince them. In the imperial court, up to Lao Kang, down to the officials of various ministries, it is the essence of the human spirit, if all are replaced by space seeds, then an acre of land will be almost 20 stone wheat, in the current era when an average of 3 or 4 stones can be harvested per acre, this number is unimaginable, and can even be described as "terrifying". If the output is increased so much at once, everyone will be happy and no one will have some other associations. Even if you use this to make some "articles" and say strange things, such as "Does this woman use some magic methods, or is it all ordinary land, how can the seeds she provides have such a high yield?" By the way, I will bring out something like "deceive the king". That's more than worth the loss.
Some people will say, it's not simple, can Shuyun tell them about "hybridization"?
Don't be stupid, people just firmly believe that "abnormality is a demon", "what 'hybrid' is not 'hybrid', I have never heard of it, it has been like this for thousands of years, how can you have changed completely." "People nowadays are very old-fashioned and ignorant, unlike the era of emancipation in later generations, people have become accustomed to accepting new things. Now even if people know that the Tao is right, but they just don't admit it, what can you do? Most of the scholars and doctors of the ruling class are dedicated to fooling the people, and they don't care whether the people are well fed or not, as long as they don't shake their rule.
And don't forget that there is also a saying called "three people become tigers", there are many people who say it, and the fake has come true, or where are there so many myths and folklore. Besides, who can guarantee that these courtiers will not be in a line with the women of the harem for the benefit of various small groups. Seize the opportunity and take the opportunity to defeat Shuyun. Political disputes, party and government, have always been very cruel. By then, the established facts have been created, and it is not so easy for Kangxi to come forward and correct Shuyun's name.
Some people will ask, is there anything that the emperor can't do? What's wrong with the emperor, most of the time the emperor is balancing interests, and the opinions of some powerful ministers and clans must also be taken into account. Moreover, now the three feudatories and Taiwan have not been pacified, and Jungger has not been conquest, and Kangxi's prestige has not yet reached the height of the future. Even if Kangxi can respond to every call like in his later years, there are still things that need to be taken into account, and the issue of enthronement is the best example.
When the time comes, Shuyun will not only make contributions, but also become an abandoned son who needs to be abandoned. So there are some things that can't be completely counted on Kangxi's protection.
Besides, people's hope should be given little by little, which will give them hope and a sense of accomplishment. Shuyun is just a person, just a woman with a little talent and a little righteousness, not a god. If on the other hand, everyone regards Shuyun as a god, then what do you want Lao Kang, the "Son of Heaven", to do?
Besides, the food problem is not too urgent now. Now there are few people in the land, although the Manchu circle occupies a lot of land, but after all, the territory of the Qing Dynasty is large, and the country is in the stage of recuperation, and the imperial court encourages farming, so as long as it is not in a war-torn area, if you are willing to work, not to mention how good you eat, you can still be full.
So Shuyun said to Kangxi what she had thought out in advance, "Your Majesty, the yield has increased, but it is still in the experimental stage, and the situation of the seeds is not stable." This is also with the help of the Keju and the torturers you sent, so the results will be produced so quickly. Not to mention that I thought they were useless, but I didn't expect them to be a great help, alas, I really can't underestimate people. ”
Kangxi was happy, and he could only say that Shuyun's sycophant was level. It seems to be praising the two lifters, but in fact, it is praising Lao Kanghui without a trace, and he also divides the credit, so the risks that Shuyun may take in the future are also reduced.
Lao Kang said proudly, "Hehe, is there still a fault with the person I picked?" These two guys didn't tell me what was going on, they told me that the yield of wheat per mu had increased to eight stones, but there was still another experiment, please don't worry, give you some time, maybe this yield can increase in two years. That's why I didn't rush over. What the hell is going on, you tell me, and I can reward it as I see fit. ”
Shuyun smiled lightly, "Well, those plants used for breeding are the two gentlemen who have worked hard to find them, they have to observe the growth of wheat every day, and from time to time to participate in the compilation of the "Kangxi Dictionary". However, the two gentlemen are still very calm and solid, and although they have achievements, they are not in a hurry to ask you for credit when they are finally determined. And it's really rare to be in a hurry to do anything, and to work steadily. I was impressed just by looking at it. ”
Kangxi is very happy now, "You, just give me two big fat boys obediently, leave anything to them to do, take your time, I'm not in a hurry." ”
Shuyun took the opportunity to smile and said, "With two gentlemen here, I don't have to do anything, it's so happy." Then Shuyun glanced at Lao Kang again, and said, "But I don't like my son, it's too naughty, it's enough to look at those boys on Zhuangzi all day long." It would be nice if they could give birth to daughters, the two are exactly the same, little girls like pink carved jade snow dolls, and when the time comes, they will definitely be liked if they are dressed beautifully. It's so much fun to think about. Shuyun had a look of longing on her face.
Seeing this, Lao Kang shook his head and smiled. He tapped Shuyun's forehead with his finger again, and said, "You, don't talk about it, you don't have big ambitions, everyone wants a son, but you like girls." Besides, it's up to you to decide what to do in this life? ”
Shuyun didn't speak, just shook her head and giggled there.
Lao Kang was even more relieved to see Shuyun like this. Originally, he always felt a little uncomfortable about Shuyun so much about himself, but now he feels that among all his women, only Shuyun is the most caring. It's not unfortunate that he likes and cares about Shuyun so much.
So he got up and sat down on Shuyun's side, and gently hugged Shuyun into his arms. began to ask about Shuyun's body and the condition of the babies.
Although Shuyun is now bloated, her skin is becoming more and more delicate and smooth, and there are no pregnancy spots on her face. And the milky aroma on the body is even stronger. So when lying in bed at night, Lao Kang still couldn't hold it, and the two staged a lingering scenery again
Early the next morning, Li Dequan came to report to Kangxi, and then Kangxi, who was originally very happy, immediately sank his face. Shuyun, who was on the side, stroked her high bulging abdomen~ It's time to do something more! ~
