Although the city of Tokyo experienced a heavy snowfall this year, the snow did not reduce the enthusiasm of the people, but instead made it a good time for the snow to be celebrated, New Year's Day and New Year's Day are the most celebrated days of the year, and the most important of all festivals.

The back garden of the palace is naturally very joyful, Zhao Zhen took the children to shovel snow and build snowmen, and even built them an Eskimo Xiaoice House with his own hands.

The science is simple, it takes advantage of the ice's low thermal conductivity to keep the heat in the igloo.

Wang Yuyan and Yang Caiwei were puzzled by Zhao Zhen's practice of building an igloo, in their opinion, ice only makes people colder, how can it make people warm? The official also said that a stove could be put in it, which is simply impossible!

But what the official family said was so sure, and insisted on making an igloo by themselves, and let the children spend the night in it, Wang Yuyan and others knew that the official family would never joke about the health of the children, so they had to try it when they were skeptical.

Zhao Zhencai didn't care so much, and took the children to make ice bricks on the ground, and Sancai was about to step forward to help, but he pushed him away and said, "You want to deprive me of the joy of playing with the emperor's heirs?" ”

Sancai looked at the princess and the second prince with a bad face and said with a smile: "The slave doesn't dare, it's just this kind of rough work......"

Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said: "My body is very good, I don't need to interfere with the waiter, bring the bucket car I made for Yun'er, and I will use it later." ”

The so-called bucket car is actually a big toy made by Zhao Zhen for his son using the pulley and lever principle of the crane in later generations, but it is the most suitable for carrying ice bricks.

Choosing a large open space facing the sun, Zhao Zhen took the children to quickly start making ice bricks, and with the efforts of the four of them, a large number of ice bricks with clear operations were made in a while.

After laying the foundation, the rest is much simpler, Zhao Zhen took the children to carry the ice bricks, starting from the bottom layer with each superimposed circle, shrinking inward a little, the circle became smaller and smaller, and finally formed a closed hemispherical dome.

Zhao Zhen used a sharp long knife to open a small window on the south side, and a piece of snow sticking out of the shape of a board was added above the small window, which could not only block the snowflakes from hitting the window, but also refract the sun's rays, so that it could shine directly into the room, rather than on the large snow bricks on the north side.

Because the sun is low in winter, the morning light sometimes shines obliquely from the southern horizon, so the large snowboard above the window acts as a refractor, allowing the sun to illuminate the house without the need for candles or the like.

The crystal clear igloo shines dazzlingly in the sun, like the world in the call, the children are jumping and jumping happily around the igloo, Zhao Zhen explained the principle, and spread it with a blanket, and then put a warm copper stove inside it has become a paradise for children......

Wang Yuyan entered the igloo without believing in evil, and the warm feeling instantly made her mouth close in surprise: "This is really amazing, I didn't expect the room made of ice and snow to be so warm, not colder than in the hall at all." ”

Zhao Zhen smiled: "Of course, the so-called Gewu is to figure out the truth of everything and use it for your own use, Zhao Xu, Zhao Yun, Zhao Ling'er, can the three of you remember?!" ”

The three children raised their red faces and said in unison: "Children remember the Emperor's Divine Message!" ”

Sending the three children to play in the igloo, Zhao Zhen stood on the rockery in the back garden and looked at the cooking smoke floating in the city and sighed slightly: "In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu." Thousands of households always replace the new peach with the old one. ”

Sancai quickly wrote down the poems and praised: "This is a masterpiece of the official family, good poetry, good poetry!" ”

Wang Yuyan and Yang Caiwei are familiar with the subset of scriptures and history, and they are also very insightful about poetry...... Good mood, good poetry...... The poetry of the official family has been refined again! ”

Being worshiped by one's own woman is a pretty beautiful thing, and Zhao Zhen is no exception, not to mention that his woman's pink neck and peach cheeks are as beautiful as a fairy? But this poem was not written by himself after all, and Zhao Zhen was embarrassed to show off with a shy face, and slightly interrupted: "It's just an occasional feeling, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, after midnight is the new year, tonight our family will go to the Xuande Building, how about keeping the New Year with the people of the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

Have fun with the people!

Of course, this is the most joyful thing for Wang Yuyan and others, Wang Yuyan and Yang Caiwei like this feeling of being respected, but Vera simply likes this kind of warmth and happiness.

Of course, it is not easy for the emperor to have fun with the people, and the three talents have to prepare entertainment programs, and they have to inform the courtiers, even the emperor and the people keep the New Year, how can the courtiers not be there?

The Spring Festival of the Great Song Dynasty is not ordinary, Zhao Zhen's feelings in recent years made him find that the Spring Festival of the Great Song Dynasty is more humane than later generations, encountering the heavy snow like a few days ago, the imperial court considers that it is not easy for the small people, and usually gives relief funds to the poor in the capital, and at the same time exempts the rent of people who rent public housing for three days, and Zhao Zhen himself paid for the exemption for a whole month, so that the people shouted for the mercy of the officials.

This is just Zhao Zhen's emperor's good deeds, in this era is very pursued the greater the wealth, the greater the responsibility, Zhao Zhen saw the charity is alive in front of him, in the event of heavy snow, some rich families will be along the door to inspect the lonely and difficult people's homes, in the night with broken gold and silver or money will be inserted in the crack of the door, to Zhou Qi's suffering, or send the henchman, with silver chiseled into one or two, half a tael, wrapped in paper, late at night to pick the poor in the window or in the crack of the door to send into the Jiren.

When the recipients got up the next morning, they received it as if they had fallen from heaven, thinking that it was a sudden manifestation of God, but they did not know which kind-hearted person had actually sent mercy.

This kind of charity that does good deeds without leaving a name is much more cordial than those high-profile charities, and it is the virtue of a gentleman to give favors without seeking any benefits or returns.

At night, the city of Tokyo is the most exciting, all kinds of lanterns are vivid, some even march on horse-drawn carriages, the people around follow the cheers, a lively and extraordinary, today the small merchants and vendors in Tokyo City will not be subject to any restrictions, except for the main road to set up stalls at will!

There is also an annual Oiran selection, but the winner will not be rewarded by Zhao Zhen, but Wang Yuyan, the mother of the country, is self-proclaimed, although not as good as the emperor, but by the reward of the queen of the world, the identity of the Oiran is finalized, and it will be easy to be good in the future, and no one will say anything nonsense.

Everyone is carnival, of course, the courtiers are no exception, Zhao Zhen gave a banquet on the Xuande Tower, regardless of the size of the official position, you can go to the banquet, up to the court, down to the Kaifeng Mansion judge, you can drink the banquet and this, but the place where you do it is not the same, and you still have to have dignity and humility......

Zhao Zhen sat at the top of the banquet, this table was full of ministers from the two governments and three divisions, and the officials' daughters were naturally handed over to the queen Wang Yuyan and the concubine Yang Caiwei to entertain, and the huge stove made everyone take off their heavy cotton clothes.

Zhao Zhen not only kept the New Year with the people this time, but also convened the two governments to discuss the Northern Expedition, and the noisy scene in Tokyo City was incompatible with the silence of Zhao Zhen's table, because everyone present knew what the official family's banquet meant...... The Northern Expedition is imminent, and the sword points to the clouds!
