This kid didn't quit? He wants to compete with Lin Lingsu to the end?

Because this competition was decided by Emperor Huizong, it attracted the attention of officials of all sizes in the DPRK and China.

I thought that today was just a formality, but I didn't expect that this kid from the Zong family didn't follow the routine, and he had to compete with the national teacher seriously.

Tong Guan's face turned the color of pig liver. As a eunuch, Tong Guan thought that no one knew the emperor's mind better than him, so he took the initiative to come to Zong's house to explain the precautions.

Who knows, Zong Shu will not quit!

If this little thing is not done well, how will Huizong see himself in the future?!

Some people are angry, and naturally some people are happy. Especially the few officials who don't deal with Tong Guan have a good show to watch now.

Tong Guan just wanted to reprimand, but he couldn't speak. Because he couldn't find any reason to reprimand.

Is it wrong that Zong Shu didn't quit? What he's announcing today is that you can either compete or opt out.

Zong Shu chose the first one, and there was nothing wrong at all!

At this time, many people remembered that Zong Shu went to the Wangjia Gambling House yesterday to place a bet and gambled with 200,000 taels that he would win.

At that time, everyone thought that the Zong family was showing favor to Cai Jing.

However, where does this guy get his confidence?

Lin Lingsu's skill of public opinion is recognized by the court from top to bottom.

Finding carboniferous requires a wealth of practical experience, such as the direction of mountains and rivers, the characteristics of strata, and so on.

Lin Lingsu had successfully found the charcoal in Yingtianfu in the past, because he had traveled a lot.

And Zong Shu never walked out of Bianliang City at all, and found Shi Tan within a month? It's impossible.

In the face of so many officials, it was impossible for Huizong to reprimand Zong Shu.

"Zong Shu, can you find the charcoal within a month?" Huizong asked.

"Your Majesty, don't say a month, if the conditions are met, I will find new carbons within seven days." Zong Shu replied.

Within seven days? Found Carboniferous? That's a big joke, isn't it?

How far can you go in seven days? If there is a charcoal near the capital, I'm afraid I would have found it a long time ago, and I have to wait until you Zong Shu comes?

Tong Guan finally found a reason to vent, "Come on, whip this person forty, and drive him out of the palace." ”

"Lord Taiwei, Your Majesty hasn't spoken, are you talking crookedly here? I am looking for charcoal for the imperial court, what's wrong? ”

Zong Shu immediately turned to Huizong: "Your Majesty, I am a good young man of the Great Song Dynasty, I am wholeheartedly looking for Shitan, and I don't care if he is a national teacher or not, and it has nothing to do with me!" ”

Zong Shu put on a look of serving the country and the people, not trying to be famous, and was awe-inspiring, and continued:

"Your Majesty, you have the world in your heart, your heart for the common people, and you are always concerned about the well-being of ordinary people. Therefore, I will give what I have learned and do my best to find the coal in seven days! ”

Isn't there something wrong with this kid? These words are clear and clear.

It's just that the words and slang are mixed together, which seems very funny, but it sounds fresh.

Hearing this, Huizong immediately became happy, this is the voice from the bottom, this kind of voice is the most real.

So, in the hearts of the people, I am still a wise man?

Just now, this kid said that it was just to find the charcoal and share the worries of the court, not for the name of the national teacher, it is rare to have this heart.

Now, for Huizong, the most pressing and thorny problem is to solve the fuel problem.

Zong Shu is also very clear about this.

From the second year of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty Yongxi to the third year of Emperor Guangzong of Southern Song Dynasty, it was the third Xiaoice period in history.

During this period, the strange cold scene of ice and snow in the Jianghuai area reappeared, and the citrus and other fruit trees in Chang'an and Luoyang all froze to death.

The Huai River Basin, Jiangnan, the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and Taihu Lake can all freeze completely in winter, and chariots and horses can pass on the frozen river.

There are basically no trees on both sides of the official roads north of the Huai River, and they are all cut down and burned as firewood.

There were many willow trees near the capital, but they were also cut down, and even the shrubs and wild grass on the ground were taken away by the common people.

The eunuchs and big families sent their families to intercept them at various intersections, and the charcoal sent from various counties was sold before it reached the capital.

The production of coal in Yingtianfu is gradually decreasing, not because it is about to be hollowed out, but because it is digging deeper and deeper, and the difficulty of producing charcoal increases.

"Zong Shu, I believe you once. If you find the charcoal, there is a reward. ”

Huizong remembered the scene of the school competition, could this kid have any special encounter and learned the art of public opinion?

"Your Majesty, wait, I still have one condition." Zong Shu hurriedly shouted.

Condition?! Prince Zhao Huan almost dropped his jaw in shock.

This kid dared to make a condition to the emperor. Meaning, if the emperor doesn't meet his conditions, he will pick and choose!

Huizong seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a smile: "You still have conditions?" Go ahead. ”

"Your Majesty, my condition is to organize a group of donkey friends, ah, no, organize a tour group, and ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be our leader." Zong Shu put forward the conditions.

Tour? Does this kid want to travel at public expense or something? Didn't you say that you should find coal?

This kid, who is fine, let the prince be the head of the tour group! This is obviously to please the prince, and I want to tie up with the prince.

In fact, Zong Shu also had a temporary idea, because the prince Zhao Huan helped him speak just now, and Zong Shu looked at Zhao Huan more pleasantly, so he pulled Zhao Huan into the gang.

Finding the coal is not difficult for Zong Shu at all. The difficulty is, if you find the coal, who owns it?

If it is purely returned to the imperial court, wouldn't Zong Shu have done it in vain?

The swarthy charcoal is all white silver.

How could there be a modern industry without coal? Therefore, the coal resources must be accounted for by ideas.

Find the charcoal first, and then cooperate with the prince, like Cai Jing and Tong Guanzhi who want to occupy the charcoal, they have to weigh it carefully.

Huizong looked at the crown prince, and there was a hint of impatience between his eyebrows. It's bad, I think about it, the prince doesn't like Huizong.

"Father, the son is willing to go with Zong Shu to find the coal." The crown prince stepped forward and said.

Now that the crown prince has agreed, what else does Huizong have to say?

"If you can't find the coal, you're responsible." Huizong pondered for a moment and said.

It seems that Huizong also did not believe that Zong Shu could find the coal in seven days. The reason why I agreed to let the prince participate was mainly because I wanted to use this to knock the prince on the ground.

Lin Lingsu stood there, watching Zong Shu jump around, disapproving. This kid is stupid, just quit and it's over, you have to compete.

His Majesty's original intention was just to use this kid and let him use all his resources to find Shi Tan.

I didn't expect this kid to quit, and he offended Tong Guan and Cai Jing all of a sudden!

Zong Shu pondered in his heart, this competition, there was no color, it seems that Lin Lingsu did not fancy the Zong family's house at all. Hurt Zongyi and almost sold his property again.

In the final analysis, Lin Lingsu, as a national teacher, is still a pawn of the emperor, and he can put it wherever he wants.

Thinking of Lin Lingsu's performance on the field that day, this guy may have other talents.

Although these alchemists like to pretend to be ghosts, if they are well guided, they may come up with some new tricks.

Zong Shu's heart moved, and he walked over to Lin Lingsu and said, "National Teacher, if you want to compete, how can you not have a lottery?" ”

With so many people watching, Lin Lingsu definitely couldn't admit it, and immediately agreed.

"If you find the charcoal before me, my clan's house will be yours. If I find the coal before you, you will worship me as a teacher. ”

Zong Shu's words were like sprinkling a handful of salt in a pot of oil, and there was an uproar in the hall.

This kid is so crazy that he wants the national teacher to worship him as a teacher!
