Chapter 499: Money is worthless
The time soon came to the fifth day of the fifth month of May, which was the birthday of the emperor. And it is the 50th birthday, which can be said to be a grand event of the royal family, and it is also celebrated with the country.
The third day of the fifth month is a family feast. The newlywed Guangping County King Zhao Yan and his wife got up early, dressed in the princess dress of the county king, and were about to enter the Yanfu Palace to bow.
Along the way, I saw that Kaifeng Mansion has made people use red silk and satin and other things to decorate the whole capital magnificently, and look new. The flower shop is dotted with red walls, and there are countless lantern galleries and lantern sheds.
Zhao Nan's princess was born in a small family, and she is a very standard small jasper. Because her uncle is a very principled person, Zong Ze is an official and strict and self-disciplined, so that although he has been the ruler of the court for several years, Zong's father and his own nephew are still only a small family. Put it in Bianjing City, and say that she is a little bit of a 'little jasper'!
The maid who was accompanying the car was a personal maid brought by the Zong family from home, and her eyes were straight, "It's really beautiful, the princess was not short when she was in Beijing, but it was only today that she opened her eyes." ”
Although the Zong family and the king of Guangping County, the little transparent in the clan, had just gotten married, they had already entered Beijing when they were to be married, and they were just people to be married in the boudoir, so it was impossible to travel around the capital.
Now seeing today's scene, my eyes are opened!
Zong covered his mouth and smiled: "Can it be not good-looking?" This is the 50th birthday of the emperor, which is naturally different from previous years. It was going to be much more grand. ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but lift up a thin slit in the curtain and look outside, and turned around to admire Zhao Nan.
The latter has long been accustomed to all this, what is this scene? When the old man was forty years old, the pomp was even more amazing. The officials and officials all over the world have made great efforts to send treasures to the capital. Even if the previous Xuanhe Northern Expedition has just ended!
Of course, the Zong family was always paying attention to her husband's expression, and seeing that the handsome Zhao Nan was still sitting steadily, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This newlywed husband has a very good temper, because the mother concubine is not favored, and he is a little transparent in the palace.
After Zhao formed a person, he also won several praises from Zhao Ji with his good calligraphy and excellent archery skills, but Zhao Ji was a decoration from beginning to end.
Now the emperor on the dragon throne has changed again and again, but Zhao Nan has never improved, let alone rising up to try to plot a fiefdom, and there is not even a trace of political strength.
Of course, if Zhao Nan is really ready to fight politically, or if he wants to plot a fiefdom, Zong Ze will never allow his niece and granddaughter to marry him.
Marriage with the royal family, this is a great grace from Zhao Gou to the Zong family. But the premise is that everything is worry-free and effort-free. This Zhao Yu himself is a person with no ambitions, and the little capital in his hand is more invested in business.
For Zhao Gou, for the Zong family, this is the best.
This time the emperor has a big birthday, as a son, everyone will have a heavy hemorrhage. It is said that some mansions spend as much as 100,000 yuan on finding gifts. But what about this master, the end of the Buddhist system, in addition to the "Book of Filial Piety" copied by himself, is a red coral tree obtained from Fujian by tens of thousands of yuan, with some other bits and pieces, the entire cost is only 20,000 yuan.
Guangping Wangfu's family background is thin, although the Zong family is unwilling to slap a swollen face and become fat, and wait for the second half of the year to burn out for silver after a large amount of overdraft, but Zhao Nan's inaction is also helpless.
Looking at this emperor horizontally and vertically, they can't stand up.
The emperor has a lot of respect for the Emperor Taishang on weekdays, not to mention that there are rumors that someone's 'rivers and mountains' are all the emperors who give up their cheeks to ask the officials to come down......
That's not the case, why are those sons still so angry with their fathers?
When I was out of my mind, the frame had already entered the palace. Not mentioning Zhao Nan's whereabouts, the Zong clan rushed to the queen's Kunning Hall first.
In the Kunning Palace, Empress Xing was sitting in the main hall, talking to the concubines in the palace, the ladies of the clan who entered the palace first, and others. Seeing that the Zong family came in to say goodbye, he hurriedly asked someone to help him up, and said with a smile: "The little brother and daughter-in-law are a little late today." I had arrived early. ”
These words sounded like they were beating people, but with Empress Xing's tone and demeanor, all the ladies and concubines in the palace laughed.
Zhao Yu is ranked twenty-first among Zhao Ji's godsons. is definitely the youngest brother and daughter-in-law of Empress Xing.
"I went to bed early yesterday, thinking that I would get up earlier today. Who knew that although I got up early, I was delayed on the road. ”
Zong's face showed a hint of Hao, but his tone of voice was very steady. The backer behind her is not her husband, but her uncle, and she can be calm and relaxed in the face of the queen.
When the queen heard this, she hurriedly asked, "But what is the reason?" ”
"Naturally, there is a reason. The queen didn't know that now the streets outside can be lit up everywhere, and many people are walking on the street to pray for the emperor's birthday. It is said that His Majesty now governs the world with benevolence, and he is an unprecedented monarch. And the Emperor Taishang was wise and decisive that day, and resolutely set things right, which is really the first special merit of today's prosperous era, I was happy, so I asked the car to go slower. ”
Someone in the crowd immediately laughed and said, "Oh, listen to the little mouth of my brother and sister, I really can talk!" ”
Even though Zhu Lian had always been gentle and dignified in front of everyone, after listening to Zong's words, he couldn't help but open his mouth and protrude into the stab.
Zong's is slapping Zhao Huan in the face. No matter how gentle she is, she can't hold it anymore.
Empress Xing was as if she hadn't heard the sound, "My father and the official family are so loved among the people, which is really the blessing of my Great Song Dynasty." ”
It is said that when she married into King Kang's mansion, her background was not stronger than that of the Zong family. I always have a problem with Zhu Lian in my heart.
And all the people hurried to their feet and said yes.
Then he sat down, and the Zong family confessed to everyone, and sat in the back seat of the princess's family. At this point, Zhao Ji's daughter-in-law has all come over.
But what is this turmoil? A group of girls bit their tongues, which is far from the scene in the Shengping Building at this moment.
Zhao Gou looked at the cheap brothers in front of him, and his brows were about to wrinkle.
What's going on? One by one, they all sharpened their heads and went to camp in the "slave trade", not afraid of being blackened? That thing is a quick money, but it's really dark and dark.
In only three or two months, there were already people from the northwest, the East China Sea and the South China Sea who had already brought in slaves to the Central Plains. The number of local slaves is also rising, and there are basically trade markets in various state capitals.
Although that market is often priceless.
The slaves introduced into the Central Plains are still basically in the hands of the nobles at this stage. This kind of cheapness, after all, they should eat their stomachs first, so that they can really pass the cake to the next layer, and before that, it was just a few dregs exposed between their fingers.
"Official's Wisdom." The face of the old Bayi King Zhao Yan was full of bitterness.
His mother was Zhao Ji's former favorite concubine Da Liu, and after her death, she was posthumously named Empress Mingda, and it has been 20 years. He is the eldest of the three sons and three daughters under the knee of the Da Liu family.
Of course, among the three men, someone must be brave enough to take on the heavy responsibility, and Zhao Yan, as the eldest of the brothers, is the one who should not let it go.
But it was only in this battle that they felt powerless.
Da Liu died early, and it can be said that the three brothers were left behind. Zhao Yan: First of all, they can't pass the test with a single word of wealth.
not to train an elite army with their own hands, even if it is only a short five hundred; If you don't personally recruit people and organize manpower and material resources, you won't know how worthless this money is!
