Chapter 874: Old Fox
Zhao Butry was not really sentenced by the court, but as soon as Emperor Lu spoke, he could only obediently pack his luggage and go to the northwest to drink wind and eat sand.
As a tide maker and old fox who has experienced strong winds and waves, Zhao Buqian is by no means a rough and reckless man.
Long before he 'showed up', Zhao Butry had already had secret contact with many people, and he was not the only one who was interested in Tianzhu?
Now the Zhao family is the first to stand up and test Emperor Lu's intentions, if something is wrong, the first one to be beaten is Zhao Butry, how can he take this risk to others for no reason?
It's a pity that it was his son who made Zhao Butry sigh.
The eldest son, Zhao Yi, who has a good future, ended up being transferred to the Western Regions. And Zhao Fei, the second son of the Guozi Prison who had not yet graduated, also left the school and came to the Western Regions with him.
On the occasion of his twentieth birthday, Zhao Fei suddenly received the bad news, and embarked on a journey to the Gobi Yellow Sand Land with his father, who could not return to the Central Plains for the rest of his life.
Because Zhao Butry's family is an active migration of themselves, the treatment is much more preferential than that of ordinary 'immigrants', not only in the distribution of acres of land, but also in terms of time.
From Jinling to Gaochang, they have more than half a year, as long as they arrive in Gaochang before April next year to handle household registration, it will be OK.
But in this day and age, is the Western Regions in winter accessible to those of them who are new to the world? Don't freeze into a popsicle? After deducting the long winter in the northwest, the time was not very relaxed, so the Zhao family's migration was also very urgent.
Moreover, the boss Zhao seems to be an official figure and wants to go to Gaochang Yamen to report. That's earlier, in March.
Therefore, the family got on the boat in Jinling, went straight to Jiangling, and then changed to a carriage and galloped to the northwest without stopping.
When you enter the Su, the time is already in the middle of July, and compared to the south of the Yangtze River, the northwest of autumn has already brought a slight chill.
At this moment, walking in the Hexi Corridor where the water and grass are abundant, the north and south are narrow, and the east and west are not at a glance on the big field, looking at the mountains on both sides, Zhao seems to be in a mood that is not the slightest bit of melancholy, and some are just very happy.
He didn't feel stunned at all because of the distant transfer to the borderland, on the contrary, Zhao Zhao, who was very self-aware, always thought that the Western Regions was the stage for him to show his talents.
The Central Plains is not bad, but his identity limits his development. Zhao seems to be in the Central Plains to be full of gray hair, and he can't get past the hurdle of the state government official. But in the Western Regions, he can.
Although he can't let all his 'restrictions' disappear here, he can be allowed to cross the threshold of the four products without hindrance. Although Zhao seems to know that he only needs to wait a few days, after the Duke of Fuguo is enthroned, he will be able to develop. But in Xinfu and in the Central Plains, those are two different levels.
What's more, how could the Zhao family let everyone leave the Central Plains?
Is the family temple gone? Didn't the ancestors worship?
It's true that you sell your ancestors, but it doesn't mean that you don't want your ancestors.
The imperial tombs of the ancestors of the old Zhao family for several generations are all in Gong County.
Zhao seems to be one of the characters on the left-behind list, and most of the latter are outstanding among the Zhao family's children. or in officialdom, or in shopping malls, people who can emerge. It only makes sense for such people to stay. The influence of the Zhao family can be maintained to a certain extent.
However, in the eyes of many Zhao family members, even if Zhao seems to be the political envoy of a province in the northwest, it is better to be a state in a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River.
Because after others sit on the political envoy in the northwest, they may go to the next level, or even be transferred to the interior. And Zhao doesn't seem to have that kind of good luck. He himself felt that 'the sky was high and the sea was wide', but others thought that he was affected by Zhao Butry.
"Jingzhi, how far is it from Gaochang here? Let's drag our family all the way to the road, but don't delay your business. The mother's concerned voice interrupted Zhao's train of thought.
But seeing him pull the reins, the horse obediently turned back to the front of the car, since the northeast, northwest and northern prairies were completely taken into the bag by Lu Qi, the horse in the Central Plains has completely replaced the sedan chair, even if women travel more to make carriages, rather than make people carry sedan chairs.
Zhao Ruma bent down on his back and comforted him in a wide voice: "Mother rest assured, this place will go west along the official road, and I will definitely be able to enter Shazhou City at the end of the month." In August, although the northwest was cool, it was not snowing heavily. Before the road is closed, we can at least walk to Hami. From there to Gaochang, hurry up, that is, ten days, will not delay the child's registration. ”
Hutian snowed in August, and this is not bad in the northwest. Heavy snow is sure to fall by the end of August at the latest. As soon as the snow fell, the road was almost closed, and if Zhao seemed to rush forward now, it would take half a year for him not to say that he would meet his parents, but it would be difficult to get in touch. How can people be reassured?
"It's enough for you to have this filial piety. Don't let the bad things in this family affect your career. Ahem, if it weren't for your father, with your intelligence, how could you come to this bitter cold place for a future? When Zhao's mother said this, she couldn't help but wipe her tears again. From a wealthy wife who was safe and stable, to a homeless person on the frontier in the blink of an eye, such a blow is undoubtedly heavy for a woman's family.
"Mother, don't say that. How can the father-in-law and daughter-in-law watch the two old and young brothers come to the border alone and suffer. Seeing this, Zhao's wife, who was on the side, hurriedly soothed softly.
Why didn't she complain in her heart? You can marry a chicken and a dog and a dog, and women are like that. How can her father-in-law and her husband decide something together? Anyway, it's not a catastrophe that robs the house.
"The lady is right. Mother, don't take this to heart. This is not the creation of children, and children feel that it is worth it. Zhao seemed to follow the interface.
Hearing her son and daughter-in-law say this, Zhao's mother only wiped her tears and thought about things as well as possible. And prayed in his heart that his son could make contributions and be transferred back to the Central Plains as soon as possible, and the emperor could also open his eyes and send a message early to pardon her confused old man. Thinking of this, Mother Zhao couldn't help but look back at her husband who was sitting inside, and she had a lot of words in her heart, but she couldn't say it.
In the spacious four-wheeled carriage, the three generations of the Zhao family sat down easily, the three children and Zhao Fei's wife sat in the innermost, and Zhao Lao Er accompanied his father. During the conversation between Zhao and his mother, Zhao didn't try to bring a single eyelid.
He was 'sent to exile', and it is difficult to return to the Central Plains in this life except for going directly overseas. But such a big sacrifice also brought him a huge gain, and that harvest was not simply contributed to the Zhao family.
Zhao Butry sat there motionless in his coat, like an old fox who had cultivated for thousands of years. On the surface, the wind is light, but in fact, the calculation in my heart is clear and clear......
