Smiling and shaking his head, Xin Xi continued to eat pastries and drink tea, looking at the busy scene outside.

This year's examination and the palace examination after that, it has nothing to do with him, if Zhao Shu opens the system in August, he must take the exam, and then the township exam in September, and the next year's exam and the palace exam.

It's a matter of the soap industry, you have to ask Zhao Shu's store if it's done, and the sooner it is covered, the better.

The lockdown lasted until noon, and it is said that more than 1,600 people were caught in the lockdown, and the dungeon of Kaifeng Mansion was already overcrowded, so they had to transfer the heinous sins to the heavenly prison three miles northwest of the city.

It's really a pity for these children, since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, they have never heard of an example of being able to come out alive after entering the prison, and it is impossible for them to come out alive again, the best result is to be able to spend the rest of their lives in the prison.

After the closure ended, Xin Xi and his party of four walked towards Xinjiazhuang, talking and laughing all the way, and soon arrived at Xinjiazhuang.

As soon as Xin said goodbye and left, he was about to report to the patriarch what happened last night, and after parting ways, he just turned a corner, and Xin Zhen's dilapidated house appeared in front of him.

The door was wide open, and it seemed that a guest had arrived, otherwise, with Xiang'er's character, he would have to block all the gaps in the wall.

When he entered the door, he saw a familiar figure sitting in the place where Xin Ji often did, and in front of him stood Adam and Eve, two children.

"The head of the house is back!" Adam reminded.

The man turned around, dressed in simple clothes, if he didn't know him, if he usually saw such a person suddenly, Xin Xi would not equate the other party with the crown prince.

"Xin Xi greets His Royal Highness the Prince!" Xin Zhen smiled and saluted.

Thirty-six and Chong Jianzhong followed and saluted, but did not open their mouths to greet them. This is the habit of the Northern Song Dynasty, and there is a trace of the style of the Wei and Jin dynasties - the courtiers of the courtiers are not the courtiers!

Anyway, the Northern Song Dynasty was an era of extreme contradictions, he was a turning point in the coexistence of new things and old things, both the kind of courtier's courtiers are not courtiers, but there is also the saying that the whole world is not the king's land. In other respects, he was the same, the scholars talked about elegance on the one hand, and on the other hand, they became real citizens with the common people, and they also fell into the vulgar!

It's a pity that this turning point has not fully developed new things, and it was directly killed by the barbarians.

Then, the combination of advanced civilization and backward nomadic civilization was taken an average, so the Great Song Dynasty used the level of a thousand years ahead of the West to integrate with the Mongolia, which was 500 years behind the West, and merged into a civilization about 500 years ahead of the West, and the Mongols became a part of the Chinese nation because of this, but China is no longer that China.

The love, hatred, and hatred mixed in history eventually disappeared and became an unspeakable thing, just as later generations said that Yue Fei was not a national hero, but a scum who prevented the integration of the Chinese nation, perhaps, if Xin Yi failed, a thousand years later, he would also become the sinner who hindered the integration of the Chinese nation in the mouths of some experts!

Xin Xi smiled bitterly, politics is a very wonderful thing, so he likes the enlightened politics of the Northern Song Dynasty very much, the emperor is supreme, but he can achieve real freedom of speech, and he can rule the world with scholars, and there is a golden weapon of the royal family and politics to beat the unconscious!

Of course, the Northern Song Dynasty referred to by Xin Xi is at most a hundred years from Zhenzong to Shenzong, before Zhenzong, there are still five generations of residual wind, and Taizong has made a not very good start, that is, the throne can be brother to brother, which led to Huizong becoming the emperor, which led to the corruption and destruction of the Northern Song Dynasty, and after Shenzong, Emperor Zhao has only cared about his own pleasure, as for the Southern Song Dynasty, it is even more peaceful.

In fact, if you don't die, the Southern Song Dynasty can always survive secretly, but the emperor of the Song Dynasty really pumped his brain, and instead of uniting the weak to check and balance, he united with the strong to destroy the other weak.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, they united with the more powerful Jin State to destroy the Liao State, resulting in the loss of half of the country, and during the Southern Song Dynasty, the emperor's ministers were even more awesome, and they actually united with the Mongols to destroy the Jin State, and then, the last half of the country was gone.

Sometimes, Xin Zhen really wanted to dig out the brain of Emperor Zhao and see if it was filled with tofu dregs!

Zhao Shu smiled and nodded: "Eleven Lang is exempt, you are a pair of children, but you are praised as rare in the sky and on the earth!" ”

Xin Zhen smiled modestly: "Tong Yan Wuji, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gets along with them for a while, these two little guys are afraid that they will not think that Xin is powerful, but will change to say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is rarely in the sky and on the ground." ”

"Xin Eleven!" Zhao Shu frowned slightly: "You don't look like a young man who hasn't reached the crown, but like a scheming old fox in your fifties and sixties!" ”

Xin Zhen laughed: "Fifty or sixty is not enough, and the year of establishment should be there, three years of madness, in a dream, after twenty-seven years!" ”

"Cher said you went to Wonderland in your dreams?" Zhao Shu was a little puzzled: "This soap is a fairyland?!" ”

Xin Xi thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, this soap is a fairyland, in the fairyland, everyone uses soap, and even soap, toothpaste, shampoo, all kinds of things, everything that is convenient for people's livelihood is something that I can't think of!" ”

"Toothpaste? Shampoo?! Zhao Shu's face was full of surprise: "Eleven Lang will also make this toothpaste and shampoo?!" ”

Xin Zhen's face was full of embarrassment: "I will be able to do it, but my Da Song lacks a lot of raw materials, and it may not be easy to ...... it."

Zhao Shu got up suddenly: "Originally, I was going to ask you if you have immortal immortals, but now it seems that immortality has no meaning at all in my Great Song Dynasty, but these things that benefit the people, if they can be made, will not only benefit the people's livelihood, but also, if they are sold to the Western Xia and even the Western Regions of the Liao Kingdom, my Great Song treasury will be expected to reach the level of the rule of Wenjing in the Han Dynasty!" ”

Under the rule of Wenjing, the warehouse was full of grain, the old grain could not be eaten, and the rope stringing copper coins in the treasury was directly rotten.

It looks very good, but in fact, it was a very miserable era, the most miserable era when the emperor was the emperor, the Han at that time was bullied by the Huns every year, and even Liu Bang, the son of the face, almost died in Baishan Mountain.

After leaving from Baishan Mountain, Liu Bang began to save money, preparing to save money to fight the Huns, and saved the money of two generations before he created the great cause of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!

This is similar to the founding period of the Northern Song Dynasty, Taizu set up a pile library to save money to fight the Khitan, and if he can't win, he will save money to buy Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

It's a pity that in the Zhenzong period, the sealed pile library was banned, and when it came to Renzong, the treasury was in debt every year, and there was still a yarn.

"It's really hard to do!" Xin Xi felt that Zhao Shu's expectations couldn't be too high, after all, he himself could guarantee whether he could make it.

"In a few days, I will recommend Eleven Lang to Your Majesty, if you have Your Majesty's support and pour out the power of the entire Great Song Dynasty, it may not be impossible to do it!" Zhao Shu's face was full of light, as if he saw something similar to soap, sweeping away the wealth of the Liao Kingdom little by little!

Xin Zhen's face was speechless, but his heart was moving, Renzong was dying, but this is the future emperor in front of him, if he can really get the emperor's support, he may be able to move a lot of things in the 21st century to the Great Song Dynasty!

It's a pity that Zhao Shu has only been the emperor for four years, or he should vote for Shenzong, who has reigned for eighteen years!

If he can get the full support of the Divine Sect, in eighteen years, a generation, Xin Xi is absolutely sure that the Great Song Dynasty will be different!

And if he follows Zhao Shu, once a son of heaven and a courtier, and when the Divine Sect ascends to the throne, Xin Xi will definitely not be able to get full support!

"Not necessarily, the people in the fairyland, who make soap, do not learn the scriptures of Zhuzi, but the study of Mojia engineering, but today's Great Song Dynasty, no one is willing to learn this, that is to say, not to mention other raw materials, just the corresponding talents, the Great Song Dynasty does not have!" Xin Xi politely refused.

Zhao Shu didn't seem to understand the deep meaning of Xin Zhen, and said, "No talent? Eleven Lang, don't you know? Set up a school, you can teach it! It is said that if you want to wait for ten years, there will be enough talents, and this ten years, relying on Eleven Lang, can also support a huge industry! ”

Shocked! Xin Zhen was really shocked!

He never thought that in the feudal era, there would be such an enlightened emperor!

Thinking wildly in his mind, Xin Xi smiled and nodded: "Thank you His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your kindness, but now is the most important thing, if you can't even do well in the soap industry, the rest are all utopian, I don't know the store?" ”

Zhao Shu sat down, chuckled, took out a roll of paper from his sleeve, and said: "One place on Jiuhai Street in Kaifeng Mansion, one each in Daimyo Mansion, Henan Mansion, and Yingtian Mansion, the deed deeds of the four shops are here, you can go and receive them at any time." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince!"

After the business was handled, Zhao Shu glanced at Xin Xi, and Xin Xi was very interested in letting the others leave first.

After everyone else left, Zhao Shu spoke, and said in a very low tone: "In recent days, Xue'er has been depressed every day, Xin Shiyi, can't you take some time to go over and take a look?!" Originally, I was going to take advantage of this shop to let you go over, but the person I sent yesterday didn't see you, and I didn't come back until noon today. ”

Depressed every day?!

Xin Xi's heart fluctuated slightly, and there was a hint of joy, she cared about him, otherwise, why would she be depressed? !

"I entered the city yesterday, and it coincided with the closure of the forbidden army, so I stayed in the city inn for one night."

Zhao Shu sighed, his heart was very complicated, he wanted to kill Xin Zhen, and he also wanted Xin Zhen to make his daughter happy: "Xiao Wang still has a lot of things to do, so I will leave today!" ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, go slowly!" Xin Xi said a formulaic sentence, but the person sat in place, starting.

The woman's heart was really under the sea, and with a long sigh, Xin Xi took the deed on the table, looked at it, and was not happy at all.

At this moment, Thirty-six walked in: "Eleven Lang, someone from Ouyang Xiu's Mansion came up and passed the news, saying that tomorrow, Zhang Zai will leave Beijing and go to Renzhi County, Xiongzhou Xiongxian County." ”

"Oh?! Then go to Wuli Pavilion tomorrow morning to see him off! Xin Zhen replied unconsciously, anyway, he didn't know where Xiongzhou Xiongxian was.

His mind is full of Sima Yun now, and he is hesitating, should he go to King Pu's Mansion to meet her, and can he see her again?!

I really don't know what's going on in this stupid girl's head.

Sure enough, love is the greatest original sin of human beings, and this is something that will only make people hard and bitter, but life is like this, and the person who often makes you feel miserable is the one who can make you feel happy.

Therefore, for whom the heart is bitter will be sweet.

Got up with a wry smile, Xin Xi felt the need to find someone to talk to him, thirty-six, his mouth was very tight, but he was too young, and this girl probably had no emotional experience.

As for the others?!

Thinking about it, Xin Xi felt very irritable, read the book, couldn't bear it, got up and went out, went to the commercial building to have a look, look at the ruins, his mood should be better.

Entering the city, it was only less than an hour later, and in Bianliang City, children all over the street were singing a nursery rhyme:

"Don't go, don't go, the slave family soap will give you to make, and the water will make white jade, white jade will dye the skin, and the skin will be better than frost and snow. If the Taoist chief asks for soap, Xin Shiyi Lang makes it by hand. On the other street, Ren and the daily use of thirty Wen! ”

This......!

Xin Zhen listened to these catchy nursery rhymes, and couldn't help but be surprised, these guys have an amazing talent for advertising!

It seems that there is never waste, only people who are misplaced!

I think this is Liu San'er's handwriting again, the last time that girl's oil wall car speech is still vivid, this time it tossed out a nursery rhyme?

Moreover, nursery rhymes are spreading quite quickly, especially in the international metropolis of Bianjing, where there is an endless stream of businessmen, and it must not be long before the reputation of soap spreads far away.

Sighing slightly, Xin Xi continued to walk towards the commercial building, and in the distance, he saw a black ruin.

On a whim, Xin Zhen shouted: "The palace has made soil, Xing, the people are suffering, dying, the people are suffering!" ”

On the other side, in the Chu Palace, Zhu Long stood in the center of the hall, his face was covered with beads of sweat, and his legs kept shaking.

"Zhu Long, tell this king, what happened to last night's fire?!" The king of Chu sitting in the hall was full of anger.

Commercial buildings, not only have a lot of important things, but the most important thing is the property left by his father! And the most important thing is that he was entangled with his concubine last night, so he was called into the palace!

"Your Highness, this is what Xin Shiyi did!" Zhu Long lowered his head and sweated profusely, he was actually biting indiscriminately, and there was no evidence at all.

"Oh?" King Chu smiled slightly: "That kid of the Xin family is hateful, but it can't be said that because he went to the commercial building during the day to make a fuss, he set the fire at night, right?" And most importantly, how did the fire get up?! ”

How did the fire start?!

Zhu Long was also confused, he could see with his own eyes that night, the fire was lit from the firewood room to the attic, it was only about ten breaths!

Unless someone poured fire oil on the entire attic in advance, otherwise, how is this possible?!

"This fire, there are too many things involved, Your Majesty and several ministers are staring at it, they all think that this is the work of anti-thieves, the Xin family has been loyal to the royal family for generations, now is not the time to take the opportunity to splash dirty water, this king will give you three days, you can't find out, you get out yourself!" The King of Chu was obviously impatient.

Zhu Long's fat body knelt down: "The villain must go all out!" ”

Examine? Where to start?! Zhu Long feels that life is very gloomy!

After Zhu Long left, the king of Chu looked at the people behind him and said: "Butler, send invitations, this king's palace will gather tomorrow night, invite celebrities from all walks of life in Bianjing, Xin Shiyi must come!" This king wants to meet this Xin family boy! ”

"Yes!" The thin butler bowed down to receive the order, turned around and walked out, and went to make an invitation.
