Early in the morning, Kaifeng City and even all parts of the Great Song Dynasty, the fragrance floating in the air is the fragrance of moon cakes, fruity, floral, sweet, salty, all of them are not enough.
Vehicles and pedestrians flocked to the city, or went into the city to shop, or went out to enjoy the scenery, or chanted poems, or called friends, everyone with a smile on their faces, and families prepared a reunion feast.
The development of the economic conditions of the Great Song Dynasty is vividly reflected on this day, the mansion of the wealthy family is exquisitely decorated, beautiful, and dizzying, and the people under them have also taken a lot of reward, which is the reward for their good words early in the morning.
Even the common people put on new clothes and cleaned their homes inside and out, and the children were given more copper plates than usual, and they bought all kinds of snacks that filled their mouths.
This scene, in the strong Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, the Ming and Qing dynasties are impossible to see, the wealth of the Great Song Dynasty is the wealth of all the people, although the wealth is not even, but the people's life is also better, unlike other dynasties, the rich and strong are only on the surface, but the people at the bottom of the bitter are the people.
This scene is caused by many reasons, the Zhao family wants to end the troubled times since the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, and it is necessary to appease the people, otherwise the troubled times will only continue more and more.
In addition, in order to prevent the dictatorship of the generals and let the civil officials govern the country with peace of mind, the emperor has to give the generals an explanation, the four things of fame and fortune must be given to a part, since you do not allow the generals to show their prestige, that is, they will cut off their fame, so naturally you have to give them Lilu, that is, allow him to make a lot of money in silence.
To sum up, the overall environment of the Great Song Dynasty is a posture of development, the development is not military, but financial, when this development is reflected in the people, it is manifested in the prosperity and health of the people.
This is also why Zhao Gu said that he wanted to farm, and Zhao Guangyi immediately gave him forty acres of land.
As a result, the resort villa in Zhao Valley was completed smoothly.
Approaching night, the carriages of different colors but all of them stopped in a row outside the resort, and out of the carriage came a high-ranking official and wealthy businessman, these people did not wear official clothes or luxury clothes today, but all wore coarse linen clothes, and they were dressed very naturally.
Everyone got off the sedan chair, and some acquaintances started their own routine, and those who were not familiar with each other also took this opportunity to climb the relationship, and the atmosphere was very warm for a while.
After a while, Zhao Gu, who learned that the guests were coming, greeted everyone one by one, but did not take everyone into the villa, but looked at the direction of Kaifeng City from time to time.
Everyone didn't know why Zhao Gu was like this, but it was not easy to ask, until Lu Mengzheng's sedan chair came over, everyone suddenly realized that Zhao Hou Ye was waiting for Xiang Ye!
In an instant, the old things that have become old and refined have thought of a lot, and even Lord Lu Mengzheng personally came over to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner of Marquis Zhao, could it be that Marquis Zhao really did not fall out of favor?
However, after Lu Mengzheng came over, Zhao Gu met with him, but he still didn't mean to take everyone in.
"Could it be that there is someone more noble than Lu Xiangye coming over?" An official whispered to the person next to him.
"Maybe Zhao Xiangye is coming over." Another official said.
Everyone was taken aback, Zhao Pu is now old and hasn't appeared in front of people for a long time, could it be that Zhao Gu can really invite him?
Zhao Gu took everyone's looks into his eyes, but he didn't explain anything, just waited quietly.
After about a stick of incense, a very simple sedan chair stopped at the gate of the villa, and an old cough came from the sedan chair.
"It's Zhao Xiangye!" An official exclaimed.
Zhao Gu had already caught up with the sedan chair at this time, and an old man who was about to die was helped out from inside, who was not the prime minister Zhao Pu!
"I've seen Xiangye." When all the officials saw Zhao Pu, they immediately stepped forward to salute, even Lu Mengzheng was no exception.
Zhao Pu smiled and waved his hand: "Colleagues don't have to be polite, come to Marquis Zhao's villa for a banquet today, it's not a court discussion, everyone just relax." ”
"Yes."
Zhao Pu looked at Zhao Gu again and asked, "Marquis Zhao, why didn't you take us in?" Could it be that someone else is coming? ”
The officials also looked at Zhao Gu, if even Zhao Pu could only wait for that person to arrive outside the door, how noble that person's identity should be!
Zhao Gu stimulated everyone's hearts again, and smiled slightly: "Xiangye, wait a while." ”
Everyone was taken aback, doesn't this mean that the person is really coming? Oh my God, Zhao Gu just opened a villa, and even the emperor of the dynasty had to come over in person to cheer him, and his face was too big.
Among these people, only Zhao Pu's face was as usual, he nodded and stopped talking.
Sure enough, after another stick of incense, Zhao Guangyi arrived as promised and took the dragon car to the villa.
"Brother Huang, even you are here?" As soon as Zhao Guangyi arrived, he saw Zhao Pu and asked with a smile.
Zhao Pu said: "If you go back to the emperor, the old minister is really panicked at home, I heard that the mountains and rivers in the villa of Marquis Zhao are good, so I came to take a look, if it is really good, I am afraid that the old man will have to retire here in the future." ”
Zhao Guangyi laughed: "In that case, then let's wait and see." ”
Zhao Gu smiled: "Your Majesty, the Weichen will hang the plaque you gave you, and this villa can be regarded as opening today." ”
"Okay, hang up."
Zhao Gu nodded, and then motioned to Li Danran to go down and arrange, and after a while, the workers who had already prepared carried a huge plaque and hung it on the archway.
As the blessing was unveiled, the four big characters were printed into everyone's eyes, which were written by Zhao Guangyi.
"Xianyun Villa."
An inexplicable meaning flashed in the eyes of a high-ranking official, his eyes kept sweeping over Zhao Gu, they had already tasted it, Zhao Gu retreated bravely because of the rapids, but he was more favored by Zhao Guangyi than before, although Zhao Gu had already semi-retired now, but Zhao Guangyi liked him even more.
Among these people, there are also many people who have praised Zhao Gu's stinky feet, and they are also the same as Fang Zheng, psychologically deformed to think that Zhao Gu can be bullied after losing his favor, and he never thought that Zhao Gu directly proved his influence with his actions, so when these people want to target Zhao Gu in the future, they will have to weigh it.
