Chapter 35: A Basket of Eggs
When Zhao Zheng first got up, he was a little unwell, thinking that it was because he suffered from some wind and cold last night, and his sleeping position was indecent, so he squeezed him into only a small place, got up and let the kitchen boil a bowl of ginger soup and drink it and went out for a run. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Six guards also disguised themselves to protect secretly, Zhao Zheng trotted along the Yanqiao River in the city, the Yanqiao River was named because of the salt bridge, it is said that a salt merchant donated money to build it in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, so it was named.
After running for a while, Zhao Zheng felt hungry in his stomach, so he ran to the steamed bun shop on the side, bought two steamed buns, and turned around to find that there were several children trembling in the bridge cave under the salt bridge.
The guy who sold steamed buns saw Zhao Zheng distracted, so he reminded: "National teacher, there are big families in the north of the city who give porridge every day, and they can't starve to death." ”
"Oh!" Zhao Zheng came back to his senses, looked at the guy in surprise and asked, "Do you recognize me?" ”
The guy's head was like pounding garlic, and there was a smile on his face: "Yesterday, I saw the national teacher from afar in the Golden Scale Building. National teacher, in another three years, the fairy melon and fairy beans will benefit the world, and there should be no children who come out to beg like them. ”
Zhao Zheng was stunned, looked at the guy's eager eyes, and said firmly: "Well, of course!" By the way, what's your name? ”
The guy scratched his head, and was suddenly questioned by the gods in the sky, feeling a little shy: "I, Niu Xiaoer, used to be a beggar, and the Meng Dong family didn't dislike it, so I entered this bun shop as a buddy, and finally didn't live on the street." After speaking, he thought about it again, and felt that he should not be selfish in front of the immortals, so he said frankly: "Actually, I think that if the fairy melon and fairy beans are popularized as soon as possible, those beggars will not come to my bun shop to beg." A year ago, I saw that they were pitiful, and gave them a bun each with my salary, and who knew that from then on they would not go to the porridge shed, but would come to me every day to eat. So ......"
Zhao Zheng looked at the blushing guy and took two bites of the buns: "Your buns taste good, send a basket of buns to the Taiping Courtyard on Yujie every morning." ”
Niu Xiaoer immediately understood that Zhao Zheng was helping him gain popularity, and said excitedly: "Thank you, thank you, thank you." ”
Zhao Zheng left thirty Wen in the bun shop, saying that those beggars came again today, and he invited them to eat a bun each.
Zhao Zheng finished eating the buns, regained some vitality, trotted two steps and met an old man who stopped him.
The old man was in tears before he got close, Zhao Zheng saw that he was going to make a big salute, and hurriedly went up to help, and the old man muttered in his mouth: "National teacher, thank you for your life!" ”
Zhao Zheng was a little strange, carefully looked at the old man's face, and confirmed that he had never seen it: "Uncle, there is no need to be like this, it seems that I have never seen you." ”
"My son offended an official on the street last year, and was sentenced to exile in Guangdong by the government, I thought that the old man would send the white-haired person to the black-haired person, but I didn't expect that last month, the dog suddenly asked Zaoyang Commercial Bank to send a letter, saying that everything was fine there, and now he is doing things for the little fairy chief." Zaoyang Commercial Bank was opened in the name of Wang Fucai, and Zhao Zheng accounted for 50% of the shares.
"What's Ling Lang's name?"
"The dog's name is Xu Mu."
Speaking of this, Zhao Zheng remembered that there was indeed a man named Xu Mu in the group of exiled prisoners in Guangzhou, because he was a carpenter and had some skills, he was called by Zhao Zheng to create some glass models.
"Ling Lang is a good craftman, I am in charge of Tuntian's affairs in Guangzhou, so let him come over and help me do some favors." Saying that, a guard who was secretly following here ran over, with a basket of eggs in his arms, and whispered a few words to Zhao Zheng.
It turned out that this basket of eggs was given to Zhao Zheng by this old man Xu, and those guards saw an old man holding a bamboo basket this morning to inquire about Zhao Zheng's whereabouts, thinking that there was another villain who wanted to offend the national teacher, so he confiscated the bamboo basket, and after the body search, let him go to see Zhao Zheng.
"Are they all home-grown eggs?"
Old man Xu nodded again and again: "I have a lot of thoughts, and I hope that the national teacher will not dislike it." ”
Zhao Zheng knew that if he refused now, the old man would be even more sad, so he comforted: "Thank you, Uncle Xu, Zhao Zheng just wants to eat eggs these days." ”
After saying goodbye to the old man, thinking about the two things he bumped into today, Zhao Zheng ran two steps and stopped, he knew that he would have a huge impact on this world and this era, but after all, it was just a castle in the air, and he couldn't feel it personally. And today he felt that maybe a little kindness at will could keep many people alive. The sincere and warm thanks of those people are not empty fantasies of prosperity, but are implemented, so that Zhao Zheng can also empathize with their joy and gratitude.
At this time, a guard ran over and told Zhao Zheng that they had learned today that the two Jianghu people who had befriended Chen Bao were missing.
Last night's heavy rain made the air extra crisp this morning, but on this seemingly sunny day, two people died, just because of the slightest suspicion of the big guys.
It's really unpleasant.
"Do you think I should save Chen Bao?" Zhao Zheng suddenly asked the guard.
The guard thought for a moment, bowed his head and said, "This is the arbitrary decision of the Sacred Heart of the National Teacher, and I dare not say anything. Besides, didn't that man run away last night? ”
Zhao Zheng smiled self-deprecatingly, the guard in front of him was invited by Wang Fucai, and he didn't know the cause and effect of the whole thing, Zhao Zheng thought about it and asked: "Do you want me to become those big people or is it like what you are looking for?" ”
Zhao Zheng said suddenly, so that the guard didn't say anything for a long time, he was in the business of the dart bureau, and he was not uncommon for those big families to intrigue him, knowing what Zhao Zheng was asking, to be honest, he had never seen a person like Zhao Zheng in the first half of his life, no matter who he treated, he treated him sincerely and treated him as equal, but thinking that Zhao Zheng was a god in the sky, he didn't feel strange, how could the gods be disdainful of using those tricks to control his subordinates?
"The national teacher is an immortal in the sky, and he is a big man in his own right. We mortals have to use some dishonorable means in order to achieve some goals because of our lack of ability and knowledge, but you are an immortal. Different from us! ”
Hearing this, Zhao Zheng suddenly realized, yes, he has hundreds of years of scientific and technological accumulation of books in later generations, and history is as clear in front of him as the texture on the palm of his hand, and there are many things that he can take directly, and he doesn't have to use those ways to balance the power.
"Prepare a carriage for me and go to the Prime Minister's Mansion." There is only one place in the entire Great Song Dynasty that is qualified to be called the Prime Minister's Mansion without adding a prefix, and that is the Prime Minister's Mansion on the shore of Dongqian Lake.
Today's court is closed, there is no need to go to the early court, Shi Miyuan must still be at home.
――
Zhao Zheng carried the basket of eggs into the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he didn't need to submit the name card in advance, he only needed to ask the housekeeper to report it.
For Shi Miyuan, Zhao Zheng naturally does not have any hatred, shame for being with him and other emotions, no matter what, Zhao Zheng asked Shi Miyuan several times to do things, he did not delay, whether it was for You Xiong to get rid of the crime or borrow a merchant ship. What's more, Shi Miyuan treats him without arrogance.
And he didn't have much friendship with Chen Bao, but he was sympathetic to his experience.
"Xiang Cheng is using it early, and the national teacher will also go together!" The one who came to greet Zhao Zheng was Shi Miyuan's favorite concubine Green.
Zhao Zheng didn't dare to hold it up: "There is Aunt Lao"
Green Yi nodded, although this national teacher is young, he can't find the slightest fault with the etiquette.
……
"Xianggong, Zhao Zheng asked you for someone!"
Shi Miyuan was taking a sip of ginseng soup and asked casually, "Who is it?" ”
Zhao Zheng waited and asked Shi Miyuan to finish the ginseng soup before speaking, so as not to squirt it out when he got it.
"Chen Bao!"
Shi Miyuan was startled, the soup bowl fell to the ground, and he wondered in his heart, could it be that Zhao Zheng knew about it? So why did he come today? Xingshi asks for sin?
Zhao Zheng stood up and arched his hand: "Zhao Zheng didn't have any other intentions, he just felt that Chen Bao was pitiful, and I also had one thing that I needed a dead man to do." ”
The servants below looked at the two kings against the king, and leaned down to clean up the broken soup bowl with anxiety, and secretly looked at Shi Miyuan's face. found that there was no expression, and their hearts sank even more, which was Shi Miyuan's most terrifying expression.
"Oh? What do you want him to do? ”
Zhao Zheng handed the basket of eggs to Shi Miyuan and said, "This was given to me by an old man today, saying that it was a thank you to me for saving his son's life." His son, a carpenter, was exiled to Canton, where I needed a carpenter. Therefore, his son did not die of the miasma in Guangzhou, and his food and clothing were guaranteed. ”
"So what?" Shi Miyuan stopped his chopsticks and leaned his back back on the chair, as if to tell Zhao Zheng that he needed an explanation until he was satisfied.
"The old man's family is not rich, and although this basket of eggs is not worth anything, I can feel his deep love for licking calves and his gratitude to me. It gives me a sense of accomplishment...... This basket of eggs told me that the things I did were very meaningful to the people of the Great Song Dynasty, so today I came to ask Xianggong for a sense of accomplishment. ”
Shi Miyuan was silent for a while and sighed: "In the end, he is still young!" "The ghost of the human heart does not change because of your kindness. Zhao Zheng's childish thoughts are a little cute in Shi Miyuan's eyes, and it seems to make Zhao Zheng's attack power instantly zero, turning into a harmless child with a good heart.
Faced with a child's request, the elderly generally do not refuse, and Shi Miyuan is no exception. Probably because when all the old people see the situation of the child messing around, they will probably think of the self who was once as young and ignorant.
Chen Bao was insignificant to him, so he agreed: "Since the national teacher has spoken, I will push the boat with the water, but in the end, it only depends on the will of God." ”
Until this time, Zhao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, yes, it depends on the will of God.
Looking at the table full of delicacies, Shi Miyuan seemed to have no appetite. Zhao Zheng carried the basket of eggs and said to Shi Miyuan: "Xianggong's breakfast hasn't been eaten yet, it's better to rest for a while, I'll cook a dish for you!" ”
Shi Miyuan's eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise: "Do you know how to cook?" Then he frowned slightly and said, "The gentleman is far away." ”
Zhao Zheng smiled: "Xianggong, I am a Taoist, but I am not a gentleman." ”
Shi Miyuan was in a good mood for no reason when he heard it, and laughed: "Okay! In this case, the old man will wait, as long as he wants! ”
