The happy time of playing outside is always short-lived, and Zhao Xu's carriage has vaguely seen the outline of Bianliang City under the continuous rotation of the wheels, and he can finally go home. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After this short journey, Zhao Xu found that the order of the entire Great Song Empire did not seem to have become restless because of this war, and the closer he got to the capital, what Zhao Xu heard was the continuous and sincere praise of the people for Zhao Qi, the prince of the prison country, which made Zhao Xu, who was already in a good mood, even happier, but Zhao Xu also understood very well that the country in front of him was peaceful with singing and dancing, and there was still a lot of darkness in those places where the sun could not shine. This is a problem that no country can completely solve, because where there is light, there will also be darkness. As soon as he thought of this, the smile on Zhao Xu's face gradually disappeared, because he knew that he was not good enough.

With the leisurely carriage, Bianliang City appeared more and more fresh in front of his eyes, walking into the city gate, passing through the city, the lively market, the noisy crowd, and there was no difference from the past. Zhao Xu didn't get out of the carriage and wandered into the bustling market, because he missed his family.

The emperor traveled far away, the dragon drove back to the palace, the pomp was so small, except for Zhao Xu, I am afraid there was no one.

When Zhao Xu, who was dressed in casual clothes, suddenly appeared in front of his mother, the Empress Dowager Zhu, the Empress Dowager Zhu even thought that she was hallucinating, until Zhao Xu knelt down to his mother and saluted, the Empress Dowager Zhu jumped up from the stool as light as a swallow and pounced on Zhao Xu. There are even people who think that the Empress Dowager Zhu is still hiding peerless martial arts.

"Emperor, you're finally back!! Woo woo woo ...... "Empress Dowager Zhu, who used all her strength to hold Zhao Xu in her arms, her tears were like a dam that had opened the gates, and her tears flowed endlessly.

"Mom, can you let me go first, I can't breathe." Zhao Xu patted his mother's back and said.

After the excitement, the Empress Dowager Zhu let go of Zhao Xu, pulled him to the table and sat down to ask questions constantly, Zhao Xu knew that this was his mother's infinite care for him, so he also took the trouble to answer all his mother's questions.

"Huang'er, you said that you are true, why didn't you come back with Qi'er, Mu'er and the ministers at that time, and you had to take your other two sons to wander outside, you don't know, you didn't come back that day, and you were worried about your mother's death." Empress Dowager Zhu patted Zhao Xu's hand and complained to her son.

"Mother, you also know that although the emperor has countless eyes and ears, the emperor is also a human being, only this pair of eyes and a pair of ears grow on my own body, so my son needs to use his own eyes and ears to see and listen, everything in this world." Zhao Xu explained to his mother.

"Okay, you always have your reasons for doing things, don't care about your mother, you go and see your daughters-in-law, I think they should already know the news of your return."

"In that case, the minister will go to see them first, but I will come back for dinner in the evening, and I will eat the mystery you made yourself." Zhao Xu squeezed his eyes mischievously at his mother, and then left the Ciming Hall where Empress Dowager Zhu lived. Some people may think that Zhao Xu, as the emperor of a big empire, can have such a naughty and completely inconsistent behavior with the identity of the emperor, in fact, no matter how old people are, in the eyes of their parents, they will always be children, and they will always be the little guy who always hides in their arms and spoils, and if they are children and keep their innocence in front of their parents, then their parents will feel that they are equally young.

The news of the emperor's return to the palace was naturally as Zhao Xu and others walked into the gate of Bianliang City, and all the ministers entered the palace one after another to ask their emperor for peace, but Zhao Xu was the emperor, so he would not go to the main hall to wait for the ministers first, and at this time, Zhao Xu directly set up the middle palace and found his eldest wife, Queen Meng Xinyao, and all his wives and children were already waiting for him here, which really moved Zhao Xu a little.

Changed the emperor's regular clothes, simple greetings, Zhao Xu's eyes of love for the family filled everyone's hearts, Zhao Xu's home is like this, there are no kinds of intrigue between the family, and frankness, simplicity, care, harmony, these have become the main theme of Zhao Xu's entire family, because he is not paranoid about which child to love, and even more not paranoid about which wife's love, filial piety to his mother, respect for his wives, love for children, Zhao Xu is not busy with state affairs at all, And neglected even a little bit of love for them, for a simple example, as an emperor, Zhao Xu often washes his mother's feet, dresses his own women, and plays like an old naughty boy with his young children and grandchildren, and Zhao Xu has advocated family meals together from the beginning, and the whole family participates in larger activities, regardless of status, and he also did this, teaching by word and deed, so that the whole family is full of warm love.

"Xin Yao, everyone goes to the Queen Mother for dinner, let the children bring their wives and concubines, husbands, husbands' concubines, and children to come together, everyone will have a reunion dinner with the Queen Mother tonight, and go to the front hall to meet the ministers for the husband first, and after the dynasty is dispersed, I will go directly to the Ciming Palace." After meeting his family, Zhao Xu said to his queen Meng Xinyao.

"Okay husband, go ahead, the rest of the concubines will be arranged." Meng Xinyao said

Then, Zhao Xu pointed to his sons and said, "You guys, go to court with me." ”

Zhao Xu has always maintained the habit of not sitting in a sedan chair or riding in the palace, so at this time he took his sons and strode towards the Daqing Palace.

Entering the main hall, all the ministers are lined up on both sides according to the civil and military ranks, and the small table in front of everyone is placed with tea and two plates of pastries, which Zhao Xu prepared for all the ministers in accordance with the specifications of the Han and Tang dynasties, the Song Dynasty was originally an era of sitting and talking, economy, science and technology, humanities, rapid development, and since Zhao Xu came to this era, the chariot of the entire Song Empire has changed from moving slowly to advancing rapidly, so Zhao Xu doesn't care about the kind of "I sit, you stand" form of talk, In the words of an advertising slogan in later generations, "everyone is really good".

Long live the mountain, hundreds of officials sat down, Zhao Xu greeted for a while, and then listened to the praise of the hundred officials to themselves, and then it was the reward for the war, the reward for the money, the promotion of the promotion, all happy, and then ordered the six departments and nine Qing to divide the newly captured land into regions, pastoral officials, garrison generals, agricultural and commercial taxes, and various benefits, etc., etc., after a series of things, it was already the time of the sunset, Zhao Xu still carried forward the excellent quality of the door, and waved his sleeves, Let all the ministers go back to their respective homes to find their own mothers, and the ministers have long been accustomed to the habit of the emperor not inviting everyone to dinner if he has nothing to do, so he didn't disturb Zhao Xu anymore on the day of reunion with his family.

To say that the nightlife of the Song Dynasty is still very colorful, because the Song Dynasty did not have a curfew, not to mention those places that specialize in night activities, even those pavilions and water pavilions, restaurants and teahouses, are also operated all night, and Bianliang City is the center of the entire Song Empire, and it has almost become a city that never sleeps.

After the end of the war against the Seljuks, Zhao Xu did not relax the reform of the entire Song Empire, because he was afraid that one day after he left this world, the Han nation would sink again, and at the same time, he also knew that feudal rule would be completely replaced by various republics, federalism, constitutional monarchies and other political situations in the future, and he also wanted the country he ruled to continue until thousands of generations, and the form of feudal monarchy rule politics would become a stumbling block to the further development of the Great Song Empire, so, Zhao Xu must make a thorough reform while he is still living in this world. The republic and the federal system are completely inconsistent with Zhao Xu's thinking, which will never be chosen, so the constitutional monarchy has become Zhao Xu's first choice.

The establishment of a political party, the real election of the rulers in line with their own will by the people themselves, and the real supervision of all the rulers by all taxpayers, the government of this country will maintain the integrity of the government, and as for the constraints of the royal family, I am afraid that only Zhao Xu himself can do this.
