In the vertical arch hall, Song Zhenzong instructed Wang Zeng and Zhang Zhibai: "My emperor, although he is young, is blessed with heaven-given thaumaturgy, and he should not be underestimated. Yesterday, I proposed that the environment of the capital is chaotic and smelly, and it is easy to breed diseases, so I want to improve the environment of the capital. The two Aiqing, both of whom are important ministers in the court, are knowledgeable and hope to help them with their hearts. ”

"Wechen obeys!" Wang Zeng and Zhang Zhibai replied in unison.

Song Zhenzong waved his hand and said to them: "Two Aiqing, I will go to Kunning Palace to see Emperor I in a while, and take care of things." ”

"The ministers are under the order, and the ministers are retiring!" Wang Zhang and the others left the Vertical Arch Hall and went to Kunning Palace.

It is said that this Wang and Zhang are not simple characters, they were both prime ministers during the Song Renzong period in history. At this time, Wang Zeng served as the main guest of Shangshu, that is, relative to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, in charge of etiquette, and the transformation of the capital required him to educate the people. Zhang Zhibai is currently a waiter in the Ministry of Workers and can be responsible for civil engineering.

"The ministers are late for the order, Your Highness forgives the sin!" Wang and Zhang met Zhao Yingyi and sang in unison.

"I don't know what arrangements His Highness has, but the ministers will obey the orders."

"The two ministers have worked hard, they are diligent in state affairs, and they have to work hard for the affairs of His Royal Highness, and I am very ashamed in my heart!" Zhao Yingyi has won the good character of the Chinese nation to respect the old and love the young, and never forget to respect the elderly.

"I have been thinking carefully for many days, and I have a copy of the plan, the two ministers please look at it, if there is any discomfort, please propose to discuss again." Zhao Yingfu handed the written plan to the two to read.

After a cup of tea, the two ministers had already finished reading the plan.

Zhao Yingfu began to explain to the two: "Presumably the two ministers have already finished reading this plan, so His Royal Highness will explain the relevant content to the two of them." This plan has two main aspects, one is to promulgate relevant health regulations, educate the people, and standardize behavior and habits. Second, plan the sewage system in the city, build a sewage treatment system, delineate the location of garbage dumping, centralize the disposal of garbage, and arrange sanitation and maintenance personnel. This is the relevant regulations and urban construction plan drawn up by His Highness, and the two ministers will discuss it and then start implementing it immediately. ”

Soon, the city walls were surrounded by a crowd, and a scholar-like figure was explaining the official documents posted to the surrounding crowd.

I only heard this person say loudly: "Everyone, be quiet, wait for Xiaosheng to explain this official document to you." This official document said that today, the Qingguo Gong wrote to the emperor to improve the environment of the capital, and His Majesty the Emperor appointed him as the Gyeonggi Transformation Envoy, with the assistance of Wang Zeng, the main guest of the Shangshu, and Zhang Zhibai, the waiter of the Ministry of Works. From now on, everyone must pay attention to hygiene, bathe and change clothes frequently, no open defecation or spitting, each household sewage and garbage must be poured into the designated place, and the officials of each neighborhood are responsible for supervision, if there is a violation, a fine will be light, and the heavy will be hard labor. ”

Hearing that they would be punished, everyone suddenly boiled, and all kinds of clamors came and went. The scholar roared vigorously a few times before suppressing the field, and then continued to read: "Don't panic, everyone, what is written on the official document is clear. In the future, the imperial court will send officials to teach everyone the rules, as long as they follow the rules, they will evaluate the families or shops with advanced hygiene every month, and they will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver and notified to the whole city. I hope you will supervise each other. ”

The people everywhere understood the content of the official document and slowly dispersed, and the people of the whole city began to gossip about this environmental transformation and sanitation regulations. At the moment, they are only imagining in their minds, and more people are going for the hundred taels of bonus, and no one has thought or thought about the changes that these measures will bring.

Within a few days, the Ministry of Industry summoned craftsmen and small workers to start construction according to Zhao's plan. I saw ditches with stone slabs at the bottom and on both sides, and thick stones at the top. These ditches run along the streets, with entrances to each house to pour water, fences to block large chunks of garbage, and then converge on the avenues to flow out of the city. At the outlet, several large ponds are under construction. Sewage from the city flows into these ponds through ditches, where it is sedimented and discharged into the surrounding forests, where it can be collected for fertilizer. The sewage of this era is basically domestic sewage, there is no chemical pollution, and it is the best soil fertility agent after simple treatment.

A month later, with the strong support of the Great Song Emperor and the efforts of officials at all levels, the transformation of the capital was finally coming to an end. The capital has a new look, and there is a public toilet standing at a certain distance from each street, and simple garbage bins made of large wooden barrels can be seen everywhere. The officials of the neighborhood who have undergone emergency training from the Ministry of Rites are leading everyone to familiarize themselves with the various changes and guide them to abide by various rules.

The Ministry of Rites has also made use of the various conspicuous places in the city to post easy-to-understand and catchy phrases to help people get acquainted with the new health regulations.

"Pooping and urinating in the toilet and protecting the water source is key; Garbage should be concentrated, and mosquito and fly control is the focus; Meals must be cooked, and moldy food should be discarded; Wash your hands before eating, and pay attention to hygiene habits; Temporary shelters should be ventilated, bedding and clothes should be washed frequently; If a disease is found, it should be reported, and early prevention and early treatment should be effective; Health knowledge should be mastered, and psychological adjustment should be relied on; Caring for health is powerful, and disasters and epidemics are invincible," children all over the city sang these plain words and became a new force of propaganda.

On the same day, Song Zhenzong heard that the renovation of the capital had been completed, and led the ministers to inspect it. Seeing the changes in the capital, everyone was full of emotion, the stench of the past was gone, the people also knew that it was convenient to go to the public toilet, the littering was also persuaded by the patrol officials, the streets became tidy, and there were old people carrying baskets to pick up garbage on the side of the road from time to time. Everything seems so harmonious.

The next morning, Zhao was summoned to the court.

In the main hall, the ministers stood solemnly on both sides, and Zhao Yingfu occupied the middle. Song Zhenzong sat on the dragon chair with a golden sword, and after the ministers finished bowing, he waved his hand and said, "Zhong Aiqing is flat!" Today's morning dynasty mainly discussed the results of Qingguogong's transformation of the capital. Ministers, feel free to speak your mind. ”

Immediately, a minister who was busy patting his ass stood up and said loudly: "Weichen thinks that His Royal Highness Qingguo Gong has done very well, and the capital has a new look, which will help improve the image of my Great Song Dynasty, very good!" ”

The ministers who didn't grab the sofa and pat on the back all said that what they said upstairs was right, and they were on the top floor.

Song Zhenzong was in a good mood, and waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, "Next, let's all listen to what my emperor has to say!" ”

Zhao Ying gave his father a big gift, and then said: "Father, according to the thaumaturgical teaching, Weichen is not good and easy to breed diseases, so he decided to start from the capital to improve the sanitary environment. As my father and the ministers had observed, the sons and daughters mainly discharged sewage through drained waterways and treated it appropriately to improve the fertility of the land, set up public toilets for pedestrians, and placed garbage cans for the collection of solid waste for unified disposal. Arrange patrol officials to be responsible for maintaining hygiene, supervise the people, and set up advanced health awards to guide the people to accept new things. Summoning elderly people who are still in good health to be responsible for tasks such as picking up garbage and cleaning the streets, which is not physically demanding, and can also give them a subsidy to fill the household. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Yingfu looked at Wang Zeng and Zhang Zhibai, and continued: "The success of this transformation plan depends on the great help of Wang Zeng and Zhang Zhibai. Erchen just wrote out the plan, and the whole implementation process depended on the dedication and hard work of the two adults and all the adults, and Erchen did not dare to take credit. ”

Wang Zeng and Zhang Zhibai came out of the ranks, and said: "This matter depends on His Royal Highness's strategy, and the ministers and others only follow the plan and dare not ask for credit." ”

Song Zhenzong stood up and said loudly: "All the ministers are good, diligent in state affairs, and dedicated, I am very pleased. Zhao, the son of the emperor, benefited from the improvement of the health of the capital, and was specially awarded to the king of Wei, and entered the middle book order to participate in state affairs. All the meritorious heroes are commended according to the rules. ”

At this point, Zhao Huili finally obtained the qualification to attend the court meeting and had the right to speak in the court.

After the next court, the ministers from all walks of life hurriedly came to pat Zhao Ying's ass, and praised him all over the place, saying as if there was something in the sky and nothing on the earth. It took a lot of effort for Zhao to send them away, and then he pulled Zhang Zhibai to talk to Wang Zeng.

"Thanks to the two adults for their great help in this renovation of the capital, I am deeply grateful to this king! There will be a lot of disturbance in the future, I hope the two adults Haihan! After speaking, Zhao Ying bowed deeply to the two.

"King Wei is serious, this is the duty of a minister. His Royal Highness King Wei has thaumaturgy at a young age, and the ministers really admire it. In the future, if His Highness has any orders, the ministers will definitely go all out! "Wang Zeng and Zhang Zhibai were indeed thundered by Zhao. I never thought that a five-year-old kid knew so much, the key is that during the entire transformation process, Zhao benefited from many things that they didn't know about the well-read ministers. People in this era are still struggling with their belly, how can they have the energy to study hygiene, and it is not unusual for them not to know.

Unconsciously, Zhao benefited from two more diehards who were charging into battle.
