"Xiao Jiu, did you say that Zhao Chengzong did it intentionally?" Pan Weide said. From the bottom of his heart, he still doesn't want today's incident to happen, the emperor is too protective of this brother-in-law.

"Who knows?"

It stands to reason that no, Song Jiu's entire plan is not even clear to Zhao Kuangyi, before Hezhou and Henan are not connected, Hebei is also a beneficiary, and Zhao Pu does not need to do it to himself for the time being. But it's hard to say, or Zhao Chengzong also committed a red eye disease, deliberately ran into Wang Jixun, and then released the news, and handed over the diamond to Wang Jixun, making himself uncomfortable. That's it, Song Jiu has to be patient for the time being, Wang Jixun is not afraid, Zhao Pu is too terrible.

When she came to Song's house, Pan Li'er was sitting in the back talking to Zhu San's daughter-in-law.

Seeing them coming back, he nervously came over and asked, "What did Uncle Guo say?" ”

"The habitual son is not filial," Song Jiu sighed, Wang Jixun asked his subordinates to harm Ma Renyu, Zhao Kuangyin did not deal with it, and in turn took Ma Renyu out of Zhimi Prefecture, which is not considered a promotion, Ma Renyu is a real colonel, and he is in command, and there are only more than 30 people in the entire Song Dynasty, just a transfer at the same level. Let him avoid trouble, how can such a habit not be a bad thing? Take a look, so many Yannai, including Fu Yanqing's children, Gao Huaide's children, and Shi Baozheng, are all afraid of Wang Jixun.

Song Jiu lightly told what had happened.

Fighting brothers, fathers and sons, facing such a murderous uncle, Pan Weide actually dared to pull his collar, Song Jiu was still very moved in his heart. Pan Li'er stroked her chest and said: "The two kings and Zhao Chengzong are also mixed in, that's good, that's good." ”

"Little sister, go home." Pan Weide said.

"I ......"

"You haven't gotten married yet, so it's not good to run often."

Song Jiu watched with a smile as his brother-in-law pulled Pan Li'er home.

……

The wind was howling outside. Yuping got up early and boiled water for Song Jiu. Fortunately, with a coal stove, boiling water becomes convenient. Then he called Song Jiu up to wash and comb, generally Song Jiu did not want to be served, at most occasionally asked Yuping to comb his hair. If you don't shave your hair, your hair is too long and you have to tie it up, which is very troublesome. Song Jiu brushed his teeth and washed his face, and Yuping made millet porridge.

Song Jiu complained while washing his face: "It's too cold outside." ”

Not only was it cold, but he also woke up so early, which caused his biological clock to be confused.

In fact, he was a judge for thirteen months. Song Jiu didn't take it seriously, the judge only had the right to review, not the right to deliberate, what he saw was a bunch of boring data, and Song Jiu didn't have the consciousness of being an official at all. But Yuping is very serious, especially in the morning court, every morning court, she doesn't dare to sleep all night. Fortunately, there were many festivals in the Song Dynasty. I don't know how many big festivals and small festivals there are, and I can take nearly three months off in a year. Plus Song Jiu went on a trip, thirteen months. Including today, there are only fifteen early dynasties.

Usually on duty or sacrifice does not count, so you don't have to get up very early. Like Song Jiuyi's usual living time, he caught up. Then go home early in the afternoon.

After a while, the millet porridge emitted a fragrance, and Song Jiu drank the millet porridge. Eating cooked chicken, he said while eating, "Yuping." In a few days, someone will send congratulatory gifts one after another, you don't accept it, let Cui'er accept it. If the villagers of Lianghe or the parents of the students come over, let Cui'er tell them that the congratulatory gift should not exceed 50 wen. ”

"Okay."

"But every family has to send both."

"Why?"

"One is your gift, you don't have your mother's family, let the people of Lianghe be your mother's family."

"Kuro."

"However, there is one that must be accepted after May next year."

Yuping looked at Song Jiu in bewilderment.

"I thought about it carefully, if all of them go to Shundian for a wedding banquet, just the villagers of Lianghe don't know how many, and the wine table will definitely not be placed, especially the many nobles on the Pan family's side, if there is any conflict in words, it will not be beautiful. Therefore, in those ordinary wine shops and wine shops in Hezhou, we will pick a good day to hold a wedding banquet in Shundian, and at that time we will feast on the villagers in Shundian. In this way, some of your grievances will be reduced, that is, you have to wait. ”

"Jiulang, no, I'm just a concubine."

"A wife and concubine are just a kind of title, whether it is a wife or a concubine, in my heart you are always my family."

"Kuro."

"Come, hug, I'll go to the morning court." Song Jiu wiped his mouth with a towel, gave a warm hug to Yuping, and rode away to the imperial city.

Entering the waiting courtyard, many ministers looked at Song Jiu strangely, several things happened in Hezhou yesterday, the transfer of profits from the glazed workshop, a large amount of dividends in advance, Wang Jixun's blackmail, and Song Jiu's punishment. But it's the latter two.

On the morning court.

At the end of the year, the summary report, the plan for the coming year, there is no such statement now, but it is similar, and there are more twists and turns. Some things are important, some things are not. At present, there are many military generals in the DPRK and China, and they are not military generals, and many of them are military scribes, and there are infighting, but they are relatively concise. This is not like a hundred years later, under the teaching of scholars, the etiquette has become extremely cumbersome, and the method of attacking the other party with a long speech has changed. If Sima Guang had worn it a hundred years ago, he would have been disappointed and wept bitterly. If these officials travel to a hundred years from now, they can be driven crazy by those literati. In fact, Song Jiu agreed with this point, although government affairs are gradually becoming redundant, they should be more efficient than in the future.

It seems like a lot of twists and turns, but it doesn't take long for them to say something about the same.

When he was preparing to disperse the dynasty, the edict was announced, and Song Jiu had a dispute for profit, which had a bad impact and was fined for one year.

Look at who is fined salary, if it is an official like Zhao Wei, who usually has good conduct, is honest, and has no industry or other sources of income, the salary penalty is fatal, Zhao Pu used this trick to force Zhao Wei to take the initiative to step down, otherwise he will be fined twice at a time, and Zhao Wei's family will have to drink the northwest wind. However, it didn't matter to Song Jiu. The penalty for one year's salary is a drizzle on Song Jiu.

It's not a serious penalty.

Song Jiu also expected that Wang Jixun would stop continuing to expand his shares, and Wang Jixun would definitely find Zhao Kuangyin. Zhao Kuangyin can't say that you did the right thing, can blackmail still be encouraged? This is the crime of Wang Jixun, if others do this, as Zhao Kuangyi said, the huge number of 20,000 is possible, beheading and abandoning the city. But to comfort, at the same time, Wang Jixun is notorious, and he is also afraid that other ministers will follow him to make trouble. So he punished himself slightly.

Song Jiu was still disappointed.

Don't say that the diamond was given to you by Qian Yu, that is, the diamond was bought by Wang Jixun. There's nothing wrong with doing it yourself. Fortunately, Hezhou can't do without himself for the time being. Otherwise, you may be released.

In the next dynasty, Chu Zhaofu said to Song Jiu: "You can do it." ”

"Envoy Chu, I don't want to, if I'm in a hurry, I'll really withdraw from Hezhou, it's not for fun."

"You said that Your Majesty was unfair."

Song Jiu couldn't say that Zhao Kuangyin was unfair, and said: "Envoy Chu, my official salaries are all rewarded by His Majesty, and His Majesty is only fined for one year. An dares to say that it is unfair, I am worried that His Majesty will harm Uncle Guo by doing this. ”

"Song Jiu, the Wang family is thin, and the country's husband is old and has a son, so it is inevitable that he will be a little favored. Uncle Guo was late to have a son, and he only had a son, and he was only three years old today, so His Majesty couldn't bear to deal with it. ”

"Envoy Chu. Don't talk about it, what good children do you think Uncle Guo can teach? But Song Jiu is also afraid of accidents, this is a neurosis, God knows what he can do. What's worse is that he even stabbed the sky, and Zhao Kuangyin covered him with a giant hand in the back. Song Jiu simply rented a house in Hezhou and asked the fifth sister and the fifth brother-in-law to hand over the inn to the supervisor to take care of. Moved to Riverbank together. Anyway, the three sisters each gave 500 taels of silk and let them buy the deed shares. This dividend is enough for them. I wanted to give a little more, but I didn't want it. Then let them go to the river island and take care of some things by the way. Your own family can rest assured. As for the small inn, if Wang Jixun is happy, he will smash it.

asked Guo Da to go to the shop and invited two people back, one is called Ma Chun, the other is called Wu Ping, how good his skills are, Song Jiu doesn't know what to do, but he must be shrewd, he must prepare an empty house to put the dowry, squeeze it first, and let them help watch the family.

If you are in Hezhou, you are basically safe. Unless Wang Jixun forcibly came with a regular army, it is estimated that he would not have the courage.

A few days later, the fifth brother-in-law's family moved over.

Even the yamen are afraid, let alone their family.

The fifth sister first complained about Song Jiu, but Song Jiu was submissive. Then ask someone to engrave the second book. I didn't print much, I only planned to print 2,000 copies, 1,000 copies would be reserved for teaching and practice in the future, and the other 1,000 copies would be sold to the outside world, and the price was still not expensive. The second year came out, as he expected, there was no unsalable, no best-selling, some people bought, or the kind of buy that I don't know why.

On the contrary, there are more and more people in the upper reaches of the riverbank, and they never stop from day to night. Many shops have brought more popularity, and the song theater has also been installed with glass. This time it's red glass, and the main building is round, and there are two floors on top, which are bigger than the circle below, like wearing a big hat on it, or like a red mushroom. It was a place for formal performances, with a total of five floors, and the lower three floors were not high, nor did they dare to go high, otherwise they would not be able to hear the singing voices of the performers below on the third floor. The fourth floor is where rehearsals and props are placed. The fifth floor is a place for guests to drink tea and rest. Also, a three-story restaurant. There is a two-story kitchen on the side, but there is also a storage room underground, and then a layer of circular undulating waves is placed on the ground to let the light in. And the horses, the places where the artists rested, and so on, and so on in six or seven small buildings, including the courtyard walls, where there were small round mushrooms at intervals, but below were round mirrors, and above were red roofs. There are many murals of theatrical scenes on the walls of the courtyard. The inside is not renovated and is temporarily closed to the public. But the shape is very beautiful.

Including the small courtyards on the southwest side, they are also very elegantly built.

Therefore, it has become one of the first attractions for tourists from other places to visit, not the first, the first is the Royal Street, and you can also see the Imperial City outside, the royal attraction to people is huge now. The second is Xiangguo Temple and Hezhou, and the status of the two is almost the same. Xiangguoji Temple is also lively.

And as Song Jiu and the merchants expected, many shops began to trade in large quantities. This is just the beginning, and the business atmosphere here will be more developed in the future.

The location of the eldest sister's store is not good, and I have been worried about renting it, but it is okay after opening. At least it is stronger than her small wine shop, not to disappoint her too much, besides, Song Jiu also said that there will be a square in front of it in the future, and once it is arranged, there will be more tourists. After the actual store opened, Zhao Chengzong was the most nervous, worried that the business would be robbed. However, he also wondered that Hebei's business was increasing instead of decreasing. He can't be blamed, even Zhao Pu may not be able to understand the benign interaction after the formation of the business circle.

In this calm atmosphere, the Pan and Song families were silently arranging. The Song family's house was tight, which also forced the Pan family to simplify the complexity, otherwise a large amount of dowry would pass, and the Song family would not be able to let go.

On the tenth day of the first month, Song Jiu returned home from the third division.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the house, he saw more than two dozen horses tied outside, and he immediately turned over and dismounted, afraid that something would happen. As soon as he entered the door, Dr. Yan, who was basking in the sun and drinking tea on the balcony, shouted, "Song Jiu, General Pan is here." ”

Pan Mei finally returned to the capital. (To be continued......)
