Chapter 62: Wife and Husband Rong 28
The origin of the dragon drum
The emperor was shocked when he saw it, and so did the queen, this, are these written by a nine-year-old child? Isn't that too wicked? The queen wanted to say something, but the emperor glanced at her, and she shut up and took a step back.
The emperor first took the box of Nongsang, which was written about the origin and planting method of potatoes and corn, or the yield data per mu after the experiment, all of which were signed by the county magistrate, Lord Zheng. This mu yield is high and it is scary to death. The emperor then saw a small book with a plan, opened it, and said three sentences: If you want to plant well, you must know more about the resources of the land and need professional talents. Second, the introduction of more overseas seeds, can be trial. 3. Nongsang watches the sky and eats, and the prediction of the weather is best used in the folk.
The emperor looked at the sharp face characters in his somewhat delicate air, and felt that this little county lord was not as simple as he thought. In just three sentences, I want him to see the commercial box below.
So he neatly opened the commercial box, which was a peach blossom brewing and peach blossom cake workshop, as well as some essential oil aromatherapy recipes, which, with these, the emperor frowned and thought, these are really worth the taxes of the two fiefdoms, right?
Then he found a pamphlet, which also contained only three sentences, first, the status of merchants is too low, and it can be solved by the fact that the descendants of merchants can participate in the imperial examination. Second, taxes can be diversified, peasant households only have land, watch the sky for food, and have less silver in their hands than merchants. 3. The royal bank, which can lend money and deposit silver for interest.
The emperor saw these three, it was really a good strategy, and he was looking at it, but he saw that it was gone, how to operate these? I grabbed it in my heart, and I wanted to ask the Queen Mother, but I thought that there was one more that I hadn't finished reading, so I guess there should be an answer.
He opened the third speed, a drawing of a chair, and a drawing of a child's toy. At the bottom, he was anxious to read it, and there were only two sentences, first, most of the people in the world are craftsmen, and they are from the people.
2. The imperial examination for talents can be held, and the examination content includes agriculture, commercial arithmetic, and clay craftsmen.
The emperor didn't know much about this, and he didn't need those talents with special abilities, so he didn't take it to heart. But he was intrigued by what was in the first two boxes.
After seeing it, the Queen Mother also had a bottom in her heart, knowing that this Xiang'er was afraid that she had given him a few good ideas. Then he said to the queen and the emperor: "Let's go back, the meal has been eaten, the piano has been listened to, and the good things have been taken, so kneel down, the mourning family is also tired, and the sky is almost dark." ”
The emperor was about to say something, but when he looked outside, it was dark, and it was almost dark. Knowing that it was late, he left with the queen with the three boxes.
The Queen Mother took Mama Yun's hand and got up, and said with emotion: "I don't know if I can live to see Xiang'er get married, and give these to the emperor, I hope that one day the mourning family will not be there to give this child some shelter, those names and fiefs are all false, with these three boxes of things, she can earn these by herself, but she took it out, and the mourning family will pave the way for her." ”
Mama Yun smiled and helped the Queen Mother stroll through the peach forest, thinking that there were not many children in the palace, and the concubines were competing for favor, the Queen Mother was really bored, if it weren't for the little county lord to help find a way to solve it, I was afraid that she would be sick again, and the Queen Mother was not sick in the change of season this year.
If Shizuka is probably thinking that you are my biggest boss, if you don't protect your body, if you die early, the emperor will sell me again, who should I go to? So the Queen Mother is thinking too much.
At this time, in the Palace of Heart Cultivation, the emperor wrote a holy decree to canonize Shizuka, and then asked people to find Prince Rui to come over.
Prince Rui only replied outside the door, even if he was not afraid, but he touched the blood book. So he didn't dare to enter the palace, the emperor didn't help but force him when he saw him like this, and only told him what he said to the queen mother at night, and asked him to go to the decree and pick up people in person, don't be too anxious, just return to Beijing within 20 days.
Prince Rui was ordered to go with the holy decree, and the emperor was still sitting in the study and did not leave, looking at the business side, what he lacked most now was silver. These three suggestions were timely rain, but his suspicious nature began again, this little county lord is so smart that he can't marry her casually, but then he thought that the little county lord's marriage was in the queen mother's place, and he got these, that is, there is no possibility of interfering in the marriage of the little county lord anymore, so he can only borrow the queen's hand and recommend a few people to see it at that time.
The emperor thought that the queen mother said that Mo Yan was so small, so he would calculate to stay in the palace by himself and find a helper for herself in the palace. He thought that Zhu Mama was even more annoyed, alas, he blamed himself for the soft roots of his ears, and listened to the concubine stabbing twice, which made him feel that the Queen Mother was too harsh on him, and hinted that the Queen Mother was too much.
Hey, this seems a little wrong, when did this concubine have such a big opinion about the Queen Mother? The emperor began to be suspicious again.
In the princess's courtyard, Xiaolian listened to the dragon's groan when she was walking in the courtyard during the day, and when she looked up, she saw the blood-colored dragon type, and she was still thinking in her heart, this world is a fantasy, right? There is still a red dragon coming out?
At this time, the two mothers-in-law guarding the corner gate in the courtyard also saw it and started talking.
"Hey, hey, look, it's a dragon, but it's weird, it's blood-red."
"Well, what do you know? When I was a child, I heard my father say that the founding emperor of our Zhao State was a great person, and the queen was even more strange, and she turned into a phoenix empty-handed, and this dragon was nothing. ”
"Old sister, what you said is the same as the truth, tell me about it."
"Hey, don't push me, I'm about 70 people who are about to push me like this."
"Yes, yes, you're almost 70 years old, and you're still staying in this courtyard, why haven't you gone out?"
"You know what? It's delicious to eat and drink here, I'm not tired from work, I'm too lazy to move, you see that the princess has to suffer the sin of a concubine when she marries, I don't want to, so I don't go out of the palace. ”
"Hey, old sister, don't talk too far, talk, talk about the dragon."
"Hey, yes, look at my memory, well, let's just talk about the dragon, this dragon, it's the dragon drum made by the queen herself, right?
According to my grandfather's life, he was 98 years old at the time, and at that time, because he had made great contributions on the battlefield and was seriously injured, he was rewarded by Emperor Zhao with a pill, saying that it was made by the founding queen, and it was specially rewarded to the generals and soldiers who had made great contributions on the battlefield.
After he took the pill, all the injuries on his body were healed overnight, because he was young at that time, and he thought that he was in good health, so he got better quickly, but the doctor his little servant found said that he was all well, and he couldn't tell that he was on the verge of death.
The emperor saw his writing, thinking that he would not live long, even if the founding queen gave medicine, he would not be able to save him, so he approved it and gave him a large amount of gold.
That's why our family is qualified to enter the palace as a palace maid, understand? ”
"Hey, old sister, you're off topic again, dragon, dragon, that dragon drum"
This Xiaolian is also tired of hiding and eavesdropping, listening to the old woman say that she hasn't talked about the topic for a long time, but it is not good to come out openly to accuse, so she has to secretly pull the leaves on the branches.
"Alas, don't worry, my grandfather returned to his hometown with the money, and the old family was happy, but the news leaked, my grandfather's fourth grandfather was killed by the gangsters guarding the silver, and my grandfather was sad to sue, but he couldn't appear in front of the government, he was a dying person, if the emperor knew, this is a big crime of the nine clans, and finally let my grandfather go to the capital to beat the dragon drum, this is my grandfather's arrangement, as long as it is knocked, the emperor will personally meet, review on the spot, and supervise the trial of hundreds of civil and military officials.
Later, later, my grandfather never came back. Later, I heard that it was to beat the drum to pass three levels, and the last level was death. ”
"Then, didn't your grandfather know that he would die if he knocked? It's a pity that your ancestor Jiu Ye died like this. ”
"No, no, he didn't knock, he heard that most of the people who beat the drums were dead, so he didn't go, and stayed in the capital to do business.
If my grandfather had known, he wouldn't have let him go, but he sent someone to find out about it. ”
"So what does this have to do with the dragon?"
"This drum, it was there at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China three hundred years ago, my grandfather had it in his lifetime, there have been all kinds of rumors for hundreds of years, no one has ever seen what happens after beating the drum, only the people in the palace know, because the founding queen has recorded what will happen after the drum is beaten.
I have been in the palace for 50 years, and I am fortunate to hear the old lady say that only those who have real grievances can beat the drum, and after knocking, there will be a blood dragon flying into the sky, and the longer the flight, the greater the grievance, and the greater the grievance, which means that there is a big injustice. But a hundred years ago, someone framed the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother couldn't produce evidence, and everyone didn't believe the Queen Mother. It was the emperor who forced the complainant to beat the drum, and at that time, I am afraid that few people believed that beating the drum could judge the case.
In the end, the emperor asked the founding queen to write and let the Ministry of Rites and the first assistant minister jointly check it, and it was determined that it was a false accusation. ”
"Oh, so today's blood dragon is someone who has successfully beaten the drum? Also flew two laps. ”
When Xiaolian heard this, she was also shocked, who can sue successfully? She was also a little flustered, so she quickly retreated to the path she was going to take.
The old woman, who was almost 70 years old, heard the movement, her eyes flashed secretly, and the younger one also heard it, so she shook her head and said, "You, you are such a big grade, and you still have this temper, no matter how you say it, you can't change it." ”
"You know what? I watched the princess grow up, this kind of girl who doesn't take our palace maid seriously, it's the first time I've seen it, fortunately, I have already boarded the dragon drum in front of the agate, otherwise she would have died today, and she wouldn't have seen the emperor. Poor Mama Zhu, pay for the palace all your life! has ended up like this, why isn't it chilling?
Besides, did I say anything? Today, I'm just chatting with you, let's talk about what Denglong Drum is. ”
"Okay, okay, I can't say you, I'll help you go back, if the emperor took you into the palace back then, wouldn't you? You are dead-eyed, you have to rely on it and don't leave, the child is also sent to the palace, and the Prince Rui doesn't know if it's good or not. He shook his head.
The old woman shook her head, her eyes flashing with something, and she looked at the sky with a desperate expression. "Let's go, that's the old emperor's calendar, it was just that the emperor drank too much, and I wasn't young at the time, it was an accident, if he didn't hand it over to the palace, could he get a good one? Don't mention it again in the future. Let's go, it's getting dark. ”
