Chapter 734: Father and Son

At three o'clock, the dawn is gone, the whole sky is more hazy, the cool breeze blows, and then a few points of rain fall, after a few days of bright sunshine, this spring rain finally came late, the rain from the haze of the sky sprinkled, so that the civil and military courtiers who had been waiting outside the Zhengde Gate for a long time were drenched. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info{/.}

Shen Ao came here on a horse, this time he didn't prepare a robe, this weather can change, where did he think that there would be a rain at dawn? led the horse to the side of Zhengde Gate, and simply found an adult's sedan chair to sit in.

As a result, the adult was drenched in the rain outside, Shen Ao rested in this sedan chair, seeing that more and more people gathered over, there were already many people who came to congratulate Shen Ao on the joy of marriage, Shen Ao opened the sedan curtain and greeted one by one.

The palace gate finally opened, and the courtiers rushed in, the first was the crown prince Zhao Huan, Zhao Huan was wearing a costume and his face was not shocked, but he just glanced at the deep palace behind the palace gate. After Zhao Huan entered, none of the civil and military officials followed, they were all waiting at the door, some deliberately laughing with people, and some biting their lips and thinking about their hearts.

It wasn't until Shen arrogantly got out of the sedan chair and braved the drizzle to go in that everyone seemed to remember that they should enter the palace, and they rushed in.

The ninety-nine steps leading to the martial arts hall have been dripping with a lot of stagnant water, and there are many attendants who brave the rain to clean here, and each jade step is standing in the front of the palace, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, wet and motionless.

Zhao Huan had already entered the hall, but Shen Ao was still grinding, and when he walked halfway, he suddenly raised his eyes to see the weather, and couldn't help but say, "It's raining so hard!" ”

The civil and military officials at the back had no choice but to stop, and as a result, there were many people behind them.

Shen Ao took a few steps further, everyone followed again, Shen Ao suddenly stopped again, and said, "This rain seems to be getting heavier and heavier, I don't know if the clothes at home have been collected." ”

Many people smiled bitterly, and Li Bangyan, who was standing behind Shen Ao, couldn't bear it anymore at this time, and said in a deep voice: "The court discussion cannot be delayed, what is Your Highness doing slowly?" ”

Shen Ao glanced back at Li Bangyan, who was like a chicken in soup, smiled slightly, and said, "If Li Men is in a hurry, you can take the first step." ”

Li Bangyan couldn't help but blow his beard and stare at him, wanting to go first, but he felt that it was a bit too much to cross the line in front of everyone, the courtiers had rules for entering the palace, and they came according to seniority, of course the prince was the first, looking at the court, who else could compete for the second place with the king of Pingxi? Li Bangyan has been in the dynasty all his life, and such rules have long been adhered to, and this habit cannot be changed.

Shen Ao saw that Li Bangyan didn't move, so he simply clasped his hands and said with a smile: "What? Isn't Li Men one step ahead? It seems that Li Menxia is not in a hurry, this is just right, it is rare for you and me to have such Yaxing, so why don't we stand for a while? Brother Li, have you had breakfast? ”

Li Bangyan turned his face aside and ignored him. /./.

Shen Ao said lightly: "It would be a pity if Li Menxia hadn't eaten it yet, maybe he wouldn't be able to eat it again in the future." ”

Li Bangyan felt that the muscles on his face twitched involuntarily, although he looked cold, but the whole person seemed to have aged a lot in the rain, even his body was rickety, and there was a mouthful of phlegm on the monkey's head, and he wanted to ridicule him, but he found that he couldn't say a word.

In the martial arts hall, Zhao Ji had already arrived, his crown was in a crown, he was sitting in danger, his eyes were half open and half closed, and his face was a little mocking. His gaze swept over the empty hall, pursed his lips, and rested his hand on the imperial case, silent but with a majesty overlooking the world.

Zhao Huan stepped into the hall, only to find something unusual, raised his eyes and saw Zhao Ji on the golden palace, and couldn't help but think, his father is late on weekdays, why did he come so early today?

The civil and military officials behind him didn't see the shadow yet, Zhao Huan had no choice but to bite the bullet, walked to the hall alone, knelt down on his knees, and after kneeling three times and knocking nine times, he said loudly: "Erchen has seen his father, and his father is healthy and prolonged." ”

Zhao Ji sat on the dragon collapse and didn't say anything, a pair of eyes fell on Zhao Huan like a knife, staring at Zhao Huan tightly, motionless.

Zhao Huan didn't dare to get up, didn't dare to raise his head, he was overwhelmed by Zhao Ji's cold gaze, his five bodies were almost prostrate on the gold bricks, and the cold sweat on his forehead was like an injection.

What's going on? At this time, my father should have called himself flat, right......

Zhao Huan couldn't help but feel like a thief, the whole person seemed to be frozen, a pair of eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look up directly, this feeling was really a bit like sitting on pins and needles.

Zhao Ji was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "I am naturally healthy, and I can live for a few more years." ”

Zhao Huan was startled, kowtowed again, and said: "The son only hopes that his father can enjoy the country for ten thousand years and live with heaven and earth." ”

Zhao Ji had mockery on his face, the prince said this to the Son of Heaven, how many dynasties were sincere? Zhao Ji said lightly: "If I enjoy the country for 10,000 years, why do I need to set up a prince?" ”

Those who come are not good, those who are good do not come, this sentence is full of meaning, why can't Zhao Huan hear it? He was dumbfounded for a moment, and he didn't dare to say a word.

Zhao Ji's tone suddenly softened, and said, "Has the prince been studying lately?" ”

Zhao Huan replied cautiously: "Following my father's orders, my sons and daughters don't dare to slack off at all. ”

Zhao Ji said: "What are you looking at?" ”

Zhao Huan said: "The Book of Songs." ”

Zhao Ji frowned and said, "Is it Qin Shaoyou's annotation?" ”

Zhao Huan breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and gently raised his eyes to glance at Zhao Ji in the palace, but this glance was really a little blurry, and he still couldn't figure out Zhao Ji's mind, he nodded with his chin: "Xuandelang's annotation is simply shocking, and Erchen is reading this edition." ”

Zhao Ji said: "Then I will test you for the school." ”

Zhao Huan's nerves tensed again, how could he take the school examination when the court was about to discuss it? Since he became an adult, his father has never been admitted to school, so he said stubbornly: "Please teach my father." ”

Zhao Ji said lightly: "In the Book of Poetry, what do you say about the footwork of fathers and sons?" ”

Zhao Huan said: "Poetry" cloud: "Brother should be brother." "It is better to be a brother and a brother, and then you can teach the countrymen. "Poetry" cloud: "Its etiquette is not bad, it is the four countries." "It is the foot law of father and son, and then the civil law. This is said to govern the country in Qi Qi's family. ”

Zhao Ji looked at him and said coldly, "You continue." ”

Zhao Huan had no choice but to disassemble Qin Shaoyou's annotations sentence by sentence, and finally said: "Fathers, sons, and brothers have their own duties and abide by their own ways, then these behaviors will become "foot law", that is, standard laws, and then the people can learn, imitate, and abide by them." That's how it is. Only by cultivating one's own virtues, serving one's father, and treating one's brothers well can one teach the people and govern the country with etiquette and law. ”

Zhao Ji snorted, not knowing if he was satisfied with such an answer, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "Is this what the prince did?" But you are careful to serve your father? Be kind to your brother? Self-cultivation and morality, what does Donggong think? ”

Zhao Ji's words were heart-wrenching, Zhao Huan was drenched in cold sweat, and he was already a little panicked, and he said: "Father...... Father's ...... The sons did their best to do so, and if the father was dissatisfied, the sons would correct it......"

Zhao Ji said lightly: "I didn't say that you were wrong, what are you doing when you lose your soul?" Flatten, be your prince. ”

Zhao Huan stood up, his face was pale, and he thought to himself, could it be that my father warned me not to make trouble today? But...... Beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from Zhao Huan's forehead, and it was too late to stop it, it was easy to incite, but to stop it, how could it be so easy?

While Zhao Huan was thinking nonsense, the civil and military officials led by Shen Ao entered the martial arts hall and saluted Zhao Ji together: "Long live my emperor." Then he stood in shifts, his eyes fell on the Golden Palace, waiting for Zhao Ji to speak.

Zhao Ji glanced at the hall, stroked the imperial case with his hand, and said slowly: "I just talked about the Book of Poetry with the prince, and the books handed down by the sages may not be able to understand the white head of the poor scriptures of the world. But now, the hearts of men have been broken, and what is the reason why the courtiers deceive their own monarchs, the sons covet their fathers, and the brothers kill each other? ”

Zhao Huan's face changed suddenly, and he wanted to kneel, but he found that he was quite suspicious of not admitting himself, but his legs were a little sore, and his brain was buzzing for a while.

Li Bangyan's eyes looked at Zhao Huan faintly, and he couldn't help but feel a sudden suddenness in his heart, how could His Majesty suddenly say this, was it unintentional or did it have other intentions? He couldn't guess!

Seeing that no one in the hall answered, Zhao Ji smiled and said, "The world is broken, what is the reason for this?" Didn't the princes of Gon learn the words of the saints, and read the books of the saints? For example, Nawen Xianzhi, his knowledge is excellent, but why would he do so many stupid things? Could it be that the words and teachings of the saints are only perfunctory in the eyes of some people? ”

Zhao Ji finished speaking, closed his eyes, leaned on the dragon collapse and continued: "I just feel it, you don't have to keep it in mind, what is the court discussing today?" Li Aiqing, you can start up. ”

Li Bangyan stood up stubbornly and said leisurely: "Your Majesty, since the clarification of the maritime politics, there are many businessmen who go to the sea like carp crossing the river, but the governments of various roads have also sent complaints to complain, saying that since Suzhou, Hangzhou and Quanzhou have opened up a new situation, a large number of people do not want to cultivate, and many people have abandoned their fields to go to Quanzhou and Suzhou and Hangzhou to do business, so that many fields are barren. He paused and continued: "For example, in the second year of Yonghe, the grain levied by Qiantang County on Jiangnan Road was 90,000 stones, but in the third year of Yonghe, there were only 70,000 stones left. ”

When Zhao Ji heard the word Quanzhou, he couldn't help but look at Shen Ao worriedly, and said, "Shen Aiqing, you are in charge of this sea administration, what do you say?" ”

Shen Ao stood up and said: "Your Majesty, what Lord Li said is not wrong, not only a Qiantang, but also the entire Jiangnan Road, and a large number of tenants abandoned the land, so that the tenant rent in the countryside had to fall sharply, in the second year of Yonghe, the tenants rented ten acres of land to pay forty stone of grain, and in the third year of Yonghe, it was sharply reduced to twenty stones, and many squires who owned a large number of fields had their income plummeted, and many people sold their land to do business. If this continues, I am afraid that several places in Suzhou, Hangzhou and Fujian will no longer be willing to cultivate grain, and this text version is provided by Tieba. ”

Shen Ao said lightly: "But then again, although the grain production has decreased, and many people have taken the fertile land to plant mulberry silk, but my Great Song caravan has also brought a lot of grain from overseas, for example, last year, the caravan brought back 9.4 million stones, enough to make up for this shortfall." In addition, the merchants have brought a lot of grain varieties of rice from overseas, and Wechen has ordered the Haizheng Yamen to try to plant them, and although the grain output on the Suzhou-Hangzhou and Fujian roads has dropped sharply, the grain output of all roads in the world can increase a little more, and it is enough to solve the grain problem. ”

Li Bangyan sneered: "King Pingxi is only afraid that he will say too much, is it possible that the grain in the foreign land is so rare?" Can production be increased? ”

Shen Ao said solemnly: "It is Li Men's own loneliness and ignorance, in fact, as early as when the first emperor Zhenzong was in, my Great Song Dynasty introduced Zhancheng rice, this kind of rice is better than the rice of my Great Song Dynasty, the ears are long and no mangs, the grain difference is small, and it is born without choosing the land, the same acre of land, if you can only harvest ten stones with the rice seeds of my Great Song Dynasty, but the cultivation is Zhancheng rice, at least twelve stones can be harvested." Li Menxia does not divide the five grains, how can he know the relationship between rice seeds and grain production. ”
