(This chapter is a supplement to the article on September 28!) Six chapters away! ）

The spring of the thirty-second year of the summer calendar arrived more than ten days earlier than in previous years.

It was only late March, and the snow around Zhenhai had melted, and the whole Zhenhai was warmed up by a month of sunny weather, and many people could no longer wear winter clothes, and even the officials of the Government Council began to work early on the agricultural affairs of the New Year.

The plan of the year lies in the spring, Wang Ze, as the head of a country, should have a lot of things, but he is used to being lazy, and he either shirks most of the ordinary affairs to the Government Council and the Privy Council, or handles them in advance.

After marrying Pei Xiu in the twenty-first year of the Xia calendar, Wang Ze's harem beauties have always maintained the scale of only three people, if he had been arrested as bigamy in later generations, or Wang Ze could only choose to emigrate abroad, otherwise the government would not deal with him, and the girls who were deeply influenced by feminism would also scold him to death.

But now it is the Sui Dynasty.

In the eyes of more than 20 million subjects of the Xia Kingdom, his great King His Majesty established such a powerful country by fighting in the east and west, but did not flood the harem with a lavish beauty pageant, and even only had three wives.

Although at this time, Emperor Wen of Sui of the Sui Empire, Yang Jian, also had only one Queen Dugu, and there were no other concubines, but in the eyes of the subjects of the Xia State, it was because Queen Dugu was too strong, but their own king was voluntary, and they felt that their king's concubines were still too few.

But Wang Ze didn't want to find any more beauties at all, now his palace is chaotic enough, if he really gets some beauties three thousand, God knows what kind of chaos will be in the palace, Wang Ze is not a guy with a head full of sperm, he just thinks about it, and he is the kind of person who pulls birds ruthlessly.

Therefore, no matter how some officials and people advised, Wang Ze refused all of them, and even finally issued an edict prohibiting such advice, which made the subjects of Xia State die of this high-ranking heart, and at the same time, it also made Cheng Xueyan, Zhu Qingqing, and Pei Xiu even more in love.

In addition to the three princesses, Wang Ze also has a large group of children, except for Cheng Xueyan and Zhu Qingqing, who each gave birth to a daughter, and then the two daughters plus Pei Xiu each gave birth to two sons, which are six sons and two daughters.

Except for the eldest prince Wang Dong and the second prince Wang Rui, who have just turned thirteen this year, the other four princes are all under the age of ten, among which the youngest sixth prince Wang Ke born to Pei Xiu is just six years old, but Wang Ze's two eldest daughters will be seventeen years old this year, but they have reached the age where they can talk about marriage.

When it comes to his two daughters, Wang Ze has a big head.

The eldest daughter Wang Feng and the second daughter Wang Xuan have been pretending to be ordinary children studying in an ordinary school in Zhenhai since they were young, and they have not been contaminated with too many princess diseases over the years, especially the eldest daughter fits Cheng Xueyan's gentle and skillful character, but the second daughter doesn't know how to become a female overlord.

Wang Xuan has been more lively since she was a child, and secretly learned good martial arts from Sanniang Pei Xiu, this second daughter is very well-behaved in front of Wang Ze, but as soon as she leaves the palace, she immediately becomes the eldest sister of all the ministers' girls, and acts chivalrous and righteous everywhere in Zhenhai City.

In recent years, there have been various scripts circulating everywhere in the summer country, especially the heroic legends such as the Legend of the Condor Heroes and the White Horse Howling West Wind have attracted Wang Xuan's attention.

She especially admires and admires the chivalrous men who are in charge of the people, and often causes a lot of trouble with a group of little sisters, but because she did not break the law, and because she is Wang Ze's daughter who loves her very much, even the Zhenhai county guard is very helpless with her, and she is simply a lawless character.

Thinking of this, Wang Ze couldn't wait to give himself a few big mouths, he knew that why write those martial arts out like this, but now God let his second daughter find trouble for himself, this is simply asking for trouble for himself, isn't it?

Originally, he finally took out a day today, Wang Ze thought about taking the family, as well as his father Wang Yong and mother Xi Wenqi to play and barbecue in the garden outside the city, after all, the time for the family to gather together is not very much.

Who knew that the second daughter Wang Xuan disliked her father's playing style was too old-fashioned, and she was very disdainful to take a group of little sisters to play polo with others.

This unintentional leak almost scared Wang Ze and Wang Yong to death, polo is a very dangerous sport, its danger far exceeds that of American football and baseball in later generations, it is normal to break arms and short legs after a polo game, and even deaths are not unexpected.

Facing the reproaches of Wang Yong, Wang Ze and his mother Zhu Qingqing, Wang Xuan, who originally wanted to slip away, was speechless and asked Sanniang Pei Xiu for help, but Pei Xiu just shrugged helplessly and said that he was helpless. Dotted Library

Fortunately, at this time, Zhu Bofu's son Zhu Ming walked in and relieved Wang Xuan.

The young man was the same age as Wang Xuan and was also seventeen years old, and after he rushed in, he said excitedly to Wang Yong and Wang Ze: "Grandfather, Your Majesty, just now Lord Cao sent a message saying that the steam locomotive developed by the Sword Casting City will be put into trial operation today, and Your Majesty is invited to watch the ceremony!" ”

Before Zhu Ming's words fell, Wang Xuan was excited to see the excitement, and the other family members of Wang Yong, Gongxi and Wang Ze were also very curious, after all, the name steam locomotive had been in their ears for more than a year, and everyone was very curious about how steam made the car move.

Wang Yong smiled and looked at Zhu Ming and Wang Xuan there, they don't play polo less on weekdays, even a person like Wang Ze can see the faint relationship between the two young men and women, it seems that their cousins can develop a little.

Wang Ze did not issue a law prohibiting cousins from marrying, it seems that he went back and asked Wang Xuan and Zhu Ming how it was going, if the two really had a good feeling, it was not impossible to get together.

Zhu Ming is the eldest son of Zhu Bofu, after Zhu Bofu and Cheng Hu and a group of successors to the Hou State returned to China last year, they all left their sons in Zhenhai to continue to join the army, among which Cheng Hu's son Cheng Biao is still with Zhu Ming as a cavalry captain in Yulinwei.

Wang Yong and Wang Ze treat these two people as if they were their own grandsons and sons, and even sometimes family banquets will arrange for the two to participate together, which is also a treatment that many people can't envy, after all, the relationship between the three families has been for decades and three generations.

When he arrived outside the palace, Cheng Biao had already prepared more than a dozen luxurious versions of the Wang family's special carriages, and the 1,000 Su guards on duty had already set up their cars to escort the surroundings, and hundreds of war horses were forcibly pressing the joy in their hearts, just waiting for Wang Ze's family to arrive.

Wang Ze talked to Zhu Ming and Cheng Biao, and at the same time took the family to the northwest outside Zhenhai City, although there were many people and many vehicles, but there were Su Guards in front of the road, and it only took half an hour to reach their destination.

More than ten miles out of the city, Wang Ze saw a sea of people in the distance on the carriage, and there were many people who came to see the excitement, and even saw that many people came to watch on horseback, which made Wang Ze itch in his heart At the same time, he also admired the curiosity of these people.

"Your Majesty is here!"

"Why are Mr. Liu, Mr. Yang, and Mr. Xiao here?" As soon as Wang Ze got off the carriage, he saw Liu Xin and his party coming up, and he smiled, "Didn't you go to arrange spring ploughing?" Why did you come here to see the test run of the motor vehicle? ”

Liu Xin first saluted Wang Yong, Wang Ze and others, and then smiled slowly: "We only need to arrange the following people to deal with the matter of spring ploughing, everyone has had sufficient experience in urging spring ploughing over the years, and we old men will not make trouble for young people!" ”

Saying that, Liu Xin smiled again: "Originally, we were idle in the Government Council today, and I just heard that the steam locomotive developed by Mr. Cao is going to be put into trial operation, and I have always listened to His Majesty's words in the past, the locomotive driven by the steam engine is the general trend of future development, although we are old, but we also want to see what this steam locomotive is like!" ”

Yang Ku also stroked his white beard and said with a smile: "In the past, when we were in the East China Sea, the machinery of the major factories was driven by water or animal power, but the animal power was very unstable because of the physical strength of the livestock, and the water power was even more restrictive!"

After we established the country in this bitter cold place, the use of water power has become a big trouble, and more than half a year of water power is not used, fortunately, the gentlemen of the mechanical college later improved the steam engine to the factory machinery, but I have never seen this steam-driven car! ”

Wang Ze took a look, except for Lu Wen, who did not come at home to recuperate because he was getting older, everyone else who could come came, except for Xiao Jing, Feng Jing, Yan Nantian and others behind the two, more than 60 civil officials above the fifth grade in the Government Council came.

Seeing this, Wang Ze laughed and said: "Since everyone thinks it is fresh, then let's listen to Mr. Cao and explain it to us later, and we will all witness how our Xia Kingdom has entered a new era!" ”

Saying that, Wang Ze took the lead and walked not far away, where a tall locomotive was emitting billowing white smoke, and thirty steps away from the locomotive, tens of thousands of people in Xia Kingdom looked at this huge machine in surprise and fear, looking at the power of this machine.

Although I don't know how many kinds of trains I have seen in later generations, Wang Ze is still very excited when he sees the rough motor vehicle in front of him, and at this moment Wang Ze seems to have returned to the later life, no matter what he did before, but only trains are a powerful tool to completely change a country.

As long as there is a train, he can build the railway all the way to the distant North Sea, or even further west, and wherever the train goes, it will inevitably become his territory, and there will never be a phenomenon that the land is too far away and has to be abandoned.
