No, no.

Zhao Ding quickly denied this idea in his heart.

The reason is simple.

Since ancient times, the civil and military forces have not been separated, and this is a situation that Taizu has deliberately maintained since the founding of the country.

Later emperors basically continued this idea.

After all, once the civil and military systems come together, there will be nothing to do with the emperor.

And his son Zhao Chongyuan made it clear this time that he wanted to use his hand to give some deterrence to the families who had occupied the civil and official system for a hundred years, so that they could be honest.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible for a family of military generals who can stand tall for a hundred years in the vein of Wei Guogong not to see this.

And at this time, Xu Ruoyun's biggest possibility is to keep these two people and hand them over when necessary, so that he Zhao Ding will give a heavy blow to the civil official system headed by the Zhou family and the Ye family!

So it is very likely that this matter is not what he Zhao Ding thought at the beginning, but in his favor.

At the same time, with the means of his son Zhao Chongyuan, he must also know this.

It can be said that everything is in the calculation of his son Zhao Chongyuan.

This feeling of being calculated is really disgusting.

Although Zhao Chongyuan's move may be helping him Zhao Ding, Zhao Ding doesn't like this feeling either.

But now that this matter is beneficial to him, he is too lazy to care.

But once there is no benefit, then you see me picking on you!

"Gone."

Zhao Ding commanded Zhang San behind him.

"Lord Wang, where are we going?"

Zhang San looked at Zhao Ding with a confused expression.

There were a total of three stickmen and two of them, and one family member was taken away by Xu Ruoyun.

Their clues are really gone.

"Go find Xu Ruoyun and ask for someone."

Zhao Ding said noncommittally.

"Looking for Miss Xu to ask for someone?"

Zhang San was stunned when he heard this.

During this time, following Zhao Ding's side, he had heard a lot of rumors about that Miss Xu, who was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and could bend bows and arrows on horses, and dominate all armies.

If you put it on a man, it is a perfect person who can be civil and martial, and if you put it on a woman, it will be a little difficult to control.

And now that the prince of his own family is going to ask for someone like this, I hope he won't touch his nose!

"Let's go."

Seeing that Zhang San was a little hesitant, Zhao Ding pulled Zhang San by hand.

He took out two taels of silver from his sleeve and gave it to the old man with his grandson.

The reason why he didn't give more was not that Zhao Ding was reluctant, but that he was not guilty.

This North Gate Street is the place where the three sects and the nine streams of Yingtian converge.

A lonely old man with a child, and suddenly an extra ten taels of silver on his body, may not be a necessity to improve his life, but a real life-saving money.

And these two taels of silver are enough for their grandparents to live a good life for a while.

And that's enough for them.

……

"Miss, I heard that Lord Yan went to Qinghefang?"

Yingtian City, on the Qingshan Wharf, in the two-story building not far from the wharf.

Caiyun listened to the report of the outsider, turned his head and looked at Xu Ruoyun with some embarrassment.

"Go."

Xu Ruoyun replied calmly, his eyes still looking downstairs.

"Miss, aren't you at all?"

Caiyun wanted to speak and stopped.

"What's wrong with me?"

Xu Ruoyun turned his head and looked at Caiyun in great surprise.

"I mean..."

But before Caiyun finished speaking, Xu Ruoyun waved his hand: "Caiyun, you have to understand that in these years, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, especially if he is still a prince, not to mention what the situation is now, that is, he can only be a prince in the future, according to the law of Daqian, a prince must also have a main concubine and two side concubines."

As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't matter, as long as he, Zhao Ding, doesn't fall into that gentle township, and does what he wants to do at the moment.

As for anything else, it doesn't matter. ”

Xu Ruoyun said in a calm voice.

"Miss, your heart is really big."

Caiyun couldn't help but complain.

"It's not big, so what? Is it really like those jokes, leaving home? Elope? It's just a drama,

I am a member of the Xu family, and since I was born, I have been destined to shoulder things that ordinary women have not shouldered, and similarly, as a royal person, he has also shouldered responsibilities that ordinary men have not shouldered since he was born.

Since this is the case, it is natural that you can't criticize him harshly with the requirements of ordinary couples. ”

"Miss, I see."

Listening to Xu Ruoyun's words, Caiyun opened his mouth when he heard this, but he didn't speak after all.

Immediately, he changed the subject and asked, "Miss, then when are we going to do it?" ”

The so-called hands-on refers to the natural targeting of the Tian firm.

Especially right now, Zhao Qingzhan is still inside.

"There's no hurry."

Xu Ruoyun shook his head, "According to the news, there should be another official ship that will enter Qingshan Wharf today, and when that official ship arrives, it's not too late for us to make a move." ”

Speaking of this, a trace of coldness appeared in the cold light of Xu Ruoyun's eyes.

"Yes, miss."

Caiyun replied.

……

At the same time, on the Castle Peak Pier.

"Hurry, hurry!"

Rapid urgings continued to sound on the shore of Qingshan Wharf.

One by one, the coolies, who were as thin as hemp poles, carried heavy sacks, slowly walked out of the cabin, stepped on the planks between the ferry port and the hull, and carried these sacks containing unknown things to the dock.

Zhao Qingzhan was also standing inside.

The delicate little face has long been covered by dust, and the original appearance cannot be seen at all.

Bang!

A crisp whip sounded.

A horsewhip was directly whipped on the stickman in front of Zhao Qingzhan who was about forty years old.

With the whipping of this whip sounded.

A clear blood mark suddenly appeared on the back of the stickman, who was extremely thin due to severe malnutrition.

Thin lines of sweat instantly soaked his forehead.

But even so, he still struggled to squeeze out a smile, flattered the previous steward who was wielding a horsewhip, and then gritted his teeth, and continued to tremble and step on the swaying planks with the sack on his back, and walked towards the dock.

A rush of rapids came in.

The hull of the ship shook violently, and even the planks that connected to the ferry shook.

For a moment, all the stickmen who stepped on the wooden planks shook involuntarily.

The stickman who had been whipped before fell down unexpectedly, and the sack on his back instantly rolled into the water.

"Grass and mud horses, eat a lot every day, you can't do anything well, Lao Tzu beat you to death, bastard!"

Seeing the sack tumble into the river, the steward who had beaten the stickman before suddenly scolded angrily.

The whip in his hand slashed at the stickman and swept away at him.

Zhao Qingzhan just wanted to stop it, but was stopped by a middle-aged man-like man behind him, his eyes glanced at the steward who was beating the stickman with a vigilant look, and then whispered to Zhao Qingzhan and said, "You didn't understand it just now, don't come out of this matter." ”

After speaking, in front of Zhao Qingzhan, he struggled to carry the sack, stepped on the wooden plank that was still shaking, and walked towards the dock.

Behind him, there were quite a few stickmen, but most of them looked numb.

Looking at this scene, Zhao Qingzhan clenched his hands deeply.

Is this the real suffering of the people?
