After Zhao Zhen Bingming came, he asked, "When I came, I found that the imperial sister was in a daze, and she had something on her mind?" ”

Zhao Yingluo subconsciously replied, "I'm wondering if the nursery and Liu Zhengyan should be saved." ”

Originally, Zhao Yingluo planned to take this opportunity to defeat Zhao Gou's three-way army in one fell swoop, force Zhao Gou to abdicate, and the worst thing that could make him break off peace with the Jin people, but Miao and Liu intervened sideways, which pushed her plan back.

"Save!"

Zhao Yingluo asked with some curiosity, "Why?" ”

"Now Miao and Liu have to give advice, although they have to be presented for a while, how can the official family be so easy to deal with? Just find an excuse to put Sowers and Liu Zhengyan to death. As soon as Miao and Liu died, the soldiers who supported them naturally fell apart. ”

Zhao Yingluo was slightly stunned, "You know a lot." ”

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly and continued, "Kang Lu died unexpectedly, there are still many eunuchs in the court, the government is chaotic, the finances are empty, and the national strength is declining. And the reason why the Jin people didn't dare to go south was because they were afraid of the imperial sister. Once Miao and Liu are executed, it is difficult to guarantee that the official family will not turn their faces again. ”

Zhao Yingluo nodded slightly, "You're right, although these two people are a little reckless, they are still the main battle faction in the end, and I will send a letter to remind the two of them when I am young." ”

Zhao Zhen glanced up at the clear blue sky, "I hope they can protect themselves temporarily, otherwise, wouldn't the civil strife in the Great Song Dynasty give a chance to foreign enemies." ”

Zhao Yingluo smiled confidently, "No matter what, no matter what happens over there in Lin'an, as long as Kaifeng is stable, the Jin people dare not go south, and the Great Song Dynasty will be stable, don't care about these things for now, go!" Take you to see my new crop! ”

Zhao Yingluo walked in front, Zhao Zhen followed behind, and the two soon came to a vacant lot in the mansion, which was the experimental field set aside by Zhao Yingluo, and the experimental field at this time was already full of vegetables and fruits and other crops.

She took Zhao Zhen straight to a newly sprouted crop, and the young shoots had just grown two emerald green leaves, which were really small.

"Do you know what kind of crop this is?"

Zhao Zhen shook his head, "The inner garden of the palace also has my father's farm, but I have never seen this kind of crop, what is it?" ”

"It's called cotton! The origin is the Western Regions, but after my improvement, I can adapt to the soil and sunshine here. ”

Zhao Zhen stared at the newly sprouted cotton for a long time, and finally turned his head and asked, "Cotton...... Cotton...... Is this flower for ornamentation? ”

"Naturally not! When it reaches autumn, the flowers turn into small cotton balls, and when the sun shines, the cotton balls burst open to reveal the white cotton wool inside, which is light and warm, and can be made into clothes, shoes and socks......

Zhao Yingluo explained to him while pulling out the grass that had just sprouted.

"Let me ask you, why did the two countries choose to go to war in the summer and autumn?"

Zhao Zhen replied after a little thought, "Summer and autumn are rich in grain and grass, and the war horses are fat!" It is best for waging war, as for winter and spring...... It's too cold in winter, but the Jin people are okay, and they have fur covering their bodies, but the clothes of my Great Song soldiers are extremely cold-resistant, and their combat strength will be greatly affected. Why did the royal sister ask this question? ”

Zhao Yingluo said secretively, "If next year, my Great Song soldiers can wear thick warm suits and launch a surprise battle in winter to recapture Hebei Prefecture, how about it?" ”

Zhao Zhen scratched his skull with his hand, and replied with some doubts, "It's a clever plan!" But the warm suit...... Sister Huang is talking about using it as a battle suit? ”

"You'll know in the fall, I not only planted some here, but also planted 300,000 acres in the west of the city! With these 300,000 acres of cotton fields, it should be enough to arm a cavalry of more than 10,000 people. ”

The more Zhao Zhen listened, the more confused she became, "Such a small sprout can grow clothes?" ”

Zhao Yingluo smiled proudly, "You'll know when it's autumn!" If the yield is guaranteed, the people of the Great Song Dynasty will not only have food to eat, but also use cotton to protect themselves from the cold in the cold winter. ”

As she said this, she glanced up at a few buildings not far away.

"Do you see that piece of house?"

Zhao Zhen glanced at it from a distance and replied, "I see, but this house seems to be a little taller than the surrounding ones, and the length is also very long." ”

"That's the weaving workshop of the future, and when the cotton is harvested in the fall, we can make clothes on a large scale."

When Zhao Zhen heard this, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "Sister Huang, isn't there already this weaving workshop?" ”

Zhao Yingluo shook her head, "That's different, what I want to do is cotton weaving, and I want large-scale production, which is a modern production management method." ”

"Modern production management?" Zhao Zhen was even more puzzled.

"All in all, the textiles produced are not only of better quality, but also more efficient. ”

After listening to this, Zhao Zhen nodded thoughtfully, "I seem to understand something......"

After taking him to see the entire experimental field, Zhao Yingluo patted the mud in his hand, "Say, how much field do you want to rent?" ”

Unexpectedly, Zhao Zhen shook his head again and again, "I thought it was easier to grow crops than to study and fight, who knew that there were so many skills, this field is still rented by the imperial sister to others." I'm just going to work with the royal sister and have an in-depth understanding of farming. ”

Thinking that just planting this cotton would involve a series of things such as breaking forks, pinching the top, catching insects, watering, and fertilizing, Zhao Zhen retreated, and this kind of field really had to be handed over to someone who was good at planting.

Zhao Yingluo didn't say much, after all, at his age and from a royal family, how could he understand the hardships of farmers, as long as he had this heart, it was not bad.

After talking to Zhao Zhen about some agricultural problems, it was already noon, and she ordered someone to prepare a fairly good lunch for Zhao Zhen before sending him away.

A day later, a fast horse galloped out of Kaifeng City and headed in the direction of Lin'an.

【Yanjing】

The defeat of the Jin State shocked the government and the opposition, Wanyan Zonghan, as the commander of the three armies, was captured by the enemy, and was inevitably severely reprimanded by Jin Taizong Wanyan Sheng, but his official rank was not cut.

Wan Yan Sheng glanced at Wan Yan Zonghan, who was dejected, and said with some displeasure, "I said earlier that the Song Jin Chang can bring a steady stream of gold and silver treasures to the Dajin Kingdom, but once the war starts, then there are still Song people who come to do trade?" Not to mention the defeat, I had to agree to the conditions of the Song people and release all the Great Song clans. ”

Wanyan Zonghan said a little unconvinced, "That Shen Wanshu is used to making that kind of strange weapon, once our dynasty can imitate it, it will be easy to defeat the Song people." ”

Wan Yansheng asked with some curiosity, "Strange weapons?" ”

Wanyan Zonghan then beckoned and ordered someone to bring a firearm into the main hall, "This thing is that strange weapon, which can kill people invisibly!" If I hadn't been concerned about this, how could I have been captured alive by them. ”
