With the arrival of the first snow in the winter of the seventh year of Zhenghe, Cai Jing was pulled off the horse, and his eldest son was also cut from his official position to be elected.

This snow fell so hard that it only took one night to accumulate a lot of depth.

The weather is cold and freezing, and Emperor Mingde does not entertain guests in the morning, because the carriages and horses on Hongen Avenue have not yet formed a congestion.

In the vast mess, from the end of the avenue, a pair of ragged mothers and daughters walked towards each other.

The mother and daughter are very similar, with plump lips and thin eyebrows, a high nose bridge, a round face and big eyes, and a beautiful character.

It's just that there is a bitter color between the eyebrows, a sad face with sadness, blue and white due to the cold, and an indescribable sadness and gloom.

"Mother, Daddy has fallen to this point, it can be said that she is the one who harmed her, you still have to come to beg her!" When the daughter saw the towering door of the Ninghe Temple, she stood up and said in a choked voice:

"How can she be so easy to get into? Haven't you heard the slang that is popular among outsiders? ”

"Mingde Enchantress, Ninghe Palace, gold is made of porch and silver is made of Kan, the people are fat and ointment are spread all over the courtyard, there is no virtue and no talent in the palace, gold and silver make the green clouds go straight up, everything is done."

"Qing'er!" The woman seemed to be frozen hard, and her voice was trembling: "It's your mouth that hurt your father, why don't you know how to introspect?" What a realm this is, you dare to talk nonsense! ”

"Mother, I'm afraid of what she will do, you and I have no money, and it's hard to even enter the door, how can you get in if you say something?" Qing'er didn't eat the woman's set, and said disdainfully: "If it weren't for you and Daddy restricting me from entering the palace, right now, I can't say it, I also made Mrs., Daddy's brother has an accident, I can still find a way to save one or two!" ”

"You, you girl who doesn't know the height of the sky!" The woman was extremely annoyed, stretched out her finger and pointed it on Qing'er's forehead: "Your father and brother are both honest and kind, and they do their duty, how come they come to you, and they only stay mean and have a heart higher than the sky!" ”

"Your eyes as an official are so easy to enter? There are a hundred and ten ladies in the palace, and if you enter it, it is not a stone sinking into the sea silently! ”

"Mother! I'm different from those of them, I'm not only good-looking, I'm talented! Qing'er didn't follow: "My aunt said that at that time, the eldest son of the Cai Xiang family begged to accept you, but you didn't know how to make progress, and chose Daddy, an honest man who only knows farming, once something happened, he was immediately pushed out to be a scapegoat!" ”

"You, you !!" The woman didn't know whether it was cold or angry, her face was blue and shaky: "You also know that it is Naah!" It's a thing, how can you have the dignity of being a wife! If you don't accept this thought, don't enter the Condensation and Temple with me! ”

After saying that, he shook off Qing'er with one hand and strode in the direction of the Ninghe Palace, but he didn't take two steps before falling heavily into the snow.

Qing'er rolled her eyes behind her back, followed quickly, and helped the woman to walk forward against the wind and snow.

In the hall of condensation, the heating was smoky, and Zhao Fujin was wearing a thick fur cloak all over his body, and a hand stretched out from the cloak, looking through the articles on the table.

This article was submitted by a farmer surnamed Li in Xing'an County.

Its content is that after three years of experience in serving farmers, it is concluded that at the end of the year, when the seedlings are not out of the hard pole, they are milled with stone plates, which can ensure that the ground is heated in the middle of winter, and the cold seedlings are not damaged, so as to ensure that the next year's grain is abundant.

It's just that after he submitted this article, he was put in prison by the county order of Xing'an County.

The crime is to crush the seedlings with stone pans without permission, causing a reduction in grain production, which is a heinous crime.

Zhao Fujin had seen agricultural knowledge in his previous life, and there was such a strategy for keeping winter wheat warm, saying that the winter wheat that has been rolled is conducive to safe wintering, reducing soil cracking, enhancing wheat roots, retaining water, improving moisture, increasing fertilizer, preventing excessive fertilizer from passing, promoting root growth, and improving the ability to resist cold and frost.

Moreover, according to this Li Shi Nong, this method has been experimented for three or four years, and there is a mature conclusion, so it has reached the heavens, in order to implement the whole Song Dynasty to ensure production.

It stands to reason that I've tried it before, so why was it put in jail after I submitted it?

Zhao Fujin sent someone to Xing'an County to inquire, and only returned yesterday, saying that this Li Shi Nong was Ma Zheng's brother-in-law, and Ma Zheng's death was splattered with blood, and those who had official status in the clan were dismissed.

Li Shinong's wife is Mrs. Ma's cousin, separated by one floor, and was originally not implicated, but he couldn't stand from having a personal feud with the county magistrate in Xing'an County.

In order to catch his crimes, the county commander harmed the whole clan by means of Ma Zheng's crimes, so he combined his two crimes into one crime and put him in prison.

Zhao Fujin let out a long sigh, the more he watched, the colder his heart became.

There were many officials in the Great Song Dynasty, and most of them were power-grabbers.

A pragmatic and talented person like Li Shinong often has a hard time getting ahead, either going to the official to grab merit, or being calculated by the villain to never get ahead.

"Fifth Emperor, you are rich and powerful, how can you be embarrassed to sigh?" In the silent hall, a woman's exclamation suddenly sounded.

Zhao Fujin looked back and saw Princess Ande Zhao Jinluo wearing a cloak and yawning from behind the screen.

"You've been living with me for more than ten days, when are you leaving?" Zhao Fujin glanced at her and asked angrily.

"Confucius said that it is very happy to have guests from afar. Fifth sister, it's okay for you to get power, but you owe it to you! Zhao Jinluo fastened his cloak, unceremoniously squeezed to Zhao Fujin's side, and stretched out his head to read the article on her case.

"The fourth sister is embarrassed to say that she is a guest, which guest have you ever seen come uninvited, and a stay is more than ten days?" Zhao Fujin glanced at her, and moved his body to the side, so that she could sit upright and read the article on the case: "Just let the people in your palace send your expenses to me, even if you stay for a few more days, I won't drive you!" ”

"Go, go!" Zhao Jinluo glanced at the book related to agriculture, and immediately lost interest, she leaned down on the table, and said with a wistful expression: "You have got so much money, just my living expenses are not enough for the leakage of your fingers!" ”

"Why is this virtue again, what is wrong?" Zhao Fujin asked a little strangely: "Before I moved out, I heard that the eldest lady was discussing marriage with you, how could you still be idle and wander around?" ”

"A lover is like this, but there is a mother's ......" Zhao Jinluo's muffled voice seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth.

"What you said, if you don't have a mother, where will you come from!" Zhao Fujin was stunned: "What's the matter, that Song Juren's mother is not easy to deal with?" ”

"It's not just hard to deal with!" As soon as Zhao Jinluo said this, he became angry: "She sent a post to my mother, saying that the city is too far away from the ancestral land, and I hope that after I marry her son, I can move to the ancestral land with her and serve the ancestors!" ”

"What!" Zhao Fujin was speechless: "The eldest lady will definitely not agree, right?" ”

"You guessed it wrong! My mother said that the daughter of the official family is also the daughter-in-law of other people, and it is a proper etiquette to obey Aunt Weng! Zhao Jinluo gritted his teeth and said.
