Today's court meeting, after rewarding the Yun family and Zhou family for their military exploits and confirming the six major commanders of the New Army, other branches and leaves became a foil. Yun Zheng didn't pay much attention to it, but at the end
When he was about to leave the court, the emperor announced that the ceremony for the Thirteen Princesses would be held on the 25th of the first lunar month, which attracted Yun Zheng's attention.
Yunzheng, who traveled through time in his previous life, didn't know much about ancient solar terms and customs, but the memory he inherited told him what the 25th day of the first lunar month was.
This day is the Grain Filling Festival. The origin of the Grain Filling Festival is as follows: According to legend, there was a severe drought in the north for three consecutive years.
At the end of the year, the poor had no way out, and countless people died of cold and hunger. At this time, the palace guarding the food for the royal family was guarding a large hoard of food. Seeing his fathers and brothers starving to death, he couldn't bear it, so he decided to do it himself.
He advocated opening the imperial warehouse to relieve the victims, and let people rush to transport all the royal food, and saved one of the victims. But in this way, it would be difficult for him to deliver to the royal family, so he set fire to the warehouse on the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month.
Together with himself, he was burned to death. In order to commemorate this unknown granary, descendants would use fine charcoal ash or firewood ash to fill the granary inside and outside the courtyard every day to show their memory of the granary.
The legend may not be credible, but at least it can let people know what this festival represents
For the common people, use plant ash to draw the appearance of a grain hoard, put grains or money in it, and then draw a small ladder. Steamed white-faced hedgehogs and mice on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month are placed outside the hoard in the hope of a good harvest.
Rats bring food or money into the store... This is obviously a festival to hope for a good harvest.
But Yun Zheng now dares not to think carefully about every decision of His Majesty the Emperor. Even if this consideration is not important, he really feels that something is wrong.
According to this legend, it was the emperor's grain officer who opened the warehouse privately, and the people who benefited were the people, while the emperor suffered losses. This day did not seem to be a good day for the royal family, so why did Emperor Wanchang send his daughter to the palace?
Is this the day when the Gili Day is scheduled?
Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, yes, the emperor is probably warning Yan'er not to be that grain official this time! The emperor's method to deal with the border town now is political flattery, economic encirclement and suppression, political flattery has nothing to do with Yan'er
It was not considered large, but the economic encirclement and suppression was related to her. Yinfengzhai's annual income was so huge, and most of its income was filled into the inner treasury, and the silver in the inner treasury was one of the sharp edges of the "currency war" in the hands of the emperor against Bian Zhen.
And now that Yan'er has roped in Yun Zheng and plans to use the royal family's channel that has opened doors in Nanyang to export iron products for the Yun family, it is obviously contrary to the emperor's existing policy. The emperor wants to suppress the Yun family's economy.
The neck of the Yun family is average, and the move of the Thirteenth Princess is undoubtedly to give the Yun family an oxygen bottle. How could this not make Emperor Wanchang angry? Fortunately, the Thirteenth Princess is his most beloved daughter after all, and these
He has made a lot of money by controlling Yinfengzhai on his behalf over the years, so he would only use such a covert method to remind him
Yun Zheng couldn't help but feel a little emotional when he thought about this. It's really tiring to be an emperor. Even having a marriage ceremony with his daughter has something to do with "national policy".
After the meeting ended, Yun Zheng looked a little unhappy and walked out alone. Before he had gone far, he heard Lin Xi calling him from behind.
"Chengfeng, hey, why are you leaving so fast? Wait for me!"
Yun Zheng turned around: "Why, what's the matter?"
"Come on, get in my car and talk"
"I came here on horseback, what should I do with the horse?"
"What do you care about that horse? I'll just ask someone to pull it back for you. Stop talking nonsense and come quickly."
Yun Zheng reluctantly followed Lin Xi into his carriage. He was not polite as soon as he got on the carriage. He sat down first and then waited for Lin Xi to explain why he was called here.
Lin Xi sat down and said: "The matter of Thirteenth Sister setting up that shop with you, let Father know about it."
Yunzheng rolled his eyes at him: "I've already guessed it, but I still need you to tell me."
Lin Xi was stunned for a moment: "I just got the news, how did you guess it?"
Yun Zheng curled his lips and said: "Yan'er's ceremony is scheduled to be on the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month. Isn't it obvious?"
Lin Xi opened her eyes wide: "Did you see it?"
"What are you talking about! Can't I see it?" Yun Zheng glared at Lin Xi and said
Lin Xi laughed dryly and said: "You didn't care about this before, how could I know... By the way, Thirteenth Sister probably won't be able to come out these days. Let's leave the matter of your store alone for now."
Let it go, of course we have to let it go. The emperor is angry right now. We still have to rely on the trade routes that the royal family has paved to sell iron. Naturally, we can't make the emperor angry. But just letting it go is probably useless.
We can't just stop selling goods because the emperor is unhappy, right? We have to wait until we see Yan'er to discuss this matter with her.
"Yeah, I understand," Yunzheng replied somewhat depressedly.
"There is something else I need to discuss with you." Lin Xi looked at Yun Zheng and said
"What's the matter? Tell me"
"Due to the shape of the hidden weapon, Stormgate is expected to be involved in this murder. The spear they used was produced by your Yun family's workshop. Do you think you can remove the suspicion for them?" He coughed:
"You know this, so it's not convenient for me to come forward."
Hey, it turns out that Lin Xi is not really unhelpful?
Yunzheng smiled mysteriously: "You're late."
Lin Xi was startled: "What do you mean? Has the Ministry of Punishment already approached your workshop?"
"Hahahaha!" Yun Zheng laughed loudly: "My Six Wise Kings, it turns out that you also have misunderstandings sometimes?"
"...Say!" Lin Xi gritted her teeth.
"Actually, it's nothing. Zuo Dongming was afraid that you would ignore him, so he told me about this. Didn't he just ask the people below to come forward to prove it to them? It's nothing. I have already agreed, so don't worry.
, it won’t cause you to lose a lot of income." Yunzheng waved his hands.
Lin Xi said "Oh", thought for a while and said: "That's right, that's okay" and then added: "This Zuo Dongming actually doesn't believe me. Don't I look more reliable than you?"
Yunzheng made a retching motion and said in a voice: "You are the only one who can be trusted?"
"Why am I unreliable?" Lin Xi opened his eyes: "I can almost meet the requirements mentioned by the saint."
Yun Zheng said disdainfully: "Do you have broad shoulders? Do you have a warm chest? Do you have strong arms? ...No? How dare I say you look reliable without you?!" Yun Zheng looked contemptuous.
Lin Xi was stunned. Broad shoulders, warm chest, strong arms? What does this have to do with looking reliable?
The poor Six Wise Kings naturally don’t know that this is a “standard” from the 21st century.
