Anyway, Liu Tong is at odds with the ministers in the court. He is a virtuous person. No, no, no, I am not virtuous at all. My specialty is spending money, all kinds of random spending. Don't talk nonsense about other things.
"Si Niang, remember, if you still think about the happy days before, don't learn those things." Liu Tong gently reached out and put his hand on Si Niang's shoulder, and said solemnly, "Also
Yes, pretend you are stupid, stubborn rocks can be carved, you have to pretend that you are rotten wood that cannot be carved!"
Si Niang nodded repeatedly. Rather than eating well, drinking well, and having fun, it would be better to give up the education of those big guys. After all, the latter can neither eat nor drink, which is not good at all.
Seeing that Si Niang heard what he said in her heart, Liu Tong nodded with satisfaction. Although Liu Tong was still very confident in the abilities of his ministers, if those guys were serious about doing something, they would basically succeed.
, but that ability is completely useless.
It is always difficult to learn well, but it is always easy to learn bad. With this alone, Liu Tong can have a good fight with the ministers.
"I'm very satisfied. I decided to take you to Weiyang Palace for afternoon tea." Liu Tong patted Si Niang's shoulder proudly, fighting with her and poaching her. The ministers must have thought too much.
Si Niang nodded repeatedly and followed Liu Tong to have afternoon tea. Studying, alas, compared to eating, drinking and having fun, studying is really a bit painful.
In Chang'an, Chen Xi came home from the court meeting and found that his wife had not returned from offering incense. But that's right, there were so many people in the temple on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the maid at home, Chen Xi, also waved her hand to allow them to go home to visit relatives, and the guards
Except for some singles without fathers and mothers, everyone else also went home to celebrate the New Year.
With Liu Bei taking control of Chang'an and Chen Xi taking charge, the lives of the people throughout the Central Plains have obviously begun to change. At least meat, whether it is fish, goose, mutton, or pork, has finally begun to appear in people's bowls.
arrive.
Although this level is just one thing, from Chen Xi's point of view, he doesn't even bother to say it, but when compared vertically in this era, it is really a prosperous age that is rare in a thousand years. Naturally, Yuan Feng's dynasty,
Liu Tong didn't say anything extra. He was still regarded as a virtuous man by the people, and all the ministers in the court were considered capable ministers and officials.
In short, the common people have no interest in what the above-mentioned people do. They are very realistic about what they eat today, what they eat tomorrow, and what they eat the day after tomorrow. It would be better if they have all their children, and some grandchildren and so on.
But that's it.
As for the struggle between the upper class, to be honest, the common people really watch it for fun. It would be even better if they could catch up with them.
Therefore, the evaluation of the Yuanfeng Dynasty has begun to develop in a direction that the ministers who have experienced the three dynasties are not willing to develop. What's even worse is that the historians don't care about the feelings of you ministers. They write straightly. The common people's senses are good.
If it is a benevolent government, then it is a truly benevolent government. You ministers, please compare it with previous dynasties and feel it for yourselves.
This made those ministers who had lived for several dynasties feel very uncomfortable. Didn't they live so hard just to leave a few wise words in the history books? As a result, the Yuanfeng Dynasty played like this, and it seemed that something was wrong with them, but they couldn't stop it.
The people's mouths are very helpless.
"Butler, I'm going out for a while. When Madam and the others come back, just tell me that Guo Fengxiao and I went to listen to music." Chen Xi looked around to make sure that Fan Jian and the others were not there, and then he said hello decisively.
"Okay, Master!" The old housekeeper looked intently. Although he knew exactly where Chen Xi planned to run, he still pretended that he didn't know anything.
After Chen Xi went out and looked around, he determined that no one was there. He quickly changed to a bicycle frame without any decorations or clan emblem and cloud pattern, and drove towards Cai Yan.
Compared with other women who are very likely to go to incense on the first day of the new year, Cai Yan will not go to the incense at all. After all, to a certain extent, Cai Yan has the characteristics of a large part of the head of the family, so on the first day of the new year
Just be obedient and offer sacrifices to your ancestors.
So when Chen Xi sneaked over along the wall, Cai Yan and Cai Chen were offering incense to the ancestors of the Cai family. Although Cai Chen kept crying during this period, Cai Yan not only did not feel dissatisfied, but actually
The smiling man took the crying Cai Chen to burn incense together.
"Hey, hey, hey, your son is crying, and you don't care about him." Chen Xi came in, picked up Cai Chen, held him in his arms, patted his back and began to comfort him.
Cai Chen, who was only a few months old, could barely recognize people. The person in front of him was not too unfamiliar, and he didn't make any fuss when he picked him up. He just pressed his dark eyes on Chen Xi's chest. After a few times, he was like, wow.
There was a cry, which was louder than the previous commotion, which was very embarrassing.
"..." Chen Xi's various soothing methods had no effect at all. On the contrary, the more he was comforted, the louder the noise became. Cai Yan had no choice but to look around to see if there was no one else. Instead of offering incense and praying one by one, he quickly placed the incense sticks one by one.
After plugging it in, we prayed together.
Seeing this kind of operation, Chen Xi didn't know what to say. Chen Xi had also seen Cai Yan worshiping his ancestors before. He was very sincere and in line with the etiquette. Every one of them burned incense, paid three respects, and then prayed. What's the difference between this and now?
The situation is completely different.
"Don't look at me like that. I think if my son was crying when I was worshiping my ancestors, my ancestors would probably ask me to take care of their son. Who makes me less important than my son?" Cai Yan took Cai Chen and hugged him.
Okay, I tapped it a few times with my left hand, maybe I smelled a familiar smell, and stopped making trouble after a few times, "Look, I stopped crying at all."
"You're not hungry either." Chen Xi looked at Cai Chen in Cai Yan's arms strangely. He thought he was hungry before, but he didn't eat or poop, so why didn't he cry?
"Maybe I'm used to it." Cai Yan said with a smile, and then walked out of the ancestral temple with his son in his arms. No woman can't enter the ancestral temple. She is the only one left in the family. If she can't go in, she can only wait.
The ancestors have fallen into ashes.
Chen Xi followed Cai Yan to the side hall. It was the New Year's Day itself, so everything was prepared, so when he came over, all the food was already ready.
It’s just that Cai Yan was obviously a little tired, and Cai Chen didn’t want to go to the wet nurse, so in the end he could only hold her at the table together. During this period, he saw his parents eating, and kept reaching out babblingly, but in the end they couldn’t eat anything.
I cried as soon as I heard it.
"No matter how many times I've seen him, it's still so difficult." Chen Xi said, dumbfounded as he watched Cai Chen cry again, while Cai Yan carried Cai Chen to the back hall out of habit.
"Are you asleep?" When he came out again, Cai Yan was the only one left. Chen Xi glanced at him and asked curiously.
"Well, I went to sleep." Cai Yan nodded and said, "I understand Tang Fei a little now. There are some things that you really can't learn without experiencing it."
"I know it now." Chen Xi said with a smile.
Cai Yan nodded slightly, "Except for being a little tired, everything is fine. And since I had Chen'er, my father no longer comes to give me dreams."
The corner of Chen Xi's mouth twitched twice, but he didn't say anything. He was just thinking about it day by day and dreaming about it at night.
"But this is okay, and I shouldn't be responsible for it. When I go back and educate Cai Chen properly, he will inherit all this." Although there was obvious fatigue between Cai Yan's brows, his mood was obviously better than before.
Too many.
"You are so young and have to shoulder so much. You are so cruel as a mother." Chen Xi said with a smile, "Suddenly I feel that being your son should be very tiring."
Cai Yan was startled for a moment, then smiled. Chen Xi and she looked at this matter from different angles, but they will naturally be the same in the future. It's not that they want their children to succeed, but it's a natural desire to use what they have learned to their own.
All the feelings passed down to his children.
"Are you going to offer incense this afternoon?" Chen Xi asked curiously.
"No, let's go during the Lantern Festival." Cai Yan shook his head slightly.
"Are you still used to it now?" Chen Xi asked tentatively.
Cai Yan smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about my endurance. I didn't understand what my second sister did before. Now, in fact, some things may be quite stressful before you do them, but after you do them, you don't need to think about the benefits."
Got something.”
Cai Bojie was also unlucky. He only had two daughters. In the end, both daughters took an unusual route. The second lady didn’t even mention it, and the eldest lady was basically like that. A guy with a great Confucian level, gave birth to such a
My two daughters really have doubts about life.
Cai Yan used to think that his second sister should be under heavy psychological pressure, but after he took that step, he felt that it didn't matter anymore. To a certain extent, this was also a symbol of bad learning, but Cai Yan had a problem
Son, in fact, he has bypassed a lot of rumors.
"That's good." Chen Xi held the tea cup without saying anything. After all, he was the one who reached out first. He had to at least hold up the sky. If he couldn't do this, then he wouldn't be called Chen Zichuan.
The two looked at each other speechlessly, both smiling. Although Cai Yan looked tired, he was not embarrassed by being speechless. The same was true for Chen Xi, who seemed relaxed and natural.
In the end, Chen Xi did not stay with Cai Yan for a long time, but actually went to visit Guo Jia. During this period, he also met Guo Jia, who was completely shameless after having a brain disease. He directly ordered his son to pounce on Chen Xi and ask for new year's money.
Chen Xi was very angry about this. When he took Guo Jia out, he expressed deeply that after two years, he would also take his son to attack Guo Jia, so that Guo Jia would be ready by then.
"Hey, that's good. Have you got the four-wheeled carriage again?" Guo Jia jumped on the carriage and said with a smile, "This is the second time, are you going to promote this thing again?"
Over the years, Chen Xi has promoted many convenient gadgets. Most of them existed in this era, but were not popularized. Or they may have some minor problems in this era, but they can be easily used after improvements.
However, among so many promoted gadgets, one was a failure, which was the four-wheeled carriage that Chen Xi once again pulled out.
"It was my negligence before, but now it's settled." Chen Xi said proudly.
Four-wheeled carriages have many advantages over two-wheeled carriages, but four-wheeled carriages have two very big disadvantages, one is the road surface requirements, and the other is the turning requirements.
Basically, four-wheeled carriages can only go straight in and out, and cannot make big turns. Therefore, Chen Xi's last promotion of four-wheeled carriages was a shameful failure. Although the road surface is already very suitable, it is very embarrassing if he cannot turn.
In addition, there was not much demand for carrying capacity at that time, so the four-wheeled carriage was abandoned.
However, after three years of development, material transportation has become a very important business. The carrying capacity and stability of the two-wheeled carriages have big problems, so the four-wheeled carriages are used by some families who work in this area.
Digging out of history.
In the end, the family came up with two plans. One was to use Qin Shihuang's rail carriage. However, this required state support and the state had to start the project before it could be implemented. Otherwise, it would be really impossible for a family with one surname to do it.
Of course, the advantage of this solution is that it is fast, and the carrying capacity can be increased to a quite exaggerated level. The only disadvantage is that you can't afford it if you don't have money.
Even though the family was rich, it was not something they could afford, so they came up with the second plan - the chassis steering gear. Although when the thing was built, the group of people thought it was very simple, but when it was built,
Before I came out, I never thought I could play like this.
Then a new way of playing was developed - chariots can also be equipped with chassis steering gears, so the family that has already run out has tried hard to order eight hundred chariots. Yes, this family's surname is Yang, which is Hongnong.
Yang.
Because I have been engaged in the logistics industry for the past three years, in order to reduce costs and recruit more personnel, there is a great demand for the transportation volume of the frame, which then led to the four-wheeled carriage. In order to solve the steering problem of the four-wheeled carriage, so we created
If the chassis steering gear is installed, the logic is just like this.
Of course, the old Yang family has not revealed their intention to develop a new type of chariot at all. They still pretend that they are actually infantry, and they are rookie infantry. But in fact, the old Yang family has secretly prepared to fight with the Parthians in China.
Yakugang's preparation.
I heard that your Holy Death Cavalry is very strong, right? Come on, come on, it will be tough against the three-oxen and two-horse chariot from the front. The super-heavy cavalry like Zhang Jaw that can turn can be considered a top-level imperial guard. I can turn that chariot.
The chariot has not yet reached the sky, but the Yang family knows very well that they can only play it once. Maybe after the first exposure, those inhumane families will directly copy their masterpiece.
However, for the Yang family, once is enough. Compared with the Cui family squatting in the Caspian Sea to strengthen the family, the Yang family squatted in the Caspian Sea to eat Aldashir. Compared with other ways of growing up, the old Yang family thought
It's better to take some risks and take a gamble. If you succeed, you will be a prince for generations. If you lose, there will be nothing to say.
But the misfortune of the Yang family was that when they used four-wheeled carriages to engage in the logistics industry in China, Chen Xi noticed this thing and then prepared to copy it without any sense of restraint...
