When Zhao Xin came to Zhao Zhen's bedroom, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty had already woken up. When he saw his beloved son, Zhao Zhen showed a bitter smile on his face: "Why is Erlang here?"
"My son heard that Aye was ill occasionally, and he was worried about it, so he came to visit Aye!" Zhao Xin walked up to him, with a small body, she managed to climb to the edge of the bed and touched her father's slightly cold hand.
As a son, how could Zhao Xin not know about his father's body?
Zhao Zhen is a person with a good temper and good character.
But no one is perfect, and this official of the Song Dynasty also had a lot of shortcomings.
Greedy, lustful, lazy, afraid of difficulties, and lacks perseverance.
In particular, this lust lasted throughout his life, and it was not until his later years, after a stroke, that his language and body functions were greatly limited, that he stopped tossing it.
Before that, this official had implemented the spirit of "If you don't seek death, you won't die."
He has suffered from lung disease since he was a child, and he keeps coughing when he catches a cold.
The imperial doctor and the ministers around him all said that fishy fish should be avoided, but Zhao Zhen loved all kinds of river seafood the most in his life.
He likes saury, crabs, and clams, and he can't help but be greedy.
When the Empress Dowager Zhang Xianmingsu was there, he was not allowed to have access to these things, and Zhao Zhen felt a little resentful.
Empress Dowager Yang of Baoqing doted on him and often hid snacks for him behind Empress Dowager Liu's back.
As a result, this official became closer to Empress Dowager Yang.
His love for the Yang family has always been profound.
If he can't control his mouth, don't expect him to be able to control his lower body.
Two talented people, Empress Guo, Yang and Shang, fought for favor and caused chaos in the palace.
Up to now, Empress Cao and Zhang Cairen are fighting each other.
And all the things that happened later.
It's all caused by his lustful, soft-hearted, and infatuated nature.
only……
Zhao Xin, who has lived a lifetime, looked at his father's pale face and weak demeanor, and sighed in his heart: "Since God has allowed me to live another life, in this life, you have to listen to me!"
I already have a plan in mind.
All saury, crabs, and clams must disappear from this imperial city starting from today.
If you really want to eat it, then just enjoy it during the New Year and the holidays.
As for women…
Take a rest on 135, and wander around on 246.
I couldn't just watch my father suffer a stroke at the age of forty, lose most of his speech ability, and have to be helped to walk!
As for whether Zhao Zhen is willing to listen? Is he willing to listen?
Then it’s not up to him!
One hundred thousand trolls are already in place.
Hair dryers like Yu Jing and Bao Zheng are prepared for them.
Zhao Zhen looked at Aizi's nervous expression and felt very guilty in his heart. He raised his hand with great effort and asked someone to pick up Zhao Xin and put him in front of him. Then he stroked Zhao Xin's little back and said:
"I'm afraid Aye will drag Erlang down this time..."
"Soon, everyone in Bianjing will know that Aye has been so ugly today..."
"How dare they!" Zhao Xin said seriously: "Aye, I will summon the Kaifeng Mansion immediately to seal down all tabloids and lock up all those who sell tabloids!"
"Don't..." Zhao Zhen grabbed Zhao Xin's hand and said, "People can just talk about it casually, without any malice... and don't silence people with harsh punishments..."
"Besides, it's better to defend the people's mouth than to defend the river!"
"My son, I want to do Yao and Shun, how can I do such a thing?"
Zhao Xin listened and sighed in his heart.
His father had a lot of shortcomings.
But for the people, that is really good!
Just like now, wars are raging along the border, and countless funds and wealth are being spent like water.
However, the two taxes of the people in the world have not increased at all. On the contrary, if there is a disaster somewhere, Chang Pingcang will immediately release grain.
Just like the year before last, there was severe drought and famine on Yizhou Road and Li Road, and millions of people were displaced.
Zhao Zhen sent Han Qi to comfort and settle them. Zuo Zang and Sansi paid millions of dollars to resettle all the refugees without any trouble!
Since farmers do not suffer losses, then someone must suffer losses.
Who suffers?
The answer is the emperor himself!
In recent years, the profits from salt and tea, which could have amounted to several million pounds a year, have all been invested in disaster relief work along Yanbian and Yizhou Road.
Not only that, Zuo Zang also invested a lot of savings.
This kind of thing may be commonplace in later generations.
But looking through the entire history of feudal dynasties, how many kings can do it?
It should be noted that the emperor is the king of the world.
He has a cold nature and is ungrateful, and is known as a tough guy.
Want to take money from the emperor's pocket and pay for the common people?
In the entire feudal history, which spans more than two thousand years, how many can there be?
Perhaps it was precisely because of the character and temper of this official family that the social culture and economy of the Song Dynasty prospered rapidly.
During Renzong's reign, the number of great writers and rulers accounted for almost half of the entire Northern Song Dynasty!
Six of the eight great masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties emerged under his rule!
Thinking of this, Zhao Xin also sighed, snuggled into his father's arms, and said softly: "Aye, you are so great!"
Zhao Zhen listened and smiled bitterly: "What a great thing..."
"From now on, Erlang, you can't imitate Aye..."
"I'm afraid it's difficult for a king like Aye to achieve great things..."
You know yourself best.
Especially when he fell ill, his mind and thinking were the clearest and objective.
Because, he had to consider the worst case scenario.
only……
Holding Aizi in his arms, Zhao Zhen looked at Aizi's tender face and cute look, and told himself: "I can't fall down yet!"
My son is still young, only two years old!
The biological mother is timid and cowardly by nature.
Although Empress Cao has always been resolute and decisive, she is only in her twenties and does not have the ability to take good care of and raise the young prince like Empress Dowager Liu.
He even lacks the confidence and skill to convince those extremely shrewd ministers, relatives as cunning as foxes, and meritorious officials of the three yamen.
It is also impossible to have enough ability to deal with various external threats and blackmails such as Liao people and Yuan Hao once something happens to him.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen regretted it.
"I'm really too careless..."
"In the future, you will never be able to act like this without any scruples!"
He must hold on and survive.
You must wait until your son grows up and has enough prestige and team to take charge of the country and exercise power.
But now, all preparations must be made and everything arranged.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen asked Queen Cao who was beside the bed: "When will the Queen, the Prime Minister and the ministers of the Privy Council come?"
Queen Cao had been sobbing with her head down. When she heard Zhao Zhen's words, she quickly wiped away her tears and pretended to be calm and replied: "Go back to the official's house. I have sent someone to inform you. They should be here soon."
Bar?"
"When the ministers come, first call in Zeng Gongliang, the scholar of the Hanlin Academy and the judge..." Zhao Zhen looked at the curtain above the bed, resisting his physical weakness, and said in a weak but powerful voice.
Queen Cao raised her head and looked at Zhao Zhen. She knew that her husband was preparing for the worst case scenario.
