Walking into Funing Palace, I was sitting in the seat with a fist on my temple, closing my eyes and taking a nap. Zhao Jun didn't wake him up, just found a place to sit down, and imitated him to close his eyes and take a nap. stand up.
It just so happens that I got up too early in the morning and am now a little sleepy.
Cao Shuang, who brought him in, opened his eyes wide when he saw him behaving like this. His eyes were full of disbelief. He didn't understand why King Yun was so bold. He found a place to sit by himself before His Majesty gave him a seat!
Maybe it was a quarter of an hour, or maybe two-quarters of an hour.
Zhao Duan, who had been taking a nap with his eyes closed, woke up slowly. When he opened his eyes, he saw Zhao Jun, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed in the same position next to him. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
When he came together, Cao Shuang, who had been waiting on the side, hurriedly poked Zhao Jun who was still taking a nap, waking Zhao Jun up from his sleep.
Opening his drowsy eyes, he saw that the cheap man from home had woken up and was staring at him inexplicably.
"Ah? Father, are you awake? Do you want to sleep a little longer?"
Zhao Jun said the above words naturally.
The corner of Cao Shuang's mouth was twitching. Listen for yourself. I can clearly hear the calculation behind your words from two miles away.
Why do you ask Your Majesty to sleep a little longer? It's obviously because you haven't slept enough yet and you just want to sleep a little longer.
Even Zhao Duan was troubled by the behavior of his sixth son.
Shaking his head, Zhao Duan said in a deep voice: "You are quite comfortable. Among all the princes who come to my palace, you are the most comfortable. Even the prince has never been as comfortable as you."
Zhao Junhun smiled nonchalantly and said, "That's because they regard Father as the Holy One."
Zhao Duan found this very interesting, so he asked again: "How do you say this? If they regard me as a saint, then what do you regard me as?"
Just listen to Zhao Jun chuckle and say:
“Of course I regard him as my father.
Father, this is my son's home. I am more comfortable in my own home, so I shouldn't make any mistakes, right? "
Zhao Duan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then burst into laughter.
"Hahahahaha! Interesting! You are quite interesting! Very interesting!"
Then Zhao Duan pointed at Zhao Jun and said:
"Okay, then I won't pursue your disrespectful behavior.
What you said is correct. You are my prince, and my palace is your home. You can naturally feel more comfortable in your own home without being so restrained. "
"Hehe, I thank my father!"
Zhao Jun quickly handed over his hand to thank him.
Zhao Duan was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
He was so careless that he allowed this boy to plot against him.
That's all, just think of it as a little compensation for him.
Having said that and laughed, let’s get back to the topic.
Zhao Duan adjusted his sitting posture and signaled to Cao Shuang. Cao Shuang immediately understood and quickly started preparing tea. In a short time, a set of white jade coffee tables were brought to the two of them.
Two colorful glass cups were placed in front of the two of them, and Cao Shuang carefully poured the soaked tea into their cups.
The heat is boiling, and the turquoise tea is as beautiful as transparent green jade.
After pouring the tea, Cao Shuang immediately stepped aside.
Zhao Duan picked up one of the cups and took a sip.
Um.
The temperature is just right!
Zhao Jun also picked up another cup and drank it without ceremony.
Just like that, the father and son each held a cup of fragrant tea and quietly tasted it.
"What do you think about my marriage to you?"
"Being born in the Heavenly Family, it is difficult to have freedom in marriage. I only hope that my father will choose a charming and beautiful woman for me, and that will be considered a blessing."
After hearing this, Zhao Duan suddenly smiled when he thought of Ye Wei's daughter who seemed a bit stubborn.
"Although she is not charming, she still has her own unique character. You are on the border, so a princess with such a character should be suitable for you."
"That's alright. I would like to thank my father for the marriage!"
Zhao Jun smiled and continued to drink the tea in his hand.
There was another moment of silence between the two.
After a while, Zhao Duan asked again: "How is Yunzhou County now? I heard that the Tatar invasion caused a lot of losses some time ago, right?
It is also said that those Tatars who surrendered are not very stable either. "
Gently blowing on the tea in the cup, causing a circle of ripples, Zhao Junhun said nonchalantly: "Fortunately, with the soldiers' hard work, those Tatars finally retreated.
In addition, Erchen spent a lot of money to bring so many people from the pass to replenish the soldiers of the escort. The Tatar tribes that surrendered immediately became stable, and Erchen also drew some manpower from their various tribes to form a group. Got a cavalry.
Now the strength on paper is stronger than before. "
"On paper?"
Zhao Duan was keenly aware of the key words.
Zhao Jun nodded: "The previous guards had been trained for five years, and from time to time they were sent out by the ministers to deal with some small Tatar tribes who came to the Yunzhou County to work in the grass valley.
But the last time the Tatars tried to attack, they could be regarded as destroying the elite soldiers of Erchen. Now, although the number of soldiers has been replenished, the combat effectiveness is definitely not comparable to before. "
"Have you considered expanding the army too much?"
"I don't have any money, Father!"
Zhao Jun sighed, and then said: "Even if we, the Song Dynasty people, have completely established a foothold in Yunzhou County after gathering so many refugees back, problems will also arise.
Yunzhou County is already short of food. Feeding so many people must consume a lot of food. Where does the food come from?
Then you can only buy it, and it will cost a lot of money.
All the money earned by Erchen Yetie was put in, and it was barely enough, but it was only enough to keep the people from starving to death.
This time Eunuch Yuan and the others should have seen clearly wherever they went, the streets of Yunzhou City were full of homeless people who were like walking dead, half-dead. "
Zhao Duan was silent for a while, then sighed and said: "In this day and age, it is already good for the people to be alive.
At least there is something to eat with you. If I had continued to stay in the pass, I would have starved to death long ago.
Very good, very good. "
Zhao Jun suddenly changed the subject and said with a smile: "So in order to keep the people fed, I am planning to create a new source of income.
I wonder if Eunuch Yuan has reported anything about cement to his father? "
Zhao Duan nodded: "Is that the method that can quickly harden the sand?"
"Yes, that's it!"
Zhao Duan frowned and asked doubtfully: "Can some sand really become that hard?"
Zhao Jun said, "Hearing is false and seeing is true. Why don't my father order someone to give it a try?"
Seeing what he said so confidently, Zhao Duan put away some of his doubts.
Said: "Okay, then I will find time to try it."
Then he said: "If this is true, it is indeed a good business, not only for the construction of city walls, but also for the construction of roads and buildings in various places. It is of great use.
Both the government and the private sector have a lot to do.
So how do you plan to split this? "
In response, Zhao Jun said without hesitation: "Twenty-eight points!"
Zhao Duan took another sip of tea and said leisurely: "Are you two or eight?"
Zhao Jun had a dark look on his face: "Eight sons and ministers, two emperors and fathers!"
Zhao Duan shook his head: "Since you gave this to me, you want me to help promote it, and you are using my face. Is the emperor's face so worthless?"
"Father! Yunzhou County is suffering!"
"Good boy, the imperial court is poor!"
The two of them were silent together.
