As the saying goes, "Extreme wisdom will inevitably lead to injury."
There is also a word called "Heaven is jealous of talents".
Since ancient times, extremely smart people have not lived long.
He Lianfang couldn't help but feel worried when she saw that Zhao Yao was too smart. However, fortunately, Zhao Yao knew Zangzhuo, and others did not know his intelligence, otherwise this child would never live to adulthood.
After Zhao Yao finished talking about how he made the dog of the aristocratic family bite the dog, he saw He Lianfang looking at him with complicated eyes. He thought he had said something wrong and hurriedly asked: "Second uncle, am I wrong?"
He Lianfang came back to her senses, put away the complexity in her eyes, and smiled gently at Zhao Yao: "You are absolutely right!" Xiao Shi, a child, was not as sharp in political affairs as he was.
What Xiao Shi just said about how to make the family's dogs bite the dogs shocked him so much that even he couldn't think of such a wonderful method.
"Second uncle, your face didn't look very good just now. I thought you were wrong."
"Xiao Shi, did you think of the method you just mentioned yourself, or was it someone else told you?"
"I thought about it myself, no one told me." Zhao Yao said with a puzzled look, "Besides, no one else would ask me this kind of question. I would only say it in front of you." He told others Isn't this a matter of seeking death?
Sure enough, it was the kid's own idea.
He Lianfang sighed in her heart again: This child is born to be an emperor.
"Xiao Shi, when you grow up, you'd better ask your father to go somewhere far away." He Lianfang thought for a while and said, "It's best to go to southern Xinjiang."
"Ah, going to Southern Xinjiang?" Zhao Yao has never thought of going to Southern Xinjiang. "Second uncle, the place I want to go to when I grow up is Qingzhou."
"Qingzhou?" He Lianfang asked with confusion on her face, "Why Qingzhou?" This kid had even thought about his own fiefdom. With this kid's temperament and intelligence, I'm afraid everything has already been arranged in Qingzhou.
He Lianfang really guessed it.
"Qingzhou is small, it's located by the sea, and it's poor. No one wants to rob it from me." Zhao Yao added, "When I grow up, all the good places will be taken away by the emperor's brothers. I guess only Qingzhou, the emperor's brothers I won’t want it.”
"Do you think Qingzhou is an insignificant place?"
Zhao Yao asked: "Isn't it?"
He Lianfang chuckled and said: "Qingzhou is not an insignificant place. Currently, there is only Qingzhou in the entire Zhou Dynasty, and there is no complete sea ban. Do you know about this?"
"I just found out recently..." Zhao Yao suddenly thought of something. He immediately widened his eyes and opened his mouth wide in surprise, "It's over, I can't go to Qingzhou." Ahhhhhh, why didn't he think of this. In the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, only Qingzhou had contacts with overseas foreign countries. Based on this alone, Qingzhou is not what he wants.
Seeing that Zhao Yao understood, He Lianfang teased him and said, "Why didn't you think of this, you smart little melon?"
"I didn't know about the Great Zhou Forbidden Sea." Zhao Yao said with an annoyed look on his face, "I only found out about this some time ago."
"Have you sent someone to Qingzhou to make arrangements a long time ago?"
Seeing that He Lianfang was right, Zhao Yao didn't hide anything and told He Lianfang about his uncle opening a restaurant in Qingzhou.
Although He Lianfang guessed that Zhao Yao must have made arrangements in Qingzhou, he did not expect that Zhao Yao had made such careful arrangements. This kid really takes one step at a time and sees ten steps ahead.
"You really plan for a rainy day."
Zhao Yao smiled sheepishly: "Aren't I preparing to be an idle prince when I go to the fiefdom in the future?" It's over, Qingzhou can't go, and everything he has done is in vain.
Seeing Zhao Yao looking like he was about to cry, He Lianfang couldn't help laughing, and immediately comforted him and said, "Although you won't be able to go to Qingzhou in the future, everything you did in Qingzhou was not in vain."
Zhao Yao said with a bitter face: "Second uncle, you don't know that I have other arrangements."
"What other things have you arranged?" How many things did this boy arrange in advance?
Zhao Yao said bitterly: "I plan to build a fleet and then go to the Western Ocean to do maritime trade."
He Lianfang: "..." He was wrong. This kid took one step and looked at the other twenty. How did Zhao Zheng give birth to such a monster son? "The Great Zhou Dynasty did not open the sea ban."
"I know, but my father will definitely open it in the future." Zhao Yao felt that the emperor was not a fool, and would definitely understand how much benefit the opening of the sea ban would bring to the Great Zhou Dynasty. "I am preparing in advance. When the sea ban is abolished, my The fleet can immediately sail to the Western Ocean and come back with a lot of money."
He Lianfang: "..." If this boy doesn't become a prince, but becomes a businessman, he will definitely become the richest man in the world.
Speaking of maritime trade, Zhao Yao explained the benefits of maritime trade to He Lianfang in detail.
He Lianfang didn't know much about maritime trade, but after hearing what Zhao Yao said, he felt that maritime trade was just a "money bag."
"I read a book and found out that many overseas countries have mountains of gold and silver. If we can get their hands on their mountains of gold and silver, Da Zhou will be rich." Zhao Yao thought to himself, "There are mountains of gold and silver in those countries." The place seems to be on the Japanese side. I will have to find a way to get there in the future, and then get the Jinshan and Silver Mountains.
"What, do you still want to go overseas in the future?"
"I have this idea."
"You are quite thoughtful." He Lianfang said, suddenly thinking of Zhao Yao's previous arrangements for the caravan to go to the Western Regions, and he instantly understood something. "Your kid arranges the caravan to go to the Western Regions. The most important thing is to make money."
"Yes." Zhao Yao said with a smile, "You can also make a lot of money by going to the Western Regions."
He Lianfang was silent for a while, then asked: "What do you do with so much money?"
"Of course it is. I will do a lot of things in the fiefdom in the future. What will I do if I don't have money." Zhao Yao said, "Besides, I will also travel around and eat delicious food all over the world. How can I go out and have fun if I don't have money." He doesn't want to travel on a budget.
This kid is really good at making money.
"You'd better go to Southern Xinjiang." He Lianfang said, "The countries near Southern Xinjiang are all overseas foreign countries."
"Southern Xinjiang... is too far... and it's very hot and miasmatic there." Wait, there seems to be a lot of delicious food in southern Xinjiang. A poet from the history of Zhao Yao's world in the dream once visited Southern Xinjiang and wrote many poems about the delicious food in Southern Xinjiang. By the way, there is a fruit called lychee, which seems to be delicious.
"Southern Xinjiang is not all forests, there are also towns. Let you go to Southern Xinjiang, but it does not ask you to live in seclusion in the woods." He Lianfang analyzed to Zhao Yao, "Southern Xinjiang is indeed very far, but there are advantages to being far away. It’s far away from the capital, and people in the capital won’t set their sights on southern Xinjiang, because everyone thinks like you that southern Xinjiang is a barbaric place.”
"You went to Southern Xinjiang. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. Not only will you not be watched by your father, but you will not attract the attention of the ministers. You can do whatever you want in Southern Xinjiang." He Lianfang knew what Zhao Yao was thinking now, " If you go to southern Xinjiang, you will be completely free."
"Yes." Zhao Yao's eyes suddenly became bright. Why didn't he think of this? "Second uncle is right, Southern Xinjiang is a good place."
"If you take the initiative to request an order to go to southern Xinjiang in the future, the emperor will definitely agree."
"Wait a minute, I remember that General Yan is guarding Southern Xinjiang. He is the father's confidant." General Yan will definitely monitor him in Southern Xinjiang and then secretly report his actions to his father.
"Yan Huarong will not stay in southern Xinjiang all his life. He will come back in a few years."
"That's right. When I grow up and go to Southern Xinjiang, I will be the biggest official in Southern Xinjiang. No one will dare to control me. I can do whatever I want." The more Zhao Yao thought about it, the more he thought it would be better to go to Southern Xinjiang. "Southern Xinjiang is far away from the capital. , this way I don’t have to get involved in the royal brothers’ fight for the right to be the heir, which is really great.”
Why didn't he think of southern Xinjiang before? Compared with Southern Xinjiang, Qingzhou is still closer to the capital, and it is also very close to the fiefdoms of the imperial brothers, which is very unsafe.
"Second uncle, you are still the best."
"What, you want to go to Southern Xinjiang now?"
Zhao Yao nodded repeatedly and said: "I want to go, I really want to go, Southern Xinjiang is a good place." After saying that, he thought of something and frowned slightly, "Second uncle, Southern Xinjiang is so big, where should I choose?" ah?"
He Lianfang said: "Lingnan."
"Lingnan?" Zhao Yao exclaimed, "Lingnan is a place of exile!"
He Lianfang smiled meaningfully: "Isn't this better? Who would pay attention to the place of exile?"
Zhao Yao understood what He Lianfang meant and his expression became very excited. He stood up suddenly and said: "Second uncle, you are right, Lingnan is a better place, then I will go to Lingnan."
He Lianfang smiled and said, "You can make arrangements in advance."
"I don't know much about Lingnan. I have to understand the situation there first before making arrangements." The eldest uncle went to Qingzhou, and the second uncle went to Wusun. He has no one to go to Lingnan for the time being.
"I will arrange for people to go to Lingnan, and then you will arrange for the Liang family to go to Lingnan."
What Zhao Yao was waiting for was He Lianfang's words. He quickly thanked He Lianfang with a smile: "Thank you, uncle."
He Lianfang couldn't see Zhao Yao's little thoughts, pointed at him and laughed and scolded: "Smelly boy."
Zhao Yao smiled flatteringly at He Lianfang: "Second uncle, there is no one around me anymore, I can only count on you."
He Lianfang also knew it in her heart. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will arrange everything for you."
"With the help of my second uncle, I don't have to worry."
"You also know that Lingnan is very poor. After my people find out about the situation there, you have to find a way to make money there." When it comes to doing business, He Lianfang feels inferior to Zhao Yao.
"This is natural." Zhao Yao thought to himself that he had to go back and study Lingnan to see if there were any business opportunities there.
"There are many people in Lingnan, so we can train some troops and dead soldiers." He Lianfang also suddenly thought of Lingnan, but at this time he had already thought of many things. "Even raise your own personal army."
"Private army?" Zhao Yao said in shock, "Second uncle, it is a serious crime to cultivate an army privately." He is not going to rebel, so why cultivate a private army of his own?
"Just in case." He Lianfang's expression suddenly became very sharp, "With a private army of your own, your safety can be guaranteed. Furthermore, Lingnan is a barbaric land, and you don't have an army. It’s hard to manage over there.”
"Also, the Piao, Funan, Lang and other countries near Lingnan have always been restless. If you have your own army, you can deal with them." He Lianfang's tone was full of bewitching, "You are secretly cultivating your own army in Lingnan. Someone will find out.”
Zhao Yao looked thoughtful when he heard this.
"Only when you have your own army can you manage and protect the people of Lingnan, do you understand?"
Zhao Yao nodded and said, "I understand."
"When you grow up, I'm afraid your royal brothers will be jealous and you go to Lingnan to train your own sergeants. Then this army will be your life-saving talisman."
Zhao Yao did not agree immediately, but seriously thought about whether this matter could be done.
Seeing that Zhao Yao was thinking, He Lianfang did not speak to urge him to agree, but quietly waited for him to figure it out.
After a while, Zhao Yao raised his eyes to look at He Lianfang and said, "Then just listen to your second uncle."
After hearing this, He Lianfang raised her lips and smiled: "Leave this matter to me."
"Okay." The second uncle is good at training soldiers. The army he trains will definitely be very powerful.
He Lianfang stopped talking about the court affairs and talked about the art of war.
Zhao Yao listened attentively.
At noon, He Lianfang specially ordered someone to buy a table of delicious dishes from Zhenxiu Restaurant to celebrate Zhao Yao's birthday.
"Second uncle, when is your birthday?" Zhao Yao asked.
"Why do you ask?"
"Of course I want to celebrate your birthday."
He Lianfang couldn't help but be stunned when she heard Zhao Yao's words. Back then, Prince Yiyong also asked him this question and said the same thing.
"February two."
"On the second day of February, the dragon raises its head. Second uncle, your birthday is very good." Zhao Yao said with a smile, "Second uncle, your birthday has already passed this year. I can't celebrate your birthday again. I can only wait until next year to celebrate your birthday." .”
He Lianfang felt a little sour in her heart: "Okay, I'll wait." When the master was still alive, the master would remember his birthday and celebrate his birthday every year. Obviously the master often doesn't remember his own birthday, but he always remembers his birthday. Since the master passed away, no one remembers his birthday, and no one celebrates his birthday.
"I will throw a lively birthday party for my second uncle then."
"I don't like the excitement, just have a meal with me."
"Okay." Zhao Yao said with a smile, "Starting from next year, I will celebrate your birthday with my second uncle every year."
He Lianfang's eyes were slightly moist, and her voice was choked: "Okay!"
Zhao Yao stretched out his hand to pick up some vegetables for He Lianfang, "Second uncle, eat more."
"This is a birthday party for you, please eat more."
"I will definitely eat more."
Whenever Zhao Yao is around, He Lianfang's appetite will get better.
After lunch, Zhao Yao and He Lianfang played chess.
After playing two games of chess, He Lianfang took out a book from the drawer and handed it to Zhao Yao: "This is your birthday gift."
Zhao Yao reached out to take the book and found that there were no words on the cover.
"Second uncle, what kind of book is this?"
"You'll know if you open it and take a look."
After hearing this, Zhao Yao couldn't wait to open the book and read it, and found that what was written inside was actually the art of war.
"Book of war?"
"Yes, it's a military book written by me."
"Second uncle, did you write it?" Zhao Yao said with a face of surprise, "Then this is a peerless treasure." After saying that, he quickly held it in his arms, looking like a very precious treasure.
"Why did the military book I wrote become a peerless treasure?"
"Second Uncle, you are like a god in your military skills. The military manual you wrote is of course a treasure, and it is hard to find in the world." Zhao Yao said, "Second Uncle, I am sure that your military manual has never been circulated outside."
"That's right, I have never taught this military book to anyone else." Everyone wanted to ask for the military book written by He Lianfang himself, but it was hard to find it.
"I knew it." Zhao Yao knelt down towards He Lianfang and kowtowed three times.
He Lianfang did not stop Zhao Yao from kowtowing, but accepted his three heads.
"Second uncle, don't worry, I will definitely read your military book carefully and I will never let you down."
"I believe you will not let me down." He Lianfang confessed, "You cannot pass this military book on to others, do you understand?"
"Second Uncle, I understand." This military book was the hard work of Second Uncle's life and he never taught it to outsiders. How could he just show it to others.
Zhao Yao stayed with He Lianfang and talked for a while before leaving. He will celebrate his birthday with Liang Guan and the others tonight.
After Zhao Yao left, He Lianfang said to the secret guard hiding in the dark: "Let Zhao Zheng come over tonight."
Hearing He Lianfang's rude tone, the secret guard was already used to it.
Soon, in the imperial study room of Chengguang Hall, the emperor was surprised to learn that He Lianfang took the initiative to see him.
"Fangfang actually took the initiative to see me. It seems she misses me."
Sun Kui on the side said silently in his heart: Your Majesty, that lunatic He Lianfang is definitely not doing anything good for you.
The second update is here.
He Lianfang: If this kid doesn't become emperor, it will be unforgivable.
Emperor Wu of Zhou: Fangfang, it’s rare that you and I have the same idea.
Zhao Yao: I don’t want to be the emperor, so don’t cheat me.
Author: You have fallen into the trap a long time ago.
Finally, I still ask for a monthly ticket! Please give me a reward! Please leave a message! Ask for everything!
