I became the son of Renzong

What are you playing?The daily activity area is so big that you can't even see a stranger, and you have to wear a fixed attire every day.

Does it make sense to fiddle with these?

The three women were all born, and they were all sons, who were already a hundred years old.

At that time, my sons were born one after another, which made my parents very happy.

Except for Taizu Taizong, the heirs of the royal family have never been as prosperous as Zhao Xi.The excited father didn't think about treasury at all, and gave a big reward once every child was born, from the courtiers to the whole Bianliang people.Even Tao Niang felt distressed for the money and food wasted, and all the rewards came from the East Palace.

"This...why?"

Zhao Xi didn't understand, what's the point of messing with this late at night?It's useless.

"Third brother, Wang Jiefu, the judge of Duzhi, proposed in the court today that tomorrow all court officials, imperial orders, and concubines with titles should go to the river embankment to fetch water to alleviate this year's drought."

Drought?well!I am also busy and confused, and I am also a full man who does not know a hungry man.

After Jing Taoniang said this, Zhao Xi finally realized that it seemed that there had been no rain for a long time.Zhao Xi hurriedly asked Wang Zhongzheng to go to the guard camp again, and the southward trip was put on hold. Alleviating the drought should be the most important thing for the court, and he couldn't hide out.

Carrying water for irrigation?This Wang Anshi can really play!Shouldn't it be praying for rain?

During this period of time, Zhao Xi had also seen an excerpt asking the royal family to pray for rain. He thought it was an annual ritual, so he didn't care.

Now that I think about it, the sky has been dry for a long time.It's the farming season, so the drought may affect this year's harvest.

I should have neglected it.The question is, does Wang Jiefu's method work?

Compared to praying for rain, it seems to be useful.

He, Wang Anshi, really obeyed the sage, and his words were strange and chaotic.

Chapter 210 The drum car is feasible (third change)

Bianliang City woke up very early today.

The women of each family regarded Wang Jiefu's request to carry water for irrigation as an outing.It was so hot, not much different from Yuan Xiri's carnival.

The women in the East Palace were busy all night, but in the end it was really useless.What they want to wear is not up to them at all.

Early in the morning, someone from the Ministry of Rituals came. It was very simple. Even if it was to carry water for irrigation, the royal family still had to have etiquette, such as coarse clothes, when to leave the city, how to walk, and the order of carrying water. program of.

Su Shi felt very disappointed, but she didn't dare to shake face in front of the officials of the Ministry of Rites.As for Tao Niang and Duan Shi, they are all clear.

At this time, the Yellow River embankment is very lively... There must be thousands of people here, right?Anyway, Zhao Xi took a look, and there must be more soldiers than his guard battalion.

All the court officials in Bianliang, wives and concubines with names, plus the servants and attendants of each family, as well as the officials who are busy allocating areas... Wang Jiefu, I really have you.

This is not counting the soldiers in charge of guarding the periphery.

They are all gentlemen who don't work hard, and asking them to carry water for irrigation is purely for fun, to play with things, and to play with people.

The Yellow River embankment in Bianliang is not bad. After all, it is related to the lives of nearly a million people in the capital. Those who are responsible for this matter, as long as they are not crazy, will not play tricks on this matter.

It is also the qualification of the embankment that makes the simple task of carrying water difficult.

The country's dynasty is based on agriculture, even if it is the empress, she will reclaim a piece of land in the inner garden, saying that she will not forget the crops.

So carrying water is a must.

But this is a levee, and it is still a relatively qualified levee.

It is Manpo, the whole Manpo is bare, but there are no steps for so many people to use.

Carrying two buckets of water and walking on such a slope...Wang Jiefu must be playing tricks, right?

Seeing these Yingyingyanyans, chattering, and stumbling orders, Zhao Xi was really worried for the ancestors of the old Wang family.This is just the beginning, and it is estimated that it has been cursed thousands of times.

Wang Anshi set an example, the bucket was not small, and Wang Anshi carried it quite steadily. It can't be said that he walked like flying, but among these ministers, he had a solid foundation.

Zhao Xi couldn't remember the last time he carried water.Even in his previous life, he did this job when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.

It seems that people can't forget the skills of movement. As soon as Zhao Xi touches it, he knows that he can do it, and he will still carry water with skill.

It's just that the parents and his wife are in a bit of a mess, the bucket is a small bucket, and Zhao Xi looks like a toy for children in later generations.Even so, Zhao Xi had already made two trips, and they had just reached the top of the dam...the descent was even more difficult.

"Father, mother, let the child come!"

There shouldn't be anything said about being filial, right?Especially regardless of the mother who has just given birth in the family, first care about the behavior of the parents, it should be praised by Shilin, right?

Indeed, the person next to his parents was the husband, and Zhao Xi was immediately surrounded by approving eyes.

"Xi'er, parents need to do it."

Don't say whether you are tired or not, and don't say how much you pick.Such a drought in the sky seems to be a warning to the emperor's gains and losses, so Zhao Zhen needs to do it.

It's nonsense, the problem is that people in this era believe in this... It may also be a wording that can spur the emperor.

"You can use a bobbin cart!"

what the hell!Zhao Xi was instantly embarrassed.Can he think of it?Just don't say it.

But the Su family doesn't care about this.I thought it was a fun thing.

After all, she is also the eldest lady, and her grandfather has already been an official, so she has done a good job.

I wanted to play, but in the end, I picked up such a little water from the river to the top of the dam, and my whole shoulder couldn't bear it. Not to mention the pain in my feet, my calves were trembling.

I just can't figure it out, why didn't the imperial court use a bobbin cart?No one has to suffer this!

She is from the south, and there are many drum cars in her hometown.

But my aunt, Wang Jiefu is also from the south!People are not smarter than you?you know?

When Zhao Xi met such a wife, he was convinced.

Su's words immediately made the scene a little quiet.

"Concubine Su, what is a bobbin cart?"

Fu Bi's family is also the eldest daughter of Yan Shu, the former governor.Originally a southerner, he just followed his mother to serve his grandmother and grew up in Luoyang and Bianliang.I really don't know what a bobbin is.

Zhao Xi looked at Fu Bi... This is something that women talk about, and it doesn't touch men.

Wang Jiefu can't care about women, can he?

Su Shi is very happy to perform on this occasion.He still knew the rules, first he looked at the empress, then at Tao Niang, and after obtaining consent, he began to behave.

Su Shi is a smart person, and his meticulous painting is not bad.
