Without anyone's suggestion, Brother Xuan realized something by himself, and there was a vague conjecture in his heart.

He no longer went out, and stayed by his grandfather's side every day, reading books and newspapers for his grandfather, and telling interesting things outside.

Liu Zhao took the opportunity to remind him, If you meet someone who is virtuous, you can get around as soon as possible. As you grow up every year, you must learn to form your own team.

Thank you grandfather for the suggestion!

Liu Zhao said again: You don't have to worry about your father's place. I will make it clear to him.

The grandfather doesn't have to ask the emperor to treat me with special consideration for me. The grandson can also get the emperor's attention by his ability.

Good boy, you really have ambition. Don't worry, your royal father is a very principled person. If you are incompetent, even if I come forward, your royal father will not deliberately reuse you.

Brother Xuan said confidently: I will let the emperor and the courtiers admire the grandson.

Liu Zhao was very happy.

In private, he whispered to Gu Jiu, Brother Xuan is such an ambitious child, we should help him more.

He is so young and needs more experience. It's not good for him if we intervene too early. He has to go through the process that he has to go through, hit the southern wall a few times, suffer a little setback, and live in the big dye vat of the Chaotang. Only by working hard can you truly grow up.”

I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until then.

Gu Jiu was silent for a moment before saying, I will watch him for you.

Liu Zhao said solemnly: You must take good care of Brother Xuan for me, I can't bear to suffer a little setback for him. But I also know that it's not a good thing for life to be too smooth. Only when you suffer a little setback can you temper your character. You have to keep an eye on the boss, no Allow him to treat Brother Xuan harshly.

You have spread your words to several children, and they should complain that you are biased. If you have grandchildren, you will have no son.

Liu Zhao was triumphant, How can they compare with Brother Xuan.

Gu Jiu rolled his eyes at him.

...

After the Chinese New Year, when the snow and ice melted and the river was navigable, Gu Jiu and Liu Zhao set off for Beijing.

According to Liu Zhao's wish, the couple lived in Chang'an Palace.

Impatient to be disturbed, Gu Jiu excused the empress and the grandsons from greeting her.

Brother Xuan officially entered Shanhe Academy to study,

At the same time began to contact some political affairs.

Occasionally, when Liu Zhao missed Brother Xuan, Gu Jiu arranged for someone to bring Brother Xuan to Chang'an Palace for a light meal.

Liu Yu, Emperor Qianming, often went to Chang'an Palace for a meal.

The chef of Chang'an Palace has followed the Empress Dowager Taishang to travel south and north over the years, and his craftsmanship has been refined.

Food from all over the world can be made, and new tricks can be made.

It is more than a little bit better than the cooking skills of the imperial kitchen.

Emperor Qianming Liu Yu fell in love with the food in Chang'an Palace, and also wanted to do filial piety to his parents, so he often came over under the pretext of eating rice.

Several times, Brother Xuan met his Lao Tzu Gan Ming Emperor in Chang'an Palace, and he would inevitably be taught a lesson.

Liu Zhao was very dissatisfied.

Gu Jiu laughed at him, You are the same as before. Every time you see the children, you always find an excuse to teach them a lesson. You just refuse to talk properly.

Nonsense, I am a reasonable person.

Talk shit.

Gu Jiu repeatedly scolded him, and revealed all the old things.

Liu Zhao was scolded for a while, so he began to reflect.

I was really such a jerk back then?

You're not doing well now. The boss came over yesterday, and you scolded him.

right!

Yesterday, Liu Yu went to Chang'an Palace for a meal. Liu Zhao saw that he was upset and scolded him.

Liu Yu rolled his eyes secretly, he had long been used to it and was completely invulnerable.

Thinking of what he had done, Liu Zhao smiled awkwardly.

Then he said: The emperor is like me, as expected of the child I taught and grew up.

You can really put gold in your face.

Gu Jiu rolled his eyes at him directly.

As the weather warmed up, the Supreme Emperor Liu Zhao's body seemed to be getting better, and Emperor Qianming Liu Yu was quite happy, and he was rarely pleasant in the early days.

However, Gu Jiu knew that Liu Zhao's body was only at the end of the line, and time was short.

She silently explained that the Shaofu was preparing for the funeral, so as not to be in a hurry at that time.

At the same time pay attention to the movement of the Institute of Technology.

She hoped that Liu Zhao could take a look at what the steam engine looked like before he left.

Qianming seven years in September.

Gu Jiu took Liu Zhao and rode a double-track carriage into the mountain.

There is an extra rail in the mountain pass near the racecourse.

Liu Zhao was curious, You brought me here, what are you looking at?

Gu Jiu smiled mysteriously, You will know soon.

Sure enough!

A large lump of iron stood at the end of the track, behind the lump was a coal-burning stove, and behind it were several carriages.

Liu Zhao was stunned, Is this the steam engine you said?

Yes! This is the steam engine, the first prototype. We will be the first people to experience the steam engine in this era.

Such a big iron lump can really pull the carriage?

Pulled by burning coal.

Then I really want to experience it, there shouldn't be any danger, right?

A railroad track less than ten miles long is not dangerous in any way.

The chambermaid supported Liu Zhao and got into the carriage.

The cabin is spacious and luxurious.

Through the window, you can clearly see the scenery outside.

A piercing howl!

Liu Zhao grabbed Gu Jiu's hand.

Gu Jiu held him back, It's activated.

shopping, shopping, eating...

The carriage moved forward slowly, making a rhythmic sound.

Liu Zhao was dying of curiosity and couldn't help but stick out his head, Is there really no horses pulling the carriage ahead?

of course not.

The smoke as big as the chimney is really burning coal?

How can this be false?

Liu Zhao is like a curious baby, with a hundred thousand whys hidden in his heart.

King Lu, Liu Hao, accompanied his parents, answering questions one after another.

The ten-mile-long railroad track soon came to an end.

Emperor Qianming Liu Yu took Brother Xuan and waited outside the carriage.

Brother Xuan personally helped Liu Zhao out of the carriage.

Liu Zhao looked around, but he didn't find any horses.

I didn't expect you to come up with a steam engine, it's amazing!

It took countless manpower and material resources, and finally got results. At this moment, Gu Jiu felt a little distressed about the large sum of money invested.

Fortunately, after investing countless money, it finally paid off.

Back at the palace, Liu Zhao kept chatting with Liu Yu and Brother Xuan, Steam engines are a good thing! With steam engines and railroad tracks, we can go all over the world. Material delivery, population transportation, and time will be greatly shortened. Things need to develop, regardless of cost.”

Liu Yu nodded in response.

Brother Xuan said: With steam engines, not only rail transportation but also shipping can be developed. Mr. Ren said that steam engines can also be used on ships to burn coal to drive ships forward. In this way, ships are not afraid of the weather and wind direction. You can go out to sea in any season.”

Sure enough, it's a good thing. The queen mother spends millions of dollars every year, and spends more than ten years of work. It's amazing to have today's achievements!

Perhaps it was stimulated by the steam engine, and Liu Zhao was so excited that he slept well in the middle of the night.

The next morning, he got up early and pulled Gu Jiu to demarcate the railway line.

With the capital as the center, a small red line starts from the capital and extends to the south and the north.

In the end, he solemnly handed over the railway planning line to Liu Yu, Emperor Qianming.

It seems that the last wish has been fulfilled.

One night in early October, Liu Zhao passed away in his sleep, leaving with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

He walked for less than a quarter of an hour when Gu Jiu suddenly woke up from his sleep, panicked!

Before she knew it, tears had already wet her shirt.

This day has finally come.

She stayed by Liu Zhao's side until the sky was numb, when she announced the death of the Emperor Taishang.

In the blink of an eye, the palace was crying loudly.

Emperor Qianming, Liu Yu, announced with red eyes that he would quit the dynasty for seven days.

Gu Jiu was in a trance for a few days before he recovered from the grief of Liu Zhao's death.

She didn't attend the funeral, she was afraid to see that picture.

Unexpectedly, there are things in this world that make her afraid.

She invited a painter to paint Liu Zhao's appearance according to her own memory.

She went to the palace to give him his last ride.

Standing in front of the imperial mausoleum, she sighed.

Liu Yi, the king of Duanjun, came to her side, Brother Huang is gone, condolences to the empress dowager!

We're all getting old!

Gu Jiu left the tomb, but Liu Yi stayed in front of the tomb for a long time and refused to leave.

After returning to Beijing from the imperial mausoleum, Liu Yiyi could not afford to be ill, and the medicine stone was ineffective.

Less than two months after Liu Zhao's death, Liu Yi, a brother of a mother's compatriot, followed in his footsteps and died.

One winter, the Taishanghuang died first, and then a county king died. This winter is not very peaceful.

Gu Jiu, the honor of the Queen, lived in Xiaozhu and rarely went down the mountain.

She likes to go to Shanhe Academy to feel the youthful atmosphere.

Occasionally call the children to Xiaozhu for dinner.

Emperor Qianming Liu Yu, whenever he is free, he always goes to Xiaozhu to greet him.

The King of Lu, Liu Ya, also often went to Xiaozhu to eat and drink.

Without Liu Zhao, Gu Jiu's life was lively, but also lonely.

...

At the beginning of the new year, the imperial court officially aimed to set up vassal states overseas.

The King of Rong Liu Heng was transformed into a vassal king.

Princess Ruyang also changed her body and became the first female vassal king in history.

The two newly-appointed feudal lords entered Beijing last year, and until this year, the grand event of opening a feudal state has finally been accomplished.

This also set a precedent for the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As long as the clan has the ability to go overseas to be the king, they will have the opportunity to be awarded the title of prince.

King Rong Liu Heng, Princess Ruyang Liu Xiang, brother and sister went to Xiaozhu to resign.

They are about to leave Beijing and go overseas to run their own vassal states.

The next time I go back to Beijing, I don’t know what year and month.

Princess Ruyang was crying beside Gu Jiu, and she was reluctant to give up.

Gu Jiu stroked her head lightly, Back then, when you shouted that you were going to sea, Ben Gong knew that he couldn't keep you. The princess mansion built for you will never wait for his master.

Ru Yang sobbed, Daughter feels very uncomfortable, I can't tell whether I regret or not.

Gu Jiu reassured her: You have your own business, and you have a vassal state, so you can justifiably set up a small court to manage a site. In the past dynasties, the princes and grandsons have been waiting for the opportunity that the princes and grandsons can't wait for. You have it, and you must cherish it. , good business!

Ruyang nodded heavily, Will the mother still go overseas?

Gu Jiu shook his head, Bengong can't walk anymore. Your father is not here, and I have no interest in going out. If you are interested, come back and visit Bengong in three or five years.

Ru Yang nodded heavily, feeling very uncomfortable.

Gu Jiu said again, Take advantage of the opportunity that your brothers and sisters are by your side, there are some things in this palace that should be arranged.

Mother...

Gu Jiu waved his hand.

They sent people to call Emperor Qianming Liu Yu and Lu Wang Liu Hao.

The family had a family dinner.

After the family banquet, Gu Jiu said solemnly, The property under the name of this palace will not be split, nor will it be distributed to anyone.

The brothers and sisters looked at each other and waited quietly.

This palace has established a royal foundation, similar to the model of the disabled veterans' foundation. All descendants of this palace will receive a fund from the foundation every year. How to use this fund is up to you. Arrangement. The funds of the foundation come from the properties under the name of this palace, and a certain percentage of the profits will be injected into the foundation every year. You four brothers and sisters will each own 5% to 10% of the shares of the foundation. The specific rules and regulations are written in it, you can see for yourself.

A thick copy of the rules and regulations of the Royal Foundation was distributed to everyone.

Before waiting for the children to ask questions, Gu Jiu continued: The foundation will manage all the properties under the name of this palace in a unified way. There are several sub-projects under the Royal Family Foundation. Among them, the Education Foundation will continue to invest in major academies, invest in new schools, etc. Set up academies and discover talents. The Natural Science Foundation mainly invests in all projects of the medical school and the polytechnic. The specific operation is written in the regulations.

The four brothers and sisters have the most shares in the Royal Foundation, which together will have the right to decide. The shares given to you are also undivided and can only be handed over to your children or descendants to inherit, and foreign relatives are not allowed to meddle in the shares in your hands. If you hand over the shares of the foundation to anyone other than your descendants, you will be disqualified from the foundation and your shares will be recovered. This rule will continue. In addition, respecting your father's opinion, this palace will take an additional 5% of the shares and leave it to Brother Xuan. Have an opinion?

The four brothers and sisters shook their heads in unison.

Everyone knows that His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson, was raised by the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

The eldest grandson of the emperor received an additional share of the foundation, which was quite a matter of course.

Gu Jiu said: It's fine if you don't have any opinions! Even if there are opinions, Ben Gong will ignore them. Ben Gong will set up a team to manage the foundation and find talents for the foundation. Cooperation. In addition, according to your father's wishes, the young mansion will also establish a clan foundation. In the future, members of the clan will receive the money and food they need for living from the clan foundation. The specific amount, operation method, and other arrangements.

Mother...

Gu Jiu raised her hand to stop it, Listen to Ben Gong. Each of you can recommend three people to work in the Foundation's management team, and the Audit Department is responsible for auditing the Foundation's accounts. Even if people from the Foundation leave, they cannot work in the Audit Department. Similarly, people who have worked in the Audit Department cannot work for the Foundation. This is an iron rule, and no one can change this rule.

There is another rule, please keep in mind that relatives within the three clans are not allowed to work in the foundation and the audit department at the same time. Anyone who enters the Foundation and the Audit Department will be checked up for three generations and down for two generations. So think carefully before you decide to recommend someone to work at the Foundation.

This palace knows that there are many loopholes that can be exploited, so this palace has also set up many rules and regulations to block these loopholes. Within 100 years, whoever dares to change the rules set by this palace will be removed from the foundation and will not be able to get a penny from the foundation from now on. The Foundation manual in your hand will answer all your questions for you. Please read it carefully and keep the key points in mind.

The four brothers and sisters all had an ominous premonition, always feeling that the mother and queen were explaining the future.

They were worried.

Gu Jiu smiled, Bengong Xijing! In the future, except for Brother Xuan, without the permission of this palace, don't disturb this palace to rest in Xiaozhu.

The mother lives here, and there is no one to talk to to relieve boredom. Will it be too deserted. Or let the children go to Xiaozhu to do their homework after school. It's just to add a little popularity to Xiaozhu.

Need not!

Gu Jiu decisively refused.

After explaining everything, Gu Jiu sent his four children away.

She lives alone in Xiaozhu and is recuperating, with palace servants waiting around her. Brother Xuan runs to Xiaozhu as soon as she is free.

Gu Jiu likes to read, wearing a pair of glasses, even the smallest words can be read clearly.

The glass factory managed by Rongxin finally fiddled with glasses, solved the big problems of countless old masters and nerds, and won the favor of scholars.

Savior!

Huang Qubing brought the first volume of Biography of Celebrities, which has been published for a long time until recently.

Gu Jiu opened the Biography of Celebrities, the first person without any suspense was the deceased Emperor Xingzong Jingming Liu Zhao.

Luhou Pei Ren, Anxi King Pei Meng, Mr. Dou, Li Bingming, Chen Zhuangshi, Yang Ji, Gu Shu, Master Wuwang, Qian Fu Qian Gong Gong...

Familiar names appeared on the paper.

They all have the merits of pioneering and expanding the land, and they have all made great contributions to the great Zhou Jiangshan.

History books will not forget them, and neither should the people.

Their credits are all written in this Celebrity Biography.

Old and strong, rich and rich, father-in-law, crying like a three-year-old child.

After crying, he touched his tears and said he was going to guard the imperial mausoleum.

Gu Jiu scolded him, Bengong is not dead yet, what kind of imperial mausoleum are you guarding. When Bengong is dead, you will say that again.

My lady is a hundred years old...

It's all bullshit! No one can live a hundred years.

Qian Fu felt wronged, Old slave, I am just too excited. I didn't expect that I would have a place in Celebrity Biography...

Before he could finish speaking, Qian Fu burst into tears again, weeping and weeping.

Gu Jiu sent him, You wait for the envy, jealousy and hatred of others.

Even if people in the world point at the nose and scold me, saying that this old slave is not worthy of being listed in this Celebrity Biography, this old slave will be worth it in this life.

Qian Fu's life is complete.

Gu Jiu felt that there was something missing in her life.

After thinking about it, she finally remembered that she had never done a needlework for Liu Zhao for all these years.

Bengong's needlework is a bit unsightly, and I don't know if he will dislike it.

It's too late for the first emperor to be happy, so how can he dislike it.

For the first time, Gu Jiu took the initiative to pick up the needle and thread and made a set of shoes and socks for Liu Zhao.

Needlework is really bad.

After nearly a year of needlework, Gu Jiu felt that her life was complete and she had no regrets.

One day she called Emperor Qianming Liu Yu to her.

She solemnly explained: This is the needlework that this palace does for your father, remember to put it in the underground palace. Although the needlework is not very good, your father does not dare to dislike it. After this palace leaves, remember to seal the underground palace. Neither this palace nor your royal father likes to be disturbed.

Brother Xuan is very good. Your father should have told you that you can consider making Brother Xuan the crown prince. This is also the meaning of this palace, you refer to it. In addition, the family background of the woman is very important, and the character is also very important for the children to find marriage. The most important thing is that the children have to be willing.

As in the past, the attitude of this palace and your royal father on your marriage has always been to respect your opinions and not to blindly marry dumbly. You have to set a rule for your descendants. You can't have a maid to give birth to a child, an illegitimate child, or a prostitute to give birth to a child as the prince. Inside the royal family, the bloody battle for succession will also be restarted.

I remember my mother's instructions! I will set rules. The descendants who dare to appoint a maid to give birth to a child, an illegitimate child, or a prostitute to give birth to a child will be removed from their names.

That's very good! The same should be true within the clan! This official has watched the clan's ups and downs for decades, so many disputes and contradictions, most of which are caused by the improper conduct of the family, the birth of children by the servants in the family, and the illegitimate children's strong seizure of production. There are many such things, The atmosphere inside the clan has turned bad. It's really hateful. Not everyone can enjoy the support of the clan fund.

Gu Jiu raised the issue of the education of the prince and grandson again.

After the children are enlightened, they should go to the academy to study and be with their peers. If they are older, they should go to the military to train and strengthen their physique. When you are an emperor, you should also pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and don't work too hard. Medical school And the Institute of Technology, which embodies Ben Gong's many years of hard work, we must support them...

Gu Jiu talked for a long time and said a lot.

Emperor Qianming Liu Yu remembered them one by one, but his heart sank a little.

He didn't dare to think deeply, but he had to think deeply.

When your father was around, Ben Gong annoyed him. When he was gone, Ben Gong missed him again.

Gu Jiu laughed at himself.

In the fall of next year, she suddenly decided to return to the palace and lived in Chang'an Palace.

On the fifth day of October, Liu Zhao died.

On the same night, the Empress Dowager passed away.

Five years apart, the first emperor and the queen mother died on the same day, almost at the same time, which shocked everyone.

On the 14th day of Emperor Qianming's reign, Liu Yuchuu fell ill.

The empress dowager was buried in the underground palace of the imperial mausoleum, accompanied by Emperor Xingzong Jingming Liu Zhao.

Following the decree of the Empress Dowager, Emperor Qianming Liu Yu personally supervised and sealed the underground palace.

Since then, the husband and wife have been together in life and death, leaving one legend after another.
