There are precedents in the history of the Red Chamber

On the third day after Shi Zhongzhu returned to Beijing, he finally found an opportunity to go back to his Zhongjiahou Mansion to take a look. When he left, he left a few servants to look after the house, and entrusted the Zheng family to manage important matters. I don't know what is going on now.

Shi Zhongzhu was welcomed in and looked around. The house was clean and tidy and well maintained. The Zheng family also told him that the management was very strict, and there was absolutely no case of slaves occupying the master's house.After listening to the report of the left-behind servants, including the management of Wei Zhenniang's dowry, Shi Zhongzhu was very satisfied, and sent red envelopes of three months' money to all the left-behind servants, and the left-behind servants naturally thanked them happily.

The purpose of Shi Zhongzhu coming from the house is not only to inspect the house, but also to select a few capable and clever boys from among them. Yannian, Qubing, Pharmacist, and Nanshan are getting richer and more capable as they grow older. He is getting stronger and stronger, and it would be a waste to stay by his side any longer. Shi Zhongzhu plans to select about five backup candidates from the family's sons in the capital's house, and then select a few people from Guizhou's servants who are with him. The previous class of four.

When it's time to employ people, you will know the benefits of a big family. There are so many people!I took out the roster and looked at it, and I can check it back several generations. If it is the newly rich one, you can only buy it in the market. No sense of belonging.Alas, in the past twenty years of my life, my thinking has become more and more localized.

The selected boys followed Shi Zhongzhu back to the Bowling House under the joy of their family members. They will get used to being with their master from now on.

In the next few days, Shi Zhongzhu would go to the East Palace to discuss the details of the implementation with the prince. Fortunately, the prince's subordinates, Shi Zhongzhu had staff, and after the discussion, Shi Zhongzhu finally waited for the sage to summon him.

"Yaoyun is here, sit down." After Shi Zhongzhu saluted, the saint pointed to the embroidered pier that Dai Quan moved.Shi Zhongzhu thanked the saint, and thanked the eunuch Dai Quan in a low voice before taking his seat.

"I have given the crown prince full authority to handle the matter of reforming the land and returning it to the people. Yaoyun, you are capable, and I can rest assured that there is only one thing I want to tell you."

"Please ask the sage to order." Shi Zhongzhu immediately stood up, bowed and waited for orders.

"How many years will it take to complete this strategy?" The saint asked slowly.

The Shi family had asked this question before, and the crown prince had also asked this question. Now hearing the sage's question, Shi Zhongzhu obviously felt a powerful force coming towards him, and Shi Zhongzhu's forehead was instantly wet with sweat.Shi Zhongzhu withstood the pressure and said in a deep voice: "If there are no constraints and the implementation process goes smoothly, initial results can be seen in ten years, and great success can be achieved in fifty years."

It is no different from telling the prince what he said. The most important thing for a policy is to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As long as children are educated and instilled with ideas from an early age, they will think that what he does and accepts is correct.Nowadays, when people get married at a young age, about 18 years is a generation. When the barbarians are recovered, there will always be conflicts or wars. Some of the older people will die, and those who survive are those who accept the leadership of the court or accept their fate. In addition to the newborn child, Shi Zhongzhu and his family are telling the truth, and it will be done in 30 years.

But how can you tell the leader the same as you tell your family?Will the sage rest assured that the historian family is dominant?Don't you have political enemies to hold you back?Will there be any emergencies during the implementation process?These are difficult to predict, Shi Zhongzhu must leave time for these unpredictability, 50 years is the most appropriate.

"Fifty years?" said the saint to himself.

Shi Zhongzhu suddenly relaxed. It was the saint who withdrew his power. Shi Zhongzhu suddenly realized that no matter how much he misses the late emperor, no matter how much he looks down on the present, it is meaningless. The saint is already a saint. this location.This kind of behavior that you are obviously not as good as others, but why you look down on the strong in your heart is really stupid. You are a weak person, what right do you have to despise the strong.Shi Zhongzhu is now thankful that he did not show his emotions, the sage probably did not notice, otherwise he would not know how he died.If the sage knew that such a disarming power would make Shi Zhongzhu react, he didn't know whether it was joy or anger.

"Yes, 50 years is already the most ideal effect." Shi Zhongzhu said.

The sage pondered for a long time, and then said: "I was so happy to see the bamboo fence, and flew up to the Cuiqiong hairpin. Shi Zhongzhu, do you still remember the poems you wrote?"

As soon as the three characters "Shi Zhongzhu" came out, he didn't even call the characters started by the first emperor. Shi Zhongzhu knew that the saint was coming for real. He immediately got up, knelt down in front of the hall, bowed and promised, "Remember."

"The first emperor treated you like a nephew, I entrust you with a heavy responsibility, and even the crown prince, I also treat you with great favor, you can be happy with your heart, do you want to be on the Qiongzan?"

"Returning to the saint, the minister is the minister of the saint and the minister of Da Yue. In this life, he lives by relying on Da Yue, and his ambition in his whole life is just to fly on the Qiongzan."

"Remember what you said today!" the sage snapped, slowed down, and waved him back.

Shi Zhongzhu tensed his body, maintained his demeanor and retreated from the Hall of Mental Cultivation. When he reached the outside of the hall, his legs were so weak that he almost stepped on the steps.

Three days later, Shi Zhongzhu received the imperial decree, bestowing the right to Shangfang Baojian and Secret Zhezhuo. Guizhou Province has both government and military affairs, and 5.00% of the gold mine in Liping can be intercepted for Guizhou people's livelihood. The new gold and silver mines were handled in the same way. The eldest daughter was granted the title of County Monarch, the eldest son was awarded the title of Zhongjiahou Shizi, and Wei Zhenniang was granted the royal clothes and many rewards from the palace. All of them have rewards, which are known in history as "the kindness is very prosperous".

In the face of such a grand favor, the saint and the prince still have some considerations.

Back to three days ago, Shi Zhongzhu left the Hall of Mental Cultivation with soft legs. After Shi Zhongzhu left, a servant ran forward and whispered something to Dai Quan. Dai Quan and the saint replied in a low voice, and the saint laughed: "At this time Only then did I realize that he is still a young man, and he is not stable after all." The saint was very proud that he frightened him, and asked the prince who had just come out of the small door: "How? Is this matter left to Shi Yaoyun?"

"My son always thinks that Shi Yaoyun should be someone with a bright future. Why did he keep saying something in the officialdom: If there is no restraint, he is demanding power from his father!" The prince was so indignant. , just like the white jade you have liked for a long time, you are very careful when you touch it, for fear of getting dirty, but when you take a closer look, there are spots on the jade, which is extremely disappointing!

The sage did not intend to release the crown prince. The crown prince has not done anything in the local area. He does not know what the consequences will be if the power is not concentrated during the pioneering and chaotic period. If Shi Zhongzhu does not firmly grasp the power now, he will be plucked in the future It's small, but being pushed out as a scapegoat is a big deal.None of these sages would analyze it with the crown prince. He always felt that the crown prince admired Shi Zhongzhu too much, and this kind of appreciation had gone beyond the limit as a prince of a country.

"Officials all over the world are very much the same. Why get angry when things are expected. These are minor details. As long as Yao Yun can get things done, I'm willing to give up this bit of power. Since this matter is entrusted to you , what is your opinion?" asked the sage.

"Although Shi Yaoyun disappointed my minister, I still have some skills. I listen to my father." The prince said that he listened to his father, but he actually expressed his support for Shi Zhongzhu.

The sage nodded to express his understanding, and the prince reported other matters, and the sage pointed out one by one.After a busy day in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, leaving the crown prince for dinner, Dai Quan came up to ask for instructions: "Saint, which palace will you be lucky tonight?"

"Go to the queen." The saint pondered for a while, and found that he was really not interested in the beauties of the harem, and only wanted to have a good talk with the queen.

When we arrived at the queen's palace, the queen had loosened her hair and was about to go to bed. When she saw the saint coming, she didn't intend to redress. , and soon waved off the palace man.

"It's not the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. Why is the saint here?" The queen casually took a hair tie, slightly gathered her hair, and asked casually.

"Nothing, just come and have a look."

"I have something to look at. I have been looking at it for decades. The saint is fine, so let's visit those newly promoted concubines." Then, the queen laughed and said, "Don't worry, the saint, the newcomers are very timid, don't worry." Like Zhang Bin, she will do poisonous things."

The saint's face turned dark, and he was embarrassed to get angry, and said: "You can't talk well!"

When the sage uprooted the Zhang family, he never paid attention to Concubine Zhang who was in the palace. After all, she still had two sons and a daughter in the palace. Who would have thought that Concubine Zhang was so bold that she would be so reckless regardless of her children? If you act recklessly, you will drag the saint to be buried with you when you die.Thanks to the empress who arrived in time and brought the imperial physician, otherwise, the sage could be called the first emperor now.

I doted on a woman and hurt the queen's face, but in the end the queen saved him. No matter how unhappy the saint was, he felt ashamed to get angry.

"You, since you didn't want me to die at the beginning, why do you stab me everywhere now? It's easy to be misunderstood." The saint said in a soft voice. For those who stand side by side, concubines are nothing more than playthings.

"I think the sage misunderstood me, and I regret it now. If I had left Concubine Zhang at the beginning, now I am the empress dowager. I have nothing to worry about, so why bother to deal with you." The queen said such outrageous words indifferently. Come.

The saint was so angry that his face turned blue, and he remained silent.

"Well, later on, my son came to persuade me, and I figured it out. I couldn't do anything to watch you die. If I did, I'd be just like you. Amitabha, I'll be fine. If people don’t do it, why should they become beasts.” The queen became more and more impolite.

The saint couldn't bear it any longer, and was pointed at by his queen and scolded, his face was ugly, and he walked away.

The confidante was standing guard outside the door. Seeing the saint like this, she was so worried that she hurried into the hall, fearing that the queen would be angry and hurt too.Seeing the queen's lazy and complacent look, knowing that she is fine, she couldn't help but mutter: "My lady, why are you doing this!"

"I don't like him a long time ago, what am I afraid of!" The queen said confidently: "With his broken body, he will never be able to give birth to children. My son is righteous, and he is a certain saint in the future. It's just like that in my mother's house." Well, there are no capable people in the first place, and I don’t ask them to earn me any face. I am the wife who worshiped the ancestors of heaven and earth and kept filial piety for the late emperor. For a person who wants face like him, dare to abandon me? I have no desire Please, what can he do to me?"

"My good lady, after all, you are a saint. Don't fight against the saint all the time." The nanny persuaded earnestly. Since the crown prince was crowned and concubine Zhang had an accident, her master has become more and more presumptuous. The nanny is afraid that the saint will endure that day. If you can't go on, what will the master and prince do?

Seeing Mammy's anxious look, the Empress stopped teasing her and said, "Okay, Mammy, don't worry about it. Look at my attitude, does the sage mean to alienate me?"

"That's right, the sage is like this, the saints are more frequent than before." Mammy said in surprise.

"Men, they are all such low-spirited bones. I was able to save him in the case of Concubine Zhang, and I already gained his trust. At this time, I was rushing to be courteous, but it was a failure. I am so yin and yang, he If not, it will come here in a hurry. Okay, mother, don’t worry about these things in the future, I have my own discretion. You help me take care of the daughters of various ages, and it is serious to choose a few marriages for the prince. "
