Days are everlasting

Chapter 159 Talent

In August of the first year of Baoqing, Prime Minister Shi Miyuan was ill, and the emperor personally sent an imperial doctor to visit him. However, Shi Xiang's condition became more and more serious, and the emperor visited him several times a day.

On August [-]th, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the people in Xiangfu were all sad.

Xianggong's illness is getting worse and worse. Although the government attaches great importance to it, the honor of the Shifu comes from him. If Xianggong goes...they can't imagine it!

There was a banquet in the palace today, but after the banquet was over, the officials hurriedly brought people to the prime minister's mansion.

Shi Miyuan was lying in his bedroom. The Song Dynasty had always practiced the system of high salaries and honesty. The life of senior officials was very good, and it could even be said to be extravagant. However, this was a national welfare. , not counting the gardens, the Song Dynasty Palace can be said to be shabby.

"Master, get well soon! Since the Queen Mother no longer hangs the curtains, I rely on him for everything!" On the side of Shi Miyuan's bed, the emperor Zhao Yun in casual clothes said sincerely.

"Officials don't need to be humble, veterans are just temporarily helping, and officials have their own hills and valleys in their hearts." Although he said this, Shi Miyuan obviously listened to what Zhao Yun said before, knowing that he was thinking about himself, and he also felt in his heart. Naturally want to get better soon.

Back then, when the Song Dynasty was still in the old capital, Emperor Renzong wanted to be in charge of the government, but was he scared off by the many trivial matters written in obscure language deliberately presented by the ministers below?

The ministers below did not want the emperor to take power in advance, deliberately reported trivial matters, and deliberately chewed on words, all of which could be used.

Renzong was born as an orthodox heir who received the education of the emperor since he was a child. He was scared away by this method. Shi Miyuan has seen and written opinions on memorials that say "Yes" or "Allow", how many means of governing the country can he have?

Today's officials still have to learn!

Shi Miyuan had no doubts about the sincerity in Zhao Yun's words of wishing him a quick recovery.

"These days when my husband has been ill, I feel quite restrained in the palace. The few people my husband recommended to me are not as capable as my husband. It is inconvenient for me to go out of the palace, so they have to come to the palace frequently when they have something to do. As time goes by, I don't know if my husband has something to tell me?" Zhao Yun said again.

The people he mentioned that Shi Miyuan recommended to him are actually the confidantes of Shi Miyuan who had been "famous" as early as Ningzong's reign. These people have a bad reputation among the people, and they have a collective title called "Four woods and three evils".

Shi Miyuan has been alone for more than ten years. It can be seen that his desire to control power is very strong. Although Simu Sanjiu relied on Afu to get a high position, but if he wants to rise a little higher and compete with Shi Miyuan, that's really true. It is impossible.

Although Shi Miyuan was ill, he was unwilling to let go of his control over the government. Naturally, these party members often came to his house to discuss countermeasures. It's the same thing.

Shi Miyuan also heard from his subordinates that today's government is not up to the task, and one has to read the opinions of several people before making a decision. Fortunately, they all came to him to discuss countermeasures, and the government has not yet escaped his control.

It's just that they all said that the officials were indecisive. Now, from what I can see, it is the officials who want to know their thoughts from them, but these people hide their selfishness when they say it, so some things are not allowed until the officials come to the house At that time, I personally talked to him before it was done?

Thinking of this, I heard another matter from the official: "The real minister has repeatedly spoken rudely, but after all he is a master of Neo-Confucianism and has always been respected. Li Yushi and Liang Sibo have been holding on to it, but it has passed. I have always heard that Xianggong respects Neo-Confucianism, true servants, etc., and was recruited by Xianggong several times back then. In view of this situation, I think it is enough to find a name and allow them to resign. Xianggong thinks how?"

Although Shi Miyuan has always been troubled by the Confucianism masters in the imperial court, such as Zhen Dexiu and Wei Liaoweng, who have always shirked him through official appointments and persisted in the incident of King Ji Zhao Hong, but originally He invited these people not because the two sides were on the right track, but because he needed the reputation of Neo Confucianism to cover himself.

When the officials had been protecting these people, he was still dissatisfied. He felt that although the officials were influenced by him and had a good impression of Neo Confucianism, they could not protect these old men too much. Li Zhixiao and Liang Chengda under his command He frequently impeached some people who refused to be attached, but these people were lucky, and the officials have been protecting them. Shi Miyuan was also at the top of his horns, but today Zhao Yun talked to him, and he knew the meaning!

The officials are still thinking about his reputation!

Today's officials have been on the throne for less than a year now, and Shi Miyuan single-handedly supported him to the throne. Just look at the few things he is unwilling to fulfill Shi Miyuan's wish now, and it is for Shi Miyuan's good.

As a result, Shi Miyuan naturally remembered Zhao Yun's previous words in his heart, and he also had doubts about the few people who belonged to him.

Don't think that no one will betray him when he is in power. Wang Jinggong Wang Anshi of the Shenzong Dynasty, and the new party later were all under his gang. Did those people care about the face of their colleagues? , stumbling each other?

People, after all, you can't think too much about reality.

Shi Miyuan only felt that because he was sick, the people under him began to feel restless, thinking that when he recovered from his illness, he would promote some people to restrain them and suppress their arrogance, but what he didn't know was that his body It will never be possible to be as healthy as before.

When Zhao Yun left Shi Miyuan's room, in the corner of the room, there was still a rare mirror that he had specially given to Shi Miyuan, which could reflect objects and people's faces clearly.

The mirrors were mercury mirrors, and there were only three sets in the entire imperial palace, one set was at Shi Miyuan's place, and the other two sets were at Empress Dowager Yang's and King Ji's Zhao Mian's. Even the Son of Heaven himself used bronze mirrors that were not very clear.

Mercury is poisonous, and of course the mercury mirror is specially made, and it needs to be protected after being painted on the back of the mirror, but Zhao Yun, who is black and mercurial, will not be so pure.

Shi Miyuan's mirror was presented as a gift shortly after he ascended the throne, and Shi Xiang, who has always been in good health, will become seriously ill at this time because of chronic mercury poisoning. You have to put a question mark, you know, with his physical condition, if he gets a stroke accidentally, he has to bid farewell to the aspect.

After Zhao Yun visited Shi Miyuan, probably due to psychological effects, soon after, Shi Xiang was able to go to court as usual.

Just when Neo Confucianists criticized Shi Miyuan, Zhao Yun proposed an idea to Shi Miyuan—hoping that Da Song could get some good horse breeds from Da Jin.

Shi Miyuan, who has always been a peacemaker, was deeply shocked by the idea put forward by the emperor. The breed of a good horse is easily reminiscent of military affairs, which means war, and his consistent idea of ​​negotiating peace with the Jin people I want to violate it.

Zhao Yun is at the stage of keeping a low profile, so how can Shi Miyuan think that he wants to support the main fighters and is out of control?

The good horses that Zhao Yun hopes to get are not many, at most a hundred. For the whole Song Dynasty, it is simply a drop in the bucket. Coupled with the possible disease and death on the way, there are not many good horses that can really reach the Song Dynasty. many.

What's more, he dared to speak up to Shi Miyuan, the firm and the largest peace faction in the Great Song Dynasty, which was enough to prove to Shi Miyuan that he "has no shame in his heart"-although no matter whether it was the pro-government queen in history Lizong Zhao Yun for a while, and now Zhao Yun, they are all main fighters.

There are only a few good horses, but there are actually many uses. When the Song Dynasty was still in Bianliang, the old Beijing, it did not have less exchanges with the Liao Kingdom. It can be said that when the relationship between the two countries is in the honeymoon period, the exchanges between the two countries are related to many "lifelines", including horse breeds.

In other words, the rich and powerful have some excellent horses, but not many people are willing to contribute.

Under the auspices of Shi Miyuan, Da Song increased the old coins to the Kingdom of Jin. Just after the new ruler of the Kingdom of Jin ascended the throne, his attitude towards Song eased. Zhao Yun felt that after the exchange of old coins, let Jin Guo give some to Song A good enough horse breed is not a big deal.

What's more, his goal is not Jin Guo.

Mongolia is the target of his attention.

Moreover, when Mongolia finally attacked Song Dynasty, Song people had already invented bamboo fire system, and they were definitely leading in black technology.

With the innate skills that can read the historical process related to the original body and expanded to the entire parallel world, in addition, whether it is the fire system of the Song people or the artillery of the Ming people, it is a product that the ancients who have not climbed the technology tree can complete as soon as possible. Zhao Yun is very confident about the future.

As for why a horse breed is needed, it is because, if he wants to fight back, the cavalry is of course more powerful than the infantry who are standing firmly. As for the time needed in the process, he is not in a hurry.

As an ethnicity of the Azure Dragon Clan in another world, in addition to reading the progress of the world to achieve almost "omniscient" innate skills, Zhao Yun's latest skill unlocked with the help of Song Longqi is for reproduction.

As an era of economic prosperity, although the military is quite criticized, both the economy and the population of the Song Dynasty have reached a historical high, and the population of the Song Dynasty can be called the highest in history.

And the unlucky direct royal family of the Song Dynasty has always had a lack of offspring, which also makes every emperor of the Song Dynasty have a wish for a prosperous offspring.

Coupled with Zhao Yun's heart, there is great hope for the reproduction of the Song Dynasty's population or the reproduction of horses, rice and other useful creatures. In the end, it led to the unlocking of his new skill-reproduction.

Zhao Yun: I am a man born with golden fingers!

The author has something to say: Zhao Yun cuts black.

Known skills:

1. Foreknowledge and familiarity with history

2. Reproduction

Basically, he can be regarded as Tom Su who knows everything about astronomy and geography [Hey! 】, also has a halo of abundant descendants. After the Southern Song Dynasty regained the old land and relocated the capital, he knew that the problem of descendants was related to the palace building, and he would definitely change it. Then he would not have to worry about the health of the descendants of the next generation.

It was so hard to write QAQ in the Song Dynasty. Seeing those historical materials made me feel very uncomfortable.
