Dress to be a celebrity

Not only brother Qi Wang Youai sent cattle and sheep from thousands of miles, Liu Xueshi, an outstanding graduate who was dispatched to Liangcheng, also sent a lot of cattle and sheep to the principals: some were born at the end of the year, and the meat was tender, and some A few fertile adult sheep, males and females are more than females, are all ungelded, which is convenient for breeding in Hanzhong.

The only mare that was sent for breeding was just pregnant, and it was inconvenient to drive back to Hanzhong all the way, so he only asked the herdsmen to buy some cattle and sheep, and did not send the horses to Fucheng.

He will be able to send the mare back with the foal next year.

Song Shi looked at the cattle and sheep, and read a letter he sent along with the cattle and sheep to report on the work of the group, and he felt somewhat similar to Zhou Wang: Zhou Wang felt that his younger brother had grown up and could Worrying about the division of the country; Song Shi lamented that the students did a good job outside, and gave the principal a halo of "surrendering the soldiers" and "surrendering the soldiers without fighting".

No wonder the ancient sages had to teach students, so they relied on students to give teachers a sense of presence!

Wasn't Zhu Xi's status very high in the Song Dynasty?Academically, he is only one of the four sons of the Northern Song Dynasty, and he was suppressed to death politically. It is not because of his disciples and readers to reverse the case behind him that he became a saint.He and Huan Ling have only been quietly farming and inventing in the small place of Hanzhong these years. With the efforts of outstanding graduates, they seem to have become military experts!

Raising students is worth more than raising sons, and we have to strengthen education in the future!

In addition... Shouldn't he also post the important speech delivered by King Qi in Liangcheng to the newspaper so that the people of Hanzhong can read it?

Forget it, keep a low profile.Just write that Liu, an outstanding graduate of Hanzhong School of Economics, took root in the border, served the court, and did a good job in the resettlement of the newly attached border residents... He was highly praised by His Royal Highness King Qi for his outstanding contributions, and Hanzhong School of Economics was also commended by His Highness King Qi for him And reward it.

But why did King Qi only credit him for the credit?

In fact, these technologies are all made by them—no one hears it anyway, let’s be honest—their husband and wife collaborated.Although the information obtained by King Qi may be a bit biased, Huan Ling's contribution was not included in the letter when he wrote the letter, but it doesn't matter, they just make up what should be made up when they do publicity.

Director Song personally drafted the main title and subtitle of the manuscript, wrote the outline, and let the editors fill in the rest. By the way, he asked them to arrange a special topic on scientifically raising cattle, sheep, horses and mules.

Take advantage of King Qi's wind, publicize scientific breeding, and attract more students to the Agricultural College of Hanzhong College, so that we can cultivate more usable talents in the future.

By the way, ask someone to write a biography for Xueshi Liu, and hang it on the honor column at the school gate together with other graduates who were wanted by officials from various places to show the academic ability and future of their school graduates.The cattle and sheep rewarded by His Royal Highness King Qi also found a red silk tie, and they were fostered in the breeding house of their school's Agricultural College.

Every three to five or seven days, when the weather is sunny and warm, these cattle and sheep praised by the king of Qi for "containing the captives" can be brought out for students and recruits who are willing to serve the country to visit.

King Zhou's Mansion is not a place for cattle and sheep, Master Song directly sent the cattle and sheep sent by the princes to Hanzhong College; while the students sent them to feed King Zhou, so it is not good to pull them under the eyes of everyone. When he came out to kill, he simply put it in the house where the post horses were kept.

It happened that a few mares at the post station were brought to the border to be bred, and these sheep were kept in the stable. Whenever the king of Zhou wanted to eat, he could bring one of them to eat.

He didn't send all the sheep away either, and asked the cook to kill a lamb on the spot, cut off the ribs, boil it in clean water, and make it into prairie-style hand-caught mutton.The fat and thin belly of the flower cake meat is chopped, served with shallots and diced white radish to make hand-picked rice, and then roasted cumin leg of lamb in an oil drum oven, steamed sheep's head and hoof in a pressure cooker, and boiled haggis soup... …

Although it was only a lamb weighing more than [-] kilograms, it also cooked a table of prairie-style dishes, which were sent to the Zhou Palace for lunch.The king of Zhou reciprocated the favor and asked someone to pick some neatly cut meat and send it to the concubine and the concubine. He also ordered the cook to add some new dishes, and invited Mr. Song to come to the house for dinner.

The family of their relatives finally ate the prairie fat mutton that Lu Shilang talked about, and it really tasted delicious, without any fishy smell.

Song's family used to lead a group in the Bashang Grassland, and the school has a Muslim cafeteria. They know how to cook grassland-style mutton.Even when eating meat, you must pay attention to the grassland style. When eating finger meat and sheep face, you have to take a small silver knife. Teach Huan Ling to spin the meat little by little. The lamb wine drunk in a big bowl has the pride of a prairie man.

The king of Zhou saw that the two of them were eating smartly, so he dismissed his servants and learned how to cut meat and pour wine. return……"

It's a pity that the emperor asked him to stay in Hanzhong, otherwise he could also go out to kill the enemy like his second brother, King Qi, and serve his father!

He doesn't drink very well, and he felt a little dizzy after drinking five or seven bowls. He held the wine bowl between his lips with a pair of oily hands: "How can I let my father let me go out to kill the enemy? ..."

His uncle sighed softly, took off the wine cup, and said: "Your Highness is drunk. The son of a daughter cannot sit still. Now that I, the Great Zheng, is attacking the captives with the power of glory, why do you need Your Highness to go to the dangerous place?"

King Qi is now able to run and fight on the grassland, it is because he has the ambition to serve the country and asked the Holy One for it.Moreover, he doesn't occupy the heir apparent, and doesn't have to shoulder the important responsibilities of the country, so he can naturally be more casual.But the King of Zhou could have inspected the military on the nine borders. At this time of turmoil, the Holy Majesty ordered him to be imprisoned in Hanzhong. Isn't it just to keep him away from the war and keep him safe?

Pity the parents of the world.

He also has a bit of an elder brother like a father towards King Zhou, and only persuading him to stay in the rear and provide food, food and grass for the army is the greatest contribution.

King Zhou was a quiet and introverted person, even though he was a little drunk, if he tried to persuade him twice, he became obedient and didn't say anything else.Song Shi was a supporter of quality education, and couldn't see how he disciplined children so severely. When Huan Ling had reasoned enough, he poured a cup of milk tea for King Zhou to sober up, and said:

"If your Highness wants to participate in the Northern Expedition, you don't have to go out. Next to our house is the Hanzhong Guards. Your Highness will buy more firearms and ordnance for the Hanzhong Guards, and urge all the soldiers to train and send the guards. Before the battle, wouldn't it be similar for His Highness to leave the customs in person?"

Even the king of Qi would definitely not go to battle, at most he would just watch him twice.

There is specialization in the art industry, and there is also a collective skill in logistics.As long as the king of Zhou can provide more food, grass, and ordnance to the army, so that the soldiers can kill the enemy powerfully, and have weapons at hand, it can be regarded as part of their own suicide if they are paid off.

King Zhou's eyes, which were soaked in lamb wine, blinked and became brighter: "Brother Song is right, if our Hanzhongwei can provide good soldiers to the front of the battle, it can be regarded as my king's training for the court." Already!"

Give them some gunpowder, silk, and iron cylinders. The local military guards are already famous for their "flying thunder cannons". The king has hit Luting together!

I think that when he first arrived in Hanzhong, he was still worried about the attack on the Nine Frontiers, the death of generals, and the displacement of the people. At this moment, the imperial army was able to go straight to the grassland to find the imperial court to fight.And the second younger brother, who was always a little frivolous in his memory, also became the general king, and he actually went into battle to kill the enemy and made great achievements in battle.

When they were young, because both of their mother's family were in charge of the military, the Wang family was a duke, but his mother's family was in charge of the military department, and the two surnames seized power, which made the princes not close enough.Although their brothers haven't seen each other for many years, their relationship is getting closer and closer because of fighting for the court. It's just that the second brother is a bit thin-skinned and refuses to admit it.

But he thanked him so sincerely in the letter, and also sent many grassland products in Hanzhong, could he misunderstand his brother's intention again?

The second brother spent a while in the army, and he really grew up a lot.

The king of Zhou was taught by Confucianism since he was a child, and he always regarded it as his responsibility to take care of the royal family, especially these biological younger brothers.In the past, his younger brother didn't get along with him, and they were all in the palace, so there was no use for him; now that the King of Qi showed his kindness to him again and again, as an elder brother, he should naturally show it.

But all their belongings as princes are bestowed by their father. If he wants to give King Qi any jewels and silks, I'm afraid that what King Qi has is better than what he gave, and it's no fun to give these things.

If it is about providing talents and armaments, he provided the logistics of the Western Expedition Army.How much food and grass can be used in the provinces where the nine borders are located, what kind of ordnance can be supplied, and how many soldiers can be recruited in a year are all in his mind.What he gave in the past was also done to the best of his ability, and he never hid his personal interests. If he had to send more children, money and food to the grasslands, he would definitely squeeze the officials and people everywhere and hurt the hearts and minds of the people.

Moreover, how much troops they have trained in Hanzhong to supplement the front line with the good Feilei Artillery Army is also the credit of the two brothers and the generals of the Hanzhong Army Town, and it cannot be counted as the contribution of his elder brother to his younger brother.

Well, what he can do himself is to send more letters to Beijing and tell his father and emperor what his second brother has spent and done for the people of the country.

For example, he borrowed talents from Hanzhong, built an economic park, etc., which were originally the tasks of the local governor, chief executive and other civil affairs officials, and they did not need to worry about them in the military.The king of Qi was able to take the initiative to do it, and he also saw that the economic team of the Song Sanyuan faction relied on building houses and industries to restrain the mind and body of the border residents, and ordered the army to cooperate. dealers.

King Qi has experienced in the army for the past six months, so he has a strategy and an understanding of the overall situation.

After Zhou Wang woke up, he was still thinking about the friendship that his younger brother gave him to the grassland little fat sheep, so he asked someone to grind ink and lay paper, and wrote a letter of greeting to his father.In the middle of writing, a new newspaper just arrived, and on the top of the front page was printed in walnut-sized characters the headline "Liu, a member of the Hanzhong government and an outstanding student of the Hanzhong School of Economics, supports the construction of the border."

The writers of this newspaper are all famous local writers, with beautiful writing and sincere feelings, which are more in place than his praise.

Zhou Wang flipped through several pages, and deeply felt the gratitude and dependence of the people on the border of Neibei to the Dazheng court, the intimacy and harmony between the local soldiers and herdsmen, and even more...

The articles written by these wits are better than his.

He intends to extract some good sentences, but after looking at them, he puts down his pen and directly pulls out the page of the newspaper.

These are the words from the heart of the people, and they are written about things that cannot be seen from the high temples. It would be a waste to just extract some beautiful poems and chapters to brighten the faces of their brothers.In fact, it should be sent to the palace so that the emperor can have a look at the progress of the second brother, and also look at what the northwest sergeants and common people have said about the court, the army's Northern Expedition, and Dazheng's life today.

By the way... look at the achievements he has made with the help of Huan Song's relatives in the Northwest during the past few years.

The king of Zhou finished writing the notebook in a low-key and modest manner, and attached a headline personally drafted by Mr. Song, and asked a famous pen to write the report, and sent someone to send it to the capital quickly.

Officials from all over the country can send out several copies of this invitation letter a year. The civil officials of the two capitals and thirteen provinces, the military officers of the sixteen capital divisions, and the five capital divisions can add up to tens of thousands of copies a year.Even if it is not the season when everyone pays respects collectively at the end of the month, the center will pass several greetings papers a day.

But King Zhou had a few newspapers in it, thick and perforated, and they were sandwiched in the courier shop, the Secretary of General Administration's many provincial folders, and it was the most perforated one.

In Song Dynasty, his father was working in the Department of General Administration, and he saw the thick booklet at a glance. He took it over and looked at it carefully. When he saw that it belonged to the King of Zhou, he put it on the top of the stack and handed it to the center.

Nowadays, besides those from the army, the most important ones for foreign officials are those of the King of Zhou.Naturally, the three elders also opened his envelope first, wanting to make an excerpt so that the Holy Majesty can save effort.

Unexpectedly, there were several folk newspapers sandwiched in this fold, which wrote about the resettlement of border residents in Liangcheng.The newspaper was compiled in Hanzhong, and the contributors were all local talents, famous experts, mountain men, scholars and so on. Naturally, the style of writing was not comparable to that of the famous scholars and newcomers of the gallery in Beijing. He is the disciple of the first assistant and the second assistant...

With this layer of aura added, the most plain text messages seem to be able to see the profundity of the ingenuity.

Zhang Cifu read the newspaper carefully, and handed over the job of transcribing King Zhou's excerpts to Shoufu. When he was satisfied with the reading, he put down the newspaper and said, "His Royal Highness King Zhou's excerpts come at just the right time. The army always only reports wars. His Royal Highness King Qi He is also a person who is not easy to publicize his achievements, from this letter, we can see that our Dazheng not only has the prestige of killing, but also has the virtue of becoming a king."

The captives who happened to be taken into the capital and the princes of the Lubu who came to surrender are still there, and I will also show them these, so that they can know how much better it is to surrender to Dazheng than to live under the rule of the princes of the Lubu.

There are also pictures on the front page, although they are simple thick-line lithographs, but the neatly arranged small buildings on it are dotted with cattle and sheep in between. Far people's bearing.

The king of Qi has the heart to appease the people, and the king of Zhou has managed the border so richly and cultivated talents, the two princes are really worthy of praise.

The third assistant Li Mian sighed: "It's not surprising that Hanzhong is like this, but if even the military town outside Liangcheng can be built like this, it's really amazing."

If these cattle, sheep, and factories are real, even this newly built small town can pay taxes!The small army town outside here can still be built into a good place for the herdsmen to live and work in peace and contentment, and the prosperity and prosperity in the pass can be seen from the beginning.

Fortunately, King Zhou went to the border. Otherwise, how could the court afford such a big battle that consumes money and food, and resettle the border residents so perfectly?

Mr. Li Ge sighed a few words in his heart, and suddenly thought-if he didn't go to the border, he was in the center, and used Song Shi to preside over an economic park like he did at the border, what would happen?Is it better than Wei Wang's economic park where everything is simulated?Didn’t the phosphate rocks already found in Jizhen turn the provinces of Gyeonggi into a land of fish and rice like the south of the Yangtze River?

Although the third prince is his grandson and son-in-law, compared with Zhou Wang, he still feels a little inferior.Even his family and merchants saw that there was no one in court who could compare with Zhou Wang's uncle, Song Sanyuan, who had acquaintance with his uncle and brother Longyang.

How come such a character has lost his sleeves and can't be his son-in-law?

Although it is impossible to marry his family, such a person should not be buried in the border for too long. I only hope that the war will be settled soon, and His Majesty can call him back.

The three elders before the noon court sent the memorial, especially putting Zhou Wang's book on top, with the key points of the transcriptions posted on it.The emperor opened the memorial step by step, and saw the main points copied by the three elders, as well as their annotations.

A leaflet asking for security, and a few newspapers attached, made the elders see the usefulness of the heart of the collection department.The Son of Heaven looked at King Zhou's greetings and newspapers, and at the compliments of the court elders to his two sons, filled with the pride of being a king, dipped a pen in cinnabar, and wrote a hand letter.

Give this newspaper to the captive chieftains temporarily living in Beijing, and let them see how Dazheng puts morality first and treats the surrendered tribes kindly.If the surrendered captive chieftains can help them persuade more tribesmen to surrender and avoid the loss of life on the grassland, it will be a matter of both ends.

After finishing the inscription, he approved the King of Zhou's notebook, and the tenderness between the lines is the father's longing for his son.

The approved excerpts were sent back to Hanzhong by the original route, and the decree was sent to the central government, where it was polished by the apprentices, and sent to the Ministry of Rites together with the newspapers. Treat their people well.

These people have been in Beijing for some time.

Originally, the imperial court kept them as hostages, in order to prevent them from leading the people to rebel and cover up and kill the Northern Expeditionary Army from behind.But now the people in his tribe are under the care of the second king, and live a happy life.No matter how rebellious these princes and nobles are, they will not be able to take away their horses, cattle and sheep, and I am afraid they will not be able to take away the original tribe.

"Spring and Autumn" says that when barbarians enter China, it will be China.When these herdsmen learn the Chinese language and become familiar with the Han people's industry and agriculture, aren't they the people of the imperial court?When the time comes, send them to be lobbyists to appease those tribes who disagree with Dalu Khan on behalf of the court, which will save a lot of fighting.

At that time, the imperial court will prosper, and the captives will be defeated... His two children will return to Beijing earlier.
