Chapter 637 New vegetable field in the imperial garden(1/2)
On September 23, Zhao Xu returned to Funing Palace as usual after the sutra class.
As soon as he returned to Funing Hall, Feng Jing came to report: "Everyone, the Empress of the Concubine, just now, brought Yan'an County Lord, Yanchang County Lord, and Linzhen County Lord... Now, they are all in the Imperial Garden."
"Hmm?" Zhao Xu frowned and asked, "Why is Mother's Coming?"
Since being named the Imperial Concubine, Zhu has been very satisfied. He has raised several of Zhao Xu's younger brothers and sisters in the Defei Pavilion, which has been renamed Ruisheng Palace all day long.
Occasionally, I went out to reminisce about the past and have fun with Concubine Lin Xian, Concubine Xing and others.
Unless Zhao Xu takes the initiative to look for her, she will not come to Funing Palace easily.
I really engraved the four words "lying down to support my old age" on my forehead.
Seeing this, Empress Dowager Xiang was naturally very happy.
Therefore, the Ren family, Cui family, and even Zhu family have repeatedly given grace.
Money, title, official position, and constant gifts.
"I heard from Liu Aiban that I came to the forefather's brother, Ren Yu, to worship the East End..."
Zhao Xu listened and frowned: "What did Ren Yu do?"
In Zhao Xu's impression, those relatives of Zhu's family were one by one more pit!
He is a person who has a owed IQ but still thinks he is smart.
Whether in his previous life or now, he is used as a foot pad for people and used as a gun.
Gao Gongji, Xiang Zong, Gao Zunhui, and brought several members of the Ren family and Cui family to Xihe and Guangxi.
It is obvious that when something happens, you will take these people to blame, blame and blame them.
The Cui family and Ren family were still very happy, and even felt that their family's lintel was like the Gao family and Xiang family.
Zhao Xu just watched coldly and let them be beaten by society - they wouldn't die anyway.
Feng Jing lowered his head and replied, "But there is Si Yan, who is a entrusted to the east, and is the inspector of Ren Yu, the inspector of the north of the new city of Bianjing. He is diligent and obedient in his work. He wants to be the inspector of the Zuo Street of Kaifeng Prefecture..."
"The Empress of the Concubine is very happy and I will thank you very much."
Zhao Xu let out a sigh of relief.
Ren Yu knew that Zhu's righteous brother took good care of Zhu's family when he was a child, so he had a good relationship.
But the problem is that this guy's cultural level is worrying, and he can barely be considered a dropout in elementary school, and at best he can be a politician.
Can he become an official?
cannot!
Don't have that ability to know!
What's more, a civilian official with real power like the inspector of the Bianjing Zuo Street.
And his immediate boss is still a king like Jia Zongmin.
Zhao Xu seriously suspected that the person who cited him did it on purpose.
Then he asked, "Who recommended it?"
"I heard it was Qian Xie, the clan of the Secretariat..."
"Qian Xie?" Zhao Xu became puzzled: "How did the Qian family get involved with the Ren family?"
Qian Xie was the sixth-generation grandson of Qian Miao, King of Wu Yue, and also the official representative who was fully supported by Qian Xuan and the Qian family.
The Qian family is a truly thousand-year-old family. From the Song Dynasty to the modern era, it has emerged with many talents.
Even now, the Qian family has a lot of power.
The contemporary literary world of the Song Dynasty has its own context. It can be traced back to the Xikun School in the Qian Weiyan shogunate.
Mei Yaochen, Ouyang Xiu, Xie Jiang and others all came out of Qian Weiyan's shogunate.
These people have promoted and promoted a large number of young people.
Therefore, the scholars of the Song Dynasty had to give Qian's family some face.
"I heard that it was because the concubine said good words to Qian Meiren a few months ago..." Feng Jing reported.
Zhao Xu listened and pursed his lips.
Qian Meiren was the youngest concubine of Zhao Xu's father, and was accepted in the first month of the eighth year of Yuanfeng.
According to the ancestor system of the Song Dynasty, after the death of the late emperor, concubines who had no children were usually sent to Yaohua Palace for cultivation.
This is not only to make room for the concubines of the new king, but also to consider these people - they are in the deep palace every day, lonely and lonely, so it is better to go to Yaohua Palace. At least there are people who can speak and live relatively freely, at least they can meet their relatives often.
Of course, the conditions in Yaohua Palace are very difficult.
However, Zhu was a soft-hearted person who saw that Qian Meiren and other young concubines were about to be sent to Yaohua Palace, so she expressed sympathy and said good things to them so that they could continue to stay in the palace.
"How did Ganquan County Jun and the others get together with their mother?" Zhao Xu asked again.
"But the three county lords made an appointment to come to Funing Hall today to take care of the fruits and vegetables in the imperial garden for His Majesty. They happened to meet the concubine on the road, so they came with the concubine..." Feng Jing said: "Now, the three county lords serve the concubine, watering the imperial garden together, and loosening the soil."
"Oh!" Zhao Xu didn't think too much, so he said, "Let's go, and go to see his mother."
Then he took his people to the Imperial Garden behind the Funing Hall.
Soon, Zhao Xu saw that Zhu, who was holding water bowls and watering the fruits and vegetables in the garden, Wen Xunniang, Meng Qingqing and Di Qiang, who were following Zhu, were holding water in the sun.
It seems that they get along well.
Zhao Xu walked forward and shouted, "Mother."
Zhu turned around and saw Zhao Xu. He quickly put down the water bowl in his hand and said, "The official family has finished class?"
Wen Xunniang hurriedly brought the two girls Yingying a gift: "I, please welcome the official family."
"Yes!" Zhao Xu nodded to them, came to Zhu's side, and asked knowingly: "Why did the mother come to Funing Palace today?"
"But it was Ren Yu, the entourage official from the east, who received the court's reward. I came here specially to thank the officials..." Zhu held Zhao Xu's hand and whispered: "I have seen the officials, and I have to go to Baoci Palace and Qingshou Palace to thank him."
Perhaps it was the shadow left by the living environment when he was a child. Although Zhu was already the imperial concubine, he still habitually lowered his lows in front of the two palaces.
She is a woman disciplined under standard feudal ethics.
Put your position very correctly.
Self-awareness is a concubine. In her understanding, Zhao Xu is probably the son whom the Queen Mother borrowed her belly to surrogate.
It seems stupid?
But no one in this palace lived happier and more free than her.
Even in Zhao Xu's previous life, she can live comfortably.
Even after Zhao Xu's death, she was still able to enjoy the happiness of this great man without suspicion. Even the legend of Zhao Ji's cold-hearted boy respected her quite much.
After his death, he was buried with the ritual of the queen and was able to be buried with Yongyuling.
As for now?
He lived a much better life than Zhao Xu's previous life.
Because she climbed up the thick leg of Empress Dowager Xiang through Zhao Xu.
Empress Dowager Xiang fulfilled all her treatment.
He was awarded the title of the Imperial Concubine, and the Imperial Concubine used the notes to call His Highness the Lord. He changed his carriage to the Queen's phoenix crown and was allowed to wear the phoenix clothes. He was the Defei Pavilion where he lived and changed it to Ruisheng Palace.
Except for not having the title of the queen and the power of the queen mother, she gave her everything she deserved.
Even her family and relatives were arranged to have extremely good-sounding and majestic sanitation officials.
As long as she was comfortable in Ruisheng Palace, she took Zhao Xu's younger brother and sister, and if she was interested, she would go to visit Concubine Xing, Concubine Lin and other sisters to play together, and she was very unhappy.
Zhao Xu looked at his mother's happy appearance and said nothing disappointing. He just said, "The officials in the east sacrificing manner and being cautious. If there is a recommendation from the officials, it is for the sake of state affairs, so the mother does not need to thank him."
"It should be, it should be..." Zhu held Zhao Xu's hand and squatted down, with obvious pleasing in his eyes.
"Besides, I haven't seen the official family for a long time..." She lowered her head: "Liu Wei said briefly, the official family has been working hard for state affairs recently and rarely rested... So... I also came to see the official family by the way, and hoped that the official family would take care of the dragon's body for the sake of the country!"
"Thank you for your care!" Zhao Xu said seriously: "I will pay attention!"
really!
He reviewed himself, and recently because of the Ayajinyuan and the war.
He was too active and his rest time was obviously squeezed.
This doesn't work!
"After finishing this period, I will go to Ruisheng Palace to visit my mother, the emperor's brother, and the emperor's sisters!"
Zhu showed a happy expression and said repeatedly: "If the official family wants to come, please ask someone to inform him in advance. I will make some food for the official family in Ruisheng Palace."
"Yes!" Zhao Xu held Zhu's hand and looked at the vegetable field in front of him.
"Mother's mother also likes to grow vegetables?" He looked at the vegetable field in front of him.
Nowadays, the vegetable garden area in this imperial garden is three times larger than in spring, reaching about five or six acres of land.
