After a long silence, Empress Dowager Xiang finally spoke again: "Although it is for a state affairs, it should be different from far and near!"

As the queen trained by the literati family, although Empress Dowager Xiang is not very good at ordinary affairs, she needs the assistance of the magistrates.

However, her political sensitivity is quite keen.

So, as soon as Zhao Xu said that, she immediately realized it.

really!

After the first harvest of cotton on Xihe Road last year, it brought millions of dollars in profits to the court!

Only more this year!

According to Brother Liu, in the future, this will be a transaction with a profit of more than tens of millions of yuan!

With such a large income, the Tian family must have nails in the local area.

Making money is the instinct of the Zhao official family.

As long as you hear that you have money to make, your eyes will shine and you will pounce forward like a hungry wolf.

As long as you can make money, the Zhao official family can do anything and are willing to do it!

This is like a modern lighthouse, which cannot be heard of "discovering oil".

Oil can breed the US military, and making money can also breed the Zhao official family.

In the past century, in order to make money, the Zhao officials (including the empress dowager who is in charge of politics) have done everything they can!

This is the illusion of the Zhao Song Dynasty.

Many later generations commented on the problem of the "small family" of the Zhao family, which arises because of this.

Because the Zhao official family will save money in their hands as long as they find out.

For example, before Zhao Xu relaxed supervision, the textile industry in the world, except for small farmers, was officially operated as long as it was scaled.

At most it is to give the people a choice to buy pony.

But this is also an advantage of the Zhao Song Dynasty.

Especially when Zhao Xu wants to promote the industrial revolution or relax supervision and break the rules and regulations.

There is nothing more convincing than 'make money'.

no way!

Since its founding, the Zhao Song Dynasty faced the problem of how to support millions of professional soldiers and a huge group of bureaucratic nobles.

If you don’t work hard to make money, you can’t afford rewards or support the bureaucratic team.

Then the big-headed soldier will use a knife to reason with the Zhao Guan family - the emperor, the strong soldiers and horses will do it!

Let’s see if my knife is sharp?

But if you can't afford to support bureaucrats, you can't give them enough generous treatment.

Then the foundation of the rule of the entire country will be shaken.

Therefore, I can only work hard to make money!

Find ways to make money with all your money!

The source of Xining's failure was here - Wang Anshi wanted to take his time, but the Zhao Guan family in the palace only wanted to get money immediately to feed the hungry tigers and jackals in the zoo.

Because the palace is very clear about why the tigers and jackals in the zoo in the Song Dynasty do not eat people!

Seeing that Empress Dowager Xiang's attitude was relaxed, Zhao Xu hurriedly said, "My mother's teachings are in mind, and please rest assured. This matter has been settled!"

"It's good if you know what's going on in your heart!" said the Empress Dowager Xiang.

Then, she looked at Zhao Xu and said, "But, in order to appease everyone, this year's Xinglong Festival, there must be another group of female officials!"

"This is the mother who is the one who decides this!" Zhao Xu nodded.

"Yeah!" Xiang Gong nodded: "In addition, the Grand Master has submitted a letter and begged to enter the Ganquan County Lord to serve the county king and serve the county king..."

Zhao Xu laughed as he heard this. Wen Xunniang went to Wen's family and was a concubine who served others.

Where are there any maids?

Wen Yanbo was clearly under the guise to stuff people into the palace.

Lao Deng seemed to be excited.

Then he asked, "What did the mother think?"

"The Grand Master is highly respected, so please allow me!" Xiang Gong said softly.

She is naturally willing to do this kind of favor.

No matter what, Wen Xunniang also recognized her as her adopted mother and was educated by her.

He is the daughter of the civil minister's family again!

She will, of course she will!

Zhao Xu nodded and said, "Then let it go!"

Xiang Hun nodded: "Then I will order the Grand Master to send the county maid into the palace during the Xinglong Festival!"

Now, there are almost four months left before Xinglong Festival.

Four months have passed, and it’s enough for the Wen family to find the right person.

that is……

In her heart, Empress Dowager Xiang couldn't help but think: "Will there be one of them named Li?"

After entering the palace concubines of the Song Dynasty, they would bring some maids trained since childhood into the palace from their own homes.

These maids are usually counted as the shadow clone of the hostess.

Usually serve the people and keep busy.

When needed, serve as the hostess’ meal replacement to meet the emperor’s needs.

Its role positioning is similar to the folk maids in the room.

Generally speaking, the children born to these people will be considered as mistresses and secretly released.

Thinking back then, Zhang Xianmingsu had no son, so he could not be named the queen.

So, the maid Li, who was beside her, stepped forward and gave birth to the Ren Temple for Zhang Xianmingsu.

The ecstatic Ren Temple immediately announced that this was the origin of Concubine De!

Zhang Xianmingsu was successfully enthroned as the queen.

However, Li, who is a shadow clone, was only named the county lord.

This is the standard folk gameplay.

However, this gameplay can work among the people, but it won’t work in the Tianjia.

Because once the prince is born, he will eventually become the emperor.

He will inevitably find a way to correct his biological mother.

Just like Ren Temple, Li was finally conferred the title of Empress Zhang Yi.

Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Xiang looked at the child in front of him.

Seeing Brother Six holding her hand, looking admiring and close, she felt relieved.

Because this child really regarded her as her legitimate mother as her biological mother and served her.

Even though he knew clearly that his biological mother was Zhu.

In front of her, Zhu was even more cautious and never dared to regard herself as the biological mother of the official family.

On the contrary, we always keep low and make small.

Whether in public or private, the posture is very straightforward.

It is also said to the outside world that the official family is born by the Queen Mother, and I am just nurturing it on my behalf].

She looked like a folk concubine. Even the clothes she knitted for her sixth brother in the palace were sent to her, and in her name, to Funing Palace.

This is very good!

It will save many troubles in the future.

Zhu is so tactful, and Liu Brother is so filial.

Her legitimate mother and mistress are not stingy either.

Therefore, over the past two years, she has continuously improved Zhu's status and treatment.

Not only was he allowed Zhu to be promoted to the concubine, but he also promoted the place where Zhu lived, called the "Dian", and was called the "Secret" by the orders used by the concubine. At the same time, he also ordered the position of the concubine to be the Minister of the Inner Eunuch, and then was under the Empress Dowager.

She even thought about it that in the next hundred years, the will of the will will clear the obstacles for the Sixth Brother and Zhu.

For example, the story of Zhang Xianming's undisciplined edict honoring Empress Zhang Hui (Empress Yang of Baoqing), and the undisciplined edict honored Zhu as the empress dowager.
