The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty Chapter 279: Unexpectedly
Since Zhao Yunchu secretly left the capital, the princess has not stopped. Seeing heaven and earth entering the palace to ask for a meeting, either to see the official's house, or to find the queen mother, tears are streaming down, begging Renzong to help her find her son.
But Zhao Yunchu left Beijing quickly, no matter how much he chased him, he couldn't catch up. After everyone has arrived in Yizhou, it doesn't really mean much to chase it back, right?
The princess said that it didn't make much sense. She told Renzong about the relationship between Zhao Yunchu and Yun Yanhui.
Renzong was stunned at the time, and cursed Yun Yanhui inwardly. Now he can't pretend he doesn't know.
He definitely doesn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, and he agreed with Yun Yanhui at the beginning. If both families agree, he will make it easier for him.
However, who knew that an accident had exposed Zhao Yunchu in advance.
The princess cried, Yan Ge'er is the official family's right-hand man, and Xiaochu is the official family's cousin. This is not only a business, but also a family affair. When the two of them get together, you must not ignore the official family. , we must unite to suppress this bad ethos and let them return to the right path.
Because Renzong had already promised Yun Yan to return, it was inconvenient for him to defect. Therefore, Renzong had to keep putting off the princess.
How can the princess be willing to give up? She was older than Renzong in terms of seniority, and inconvenient to reveal that she knew the truth, Renzong was too embarrassed to be too embarrassed, so she was entangled until Yunyan returned to their capital.
Not to mention, Zhao Yunchu's departure from Beijing was concealed. Every time the princess complained to Renzong and the Queen Mother, she was careful not to let others hear it. Guessing what happened to the royal family.
Now seeing this group of captives and escapees, all of them are full of vigor and blood, and their faces are ruddy, how could Renzong not feel resentment in his heart?
Those who are close to Zhu are red, those who are close to Mo are black, the cousin and Yunyan have been together for a long time, and their cheeks have become thicker!
Amid the dazed and uneasy anxiety of others, Yunyan returned to calm and calm, without saying a word, and went on with a big courtesy, "The official family is honored, and the little official was always grateful for the kindness of the emperor during his captivity. Mighty. When I think about how the officials are worried about the safety of ministers and others in Beijing, I feel extremely guilty, why I was so careless and fell into the wrong hands. In such a mood, I have to do what I can and don’t waste depth. The opportunity for the Tu people to learn about the local customs and people's livelihood. After being immersed in the scene and painstakingly..."
Everyone felt goosebumps when they heard him describe that he was also feeling some kind of grace when he lived on the mountain, and he acted very affectionately.
As for this brother Yan, I don't know if his culture is not too high, so he just writes plain reports. At other times, he just creates a lot of new words. When he uses idioms, it's always weird.
Renzong: "...the key point."
Yunyan quickly took out a memorial from her arms, "Writing a memorial, it explains in detail the minister's understanding and advice on the local Tu people."
Renzong looked at Yun Yanhui tangled, he still had a lot of things to say, and he didn't have time to teach Zhao Yunchu to leave Beijing privately, which caused him to be tortured... Hey, but he also wanted to see Zuo Shu, and now I will take it up Now, I'm ashamed to blame me!
Yunyan looked back at Renzong sincerely, making Renzong more and more embarrassed.
Anyway, it is so dangerous for Yunyan Hui people to be kidnapped, and they are still thinking about contributing to the country, which is also very hard. Renzong coughed in embarrassment and gave Chen Lin a wink, and Chen Lin went down to pick up Zuo Shu.
Renzong took it over and glanced at it, confirming that Yun Yanhui wrote it seriously, and then said sternly: "Everyone, Aiqing, has worked hard, and they will reward their own merits and deeds in the future. Zhufeng and Caiyun stay, and the others Go home."
Bai Yutang is still confused, but he thinks, the official family keeps these two people, probably one is to ask about the memorial, and the other is to teach a lesson about Lijing, which belongs to the royal family, see The official's face has calmed down, and it should be fine. So, Bai Yutang agreed and was going to report back to Bao Zheng.
After everyone else left, Renzong stepped down from the throne, poked Zhao Yunchu's forehead with his dragon claw, and reprimanded: "Go to the wall in the corner first!"
Yunyan gave Zhao Yunchu a reassuring look back, and then he walked to the corner bleakly, facing the wall to reflect.
Renzong read Zong Shu carefully, and found that Yun Yanhui mainly mentioned a few points here. A sinicization is not strong enough, and simply promoting the Han culture to the Tu people is not enough to penetrate the hearts of the people. Even the local government is not very strict.
This point should be the same as the chieftain system, first select some talented people to go to the Han family official school to study or even become officials, and then let them spread the word. Better, build more official schools.
In addition, there was an act of the court in the past, that is, to move Han people from a similar place. However, when Yunyan returned to the end, he found out that the Han people actually had a very bad life. One was that they could not get used to the environment, and the other was that they were easily bullied by the local Tu people.
Yunyan Hui suggested to move the Yao people directly from the adjacent two lakes. There are many Yao people in the two lakes, especially in Hunan. They are also Tu people who are used to living in the mountains, but they have accepted more Han culture very early. Instead of moving the Han people, it is better to move the Yao people to the past.
Yunyan made another big discovery. On his way back, he found that someone in the area was actually growing cotton. Cotton was introduced from foreigners. Previously, China was all silk cotton, and cotton was not promoted until the Ming Dynasty. These cottons in Lingnan may have come from the sea.
In fact, there are quite a few people who grow hemp in this area, and they grow well here, and the cloth produced is good. Many Tu people have unique dyeing techniques. From this point of view, it is very suitable for the development of the textile industry.
Because it has not been promoted, there are not many people who grow cotton in Guangxi, and there is no large-scale development, and the cotton spinning technology is not mature. But Yun Yanhui knew that cotton was a good thing, and if it was widely planted, it would benefit a lot in the future. As soon as he found out that cotton had flowed into China, he immediately took it to his heart and wrote it in the memorial.
In addition, there are a lot of Yun Yanhui's experiences and thoughts in Guangnan, including the purple vetch he saw that can be used as green manure. Some ideas are mature, some are just put forward, and we still need to brainstorm and discuss again, but the views are eye-catching.
A trip to the field is very helpful. In fact, many of them were written down after Yun Yanhui combined his knowledge of existing things in modern times, confirmed the local situation, and thought about it. It is only because he does not know all the details, so the level of detail varies.
For example, he doesn't know how to weave cotton, or how to plant it best, and needs professional consideration.
After watching it, Renzong tasted it carefully, and felt that some of it was very feasible and fit the actual needs. The eyes of Yun Yanhui became more and more kind.
Yunyan saw that Renzong became more and more pleasant, and took the opportunity to tell some new things and interesting things he saw in Guangnan, which made Renzong happy.
Renzong, who was in a good mood, put away the memorial and said gently to Yunyan: "It's not easy for you to think so much in such a situation."
Who knows if the officers will murder him brutally? But Yun Yanhui didn't seem to worry so much. After others were captured, he might come back to complain, but instead of complaining, he handed in a very valuable memorial.
... Such a good official has no other needs, just want to cut off a sleeve, just cut a sleeve! I still don't want to harm other people's daughters, and I'm going out of Beijing alone to save people. Everything is out of love, what's wrong? !
Now it's been accidentally revealed, and it's about to be suppressed by the parents. It's miserable enough!
Renzong deeply felt that he was embarrassed to scold Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu. Maybe others can, but both of them are loyal to him, how can he be embarrassed.
"Caiyun," Renzong called out to Zhao Yunchu. Seeing him look back at him in a dazed and timid manner, he felt even more pity in his heart, "Come here."
After Zhao Yunchu arrived, Renzong said to the two of them: "The eight uncles and eight aunts are just angry for a while. Don't be hard-headed and make plans. I can't do it, but I can guarantee that as long as you don't want to, you won't. People will marry you."
Yunyan returned with great joy, although Renzong still said that he remained neutral, but he could see that his position was a bit crooked, and he promised that the two would not be forced to marry.
The two bowed and thanked them together. Originally, Zhao Yunchu entered the palace with the idea of being scolded, but he left happily.
……
When he left the palace gate, Zhao Yunchu started to be in trouble again. He didn't know if he should ask Yan Ge'er to go home with him.
He wants Brother Yan to go back with him, and it should be good to make it clear to his parents, but he is afraid that his parents will do something to Brother Yan or say something hurtful.
Yunyan had a plan to return, "Go to my house, I have already asked people to inquire, and the prince and princess are also at my house."
Zhao Yunchu didn't know when Yun Yan returned to inquire. Thinking that his parents were at Yan Ge'er's house, he must have been talking with Mrs. Zheng, and he couldn't help shivering.
Yunyan held Zhao Yunchu's hand back, looked at him comfortably, and drove back.
When I got home, I saw that the Wangfu's bicycle frame was outside his house, and there were guards guarding it. As soon as the two came back, someone went in first to report the letter.
Yunyan pulled Zhao Yunchu slowly to the door, no one stopped him, but heard the voice of the princess from inside: "...Liu Niang, they have come back, you can say something, we will I've only told you today, and I really can't think of a better way, so I can only ask you to persuade Brother Yan."
The princess thought that Mrs. Zheng could persuade Brother Yan, and between Brother Yan and Brother Chu, it must be Brother Yan who made the decision. Even if Zheng Ping didn't know how to speak, she had already helped to think about it, and it was organized and organized, and listed one, two, three, and the first to bear the brunt was that Ge'er was the only bloodline of the Yun family...
Yun Yanhui took a deep breath. He kept it secret for a long time, and he kept preparing, but he couldn't stop the accident and asked someone to help him come out of the closet. At this moment, I simply hit the curtain to go in.
Everyone inside knew that they had returned to Beijing and were outside, so they were not surprised.
Yun Yanhui saw Zhao Yuanyan's face dignified, the princess's eyes were red, and Zheng Ping was expressionless. He stared at Zheng Ping closely, hoping to find some clues from her face and think about how to deal with it.
Zheng Ping did not see the two coming in, she solemnly gave the princess a deep salute.
The princess stretched out her hand but didn't stop her, "What is Liu Niang doing..."
Zheng Ping said apologetically, "Pity the parents in the world, but...the concubine can only say sorry."
Zhao Yuanyan and his wife looked at Zheng Ping blankly as if they had been struck by lightning.
Zhao Yunchu also showed an incredible look. He was afraid for a long time. He was afraid that Mrs. Zheng, who had been very gentle to him before, would show disappointment like his mother, and even cried and made a lot of noise. Unexpectedly, Zheng Ping apologized with an expression of rejection!
Only Yun Yanhui was thoughtful, but it was unexpected and reasonable.
Zheng Ping lowered her eyebrows and said, "In those days, because Yan Ge'er's father was from Miao, our concubine's family did not allow us to marry, and we could only decide privately for life. Even after his father died, my parents and my parents were not willing to marry him. Let Brother Yan enter the Zheng family. However, the concubine never regretted it, instead, she thought to herself, if it was their own child, what kind of person would they want to be with? block."
She raised her head and smiled helplessly: "I'm also very surprised that Brother Yan and Brother Chu have such a relationship... I've been silent for a long time just now, just thinking of a truth, what kind of person is not divided into men and women Yeah. So, please forgive me for not persuading me."
"..." Zhao Yuanyan and his wife were already in a mess. They thought they were sure of everything, but they had mistaken Zheng Ping from the beginning.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Ping did not change her previous style. She seemed to be gentle and reasonable, but in fact she would rather cut off the blood of the Yun family than follow the principles and never stop her son from being with the person she likes. She seems to have carried the banner of freedom of marriage.
