Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 53
"Er. Follow your nonsense, and I will also replace the head of your Jia clan."

"My subordinates." Brother Rong nodded his head, his face full of 'sincerity'. "Your servant will have them arrested now, and they will never commit another crime."

"The matter is over, let's go and have a look at the celestial things that your Jia family has developed with the power of the whole family." Emperor Xiande was still thinking about the matter of cement, and he bit the word "power of the whole family" very hard.He has always had information about the Ningguo Mansion, so he naturally knew that Jia Rong had exaggerated on this matter.

Brother Rong laughed dryly and said: "The world is far away from Zhuangzi outside the city, and the servants are now in mourning at home and cannot leave the mansion. Why don't we wait for the two unscrupulous children of my Jia family who are in charge of the village to come back..."

How could Emperor Xiande bargain with Jia Rong, humming: "After your meritorious service, you attacked the captain of cavalry again. As a military officer, it only takes a hundred days for Ding You."

Uh... Brother Rong understood.The emperor didn't want to be troublesome, so he directly gave Jia Rong an excuse for Ding You, a military officer, to worry about a hundred days.

This statement is not an excuse!Since the Great Yan Dynasty, troops have been raised from Yandi, and joined Liaodong in the north and Mongolia in the west.The original soldiers and officials came from various ethnic groups in various places. Although the Han people were the main people in the dynasty, they were influenced by Jurchen and Mongolian culture.So much so that after the founding of Dayan, the Dingyou system was flexible and changeable, not only abolishing the 27-month Dingyou system, but also separating the 27-day, three-month, and one-year mourning system.

In addition to some other considerations, except for some Confucian officials who insisted on keeping filial piety for 27 months, most other officials only kept Dingyou for one year.Military generals only have a mourning period of 27 days or three months, and even made a rule that Ding You is not allowed below the generals.

Of course, these rules are only for serving officials. Brother Rong has a title but no official position, so he is not affected by these systems.Whether it is according to the old ceremony or the new regulations, it can be done within one year or three years.

Jia Rong went to mourn with a sigh, also changed into casual clothes, and only led the brigade from the palace towards the outside of the city.

After Jia Rong and the others walked away, Jia Jing leisurely came out of the clean room and breathed vigorously in the yard.

"Have you noticed anything unusual?" An old eunuch followed Emperor Xian De's carriage.

The old eunuch looked at Jia Rong who was leading the way on horseback at the front, and replied, "Ningguo Mansion is really strange. In the huge mansion, only a [-]- or [-]-year-old maid in the small courtyard on the east side has a trace of internal energy, and the others have nothing. force."

"Is Jia Jing not in the mansion?" Emperor Xian De asked.

"In the mansion. It's just that Jia Jing's spirit is very weak. I'm afraid that he has been useless all these years, even worse than that 13-year-old maid." The old eunuch replied.

A person next to him suddenly asked: "My old man can tell, how does that girl compare to Jin Yiwei?"

The old inner supervisor said: "It's far away."

The face of the questioner became embarrassing, and Emperor Xiande smiled lightly through the curtain, "Maybe the masters from the Ningguo Mansion just went out. As long as you don't learn to lie when you are in office, I won't blame you either. "

The interrogator quickly bowed and backed away.He remembered that day, the old man next to him suddenly broke into the yamen and took the Commander out. The next day, the inner eunuch ordered him to give death allowance to the Commander's family.

Don't look at the benevolence on the face today, but the methods can be ruthless.After being frightened by this, he dared not be careless.

Before arriving at Ningguo Mansion's farm, Emperor Xiande's party stopped.It turned out that Prince Zhongshun got off the horse and invited the emperor to get off the car, looking at the brand new road connecting with the official road.

"Is this the road made of cement?" the emperor asked the people around him.

A Jinyi envoy said: "Back to the present, this is the way."

Emperor Xian De chopped off his feet, the road was very hard.

He asked Jin Yishi to draw his knife and slash a few times, but only a few slight scratches were left.Seeing Jia Rong at the front, she wondered if these guys were sick?How come it is on the bar with a road.

Can't understand.

Brother Rong rode over very unskillfully.

The Kingdom of Great Yan won the world from horseback, and it highly valued riding and shooting. With special exceptions, officials of the imperial court were not allowed to ride in cars or sedan chairs, but all rode horses.Seeing Jia Rong like this, Emperor Xiande was furious, and gave him a hard look, dissatisfied: "Anyway, he is also a son of meritorious service, and now he is still a nobleman, and he can't even drive a horse well. I lost all my things, if I see you again next time, don’t keep your title.”

"My lord is actually very good at riding a horse, and knows a variety of postures. It's just that I haven't ridden at home for a long time, so I'm not used to it." Brother Rong argued, and said: "Zhuangzi is just ahead, and we will arrive after a short walk. "

Emperor Xian De didn't listen to his nonsense, there are so many different postures when riding a horse.

Looking around curiously, besides the road surface, the canals beside the road are also made of cement.It's just that the surface of the canal is rough, not as delicate as the road surface.

Prince Zhongshun was full of joy, he pulled Brother Rong and asked, "How much does this thing cost? Can it be produced cheaply?"

How can I tell you the cost of this thing?Not even if the emperor asks.Brother Rong tilted his head back slightly, smiled and did not answer him, but continued: "You two masters should go to Zhuangzi first and ask again. Although I am the one who passed on the recipe, the kiln owner was the one who really made him."

King Zhongshun saw Brother Rong's bad attitude towards him, his face darkened, and he was about to scold him, but remembered that Brother Huang was there.I just held back my breath, snorted, and said, "You go to the village to prepare first."

Brother Rong got the order, pouted and left proudly.

Zhongshun Wangcai bowed to the emperor and said: "Brother, this thing has great potential. If it is used in the community, how can it be allowed to fall into the Jia family."

Emperor Xian De nodded and hummed: "You have also read the letter written on the slippery head, it is clearly written that the second Duke Ning Rong passed on to him as a family treasure. How can you say that you can take something that is passed down by the Jia family?" Just take it, it will only chill the hearts of the officials."

Prince Zhongshun sighed: "Since I took over the camping business last year, I know the advantages and disadvantages of water. Brother Huang, let's see that this thing can build canals and dams. I think the people in my dynasty suffer from floods every year. If there is such a thing, the dam can be repaired cheaply.”

The emperor looked at Brother Rong's back, and his mood became complicated. "Since I came to the throne, I have let you be the prime minister first to solve the deficit of the household department, and then build the examination office. Even though there are many people in the court who are dissatisfied with you, you have never complained. Thirteen is the heart of the community, I understand. But this son Those who have been to the heavens cannot continue to be the same.”

King Zhongshun shook his head and asked, "Is there really a Lihentian?"

"If there is no Lihentian, where did this thing come from?" Emperor Xiande boarded the car and said: "Let's go to his village to have a look first."

Jia Rong, who arrived early, was shocked when she saw the changes in the village. He hadn't been here for nearly a year. It turned out that several larger cement kilns had been built next to the old kiln.

Zong Cheng, who was in charge of the craftsman, said with a smile: "Master Rong doesn't know, this is the inspiration from Master Rong. These newly built kilns are not only more stable than the old ones, but also the amount of raw materials fired has increased a lot. few."

Brother Rong looked at the bruise on Zong Cheng's face, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Who came up with this kiln? It's a big reward."

　Ask for collection, ask for tickets.Everyone is reading, try not to keep books.If the data is poor, you will feel flustered when writing.If there is no recommendation, I will panic.When you panic, your thoughts become chaotic.

　　Don't keep books, don't keep books, don't keep books!Please everyone!
