Qian Song

Chapter 430 They Are All My Sons (Ask for a Monthly Ticket!)
...

When the morning light shone on the earth, the train on which Qin Hui's family was riding was already approaching Nanjing.

Looking at the more and more familiar scenery outside the window, and taking another look at Qin Zhen, who was not at all like him but very much like Li Cun, Qin Hui felt as if he had knocked over a bottle of five flavors, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty, let alone how complicated it was.

To be honest, before coming to Nanjing Yingtian Mansion, Qin Hui often forgot that Qin Zhen was not his own son, but the evil offspring of Li Cun and his wife Wang.

Every time at that time, Qin Hui would be extremely happy and teach Qin Zhen everything.

Qin Zhen also strives for success, he can learn what Qin Hui taught him, and he can draw inferences from one instance, which makes Qin Hui feel very comforted.

The time when the father was kind and the son was filial, made Qin Hui indulge in the life of teaching Qin Zhen.

——Qin Hui couldn't even tell whether he wanted to show Li Cun that he was willing to help Li Cun raise his son, or that he really wanted to be a father.

It wasn't until Li Cun ordered Qin Hui to bring Qin Zhen to Jinling City in Nanjing that Qin Hui realized that Qin Zhen didn't really belong to him. He had spent so much effort just to raise his son for Li Cun.

anger!
Unwilling!

Dejected!

Think of a way to hide Qin Zhen and prevent Li Cun from seeing Qin Zhen, the child prodigy brought up by Qin Hui?

Qin Hui thought about it for a long, long time, and even thought about rebelling.

But in the end, Qin Hui, who knew that other than obeying Li Cun, would never be feasible, had no choice but to bring Qin Zhen to Nanjing Jinling City to meet Li Cun.

As for the Wang family, he will also follow.

To be honest, Qin Hui, who has not completely forgotten the relationship between them, feels very uncomfortable about this.

Qin Hui is so smart, how could he fail to guess the little thoughts of Wang Shi who is at the age of a wolf like a tiger?
What's more, Wang's excuse is too bad.

See Li Qingzhao?

Others don't know, how can Qin Hui not know that the person Wang dislikes the most in his life is Li Qingzhao?Don't look at the two as cousins, and don't look at the frequent correspondence between the two.

in fact--

Wang's dislike for Li Qingzhao did not suddenly appear recently, but increased day by day.

As early as when the two were not married, the person Wang, who was less than ten years old at that time, admired most was the talented girl Li Qingzhao.

For a while, cousin Li Qingzhao was Wang's idol.

It was also because of the influence of Li Qingzhao that Wang fell in love with literature, and gained a little fame in the literary world.

Later, Li Qingzhao married Zhao Mingcheng, the son of Prime Minister Zhao Tingzhi, and married into a powerful family. The Wang family admired Li Qingzhao even more, thinking that Li Qingzhao was an idol that she could never catch up with in her life.

Unexpectedly, the court situation of the Zhao Song Dynasty changed suddenly, and the Li family was involved in the fierce party struggle between the old and new parties in the Zhao Song court. Li Qingzhao's father, Li Gefei, was included in the Yuanyou Party membership and was not allowed to hold a post in the capital.

Later, the party struggles in the Zhao and Song courts intensified, and Li Gefei was accused of being a "Yuanyou Party member" by Li Qingzhao. In Liangcheng, there was no place for Li Qingzhao to stand. Li Qingzhao had to leave Beijing alone and return to his hometown to join his family members who had been repatriated earlier.

Then, because of incompetence, Zhao Tingzhi was dismissed from the position of prime minister, and Zhao Tingzhi's political enemy Cai Jing became prime minister again, and Li Qingzhao seemed to have completely lost the chance to stand up.

However, Wang Zhongshan, Wang's father, knew the current affairs and attached himself to Tong Guan, a powerful man in the dynasty. Wang even worshiped Tong Guan as his adoptive father.

As a result, Li Qingzhao's identity that once suppressed Wang's identity suddenly ceased to exist.

In addition, as Wang grew up, she became slim and graceful, and her beauty was not inferior to that of Li Qingzhao.

Wang gradually began to compare with Li Qingzhao, and even gradually began to develop some sense of superiority.

When Wang married Qin Hui, Wang, who felt that Qin Hui, who was talented and upright, was so much better than Zhao Mingcheng, who had a lot of grievances, had already begun to despise Li Qingzhao, and was even unwilling to compare with Li Qingzhao.

Unexpectedly, Li Qingzhao overtook another car in a corner, climbed onto Li Cun's bed, and became Li Cun's lover.

No matter how good Qin Hui is, he can't be compared with Li Cun, the emperor of the ages.

Only in this way, the Wang family completely lost to Li Qingzhao.

The point is not only that, Li Qingzhao was originally connected with the Wang family because of "infertility". As a result, after marrying Li Cun, Li Qingzhao became pregnant with the dragon species, and it was a double hit, giving birth to two son.

What made Wang even more jealous of Li Qingzhao was that Li Cun also withstood the pressure of all parties and supported Li Qingzhao, a female generation, who presided over the compilation of "Hongwu Dadian", so that Li Qingzhao not only could be famous in history, but also let Li Qingzhao faintly overwhelm all the literati in the world.

It can be said that the Wang family was completely defeated by Li Qingzhao.

That's right.

Rather than saying that Mrs. Wang doesn't like Li Qingzhao, it's better to say Mrs. Wang is jealous of Li Qingzhao, and she is jealous of Li Qingzhao in every way.

What made Wang feel uncomfortable the most was that for Qin Hui's future, she had to suppress her jealousy towards Li Qingzhao, and tried her best to kneel and lick Li Qingzhao.

If there were no accidents, Li Qingzhao and Wang would have completely decided the outcome at that time.

——Although the Wang family was not reconciled, under the circumstances at that time, even if Qin Hui could one day become the prime minister of the Dagan Dynasty with one person under one man and over ten thousand people, Qin Hui would definitely have to rely on Li Cun under the eternal emperor Li Cun. Therefore, she can never be compared with Li Qingzhao who is covered by Li Cun.What's more, Li Qingzhao also gave birth to two dragon sons. If Li Qingzhao was willing to enter the palace and become an imperial concubine, it would definitely be no problem, and the Wang family was not even a royal wife at that time.

Who would have thought that, in a twist of fate, Li Cun mistook Wang Shi for Li Qingzhao, played with Wang Shi, and let Wang Shi give birth to Qin Zhen.

Although not as born as Li Qingzhao, Qin Zhen is a child prodigy. Wang has absolute confidence in Qin Zhen. She believes that Qin Zhen is definitely better than Li Tong and Li Bin. Even Wang has heard that Li Tong and Li Bin are also young. become famous.

As for Li Qingzhao's current status as the host of the compilation of "Hongwu Dadian", Wang feels that it is nothing at all. If Li Cun is willing to support her, she can also preside over the compilation of "Hongwu Dadian", but Li Cun loves Li Qingzhao more That's all.

But then again, even if Li Cun dotes on Li Qingzhao, Li Qingzhao is just Li Cun's mistress and a plaything, essentially not much different from her Wang family.

In addition, now Li Qingzhao is in her forties, an old woman in her fifties, while she, Wang, is only 36, much younger than Li Qingzhao.

So, the wind stopped, the rain stopped, and Wang felt that she could do it again.

This is also one of the reasons why Wang came to Nanjing Jinling City.

Although Qin Hui didn't know all of Wang's psychology, Qin Hui knew that Wang would definitely not come to visit Li Qingzhao, whom she didn't like.

Then combined with the fact that Wang would call "Guanjia" emotionally in his sleep from time to time, why did Wang rush to Jinling City in Nanjing, isn't it ready to come out?

But Qin Hui knew why Wang came here this time, how could he still care?Do you still dare to control?
So Qin Hui can only be confused...

The train slowly drove into Nanjing Station, and the noisy scene of Jinling City came into the eyes of Qin Hui's family through the window.

The crowd on the station square was bustling with people rushing past, resisting, hugging or carrying large and small packages, and a bustling picture unfolded in front of Qin Hui's family.

Passengers on the train waited excitedly to get off, with anticipation and joy on their faces.

In the same carriage with Qin Hui's family were several young talents and scholars. They happily discussed the sacrificial ceremony and the selection of Li Cunhai's son-in-law. Their faces were full of youthful vigor and longing for the future.

"In the Han Dynasty, only the four counties of the Han Dynasty were recovered, and in the Tang Dynasty, Anton was the capital to protect the mansion. Only Your Majesty has the entire territory of Jidi, so that it belongs to our Daqian Dynasty. Who can compare with Your Majesty throughout the ages?"

"It's not just the Jidi, I heard that His Majesty has sent Marshal Yue, Li Dutong, and Han Dutong to fight. With the Jidi as a springboard, I will work hard and have trains to transport food, grass, supplies, weapons and equipment, and reinforcements. This battle will surely wipe out gold Prisoner, keep me on the frontier for a hundred years and no one will dare to commit another crime!"

"The golden captives are at the end of their strength, and my great power is unprecedentedly strong. The little Jin country is definitely not my great enemy. Therefore, I secretly think that this sacrificial ceremony will not be long, and there must be a next celebration."

"The hero sees the same thing. I am dissatisfied with you, even if there is no gain here, the younger brother is planning to stay in the capital for a while, and wait for the next time His Majesty recovers the Northeast before seeking an official opportunity."

"Haha, Brother Xian and I have thought about going together. Now that I am working hard to expand the territory, the newly acquired land must be a waste of people who lack governance. Your Majesty is not rigid and likes to send talents in a variety of ways. This time, Your Majesty Don’t ask about your background, just look at talent, learning, and character to choose a son-in-law, that’s an ironclad proof, with such a sage, why don’t we, well-educated people, worry about not having the opportunity to become an official?”

"Your Majesty is wise, there is no doubt about it, it's just what His Majesty said in the edict, not only my generation of scholars, but also outstanding people in soldiers, farmers, engineers, doctors, and merchants can also participate in the selection of son-in-law. Isn't this messing with the etiquette of noble and humble? "

"Ah! The times are different. I have worked so hard to become so strong, and I have also contributed a lot in soldiers, farmers, workers, doctors, and merchants. It is no wonder that His Majesty favored him."

"Soldiers, farmers, workers, doctors, and merchants are nothing more than that. I'm afraid that one day they can be compared with my generation of scholars!"

"..."

Qin Hui's family, who were also waiting to get off the bus, felt differently after hearing the discussions of these young talents and scholars.

Qin Hui saw that these young talented scholars could barely accept Li Cun's comparison of soldiers, farmers, workers, doctors, and businessmen with them. He couldn't help but have a clearer understanding of Li Cun's prestige. Before that, he was jealous The unrealistic fantasy that was born under it completely disappeared at this moment.

Wang's blood boiled with enthusiasm for Li Cun's domineering plan to regain the Northeast as soon as he recovered Jidi. She felt that only a man like Li Cun was a real hero, and Qin Hui couldn't compare with Li Cun.

And Qin Zhen was thinking: "Your Majesty is going to destroy the two countries in a row, is it too hasty? Why didn't Zaizhi persuade?"

The train finally stopped at the platform, and the passengers rushed to get off the train.

Qin Hui's family also got off the train with the crowd.

After getting off the train, Qin Zhen couldn't help being attracted by the scenery around Nanjing Station. Buildings with excellent structure and safety stood in his line of sight. The heavy cultural atmosphere made him feel awed. Looking around, everywhere It can be seen that there are safe, convenient and fast services. In addition, there are comfortable lounges, restaurants, shops, etc. to provide passengers with a more comfortable travel experience.

Qin Zhen heard from Qin Hui that this Nanjing Railway Station was converted from a post house with the most convenient transportation in Jinling City.

Not only that, but many railway stations in the Dagan Dynasty were converted from post houses or post stations, and the earliest railways in the Dagan Dynasty were built along the post roads.

Qin Zhen thought from the bottom of her heart: "Your Majesty is truly gifted by leading craftsmen to build trains and connect posthouses with railways..."

The child prodigy Qin Zhen knows very well that in Chinese history, rulers will do many things in order to maintain their rule.

Like the system of strong stems and weak branches, that is, all the elite and heavy soldiers of the country are gathered around the capital, while other regions are only allowed to keep a very small standing army except for the border.Such as the Qin Dynasty and Song Dynasty.

For example, the central government has tax revenues, that is, the central government has set up money and food transfer agencies in various places to empty out local finances and make them lose the economic foundation for rebellion.

Like the regular debriefing system, that is, the chief executive of each region must regularly go to the capital to conduct examinations and debriefing. If he does not come, he will be labeled as a rebel.

Like the imperial examination system, that is, the state firmly controls the selection of talents from all over the country through the imperial examination system, so that most of the officials at all levels are "students of the emperor" and lose the motivation to rebel.

Like ideological control, that is, feudal rulers promoted Confucianism, emphasized loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and suppressed local uprisings ideologically.

It is also like emphasizing civility over military affairs, that is, in the appointment of local governors, civilian officials are the main ones, and civil officials lack the ambition of rebellion and military leadership.

All in all, because transportation and information were underdeveloped at that time, the rulers could only use all means to implement a system of strengthening centralization, and some systems, such as the system of strong stems and weak branches and the system of emphasizing civil power over military affairs, were obviously harmful to the development of the country. Those who have to do it.

However, Li Cun invented trains, developed navigation technology, and invented the telegraph to speed up information transmission and marching speed, and completely got rid of those systems that were harmful to the development of the country.

Not only that.

The reason why the territory of those dynasties before the Dagan Dynasty was not large enough was not only because those dynasties could not conquer such a large territory, but also because even if those dynasties could conquer such a large territory, it was also because of the underdeveloped transportation and information. It is impossible to control those areas for a long time.

However, the Dagan Dynasty, which invented the train, vigorously developed navigation technology, and invented the telegraph to speed up information transmission and marching speed, had no worries in this regard at all.

It is no exaggeration to say that in theory, the Dagan Dynasty could even control the whole world.

Facing Li Cun, who created such a situation, even if he is as smart as Qin Zhen, he has no choice but to surrender.

Qin Hui's family had just entered the waiting hall through the high-level passenger passage, and saw two twelve or thirteen-year-old boys who looked a little like Qin Zhen.

Seeing these two teenagers, Qin Zhen didn't have time to feel the strength of Li Cun's genes, so she hurriedly said to Qin Zhen, "Zhener, come and meet your two cousins."

While saying this, Qin Hui dragged Qin Zhen to Li Tong and Li Tong, and then Qin Zhen warmly and politely introduced Qin Zhen to Li Tong and Li Tang: "Qian Ya Nei, Yan Ya Nei, this is Your cousin Qin Zhen." Then, he introduced Li Tong and Li Tong to Qin Zhen: "Zhen'er, this is the Quya Nei and Qu Ya Nei of your cousin Yi'an Layman's house that my father often told you about, you brothers Let’s get closer in the future.”

Li Tong greeted Qin Hui's family very calmly: "I have seen my aunt, uncle, and cousin Zhen. My mother has received a telegram from my aunt, but she has not been out of the editing office for many years, so I asked my two brothers to come pick up my aunt and my cousin." Uncle, Cousin Hazel."

Li Yan skipped Qin Hui and Wang's and said directly to Qin Zhen: "Listen to my mother, cousin Zhen's poems are pretty good, and you and I will have a discussion someday."

Qin Zhen said to Li Tong and Li Tong with enthusiasm and politeness just like Qin Hui: "Cousin Tong, cousin Tong is a great talent, my younger brother will definitely learn a thing or two from these two cousins ​​in the future."

in fact--

Don't look at the superficial warm greetings of Li Tong, Li Tong and Qin Zhen at this moment, in fact, the three of them are all wondering in their hearts now!
——All three of them were thinking: "The three of us look too much alike, don't we?"

Li Tong and Li Tang look almost the same, which is normal, after all, they are twins with the same parents.

But the problem is, Qin Zhen has six or seven points similar to Li Tong and Li Tong in appearance.

in fact--

In other words, it is normal for Li Tong, Li Tong and Qin Zhen to look a little alike, after all, Li Qingzhao and Wang are cousins.

But the problem is, Li Tong and Li Tong don't look like Li Qingzhao, and Qin Zhen doesn't look like Wang Shi either.

The point is, Li Tong and Li Tong know who they look like.

This inevitably made Li Tong, Li Tong and Qin Zhen murmur in their hearts.

Fortunately, both Li Tong and Qin Zhen were scheming people, but Li Tong wanted to point out this strange phenomenon, but was stopped by Li Tong's eyes.

Under the warm hospitality of Li Tong and Li Tong, Qin Hui's family left the train station.

With Li Tong, Li Tong and their entourage, they came to a square full of two-wheeled passenger vehicles (that is, rickshaws) pulled by human power. Qin Hui's family, including the powerful and well-informed Qin Hui, all Was shocked by an iron box with four wheels...
