Chapter 487: The Pentagram in the Palace
The relaxed time between father and son always ends quickly. When Wang Yuyan sent an eunuch to urge him, the children were reluctant to look at the small wooden barrel. Compared with the wine in the wooden barrel, the joy of the production process is the most important thing.
Zhao Zhen shook his head slightly, he was careless.
Since the queen sent someone to urge the meal, it was probably too late. Wang Yuyan's advantage is that she can control the time for children to have fun with her. As the lord of the harem, she can see clearly that the children need to relax, and the official family needs to relax even more.
Zhao Zhen didn't know that Wang Yuyan saw the big moves of the court recently. Zhao Zhen was worried about the Nanhai and the Sixteen Guards. Perhaps in the eyes of others, the government did nothing, but in Wang Yuyan's eyes it was a different scene.
Every day, countless official documents are reported urgently to the imperial study room of the official family. It can be said that the eunuchs who shuttled through the imperial study room and Jiasu gate have never stopped during this period, and the lights in the imperial study room of the official family have not been turned off, and even the sky is burning.
Wang Yuyan felt distressed when she thought of this. No one knew the people of the official family better than the harem lords. Looking at the young emperor and children walking not far away, Wang Yuyan put down her discomfort and said with a smile: "The official family is here, and the three students serve the dishes. I heard that the official family has a lot of food at noon, and her appetite must be very good at night."
Wang Yuyan didn't say that Zhao Zhen didn't feel it yet. Once she mentioned it, she really felt her stomach was empty. It seemed that people should exercise more, otherwise they would lose their appetite. The three little guys almost cheered and rushed towards Sancai on the side. Of course, it was not because Sancai was so attractive, but Sancai brought warm water to wash their hands with the eunuch. After playing for an afternoon, his hands were dirty, so he could only eat after washing his hands, right?
Tonight's dinner was very rich, and delicious dishes were served one by one. It was rare for the whole family to get together. Zhao Zhen naturally would not be so simple that everything was recommended. Of course, he should eat more when his children were still growing up.
In Zhao Zhen's opinion, the reason why the ancient princes were prone to die prematurely was that they caused the princes to accumulate food and control their diet. There were many rules in the palace. If Zhao Zhen had not been so open-minded, the three children would not have time to play wildly in the palace. If they eat more and consume more, they would naturally not accumulate food, and they would not have to control the amount of their diet.
Yang Caiwei is always interested in the battle in the Song Dynasty: "I heard that the officials are victorious in the South China Sea, and our elite soldiers and generals of the Song Dynasty are becoming famous outside the domain again?"
Wang Yuyan frowned in dissatisfaction and said, "What did you say when you get the fight and killing military affairs at the dinner table?"
"What's wrong with the military affairs? Isn't the official happy?"
Zhao Zhen rolled his eyes depressedly: "Happy is joy, but there is no point in arguing with you two like this. Ling'er must not learn from the eldest lady and the young lady in the future, they are not desirable."
This was a big 50-plate for each of them, and the dining table finally became quiet. For Vera, who lived a hard life, she enjoyed every meal. In Wang Yuyan's words, she was a person who had been on the big table, but Vera always smiled and continued to enjoy her little happiness.
This is a smart woman who knows what is real and what is illusory.
Zhao Zhen enjoyed the food comfortably. The roast duck tonight tasted really good. It was made of fruit wood smoked. The fragrance emitted by the forest completely invaded the roast duck. The three children next to him had already eaten oil. They almost inherited the advantages of Zhao Zhen Taotie, and their pickiness for food was at its peak.
After the children were picked up by Zhao Zhen from the seat. After eating so much food, he dared not sit on the stool. Compared to his intelligence, Zhao Zhen cared more about the bodies of his children. Even if he lacked talent and virtue, he would have to have a good body in this era. After all, their birth determines their status as a noble man, and even if he does not have the ability to live a stable life under the protection of the royal family.
The three children reluctantly stood up and started walking in the forbidden area with their father's footsteps. This was quite painful for them. They were not restrained when eating and were eating, and they were really uncomfortable when walking.
"Okay, let's go back to the palace, I'm going to go out for a walk."
Zhao Zhen's words made the three children feel like they were amnesty. They nodded and flee. The heavy expression just now disappeared. Zhao Zhen shook his head and must have made an appointment to go to somewhere to go, otherwise he would not have left so excitedly.
The departure of the three emperors naturally followed the palace eunuchs. Zhao Zhen left in a square shape. He wanted to see how the construction progress of the outer court was. It was naturally not the best time to check it out at night, but Zhao Zhen just wanted to see how the craftsmen worked at night.
When he arrived at the scene, Zhao Zhen was shocked by the wisdom of the craftsmen. In order not to affect the rest of the ban, the craftsmen placed a huge bronze mirror and several small bronze mirrors in the brazier. The blazing fire light shone onto a fixed place as the bronze mirror rotated. There was almost no light in other places, as dark as usual nights.
This is not a simple technique. Unless there is an accurate calculation, it is difficult to achieve such a concentrated light source and a little brighter than a searchlight.
Zhao Zhen asked Zhao Xiaowu on the side: "Who made this thing?"
Zhao Xiaowu said proudly: "This is done by my master. The master's wooden work is so powerful. Even my great-grandson praised him! Grandpa, why don't you sleep so late!"
Zhao Zhen was amused by Zhao Xiaowu's words, pointed to his face and said, "Are I very old?"
"No age!"
"Then why do you call me Grandpa?"
"The master said that all the most powerful people should be called Grandpa, such as Grandpa Tian, Grandpa Di, Grandpa Guan, and of course you should also call Grandpa Guan!"
What is this statement... Zhao Zhen corrected helplessly: "You must not call me like this in the future. I call me old for nothing. I will tell you how the progress of the construction is. I will tell you carefully!"
Zhao Xiaowu nodded and responded: "If you go back to the official's house, the merger of these two government offices is almost completed. According to your requirements, the entire yamen is arranged in a pentagonal shape. Each yamen leads to another yamen just by walking around the small pond in the middle, and there is no need to lead from this yamen to that yamen anymore."
Zhao Zhen nodded slightly. The main reason for demolishing the two government offices and the government offices this time was to improve the efficiency of the government offices and reduce a series of time-lapse situations such as shirking responsibility and procrastination.
All the yamen are merged together, but each yamen is relatively independent, so there is a feeling of free delivery and receiving. Zhao Zhen's inspiration naturally comes from the Pentagon in later generations...
I don’t know if the officials who were in the Zhaoying Palace in Yuqing for a period of time could get used to this efficient mechanism, but Zhao Zhen decided that no matter whether they could get used to it, they would have to execute their orders. Zhao Zhen worked a lot to improve the efficiency of the government agencies. These various yamen in the outer court were integrated into their current appearance, and the scale alone was far beyond the past. Moreover, the gardens were created by the best craftsmen from Xijing, which were more than a hundred times more beautiful than before.
The building in front of you has basically been completed and the interior decoration is in full swing. Zhao Zhen believes that it will be put into use here soon, and the five-pointed star next to the Daqing Hall will become the symbol of the Song Dynasty.
