Chapter 495 Can’t go on like this(1/3)
Jiying Hall.
The first sutra feast after the Dragon Boat Festival ended successfully.
Deng Runfu led the banquet officials to Zhao Xu and bowed slightly.
Zhao Xu also stood up and saluted these banquet officials.
When it comes to being polite, Zhao Xusu has done a very good job.
This is both a character design and what he is used to in modern times.
That's why people who have been in contact with him always say "like a spring breeze" or something like that.
In fact, he respects people very much.
Just like coal bosses respect professionals.
After seeing off Deng Runfu and other banquet officials, Zhao Xu took his companions to the imperial garden behind Jiying Palace and exercised together with brother Zhong Jianzhong.
After a simple set of Taizu Changquan strikes, Zhao Xu had already started to sweat.
The female officials who had been prepared nearby immediately gathered around him, wiped his body with the prepared hot towels, and then changed into their fragrant regular clothes.
The other companion readers were all interested in the process and bowed to say goodbye.
They have to go home.
Also planning to pay their respects are Zhong Jianzhong and Zhong Shizhong Kunzhong.
But Zhao Xu stopped them.
"My dear friends, please stay."
Brother Zhong Jianzhong bowed quickly: "What are the officials' orders?"
Zhao Xu was also dressed at this time.
He walked up to the two ministers and said: "My dear friends, you have been by my side and have served me for some time."
"I would like to ask, my dear friends, would you like to go and exercise along the edge?"
Brothers Zhong Jianzhong looked at each other, and Zhong Jianzhong immediately said: "I only obey His Majesty's orders in everything I do."
Zhao Xu laughed and said: "That's it. Let the two dear ladies prepare themselves. I will issue an order to the Privy Council to choose a mission for the two dear ladies in Xihe."
The two brothers Zhong Jianzhong knelt down and worshiped: "Your Majesty's kindness in promoting me will be hard to repay with hundreds of lives."
Zhao Xu smiled and said to them: "The two dear friends are the people around me. When they come to the edge, they represent my face."
"I also ask you, my dearest friends, not to disappoint me."
The brothers of the Zhong family immediately bowed again: "If you bring shame to the official family and do not serve the court, I will die to apologize!"
Zhao Xu looked at them and nodded slightly: "I believe it!"
These two brothers are famous generals who have been tested by history.
Moreover, he was still a figure who was tricked to death by Zhao Ji and his son, but could still make some achievements in the cracks.
Of course Zhao Xu believed them.
However, Zhao Xu's words of "my letter" directly shut down brother Zhong Jianzhong's brain.
After a long time, they came back to their senses and bowed their heads again.
There is no need to say anything else.
One sentence from the official: My letter is enough!
You treat me as a nobleman of the country, and I will repay you as a nobleman of the country!
What's more, officials still go out of their way to show kindness and treat the virtuous and corporal.
If they brothers can't make some achievements yet.
That's when it's time to die.
…
Watching the Zhong brothers go away, Zhao Xu licked his tongue.
Soon, Xihe will start a war.
Before the war, it is a good choice to send the brothers from the Zhong family to gain experience.
After the first battle, brothers from Zhong Jianzhong and Zhong Shishi can be promoted to ambassadors.
If he becomes the ambassador, he can return to Beijing and serve as the commander of the imperial army.
This can be considered a plan for the future.
Generals Xi and Feng both grow old.
The younger generation needs someone to step up.
Planting brothers is the best choice.
"Everyone..." Feng Jing appeared next to Zhao Xu and called in a low voice.
Zhao Xu turned around: "Is something wrong?"
Feng Jing hummed, and Zhao Xu led him towards the depths of the garden.
Others know their own interests and stay far away.
Feng Jing bent over and tried to keep his body lower than Zhao Xu's height.
"Everyone, today's Bianjing Newspaper published news that there seems to be torture in Yushitai..."
"Oh?" Zhao Xu smiled, stretched out his hand and said, "Take it and take a look!"
So Feng Jing handed Zhao Xu a copy of the Bianjing Newspaper that he had brought to the palace.
The current Bianjing Newspaper is qualitatively different from the Bianjing Newspaper that Zhao Xu first saw.
First, the paper and ink were replaced.
Not only was Chuchu paper used, but the ink was also changed to a clearer one.
This is Shen Kuo's contribution.
Although this great scientist in the eyes of modern people does not know much about papermaking and printing technology.
But he understands technology and management better.
Under his arrangement, and with the financial, manpower and material support of Zhao Xu, the papermaking process of the Ordnance Manufacturing Bureau was continuously iterated.
Not only have the old Chu paper and other technologies been improved to reduce costs and increase output and quality.
We also began to study the differences in papermaking from various materials and summarized them.
Zhao Xu even handed it over to Shen Kuo to study the project of making paper using cotton as raw material.
This is to prepare for future Jiaozi releases.
The Bianjing Newspaper will naturally have the highest priority in enjoying the relevant technological achievements.
In addition to the paper, the ink is different.
Bianjing Xinbao is much bigger.
From the initial folded tabloid, which was just four palm-sized pieces of tofu, it has now become a large paper with eight pages.
Zhao Xu opened it and took a look, and immediately laughed: "This Tong Guan... is really amazing!"
Feng Jing laughed when he heard this: "Everyone taught me well."
Zhao Xu shook his head and said: "No!"
"I don't have the ability!"
A person who can completely lose his face, let go of his reserve, and perform an unscrupulous performance in a tabloid that the entire Bianjing people read every day. Today he supports it, he opposes it tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, he is a powerful person no matter what time he is.
people.
It can only be said that Tong Guan is worthy of being one of the six thieves.
With this kind of psychological quality, he deserves to be promoted and rich!
Just like the headline on the front page of today's Bianjing Newspaper - The prodigal son returns with no money in return!
What is reported is the story of the growth of the Prince Consort Guo Xianqing under the education of Taixue.
In the report, Tong Guan described Taixue as a holy place that could cleanse away all filth.
He even described Guo Xianqing as a gentleman with upright character but who was deceived by others.
I completely forgot that when the Guo Xianqing incident broke out, the Bianjing New News published a front-page headline for three days in a row, complaining about it endlessly.
Zhao Xu flipped through the tabloid and soon found a brief report in a corner of the eighth page - Yamen Newspaper: Yushi Taichung, there was a faint sound of torture.
Zhao Xu laughed after reading it.
Isn't this the same as the so-called "according to anonymous sources" and "source reports" he saw in modern times?
