Wei and Jin cooks

Madam Wang was so angry that she fell ill in bed and stayed there for half a month before she recovered. Zhao Changyu initially advised her, "Why bother, it's just a plum tree."

Seeing that she cried when she heard about the plum tree, she changed her words: "The tree has been cut down. If you really like to eat it, the stump is still there. I will look back and think about ways to repair it. As long as it can be planted, it will be restored in a few years." You can eat plums now.”

Lady Wang cried even more sadly.

She knew how much her husband loved this plum tree. He was such a stingy man who loved making money. The whole garden had peonies and peach blossoms in spring, roses, roses, and lotus flowers in summer, chrysanthemums and various fruits in autumn, and plum blossoms in winter. , lotus roots, and even his mother-in-law’s favorite orchid. He would sell everything he could, except this plum tree, which he never sold out.

I eat it myself and my family, and the excess is made into dried fruits for winter.

Such a good tree was cut down by her brother.

Not only did Madam Wang feel guilty, she also felt distressed and felt very sorry for her husband.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Zhao Changyu could only hire a famous doctor for her, and at the same time tell her some outside things to make her happy.

Alas, who knows? Not only the plum tree was cut down, but also how much money was spent on hiring a famous doctor for his wife and taking medicine to recuperate her illness.

He put all the debt on his brother-in-law. Although he didn't say anything outside, he gave the housekeeper a death order and his brother-in-law was not allowed to come to the house in the future.

As long as he comes, the door will be closed to keep the danger out.

At the same time, he also realized that there were too few servants in the mansion to block the danger.

This time it was my brother-in-law who came to visit, and the target was just a plum tree. What kind of traitor or political enemy would he be next?

If they come to the door with a knife, what can the old, weak, women and children at home do to stop them?

Therefore, Zhao Changyu, who had always abided by the law and kept himself clean, stretched out his tentacles for the first time and began to explore the cultivation base.

Buqu, a private soldier.

This is illegal, but it is common among all aristocratic families.

The Zhao family does not.

Because before Zhao Changyu, the Zhao family was very poor. They could not even support a few servants, let alone private soldiers. Zhao Changyu's mother and grandmother did the housework by themselves, and there were only one or two old servants in the family to help. Just doing laundry and doing some rough work.

But now Zhao Changyu is rich, and he has several caravans in his hands. He already has the foundation of a escort team, but he has not developed it into a group.

After this time, Zhao Changyu began to have the idea that in order to protect his family and family, he still had to use some force.

As a result, he began to look for ways to cultivate a song that belonged to the Zhao family.

He is a very well-planned and extremely smart person. He thinks about what kind of club he needs. Once he determines it, he plans to cultivate it towards the goal.

Because the emperor refused to change the prince, two days ago, the prince's teacher Wei Guan was drunk. When he was shooting an arrow in the school field, the arrow whizzed past the prince's neck and almost killed the prince. Wei Guan was suspended from his post. , shut up and think about your mistakes.

Wei Guan said that he was drunk and his eyes were hazy, but he saw it wrongly, but those who were interested knew that Wei Guan really wanted to shoot the prince to death.

If the prince really takes the throne, the country will be almost finished.

Putting aside the many princes and princes of the Sima family, and the many ministers from aristocratic families in the court, who would believe a fool?

If a fool is in office, will everyone try to trick him into getting benefits?

But a fool has no ability to distinguish. He can already imagine what the country will become in the future.

Fortunately, Princess Jia is smart.

However, if she becomes the Crown Princess and fails, I am afraid she will also fail.

Although they had only met a few times, and the princess was very good at hiding things, Zhao Changyu still saw her ambition and big-heartedness. If the country fell into her hands, even if it could be stable for a period of time, it would just accumulate conflicts. That’s all.

Then it will be up to her to see who is better in the game between her and the courtiers and royal family.

Now I just hope that the emperor's grandson will grow up quickly and the emperor will live longer. By then, the emperor's grandson will supervise the country and may be able to avoid this disaster.

The plan was like this, Zhao Changyu had to prepare for another situation, and Bu Qu had to prepare for this.

Zhao Changyu thought of the Xiongnu and various tribes who were recuperating in the north, and decided that his tribe should combine movement and movement, with both the defensive capabilities of infantry and the mobility of cavalry.

Once the second situation does happen, I can leave Luoyang faster and return to my hometown.

After all, Xiping is my hometown and my base camp. It would be nice to go back there.

Since he wants to make Xiping his base camp, he must also start operations in Xiping.

With this thought, Zhao Changyu made a huge plan. Within half a month while his wife was recovering from illness, he also made ten brief suggestions for the future development of the Zhao family and made a thick stack of plans.

After thinking about it, he roughly summarized the plan and copied it into two letters, one to Zhao Zhongyu who was far away, and one to his brother Zhao Song in Xiping.

Zhao Song is the one he values ​​the most among the many cousins. Although he is not very smart like Zhao Zhongyu, he is considered to be the smarter one among the many children of the Zhao family.

The most important thing is that he values ​​friendship and has the ability to execute.

Zhao Changyu wanted to stay in Luoyang, and Zhao Zhongyu was sent abroad, so Xiping could only be handed over to him.

Zhao Changyu decided to build Zhao's Wubao from now on.

He wants to build high walls bit by bit around Zhaojiacun, covering most of the fields, and build watchtowers to build Zhaojiacun into an indestructible castle.

If one day the country is really in chaos, they can return to Xiping and fight in the fort together with their tribesmen to preserve themselves.

This requires a lot of manpower and material resources.

Zhao Changyu doesn't have enough money now, so he still needs to make more money.

At the same time, the training of the tribe will also be divided into two parts. One part is placed in Xiping, specifically to protect Zhao's Wubao; the other part is placed in Luoyang. They are only loyal to Zhao Changyu, the direct branch of the Zhao family. Once an accident occurs, their mission will be It is to protect the direct descendants of the Zhao family and escort them back to Xiping.

Zhao Changyu began to pay attention to the knights in Luoyang and nearby areas, as well as the refugees who wandered to Luoyang, as well as the orphans and street children who could be seen everywhere on the streets.

He decided to divide the troops into three stages of training, bit by bit, to train them into the most loyal guards.

He is still young and he feels he has plenty of time to prepare.

How could he still live for thirty or forty years? Forty years is enough time to replace three generations. The second generation can be called a loyal domestic slave, let alone the third generation?

So he was full of confidence, and he hoped that the emperor could live another twenty or thirty years.

But who would have thought that the emperor would die so quickly and suddenly? He was only fifty-five years old and died suddenly of illness.

Zhao Changyu thought carefully about it later. He believed that Emperor Wu, who was good at martial arts, died of illness because he was too dissolute in his later years.

Sure enough, only by restraining oneself and practicing propriety and paying attention to health can one live a long life.

well.

Let him die. Before he died, he divided the kings and divided the prince's rights and territory among the princes and princes. Didn't this encourage their ambitions?

It would be better to just change to a prince. Sure enough, old people tend to become faint. Zhao Changyu kept this conclusion in his heart and reminded himself all the time to avoid following in the footsteps of his late emperor.
