Hu Sanniang listened for a while as well.

I kept yawning as I listened.

He took Zhao Fujin and Zhao Fujin to play ball.

Zhao Fujin looked back every few steps.

Her brother has been farming for half a year.

I wonder how they are doing now.

She really wanted to go to the countryside and see for herself.

But she didn't know how to bring it up with Zhao Yuan.

These women,

We don't usually get together.

Several small groups have formed privately.

Zhao Yuan could see it all clearly.

After he finished explaining the principle of the simple pendulum,

Summon the attending eunuch and say,

"Madam Zhao, please have them choose a day to go out of the city for a stroll."

"No need to be too ostentatious,"

"Just bring a squad of guards and a few attendants."

"Yes!"

The eunuch's name was Li Hua.

This is certainly not my real name.

It was a name I adopted after entering the palace.

His position in the old Song Dynasty was "Jiban Xiaodi".

Belonging to the Imperial Attendants Department,

Specifically, they are responsible for running errands.

For example, conveying urgent imperial edicts to the emperor.

Moreover, it belongs to the lowest level of errand-running services.

Those ranked ahead of them include those who serve as attendants, attendants, palace guards, and those who hold official positions.

A slightly rewarding errand-running job.

It had already been snatched up by the other eunuchs.

When it was his turn, it was always trivial matters.

Those he contacted were all unfavored concubines.

But unexpectedly, misfortune turned into blessing.

He actually became a close attendant of the new Liang King.

Unfortunately, although this King Liang was powerful,

However, they did not allow eunuchs to interfere in official business.

Li Hua sighed deeply.

He ran all the way to deliver a message to the Zhao sisters.

"My ladies, the Prince of Liang grants you permission to leave the palace at a chosen time,"

"Take some close attendants and a squad of guards,"

"Don't be too ostentatious."

Zhao Fujin was overjoyed.

He took out some reward money and said,

"Thank you for conveying this message, sir."

Li Hua quickly replied, "I dare not accept such a high-ranking official title."

Although Zhao Yuan implemented various reforms,

But I'm too lazy to change how I address them.

For example, concubines and eunuchs.

It still uses the old name from the Northern Song Dynasty.

Zhao Fujin and Zhao Fujin, these concubines of the Prince of Liang,

Her title was "Lady of a Certain County".

As for "high-ranking officials"

It is a respectful term for a high-ranking eunuch.

There is also a "cabinet head"

It is a respectful term for a mid-level eunuch.

"Zhong Guiren" was a respectful term used by officials outside the court to refer to all eunuchs.

Other similar honorifics include "Chinese Envoy", "Angel", and "People from the Sun's Edge".

Zhao Fujin couldn't wait.

The next morning,

He then took his younger sister and left the palace.

They rode in a carriage.

Bring along a few palace maids and eunuchs.

A group of guards cleared the way.

Zhao Fujin appeared exceptionally excited.

Like a bird released from its cage,

They cheered softly as they looked at the street scenes along the way.

"Keep quiet, lest you tarnish the royal family's reputation," Zhao Fujin reminded them.

Zhao Fujin asked, "On the way back, could we visit the Xiangguo Temple?"

"I heard that the tile houses there have recovered the best,"

"It's very lively both day and night."

Zhao Fujin gave an ambiguous answer.

"Go if you have time after you return to the city."

"My older sister is the best!"

Zhao Fujin hugged his sister.

He burrowed his head into his arms and rubbed against him.

Tokyo native,

They were used to the imperial carriages coming out of the palace.

They might glance at it a few times and then give up.

Only out-of-town business travelers looked at it again and again.

They even inquired about who that important person was.

They soon arrived at the southern suburbs.

Because they missed the winter wheat harvest

Millet and corn were planted early here.

It's harvest season.

This year is another year of floods in the south and drought in the north!

Chapter 1754 Farming Isn't Bad Too

The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River were both hit by floods.

Henan and Hebei, however, have not seen rain for a long time.

It seems that even a change of dynasty doesn't please the heavens.

The corn harvest in the southern suburbs was poor.

Millet, which is more drought-resistant, is still acceptable.

If the drought is even worse next year,

I guess we'll have to grow millet to mitigate the risk.

Millet, that stuff...

Although the output is not high

It is even more drought-resistant than millet.

The car had just arrived outside the village,

Several soldiers came to greet them.

He led them to the former imperial family.

Everywhere you look, there is land being harvested.

Zhao Fujin saw Zhao Huan from a great distance.

The former emperor was wearing brown robes.

Walking through the fields with a basket on my back.

The basket was more than half full of corn.

He was covered in sweat and panting heavily.

His wives and concubines were busy working in the fields.

Endure the small prickles on the corn leaves,

They broke off the ears of corn one by one and threw them into the basket.

Even Zhao Chen, the former King of Liang,

Children who are not yet ten years old,

They also helped out in the cornfield.

“Your Majesty…Brother…” Zhao Fujin called out.

Zhao Huan walked with his head bowed and back bent.

Hearing the shout, he looked up and saw...

A mixture of joy and a touch of sadness.

"Meet Madam."

"I'm carrying something on my back,"

"I dare not give up halfway,"

"Please forgive me for not being able to perform the full ceremony."

"It's alright,"
