I will never be Renzong

Chapter 146

"What's your name?"

In the Chongzheng Hall, Zhao Zhen looked at a barbarian woman dressed very boldly and asked with a smile.

The barbarian woman didn't answer Zhao Zhen, but looked at him with a pair of hateful eyes, as if she wished to tear Zhao Zhen apart, but she was being tied up by five flowers, and even though she was struggling hard, it was futile.

"Di Qing! Does she not understand what I'm saying?"

Zhao Zhen said to Di Qing who was standing by.

Di Qing clasped his fists and said, "Officials! The barbarians on the island speak roughly the same words as the locals on Fujian Road. This barbarian girl is also the favorite daughter of the tribal chief. Presumably she can understand official Chinese!"

"I didn't expect there to be such a beautiful woman in that barren land, not bad!"

Zhao Zhen circled around the barbarian woman.

"I ask you again, what is your name? If you don't tell me, I will order the execution of all barbarian prisoners!"

Zhao Zhen pinched her chin and threatened.

"My name is Aya!"

Hearing what Zhao Zhen said, the barbarian woman's eyes were a little flustered, and she hurriedly replied in her not-so-fluent Da Song official dialect.

"I thought Xia Song gave me a mute! Thrush, take her down to freshen up and change clothes. This set of animal skins smells after wearing it for so long."

Zhao Zhen sniffed his nose and said.

"It's an official!"

Huamei hurriedly responded, and then two powerful rough envoys walked in and carried the bound barbarian woman down.

"Di Qing, it's been a long time since you left, I haven't sparred with anyone, come and accompany me to practice swordsmanship!"

Zhao Zhen patted Di Qing on the shoulder, and then walked out of the hall.

Outside Chongzheng Hall, a servant had already prepared two wooden swords. These two wooden swords were made of iron and wood, so they were about the same weight as ordinary swords. Zhao Zhen handed one of them to Di Qing.

"Di Qing! You must use all your strength for a while, otherwise I will marry that barbarian girl to you!"

As Zhao Zhen spoke, he picked up the wooden sword and made a few gestures.

"Officials! This savage girl is the number one beauty in Taiwan. Only officials can be worthy of such a beauty. I'm a martial artist, and I dare not touch her!"

Di Qing suddenly knelt down on one knee to invite him.

Zhao Zhen glanced at Di Qing's handsome face, and then said with a smile: "You are the most beautiful man in Song Dynasty, isn't it a good match for this barbarian's most beautiful woman?"

"The officials are joking! I have committed crimes in my early years, and I have tattoos on my face. I am an ugly person!"

Di Qing hurriedly replied.

The tattoo on Di Qing's face is near the forehead on the left side. From the aesthetic point of view of the ancients, this tattoo is indeed disfigured. After all, the body, hair and skin are inherited from the parents, but if it is placed in the 21st century, it will have a very manly appearance. temperament.

Zhao Zhen originally wanted to ask Di Qing why he was unwilling to marry the most beautiful woman in the barbarian tribe, but suddenly he remembered that in the history books, Di Qing suffered a lot because of his low background. Relying on the military merits gained by charging on the battlefield and narrowly escape death, he finally became a privy minister. However, it was precisely because of his low background and disfigurement that he was always shunned by civil servants, and finally died in depression.

"Get up! You don't have to marry her if you don't want to. I won't force you, but you must give me your best later, otherwise I will pick a woman from a noble family and give you a marriage!"

"Watch out I'm coming!"

Zhao Zhen suddenly yelled, then picked up his sword and stabbed at Di Qing who was kneeling on the ground.

Seeing this, Di Qing hurriedly picked up the wooden sword on the ground and wanted to block Zhao Zhen's sword light, but because Zhao Zhen used all his strength, Di Qing was a little unprepared, and the wooden sword was knocked down one meter behind.

Zhao Zhen didn't mean to stop, instead he held the wooden sword tightly with both hands, and then used all his strength to stab Di Qing again.

Seeing that Di Qing was about to be unable to hide, suddenly Di Qing put his left hand on the ground, and then did a beautiful backflip, dodging the killing move, while the other hand took the opportunity to pick up the wooden sword to block it. Zhao Zhen's next round of offensive was blocked.

"This is my Lord Wu An of the Song Dynasty! I will not show mercy!"

After [-] to [-] rounds, the two should fight hard, and then retreat three steps each.

Zhao Zhen was already sweating profusely, panting heavily, but Di Qing's face was not flushed and his heart was beating, only slight beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Di Qing, eat my last killer move!"

Zhao Zhen suddenly clenched the wooden sword with both hands, and then spun around, intending to use inertia to make himself faster.

"Brother Six~"

But at this moment, a long-lost sweet voice sounded, Zhao Zhen hurriedly looked for the voice, and saw the young Taoist nun smiling at him.

"Royal sister!"

Zhao Zhen was distracted, and the wooden sword in his hand struck straight at the woman, and he also lost his strength and staggered to the ground.

"Ah~"

The little Taoist nun looked at the sword flying towards her, her face turned pale with fright, she forgot to run away, and hurriedly closed her eyes.

"careful!"

At this critical moment, Di Qing suddenly threw out the wooden sword in his hand, then quickly ran towards the little Taoist nun, throwing the stunned little Taoist nun to the ground.

"Ping-pong!" A sound sounded, and the two wooden swords collided and landed at their feet!

"Are you okay, miss?"

Di Qing looked at the little Taoist nun who was pressed under her and said.

Just now, Di Qing moved very quickly, so the little nun's hat flew out, revealing her flowing hair, delicate face, and even a little baby fat.

After the little Taoist nun came back to her senses, she found that she was being pressed down by a handsome man in military uniform. The man propped his hands on the ground and looked at her worriedly.

A man's unique breath came, and the little Taoist nun's delicate face was suddenly flushed with a blush.

"General! Your armor hurts me!"

The little nun turned her head to one side, closed her eyes and said softly.

Seeing this, Di Qing pushed his hands down and stood up.

Zhao Zhen also ran over in a hurry at this time, helped the little Taoist nun on the ground, and then asked worriedly: "Sister! Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

"Brother Six! I'm fine, thanks to this young general, but I don't know how to call him!"

The little nun blushed and looked at the heroic Di Qing.

"Royal sister, this is Wu'an Lord Di Qing, who just came back from Taiwan!"

"Di Qing, let me introduce you, this is Princess Wei, my own sister!"

Zhao Zhen introduced them to the two of them.

Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng had two daughters in total. The eldest daughter was born to Concubine Li Chen. She was a compatriot with Zhao Zhen, but died very early. After Zhao Zhen ascended the throne, she was named Princess Huiguo.

The second daughter was born to Concubine Du Gui, named Zhao Zhichong, who was a Taoist priest and practiced Taoism with her mother Du Shi since childhood. After Zhao Zhen ascended the throne, she was named Princess Wei.

"I don't know that the princess is here, so I offend you, and I hope that the princess will punish you!"

Seeing this, Di Qing hurriedly bowed to Princess Wei.

"Please, general, if it wasn't for the general who rescued me just now, I'm afraid I would have been hit by the wooden sword long ago, and it would be too late for me to thank the general! How could I punish the general!"

Princess Wei said hurriedly.

"Okay! Di Qing, go down and rest first!"

Zhao Zhen said to Di Qing.

"Officials! Chen Chen resigns!"

Seeing this, Di Qing saluted and retreated.
Outside the Chongzheng Hall, Princess Wei looked at Di Qing's back for a long time, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Royal sister! Isn't Di Qing tall, mighty, and handsome!"

Zhao Zhen asked suddenly.

"Yes!"

Princess Wei couldn't help but reply.

"do you like him?"

Zhao Zhen asked suddenly.

"happiness"

Princess Wei Guo suddenly realized that something was wrong, her face blushed, she lowered her head and said nothing.

"Hehe! The imperial sister has grown up and knows how to be shy!"

Zhao Zhen joked.

"Brother Six~"

Princess Wei grabbed Zhao Zhen's hand and refused to obey.

Zhao Zhen took a look at his sister's daoist robe, and then said to the maid standing not far away: "Take the princess down and change into nice clothes, imperial sister, your daoist robe is really an eyesore!"

"Is there? Brother Six! This robe is newly made!"

Princess Wei said hurriedly.

"It's better to change it! You must have something to tell me when you enter the palace this time, and I will wait for you at the lotus pond in Yanfu Palace!"

Zhao Zhen said with a smile, and then motioned for the maid to take her down to change into a palace attire.

"Xiaohe just showed her sharp horns, and dragonflies have already stood on her head!"

In Yanfu Palace, in a pavilion, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but read while looking at the lotus in bud in the lotus pond.

"Sixth brother!"

A sweet voice came, and Zhao Zhen hurriedly looked for the voice, and saw the royal sister Zhao Miner Xi wearing a blue tube top, with a slightly raised chest, a pink trousers on the outside, and a blue bra on her lower body. The blue slender skirt, coupled with its small and exquisite figure, gives people a feeling of Xiaojiabiyu.

"I haven't seen you for two or three years. The imperial girl has become more and more beautiful. It's really a young girl in the royal family!"

Zhao Zhen looked at the royal sister Zhao Min'er who was walking slowly and said.

"No way! Brother Six will make fun of me!"

Zhao Min'er blushed hurriedly and said.

"That's right! Royal sister, I don't know what is the matter with you entering the palace this time? But what does Concubine Du want to tell me?"

Zhao Min'er has been practicing with her mother Du Shi in the female Taoist temple outside Kaifeng City, and rarely enters the palace if she has nothing to do.

Seeing this, Zhao Min'er quickly took out a small blue porcelain bottle from her arms and handed it to Zhao Zhen.

"what is this?"

Zhao Zhen hurriedly took it, then opened it and smelled it, a strange fragrance came, and he immediately felt refreshed.

"Sixth brother! My mother said: Sixth brother's body is not good if his bones are small, so my mother has searched for folk prescriptions, and a elixir made from 36 kinds of precious medicinal materials. This elixir can strengthen the body!"

Zhao Zhen couldn't help being stunned, thinking that this elixir must be made from heavy metals such as mercury. Although he is already invulnerable to all poisons, this thing is really hard to swallow!

"Mother knows that the sixth brother's surname is neither Buddhism nor Taoism, so she asked me to bring the formula!"

As he spoke, he took out another recipe and handed it to Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen opened it and felt relieved when he saw that they were all precious medicinal materials.

"Oops~"

Zhao Min'er suddenly called out.

"What's wrong, sister?"

Zhao Zhen asked hurriedly.

"Brother Huang, there were originally two bottles, but I left behind the most important bottle!"

Zhao Min'er suddenly said with a sad face.

"Eh? Why is there another bottle? What is that bottle for?"

Zhao Zhen thought to himself, wouldn't it be enough to have a strong body?

"Brother Huang, there is also a red porcelain bottle. Mother said that bottle is specially for men."

A carriage in Kaifeng was heading towards the palace under the escort of the guards. The person sitting in it was none other than Zhao Miner's biological mother, Du Shi.

Du Shi, whose real name is Du Qiongzhen, is the niece of Song Zhenzong's grandmother, Empress Zhaoxian. Before Song Zhenzong was the prince, Du Shi was his concubine.

When Emperor Zhenzong of Song Dynasty Zhao Heng was in power, the control over the use of gold-selling techniques to make clothing was very strict.

Once when Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty returned to the palace from Dongfeng, Du Qiongzhen still wore such clothes to welcome him.After Zhenzong Zhao Heng saw it, he was furious and ordered Du Qiongzhen to become a female Taoist priest and enter the Dongzhen Palace (the imitation Dongzhen Palace outside Kaifeng City).

The Song Dynasty believed in Taoism, and Zhao Qingyu, the sixth daughter of Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi, practiced in Dongzhen Palace with Du Shi. Song Zhenzong, as an older brother, occasionally went to Dongzhen Palace to visit his sister, and happened to meet Du Shi.

Perhaps it was the beauties in the palace who caused aesthetic fatigue. Song Zhenzong suddenly felt that the Du family in Taoist robes was very charming, so he stayed in Dongzhen Palace.

Although Mrs. Du became a nun as a Taoist nun, she was Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng's woman from beginning to end. Naturally, she did not dare to disobey Song Zhenzong's request. After some lingering, Mrs. Du was pregnant within two months.So in 1011 AD, the Du family gave birth to Song Zhenzong's second daughter.

At the beginning of the first year of Tiansheng, the princess Zhao Zhichong fell seriously ill and was about to die. After learning about it, Zhao Zhen ordered someone to send a life-prolonging pill. Zhao Zhichong's life was not only saved, but also regained a new life.

Seeing this memorial, Zhao Zhen asked Liu E to change his name to Zhao Min'er.

Since then, Mrs. Du has been very grateful to Zhao Zhen. By chance, she got two chapters of prescriptions, one for strengthening the body and the other for strengthening the yang. So she collected all kinds of precious medicinal materials and refined two bottles of pills. It was packed in blue porcelain vases and red porcelain vases, and asked her daughter to bring it into the palace to present to Zhao Zhen, but she didn't want her daughter to leave behind the red porcelain vase, so she brought it by herself in a carriage.

When the carriage drove into Zhuque Street in Kaifeng City, someone's brat was setting off firecrackers, and then the horses were frightened, ran around, and threw the driver off.

Immediately, everyone at the scene dispersed, screaming everywhere, and the guards were also dumbfounded. The person sitting inside was the concubine of the late emperor and the biological mother of the current Princess Wei, so they were desperate to control the panicked horses, but they were all thrown away. down.

Just when the guards were thrown to the ground and the carriage was about to rush towards the Bianhe River, Di Qing, who was riding towards the military camp, happened to see it. Then he slapped the horse on its back, jumped up suddenly, and landed on the out-of-control horse. Behind the horses.

After struggling for a while, the horse was finally successfully controlled by Di Qing, and Du Shi in the carriage was also terrified.

The leader of the guard hurriedly came forward to pay homage: "The villain is the guard of Dongzhen Palace, escorting Concubine Du into the palace, what is the name of this general?"

Seeing this, Di Qing got off his horse just now, then knelt down on one knee towards the carriage and said, "My lord, Wu'an Lord Di Qing, I pay my respects to the empress dowager!"

Mrs. Du did not come out, but said through the curtain: "Mr. Wu An, please, thank you Mr. Wu An for saving me today. The Ai family will talk about it with the officials!"

"Go back to the concubine! This is a matter of little effort, and I can't be thanked by the concubine! I have to rush back to the barracks, so I will leave!"

Di Qing saluted, then got on his horse and galloped away.

"Wu'an Lord Di Qing?"

Du Shi muttered in a low voice.
