I will never be Renzong

Chapter 188 The Son Who Appeared Suddenly
In Chu Palace, Zhao Zhen looked at Zhao Yunrang, then at Zhao Zongshi with a childlike face in his arms, and suddenly remembered that Zhao Yunrang was very good in history, and Song Yingzong Zhao Zongshi was Zhao Yunrang's No. 13 son.

Zhao Zhen didn't want to understand why Zhao Zongshi was born so early, so he said: "Wei County King, please, they are all from my Zhao family, so you don't have to kneel down at every turn. Besides, Zongshi is still a child, it's just a pity. Mother died so early!"

Zhao Zhen suddenly remembered that last year, Zhou Wang Zhao Yuanyan, who was in charge of Zongzheng Temple, had mentioned to him that the concubine of Weijun Wang Zhao Yunrang died of illness.

Seeing this, Zhao Yunrang hurriedly replied: "Report to the official family! Zong Shi was not born to the late Ren family, but to the Tian family who was rewarded by the Queen Mother back then!"

Generally speaking, anyone in the royal family who gave birth to a son would report it to him. However, he rarely asked about the affairs of the Zhao royal family, so he did not know about Zhao Zongshi's birth.

As soon as Zhao Yunrang's words fell, Zhao Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and he took a closer look at Zhao Zongshi in front of him. He could indeed see Tian Xiaoqiu's shadow, but his eyes were a bit like Zhao Zhen's, and a bold thought suddenly rose in Zhao Zhen's mind idea.

"Uncle! Are you the emperor?"

Zhao Zongshi blinked his big eyes and looked up at Zhao Zhen.

"I am usually busy with state affairs, and I have seldom asked about the affairs of the clan. Another day, when I am free, I will definitely let all my nephews enter the palace to show me. The meeting today is fate, and I will reward Zongshi with this jade pendant! "

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen touched his head lightly, then took off a jade pendant from his waist and stuffed it into Zhao Zongshi's hand.

Children are generally curious. Zhao Zongshi took the jade pendant and began to play with it. Seeing this, Zhao Yunrang hurriedly said, "Thank you for your kindness!"

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen wanted to leave, and wanted to go back to the palace to ask someone to go to Zongzheng Temple to check Zhao Zongshi's birth time, but Zhao Yunrang suddenly bowed solemnly: "I have something to report to the official family!"

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen stopped in his tracks, then glanced at Zhao Yunrang, and said, "What's the matter with Duke Wei! But please tell me straight! This place is all descendants of the Zhao family, and there are no outsiders!"

When Zhao Yunrang saw this, he said: "Guan family! The King of Chu is the eldest son of Emperor Taizong, and he has made great contributions to the country. According to the title system established by the government last year, after the death of King Chu, a son will be selected to succeed him, but the title will be Reducing the third rank, you can only be a marquis. In this way, anyone who is a prince, the first generation prince, the second generation marquis, the third generation viscount, the fourth generation will be lost to everyone. The King of Chu has served the country, so I hope that the official will be Being able to bestow grace on the bereaved son of King Chu will reassure the royal family!"

All present were from the royal family of the Zhao family, and no one cared about the glory and wealth of their descendants, so Zhao Yunrang's words immediately refuted the favor of everyone, and they all spoke in agreement!

Zhao Zhen frowned, and after a long time he said: "I haven't thought about this matter well. I will think about it carefully when I go back and make plans again! Maoze, get off and go back to the palace!"

"The minister waits to send the official home!"

In the Chongzheng Hall, Zhao Zhen was looking at all the records of Weijun Wangfu brought by the servant from Zongzheng Temple. He favored Tian Xiaoqiu in March of the first year of Tiansheng, and Zhao Zongshi was born in January of the second year of Tiansheng, and According to the records of the imperial doctor who went to deliver the baby, Zhao Zongshi was born prematurely, so the child seen today is Zhao Zhen's own son.

From the documents he brought, Zhao Zhen also learned that Zhao Yunrang, king of Wei County, had four sons, but since Tian Xiaoqiu entered the mansion, one of his sons died of typhoid fever every year. Only Zhao Zongshi survived by chance, and Zhao Yunrang's The health is getting worse and worse. Since Tian Xiaoqiu gave birth to Zhao Zongshi, Zhao Yunrang has nothing to do, and the princess passed away last year.

Originally, Zhao Yunrang was also serving as the Criminal Division of Guangdong Road, but after learning that the princess had passed away, he went to Zhazi, resigned from the post, and returned to Kaifeng, intending to keep Zhao Zongshi's last son no matter what.

Zhao Zhen put Tian Xiaoqiu next to Zhao Yunrang at the beginning, in fact, he wanted to be a secret and keep buried, but unexpectedly, Tian Xiaoqiu was really ruthless.

Zhang Mao, the servant, came in hurriedly and said: "Report to the official family! See you, King Zhou!"

"Xuan!"

"I pay my respects to the officials!"

Zhao Yuanyan came in and hurriedly saluted Zhao Zhen.

"Uncle Eight Emperors, please get up quickly! Come and give me a seat!"

Zhao Zhen suddenly stepped forward and helped Zhao Yuanyan up!
"Officials! Courtesy cannot be discarded!"

Zhao Yuanyan replied respectfully.

After the two were seated, Zhao Zhen just smiled and said, "Is the Eighth Emperor's uncle entering the palace for Prince Chu's heir?"

Seeing this, Zhao Yuanyan hurriedly said: "Officials! My Zhao family has not been prosperous. I know that the title system formulated by the officials is to suppress those civil servants. But the King of Chu has made great contributions to the country. I ask the officials to treat the King of Chu favorably." One line!"

Zhao Zhen couldn't help laughing, saying that the king of Chu has made great contributions to the country is a false statement. Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Chu, went crazy because of the suicide of the eight sage kings. Nothing can be done to the country.

Although the king of Chu did not make great contributions to the country, he did make great contributions to Emperor Zhenzong. If it were not for his madness, the throne would not be passed on to Song Zhenzong, and naturally there would be nothing wrong with Zhao Zhen!
The Eight Great Kings had something to say in their words, so Zhao Zhen could hear the implication, so Zhao Zhen said: "I understand what the Eight Kings mean. The King of Chu is the eldest son of Emperor Taizong, and he has made great contributions to the country. His eldest son, Zhao Yunsheng, was granted the title of first-class Chen Guogong, his second son, Zhao Yunfeng, and his third son, Zhao Yuncheng, were all added as viscounts. Of course, if he is really talented, he can also be promoted to a noble in the future!"

The royal family of the Song Dynasty could hold official positions, and it was not like the Ming Dynasty, which completely treated the royal family as pigs.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen said again: "I plan to add a new rule to the title system. For those who have made great contributions to the country, after death, the title will be reduced by one level every generation. Those who have no achievements or ordinary talents, as long as there is nothing too big Negligence, after death, the title will be reduced by two ranks!"

Zhao Yuanyan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. The reason why he entered the palace to meet Zhao Zhen was also entrusted by the clan members, because apart from him, no one in the clan seemed to be able to speak to Zhao Zhen.

Seeing that Zhao Yuanyan had no objection, Zhao Zhen said, "I intend to reopen Zishantang. The descendants of the royal family are not divided into concubines and concubines. Anyone aged 7 to 16 must study at the Royal Academy. After reaching the age of 16, they must accept Examination, those who pass the examination will be able to become nobles in the future, and those who fail the assessment will be deprived of the right to become nobles. The reason why I did this is to make my Zhao family an example for all people, so that my Zhao family will last forever!"

When Zhao Zhen said this, he couldn't help frowning, and then said: "I'm just worried that the clan will not understand my good intentions!"

Seeing this, Zhao Yuanyan hurriedly bowed his fists and said: "The actions of the officials are all for the sake of my great Song Dynasty. The officials are determined to cultivate talents for the royal family, and the ministers will fully support them. Please rest assured for the time being. There are ministers on the clan's side." , no one dares to make any troubles!"

"With Uncle Eight Emperors here, I can rest assured!"
