Emperor Renzong of the Great Song Dynasty

Di Qing opened her mouth wide in surprise: "This... I... Caomin..."

For a while I didn't know how to answer.

The emperor let himself be his cousin?

but……

But he is obviously two years younger than himself!

Zhao Yiyi smiled and said: "You may not know my life experience. I am not the biological son of the first emperor, but the son of the eight sage kings who are now called, and my mother and concubine are the eighth princess Di Niangniang. Only because the first emperor had no children, I came here to inherit. Tong. Niang Niang's surname is Di, and your surname is also Di, which is also predestined. How about it, do you want to be Niang Niang's nephew and my cousin?"

Di Qing hesitated for a long time: "The grass people don't understand what His Majesty means."

Zhao Yiyi said: "When I saw you for the first time, I felt that you were not a thing in the pool. Sooner or later, you would soar into the sky. Since you are determined to join the army and protect your family and the country, I will show you the way. Do you know Di Niangniang?" As an aunt, you can justifiably live in Nanqing Palace. I will visit famous teachers for you and teach you how to be a general. After you finish your studies, you can serve me."

After hearing this, Di Qing nodded, then shook his head again.

Zhao Yiyi wondered, "What does this mean?"

Di Qing said: "The grass-roots must recognize Lady Di as their aunt, and they must serve His Majesty after they finish their studies. But the grass-roots should not live in the Nanqing Palace."

Zhao Yiyi looked up at the magnificent main entrance of Nanqing Palace: "You don't like this decoration style?"

Di Qing firmly said: "The ability to be a general is not learned from living in the Nanqing Palace with the master, but is learned step by step from a young soldier on the battlefield. Caomin heard that Lai Guogong was training recruits in the Imperial Army camp , Your Majesty, please allow Cao Min to follow Duke Lai."

He seemed to have thought of something, and added: "Cao Min admires Duke Lai as a man, but His Majesty is kind to Cao Min, and Cao Min is determined to die for His Majesty. Cao Min will only be loyal to His Majesty in his life."

Zhao Yiyi hurriedly laughed and said: "What are you talking about? Duke Lai is my teacher. There is no distinction between you and me between master and apprentice. What's more, the famous teacher I planned to find for you at the beginning is Duke Lai. Since you have your own plans, of course it would be great."

He had long planned to recruit Di Qing and ask Kou Zhun to be his teacher. After all, looking at the entire Song Dynasty, there was probably only one person who was good at martial arts and martial arts to be the teacher of Xingjun Wuqu.

It's just that he originally planned to let Kou Zhun come to his house as a tutor, but since Di Qing was willing to join the Forbidden Army, Zhao Yiyi didn't stop him.

Anyway, he wasn't afraid that the collusion between Di Qing and Kou Zhun would be bad for him.

Even if he doesn't believe in Wu Quxing's character, he should believe in the full value of morality and loyalty.

He chose Di Qing, and Di Qing also chose him, so naturally he would not betray.

"Let's go and see your aunt."

The walking chariot stopped outside the Nanqing Palace, and Zhao Yiyi took Liu En and Di Qing in to find Niangniang Di.

Di Niangniang has recently become obsessed with worshiping the Buddha, she does not live in the main hall, but only chant scriptures all day long in the Buddhist hall of the side hall.

Zhao Yiyi guessed that she should be praying for Concubine Li.

Di Niangniang and Concubine Li met each other when they were young, and they have a very strong friendship. Otherwise, it would be impossible to raise Concubine Li's son at the risk of family ruin, and it would be impossible for Concubine Li to voluntarily give up her respected status as the emperor's biological mother to help Concubine Li mother and son get along with each other after Concubine Li returned to court. recognize.

There was a fire in the cold palace a few days ago, outsiders didn't know that Concubine Li had faked her death and left the palace, they only knew that the fire killed everyone in the cold palace.

Naturally, it also includes Li Niangniang, who gave birth to the evildoer more than ten years ago.

Di Niangniang felt sad in her heart, but she didn't dare to let others know, so she had to chant scriptures every day in the name of praying for the emperor, hoping for a smooth next life for Concubine Li.

It will be late when Zhao Yiyi arrives at Nanqing Palace, which is when Di Niangniang is doing evening classes.

When she heard that Zhao Yiyi was coming, Di Niangniang didn't meet him immediately, but asked Zhao Yiyi to wait in the main hall first, and then come out to meet her after she finished paying respects to the Buddha.

Zhao Yiyi just sat down in the main hall for a while, when he heard a burst of messy footsteps rushing towards him, accompanied by a shout of surprise: "Second brother! Second brother!"

As soon as he raised his head, Zhao Yunxi rushed straight into the palace door like a cannonball: "Second Brother! It's really you! You're back!"

Zhao Yiyi got up to greet him: "Brother, slow down, don't fall."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yunxi slipped and fell to the ground with a "touch". He didn't complain of pain, got up quickly, and rushed towards Zhao Yiyi: "Second brother! I miss you so much!"

Zhao Yiyi caught Zhao Yunxi who rushed over: "Brother, Yiyi misses you too."

Zhao Yunxi hugged Zhao Yiyi tightly: "Second brother, you are finally home, I'm going to see you in the palace, my father and mother won't let me, I miss you so much..."

As he spoke, he choked up.

It had been a long, long time since he had been so close to his second brother.Usually, when the royal family gave banquets, the second elder brother would stay far away from him and would not even look at him.He wanted to talk to his second brother, but he could only whisper it to himself after returning home.

Zhao Yiyi freed up a hand to wipe his tears: "Brother, don't cry, don't cry."

Zhao Yunxi wiped away his tears, and was just about to tell his second brother about the interesting things that happened in the palace after he left, when he heard a scold: "Presumptuous! Don't let Your Majesty go!"

Di Niangniang walked over quickly, pulled Zhao Yunxi away, and knelt down to Zhao Yiyi: "The dog has nothing to do with offending Your Majesty, Your Majesty please forgive me."

Zhao Yunxi was dumbfounded: "Aunt..."

Niangniang Di didn't look at him, but knelt quietly, waiting for Zhao Yiyi to speak.

Zhao Yiyi sighed and helped Empress Di: "Please get up quickly. My son and I are flesh and blood brothers after all. Once we meet, my son's true feelings will be revealed, how can we restrain him with etiquette. Anyway, this is the backyard of the house, let's just talk about it." Brother, regardless of monarch or subject. The empress is my mother, and the son is my elder brother, please get up."

Only then did Niang Niang get up: "My wife would like to obey the holy edict."

Zhao Yiyi asked Niangniang Di to sit with him on the upper seat in the hall, Niangniang Di refused again and again, and then sat down gently, still bowing, ready to leave the seat at any time to salute.

Zhao Yunxi stood beside her, no longer crying, and remained silent.

Zhao Yiyi said: "I came to find my mother today to ask my mother something."

Di Niangniang said: "Your Majesty, even if you give orders, the courtiers will know everything and say everything."

Zhao Yiyi said: "I heard that the Di family from which my mother was born is an old-fashioned family. There were quite a few natives in the Jin and Shan generations. Today I met a person from the Di family in Fenzhou. I wonder if I can ask for a look at the family tree of the Di family. I'm afraid." He is the same clan of the empress."

Di Niangniang said: "I don't know where this person is now?"

Zhao Yiyi called Di Qing forward: "It's him."

Di Qing had just come out of the dungeon at this time, before she had time to wash and change her clothes, Niang Niang didn't dislike her, she asked him to come forward, carefully observe his face, and suddenly asked: "What is the name of your great-grandfather?"

Di Qing was at a loss, a small family, living is not easy enough, how could he know what his great-grandfather's name was!

Zhao Yiyi winked at him, indicating that he could just make up one.

Di Qing said: "Great-grandfather kept it secret."

Di Niangniang burst into tears: "Yes, that's right!"

"My wife once heard from my father that my grandfather had a brother who was lost during the war and has never been found again. Before his death, his grandfather still remembered it, so that future generations will keep it in mind and look for this lost brother. Blood relatives."

She caressed Di Qing's face: "I can't be wrong again, look at the eyebrows and eyes, they are almost carved out of the same mold as my grandfather. My good boy, you are finally back. It will be easy for us to find!"

After speaking, she hugged Di Qing and began to cry.

Zhao Yiyi couldn't help sighing, look, what is the quality of a professional actor, like Zhao Yunxi and his ilk, I really have to learn from his mother.

After the play of confession was over, Zhao Yiyi entrusted Di Qing to Niang Niang, and made an appointment to come back in a few days to arrange a place for his new cousin. Before that, Di Qing temporarily lived in Nanqing Palace.

That's right, Di Qing became Zhao Yiyi's cousin in the end.

When Di Niangniang asked him how old he was this year, he said he was 11 years old.

If the emperor wants to be his cousin, let him be.

Anyway, he was malnourished since he was a child, and he was short. Some people would believe that he was less than ten years old.

Zhao Yiyi didn't think about it that much... He was originally a time traveler, but he was an adult mentally. When he saw this kind of child, he subconsciously felt that the other party should be younger than him. How could he have thought that Di Qing was actually two years older than him.

After setting up Di Qing, Zhao Yiyi returned to the palace before it was dark, preparing for the storm from Liu E.

Liu E should know all the things he did in Kaifeng Mansion, including bringing a young prisoner back to Nanqing Palace.

Liu E should be very angry, and maybe he will be fined not to eat or something, but Zhao Yiyi has no regrets.

Wuqu Xingjun!After this village, there is no such shop!

Unexpectedly, Liu E did not have an attack.

When Zhao Yiyi went to see Liu E, Liu E was reviewing the official documents. After hearing that he actually received the prisoners in person and even recognized a cousin, he didn't raise his head: "Got it. The emperor did a good job."

Zhao Yiyi returned to his bedroom in a daze, and asked Liu En: "What's wrong with the Queen Mother?"

Liu En's intelligence network has covered the entire palace. Although he followed Zhao Yiyi to Kaifeng Mansion, he couldn't hide the big and small things in the palace from his eyes.

Liu En said: "The queen mother just met Lu Yijian."

This Lu Yijian's footsteps are quite fast.

"and then?"

"Lu Yijian and the Queen Mother reported what happened today, and then the Queen Mother asked him what kind of person Lu Wu was."

"How did he return?"

"Lu Yi Jianhui, Lu Wu is the sinner of the Han and Tang Dynasties. The foundation of the Han and Tang Dynasties almost ruined Lu Wu's hand."

Liu En offered Zhao Yiyi a cup of hot tea: "Then the queen mother let Lu Yijian go back. Lu Yijian went to see the Duke of Lai again, but the Duke of Lai didn't see him."

Zhao Yiyi took a sip of tea: "I see."

Lu Yijian ran into a wall with him, knowing that the emperor didn't want to see him, and was afraid that the emperor would do something to him, so he planned to find a backer for himself.

There are only two backers now, and Lu Yijian should plan to hug Liu E's thigh.

However, Liu E couldn't easily trust him due to his sloppy behavior in the past few years, so Liu E wanted him to give an accurate statement.

How do you think of Lu Wu and Lu Wu, and how do you think of Ben Gong who is doing Lu Wu's affairs.If you think Lu Wu is good, then I will accept your surrender.If you think Lu Wu is not good, get out immediately.

Do you want to have reservations?This palace has already talked about this point, do you still want to have reservations?

Once Lu Yijian said this answer, it meant that he could no longer be separated from the two parties.

Say Lu Wu is good, then you are a complete queen mother.If Lu Wu is not good, then you will be completely blacklisted by the Queen Mother.

No regrets, no turning back.

The Empress Dowager refuses to accept vacillating folly and offends the Emperor and plans to seek the Empress Dowager's protection, so you have to let the Empress Dowager see your sincerity.

After weighing it over and over again, Lu Yijian chose the latter answer.

He wanted the queen mother to protect him, but he didn't intend to completely brand himself as the queen mother's party.

That's too dangerous, because sooner or later the queen mother will die before the emperor.

The Duke of Lai might have died earlier than the queen mother, so Lu Yijian chose the one with the longer life between Kou Zhun and Liu E, and planned to stay under the protection of the queen mother until the emperor forgot about him. Transition to Royalist.

To put it bluntly, he planned to use Liu E as a jack.

How can Liu E be a jack for others, so Lu Yijian can leave the palace as he enters the palace.

After leaving the palace, Lu Yijian planned to ask Kou Zhun to be the jack, but Kou Zhun didn't see him.

Zhao Yiyi smiled and said: "You said that this Lu Yijian was originally just me who wanted him to move his position, but now the three families want him to go down."

Needless to say, Liu E was offended severely.It is also impossible for Kou Zhun to embrace someone Liu E despises in his arms, and Lu Yijian occupies such an important position, the final result can only be that Kou and Liu join forces to make him step down.

Lu Yijian has stepped down, who will take his place.

Fan Zhongyan.

Probably only Fan Zhongyan can do it.

Zhao Yiyi's head is getting bigger.

Fan Zhongyan took Lu Yijian's place, who will take Fan Zhongyan's place?

Has the reform of the tea policy been changed?

If the tea policy does not change, where will the court get money to train recruits for Kou Zhun?

Don't think he doesn't know that Kou Zhun's 30 recruits eat meat every day, and the food expenses are more than ten times the original amount.

I heard that they will build a new playground and make sports equipment for them recently. They are blocking the household department every day to ask for money, but they can't get the money.

If the tea policy is not changed, the gap in this area will never be filled.

The tea policy needs to be changed, who will change it?

Tangled and tangled, Chunwei has arrived.

It was March of the second year of Tiansheng, and the imperial examinations were announced.

Zhao Yiyi called it affectionately: The college entrance examination has given out points.

Four of the 150 were Jinshi and the first, and 46 were of the same Jinshi background.

He, the emperor, sat upright in the Chongzheng Hall and listened to Chuanlu roll his names one by one.

This Jinshi is not bad, with a wisdom of 79, but his ambition is low, only more than 20.If the ambition is too low to do big things, he will be a county magistrate in this life.

This Jinshi's intelligence is a bit low, 52, I don't know how he passed the exam.Force is quite high, 73.Brother, you are Wu Zhuanwen.

This Jinshi has one hundred wisdom, one hundred force, and one hundred morality...

Zhao Yiyi sat up straight, and sure enough, Chuanlu read: "Luzhou Baozheng—"

I'll go, live Bao Qingtian!Live!

Wenqu Xingjun has descended to earth!
