Emperor Renzong of the Great Song Dynasty

Zhao Yiyi rested his chin on his hand and looked at the officials in the hall who were staring at him.

I'm dumbfounded, I haven't seen this kind of battle before.

Didn't you say that Di Qing should not be a privy envoy to avoid "rewards without rewards", then I will change the concept secretly.

The official position of "private envoy" is not a reward, but a responsibility and a heavy burden.

I didn't reward Di Qing with anything, I just thought this kid was quite capable, so I let him bear his due responsibilities.

In the future, if he really does other meritorious service, I will reward him with gold, silver and jewels from the manor house, and it will be over.

Anyway, you all admitted it yourself, Di Qing is the god of war, and the god of war is born to win battles, so it is only natural for him to be the privy envoy.

Although the officials in the palace were dizzy by the emperor's logic, they felt that something was wrong.

But what's wrong?I really can't tell.

Seeing them scratching their heads one by one, Zhao Yiyi was in a very happy mood: "Since all the ministers have no other objections, this matter is settled like this. Fan Qing is a scholar of Jixian Hall, and Di Qing is a privy envoy. You two, son-in-law, have a piece of paper and a weapon, but you must serve me well."

After going to court, Zhao Yiyi received a letter from Bao Zheng, saying that the wedding date was approaching and he would take half a month's leave to get married in Hermitage Village.

Bao Zheng is now the de facto second-in-command of Yushitai, and he needs the emperor's consent to go home and get married.

Zhao Yiyi smiled and said, "It takes only half a month to get married, which is also a workaholic to a certain level."

But it just so happens that he is also a workaholic, and as a boss, seeing his subordinates love labor so much, I feel very relieved.

He didn't think too much, and directly gave Bao Zheng permission to leave.

After getting the leave, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

He touched the back of his neck, and said to Liu En, "Why do I suddenly feel that Bao Zheng should not be granted this leave?"

Liu En asked suspiciously, "How can he get married if we don't give him leave?"

"Too……"

Zhao Yiyi murmured: "We still have to get married, what if we don't get married..."

The three-year period is coming soon, if Bao Zheng is not married yet, wouldn't it be the end of the calf?

Anyway, even if they go home and get married, there won't be any major mistakes.Came back after half a month.

Besides Bao Zheng, Di Qing also had to make some arrangements.

Considering the situation of Miss Fan's family, Fan Lingyi, the wedding date set by the Fan's family is just around the corner, and I'm afraid that it will take too long for Miss Fan to become ill from lovesickness.

Anyway, Di Qing doesn't care, she can get married at any time.Hurry up, the birth dates of both parties have been exchanged, and they are waiting for the man to hire.

Di Qing's parents were not around, so the appointment was done by Niang Niang from Nanqing Palace.

Zhao Yiyi said to Liu En: "Di Qing is my cousin, and Miss Fan is the daughter of my prime minister. In terms of emotion and reason, I should reward them with something."

Liu Endao: "What rewards?"

Zhao Yiyi pondered for a while: "Well... you can ask the queen if there are any candles, silks and satins left over from the wedding, small festive items related to the wedding. Don't Too expensive, so as not to attract people's tongues. Don't make the pattern too taboo."

Wedding is one of the four great joys in life, and the country also encourages the marriage of men and women, so on the wedding day, the level restrictions on new people's clothing, carriages and horses will be relaxed accordingly.

For example, the eight-carrier sedan chair that the bride takes when she gets married is usually not available to ordinary officials.

There are also the red and green auspicious clothes worn by the newcomers, the phoenix crowns worn, and the dragon and phoenix candles burned in the bridal chamber, etc., are all patterns that cannot be used by ordinary people.

But on the day of the wedding, nothing is presumptuous.

In addition, Di Qing was already an official, so he could still find a lot of useful things from the scraps left over from the emperor's wedding.

As long as there are no patterns such as twelve articles or nine dragons and nine phoenixes that are absolutely exclusive to emperors and empresses.

Rewarding Di Qing with the things left over from the emperor's wedding is not only close and favored, but not too eye-catching.

This is my cousin, why don't I give you a little reward?

Liu En sent a little maid to the Queen's Palace to spread the word, asking her if there were any silk candles left from her previous wedding.

Not long after, Xiao Gong'e came back and said that there were a lot of these things left at the beginning, and they were all stored in the treasury.The queen asked what it was for, so that she could have it taken out of the vault.

Zhao Yiyi said: "Go and tell the queen that my cousin is going to get married, and ask the queen to pick out some small items that are not taboo and not expensive, and give them to Nanqing Palace."

After all, the marriage of the courtiers is not regarded as serious government affairs, and an emperor like him should not interfere too much.Before giving marriages to Di Qing and Miss Fan, it was to reassure Fan Zhongyan, but this time the rewards were still made by the Queen.

The little maid went away again, and this time it took more than an hour to come back, saying that the queen went to the warehouse in person and found twelve pairs of phoenix candles, twelve mandarin ducks playing in the water, and some southern red agates. Diao's early-born precious son will be sent to Nanqing Palace tomorrow.

Zhao Yiyi nodded: "The queen is doing very well."

This little thing is really nothing to the royal family, just like the three melons and two dates that people usually give away when visiting relatives. The important thing is not the value of the thing, but the heart of the giver.

To send goose feathers from thousands of miles away, the gift is light and the affection is heavy.

Because of the approaching wedding date, Di Qing left the Forbidden Army camp and temporarily lived in Nanqing Palace, next door to Xia Yuqi and Bai Yutang.

The night Xia Yuqi first moved into Nanqing Palace, he burned down the guest courtyard of Nanqing Palace.

The Eight Sage Kings went into the palace angrily to seek an explanation from the emperor, but the emperor gave him a bunch of brainwashing bags. He firmly believed that Xia Yuqi was the righteous man who let the truth about the exhumation of the former emperor's tomb come to light. As the guest of honor, let him live in a small courtyard not far from the main courtyard where the Eight Sage Kings' family lived.

Di Qing is Princess Di's nephew, and he can be regarded as a member of the Nanqing Palace. Naturally, he lives in the main courtyard, which happens to be next door to Xia Yuqi.

Xia Yuqi was still fiddling with his ghostly mechanism parts every day, but he never lost his temper.

Bai Yutang went to Qingbei University during the day and worked as an assistant teacher of martial arts, and at night he went back to Nanqing Palace to sleep.Di Qing and him also had similar work and rest schedules, and after going back and forth, the two became so acquainted.

Both of them are young men with full of vigor, and they are also warriors, so they have some topics in common.Usually when they are free, they get together to learn martial arts, and the friendship is deeper.

Di Juvenile was imprisoned, and he had never cultivated the lightness kung fu and internal strength of the Jianghu people. Although he had a lot of strength, he seldom gained the upper hand when fighting with Bai Yutang.

And it was not so easy for Bai Yutang to deal with him—although Qinggong allows him to run fast and jump high, but you can't run so fast and jump so high all the time.Once the speed slowed down, being touched by Di Qing once or twice, it would be uncomfortable.

This day happened to be a holiday, Di Qing didn't have to go to court, and Qingbei University was also on holiday.

Bai Yutang came to Di Qing's courtyard with a wooden knife to learn from him—his own courtyard was full of Xia Yuqi's parts, knocking down one or two old men would make them go crazy, and it was difficult to use them—Di Qing happened to be eager for skills, so he agreed He came down and said with a smile: "In terms of saber skills, you must be inferior to me. In the barracks, I have already mastered both of them."

Bai Yutang snorted and pointed the wooden knife at him: "Stop talking nonsense!"

The sparring between friends is only to exchange martial arts, so wooden knives are used.

Di Qing also came out with a wooden knife, and the two fought together, shouted loudly, and fought together.

A quarter of an hour later, Di Qing stood under the tree panting, looking up at Bai Yutang at the crown of the tree: "Hey, why don't you come down and rest for a while?"

Bai Yutang shook his head: "It's cooler here!"

Di Qing smiled and said, "Okay, Bai Lao. Er, you can't beat me, so you hid in a tree."

Bai Yutang laughed: "Or you come up too?"

Di Qing said: "I don't know the kung fu of you Jianghu people. I jumped up the tree in two or three strokes. When I finally climbed up, you jumped down again. It seems that I am playing tricks."

Bai Yutang said: "How can you blame others for your lack of lightness kung fu? Or you take me to the barracks to play around, and I'll teach you lightness kung fu, how about it?"

There is no man who does not yearn for life in the military camp, and Di Qing has such outstanding military exploits, which makes people yearn even more.

In his dreams, Bai Yutang wanted to serve under Di Qing's command and become a general. When foreign enemies invaded again, he would go to the border to defend his family and country just like him...

Di Qing crossed his arms: "You are dreaming. Senior Xia said that if I dare to take you into the barracks, I will hang me on the city wall as dried bacon. I dare not take this risk."

Bai Yutang curled his lips: "Then you will never learn lightness kung fu in your life."

Di Qing said with a smile: "You don't necessarily have to find you to learn lightness kung fu. There is a knight-errant beside Mr. Bao, who is excellent in lightness kung fu. In my opinion, he is ten times stronger than you."

He deliberately provoked Bai Yutang, and Bai Yutang took the bait, and immediately blew up: "Who is it!"

Di Qing said, "I'll tell you when you come down."

Bai Yutang was about to jump, but suddenly grabbed the branch beside him: "Wait a minute!"

Di Qing said: "What's wrong?"

Bai Yutang set up an awning and looked into the distance: "Wait, who is that?"

Di Qing asked, "What did you see?"

The tree in his courtyard seems to be 100 years old. Its trunk is straight and it grows extremely high. Standing on the top of the tree, you can overlook half of the Bianliang, and even vaguely overlook the corner of the palace.

This is already a bit presumptuous, if it weren't for the good life of this tree, which was born in Nanqing Palace, it would have been cut in two long ago.

When Bai Yutang is free, he likes to climb to the top of the tree and look at the beautiful scenery in the distance.Sometimes I even brought Di Qing to watch it together, and the two of them gnawed on the tree with a handful of fruits, talking high-spiritedly, and could waste a whole afternoon.

Once, Bai Yutang brought Chen Shao, a pot of privet, to the tree, but he drank too much and dared not come down from the tree, and Di Qing didn't dare to move. When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Xia Yuqi finally remembered that he still had an apprentice who hadn't returned. Only then did they rescue the two of them.

From then on, Di Qing didn't dare to let Bai Yutang drink on the tree.

At this time, Bai Yutang pointed in the direction of the Nanqing Palace gate: "A few eunuchs are here, carrying several boxes. What are they here for?"
