Hall of Longevity

The surname of Ankang's servant, Chen Mingyu, was known to Deputy Chen.

"Your Majesty, there is a rule in the palace that if you break an imperial gift, the servant will be killed with a stick."

Ankang also had a toothache. It was not good to break the little yellow gate, but it happened to break the jade wishful that his father had given him earlier.

But he wasn't crazy enough to take a person's life for the sake of Yu Ruyi.

"What's your name?" Ankang saw this little Huangmen with delicate features, although his face was pale, he did not break the rules.It made him look at it with admiration.

"In the words of the king, the humble name is Cao Hua."

"Have you ever read a book?"

"Yes, Nu Zu was a petty official."

"Then how do you do it?"

"The family is in decline, the slave father died early, and there are three younger brothers in the family."

Ankang immediately understood that the rank of servants in the Song Dynasty was not high, but the salary and benefits were excellent.Cao Hua's family must be in extreme hardship.As the eldest son of the family, he entered the palace as a servant to support the whole family.

"Forget it, let him go."

"Your Majesty?" Chen Yu looked embarrassed, which was against the rules.

"Jade Ruyi was a gift from my father. It's a pity that it is broken, but I don't want it to be stained with blood. Unknown! Besides, my father is the most kind and will not take his life because of it. Besides, he is the eldest son in the family and bears the responsibility of raising the younger brother and supporting the mother. If something happened to him, it might not just be a human life."

There is no need to ruin a family for one Yu Ruyi.

"I'll go and talk to daddy in person after a while. I'll punish him for sweeping the yard for half a year."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Yu naturally wouldn't say anything after hearing this, and it was their luck that their master was kind.

Ankang told Zhao Zhen about the matter.

"My son likes the Yu Ruyi that father gave me very much, but if Cao Hua is really killed because of this, my son is afraid that the Cao family will be in trouble."

"It's a good thing for the emperor to be so lenient. Since you like daddy, I'll give you another one." Zhao Zhen was not angry at all, but felt that his son resembled him.

I am very satisfied.

Ankang also expected that his father would not be angry. This opposite palace man was famously good. He would not hold him accountable if he ate a stone, and he didn't want to trouble others to bear it when he was hungry in the middle of the night.

Although he doesn't have such a good temper as his own father, he will not take the life of the palace servants.

What happened in the Longevity Palace quickly spread throughout the palace, and the princes in the Taige felt that the prince was as benevolent as His Majesty today, and the Song Dynasty would always be stable.I am also very happy in my heart.

On the contrary, Yan Shu, who asked for leave at home because of his poor health, sneered after hearing the discussion outside.Their great king is not the same kind of person as today's officials.

The game between the monarch and his subjects has just begun.

In the fifth year of Huangyou's reign, Zhao Zhen made his son the king of Ruijun, and added an official order.

In the sixth year of Huangyou's reign, Prince Jin was canonized as Crown Prince in May of the same year, named Zhao Sheng, and entered Zishantang to study.

The fact that Zhao Sheng became the Crown Prince was justifiable, not only because Zhao Zhen was his only son, but more importantly, he was the first son.Even if Zhao Zhen has other sons, he can't shake the position of the first son.

After becoming the prince, Zhao Sheng completely moved out of the harem, and now lives in Baoben Palace in the east of the Inner Court District.Zhao Zhen arranged for him a bunch of teachers, including the great Confucian scholars of the time, and the serving prime minister.Anyway, a bunch of people surrounded him.

Zhao Sheng could clearly feel that the ministers around him wanted to instill their thoughts into his mind.

After the Qingli New Deal failed, his father's ruling policy was stability, and any forces that wanted to break the current stability would be liquidated by him.

Today's Taige ministers are also this type of people, Wen Yanbo, Fu Bi, Han Qi.They are all representatives of conservatives.

However, not everyone agrees with such a governing policy. Now the country's financial problems are getting more and more serious.The treasury is empty and cleaner than a face.Many local granaries are empty and can starve the rats inside.

The capital city is extremely prosperous at first glance, but what kind of life do the people outside the capital city live.

Zhao Sheng was very clear in his heart.

The emperors of the Song Dynasty cared about those scholars, because the Song Dynasty was "to rule the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, not with the common people".This kind of contempt for the common people, Zhao Sheng's arrogance as a scholar is absolutely unbearable.

Just watch, one day he will let them know that water can carry a boat and capsize it.

After moving out of the harem, Zhao Sheng can move freely, and he has a few useful people around him.For example, Zhang Di, the commander of the various squads who is in charge of his safety, and Cao Hua, who is now well known as the deputy of Bao Bengong.

Cao's family outside the palace can also be regarded as his disciples, and they run some properties for him outside the palace.In order not to be accused by those officials who are full and have nothing to do, Zhao Sheng did not come to the front of the stage.

Hotels in the Song Dynasty can be divided into official stores and foot stores. Official stores are restaurants that have a liquor license issued by the government, while foot stores are hotels that do not have such qualifications.

It is not easy for Zhao Sheng to obtain such a license quietly, but he also has his own trump card.During the Northern Song Dynasty, everyone's diet was still mostly stewed and boiled dishes, which were tasteless.Zhao Sheng launched stir-fried dishes in his own restaurant, and there was an endless stream of guests for a while.

Zhao Sheng not only earned money, but also established a news network.Since ancient times, this restaurant and brothel with a large number of people has been a distribution center for news.

"Your Highness, there is news from the harem that Zhang Guifei has passed away."

Zhao Sheng raised his head and put down the book in his hand: "What is Daddy's will?"

"Your Majesty is extremely sad, and said that he wants to make Concubine Zhang Gui the empress." Cao Hua's tone was angry, and the officials would put His Highness the Crown Prince in such a way.

"Daddy is really capricious." Originally, Zhao Sheng thought that with Empress Cao having him as a son, there would be no farce in history where Zhao Zhen ignored the empress' face and made two empresses die in one lifetime.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that his father was still a lover.

"Your Highness, what the officials do will not only damage the majesty of the Queen, but also let you how to deal with yourself."

"The minister of the former dynasty would not agree." If Empress Cao did not have his son, then the ministers of the previous dynasty might object [-]% of the time.With him, the courtiers will be [-]% opposed.

Without him, Zhao Zhen's determination to pursue the title would be seven points, but with him, Zhao Zhen's determination would only be three or four points at most.

"But I also want to show my sense of existence. Cao Hua, go to the Hall of Compassion."

"Yes."

As soon as the news that Zhao Zhen wanted to pursue Concubine Zhang reached Taige, Fu Bi, Ouyang Xiu and others couldn't sit still.

"How can the officials be so confused!" Ouyang Xiu was the most irritable, and immediately jumped to his feet.

"Uncle Yong!" Fu Bi hurriedly scolded Ouyang Xiu, without looking at where this place is, how could he say such things about officials, it's disrespectful.

Han Qi frowned: "It's absolutely impossible to chase after the title. The queen is innocent, dignified and wise, and has a prince. If Zhang Guifei is chased after her, how will the queen and prince deal with herself?"

"Han Xianggong is right. The prince is smart, and his father and mother are extremely filial, but because Concubine Zhang was rude to the queen in the early years, the prince didn't like it. If your majesty insists on making Concubine Zhang the queen, I'm afraid the father and son will be at odds." .” Fu Bi pointed out the most important point.

The relationship between the crown prince and the official family has always been very good, the father is kind and the son is filial, although the crown prince doesn't like Zhang Guifei's domineering, but he still treats him with courtesy.But if His Majesty pushes forward, I am afraid that the court will not be safe in the future.

If His Majesty had other sons, the Crown Prince might not be head-on, but no, the Crown Prince is His Majesty's only child, a legitimate son.The most orthodox heirs of their dynasty represent the orthodoxy maintained by scholars like them.

Besides, the prince is not at fault for this matter. When the father and son fight, they will be caught in the middle and they will not be human.

"No matter what, chasing after the queen is absolutely not allowed." Wen Yanbo also spoke out.

The people present looked at Wen Yanbo. Zhang Guifei's father, Zhang Yaofeng, had been Wen Yanbo's father's guest before his death. Zhang Guifei wanted to recognize Wen Yanbo as his uncle in order to improve his status.It's just that Wen Yanbo didn't agree, but there are also some rumors in the court that the Wen family and the Zhang family are extremely close.

Wen Yanbo felt helpless looking at the faces of his colleagues. The reason why he was relegated before was because he gave Shu brocade to Concubine Zhang. God knows he had never seen the brocade, okay?It's all the old mother and daughter-in-law in the family who make trouble.

Empress Cao has the crown prince around, whoever has a bad brain will lean towards Concubine Zhang, and no one in the whole country knows that the crown prince doesn't like Concubine Zhang's aggressiveness towards his mother.This is also human nature, which son in the world would like to see a concubine disrespecting his mother.

Wen Yanbo was ridiculed by the prince several times when he held Ben Gong to teach the prince.If she were to stand on the side of the noble concubine now, she would probably be hated by the crown prince for a lifetime in the future.

"Mr. Fu, news came from the inner court. After hearing the news, the crown prince went to the Hall of Compassion."

Han Qi and Fu Bi looked at each other and smiled, the prince's move was very appropriate.This is to show everyone that he loves the queen and knows that the queen has been wronged.Expressed his disapproval of posthumous seal.Did not confront the officials directly, but gave the officials a step down.

"Yanguo, it's time for us to go to the Chuigong Hall to see His Majesty."

In fact, Zhao Zhen regretted it after he became clear-headed. Lingxi's death made him a little confused, and he was instigated by the servants around him, so he finally said that he wanted to pursue Lingxi as queen.

"Mao Ze, where is the prince?" What Zhao Zhen is most worried about now is that the prince thinks he is partial and doesn't care about him.

"If you go back to the official's house, the prince will go to the Ciyuan Hall after getting the news."

"...Queen, she..." Zhao Zhen also felt a little guilty. After all, the queen was his first wife, and their relationship with him has improved a lot over the years, and they have a son between them.

He knew that neither the queen nor the prince was rude to Lingxi.It was he who felt guilty towards Lingxi, and the posthumous title was also to make up for her years of infatuation.

If Zhao Sheng knew his father's naive thoughts, he would probably laugh on the spot.

If Zhao Zhen was a commoner, let's see if Mrs. Zhang, who is infatuated with him, would look straight at him.

There are many women in the harem who are sincere to Zhao Zhen, but it's just the Zhang family. If she really loves Zhao Zhen, why would she beg for an official for her family again and again.How could he covet the queen's position, and all he wanted was to be a queen.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang has no son and did not take the position of queen, otherwise she would be another queen Liu.

"Your Majesty closed the door and didn't come out. I only saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"...I'm sorry for her."

"Officials, the gentlemen of the Taiwan Pavilion are asking to see you."

"Forget it, I will disappear and tell them that I will not pursue Feng Wen to become the queen."

The author has something to say: the princes and daughters of the Song Dynasty called each other Brother Jia and Sister, and there was no title of brother.

It is really a headache, please treat this world as if it is half-empty, many things do not conform to history.

Goodbye to the party.
