The daily life of the crown prince of the Song Dynasty

After the princess of Runan County and the princess left, Zhao Yang hurried to Kunning Palace.

"Ma'am, Princess Runan County and the others..."

"They came here for the sake of talking, but I refused." Empress Cao frowned slightly and said, "They don't seem to give up, I'm afraid they will propose to the official."

"I'm going to find my father now." After Zhao Yang finished speaking, he hurried to Funing Palace.

In Funing Palace, Song Renzong was playing chess with Chen Meiren, when he heard that Zhao Yang had come, he was slightly startled.

"Isn't Yang Yang taking a nap at this time, why did he come to Funing Palace?"

Chen Meiren stood up and bowed to Song Renzong: "Presumably His Royal Highness has something important to discuss with the officials, and the concubine will leave first."

Song Renzong nodded lightly, and then said to Zhang Maoshi: "Let Yang Yang come in."

When Zhao Yang came in, he met Chen Meiren.

Chen Meiren bowed to him: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince."

Zhao Yang nodded slightly to her, and then walked into Funing Palace.

"Shouldn't you be taking a nap at this time? Why did you come to Funing Palace?" Song Renzong asked concerned, "Did something happen?"

Zhao Yang ran all the way over, panting slightly, then picked up the teacup in front of Song Renzong and drank it.After drinking the tea, he calmed down and said, "For Zhao Zongshi."

"Zhao Zongshi?" Song Renzong raised his eyebrows slightly, "What's wrong with him?"

Zhao Yang sat down opposite Song Renzong: "Father, the princess of Runan County and the princess will come to the palace to meet the lady, you know?"

"I know, what are they looking for with the queen?"

"They are looking for a lady to propose to Zhao Zongshi."

"Marriage proposal?" Song Renzong was slightly stunned, "Who are they asking for?"

"Gao Taotao, a few years ago, the Prince of Runan County proposed to the Gao family, but they were rejected by the Gao family. I didn't expect that they would not give up. They have been continuously proposing to the Gao family for the past two years." Zhao Yang said displeasedly. Said, "They came to see the lady today to ask Gao Taotao to marry him."

"You don't want Zhao Zongshi to marry Gao Taotao?"

"Of course not."

"Why don't you want to?" Song Renzong looked at Eriri with interest, "Didn't you reject Gao Taotao, why don't you want her to marry someone else now?"

Zhao Yang saw that Song Renzong had misunderstood him, so he gave his father a big roll of his eyes rebelliously: "Daddy, if Gao Taotao marries someone else, I definitely have no objection, but if Zhao Zongshi wants to marry her, I don't agree."

"Why is this?"

"Father, Zhao Zongshi is several years older than Gao Taotao. It stands to reason that he should have proposed marriage a few years ago, but he has not done so for a long time. He has to wait until Gao Taotao is about to propose marriage to the Gao family. Why do you think this is the case?" ?”

Song Renzong was taken aback by the question, "Why?"

"Of course it's a conspiracy." Zhao Yang said angrily, "Gao Taotao almost became a princess when he entered the palace. What is it for?"

When Song Renzong heard this, his face immediately became gloomy.

"Daddy, the Princess of Runan County will ask you to marry Gao Taotao if she fails to marry her." Zhao Yang said, "I'm afraid that in a few days, the King of Runan County will enter the palace and ask you for a marriage." will."

Song Renzong said with a cold face: "I knew he was not a good guy."

"Dad is talking about Zhao Zongshi?"

"It's him." Although Song Renzong selected Zhao Zongshi and brought him up in the palace, he didn't like Zhao Zongshi.

At first, he thought that Zhao Zongshi was a good kid, but after sending Zhao Zongshi out of the palace for the first time and bringing him back to the palace again, Zhao Zongshi's mind became different.

The children of other county kings were not very good, so Song Renzong had to bring Zhao Zongshi to the palace again.Fortunately, after Empress Cao became pregnant, Song Renzong never brought Zhao Zongshi closer to the palace again.

Zhao Yang looked at his father's mention of Zhao Zong and showed dislike in real time, he was a little surprised, and asked suspiciously: "Dad, didn't you choose him to be raised as the prince at the beginning, why do you seem to dislike him so much?"

"I thought he was very good at the beginning, but after he entered the palace twice, his mind changed and he didn't want to leave the palace." Song Renzong was always glad that he had listened to Master Kong Jing's words, otherwise the current prince would be Zhao Zongshi. "Afterwards, I sent him out of the palace again. Although he looked happy on the surface, I knew he resented me in his heart."

"Father, to be fair, if you take people back and forth into the palace like this, and then send them out of the palace capriciously, it's normal for them to have resentment." Zhao Yang said again, "However, it doesn't matter if you say his mind has changed. It's normal, after all he knows that he entered the palace to be the prince."

"Hmph, I thought he was as honest as the King of Runan County, but I didn't expect him to be a man with evil intentions." Song Renzong said coldly.

"Daddy, it's not surprising that he has ambitions." Zhao Yang changed the subject, "I think he's uneasy and kind in marrying Gao Taotao."

"It must be not according to good intentions." Song Renzong thought so when he was told by Zhao Yang.

"Father, if the King of Runan County asks you for a marriage order, you have to refuse."

"I won't agree." Song Renzong said, "Even if Zhao Zongshi hadn't entered the palace, I wouldn't let the Prince of Runan County marry the daughter of the Gao family."

Hearing what Song Renzong said, Zhao Yang felt relieved.

"Daddy is wise."

"You came to me just for this?"

"Aren't I afraid that you will agree? After all, you have a good relationship with the King of Runan County." Zhao Yang hurriedly flattered him again, "It's still Daddy's trickery."

Song Renzong glared at his son in a funny and angry way: "Stop being so talkative."

"Daddy, I won't bother you anymore." Zhao Yang jumped off the couch and waved to Song Renzong, "I'll go back first."

"Hurry up and get out." Song Renzong said angrily.

After Zhao Yang left, Song Renzong's face turned cold in an instant.

Seeing Song Renzong's sullen face, Zhang Maoshi, who was waiting aside, asked cautiously, "Guan, what's wrong with you?"

"Why do you think Zhao Zongshi insists on marrying Gao Taotao?"

"This..." Zhang Maoshi said hesitantly, "It's hard to tell a villain."

"I forgive you for your innocence."

Hearing this sentence, Zhang Maoshi said without hesitation: "It should be with malicious intentions, perhaps aimed at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Song Renzong said with a cold face: "I really didn't expect that." After speaking, he told Zhang Maoshi, "Send someone to watch him."

"Officials, are you worried that Zhao Zongshi will harm the Crown Prince?"

"Yang Yang is not yet an adult, but he is already an adult." Song Renzong's eyes were cold, "Perhaps he has thoughts that he shouldn't have."

"The villain will arrange it immediately."

After Zhao Yang left Funing Palace, he didn't rush back to East Palace, but went to Kunning Palace, and told Empress Cao again what Song Renzong had said to him.

"Since the officials say they won't grant a marriage, then the Prince's Mansion of Runan County won't bother you anymore." Empress Cao looked at Chunyu and said, "You tell my sister the news, so that she and Tao Tao can rest assured."

"Ma'am, now is not the time to rest assured."

"What do you mean?"

"It's clear that the marriage proposal is unsuccessful, I'm afraid Zhao Zongshi will do something secretly to ruin Sister Tao Tao's reputation, so that Sister Tao Tao has to marry him." Zhao Yang hoped that he was overthinking, but he was really worried that Zhao Zongshi would come to Yin .

When Empress Cao heard this, her face was cold: "I will let your aunt take care of Tao Tao, and don't let Tao Tao go out."

"I hope I was thinking too much." If Zhao Zongshi really wanted to marry Gao Taotao by any means, as he thought, then there is only one possibility.That's him reborn!

Only when Zhao Zongshi was reborn, would he try his best to marry Gao Taotao. After all, in his previous life, Gao Taotao was his wife and his queen.

As the emperor, it is impossible for him to watch his wife marry another man.He didn't want Gao Taotao to marry another man, not because he loved Gao Taotao deeply, but because he didn't want to be cuckolded.

If Zhao Zongshi is really reborn, then he has to be careful.

If it were him, he was the emperor in his previous life, and in this life his throne was robbed by someone who did not exist in his previous life, so he would feel unbalanced, and naturally wanted to take back the throne that originally belonged to him.

However, if Zhao Zongshi is really reborn, it is impossible to remain indifferent and do nothing.If it was him, he would do everything possible to get rid of this person who suddenly appeared and snatched his throne.However, Zhao Zongshi did not do anything to him in these years.

Zhao Yang thought for a while, could it be that Zhao Zongshi was reborn only a few years ago, and everything is still being arranged?

Seeing her son frowning tightly, Empress Cao asked with concern, "What's wrong with Yang Yang?"

"Ma'am, I always feel that something is wrong with Zhao Zongshi." Zhao Yang thinks that he can travel through time, so it's not surprising that Zhao Zongshi can be reborn.However, whether Zhao Zongshi was reborn or not, he had to send someone to watch him. "Ma'am, send someone to watch Zhao Zongshi secretly."

"Your father should send someone to watch Zhao Zongshi." Empress Cao really knew Song Renzong very well.

"That's good." Zhao Yang guessed that Song Renzong should let Zhang Maoshi send someone to watch Zhao Zongshi. He will go to Zhang Maoshi later and tell him some things.

"It's getting late, you go back to have a lunch break."

"Ma'am, there's something I forgot to say." Zhao Yang was just about to leave, but seeing Cao Xu kept making eye contact with him, it suddenly occurred to him that there was one thing he forgot to say. "In a few days, I plan to go spring hunting."

"Go." Empress Cao did not object to her son going out for spring hunting, "Be careful yourself."

"Don't worry, ma'am, I will pay attention."

It was not Zhao Yang who came forward to organize the Spring Hunting.Instead, the Cao family and the Zhe family take turns holding spring hunting and autumn hunting every year, and Zhao Yang, the crown prince, participated as a guest.

If Zhao Yang came forward to hold spring hunting or autumn hunting as the prince, the ministers would be troublesome again.

After leaving the Kunning Palace, Zhao Yang asked Cao Xu to go back to Cao's house and tell Cao's house that he was going to participate in the spring hunting.

This year's Spring Hunt was not held by the Cao family, but by the Yao family.Zhao Yang wanted the Cao family to notify the Yao family.

Back in the East Palace, Zhao Yang took a nap for an hour.In the afternoon, he continued to study with Ouyang Xiu.

After reading the book with Ouyang Xiu, he discussed the current imperial examination system with Ouyang Xiu.

He felt that the current imperial examination system in Song Dynasty was not very good, so he tentatively talked to Ouyang Xiu.

In the past few years, Ouyang Xiu has been the chief examiner of the imperial examination.If Zhao Yang wants to reform the imperial examination system, he must first get the support of Ouyang Xiu.
