In the early morning, other people's homes were still quiet, but the sound of knives chopping chopping boards could already be heard from the kitchen of Shen's Bieye.

The cook urged the girl who was helping her to work more quickly, and the girl hurriedly prepared the ingredients that the cook wanted.

"I got up late today, and I don't know if Xiao Lang will get angry later." The cook was worried.

In fact, it is far from the time to prepare breakfast, but Shen Ji and Li Yunyao have to study and get up very early every day, so the kitchen has to prepare some food for them to pad their stomachs.

Due to the chilly weather in the spring, the cook could not get up, so she accidentally slept for half an hour longer than usual. Seeing that it was almost time for the maid to come to get breakfast, she became even more anxious.

At this time, Lan'er's figure appeared at the kitchen door, and the cook first explained: "I got up late today, but it will be fine soon, please tell Xiao Langjun, wait a little longer."

Lan'er said: "I'm here to tell you that Xiao Langjun and Miss Yun got up late today, so you can prepare breakfast."

The cook was stunned for a while, and the boulder hanging in her heart fell, and she breathed a sigh of relief.Knowing that there is no need to rush to get ready for breakfast, she chatted with Lan'er in a leisurely manner: "Why are you getting up late today, Mr. Xiaolang and Mrs. Yun?"

Lan'er's cheeks were slightly hot, and she said, "Last night I was studying late."

From the look on her face, the cook doesn't seem like she's talking about studying, does she?

But after all, the cook has a lot of experience, and she understood the meaning of "reading" that Lan'er said, so she smiled knowingly.Of course she knew that Shen Ji and Li Yunyao were forced by Shen Yilu to have a child yesterday, so she only "fighted" later than usual because they were trying to create a human being.

On the other side, Shen Ji, who was still sleeping late, grabbed Li Yunyao who had left the bed, and said, "The kang is still warm, wouldn't waking up so early be a waste of all its hard work?"

Li Yunyao leaned over and kissed her, and said with a smile, "You were so tired last night, you really should sleep more."

"It's the first time for everyone. If you wake up so early, doesn't it seem that I haven't served you well?" Shen Ji got up unwillingly, "You are not tired, and I am not tired either!"

Li Yunyao didn't get used to her either, and said, "Since you're not tired, then get up and study."

Shen Ji: "..."

She gritted her teeth and got off the bed with a pouted mouth: "Do you have no other lines besides this line?"

Li Yunyao thought for a while, looked at her, his eyes flickered like silk: "Is that concubine helping you change clothes?"

Shen Ji thought of last night, with a shame on his face, he said: "Come if you want, anyway, I am new to human affairs, and I know what it is like to spend a whole day on this bed with you. I just don't know if you want to I do."

Li Yunyao pushed her shoulder lightly, and scolded softly, "You're not ashamed! It's cold, put on your clothes quickly."

Shen Ji wrapped her chest and dressed slowly, Li Yunyao finished dressing, and went back to help her tidy up.

After washing and getting dressed, the two went out to greet Yan Shu. As for Shen Yilu, he had already gone out to court, so why would they wait until they greeted Yan Shu before going out!

Li Yunyao knew that Yan Shu's eyes were like torches. What happened between her and Shen Ji last night, how could it escape Yan Shu's eyes?Because of the shame in her heart, she didn't dare to stay here any longer, so after paying her respects, she went back to her room to study.

Shen Ji has a thick skin, so he stayed to greet Yan Shu, just wanting to learn some skills from her.

Yan Shu didn't teach her anything, but just talked about Boss Zhao's "Long Spring Festival" in a few days, and the arrangements for their family to enter the palace for a banquet.

Shen Ji is still looking forward to the Spring Festival, she said: "I learned from Sister Lu a few days ago that this year's banquet has a new pattern."

In the past, there were ten programs during the Spring Festival. Generally speaking, after drinking a round of wine, you will change to another program. On the other hand, when a program ends, you will have to change to a different wine or a different dish.After the entire palace banquet, there will be a total of ten wine and food changes, and the program will also arrange ten rotations.

But without exception, these programs are singing and dancing, Baixi (acrobatics), farce, boys' dance, and ball building competitions.

Shen Ji just learned that this year's Changchun Festival changed a song and dance into a martial arts competition to showcase the martial arts skills of the soldiers of the Song Dynasty. It is said that Boss Zhao personally asked for additions and changes to the program.

Reminiscent of the recent situation in Jiangnan, everyone only thought that Boss Zhao was sending a signal to everyone that he was determined to forge ahead in Jiangnan, so they didn't raise any objections.

Yan Shu was a little surprised by this. In fact, she was surprised when Princess Yan didn't die of illness in October last year.

Because in the original book, after Princess Yan died of illness, Boss Zhao was in a heavy heart, and the next year's Changchun Festival was also cancelled, and there would be no program changes.

However, since Shen Ji often went to the princess mansion to see the heroic appearance of the eldest princess back then, there were rumors that the eldest princess was wiping and juggling knives at home every day.The eldest princess exercises so much every day, her body will naturally recover, and the history of illness and death will naturally undergo a small change...

Yan Shu thought of the "butterfly effect", but she didn't expect that such a big butterfly, the author of her original work, could not instigate a change in the course of history. Shen Ji, a little butterfly, could change the life and death of historical figures by flapping its wings casually. .

Yan Shu didn't mention these things to Shen Ji, after all, it would be pointless to mention them.

-

On the day of the Changchun Festival, the Shen family dressed neatly, got into the car and drove into the palace.

Last year, Shen Ji's seat was still below Zhao Chengzong's, but this year she and Xue Ji's seat was the same, and at their table were Zhao Defang, the youngest son of Boss Zhao, and Zhao Dechong, the eldest son of Zhao Guangyi.

Zhao Dechong is only ten years old now, and this is also his father's queen, and he entered the palace to participate in the Changchun Festival.

It stands to reason that he and Zhao Defang should sit with Zhao Dezhao as sons of the clan, but Zhao Guangyi arranged for him to sit with Zhao Dezhao on the grounds that his son was young and had not been out of the cabinet. sit down.

Seeing this, Boss Zhao thought that his youngest son hadn't left the cabinet yet, so he simply let them sit outside with Shen Ji and Xue Ji.

Zhao Defang and Zhao Dechong are still young, and they don't think that their father's asking them to sit outside is some kind of political metaphor.On the contrary, Zhao Defang met Shen Ji last time in Yujin Garden. Although they were not familiar with each other, they had a topic after sitting together, and soon chatted with Shen Ji.

Regardless of Zhao Dechong's young age, he thought he was incompatible with Shen Ji and others. He was smart and alert since he was a child, and he also learned riding and archery, so he had a lot to talk to Shen Ji.

Xue Ji: "..."

He didn't know whether to say that Shen Ji was a good socialite, or that the prince Zhao Defang and the prince Zhao Dechong were approachable.

At this time, there seemed to be some discordant voices in the hall.Shen Ji and the others who were sitting outside naturally didn't know what happened, but they heard the officials in the hall discussing, and learned from them that it was Boss Zhao's brother-in-law Wang Jixun who just took advantage of the wine and asked Boss Zhao to transfer him. Back to Bianliang.

Speaking of Wang Jixun, if he is said to be Bianliang's second nephew, then no one would dare to say that he is number one.And what he did was much worse than ordinary dandies.

He is the son of Wang Rao, the Jiedu envoy of the Zhangde Army. Boss Zhao's second wife, Queen Wang, is his sister. Because of Queen Wang, Boss Zhao thinks highly of him.

Besides, he himself is handsome, but unfortunately his personality is arrogant and cruel, and his behavior is comparable to that of a street rogue.He can be reincarnated, has a father who is a Jiedu envoy, and a sister who is an empress, so he secretly became an official at a young age, and later became the commander of Long Jie's right wing and also served as a defense envoy.

Defense envoys are in charge of military affairs like Jiedu envoys, but defense envoys are generally part-time.But even so, it can be seen how good life is for him relying on the emperor's brother-in-law.

But he is too arrogant and willful, and he is lawless.

Once Boss Zhao knew that there were more than a thousand soldiers under his command who had not married wives, so he asked him to find marriages for the soldiers, saying that there must be someone willing to marry the soldiers, and there was no need to prepare a dowry, just prepare a banquet for them. Just a wedding banquet.

Wang Jixun didn't do what Boss Zhao said, but directly ordered his men to go to the city to rob people.

At the feet of the emperor, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Wang Jixun's behavior was simply lawless.Soon he was reported to Boss Zhao.When Queen Wang died of illness, Boss Zhao did not question him because of his dead wife, but instead arrested more than 100 soldiers and executed them, and the matter settled down like this.

Maybe this happened, Wang Jixun also knew that without the support of the Queen's sister, his life would be difficult, so he often abused his subordinates.

So he was sued again.

Boss Zhao simply relieved him of his military power and let him be an idle military officer with a salary to do nothing and live his own happy life!

But he didn't appreciate it, thinking that his sister was gone, and the relationship between Boss Zhao and him really weakened.He has a reckless temperament, and when he is depressed, he wants to find something to relieve his depression.

He had abused his subordinates before, but now that he was punished, not only did he not stop, but intensified, - since he can't abuse his subordinates, let's abuse the servants at home!

His psychology gradually became abnormal, whipping and the like could no longer satisfy him, and he began to cut human flesh.Whenever he saw the slaves screaming in pain from being cut, he felt very satisfied, and then he didn't find someone to bury the bodies until the slaves were cut to death alive. .

This matter was not reported until one day when it rained heavily and the walls of the Wang family collapsed, and a group of trapped servants escaped and went to sue, and the world knew about it.

Because Wang Jixun's methods were too cruel and shocking, Boss Zhao was so frightened that he couldn't believe it. Finally, he ordered the imperial army to arrest him, have the corpses dug out, and deprive him of all his official positions and salary, and exile him to the boarding house. state.

Wang Jixun was really scared this time, so he cried at home every day for his dead sister.

When Boss Zhao knew about it, he also missed his dead wife very much, so he couldn't bear to revoke the edict to exile him and let him go to the East Palace to guard the gate.

As we all know, Boss Zhao did not establish a prince, so the position in the East Palace is actually a false title.Asking Wang Jixun to guard the gate of the East Palace is naturally a void, which is equivalent to him being imprisoned at home while holding an official position.

In the third year of Kaibao, that is, in 970, Boss Zhao saw that he had been peaceful for so long, and he should have reformed himself, so he let him be divided into Xijing.That is to go to Luoyang to be a sub-officer—in fact, this is a vacant position prepared for officials who are retired or sick.

Wang Jixun was sent to Luoyang in this way. In previous years, he was not allowed to come back to participate in the Spring Festival, but this year, for some unknown reason, he got permission from Boss Zhao.

No, as soon as he came back, he begged Boss Zhao to transfer him back to Bianliang in public.

Shen Ji thought, Wang Jixun was allowed to come back to participate in the Changchun Festival this year, maybe it has something to do with Zhao Defang, after all he is Zhao Defang's biological uncle.

After Boss Zhao visited Yujin Garden last year and took Zhao Defang with him, the father and son visited Xiangguo Temple and the school grounds together several times, so it was hard to guarantee that Boss Zhao allowed Wang Jixun to come back because of Zhao Defang's face.

Wang Jixun above the main hall also thinks so, he thinks this is his chance, as long as Boss Zhao softens his heart, for the sake of his nephew, he will definitely agree to let him come back.

But he didn't know what "Unpredictable King's Heart" meant, Boss Zhao just gave him a quiet look and didn't speak.

Perhaps it was because of this kind of incident that many people were not in the mood to enjoy the dance music, and they were worried that Boss Zhao would really ask to let this devil king come back.

It wasn't until the performance of martial arts that Boss Zhao's face was quite happy.This is the method he used to train soldiers himself!

Zhao Guangyi, who was at the bottom, looked at it and asked, "Isn't this boxing technique created by Brother Huang when he was training soldiers?"

Everyone reacted, echoed one after another, and then flattered Boss Zhao without changing their expressions, the voice was so loud that even the officials and eunuchs outside the hall could hear.

Boss Zhao was very happy to see that his goal had been achieved.

Wang Jixun was displeased with Boss Zhao's ambiguous attitude, so he brought it up again, but Boss Zhao just said indifferently: "Stay well in Xijing!"

In fact, he has always had an idea: he wants to move the capital to Luoyang!

The terrain in Bianliang is not good. With the loss of Yanyun sixteen prefectures, if Khitan sent troops southward, Bianliang would become a target and easily captured.

So he came up with the idea of ​​moving the capital to Luoyang, but it is a pity that after nearly a hundred years of development in Bianliang, too many people have accumulated wealth and power here, and it is even more difficult to persuade them to move the capital.

In addition, he had to spend his time trying to pacify the Liu regime in the south of the Yangtze River and the north, and he couldn't spare time to plan the relocation of the capital. He let his brother-in-law stay in Luoyang, so it was not his own thinking about moving the capital?

It's a pity that Wang Jixun didn't know what he was thinking, he only knew that this brother-in-law was very unfeeling to him, and he became more and more annoyed.

It so happened that he saw a palace slave playing the pipa not far away from Jiaofangsi, and felt that she was very beautiful, so he wanted to leave.

He didn't dare to ask someone in front of Boss Zhao, so when the palace banquet was over and the servants of the Jiaofang Division also walked out of the palace gate to disperse, he found the judge of the Jiaofang Division, and while offering money to bribe him, he threatened and lured him. Forced the judge to quietly hand over the palace slave who played the pipa, and let him take it away.

As for how to deal with the lack of people in Jiaofang Division?In the absence of Cao Bing, the envoy of Xuanhui, and all the affairs of the Jiaofang Division are handled by the judge, he does not need to report to anyone. Anyway, the Jiaofang Division has lost a person, and it is enough to find someone to replace him. Boss Zhao will not know. .

Half a month later, in order to avoid bringing Shen Ji a bad reputation and trouble, Lu Nianchuan, who never went to Shen's house, came to Shen's house for the first time, and asked Shen Ji for help for the first time.

The author says:

The most perverted character in this article appeared.

If you are interested, you can look up "Wang Jixun" (note, it is not another general with the same name and surname, but Boss Zhao's brother-in-law)
