Return to the Song Dynasty

Just after New Year's Day, the Empress Dowager fell ill again, and the imperial doctors had to treat her for many days before she recovered.

The empress dowager, the emperor and a group of princes also came here every day.Zhao Bi was even more worried about the Empress Dowager's health. Every day after school, he waited beside the Empress Dowager's bed, beating and massaging the Empress Dowager's legs. She only hoped that her grandmother would relieve some pain. Seeing that the Empress Dowager was getting better , this is relieved.

One day, the empress dowager sent away the others, leaving only the empress dowager.The queen mother knew that it must be the queen mother who had something to say to herself.

"Queen, what do you have to say, just tell me?"

"Aijia's body, Aijia knows that it is old and useless. Aijia has no regrets in this life. The emperor is now grown up. You are also a good person. Aijia is also relieved. But Xiaojiu My son, the Ai family really can't let go." The Empress Dowager sighed.

"Mother, what are you talking about, you will live a long life..." The empress dowager wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "I understand what you mean, I have already discussed with the officials, In the past few days, I have chosen a good day to issue an order to formally crown Bier as king, and the mansion has also been selected. It is near Xiangguo Temple, on Litong Street not far from Xuandemen, and it is convenient to enter the palace. The ministers in the court Most of them live nearby, and the mansion of the concubine's elder brother Zong Liang is also there, and he can take care of him when things happen. The fly in the ointment is that this mansion originally belonged to Liu Yirui, the former minister of Zhongshu who was dismissed from office, and it is not a new mansion."

Seeing that the Empress Dowager hadn't spoken, the queen mother continued: "The concubine thinks that the location of this house is really good, and the house itself is also very good, and it can be used after a little rest. If we choose an empty land to build a new house now, I'm afraid the time is too short... "

"Well, your thinking is reasonable, so let's do it this way, just don't wrong the child." The Empress Dowager sighed slightly.

"Mother, don't worry, the concubine saves it. When I turn around, the concubine asks the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to ask you what you mean, and see how to repair it?"

"Okay, okay..." The Empress Dowager shook hands with her, "Go and make arrangements, go."

Seven days later, the emperor decreed that the ninth son of the first emperor, Zhao Bi, should be crowned as the county king, titled Daning, and bestowed with a county palace, a thousand taels of gold, a hundred servants, and several other rewards.

On the seventh day of February, the auspicious day of the zodiac, it is advisable to break ground, relocate, and move into the house. Daning County King Zhao Bi officially bid farewell to the empress dowager, empress dowager, emperor, etc. His bodyguards, servants, boxes and cages, and many other things moved out of the palace in a mighty way, and moved into the Daning County Prince's Mansion on Litong Street outside Xuande Gate.

Looking at the gleaming "Daning County Prince's Mansion" on the gate of the palace, he thought of his life in the palace for so many years, his mother Wu Zhaoyuan, the empress dowager holding his hand and Zhao Ji...Zhao Bi took a deep breath He took a deep breath, shook his head, and entered with his hands behind his back.

For some reason, there was such a little nostalgia for the deep palace that once wanted to escape.

Whether it is nostalgia or escape, it is always a new beginning, but I don’t know where this beginning will go and where it will end...

After leaving the palace, Zhao Bi finally felt a little bit like being the master of the house, and his life was indeed much more comfortable.Zhao Bi is an idle prince without a real job. He doesn't need to go to court, and he is old again. He doesn't need to go to Wen Shizhai. Toys to present treasures to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager.

Zhao Ji would always run out of the palace to the county prince's mansion if he had nothing to do, and the little brothers Zhao Yu and Zhao Si would sometimes follow Zhao Ji to see what was new. Normally, the little princes were not allowed to leave the palace, so it was easy to have a The elder brother can go out of the palace to build a mansion, and it is rare for them to have an extra place to go, especially since there is no mistress in Zhao Yu's mansion, the brothers don't have to avoid suspicion, they are very happy to have fun.

"My place is going to become a kindergarten, can you bring a few less children when you come back next time?" Zhao Bi sat in the pavilion, watching the younger brothers who were competing to pull up the saplings, and had a headache, "That's because I just let the spring begin." Small saplings planted by people'.

"Hey, Brother Nine, it would be so sad for those little ones to hear your words. They are staring at me when they see the sky now. Whenever there is a trouble in me, they think that I am going out of the palace. Take them, and immediately go to sue the ladies and gentlemen of the palaces, it is not easy for my elder brother to offend everyone." Zhao Ji said while picking up a piece of honey cake. "Ninth brother, you can eat and play here, and no one is in charge. What a wonderful place, who wouldn't want to come. Well, ninth brother, you make pretty good cakes. Now everyone in the palace knows that you Tian idles around and studies culinary skills. It is said that a gentleman stays away from cooking, and everyone should stay away from you."

"Then don't eat it, spit it out for me, return the gentleman, don't eat the gentleman." Zhao Yu was furious, and stretched out his hand to pinch Zhao Ji's mouth, "Don't, don't, brother Jiu, do it as you say, I Didn’t you report to your brother, Brother Ninth, you have created a good image of not doing business properly, brother, are you going to hang around like this forever?” Zhao Ji hurriedly dodged to avoid Zhao Bi’s salty hands, and did not forget to take two more A small cake.

"Well, isn't that good? The guy at the last court meeting was already a little suspicious. Oh, didn't he just say something? As for it, it's really a needle in the bottom of my heart." Zhao Yu didn't think so, He rolled his eyes and looked up at the sky.

"Brother Jiu, you only said one sentence, but this sentence has changed the state of Guizhou, and it is a long-term strategy for Guizhou's long-term stability." Zhao Ji shook his head. "Ninth brother always doesn't have this consciousness. He has a free and easy that surpasses everything. He really doesn't care. Imperial power doesn't seem to be important to him, and he even has a kind of contempt in his bones.Stop, stop, stop thinking about such outrageous thoughts. '

"I just want to study my food well now, and be an idle prince who eats, drinks, and has fun. My ultimate ideal is to eat, eat and die. But there is a small problem that needs to be solved. I don't have enough money. Chick, look at us How about doing some business with a partner?" Zhao Bi rubbed his hands obscenely, and looked at Zhao Ji obsequiously.

"Stop, don't call me a chick. Ninth brother, you are already a prince. You should have a lot of salary. Are you still short of money?" Zhao Ji narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhao Bi. "Then what, you see, brother, this palace is so big, and you have to raise a large group of people, and you have to grow flowers and plants. How can the little money given by the court be enough?" Zhao Bi looked at Zhao Ji's suspicious eyes, and hurriedly returned Added a sentence, "Besides, I have to have some personal hobbies, and I have to save some private money."

'The salary given by the imperial court is quite a lot, more than enough to support a royal family, brother, you have regarded money as your life since you were young, alas, is your nature hard to change? 'Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Bi suspiciously, looked at Zhao Bi's pitiful starry eyes, and nodded, "I still have some manpower, which is given by my uncle, and they are all reliable. You can pick a few later, and I will give you the contract of sale." , I will treat it as a congratulatory gift from my younger brother. I am really not good at business, brother. If you are short of money, brother, there are some..."

Zhao Ji hadn't finished speaking, Zhao Bi had already jumped up excitedly and gave him a bear hug, and even tried to go up to kiss him, "Chicken, you are such a good person, brother loves you so much, okay~" "Hey, Jiu Brother, what are you doing, get down!" Zhao Ji hastily put his hands against Zhao Bi's shameless face, and hurriedly broke free from Zhao Bi's arms.Zhao Ji was a true ancient man, he had never seen such a battle, but he was really frightened.Zhao Bi was also too excited, forgetting himself, and felt embarrassed when he realized it.But Zhao Bi is thick-skinned enough, he doesn't blush and doesn't breathe, and is about to tease Zhao Ji again, "(⊙o⊙) Uh, what are you doing, Brother Nine and Brother Eleven?" After finishing the saplings, I have seen them for a long time...

On that day, Zhao Bi and Zhao Ji were bathed in the probing gazes of all the little brothers, until Zhao Ji returned to the palace with a bunch of little tails, Zhao Bi was relieved.

A few days later, Zhao Bi took Li Lin into the palace to discuss business with Zhao Ji, and agreed with Zhao Ji to let Zhao Ji invest in shares. Since Zhao Ji also gave him two useful servants, Zhao Bi decided to share the account with Zhao Ji. Of course it is Zhao Biqi and Zhao Jisan.Zhao Ji didn't have any objections either, anyway, he just had nothing to do to support his brother, and he didn't expect to make any money.So, the little prince Zhao Bi was very satisfied, "Brothers are too good", Zhao Bi put his hand on Zhao Ji's shoulder, hugged Zhao Ji, and was about to have a friendly exchange between brothers.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Eleventh, the villain greets your Highnesses. The Empress Dowager invites you to the Ningshou Palace." The eunuch Xu Lu greeted the two Highnesses while secretly thinking, "Oh my god, in the palace. It is a true story, His Highness the Ninth Highness really has something to do with His Highness the Eleventh, how good this is, the villain must report to the Empress Dowager, and she is going to show His Highness the Ninth Highness to see his daughter-in-law Well, whoops. '

Zhao Bi and Zhao Ji didn't know that Xu Lu could be so brainy with his serious and wrinkled old face.Zhao Bi said goodbye to Zhao Ji, and asked Li Lin to lead the newly recruited brothers Lu Xi and Lu Qing to wait for him outside the palace gate, and then followed Xu Lu to Ningshou Palace.

"You're here, let the Ai family take a look." As soon as Zhao Bi entered the door, he was called to the front by the Empress Dowager. "Hey, Empress Mother, you are really biased. The concubine comes to you every day. Why don't I see you? Let the concubine show you." The queen mother joked to Shi. "Our son has really grown up, and the longer he grows, the more handsome he is. Come, let the queen mother take a good look at it."

Zhao Bi was confused by the empress dowager and the empress dowager to look left and right, up and down, and he almost walked around on a catwalk.

The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager looked at each other, "My son, what do you think of the Privy Councilor Ma's family?" The Empress Dowager Xiang asked.

"Ma's family? Ma Qi's family? It's very good. Ma Qi's people are nice. I heard that their brothers are also very harmonious..." Zhao Bi asked inexplicably, but still tried his best to organize the words to his classmate Ma Qi It's good to say, after all, Ma Qi is really good. 'Well, he looks good too. Zhao Yu, a senior member of the Appearance Association, thought. "It's a matter of heart, it still makes sense, you can see that my brother is so graceful. '

"Well, that's good. The Ai family and your mother want to hire you a young lady from the Ma family as a concubine. Do you think it's good?" The Empress Dowager looked at Zhao Bi with a smile. "Ah?" Zhao Bi froze for a moment, opened his mouth wide, and looked so stupid, as if he had swallowed a big goose egg.

Puchi, Queen Mother Xiang couldn't help laughing, "Hey, why are you looking like this? Are you so happy? Excited?"

"Mother, no, I, I'm still young, why, why do you want to hire a princess?" Only then did Zhao Bi realize it, and hurriedly said.
