Chapter 870: The Old Things Are Revisited
"The laurel tree blooms and falls out of the intestines, and I don't want my father to come and my mother. I don't want to be a parent-child sister at home, I think my little sister wants to lose her intestines. "Zhao Yu also let it go, regardless of his 'face' and sang with Li Sanniang again, and this time it was even more 'explicit'.
"The laurel tree blooms and falls out of the intestines, and I don't want my father to come and my mother. I don't want my brother to come or my sister, I only want my little lover in my heart. "And Li Sanniang is obviously not a 'good type', she is also not to be outdone, and she doesn't care about the surprised eyes of the people on the side.
"My sister thinks my brother is in my heart, and my brother laughs when he sees my little sister. As long as my little sister likes me, I will ask you to live. "Zhao Yu is also harmonious, in modern times, these lyrics and songs are nothing at all, but in this era, they are deviant and despised, and he, the emperor, is no different from 'rebellion'.
"I beg you to live a life, live a ...... life" and at this time, someone suddenly sang again, and Zhao Yu looked at the guards and soldiers of the guard battalion. At that time, the Song army was stationed in Qiongzhou for a long time, and a large number of soldiers were recruited from it, and there were many Qiongzhou slang people in the guard camp.
"My brother said that my sister is smart, and you drag my little sister to be your lover. You bring your little sister home, and I will be your sweetheart. Seeing that there were soldiers of the same clan involved, Li Sanniang became even more interested and made peace.
"I'll be your sweetheart, alas, sweetheart......" Chen Shu didn't know when she walked to Li Sanniang's side and sang loudly for her.
"My sister will be my sweetheart, and I will ask you to enter the door. Holding small hands in pairs, everyone praises their lovers. Zhao Yu was a little surprised, Chen Shu, as the daughter of an official eunuch, especially her father Chen Renweng, who had been leading the troops for many years, was more taught by Chen Zeweng. And she has always been known for being stern, so it is impossible for Chen Shu not to know the power of it, but she still stepped forward to help sing. This shows that he has a very strong sense of justice and cannot see people being deliberately excluded; On the other hand, it is also a support for himself, although there is a suspicion of blind obedience, but it also shows the depth of his affection for himself.
Zhao Yu and Chen Shu have known each other since childhood, but with his psychological age, he is just a rude and willful little girl in his eyes, more like a coquettish little sister, so he tolerates and accommodates her everywhere, coaxing her to play, of course, it is impossible to think of the future. And as he grew older, he also found that Chen Shu seemed to have something more in his eyes, as if he had become attached to him, and he felt even worse during the period of time he got along after entering Jiangnan.
And today's events made Zhao Yu see that Chen Shu was devoted to herself, she knew that it was impossible, but she still ran for the palace, and at this time she also knew that she would be punished, but she still stood firmly on her side. On the other hand, those show girls were either stunned, or red-faced and heartbeat, or thoughtful, but no one, including Wu Xi, dared to take a step beyond Lei Chi, which corresponds to the lyrics of 'Love songs are still old'.
"Everyone praises their lovers, and we go to the world. I don't love thousands of people, I only love you, little brother. Over there, Li Sanniang and Chen Shu sang in unison.
"Lang wants to be a sister and sister wants to be Lang, the two of them are panicking...... Zhao Yu figured out that he didn't care about the joints, he was the emperor, in addition to being helped with the old antiques, what could he do with himself, so he simply let it go......
Zhao Yu let go, and he didn't end until the bright moon fell, but after a night of carnival, everyone had their own experience. Thinking about what the little emperor did at night, everyone found that except for Li Sanniang and Chen Shu, he did not have any hints and intimate expressions to anyone. But everyone knows that Li Sanniang's slang background has already decided that she cannot become the main palace, even if she has already made a marriage contract with the queen mother; Although Chen Shu's background is high, her father and uncle are in important positions in the court, and according to the old practice of preventing relatives from usurping power, she will not be allowed to enter the main palace.
For a while, all the show girls were confused, especially the few people who entered the second election were also worried, and the little emperor didn't seem to have an excessive affection for them, and he had always treated each other politely. And they know very well that this time to accompany the queen mother to worship the spirit and worship the moon in the temple is actually an informal meeting with the little emperor, and the candidates for the queen and the concubines of the palace are determined from among them. And it is obviously based on the opinion of the little emperor, and even if it is re-elected, it will still be brushed off.
In the early morning, after the women accompanied the Queen Mother and the little emperor to offer incense to the Queen Mother, they drove back to the palace, and there was no clue on the face of the Queen Mother, so they could only come with great interest and return with a heavy heart. After Zhao Yugong sent the Queen Mother away, of course, he went back to the house to make up for sleep after breakfast, and even Wang De couldn't see any joy and anger on his face.
After tossing for a night, Zhao Yu actually didn't have no plans, but he had his own little abacus. He knows that his marriage interest is a tool to balance the forces of the DPRK and China, but his preference is not the first, and his power is just to be able to manipulate the cards in his hand well, which one can be used as a 'rocket', which one can be used as a 'bomb', which one can be used as a straight to go out, and which ones are just to fill the number.
According to Zhao Hao's thoughts, Wu Xi, this girl is not bad in general, not only in general knowledge, but also in organizational ability, she can be regarded as virtuous and virtuous, and she is also a little courageous, and she is not indispensable as a candidate for the queen. It's just that he was not satisfactory in the final section of the mountain song, and at this moment Wu Xi retreated and did not stand on the same front as him, which made him very disappointed, which showed that his loyalty was not good, and he was likely to do something that contradicted his wishes at a critical moment.
But the selection of concubines has been carried out by this time, and it is basically finalized by this time, and the re-election is only a matter of pulling out the general. Among the several people, their looks are put aside, Zhang Ping is cowardly, Wang Yu is young, and Lei Yan lacks organizational skills. Cheng Su is talented and organized, but his morality is not good, he is greedy for enjoyment, his words and deeds are mean, selfish, and he does not care about the overall situation. Therefore, relatively speaking, only Wu Xi can still get on the stage.
Zhao Yu also knows that no one is perfect and cannot be too demanding. But loyalty is a hard injury, and if you don't get it right, you will stab yourself in the back, so you have to be restrained in the last resort. And Li Sanniang and Chen Shu's conditions are a little lacking in terms of talent and sophistication compared with other women, but loyalty is absolutely no problem.
Besides, Chen Shu can't be outstanding in singing and dancing, but after all, she is from an official family, and things like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting can also cope with the past. Although the elves are eccentric and like to have a little temper, they can also understand the general situation, have a sense of justice, and can unite people; As for Li Erniang, she received a sinology education in Qiongzhou, but there is still a big gap between her and those scholarly families and eunuchs who have a family history, but she has strengths that others do not have, she has a certain military quality, and can lead the army to fight, that is a good big hand, who dares to make a mistake for himself without taking action himself, his head will be cut off.
So Zhao Yu pondered that if Wu Xi was the squad leader to preside over the class affairs, then Chen Shu could be used as a political commissar to restrain him. Li Erniang is the deputy squad leader and protector of the law, in charge of the harem and maintaining order. As for the other girls, the long-legged sister Wang Yu can be a member of the cultural and sports committee, in charge of the education department, and in charge of entertainment; Lei Yan is good at managing family finances, and can be a member of the living committee to manage the financial expenses in the palace; As for Zhang Ping, his grandfather is known as 'Man Chaohuan', thinking that after he enters the palace, he will definitely be able to change his melancholy personality, mix with good popularity, and be competent as an organization member, and there should be no problem in presiding over a banquet and party.
Thinking of the end, Zhao Hao felt that he was funny, where the hell is marrying a daughter-in-law to live, it is clearly a team. But if you think about it, isn't it just to form a harem, this is also a small unit, and you have to work normally to maintain the stability of your backyard. But he also knows that the Heavenly Family is like this, and while he wants to live, he must also think of balancing the forces of all parties in the court and consider the problem politically......
"Official, after the Governor and Governor Liu worship the spirit, ask for an audience!" Wang De came into the house to pray.
"Well, it's time to think about it, how are they looking?" Zhao Yu nodded, it has been three days since the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the person who 'Xingshi asks for sin' should also arrive, he did not say please, but first asked the attitude of the two.
"Official, the two of them don't look very good, and Governor Ying doesn't smile at all, do you want to block it a little?" Wang De knew that the little emperor was not afraid of heaven and earth, but he was most afraid of his master. Yuan Miao naturally ranks first, and it is often the addition of fists and feet; The festival should be strictly ranked second, once there is a sincere teaching of quoting scriptures, you have to convince your majesty to say that you must bow your head and admit your mistakes; The third is naturally Deng Guangjian, who rarely smiles, always holding the master's shelf, as long as he makes a slight mistake, he is admonished; For Jiang Xuan, the little emperor is not afraid, the relationship is more like a teacher and a friend, and he can cook tea and laugh well.
"That's not necessary, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, please!" Zhao Yu pondered for a moment and said as if he had made up his mind.
"Yes, the little one will go and preach." Wang De looked at the little emperor as if he were at home, and said secretly in his heart.
"Well, let's go to the tearoom!" Zhao Yu waved his hand and said.
"See Your Majesty!"
"Two gentlemen, excuse me, hurry up!" Zhao Yu changed his body, washed up again and moved to the tea room next door, Ying Jieyan and Liu Huang stepped forward to salute, and he hurriedly hugged each other.
"Your Majesty's tea is good!" Seeing that the ceremony was over, the three of them sat down around a coffee table, and Xiao Huangmen immediately sent the brewed tea to him.
"This is sent by the monks in the temple, saying what kind of famous tea, but I drink tea just to quench my thirst, where can I taste good or bad!" Zhao Hao smiled.
"Your Majesty, this Jiqing Temple has its own tea garden, among which there are three ancient trees, and it can only be picked ten catties every year, and after concoction, it can only be a dozen or two high-quality products, which is hard to find, but Your Majesty only needs to quench your thirst, which is a pity." Liu Huang listened to it and said quite distressedly.
"Hehe, how do you say that the goods are sold to the treasure people, I am a tyrannical thing!" Zhao Hao laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Your Majesty should know yourself!" Ying Jieyan listened to it, but said with a straight face.
"What the gentleman said is that I will send some to the mansion after a while." Zhao Hao said with a smile.
"Alas, Your Majesty has not been in court for several months since the Queen Mother listened to the government, and he is free all day long, so he is not afraid of chaos?" Ying Jieyan's face slowed down when he heard this, and he sighed.
"Sir, I have been cultivating in the other garden, this is a well-known thing in the court, and recently I was ordered by the Queen Mother to come here with the coffin of the Queen Mother, and pray for the blessing of the undead, how can it be said that it is free?" Zhao Yu listened to the aggrieved face, but in his heart he secretly wondered what was wrong with the old man, and he didn't play the cards according to his expectations?
"Your Majesty also knows that after the Queen Mother moved to Qiongzhou on her own, she retired to the harem and was no longer a director. At the moment, because of His Majesty's illness, he has to look at things in the court, but at present, Jiangnan has just stabilized, government affairs are complicated, and the Queen Mother is powerless. Ying Jieyan frowned.
"Governor Liu, isn't there nothing major in the DPRK and China these days? The Queen Mother didn't mention it before! Zhao Yu was a little confused, looked at the old man, and then looked at Liu Huang and said.
"This matter has been disputed for a long time, but it has been on the rise again recently!" Liu Huang took another sip of tea.
"What the hell is going on?" Zhao Yu listened and looked at the two and asked urgently.
"When His Majesty was in Qiongzhou, he set the Privy Council headed by the military generals, and the military department was headed by the civil ministers, who were in charge of military affairs, but recently, some ministers wrote to the Queen Mother that they wanted to restore the old system, and the civil ministers and the Privy Council were also headed, and Zhang Shijie was removed from the position of the privy envoy. The Queen Mother handed it over to the Chinese book to hold a court meeting. If it is achieved, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the warriors and cause turmoil! Ying Jieyan sighed.
"Why is it that after a few days of stable life, you have to make trouble again, have you forgotten the shame of losing your country?" Zhao Yu slapped the table and said angrily.
Zhao Yu knew that there were only two merits since ancient times, first, promotion; Second, give money. Needless to say, money was too common in the Song Dynasty, and the problem was focused on official positions. In fact, since the founding of the Song Dynasty, there have been many people who have served as privy envoys with military backgrounds. For example, Wu Tingzuo, Li Chongju, Chu Zhaofu, Wang Xian, Zhang Xun, Chai Yuxi, Wang Jiying, Ma Zhijie, Cao Yong, Zhang Qi, Xia Shouyun, Wang Deyong and others.
But there is a difference, military positions and generals are not the same, such as the famous Cao Yu, he played a big role in the front line during the alliance of the Yuanyuan, but has he been to the scene of the killing? Have you ever cut anyone with your own hands? This is the difference, for example, a civil official, after being a privy envoy, that is, he has had military experience, but his essence, that is, the degree of danger, is still a civil official, and he will not be noticed by the official places of the Song Dynasty.
Of course, there are some alternatives, such as Wang Deyong. This is a real general, but when he became a privy envoy, to be precise, he was already a former general. He beat Li Jiqian when he was young, and fought against the Empress Dowager Xiao when he was young, and then he was silent for decades, whether he wanted it or not, he could only lie on the merit book and sleep, until he was too old to be promoted, and became the first high-ranking privy envoy of the military......
