When he grabbed the official robe and was stunned, Tang Ning suddenly found that a sign had fallen on the ground. Leaning over to pick up the sign, Donnie remembered that it was given to him by Zhao Xu.

He invited himself to give advice on his great cause of Zhongxing, and was not discouraged by his ruthless refusal, and gave himself a waist card that seemed to have free access to the palace.

Tang Ning originally thought that this thing would not be used for the rest of his life, but now that he wants to solve the problem in front of him, he still has to rely on this thing.

Holding the waist card, it was too late to explain to Zhou Huai. Dressed in civilian clothes, he hurriedly walked out of the camp in a long way.

None of the civil and military ministers standing at the main gate of the camp and scolding the street thought that Tang Ning would choose to ignore them and go directly to the emperor to complain.

He hired a carriage at the gate of the city and went straight to the palace, which was five hundred paces away, and the coachman did not dare to go any further. It is said that once the idlers and others step within 500 paces, they will be shot by the guards on the city wall with eight-bull crossbows. Although he had never seen it with his own eyes, he had grown up listening to such words since he was a child, and his fear had long been ingrained in his heart.

Tang Ning was also stunned when he heard this, strictly speaking, he was also an idle person.

What did you do when you came to see the emperor this time? I didn't come to defect, but to ask the emperor to help solve the problem. It's just a few ministers who are good at scolding the street, but it's not a big problem, and they came to the emperor for help, maybe people still think this favor is too small.

I was thinking wildly, but my footsteps didn't stop. Someone shouted at the head of the city to stop, and Tang Ning stopped and looked up at the soldiers on the city wall.

"What?"

"I want to see the official!"

"Get out! Where did the idiot come from! Is the official family also what you say you want to see? ”

"I have a waist card!"

"Oh? Give me Kangkang! The guards at the head of the city went down the city tower with a sigh, ran to Tang Ning's side with a smoke, and then took the waist card from Tang Ning's hand, and looked at it and suddenly changed his expression.

Changing into a flattering expression, the soldier respectfully handed the waist card back to Tangning.

"Lord Duzhi, please come in." The soldier spoke, but in his heart he wondered. I've been a guard in the Imperial City for many years, and I know that I shouldn't have heard of it at such a young age.

But after thinking about it, the soldier no longer doubted. After all, he was stabbed in the middle of his legs, so it's nothing to change officials.

Tang Ning didn't know what this man was thinking, but he looked at him with awe at him, and he felt very good in his heart. It seems that the identity of this waist card is not low, and Zhao Xu treats himself really well.

The soldier asked a palace maid, and the palace maid said that the official family was reading a book in the study. After learning of this, the soldiers carried Tang Ning and ran all the way towards Zhao Xu's study.

When I came to the door, I suddenly heard a heart-rending cough from the hall. The little eunuch who was guarding the door hurriedly rushed in, and turned back to close the door.

The soldier respectfully said to Tang Ning: "You know the lord, the villain will take you here." ”

Tang Ning nodded and thanked him, and the soldier retreated in fear.

Standing at the door of the main hall, the coughing sound inside was long-lasting. Tang Ning felt his throat tighten when he heard it, and the coughing still didn't stop.

I don't know how long it took for the coughing sound in the temple to gradually disappear. The little eunuch who rushed in just now looked down at his palm and walked out, and when he saw Tang Ning, who was standing outside thoughtfully, he hurriedly put his hand into his cuffs, and said nervously: "You ......"

Although it was only a fleeting moment, Tang Ning still caught a glimpse of the red on the little eunuch's palm.

Pretending not to see it, he arched his hand, and Tang Ning lowered his head and said: "The soldiers and horses of the Zhenjiang Army are under the jurisdiction of Tang Ning to ask to see him, and the Lord Lao is bothered to notify the official family." ”

The little eunuch pointed at Tang Ning and said in surprise: "Oh, you are ......" At this point, he closed his mouth and said nothing. With a smile on his face, he said, "Later, my lord, the slave and maid will go to the official's house." ”

After that, he knocked on the door and said in a loud voice: "Official! The soldiers and horses of the Zhenjiang army are under the jurisdiction of Tang Ning and ask to see him! ”

After a few seconds of silence, a weak voice came from within: "Enter!" ”

The little eunuch pushed open the door and raised his head at Tang Ning, who immediately followed.

It was still the hall where I met Zhao Xu last time, but this time the hall was filled with a strong smell of medicine. Zhao Xu leaned weakly on the back of the chair, and there was not much blood on his handsome face.

looked at the door of the main hall without focus, and when he saw Tang Ning coming in, his eyes seemed to have found a landing point.

He laughed softly and said weakly, "You're here." ”

Tang Ning only knew this time that if it was not a very formal and serious occasion in the Song Dynasty, there was no need to kneel when he saw the emperor. For a normal bow, a larger bow is sufficient.

"We're looking at the official family." Tang Ning bowed ninety degrees and said in a solemn voice.

Zhao Xu laughed again, his face was a little more bloody, and his physical strength seemed to have recovered. Sitting up, he raised his eyebrows at Tang Ning and said, "What, don't kneel this time?" ”

Tang Ning was very embarrassed, scratched his head and said: "The ministers are capable of people in the mountains and wilderness, and they don't know etiquette. After I went back yesterday, I was scolded when I told the master all these things, and then the master taught the minister these basic etiquette......"

Speaking of this, Tang Ning bowed again and said, "...... The official family is magnanimous, and he laughs at the overstepping of the micro-ministers, and he is really the king of the holy and the virtuous lord. ”

Zhao Xu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, when I see you, you always say these useless words, although it sounds quite refreshing......" Then he reached out and took a small bowl of water handed over by the eunuch next to him, and drank it slowly.

Tang Ning raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Xu, it seems that history says that Zhao Xu is not in good health, which is true. is already frail and sickly, and has lived in the deep palace for a long time, lacking exercise. Over time, it will cause weakness and weakness.

Zhao Xu

is another emperor who likes to do it himself, and he became ill after hard work, and the accumulation of the two phases led to Zhao Xu's untimely death.

When he was standing outside the door just now, Tang Ning was thinking about who was coughing inside, if it was someone else, coughing for so long would have been thrown out. didn't see anyone thrown out, so it could only be Zhao Xu coughing.

"Tell me, what are you coming to me for?" Zhao Xu drank more than half of it, and there was still the bottom of the bowl left, so he didn't continue to drink. Putting the bowl on the table, he asked with a smile at Downing.

As soon as he finished speaking, he coughed lightly twice.

Tang Ning hurriedly said: "After Weichen went back yesterday, he tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep all night. The official family treats the ministers with courtesy, but the micro-ministers have repeatedly rejected the kindness of the officials.

Wechen's conscience was greatly condemned, and then Wechen thought that as a subject of the Great Song Dynasty, he should naturally contribute to the Great Song Dynasty, so Wechen came to see the official family today, wanting to make a modest contribution to the revival of the Holy Dynasty. ”

Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. Pointing at Tang Ning, he couldn't breathe with a smile.

It took a long time for Zhao Xu to stop laughing, rubbing his eyes and saying, "Tang Ning, Tang Ning, you guy is really ...... Really...... Hypocrisy! ”

Tang Ning said righteously: "What did the official family say? What Wei Chen just said, every sentence is true, it is what Wei Chen thinks in his heart and what he says from the bottom of his heart. It has nothing to do with hypocrisy! ”

Zhao Xu pouted and said: "Obviously, the ministers who were scolded by you were cornered, so they came to me for help, and now they say that these are all your heartfelt words."

If it weren't for this, would you still be able to think of it? Tangning, I know more about you than you think. That's why I can't stress enough that you don't have to pretend in front of me.

I don't care if you have respect for me, or not. What I value is your talents, and as long as you are loyal to the pilgrimage and used by me, I will not pay attention to your slightest flaw. ”

Tang Ning blushed, and he had a sense of shyness that he had been stripped naked and thrown in front of Zhao Xu. But for him to admit, it was impossible. Twisting his neck, he said: "What Weichen said is true!" ”

Zhao Xu didn't bother to argue with him, and waved his hand with a smile: "Okay, okay, what you said is true, I misunderstood you." ”

After that, he called the eunuch who came to hand the water before, and whispered a few words in his ear. The eunuch nodded in response, and then withdrew.

Zhao Xu put his hands on the table, leaned forward, raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Ning and said, "I'll help you solve your troubles, but what are you going to repay me with?" ”

Tang Ning hesitated for a moment and said, "Money, okay?" ”

"Haha, okay, let's get a million taels of gold to suppress me first!"

"There's not that much money...... Is it okay to pay for meat? ”

"It's fine."

"Huh?"
