Chapter 21: The Little Assassin

The victory of Guangyuan City reached Kaifeng, and the people of Kaifeng shouted long live the official family, and the official family was mighty. After dinner, he was talking about Tang Ning, the victorious general of the Great Song Dynasty, who seemed to have never failed in the battles he participated in.

The people didn't know how to think in more depth, but Zhao Xu's feelings about the victory of Guangyuan City were a little subtle.

It's impossible to say he's unhappy. Guangyuan Prefecture was given away by his father, as a son can take back this place, it is undoubtedly to make up for his father's mistakes, and when he sees his father under Jiuquan in the future, he can also pat his chest and talk to his old man.

However, the purpose of this expedition to Cochin was not for the sake of Guangyuan Prefecture and land, but entirely for the treasures in the Cochin Palace of Thang Long Mansion.

Let's say he's happy, he's not particularly happy. In short, he felt that everything was a little bit worse.

"Originally, General Tang was preparing to besiege Guangyuan City for a few days, and after attracting all the nearby reinforcements, he turned around and ran, and went directly to Shenglong Mansion.

But unexpectedly, clashes broke out between the people of Jiaozhi and the defenders in the city. A turmoil made it easy to capture Guangyuan City, so General Tang entered Guangyuan City. ”

Zhang Duan explained the ins and outs of Zhao Xu, and in the end, he stroked his beard, sighed and said, "Alas, General Tang cannot be blamed for this matter. Under the circumstances at that time, this Guangyuan City was like a piece of fat sent to the mouth, how could there be any reason not to eat it?

Even if it's an old man, it's hard to hold it in that situation. ”

Zhao Xu sighed and said with a smile: "I definitely don't blame him, no matter what, opening up territory for my holy dynasty is a great achievement."

But what should Guangyuan City do? Now that the treasury is empty, if you don't get something to fill the treasury at Jiaozhi, I'm afraid you won't be able to meet the expenses of General Tang. ”

"Hmm...... That's just as well. Zhang Dian sighed: "However, General Tang captured the treasury of Guangyuan City and obtained a large amount of grain, grass and money.

Half of them were distributed to the soldiers, and the other half were also sold to local merchants at a low price and exchanged for Jiaozi.

It's seven thousand five hundred taels in total,......," Zhang Dian said, pulling out a thick stack of Jiaozi from his sleeve.

Zhao Xu stretched out his hand to catch it, and said with a wry smile: "Talking is better than nothing." After that, he handed Jiaozi to Zhang Dian again: "Take it and buy some moon cakes for everyone, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival soon." ”

Zhang Dian smiled and said, "Then Weichen first thanked the official for the reward for the other colleagues." ”

Zhao Xu waved his hand and said, "It's nothing." ”

After speaking, he rubbed his forehead again and said, "Zhang Qing, I'm a little tired." If nothing else, why don't you get here today? ”

Zhang Dian immediately nodded and said: "That Weichen retired first, the official family has a good rest, dragon body."

Matter. ”

"Hehe......" Regarding Zhang Dan's concern, Zhao Xu just laughed dryly. Then Zhang Duan retired, and Zhao Xu also frowned and got up and left the Wende Palace.

Recently, his physical condition has not been very good, and every day he can feel a little worse than yesterday. The advice given to him by the imperial doctor was to recuperate his body, not to be too tired, and not to be busy again at night after being busy during the day.

There are some things that the imperial doctor can't say directly, but Zhao Xu understands that one of the extraneous words of these words is to reduce pressure and abstain from sex by himself.

But these words sound simple, but in reality? Now I only have three children, all of them are daughters, and none of them have a son. Although Liu Qingjing gave birth to one for herself before, the child died when she was only three months old......

Anyway, before you leave, you have to leave a son to inherit the throne, right?

Otherwise, who will come? Let Zhao Yan? If you agree, the Queen Mother will not agree. That stubborn old woman, full of royal dignity and royal so-called decency.

Zhao Ji? Zhao Xu shook his head even more. With Zhao Ji's temperament, his initial performance must be good. But after a long time, he will reveal his true nature, forget it, he is the most unsuitable for this position.

Zhao Si? Zhao Mata? Forget it, these two children have the ability to bully others, if they didn't control the two of them, it would be light for the two of them to poke a hole in the sky.

With a deep sigh, Zhao Xu returned to the imperial study. Today he didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to lie in bed and make up for a good night's sleep.

I tossed with Liu Qingjing for half a night last night, hoping that she could get pregnant, and then give birth to a son for herself.

Lying on the bed, Zhao Xu began to think wildly. Lao Zhao's family has always been sparsely populated, and it was not easy to give birth to children, and most of the boys and girls died early. I don't know what the reason for this is.

One of the previous ones even suspected that the old Zhao family was cursed by the enemy, so he specially invited a real master to help take a look, but found nothing.

Zhao Xu thought more realistically, acting for Zhou Lisong, candlelight axe shadow...... Everything that is said is to be punished, and the old Zhao family has today, to be honest, it is not surprising......

Thinking wildly, Zhao Xu's eyelids gradually sank, and in the end, a slight snoring sound came out of his mouth.

Seeing this, Li Duzhi smiled lightly, and then tiptoed out of the imperial study, and gently closed the door, and stood guard for Zhao Xu at the door.

It was only about half an hour before a sound came from ahead.

"Princess Dekang, slow down, slow down! Beware of falling! If you fall, the slave's ass is going to bloom! ”

As soon as he heard this voice, Li Duzhi smiled. It was the daughter of the official family, Zhao Shao.

is just five years old this year, and he is usually very clingy to Zhao Xu. It seems to be for the blessings

Qing's early death is lingering, and Zhao Xu is also very fond of his second daughter.

Zhao Shao walked up to Li Duzhi and called out to Grandpa Li sweetly.

Li Duzhi suddenly smiled, and said with a smile: "The princess seems to be in a good mood today, and she came to the imperial study today, is she here to find the official's family?" ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Shao nodded heavily and said, "Is my father inside?" ”

"Yes." Li Duzhi nodded: "But the official family is sleeping, and now that he is sleeping soundly, I'm afraid I don't have time to play with you, princess." ”

"Yes...... Zhao Shao lowered his little head and thought about it, then raised his head and said, "Then can I go inside and accompany my father?" I promise not to wake up my father, I'll watch my father sleep! ”

"This ......" Li Duzhi was a little embarrassed, and there was not much time for the official family to get a good night's sleep. On the one hand, he was reluctant to refuse the cute little man in front of him, and on the other hand, he was reluctant to let Zhao Shao go in to wake up Zhao Xu.

"Okay! Grandpa Lee! Isn't it good? Zhao Shao grabbed Li Duzhi's sleeve and coquettishly: "I haven't seen my father for a day!" I miss him so much! ”

Li Duzhi was very helpless, and finally had to nod with a smile and said, "Okay, okay, the old slave will let you in." But let's talk about it first, don't wake up the officials! ”

"I promise you!" Zhao Shao assured loudly.

In this way, Li Duzhi smiled helplessly: "I really can't help you." After speaking, he opened the door of the imperial study and let Zhao Shao in.

As soon as Zhao Shao entered, he went straight to the kang where Zhao Xu was lying, and Li Duzhi couldn't stop him.

Zhao Xu slept in a daze, and he felt that he couldn't breathe. I thought it was a dream, but when I opened my eyes, I saw that it was my daughter pinching her nose.

Just now, I was thinking that if anyone dared to disturb his dreams, he would drag him out and beat him. Now that this is his daughter, where can Zhao Xu still be angry?

Reaching out and holding her up under her armpit, listening to her giggles, he feigned anger: "Say! What are you here for! Are you an assassin who has come to assassinate me? Why did you plug my nose?

1510 is all recruited, otherwise the punishment will be served! ”

Zhao Shao was very backbone, she said while laughing: "I don't say it!" Torture you! ”

"Okay, what I admire most is a person with backbone." After that, he gently put his daughter on the bed and began to scratch the soles of her feet.

"You don't say it! Do you say it or not? ”

"Hahaha...... Don't say it...... Hahaha...... Tickle ...... I said I said...... Don't scratch your father......"

Li Duzhi, who was standing at the door, let out a long sigh when he heard the movement coming from the imperial study. knew that if Zhao Shao was put in, she would definitely wake up the official family......
