Just two people touted, one person excused himself, and entered Xihuamen in a kind and steady manner. Now Hong Tao feels much more relaxed, compared with seeing the emperor, the people on the street are more terrifying, if someone gives him an arrow, he can't hide, live target!

And Hong Tao has learned another lesson, in the future, if this kind of thing may happen, you must first wear a full set of armor, and you must not stupidly change into the robe of a civil official to fill the big one, everything is nonsense, and it is important to save your life.

"Your Majesty, the minister and the king are fortunate not to be dishonored, may my emperor live long live long live...... "It is still a Chongzheng Palace, or a familiar furnishing. After Hong Tao entered the house, he quickly clenched his fists and bowed deeply, full of long live.

But in my heart, I was thinking, there is no other place to go in this Nima Palace, and staying in a house that has not changed for decades all day is easy to annoy even if it is made of gold.

"No courtesy...... Wang Xu, I suddenly summoned you back to Beijing, and left the Huangzhou family business to take care of, but did you curse in your heart? ”

Emperor Shenzong took off his glasses and raised his head, looking at this brother-in-law as if he was a little strange. It wasn't so dark when I left the year before last, and this time I came back to catch up with the slender man by the Bianhe River.

"Back to Your Majesty, those are the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty, the ministers send people to keep an eye on it, whether the ministers are here or not, as long as they follow the rules, throw a piece of meat and find a dog." Hong Tao looked up, and the emperor was the only one in the room, and it seemed that he should not talk about too formal issues today.

"The horse is cautious, this is the Chongzheng Palace, which cannot be made." Pei Ying didn't go with the team, but it was not clear how he returned to the Imperial City first. Anyway, at this time, the old eunuch had already changed into his regular clothes, and after standing on the emperor's right side as before, it seemed that he had never left.

"Be careful...... Forget it, don't be embarrassed for him, I have just met the three princes, but they are a lot stronger and a lot darker, I heard that they have also killed the enemy in battle, and they are much stronger than me. ”

The Emperor waved his hand slightly, and the brother-in-law had not spoken carefully since he had been hit with madness, and he often spoke as soon as he picked up his mouth, regardless of the occasion or the audience. It's not enough to describe those words, and it's more civilized to talk about cats and dogs.

"Hey, hey, hey...... Lao Tzu is a hero, the three princes are not mortals, and there is nothing to teach in the belly of the minister, so he can only get a good body. Your Majesty looked at Weichen's arm, it has been a big circle in the past few years, and if you fight the Flying Eagle again, Your Majesty may not be an opponent. ”

As soon as he heard that the princes had also entered the palace, Hong Tao let go of a large piece of his heart. For two years, I held three land mines all day long, and finally didn't blow up, this is luck.

"Alas, now I can't even beat Qianyu, I can only take the harem concubines out of anger, but ......" When it comes to the body, Emperor Shenzong's voice is full of loneliness, who doesn't want to have a good body, but he really can't maintain it according to his brother-in-law's ideas, not because he has no conditions but because he has no time.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not......" Hong Tao felt that his uncle was more than two years older than the previous year, in his early thirties, his sideburns were one-third whiter, his eyes were blue, his lips were purple, and he was panting rapidly.

"Don't talk about the physical thing, I know it myself. I just want to ask you one thing, if you follow the letter, you can be sure to get back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun! ”

Emperor Shenzong knew what his brother-in-law was going to say, and he would mention it almost every time they met. He couldn't do it when he was tired of listening, so he simply didn't listen. He put on his glasses and picked up two pieces of paper, and as he asked questions, he flicked the pieces of paper with his fingers, making a crackling sound.

"Your Majesty forgives your respect, if the war starts in a hurry, our dynasty will probably not be able to afford the attrition of the enemy on two fronts. I don't think that the Western Xia will be a watcher, what they are waiting for is a big war between our dynasty and the northern dynasty, and then wait for the opportunity to move, and they must be guarded against. ”

Hong Tao felt that his letter did not seem to have a positive effect, but gave the emperor an illusion and made him more confident in the Northern Expedition. Obviously, some of the contents of the letter did not attract the attention of the emperor, and he had to explain it emphatically.

"You don't have to worry about the problems of the Western Xia, I am not a faint king who does not understand military affairs, how can I believe the oath of the Western Xia people. Just tell me how many soldiers, how much time, and how sure it will take you to lead this Northern Expedition. ”

As soon as a person's body is weak, his temper will be great. The current Emperor Shenzong is like a terminally ill patient, who can't listen to other people's opinions at all, and he is trying to drill the horns of the bull.

"Your Majesty means that you will not transfer troops from the northwest, and only let the ministers use the soldiers and horses of the Hebei and Hedong roads?" Hearing that the emperor had said all the faint monarchs, Hong Tao didn't dare to go around in circles anymore.

The eldest brother is really anxious, he is still a patient. As the saying goes, a person who is held by illness cannot be reasoned, and if he does not follow him, it may really be counterproductive.

“…… There is no Hedong Road, only two Hebei roads! I give you the same rights as Huangzhou, and after the matter is completed, you will be the king of my dynasty, and you will also serve as an assistant to the crown prince. ”

Emperor Shenzong was still a little embarrassed in the first half of the first half when he answered this question, but the more he spoke, the more excited he became, he stood up with his arms on the bookcase, and he already felt like he was gritting his teeth word by word.

"Ahh The minister ...... "This time it was Hong Tao's turn to be dumbfounded, he had thought about countless possibilities on the way, but he didn't expect Emperor Shenzong to be so desperate."

What does the word king mean? That's the treatment that only the emperor's own son has. For example, the sixth prince Zhao Maid, he is currently the king of Yan'an County, and there are two words in front of the title, and the grade is not the highest.

In the future, if he can't be the emperor, he will have a one-word title when he becomes an adult, such as King Qi. This title is the end, there is only one level above, and that is the emperor.

Is there a person with a different surname who is crowned a king? Yes, such as King Guo Shouwen, King Zhao Pu of Han, King Murong Yanzhao of Henan, Shi Shouxin, King of Bohai, Gao Huaide, etc., there are one word and two word kings, but without exception they are posthumously sealed, which is completely an honor, and the princely treatment that should be enjoyed for half a day has not been enjoyed.

So what are the origins of these people? counted one by one, all of them were heroes who followed Song Taizu to fight the country, that is, their partners when they started their businesses. After the release of military power with a glass of wine, it is equivalent to receiving other people's voting shares, and this has to wait until death to give a title such as vice chairman.

Now Emperor Shenzong wants to make himself a living king, which is equivalent to breaking another ancestral system. This is not the end, but also let yourself go to assist the prince to ascend the throne, this Nima is even more powerful.

If the prince is young, he has to help the little emperor control the government, and then return the rights to others when the little emperor becomes an adult.

It is not unheard of in history, but most of them have ended in tragedy. Once people get the right, they instinctively don't want to give it up, and all promises, responsibilities, and credits are gone.

The final result was a very unpleasant quarrel with the little emperor, either the little emperor took the ministers down, or the ministers ousted the little emperor from power. The most obvious example in film and television dramas is the Ao Bai of the Qing Dynasty, whose status is basically similar to what Emperor Shenzong promised him.

Listen to it, as long as this right is obtained, it is very likely that the Northern Song Dynasty will have to manage it according to its own ideas in the next few decades. Even after the little emperor becomes an adult, he can't escape this huge inertia for a while, and the new emperor is also his own student, and there will be no recurrence in the future.

But Hong Tao doesn't think so, not to mention that he has only been together for two years, even if the father and son who have been together for decades face the throne, few can get along with each other, why do you think that the future new emperor can tolerate himself?

In fact, these are far away, and it is unknown whether they can obtain this right. Did Emperor Shenzong really want to pay such a big price? It has to be reluctant. But the emperor wanted to leave his son with a country without disasters and difficulties, so he had to endure the pain and come up with some dry goods.

It is true that he is the emperor's brother-in-law, but in the officialdom, it is useless to have a relationship with relatives, and if you want your subordinates to play hard, you must give corresponding rewards, and the most practical thing is the official position and title.

Ten years of hard work, once the title of the gold list. What is the title of the gold list? Not only to get a diploma, but to learn literature and martial arts to sell to the emperor's family, studying hard is to become an official, the bigger the better.

But officialdom is a system, and no one can help it by relying on the emperor's reward alone, and the bigger the official is, the more unlucky he is. Rather than letting the emperor grit his back molars and reluctantly exchange with himself, it is better not to ask for this hot potato.
