"Xu'er, you have to remember, after taking power, don't rush to belittle Sima Guang, Su Shi, Su Zhe and other old parties, this will shake the foundation of the imperial court, you can secretly convene the new party to discuss, instill in them the new law in the strategy of governing the country, and then slowly make changes from the subtleties, the key to changing the law is to grasp the rhythm, don't be in a hurry. ”

"You have enough time to do this, so you don't have to rush at all, you just need to stick to one principle, which is 'subtle', and let the change be completed unconsciously, then it will be a real success. ”

"What I just said was the government decree, now let's talk about the army, the army does not need to be as subtle as the government decree, you can carry out drastic reforms, here I recommend you a person, you remember it carefully. ”

"There is a head named Zhang Han in the forbidden army, he has a son-in-law named Lin Chong, who is also the head of the forbidden army, this person is in his twenties, he is straightforward by nature, loves to make good friends, fights righteousness and squanders money, is strong in martial arts, is accustomed to making eight snake spears, is born with a leopard head and eyes, swallow jaw and tiger whiskers, eight feet long, known as 'leopard head', also called 'little Zhang Fei', has the courage of ten thousand people. ”

"And usually people with such a character, most of them are loyal martyrs, you can personally contact one or two, no accident, this person should be a general of my Great Song Dynasty, and there are some other talents, I will give you a list at that time, you can follow the list to recruit talents, talent is the foundation of a strong country, you have to spend more time." ”

Zhao Xu listened to Xiao Peng's words, digested it a little, remembered it carefully, and then bowed to Xiao Peng with his fists and said, "Thank you for your advice, the disciple has written it down." ”

"Well, good, there's one more thing ......"

Xiao Peng was about to say something more, suddenly his expression moved, looking out of the door, Zhao Xu was about to ask, Xiao Peng pressed his hand to him, signaling him not to speak, a moment later, the knock on the door sounded, Xiao Peng's consciousness was swept away, and then he showed a satisfied smile, "Go open the door! It seems that Cao Lao has done a good job in the past two years!"

"Oh?" Zhao Xu opened the door with great interest, and saw that there was a white-faced young man dressed in a strong costume outside the door, and he didn't speak, but just turned sideways to let him into the room.

The young man waited until Zhao Xu closed the door, then lifted his shirt, knelt down on one knee, and said in a low voice: "Long live the Dragon Guardian Guard, Long live my emperor, and meet the national teacher." "The voice is high-pitched, and it is obvious that the waiter is first-class.

"Calm down!" Zhao Xu stretched out his hand to help him, and then asked, "How did you recognize me and the national teacher?"

"Your Majesty, Emperor. Wei 13 stood up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, all the dragon guards have a portrait of the emperor and the national teacher and the wife of the national teacher, and soon after the emperor and the national teacher entered the city, they were recognized by the little ones, and the little ones have sent people into the palace to report to the ancestors, and I believe that the ancestors will come to see them soon." ”

Xiao Peng smiled and said, "He's already here, hehe, Cao Lao, it seems that in the past two years, your martial arts have made great progress! ”

As soon as Xiao Peng's voice fell, he saw that the latch on the window automatically slid to the side, the window opened silently, the black shadow flashed, and Cao Mowen, whose complexion was more ruddy and smooth than two years ago, appeared in the room, and what surprised Zhao Xu the most was that the white hair on his head had all turned black.

"See the emperor and meet the national teacher. Cao Mowen bowed to Zhao Xu and Xiao Peng, this was granted by Zhao Xu, and when he saw him, he only had to bow his hand, and he didn't need to kneel.

"Haha, Old Cao, your skills have really increased, and you are starting to rejuvenate. Xiao Peng joked with a smile.

Cao Mowen bowed to Xiao Peng with a grateful face and said: "This has to be thanks to the great grace of the national teacher, if there is no national teacher, how can Cao Mowen have today." ”

"Eh, why haven't you seen each other for two years, Cao Lao has become so polite? You came just in time, I have something to do with you. ”

Xiao Peng stood up, paced two steps, and with a wave of his hand, the entire room was cut off by mana, and he couldn't hear the slightest sound, so he said: "There is a privy council in the Privy Council, named Gao Yu, you send someone to make him disappear as soon as possible, there is also a person named Lu Qian in the forbidden army, and he will handle it the same, but be careful, do it cleanly, and let them die unconsciously." ”

Cao Mo asked Wenyan and nodded, not asking the reason at all, and he didn't even need to ask Zhao Xu's opinion, he directly turned his head to Wei Thirteen and said, "You heard everything?"

"Yes, little one understands. Wei 13 nodded, hugged his fists and shook everyone in the room deeply, then turned around and opened the door and went out.

"Hehe, Cao Lao is lucky, come, sit down and say, how is the development of the Dragon Guard?" Xiao Peng beckoned Cao Mowen to sit down with Zhao Xu, and then asked.

"Yes, in the past two years, the old slave has secretly cultivated a total of 238 dragon guards, of which more than 160 are internal servants, in addition, the old slave found that the Sunflower Treasure Book is not only suitable for the cultivation of the inner servants, but also the women who have practiced after a slight modification, and the number of suitable internal servants is not enough, so the old slave secretly selected some palace maids to join the dragon guard, which has the current scale. ”

"Today's Funing Palace, the inner and outer palace maids have all been replaced with dragon guards, very clean, among the forbidden army and the inner guards, there are also some under the planning of the old slave and Li Yan, who fell to the emperor's side, and the old slave on the side of the Chongqing Palace also installed a few dragon guards, although the queen mother faintly knew these things, she didn't say anything. ”

Xiao Peng and Zhao Xu nodded with satisfaction, Xiao Peng smiled at Zhao Xu: "Xu'er, Cao Lao has done what he promised us, you should also say something!"

Zhao Xu smiled and nodded, and said, "This is natural, Ancestor, you say it, do you want to be a civil official or a military general." ”

Cao Mowen was shocked when he heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, and finally he sighed lightly and said: "Forget it! The old slave who has no official and military generals is not that material, let me be an official for fear of making a mess of things, forget it! The old slave can still be a guard by the emperor's side, and after so many years, I have gotten used to it." ”

"This ......" Zhao Xu looked at Xiao Peng with some embarrassment.

Xiao Peng thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and said: "What else, Xu'er, you built a mountain villa for Cao Lao in the capital, and named it 'Dragon Guardian Villa', which is the headquarters of the Dragon Guardian Guard, and Cao Lao is the first owner of the Dragon Guardian Village, and the rank is equal to that of the same product, and he only obeys the emperor's orders, and no one has the right to transfer. ”

"In the future, Cao Lao will sit in the Dragon Guardian Villa, and at the same time teach apprentices to pass on the arts, cultivate more talents for the Dragon Guard, and then find a family surnamed Cao, and pass on a child to Cao Lao, how about passing on the incense for Cao Lao?"

Zhao Xu's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he said happily: "Master's proposal is very good, the disciple agrees, what does the ancestor think?"

Cao Mowen was so excited that he couldn't speak at this time, he just jumped up, and knelt down with a bend of his knees, "The emperor and the national teacher are very kind, and the old slave has nothing to repay, I am willing to break my bones for the emperor and the national teacher, and I will never give up." ”

"Cao Lao doesn't have to be like this, you deserve it. ”

Xiao Peng and Zhao Xu glanced at each other, and a smile flashed in their eyes at the same time.

......

The next day, Xiao Peng and his entourage entered the palace under the leadership of Cao Mowen, Zhao Xu did a little disguise, so as not to be recognized, to the Funing Palace, directly into the back cabinet, when Li Yan saw Zhao Xu, the main master, come back, immediately took off the dragon robe, tore off the human skin mask, changed back to the costume of the dragon guard, and then handed over some intelligence information to Zhao Xu.

"Little Li Yan, long live my emperor, meet the national teacher. ”

"You're doing a good job, and you're going to wait a little longer, and when I take power, I'll have a reward. ”

Handle all the affairs, wave off irrelevant people, etc., the group sat down in the main and secondary places, naturally Xiao Peng and A Zhu sat in the main seat, Ah Zi shamelessly sat next to A Zhu, Zhao Xu pulled Wang Yuyan to sit in the second seat, Meilan Zhuju and the four girls stood behind Zhao Xu, and at this time there were no outsiders, so the chatter became lively.

"Master, your palace is so big! it's much bigger than the Nasixia Palace. ”

"Master, where do you eat on weekdays!"

"The host ......"

Zhao Xu changed back into the emperor's attire, and at this time he suddenly found that he was a little unaccustomed to it, listening to Mei Lan Zhuju's twittering questions, he smiled and answered them one by one, without the slightest impatience.

Wang Yuyan looked at Zhao Xu, who was wearing back into the dragon robe, and had mixed feelings in her heart, she loved her cousin before, but he only dreamed of the emperor, but he never took himself to heart, but this real emperor didn't seem to take the throne so seriously, but cared more about the people around him.

"Newspaper"

After chatting for a while, suddenly an attendant came outside the curtain, "Your Majesty, the deacon and father-in-law of the Chongqing Palace came to report that the Empress Dowager suddenly fell ill, please make a decision." ”

"Oh?" Zhao Xu's heart moved, and he looked at Xiao Peng.

Xiao Peng pinched his fingers and nodded to Zhao Xu with a smile.

Zhao Xu's spirits were greatly lifted, and he said to the inner attendant: "Start driving Chongqing Palace, don't prepare to drive Luan, I will walk over by myself." ”

"Only, the emperor drove the Chongqing Palace...... the waiter responded, sang a song, and went out to arrange for the attendants.

Zhao Xu stood up in high spirits and smiled at Xiao Peng: "Master, the disciple has been waiting for nine years, and he has finally waited for this day, hahahaha......"

"Yes, nine years, it's your turn to show off your skills! Let's go! Go to Chongqing Hall and see off the old lady on her last journey. Xiao Peng smiled slightly, got up and said.

"Okay, let's go. ”

Chongqing Palace, the imperial doctors walked out one by one with frowns, and just happened to meet Zhao Xu who arrived, but they suddenly found that the emperor seemed to be a different person, looking domineering and awe-inspiring, but without the feminine spirit of the past, what was going on, but they naturally didn't dare to ask more, just bowed and worshipped, "See the emperor." ”

"Pingshen, how is the Empress Dowager?" Zhao Xu asked lightly.

"This ......" The imperial doctors glanced at each other, and the leader said: "Don't dare to deceive the emperor, the empress dowager's illness is the same as two years ago, it is due to mental exhaustion, and this time, it is really exhausted, and it is already weak." ”

Zhao Xu nodded, and walked towards the back pavilion with an expressionless face, and Xiao Peng and the others followed up.
