Extra: It's cold in high places

Twenty-eight years old, the sun is shining, and the breeze is sending. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the approach of the Spring Festival, the festive atmosphere of the whole country is getting stronger and stronger, the news continues to broadcast the celebrations in various places, the joy of the people of the whole country is strung together, the heart is like an arrow, thousands of miles to ride alone, one side is lost, and the news of helping each other from all sides continues to appear in the newspapers, when people everywhere greet the Spring Festival with the best attitude, the streets and alleys of the capital are also full of lights.

Not only are mascots and flower baskets placed in Bauhinia City Square, but red lanterns are also hung on the ten-mile long street early, and New Year's songs are constantly played in major squares, and occasionally distant explosions can be heard.

The Zhao Mansion was also full of people, and countless powerful people came to visit.

When Zhao Heng told Zhao Dingtian of his decision, Zhao Dingtian began to rest at home in semi-retreat on the grounds of physical health, he has always been a promise, Zhao Heng gave the answer, he gave absolute respect, but although he put down the power in his hands, everyone can still feel that his huge figure is like a dark cloud in the sky affecting Huaguo.

History is destined not to forget this old man who has done his best for Huaguo and does not love power, after Zhao Dingtian stepped down from a real post, basically Zhao Heng handled all the big and small government affairs of Huaguo, although Zhao Heng was only twenty-two years old, but the proud record of the tough team, coupled with the ruthlessness of killing people without mercy, so no one dared to compete with him.

Especially with the compromise of Tibet, Xinjiang and Miaojiang and other places, Zhao Heng seems more divine and majestic in the hearts of everyone, the living Buddha, Miao Wang and Ba are all stubborn forces left over from history, and they have changed their flags to accept the leadership of Huaguo on the bright side, but they have always supported the army and respected themselves in the past 100 years.

Now, the three places have expressed their submission to the capital, and they are willing to pay taxes to the capital every year, although the money and grain paid by the three places are very small, but everyone knows that the relationship between the two sides has changed essentially, and at this moment Zhongyang is considered to have completely ended the mess left by the four major families, and entered the era when there is only one voice in the capital, and Zhao Heng's status and prestige have also risen.

The millennium butcher began to be overshadowed by an aura of accolades.

Although the presidential election will not settle until April next year, and there are six or seven people on the list who have received enough votes, everyone knows that Zhao Heng, who decided to run, must be the next president of Huaguo.

Appearing on the presidential list with Zhao Heng is just to accompany the prince to study, the candidate can see this, and the rest of the people naturally know that Zhao Heng will have power all over the world, so they all come to visit through the traditional festival of the Spring Festival.

"Finally sent another batch away!"

Da Jinyi rubbed his aching head, and then spoke to a member of the Zhao clan: "Where did Zhao Heng go?" ”

The members of the Zhao clan hurriedly responded in a low voice: "Heng Shao is basking in the sun in the back garden, he said that you are responsible for everything!" ”

Hearing these words from the members of the Zhao family, Da Jinyi, who straightened his body slightly, shook his head: "This kid, every time he wants to socialize, he avoids it, leaving us to be false and wronged with others, you must know that all the powerful people are coming for him, and the person he wants to see is him!" He sighed with hatred: "I'm about to become president, and I haven't had a little bit of proportion." ”

As soon as the words fell, a Zhao family guard came over from the front, holding a few posts and speaking to Da Jinyi: "Shandong Zhu family, Hebei Wang family, Sichuan Bo family, the first heir is here to visit!" He also pointed to the back of a finger and added: "They also brought three carts of gifts, the cars can't enter the alley, and they are asking people to unload them and prepare to send them here." ”

"The Zhu family? The Wang family? Bo family? ”

Da Jinyi's head hurt again, frowned and swept over the post, wanting to say that he couldn't see it but was helplessly suppressed, these are the descendants of the founding fathers, no matter how beautiful and powerful the Zhao Mansion is, they also need to give them a little face, otherwise it is easy to fall into a hat that abandons meritorious deeds, and waved his hand at the moment and said: "People enter, but they don't enter!" ”

He sighed: "I'll go find Heng Shao!" He knew exactly who he was seeing.

When the members of the Zhao clan nodded and went out to arrange, Zhao Heng was lazily leaning on the side of the pool in the back garden, his right hand was gently placed on Master Ye's bulging abdomen, feeling the occasional beating of the little life, Master Ye's eyes were soft and looked at his beloved man, and his fingers pinched a grape and sent it into Zhao Heng's mouth: "There is still more than a month, and you will be able to see your son by then!" ”

Zhao Heng smiled: "You say, will he be more like me, or more like you?" ”

Master Ye smiled charmingly, looked down at his abdomen and said: "I must be like you, this is a boy, if I am a little more like me, wouldn't it be very demonic?" Thinking of my son talking like a girl, and wearing a pair of flower pants from time to time to put up an orchid finger, I have an urge to kill him, in my eyes, a man has to stand up to the sky! ”

The image of He Zihua's nephew came to Zhao Heng's mind: "Don't worry, I will never let him take the route of small fresh meat!" ”

Master Ye didn't dwell on this topic anymore, and glanced at the gate: "Listening to the movement outside, I'm afraid there are a lot of guests here today!" ”

In order to better recuperate her body, and in order to keep Zhao Dingtian from being too lonely, Master Ye moved into the Zhao mansion from Hengmen, at this time she dispersed her former shrewdness and fierceness, and showed more of a delicate: "You should go out to help greet guests, what is the point of staying by my daughter's affection?" And the guests come to visit just to meet you. ”

"It's not right for you not to show up!"

Zhao Heng seemed to have expected this topic, and responded softly with a smile: "There's nothing wrong with it, of course I know that they came to see me, and I also know that I can't make people feel like I'm putting on a show, and I can't understand the world, so as not to criticize or accuse them in private, but I'm really not in the mood to meet guests these days, tossing outside, I just want to stay quiet for a few days!" ”

This time when he went out to participate in the wedding of the third child, Zhao Heng felt more tired than fighting, coupled with the fatigue of pacifying the Quartet, returning to the capital, Zhao Heng subconsciously wanted to be quiet for a few days.

He grabbed Master Ye's hand and kissed it lightly: "Don't worry, the guests who are worthy of friendship and understanding should be able to understand me, and I don't take the guests who are small-bellied and calculating to me in my heart, let alone take them in my eyes, so I don't have to worry about not setting off any waves for face, besides, with big gold clothes to deal with, the guests will not be disappointed!" ”

Master Ye smiled helplessly, and then changed his words: "Qingguan is okay, right?" ”

Zhao Heng exhaled a long breath, his eyes narrowed slightly and responded: "It's okay, Baigou Yu rushed back from Miaojiang to detoxify him, and he can recover after three or five months of recuperation, but it's a pity that the wedding didn't go on, and he couldn't broadcast this marriage live to the world, but fortunately, He Keren is still good, not only did he not complain at all, but he also did his best to serve Song Qingguan!" ”

Zhao Heng got up and went to the stone table next to him, and poured a glass of water for Master Ye: "After this test of life and death, Song Qingguan also instantly figured out what he wanted, and dissipated the shadow left by Li Qingyou, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, I let the third child temporarily live in the He family to recuperate, which can not only let Mrs. He eliminate her suspicions, but also resolve the grievances between Xiaoxiao and the lovely people!" ”

Master Ye smiled: "You are really thoughtful!" ”

Zhao Heng handed the cup to Master Ye, with a touch of helplessness on his face: "My own brother, I always have to take good care of it, if it weren't for Song Qingguan's body in need of recuperation, I would be ready to do the marriage between Han Jian and the princess of Dubai, and now that this matter has appeared, it is estimated that I will not be able to propose marriage until the next year, but it's okay, it can give me a little respite!" ”

"Otherwise, I'll be half tired to death!"

Master Ye smiled with a cup: "There's no way, those who can work hard, not to mention that now you are the axis of the Chinese country, you have to run for president on the one hand, and you have to deal with state affairs on the other hand, and you have to toss the affairs of your brothers and sisters in your free time, if you are not busy, it is really unreasonable!" Then she changed her words again: "Han Jian has decided to marry the princess of Dubai?" ”

Zhao Heng nodded: "It's decided!" He told Han Jian's heart: "After Han Jian saw the love, hatred, and hatred between Baigou Yu and Lin Lingxin in Miao Jiang, he told me that only now do I know how happy and lucky it is for two people who love each other to be together, no matter whether he will be separated from the princess in the future, he must cherish the days when he can be together!" ”

"So that there will be no regrets!"

Master Ye's drinking movement froze slightly, and then the corners of his mouth hooked up a touch of arc: "Han Jian can say these words to you, it seems that he really has an epiphany of the true meaning of love!" Then he smiled bitterly: "It's just that it's embarrassing to see Le Jing in the future, this thing is really bloody, the two broke up, Le Jing found a prince in Dubai, and Han Jian was in love with the princess!" ”

"As long as the princess's sincerity remains the same, the two will definitely be able to grow old together."

Zhao Heng took over the topic lightly: "As for Le Jing, a friend, I can only wish her happiness!" He didn't tell Master Ye about the accident, the prince Habusi that Le Jing liked was Fabema's crazy admirer, and when he knew that Fabema was going to marry Han Jian, he was unable to reverse the situation, so he borrowed wine to kill his sorrows, and used Le Jing as a punching bag.

Le Jing has endured hardships these days, which can be described as a thought of heaven and a thought of hell.

Master Ye didn't hear what Zhao Heng said, and his thinking was more focused on Baigou Yu: "Ximen Qing, Song Qingguan, and Han Jian have found their homes one by one, and happiness and sweetness are permeating the entire Hengmen, but the happier the brothers, will there be more pressure on Baigou Yu?" I used to think that Baigou was the most chic, but now that I think about it, I feel that he is the most bitter person. ”

Zhao Heng's eyes dimmed by two points, and his face was a little more helpless: "Providence makes people, if I can, I really hope that Lin Lingxin and Baigou Yu never know each other!" ”

Although Baigou Yu and Lin Lingxin share weal and woe, and the two also experience life and death tests together, Baigou Yu also decided to let Lin Lingxin recuperate in Baihuamen and accept this relationship calmly, but Zhao Heng thought of the inhumane hard injury, and he felt endless regret for Baigou Left, he didn't know what the end of the two would be, but he knew how much it would be a hurdle.

Maybe Lin Lingxin can accept it now, but what about a year from now, three years from now, ten years from now?

"Miao Jiang should be fine, right?"

Seeing Zhao Heng's entangled love affair with Lin Lingxin, the corners of Master Ye's mouth twitched, and he hurriedly changed the topic, Zhao Heng knew the meaning of his beloved woman, and took over the topic with a sigh: "It's okay, King Miao, who longs for peace, cleaned up the portal by himself, stabilized the entire turbulent situation, guaranteed to live in peace with Hengmen, and is willing to pay taxes every year!" ”

"It's just that he hopes that the official will reduce the hostility towards the Miao people!"

Zhao Heng smiled faintly: "I asked Baigou Yu to sign an agreement with him on behalf of Hengmen, the garrison will be moved back ten kilometers, Baihuamen and Miao Wangzhai will coexist peacefully, jointly deal with the affairs of all ethnic groups in Miaojiang, and eliminate the Jiangyang thieves who harbor 100,000 mountains, and at the same time, the two sides will join hands to fund the construction of schools and hospitals to solve the cognitive and medical problems of Miao people and all ethnic groups!" ”

Master Ye's smile became brighter, and his voice came out softly: "This result is much better than I imagined, I thought you would uproot it, kill Miao Wangzhai with a river of blood, and then import population and culture to maintain the stability of the situation, although it is a method once and for all, but it always feels too cruel and bloody, and now the situation, I like it very much!" ”

Zhao Heng didn't hide his thoughts: "I really want to kill a river of blood, although King Miao saved Lin Lingxin and Song Qingguan, but that thread is a ghost made by the Miao people after all, I use the topic to play, no one can say that I am not, the most important thing is that most of the Miao people will be poisonous, let them continue in Miao Jiang, I always feel that sleep is not very steady!" ”

Even Zhou Wuzi was afraid that the hundred dogs would have poison left, how could Zhao Heng not worry about the Miao people playing tricks? If you don't do it first, you will probably die silently in the future: "It's just that Baigou told Miao Wang that he was old and longed for peace, and he also taught him everything he knew, and promised that Miao people would no longer practice poison, and he hoped to let Miao Wang spend his old age in peace!" ”

"I can ignore King Miao's assurance, but I can't help but give Baigou face."

Speaking of this, Zhao Heng also lowered his gaze on Master Ye's abdomen, and his eyes invisibly softened: "Besides, I'm about to be a father, and my hands can't be stained with too much blood, so within the controllable range, be tolerant if you can." He also stepped forward and brushed Master Ye's hair: "I don't want the little guy to point at my nose and shout at the thousand-year-old butcher!" ”

Master Ye kissed Zhao Heng on the lips: "No, he will love you as much as I do, whether you are a devil or an angel!" ”

Zhao Heng pinched the woman's delicate chin: "Thank you-"

When Zhao Heng was grateful to the woman, Da Jinyi hurriedly appeared, and when he saw the sweet little couple, he smiled bitterly: "You two Qingqing and I are happy, but I know that I am busy in front of me!" He tilted his head slightly towards Zhao Heng: "Zhao Heng, the Zhu family, the Wang family, and the nephews of the Bo family have come to visit, meritorious descendants, how can you give a little face." ”

"And they all bring the attitude of the elderly in the family and fully support your participation in the presidential race!"

Zhao Heng frowned slightly when he heard this, obviously a little resistant to entertaining guests: "Do you have to let me go?" You can't just do it! When Da Jinyi shook his head, Zhao Heng changed his head again: "Or take them to meet the old man, the old man can talk to them, I rarely interact with these people, and I don't know what to say when I meet." ”

"Naturally, they will pay a visit to the old man!"

Da Jinyi patiently explained to Zhao Heng: "It's just that the old man has retired and won't ask about the political affairs of Huaguo anymore, these old sons and daughters come over, do you think they will purely pay a visit to the old man who has no power in his hands?" They also want to meet with you, spy on your attitudes and movements, and get some promises from you in the future, so that they don't get angry. ”

Master Ye shook Zhao Heng's hand: "Heng Shao, go see the guest!" ”

When a trace of helplessness crossed Zhao Heng's face, Da Jinyi glanced at Master Ye and spoke: "Nan Nian Buddha will also come over in the afternoon, he wants to disperse the old team of the southern department, provide more positions for talents from all sides, break the confinement of the faction like Xi Shao, and integrate into the big family of Huaguo, meet in the afternoon, you need to be appeased and encircled!" ”

"Although it is his own will to disperse power, it is easy for people to misunderstand if you don't do a good job!"

In the case of Zhao Heng's continuous expansion of power and popularity, the southern system gradually became in an embarrassing position, although Zhao Heng never thought of weakening the power of Nan Nian Buddha, and still called Nan Nian Buddha a brother and sister in public, but all parties did not take the southern system seriously since the first battle in Tibetan City, let alone regarded Nan Nian Buddha as a police minister on an equal footing with Zhao Heng.

Whether it is a major department or a police officer, many incidents directly skip the minister and committee member of Nan Nianfo, and the top leaders at all levels take Zhao Heng's opinions as the policy of doing things, and after a long time, Nan Nianfo is almost equal to a puppet, Nan Nianfo is also a smart person, knowing that it is easy for the south to become an outlier if the head of the south system goes on like this, so he took the initiative to disband the south team.

He no longer pinched the members of the southern system into a rope to advance and retreat together, on the contrary, he threw out a lot of important positions to the capable children of the Han family, self-diluted the power and concentration of the southern system, so that the word southern system gradually became a historical term, and made every effort to eliminate the brand of the four major families, he knew that Zhao Heng would not deal with him, but the general environment no longer allowed the southern system to fight against him.

You must know that even Ximen Qing has opened the door of West China, allowing others to enter investment and politics, and the high-level leaders of the West China garrison are no longer all surnamed Xi, and even the most self-contained West China has begun to hand over power.

Da Jinyi also added: "He also hopes that you will inspect the police department after the year!" ”

Hearing Da Jinyi's words, Zhao Heng sighed, got up and walked to the front yard.

The heights were unbearable, and he began to feel a little lonely.
