"Wu En, do you think I'm boring as an emperor?" Just when Wu En was thinking in his heart, His Majesty had not eaten for a day, and what method should he use to invite the emperor to have some food, Song Zhenzong's voice suddenly sounded. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Ahem, ahem, Your Majesty, where did you come from? In the eyes of the ministers, you are a rare wise master, you have been on the throne for more than 20 years, the country and the people are safe, the people are rich, and the government is clear......" Wu En, who was distracted, was frightened by his words, and with a pop, he knelt on the ground, knelt on the ground, and hurriedly spoke.

"Get up, Wun, you've been following me for so many years, don't you know me yet? I'm a weak person by nature, and I have a good face, and I can't really talk about being wise, but as a king who guards the city, I ask myself if I'm qualified, but why, I, a qualified king who guards the city, and have been an emperor for more than 20 years, end up in such a sad situation? Song Zhenzong glanced at Wu En, who was kneeling on the ground, shook his head slightly, and opened his mouth a little abruptly, when he said the last sentence, his eyebrows were unconsciously locked, and there was both confusion and indescribable indignation in the meaning.

Wu En didn't dare to answer this question, after he got up, he quietly stood beside Zhenzong, hung his head, and didn't say a word, Song Zhenzong was immersed in his emotions, and he didn't care if Wu En didn't reply, after a while, he suddenly laughed: "Also, even I can't do anything about this kind of question, how can you answer it, Wu En, you go and help me invite someone to come over, he must be able to solve my doubts." ”

Wu En went out, about half an hour later, he came back again, and when he came back, he also took Jiang Ge Lao, Jiang Ge Lao stopped after following him to the outside of the imperial study, he didn't go in as soon as possible, but turned his head to look at Wu En and asked: "Manager Wu, you said that Your Majesty has not eaten since yesterday?" ”

"Not bad." Wu En nodded.

"Let's wait to go in, you go and bring a pot of Hangju rock sugar tea, add a plate of honey, in addition, and bring two plates of digestible snacks, take them in together, let Your Majesty use a little cushion to cushion your stomach first, Your Majesty is not young, and his body has always been not very good, but he can't spoil his body like this." Jiang Ge old road.

Wu En nodded thoughtfully, and left quickly, not long after, he came over with a pot of tea and four small plates, one of which was filled with honey, and the other three saucers were snacks, Jiang Ge Lao reached out and knocked on the door, and got the permission of the people inside, so that the guards by the door helped push the door open, let Wu En take the head, he followed Wu En, and walked into the imperial study together.

Song Zhenzong was not surprised to see Wu En come in with tea and snacks, and after he put the tray on the table, he turned his head and said to him: "Wu En, you go outside, I haven't tasted tea with Ge Lao for a long time, and now I suddenly want to drink tea and talk with him." Wu quietly retreated.

When there were only the two of them in the room, Song Zhenzong stood up from the imperial case, walked back and forth a few times, moved his body slightly, and then came to the table where some tea and tea were put to sit, and turned his head to Jiang Ge Lao, who was standing quietly, and said: "Ge Lao, come and sit, speaking of which, we monarchs and ministers have been sitting together for a long time, and we haven't sat together to chat well, it's rare to have such an opportunity today, how about we have a good chat?" ”

"Obey." Jiang Ge Lao smiled slightly, walked over to the emperor and sat down.

"Hangju rock sugar tea, add some wolfberries, and add some honey, it tastes really good, this red date and mud cake is also delicious, or Ge Lao knows me best." After Song Zhenzong sat down, he poured himself a cup of tea, tested the temperature, added a spoonful of honey to it, drank two sips, and ate another piece of dim sum, then looked up at Jiang Ge Lao and said.

"These are all snacks that Wu En has prepared for His Majesty." Jiang Ge old road.

"You don't have to be modest, if it weren't for you, without my permission, no matter how worried Wu En was in his heart, he wouldn't dare to come in with food, Elder Ge, tell me, how have I treated you all these years?" The emperor drank a few more sips of tea and ate a few pieces of dim sum before he spoke.

"Your Majesty has always been kind and trusting to the minister for so many years, and the minister is very grateful." Jiang Ge old road.

"Hehe, grace can't be talked about, trust is there, this is true, but it's not that I want to, but I have to do it, above the court, even if you rarely speak, no one dares to ignore you half a point, and once you open your mouth, no matter which department, it will be implemented immediately, and you will never dare to delay for a moment, in a sense, your words and warrants are sometimes more effective than my holy decree as the emperor, you say, in the face of such a pavilion elder you, do I dare not trust Youjia?" The emperor couldn't help but pause when he heard the sound of serving tea, raised his eyes to stare at Jiang Ge Lao, and said with a smile.

"Minister, in front of Your Majesty, ask yourself how rarely there is trespassing." In the face of such a question, Jiang Ge Lao did not evade, he met the emperor's gaze with a calm face.

"Yes, although you are powerful, whether it is the prestige of the court or the people, it is far above my emperor, but you have never done anything autocratic, and you are also very protective of my face as an emperor, in a sense, you are indeed a virtuous minister, but, since the king of Shouchun County came back, you have slowly changed, last year's new champion Xiao Zixiu, you can be said to have openly slapped me in the face."

"I have always wondered, why did you kiss Zhao Zhen and stay away from Zhao You? In terms of closeness, You'er is your nephew, if he takes the throne, your Jiang family's power will be a little more powerful than now, but you haven't liked him since you were a child, and now ...... I won't talk about it now, Elder Ge, can you tell me why? The emperor nodded, obviously agreeing with Jiang Ge Lao's self-defense, and then changed the conversation and asked a question that he couldn't figure out.

"It's very simple, because Zhao You is not a qualified prince." Elder Jiang Ge replied.

Why? This kid has indeed become more and more unseemly in recent years, but before, he was still a good child, with your ability, if you are willing to teach him well, he has no chance to become a generation of famous monarchs in order to pay for it, or is it that your resentment towards the Jiang family has not been eliminated over the years? Song Zhenzong said that he could not agree with Jiang Ge Lao's answer.

"The minister doesn't like him, and the grievances between the minister and the Jiang family have nothing to do with it, but the minister found that he has lacked basic responsibilities since he was a child, a monarch, nothing else for the time being, one thing must not be missing, that is, the basic bottom line and responsibility of being a man, he was very young, as long as he encountered something unfavorable to himself, he would subconsciously whitewash the peace and find a scapegoat for himself, such a person is difficult to teach well, once he is a king, a little careless, it will inevitably be a disaster for the whole country." Jiang Ge said lightly.

Song Zhenzong's breath stagnated slightly when he heard this, he didn't dare to face his own mistakes, he liked to find scapegoats, and he didn't do less, Zhao You's problem can be said to be inherited from him, but Zhao You's problem is much more serious than him......

Jiang Ge Lao sat and talked with the emperor in the imperial study for most of the hour, after most of the hour, he left, the fifth day after he left, the first year of Qianxing (AD 1022), the sixth day of the first month of March, Song Zhenzong issued an edict, abolished the prince Zhao You as a concubine, moved to Qiandi, the queen has no virtue, no godson, degraded to a nobleman, into the cold palace......

On March 28, another edict was issued to establish the crown prince: Zhao Zhen, the third son of the emperor, is a young man, talented and beautiful, and can inherit the temple and be established as the prince......
