Zhang Ruzhou hurriedly shook his head and said: "Lord Cai, this is too modest, you are already a veteran of the imperial court, how many political affairs have you experienced?" Where can we, the descendants, compare with you? ”

Cai Jing waved his hand and said, "I've said this." Isn't Lord Zhao also a veteran? What did he say? ”

Zhao Tingzhi hurriedly waved his hand, then shook his head and said: "The old man is just doing his duty, and he has no merit, let alone a patriarch." I can't afford to be a patriarch. ”

Zhang Ruzhou turned to look at Lord Zhao again, shook his head with him and said, "Lord Zhao is too humble in what he said, how can he not be a patriarch?" We'll learn from you. ”

Cai Nu and Lord Zhao nodded and said, "That's right, Lord Zhao has done a lot of great things in the imperial court, and he is very good for the emperor's assistant." ”

Zhao Tingzhi shook his head and said: "Don't dare to say this, you say that the old man assists the emperor, that is a compliment to the old man." As for how the old man is doing, the emperor naturally knows in his heart. The saint clearly observed that the old man was just doing his duty. ”

Lang Sheng smiled, Zhao Tingzhi then turned to look at Miss Cai and Brother Lu, and said with a smile with the two of them: "But when it comes to the pillars of the imperial court, I'm afraid we old people can't do it." What happens in the future depends on who comes after you. Newcomers emerge in an endless stream. ”

Cai Jing pointed at Lord Zhao and nodded: "Yes, yes, there are new people in the next generation." We're all old people, and we don't care who we do. But as a newcomer, you still have to assist the emperor. The emperor is young and vigorous, and he is a vigorous young man. He's in high spirits and needs your help. ”

Zhao Tingzhi: "Yes." Mingcheng, how can you help? ”

Zhao Mingcheng didn't answer, just tilted his head. Leaning on the lady's shoulder, she seemed to be groggy and was about to sleep. ”

Li Qingzhao said embarrassedly: "Xianggong is not strong enough to drink, I think I am too happy, so I drank a little too much." ”

Cai Jing shook his head and said, "That's okay, Miss Li, you can talk about it." Should we do it? ”

Li Qingzhao was surprised: "What? Do you want to say it clearly? ”

Cai Jing nodded and said, "Exactly, Miss Li's talent is well-known in the capital, so we would like to ask your opinion." See what answer you can give. ”

Li Qingzhao secretly pondered in his heart: "Qingzhao knows that Lord Cai is trying to probe my bottom or test me with family and country affairs." Qingzhao needs to pay more attention when answering. ”

When Zhao Tingzhi heard this, he thought to himself: "Qingzhao is a girl." How should I answer? But since Lord Cai asked. The old man is not easy to say. ”

When Zhao Tingzhi was thinking about it, he suddenly heard Qingzhao say: "With what Qingzhao can see, there are still three conditions to assist the emperor." ”

When Cai Jing heard this, he was really surprised, he didn't expect a female streamer to be able to say such a thing, and immediately said, "Oh? What are the three conditions? The old man asked. ”

The implication is more sarcastic. Cai Jing stared at Li Qingzhao.

Li Qingzhao lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head. Raising his eyes again, he smiled with Master Cai: "Well, you have to have real talent to learn." If there are no poems and books in his belly, then how can he help the emperor when he enters the imperial court? And how do you come up with some good advice? Besides, if the person is still an uneducated person, it is not good, and if he says the wrong thing, it will be very bad. Therefore, the imperial examination is like this, and the selection of talents and abilities is this reason. ”

When Zhao Tingzhi heard this, he was happy in his heart, and secretly thought: "Qingzhao's analysis is very reasonable. ”

When Cai Jing heard this, he nodded and said, "Okay, good, this makes sense, then, what about the second point?" ”

Li Qingzhao was not in a hurry, and then said: "This second point, that is, an official not only needs to be really talented, but also needs to have rich experience in the court. When you encounter things, you need to deal with them well, you can't get angry in your head, and you think that one is one out, so that it won't be messed up? If the emperor trusts a person, but this person is stubborn, then it is very likely that he will mess things up at a critical moment. It's too bad to lose the people of the court and delay things at the same time. ”

When Cai Jing heard this, he nodded even more and said, "What Miss Li said makes sense, then, what about this third?" ”

Zhao Tingzhi and Zhao's mother looked at each other, they both smiled slightly, and thought in their hearts: "I really didn't expect Qingzhao to say this." ”

When Li Qingzhao heard Lord Cai's words, he didn't panic, and said bluntly: "This third, Qingzhao is foolish, that is, he dares to point out the emperor's mistakes." During the Tang Dynasty, Lord Wei Zheng dared to speak, so Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty had the rule of Zhenguan. Our Great Song Dynasty needs such talents even more, dare to point out mistakes to the emperor, only in this way will we strengthen the country and strengthen the army, and the barbarians in the north and west will not dare to commit. ”

Cai Nu listened on the sidelines, sweating for her sister-in-law, and secretly wondered in her heart: "Why did Daddy give my sister-in-law such a big problem?" ”

When I was thinking about saying a few good words for my sister-in-law, I heard that what my sister-in-law said was the truth, and it really made sense. ”

Cai Jing secretly thought in his heart: "I really didn't see that Miss Li was weak on the outside, but she was still such a good person. ”

I also glanced at Miss Li again in my heart, and Cai Jing smiled and said, "Miss Li is right. Another day, the old man will definitely pass on your words to the emperor. Presumably the emperor heard about it, and he must praise you. ”

Zhao Tingzhi and Zhao's mother looked at each other, and they were all happy in their hearts, and they both knew in their hearts that Lord Cai was already dissatisfied with the Li family, and asking such a question today must be to embarrass Qingzhao. But I didn't expect Qingzhao to answer so simply, the head is the way, which is very reasonable. So they are all happy. Zhao Tingzhi also re-regarded his daughter-in-law, he really didn't expect his daughter-in-law to be like this.

Cai Nu came to her father and smiled with her father: "Daddy, what do you think of what your sister-in-law said?" ”

Cai Jing nodded and said: "Okay, that's really good, the old man really didn't expect that a woman would have such an opinion, it's really rare." No wonder the people in the capital call you a talented girl. It's not just that you're beautiful on the outside, you have poetry and books on the inside, but you also have deep insights. Come. The old man toasts you. ”

Li Qingzhao calmly raised his glass and said to Lord Cai: "Cheers." ”

The two of them drank it all, Cai Jing wiped his mouth, and then smiled: "Okay, all the people sitting here now are the future pillars of the dynasty." Miss Li is talented, and Zhao Gongzi is second to none in the world of calligraphy and painting. Zhang Gongzi will come to work. The meaning of Yuantong is really higher than ordinary people. As for Yun'er, you better go to the frontier. ”

Cai Nu pouted at her father. He said coquettishly with his father: "What did Daddy say this, Yun'er is also a hot-blooded young woman, why do you still want to go to the frontier?" ”

Cai Jing said: "You are a woman, and no one else is Miss Li." How can you adapt to the imperial court? You've learned a lot of martial arts. Just go to the Frontier Guards. Isn't that a good thing? ”

Turning his head to look at Yun'er, Cai Jing suddenly remembered his son-in-law again, and said to his son-in-law: "Oh, by the way, Defu is also a strong general." I don't know what will happen to Defu. ”

Cai Nu said coquettishly: "Xianggong is naturally going to be with Yun'er." Xianggong, don't you say? ”

Lu Defu nodded and said, "Yes...... Yes. Drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people came back to fight in ancient times? ”

Cai Jing smiled: "You can't not come back." If you can't come back, who will Yun'er take care of? Ha ha. The son-in-law is also bold, and this is only a little older. I was actually drunk. ”

Cai Nu and her father said coquettishly: "Daddy, why are you just teasing Xianggong?" Xianggong he was not drunk. ”

Cai Jing said: "Why am I teasing him? Dev is proud and vows to fight on the battlefield, the old man is not wrong, right? ”

Cai Nu nodded and said, "Naturally, there is nothing wrong. But not now. Now that the frontier is peaceful, how can there be war? You let Xianggong go to the frontier, I can't bear it! ”

Cai Jing pointed at his daughter and smiled, and glanced at Zhang Gongzi.

Zhang Ruzhou immediately smiled: "Miss Cai is also a person who loves her husband, and she just got married today, so she feels sorry for her husband." In this way, I think the two of them will be happy. ”

Cai Jing shook his head and said, "Huh? How do you talk about happy things? ”

Pointing to his daughter, Cai Jing and his daughter smiled: "Protect the short, protect the short." This hasn't entered the cave room yet, don't you care about your father? How can you talk to your father-in-law? ”

Cai Nu shook her head and said: "Yun'er is not talking to Xianggong, in fact, this is the case, Yun'er is just thinking about living a stable life with Xianggong in the capital first." If it was really the barbarians from the north who came to attack, Yun'er would definitely be obligated to go to the battlefield with Xianggong. ”

Cai Jing slapped the table and nodded: "Okay, since both of you have such plans, that's good." The old man looks at the two of you, you are also talented. It's better to say a few kind words to the two of you in front of the emperor, maybe the emperor will be happy one day, and if he wants to hold an official position with the two of you, or the title of general, the two of you can display your ambitions. What do you think? ”

When Cai Nu heard this, she thought to herself: "Daddy, isn't this going to draw Yun'er and Xianggong to his side?" Yun'er knows what Daddy means, and I am willing to do it too. But I just don't know what Xianggong thinks. ”

Zhang Ruzhou hurriedly said: "Lord Cai is so gracious, even if ordinary people want to come!" Brother Lu, you quickly agree. ”

Lu Defu yawned, then nodded, "Yes." ”

Cai Jing was a little unhappy in his heart, and secretly thought: "This surname Lu is really not good, why did he yawn?" But where did he put the old man? ”

Lu Defu nodded and said, "Yes, father-in-law's kindness, Defu understands in his heart." Defu should have followed his father-in-law and served the court together. ”

When Cai Jing heard this, he felt a little more comfortable, nodded, and thought to himself, "That's right." ”

Lu Defu then said: "But as my sister-in-law said, not all people are right, and Defu also feels that as long as there is a mistake, it needs to be pointed out." It doesn't matter who it is. The Son of Heaven made a mistake, and it should be pointed out. ”

Cai Jing said helplessly: "The Son of Heaven makes a mistake, and you don't need to correct it, naturally someone will correct it." ”

Lu Defu shook his head and said: "No, Defu knows that his ability is not enough and his qualifications are shallow, but for the sake of the court, the people have the right to speak." As long as it's for the court, what can it be? There is a Wei Zheng in Datang, and we also need a person here. Presumably, my father-in-law has experienced a lot, and he is such a person. ”

His words made Cai Jing stunned, and Cai Jing had no choice but to nod and say, "Yes, the old man is naturally such a person." ”

Cai Nu was busy talking to Xianggong on the side: "Xianggong, don't say it again." ”

Cai Jing said to his daughter: "No, the old man thinks that what the child said is reasonable, let him continue." ”

Lu Defu nodded and said, "Yes." The father-in-law looked up to Defu, and Defu went on to say, in Edfu's humble opinion, no matter who it is, as long as it is a person in the court, it should be dedicated to the emperor, to the court, and to the world. Therefore, no matter who you learn from, or create original theories, you have your own opinions. As long as it is useful to the emperor, the court, and the world, it is good. ”

When Cai Jing heard this, he only felt awkward, and thought to himself: "When the surname Lu said this, it seems to be sarcastic that the old man is not dedicated to the court. ”

Lu Defu smiled and said: "Everyone in the court can give advice to the emperor and display their ambitions. ”

Cai Jing thought to himself: "After going around for a long time, it turns out that you are unwilling to protect me and follow me." Speaking of such decency, don't you mean that you are one of those courts? Maybe you'll have to stand on the side of Yuanyouren! Alas, Yun'er, how did you get a spy back? ”

Cai Nu also felt awkward when she heard this, and hurriedly said to Xianggong: "Okay, Xianggong, don't say it again." ”

Reaching out to touch Xianggong, Cai Nu turned her head and said to her father: "Daddy, we are all a little drunk today, so we will go back first." ”

Zhang Ruzhou listened on the sidelines, and lamented in his heart: "This Lu Defu really doesn't know how to lift. Lord Cai has wooed him like this, if it were me, I would have agreed a long time ago. What kind of people in the court make you look like you're really an official. ”

Zhao Tingzhi and Zhao's mother looked at each other, they both felt embarrassed, and they didn't know how to say it, Lu Gongzi said something inappropriate.

Cai Jing thought about it for a while, then laughed on his back, and said with a smile with Yun'er: "Okay, okay, what this kid Dev said makes sense." The old man values him very much. Well, since both of you husband and wife have this ambition, the old man will definitely say a few kind words for you in front of the emperor. ”

Cai Nu smiled embarrassedly, hurriedly picked up Xiang Gong, and said to Xiang Gong: "Let's go, it's getting late, let's go back." ”

Lu Defu didn't speak, so he let Yun'er help him back.

Cai Jing smiled with everyone: "Defu is right, with the world in mind, it is natural to be fair and just." Serve the court and assist the king. Treat the people well! Dev was right. If the emperor heard what Defu said, he would definitely be very happy. Come on, come on, let's have another drink. ”

Cai Jing wants to drink, who dares not to drink? Therefore they all drank the wine.

After Cai Jing finished drinking, he immediately said: "It's really late today, everyone, ......."

Zhao Tingzhi hurriedly said: "Have fun today, the old man thanks Master Cai." ”

Mother Zhao hurriedly followed: "We'll go back." ”

Cai Jing hurriedly said: "Why do you want to leave?" Or two more drinks. ”

Mother Zhao hurriedly said: "Don't drink it, I'm already having fun today." It's time for us to go back, too. ”

Zhang Ruzhou also hurriedly said: "Yes, we should go back." (To be continued.) )
