Chapter 46 Eating outside the palace
Out of the first month, into February, Kaifeng City is said to be more and more lively, but the palace is still the same, the busiest person is the emperor Guo Rong, Guo Zongxun now wants to see Guo Rong is difficult.
What should I do, my father will go on the expedition in another month, and he will come back after this trip...... It's Guo Rong's death.
On his deathbed, Zhao Kuangyin as the former secretary of the palace checked and balanced Li Chongjin, Zhang Yongde and other old Taizu generals, but unfortunately, Fu Jinhuan is not Xiaozhuang, Guo Zongxun is not Kangxi, and Zhao Kuangyin is not Dolgon.
He has never found a way to check Guo Rong's hidden disease, and now it is difficult for him to ask to see Guo Rong, Guo Zongxun has never let Wei Zhongxian inquire about the affairs of his father's side, which is his baseline as a son, but at the same time, there are some constraints and restrictions.
Why don't you let Wei Zhongxian send someone to inquire about the news of his father at all times? Guo Zongxun thought about it, but decided to give up, Guo Rong is not a faint king, let alone a confused king, many things are in his eyes, heart, and calculations.
Sometimes you have to believe in fate, even if Guo Zongxun can bring a well-equipped modern medical team, it may not be able to save Guo Rong's life, such as cancer, if Guo Rong really has cancer......
Guo Zongxun decided that Guo Wanche's research should continue, even if it was not for Guo Rong, but for the sake of tens of millions of Li people in the Zhou State.
The people from the Ministry of Industry have already gone to Sanqingguan to build the beast park, although Guo Rong has assigned it, but now, the current major event of the Zhou State is to prepare to conquer the Liao State and recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun.
Therefore, the zoo is only in the planning and cannot start construction immediately.
The ceremony was very grand, Fu Jinhuan became the queen of Zhou as she wished, which was a few months earlier than in history, in Guo Zongxun's view, this is equivalent to giving Fu Jinhuan the opportunity to control and stabilize the harem, I hope she will not panic and have no opinions in the future.
However, what worries Guo Zongxun is that the queen mother Fu Jinhuan always treats him as a child, very doting, and even Guo Rong punishes Guo Zongxun to copy the "Tao Te Ching" every day, and she has to run to beg Guo Rong if he can stop Guo Zongxun from copying it.
This is what Guo Rong wants to see, but it is not what Guo Zongxun wants to see, what Fu Jinhuan is doing now is just a loving mother, not what a queen of the world should do.
There are still undercurrents in the harem, and some small activities of Qin Guifei and Du Guifei, Guo Zongxun believes that naturally they can't hide from Guo Rong's eyes, but Guo Rong seems to have taken an attitude of resignation.
The emperor's family is the most ruthless, Guo Zongxun clearly knows that his father attaches importance to him, and he also attaches importance to his three younger brothers, and his only advantage now is that he is the actual eldest son of the emperor and the first heir to the throne.
The battle of the harem and the battle for the heir, in the eyes of many emperors, must be carried out, each with its own means and its own magical powers, so that the emperor can choose his favorite one to become the prince.
However, Guo Zongxun seemed to think more than Guo Rong.
"Wei Banban, have you found out that the two concubines of Qin and Du have any connection with the Southern Tang Dynasty?"
The Southern Tang Dynasty has been a place where beauty tricks have been rampant since ancient times, because that place does produce beauties, beauties who sink fish and geese, and close the moon and shy flowers.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Wu Yue was there, and the king of Yue, Gou Jian, tasted the gall, and sent a Xi Shi to cause trouble in Wu State, of course, Xi Shi is beautiful, kind, gentle, and brave, she just did what a Yue woman should do.
This Qin Guifei and Du Guifei, in Guo Zongxun's opinion, are not necessarily worse than Xi Shi in appearance, they are definitely beauties who have captivated the country and the city, and it is no wonder that Guo Rong has such a preference for them, and the Yanfu Palace, which has made Fu Jinhuan, is now deserted and can run rabbits everywhere.
Li Jing wants to be a Gou Jian, but Guo Rong is not a husband, he spoils these two women, in addition to enjoying beauty and gentleness, the main thing is to reproduce the heirs of the Guo family.
"Master, the two concubines are naturally connected with people outside the palace, these people are all from the Southern Tang Dynasty, but so far, the things they have secretly passed are some southern food, and what they do is not particularly hidden, presumably it is also acquiesced by the emperor."
Wei Zhongxian is now more and more satisfied with Guo Zongxun, he knows when to be sharp, when to be detailed, and when to add his own judgment, saving Guo Zongxun more questions.
"Continue to stare at, since the two concubines can ask for the privilege of eating outside the palace from their father, it must have taken a lot of effort, and then check the restaurants that send them food, as detailed as possible, by the way, is there a problem with manpower?"
"Master, this time the minions have really encountered a problem, there are not enough manpower, and there is not enough money."
Guo Zongxun believed that Wei Zhongxian would not and did not dare to deceive him, and asked him to inquire about many things before, and he did it properly as soon as he obeyed the order, this time......
It's a pity that Jinyiwei and Dongchang can't be established yet, and it is really difficult to rely on Wei Zhongxian's personal ability to find out the news for him.
"Then stare at the palace first, the food brought from outside the palace, presumably my father has also tasted it, so I will check it from this aspect, strive to get the residues of food, take it to Guo Wanche, and give it to the old lady, you know what to say, right?"
"The slave obeys the order, the master can rest assured, the slave said that because the slave is greedy, these are the food that the slave secretly sent in from outside the palace, thinking that the four princes may also like it, but they are worried that these foods are unclean, so they will ask Imperial Doctor Guo to check it, if there is no problem, the slave will go and sacrifice it to the four princes."
Wei Zhongxian's explanation, Guo Zongxun was very satisfied, so even if Guo Rong knew, it would not be strange, because he had already acquiesced to Qin and Du's two concubines eating outside the palace, and now there is one more Guo Zongxun, it is nothing.
There is also Wei Zhongxian's cautious approach, which will also be appreciated by Guo Rong, and even he will increase the means of inspecting food outside the palace.
"Wei Companion will accompany you, this prince is going to start taming horses."
In the small school field, the dark clouds and snow have been led out by Zhang Tieniu, this guy has saved his head, and he has suffered a little crime on his buttocks, which is already a blessing, and people have become a lot more honest and wooden, although he still looks like a fool, but he is a little more stable.
After Guo Wanche's repeated inspections, the dark clouds covered the snow of the divine horse, and did not find anything abnormal, and the problem of liking to eat rare forage was also brought over, and the divine horse was honest after being hungry for three days.
Guo Zongxun circled around the dark clouds and covered the snow a few times, and Guo Rong specially sent two eunuchs from the imperial horse prison to train the horses, and they were standing respectfully aside.
"You two, don't be stunned, hurry up and teach the prince how to train horses."
Guo Zongxun said in his heart, this prince has even tamed the tiger and the wolf king, and there must be no problem in taming this dark cloud and snow.
