Chapter 68: The Prince's Thoughts

Zhao Zhen stood at the forefront of the civil officials, and the people behind him kept whispering, without him, these are all low-level civil officials, the ministers of the two prefectures have gone to their respective departments to rest, and only the low-level officials are in the Wende Palace.

They are strange why Zhao Zhen came to the Chang Dynasty as the crown prince, even if he looks at the government, he only needs to go to the Vertical Arch Hall to participate in the court, after all, the Chang Dynasty doesn't even come to the official family, but occasionally comes to see it, and the imperial history in the palace sees that the people are almost there, so they start to call the name loudly.

But Zhao Zhen felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the number of people, and Yushi pulled his neck and shouted the names of three hundred people, but only about a hundred people responded, and they were all heads of various departments, which was a bit excessive.

Seeing the prince's frowning appearance, the imperial historian standing next to him hurriedly explained: "His Royal Highness the prince doesn't know, all the ministers have important matters to do, and now they should report to the two mansions, and the queen will still need to use it later, so ......"

Zhao Zhen nodded and motioned for him to continue, it seems that this kind of attendance is as nominal as in later generations, and the middle management has begun to be absent. Could it be that Taizu was too diligent back then?

The only thing that comforted Zhao Zhen was that there was an acquaintance who accompanied him, the youngest son of Zhao Yunchu, Cao Guogong, and Zhao Yuanyan.

But after reading his name, many petty officials began to laugh, Zhao Zhen was keenly aware of the meaning of ridicule in the laughter, and some people even joked in a low voice: "The grandson of the dignified Taizong actually participated in the Chang Dynasty rain or shine, what a fool!" ”

Sometimes insisting on the right thing is ridiculed, and the ridicule of the petty official makes Zhao Zhen instantly think of the old man in later generations who fell and couldn't help him.

Could it be that the thinking of the Chinese people has already begun to deform in the Great Song Dynasty?!

Zhao Zhenmen turned his head and glared angrily at the petty official who was laughing at Zhao Yunchu and said, "How can you laugh above the court?!" ”

The imperial history in the palace hurriedly scolded: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is watching the government, this is how you show His Highness?" This may seem like a scolding, but it is a reminder.

The long snake array immediately hid the laughter, and all the officials stood solemnly, they forgot that the prince was here.

After the roll call was completed, Zhao Zhen looked at Zhao Yunchu behind him and said, "What is the title of cousin?" ”

Zhao Yunchu hurriedly saluted: "Back to Your Highness, I am the commander of the guards and the horse infantry army, and the deputy commander of the guards and the infantry division!" ”

Zhao Zhen was dizzy with a long list of names, and the official position of the Great Song Dynasty was a subordinate with a long name, and it was complicated, in order to weaken the rights of officials with the situation of stacking beds and houses.

Seeing Zhao Yunchu finish his tongue twister name in a serious manner, Zhao Zhen waved his hand anxiously: "Just say the abbreviation, it's too long for me to remember!" ”

"The deputy commander of the pro-military division of the guard!" Zhao Yunchu smiled shyly and summed it up in one sentence.

Zhao Zhen looked at this cousin in surprise, and he looked resolute and could show a shy expression, but he didn't know how to describe it.

"Oh, why does my cousin have to attend the Chang Dynasty every day?"

"My lord said that you must be persevering, and to be a military attachΓ©, you must abide by the rules set by the officials, so I will start from going to court every day."

Zhao Zhen sighed: "You did the right thing, how about I accompany you every day in the future?" ”

"That's a good feeling! That way, no one laughs at the two of us! How about visiting my house in the next court? ”

"It's a good word, I just promised Uncle Eighth to go to the Guogong Mansion to play!" Zhao Zhen laughed angrily at his words, this thing actually invited him warmly in order not to be laughed at!

Zhao Zhen left quickly, he was afraid that he would become the object of ridicule if he stayed with this thing for a long time, but at least this cousin's character was not bad.

When Zhao Zhen walked away, Zhao Yunchu showed a sly smile and said, "This prince's cousin is really interesting!" ”

-------------------

Today is the first time that Liu E got up very early, and Chang Chao did not go to participate as usual, but the view of the vertical arch hall must go, and the Zhongshu, the Privy Council, the Three Divisions, the Kaifeng Mansion, the Trial and Criminal Court, and the recital of the official must be carried out there.

The queen wore a solemn court dress and went to the vertical arch hall, at this time the minister was already standing in the hall, only Zhao Zhen hurried from the Wende Palace, who made the distance between the two halls very far.

Cao Yu looked at Zhao Zhen, who was sorting out his clothes and wiping his sweat, and said, "Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come in a hurry?" But the minister saw you in the waiting hospital. ”

Zhao Zhen looked at the fluttering wings on his head and said, "Because you ministers who are in danger of the world's safety will not participate in the Chang Dynasty, you may not be faster than me!" ”

Cao Yong, who was choked with this, was speechless, in the early days of Taizu Taizong and even the official family, all officials were to participate in the Chang Dynasty, and the official family attended in person, but after a long time, the official family was relaxed, and the ministers of the two governments were also relaxed.

Zhao Zhen's words had no problem at all, and he was even praised by Kou Zhun: "Your Highness attaches great importance to the great goodness of the subsection, but I have been slacking off for a long time!" ”

Cao Yu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the soft shouts of the imperial history in the palace: "The saint has arrived, and the hundred officials are welcome!" Although there are only a few dozen people, the imperial history is still meticulous, probably to show respect for the queen.

Zhao Zhen stood at the head of the ranks of civil officials, he was the prince of the country, and he should be ranked in front of the prime minister according to the order.

The rules of the Tang Dynasty of the left and right martial arts, the Great Song Dynasty inherited this very well, the queen Liu E took the maid Shi Shi and walked up the imperial steps, even if the official family was not there, she could not sit directly on the throne, but sat down on a slightly smaller seat on the side.

Zhao Zhen stood without saying a word in the entire early dynasty, and the only thing that made him different from others was that he was missing an ivory wat board in his hand, which was a notebook, and he wrote important things on it in case he forgot it during the court meeting.

Zhao Zhen didn't plan to ask about the government, of course he didn't need to take a wat board with him.

In fact, the so-called court meeting is very simple, the ministers of the two governments and the three envoys report important matters to the queen, and the queen gives instructions on the spot or asks to stay in the house, and can even ask the ministers to discuss matters when encountering major matters.

But how to find something valuable in these reports has become Zhao Zhen's main lesson, he looks at the problem with malice, and he feels that everything should be prepared for the worst in dealing with the government, so as to get valuable things from it.

Time is like flowing water, but for Zhao Zhen it is like a broken stream that winds up and dries up and flows slowly, the hall is a good place to enjoy the shade, ventilated and spacious, and when Zhao Zhen is a little drowsy, the court meeting is over, and then he feels that Kou Zhun's words are right, and his stomach is already empty.

But what he didn't expect was that Liu E actually asked the chamberlain to send a message to him to have breakfast together, which was considered a favor and a blessing, but Zhao Zhen felt that the banquet was not a good banquet......
