Zhongshu Ling Mansion is located not far from the southeast corner of the imperial palace, which was originally the ancestral residence of the Zhao family.

After Zhao Kuangyin entered the palace, it became Zhao Guangyi's residence.

In the second year of Jianlong, after the Great Song Dynasty conquered Li Chongjin, Zhao Guangyi added the Zhongshu Order.

Zhao Kuangyin ordered to expand the Zhao Mansion with the Prince's Mansion system, not only rebuilt the front courtyard hall, but also built a beautiful backyard for the Zhongshu Ling Mansion.

Zhao Guangyi didn't like to practice martial arts with the guards in the front yard, and every morning, as long as it didn't rain, he would practice martial arts on the back mountain.

The back hill is about 20 meters high, planted with trees and grass, and a pavilion has been built on the top of the mountain.

After practicing martial arts every day, standing in the pavilion and looking at the palace not far away has become a habit he has developed recently.

But today, his gaze did not drift to the palace, but fell on the east palace mansion in the southeast of the palace.

The Zhongshu Lingfu and the East Palace are closer, and there is only one chariot neighborhood and two streets in the middle.

Standing on the top of the mountain, across the jagged low neighborhoods, the main hall of the East Palace, which is less than 500 meters apart, is clearly visible.

Behind him, several men held basins of water, holding towels motionless.

Until the arrival of a middle-aged man dressed in a scribe's robe shattered the tranquility here.

Zhao Guangyi beckoned, and the subordinate immediately came over with a basin of water, and Zhao Guangyi hastily washed it and wiped off the water stains.

The middle-aged scribe walked up the bluestone steps to the top of the mountain, Zhao Guangyi had already sent his subordinates to disperse, and soon, only Zhao Guangyi and this scribe were left on the top of the mountain.

"Ji Hua is so early today, obviously bringing me good news."

The middle-aged scribe smiled and said, "Fu Yin, this is a self-examination, no matter what, it's not good." ”

Zhao Guangyi shook his head with a smile, pointed to the bench in the pavilion and said with a smile: "Sit down and talk." ”

The middle-aged scribe was not polite, invited Zhao Guangyi to sit down, and then sat down opposite him.

"Yesterday afternoon, the lower officials checked the people in the house, engaged at all levels, the main book, did not rest overnight, questioned more than 100 people, and finally asked the cause and effect clearly."

Zhao Guangyi didn't wait for him to speak, he groaned for a while and asked, "Cui Che?" ”

The middle-aged scribe stood up and said, "Zhongshu Ling, please listen to the words of the lower official." ”

Zhao Guangyi said sincerely: "Ji Hua, since I elected you as the official of Kaifeng Mansion two years ago, I took a fancy to you for your uprightness, why do you intercede today?" ”

The middle-aged scribe's surname is Jia Mingyan, and the word is Jihua. His father, Jia Wei, once served as a scholar in Jinzhong, and gave things to the middle of the matter, and gave the main book of Linzi in order to shade, and sentenced Lizhou.

After Zhao Guangyi was appointed as the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, he knew that this person was upright, and he had a good reputation for investigating and judging cases, and was elected as the official of Kaifeng Mansion.

In terms of internal affairs, Zhao Guangyi has made a lot of use of his abilities.

In the case of A Furong yesterday, Zhao Guangyi suspected that his subordinates did it from the beginning, and without waiting for others to investigate, he first sent Jia Yan to investigate.

It is said that Jia Yan should call him Fu Yin or Yin Jing, but Zhao Guangyi likes others to call himself Zhongshu Ling.

Jia Yan hugged his fists and said: "Although Cui Che acted biasedly, he was sincere to Zhongshuling, and he deliberately startled the snake, also to help Zhongshuling observe the reaction of the DPRK and China.

The lower officials questioned more than a dozen people involved in this matter, and all of them were selfless.

Moreover, after yesterday's temptation, the prince's reaction is also worthy of our vigilance, which is really more merit than demerit. ”

Zhao Guangyi pondered and asked, "Based on what you see, how can you be vigilant?" ”

"The prince is fourteen years old, and in the past, he has always emphasized martial arts and light literature, and does not want to forge ahead. But yesterday, in front of the civil and military officials of the two dynasties, he crossed the Zhongshu order and took the same car with the monarch.

seems to be careless, but he leaves an impression in front of the civil and military officials that he is the rightful heir. In this way, how can Zhongshu Ling deal with himself? Behind this, I'm afraid there is no guidance from a master......"

Zhao Guangyi threw the towel in his hand on the ground and said angrily: "Justifiable? Joke! Who draped the yellow flag on the official family? Who is thinking about the Great Song Dynasty! He is a yellow-mouthed child, but he is from an official family, and he can cross me! ”

Jia Yan shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "Zhongshu Ling is angry, looking at Taizong of the previous dynasty from afar, and making great contributions to the Tang Dynasty, isn't it too much to become a prince?" In the end, he still relied on the desperate fight of Xuanwumen.

Therefore, although this position is important, the key is to see who is more powerful.

As long as the Zhongshu Order controls the forbidden army, Kaifeng Mansion, the world will fall into the hands of the Zhongshu Order.

However, now that the prince is getting older, in order to prevent him from taking advantage of Lun Chang to advance, Zhongshu Ling must also take more precautions. When necessary, I can't take care of my uncle and nephew......"

Zhao Guangyi was silent for a while before he spoke: "Cui Che and the others participated, in order to prevent leakage, all of them were arranged to be in the Xijing army, and then let them come back when the Kaifeng Mansion was over." ”

Jia Yan knew that the prince swept the face of the Zhongshu Order yesterday, and this person, the Zhongshu Order was secured.

His mood also relaxed, he hugged his fist at Zhao Guangyi, and was just about to say goodbye, but he heard Zhao Guangyi ask again: "My nephew is grounded in the house, what happened?" ”

"He is in the house, but it is rumored that the family of the girl who was injured on the road yesterday should be compensated for the sake of fame. In addition, he also sent someone to the Tai Hospital to ask for some medicinal materials, I don't know if he was injured yesterday. ”

These are all trivial things, and Zhao Guangyi doesn't have the heart to think about it. "Let people keep an eye on the East Palace, whether it is with his group of friends, or with the contact in the palace, if there is anything abnormal, report it immediately."

"No......"

In the East Palace, Zhao Dezhao was grounded, not only could he not leave the house, but even his brothers were turned away.

However, Zhao Dezhao is not boring in the house, he has accumulated a hundred years of experience in the Ming Dynasty, and if he wants to realize it in the Song Dynasty, he must not only do it, but also copy more information.

Relying on him alone, just copying the framework, it will take at least two years.

So, he's busy.

In the afternoon, the Pei family went back to move, and Zhao Kuangyin, who was in the palace, also got the prescription sent by the hospital.

In addition to this recipe, the "Immortal Qigong Technique" sent by Yuan Burang made him even more puzzled.

Liu Xiao could deceive Yuan Burang, but he couldn't deceive him. If there was this trick, Liu Xiao was afraid that he would have submitted it a long time ago.

After reading this trick carefully, he didn't find anything wrong, he was originally a martial arts master, if someone cheated, he could also see it.

Leave this skill in the study, let people copy a few copies, and prepare for everyone to practice.

As for where this Pure Yang Patriarch's Qi Alchemy came from, Zhao Kuangyin had no intention of paying attention to it now......

When he met Mrs. Blossom yesterday, he realized that there are really beautiful women in this world.

Such a woman, accompanying Meng Chang, that bad old man, is really a pearl!

However, Meng Chang is the king he wants to use to invite the name of the world, how can he start?

Zhao Kuangyin hesitated because of this, he had no intention of dealing with politics, his heart was like grass growing, and he couldn't be at peace for a moment.

As an emperor, he thinks he is well-informed, although there is no queen in the harem now, but there are also many concubines, but none of them are like Mrs. Hua Rui, which makes him fascinated and haunted by dreams.

A burst of footsteps accompanied by the laughter of the children got closer and closer, and Zhao Kuangyin's face also showed a kind smile.

Although he is a man who is bewitched by beauty, he is also a father.

Zhao Kuangyin, who had two wives, had a total of nine children with his wife He, and only four survived.

Before he became emperor, his wife He had died, and he remarried Wang.

However, the Wang family is also a thin life, only served as a queen for more than three years, lived to be 22 years old, gave birth to a daughter, and died of a serious illness.

Now the palace has added a group of concubines, but Zhao Kuangyin has no intention of making a queen.

Except for Zhao Dezhao, who is old and ready to marry, the other children live in Gyeongbokgun.

In an instant, a ten-year-old girl with a girl of seven or eight years old and a boy of five or six years old took the lead in entering the Imperial Palace.

Behind them, there were several elderly eunuchs and palace maids, one of whom was holding a two or three-year-old girl in her arms.

The leading girl was already a little lady, and when she came closer, she bent her knees and said crisply: "Daddy, my daughter hasn't seen the second brother for a few days, and she wants to go to the East Palace to play with the second brother." ”

Zhao Kuangyin shook his head and said with a smile: "The fourth sister won't lie, I'm afraid that the fourth brother will ask you to come." ”

The fourth brother, Zhao Defang, who was only five or six years old, couldn't hide it, and twisted his little finger a little. "Daddy, it's me who wants to play with my second brother."

The sixth sister who was held in the nurse's arms struggled to come down, but the nurse didn't dare to make a lot of effort and let her down.

She stumbled towards Zhao Kuangyin, but the target was the melon on the case.

The sixth sister has a hard life, and she died before she remembered her mother, although the palace maid in the harem can take good care of her, but the child without a mother is always pitiful.

Zhao Kuangyin reached out and picked her up and put her on his lap. "The sixth sister didn't call her daddy today......"

The sixth sister stretched out her hand to take the melon, and shouted Daddy with a deflated mouth, and she was about to cry aggrieved.

Zhao Kuangyin handed her a piece of melon, and she immediately turned dark clouds and showed a lovely smile.

After chatting with a few children in turn, so as not to let them feel that they were neglected, Zhao Kuangyin said: "I banned the second brother's feet yesterday, don't bother him, and let the Ministry of Internal Affairs arrange for you to go to the East Palace the day after tomorrow." ”

Zhao Defang is six years old this year, but he also knows that being grounded is not allowed to go out. "Daddy, did the second brother do something wrong?"

Zhao Kuangyin was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face faded.

Yesterday's surrender ceremony, did Zhao Dezhao really do something wrong? If they really did something wrong, why didn't the ministers mention it at this morning's court meeting?

If the clan is at fault in the past, I'm afraid the saliva of those officials will be sprayed on his face!

But this time it was calm, and even Zhao Pu didn't think there was anything wrong with the second brother getting into Meng Chang's car.

However, there is a Zhao Guangyi mixed in this.

Even if he wronged this son, he couldn't make the third brother unhappy, without him, he couldn't be the emperor at all.

He turned his head to look at the eldest fourth sister, and said softly: "The fourth sister can ask someone to go to the East Palace to report it, and wait for the day after tomorrow to go over and play with the second brother." ”

The fourth sister nodded in response, and comforted the fourth brother Zhao Defang, who was a little unwilling.

Although she herself is only eleven years old, she is already like an adult, and she takes good care of her younger siblings.

The four of their children have no mothers, and the saying that the eldest sister is like a mother is not something that is not said.
