Zhao Kuangyin's fear of Pei Ge'an comes from understanding.

When you don't know Pei Ge'an, an emperor will not be afraid of a ten-year-old girl.

But the more contact and understanding, the more Zhao Kuangyin, the emperor, had a fear from his heart for Pei Ge'an.

His son was fortunate to have received the help of the gods, but a little girl who had nothing to do with him, and with the help of the gods, he was the source of the disaster.

Thinking that she didn't have any fear of herself, the emperor, and thinking that she usually contacted herself, she didn't seem to take herself in her eyes at all, Zhao Kuangyin felt a sense of grievance.

He quickly found out a series of stories about Pei Ge'an and Zhao Dezhao's encounter, all of which originated on the fourth day of the sixth month, when Zhao Dezhao was shocked and collided with her outside the gate of Daliang.

Both of them were in a coma for a period of time, and perhaps in that short period of time, their souls left their bodies and traveled for thousands of years.

In particular, in the past six months, he also discovered the difference between Zhao Dezhao and Pei Ge'an.

His son is a man, and he attaches more importance to the continuation and change of the country, so what he learns is more focused on military and political affairs.

And Pei Gean is a woman, she knows more about some details, such as industry, this unfamiliar word, in the past six months, has formed a complete concept.

Industry, like agriculture, is a system.

Agriculture can fill people's stomachs, but industry can make people strong.

Although he did not know how powerful the end of industry could be, he knew one thing very well, that is, everything in the future that his son described to himself was realized through industrial means.

He needs Sister Pei to establish an industrial system, but this force must be controlled by him.

However, the girl didn't seem to care about him.

What's more, he has found out that his younger brother has become what he is now, and it was her hand.

What happened on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is no evidence to prove that Sister Pei did it.

But when Zhao Kuangyin saw the various raw materials in Sister Pei's yard, he set his suspicious eyes on Sister Pei.

And it was not difficult to find out her whereabouts that night.

She was also in the palace that day at the invitation of the fourth sister, and she quickly left the palace without suspicion afterwards.

This evidence is sufficient to prove ......

He was afraid of this power, and he didn't want to lie half-dead in bed like Zhao Guangyi.

Although she doesn't necessarily do this to herself, it is also a threat.

Having people investigate the secrets of that small courtyard only confirmed this even more.

Until midnight, Du An and Liu Zhuang made every bit of today's action clear.

"The two of you have made great achievements today, but you can't leak anything out, if I hear any rumors, I will be severely punished."

"Whoa."

Zhao Kuangyin nodded to Meng Kuan, Meng Kuan beckoned, and two small yellow doors walked in with trays.

One tray contains two pieces of gold, and the other contains two pieces of waist cards.

Zhao Kuangyin said again: "Duan." ”

With a hint of joy on his face, Duane bowed and said, "Yes." ”

"The second brother is in Xiangyang, and the Ministry of Industry sent Yu Langzhong Chu Meng, and Lu Duoxun of the Ministry of War to assist the second brother in cutting wood and timber, cleaning up the river, and now you are promoted to the internal service, supervising the fortifications of Xiangyang, and the military."

Liu Zhuang lowered his head and glanced at Du An, his heart full of loss.

He knew very well why Duane had been promoted, because he was the one who knew the most about workmanship in the internal prison.

Although I am older, I don't know how to work, so I didn't seize this opportunity.

Du An was overjoyed, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and responded: "The slave and maid must be Your Majesty's eagle dog and help Your Majesty guard Xiangyang." ”

Zhao Kuangyin pondered for a while but said: "Going to Xiangyang is not only my eagle dog, but also the second brother's appreciation." You are proficient in identifying minerals and familiar with craftsmanship, and you should do your best for your second brother. ”

"Whoa!"

"Another ......," Zhao Kuangyin's voice became low. Pei's person is unfathomable and unreasonable, you have to work hard, and it is better to be appreciated by her. ”

Du An, who has been in the palace for almost twenty years, is naturally smart from a small eunuch to a eunuch who has been taught the knowledge of writing.

In the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, eunuchs were generally not allowed to be literate, but the palace also needed some loyal eunuchs to supervise the military and government.

Let him supervise the wars and build cities, if he doesn't know anything, how can he supervise?

Therefore, in each group of eunuchs, some smart little eunuchs will always be selected, teach them to read and write from an early age, and be responsible for all aspects according to their strengths.

Like Tong Liang, Du An, and Liu Zhuang, they were all selected in this way.

However, in order to prevent their dictatorship, basically, the positions given to them will not be very high, and the middle and high-level still use illiterate eunuchs, and only when they reach the level of inner servants, do they use literate eunuchs.

He knew very well that he was able to be promoted to the internal affairs this time, not because he was literate, but because he had managed the inner reservoir ore for a long time, and had supervised the construction of the imperial tomb and the Kaifeng Mansion, so he knew more about this aspect.

This is a great opportunity, as long as you don't make mistakes this time, you will have the opportunity to become the head of the Inner Servant Province in the future.

And this time I went to Xiangyang, supervised the construction of the fortifications, and supervised the Pei family, which is the real task.

Moreover, the real purpose cannot be exposed yet, and we must do our best to do things for the second brother and Pei's family.

After sending Liu Zhuang and Du An away, Zhao Kuangyin sat alone in the apse of Zichen Palace, looking at the moon and drinking alone.

Meng Kuan appeased and knocked Du ane back, Zhao Kuangyin had already drunk a little too much.

When he saw Meng Kuan, he beckoned to him. "Come and sit down and have a drink with me."

The Luohan bed that Zhao Kuangyin was sitting on was as wide as a bed, with a table in the middle and some wine and food on it.

He reclined to the side, not like an emperor, like a madman.

It was not the first time that Meng Kuan had accompanied Zhao Kuangyin to drink, he did not give too much humility, but knelt on the other side of the table, poured himself a glass of wine, and then raised it with both hands. "The old slave is here to congratulate Your Majesty, the second brother is better than the blue, Your Majesty should be at ease in the future."

Zhao Kuangyin laughed, drank all the wine in the cup, and then looked at Meng Kuan. "In this world, for this position, are there fewer enemies between fathers and sons, and brothers? Don't talk about it far, the former dynasty Taizu, Taizong, didn't father and son become enemies? In this world, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind! ”

Meng Kuan didn't dare to answer this, so he helped Zhao Kuangyin pour wine again and said: "The second brother insists on going to Xiangyang, I'm afraid that I don't want to have an estrangement with Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Kuangyin shook his head and sighed: "If it weren't for that, how could I be so supportive of him?" Entrusting all the noble children of the Manchu Dynasty to him is a trust and a temptation! ”

Although Zhao Kuangyin currently strongly supports Zhao Dezhao, he is not without a little concern in his heart.

Zhao Dezhao wants to go to Xiangyang, this is the best result, he just got the guidance of the gods, and he also needs time to strengthen himself.

Sending him far away to Xiangyang, on the one hand, to see what achievements he can make, and on the other hand, it also has the meaning of prevention.

Meng Kuan saw that Zhao Kuangyin was a little drunk, and he was already drunk for three minutes, and he didn't dare to answer. This knot between father and son is not something that he, an outsider, can interfere with.

For the sake of this position, what father-son, brotherly love, is not worth mentioning.

Zhao Kuangyin didn't care whether Meng Kuan answered or not, and looked at the piece of paper written by Liu Zhuang again. "You say, since the second brother knows so much now, why don't you show it to me? Don't you believe me as a father? ”

Meng Kuan said cautiously: "Maybe the second brother has some scruples in his heart......"

"Worried about my father?" Zhao Kuangyin slapped the case heavily and said angrily: "He didn't know that he hated me? None of those children were not afraid of me, but none of them were willing to be close to me! I'm so alone! ”

Meng Kuan said with relief: "Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities, naturally you are less close to a few brothers and sisters, for the sake of this world, Your Majesty ......"

Zhao Kuangyin interrupted him and said, "They don't know that I'm protecting them, it's just ......"

He suddenly remembered what Zhao Dezhao had told him, Zhao Guangyi killed him, killed his two sons, and wanted to protect them, but he didn't protect any of them.

The original indignation in my heart dissipated at once.

Indeed, he is not a competent emperor, nor is he a competent father.

For a while, there was even a feeling of despair.

Originally, I had a lot of things to say in my heart, but now I don't have any emotions to tell. He sighed heavily. "I'm going to see how far he can go......"

There is no curfew during the Lantern Festival, and Zhao Dezhao and they played until Zizheng, that is, at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night in later generations, before returning to the East Palace.

The fourth sister can still hold on, and the sixth sister has fallen asleep on Zhao Dezhao's shoulder.

returned to the East Palace, settled the four sisters and them to sleep, and prepared to go to the Wang family's courtyard.

Two wives, Zhao Dezhao is now each taking turns to accompany each other for one night, three times and one round off.

In order to pass on the lineage, it is necessary to sing songs every night and have six days before one day off.

Even if you have a menstrual affair, you can also sleep with a dowry.

However, before the birth of a son-in-law, it is generally not allowed to give birth to a child by a dowry.

As soon as I walked to the door of the fourth sister's small courtyard, I saw the maid walking over with Pei Ge'an.

"You don't rest so late?"

Pei Ge'an glanced at Tong Liang with a lantern and said, "You guys step back first, I have something to say to the second brother." ”

Seeing Pei Ge'an's serious expression, Zhao Dezhao waved his hand, and Tong Liang and her maid quietly retreated.

"Someone in my study came in and moved the materials I had marked. But I asked just now, and no one trespassed. ”

Zhao Dezhao asked, "What do Xu Yongchang and Jia Siyi say?" ”

Xu Yongchang is the senior class of the chamberlain, and Jia Siyi is the palace maid in charge of Pei Ge'an's small courtyard.

"Today's dinner party for the servants, Xu Yongchang went to the palace, and the palace maids also had a supper given by the emperor, and they also organized to watch fireworks together tonight."

Zhao Dezhao nodded. "That is, the biggest object of suspicion is the emperor ......"
