Chapter 0724: Zhao Xu's Two Faces
Kou Ji didn't stay in the palace for long, and then left the palace with the things that Zhao Zhen generously rewarded.
The birth of the prince and the princess is something worthy of celebration by the whole world.
After Kou Ji left the palace, he found that the people of Bianjing City had already gotten the news.
One by one, they wandered through the streets, as if waiting for something.
When Kou Ji was about to leave Bianjing, he knew what the people were waiting for.
With a stroke of his pen, Zhao Zhen wrote an edict of amnesty to the world, sent people to the government offices of various places, and at the same time instructed the palace people to distribute happy money, wine and meat to the people of Bianjing.
The wealthy families of the Great Song Dynasty were so generous.
When encountering a happy event, he likes to pull people from a street to eat and drink, set up a flowing water seat, and whoever comes over to say an auspicious word can ask for a meal of wine.
Even if it's Hanako who hides in the corner on weekdays, when something like that happens, you can mix a little wine and meat.
As the first wealthy family in the Great Song Dynasty, the royal family is naturally more generous.
When encountering a happy event, the whole city was immediately invited to eat and drink, and by the way, there was an amnesty for the world.
The prisoners in the prison cells were escorted to the northwest, Hexi and other places for hard labor as early as the summer solstice.
Zhao Zhen's amnesty to the world did not have a great impact on public security in various places.
After all, three classes of officials have just been added to various places, and the manpower is very sufficient, if those murderers are released, they will be restless and can be quickly arrested.
Therefore, Zhao Zhen's amnesty to the world is more of a symbolic gift.
His original intention may just be to tell the world that I have a daughter.
The people of Bianjing City don't care what Zhao Zhen's intentions are, they only know that they can take advantage of the royal family today.
As long as it is something that can take advantage of the royal family, the people of Bianjing City will not miss it.
Even if there is no shortage of food and drink at home, or even if the family is rich, they will rush to the place where the royal reward is issued and ask for a reward.
Kou Ji had already been rewarded by Zhao Zhen, so he didn't have the heart to go with the people to grab the wine and meat issued by the royal family, he ordered the coachman to drive the carriage and staggered back to the palace courtyard.
When I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I heard the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping.
When I entered the mansion, I saw a three-year-old baby, dragging a black and white little guy in his hand and scurrying around the house, and a group of maids and servants followed cautiously behind him, shouting in panic one by one.
Han Wazi dragged the little black and white little guy to the door of the main hall, picked up the black and white little guy, and hugged him fiercely, the little guy in Le's arms only stuck out his tongue, but he himself stood at the door of the main hall and smiled innocently.
Kou Ji stepped into the door of the mansion, and a big round guy appeared beside him, holding his legs and not letting go, screaming vigorously.
Kou Ji sighed, separated the servant maid, stepped forward, snatched the black and white little guy from Han Wazi's hand, and gave it to the big guy holding his thigh, and then slapped Han Wazi's ass.
The big guy took the little guy back from Kou Ji's hand, took the little guy in his mouth, twisted his round body, and quickly left the main hall of the other courtyard.
The Han Wazi in Kou Ji's arms was slapped on the buttocks, and he didn't cry or make trouble, but just smirked at him.
"Daddy......"
Kou Ji sighed after Han Wazi called out to him, and carried Han Wazi into the backyard.
Han Wazi is Kou Tianci.
He was in Kou Ji's arms, very dishonest, looking around, as if he wanted to sneak out and find something fun to play.
Bullying the Iron Eater is one of his few pleasures.
When he was a year old, the female iron-eating beast on Kou Mansion was in heat, and Kou Ji took it to Zhu Mansion for a trip.
There is a group of iron-eating beasts in the Zhu Mansion.
After Kou Ji took it to Zhufu, the mother's iron-eating beast was successfully conceived, and when she gave birth to a cub this year, she became Kou Tianci's plaything.
After Kou Tianci ran away, he always slipped past the disaster.
The iron-eating beast was raised by the people of Koufu, and in addition to always liking to hug people's thighs, it did not hurt the people in the mansion.
Otherwise, Kou Tianci would inevitably suffer a crime.
Iron eating beasts are no longer a rarity in Bianjing City.
But whoever is powerful has one or two at home.
The Zhu Mansion is the most exaggerated, and it has enough to raise a group.
Zhu Neng also specially built a thousand-acre garden outside Bianjing City and raised it in it.
The iron-eating beast can become the pet of the powerful people in Bianjing, but it has nothing to do with Kou Ji.
The reason why the magnates in Bianjing City raised this thing was mainly to appease Zhao Zhen.
Because Zhao Zhen has been wandering in the Kou Mansion for a long time, it was very interesting to see the two iron-eating beasts in the Kou Mansion, and then he raised two of them.
Then all the magnates in Bianjing City began to raise.
Kou Ji originally thought that the iron-eating beast would fall into the hands of the magnates of Bianjing City and would be ruined to death.
But I didn't expect it.
The magnates of Bianjing City are more proficient in pet breeding than the other.
Under the careful care of the magnates, the iron-eating beasts reproduce surprisingly fast.
It made Kou Ji feel that the iron-eating beasts he saw in the later life were all fake.
Kou Ji hugged Kou Tianci to the backyard, and saw Xiang Yan holding her belly and swaying in the yard.
After seeing Kou Ji and Kou Tianci, he laughed in a low voice: "Ci'er went out to mess around again?" ”
Kou Ji put Kou Tianci down and said to Xiang Yan: "Can't you keep an eye on it?" ”
Xiang Yan laughed in a low voice: "Boys should be skinny, if they don't cry or make trouble, it will be terrible." ”
Kou Ji rolled his eyes, very dissatisfied with Xiang Yan's parenting logic.
After Kou Ji made people stare at Kou Tianci who was running around, he helped Xiang Yan sit down and asked: "Yan Shu was able to compose poems when he was four years old, why is my family three years old and still doesn't understand anything." ”
Xiang Yan was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "How smart is Yan Shu, it's not that you have beheaded ......"
Kou Ji pouted, "We're talking about two things......
Xiang Yan smiled: "In the eyes of the concubine, it is one thing. There are too many smart people in Bianjing City, and there are even more people who are smart but are mistaken by smart. The concubine hopes that Ci'er can be more honest.
If Ci'er is honest and has you and the official family to protect him, no one will trouble him. ”
Kou Ji glanced at Xiang Yan and said lightly: "I'm afraid the official family won't be close to him in the future." ”
The smile on Xiang Yan's face narrowed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "The one in the palace, is it born?" ”
Kou Ji was stunned and said: "The rumor has spread all over Bianjing City, will you not know?" ”
Xiang Yan cried and said with a smile: "Did the concubine keep an eye on this matter all the time, and didn't send anyone to inquire, how could she know." ”
Kou Ji pouted and said, "It's born...... A princess ......"
Xiang Yan was slightly stunned, and a meaningful smile appeared on her face, "It's exciting in the palace now......"
Kou Ji looked at Xiang Yan suspiciously,
Xiang Yan said with a smile: "The concubine is good friends with the queen and knows some unknown secrets in the palace. The one in the palace, during her pregnancy, did not rely on the goods in her stomach to bully her.
Even in front of the queen, he is very domineering.
The amount of eating and drinking is quite excessive.
There are many people in the palace who don't like her.
Now she has only given birth to a princess, but not a prince.
I'm afraid that those who don't like her will not give up. ”
When Kou Ji heard this, he frowned slightly and said, "We can't control this matter, and we can't manage it." You should not mention it, let alone tell outsiders about it. ”
Xiang Yan was slightly stunned, and said suspiciously: "You don't plan to talk to the official family about this?" ”
Kou Ji glanced at Xiang Yan and said nonchalantly: "You can know something, do you think the official family doesn't know?" ”
Xiang Yan was stunned.
Kou Ji continued: "You tell the people in the house to prepare, and someone will come to the door tomorrow to apprentice. ”
Xiang Yan was stunned for a moment, her eyes lit up, and she said with some excitement: "Xianggong wants to open the door to accept students?" Whose son-in-law? The Cao family, the Lu family, the Wang family, the Li family, the Zhang family, or a few others?
It shouldn't be.
Didn't they always say that you don't know how to learn?
How is it possible to entrust the children of the house to you to teach? ”
When Kou Ji heard this, his face darkened a little, "It's the son-in-law of the Zhao family......"
"The Zhao family?"
Xiang Yan was a little stunned, and then looked at Kou Ji with a stunned face and said, "The princess who just gave birth? ”
Kou Ji said with a dark face: "The sister of the official family, Princess Su, ......"
Xiang Yan nodded slowly, "If Princess Su says, that's okay, the concubine still thinks that the official family wants to let the princess who just gave birth to worship under the Xianggong Gate." If she really worships under the door of the Xianggong, then the Xianggong should not accept it.
Her mother is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
If the husband has a relationship with their mother and daughter, he will definitely get into a lot of trouble. ”
Kou Ji pursed his lips and didn't say much.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning.
Kou Ji and Xiang Yan were still asleep, and Kou Tianci broke into the bedroom with a big goose, making a fuss and waking them up.
Kou Ji caught Kou Tianci, spanked his ass, and asked the servants and maids to take him to other places to make trouble.
After Kou Ji washed up and eaten, he ordered someone to open all the doors of the Kou Mansion Courtyard and waited for Zhao Su's yellow-haired girl to arrive.
Kou Ji didn't wait long in the courtyard.
A very ordinary carriage stopped at the gate of the Koufu Annex.
It was Chen Lin who drove the carriage, and the one sitting in the carriage was naturally Zhao Xu.
Chen Lin led Zhao Su into the Kou Mansion Courtyard, drove all the way to the study where Kou Ji was.
Chen Lin didn't enter the door, but just let Zhao Su enter the study alone.
When Kou Ji saw Zhao Su, he was in a trance.
When I first saw Zhao Su in the past, Zhao Su was still a yellow-haired girl.
I haven't seen her for a long time, and Zhao Xu has become a big girl in a flash.
When I first saw her, the little girl who was open-mouthed and babbling has now become very quiet and elegant, with a curtain on her face, and she can't see her face clearly.
After looking at Zhao Su, Kou Ji slowly got up and arched his hand: "Minister Kou Ji, I have seen the eldest princess of the country......
When the first emperor was in power, he did not give him a title.
After Zhao Zhen ascended the throne, he was named the eldest princess of the country.
After Kou Ji gave a salute to Zhao Su, Zhao Su made a joke and returned the salute to Kou Ji, "The layman is polite......
Seeing this, Kou Ji was stunned again and again.
He felt that he was cheated by Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen said vigorously that Zhao Su studied Buddhism in the palace, but how could the people of the Buddhist family make a joke.
This is clearly a Taoist gift.
Zhao Xu clearly learned whether the Tao was good or not.
Kou Ji thought about it for a while, and felt that Zhao Zhen should not lie to him.
Then it is very likely that Zhao Xu has learned some Buddhism and Taoism, but he finally entered the Tao.
After Zhao Xu returned the salute to Kou Ji, he stood and said softly: "Qingxu is ordered by the imperial brother to come to Kou's privy council to study......
Void?
Good guys, the road number is here.
Kou Ji didn't know what to say, so he could only hum.
Koji sat back in his seat.
Zhao Xu whispered to Chen Lin, and Chen Lin entered the study with the gift of apprenticeship.
Zhao Xu took off the curtain fence and revealed a beautiful face, her face was childish, but full of calm and peace.
Kou Ji was slightly stunned for a moment.
He muttered to himself.
If Kou Tianci is a little older, Zhao Xu is a good daughter-in-law.
Zhao Xu naturally didn't know what Kou Ji thought, but after Chen Lin presented the gift, he bowed down to apprentice.
It stands to reason that worshipping a teacher is like worshipping a father, and that is to kneel three times and bow nine times.
But there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, Zhao Su dares to kneel, but Kou Ji does not dare to bear it.
"Students are ...... empty"
Zhao Xu hunched his waist and spoke softly.
Kou Ji knew Zhao Zhen's purpose of asking Zhao Xu to come to him to study, so when he heard this, he coughed dryly and said, "I don't remember, I'm going to accept a girl named Qingxu as a student." ”
Zhao Xu was slightly stunned, some hesitation flashed on his face, Bei Yan bit his red lips lightly, and said in a low voice: "Zhao ...... Flocculation...... I've seen Mr. ......."
Kou Ji nodded in satisfaction.
Zhao Xu served a cup of fragrant tea, Kou Ji served the fragrant tea, and admonished: "When you enter my door, you only need to follow one rule, that is, respect the teacher." If there is a violation, hang it up and beat it. ”
"Forehead ......"
Zhao Xu looked stunned.
Chen Lin simply screamed.
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and glanced at Chen Lin, "Do you have an opinion?" ”
Chen Lin said in a deep voice: "The princess is the body of a daughter......"
Kou Ji asked, "Can a daughter's body not respect the teacher?" When the official family used to study, he was reprimanded by his husband, and he had to accept it in a proper manner. ”
That is, when you are punished, you don't have to be beaten.
Someone was beaten in his place.
For example, the prince reads Kou someone.
Chen Lin opened his mouth, but did not speak again.
Zhao Xu worshiped Kou Ji as his teacher, which was the imperial order of Zhao Zhen.
Instead of Kou Ji on the pole, he wanted to accept Zhao Xu as a disciple.
After Kou Ji reprimanded Chen Lin, he looked at Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu hesitated for a long time, saluted Kou Ji, and said, "Students remember ......"
Seeing this, Kou Ji nodded with satisfaction.
He felt that although Zhao Xu had entered the Tao, his entry was not deep, and he had not reached the point where the water was not prosperous.
After facing the punishment he proposed to hang up and beat, she hesitated, which means that she still has something in her heart.
After Kou Ji nodded, Chen Lin gave a generous gift.
Kou Ji accepted the generous gift, and the matter was settled.
Kou Ji first ordered Zhao Su to stand aside, and then asked Chen Lin, "Does the official family have any other instructions?" ”
Chen Lin bowed slightly: "The official family told that the eldest princess of the country will live in the Kou Mansion first, when will the eldest princess of the country be taught by Kou, and when will the eldest princess of the country return to the palace." ”
Kou Ji was stunned when he heard this.
A hint of panic also appeared on Zhao Su's calm face.
Kou Ji frowned and said, "This is not appropriate, right?" ”
Zhao Suruo is still a little girl, and it is nothing to live in Kou Mansion.
But Zhao Su is already a big girl, and living in Koufu is easy to gossip.
Chen Lin bowed down and said: "The things set by the official family, the slaves and maids dare not disobey. If Kou Shumi's secret councillor thinks it is inappropriate, he can simply write to the official family to plead the matter. ”
Kou Ji sighed helplessly.
After Zhao Zhen threw Zhao Su's trouble to him, it is estimated that he will not have time to deal with her.
His defense in the book is estimated to be of little avail.
Kou Ji glanced at Zhao Xu and sighed, "Then stay." ”
When Zhao Su heard Kou Ji's words, there was actually a trace of anger in his eyes.
Kou Ji ignored Zhao Xu, looked at Chen Lin, who was standing motionless on the side, and said, "You still haven't returned to the palace to resume your life?" ”
Chen Lin straightened up and said lightly: "The official family ordered our family to go back to the palace at night to resume their lives, so the slave maid is not in a hurry to go back." ”
Speaking of this, Chen Lin clicked his lips and said, "I haven't tasted the wine and food of Koufu for a long time, and our family wants to try it." ”
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said, "Where is the kitchen, you know, find it yourself." ”
Chen Lin nodded slowly and left the study.
After Chen Lin left, Kou Ji looked at Zhao Xu who was standing and asked, "What books do you read on weekdays?" ”
Zhao Xu stared straight at Kou Ji, gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Jiuwen doesn't know what Mr. can teach his students?" ”
When Kou Ji heard this, he was stunned again and again.
The quiet and elegant posture you just now is pretended.
In the end, it's still the little witch who doesn't hold back.
Kou Ji felt that it was necessary for him to get to know Zhao Xu again.
Kou Ji looked Zhao Xu up and down, and said, "You obviously deceived everyone, why did you show your true face in front of me?" Just because I don't want to keep you in the house? ”
Zhao Xu snorted coldly and did not speak.
Kou Ji continued to ask, "You obviously haven't entered the Dao, why do you pretend to be an introductory person?" ”
Zhao Xu still snorted coldly and did not speak.
Seeing this, Kou Ji did not continue to ask.
Kou Ji said to Zhao Xu: "You don't want to say it now, and I don't force it." But you really shouldn't have deceived the teacher. As a division commander, I will punish you. ”
"Someone!"
Kou Ji shouted.
Zhao Xu stared at Kou Ji with a panicked face and shouted, "You dare?!" ”
Kou Ji ignored her.
When the steward of the Kou Mansion entered the study, he ordered: "Find two strong grandmothers, hang her, and spank her ten times." ”
Zhao Xuqi's eyes breathed fire, but he didn't shout.
Because she has to maintain the posture of having entered the Tao in front of outsiders.
In the end, Zhao Xu was pulled out of the study by two strong grandmothers.
After Zhao Su was pulled out, Kou Ji rubbed his eyebrows and said with a headache: "There is no one in the palace who is normal." ”
After muttering, Kou Ji left the study and went to the dining room not far from the kitchen.
As soon as I entered the dining room, I saw Chen Lin sitting eating and drinking, not polite at all.
Kou Ji walked over to Chen Lin and sat down.
As soon as he sat down, he heard Chen Lin shouting in a strange way: "Kou Ji, you are so bold, you dare to beat the princess." ”
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "It's like you haven't fought before." ”
Chen Lin glared and said, "Our family is under the emperor's order." ”
Kou Ji pursed his lips and said, "I am also under the emperor's order. ”
Chen Lin glared at Kou Ji viciously and did not speak again.
Kou Ji punished Zhao Su with Mr. 's tenth, and if he was punished, he would be punished.
Even if he told Zhao Zhen about this, Zhao Zhen would not care.
Since Zhao Zhen handed over Zhao Su to Kou Ji, he naturally trusted Kou Ji.
In order to teach Zhao Su, Kou Ji punished one or two, which is also common.
If the Manchu civil and military knew about this, they would have denounced Kou Ji one or two.
But it's just a denunciation, not enough to shout and kill Kou Ji.
Although the princess is a king, compared to Zhao Zhen, she is not a star and a half.
Although the princess of the Great Song Dynasty is noble, she does not have much sense of existence.
Mainly because there is no power in hand.
According to historical records, Wang Kai's grandson Wang Shu married a princess.
After marrying the princess, he threw the princess in the house and didn't ask, he spent all day drinking outside, and when he had no money, he asked the princess to do it.
It's okay to take the concubine to Hu in front of the princess, and the concubine often shows the princess's face.
Wang Shu was implicated by Su Shi, and after being demoted, the princess also prayed to the emperor to reinstate him.
Although after the death of the princess, the emperor punished Wang Xu, but it was only a demotion to the official.
It can be seen that Kou Ji punished Zhao Xu as a gentleman, which is not a big deal.
Kou Ji didn't care about it, and Chen Lin didn't really care about it.
While Kou Ji was eating and drinking in Chen Lin, he asked in a low voice: "How many people have you planted in my mansion, why did I just punish the eldest princess of the country in the study, and you received the news." ”
Chen Lin glanced at Kou Ji and said dissatisfiedly: "There are only three, or you personally selected them......"
Kou Ji was slightly stunned and said, "The person who was given by the palace before? ”
Chen Lin pouted and said, "The official family is very kind to you, and they haven't sent people to keep an eye on you in the real sense. It's just a symbolic dispatch of three or two people to your house.
That's it, and I also revealed some flaws to you in advance.
The official just wants to tell you that he is not a gloomy person.
I will not use insidious means against you. ”
Kou Jihu said suspiciously: "Really? ”
Chen Lin said in a deep voice: "If the official family really sends people to keep an eye on your mansions, do you think Lu Yijian, Wang Zeng, Zhang Zhibai and others will be able to sit still?" Do you think the Manchu civil and military will be able to sit still? ”
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
If Zhao Zhen really sent people to lurk in the mansions of the major civil ministers, the civil ministers would definitely write a letter of impeachment.
With the temperament of the ministers, even if they can't stop this matter, they will write a book to refute it and denounce Zhao Zhen's villainous behavior.
But so far, I have not seen the scholars write a letter denouncing this matter.
That illustrates two things.
The people sent out by Zhao Zhen were very deep, and they could not be triggered.
Or as Chen Lin said, Zhao Zhen did not send spies anywhere except for the spies he sent when he targeted Wu Xun before.
Chen Lin's words, Kou Ji will definitely not believe them all.
Chen Lin seemed to see that Kou Ji didn't believe it, so he continued: "Now that the military system has just been changed, the official family has assigned all the people of the Wu De Division to the place, and they are staring at the movements of the place, how can they have the heart to send people to keep an eye on you.
In a few days, those three people in your house will also be transferred away and go to other places to help. ”
