New Year's Day has arrived, and as usual, the emperor takes his ministers to worship the sky, and then has a seven-day holiday.

When worshipping the sky, Yang Lin did not come because of illness, and accompanied his relatives in the house.

This year, the wind and rain are smooth, the snow is covered with snow, and the auspicious weather is continuous. But Zhao Si, who presided over the sacrifice to the sky, did not have the slightest joy, and after the routine was completed, he returned to the palace early.

It's rare to come to the Daqing Palace, Zhao Si hasn't had an early dynasty for a long time, it's not that he is lazy and doesn't want to have an early dynasty, but he has gradually canceled this court meeting.

The officials tacitly did not come, and handled government affairs in their respective offices, and everything was in order, as if the emperor was just a clay statue in the deep palace.

Zhao Si looked at the snowflake-like letters and recitals, and already understood in his heart that this world no longer belonged to Zhao Song.

The world's military, civilian, civil and military, how can there be anyone who dares to speak out to resist, and even if there is, it is a light talk.

On the first day of the first month of the third year of Xuanhe, the emperor ordered that in the middle of the book, he agreed to inspect the school in the Ming Hall and the title of Yang Lin.

All the processes have been prepared a long time ago, and the emperor gave an order, and it took less than half a day to complete the process step by step.

The Ministry of Rites finally presented, and Shaozai Yang Lin had a meritorious role in pacifying Jiaozhi, and asked for the title of King Yue.

In the Daqing Palace, Zhao Xi looked at this official letter, and his heart was full of helplessness.

It was not for nothing that Yang Lin chose him at the beginning, this Zhao Si is not a person with strong ambitions, he grew up in Bianliang and was not trained as a prince since he was a child.

After the elder brother succeeded to the throne, there were a number of princes left, and he was the emperor's younger brother, so there was no possibility of inheriting the throne.

An idle prince, all day long, just with his wife and concubines, friends, drinking and playing, rich and noble. Yang Lin values this, there is really something, he doesn't have the courage to give it a go.

Even Cao Chao, who is broken by jade and has nine layers, is not as good, and most of them will choose to endure it and be a noble idle king.

Just like the Chai family, Zhao Kuangyin has made a good start at this point, and he can be regarded as a descendant of Fuyan. He himself treated the Chai family well, and Yang Lin will also follow the example and open up to the Zhao family.

Now that such a heavy event is pressing on his head, Zhao Si has no way, and he can't even pass on the message.

As long as Yang Jian disagreed, he didn't even know what was going on outside the palace. The Inner Servant Province and the Imperial City Division are like two iron gates, guarding the Imperial City.

People outside can't get in, people inside can't get out, the Great Song Dynasty, which is full of flowers, is developing and changing everywhere, except for the ten miles of the imperial city.

Picking up the jade seal at hand, covering this official document mountain, Yang Jian, who was waiting next to him, couldn't wait to step forward and respectfully hold the edict.

"Official, if there is nothing else to do, the old slave will go to Zhaodefang to announce the decree?"

Yang Jian didn't have the slightest disrespect, it was not impossible to be mean and unkind at this time, but Yang Jian was too lazy to do so.

First, his heart is not so dark, and secondly, there is no need, the kings of the Zhao family for several generations have not been thin on him, especially the one on the jade floor.

The people and courtiers generally look at the Great Song Dynasty in this way, and the Zhao family has no bad feelings, and of course they can't have any good feelings.

Zhao Song has been in the world for so many years, and he has really done a lot of pickling things, and the only thing that really praises them is those scholars.

Gather the power of the world and provide for the scholars, of course, they are very satisfied with the Zhao officials. It's a pity that now this group of people is dead and degraded, and there is no use for it anymore.

Zhao Si was silent for a while, a little unwilling in his heart, more afraid of the future, things were coming to that terrible end step by step, and he couldn't do anything.

Looking at Yang Jian, the old slave was still kind and respectful, as if he was still facing the rich emperor, Zhao Si shook his head, and said, "Go ahead." ”

Yang Jian held the edict and withdrew from the Daqing Palace, and on the empty hall, the needles could be heard.

An unspeakable desolation surged into Zhao Si's heart, and the ancestral foundation was about to be gone.

This splendid hall more and more set off his sadness at this time, and Zhao Si suddenly had a thought.

The Empress Dowager Fu, who was holding the young emperor in her arms, is she also in her current state of mind...

A few wry smiles wafted through the hall...

In Zhaode Fang, the lights are colorful.

The New Year has arrived, and the outer courtyard is particularly lively, passing through the square full of carriages, several small chamberlains supported Yang Jian and walked off the carriage.

Glancing at the familiar three words of Zhaodefang, Yang Jian laughed unconsciously, and the little waiter next to him bent over and hugged him, and said with a smile: "Godmaster, what are you laughing at." ”

"The king with a different surname, this has not happened for many years, how fortunate it is for our family to be able to read the edict."

After entering the courtyard, everyone recognized Yang Jian, and Yang Lin came out after a while.

Now it is the middle of winter, and Yang Lin is wearing a stone blue fur velvet, which is more and more luxurious.

"Brother Yang, be healthy in the New Year!" Yang Lin greeted the New Year with joy.

Yang Jian returned the salute with a smile, and after a while, he rushed from his sleeve and pulled out an edict.

Yang Lin took it and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Brother, why did you send this edict?" ”

The edict is to show the majesty of the royal family with a straight face, of course Yang Jian refused, he laughed a few times, and said: "Congratulations to King Yue, congratulations to King Yue, you have to be crowned a bachelor of Longtu Pavilion, a doctor of Zijin Guanglu, 1,500 households in the food town, and 900 households in practice." In fact, since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, there is no only pillar of the country that can be worthy of this king. ”

Yang Lin's face was calm, this was all something he knew half a year ago, but it was just going according to plan.

He handed the edict to Xu Saiyue behind him, and instructed: "Receive the study." ”

Xu Saiyue bent down and retreated, and after a while, the drums outside were loud, and it turned out that the Ministry of Rites had sent the "Imperial Gift" robe and crown belt, and the prince's honor guard.

Xu Zhichang broke into the mansion, happened to meet Xu Saiyue, and said with a blessing: "Uncle, New Year's Day is healthy." ”

Xu Zhichang hurriedly stopped, beaming with joy, and asked, "Shaozai... Oh, is it His Royal Highness King Yue, in the hall? ”

Xu Saiyue nodded and said, "I've been talking about half a cup of tea with Yang Daguan in the palace." ”

Now that she has been crowned a prince, this Xu Saiyue and her two little aunts are not the future reliance of my Xu family.

Xu Zhichang thought of this and said with a smile: "Yue'er, how are you doing in Zhaodefang?" ”

Every time this second uncle comes, he almost symbolically greets himself, and he is quite disgusted with the meaning of being a maid in the house.

Xu Saiyue was still saddened by this, and when he saw that his attitude had changed greatly, he was somewhat worried in his heart.

However, the girl's family naturally took her mother's family as her parent, so she smiled and said: "The house is very good to Yue'er, thank you uncle for your concern." ”

Xu Zhichang thought he was concerned, nodded and said, "If you serve His Royal Highness King Yue, your father and your grandfather will be at ease." ”

Xu Saiyue smiled, said goodbye to this realistic uncle, and went straight to the study.
