Chapter 108 The high places of the rest of the road are not cold

The pavilion is very elegant, and there is not too much vanity and luxury, but a stone table and four stone benches, because of the fear of cold, the stone benches are covered with cotton woven cushions. Zhao Youju looked at the pattern of the mat and knew that this cotton cloth was produced in Liuqiu.

Not only this cloth mat, but also the glass cup used for drinking in Shifu, is also produced in Liuqiu. Nowadays, the things that are sought for are all the rage in Lin'an. Every day, many traders rush to Qingyuan Mansion to buy the newly imported seafood.

Just like later generations, these self-seeking objects were called "foreign goods" by the people because they were shipped across the sea. The people of the Great Song Dynasty gradually heard of a country named Liuqiu overseas, and many people cited scriptures and classics to debate whether this Liuqiu was the place where Wei Wen went as mentioned in the "Book of Wu", or Liuqiu, which was divided into three kingdoms recorded in the "History of Sui". In the eyes of the government, whether it is Liuqiu or Liuqiu, it is an overseas wild land, and there are one or two properties, which is just an additional source of tax for the government.

"Don't worry, heir, although this Hua Yue has never confessed, from today onwards, the heir doesn't need to worry about someone assassinating."

The cane scolding of Hua Yue lasted for half an hour, and Zhao Heju heard Hua Yue's scolding faintly, and then fell silent. Zhao Youju was silent, and Shi Miyuan only smiled and persuaded when he was worried about the person behind Hua Yue.

"Thank you Xianggong for removing this hidden danger for me, it's just ...... Xianggong said that this Hua Yue is the general in front of the palace, so if you kill it with a cane, the official family will ......" Zhao Youju said slowly, and then glanced at Shi Miyuan, making him realize the melancholy in his eyes: "Won't it lead to punishment from the official family?" ”

Shi Miyuan laughed, Zhao Heju's attitude made him very satisfied, obviously the heart of this heir of King Yi is indeed towards his own side.

"The official Shengming, naturally, will not punish me for such a trivial matter." After Shi Miyuan smiled, he said very conceitedly: "Don't worry, heir, let's do it and stay in the future." ”

When he said such a sentence, he should have been relieved of himself. Zhao Heju groaned slightly, but he didn't dare to be careless, and said to Shi Miyuan: "Shi Xianggong, some time ago, Mr. Yu said to Xianggong, please ask Xianggong to find a teacher for me, and I don't know Xianggong's intention to ......."

Shi Miyuan heard him mention this matter again, and said with a slight smile: "Heir, this matter will be put in my heart, the teacher of the heir, when the famous Confucians in the world are selected, they will not teach the heirs to be disappointed." ”

The two chatted for a while, and when they saw that it was getting late, Zhao and Ju got up to say goodbye, and when Zhao and Ju were sent to the gate of this small courtyard, Shi Miyuan seemed to have just remembered, "Oh" and said: "The heir feels bored in the palace, and the prime minister has a thin gift, which has been sent to the palace, if the heir is bored, he can play carefully." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Heju's heart moved, and he didn't know what kind of gift this Prime Minister Shi Cheng would give him. After returning to the sedan chair and lowering the sedan curtain, his face immediately became gloomy.

Shi Miyuan summoned him just to kill Hua Yue in front of him?

What is it, a demonstration or a gesture of goodwill, or both?

That Huayue is a loyal minister, but he is not a loyal minister of Zhao Heju, and although Zhao Heju feels sympathetic to his death, he will not be a pity.

Of course, he won't say anything to intercede for him, if he says to intercede for him, he will put himself on the opposite side of Shi Miyuan, and now he can be said to be trembling like walking on thin ice, and he has to be cautious at all times, just afraid that he will lose all the games if he makes a mistake.

After returning to Yiwang's Mansion, someone had already come to report that Shi Xianggong had given a gift. Zhao Youju went back to his yard to look, but found that what Shi Miyuan sent turned out to be a big living person.

The six big living people, all of them are beautiful women, all of them are beautiful and pretty, and they are all holding their breath at the moment, obviously waiting for him, the heir of King Yi, to check it. Han Yu was pursing her lips, although she had never spoken, but the expression on her face was not happy in any case.

"This is ......," Zhao Youju frowned.

"A good gift from Shi Xianggong, when he sent it, he said that these six people are all equipped with unique skills, or good at the piano, or chess, or painting, or long dance." Han Yu saw that Zhao and Ju didn't seem to be very happy, so she replied.

"Since it was sent by Shi Xianggong, then let's stay." Zhao Youju said sullenly, his expression was flat, neither happy nor surprised.

Shi Miyuan once gave a similar gift to the prince Zhao Hong.

When Han Yu heard that she was going to accept these "gifts", she felt a little mustard in her heart, and suddenly heard Zhao Heju say: "Ayu, these people will be taken care of by you, don't be slack off on food and clothing on weekdays, find a yard to place them in one place, so as not to be lonely." ”

Han Yu bit her lip, but instead of being sad, she snickered. Although Zhao Youju said this cautiously, it seems that she wants to treat these "gifts" well, but she has followed Zhao Youju since she was a child, and she knows what he means, and the so-called "care" is to be restrained.

She was thoughtful, so she stayed by Zhao and Ju's side, and as soon as her thoughts turned, she also guessed that Zhao and Ju didn't trust these people, so she had to keep her distance from them.

It is best for her to take the lead in this matter, if Zhao Heju himself snubs these "gifts", it will definitely make the giver suspicious, but if it is done by the maid concubine in Zhao Heju's room, the giver will only think that this is a boudoir and laugh at it.

Therefore, Han Yu raised her face, snorted, and glanced at Zhao Heju again. Zhao Heju smiled slightly in his heart, Han Yu always looked gentle and gentle on weekdays, but now she is dressed as a vinegar lady, but she also looks like a three-point look.

"Come with me!" Han Yu made her voice sharper, and sure enough, four of the six beauties quietly glanced up at her.

After handing over these six "gifts" to Han Yu to send away, Zhao and Ju returned to their own room, and Long Twelve followed in, waiting for his orders. Zhao Youju shook his head and made a gesture that nothing happened, and Long Twelve went out.

After sending Zhao and Ju away, Shi Miyuan summoned the person who made Zhao Heju feel extremely uncomfortable, his face sank like water, and asked him, "How do you see your heir?" ”

"He seems to be a little afraid of villains." The man rattled twice, and in front of Shi Miyuan, he seemed to be a little presumptuous.

"Hmm......" Shi Miyuan frowned, it would be strange if Zhao Heju was not afraid of this person. The rest of the people in the house were with this man, and there was no one who was not afraid of him, for this man seemed to be a poisonous snake, and if it were not for himself, no one would be able to restrain him.

He remembered Zhao Heju's words before leaving to find a teacher, and Shi Miyuan was quite satisfied with Zhao Heju's performance so far, but if he further influenced him by finding a teacher for him, it would be more in line with Shi Miyuan's interests.

After thinking about it for a while, he thought of someone coming.

It's just that if you simply find this person, and don't say whether you will be attacked by the official, it is this person himself, in order to avoid suspicion, I am afraid that he will also refuse.

The person Shi Miyuan thought of was surnamed Zheng Mingqingzhi, the word Deyuan, and the word Uncle Wen, like Shi Miyuan, was also a person from Qingyuan Mansion. His family and the historian have been good for generations, Shi Miyuan's father Shi Hao once made a biography for Zheng Qingzhi's grandfather Zheng Qin, commemorating his unyielding deeds when the Jin people conquered Mingzhou (that is, Ningbo), so the historian still has the grace of fame and history for the Zheng family.

The two families have married many times, and their relationship is closer than that of Yu Tianxi, who lives in the Shi family.

His current status is also suitable, and he happens to be working in the Guozijian, and recommending him as the heir of King Yi will not arouse suspicion.

However, Shi Miyuan also knows that Zheng Qingzhi is different from Yu Tianxi, he is also an official eunuch, with a very high spirit, great ambition, and outstanding talent.

"Hmm...... You let out a rumor, and you just said that I want to do Buddhist things for my father. After a while, Shi Miyuan said to the man.

That person is Shi Miyuan Pavilion Qin Tianxi, who is rumored to be the descendant of Qin Hui, Shi Miyuan restored the "loyalty" title for Qin Hui, he is extremely grateful, so he will be loyal to Shi. After getting Shi Miyuan's orders, he really let out the rumors, only that Prime Minister Shi Gong would do Buddhist things for his deceased father in Jingci Temple.

Shi Miyuan has always believed in Buddhism and did Buddhist things for his deceased father, which not only does not cause suspicion, but also can summon relatives and friends to Jingci Temple. Zheng Qingzhi heard the news, and sure enough, he arrived at Jingci Temple on the day of the Buddha's event, and after some worship, Shi Miyuan left him behind and led him to Huiri Pavilion of Jingci Temple.

This Hui Sun Pavilion is the highest place in Jingci Temple, it was originally for those literati who visit and enjoy the ink objective sunrise, Shi Miyuan came to do Buddhist things, and those ordinary people who played naturally could not enter, so if a pavilion was placed, there were only two people of Shi Miyuan and Zheng Qing. The two of them have a good family relationship, and they are smiling and talking about Yan Yan, and when they climb to this high place, when the cold wind blows, they feel refreshed.

"Su Zizhan word cloud, the height is unbearable, that's it." Shi Miyuan patted the railing and sighed.

"Why did the prime minister say this, Su Zizhan has no ambition all his life, so he has such feelings, the prime minister is a very popular minister, the lord of the prosperous world, and there are a group of bureaucrats to help, why do you have such feelings?" was pulled upstairs by Shi Miyuan, Zheng Qingzhi knew that he had something important to discuss, and seeing that he didn't say it directly, but went around the bend, he smiled and said: "Could it be that Xianggong has pastoral thoughts?" ”

"Although there is a heart of retreat, it is not the time to retreat." The two of them are good at home, although Zheng Qingzhi's words are ridiculous, Shi Miyuan didn't care, he caressed the railing, looked far away, and saw the mountains like thousands of horses galloping, the rivers like fishing nets, the fields like chess grids, and the Qianmo like chess lines, and that person was like a chess piece, and the emotion originally pretended in his heart became true: "This is a great country!" ”

Zheng Qing's heart moved, Shi Miyuan was a very deep person, at this time, although it came from the heart, in Zheng Qingzhi's eyes, it also had ulterior motives. He silently shut up and didn't take over the topic, Shi Mi glanced at him from afar, and said in a low voice: "This is a great country, I don't know who will dominate the ups and downs after ten years!" ”

This is extremely arrogant, Zheng Qing is a rin, Shi Miyuan has been in power for more than ten years, the queen is connected to the important ministers, and the power is that the Son of Heaven also avoids three points, some time ago, the former Si Tongzheng of the palace who wanted to kill him Hua Yue, the Son of Heaven originally just wanted to be exiled, but he was killed by his rod for life, and the Son of Heaven could only acquiesce afterwards. When he said this at this time, could it be that he had two thoughts?

"Uncle Wen, the Son of Heaven is not in good health, and in the past few years, although he has been diligent, he doesn't know how long he can support it." Shi Miyuan stared at Zheng Qingzhi's eyes without blinking: "That prince is overwhelmed, if the Son of Heaven has a case, what can he do?" ”

Zheng Qingzhi looked around with some trepidation, they were standing on the top of the pavilion, looking around, there was no one anymore. This made Zheng Qingzhi feel a little relieved, and he said with some complaints: "Xianggong, what does this matter have to do with me, why do you want to talk to me?" ”

"King Yi's heir is Guicheng, born with a different appearance, virtuous and calm, and now he is trying to choose an official. Uncle Wen, would you like to teach me an heir in preparation for the future? When Shi Miyuan said this, he couldn't help but lower his voice.

"This!" Zheng Qingzhi took a step back, he really didn't want to get involved in such a thing, and it was really a big rebellion for people and ministers to discuss the abolition of the establishment in private!

Shi Miyuan smiled bitterly and pulled him over again, pointed to the place where he did Buddhist affairs, and let out a long sigh: "This is not my intention, but the policy of the ancestors." ”

Shi Miyuan's words, is moved by affection, Shi Miyuan's father, Shi Hao, once wrote to advise Emperor Gaozong, choose one of the two princes as the prince, and from the fame far and wide. Shi Hao was kind to the Zheng family, and when he heard that he moved out of his deceased father, Zheng Qingzhi was silent again, and said after a long time: "Xianggong, I am only a shallow learner, I really dare not take this matter seriously, if it is because of me, I miss the major event of Xianggong......"

Shi Miyuan smiled, if he was reluctant to do such a big thing, how could he make Zheng Qingzhi work hard, he pointed to himself and interrupted Zheng Qingzhi's words: "Uncle Wen, I was born in the second year of Longxing, Jun was born in the third year of Chunxi, and I am twelve years older than Jun." If great things are done, my seat now will be in your pocket in the future! ”

Zheng Qingzhi's eyes lit up when he heard this!

He is an official eunuch, and he is full of poetry and books, has few great ambitions, and often takes the world as his own responsibility. But he also knows that he is only waiting for the national prison now, and he doesn't know how many years he will have to endure before he can succeed in his life's ambition. Shi Miyuan promised him in phase, when Zilong's body is not safe today, it is rumored that it is only a matter of three or five years, and then he will be able to shake up the decadence of the Great Song Dynasty.

Over the years, he has seen Shi Miyuan manipulating authority, although the two are good families, but their political views are not completely consistent, and it is precisely for this reason that he is now only a mere national eunuch, otherwise it is just a matter of easy reach to go to Shi Miyuan's door and be the respect of a state capital.

This made him feel a little unfair, in his opinion, although Shi Miyuan said that he would be able to do official power, but he did not understand government affairs, if he was replaced, he would have a day to cheer up the Great Song Dynasty. But if he rises step by step, he doesn't know if he can enter the cardinal palace to participate in politics, how can he have the opportunity to be happy with his life's ambitions!

But now, the time is just around the corner.

Taking a deep breath to calm down the pounding heart, Zheng Qingzhi thought for a while, and then raised his head and said, "Xianggong, how about I think about this matter again?" ”

He said to think again, but he didn't insist on refusing, Shi Miyuan knew him very well, and knew that he had actually agreed in his heart, so he pointed to his eyes and said: "Uncle Wen's great material is far better than me, and in the coming day, Uncle Wen will have to contribute more to the great Song Dynasty." The heir of King Yi, although he is extraordinary, he must always have the guidance of the Master, Uncle Wen, this matter belongs to you! ”

Zheng Qingzhi was silent for a moment, and then bowed slightly, which can be regarded as a matter of urgency.

After knowing the things in his heart, Shi Miyuan only felt that his mind was open, thinking about the prince Zhao Hong, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"What I said today, from the ears of the king who entered my mouth, if a word is leaked, both the king and I will be wiped out." Before going downstairs, Shi Miyuan was still a little uneasy after all, and admonished: "Uncle Wen, be careful, be careful!" ”

"Please be relieved, I know the severity." Zheng Qingyi said with a smile.
