Chapter 52: Gan Zhaoji (2)
After more than 20 years, Zhao Xin finally met Gan Zhaoji again. It's just that today's Gan Zhaoji is still very young, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, neat and tidy body, clean robes, and looks very energetic.
He prostrate on the ground, under the leadership of Zhang Weiji, faced Zhao Xin, who was sitting on the bed, bowed three times and bowed nine times, and made a great salute to the monarch and ministers.
After the ceremony, Zhao Xin smiled and said: "Zhang Duzhi, Gan Chongban, two Aiqing, please get up and talk first......
Zhang Weiji then pulled Gan Zhaoji to stand up, and the two of them bowed their bodies, stood sideways in front of Zhao Xin's bed, and bowed their heads to listen to Zhao Xin's instructions and instructions.
"In the Spring Fang, everything is cumbersome, there are many people and miscellaneous eyes, these days, Liu Aiqing has worked hard day and night, and she is up and down for the lonely guards...... It can really be described as a lonely Secretary Liu! ”
Liu Yongnian, who had been standing behind the screen, hurriedly bowed: "The minister is frightened, and he doesn't dare to be the praise of the country!" I dare not compare with the sages! ”
But in my heart, it is sweeter than drinking honey!
There is no way, the ministers and close servants of the Imperial City of the Great Song Dynasty are all vying to be honored by the king as 'a certain secretary'.
Back then, the eunuch Lan Jizong and his own officials all became the envoys of the government and became the ministers of the highest official rank in the Great Song Dynasty.
But every time he entered the palace to meet the Empress Dowager Zhang Xianming Su, he was overjoyed when he heard the Empress Dowager Liu call him 'Secretary Lan', and he was depressed and decadent when he heard the Empress Dowager Liu call him 'Lan Xuanzheng', and he couldn't let go for several days, thinking that he had done something wrong.
Because of the secretary's name, it was originally used by the Empress Dowager Zhaoxian Du to call Zhao Pu, the king of Han.
Originally, Zhao Pu was an official of the secretary, serving Taizu around him, handling official affairs for Taizu and serving his family.
Therefore, even later, when Taizu ascended the throne as the emperor and the Han Wangguan worshiped the ministers, every time the Empress Dowager Zhaoxian Du saw Zhao Pu, she was still called 'Secretary Zhao', and even said in front of Taizu: "My son has never changed things, Secretary Zhao is dedicated" so that he does not see anything at all, and regards Zhao Pu as his own family.
As a result, the ministers, close attendants and honorable officials of the Great Song Dynasty vied with each other to be honored for being an official or an important member of the royal family as 'a certain secretary'.
Many eunuchs, even if they do, know that this is the case.
It's a pity that the Zhao officials know that grace should not be taken lightly.
Over the ages, the number of ministers and servants who have been able to get them as 'a certain secretary' has always been no more than five fingers.
When Zhenzong was alive, only a few people such as Lan Jizong, Xia Shouyun, and Liu Mei were called like this by him.
Now, Liu Yongnian has received such an honor, of course, he is so happy that he almost forgot what his surname is.
Zhao Xin looked at Gan Zhaoji and ordered: "Now, when Gan Qing arrives, he should share Liu Qing's worries, and in the palm of the Spring Fang, the palace people and ministers, the things up and down are ......."
"And Liu Qing is in charge of the Spring Fang, entering and exiting inspections, and registering ......"
"The two Aiqing should remind each other and cooperate with each other to straighten out the inside and outside for Lonely, prohibit hidden dangers, and make Lone not have the trouble of sleeping!"
This is to divide Liu Yongnian's power, and turn his original control of internal and external affairs, and everything into only external and internal control, only in charge of access, security checks, and exchanges, and no longer let Liu Yongnian manage both inside and outside.
This trick is similar to that of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin's release of military power with a cup of wine.
However, Liu Yongnian and Gan Zhaoji didn't think there was anything wrong.
It even feels reasonable.
Because, this is the reality of the Great Song Dynasty.
No matter where, whenever, no one can say a word!
No one would dare to monopolize a certain official office or a certain function alone.
For all those who try or dare to do so will surely die a good death!
So, the two of them bowed to the leader in unison and ordered: "The minister respectfully serves Deyin!" ”
Zhao Xin then got up from the bed and smiled at Zhang Weiji, who had been on the side: "Today, there is Lao Zhang who knows it......"
Ben immediately turned his head to Gan Zhaoji and ordered: "Gan Qing, and choose a few pieces of silk silk from the inner library of Chunfang for Lonely, and reward them to everyone......
"It's cold in early spring, so I know how cold it is, so I can take it back and make a few clothes for the children to wear!"
When Zhang Weiji heard this, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed to thank him: "The country is virtuous, and the ministers are grateful!" ”
He is known to the province of the inner servant, so he is already qualified to adopt an adopted son.
So, in the past two years, he has successively adopted a few little yellow men who have just entered the palace, as heirs, as if they were their own cultivation.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, eunuchs could choose to hand over their merits and rewards to their adopted sons to inherit, just like the inheritance and sacrifice of normal families.
This is also grace.
Therefore, the eunuchs of the Northern Song Dynasty did not have the feminine spirit of the eunuchs of the Ming and Qing dynasties in later generations.
On the contrary, there are many people who are more masculine than real men!
Expand the territory, raise sentences for officials, and even maintain festivals to appease the displaced people and resettle the people.
These people are no worse than ordinary scholars and doctors.
Just like this Zhang Duzhi's adopted son, there is a fierce general - Zhang Ruoshui.
In Zhao Xin's previous life, this great eunuch, first courted Nong Zhigao, and then conquered Western Xia, all served as a horse to undertake official affairs, and was appointed as the jurisdiction of Huanqing Road three times.
This gentleman fights, likes to take the lead the most, and is famous for his courage and every shot.
Even a heavy weapon like the Divine Arm Bow, Zhang Ruoshui can operate and pull it apart alone!
Send away Gan Zhaoji and let him send Zhang Weiji.
Zhao Xin beckoned to Liu Yongnian, called him to his side, and asked in a low voice, "In the imperial city, is there anything new?" ”
As soon as Liu Yongnian heard it, he knew what this prince wanted to ask?
So, he leaned into Zhao Xin's ear and whispered: "Guogong, Weichen heard that yesterday, the wife of the Jiangning Jiedu envoy, Youxian County, entered the palace to pay homage to the queen and all the talented people......
"Oh......" The corners of Zhao Xin's mouth turned up slightly: "Youxian County Jun is really leisurely and elegant......"
"How many times has the county monarch entered the palace since this month?"
"Returning to the Duke of Guo, it is said that Zhang Niangniang likes the handkerchief woven by the county monarch very much, so she often lets the county monarch enter the palace......" Liu Yong reported in a young voice: "This month, the minister heard that it seems that Zhang Cairen summoned it three or four times......"
Zhao Xin laughed, and Liu Yongnian's scalp was numb and his heart was pounding.
Who doesn't know that the talented person of Ninghua Hall has to order his clan brothers and uncles to go to Daxiangguo Temple every year to make incense, and every time it is hundreds of thousands of sesame oil money.
When the host of Daxiangguo Temple saw the Zhang family, his mouth smiled crookedly.
Burning so much incense, is Zhang Niangniang just praying for blessings?
It's just that there are some things that really can't be forced.
That lady begged for a few years, but after all, she could only give birth to a princess, and Miao Cairen of Baoqing Hall didn't do anything, so she gave birth to an imperial heir for the official family.
Now this imperial heir has the appearance of a young saint king, and has won the admiration and admiration of the government and the public.
So, don't say that Zhang Niangniang can't give birth to an heir.
Even if she gives birth to an imperial heir immediately, I'm afraid she won't be able to compete with this one.
Officials, courtiers, and the people of the world will not agree.
Didn't you see that now the ministers of the two governments are in full swing, working overtime to promote the matter of giving the name of the meritorious hero to this national prince?
That is, the ministers of the two governments are anxious to determine the status of kings and ministers, so that there is no dispute about this matter at all.
Therefore, it is completely understandable that the lady is worried about this.
So, the mother suddenly fell in love with embroidery, and it was reasonable.
People, you have to find something to do for yourself and pass the time!
Queen Cao can farm and raise silkworms in the pepper house, what happened to Zhang Cairen's embroidery and weaving?
