That night, Zhao Gou stayed at Amber Mountain Villa for the night. The next day, the morning star hung in the sky, and there were some twinkling stars around, Zhao Gou got up, began the morning exercise, after playing a complete set of boxing, and played a set of weapons, after he did everything, everyone in the villa got up, looked at Zhao Gou who was sweating profusely in surprise, and was shocked: "When did he get up?" ”

All the eleven people lowered their heads, and they knew that Zhao Gou's martial arts were so high, it was not a coincidence, all of them were obtained through their own efforts, and they had paid several times more effort from others. Even if they weren't injured, they wouldn't get up too early, they were all regular times, they were older than Zhao Gou, and they couldn't help but admire him in their hearts.

Seeing that everyone was up, Zhao Gou nodded slightly, and then practiced on his own. Everyone was injured, and they didn't dare to exercise vigorously, but after a little exercise, there was a pain all over their bodies, and they bared their teeth. Zhao Gou felt guilty when he saw everyone looking like this, these people were all injured by him, if they were bandits, it didn't matter, but these people were also meritorious people to the Great Song Dynasty.

After everyone practiced for a while, Zhao seemed to get up. Because the old problems on his body have been alleviated a lot, he slept until he woke up naturally. I've never slept so comfortably since I was sick, and I woke up refreshed. Raising his head, seeing that everyone was exercising in the morning, he looked at Zhao Gou, and saw that he was soaked, he couldn't help but nod appreciatively, looked at the hour, and said, "Lao Jiu, it's almost time!" Prepare a little, and you will enter the palace later. ”

Zhao Xianglai also felt that the time was almost up, and after refreshing, he put on clean clothes, ate casually, and immediately set off for the palace.

Zhao Qi and the others watched him leave, and when he returned to the village, everyone looked at Zhao Yi, only to see him smile and say, "Do you think Lao Jiu is the owner of the 'Qilin Order'?" ”

Everyone was convinced, and said in unison: "Naturally!" ”

"In that case, what do you think of his martial arts?" Zhao seemed to ask again, everyone smiled bitterly, Zhao Gou's martial arts were too much better than everyone else, Zhao seemed to see that everyone was silent, he knew that they agreed with Zhao Gou, and then said: "Now, the owner of this village has issued the latest order!" ”

Everyone hurriedly sat upright and listened attentively, not daring to be disrespectful in the slightest.

"From today on, you eleven people will follow Lao Jiu's side, only obey his orders, even if it is to go up the sword mountain and down the sea of fire, you must go with him, by his side, you will get more things."

Zhao Ru's words were shocking, everyone looked at Zhao Ru in puzzlement, and Wang Wu asked, "Master Zhuang, why do you let us eleven follow him?" ”

"Lao Jiu has a mansion in the capital, which I personally selected and belongs to his property. It is impossible to have no one in the huge courtyard, and the eleven of you are his householders, and everything is done according to his orders. Zhao Ru continued, "From now on, you are no longer from the villa, and this is also a gift from me, the uncle, to him, presumably the imperial brother will not be stingy." If you follow Lao Jiu, you will inevitably be promoted again, and perhaps you will linger, and after you have seen Lao Jiu's ability, you will understand what I said today. ”

As a result, everyone entered Zhao Gou's newly opened "Guangping County King" mansion regardless of whether they wanted to or not, and became Zhao Gou's family and the guardian of the mansion. They didn't understand why Zhao seemed to do this, and it was only after many years that they realized that Zhao seemed to have good intentions.

Zhao seems to have been in court for the first time, and something unexpected happened.

"Qi Sheng, the Privy Council envoy Lord Zhao, disregarding the court, ignoring the emperor, only wearing ordinary clothes, never wearing official clothes, this is a big disrespect, and I hope that the emperor will punish the crime!"

Zhao Gou saw that someone said that he had never worn court clothes, and he was right, he was wearing civilian clothes, not even the clothes of the county king, which couldn't help but make him speechless and powerless to refute. At a glance, all of them were wearing court clothes and official boots, he was the only one like this, even Zhao Heng, who had no official position, was also wearing royal clothes, and he didn't dare to be disrespectful.

Yesterday, Song Huizong already knew that Zhao Gou had cured Zhao Xiang, and he also convinced those people, and even the misunderstanding was eliminated, and he couldn't help but feel a little relieved. However, he also neglected and forgot to order a set of court clothes and official boots for him. After all, the ministers of the DPRK and China are all adults, and their height is better than Zhao Gou, if Zhao Gou is allowed to wear court clothes and official boots, it will look nondescript, and because he was worried about Zhao Yi and Zhao Gou last night, he also forgot.

Song Huizong glanced at the official, nodded approvingly, and said, "Lord Chen is reasonable!" ......" That Lord Chen couldn't help but feel a little proud when he saw that Song Huizong also agreed with his own point of view, and then Song Huizong's words made him smile abruptly. "Lao Jiu, why don't you wear court clothes or official clothes to enter the palace?"

Zhao Gou bowed down and replied: "Back to my father, my sons have no court clothes or official uniforms. Just because he was imprisoned in the palace when he was a child, how could he get official uniforms, nor did he participate in any ceremonies, where did official uniforms come from? ”

Song Huizong nodded and said: "Since this is the case, then I decree that from now on, the king of Guangping County of the previous dynasty does not need to pass on court clothes and official boots, and will re-order court clothes and official boots after the crowning ceremony." ”

"Thank you for your grace!" Zhao Gou immediately bowed and kowtowed.

Seeing that Zhao Gou was safe and sound, the man felt angry in his heart, and glanced at Zhao Gou deeply. At the same time, Zhao Gou also looked at the man. Although for unknown reasons, this person wants to oppose himself. However, Zhao Gou is not a good type, and if someone takes the initiative to find fault, then there is no need to be merciful.

Then, Song Huizong asked the ministers of the court and China if they had any important things to do. Everyone is still the same, there is no way to play. So, the court dispersed early. Zhao Gou also took his leave and walked in the direction of the Privy Council. After a while, Zhao Gou came to the door of the Privy Council, there were no guards in front of the door, and he thought, "Why is there no one?" ”

Today, Zhao Gou took office and took over as the Privy Councillor, and officials should come to greet him. Since there were no officials to greet him, he entered it on his own. When he walked in, there was no one in the house, which surprised him a little. So, after Zhao Gou inspected it on his own, after another half an hour, there was still no one.

Two full hours have passed since Zhao Gou arrived at the Privy Council, and people came in one after another, and they all raised their heads arrogantly, not taking Zhao Gou in their eyes at all. Zhao Gou didn't pay attention to them, his eyes were attracted by one of them, that person was the person in the court who impeached him for misconduct, and secretly thought: "It turns out that you are from the Privy Council!" …… So, starting with you, I'll see who among you are from other powers. ”

The person who impeached Zhao Gou in the early dynasty was the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, he was a person of Gao Yu, and the big backer behind him was Gao Yu, as if he did not take Zhao Gou as a young man in his eyes. If it weren't for Zhao Gou's killing, then the Privy Council envoy would definitely be in his pocket, and he had some resentment against Zhao Gou in his heart.

He knew that Zhao Gou took office today, and he was deliberately two hours late, Zhao Gou was the supreme official, but he was not in the Privy Council, so he was the supreme prefect. In order to give Zhao Gou a horse, he ordered everyone to be two hours late, and everyone didn't dare to refute, so they only obeyed the order, and they all knew very well that Zhao Gou was just a yellow-haired boy, so they didn't have to worry about him, and they didn't take him seriously.

There are 12 rooms in the Privy Council, including the north room, the Hexi room, the branch room, the Beijing room, the teaching room, the Guangxi room, the military registration room, the militia room, the officials' room, the miscellaneous room, the horse room, and the small officials' room, a total of 38 people; There are three deputy directors of each room, five directors, two directors of Shouque, thirteen people in the history of the order, and fifteen people in the history of the book. Yuan You not only created two rooms for horses and small officials, but also increased the history of 14 people, 19 people in the history of the book, and 18 people in the name of the house. Daguan increased the number of deputy ministers to five people, created three people to keep the history of the Que Shuling, and increased the number of people by twenty-eight, adding up to a total of one hundred and sixty-three.

The man raised his head arrogantly, saw Zhao Gou stand up, walked in front of him, and sneered in his heart: "Look at you, you will dare to show off your power in front of this official in the future, and you will still listen to my orders here in the future!" A look of shock appeared on his face, and then he complimented: "Your Majesty, why are you sitting here, this is not the place for you to sit?" ”

"Oh, I'm not sitting here, so where am I supposed to be sitting?" Zhao Gou looked groveling and asked in a low voice.

The man saw that Zhao Gou was a little humble, and his heart was even more proud, he felt that he was too correct to obey Gao Yu's orders, and he was arrogant, even if Zhao Gou was the king of the county, the prince of the current emperor, he had to obey his orders here, and that pride made his face overflow with pride, but he didn't see the weird smile on Zhao Gou's face when he lowered his head, and the cold color in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, of course, sitting in the main hall, how can you ......?" the man looked respectful, and the smug look on his face betrayed his true thoughts. He was about to continue speaking, but he was stunned by Zhao Gou's next move, and his face was full of incredulity, as if this matter could not happen to him.

Zhao Gou saw that the man looked like a villain, he was angry, grabbed the man's collar fiercely, forced him to lower his head, and then slapped him twice, and the man was stunned. After Zhao Gou finished the beating, he felt that it was not enjoyable, and he slapped him in the face hard, the palm prints that were clearly visible, the corners of the man's mouth overflowed with blood, and the others also stood stupidly in place, motionless. At this time, Zhao Gou's face was gloomy, his face was full of disgust, and he sneered: "Let you put on a score in front of this official, what this official hates the most is scum like you, if you dare to pretend in front of me again, say a word, and this official will send you to see the king of Hades." ”
