Chapter 9: Let me give you some spice
Song Huizong Zhao Ji watched his three-month-old son "happy" to taste the wine, and he didn't kick his feet anymore, he seemed unsatisfied, and wanted to continue to let Zhao Gou drink a glass. The ministers hurriedly dissuaded this idea. If not, Zhao Gou doesn't know how much he will be poured by Zhao Ji before he can stop.
Zhao Gou came up, dizzy, shaking his little head, grinning stupidly; Song Huizong Zhao Ji saw it in his eyes, and his heart was even more lovely. It's a pity that Zhao Gou can't speak, otherwise he will definitely break open and scold Zhao Ji. Since ancient times, I have never heard of a three-month-old child drinking alcohol, but his father poured it himself.
"How could I be so unlucky to have such an unscrupulous father, and my three-month-old child started drinking. Does he really want his children to be like him, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even drink and have fun? ”
"No wonder the Great Song Dynasty is weak, such an emperor, I am afraid that it is rare in ancient and modern times, or there is no one before or after it! The father is like this, no wonder the son is like this, the capital of the Great Song Dynasty Bianliang was breached, the second emperor was captured and left, so that he died in a foreign land, all this is not a doomed fact, it is just man-made, and has nothing to do with the will of heaven. ”
"If providence is so, it is difficult for manpower to change; Now it seems that it is not the will of God, but a man-made disaster. As long as it is solved step by step, it may not be impossible to prevent the stigma from happening. It's just that this matter has to be considered in the long run. Since I have done it all over again, and let me lead the Great Song Dynasty to prosperity, I must do it both in public and private, otherwise I will be ashamed of them. ”
The three-month-old Zhao Gou was dizzy, wanting to stay awake, and then seeing Song Huizong Zhao Ji let him drink after being drunk, it felt incredible. With such a father, I'm afraid Zhao Ji is the first one. Zhao Gou looked at Zhao Ji's happy face again, showing a long-lost smile, he knew that his father was happy, but he didn't know what to be happy about, even if he was the prince, there were several brothers above him, and he would not lose his temper.
Even if the wine of the Great Song Dynasty is not as good as the spirits of later generations, for the three-month-old Zhao Gou, it is tantamount to a poison that pierces the intestines. After a while, Zhao Gou was confused, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he could only smile stupidly and bitterly. In Zhao Ji's eyes, Zhao Gou's wry smile was a smile of joy, he felt that what he had just guessed was good, Zhao Gou was kicking his feet indiscriminately before, and pulling his beard, he wanted to taste the contents of his cup, wanted to taste it, thinking of this, Song Huizong couldn't help but be proud.
"Your Majesty, let the slave and maid hold the Duke of Shu, you are a golden body, and you have to drink with all the adults, it is better to hold the maidservant, so as not to disturb the emperor's Yaxing!"
Yang Jian, the attendant beside Zhao Ji of Song Huizong, saw Zhao Gou in his infancy and smiled stupidly, and saw Zhao Ji's dragon face Dayue, knowing Zhao Ji's love for Zhao Gou. Therefore, Yang Jian wanted to seize the opportunity to pat himself on the back, not only to be appreciated by Zhao Ji, but also to express his loyalty.
Sure enough, Song Huizong Zhao Ji turned his head with a smile and praised: "Aiqing has this heart, I am very pleased!" ”
Yang Jian bowed down and made a gesture to pick up Zhao Gou, but was stopped by Zhao Ji, raised his head in surprise, looked at Song Huizong Zhao Ji suspiciously, and thought: "Does the emperor mean something else?" Or maybe the miscellaneous guessed the emperor's mind wrongly, there should be nothing wrong! ……”
Song Huizong Zhao Ji favored Yang Jian, the inner servant next to him, not only let him serve in the court as a eunuch, but also called for wind and rain with another inner servant in the court, and even the prime minister Cai Jing and others were polite to the two of them. After all, Yang Jian is Zhao Ji's chamberlain, and he follows him all day long, and he doesn't guess Zhao Ji's love and thoughts, at least he is eight or nine.
For some things, Zhao Ji hadn't spoken yet, Yang Jian had followed him for many years, and he had already figured out his thoughts, so he did it directly. If he had been in the palace for many years, followed Song Huizong's side, seen a lot, and had not guessed his thoughts, then he would not have been favored by Zhao Ji, let alone become an official in the court.
Song Huizong Zhao Ji did not accept Yang Jian for the first time, but instead stopped him, which made him a little puzzled. The ministers below also looked sideways at everything, Cai Jing and the others frowned, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, like a breeze blowing, setting off a little wave, and there was no movement when they looked carefully.
"My prince, how can I let you hold it. If there is any accident, I don't want to see it, so I just let the maid carry it down. You still have to drink with me and Aiqing, if you hold Lao Jiu, you can't drink with me. Wouldn't that be too boring. ”
Zhao Ji said with a smile, and the surprised Yang Jian was excited after hearing his words, and he couldn't hide the emotion in his heart. Yang Jian also has some power in the court, but he is a eunuch, and sometimes he is still very inferior. Even if others are respectful to him, Yang Jian knows some things very well in his heart, and now Zhao Ji's words seem to treat him as a normal person, and he can be on an equal footing with the ministers of the court, and he is very happy.
"Come, sit down with you and drink with me!" Song Huizong smiled and motioned for Yang Jian to sit down, Yang Jian slowly sat next to Cai Jing and the others, he didn't dare to sit next to Zhao Ji, that would be a big crime, even if he was bold, he didn't dare to do so, after Yang Jian sat down, Zhao Ji continued: "Today, without the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, you are not a courtier, and I am not a king, and I am not a king, and I will have fun with everyone!" ”
Next, Zhao Ji of Song Huizong drank and had fun with the ministers of the court, and some ministers who drank lightly had already made an appointment with the Duke of Zhou. Song Huizong saw that someone had fallen, laughed loudly, and ordered people to carry those fallen ministers back to the house one after another, ordering them not to go to court tomorrow. Some ministers are holding on to their spirits and are reluctant to step down.
"The curtain moves slightly, the cold weather, the dragon pond is icy; The apricot blossom smile and spit fragrant; Again, spring will be half; The song and dance are pressed from the beginning. Waiting for the feast, remembering last year, facing the east wind, I promised to live up to the wish of the warbler. Song Huizong held the wine glass, recalled the past, and couldn't help but say loudly.
Everyone heard that Song Huizong Zhao Ji made, they all praised one after another, in fact, Zhao Ji's literary style is indeed the best, everyone has a ghost in their hearts, and they are in awe of Song Huizong Zhao Ji on the surface, but in fact, they are listened to by the victory, and the people are bullied, and they are powerful. Now, Zhao Ji is in a happy mood, and his words are praised by everyone.
Cai Jing held his wine glass and praised him heartily: "Your Majesty, what you did just now is really a masterpiece, and no one in the world can match the saint!" Throughout history, there is no one who can compare with the emperor, and the emperor's prestige should be praised for thousands of years, so that future generations can see the saint's literary brilliance, which is really an honor for the common people. ”
When Zhao Ji of Song Huizong heard that Cai Jing compared him with the Ming Monarch and Holy Lord in history, he couldn't help but feel a little proud, his face was a little unhappy, and he said reproachfully: "Aiqing forgot what I said before, there are no monarchs and ministers at this time!" ”
"What the prime minister said is extremely true, we all think so, the emperor is very popular, and he is indeed a monarch of life." Yang Jian echoed casually, he saw that Zhao Ji's tone was a little unhappy, but the expression on his face showed that he was very proud in his heart and took advantage of the situation.
The ministers saw that the emperor's inner servants were also the big celebrities around Zhao Ji, as well as the prime minister who called for wind and rain in the court, and both of them praised Song Huizong's literary brilliance, and they also echoed one after another: "The ministers think the same!" ”
Song Huizong Zhao Ji was smug, a smile appeared on his face, the wine glass in his hand was also put down, and everyone hurriedly bowed and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, my emperor Shengming!" ”
"Aiqing is flat!" Zhao Ji said with a smile, glanced at Cai Jing appreciatively, and nodded with a smile.
Song Huizong and Zhao Ji looked at other things very indifferently, only paying special attention to poetry and painting. Therefore, Yang Jian's previous patting did not hit his buttocks, but only wiped the edges; Cai Jing is also a generation of calligraphers, his calligraphy is very good, even Song Huizong is very praised, and Cai Jing's compliment, Zhao Ji feels a trace of pride in his heart.
Cai Jing took this opportunity and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a reluctant request, I wonder if the Holy Lord can agree?" ”
Zhao Ji was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "What does Aiqing want, let's hear it!" ”
"Back to the emperor, the minister wants to hug the Duke of Shu, I don't know if the saint can agree!" Cai Jing said respectfully, "If there is no Duke of Shu here, the demeanor of the saint will not be able to appreciate it again, so the minister wants to hug the Duke of Shu and also want to be happy!" ”
Song Huizong laughed and said, "It turns out that it's just this matter, so what's not to do!" ”
Yang Jian wanted to hug Zhao Gou, but Zhao Ji never agreed, making his sycophants empty; Cai Jing's words were reasonable, and he praised Zhao Ji's literary brilliance, which made him happy, so when he asked again, Zhao Ji of Song Huizong complied with Cai Jing's request and directly handed over Zhao Gou to Cai Jing.
Cai Jing hugged Zhao Gou excitedly, he also drank a lot of wine, his hands and feet were a little trembling, and his mind was a little unbright, worried that if he was not careful, he would steal chicken and rice. Therefore, Cai Jing hugged Zhao Gou very carefully, and kept teasing him, and his smiling appearance was reflected in Zhao Gou's field of vision.
Zhao Gou's dizzy head suddenly came to his senses, recalling this person's appearance, seeing his gray beard, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, a pair of sunken Danfeng eyes, bulging eye bags, bulging forehead, and a neatly dressed court dress and official hat, like an elegant person, exclaimed: "Cai ...... Cai Jing? ”
Zhao Gou had seen Cai Jing's portrait with his own eyes, and remembered the conversation he heard in a daze, and he was even more sure that the person holding him was Cai Jing, and he was also one of the notorious traitors of the Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, Zhao Gou sneered and thought, "You brought this on yourself, you can't complain about me!" ”
"Didi, Didi! ……”
Cai Jing just picked up Zhao Gou and prepared to put it on his neck. Suddenly, he felt some warmth in his arms, and a wet feeling, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled. At this time, Zhao Gou was relaxed, clapping his little hands happily, laughing in a milky voice, and thinking triumphantly: "Add some ingredients to you, I don't know if you like this special gift!" Hey! ……”
At this time, everyone was stunned, they witnessed everything that had just happened, they couldn't help but cry and laugh, and some funny, but they didn't dare to laugh out loud, they looked at each other, forced a smile, and thought in unison: "When the prime minister of the dynasty was actually 'drenched in the rain', this kid is worthy of the emperor's favorite Nine Emperors, it is really worthy of the name!" ”
