Chapter 028: Demon Boy OR Prodigy
"Emperor, if the rumors are indeed true, you might as well give him more support."
Song Shenzong didn't expect that his mother and wife, who had always opposed his change of law, actually advocated that the two princes should be closer to Cai Dao.
"However, the emperor, when you give him a reward, don't be a scholar. This son is disabled and unfit to be an official, and the reward is too low to be worthy of his merits, and if the reward is high, the ministers of the court will oppose it. Therefore, the Renyong lieutenant who was directly given to the nine products is worthy of the name. After Empress Dowager Gao finished speaking, she closed her eyes and waited for Song Shenzong to make a decision.
It stands to reason that giving a son of a civil servant as a military attache is somewhat humiliating.
In the final analysis, it is Cai Dao's own problem, he is a Luo Guo after all, and if he wants to enter the officialdom on the right path, even if he is as good as Zijian, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Gao Taotao's treatment.
However, this is not a shadow supplement, but a reward.
Song Shenzong thought for a while, and then said, "Queen Mother, Erchen also thinks so. However, this kid refused to be rewarded before, because his eldest brother and second brother still have no merit, and those two children heard that they were good-looking, so they could give it to General Shilang. β
When Empress Xiang heard this, she felt that something was wrong, so she glanced at the Empress Dowager Gao, only to see her chin slightly bowed, and then stood up, looking ready to return to the palace, she quickly stood up and took a few steps forward to support the Empress Dowager.
"Emperor, take care of your body! The mourning family went back to the palace, and your body has not healed, so you don't need to send it! Empress Dowager Gao pressed Song Shenzong's shoulder with her hand and said in a warm voice.
That being said, Song Shenzong still sent Empress Dowager Gao and Empress Xiang to the door of Yanfu Palace in the spirit of a strong beater.
When Empress Dowager Gao was leaving, she seemed to be muttering: "If only the people who went to Fujian could come back soon." β
Standing at the door of the main hall, looking at the sky outside, Song Shenzong suddenly remembered what Cai Dao said when he left, although he couldn't understand it, but now at this time after all, it is the harsh winter season, even if it snows heavily, it is normal, as long as you are prepared.
"Shi Deyi, didn't that kid say that from tomorrow, there will be heavy snow in Bianliang City? Immediately send someone to arrange and send more carbon salaries to each palace. There are also some from the families of the old ministers. β
"No! The slave and maid will send someone to do it. "I didn't report the whereabouts of the queen just now, although Song Shenzong didn't say it explicitly, but Shi Deyi knew in his heart that the official family was extremely dissatisfied with his performance.
It seems that in the recent period, he has not only done all the things ordered by the official family better, but also shrunk his tail and behaved.
β¦β¦
Nothing was said all night.
Cai Dao still had that nightmare.
As he predicted, early in the morning, it snowed heavily in the sky, and the entire Bianliang City was covered with thick snow.
However, Cai Dao's reputation in Bianliang City did not get better, but got worse and worse.
Because, someone else spread a nursery rhyme in Bianliang City that was extremely unfavorable to Cai Dao.
"Yesterday was full of white rainbows,
It snowed heavily today.
The demon boy entered Beijing for only one day,
Disasters plagued the harvest year. β
This nursery rhyme is expanding to the entire Bianliang City at a very fast speed, if it weren't for the heavy snow closing the city, presumably, this nursery rhyme would have been known to women and children.
The news was naturally discovered by the Imperial City Division, and the palace had not yet been unlocked, so Shi Deyi knew about it.
This time, he didn't dare to delay at all, and presented all the detailed information of the matter sorted out by the Imperial City Division to Song Shenzong.
"Demon boy! Or a child prodigy! Song Shenzong scoffed at this little trick.
Now, with the support behind Empress Dowager Gao, no matter who says anything, Song Shenzong will not pay attention to it, and it depends on when the imperial city priests who were sent to Cai Dao's hometown in Ba Min will come back, and what the specific situation is, in order to finally make a conclusion.
"Shi Deyi, send someone immediately, and you must find out this person or force who writes and spreads nursery rhymes at will." After Song Shenzong finished ordering this matter, he kept the information aside.
"No!" Shi Deyi sighed in his heart, in this extraordinary period, these people actually dare to do this, they really don't know whether they are alive or dead.
β¦β¦
At this time, Cai Dao didn't know anything.
After being woken up by a nightmare, for some reason, Cai Dao, who had always had insomnia at this moment, actually fell asleep again.
On the second night, Cai Dao slept unusually sweetly.
But the two little eunuchs who had been monitoring him were suffering, although the two of them took turns to be on duty at night, they were still young after all, and they couldn't stay up late. I held on until dawn, and I saw that the children were awake, but this boy was still asleep.
What a big heart!
Doesn't this prince know that the emperor is waiting for him to reply?
They tried to wake the boy, but the children did not listen to them and stopped them.
It wasn't until Shi Deyi sent someone to urge him that Xiao Da got into the tent and woke up Cai Dao.
The eunuch who came this time was actually that Liang Shicheng again.
When they were in Cai's house, Cai Bucket and a few of them trained them very competently, and they did everything in an orderly manner.
Therefore, there was no need to instruct, a full set of toiletries, a change of clothes, food for the morning, etc., were all placed in Cai Dao's small tent.
On the side, Liang Shicheng waited more and more anxiously, urging Cai Dao to move faster several times.
However, Cai Dao didn't take it seriously at all, he still acted slowly and logically according to the rhythm of his life.
After washing, getting dressed, and eating the fragrant and nutritious breakfast that Xiao Confused had prepared for him a long time ago.
By the time Liang Shicheng led Cai Dao to appear in Yanfu Palace, most of the time had already passed.
Song Shenzong was lying on the dragon couch, as if he was closing his eyes to recuperate.
Respected monks and Taoist priests also sat on either side of the main hall, and several of them were still arguing there.
was late twice in a row, and it was all done by Liang Shicheng, and Shi De was so angry that his teeth itched.
He just wanted to step forward to ask for the guilt, but Song Shenzong sat up, waved the sleeves of his robe to let him retreat, and asked kindly, "Child, did you see your master last night?" β
"Your Majesty, the grass people saw my master last night. It's just that the grass people really don't know what Your Majesty means, what do you want to ask? Cai Dao's mouth was unforgiving, but his behavior was still impeccable, and he stepped forward and honestly kowtowed to Song Shenzong three times.
"Flat, give a seat! Don't be nervous, kid. Just roughly explain how your master explained to you, just say it once, don't be too specific. Song Shenzong saw that Cai Dao was young, so he asked Shi Deyi to move a small pier for Cai Dao.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!" Cai Dao sang a fat song and sat down unceremoniously. After the last fateful mission, when he saw Song Shenzong again, he didn't know what it was to be nervous!
Next, Cai Dao used the skill of clever tongue to sort out the information in Du Niang, and said it according to the words he had made up in advance.
Since this time it was an abnormal celestial phenomenon caused by Cai Keng, Cai Dao did not say the law of Taibai Jingtian.
There are only three points:
1. The Lord is in trouble and wars.
2. The true meaning of Taibai Jingtian.
I don't know when Taibai Jingtian was interpreted as a courtier, and the sun was the monarch. The courtiers swept over the monarch, which means that they are in a noisy manner. This claim is pure nonsense.
If this is how Taibai Jingtian explains, then how can the solar and lunar eclipses be explained. The probability of these two astronomical phenomena is much higher than that of Taibai Jingtian.
If we interpret it in the same way, the results of the emergence of these two astronomical phenomena are much more serious than those of Taibai Jingtian.
3. Of course, when there is a vision in heaven, the Lord of Man still has to be in awe.
According to the different angles at which the Taibai star cuts into the sun, there are as many as five different calamities.
1. Holy Passion
2. The difficulty of sword soldiers
3. The year of serious illness
4. The Year of the Great Flood
5. The world is declining
Since the master was not traveling around at that time, he did not know the specific angle of the Taibai Star penetrating into the solar moment, so he did not know what kind of catastrophe was caused by this abnormal celestial phenomenon.
This time, it was useless for Cai Dao to take the initiative to ask for it, and as soon as he finished speaking, Liang Shicheng took the initiative to offer a cup of hot tea.
"It's a clichΓ©!"
Cai Dao drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and glanced at the one who spoke.
is a big monk, thin and tall, if you change your dress, you look like the fat head in the deer ding! Anyway, if you don't know his name, let's call him Fat Toutuo!
"Master, you are quite old, everyone knows that. However, I am only six years old, boy, and I am not old. Cai Dao pretended not to understand his words and deliberately teased.
"Humph! Ignorant children. Being teased by a six-year-old doll, Fattou Tuo was extremely annoyed.
"I'm a child, so I'm naturally very ignorant. But, Master, you must have been very clever when you were a child. β
