Zhao Guangyi thought for a while and said, "You don't have to monitor him too much in the future, just keep an eye on him secretly, and don't be discovered by him, I don't want him to know that I don't trust him." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"The minister knows, but didn't you say ...... before?" Xiao Qi was puzzled.

Zhao Guangyi said with a smile: "Previously, I was really worried that he would be a young man, so he was empty-eyed, but after eating a meal in his mansion today, I felt that he was not such a person. Have you ever seen a person who has a guest in the house, but still lets the woman eat at the table? What's more, I am still an emperor, it can be seen that he really cares about his women, which shows that this is a person who values the love of children more, and often such people do not have great ambitions. And his study is full of wild histories, texts, poems and songs, it can be seen that he is not an ambitious person, although he is very smart, but he will not be a rebel, if you are too spy on him, if he finds out, how should I explain it to him? ”

Xiao Qi nodded, indicating that he understood, and Zhao Guangyi said, "Go ahead, protect him well." ”

"Yes."

――――――――――

The weather in the third lunar month is refreshing and breezy, blowing away the sleepiness of the morning and bringing the laziness of the afternoon.

At noon in March, it is the most comfortable time, the sun is hanging high, slightly dazzling, but it does not look hot, it is very warm and warm on people's bodies.

Stepping on the noon eye, a large number of official sedan chairs poured out of the Zhuozhou County Marquis' Mansion, and all kinds of officials sat in the official sedan chairs, ranging from one product to nine products.

Of course, officials from Jiupin are not qualified to sit in a sedan chair, but this still does not prevent them from coming to the Zhuozhou County Marquis Mansion to offer congratulatory gifts.

Today is Zhao Gu in order to celebrate his ascension to the position of the founding of Zhuozhou County, and the special luncheon, the officials came early, and those who are qualified to enter the mansion stride in, and those who are not qualified to enter leave gifts and greetings to the porter, stating the fact that they have been there.

It's not that the door of the Houfu Mansion of Zhuozhou County is too high, and the petty officials can't get in, but because everyone really has nothing to do with each other, why they come here Zhao Gu knows it, it's nothing more than asking for money from officials, Zhao Gu is a person who doesn't like trouble, so he is naturally too lazy to entertain this kind of person, so he simply let the porter block them back.

In fact, this is also the practice of all high-ranking officials, otherwise if they get involved with these petty officials, once they cause trouble outside under the guise of high-ranking officials, they will even implicate high-ranking officials.

Officialdom is like a battlefield, this sentence is not a joke, if you want to do an official position for a long time, it is very necessary to be cautious and careful.

Near noon, the officials who should have come came, and Zhao Gu announced the opening of the banquet.

After the banquet began, Zhao Gu took a glass of wine, toasted a glass on each table, and when he came back after a turn, half an hour had passed.

During this period, many officials were close to him, and this type of person was between three and five grades, and of course there were some third-grade officials who hugged their thighs.

For this kind of people, Zhao Gu responded tactfully one by one, saying that he was just an idle marquis, with no real power, and he would naturally help if he could help, and don't blame him if he can't help.

As for how to help, only Zhao Gu knows.

These officials are also human spirits, so they naturally knew that it was impossible to make friends with Zhao Gu so easily, so they all pretended not to understand and expressed their gratitude to Zhao Gu.

Back at the main table, the atmosphere was not so enthusiastic, and the officials sitting here were all officials from the third rank and above, and no one could ask for anyone, but it seemed a little quiet.

Everyone toasted to each other and said something that was not nutritious, and they had a lot of hearts, for fear that others would trap their words.

Zhao Gu watched it funny from the sidelines, although the deception above this officialdom is not as fierce as that in the shopping mall, it is not dangerous.

Lu Mengzheng has always kept a straight face since he came in, or he has always been a straight face, and only occasionally when others toast him, he will show a little kindness and gently touch the glass with others.

At the end of the banquet, many people were already getting drunk, or pretending to be drunk, Lu Mengzheng suddenly seemed to think of something, and said: "I don't know who the emperor is going to send to the Liao State this time?" ”

Zhao Gu pricked up his ears and stared, only to hear Zhang Qixian say: "This time, my Great Song Dynasty defeated the Liao State and recaptured the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and it is time to use this envoy to disgrace the Liao State. ”

Another high-ranking official, Zhao Changyan, said: "Having said that, the Liao State lost the sixteen states of Yanyun, and the court was already shocked, and if it provoked again at this time, I am afraid that it will cause a war between the two countries." ”

Lu Guogong and the others were silent, as if they hadn't heard everyone's discussion at all, and they were still eating and drinking, looking like they didn't care about themselves.

Lu Mengzheng glanced at Zhao Gu and said: "The old man thinks that what Lord Zhao said is very true, this time the envoy to my Great Song Dynasty should focus on stability, as long as I can stabilize the Liao State, my Great Song Dynasty has greenhouse technology, and after a few years, it will definitely be a doubling of national strength, and then the Liao State will definitely not dare to invade my territory again. ”

Zhao Gu only felt that his eyes lit up, this Lu Mengzheng is worthy of being called a generation of famous people, his ability is indeed not comparable to ordinary people, if he really says so, the Liao State really can't last for decades.

It's a pity that things don't always happen as people expect, who can guarantee that after the Liao State was killed by the Great Song Dynasty with 500,000 soldiers and horses, it will be settled for a few years? What if they are enthusiastic and have to break the net with Da Song?

Besides, the greenhouse technology is not too difficult, and it is good that Liao is located in the north, but if they learn this technology, will the Great Song Dynasty still have the advantage?

What's more, although Zhao Guangyi is not a talented emperor, he is not a faint monarch after all, and he can be regarded as a small achievement, who can guarantee that after his death, his successor will have his ability, and can continue to stabilize the Liao State for decades, waiting for them to destroy the country?

All in all, Lu Mengzheng's assumption is too much to take for granted.

But it is undeniable that at this time, it is not yet the time when the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State have a great war to destroy the country, and it is true that the Liao State should not be provoked excessively, but should focus on stability.

As for how to stabilize the Liao State, it is obvious that Lu Mengzheng's plan will not work.

With Lu Mengzheng and several other executives taking the lead, the ministers at the table gradually began to discuss, and they were all expressing their opinions.
