In the main hall of the Great Xiangguo Temple, with the arrival of Zhao Gu, everyone's eyes were on him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhao Gu noticed that a high-ranking official sitting in the center was pointing at Zhao Gu slightly, saying something to the young prince next to him.

This high-ranking official is about forty or fifty years old, his hair is meticulously combed, and the purple official uniform on his body is ironed extremely flat, which shows that this is a very serious and demanding person who takes life seriously.

His face is very thin, giving people the feeling of a teacher, only when his eyes flash with wisdom from time to time, Zhao Gu can keenly see the temperament of a person who has been in a high position for a long time from his eyes.

Similar to this kind of temperament, Zhao Gu has seen it in Zhao Pu, but Zhao Pu will give people an ordinary feeling more often, and the luxurious temperament on this person still leaks, only from this point of view, he is slightly inferior to Zhao Pulai.

As the saying goes, the big sound is loud, the elephant is invisible, and that's the truth.

But no matter what, this person still gave Zhao Gu a terrifying feeling, if Zhao Pu was compared to a sleeping tiger, then this person was a hideous cheetah, no matter who one of them, was enough to dominate the life and death of most prey.

And the young prince, among the four princes, has a very prominent position, even the seat is higher than the other princes, he has a round complexion, fair complexion, and a handsome appearance, if he dresses up a little and scatters his hair, I am afraid that as long as he is put in the pile of women, it will be difficult to distinguish his gender for a while.

As for the others, Zhao Gu has also observed them one by one, these people have their own looks and temperaments, but they all exude a graceful and luxurious atmosphere.

Some of them looked at Zhao Gu thoughtfully, as if they were measuring something, while others withdrew their eyes after seeing it, with an attitude that they didn't care about themselves.

The ten sons of Luoyang had already arrived at the main hall, and at this time they were standing side by side beside the thin and high-ranking official, with a restrained and serious expression, and after seeing Zhao Gu come in, the ten people just glanced up at him, and then lowered their heads again.

Zhao Gu immediately thought of a lot of their appearance, could this thin and high-ranking official be Lu Mengzheng?

Speaking of Lu Mengzheng, although Zhao Gu has been at odds with him for a long time, and Zhao Gu has also pitted him a few times, Zhao Gu has never seen him, and this time is the first time the two have met.

All these thoughts were only in the middle of the electric rotation, just on the way to the middle of the main hall, and he had already figured out the joints in it.

Facing the eyes of the high-ranking officials suspected to be Lu Mengzheng and the others, Zhao Gu calmly walked to the center of the hall, bowed his head slightly, and hugged his fists and said: "Zhao Gu, the grass people, I have seen all the princes and adults. ”

The handsome prince in the center smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao has suppressed bandits twice, and he has worked hard, and the Privy Council has already intended to allow you to hold an official position, so don't use the word grass people in the future." ”

Li Fu on the side also interjected at this time: "What the prince said is that Mr. Zhao once offered disaster relief strategies in the yamen of Kaifeng Mansion, and then invented greenhouse planting techniques to benefit hundreds of millions of people in my Song Dynasty. ”

The handsome prince seemed to value Li Fu very much, and smiled kindly at him: "Lord Li has heard of what Lord Li said about this king, and a talent like Mr. Zhao should naturally enter the court as soon as possible, as for who recommended him to the court, it is really harmless, what does Lord Li think?" ”

Li Fu smiled and said 'yes', then sat down and didn't speak, and the handsome prince set his eyes on Zhao Gu again.

"Mr. Zhao, this king heard Lord Lu say that you want to hold a cultural fight with the ten sons of Luoyang who is sitting down, and he is curious, so he ordered the ring to move here, Mr. Zhao will not blame this king in his heart, right?"

Hearing what Prince Junlang said, Zhao Gu was a little unsure of his intentions.

It is said that since he and Lu Mengzheng are talking and laughing, and the relationship between the two is very good, then he should hope that Zhao Gu will lose this literary battle.

But he respected Li Fu very much, and took the initiative to strictly understand Zhao Gu's achievements in suppressing bandits, and proposed that the Privy Council should give Zhao Gu an official position, isn't this showing favor to Zhao Gu?

This person is not in his right mind?

Zhao Gu thought about it, and then quickly shook his head, he didn't think that the person who could stand out among Zhao Guangyi's more than a dozen princes would be a simple-minded person, he must have another purpose in doing so.

Could it be that he wanted Zhao Gu to take the initiative to admit defeat before Wendou?

This idea suddenly popped up in his heart, and the more Zhao Gu thought about it, the more reasonable he felt.

This person has a good relationship with Lu Mengzheng, and naturally hopes that Lu Mengzheng's protégé wins this competition, but since it is a competition, it is naturally difficult to ensure that everything is safe, what if Lu Mengzheng's protégé loses?

Because he was worried about this, he pointed out that Zhao Gu would enter the court as an official, and hoped that Zhao Gu would think more about it in the future and not be too bad with Lu Meng.

In this way, Lu Mengzheng's protégé has won a good reputation, and he can naturally get Lu Mengzheng's favor.

You must know that at this time, Zhao Guangyi has not yet established a prince, which means that all princes have the possibility of becoming princes, and Lu Mengzheng, as the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, naturally has a great say in the matter of establishing a prince, and this person is taking the opportunity to win over Lu Mengzheng!

As for why he showed kindness to Zhao Gu in public, it may also be related to the emperor's mental technique, he felt that Zhao Gu might make a difference in the future, so he gave Zhao Gu a worthless but very friendly smile, anyway, he didn't lose anything.

And if you go deeper, Zhao Gu helped Kaifeng Mansion come up with the idea of disaster relief, and also came up with a way to plant greenhouses, which is virtually equivalent to helping Yin Li Fu of Kaifeng Mansion a big favor, will Li Fu be grateful to Zhao Gu from the bottom of his heart?

If this is the case, isn't this person showing kindness to Zhao Gu also currying favor with Li Fu?

Although Li Fu is only a second-grade official, not as high as Lu Mengzheng's lofty status, his identity is still not to be underestimated, and this person must also have the intention of wooing.

As soon as the handsome prince spoke, the eyes of at least a dozen people present swept over him and Zhao Gu, and Zhao Gu must not be the only one who guessed his thoughts.

Among them, especially Lu Mengzheng and Li Fu's eyes stayed on the two of them for the longest time.

In the end, the eyes of these dozen people fell on Zhao Gu, wanting to see how he decided.

At this moment, if Zhao Gu admits defeat according to his words, everyone will naturally be happy, Lu Mengzheng and his protégés have won the reputation of winning without a fight, and the handsome prince has won the favor of Lu Mengzheng, only Zhao Gu can only eat this dumb loss.

And if he still insists on fighting and saves the face of the handsome prince, it is conceivable that his position in the court will be very embarrassing in the future.

After all, the handsome prince is a person who is very likely to become an emperor!
