The second day of Zhao Gu's return to Kaifeng.
After the fusion of yin and yang, he was in a comfortable mood and full of energy, and when he woke up, it was almost time for lunch.
Looking at Liu Qiaoqiao and Shangguan Sisi, who were still sleeping beside him, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Gu's mouth, and he pecked lightly on the second daughter's face, Zhao Gu got up and got dressed.
Opening the door, a ray of sunlight came in, Zhao Gu subconsciously closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, a beautiful figure appeared in his eyes.
"Xiaocheng, it's early." Zhao Gu greeted.
Su Xiaocheng didn't have the heart to take care of him, stepped forward and took his hand and walked out, Zhao Gu couldn't help but wonder: "What's the matter?" Do you want to smack with me too? Isn't it okay to prostitute yourself during the day? ”
Although he said this, Zhao Gu's body was very honest, and he took a big step forward and stuck to Su Xiaocheng's back.
Su Xiaocheng's body trembled suddenly, his pretty face immediately turned red, and he turned his head and glanced at Zhao Gu: "It was the emperor who summoned you, and the eunuchs who announced the decree have been waiting outside for more than two hours." ”
Zhao Gu was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that after he returned to Kaifeng, he hadn't reported to Zhao Guangyi.
At the moment, Zhao Gu had no choice but to retreat stupidly, it is estimated that Su Xiaocheng has been waiting outside the door since the eunuch came over, and he himself is good, sleeping with two big beauties in his arms until now.
Su Xiaocheng glanced at him again: "Don't go out quickly, it's the first time I've seen someone like you who doesn't take the holy decree in his eyes." ”
Zhao Gu smiled, and followed Su Xiaocheng to the lobby of the front yard, and when the two eunuchs saw him come out, they immediately trotted over to greet him.
"I've seen Zhuozhou Guhou." The two eunuchs said in unison.
Zhao Gu smiled: "I'm sorry for the two of you, I just went home yesterday and drank a few more glasses of wine, so I got up late this morning, so I made the two of you wait for a long time." ”
One of the two eunuchs immediately smiled and said: "Zhuozhou Gu is polite, the two of us are in accordance with the emperor's order, and we specially invite you to the palace for luncheon, it is still early, and so on." ”
"The emperor wants to invite me to dinner?" Zhao Gu asked.
"Yes, Hou Ye go back and clean up, the emperor has ordered, let Hou Ye wear court clothes." The eunuch said.
Zhao Gu nodded, and asked the housekeeper to entertain the two eunuchs, while he himself went back to the backyard and took out the court clothes that had not been worn twice since he was sent, and Su Xiaocheng followed him into the attic to help him get dressed.
As a marquis, Zhao Gu's court clothes are naturally different from ordinary officials, even if he is a product of the dynasty, he is also different from him, although the title and the official position can be regarded as the same, but the title has a slight advantage over the official position, and the clothes are naturally different.
If you want to ask what is the essential difference between a title and an official position, this should be from two aspects.
First of all, people who have a title but no official position, don't have to get up early every day to go to the court, don't have to deal with the affairs of the court, if the emperor can't remember you for the rest of his life, then congratulations, you can eat and wait for death on the title for the rest of your life, even if you don't do anything, the court will not be missing your money.
And then it's the term of office, although those with official positions and those with titles will be reprimanded and punished after making mistakes, but if everyone doesn't make mistakes, most of the people with official positions will only be rewarded with some gold and silver fields after they get old, and then they will have nothing to do with the imperial court.
This is not the case for those who have a knighthood, which will stay with you for the rest of your life until you die, and will not be lost due to physical condition or other factors.
Although these two advantages are not great in the eyes of aspirants, in the end, advantages are advantages, especially lazy people like Zhao Gu, who simply love such advantages.
The difference between the court clothes of people with titles and ordinary official clothes is that although everyone's court clothes are curved necks and big sleeves, the ornaments on the general official uniforms are very simple, or there are no ornaments at all, while the court clothes of people with titles are embroidered with ornaments of birds and beasts, which looks more luxurious.
Su Xiaocheng touched Zhao Gu's court clothes with his hand, a proud smile appeared on his face, and said, "It is estimated that after today, this set of clothes will not be worn." ”
Zhao Gu scratched her nose with his hand: "It is said that after the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are recovered, it is necessary for me to be promoted to the rank of knight, but it is not easy to say that this kind of thing is not until the end." ”
Su Xiaocheng nodded, helped him put on his court clothes, put on his head, fastened his belt, looked at it for a moment, and then smiled with satisfaction.
Zhao Gu also smiled, said goodbye to Su Xiaocheng, and went straight to the lobby of the front yard.
The two eunuchs praised Zhao Gu when they saw that he was dressed newly, and hurriedly invited Zhao Gu into the palace, but Zhao Gu didn't want to delay, so he went straight to the palace with the two eunuchs and came to the Zichen Palace.
Zhao Guangyi and a group of ministers were still holding a court meeting, and the Zichen Hall was in full swing, and there were constant arguments and laughter, and it sounded like a harmonious atmosphere.
The two little eunuchs who led Zhao Gu came straight into the side door of Zichen Palace, and said in Wang Jien's ear: "Zhuozhou Gu is here." ”
Wang Jien waved off the two eunuchs, and then told Zhao Guangyi about it, Zhao Guangyi immediately laughed and said, "Our Zhuozhou Valley is up, let him come in." ”
A trace of jealousy flashed in Wang Jien's eyes, but he didn't dare to show it, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Xuanzhuozhou Gu is waiting to go to the palace." ”
Zhao Gu heard the voice outside the door, walked in calmly, and after saluting Zhao Guangyi, he stood aside and remained silent.
Zhao Guangyi looked at him with interest: "Zhao Gu, raise your head." ”
Zhao Gu raised his head according to his words, Zhao Guangyi looked at him for a while, and then said: "Yes, the water chestnut on his face has risen, and he finally looks like a big man, it seems that this is the trip to the Northern Expedition, and you have benefited a lot!" ”
Zhao Gu hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "Everything is full of Emperor Longen." ”
Zhao Guangyi laughed again: "Zhao Gu, Zhao Gu, do you know how happy I was when I heard the news of the recovery of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun?" It's all your fault! ”
Hearing this seemingly murderous compliment, Zhao Gu had an alarm bell ringing in his heart, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "The emperor said that the sixteen states can be recovered, it is the result of the emperor's strategy for many years, and the ministers and Lu Guogong, Han Gong, Huyan Lao General, and Yang Yanzhao General just happened to complete the task arranged by the emperor, and the minister did not dare to take credit." ”
With this sentence, he directly praised Zhao Guangyi to the sky, and at the same time pulled Cao Bin and Yang Yanzhao into his camp.
Everyone knows that the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty hates the most meritorious heroes, especially the military generals who have made meritorious contributions, which makes them even more jealous, but Zhao Gu's words directly took out his own merits, and completely pushed them on Zhao Guangyi, and at the same time found four teammates for himself, I really can't admire it.
Looking at Zhao Guangyi again, after hearing this, a flower directly appeared on his face.
