Chapter 102 Beijing Office

Early the next morning, Zhao Min convened everyone again to discuss, saying that he wanted to visit Zheng Da in Dongping and ask him to go out of the mountain. Everyone was curious about Zhao Min's sudden change www.biquge.info of attitude, didn't they hesitate to talk about it yesterday? Why did you change your mind overnight? However, it is also the meaning of the lord, and it is not good to be disobedient, so I have to agree.

It is said that now Zhao Min is already the king, and everyone will be the ministers under the account in the future, although the name has not yet been decided, but even if Zhao Min is called "lord" now, it should be.

The plan has been decided, and the task is assigned. Zhao Min himself took the pro-guard team and set off to Dongping Kingdom, and Wei Ying and Zhang Han naturally accompanied him as the chief and deputy captains of the pro-guard team, and Shao Qi didn't need to mention it if he wanted to go with him. Meng Hou, Xiahou Ying and others returned to Jimo on their own, first, to spread the news of Beihai to all parts of Beihai and inform Beihai of the change of the county to the country and the establishment of the four princes as kings, and second, to make preliminary preparations for the opening of the government, such as the pacification of the wealthy families, the collection of ritual materials, the conquest of talents from all over the world, etc., and the third is to clear the remnants of Lu Xu in the locality, especially in the drama county. According to Zhao Min's meaning, this matter should not be carried out with great fanfare, but instead Si Wencao is secretly in charge, and it is best to dig out all these remnants of the forces and catch them all. Perhaps it was because he had seen too much of the horrors of the assassins in history in his previous life, and he was somewhat paranoid, and he was always worried that the appearance of characters such as Xu Gongmen would endanger him. In fact, really, in ancient times, when all kinds of information exchange were inconvenient, how could the Assassins be so easy to succeed? If the assassin is really so rebellious, then there will not be only a few people in history such as Zhuzhu, Yaoli, and Jing Ke. In other words, even if Jing Ke is the most famous, doesn't it end in failure?

To get back to the point, Zhao Min was worried about the time limit of the task, so he didn't dare to delay the time, and the preparation was roughly arranged here, and he would set off for Dongping early tomorrow morning. Because he, the master of Beihai, will not return for the time being, he agreed with everyone that major issues such as the location of the capital and the construction of the structure will be established when he returns.

Everyone then dispersed, Zhao Min left Meng Hou to write a letter to Zheng Da, and he himself took advantage of this free time to deal with the things that should be done.

Zhao Min only took two guards by his side, stepped out of the guest room, did not leave the door of the post house, but turned around and headed to the east wing. He wants to visit the two envoys who came to announce the decree this time, this is etiquette, in a sense, it is also necessary for Zongzheng Temple to manage the children of the royal family, including Zhao Min, the prince, must have a good relationship, needless to say, the subordinate officials of Beihai State do not have to deal with the officials, but other local officials other than Beihai must be subject to the performance appraisal of the officials, if the relationship between Beihai and the officials is not handled well, in the future, other local officials will avoid Beihai when they see people coming from Beihai, how to deal with the officials of other counties?

After all, Zhao Min's identity is different from the past, and he is no longer the prince of light who has no real power and only has a "patrolling" halo on his body. All he thinks and thinks now must proceed from the overall interests of Beihai and be responsible for the hundreds of thousands of people in Beihai, so the welcome and delivery of these officialdoms is the homework that has to be done.

Zhao Min first visited Zhao Duo. The old man is not only his nominal elder, but also the Zongzheng who is in charge of the king's name, so he should thank him first. Since Zhao Min's identity was obvious, he naturally didn't need to report to the door, and after waiting for a while, an entourage led Zhao Min into the guest room.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the old man sitting in the main seat, his waist straight, and he was staring at Zhao Min fiercely. Zhao Min didn't dare to make a mistake, so he respectfully stepped forward to give the big gift to the juniors, and then asked the guards to present the ceremonial gold, and then knelt down under Zhao Duo's head in a proper manner.

In fact, chairs have long existed in this era, and they have entered the lives of most ordinary people. However, there are always some scholars who respect the ancient etiquette and think that it is rude to face each other with their lower legs during a meeting, so they still insist on kneeling on formal occasions. As a representative of the older generation, Zhao Duo also kneels on formal occasions.

To be honest, it is really uncomfortable to stand upright, bend your legs, cushion your hips with your heels, and press your calves against your cheekbones for a long time. Zhao Min thought to himself, this is not the Han Dynasty era in history, people wear skirts without underwear, even if they sit on a chair and shake vigorously, they don't have to worry about exposing their crotch, why do you have to make yourself so uncomfortable? But when you think about it, such words would never dare to be pronounced. Zhao Duo is known for being square and old-fashioned, and if he says these rude words in front of him, I'm afraid he will be kicked out by the old man with a broom!

I don't know if the old man has a hobby of staring at people, and after Zhao Min sat down, he didn't speak, just stared at Zhao Min so directly. Zhao Min was looked at all uncomfortable, but the elders did not train, the juniors did not speak, and they could not look at each other, in order to show respect, they had to hang their heads and sit with burning eyes.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Zhao Duo to finally speak slowly: "In the past, I was in Beijing, and I was not good at poetry and books, and I was idle all day long. Seeing you today, you are polite and respectful, but you have the heart to learn? ”

Hearing Zhao Duo speak, Zhao Min was relieved. As long as you talk, if you don't talk, you will always stare at people and think that you have some bad habits! At the moment, he was busy and replied: "Min'er knew that he was stubborn when he was young, and after he went out of Beijing, he saw the suffering of the people and had an epiphany. However, the guidance of an unknown teacher is all based on self-speculation, and I am afraid that there are many fallacies. "What do you mean by this, are you a good teacher? If it's good, I'll ask you to point out a few questions of learning, so that you don't have time to stare at people all the time, right?

I don't know if Zhao Duo didn't understand the meaning of Zhao Min's words, or if his own knowledge is limited, he just nodded and said: "The crown salute was not given, and it coincided with the hunting period." Originally, after returning to Beijing, the Son of Heaven invited a famous teacher for Ruyan, but now the Beijing division is in a difficult situation, the court is sluggish, and the patrol may be prolonged, and you know it in your heart. Not only that, but the rest of the princes will also leave Beijing one after another and go to various places to prosper the country. ”

Zhao Min was taken aback, what did he say? The other princes also have to be divided into various places? No wonder he wants to make himself a real king, and he worries about whether there is some conspiracy for so long. It turns out that not only himself, but also other princes who dare to love will be divided into various places to become kings! But why is this pinched?

When today's prince Zhao Ling is under the knee of the prince who is more than fourteen years old, there are still six people besides the crown prince Zhao Yu and himself. Among them, the fifth prince Zhao Yu died early, and now there are only five left. The second prince, Zhao Gao, the king of Bohai, was crowned king a few years earlier than Zhao Min, but no one mentioned the hunting at that time, so he never went anywhere in the capital. The third prince, Zhao Jiong, the king of Hejian, and the prince are brothers of the same mother, and they followed their uncle to mix military exploits in the northwest border army, and it is said that they planned to win a marquis of ten thousand households. There are three younger brothers left. said that it is a younger brother, but in fact, there is not much difference in age, the sixth prince Zhao Hao, the seventh prince Zhao Ang and the eighth prince Zhao Yu should all complete the crown ceremony within the year. It seems that this large group of brothers will be ordered to go out of Beijing. It is said that the hunting ceremony has been abandoned for a long time, and at this time, putting a bunch of princes out of Beijing is probably not just as simple as restoring the old routine, right?

Jingshi Luoyang controls Jinai and controls the four seas, and the news he knows is definitely not comparable to his own waste material prince in a remote area. From the information revealed in Zhao Duo's words, the prince is scattered and divided, and there must be a purpose. In Zhao Min's view, there are two possibilities, one is that great changes are about to occur in Beijing, and the Son of Heaven will scatter all his sons to avoid being taken away. Of course, this guess is not very reliable, with the strong defensive force of the Beijing Division, as well as the arch guard of the Southern Army, you said that if it was a sneak attack, it would be just a sneak attack, since you knew the news in advance, it would be served by someone, who would believe it? Looking at the world, who has the ability to do this?

Since the first guess is not reliable, the second is very likely. The purpose of scattering a group of princes is to deter and show their muscles. You see, I have made my six sons, including Zhao Min, the real power king, you have to be careful if you want to be careful, these six princes are sealed everywhere, and when you want to do something, be careful that the road behind is unstable!

But then again, if this speculation is true, then the premise is that a large part of the various roads under the Great Summer or the assassins, or the county guards, or the governors are already out of the control of the imperial court!

Thinking of this, Zhao Min couldn't help but be shocked, could it be that there was going to be a big chaos in this big summer! Zhao Min couldn't help but look up at Zhao Duo's face, but unfortunately the old man's face was indifferent, he couldn't see the joy, anger and sorrow, and he didn't know if the old man's city was too deep, or he didn't know the inside story at all. However, there are many possibilities to come to the former, after all, he is a veteran of the two dynasties, old and sophisticated, and has been in the court for many years.

While thinking about it, I only heard Zhao Duo continue: "I didn't give a word when I went forward to the crown ceremony, and the Son of Heaven regretted it. Because of the fear of patrolling for a long time, the lack of words is not to show respect for the elder, but before leaving, I gave the word and asked me to give it to you as a sign of encouragement. ”

Zhao Min hurriedly got up, bowed down and said, "Thank you for the elder!" ”

The purpose of the ancients to take the word is to show respect and make it easy to call, so Zhao Duo said, "There is no way to respect the elder without words." It stands to reason that the Son of Heaven should have given the word when he returned to the crown salute, but I don't know why the light salute did not give the word, and then he hurriedly drove him to Beihai. Besides, at that time, this body was not Zhao Min's current soul, so what happened to Zhao Min is unknown. Of course, Zhao Min doesn't care too much, the people who are commensurate with the words are usually people or elders who are more close, and in this place in Beihai, most of them are subordinates, and most of them can only be commensurate with their titles, and there are very few who can use the words on the table. But now that he has been given the word, of course, as a junior, he must accept it respectfully. In other words, as the prince of Zhao Min, he can be qualified to give him words, looking at the world, I am afraid that there is only one Son of Heaven!

I saw that Zhao Duo also got up to tidy up his clothes, and said solemnly and slowly: "The Son of Heaven Yunmin, Min Ye, Min is not as good as the ministers of the Summoning Prince." For the sake of the line, take the word world high can also. Now that you are the lord of a country, you should be restrained, keep festivals and friendships, and trust you with the weight of the Son of Heaven! ”

Shigao? Sounds so old-fashioned! Is there any meaning in it? Zhao Min has never studied the words of the ancients, and he doesn't know much about ancient texts, and he doesn't even know the source of what Zhao Duo said, "Min, Min is not as good as the ministers of the Zhaogong", who knows what he means? Of course, even if you don't understand, you can't show it, Zhao Min still pretended to sigh, and sat down again after thanking him.

Maybe the old man is old, and he has just worked his long body, and when he sits down again, his face is already showing fatigue. Although Zhao Min still wanted to inquire with him about the news in Beijing, but after thinking about it, he might not be able to find out anything with him, and he would definitely report to the Son of Heaven after returning to Beijing, and if he was too deliberate at that time, it might cause misunderstanding, so he left the room after a few words of thanks.

After coming out, I originally planned to visit that Zhong Dacai again, but because Zhao Min was now repeatedly echoing in his mind the deep meaning revealed in Zhao Duo's words just now, it was probably not appropriate to meet guests with this mental outlook, so he simply turned around and went back to his west room. Anyway, Meng Hou and Zhong Shilang can talk about each other, and it is the same to let Mr. Meng thank you on his behalf, after all, Zhong Kui is not like Zhao Duo, and he still carries the status of an elder on his back.

After returning to the room, Zhao Min asked Shao Qi to be found, and the first thing he said when he met was: "Quickly arrange people to enter Beijing and inquire about the news, especially the news that the counties and counties from all over the country sent to Beijing." No, just set up a separate division in Beijing, and just call it in Beijing! ”
