Seven or eight, give horses

Zhou Quan had something to say, Zhao Ji didn't understand cause and effect, and couldn't hear it, but Tong Guan was clear.

We must reconcile and cooperate and show sincerity!

Tong Guan is favored by Zhao Ji, and there are very few people who bargain with him like this, and in the entire Great Song Dynasty, there are only a few people who can make him feel at a loss.

He does feel that he has suffered a loss, in this world, there are always some people who feel that not taking advantage is a loss, and Tong Guan is like this.

But he could only endure it.

"The big picture is important, the big picture is important, the big picture is important!" After reciting this important sentence three times in his heart, Tong Guan smiled on his face and applauded: "Indeed, this football play, secretly combined with the art of war, if it can be implemented, it will be of great benefit!" ”

"Haha, Tong Guan said so, it must be fine!" Zhao Ji said with a smile, originally he wanted to comment on football again, but at this moment, he saw several people also coming here.

One of the little girls ran up when she saw him from afar: "Daddy, Daddy! ”

Zhou Quan glanced at it, this little girl was a little familiar, and then he remembered that he had seen it when he entered Yanfu Palace last time. When he offered checkers, he also said that he wanted to add makeup to this little girl.

"This is my daughter's fortune." Zhao Ji saw the little girl coming, his face was full of joy, and then he hugged her.

The little girl who was only five or six years old, Zhou Quan was not interested in looking more, just glanced at it, but Zhao Fujin's dark eyes turned around everyone, and then stopped at Zhou Quan: "It's a checkers boy...... Daddy, did the checkers boy give another gift today? ”

She said it coquettishly, which made everyone laugh, and Zhou Quan could only laugh: "The minister didn't bring a gift today......

Zhao Fujin stared at him, flattened his mouth and said, "Then you accompany me to play checkers, which can be regarded as a gift with me!" ”

She saw that there were all adults around her, only Zhou Quan, whose face was more tender, relatively close to her age, so she pestered Zhou Quan.

In her small heart, there is not much difference between men and women, Zhao Ji likes her frankness the most, on the contrary, Zhao Jinluo, another daughter who is close to her age, because she is the daughter of Empress Zheng, is more strictly disciplined, and there is rarely such a time when innocence is revealed.

"Come with me, come with me!"

Zhao Fujin climbed down from his father's arms, and then beckoned Zhou Quan, and was about to go to another palace. Everyone looked at Zhou Quan, wondering how he would deal with it, Zhou Quan smiled bitterly: "The minister is a foreign minister, you can't go!" ”

"Why can't you go when you can go?" Xiao Fujin raised his head and asked.

"Well, Shanren is an inner supervisor, so naturally he can go to ......"

"Then you should also be an internal prisoner!" Xiao Fujin didn't wait for Zhou Quan to finish speaking.

Zhou Quan covered his face with his hands: I knew it would be like this!

There was laughter around him, and even Zhao Ji couldn't help laughing.

Although almost all laughing people can't help but have a feeling of contempt in their hearts: sure enough, like a good clown, Xingjin is a child.

Tong Guan was the same, but when he thought of Zhou Quan's methods last night, that little bit of disdain suddenly disappeared.

On the contrary, when he looked at Zhou Quan, he smiled even more happily, and even his eyes were faintly full of appreciation and praise.

Zhou Quan occasionally looked at him, and when he saw him like this, he was secretly impressed in his heart: he is worthy of being a powerful eunuch, and he even acts so really!

Zhao Fujin dragged Zhou Quan to play chess with her, but Zhao Ji personally went out to coax Zhao Fujin away. This unreliable emperor, when he looked at Zhou Quan again, there was a little more strangeness in his eyes.

"Fujin has a lively temperament, little Zhou Qing, don't think she's rude." Zhao Ji had a faint thought in his heart, but he didn't say it at this time.

Zhou Quan has been very pleased with him so far, and Zhou Quan's ability to make money can be regarded as a small test, so Zhao Ji also wants to pull him down.

As for Zhou Quan's humble status, it is not on Zhao Ji's heart. After all, Zhou Quan's family is also a family of forbidden soldiers, but the official position has not been promoted, and whether to promote the official position of the Zhou family is not a matter of his Zhao Ji's words.

After another gossip, Zhao Fujin followed beside him, just looking at Zhou Quan with dark eyes. Zhao Ji saw that she looked interesting, so he smiled and said, "Fujin, why are you staring at the checkers boy?" ”

"Because the checkers boy is the most beautiful!" Fujin replied loudly.

Everyone laughed again, Zhou Quan is indeed handsome, inheriting his mother's strengths, coupled with fair skin and clear eyes, among a group of middle-aged and elderly men with beards, he is indeed handsome and romantic.

The little girl of five or six years old said this, just as the master said, there is no evil in thinking. Therefore, even Zhao Ji, who is Lao Tzu, is not to blame, not to mention others, only Zhou Quan, was made helpless, so he had to take Zhao Fujin to catch ants in the grass of the Imperial Garden.

Zhao Ji watched the football and occasionally got up to do activities to cheer for the players on the field. The cool autumn breeze brought the sound of the conversation between Zhou Quan and Zhao Fujin, what Zhao Fujin said was childish and cute, and Zhou Quan responded a few words, mostly to teach Zhao Fujin the truth of benevolence and generosity.

"Well, although Xiao Zhouqing doesn't read much, he knows the truth very well......" Zhao Ji left such an impression in his heart, and his eyes couldn't help but light up.

Zhao Ji also mixed a royal banquet here, and Zhou Quan didn't leave until the afternoon. Liang Shicheng was still accompanying the official family, but Tong Guan followed: "Zhou Xiaolang, are you willing to walk with me?" ”

Although Tong Guan was a eunuch, he rode a horse, and Zhou Quan saw that the horse he rode was very heroic and strong, so he couldn't help but take a few more looks. Seeing this, Tong Guan actually got off the horse himself and handed the reins to Zhou Quan.

"This horse's name is Zilu, which I obtained in the battle with the Western Thief, and it is said that it has the blood of Dawan Liangju...... Your Zhou family has been a fierce general for generations, and you are also good at riding, so you will go to the north of the country, and you will not be able to do it without a good horse, so I will give you this horse! ”

At this time, the price of the Great Song Dynasty horse is more expensive, a first-class military horse with a height of four feet six inches will cost fifty or sixty times, and if it is a good horse, it will cost one hundred to one hundred and fifty times, like Tong Guan's purple horse, which is four feet nine inches high, strong and docile, and has excellent bloodlines, and it is really sold, I am afraid that thousands of times will not be able to buy!

This is a gesture of goodwill, and it is also an apology, as a child, to do this, if Zhou Quan slaps his face directly, it will be too stupid.

Therefore, Zhou Quan's face was full of joy: "Thank you Taiwei, the people have nothing to repay, the latest style of bicycle, three days later, send someone to Taiwei's mansion for Taiwei to play!" ”

Of course, the price of horses is higher than the price of bicycles, but Zhou Quan's return gift, also known as the exchange of courtesies, shows that he accepts Tong Guan's apology. Tong Guan was slightly happy, and said: "Zhou Xiaolang is really a young hero, no wonder the official family is so favored, and he entrusts Xiaolang with a heavy ......responsibility."

Zhou Quan laughed, but did not answer the topic.

Tong Guan knew what Zhou Quan meant, and the two could reconcile, but how Zhou Quan persuaded Zhao Ji would not be revealed.

With his own entourage and a horse, Tong Guan and Zhou Quan walked side by side, talking and laughing, both in Beijing and about the situation in Liao, it seemed that they were talking extremely speculatively.

This scene was naturally noticed by people with good intentions, and it turned into news that spread to all the prefectures in Beijing.

Zhou Quan and Tong Guan were in parallel for a long time before they said goodbye and left. There was no one at home, so he didn't go home, but went straight to the kiln.

Zhou Fu had already received the news, and when he saw him coming, he asked, "Did you push this messenger?" ”

Zhou Quan shook his head: "Where can I push it, but I have mixed up with an official position." ”

"What official position?"

"The records of the Rongchang Bureau are involved in the affairs of Xiongzhou Rongcheng." Zhou Quan said.

This is a special office for him, but it is actually a temporary assignment. Although under Zhou Quan's best persuasion, all parties in the court have reached a consensus on building a city, but no one knows how to build this city, and some people are waiting for this city to make mistakes, so as to use it as an excuse to attack their political enemies. Therefore, Zhou Quan only got this empty official title, and if he really wants to have real power, he has to wait for the return of this mission.

"Can I resign?" Zhou Fu asked.

"What do you say?" Zhou Quan responded.

Zhou Fu sighed, naturally no. Although Zhou Quan didn't let him interfere, where could he be completely at ease, so he also sent people to keep an eye on Zhou Quan, knowing all his actions this day and night.

made such a big momentum and alarmed so many forces, if he retreated at this time, not to mention anything else, Liang Shicheng, who made a strong effort in it, would first have to tear Zhou Quan apart.

"Dad, you just have to rest assured, with this official position, this time I went north, Tong Guan not only had to be difficult for me, but also had to protect me with all his might, even if I went to Liaoguo to do something excessive, Tong Guan pinched his nose and carried the black pot for me!" Zhou Quan laughed.

Seeing his smiling appearance, Zhou Fu suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Tong Guan.

He knows how difficult his son is, strictly speaking, how many things he has done in Beijing in just half a year!

Zhou Quan was busy for a day and a night, and he was already very tired at this time, so he handed over the purple horse to Zhou Fu to take care of, and he found a place to sleep with his clothes.

This sleep lasted until the night, and he was still hungry before he woke up.

"Daddy, do you have anything to eat?" He was not polite either, and shouted out of the house.

"You're blessed, you woke up before I lifted the chopsticks!" Zhou Quan's voice came from outside the house: "It's just right, stewed soft sheep, and swirling pork skin, you can eat it yourself!" ”

When Zhou Quan heard the names of these two dishes, he immediately felt that his saliva flowed out. He originally thought that during the Great Song Dynasty, there were no overseas crops in later generations, and there was a lack of rich enough seasonings, and even the oil for stir-frying vegetables was scarce, so the cooking should be lackluster. But in the past six months, he realized that the Chinese nation is worthy of being the nation that attaches the most importance to food, and the people regard food as the sky, and they have cooked countless varieties of delicacies with a few materials in their hands.

Among them, soft sheep and roasted pork skin are his favorites without meat.

However, his father doesn't have this kind of craftsmanship, so I don't know which restaurant he made the bag, right?

Out of the inner room, I saw a fat man, who was burning pork skin and meat on fire, this fat man was vaguely familiar, but for a while, he couldn't think of his name.

"Don't meet your Uncle Wu yet!" Zhou Fu shouted.

Zhou Quan's heart moved, Zhou Fu seemed to attach great importance to this Uncle Wu, could it be that he had anything outstanding?
