Chapter 7: The Queen Has Been Found

【Hello everyone! The public chapter update has been changed to the afternoon or evening, thank you for your attention! 】

Zhanzhao escaped, shouting lucky, for fear of being dragged to perform another water float, I don't know that water is the pain of my life!

"Commander, urgent!" A soldier handed a small, sealed bamboo tube to Zhanzhao.

Zhan Zhao wiped the mark, then carefully opened the bamboo tube, a small note appeared in his hand, just five words on it, he glanced at it and hurriedly found Zhao Zhen: "Your Majesty, the minister has just received a letter from Lord Fan Feigeon, please return quickly!" ”

Wow, why don't you forget about this stubble! Zhao Zhen apologized deeply for forgetting that Fan Zhongyan was still waiting for him when he was playing with his wife, and hurriedly ordered Zhanzhao to go down and prepare.

Before leaving, Zhao Zhen took Zhang Rou to meet with the representatives of the Mo family headed by He Wuji, and everyone held a symposium. At the meeting, Zhao Zhen, on behalf of the royal family and the people of the world, affirmed the contribution of the Mohist school to Chinese civilization, highly praised their self-discipline and dedication in the front line without fear of hardship or tiredness, and hoped that the Mohists could let go of restrictions, recruit disciples, carry forward the skills of the Mohist organs, and benefit more people!

At the same time, the Mohist ideology was also discussed, and the obvious opposition remarks were eliminated, and all Mohists must first recognize themselves as a common man of the Great Song Dynasty, consciously abide by and maintain the laws and regulations of the Great Song Dynasty, and remove the control of Juzi's thoughts on the Mohists, and they must receive the education of loyalty to the monarch and patriotism.

After intense discussions, the talks finally came to a successful conclusion. In view of the fact that the Mohist school has been declining and he is unable to return to the sky, after obtaining the consent of the audience, in order to conform to the trend of the times, He Wujian made appropriate revisions to the Mohist thought, and also added some opinions of Zhao Zhen and his wife. After this adjustment, the Mohist school is more in line with the image of a practical scholar, focusing on the combination of scientific practice and theory, abandoning politics and focusing on learning.

Since then, the Mohist family has officially become another emerging school in the Great Song Dynasty, which has not only been recognized by the Great Song Dynasty court headed by Zhao Zhen, but also the key funding object of the Siqi Group, and finally became the pioneer of the development of science and technology in the Great Song Dynasty.

This is a matter for later, so let's skip it for the time being.

Let's say, Fan Zhongyan stopped and stopped all the way, slowly and leisurely, looking at the team of people and horses, it was really not like words, so he first asked Zhang Yaozuo to go back with most of the field army, and left a small part of the cavalry to wait for the arrival of the emperor with him.

He waits left and right, and he does wait until the flowers are blooming, and it's spring, and it's normal to bloom. Only then did Zhao Zhen and his party arrive, and that guy was so excited that he burst into tears - he could finally go home!

"Let Aiqing wait for a long time!" Zhao Zhen greeted Fan Zhongyan apologetically.

"It's good for you to come back, this is what a minister should do!" Fan Zhongyan bowed respectfully and saluted.

Zhao Zhen pulled Zhang Rou out from behind and said to Fan Zhongyan: "Aiqing, you have seen this Zhang Rou girl next to me, what do you think?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Miss Zhang is not only dignified and beautiful, but also kind-hearted, and there are countless living people in the process of disaster relief here, and the ministers admire it very much!" Fan Zhongyan saluted Zhang Rou politely again.

"The adults praise falsely, and the little women dare not be ashamed!" Zhang Rou also gave Fan Zhongyan a salute, and in front of outsiders, she was still very well-behaved.

"Well, I think she's good too! That's why I want to make her queen! "Zhao Zhen is not shocking, and he doesn't know modesty at all.

"Ah...... This ......" Fan Zhongyan has been mixed with Zhao Zhen for many years, but he still can't keep up with the rhythm of his leapfrog thinking.

"How? Aiqing has an opinion? ”

"Back to the emperor, this is your private matter, and the minister shouldn't say anything. But you are the emperor, there is no trivial matter in the royal family, and the minister feels ......" Fan Zhongyan's gaze flickered back and forth between Zhao Zhen and Zhang Rou, and he wanted to speak.

"Aiqing has something to say, what kind of sloppiness is there with me!"

"Then the minister can just say it! If there is anything offended, please ask the emperor and Miss Zhang Haihan! Although the queens of the Great Song Dynasty are not high-ranking officials and nobles, almost all of them are from the courtiers...... Of course, being the queen mother is a special case. Miss Zhang's appearance and conduct are impeccable, the only problem is that she is a businessman, you also know that most of the ministers in the court, Shinong businessmen, businessmen are the last, and the ministers are worried about ......" Fan Zhongyan said truthfully after confessing to Zhao Zhen and the others.

"I have also considered this question that Aiqing said, Aiqing doesn't have to worry, I have my own plans, I just tell you first, so that you can be prepared." Zhao Zhen frowned briefly, and then stretched out again.

"Yes, Your Majesty! Dare to ask the emperor, can you drive back to the palace? ”

"Let's go back to the palace!"

"Yes!"

Subsequently, the two-horse carriage, escorted by hundreds of cavalry, headed towards the capital......

In the capital, Sun Fu, who returned after a lot of hardships, was tormented in his heart. It's not that he is worried about being impeached by other ministers because of the content of the agreement, but the painful voices of the relatives of the fallen soldiers echoed in his mind for a long time, but he didn't even have the ability to fight for them to get a little more compensation. His request was easily dismissed. But from time to time, the scene of the soldiers forgetting to die appeared in front of his eyes, torturing his conscience all the time.

On this day, the government that had been suspended because of Zhao Zhen's condolences to the disaster area was restarted, and the ministers rushed to the court with their own thoughts. Of course, among these people, there are inevitably some people who are dissatisfied with the fortunate minister like Sun Fu, and they are finally ready to beat the water dogs when they seize the opportunity. Of course, their move is undoubtedly to brush their presence in front of Zhao Zhen, otherwise how can they say that it depends on the owner to beat the dog?

In the court after a long absence, after Zhao Zhen sat down, Xiao Shunzi shouted in a sharp voice according to the custom: "If there is something to do, play early, and retreat from the court if there is nothing!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a minister stood up: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach the three major crimes of the Ministry of Rites!" ”

"Oh? When did Sun Qing's family have time to commit crimes, why don't I know? You come one by one. Zhao Zhen, the person who spoke, knew that it was a small supervision of the imperial history, which was the responsibility of others, and he couldn't help but let people speak.

"Obey! The first article of the minister's impeachment of Lord Sun is to connive at the thief Li Deming to jump up and down in the Liao State, which damages the majesty of our country; Second, Lord Sun privately signed a trade agreement with Liao, and actually bought useless wool on a large scale, which was treason with the enemy; Third, Lord Sun had no leadership and was ineffective in dealing with it, which caused my Great Song soldiers to be buried in other places. I beg the emperor to punish him! This little imperial Shi Yizheng finished counting Sun Fu with words, and knelt heavily on the ground to implore Zhao Zhen to make a decision.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister also seconded it!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After a while, more than a dozen people knelt in the court, although none of these were ranked above the third grade, but they were the backbone of various departments. At this moment, Zhao Zhen realized that since he ascended the throne, he has been paying attention to the situation of high-ranking officials in various ministries, ignoring the existence of these second- and third-rate ministers.

If this is to be obtained by other emperors, it may be as good as a stream, at least pretending to deal with things. But Zhao Zhen is a stubborn traverser, or a traverser who protects calves, he doesn't want the reputation of Shengshi Mingjun: "Okay!" Look at you one by one, if I am so active in my work, I will wake up laughing in my dreams! I tell you very responsibly that Sun Aiqing's actions are all my meaning, do you want to impeach me together! ”

"Don't dare! Just ......"

"Alright! I have my own plans for the agreement with Liao, you don't need to say much, you will know in the future! Those ministers wanted to hold on, but Zhao Zhen interrupted mercilessly: "I also have a big event to announce today, aren't you ministers always urging me to find the queen!" Today I am going to tell you that my queen has found it, haha...... Are you happy? ”

Happy sister! The ministers really want to use this Zhao Zhen's mantra to send him, Nima doesn't tell us ministers anything, he can do whatever he wants, and does he still take us into account?

However, the ministers only complained in their hearts, and finally had to find someone to come out and light the cannon, after some eye discussion, Yan Shu, as the prime minister, became the person who lit the cannon: "Emperor, can you tell the minister, which girl do you like?" ”

"Of course you can, her name is Zhang Rou!" Zhao Zhen replied with a smile.

Zhang Rou? It's a familiar name, but I can't remember who it is. These are the words of the ministers, and everyone has exchanged words for a while to no avail.

Fortunately, there was a young official with a comparative memory, and he stood up to solve everyone's doubts: "Emperor Qi, dare to ask you that this is the Zhang Rou girl in the Jinling rebellion case?" ”

"Good memory, it's this woman!"

Listening to Zhao Zhen's affirmative answer, the ministers were silent, you look at me, I look at you, and we opened a new round of eye contact.

There are only two people in the huge court who have not talked to others, one is Fan Zhongyan, he knew it first. The other person is the privy envoy Zhang Yaozuo, he is the only person in the court who has contacted Zhang Rou in advance except Fan Zhongyan, due to personal personality reasons, Zhang Yaozuo's understanding of Zhang Rou is far above Fan Zhongyan. At this moment, he ignored the autumn wave sent by the privy deputy envoy Zhang Dexiang, and looked at his fast eyes, he knew that his brain was running at high speed.

"Your Majesty, the minister is fortunate to have a glimpse of Miss Zhang Rou's face, Miss Zhang's skin is like condensed fat, her hands are like soft wattles, ice muscles and jade bones, bright eyes and bright teeth, it is really the appearance of a sinking fish and a goose, and the appearance of a shy flower in the closed moon! Not only that, she is also kind-hearted, although she is rich and rivals the country, but she can benefit her neighbors, and the name of 'Zhang Bodhisattva' in Jinling is a household name. Moreover, in the process of disaster relief, she donated more than 10 million yuan of family property and led countless caravans under her, which is completely worthy of being a model of motherhood in the world! For this woman to be the queen, the minister raised his hands in favor! When everyone hesitated, Zhang Yaozuo was the first to jump out to everyone's surprise.

This also surprised Zhao Zhen, in his impression, these ministers of the Song Dynasty were notoriously bad-tempered, and he was ready to fight a sniper battle, but the atmosphere at the scene was suddenly changed by this guy. Well, I have to say that this guy is very discerning and promising!

Zhang Yaozuo himself is not as obedient as Zhao Zhen thought, and he has a last resort to do so. As mentioned earlier, Zhao Zhen promoted him by mistake because of a misunderstanding, although Zhao Zhen didn't know that he had played a big oolong, but Zhang Yaozuo had no confidence in his heart. He was suddenly promoted, with no backers above and no teammates below, and this unknown environment left him at a loss. Zhang Rou's appearance gave him a glimmer of opportunity, he was confident that he relied on his own means, coupled with Zhang Rou who was stronger than everyone else, not to mention his own family, these many factors determined that he had more advantages than others.

History has once again proved that opportunities are important to a person, of course, but only if they can be seized!
