After Lu Yijian settled in the soil for peace, the position of Xiangguo attracted the attention of many people, and the recent newspapers are also discussing who will become the next Xiangguo. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

There are three most suitable candidates, Bao Zheng, Fan Zhongyan, and Xia Zhu.

These three people, Bao Zheng, are not very positive about this position, and Renzong is a little repulsive to Fan Zhongyan, he doesn't want his Xiangguo to be too upright, so Xia Zhu has become the one with the highest voice and the most opportunity.

In order to get this position, Xia Zhu had to win the support of most people in the DPRK, so during this period of time, he stepped up his contact with Pang Ji on the one hand, and on the other hand, seeing that Chen Yuan did not come out, Fan Zhongyan and those people seemed to be a little chaotic in the pace of implementing the new policy, and also made a compromise posture, hoping that the relationship between the two sides could be repaired to the previous state, at least no longer such hostility.

Xia Zhu's attitude made the quarrel above the court a lot weaker, and Renzong was very happy.

There have been a lot of things that have made him happy recently, and God has rained a large area at the right time, so that the spring plowing of the entire Great Song Dynasty has been successfully completed, which is at least a good start.

The matter of the king of Xiangyang is also over, Song Qi sent a war report, in the whole battle, the army of the king of Xiangyang could not compete with these new armies formed by Renzong at all, Di Qing defeated the king of Xiangyang with the speed of a march, the only regret is that he was not able to capture him alive, this guy committed suicide in the palace he had just built, so he could only send his body to Bianjing.

Di Qing's troops then moved westward and had already marched to the party area.

The party is very chaotic now, Yeli Yuqi can not deter those party and wealthy clans without the support of the Song Dynasty, they are now a pot of porridge, and there is no alliance and no boundaries. The party members living there are not struggling on the line of death, but struggling in hell.

All those who could escape were on the run, thinking of a way to leave the place where there were no longer living people.

This scene caused a lot of pressure not only on the party, but also on the surrounding vassal states. When they all saw that it was impossible for the party to restore its previous stability without the intervention of external forces, the Tibetan and Uighur envoys took the lead in writing a letter requesting the Song army to send troops to the party to solve the party problem, save the civilians from fire and water, and at the same time relieve their pressure.

Everything was as Chen Shimei expected, and those people took the initiative to invite themselves. Those vassal states, as well as the civilians of those party items, and even Ye Li Yu begged himself to write a letter, asking the Song army to enter quickly and help the entire party and nation to retain their last breath.

Renzong looked at it and sighed softly: "Chen Shimei, it's time to let him come out, it's up to him to do what to do next." ”

Xia Zhu stood below, raised his eyes to see Renzong's face, and immediately said: "Long live, the minister also thinks that although Chen Shimei is at fault, even if he is punished heavily, it is only a demotion." Besides, everything is clear about him, and there is nothing to hide, and it is really not a proper strategy to drag it out like this. ”

Renzong nodded: "I understand, it's just that what's going on between Taishi and Chen Shimei?" ”

Xia Zhu had long known that Lao Pang was going to deal with Chen Shimei, but he didn't know the reason, because there was no reason at all. Hearing Renzong ask him, he hurriedly said: "Long live, the old minister is also unknown." ”

Renzong thought for a while, and said with some sadness: "What I hope is that Chen Shimei can get along with Taishi after he comes out this time, if he is released now, I'm afraid they will fight again, Taiwei Xia, how many days is Taishi's birthday?" ”

Xia Zhu said: "Long live back, and then it will be." ”

Renzong waved his hand: "Then let's talk about it later, let the Taishi know in advance that Chen Shimei came out, I'm afraid he will be resentful." I want to go to congratulate the birthday in person when the Taishi celebrates his birthday, bring that Chen Shimei, and you can go too, and see if you can resolve the conflict between them. ”

Xia Zhu responded: "Yes." ”

Xia Zhu was very happy, Renzong said this, it was clear that he wanted to deal with this matter as a housework, and let himself intervene in his housework, which was undoubtedly a more obvious signal.

Renzong and Xia Zhu didn't know that Chen Yuan and Pang Ji were playing a game of life and death, and now Chen Yuan finally withstood Pang Ji's round after round of attacks, and he was ready to fight back, even if Pang Ji was willing to let Chen Yuan go, Chen Yuan would not let him go.

What's more, Pang Ji had no intention of stopping at all.

"Concubine, how are things going in the palace?" Pang Ji sat on his Taishi chair, shaking and shaking, and looked very calm, but in fact he was very troubled now, really very worried.

The failure of several plans frustrated all his original plans, Su Xiaoyou entered the palace smoothly, Pang Ji believed that Chen Yuan would not give up, and as soon as he came out, it was time for him to attack him.

At that time, there was a Su Xiaoyou in the palace to help him, which was very unfavorable to him.

Pang Ji thought like this, he wanted to deal with Su Xiaoyou's affairs before Chen Yuan came out, so that he would be much safer and could also hit Renzong. Sometimes, striking the emperor is the best way to delay the opponent's offensive.

He didn't expect that Chen Yuan was already going to make a move.

Concubine Pang frowned: "That wild girl is very alert, she runs to the queen every day, and the queen's attitude towards her has changed a lot now, and she really can't find a chance to start." ”

Pang Ji gasped deeply: "Daughter, if that girl gives birth to the child, if it is a dragon, our son will be able to count it, but he is not afraid of anything for his father, the old bones are all over it, it doesn't matter." It's just you,"

Pang Guifei suddenly slapped the table: "Daddy, our family doesn't have to talk like this, right?" ”

Pang Ji saw that she was a little angry, thinking that it was indeed a little inappropriate for him to say that, and smiled awkwardly: "Lost his words for his father, lost his words for his father." ”

Pang Guifei's eyes showed a cold light: "Daddy, don't worry, my daughter has been in the palace for many years, how can Su Xiaoyou be compared?" When I return to the palace, if she knows each other, it will be fine, if she doesn't know each other, and she still thinks about things she shouldn't think, I won't let her live until the child is born. ”

Pang Ji nodded: "It's just, if Empress Cao protects her?" ”

Pang Guifei sneered: "Then get rid of it together, anyway, I don't want that woman to stand on my head all day long." ”

The two of them were talking, when they suddenly heard the porter come in and report: "Taishi, Niangniang, the queen sent someone to send a congratulatory gift." ”

Pang Ji immediately got up from his chair: "Let's go, let's pick it up in person, and the number of courtesies is still indispensable." ”

Queen Cao didn't send many congratulatory gifts, even if she sent more Pang Ji didn't look at it, for Queen Cao this is what it means, indicating that she has the Taishi in her eyes, and for Pang Ji, she can tell others that the queen remembers herself.

It was the palace guards who gave the gifts, led by Yang Yi, which really surprised Pang Ji.

Although Yang Yi's level in the palace is not high, but he is a person next to Renzong, so Yang Yi will not be allowed to run errands like this, not to mention that Yang Yi is deaf, and it is inconvenient to do this kind of thing.

Yang Yi suddenly trembled when he saw Pang Ji, he had never framed anyone, the tension of harming someone for the first time was completely presented on his face, and he couldn't find the slightest trace of his calmness.

Pang Ji looked at Yang Yi's face with a slight surprise, but he didn't suspect anything.

He has followed Renzong for more than 20 years, and he knows Yang Yi's personality very well, Pang Ji never thought that Yang Yi would become the last stick in Chen Yuan's hands to send him to the grave.

He smiled at Yang Yi, and after clenching his fists, he made a series of gestures to greet Yang Yi.

Pang Ji can sign language, he is a talented person, as Bao Zheng said, if he can put himself in the right position and not be bothered by the battles of those courts, Pang Ji can be the top minister of the Great Song Dynasty.

Yang Yi collected his mind after a while, and also smiled at Pang Ji, and communicated with sign language, which meant to tell Pang Ji that he came because he also prepared a gift for Pang Ji, although he was not in Pang Ji's eyes, but he hoped that Pang Taishi would laugh at it.

Pang Ji smiled, patted Yang Yi's shoulder, and didn't say anything more.

Pang Guifei on the side said: "Daddy, do we still have green onion cakes at home?" Bring some to the queen's mother, the queen likes to eat that. ”

This is the old rule, Empress Cao once tasted the green onion cake at Master Pang's house, and praised it as more delicious than the one in the palace, so Concubine Pang Guifei had to bring some such cakes to Empress Cao every time she went home, and it has been a rule for many years.

Pang Ji knew, and so did Yang Yi.

Pang Ji immediately took some out of the room, and after looking at it, Pang Guifei said, "How can Daddy do this?" You let the room do some of it, so that the queen can still taste it while the guards run back to the palace. ”

Pang Ji patted his head: "Look at my head, I'm busy and confused." ”

So he immediately beckoned Fang Xindo, and at the same time let Yang Yi and the others rest here. Everything is normal, just like every time I came to the Taishifu before.

The guards laughed happily, they knew that when Concubine Pang asked them to go faster, they would always give some rewards, which could be a month's worth or two months' worth of money. In short, a trip is good or bad.

Yang Yi sat among the guards, although his face had calmed down a lot, but his heart was like a turbulent fluctuation.

A moment later, the hot pastries were brought up, the people of the Taishi Mansion packed the packages, and the guards went out after receiving the reward. Master Pang was very generous, and several people got together with a reward, which was enough for them to go to the most identifiable place in Bianjing to have a chic walk, and when they were discussing where to go, Yang Yi turned around and gestured to them: "You guys go slowly, I'll go back to the queen first with the pastries." ”

Those guards have been with Yang Yi for a long time, of course they understand this meaning, and it is not the first time that Yang Yi has taken the initiative to provoke drudgery for them to go chic, and several people were immediately overjoyed, and they were busy hugging their fists to thank them.

Yang Yi galloped alone, and after walking through two street corners, he suddenly jumped into an alley, knocked on a wooden door in the alley a few times, the door opened, and Yang Yi quickly flashed in.

There is also a large steamer inside, and inside the steamer, there is also hot green onion cake!

A few people quickly took out the green onion cakes from the box on Pang Ji's mansion, and then replaced them with theirs, and after that, Yang Yi went out and continued to hurry.

Empress Cao saw the pastry she took from Concubine Pang Guifei's house, pinched a piece and put it in her mouth: "Huh? Why is the taste different this time than the last few times? ”

Her brows furrowed, and she looked at Yang Yi, who was standing there as if he didn't know anything. Empress Cao sighed: "Forget it, it's useless to ask you." ”

A trustworthy palace lady next to her said: "I think the concubine's family has changed cooks, Niangniang, or take these down if they don't match the taste?" ”

When Empress Cao was about to nod, she suddenly smiled: "Forget it, just put it here, this is a piece of the concubine's heart, and it can't be wasted." ”

Yang Yi bowed and retreated, and as soon as he turned around, he heard someone shouting: "Su Guiren has come to say goodbye to the queen." ”
