"You're here specifically to tell me this?" As soon as Chen Ke heard this, it was still an endless officialdom struggle, and he immediately lost interest: "What does this have to do with me?" ”

"It matters," Zhao Zongji said lightly: "The official family wants to see you......"

"See me......" Chen Ke's expression froze.

"Hmm." Zhao Zongji commanded outside: "Let's go." ”

"Where are you going?"

"Enter the palace."

"In such a hurry, you have to let me change my clothes, right?"

"It's nice to wear this."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the way to the palace, Chen Ke was a little nervous: "This ...... It's so sudden. ”

"I thought you didn't know what nervousness was." Zhao Zongji smiled and said in a low voice: "Entering the palace today to say hello, I told the official family about the attack you were attacked last month, and the official family was kind, so I said, you can take him here." ”

"......" Chen Ke was a little moved in his heart, how could he not know? has become the people summoned by the official family, those people will inevitably be bogeyed, and their safety must be guaranteed.

"It's not just to give you a strong voice," Zhao Zongji said softly: "At this juncture, eighty percent will also ask about the Liuta River." What are you going to say? ”

"......" Chen Ke looked at Zhao Zongji: "What do you mean?" ”

"Wenfu has a good reputation, and he is in the prime of life, and he will be ...... in the future," Zhao Zongji said slowly: "If you don't give them any face, I'm afraid you will sit on wax in the future." ”

Chen Ke knew that Zhao Zongji was doing this for his own good, and for a newcomer who was preparing to enter the officialdom, making the young leader jealous would have a serious negative impact on the entire career. And unfortunately, both prime ministers are recognized as 'righteous men and gentlemen', and if you oppose them, you won't even get a good reputation......

"Who is afraid?!" Chen Ke sneered: "It's a big deal to go back to my hometown in Sichuan, let me wipe the butts of these hypocrites, don't think about it!" "Lao Tzu picked up a life so easily, An Neng broke his eyebrows and bent his waist to deal with the powerful, so that I couldn't be happy?

"Alas......" Zhao Zongji smiled bitterly: "Then what kind of jinshi do you take?" ”

"Ten years of cold window, you have to give yourself an explanation." Chen Ke said coldly: "I originally planned that if this official was happy, he would be fooled for a few years, which could be regarded as an explanation to the imperial court." If you are not happy, go home immediately and live my life happily. ”

"Yanai?" Zhao Zongji was stunned and said, "You still have such ideals? ”

"I told you earlier."

"I thought you were joking."

"I also thought that the official family of the Great Song Dynasty was not distinguishing between black and white, which was a joke."

“……”

"......" fell silent in the carriage, and neither of them spoke.

When he was about to arrive at Xuande Gate, Zhao Zongjifang gently pressed Chen Ke's shoulder and said in a low voice: "Say whatever you want." ”

"Isn't my word going to be your meaning?" Chen Ke understood.

"Well, you were called into the palace by me, and they will naturally think that you are saying things for me, which is inconvenient to say." Zhao Zongji smiled and said, "What's the matter with them, what am I doing with an idle sect?" Just say it! ”

"......" Chen Ke was silent again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you want to choose the most magnificent palace in China, there must be some controversy, but if you want to choose the most shabby, there is no dispute, it must be the palace of the Zhao family in Bianjing of the Northern Song Dynasty. Its predecessor was the Tang Xuanwu Army Jie Du Embassy Office, and the Later Liang changed this Office to Jianchang Palace, which opened the history of this place as the imperial palace.

After that, it went through the Later Jin Dynasty and the Later Zhou Dynasty, and it was the turn of this dynasty to become the master. In the third year of Jianlong, Zhao Kuangyin, who stabilized the regime, finally requisitioned craftsmen and ordered people to build them according to the palace system of Luoyang in the Tang Dynasty. However, due to the refusal of the surrounding residents to relocate, the emperor of the Song Dynasty did not know what the forced demolition was, so he finally had to merge the imperial city and the palace city into one, and set up part of the central government office in the front part of the palace, and put the emperor's dormitory and concubine palace and some palace facilities at the back of the palace, separated by an east-west horizontal street.

If you draw a bird's-eye view, you will find that the palaces of other dynasties have strict central axis, pay attention to symmetry, and the law is rigorous, only the palace of the Song Dynasty, although each part pays attention to the law, but the whole is piled together like building blocks, only for complete functions, and the others are not taken care of......

Of course, the so-called 'shabby' is also because of the longitudinal comparison in the long river of history, in this era alone, the Great Song Dynasty Palace is still the most magnificent building complex in the world. Every person who stands under the Xuande Gate for the first time will be deeply shocked by its tall and majestic.

But Chen Ke is not included, because the shape of the Xuande Gate is the same as the noon gate of the Forbidden City in later generations, and it is also one size smaller. For those who have visited the Forbidden City in Beijing, it is difficult to have another palace that can make him make a fuss.

Entering the Xuande Gate, a magnificent palace located on the top of the three-story Dan Majesty came to the face, this is the Daqing Palace, which is equivalent to the Taihe Hall of later generations. This made Chen Ke feel unaccustomed, because between the Taihe Hall and the Noon Gate, there is also a Taihe Gate, and the two large open squares in the north and south show the royal atmosphere.

But the palace of the Song Dynasty, as soon as you enter the palace gate, it is the main hall, and only the three-layer platform in front of the palace is used as a buffer, which is much colder than the Forbidden City. It seems that the rumor of not competing with the people for land is true...... This made Chen Ke finally have a good impression of the official family of the Song Dynasty.

"This way." Zhao Zongji signaled Chen Ke to turn right, walked east along the north corridor, entered the left Changqing Gate, went north for about a mile, passed the left Yintai Gate, and went on the east and west streets separating the inner and outer palaces. On this imperial corridor, another mile or so, and when he arrived at the door of the vertical arch hall, Zhao Zongji said: "It's here." ”

led Chen Ke into the vertical arch hall, and Zhao Zongji asked the eunuch to enter the courtesy. While waiting, a little eunuch invited the two of them to the ear room to roast the fire, brought ginger soup, and brought two pairs of clean shoes...... Although they were wearing umbrellas, the two of them were still wet along the way, especially the shoes on their feet, which were completely and completely soaked.

When the two of them stopped fiddling, the chamberlain also came.

The two of them quickly got up, held their breath, passed through the layers of curtains, and when they arrived at the entrance of the palace, they saw a middle-aged man wearing a blue gauze robe, jasper hairpin, kind eyebrows, and a sickly face, sitting on the Hu bed and smiling at them.

"The child meets his uncle...... Zhao Zongji immediately took a deep seat.

"The grass people meet the saints." Chen Ke also hurriedly immediately took a deep seat...... On the way here, he had repeatedly confirmed that this was the etiquette of the courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty when they saw the king, although he knew that it was because the 'kneeling ceremony' was not invented, but he still felt dark...... It's great not to have to bow and knock three times.

"Let's be flat." A gentle voice sounded: "Ji'er, this is Chen Sanlang." ”

"Yes, uncle." Zhao Zongji said: "This is Chen Ke. ”

"Hmm......" The official looked at Chen Ke with a smile, seeing that he was tall, with broad shoulders and a thin waist, he was heroic, and he was wearing a white shirt and soap belt of a student, and it was difficult to hide the atmosphere of books between his eyebrows, giving people a feeling of both civil and military. He couldn't help but smile and praised: "Chen Sijian has raised a good son!" ”

Chen Ke was also secretly looking at Da Song, this gentle middle-aged uncle, his words and demeanor made people feel like a spring breeze, if he didn't have to be fake in this palace, he really couldn't connect him with the king of a country.

"Don't be restrained, your father and the widow will soon become brothers-in-law," the official laughed and said, "Speaking of which, you still have to call me an uncle......

"......" Chen Ke is this sweat, although they are also joking like this in private, but who dares to climb this relative? He said, 'Don't dare'.

"Even if you don't call yourself an uncle," the official smiled: "You should call yourself a 'minister', not a 'grass people', isn't it because the official rank of the undertaker is too small?" ”

"No, grass people...... Oh no, Weichen," Chen Ke was still a little nervous when he saw the famous Song Renzong, so he returned to normal and said: "I really didn't think of myself as an official, this undertaker, forget it if you don't mention it." ”

"Hehehe, it's okay to forget." The official family waved his hand, and there were palace people, serving two brocade piers.

Zhao Zongji thanked him and sat down.

Chen Ke didn't know whether to sit or not, and was a little stunned...... The TV series in his previous life told him that there are many rules in the palace, such as the treatment that only high-ranking ministers or princes like Zhao Zongji have to sit, and a little coffee like himself is not bad if he doesn't kneel, how can he hope to have a seat?

"Sit down." The official smiled and said: "Don't be restrained, your family will talk privately, just treat me as your uncle." ”

Chen Ke said that he didn't dare, and put half of his butt on the Jindun.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Actually, we've been friends for a long time." The official family asked Chen Ke and Zhao Zongji to serve two bowls of angelica and red date soup for them to drink to ward off the cold. After the two of them drank it all, they smiled and said: "Your "Dictionary" is still a preface made by a widow. ”

"The kindness of the official family," Chen Ke hurriedly got up and said, "Weichen Minggan is guilty." ”

"Sit down and say, don't stand up at every turn, you don't feel uncomfortable, but the widow is still uncomfortable." The official smiled and blamed: "What kind of kindness is that, you may not understand what this "Dictionary" means to the Great Song Dynasty." ”

"Weichen really doesn't know," Chen Ke said softly: "I just felt that I should do this, so I did it." I didn't expect to alarm the officials. ”

Zhao Zongji glanced at him in surprise, and said with a secret smile in his heart: "I thought that in front of you, you don't know the height of the sky, this is not in the official family, and you are as well-behaved as a kitten." ’

"To say that this is the prosperous era of culture and education, and the century-old national policy of my Great Song Dynasty has also been magnified because of this." The official family smiled and said: "The number of people who know words, read classics, know etiquette, and know faith and righteousness will greatly increase, and the prosperity of our Song Dynasty literature and education will far exceed that of eight generations." ”

"The official family praised it." Chen Ke, this Khan, does the emperor want to open a night school to eliminate illiteracy?
