After waiting patiently for a few days, Chen Ke finally waited for the summons of the official family.

It was Li Xian who came to deliver the decree, and now there is a big change of blood in the palace, he has been promoted again, and now he is the head of the inner palace of the inner service province, and he is a real senior eunuch. At his age, it was naturally not just luck to be able to climb to such a high position. His deep and steady personality and smart and flexible mind are the key.

The two have known each other for several years, and Li Xian still remembers that when he was just an internal servant of the Yellow Gate, Chen Ke handed over his knots, so he respected the young Chen very much. Chen Ke also saw that he was a character, and he had invested a lot in him over the years, Li Xian knew it, otherwise he would not have come to deliver the decree in person.

"Why do you come in person?" On the way to the palace, the two were in the same car. Chen Ke said with a smile: "Let the waiter Huangmen run away, it's okay." ”

"Our family happens to be free, I haven't seen the bachelor for a long time, so I missed it, so I didn't let them run errands." Li Xian was wearing a new purple official robe, smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Second, the palace is now strict, and some words can only be said outside...... The official family has been in a bad mood recently, and when the bachelor plays right, he has to take it easy. ”

Chen Ke knew that he still had a following, nodded and said nothing.

"Also," Li Xian said in a low voice: "Actually, in the first few years of the official family, I liked you very much and often asked for your news. But since you went to Liao with that person, I rarely mention you. ”

Chen Ke nodded, he could also understand this change.

"Let's talk a lot," Li Xian whispered: "In the past, you shouldn't have gotten too close to that person, although you are a small friendship, but if you win the Jinshi, you are born ...... the Son of Heaven."

"That's already it." Chen Ke smiled bitterly: "If people change often, they will die if they don't get sick." ”

"The bachelor must be clearer than our family," Li Xian said softly: "Our family didn't say that you should change." After all, today is not the same as before......"

Chen Ke understood. This guy is looking forward to the autumn and is preparing for the back road...... Thinking that the thirty-six heads had landed in less than half a month, the palace people thought again. He couldn't help but sigh secretly, it seems that the general trend is unstoppable, and the officials in the palace have really become a thing of the past.

The official family is just fifty years old! But to face such a cruel reality...... Chen Ke finally understood. Having a son was so important to the emperor.

Seeing that he was a little distracted, Li Xian thought that he was scared of him, so he comforted him softly: "Actually, the heart of the official family is very soft, and when there is such a thing in the palace, I didn't expect to kill people, and even those sluts who committed crimes just let them become monks." Saying that, he lowered his voice and said: "The bachelor has great merit, you don't know that Dali was attached back then." What the official family is happy to become. Therefore, in the future, if the bachelor can dispel the prejudices of the official family, the future life will be much better. ”

"Thank you, Brother Li, for reminding me." Chen Ke nodded lightly and said, "It's just that there is something unclear below......

"Don't you want to know. Why am I telling you this? Li Xian smiled: "Actually, our family also likes that one in our hearts." Heroic and energetic. Not like the other one. The official family has learned ninety percent, but the official family lacks the kindness of the official. ”

"How?"

"The brother of the Imperial City Division said that his fourth brother died on the Cuixiang Tower, and he went to see it, and he didn't mean to be sad at all, just thinking about how to cover up his ugliness." Li Xian shuddered and said: "If you are like this to your brothers, can you still be good to your subordinates?" ”

"But the big picture is decided." Chen Ke smiled bitterly: "The family is a virtuous king, and this errand was also done beautifully, our one has no hope." ”

"Where is this, it's not certain who will kill the deer." In front of Chen Ke, Li Xian was still tender after all: "With our family watching coldly over the years, the official family seems to like you more." ”

"If you choose people based on likes and dislikes, you won't be the official family today." Chen Ke said lightly: "It depends on who is more suitable......"

"We didn't say anything today." While speaking, it was almost time to reach the Xuande Gate, and Li Xian smiled and said, "Bachelor, please get off the bus." ”

"Nature." Chen Ke nodded, got out of the carriage, he did not have the right to ride a horse and sit in a sedan chair in the palace, so he could only walk in.

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

Zhao Zhen did not see him in the vertical arch hall, but in his own bedroom.

But Chen Ke didn't see the emperor immediately, Li Xian went in, came out and frowned: "Princess Gongguo's mother-in-law is suddenly here, let's have tea first." When he came to people, Li Xian would not show a little closeness, and after speaking, he turned around and left.

Chen Ke waited patiently, but after waiting for half an hour, he saw a fat woman wearing a luxurious palace costume walking in front of him...... It is estimated that this is the current emperor's mother-in-law and uncle, the Duchess Yang.

The relationship is a bit chaotic, to put it simply, Yang's husband is called Li Yonghe, and he is the younger brother of the emperor's biological mother, Concubine Li Chen. In the second year of Mingdao, Liu E died, and the official family knew his life experience...... the joke of 'tanuki for prince', which came from this. But in the real history, there is no old bag to mix, and Li Niangniang is long gone, and the official family is not so blessed to see his own mother.

In order to make up for the guilt of his biological mother, Zhao Zhen repeatedly promoted his uncle Li Yonghe's official position, and felt unhappy, so he surrendered his eldest daughter Princess Fukang to Li Yonghe and his second son Li Wei, that is, his cousin...... Well, it seems to be a bit incest, but Princess Shang's family, according to the routine, is to be collectively demoted, which seems to be reasonable.

But in short, it is still the Tang style of the Great Song Dynasty, the etiquette is not prosperous, and it is not uncommon to climb the ashes to raise a little uncle, and marrying a daughter to a cousin is really nothing.

The heirs of the official family were difficult, and none of the sons survived. In addition to the eldest daughter, even the eight daughters who gave birth to them also died, and the tenth princess who was recently promised to Di Yong was actually the second daughter of the official family to grow up.

It can be imagined how much the official family will love his eldest daughter. The princess of this dynasty was canonized at the beginning of the beautiful name, and then the country was sealed, and the 'blessing and health' of the official family to the eldest daughter Fuhui and health were blessed. It is said that she is really as the official family expects, intelligent, beautiful, and very filial.

In the second year of Jiayou, Chen Ke participated in the imperial examination in Beijing, and was fortunate to witness the grand canonization ceremony held by the official family for the twenty-year-old princess.

Also in the same year. The princess surrendered to Li Wei. A thrifty official. It cost 100,000 yuan to build a mansion for the princess, and the love for the daughter can be seen. However, a grand wedding does not guarantee the quality of the marriage. The marriage between the princess and the concubine is not harmonious, thanks to the big mouth of the Yang family, and it has long been known throughout the city.

There is no way for outsiders to know. But it's strange that this marriage can be happy. Because of the old saying; 'The door is not right, the door is not right'. In this regard, Sima Guang once said to Chen Ke with deep feelings: 'In the future, you must remember that when you marry a daughter-in-law, you must marry someone who is higher than your own family, and if you marry a daughter-in-law, you must marry someone lower than your own family, so that life will be better. ’

Needless to say, the princess of the Kingdom of Gon is a lady of heaven who grew up in the most elegant and privileged environment. And the uncle Li Yonghe was originally trapped in Bianjing and made a living by making dark coins. It wasn't until Empress Dowager Liu and the official family recognized their mother that the Li family rose to prominence. Saying goes. III was an official. Fang knows how to dress and wear hats. Li Wei, who mixed up with a vulgar atmosphere in the market when he was a teenager, how did he get into the eyes of the princess?

Of course. Behind unhappy marriages, there is often a bad mother-in-law. The princess is strong, and the Yang family is also strong, she can't stand the princess's arrogance, and she can't accept that the two have not had a round house after two years of marriage, and often quarrel with the princess, and then turn around to find the emperor to comment.

It is estimated that this duchess is here to sue again......

"Long time no see." Xu was exhausted by Yang's bombing, and Zhao Zhen was lying on an easy chair with a thin blanket on his lap to meet Chen Ke. He looked at Chen Ke and remembered the excitement and joy that this kid brought him two or three years ago, and couldn't help laughing: "You have been quite safe recently. ”

"The official family has reduced ......," Chen Ke's eyes were a little red.

"It's hard to buy money and be thin." Zhao Zhen smiled, saw Chen Ke's appearance, and said strangely: "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Nothing." Chen Keqiang said with a smile: "Weichen just thought of the situation when he first faced the saint. ”

"That was the first year of Jiayou...... Zhao Zhen had a good memory, and said slowly: "At that time, the widow had just recovered from illness," and paused and said: "Now it's also ......."

"The Son of Heaven helps each other, but he also has to take care of the dragon......'s body," Chen Ke said softly.

"Sit down." Zhao Zhen smiled and said, "The widow is a little tired, but that's because I just sent away an old lady." said with a wry smile: "I think you also know that my own mother is more difficult than ten imperial histories." ”

Chen Ke was infected by the calmness of the official family, he admired Zhao Zhen for this, no matter how many things he encountered, he could keep the clouds calm and light...... Maybe it's because I've experienced too much.

"Weichen will go out and wait first," Chen Ke said softly: "Wait for the official family to rest before coming in." He treated Zhao Zhen with the attitude of ministers serving the emperor in later film and television dramas. This made the official family who lived in the Song Dynasty and was always bullied by the ministers feel extraordinarily ironed.

"No need," Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "You can lie down and say, you won't be tired for half a day." Saying that, he looked at Chen Ke and said, "Have you ever complained about the widow?" ”

"Nope." Chen Ke shook his head categorically.

"Tell the truth." Zhao Zhen said lightly: "How could it not be?" ”

"It's the truth. Wechen doesn't say lies like 'thunder, rain and dew, all are Jun's grace'. Chen Ke said calmly: "But Weichen has always done what he wants, and if he feels that he should do it, I will do it if I lose my pants." I thought that recovering Dali would be good for the Great Song Dynasty, so I went for it. Before I did it, I didn't think about what I would get. After doing it, this thing was done, proving that I was right, and it was the greatest reward for Wechen. ”

Zhao Zhen looked at Chen Ke's clear gaze, nodded slowly, and said, "It seems that the widow underestimates your mind, Chen Zhongfang has the spirit of an ancient sage." ”

"The official family praised it falsely," Chen Ke said with a smile: "Weichen is stupid and bold, not to mention that I am not completely selfless." It was the official who said that as long as I can make immortal achievements, they will give me a marriage. ”

"Hahaha......" Zhao Zhen couldn't help laughing and said, "Are you really serious?" ”

"If the official can't speak, it doesn't count......" Chen Ke said with a bitter face: "Weichen is so easy to get the two ends, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed......"

"That's not what the widow meant," Zhao Zhen shook his head and smiled: "You are also my nephew, don't you make meritorious contributions, and the widow won't help you?" ”
