In Bianliang in November, after a north wind, snowflakes fell from the sky. This was the first snow in the first year of Jianlong and the first snow in the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Pu sat at home, with a little wine warm on the small stove, this is the inner wine specially given by the official family, which is brewed by the inner wine workshop and is specially used for the palace.

Of course, after Zhou Shizong Chai Rong went north to the river, he brought back many craftsmen who were good at winemaking, and since then there has been an inner wine shop in Bianliang City. The good wine in it belonged to the royal family, and the favored ministers and close to the royal family would be rewarded, and ordinary officials could only taste it during the annual banquet.

At that time, Zhao Pu was only one of the German soldiers who joined the army, and he couldn't get in touch with it at all, and as a good drinker, it was inevitable that he would have some regrets. Now it's different, Zhao Kuangyin, who assisted him wholeheartedly, ascended the throne, and naturally treated him as a confidant and important minister.

Today's Zhao Pu has more and more tricky tastes, except for the inner wine, other drinks don't taste good at all. So much so that the old wife couldn't help complaining: "You, it's easy to go from thrift to luxury, it's difficult to go from luxury to frugality, and the wine in the house is an occasional reward from the official, don't take it as a habit." With that, he continued to warm the wine on the stove.

said unintentionally, the listener was intentional, Zhao Pu suddenly became excited, what the old wife said is very reasonable! The wine is a reward, in case one day......

No, Zhao Pu suddenly had a little more sense of distress, but it is impossible for people to be absolutely rational. From a small member of the army to become a privy deputy envoy, and when he was a doctor on the right side, Zhao Pu's state of mind has completely changed, and his pursuit of life has changed. Why drink that light and tasteless ordinary wine?

Since you can be a master, why do you still "steal your life"? Life is just a few decades in a hurry, and dullness may be a blessing, but it is also boring. As for the old wife's worries, Zhao Pu just laughed it off. Why should rewards only be occasional? Why can't it become the norm?

If the official family can't do without themselves, if the Great Song Dynasty can't do without themselves, can there be a jar of wine missing from the inner wine shop? Zhao Pu knows better than anyone that the current prime ministers are all old ministers of the Later Zhou Dynasty, and they may not be loyal. Even if they swear allegiance to the Great Song Dynasty, the Zhao official family will not think so, and it is inevitable to change the prime minister, and at that time......

Under one person, above ten thousand, can the scenery be beautiful. Go down in history. Although there is another person above, Zhao Pu does not think about it, since the end of the Tang Dynasty, has any Wenchen sat on the throne? People should have the least sobriety, and a supreme minister is enough.

There is a premise for this, the country of the Great Song Dynasty must be stable, without the big tree of the Zhao family, where can I go to enjoy the shade?

Snowflakes floated outside the window, and warm wine was in the throat, full of warmth. But Zhao Pu didn't have much heart to appreciate the snow and wine, and his mind was always on some people in the city. Recently, there has been instability in Bianliang City, and yesterday the official family actually intended to let themselves investigate, but they had no clue how to start?

Zhao Pu is a shrewd person. is self-aware, and if he can't do it, he still has to find hardships by himself, not to mention the danger that he can predict, he doesn't want to be lightly mixed with it. If you lose, you may lose your future. Even if it is a net worth, even if it is done, what can it do? It's just the icing on the cake. But it is possible to end up with gossip that excludes dissidents, which is not beneficial to reputation, so why bother wading into troubled waters?

So he lost no time in recommending Zhao Zheng, Zhao Pu knew in his heart that the official family was still very optimistic about Zhao Zheng, but he was just worried. At this time, there is no harm in fueling the flames, Zhao Zheng's ability is there, if he succeeds, the official family will remember that he has made a good recommendation. In the future, Zhao Zheng should also be grateful to himself, a good thing that he will make sure and not lose money!

Sure enough, in just one day, there was an extraordinary response. Fifth son, when he heard this title, Zhao Pu knew it in his heart, it seems that this cold stove has been burned into a hot kang by himself!

Zhao Zheng also lived up to expectations, I heard that a dyeing shop owner was caught from the Wuzhang River, although I don't know what the Imperial City Division found, but it must have opened up the situation, just wait to see a good show.

The official must be happy, some people must be anxious, that one may be a little unhappy! This Jiangshan surname is Zhao, and everyone is also surnamed Zhao, but the same surname is not the same life!

……

The first snow fell in the Great Song Dynasty, and when it was relatively stable after the rebellion, there were many elegant people in Bianliang City who enjoyed the snow and drank.

Not far from the palace, there is a mansion, and the plaque at the door is the word "Zhao". That's right, this is the palace of the inspector before the official Zhao Kuangyin ascended the throne, and now it is the residence of the emperor's younger brother Zhao Guangyi.

As for the plaque at the door, it can only continue to be the simple word "Zhao Mansion". Zhao Guangyi's current identity is very special, as the younger brother of the official family, the identity of the emperor's younger brother is extremely noble, but at the moment he does not have any title. There is no official position except for the Marquis of Ouchi, so the name of this mansion is inevitably low-key.

However, no one dared to despise this mansion, the royal brother has a noble status, and according to convention, it is likely that he will be crowned king in the future. In addition to the high-spirited Zhao Guangyi, the hostess of the palace is also noble, in addition to the identity of the queen mother's daughter-in-law and quasi-princess, Ben is also noble.

The sixth daughter of Fu Yanqing, the king of Wei, and Fu Rong, the sister of the two Fu queens in the previous week, are now arranging in the warm pavilion.

The husband came, and the husband and wife were quite happy to drink tea together, but ...... Fu Rong found that her husband's interest didn't seem to be very high, and sometimes she was even a little absent-minded, and she didn't know what she was thinking when she looked at the snowflakes outside the window. In short, the mind is not on yourself.

Fu Rong's mind was sensitive, and she couldn't help but think of the matter of the Li family's entry into the mansion. She is not Zhao Guangyi's original partner, but the original wife's wife Yin's death.

Although it was a second marriage, the Wei Wangfu didn't care, and the Fu and Zhao families at that time were also a good match. After marriage, the relationship between the couple is also harmonious, and it is somewhat due to the power of the mother's family.

It's a pity that after the Chen Qiao Mutiny, the Zhao family became a royal family, and the Fu family somewhat declined. Inadvertently, Fu Rong felt that her status and influence were declining, especially the delay in giving birth to a son, which made her even more worried.

Yesterday, the queen mother invited her into the palace, saying that the official family took a fancy to the daughter of Li Ying, the defense envoy of Qianzhou, and called her virtuous and virtuous, and wanted to marry her husband as a side room.

Although it is common for princes and nobles to marry concubines in the side room, Fu Rong is still a little unhappy and worried in her heart. There is political significance behind the royal marriage, and this time, in addition to wooing Li Ying, there is no intention of beware of suppressing the Fu family. In the future, in this Zhao Mansion, he will not be alone.

Although he is the main room of his wife, far above the Li family, he ...... That Li is only seventeen years old, and when he heard that he was born as beautiful as a flower, and his husband is also a person who loves beauty, when the time comes, he will ......

The most important thing is that he has no heirs for a long time, in case Mr. Li has a son, and there is the support of the official family behind him, then his position is not in jeopardy? Fu Rong couldn't help but be a little worried.

Alas! Fu Rong sighed secretly in her heart, and her desire to enjoy the snow and tea was completely gone. I thought that my husband would become the emperor's younger brother, and I would be a princess in the future, and I could be glorious, but if I think about it carefully...... Is Fuhua Ronghua really that important to women? Having a husband who cherishes and loves each other is the happiest.

Several sisters of the Fu family are all married well, all of them are noble people, but how many are happy? The eldest sister is the queen but she died early; The second sister is also the queen, but now she lives in the West Palace, and there is no daylight; ...... yourself, too

Only one of the remaining little sisters, Fu Li, has not yet married, so I hope she can marry as she wishes. Then Zhao Zheng is very good, the most rare thing is that they are happy. It's a pity that my father and the brothers feel that Zhao Zheng's status is low, and they are quite worried. Why care? After feeling it firsthand, Fu Rong planned to find an opportunity to persuade her father, maybe she couldn't get it, but she sincerely hoped that her sister could be happy.

However, Zhao Zheng is deeply appreciated and reused by the official family, will it change after rising step by step? Looking at her husband with cold eyes and wandering outside the window, Fu Rong couldn't help but be a little worried.

……

Zhao Guangyi was absent-minded, but inadvertently he had a "heart" with his wife, and he was also thinking about Zhao Zheng in his heart, and he was also worried that people would become this eternal proposition, but the direction of his worries was slightly different from Fu Rong!

The Imperial City Envoy, this seemingly low-key but extremely important position fell to him, not himself...... Of course, the spy errand is incompatible with the identity of the emperor's brother, and Zhao Guangyi also knows that this is not his starting point. But when Zhao Zheng stepped into that position, he still felt uncomfortable.

Five sons!

When he heard this title, he was ...... Brother Huang, has he made up his mind? Gorou has become the fifth son, and I don't know what will happen in the future......

In this world, the surname is Zhao, and it is enough to have his own brothers, so why let others be involved? One Zhao Zeping is enough, so why bother with another Zhao Wulang?

He was still so good, and in less than a day, he made progress in the clueless assassination case, which is really impressive.

Although the affairs of Luzhou and Jiangnan are wonderful, after all, they are thousands of miles away, and not many people know about them. This time, it is in Bianliang, in the capital, it must be well known, and the name of the fifth prince must be familiar.

Hmph, Zhao Guangyi snorted coldly, he couldn't tell why he was so nervous. Especially when his wife talked to herself about Zhao Zheng and her sister-in-law Fu Li, she trembled again for no reason.

It was snowing, the weather was getting cold, and Zhao Guangyi hurriedly found a step for himself. Turn around and pick up a cup of hot tea and drink it all. It is full of warmth, fragrant and pleasant, and completely different from the heavy tea soup with various flavorings in the past, and the taste is very good.

"Madame's skill in cooking tea has improved!" Zhao Guangyi chuckled and praised, he knew that this was a technique that his wife learned from his sister-in-law Fu Li, but he didn't know who the sister-in-law was taught by...... (To be continued......)
