Chapter 178: Birthday Feast (5)
Emperor Zhengde's eyes were already squinting when he smiled at this time, and when Li Quanshou finished saying this, he immediately beckoned, and then said in his mouth: "Little Fourteen is really amazing, I don't see you for a few days and I know how to work hard, come to sit with the emperor's grandfather above, and tell me directly what reward you want, and there is no allowed." ”
"Grandpa Huang, this is what you said, the so-called ...... You don't have any jokes, then the grandson is not welcome, I don't lack anything myself, and I only want to make the imperial grandfather happy...... It's just that the people around him are too young, and the emperor's grandfather will see if he can make him a big official, and he won't be bullied when he goes out with me. ”
Listening to his childish words, the ministers in the hall all smiled at the corners of their mouths, but none of them took it seriously, and they all said in their hearts, this prince really doesn't lack anything, but at this time, he still needs to ask for officials for the people around him? At this time in the capital, as long as the signboard of King Jing's Mansion is reported, no one dares to step forward.
Emperor Zhengde's smile remained unchanged, but he grabbed Li Quanshou who came up with one hand, let him sit beside him, and asked casually: "Eh, what kind of person made you so attentive to ask for officials to come to the imperial grandfather?" ”
Li Quanshou held his little head high, and the smile on his face was extremely bright, "Who else can there be?" This person's grandfather also knows Zhao Shibei, who beat those warriors of the Jin Kingdom during the day, and my father and mother don't have the time to accompany me now, but this Zhao Shi and his grandson are very close to each other...... Grandpa Huang, you make him a big official, and you don't need to do anything, well, it's better to be the third level of the official, then it will be majestic. ”
His gag made Emperor Zhengde and the Empress laugh non-stop, and Emperor Zhengde said nonsense. But he saw that the eunuch who had passed the decree was already standing in the hall, Xu saw that the atmosphere in the hall was thick, and did not immediately step forward to reply to the decree, so he said: "Xuan Zhaoshi and others enter the palace, you all take a good look at whether this year's martial champion is worthy of his name......
Zhao Shi and his party were introduced into the main hall, each with different expressions, but their faces were full of solemnity. Zhao Shi and the other three took the lead and fell to the ground, and after the mountain shouted long live, Emperor Zhengde spoke flatly, and everyone stood up in turn, but none of them dared to look up at the emperor above.
Zhao Shi's eyes were only swept slightly, the lights in the hall were bright, the day was similar, and the spirit of Emperor Zhengde on the ground seemed to be much better than during the day. The surrounding court officials didn't know each other, and they didn't have time to take a closer look, so they lowered their heads after that.
Next, Emperor Zhengde said some gentle words, and there was not much new in the ears of the people around him, but some to serve the country. Words such as should be honest and do things, this is also the passing scene of every court training, even some of them have heard such words back then.
But later, Emperor Zhengde changed his mind. He smiled and said, "Zhao Shi, you're only fourteen years old this year, right?" ”
Seeing that Zhao Shi glanced up in amazement, and then nodded yes, the old emperor smiled and continued: "I don't know if there is a marriage match?" ”
His Royal Highness and the ministers were all surprised, could it be that His Majesty still planned to recruit a son-in-law? This is something that has never happened since the dynasty, and there were many good stories about the princess of the champion in the previous dynasty, but in today's Daqin, there are not many talents. If you are a princess, that is, a concubine, you will be honored, but I am afraid that there is no room for improvement in this life, isn't it a waste of good talents? Therefore, the emperors of the past dynasties have reused the champions of civil and military affairs, and this section has also intentionally or unintentionally ignored the past, although there is no clear provision, but conventionally there has never been an emperor who has forced a princess out. But these people were surprised in their hearts. But most of them also showed envy, and they could be asked about these by the emperor. Regardless of the result, it will be a great glory after that......
Zhao Shi is only the second time to see this emperor, although his heart is not as trembling as others, but it is not easy, although the other party's words are gentle, but there is always a pressure that makes people have to bow their heads in it, that is, people like him who have experienced a hundred battles and have a tough heart are no exception.
After a deep groan, he raised his head and looked directly at the old emperor in front of him, who had been reigning for twenty-nine years, and there were some rudeness in his actions, but no one reprimanded him, even the Emperor Zhengde who was present did not care, but instead smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said, "You don't need to be restrained, I just ask casually, and it doesn't hurt to say it directly." ”
"Xiaochen was married a few years ago, and he is the daughter of the Fan family in Gongyi County." He was not very willing to do this, but he couldn't hide it here and now, so he had to say it directly.
As soon as he said this, some people next to him were really relieved, if this majesty really had the intention of letting the princess marry, they would have to try their best to dissuade them, so that they didn't have to bother, but some people sighed in their hearts that this rare opportunity was wasted by the young man in front of them.
However, the smile on Emperor Zhengde's face was still undiminished, and he turned back to the queen beside him and said with a smile: "This Zhao Shi talent is rare, but it is not only Xuan Jin's eyesight, you see, even the doll is set on the ground." ”
The queen shook her head and smiled, but she was also a little surprised in her heart, she knew her Majesty's temperament, and she was really different from others about this young man, but this was not the time to study the reasons in detail, so she replied, "Isn't Your Majesty really thinking of marrying a princess?" Are you disappointed now? ”
"It is difficult for royal women to marry, this has been the case since ancient times, and there is no way for me here." Emperor Zhengde said with a smile, he was indeed a little disappointed in his heart, he didn't really want to marry the princess, but this Zhao Shi was too young, and he was from a cold family, and there were so many people in the Yulin Army, which one didn't have some background? Can this teenager hold it down? This is also where he has always had some concerns, if Zhao Shi said that he had no good companion at this time, he would immediately be able to point to one, marrying is often the first step for the children of the poor family, with Olympic aid, many things will be simpler after that, right? But Zhao Shi's words have been spoken, and there is no room for turning around, and no emperor can do anything to ruin people's marriages in public.
Emperor Zhengde turned his head at this time, but he didn't speak to Zhao Shi alone, and his voice was much higher, "You and others are all Great Qin talents, and you should be loyal in the future...... Today, the left guard of Yulin is erosive, the officers and soldiers are gamblers, and they are unbearable to drive, I edict you to wait for the left guard of Yulin to rectify military discipline, you can do as much as you want, and I will call the shot......s for you."
Speaking of this, he waved his hand towards Lu Jian, who had been waiting for a long time in His Royal Highness, and did not dare to slack off at this time, so he quickly stood up, unfolded the holy decree that had already been prepared, and read it out loud, "In the twenty-ninth year of the special edict Zhengde, Zhao Shi, the martial champion, was the deputy commander of the Yulin Left Guard, and the temporary commander of the position, and the male title of Jin Gongyi County, hoping that he could be loyal to the country and live up to the sacred heart......
In the twenty-ninth year of Zhao Zhengde, Zhang Fengju was the ...... of the first battalion of Yulin Left Guard. ”
Li Xuanzhi sat next to him for a long time, he had been smiling and watching before, and he didn't have any words, but at this time, his eyes flickered, and he glanced at a red-robed official below, that person was always paying attention to this side, his face was also tense, and he was obviously nervous in his heart. He can't afford to back down now.
After straightening the robe on his body, after Lu Jian finished reciting the holy decree, before Zhao Shi and the others thanked him, he stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be ......."
This matter has already been decided, the holy decree has been read out, but this person jumped out, many important ministers of the court have secretly said in their hearts, looking for death, everyone looked at the reckless person, but it was Zhou Xian, the servant of the Imperial History Tower, and then looked at the color on the face of the old man Wang in the imperial history, it was beautiful for a while, blue and white, but this Zhou Xian was his subordinate, and he didn't even say hello in advance, looking at the face of Emperor Zhengde, his face sank instantly, and the beads of sweat of Lord Wang also fell involuntarily, stared at this guy who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and wanted to go up and kick him to death.
Zhou Xian was also out of the way today, and he didn't look at the looks of the people around him, and when he came to the main hall, he said: "Your Majesty, Yulin Zuowei is the imperial guard, what virtue does Zhao Shi and others have to hold this important position?"
Not to mention anything else, only Zhao Shi is just fourteen years old, he is a little brave, how can his prestige convince the public? The palace is important, and the safety of His Majesty is at stake, how can he be entrusted to such a person? There is no such precedent to be found, please think twice. ”^-^^-^
