Chapter 15 Zhuge Divine Candidates
In the Great Song Palace, the little emperor Zhao Xu stayed in his palace all day, he looked at the three decrees in front of him, and his heart was both happy and worried, as long as he covered the real dragon jade seal, then from tomorrow's last dynasty, he would be pro-government.
The first decree was that the Empress Dowager Gao took Wang Anshi's official position and asked him to go home to pay tribute, because Wang Anshi worked hard and worked hard, and it was time to retire and recuperate. The second decree was directed at Sima Guang, who was also old and infirm, and returned to his hometown, but what is puzzling is that Sima Guang's home was placed in Changzhou, Jiangsu, instead of Xia County, Shaanxi. The third decree is a reward for Su Shi, a scholar of Fenglong Tuge University, and a Taishou of Hangzhou.
Zhao Xu frowned, to be honest, he was not satisfied with these three wills, and he agreed to let Sima Guang get out of the center of the imperial court, but why let him go to Changzhou, although it did not affect him, it was still acceptable. But he was reluctant to let Wang Anshi retire and return to his hometown, after all, in the imperial court, Wang Anshi supported his reform, and if he wanted to leave, wouldn't he be isolated. What's more, to add an official to Su Shi and make him the Taishou of Hangzhou, this is simply cutting his meat, how can such an important grain base be handed over to an official who does not trust him, although the other party is loyal to the Great Song Dynasty.
Zhao Xu's face struggled to look at it again, and suddenly made up his mind, he picked up the jade seal and stamped it, he agreed to the three wills, at present, the more important thing is to be pro-government, and only with great power can he do what he wants. And he felt that as long as he was in power, Wang Anshi could still recruit back to the imperial court, and as for Sima Guang and Su Shi, they would really go to support the elderly.
"Minister, Zhuge Zheng and I see the Empress Dowager, may the Empress Dowager be a thousand years old. "A clear old man, his weather-beaten face has already increased a lot of wrinkles, but on the whole he still looks young. He stood there, dressed in a black and white robe, chic and indifferent.
Empress Dowager Gao motioned for him to be excused, and said to the palace maid beside her. "Go, give God a seat. ”
Zhuge Zheng's eyes swept over the chair of the palace maid An Lai, nodded and said to the Gao family, "Empress Dowager Xie." He sat down generously, but only a little bit as a sign of respect.
As soon as Gao Hou raised her hand, another palace maid beside her came with a small tray, only to see a bright red letter placed on it, Zhuge Zheng's eyes were instantly solemn, and his experience told him that it was blood.
The small tray was placed in front of Zhuge Zheng, and the red fold was obviously particularly dazzling. Shenhou didn't pick it up at the first time. Instead, he didn't understand and asked, "Empress Dowager Gao, what is this?"
Gao Hou signaled, Zhuge Zheng and I picked up the fold, but he still didn't open it. At this time, Gao Hou waved his hand and retreated from everyone present, leaving no one to serve, "This letter is the future of my Great Song Dynasty." ”
Zhuge Zheng's face turned pale, obviously not expecting this answer. His brow furrowed, and he was about to retort. Who knew that the Empress Gao didn't give him a chance, "Qin Tianjian Zhu Bitang exchanged his life for the future, and he died." ”
Zhuge Shenhou almost didn't hold the letter. He asked in surprise, "Lord Zhu is dead?" how could it be, he ......" Gao Hou interrupted him, "It's true." Lord Zhu used his life to see through the future and seek the national fortune of my Great Song Dynasty, and this letter is the most difficult way for him to give me. ”
Zhuge Shenhou understood. This matter must be related to the changes in heaven and earth some time ago, he knows Zhu Bitang, although the official position is not high, but the skill of astrological divination is unmatched in the Great Song Dynasty, and his second senior brother Xu Xiaoyi can compare with it. Gao Hou saw that he seemed to understand something, and said, "There are only two things to find you, the first thing is to protect this performance, and it must not fall into anyone's hands." No matter who it is, even if it's the emperor and the mourners of the day. ”
The stakes are too big, Zhuge Zheng and I hesitated, "Empress Dowager, since this is the case, why not destroy it." Empress Gao sneered, she stared at Zhuge Shenhou, and only spoke for a while, "I thought about it, but I can't." The reason is simple, I want you to give it to one person, which is the second thing I said. ”
Zhuge Zheng's expression was serious, and he nodded in agreement, "Chen understands." But who is this person?" Gao Hou looked at him and flashed with relief, "Zhuge Zhengme, you are one of the people with the highest martial arts in today's martial arts, so I can only trust you." She looked at him and said lastly, "This person's name is Pan Dao." Martial arts knights, but where exactly is it, what kind of person it is, you need to find it yourself. ”
"Minister, obey the order. "Zhuge Zheng I don't have too much nonsense, he has always been concise, and smart people don't need to be too straightforward. Gao Hou thought about it, her tone was a little tired, "After the last time, the old body has something to ask for, and I hope that God will agree." ”
Zhuge Zheng and I hurriedly got up, and he said respectfully, "The minister doesn't dare, although the queen mother has something to order, the minister will do his best." The spirit of the Empress Gao condensed, and the coercion of the momentum exploded, "If one day, the Great Song Dynasty changes, you have to protect the princess Zhao Jiyue and send her to Pan Dao's side safely." The six doors must be fully forced, and there must be no mistakes, can it be done?"
Zhuge Zheng and I knelt on the ground, and he swore, "The minister understands. Gao Hou said, "Go ahead." Remember the words of the mourners, and your promises. Her energy weakened in an instant.
The sky has become a little overcast, the wind is blowing, and the breath of autumn is always so charming. At this time, a palace maid ran in, and she blessed and said, "Back to the Empress Dowager, Her Royal Highness the princess has come down." ”
Gao Hou's spirit instantly became much more energetic, "Quick, please let her in." Sure enough, Princess Zhao Jiyue was dressed in red, and a peerless girl walked in slowly, her young face could already see the beauty of the future, she looked a little weak, as if a gust of wind could blow her down, "Grandma, granddaughter has come to see you." ”
"You girl, why do you still run around if you are not in good health, why do you want to come to me if you are not in good health. Gao Hou's words were full of pampering, and she expected more of the princess than anyone else. Gao Hou beckoned and motioned for her to come to the bedside.
Zhao Jiyue walked to the side of the highest, and she sat beside her, like a girl next door. "Grandma, I miss you. Gao Hou smiled, she touched her hair, "You little grandson, you can really talk." ”
"Minister, Zhuge is seeing Her Royal Highness the Princess. His eyes swept over Zhao Jiyue, and he knew that this girl was the person he would protect in the future. Zhao Jiyue looked at him and said quickly, "Lord Zhuge , please get up quickly." Zhuge Zhengi got up, he looked at the girl in front of him again, and suddenly, he felt that a phoenix was about to spread its wings and fly high.
Zhuge Zheng's face was stunned, and when he looked at it again, he didn't see anything, but that feeling, he knew that he would never be wrong. Otherwise, why protect this princess alone.
Could it be that the princess has something to do with the twists and turns?
Empress Dowager Gao looked at Zhuge Zhengme, and she said quietly, "I thought it would take a while for you to meet, but I didn't expect that God would help you, so it's good for you to get to know each other." ”
Zhao Jiyue doesn't know why, when will the princess of the Great Song Dynasty also know the important ministers of the court. But she still saluted, "Lord Zhuge is good." "Princess, don't be polite. You are seriously ill at the beginning, and you should cultivate well. "Zhuge is talking to me, he also knows the root of Zhao Jiyue's illness, but he doesn't know how her illness was successfully treated.
Gao Hou's expression was solemn, she naturally knew what the other party was thinking, and she didn't want to hide it, she looked at Zhuge Zhengme and said, "There is the answer you want in the fold, if you want to understand, you must go to investigate, but you also have to understand that once you read it, there is no turning back." And remember to keep it secret. Zhuge Zheng nodded to me, and didn't say anything, no matter what the reason, he would do his best. (To be continued......)
