The most rare thing between husband and wife is the understanding of each other. Zhao Heng immediately took Liu E's hand and praised softly, "You really know me. The arm I want to prepare for our child is exactly this person!"
However, Liu E knew very well how to control her sense of proportion, and her eyes immediately turned into two crescent moons when she smiled, "The official family has mentioned him almost every day in the past half month. I just said that Wang Shu and Chen Yaozi are a little too old. If I still have
I didn’t expect it to be him, wouldn’t he have failed the officials’ daily precepts and deeds?”
"So, it's my teachings that are better?" Zhao Heng felt relieved and asked with a deliberate smile.
"Of course, the official's family has taught her well. Even if the concubine is a piece of wood, she will develop some wisdom after being carved by the official's family for a long time!" Liu E praised her husband, but she was not stingy and her angle was absolutely novel.
.
"If you were wood, I'm afraid most of the civil servants and generals in the court would be clay sculptures!" After hearing this, Zhao Heng immediately smiled and shook his head.
"Guan family, has someone made you angry again? Ignore them. You will slowly find out the smart ones and replace the stupid ones!" Liu E was keenly aware that Zhao Heng's words were referring to something, and shook the other party's hand.
Arms, comforting softly, "Besides, officials are wise and powerful, so to be your minister, you don't need to be too smart, just be loyal!"
"That's true, as long as they are loyal. It doesn't matter if they are a little stupid!" Zhao Heng felt happy again when he was told that, and nodded with a smile, "What's more, a new generation replaces the old ones. I always have the opportunity to replace the stupid ones.
Those who are loyal and not loyal enough will be expelled from the court one by one."
"Officials don't have to worry, just take it step by step." Liu E took over the conversation and reminded with a smile, "After all, many people have to endure more than half of their lives to get to the court. You must leave a thought for other local officials.
.”
"Yes, if it wasn't to leave a thought for other ministers, I would have ordered them to be driven away!" Zhao Hengshen took Liu E's words seriously and nodded with a smile.
Then, he quickly shook his head and said, "Okay, let's not mention this. The Ding Wei you recommended to me last time is indeed a capable person. They cooperated with Han Tixing tacitly, and the Chunyang Sect rebels on Jingdong East Road have been defeated.
The two of them have joined forces to plow the court and clear out the holes. I am going to transfer Wang Qinruo back to the court in a few days and hand over the entire Jingdong East Road to Ding Wei."
"It's because the officials know how to make good use of people, but I am short-sighted. At that time, I just wanted to repay the favor!" Liu E refused to take credit, smiled and shook her head gently. Then, she looked at Zhao Heng's face and reminded her softly again, "However,
Is it too soon for the officials to let Ding Wei take charge of Jingdong East Road? He was just a fourth-grade transfer envoy..."
"Don't forget, he also has the fictitious title of a direct bachelor of the Privy Council. He was originally a third-grade official! Taking charge of Jingdong East Road and serving as the economic and strategic pacifier is just a change from fictitious to real." Zhao Heng had already considered this.
Layer, added with a smile, "What's more, the contributions he and Han Tixing have made are obvious to all the civil and military officials of the dynasty."
"Then, I'm worried too much!" Liu E had already predicted in her heart that Ding Wei would definitely jump over the dragon's gate, but she still pretended to be modest." But she didn't know that Jingdong East Road had just experienced a scene.
In the chaos, Ding Wei succeeded Wang Qinruo. If he has the ability, he can bring the place from chaos to order as soon as possible. "
"I will keep Han Qing there and continue to help him." Zhao Heng also knows how to use people well, and gave the best answer with a smile. "With Han Qing's reputation for killing and Ding Wei's resourcefulness, there is no place like this."
It is difficult to restore the peace of the past."
"The officials won't recall Han Qing?" Liu E was greatly surprised and blurted out her words of inquiry, "Didn't you just say that you wanted to train him to be the arm of the children? This time, his achievements are not inferior to those of Ding.
It means..."
"He was promoted too quickly. If he is as good as Lin Feng, he will be destroyed. If I promote him to another official position, it may not be a good thing for him." It is rare for him to tell his true thoughts to others. Zhao Heng smiled.
, explained patiently, "At this time, you must suppress him so that he can move more steadily in the future. In addition, the way to employ people cannot be just to distinguish rewards and punishments. You must let him understand that kindness comes from the royal family. Otherwise,
I’m afraid that it will be difficult for him to show respect to me and our children in the future.”
"Yes, I understand. The more beautiful the jade is, the more it needs to be carved." Liu E understood Zhao Heng's meaning instantly and nodded solemnly.
Zhao Heng suddenly found a confidant in his heart, so he added with a smile: "My father appreciated Kou Zhun so much back then, so didn't he deliberately let him practice outside for several years? Even after he became a political advisor, he found him again.
The excuse made him go through a lot of ups and downs."
"Well, you can't just turn a blind eye to his merits. Otherwise, it will be difficult for Ding Wei to face him day and night." Liu E thought deeper and reminded hesitantly.
"I won't promote him to an official position, but I can promote him to a knighthood and then give him some other compensation. In this way, he will not feel that I am unfair in my dealings, and Ding Wei will not feel that he has robbed him of his achievements.
." In terms of finding balance, Zhao Heng has long been familiar with the road and once again gave the answer with a smile.
Liu E's eyes flickered, and her brain was like a seedling absorbing nectar, absorbing the skills of controlling courtiers that Zhao Heng inadvertently taught her. Then she smiled and waved her hand, "You can also be kind to his family. As the saying goes, success is not as good as the title.
Wife Yinzi. He doesn’t have children yet, but he is already engaged. The official can give his wife another imperial edict and let them get married according to the edict."
"How do you know so clearly?" Zhao Heng was very curious and couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"It has been spread throughout the palace and outside the palace. The most talked about among the people are these stories of heroes and beauties." Liu E responded truthfully without any scruples and smiled. Then she clapped her hands gently again and said, "No, sir.
The concubine also forgot to mention that when he was on the Yongxing military road, he also earned a beautiful concubine. The official family simply issued a royal decree and let him embrace her! In this way, although he was not promoted, he was definitely more grateful to the official.
The kindness of family!”
"Smart, Qingqing almost thought of going with me. In the past few days, Han Guogui asked me for mercy through Liu Chenggui, just to ask for a royal decree for his grandson-in-law. I simply gave him double the amount, and then asked him to carry the imperial edict.
He Gaoming, go to Qingzhou to marry his grandson! Let’s see if their family will consider my interests!”
"The official sage!" Liu E has been receiving gifts from Han Qing through Ding Wei's channels recently, and of course she has to praise Zhao Heng's decision.
"Qingqing and I always have a good understanding of each other!" Zhao Heng felt relieved in his heart. He took Liu E's hand and nodded repeatedly.
After saying that, he deliberately frowned and sighed in a low voice, "Oh, you and I are both so smart. In the future, won't our children be better than others? The pressure on me is great. There is Taizu Taizong in front of me, and there is Taizu Taizong in the back.
There will be another emperor who will be better than Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. I am caught in the middle. It is not easy to leave a name in history!"
After Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, Li Zhi, Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, actually did quite well. However, because there was another Emperor Xuanzong later, when people mentioned the Tang Dynasty, they would only mention the rule of Zhenguan and the prosperous Kaiyuan era. Few people knew that Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty was still on the throne.
At that time, it first pacified Goguryeo and then pushed the western border to ancient Persia! (Note, the Tang Dynasty briefly established the Persian Protectorate in ancient Persia. It was later abandoned because the road was too far.)
Zhao Heng was in a happy mood today. He compared Tang Xuanzong to the child who was about to be born, and compared himself to Li Zhi. It was originally a joke with Liu E. However, when the latter heard this, his face immediately became nervous, "official family, official family
Let it go. I will definitely teach our child well and let him use his intelligence in the right place. When things happen, filial piety comes first!"
"You, what are you thinking about in this little head all day long!" Zhao Heng immediately understood that Liu E had misunderstood what he meant, lowered his head, and gently pressed his forehead against his forehead, "Don't worry, I won't be jealous of my son.
! If he can surpass me and surpass his grandfather, I will definitely be happy before it is too late!"
"Guan family——" Liu E's face suddenly turned red as if on fire, but she didn't feel guilty because she misunderstood Zhao Heng.
"Don't move, I will punish you, judge my belly with a villain's heart!" Zhao Heng lowered his head unceremoniously and took Liu E's raised flaming red lips in his mouth.
Liu E greeted each other tactfully, and the couple were like honey mixed with oil. However, they still remembered that this was the Hall of Wende, and thought about the fetus in their belly. After a moment of tenderness, they tasted it. Then they hugged each other.
Sit with your neck crossed.
"My concubine, there is a palace maid brought from the nunnery, her surname is Li, she is a junior official. She has a clean family background, good looks, and is well-educated and sensible, and knows how to advance and retreat..." Knowing that Zhao Heng was not enjoying himself to the fullest, Liu E couldn't resist her reluctance.
Suggest in a low voice.
This is another smart point of hers. Since she is pregnant with a child, she cannot engage in marital affairs. And throughout the ages, I have never heard of an emperor guarding his wife for a certain concubine, so instead of taking advantage of her rivals in the palace,
, it is better to recommend a confidant who knows the basics.
"Are you talking about Li E?" Zhao Heng's eyes immediately flashed with the appearance of a timid girl, and she shook her head with a smile, "That's all, she is far behind you. I will give you a hug and I will be satisfied!"
Regardless of whether these words were sincere or just to make people happy, Liu E felt a warm feeling in her heart. Lying her face next to Zhao Heng's ear, she added in a low voice, "I hope that the official family can visit me more often."
There were several times there, but I didn’t want to, and I got the reputation of being jealous. So, the officials should take her in! In this way, I can also..."
Only halfway through the words, Zhao Heng was already excited. Just as he was about to agree, Liu Chenggui suddenly called out from outside the palace, "Guan family, I just received a secret report from Dingzhou, Hebei Province."
, requesting an interview.”
"Where?" Zhao Heng was shocked, and all the thoughts in his heart disappeared. He gently pushed Liu E away, and at the same time shouted loudly, "Bring it over quickly. I have already finished my midnight snack with Liu Zhaoyi!"
"Yes!" Liu Chenggui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pushed open the palace door, tried to stay calm, and slowly walked towards the Imperial Book Case, "The news has not been verified in Dingzhou, Hebei Province, so your Majesty does not need to worry, maybe it will be confirmed early tomorrow morning.
This news is spread through false rumors!"
It was okay if he didn't explain, but when he did, Zhao Heng became even more confused. He grabbed the secret report and whispered, "Say, I'm listening. What happened to Dingzhou? Did the Liao army go south again? I remember, then
Bian just replenished a batch of fire and thunder bombs!"
"Yes!" Knowing that Zhao Heng would be even more nervous if he didn't say anything, Liu Chenggui agreed again, trying to keep his voice steady, "Wang Jizhong, the Dingzhou observation envoy, went out hunting and was kidnapped by the Liao assassins. Then,
Under the orders of Xiao Taolin, the general manager of the Pedestrian Department in the south of the Liao Kingdom, I sneaked back into the city, cooperated with the outside, and dedicated Dingzhou to the Liao army!"
