Chapter 1535: Zhao Ling returns to Lin'an and then to Chengdu
Zhao Bogui's official position was actually a favor. However, he was calm by nature, and Zhao Shen had been in the palace since he was a child. He also knew why. Therefore, although he was not in the palace, he had always been cautious, lest he would be punished by himself. Zhao Shen caused trouble.
Even after becoming an official and being sent abroad, he was still diligent and conscientious.
Promoting water conservancy and redressing injustice... At least during his tenure in Taizhou, his political achievements were quite impressive!
Zhao Shen was the second son of Zhao Zicheng, and his original name was Zhao Bocong! After entering the palace, he changed his name to Zhao Yuan in order to distinguish himself from his family. Later, Zhao Gou gave him the name Zhao Wei, and he changed his name to Zhao Shen again when he was appointed crown prince.
Zhao Ling is the only daughter of Zhao Zicheng and the Zhang family! As for this sister, both brothers, Zhao Bogui and Zhao Shen, are extremely fond of this sister. However, Zhao Ling was still young when Zhao Boguien joined the official position, and Zhao Ling was still young when Zhao Boguien became an official. Later, Zhao Shen entered the palace, and Zhao Ling stayed with Zhao Shen in the palace for a long time. Therefore, Zhao Ling felt less intimate and more awe-inspiring towards this eldest brother.
But Zhao Ling's feelings for his mother, Zhang, are a bit complicated!
Although she is her biological mother and a young girl, I don't know whether it is due to preference for sons over daughters or for other reasons, so there is always a certain degree of closeness between mother and daughter.
In fact, Zhao Ling didn't understand, but this was Zhang's cleverness.
The second child of the family entered the palace and gradually became the emperor of the Song Dynasty. Although he was no longer his son in name, the lineage of King Xiu'an Xi would naturally be favored in the future! Although she was a princess, since Zhao Zicheng After death, I am not suitable to take the lead at all, let alone be close to my second son!
The second child is already the emperor, so he will be safe in protecting his sister in the future. If she is too close to Zhao Ling, it will create an additional barrier between Zhao Ling and the palace.
So in these years, she has not paid much attention to the promotion of her eldest son. She has followed the etiquette of a monarch and her second son, and she has been diligent in teaching but rarely getting close to her younger daughter! It can be said that for the sake of this family, she, a widowed princess, has been ruined. Heart.
Zhao Gou was naturally extremely satisfied with this. In addition, Zhao Shen was usually very filial to him, which made his impression of Zhao Bogui and Zhao Ling much better!
Getting back to the topic, after receiving the news, Shen Tang naturally did not dare to delay, and even asked his subordinates to personally escort Zhao Ling back to Lin'an City.
To the south of Lin'an City, a mighty team was waiting to go south! On the side of the carriage, Shen Tang gently hugged Zhao Ling.
"Ling'er, after returning to Lin'an, don't be too sad! The princess is a blessed person, maybe she is just slightly sick! You need to take care of yourself, don't let me worry!"
Zhao Ling nodded vigorously, but the tears in her eyes couldn't help but fall one after another! Naturally, she didn't want to leave Shen Tang's side, but she couldn't be an unfilial daughter!
"Brother Shen, you have to think about Ling'er!"
Shen Tang nodded vigorously, "Definitely!"
After saying that, Shen Tang leaned forward slightly and kissed Zhao Ling forcefully! Zhao Ling was startled, and then responded eagerly and shyly!
Until he was exhausted, Shen Tang whispered in Zhao Ling's ear, "Ling'er, when I go to Chengdu, I will carefully manage Tubo! When I conquer a large piece of land in Tubo, I will report it to Your Majesty and discuss with him The Kingdom of Jin has replaced my hometown of the Song Dynasty! Your Majesty allows me to be crowned king, but I will not ask for this so-called canonization.
At that time, I will use this great achievement to exchange with Your Majesty the opportunity to marry Ling'er!"
"Ling'er treats me sincerely, and I, Shen Tang, will never let Ling'er down!"
"Brother Shen!"
Zhao Ling's shining eyes were fixed on Shen Tang's face. Only now did she know that her beloved Shen Lang was working hard for their future!
"Ling'er is waiting for Brother Shen to propose marriage to the emperor!"
The farewell was finally over. Shen Tang comforted Zhao Ling and got on the carriage, then followed him on horseback for dozens of miles. He didn't say goodbye until he reached the border of Sizhou.
Seeing the car frame slowly disappearing from his sight, Shen Tang couldn't help but sigh in his heart! Parting has been the most painful thing since ancient times, but this cannot be changed by human power.
After bidding farewell to Zhao Ling, Shen Tang returned home and wasted a few days. Then, news came from Lin'an again that Mr. Zhang had passed away!
Frightened, Shen Tang and the girls from Xiang Ling hurriedly wrote a letter of comfort to Zhao Ling! After all, Shen Tang was a foreign minister at this time, so even if he went to Lin'an, he might not be able to see Zhao Ling.
After Zhang's death, Zhao Bogui also resigned and returned home to observe his filial piety! Although Zhao Shen was his own son, the monarch and his ministers were now different! In grief, Zhao Shen knelt down to worship the Supreme Emperor Zhao Gou and cried out that he could wear adult clothes in the palace.
Zhao Gou appreciated Zhao Shen's filial piety and agreed. He also allowed Zhao Shen to be his biological mother, Zhang, who would stay out of court and observe mourning for twenty-seven days.
As for the brothers Zhao Bogui and Zhao Ling, they naturally have to observe mourning for three years! However, it is said to be three years, but it is actually twenty-seven months. Because it spans three years, it is called three years of observing mourning.
It is precisely because of this reason that Shen Tang's trip to Chengdu was postponed to mid-April!
After Zhao Shen returned to the throne, he once again issued an order to urge Shen Tang to go westward! After all, Shen Tang had already rested for half a year since returning to Lin'an!
Naturally, Shen Tang would not delay any longer. After writing to Zhao Ling again, he took all his family members with him and left Lianli City in a mighty manner and rushed to Chengdu Mansion to take up his post.
Since there were family members accompanying them, it was naturally better to take the water route! Therefore, Shen Tang and others still went to Haizhou first, and then boarded the ship from Haizhou.
This trip to the west can be said to be full of people!
There were thirty or fifty people including the female relatives, maids, nuns, servants, etc. in the family! All the Beiwei troops who went to escort Zhao Ling and Yue Lin also returned to escort Shen Tang westward, except for In addition, there are hundreds of personal guards led by Youfu.
Fu Fu led his soldiers and horses around Kunshan, and with Yue Lin's care, everything went smoothly! Then, Yue Lin asked the soldiers for merit!
The rebellion in the White Lotus Society was finally put down, and all the rebel leaders died in the "chaos". Both Zhao Shen and the court were extremely satisfied with this result, plus the captured things sent by Yue Lin. , actually had two to three million in property, so Zhao Shen's reward was also very generous.
You Fu took advantage of the opportunity and was directly promoted to the rank of commander of any army! Then Liu Gong moved around in the court and transferred You Fu to the Changning Army on Tongchuan Prefecture Road!
Changning Army is located in the southwest of Luzhou, which is where Shen Tang passes, so they merged and headed west!
Although Mr. Shao was reluctant and worried about his son, he also knew that this was his son's good fortune and future. Therefore, after some encouragement, he let his son go.
April 15th! Facing the slightly cool sea breeze, Shen Tang and his party all boarded the long-awaited ship!
The strong southeast wind blew, and the big ship set sail, slowly heading towards the distant Chengdu...
