This is not what a child should say. Zhao Zhen looked at Pang Ji with sharp eyes, but found that Pang Ji's expression was very confused. Zhao Zhen could naturally tell whether he was really confused or fake. At this time, he just wanted to tell Concubine Shu
Come and ask if she manipulated her son.
Zhao Zhen can tolerate his son's cowardice and incompetence, but the only thing he cannot tolerate is his son being manipulated.
The imperial power of the Zhao and Song Dynasties was supreme. Even if it was a wrong order that could lead to the destruction of the country, Zhao Zhen hoped that it was his son's own words and the order was issued through his own subjective consciousness. As for the emperor's puppet, it would be more serious than the destruction of the country.
It's shameful.
The cold palace became a little hot because of Zhao Zhen's anger. Even Zou Tong, the eunuch who had always acted as the emperor's mouthpiece, felt as if there were countless ants crawling on his back, and the itching was almost unbearable.
"When the father was ill in bed, the child saw that the father was suffering from illness. Even so, the father still had to deal with national affairs all day long. Even though he could not move or speak, he still went to court, so the child thought,
I need to grow up earlier. Even if the child does something rough and imperfect, the child must do things. Even so, it is better than letting the father drag his sick body to deal with those troublesome things.
Father, if you are in good health, my son would rather learn from Yun Yue, Su Shi, or even Di Yong and become the biggest dandy in the Song Dynasty than do such things as killing Hou Tanzhi.
Father, do you know that my child actually does not like reading, nor does he like to learn the art of war, nor does he like to learn how to become a qualified emperor. If the child has the choice, the child would prefer those beautiful music and exquisite pictures.
, unique calligraphy.
The Taifu is high in the temple and can decide life and death with a single word. The Taibao has a hundred thousand troops and is invincible on the battlefield. The child likes their noble talents, but never envy them!"
Zhao Xu came to the bedside, held the emperor's hand, and complained to his father slowly, just like a commoner's child complaining that he didn't like to go to work.
An ecstatic expression appeared on Pang Ji's face. He suppressed his ecstasy and stared at Zhao Xu, wanting to hear what he would say next.
"Hou Tanzhi is just suffering from scabies. Zhao Yannian has already started to monitor the families who have contact with the Hou family. If the child says that he is not afraid of his father's anger, as long as there is any change in them, the Yulin guards assigned to him by the father will be there.
Will trample them into dust.
Taifu has taught children about this kind of thing. There are cases like this in countless memorials. Taibao teaches children to strike first regardless of whether it is right or wrong. After doing some things, we will regret it slowly. Taibao said, as long as I kill someone
Don't kill too much, everyone can benefit from it. In the Song Dynasty, there were many people vying to be officials, and as long as they were officials who passed the imperial examination, there was not much difference."
Zhao Zhen burst into tears. This was Yun Zheng's ruffian-like philosophy of governing the country. For the first time, he regretted leaving the prince to Yun Zheng to teach him.
From the first time he met Yun Zheng, Zhao Zhen found that this guy seemed to have an inexplicable sense of superiority. God knows where this sense of superiority came from. It was this feeling that made him ignore all the rules and codes of the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Zhen even suspected that this guy had never regarded himself as a true king's father.
The prince's talent is far from Yun Zheng's, but his courage is even greater.
"That's not the case!" Zou Tong quickly helped the emperor say these five words.
"Father, don't be anxious. Please speak slowly. My child is listening. Your daily life notes are already recited by me. Please tell me what you want to tell me. My child will definitely try to correct it."
"Tell me about the imperial power in your eyes!"
Zhao Xu raised his head and looked at the beautiful patterns on the caisson and said with a smile: "The five elements are about balance. Only in this way will our world be safe and sound. The same is true for imperial power. The child thinks that imperial power is the five porcelain vases in your father's hand. You
You need to keep throwing out the porcelain bottles in your hand. Each one cannot stay in your hand for a moment longer, but each porcelain bottle cannot escape your control. Let the five porcelain bottles rise and fall in your hand, never
Fall to the ground.
In short, imperial power can only be controlled, not played with!"
Pang Ji frowned and said, "What is the difference in meaning between manipulation and play?"
Zhao Xu cupped his hands and said: "The meanings are naturally very different. The farmer's tool is a hoe, the craftsman's tool is a hammer, and the soldier's tool is a sword. When it comes to our royal family, our tool is naturally the imperial power. We have
You can only respect the guy who can make you eat, how can you play with it?
In fact, we are very advantageous. Under the destiny of heaven, all the land in the world belongs to my royal family, all the officials in the world are appointed by my royal family, all the money in the world can also be said to belong to my royal family, and the army is naturally included in this.
Father, don't worry, your child has grown up."
After Zhao Zhen signaled Zou Tong to order the eunuch to lead the prince out, he looked at Pang Ji worriedly.
Pang Ji sighed and said, "I congratulate Your Majesty! The prince's knowledge has finally reached the point of challenge. As long as you get past the hurdle of ignorance, everything will be smooth sailing and everything will come naturally."
Zou Tong said on behalf of the emperor: "Why has the prince's change been so drastic? It's worrying to pretend to understand."
Pang Ji said with a smile: "When the chicks just knew they could fly, they looked like this. They saw the big tree opposite and thought they could easily fly there, but they fell off the nest just after they left the nest. It's very common!"
"This is very dangerous!"
"Of course, it takes a lot of courage for a chick to leave the nest. The prince has now left the nest and has begun to learn to fly with his own wings. At this time, Your Majesty needs to take care of himself. In any case, he must wait until the prince's wings become stronger.
The feathers should be plumper before you can let go."
"Then put the Five Cities Military and Horse Division under the jurisdiction of the East Palace. What I can do now is to add more feathers to the prince's body. Even if he falls, he will have more capital to stand up."
Pang Ji nodded and said: "It's just the queen's place..."
"Just do it, no one else has to say anything!"
Yun Zheng sat on the edge of the brazier, looking at the heavy snow. He raised his glass and toasted to the sky, and then drank most of the warm wine in one gulp.
The heavy snow started falling last night, and there was still no sign of stopping early this morning. Su Xun said that it looked like the heavy snow would not stop until three to five days.
So after dawn, Yun Zheng sat under the umbrella, warming himself by the fire, drinking wine, hugging his thick fur, and drinking and enjoying the snow with Su Xun.
"There is no such heavy snowfall in Sichuan. Li Bai said that the snowflakes in Yanshan Mountain were as big as mats, and they blew down Xuanyuan Terrace. The heavy snowfall on this wasteland is no less generous!"
Su Xun smiled and said: "Only the rich have the talent to appreciate the snow. The poor people are probably gritting their teeth and enduring the bitter cold at this time. They just want the heavy snow to stop soon. Who has time to think about whether the snowflakes are as big as mats?"
Yun Zheng laughed and said: "Now that our army is well supplied with supplies, and our soldiers have many things to keep out the cold, they will naturally be safe and sound during these nine cold days. But Xiao Dahu should have started to retreat to Xijing at this time, right? In such weather,
Their cattle and sheep cannot survive."
"That's natural. The heavy snow has covered all the dead grass, making it difficult for cattle and sheep to find food. If there is no place to shelter from the wind and snow, those cattle and sheep will definitely be wiped out. The reason why Xiao Dahu refuses to retreat is that
Cui Da left the grain in the city. If Xiao Dahu knew that the grain in Xijing City had been sent to Cailiang Mountain by Cui Da and that the grain depot in the city was empty, I don’t know what his expression would be like.
"
"We can't eat the food collected from Liangshan. Wang Anshi's army of refugees has already arrived in Mayi, and they will reach Yehukou in three days' journey. The food should be enough to support them in Xijing until the spring of next year, right?"
"Xiao Dahu was seriously injured. One arm was broken, three ribs were broken, and his left leg was crushed by a war horse. Now is the season of heavy snowfall. Should he go into Xijing City to escape the snow?"
While the two were talking, they saw a scout rushing over with a runny nose and kneeling on one knee: "Commander Qi, Xiao Dahu's Chinese army has begun to move, and the target is Xijing City!"
"Who is the front army for? Who is the rear army for? Where are his shepherds?"
"Commander Qi, the leader is the deputy general of the Liao Army Han Zhou, the middle army is Xiao Dahu's own troops, and the rear army is a man named Xiao Zhan. His subordinates don't know who this person is! The herdsmen of the Liao Army are closely guarding their cattle and sheep.
Follow the Chinese army."
Yun Zheng handed his warm wine bottle to the scout and said: "Wipe the snot out of your nose. Even if your nose is so cold that you can't feel it, you still need to wipe it clean to avoid frostbite. What does the boss look like with his face covered in snot?"
."
The scout smiled and wiped his nose with his sleeve, then picked up the wine bottle and drank heavily. Because it was during the war, Yun Zheng did not dare to drink strong liquor for fear of getting into trouble. He only drank some rice wine, so a small bottle of rice wine was left by the scout.
Drink cleanly.
After the scout left, Yun Zheng picked up the beans from the iron plate on the brazier one by one and stuffed them into his pockets and said: "Lang Tan and Li Dongchu can no longer hide in the mountains. Zhao Min's cavalry has been hiding in Cailiang Mountain for a long time.
, it’s time to be released and see the blood. I heard that among the 30,000 Qingtang Iron Cavalry, more than 20,000 are from the Sixth Division of Yuanzhai, but I don’t know if they are willing to fight for me, the Song Dynasty!"
Su Xun said: "Now that the commander has made up his mind, according to the original plan, Li Dongchu will be responsible for sniping, Lang Tan will be responsible for the pursuit, and Zhao Min's cavalry will be responsible for harassing the Liao herdsmen. They don't want to kill the enemy, but just want to kill a lot of cattle."
Sheep. Our army can slowly follow behind. Once the Liao people enter Xijing and Wu Jie's army arrives, we will be able to encircle Xijing city."
Yun Zheng said, "Send someone to tell Cui Da that he does not need to enter the city and that his own people in the city need to evacuate. After Wang Anshi's refugee army arrives, we will build an outer city outside Xijing City." (To be continued.)
