The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 54
That night, Zhao Gou stayed in Amber Villa for the night.The next day, the morning star was hanging in the sky, and there were still some twinkling stars around. Zhao Gou got up and started to practice in the morning. After a complete set of boxing, he used a set of weapons. Everyone in the villa got up, looked at Zhao Gou who was sweating profusely in surprise, and said in surprise, "When did he get up?"

All 11 people lowered their heads, only then did they realize that Zhao Gou's martial arts is so high, it's not a coincidence, it's all obtained through their own hard work, and they have paid several times more hard work than others.Even if they were not injured, they would not get up too early, and they all had regular hours. They were older than Zhao Gou, and they couldn't help admiring him.

Seeing that everyone was up, Zhao Gou nodded slightly, and then practiced on his own.Everyone had injuries and did not dare to exercise vigorously. After a little exercise, there was a burst of pain all over the body, and they grinned.Zhao Gou felt guilty when he saw the attitude of the crowd. These people were all injured by him. It doesn't matter if they are bandits, but these people can be regarded as people who have made great contributions to Song Dynasty.

After everyone practiced for a while, Zhao Si also got up.Since the old troubles on his body have been relieved a lot, let him sleep until he wakes up naturally.I have never slept so comfortably and woke up refreshed since my old troubles.He looked up and saw that everyone was exercising in the morning. He looked at Zhao Gou and saw that he was drenched all over. He nodded appreciatively, looked at the time, and said, "Old Nine, it's almost time! Prepare a little bit, and you will be ready later." To enter the palace and go to court."

Zhao Gou also felt that the time was almost up. After freshening up, he put on clean clothes, ate something casually, and immediately set off for the palace.

Zhao Si and others watched him leave and returned to the village. Everyone looked at Zhao Si, and he smiled and said, "Do you think Lao Jiu is the owner of the 'Kirin Token'?"

Everyone was convinced, and said in unison: "It should be!"

"If that's the case, what do you think of his martial arts?" Zhao Si asked again, and everyone laughed wryly. Zhao Gou's martial arts surpassed everyone's too much. Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhao Si knew that they agreed with Zhao Gou, and then Then he said: "Now, the owner of the village has issued the latest order!"

Everyone hurriedly sat upright and listened intently, not daring to show any disrespect.

"From today onwards, the 11 of you will follow Lao Jiu, and only obey his orders. Even if you go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire, you have to go with him. By his side, you will get more things."

Zhao Siyu made an astonishing speech, everyone looked at Zhao Si in puzzlement, Wang Wu asked: "Master, why did you let 11 of us follow him?"

"Lao Jiu has a house in the capital, which I personally selected and belongs to his property. There is no way there is no one in such a huge courtyard. The 11 of you are his servants, and everything is done according to his orders." Zhao Si went on to say, "From then on, you are no longer from the villa. This is also a gift from my uncle. I think Brother Huang will not be stingy. If you follow Lao Jiu, It will definitely be promoted again, maybe you will linger and forget to return, and after you have seen Lao Jiu's ability, you will understand what I said today."

So, whether they wanted to or not, everyone entered Zhao Gou's newly opened "Guangping County King" mansion, and became Zhao Gou's servants as well as the guards in the mansion.They didn't understand why Zhao Seed did this, and they realized Zhao Seed's good intentions only after many years.

When Zhao Si went to court for the first time, something unexpected happened.

"Qizou Shengshang, the Privy Council envoy Mr. Zhao disregarded the imperial court and the emperor, and only wore ordinary clothes instead of official uniforms. This is disrespectful, and I hope the emperor will punish him!"

Zhao Gou saw that someone said that he had never worn court clothes, and he was right. He was wearing casual clothes, not even the clothes of the county king. He couldn't help being speechless and unable to refute.At a glance, all of them were wearing court clothes and official boots, and he was the only one like this. Even Zhao Heng, who had no official position, was wearing royal clothes and dared not show any disrespect.

Yesterday, Song Huizong already knew that Zhao Gou cured Zhao Si, and convinced those people. Even the misunderstanding was eliminated, and he couldn't help feeling relieved.However, he also ignored it and forgot to order a set of court clothes and official boots for him.After all, the court ministers are all adults, and they are all taller than Zhao Gou. If Zhao Gou wears court clothes and official boots, it will look nondescript, and because he was worried about Zhao Si and Zhao Gou last night, he also forgot.

Song Huizong glanced at the official, nodded in agreement and said: "Master Chen is right!..." That Lord Chen couldn't help being a little proud when he saw that Song Huizong also agreed with his point of view, and what Song Huizong said next made him The smile stopped abruptly. "Old Jiu, why don't you wear court clothes or official clothes to enter the palace?"

Zhao Gou bowed and said: "Reporting to my father, my son has neither court nor official uniforms. He was imprisoned in the palace only because he was young. Where did the official uniforms come from, and he never participated in any grand ceremony? Where did the official uniforms come from?"

Song Huizong nodded and said: "In this case, I decree that from now on, the king of Guangping County does not need to pass on court clothes and official boots. After the coronation ceremony, the court clothes and official boots will be re-ordered."

"Thank you for your kindness!" Zhao Gou immediately bowed and kowtowed.

Seeing that Zhao Gou was safe and sound, the man felt angry and cast a deep glance at Zhao Gou.At the same time, Zhao Gou also looked at the man.Although I don't know why, this person wants to fight against himself.However, Zhao Gou is not a kind person. If someone takes the initiative to find fault, then there is no need to show mercy.

Then, Song Huizong asked the ministers of the court if they had something important to play.Everyone is still the same, there is nothing to play.So, early scattered toward.Zhao Gou also left and walked towards the Privy Council.After a while, Zhao Gou came to the gate of the Privy Council. There was no guard in front of the gate, and he thought, "Why is there no one there?"

Today, Zhao Gou took office and took over as the envoy of the Privy Council. Officials should come to greet him.Since there was no official to greet him, he entered it by himself.When he walked in, there was no one in the mansion, which made him a little surprised.So, after Zhao Gou inspected by himself, half an hour later, there was still no one.

Two full hours had passed since Zhao Gou arrived at the Privy Council. People came in one after another, and they all raised their heads proudly, not paying attention to Zhao Gou at all.Zhao Gou didn't care about them either, his eyes were attracted by one of them, that person was the one who impeached him for his misbehavior in the court, and he thought to himself: "So you are a member of the Privy Council!... Then, let's start with you, I want to see who among you is from other forces."

The person who impeached Zhao Gou in the early dynasty was the deputy envoy of the Privy Council. He belonged to Gao Qiu, and his backer was Gao Qiu, as if he didn't pay attention to the young Zhao Gou.If it wasn't for Zhao Gou to kill him, then the Privy Council envoy must be in his pocket, and he felt a little bit of hatred for Zhao Gou.

He knew that Zhao Gou took office today, and he deliberately arrived two hours late. Zhao Gou was the highest official, but he was not in the Privy Council, so he was the highest official.In order to show off Zhao Gou, everyone was ordered to be two hours late, and no one dared to refute. They could only obey the order. They all knew very well that Zhao Gou was just a brat, and there was nothing to worry about, and they never took him seriously. inside.

The Privy Council has a total of twelve rooms, the North Room, the Hexi Room, the Branch Office, the Beijing Room, the Teaching and Reading Room, the Guangxi Room, the Military Register Room, the Militia Room, the Official Room, the Miscellaneous Room, the Supporting Horse Room, and the Small Official Room, a total of 38 rooms. There are three people in charge of the house, five people in charge, two in charge of guarding the gate, 13 people in Lingshi, and 15 people in Shulingshi.Yuanyou not only created the second house of Zhima and Xiaoli, but also added 14 people to the history of the order, 19 people to the history of the book order, and 18 people to the house of the official name.There are five people in Daguan Zengchaifang, three people who created and defended the book and history, and 28 people who corrected names, making a total of 160 people.

The man raised his head proudly, and seeing Zhao Gou standing up and walking in front of him, he sneered in his heart: "See if you still dare to show off your power in front of me in the future, and you will still obey my orders here in the future!" His face showed Shocked, and then complimented: "Master Privy Envoy, why are you sitting here, this is not where you sit?"

"Oh, I'm not sitting here, so where should I sit?" Zhao Gou looked groveling and asked in a low voice.

Seeing Zhao Gou's humility, the man was even more proud. He felt that he was right to obey Gao Qiu's orders, and he was arrogant. Following his orders, his face was overflowing with pride, but he didn't see the strange smile on Zhao Gou's face when he lowered his head, and the cold look in his eyes.

"Master Privy Envoy, of course you are sitting in the main hall, why..." The man showed respect on his lips, and the smug look on his face betrayed his true thoughts.When he was about to continue speaking, he was stunned by Zhao Gou's next actions, and his face was full of disbelief, as if this thing could not happen to him.

Seeing that the man looked like a villain, Zhao Gou got angry, grabbed the man's collar fiercely, forced him to bow his head, and then gave him two slaps. Everyone was stunned.After Zhao Gou finished the beating, he felt that it was not enough, so he slapped him heavily on the face. The palm prints were clearly visible, blood was spilling from the corner of the man's mouth, and the others also stood there stupidly, motionless.At this time, Zhao Gou's face was gloomy, full of disgust, and he sneered, "I want you to show off in front of me. What I hate most is a scum like you. If you dare to pretend in front of me again, just say a word. I will send you to see the King of Hades."
