The love of Song Dynasty can't be put down

Chapter 2

general.

Just now, after playing with his daughter Anguo Princess Feiyan for a while, the nanny and maid accompanied the little princess out of the house to watch fish in Qianli Lake, and he waited alone for his friend Iron Whip King Hu Yanzan to come.

Today's sunshine is very abundant, Zhao Defang closed his eyes in the promenade in the back garden and rested his mind, enjoying the warmth and comfort of the sunshine shining on his handsome face.

After a while, an eunuch came over and knelt down and said, "My lord, my lord Huyan has arrived."

Zhao Defang didn't open his eyes, but just waved his hand and said, "Let Lord Huyan come here to talk."

Not long after the eunuch left, Hu Yanzan with a gray beard came here in three steps and two steps; although Hu Yanzan is very old, but because he was a general when he was young, his body is exceptionally good .

It's just that the light green clothes on his body seem to be a little thin now, and they may be torn anytime they are worn on him.

With a big belly, he strode in and asked first, "Chitose is so bold! You don't even have to go to the emperor's enthronement ceremony!"

Zhao Defang raised one corner of his mouth slightly, and then opened his eyes, but still maintained the sitting posture just now, "You, Hu Yanzan, didn't go either! Besides, there are still many important officials from other places who couldn't come to the sacrifice in time, why did you Just staring at me, Zhao Defang?"

"It's wrong to say that! You are the Lord of Thousand Years conferred by the late emperor. How many people in this court are your close friends? If you don't go... If you don't go, it's a clear challenge to the emperor's authority!"

After Hu Yanzan sat down, a girl came to serve him tea. He took a sip from the bowl and continued, "The emperor asked me to rest at home when I was old. I have no chance to go... The prince and the prince don't care." Same! Your eighth king is the prince of gold, and I am the prince of mud!"

Although Hu Yanzan's words made him very happy, Zhao Defang was still laughing at himself, "What's the difference between me and you now? What's the difference between me and you now? What's the difference between me and you? Is it not Long live? vassal—"

Hearing that the meaning of Zhao Defang's words was gradually deflected, Hu Yanzan couldn't help being startled, and repeatedly waved his hands to tell him not to say any more, "Lord Qiantui, please keep your voice down!"

At this point, Zhao Defang's delicate face showed a trace of resentment, and when he wanted to continue talking, Hu Yanzan got up early and covered his mouth.

"My lord! What else do you want to do? Now that the overall situation has been settled, even if there were any doubts back then, the fact that the emperor will succeed to the throne cannot be changed. Even if you don't think about yourself, why don't you think about Feiyan? She's only 14 years old!"

Hu Yanzan knew that it was useless for him to say it, but he just wanted to say it. Seeing that Zhao Defang didn't stop him, he went on to say: "You are always depressed and plotting schemes. If you are really exposed by the emperor in the future, wouldn't Feiyan want to Die with you!"

Zhao Defang folded his arms, squinted his eyes and looked at Hu Yanzan, "Say, continue to talk—"

Obviously, Zhao Defang was still upset, but Hu Yanzan still refused to stop talking.

3 [Stubborn Beauty]

"You and I have been friends for many years. I don't want to see you getting deeper and deeper... You are already very good now. In the whole Song Dynasty, no one knows that your Eight Kings and Thousand Years are stronger than the emperor. Even the emperor wants to let you Three points, what else are you dissatisfied with?"

Speaking of the emperor Zhao Heng, Zhao Defang felt even more uncomfortable, "Okay! Don't mention that Zhao Heng anymore!"

Thinking of Zhao Heng who was still the prince back then, one day when he was taking a nap, he boldly wanted to do something deviant to him... Every time he thought about it, Zhao Defang felt uncomfortable, and even became more and more disgusted.

Although Hu Yanzan was trying to persuade him because he was doing it for his own good, Zhao Defang was determined to change his mind, "Stop talking, have you done everything I asked you to do before?"

In the end, Hu Yanzan could only sigh, knowing that his eloquence was not good, and he couldn't persuade this stubborn beauty at all.

"This is the list of all generals who are registered, first-rank and above second-rank. They are all here. Take a look!"

After Hu Yanzan handed a stack of booklets to Zhao Defang, he walked away with his hands behind his back, leaving him alone to read the booklets.

This is Zhao Defang's habit for many years. As long as he reads some important texts, he will definitely read them alone. And he has known and trusted Hu Yanzan for many years, and he also believes that he will not peek at these books on the way here. of.

Now the people in the capital all shouted that the eight kings and thousand years old are living Bodhisattvas who rescue the suffering, and they are fair and selfless in dealing with others. Their reputation is extremely good, and Zhao Defang also has many cronies.

But among these people, there is still one person who holds military power. If one day he really wants to raise troops to fight against Zhao Heng, then it is impossible for his subordinates to not have his own person who holds military power.

Opening a volume of lists, their official positions, and some specific introductions, Zhao Defang finally locked on one person after reading more than half of it.

"General Flying Star... General Feiyunqi, the only son of Taishi Pang..."

After reading the introduction below again, Zhao Defang closed the booklet with satisfaction, finally showing a rare happy smile on her face.

Not far away, seeing his flowery smile, Hu Yanzan couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat...

After seeing Zhao Defang close the booklet with a determined expression on his face, Hu Yanzan came over to wait for his order.

***

Almost a week later, Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng's succession ceremony officially began. After receiving visiting officials from various places and envoys from other dependent countries, Zhao Heng assigned Prime Minister Wang the task of hosting the evening banquet.

Before the banquet begins, the emperor and empress are invited to be the first to arrive, after the ministers of civil and military affairs line up on both sides of the hall.

Zhao Heng and Queen Pan dressed up together and walked up the steps slowly. After Queen Pan helped the emperor sit on the dragon chair, she walked down the steps by herself and sat in the queen's seat set up for her in advance.

After the emperor sat down, he looked around for a week and found that the seat not far from him was still empty. He thought in his heart that if Zhao Defang didn't show up again, he would really be laughed at by the world today as the emperor.

Before Zhao Heng opened his mouth, the envoy of Xiliang Kingdom asked first, "May I ask His Majesty Zhenzong? Those of us who have come from afar have heard that the eight sage kings, Qiansui, were born with a beautiful appearance and are very knowledgeable. How dare you ask?" One is it?"

I saw that this person's face was very thin, he was wearing traditional Xiliang costume, and he had a sinister expression on his face.

Several important ministers understood the meaning of the Xiliang man's words, the meaning of provocation had accounted for [-]%, and the others were naturally waiting to see the emperor's joke.

Although the matter has not ended well at this point, there is still a certain turning point.

4 [Eye Collision]

"Oh? This envoy is so interested in this king!"

When these words came out, everyone in the hall focused their eyes on the door, and Zhao Heng was no exception.

I saw Zhao Defang dressed in a bright yellow double dragon robe similar to the emperor, wearing a pure gold dragon crown inlaid with white jade, holding a golden mace bestowed by the former emperor in one hand, and holding his laughing daughter Princess Feiyan in the other hand .

Zhao Defang's beauty needless to say, Zhao Feiyan next to him has also inherited his father's appearance, the 14-year-old girl is wearing a high-quality pink palace gown, without too many hair accessories on her head, her childish face has already attracted Lots of male gazes.

The presence of such a father and daughter naturally attracted everyone present to be overwhelmed by his beauty, and some foreign ministers and envoys who had never seen Zhao Defang almost lost their footing.

Seeing those people cast most of their eyes on her father, Zhao Feiyan naturally became a little jealous, and simply vented her dissatisfaction recklessly.

"Hey, you old men, have you seen enough? My princess, please, please, can you not see the cuteness and beauty of this princess except Lord Qiantose?"

Zhao Defang patted her daughter's little hand, "Feiyan, don't talk nonsense!"

Zhao Feiyan's words also broke everyone's embarrassment, and also made Zhao Heng regain his senses, "Seeing that Brother Huang is fine, I am relieved..."

Zhao Defang smiled lightly, and after handing Feiyan over to Su Yi Nanny who came with her, she walked forward and faced Zhao Heng alone, "Hmph! The emperor actually wants me to have something to do, right?"

"Haha... Brother Huang really knows how to joke, Prime Minister Wang, it's getting late, don't delay the banquet time, please!" After Zhao Heng laughed a few times, he quickly assigned Prime Minister Wang to do things, so as not to tell Zhao Defang that he would definitely If asked by him, he might not be able to say anything.

After Prime Minister Wang received the decree, he led all the ministers to kneel three times and kowtow nine times to the emperor. Only Zhao Defang stood calmly in front of the crowd and had no intention of kneeling at all. Zhao Heng had nothing to do with him. He doesn't need to kneel in front of the hall, so naturally he doesn't need to kneel.

After the ceremony was over, just after everyone took their seats, another guest arrived outside, saying that this person came from the border to present gifts for the emperor's ascension to the throne after receiving the order of the Eight Sage Kings.

"Brother Huang, did you specially invite this person?" Zhao Heng didn't quite understand.

"Your Majesty, this person is actually not an outsider. He is Taishi Pang's only son, Flying Star General Pang Tong and Pang Yuanying. Hearing that the Emperor is enthroned today, he specially led his generals, Feiyun Riders, to congratulate him."

Although Zhao Defang's words are very reasonable, but no matter what Zhao Heng heard, he felt that he deliberately dispatched troops to surround the capital. king's will
