"Your Majesty, give it~"
In the carriage, Qing'er gently lifted Rouyi and put a peeled Qingdi into Zhao Jun's mouth.
Zhao Jun opened his mouth slightly and sucked Qingti into his mouth. Maybe he moved too fast and accidentally sucked in a piece of Qing'er's finger. Qing'er gave him a charming look and took his hand away from it. Take it back in your mouth.
Chewing the fruit in his mouth, Zhao Jun asked vaguely:
"Isn't Wang Banban back yet?"
Qing'er shook his head and said:
"Ever since we left Nanyang City, Eunuch Wang has not returned until now. What on earth did you send Eunuch Wang to do, Your Majesty?"
Zhao Jun shook his head and said casually: "Forget it if he doesn't come back, there's nothing wrong with him. It's just a small problem that he needs to deal with there first. He should be dealing with it before he comes back.
With his ability, there shouldn't be any problem, and it will come naturally once it's taken care of. "
Seeing that the prince didn't want to talk, Qing'er didn't ask any more questions. He could always be favored and become the closest woman to the prince because he only had eyes and no mouth.
With a status like the prince, those women who are too curious will not be liked by the prince.
He peeled another green grape and removed the seeds and handed it over. Zhao Jun was about to open his mouth to take it when the sound of a boy driving a car suddenly came from outside.
"Your Majesty, the prince is back and is asking to see you!"
Zhao Jun raised his eyebrows: "Hey, when Cao Cao arrives, Wang Banban's speed is no worse than Meng De's!"
Although Qing'er didn't understand what the prince meant, who was Cao Mengde?
But she still understood the meaning of his words, held the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and said with a smile:
"The prince must have known that the prince missed him, so he hurried back."
Hearing this, Zhao Jun immediately shook his head and smiled, then tapped her forehead with his finger and said:
"You, you! When did you learn to flatter me?"
Shaking his head with a chuckle, Zhao Jun immediately rushed to the boy outside the car and said, "Let Wang Banban come in."
"yes!"
The coachman responded, and soon the car stopped. Wang Huai'en, covered in dust, opened the curtain and bent down to walk in.
As soon as Wang Huaien came in, he immediately bowed to Zhao Jun and said respectfully: "I have seen the prince. I have been away for many days. Is the prince okay?"
Zhao Jun smiled and nodded: "Not bad!"
Then he asked: "How are things going?"
Wang Huaien replied:
"Everything is going on in an orderly manner. It will be done when the time comes. All preparations here are in place."
"That's fine."
Zhao Jun nodded with satisfaction. He still trusted Wang Huai'en's ability to do things. He had never made the slightest mistake in so many years.
After Wang Huaien reported on the work he left this time, he seemed to suddenly remember something and hurriedly said:
"My lord, this time I am in Nanyang City. In addition to completing the tasks assigned by my lord, my servant also received some information from the secret guards, all about the future princess. Your lord, do you want to take a look?"
"Information about her?"
Zhao Jun murmured in confusion, then nodded and said: "Send it in, I am already very curious about what kind of person this fiancée I have never met is."
With the ability of the secret guard, the information investigated was very accurate, and I believe it was enough for me to have a relatively correct understanding of my future princess.
Seeing that the prince agreed, Wang Huaien immediately ran out of the carriage again, quickly returned a booklet on his horse and handed it to Zhao Jun. Zhao Jun did not open it, but took out a booklet from his arms and handed it over instead. He went back and said calmly: "Let me decipher it first and then read it."
Wang Huaien was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted. He quickly took the code book from the prince's hand and translated the information sent back by the secret guard.
After about half an hour, Wang Huaien finally finished translating all the information and handed the code book and information to Zhao Jun again.
Zhao Jun took the information, threw the codebook back into Wang Huaien's arms casually, and said lightly: "It's no longer useful, take it out and burn it."
Only then did Wang Huaien realize that these code books were actually disposable.
The secret guards' confidentiality work has actually been done to this extent.
It is not easy to compile a codebook, but you gave up after using it only once. How deep is your sense of confidentiality?
Without saying anything more, he respectfully took the code book and took it outside the carriage to burn it, while Zhao Jun looked through the relevant information about his fiancée in the carriage.
[Ye Yin, the daughter of Ye Wei, Yangbei's envoy, had just left the imperial court at the age of sixteen.
Because she is the daughter of a military attache, Ye Yin has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and does not like red clothes and prefers armed weapons. She has a clear personality of love and hate, and she can't get rid of any sand in her eyes.
This time, Ye Weipingnu, the Yangbei economic envoy, was promoted to the position of Yangbei Jiedushi due to his meritorious service. According to the past practice in the DPRK, officials who were promoted to Jiedushi in local areas must immediately go to Beijing, station in Bianjing and serve as Privy Council. He was appointed deputy envoy to the Privy Council and led the military envoy of Yangbei County from afar. 】
In other words, my father-in-law has taken care of his retirement in advance.
The chaos in the vassals and towns in the previous dynasty was due to the fact that the former dynasty in the later period gave the governors of all provinces and counties the power of Jiedushi, which resulted in them taking over both military, political and financial affairs in the local area. Only then did they have the opportunity to strengthen themselves, and eventually became a warlord of one side!
So in the Song Dynasty, as long as a military general was promoted to Jiedushi, it meant that you were about to start taking care of yourself, so start making preparations.
Naturally, my father-in-law was no exception. After being promoted, he immediately rushed to the capital. Now he must have entered Bianjing first.
Seeing this, Zhao Jun couldn't help but touched his chin and began to think.
Retirement is great! He also said that he was a vassal king. Logically speaking, the court would not want him to get too close to a military general. Why did the emperor suddenly give him a military officer's daughter this time?
Could it be that all the courtiers have collectively lost their minds?
Now it seems that the father-in-law has begun to take care of his old age and has returned to the capital. Naturally, he no longer has control over the original local team. It is no wonder that the courtiers will allow a vassal king to marry the daughter of a military commander.
Presumably, there must be some appeasement measures used by his father and officials to appease the father-in-law.
Taking away your military power, but making your daughter a princess, what does this mean? It means that the emperor does not distrust you, but is just acting in accordance with convention. You don't have to worry about the court trying to kill the donkey.
It can be said that this marriage gift is my father-in-law's reassurance, and I am the reassurance given to me.
After thinking about all this, Zhao Jun didn't have any sadness or entanglement. This is how the world is, everyone is taking advantage of and being taken advantage of.
The difference is whether you have used it or not?
Yes, that means you are still useful. You can use this to get more of what you want and benefit yourself within the rules.
But if you don't even have the value of being used, then you are basically useless as a person. No good things can come from you, and no one will care about what you are thinking.
Therefore, in this life, people are not afraid of being used by others, but they are afraid that they will not even be worth using. If my emperor used me this time, he will definitely have to make up for it from other places. This is also acquiesced by the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty. There won't be much resistance.
And this means that I can already start asking the emperor what I want?
You only have this chance, so you have to think carefully...
Please vote! All kinds of tickets! Recommendation tickets, monthly passes, banknotes, everything is needed, everything is lacking! Hey hey hey!
