After drinking tea for a while, Zhao Tong said again: "Let's go back tomorrow. Although there are few things to do in Fujian, if you leave for a long time, you may be exposed."
Huang Jue said: "Master, who do you think is suitable to stay here?"
Zhao Tong said: "Thunder Tiger will stay, and I will ask him to send me to the Liao territory. You will take the other pirate leaders away tomorrow. This is no better than you being able to return at any time on the sea. I will feel at ease only after you leave."
Huang Jue said: "By the way, sir, my subordinates have already built the thing mentioned in the last letter, but there are very few whale muscles. Even if there is a high reward, I can only build five of them now."
Zhao Tong nodded and said, "Have you tried the power?"
Huang Jue said: "It is extremely powerful. A small sea-going ship will be shattered directly. A medium-sized sea-going ship will need a few more hits to penetrate it. For large-sized sea-going ships, there are not enough of them to pose such a fatal threat."
Zhao Tong said: "It is not necessary to use whale salamander tendons, but whale salamander tendons are the most powerful. You can weaken the power, ask for the quantity, and think about what you can replace. There are many mountains and seas over there, so it is always convenient to do things. "
Huang Jue said: "This is the young master. I have one more thing to ask for. Please agree to it."
Zhao Tong said: "Just say it straight away, whether you agree or not."
Huang Jue said: "I would like to ask the young master to give my son a name."
Zhao Tong asked curiously: "Didn't Old Bachelor Huang give me a name? That's strange. I remember that the old Bachelor was the best at explaining the Eight Diagrams. Many people in the court asked for a name for the younger generation in the family."
Huang Jue said sarcastically: "I wanted to name it, but my father said that the birth date and horoscopes were evil, so he wouldn't give me a name. He asked me to ask a noble person to name it."
Zhao Tong smiled and said, "You are a noble person in your own family. Now that you have become such a big official, are you still not a noble person?"
Huang Jue smiled and said: "I am not a noble person, but the master is the real noble person."
Zhao Tong thought for a while: "I have never given anyone a name. Don't complain if you don't name it well."
Huang Jue said: "How dare I?"
Zhao Tong said: "Two words or three words?"
Huang Gu thought for a while: "The two generations above and below have always had two characters, so this time the young master will give me a three-character name."
Zhao Tong's face looked slightly strange, and he said for a moment: "I don't know how to read the birth date. Since Old Scholar Huang didn't say anything that needs attention, then I will just take it."
Huang Jue said: "Please give me your name, Master."
Zhao Tong said: "I have heard that the commander of the Resentment Army, Guo Yaoshi, and Shen Yi, are courageous, brave and resourceful. I think it is better to call him Yaoshi!"
Huang Jue was stunned when he heard this. This was a very common name. He knew that there were two pharmacists in the imperial court, and there was also a person with this name in the Fujian Transportation Department. But he said He didn't dare to say it, so he just said: "Thank you, Master, for the name."
Zhao Tong shook his head and said: "I know you are dissatisfied with this name. The old bachelor can't afford it, but you can't afford it. It's up to me to blame this king, and I have never given him a name."
Huang Jue said with a smile: "How dare I think so? This name is good, it will definitely suppress the evil nature mentioned by the old man."
Zhao Tong waved his hand impatiently: "Go back and think about it, I will take a rest for a while."
Huang Jue stood up and walked out. As he walked, he thought, why did the young master have such a name? This is different from the young master's talent.
Watching Huang Jue go out, Zhao Tong lay down on the bed behind the handsome tent and slowly closed his eyes.
He had an unusual relationship with the Huang family. He had often gone to see Huang Shang's "Wanshou Taoist Canon" since he was a child. At that time, he had not yet studied martial arts with Zhou Dong, but he had memorized some Taoist boxing techniques.
Emperor Daojun favored Huang Shang, in fact half of the reason was because of his name. Huang Shang's name comes from the sixth and fifth hexagram of Kun in the Book of Changes: Huang Shang, Yuan Ji.
Yuan, Daye, Shang, culottes, this is noble and auspicious, represents the sign of good luck, and also represents the beauty of people's inner virtue, so it is good luck.
Huang Shang was cautious, his poetry and writing were first-class, and he had a thorough understanding of Taoist scriptures. He naturally won the favor of Emperor Daojun. Since Emperor Daojun trusted Huang Shang and treated Huang Shang as one of his own, he would give some benefits. He was never stingy in this regard. , Needless to say, Wang Fu is just like Gao Qiu, who has been upgraded several levels in a row.
But the old scholar Huang had to compile books for him, so he couldn't have time to serve as other officials. Emperor Daojun thought that he should promote his son. However, Huang Jue had just been named on the gold medal and was being sent to the county magistrate.
So after some time, Emperor Daojun directly transferred Huang Jue back to the capital and gave him a deputy envoy of the Imperial City Department. The positions in the Imperial City Department were either held by eunuchs or by noble disciples, with few exceptions.
But something else happened.
Huang Jue once had a childhood sweetheart named Xiao Ping. After he passed the imperial examination, he went out and planned to settle down before proposing marriage. However, at this time Xiao Ping was sent to the palace by his father.
Although there were also drafts this time, they were mostly only near Kaifeng and not very large. The rest were some officials who took the initiative to send girls into the palace. Xiao Ping's father was a fifth-rank imperial official. Although he knew about the relationship between Huang Jue and Xiao Ping, However, at that time, Huang Shang had already resigned from office and was in Fuzhou, and he was devoted to compiling the Longevity Taoist Canon for Emperor Daojun. He felt that the Huang family had no power anymore, and he was greedy. He gritted his teeth and sent his daughter to the palace without caring about her life and death. .
But after women entered the palace, most of them were palace maids at first, and Xiao Ping was no exception. There were countless women in the palace, and they did not get the favor of Emperor Daojun.
Huang Jue was devastated when he found out about this. He only blamed his family's obsession with studying for the imperial examination, which had ruined Xiao Ping's life. He was a fool when it came to the relationship between men and women. He never thought that given the situation of the Huang family at that time, he could rely on old bachelor Huang alone. Supporting the lintel, seeing that the compilation of the Taoist scriptures will last until death, it is impossible for Xiaoping's father to agree to this marriage.
Although he, the deputy envoy of the Imperial City Department, was a high-ranking official, he always had to go to the palace. As a result, he met Xiao Ping one time. Huang Jue was smart in other things, but he couldn't turn around emotionally. If Old Scholar Huang comes forward in this matter and tells the Emperor Daojun the cause and effect, it will not be too difficult to get a palace maid.
It is not new for officials to reward maids in this dynasty. Emperor Renzong before him, and if things develop normally, there will be Gaozong after him, who have done this kind of thing.
But Huang Jue was too young at the time, and as a result, the sky was thundering and the earth was angry, so he killed her first and then told her later. It wasn't until Xiaoping became pregnant that she was at a loss and went home to confess to Huang Shang.
Huang Shang was furious. He knew Emperor Daojun too well. You can ask for anything Emperor Daojun has never touched, and he will reward it if he is in a good mood. But if you don't ask for it but kill it first and then show it, then you won't be able to show it. Okay, not to mention that when a palace maid goes out as a reward, she must prove her true identity. No matter what she does now, it is a capital offense!
There was no solution to this matter. Even if Huang Jue ran away, Xiaoping wouldn't be able to escape. Besides, it wouldn't be easy for them to meet each other. As Xiaoping's belly gets bigger day by day, sooner or later the secret will be revealed. Even if Xiaoping commits suicide at this time, it will be useless. , pregnancy can be detected with just one intrauterine examination, and it is not difficult to follow the clues to find Huang Jue.
Zhao Tong was only seven years old at the time. He got to know Huang Gu because he often went to Huang Shang's editing office. He learned about this from Huang Gu's mouth. Huang Gu was not very old at the time. He talked vaguely about why his father was at home. Huang Gu didn't quite understand what he was saying when he hit his brother or cursed him, but after Zhao Tong's analysis, he discovered that such a big thing had happened.
He thought that he might as well rescue him, and it was also good for Daojun Emperor, so he went directly to Huang Shang and said straight to the point that he had a solution. Huang Shang was frightened and turned pale. Zhao Tong only told Huang Shang to go back and prepare to pick him up. People are.
This matter was very confusing to the Huang family, but it was very simple for Zhao Tong. He went directly to his mother-in-law, called Xiao Ping to serve, and then quietly took her out of the palace a few days later to let the Huang family Pick it up secretly.
As for Xiao Ping missing from Zhao Tong's side, a few people dared to ask, and even the empress helped him hide it, so the matter was settled.
From then on, the Huang family hid Xiao Ping for two years. At this time, neither Huang Shang nor Huang Jue dared not to work conscientiously. He almost wanted to bury himself in official duties to cover up his uneasiness. Emperor Daojun saw this Naturally satisfied in his eyes, he continued to promote Huang Jue, and promoted him to be the prison envoy of Tidian, then the magistrate of the state, and finally he was directly promoted to the position of appeasement envoy of Fujian Road.
Therefore, the relationship between Zhao Tong and the Huang family is extremely special. Zhao Tong is a life-saving grace to the Huang family, and the Huang family repays the favor and obeys orders.
