Zhao Shi㒟 (niǎo), like the emperor, was from the lineage of Zhao Yuanfen, the fourth son of Taizong and the king of Shang.
After the Jingkang Incident, most of the Song Dynasty clans went north, and there were not many Zhao family members left.
But even so, Zhao Gou still guarded them as much as he guarded against thieves, especially those from Taizu's lineage, who lived almost the same as common people.
But this man is from the same ancestry as the emperor; secondly, he was the one who accepted Empress Dowager Meng’s will and succeeded the emperor; thirdly, when Miao and Liu rebelled, he was the one who wrote letters to Lu Yihao and others, issuing orders King Qin.
In this way, he was able to stay in Lin'an City and was given the privilege of opening a mansion.
There are many official positions in the Song Dynasty. In terms of the emperor's family tree, in addition to Taichang Temple, there is also a Dazongzhengshi, and Zhao Shi is now in charge of this Dazongzongzheng.
In other words, he is a figure like the patriarch of the Zhao family.
The symbolic meaning and hidden meaning behind Princess Roufu's return to Lin'an are far greater than the meaning of the matter itself.
Do you think the emperor really missed his relatives in the north?
When his brother had nothing to do, he asked someone to bring him a letter. He made it clear that he would not come to fight for the throne. He just asked him to take him back as soon as possible and live a normal life.
Do you think the emperor ignored him?
Everyone knows that the Tian family is cold, but this Princess Roufu is different!
Not to mention that she is a woman and has no qualifications to compete for others. Just because she was one step ahead of the envoys from the Kingdom of Jin, she arrived in Lin'an...
It was humiliating for the Jinren to let her come, but didn't it also give the emperor a step up?
A step towards peace talks.
You see, my brothers and sisters live such a miserable life there. If I really start a war, how can they survive?
This is not what a son, a brother, or a younger brother should do!
Zhao Shiyi thought very clearly that there was no need to worry about the current temperament, and there was no need to guess whether the emperor wanted war or peace.
It's enough to see who is sitting in the prime minister's seat.
So even though he has never seen Zhao Duofu... maybe he has, but in the past ten years, the pretty girls have grown into shrews, so how can he tell the difference.
But he still equipped her with a carriage, servants, clothes, and jewelry according to the standards of a princess. He even found a three-in-one house in Lin'an Mansion within half an hour.
Zhao Shiyi knew very well that when entering the palace, there would inevitably be a scene of a brother and sister reunion.
"Zong Zheng... the official..."
Seeing that the woman was hesitant to speak, Zhao Shiyi knew what she was worried about, so he just consoled her:
"Don't worry, princess. The official family has always been affectionate and is thinking of you all the time. Now that you are back, the official family will naturally be happy."
With his guarantee, Zhao Duofu felt a little more at ease.
She has been a noble person for half her life, and a mean person for half her life. She looked at the brocade clothes and jade articles on her body, and then at the newly built palace...
She knew that she was going to live a different life for the rest of her life.
Things had to be prioritized, so Yue Fei and the others stopped at the official office in the palace. Only Zhao Shiji and a group of officials from Taichang Temple escorted Princess Roufu to the Chui Gong Hall.
Liu Bang had changed his clothes long ago, and after waiting for a long time, he finally came over.
"The official family..."
"Brother Ninth!"
Everyone was about to salute, but they didn't expect that the princess burst into tears and ran towards the emperor.
The golden melon warrior on the side subconsciously wanted to make a move, but was stopped by the emperor's eyes. She allowed her to go beyond the rules and ran to the emperor's side.
Then, she held the emperor in her arms...
That's right, the two of them were standing and the other was sitting. Zhao Duofu was originally thinking of the scene of brother and sister embracing each other, but he didn't expect that the emperor would not cooperate with him at all.
He was still sitting, with his head just touching this person's... This was not the most important thing, it was just that this woman was very strong, her hands...
Her hands were pressed against Liu Bang's back, like two brushes with nails embedded in them, almost drawing blood from the emperor's back.
"Cough...cough..."
It took a lot of effort to push the man out. Liu Bang covered his neck, feeling very angry.
Damn it, why isn’t that lady Zhongyu so enthusiastic?
After talking about it, Zhao Shiyi smiled and said: "The official and the princess have not seen each other for a long time. Now that they meet again, the princess forgets the etiquette for a moment, but she also acts from the heart, which is really touching."
Lu Zai on the side was thinking about how to use words to make this paragraph more touching, but he saw the emperor stood up and walked towards the princess who was pushed away by him.
Then, I could only see the emperor's lips moving, but could no longer hear what he said.
"Brother Ninth...the official family..."
This move just now was the result of countless rehearsals in her mind after crossing the Huaihe River.
Deep love between brother and sister...
What a joke!
Her mother is the royal concubine. Who is Zhao Gou's mother?
She is the maid in the home of Su Song, the prime minister of Zhezong!
Even if she entered the palace, she would only be the maid of Empress Huizong Xiansu at the beginning.
If he and his mother hadn't been the least favored by the emperor, how could he have been sent to seek peace with the Jin people?
Zhao Duofu is not a fool, and it is unrealistic to pray that the emperor has much affection for him.
The only thing she hoped for was that the emperor could respect the relationship between brother and sister so that she could live a better life.
But……
"Girl, you should go with Liu Qi and the others."
"Um?"
"But you have no other way out now."
Princess Roufu didn't understand, but she knew from the emperor's expression that this was not a good thing.
Without giving her time to react, Liu Bang just looked at the officials below with confusion:
"I remember...my sister doesn't look like this?"
As he spoke, he even scratched his chin, as if he was really confused.
These words could be big or small. Zhao Shiyi was shocked and quickly stood up and said: "The official and the princess have been apart for a long time. It's not surprising that her appearance has changed a little."
After a pause, he continued: "The chamberlain Huang Yanjie once served Wang Guifei back then, and he also knew the princess."
"Yes, yes!" Huang Yanjie quickly stood up: "Officials, I can testify!"
"You testify?"
Liu Bang looked at the eunuch: "Are you his brother, or am I his brother?"
Huang Yanjie was so frightened that he burst into tears and immediately knelt down: "You are the one, the official is the one."
"Then whether she is my sister or not, do you or I have the final say?"
"The officials have the final say, the officials have the final say!"
"Then I don't think it's the case. What do you think now?"
How dare Huang Yanjie say: "It really doesn't look like it, it really doesn't look like it!"
Well, Liu Bang looked at Zhao Duofu who was trembling with fear. The imperial troops on both sides had already reacted and stood between her and the emperor.
"Brother Ninth!"
This cry was so painful that everyone couldn't help but shake their heads.
