In the Song Dynasty, small matters in various places were handled by themselves in various prefectures, counties or various organizations. Difficult or major matters were handed over to the court or reported to the court. This was mostly handed over to the Zaifu, and a few handed over to the departments of various departments.

The Zaifu chose the most important things and handled them by himself, or re-issued them to various departments, departments, prefectures and counties to handle major military and state affairs, or difficult affairs, and then handed over to the emperor for handling or review.

When the emperor governs politics, one is the court meeting, but it is mainly to listen. Only at the court meeting can you hear more voices of officials. Otherwise, where can you see the emperor like some low-level officials?

Secondly, in some open halls, the prime minister or relevant officials came over to inquire or negotiate affairs and personnel appointments.

Finally, I took the initiative to go to various departments to inspect, and the most I went to was the Political Affairs Hall of the East Mansion.

There is another situation, that is, when the emperor was young and the empress dowager was in charge of the rule behind the curtain.

The court meeting will be held as usual, but it depends on the emperor's age. If it is too long, it will generally be very short. Then, there is a curtain left, and the empress dowager sits behind the curtain. The minister reports, and on the surface, it reports to the emperor, but in fact it reports to the empress dowager.

In addition, for major military affairs, eunuchs must be sent to the harem for the empress dowager to learn about it, or approved by the empress dowager.

However, the Empress Dowager could not go to the various ministries to inspect, nor could she summon ministers in the palace.

Even if they are summoned, they are still in the harem.

However, because Gao Taotao's control was strong and he summoned ministers many times, men were in and out of the harem.

Eunuchs cannot be considered men, or at least normal men. There is only one real man in the entire harem, and that is the emperor! Even if the prince and prince become adults, they must leave the harem to open a mansion.

So a scandal broke out in another time and space. In the fifth year of Yuanyou, Liu Shi'an discovered that the palace secretly sent someone to look for the wet nurse in the capital.

Liu Shi'an was shocked. A simple truth is that if there is a wet nurse, there must be a baby. If there is a baby, there must be a pregnant woman. If there is a pregnant woman, there must be a man.

There is only one man in the harem, that is, Zhao Xu, who is fourteen years old. The Song Dynasty used Xu Sui, not one year old. According to the year old, Zhao Xu was only twelve years old, so the key is still necessary to push forward. Even if the baby was born, it means that Zhao Xu and a certain palace maid xxoo last year.

Liu Shi'an immediately wrote a letter, you little guy is going to be in a mess. You are so old that you know xxoo, and you're still going to grow up!

Of course, this memorial will not be written so clearly, but is very tactful, but the meaning is almost the same.

The colleagues said good, so Liu Xian and Fan Zuyu wrote memorials to Zhao Xu and Gao Taotao.

Gao Taotao said, there is a wet nurse, but that is the wet nurse I found for Zhao Xu's little daughter.

Everyone didn't believe it. Zhao Xu had a posthumous daughter when he died. Shortly after his death, the little princess was born. This is indeed Zhao Xu's little daughter. Before the stroke, Zhao Xu was still fine, at least he had sex. But how old is this little daughter now? According to Xu Sui, she is six years old, and she still has to take breastfeeding?

Gao Taotao also felt that his reason was too forced, so he inexplicably scolded Zhao Xu in front of the minister.

Everyone was even more surprised. Is it Zhao Xu's child? If so, even if it is wrong, it is still a prince and a princess. Why bother to pull it to the little princess? If not, why blame the emperor?

There is something strange, everyone will wonder.

Soon after, I learned some truth. Gao Taotao was seriously ill. Lu Dafang and other prime ministers were worried. Three prime ministers forced to enter the harem. We were all old and there were not so many taboos! Then I saw a scene of amazing and miraculous. It was supposed that Zhao Xu began to develop at this time. However, in order to control Zhao Xu, Gao Taotao not only stared at Zhao Xu when he went to court, but also stared at Zhao Xu when he summoned the ministers, but even sleeping together, but there was a curtain between them! Only when he studied with the attendants, Zhao Xu barely left Gao Taotao's sight.

May I ask Zhao Xu, who has the chance to go to xxoo with the palace maid!

The vague truth has come out. It may be that a noble lady in the harem is unfaithful, and the harem is a little messy now, which leads to a scandal.

But this noble lady had a very short relationship with Gao Taotao. Gao Taotao wanted to suppress the matter, so she pushed it on the little princess. Everyone didn't believe it, so they simply pushed it on the little emperor, making Zhao Xu take the blame. It was confusing and it was hard for everyone to ask again.

Just understand, so Liu Fan and others submitted a memorial again. So that's how it is. I misunderstood. Please correct your Majesty if you have it, and encourage him if you don't. Zhao Xu almost wanted to swallow Sima Guang's two shameless students...

It was my own choice and I would like to cover up Gao Taotao together. As for the little emperor’s mood, who cares about him!

Because of Wang Ju's push, Zhao Xu died four years late. It was these four years that gave Zhao Xu a space to grow, especially his body. In history, Zhao Xu was sick, Gao Taotao refused to treat him. Under the dual push of her and Xiao Cheng, he suppressed his life and all aspects, which eventually led to serious malnutrition. Therefore, the portrait he left for future generations was as thin as an opium.

Now after Zhao Xu's death, Gao Taotao still suppressed Zhao Xu a lot, including his previous training, which stopped under Gao Taotao's scolding. But it would be much better without Xiao Cheng. There must be an impact. Now that Zhao Xu is developing, he can't do anything without an impact. Therefore, in ten, Zhao Xu may still be a short-lived emperor, but he will not be able to live to his twenties.

As for the wet nurse incident, it will definitely not happen again. At least Zhao Xu was still alive in the first half of the year before yesterday. Does a certain noble lady in the harem dare to do anything wrong?

However, these ministers were staring at another place, the little lady of the Di family!

It was not because the little lady of the Di family had attracted them, but because Wang Juzhao had attracted them.

In fact, Wang Ju initially proposed that Wang Ju also had his considerations. Many things happened in the so-called Yao and Shun era, or the Yuanyou party struggles, and many of them were unknown to Wang Ju, but he still remembered a lot of the witchcraft case of Empress Meng.

It’s not that Meng’s family is bad. She has a meager background. She is not a good person if she is not born on Weibo. Liu E’s background is even worse, but you have to have the resistance of Liu E.

Without that resistance and a meager background, it is impossible to become the dirtiest mistress in the world for a long time.

And because of her Weibo, her relatives have short knowledge. For example, the most important role in the witchcraft case is Queen Meng's sister. If it weren't for her sister's provocation, what happened later might not have happened, or some people would have to use another means to drive Queen Meng off the stage.

Therefore, Wang Jucai chose the little lady of the Di family. Because of this little girl's background, she was destined to not be too evil in the future. Because of her appearance, she could get the favor of Zhao Xu, and the couple would be harmonious and peaceful in the harem.

Moreover, he agreed in advance that this marriage can be trained since childhood. Wang Ju also hinted to the Di family, don’t just cultivate its etiquette, but you have to talk about some precautions before actually entering the palace.

However, because it was Wang Ju who initiated this incident, he started to spoof again.

Gao Taotao immediately had the same worries as in history when he heard this. His grandson gradually grew older and became difficult to control. If he welcomed an uneasy queen, his grandmother would have to retreat behind the scenes. If he divorced the little lady of the Di family and married a poor woman into the palace, he would have no worries in the harem.

On the surface, Gao Taotao looks quite like Liu E, but in fact... it's really a bit sinister, but Mo Xu, she is a little worse than Xiang in the palace. Half of the Song Dynasty in history was in the hands of these two women.

Facing these mad dog-like scholars, Di Yong and Di Zi did not say a word, just do whatever you want.

Everyone was thinking about how to rest, but An Tao suddenly said, "I'm going to rest." The little woman looks charming. What if the official's family grows up and welcomes her to the palace again?

Not to mention that the emperor doesn't know. When Zhao Xu was alive, he deliberately called the little girl to the palace. After talking to his father-in-law and daughter-in-law for a long time, Zhao Xu was very satisfied. That time Zhao Xu was also by the side.

But it doesn't matter. There are many violent and vicious people among this group of people. Liang Tao said that it can be said that if the official family divorced the marriage, they immediately asked the Di family to marry the little girl to someone else. And there are also previous examples to follow. When Liu E selected the queen for Song Renzong, Song Renzong took a fancy to Wang Mengzheng's daughter, but Liu E thought that this female charming woman was too sarcastic, which might not be beneficial to the young master (referring to excessive sexual intercourse hurting the body), so she forcibly chose Guo Chong's granddaughter for Song Renzong. Then, in order to eliminate Song Renzong's thoughts, she married Wang Mengzheng's daughter to Liu Congde, the son of Liu E's "brother (ex-husband)" Liu Mei.

There is a "story", we are not doing it nonsense...

Di Yong is in Hebei, but Di Zi is in the capital.

So these people sent people to notify the Di family, threatening and inducing them, and doing everything they could.

Because of this marriage, both brothers were promoted. Di Zi's team was at the forefront of Wuchen. He walked out and said, "You are the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, and the Taibao are afraid that they will act in disobedience to the ministers and commit tyrannical acts. Therefore, I leave a gift for me and disassemble them at the critical moment. At the court meeting, I report to the Empress Dowager. Your Majesty to revive the rules!"

Then he opened the tip and began to read Wang Ju's memorial aloud.

Wang Juxian said it would be best if the Empress Dowager and Your Highness should not see it, because it means that Your Majesty is ill.

This is something that humility and being a minister must say, after all, Zhao Xu was not dead at that time.

Then he said some polite words, such as the Empress Dowager's hard work, Your Highness must obey the Empress Dowager's teachings, the minister's precepts, and so on, which are also in line with the rules and regulations at that time.

But Wang Ju's tone immediately changed.

If Your Majesty is ill, Gao Taotao is in the palace, and Zhao Xu is young, he may have a traitor and a traitor into the court. This is not what Wang Ju is worried about. What worries him the most is that some traitors can mess with the court, such as attacking the little lady of the Di family.

Wang Ju once again stated that this marriage was approved by Zhao Xu himself, who dares to violate it!

Then I said a few more things.

Some people must use Guo’s biological mother as an article. Wang Ju asked back, then what was the original identity of Song Renzong’s biological mother (a little palace maid who served Liu E was not even a talented person. In ordinary families, she was just the lowest little maid).

Or someone used the fact that many mothers of Guo (the biological mother was Di Yong's concubine, the mistress was Di Yong's wife, and the adoptive mother was Di Zi's wife), and Wang Juze asked back, Di Yong and Di Zi were brothers, so what was wrong with Di Yong adopting his daughter to Di Zi? Then the general of the Right Qianniu Guard had no son and the court followed him with Duke Cai (referring to Zhao Yunze, the son of the seventh brother of Emperor Zhenzong of Song, who had no son, and Zongda, was the descendant of Zongzi)? Is Renzong wrong to use Prince Xinping as the grandson of the crown prince of Zhaocheng (Zhao Yuanxi had no son, and Song Renzong used Zongzi Zhao Zongbao as his grandson)?

In fact, adoption was not only normal in ancient times, but also in later generations. Of course, nothing was left after family planning.

It makes no sense to use this to make a fuss in the Song Dynasty.

Finally, another question was asked, at that time, Wang Ju expected that someone would use Wang Mengzheng's daughter as a story.

Wang Ju only gave three reasons, first, has Wang Mengzheng's daughter been decided?

Second, when Emperor Renzong of Song married Empress Guo, was there peace in the harem?

Third, a woman’s beauty must be a disaster, and an ugly appearance must have virtue. So what happened to Empress Changsun and Liu E? What happened to Empress Jia?

Li Shimin, a wife, has become famous throughout history, regardless of her beauty, character and talent.

Liu E is not weak either.

In fact, there is another woman, Yin Lihua, but there is a Queen Guo mixed in between, which is a bit confused, so Wang Ju didn't use her as an example.

Empress Jia is the empress of Emperor Hui of Jin, a famous ugly woman in history, and the most unvirtuous queen.

Wang Ju continued, saying that the queen is the mother of the world, and the most important thing is morality. What is the relationship with appearance? Beautiful people may not be bad in character, and ugly people can also make more mistakes for ugly women. Not only the queen, but even ministers are the same. Just like Wang Qinruo, they cannot be considered a treacherous minister, why do many ministers laugh at him for appearance (Wang Qinruo has a short figure and looks like a monkey)?

The little lady of the Di family has been established. Although she is young, she is actually the mother of the world. Her highness is young, so she has not entered the palace. If that rebel minister dares to attack the little lady of the Di family, I will give away a thousand assassins for the Song Dynasty, the late emperor, and the highness!

A scoop of cold water was poured down.

If you don’t explain it clearly, these guys will use Liu E as Wang Mengzheng’s daughter to make a fuss and get away with it, but if you make it clear, one has not been determined and the other has been determined, that is, he is a minister and forcibly forcing the emperor to get married! This is no longer much different from conspiracy.

Besides, there is another sentence that says that Wang Ju can't send troops from overseas to capture the Song Dynasty. But it is absolutely possible to send a thousand dead soldiers to be assassins from overseas.

And if he did this, the history books will take the initiative to rectify Wang Ju's reputation in the future.

Di Zi took back Wang Ju's memorial and said, "The Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, if it is the order of the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, I dare not swear to the royal family and will take the initiative to respond to the imperial edict. However, in recent days, many ministers sent servants to my family and various threats and temptations, not only forcing me to refuse this marriage, but also forcing me to marry my daughter to others. Without an edict, how dare I refuse the marriage of the royal family? Even if there is an edict, how dare I let the emperor down and marry my daughter to others."

"No need to say it, this is definitely not what I mean!" Zhao Xu suddenly stood up, which was also what he said at the court meeting, and then Fuyi left the court hall.

Some ministers jumping up and down looked at each other.

It would be fine if things were not revealed, but once they were revealed, it would be very, very bad.

Especially the emperor's anger made them think of something. The emperor became bigger and bigger and would rule sooner or later! Moreover, this time was only a few years, so let's settle the accounts together.

And if this matter is truly spread to the other side, Wang Juzhen will send a dead soldier to assassinate him. No one can do anything to him overseas!

In fact, even Gao Taotao was stupid.

She also set off, came back, and roared at Zhao Xu like thunder.

A few days later, many ministers were worried and then pointed their finger at Wang Ju.

Two years have passed, and the people's hearts are beginning to fade, and they can discredit Wang Ju.

At this time, Zhang Dun suddenly recovered from his illness. He also had another identity, that is, Zhao Xu's lecturer. Don't think you can take the opportunity to say a lot. Now Gao Taotao controls Zhao Xu in all aspects. Even if the ministers give Zhao Xu's lecturer, he still sends eunuchs to monitor him, especially when Zhang Dun gives Zhao Xu's lecturer.
To be continued...
