Chapter 261 The Concubine Can't Recognize It
In late September of the second year of Jiaxi, the news that Yu Tianxi, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, who had just taken office less than three months ago, passed away due to illness was officially known to the people of the world because of Zhao Yun's edict.
He posthumously named Yu Tianxi as the Grand Tutor, Yu Guogong, and posthumously named Wenzheng, and his eldest son Yu Qiao was granted the position of Yu Guogong. This is the most practical praise Zhao Yun gave to Yu Tianxi for this not too long life.
The Song Dynasty had extremely strict control over titles. Even if it was the position of a prince, there were very few who could be inherited from generation to generation, except for the four specially set successor kings. Yu Tianxi was dead, so if Yu Qiao, as Yu Tianxi's eldest son, inherited the title of Duke Yu, he would definitely be demoted to Duke Yu's county. However, Zhao Yun deliberately asked Yu Qiao to directly inherit the position of Duke Yu, which was an exception.
However, everyone was surprised by Yu Tianxi's posthumous title of "posthumous Wenzheng". You should know that before that, only Bawei's ministers were given the highest reputation of "posthumous Wenzheng" by the emperor after their death.
The eight ministers were Li Fang, the prime minister of Taizong's dynasty; Wang Dan, the prime minister of Zhenzong's dynasty; Wang Zeng, the prime minister of Zhenzong's dynasty; Sima Guang, the prime minister of Renzong, Yingzong, Shenzong and Zhezong's dynasty; Su Shi, the prime minister of Xiaozong's dynasty; Cai Bian, the prime minister of Huizong's dynasty; Zheng Juzhong, the prime minister of Huizong's dynasty.
Each of these eight people was the prime minister who made great contributions to all dynasties in the Song Dynasty and was given the posthumous title of "Wen Zheng". However, now it seems that there is another ninth person.
However, the civil and military officials of the court were not too surprised by Zhao Yun's reward. With Yu Tianxi's identity as prime minister and the complex relationship between him and Zhao Yun, it seems that there is nothing to be surprised about with such rewards.
What really surprised the court officials was that at the end of the edict, Zhao Yun had already made arrangements for the vacant position of left prime minister.
Obviously, Zhao Yun's arrangement for the candidate for the Left Prime Minister this time was much faster than when Qiao Xingjian was resigned. Perhaps it was because of Yu Tianxi's funeral that the court could not keep mourning, right? That was why all factions in the court, especially Zhao Yun, selected the Left Prime Minister so quickly.
The person who takes the position of magistrate is Li Zongmian!
After the trajectory of history circled around Li Zongmian, he returned to his original position again. After nearly three months late, Li Zongmian got the position that should have belonged to him again.
Whether the world's affairs are certain or the wonders of changes is really hard to understand.
When I heard this news, some people cried, some laughed, and some were upset... But this is no longer something that can shake the overall situation.
Yu Tianxi's funeral was finally held, and naturally he was extremely honored. In the ceremonious Lin'an City court, Li Zongmian finally fell because of the position of the left prime minister, which was temporarily over.
...
The closer he got to Lin'an City, Jia Sidao found that his mood was more complicated, and he felt a little timid in his hometown...
As Lin'an City approaches, there are more and more people on the road leading to Lin'an City, including peddlers, pawns, civilians, beggars, or rushing to Lin'an City or leaving Lin'an City. Whether you are walking or coming, you are all in a hurry.
However, these people are the same, that is, they look at Jia Sidao, a group of obviously dusty men, and all of them are a little excited.
Qin ordered the ambassador of the reward army, Jin Zi Guanglu Dafu, "Jia", just seeing these things displayed on the ceremonial guard is enough to tell everyone the identity of the master of the team, who is full of dust and looks a little tired.
Nowadays, the only important minister who rewarded the army in the Song Dynasty is Jia Sidao, the young uncle who had just saved more than one million victims a few months ago!
As more than one million victims returned to their original place one after another, they also brought everything about Jia Sidao to hundreds of cities near five roads, including Huainan West Road, Jiangnan West Road, Jiangnan East Road, Liangzhe East Road, Liangzhe West Road, etc.
Of course, because of their gratitude to Jia Sidao, everything about Jia Sidao brought back was a word of wise reputation and praise, but it was not stained.
These victims thought very simply, and whoever treats them well will remember who is good to them. Although Jia Sidao is Zhao Yun's minister, is it not Jia Sidao who can truly save the lives of their whole family and let them live a life again and even have a share of their own land?
After knowing the identity of the owner in the carriage, the imperial guards did not need to drive them away. Passers-by all made way out on both sides of the road, allowing Jia Sidao, the large group of troops to pass first.
What is the most lively thing in the Song Dynasty now? The funeral of the left prime minister Yu Tianxi. It is said that although this uncle Jia Guojiu was not very happy to meet Mr. Yu at the beginning, he smiled and had a close relationship with each other. It is said that the young master Yu, who caused trouble, has now become the right-hand man of Mr. Jia Guojiu.
Obviously, Lord Jia Guojiu hurried back from Xiangyang City at this moment, it must be for Mr. Yu’s funeral.
...
Outside Lin'an City, there is still a ninety-mile long pavilion.
Zheng Qingzhi, Shi Songzhi, Yuan Fu and a group of ministers in the court gathered again. In addition to the two of them, Li Zongmian, who had just been named the left prime minister, appeared rarely in the ranks of greeting Jia Sidao. Now he is having a good chat with Zheng Qingzhi, Shi Songzhi and others.
Li Zong was hard to take the position of the left prime minister. Although ordinary people knew very little, which ministers in the court knew it well? If it weren't for Zheng Qingzhi, Shi Songzhi, Qiao Xingjian and others, they led a group of ministers to write a letter to Zhao Yun, it would be hard to say who the left prime minister's position would be.
In addition, the staff members of the Rong Palace, the staff members of the Sixiu Palace, Liangshan, King Sipu, and Prince Siyi Palace were also sent to greet him. Even Qiao Xingjian, Li Mingfu, and others who had not come before, also sent the staff members of the mansion to bring Boli to greet him.
When Jia Sidao left Lin'an City and went to Xiangyang, he did not have such a great face to send people to see him off. In the Rong Palace, because Zhao Yun sent Yuan Jing to come, the other three great kings did not make any noise. As for Qiao Xingjian, Li Mingfu and others, let alone.
However, for some reason, no one has come to the palace yet. This surprised everyone.
In an inconspicuous corner at the front of the welcoming team, a carriage without any sign was quietly waiting. This carriage came earlier than everyone present, so the ministers in the court who came to welcome Jia Sidao to return to Beijing naturally saw the carriage.
Although there was no sign on the carriage, many people knew the young man wearing servant clothes and a little stingy-eyed and stingy-eyed young man standing next to the carriage.
That is not the most favored personal follower around Jia Sidao, who is Jia Quaner?
Jia Quan'er was waiting next to the carriage, so the identity of the owner in the carriage was obvious.
Mrs. Jia, who rarely appears in Lin'an City, also came.
But this airs are really a bit high. There are so many adults in the court to welcome your husband, but a woman didn't even come to see him. When the court officials saw the carriage that had not been moved, they all secretly complained in their hearts.
Of course, they are just complaining about it.
Let’s not talk about Li Zongmian, Shi Songzhi, and Zheng Qingzhi, the giants in the court did not show any dissatisfaction with Mrs. Jia’s behavior. Just because of Jia Sidao’s identity now, they would not dare to really say these words. Otherwise, why would they wait for Jia Sidao here?
Isn't it just to make you familiar with me?
Of course, it would be better if it could make the young uncle fall in love with him and be able to lean on his thighs.
The court officials were chatting enthusiastically, but their eyes were looking at the end of the official road from time to time.
In the carriage, two female voices came quietly.
"Sister Zhenxiang, haven't you arrived yet?"
The woman talking was wearing a water-green pleated long skirt, and her hair was tied up high to reveal her slender jade neck. Although it was bound by a jade belt and the long skirt was loose enough, it was still difficult to hide the extremely obvious bulge on the woman's lower abdomen.
Who can this woman leaning against the soft collapse if she is not Xu Ruoxi?
Compared with three months ago, Xu Ruoxi not only does not look thinner, but is much fatter than before. She is round and smooth, and looks a bit like the development trend of baby fat.
While speaking, Xu Ruoxi gently stroked his lower abdomen that had already protruded extremely obviously. While shyness and longing were mixed, she was more of a happy motherly look on her face.
"Sister, what time have you asked? The seventh or the eighth time? Or maybe my sister remembers it wrongly, it's the ninth time?" Shi Zhenxiang, who was sitting opposite Xu Ruoxi, was peeling the grapes in her hand, skillfully putting the peeled grapes in her jade bowl in front of Xu Ruoxi, and said impatiently.
"I'm busy serving you and your aunt's godson, and I don't have a clever eye. How do you know if that person has arrived?" Seeing Xu Ruoxi's anxious look on his face, Shi Zhenxiang quickly turned around and said, "Isn't that boy Jia Quan'er watching outside? That boy's eyes are so terrible. Don't worry, as long as there is news, the boy will tell you immediately."
Although Shi Zhenxiang said this, looking at the grapes peeled out of his hand and the fine sweat on his nose, we can tell that her mood was not as calm and indifferent as she showed.
However, Xu Ruoxi, who was immersed in the joy of seeing her husband, did not notice all this.
"Sister, have I gained weight? In the past few months, you have used various supplements for me every day. Are you getting fatter? Will the guild not recognize me?"
Xu Ruoxi touched his obviously fat face and chin, and said with some concern.
Hearing Xu Ruoxi's words, Shi Zhenxiang rolled her eyes helplessly.
"Sister, if the Dengtuzi dares to say that you are not good-looking and dislike you, I will beat him until the imperial concubine can't recognize him!"
