Chapter 45 Sincerity
Zhao Zhen still had something to say: Marquis Dingyuan finally said, if you change your temper, then I can only run away and stay far away from you.

People who can change their temperament either have great perseverance or have received some severe stimulation.The emperor can change his temperament, either perverting it or completely lying down.

The perverted emperor should not be approached, and it is best to stay away from the lying emperor to avoid being angry to death.

Being able to receive the posthumous title of "Renzong" after his death shows that Zhao Zhen persisted in his character until the day he died.

Li Xian once laughed at him for not being an emperor, but Zhao Zhen was not angry. Instead, he considered him his confidant.

He is really not the material to be an emperor.

The greatest courage in his life was to use Fan Zhongyan and others to launch the Qingli New Deal, but soon he chose to retreat under pressure.

How should an emperor without courage advance?

This is a topic that Li Xian has been researching recently.

The Queen Mother interrupted his research and summoned him into the palace.

"The official suddenly became frustrated and mentioned you." The Queen Mother said with a cold face, "You said that the official is not a gentleman, is it too soft-hearted?"

Anyone else would have apologized immediately, but Li Xian said, "Yes."

"Do you think I won't punish you?" The Queen Mother suddenly changed her face, "The officials are frustrated and worried about this. If you are unable to recover, what crime should you be responsible for?"

For Zhao Zhen, isn't depression his lifelong companion?
Li Xian didn't think Zhao Zhen would be able to withstand the blow.And when he said that, Zhao Zhen agreed very much.

So what does the Queen Mother mean by suddenly mentioning this matter?
Thinking of the recent series of changes in the DPRK, Li Xian couldn't help but feel a chill running down his spine.

He and Wang Zeng have been friends for many years. Wang Zeng is Wang Qinruo's mortal enemy, and his relationship with Lu Yijian is complicated.It stands to reason that Lu Yijian was able to assume the position of prime minister and assistant in the first place because of Wang Zeng's strong recommendation.But these days, there seems to be some resentment between the two.

Wang Zeng had a good relationship with Li Xian, and Li Xian had a good relationship with the official family. In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, Wang Zeng became a direct descendant of the official family.

The official family actually planted a confidant in the prime minister...

I'm careless!

Li Xian knew that he had been careless recently and actually neglected this matter.

The Queen Mother was gradually seizing power from her ministers. As her position became more stable, the Queen Mother's thoughts gradually turned to maintaining her own power.

So, what would the Queen Mother think when she felt that Wang Zeng was leaning towards Zhao Zhen?
When Li Xian thought of this, he felt certain in his heart. He raised his eyes and said: "Actually, in my heart, the temperament of an official is really not suitable for being an emperor. I will die..."

If the Queen Mother is really angry because of the officials, she will become even more angry at this moment.

The Queen Mother's voice was a little erratic, "Why?"

Sure enough... Li Xian felt a surge of sadness in his heart, thinking that power can really destroy people's emotions, but now he still had to fool the Queen Mother first.

"The temperament of the official family is too weak, that is, the heart is too soft. I once saw with my own eyes that the official family forgave a servant who swore that he would die a good death behind his back. Queen Mother, the official family is really... so helpless and soft-hearted!"

Even for future generations, when they hear someone cursing them for not having a good death, they still have to give that person a good beating, right?

But Zhao Zhen was so angry that he was angry for a long time. Just when everyone thought that the servant was going to be in trouble, the man said: "It's just a few complaints. Besides, I have my own spiritual protection."

So the chamberlain was let go.

He poses no threat to you... Li Xian said sincerely: "Actually, in my opinion, if the Queen Mother is not in the way, it will be a disaster for the officials to take charge."

Look, I've said it before, this guy made a mistake in becoming the emperor, and this guy is so soft-hearted, even if you slap him, he promises to forgive you the next day.

With such a son as emperor, what else are you dissatisfied with?

proclaim oneself emperor?You don't dare and you don't want to.

So, why should you be afraid in the face of such a non-threatening son?
In ten years, you will go to see the late emperor. By then, won’t it be good for a mother to be kind and her son to be filial?Then he invited Li Shunrong out, so that the officials could once again enjoy the kindness of a mother and the filial piety of her son...

After saying this, Li Xian pretended to be relaxed and said: "To be honest, it's just the Queen Mother. If it were someone else, I would just give it up. I bet that the official would be crying outside the palace and begging you to come out."

He pretended to look pitiful to Zhao Zhen, "Madam, if you don't come out of the mountain, what will happen to the world? If you don't agree, he will shout at the top of his lungs: Madam, help!"

puff!The Queen Mother smiled.

As expected, the old lady was very suspicious.Li Xian knew that his analysis touched the Queen Mother's heart.

"Nonsense!" The Queen Mother said with a straight face, "Get out!"

Li Xian said with a playful smile: "The old lady summoned me into the palace and gave me a meal! Otherwise, wouldn't I be at a loss?"

"You're so thick-skinned, I'm shocked." The Queen Mother laughed and scolded, "Didn't you hear what Marquis Dingyuan said?"

The world is at peace... Luo Chongxun was happy in his heart and shouted: "Hurry and get some delicious food for Mr. Hou, and a pot of wine."

Li Xian, who had successfully beaten the Queen Mother, was picking his teeth and was about to leave when Liu Congde came.

"aunt……"

This guy started crying as soon as he arrived, messing up the Queen Mother's newly improved mood.

"what happened again?"

This is not right!

When Liu Congde saw Li Xian, his heart skipped a beat and he quickly changed his words, "I'm here to visit my aunt."

"I'm not dead yet, you can go and enjoy yourself." The Queen Mother was in a good mood.

Li Xian came over and said, "The food here is really good, I will come again next time."

Aunt, beat him up!Liu Congde was waiting to watch the show.

"Next time? Next time I'll reward you with bamboo shoot stew!" the Queen Mother said with a slang expression on her face.Is this my aunt?Liu Congde heard the cordiality and couldn't help but wonder, so he took advantage of the situation and resigned together.

"Haosheng learn from Marquis Dingyuan." The Queen Mother said with a straight face.

"Yes."

The two left the palace together.

The sun was shining brightly at this moment, and a group of palace people were walking slowly under the eaves. Some were chirping, and some were looking at the front quietly, and suddenly said happily: "Marquis Dingyuan."

Liu Congde said enviously: "Marquis Dingyuan is indeed favored by these young ladies."

Li Xian glanced at him. Historically, when the Queen Mother was there, the two brothers Liu Congde lived quite proudly and regarded the palace as their second home.After the death of the Queen Mother, Zhao Zhen learned that his biological mother was someone else. In other words, Liu Congde had nothing to do with him, but he was still generous to their brothers, but it was impossible to be like before.

From then on, Liu Congde became cautious in his words and deeds and never went out unless nothing happened.

"Marquis Dingyuan." Liu Congde felt itchy, "I wonder how Marquis Dingyuan won my aunt's favor? Can you teach me a thing or two?"

"Simple." Li Xian said, "two words."

"Please tell me." Liu Congde concentrated.

"sincere."

Ok?
Liu Congde curled his lips, "Why did Dingyuan Marquis deceive me?"

"When I see the Queen Mother, I feel as cordial as seeing an elder, so I can treat her with sincerity. Do you understand?" Li Xian said with a straight face, "Your two brothers are of no use to the country, and they only rely on the care of the Queen Mother. You have lived a good life. But if you are ignorant and cause trouble, you will bring trouble to the Queen Mother. Be careful with your words and deeds!"

I asked you for advice, but you made a big deal about it, bah!

Liu Congde handed over his hand, "I still have something to do, please take the first step!"

These words were later conveyed to the ears of the Queen Mother by the accompanying chamberlain.

"Elders?" The Queen Mother was thoughtful. Concubine Yang hugged a cat and said with a smile: "Dingyuan Hou's parents and relatives are gone. There is no elder around him, and he feels lonely. The Queen Mother is arranging for his marriage, and also for him. Isn't he the one who mediates conflicts like an elder? Since this person values ​​​​love, he will definitely treat the Queen Mother as an elder."

Lu Yijian had been waiting for something to happen. He watched clearly from the sidelines. There was some unknown gloom in the eyes of the Queen Mother when she looked at the official family recently.

If Wang Qin wants to become a real prime minister, he must stay close to the Queen Mother.But the officials were very dissatisfied with him, so if Wang Qin would not sit back and wait for death, he would definitely give the officials eye drops.

This plan was quiet but quite clever.

"My lord, Marquis Dingyuan has left the palace." A follower came to report.

"How do you look?" If the Queen Mother wanted to restrict the power of the official family, she would be the first to attack his confidants, and Li Xian could not escape.

"It was said that the Queen Mother gave a banquet alone and ordered Liu Congde to learn from him."

It shouldn’t be!Lu Yijian was puzzled.

Wang Qinruo was even more puzzled, but he did not dare to question the Queen Mother.

The two big guys were puzzled because they were very drunk that day.

But Li Xian said softly at home in the direction of Zhenzong's mausoleum: "This is the best situation right now, just bear with it!"

I really want Li Shunrong to come out now, unless the Queen Mother falls.The Queen Mother fell and Zhao Zhen took charge... Can he take charge?

Given Zhao Zhen's current ability, pro-government would be a disaster for him and the Song Dynasty.

"Actually, the official family is really not suitable for being an emperor." Wang He only had Li Xian as his master in his eyes. The emperor was just a symbol to him, so there was no respect in his tone.

"Yeah!" Li Xian nodded.

During Renzong's reign, things seemed beautiful and beautiful, but there was an undercurrent surging underneath.Zhao Zhen's weakness fed the appetites of the scholar-bureaucrats, so that when Shenzong ascended the throne, he faced a mess.

Without reform, the Song Dynasty would surely perish.This is the judgment of Shenzong and Wang Anshi.Knowing that change was unlikely, Shenzong still took action without hesitation.

In the end, the reform failed, and the Northern Song Dynasty was swept into the garbage heap of history.The Southern Song Dynasty was left living in a corner of the country.

The next day was the day when Di Qing was supposed to come to class, but after waiting for a long time, Di Qing was nowhere to be seen.

Di Qing’s promise!

Li Xiandang immediately ordered Wang He to inquire.

More than an hour later, Wang He came back.

"Di Qing was intercepted."

"Who?"

"A woman."

Li Xian covered his forehead, "It's also a sin to be too handsome."

Di Qing later claimed to have a human appearance. In order to cover up his handsome appearance, he wore a copper mask when fighting to increase his intimidation.

"Who is that woman?" Li Xian suddenly became interested.

"The niece of Lu Yijian's family."

"Who?" Li Xian was stunned, and then laughed loudly, "Old Lu, Old Lu, I can shame you now! Hahahaha!"
