Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

In the early morning of the second day, the sky was not yet bright, but Zheqiu had already come to the palace to participate in the morning court!

Now the emperor does not come to the early court, he is the highest official in the court as a privy envoy, and he has the final say on all matters! Now he is never tired of morning court! The feeling of ordering the world made him very excited!

The morning was over, and Zhe Keqiu hurried back to his home!

There was still light snow falling in the sky, the servants at the door swept the snow off Zhe Keqiu's clothes, and Zhe Keqiu asked, "Where is Miss now?"

A servant said: "Miss is painting in the garden behind!"

"In such a cold weather, she is still painting! I'll go and see her!" Zhe Keqiu said.

Zhe Keqiu then brought a few guards towards the garden of Zhefu, and when he came to the garden, Zhe Keqiu ordered the guards to stop, and he strode into the garden!

The garden is covered with snow, and there is snow everywhere on the ground, walls, and branches!

In this piece of white snow, a woman is standing in front of a table! Rice paper was spread on the table, with brushes, ink, paper and inkstone on it, and there were a few maidservants waiting on it with umbrellas!

The woman is wearing a white moon dress, and she is bowing her head to paint at the moment!

Zhe Keqiu came to the woman's side lightly, and didn't disturb the woman, but waited for her to finish the painting!

After a full quarter of an hour, the woman stopped. She raised her head and said in surprise, "Daddy, when did you come?"

Zhe Keqiu said softly, "I also just entered the garden, and I saw you painting, so I just watched from the sidelines!"

The woman smiled and said, "Daddy, do you like my painting?"

The painting is a vast white world, with occasional weeds in the white snow, which looks extremely depressed! There is a man in the painting. This man is in his fifties. He is wearing armor and riding a horse. He is shooting an arrow with both hands.

This painting is lifelike, and the characters are also charming, it can be regarded as a good painting! There is also a poem next to the painting, "If you want to chase Qingqi away, the bow and knife will be covered with heavy snow"!

Zhe Keqiu showed a gratified smile on his face, and said: "This painting is very good, I want to put it away and treasure it properly!"

The woman said with a charming smile: "This is just a random painting by my daughter, it's not worth collecting! If Daddy wants to keep it, I'll spend half a month painting for Daddy, that's the way to go!"

Zhe Keqiu sighed softly, and said, "This is already very good! Very good!"

For some reason, Zhe Keqiu suddenly felt very guilty! His daughter, who was born in his forties, loves her very much! It can be said that his love for his two sons combined is not as good as this daughter! He never thought of using his daughter as a "tool" before! But since he came to Hanzhong, since he had the idea of ​​coercing the emperor to make the princes, he has twice used his daughter as a tool! Last time, he wanted to marry his daughter to Qu Duan's son, but Qu Duan didn't agree! Now, he is going to marry his daughter to a trash emperor! Everything he does is for his own power, but can he use his daughter as a tool for the sake of power?

"What's wrong with Dad?" The woman asked a little strangely.

"It's nothing...it's nothing..." Zhe Keqiu suddenly felt his eyes moist!

Anyway, he is also a human being, and he also has normal human emotions! When he was with Ori Yanwen before, he could talk about his daughter without any scruples, and he could use her as a tool without shame! But at this moment, when he was really facing his daughter, the weakest part of his heart was touched, and he couldn't help it at this moment!

He wiped his eyes with his hands, and said with a smile, "Snow drifts into my eyes, and my eyes are a bit blurry!"

The woman laughed and said, "Father is afraid that he is worrying about state affairs, so his eyes hurt! Daddy, since I came to Hanzhong, the number of times I see you has become less and less! You can't just worry about state affairs and not care about your daughter?"

Zhe Keqiu forced a smile and said, "How is this possible? You are Daddy's heart, and in Daddy's heart, nothing is as important as you!"

The woman smiled and said: "This is the best! Daddy, it's snowing a little bit hard, let's go back!"

Zhe Keqiu nodded and said, "Okay!"

He was going to talk to his daughter about getting married, but at this moment it was a bit difficult to say!

At that moment, the father and daughter headed out of the garden, while the maids stayed there to clean up the table!

Zhe Keqiu kept silent all the way, after walking for a while, the woman asked strangely: "Daddy, what happened to you today?"

Zhe Keqiu thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "Yueru, I have something important to tell you!"

It turns out that this woman's boudoir name is Zheyueru! At that moment, Zhe Yueru nodded, looked at Zhe Keqiu with sparkling eyes, and said, "Just say what Daddy wants to say!"

Zhe Keqiu stopped, and said: "Yueru, you are not young anymore! You are already sixteen this year, and you are already a big girl! When other people's daughters are as old as you, they are already married! "

Zhe Yueru said: "Is the father going to discuss marriage matters with his daughter?"

Zhe Keqiu said: "Not bad!"

Zhe Yueru was silent for a moment, then said softly: "Daddy, marriage is always the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. How can there be any reason for a father and daughter to discuss it?"

The daughter is so well-behaved, but Zhe Keqiu felt even more guilty in his heart. He almost wanted to change his mind, and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of man do you like, Yueru?"

A blush appeared on Zheyueru's fair face, and she turned to one side. After a long time, she said in a very low voice: "My daughter likes to be tall, handsome and mighty, just like her father. Young man! My daughter doesn't want those frail scholars!"

Zhe Keqiu felt uncomfortable, he sighed again, and said: "My father has found a marriage for you, and he will definitely be your good match in the future!"

Zhe Yueru was extremely shy, and said: "Don't talk about it, Daddy! From ancient times to the present, it is the order of parents. Since Daddy has made a decision, the child must obey!"

Gritting his teeth, Zhe Keqiu decided to tell his daughter everything, saying, "That man is the current emperor!"

"What?" Zhe Yueru stayed there!

Although she stays in the Zhefu all the year round and rarely leaves the Zhefu, she is a standard lady of this era. She has imagined what the future husband will look like, but she never thought that that person would be the emperor!

She also heard people talking about the emperor! The emperor at that time was only 11 years old, so young was fine, but I heard that the emperor liked hunting and often stayed outside all day long. Apart from hunting, the only thing the emperor liked was carpenter! The emperor is the only carpenter emperor in all over the world, and the people outside are laughing at the emperor! She never dreamed that the "good match" her father called was actually the young emperor of the dynasty! She is not willing to marry such a fatuous emperor! This emperor is by no means a "good match"!

Her life's major events were decided by her father in this way, and her future husband turned out to be a fatuous emperor who only knew how to eat, drink and play, and liked carpentry. For a moment, Zhe Yueru felt her heart was about to break, and her body trembled slightly!

"Yueru, being a father is a last resort!" Seeing his daughter's face turning pale, Zhe Keqiu explained distressedly.

"Don't talk about it, Daddy, the child will obey!" Zhe Yueru said suddenly after being silent for a long time.

"You child, if you are really dissatisfied, just tell me, Daddy won't force you!" Zhe Keqiu sighed.

"My father asked me to marry the emperor, it must be for the sake of my family's future! My father raised me up, and his kindness is higher than the sky. How can my daughter go against my father's wishes! My daughter started reading when she was young. The book talks about three obediences and four virtues. Marrying and obeying the father, this is the virtue of a woman, a daughter understands this truth!" Zhe Yueru said.

"Hey! Don't worry, Daddy will marry you off in a glorious manner! The emperor is only young, but he is actually extremely intelligent! I heard from those guards that the emperor is very kind to people! Besides, you are a father. It's impossible for him to bully you outside!" Zhe Keqiu said.

"Yes, my daughter understands! If there is nothing else, my daughter will leave first!" Zhe Yueru said.

As she spoke, she couldn't help but move forward. At this moment, she saw that her tears were already dripping down! She was afraid that her father would see her gaffe, so she wanted to leave! Just walking, she almost swayed and almost fell to the ground!

"Go and see Miss!" Zhe Ke begged for the convenience of catching up, he said to the maidservants behind, and those maidservants rushed to catch up, not to mention that.

Zhe Keqiu stood in the snow for a long time, but his expression was still struggling! But after a while, as if he had made up his mind, he clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes became firm again!

"For the future of my Zhe family, sacrificing a daughter is nothing! If my Zhe family can occupy the Central Plains in the future, I want the descendants of the Zhe family to remember Yueru's dedication to the Zhe family! Xiao The emperor is indeed unbearable, but I will let him live in peace for the rest of his life! Forget it, let’s go! There are a lot of state affairs these days, and I have to deal with them properly! After Hanzhong and Sichuan and Shu are stabilized, I will consider Guanshan What happened!" Zhe Keqiu muttered to himself for a while, then strode away into the distance!

*****

Zhao Chen was working as a carpenter in the palace, Kang An saw that there was no one around, and came in again!

"Sit down quickly and bring me the saw!" Zhao Chen said.

Kang An hurriedly brought the saw over, rolled his eyes around, and said softly: "Your Majesty, didn't you say to follow my advice and concentrate on handling state affairs? Why are you still doing this?"

Zhao Chen hesitated for a moment, and said, "Even if I want to deal with state affairs, it's impossible!"

"Impossible?" Kang An was taken aback, and said: "Your Majesty is saying that you can ask for a discount to prevent you from handling state affairs? That's right! That's the truth!"

"I didn't say anything!" Zhao Chen laughed.

"Your Majesty, I understand!" Kang An said.

"What do you understand?" Zhao Chen asked.

"Your Majesty is forced to become a carpenter!" Kang An said.

"Actually, I really like being a carpenter!" Zhao Chen laughed again.

Kang An was at a loss by Zhao Chen and didn't know Zhao Chen's true intentions! But he vaguely felt that His Majesty was forced into this state by Zhe Keqiu! Thinking that the emperor was not unwilling to deal with state affairs, not that he was unwilling to be a wise king, but that he had no choice, he suddenly felt a lot easier! He is not afraid of a difficult road ahead, since he chose to fight against Zhe Keqiu, he decided to go all the way to the dark, and now he has no way to turn back, he is afraid that the emperor will be incompetent and a fool, then there is nothing he can do! Well now, he finally came to the conclusion that the emperor is not a fool, with a smile all over his face!

"Your Majesty, rumors have spread that Zheke wants to betroth his daughter to His Majesty and make his daughter a queen!" Kang An said again.

"What?" Zhao Chen was really surprised this time!

In the palace, except for Kang An, no one would tell him the outside news, so he didn't know about it at all!

"Your Majesty, I hope you are going to be the head of the country! Your Majesty is young, if he becomes the head of the country, he will be able to manage state affairs more legitimately!" Kang An said.

Zhao Chen was secretly trying to figure out what was in his mind, and at the same time he was thinking about Kang An's mind! In his opinion, Kang An analyzed such secret things for himself. If he still said that he was a spy sent by Ke Keqiu now, it would be impossible!

"What kind of person is Zhe Keqiu's daughter?" Zhao Chen thought for a moment, then said.

"Zhe Keqiu's daughter is well-known in the Northwest. She used to be a well-known talented woman in the Northwest. She was proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting! Before the Jurchen invasion, countless families in the Northwest proposed to Zhe Keqiu, but they heard that Zhe Keqiu cherished her daughter and never let her daughter go. Get married! Now my daughter is sixteen years old and will be seventeen next year. She is already a big girl! Wei Chen thought he would marry his daughter to a well-matched family, but he did not think that he would use her as a tool , to marry His Majesty!" Kang An said.

"Understood!" Zhao Chen nodded.

"Your Majesty must refuse Zhe Keqiu, and not let Zhe Keqiu send his daughter to the palace!" Kang An said.

"Why should I refuse?" Zhao Chen said flatly!

Zhao Chen continued to do carpentry while talking, he was carving a small wooden attic, the attic is very delicate! Seeing him working so hard on carpentry, Kang An was anxious and restless!
