"alright."
Cao Miaoxin took Zhao Qingyun from Zhao Jun and said, "Husband, we'll go first."
"Um."
Zhao Jun nodded and said, "Keep an eye on Qingyun. This child is impulsive. At only four years old, she's already following you in brandishing swords and clubs. Be careful not to hurt anyone in the palace."
"knew."
Cao Miaoxin took her children and headed north towards Xuanyou Gate.
The officials held a banquet in the Southern Palace, hosted by Emperor Zhao Zhen, while the family members held a banquet in the Northern Palace, hosted by Empress Cao.
Zhao Qingyun is different from her brother. Zhao Tan's personality is more like Zhao Jun. Zhao Jun can see at a glance that this kid is a reserved and narcissistic type. He is well-educated and always thinks he is very powerful. He likes to stand on a high position and point fingers at others. He gets very aggressive when he gets angry. He is too similar to him when he was in junior high and high school. If Zhao Tan traveled to the third year of Jingyou, he would probably be fooled by Yan Shu and others as well.
Zhao Qingyun is just like her mother. She is only five years old and has no scheming at all. She is as carefree as a girl from Northeast China. She also likes to wield swords and sticks, and will beat people if she makes her angry.
The only good news is that Cao Miaoxin has strict family education, and Zhao Jun has been teaching them the correct values, outlook on life, and values, and shaping their kind nature.
Once, Zhao Qingyun bullied her classmates in kindergarten.
Although she certainly didn't realize that this was bullying, Cao Miaoxin still taught her a lesson severely. Zhao Jun didn't let her go, so he let Cao Miaoxin beat her with a bamboo stick and took her to apologize to others.
Therefore, the couple has always taken good care of the two children in terms of their behavior. At least they have not spoiled two little yamen. Otherwise, where would Zhao Jun put his face?
After watching his wife and children walk into the Xuanyou Gate, Zhao Jun turned around and walked into the Zuo Chengtian Gate.
The young eunuch at the door saw him and hurried forward and said, "Master."
"Well, has the official arrived?"
"not yet."
"What time does the banquet start?"
"Right away."
"good."
Zhao Jun nodded.
Led by the young eunuch, they went all the way to the main hall inside Chengtian Gate.
There were not many people in the hall at this moment, only Jia Changchao, Xia Song, Zheng Jian and Du Yan.
They have less experience and are still relatively young, so naturally they should arrive first.
The others, such as Zhang Shixun and Li Di, who have more experience, will be slower.
"Zhiyuan."
Seeing Zhao Jun coming, the four people stood up to greet him.
In the Constitutional Court, only a few people are qualified to call him by his name.
With the deaths of Lü Yijian, Wang Zeng, Wang Sui, Sheng Du and others, there are only Yan Shu, Fan Zhongyan, Cai Qi and Song Shou left.
The rest of the people need to remain respectful to him.
"You all came quite early."
Zhao Jun laughed and said, "I live outside Xihua Gate. I thought I was the first one to arrive."
Xia Song smiled and said, "I heard that the government is going to display lights today, so of course we have to get there early."
As he spoke, he pointed to the light bulb above his head.
Although the power plant had been built, it was not supplied to the public, but was first supplied to the imperial palace.
This is not because Zhao Zhen is selfish, but it is easy to take the lead in this way.
By showing the function of electric lights to officials and common people, it will be easy for people to see that there is something that can change darkness and change the world.
"This electric light is a great thing. From now on, our Song Dynasty will say goodbye to the darkness."
Zhao Jun looked at the light bulb hanging in the room. Under the guidance of the eunuch, he took the first position below Zhao Zhen. Then he smiled and said, "Your Majesty has done a great deed. From now on, our Song Dynasty will enter the era of electricity."
"As soon as I came in, I heard Hanlong flattering the official."
Yan Shu almost stepped into the hall as fast as he could, and said with a smile: "You two, grandparents and grandchildren, really feel uncomfortable if you don't flatter each other for a day, right?"
"How can that be considered bragging?"
Zhao Jun rolled his eyes at the old man and said, "When the emperor praises me, it's because his descendants are so successful. I praise the emperor because I see that our ancestors worked so hard under my spur and lived up to my expectations, which makes me feel proud and gratified."
"Well said."
Fan Zhongyan also walked in and said with a smile: "We have all seen your Majesty's efforts over the years. If your Majesty does not do well, your subjects should advise you. If your Majesty does well, your subjects should of course encourage you."
"Hahahaha, Old Fan is still sensible."
Zhao Jun laughed.
Yan Shu rolled his eyes and came over to sit down and said, "You are a bunch of flatterers."
A few people were chatting and laughing, and the outside became more and more lively.
If you look down from a high altitude, you will see that among the expanded palaces of the Song Dynasty, there are countless palaces, gardens, pavilions and towers.
The inner and outer palaces were connected, and the Zuoye Gate on the south side was wide open. Countless officials entered one after another.
They entered the palace in groups and in an orderly manner according to their rank.
Many officials dressed in cyan and green clothes only had this one chance to enter the palace every year, and they all looked around curiously.
In addition, Zhao Zhen also invited all the elderly people in the city over 80 years old, regardless of their wealth, to sit down and attend the banquet.
He also ordered that the money from the imperial treasury be used to deliver oil, grain, salt and money to the five-guarantee households and poor families throughout the city.
This can be regarded as extra care during the four major festivals every year: Chinese New Year, Lantern Festival, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, bringing warmth to the poor people in Kaifeng.
Not long after, the other prime ministers arrived one after another. The sky gradually darkened and it was already three quarters past You.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
At this moment, Wang Shouzhong came out from the back hall and shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty!"
Everyone stood up and saluted Zhao Zhen.
This hall is of the highest level, and even the second-rank ministers of the first-level ministries and agencies are not qualified to enter.
