Chapter 348 Betrothed!

Lying down, Song Huizong slowly expressed his thoughts.

After listening to Song Huizong's words, Empress Xiansu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, my concubine said before that if the king of Yan has made great achievements one day, his majesty will not be able to reward him at that time. Now he has captured the Liao Kingdom. The number one hero of the Song Dynasty has done something that officials of all dynasties have never done, it is a bit difficult to reward him!"

"Now everyone in the world is watching, Wu Zhi himself is the Duke of Zhen, or the King of Yan, and he has a fief, what else can he be rewarded for?"

Empress Xiansu raised her head from below Song Huizong, wiped the corners of her mouth, and continued: "Now that he has made great contributions and his status is so high, what I worry about is that one day his contributions will be too great, and His Majesty will have nothing to reward him.

Moreover, if he thinks that he has made great contributions and thinks that he brought down the world, what does His Majesty think he will do? "

Hearing this, Song Huizong was used to it. He smiled and said, "Queen, you worry too much. I know Wu Zhi's character better than you. If he really wants to be emperor, he doesn't have to come back when he conquers the Liao Kingdom. I can't handle him either.

But he is back!

What does this mean?It shows that he has no such idea at all, I still know something!I really have this idea, the vast land of the Liao Kingdom, where he is an emperor, does he need to come back to the Song Dynasty? "

"This..." Upon hearing this, Empress Xiansu was also taken aback, thinking that what the official said was very reasonable.

If this is the case, why didn't he proclaim himself emperor in Liao Kingdom?
Empress Xiansu: "Maybe his family is on Da Song's side, so it's not easy for him to do this!"

Song Huizong shook his head: "King Yan really wants to be emperor, he can take away his family in advance, even if he doesn't take over, King Yan's ability is there, he can even lead troops to attack the Song Dynasty, Liao and Jin are not his opponents , if he attacks the Song Dynasty after rectifying the Liao Kingdom, who can resist?"

Hearing this, Empress Xiansu's face was shocked.

If you analyze it this way, it's really...why didn't King Yan proclaim himself emperor in the Liao Kingdom directly, and then returned to the Song Dynasty?
What does this prove?
He has no such thoughts at all!
Song Huizong smiled and said: "Queen, you still don't understand my brother! If he has such thoughts, I can't beat him, don't you understand?
This is also the reason why I have taken a fancy to him. At the beginning, he led the army several times, and he had this ability, and it is even more so now, but King Yan is still back! "

"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about how to award rewards!"

Song Huizong was more troubled by this problem. In his opinion, it was due to Wu Zhi that Da Song was able to have what he is today. Whether he came back or not, Song Huizong also knew that he was not Wu Zhi's opponent at all.

Therefore, he fully believed that Wu Zhi would not do this.

If my brother really wants to do this, isn't it enough that the Liao Kingdom is so big?
When Huizong of Song Dynasty came back from Wu Zhi, he was completely relieved. Now that some people say these things, he just laughed them off.

On the contrary, he felt that he didn't have to worry about having a brother like King Yan, which was more in line with his character.

At this time.

As for the issue of rewards, Song Huizong suddenly thought of one: "Since King Yan is so capable, he should be the prime minister of our Great Song Dynasty! How about... I dismissed that Cai Jing and let Wu Zhi be the prime minister."

"This idea seems to be good! Anyway, Cai Jingdang is definitely not as good as Wu Zhi as prime minister."

When Queen Xiansu heard this, her heart tightened.

She is in a hurry!

Recently, Cai Jing often gives gifts to Empress Xiansu, and the relationship between the two seems to be in the same camp.

In other words, Empress Xiansu found Cai Jing first, hoping to get Wu Zhi to step down.

The two hit it off right away, and Empress Xiansu would often be with the officials, and she could say some rumors that were not in her ears to affect the officials.

Since they are on the same boat, Song Huizong now wants to get rid of Cai Jing, which is impossible.

Empress Xiansu smiled: "Your Majesty, Cai Jing has been the left minister of the court for many years, and a group of them came against Wu Zhi. If Cai Jing is dismissed, Wu Zhi's family is the only one in the court. I don't have any thoughts, so I won't talk about it in the future.

The concubine felt that Cai Jing should not be dismissed, and let him check and balance Wu Zhi. Although he is not an opponent, it is better than nothing. "

Song Huizong: "The situation in the court, I have learned a little about this since I was a child. Although King Yan has no idea, it is really taboo for the court to be dominant. Even if it is not Wu Zhi, this situation cannot happen. Then you think it should be How to reward?"

Empress Xiansu: "Your Majesty, why don't you dismiss Zeng Bu!"

"Zeng Bu?" Song Huizong shook his head: "This Prime Minister Zeng Bu has done a good job, and he hasn't made any mistakes. I have no reason to dismiss him, and he used to be the teacher of King Yan!"

Empress Xiansu: "Then it's even more necessary to dismiss him and weaken the influence of King Yan and his group!"

Song Huizong smiled and said: "It is impossible to dismiss Zeng Bu. Zeng Bu confronted me many times before. I have this idea. Now Zeng Bu has not made any mistakes, and he is the teacher of King Yan. I have no reason. How would King Yan think about dismissing Zeng Bu?
He just laid down this great country for me, and I dismissed his teacher when I turned around. What will people in the world think when the news spreads? "

Song Huizong shook his head: "Since these two people are not suitable for dismissal, then give other rewards!"

Then Song Huizong fell into deep thought, and really couldn't think of any good way to reward him.

Empress Xiansu saw that Song Huizong seemed to have dispelled this idea, and suddenly thought of something in her heart, and said: "Your Majesty, if you talk about rewards, you can give him the title of Grand Master!"

"I have thought about this too, but I am afraid that the position of grand master is not enough." Song Huizong said with a smile: "King Yan conquered the entire Liao Kingdom, a big country!"

"That's right!" Song Huizong said: "Empress, you just said that King Yan's status is too high, what are you afraid of in the future?
Although I don't doubt this, but after your reminder, I remembered that if I want King Yan to avoid these hidden dangers, I can adopt the system of marriage.

If King Yan is a member of the royal family, naturally there will be no other problems. It is a win-win situation for both Zhen and King Yan! "

Empress Xiansu was taken aback: "Your Majesty wants to get married?"

"That's right!" Song Huizong said: "If you don't know how to reward him, then marry my daughter to him, so that he is a member of the Song royal family, and I don't doubt him, this is more suitable!

Queen, you reminded me well, this is a good way, although I and King Yan are called brothers, but betrothing him to a princess is not a bad thing. "

Empress Xiansu was stunned, did she remind her?
This……

If Wu Zhi really married the princess, the threat would indeed be reduced, but it wasn't complete!

Empress Xiansu disagreed.

Song Huizong: "I just don't know which of my daughters to marry her!"

Empress Xiansu was a little anxious. She was always worried that Wu Zhi would threaten the status of the official family. Naturally, she didn't want to see Wu Zhi become bigger. She and Cai Jing were together.

Empress Xiansu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the King of Yan has a wife and a concubine in his family. If he betroths the princess, the King of Yan will divorce his wife and remarry. If this is the case, the King of Yan will definitely not agree. The relationship between the king and his wife is very good, but His Majesty's actions are counterproductive!"

Empress Xiansu did not want Wu Zhi to get close to the royal family.

Song Huizong nodded: "It makes sense, if the King of Yan disagrees, this matter will not be completed, so forget it!"

Song Huizong thought that it would definitely not be good for his daughter to be Wu Zhi's concubine.

Of course, thinking that the entire Liao Kingdom was ruled by the Song Dynasty, and it was imperative to win over King Yan, Song Huizong still felt that this matter could not be left alone.

What Song Huizong thought was that he had many daughters, so finding one to marry Wu Zhi was not a big problem.

Just being a concubine doesn't sound good!
This made Song Huizong difficult.

the next day.

The back garden of Yanfu Palace.

Song Huizong called Wu Zhi to Cuju.

Among them is Gao Lian.

"Wei Chen sees His Majesty!"

"I have seen King Yan!"

After Gao Qiu came, he saluted His Majesty with a smiling face, and he was also very polite when he saw Wu Zhi.

Now Gao Qiu is really in awe of Wu Zhi and admires him very much.

There is no way, the main reason is that if you can't do Wu Zhi, you can only not offend.

Now Gao Qiu doesn't curry favor with Cai Jing, nor offend Wu Zhi, so he concentrates on his sports department.

Later, when he heard that Wu Zhi captured the Liao Kingdom, Gao Qiu couldn't recover for a long time when he heard the news.

Because it happened so fast.

He also became more and more unable to see through Wu Zhi, and he really didn't want to be an enemy of such a ruthless person.

After Gao Qiu came, he wondered what His Majesty called them here for?
Gao Qiu didn't ask much.

Everyone played Cuju in the garden for a while, and then sat down to drink tea.

While chatting, Song Huizong smiled and said, "King Yan, I have something to discuss with you."

Wu Zhi: "Your Majesty, just say what you want, and I will do it!"

Song Huizong laughed and said, "It's better to ask your opinion on this matter! You and I are brothers, and I don't want to embarrass you!"

Song Huizong didn't make any detours, and then said: "Zhen, I intend to betroth my daughter to you. I don't know what King Yan has in mind?"

Although it was a betrothal, Song Huizong still had to respect Wu Zhi's ideas. When the imperial decree was announced and Wu Zhi was not happy, then his award would lose its meaning.
