At the entrance of the Royal Garden.
Kou Ji's mouth twitched when he heard Zhao Zhen's long sighs.
The same is true for Chen Lin.
Kou Ji thought about it and walked towards Zhao Zhen.
Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, raised her hand and opened her mouth, but said nothing.
Kou Ji said loudly as he walked: "Chen Kou Ji, see the official house."
When Zhao Zhen heard the words, a beam of joy flashed across his face.
"Kou Aiqing is here?!"
When Zhao Zhen saw Kou Ji walking in strides, his heart turned.
To Empress Cao and Zhang Clan next to him, he whispered, "You stay here, I will try Kou Aiqing's skills."
The smiles on Empress Cao and Zhang's faces were a bit stiff.
Zhao Zhen didn't talk to them anymore, but stepped suddenly and rushed towards Kou Ji.
"Kou Aiqing sees boxing..."
Seeing Zhao Zhen rushing over, Kou Ji raised his brows.
He clenched his fist slightly, and when Zhao Zhen pounced, he avoided him and blasted his fist.
Of course.
Zhao Zhenqin has practiced martial arts for many years, and the pace of dodge is several times more proficient than Kou Ji, and he dodges Kou Ji's fist by just bowing his head.
Kou Ji saw a miss, and quickly opened the distance.
Since Zhao Zhen started martial arts, remember Kou Ji's reminder that he has never slackened in martial arts, and he has practiced diligently for several years, and martial arts is not weak.
Kou Ji only followed Cao Xu and learned some superficial methods, far from being Zhao Zhen's opponent.
Naturally, he would not be so stupid to go head-to-head with Zhao Zhen, but chose to deal with it skillfully.
Chen Lin, Empress Cao, and Zhang's family saw Zhao Zhen and Kou Jiyou fighting together. They looked sad, and they didn't smile when they saw Zhao Zhen playing with the eunuchs.
There is no other reason.
Kou Ji really dared to make a move.
As long as he catches the opportunity, Zhao Zhen will definitely be cruel.
Zhao Zhen was mourning alone in the palace before, and when Kou Ji entered the palace to comfort him, he was once dragged and beaten by Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen relies on martial arts to be stronger than Kou Ji, and fights against Kou Ji.
Kou Ji had a bruised nose and a swollen face.
Kou Ji is also ruthless.
Don't shout or shout.
Accompany Zhao Zhen to deal with.
When Zhao Zhen's patience was exhausted and his flaws were exposed, he hit Zhao Zhen's abdomen severely.
Zhao Zhen fell to the ground on the spot, and did not get up even after several breaths.
At that time, Empress Cao, Zhang Shi, and Chen Lin were almost not scared to death.
If it weren't for Zhao Zhen to stop him, I'm afraid Kou Ji would go to the prison of the Ministry of Justice for a walk.
…
"Boom!"
Zhao Zhen hit Kou Ji's chest with a punch, and Kou Ji felt that his internal organs became hot instantly, very uncomfortable.
Zhao Zhen hit and shot again.
Kou Ji hurried back.
Zhao Zhen chased and shouted, "Don't run..."
"Look at the shooting stars?!"
Kou Ji's retreating figure suddenly stood still, staring at the horizon, and screamed in astonishment.
Zhao Zhen was taken aback, and subconsciously looked back.
Empress Cao and Zhang cried hurriedly when they saw this.
"Officials, you are in the middle!"
However, their reminders were too late.
Kou Ji clenched his fists, rushed forward, and punched Zhao Zhen's back in shock.
"Boom!"
The nosebleeds flowed down Zhao Zhen's nostrils in an instant.
Empress Cao, Zhang's family, Chen Lin, and a group of eunuchs and Gong E hurriedly rushed over.
"Kou Ji! You are bold!"
"It's none of Kou Aiqing's business!"
Chen Lin screamed.
Zhao Zhen held his nose to defend Kou Ji.
Kou Ji just stood where he was, rolled his eyes, and bowed very cohesively: "The minister is deadly..."
Chen Lin called fiercely, but ignored Kou Ji, and quickly rushed in front of Zhao Zhen.
Everyone was rushing towards Zhao Zhen in a hurry.
Kou Ji stood alone.
Kou Ji looked at Zhao Zhen being surrounded by people, rubbed his chest, rubbed his eye sockets, twitched the corners of his mouth painfully, and muttered.
"Childish..."
Zhao Zhen stopped the nosebleed under the wait of the crowd. Two hemostatic objects were found in his nostrils, and he pushed the crowd away and appeared in front of Kou Ji.
"I was still hit by you..."
"The death penalty..."
Kou Ji again pleaded guilty.
Empress Cao, Zhang's family, and Chen Lin knew that Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen had a deep affection between the monarchs and ministers, but they looked at Kou Ji bitterly, but didn't chase Kou Ji and yelled to kill.
Zhao Zhen waved his hand and said, "I forgive you for your innocence. In the world, you are the only one who will not be used to me. And only you can let me see myself clearly."
Kou Ji squeezed a perfunctory smile on his face and said, "Officials, are we having enough trouble?"
The expression on Zhao Zhen's face froze, and he told the people beside him: "You go down first."
Empress Cao, the Zhang family, and a group of Gong E and eunuchs, withdrew from the Imperial Garden.
Only Zhao Zhen, Kou Ji, and Chen Lin remained in the Imperial Garden.
Zhao Zhen sighed, "Fourth brother, can't you help me maintain my face before others?"
Kou Ji handed his hand: "The minister is also to let the officials see him clearly."
Zhao Zhen curled his lips, knowing that the quarrel couldn't be compared to Kou Ji, so he did not continue.
"Fourth brother went to the palace to find me this time, what happened?"
Kou Ji covered his chest and said angrily: "The official vents the minister, and if he hurts the minister, don't you plan to find an imperial doctor to show him?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhen immediately told Chen Lin: "Go to the imperial doctor and prepare some mountain ginseng, deer antler, etc., and bring them to the fourth brother."
Chen Lin glanced at Kou Ji, agreed, and left the Imperial Garden.
Zhao Zhen stared at Kou Ji and said quietly, "Is it enough?"
Kou Ji smiled lightly, "Enough..."
Zhao Zhen led Kou Ji, sat down in the pavilion in the imperial garden, and asked, "Fourth brother is entering the palace this time, what happened?"
Kou Ji took out an invitation from his chest and placed it in front of Zhao Zhen.
"Seven days later, Wenchang Academy opens. My grandfather invites you to come over."
Zhao Zhen picked up the invitation, rolled his eyes, and said in deep thought: "The Taishi invited me for the important event of the imperial court, and I will naturally go."
Kou Ji nodded and said, "In addition, there is one more thing that needs to be discussed with the official."
Zhao Zhen stretched out his hands, "but it doesn't hurt to say."
Kou Ji said: "The minister alone funded the Wenchang Academy and was criticized. My grandfather and some famous scholars also felt that it was not appropriate to fund the Wenchang Academy by the Kou Mansion alone.
Therefore, the minister planned to let Yizijiaozipu fund the Wenchang Academy in the name of an official family.
I don't know what the officials want. "
There was a deep thought on Zhao Zhen's tender cheeks. Xu Xu said: "The Taishi founded the Academy for the imperial court to cultivate talents. I originally wanted to use Neiku's money to fund the Taishi.
It's just that Li Aiqing didn't think it was appropriate and blocked the matter.
After I pondered it carefully, I also felt wrong. If I privately fund the Wenchang Academy, I am afraid that the Jijiu and Ph.Ds of Taixue and Guozijian would not agree.
I am still annoyed by not being able to fund the Wenchang Academy. Unexpectedly, my fourth brother had already figured out a way for me. "
After hearing what Zhao Zhen said, Kou Ji rolled his eyes.
Zhao Zhen was taken aback, and said with a bitter face: "In recent days, in order to deal with the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, I have become accustomed to the scenes... Fourth brother, don't mind."
After a pause, Zhao Zhen said grandiosely: "Four brothers intends to let Yizijiaozipu fund the Wenchang Academy to help me become famous and buy people's hearts. I naturally agree.
It's just that this matter needs to be done secretly, don't let Li Aiqing know. "
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
Zhao Zhen mentioned Li Di, a little helpless, "In order to support Zhu Aiqing's military expedition, Li Aiqing emptied the national treasury. Now there is no money in the national treasury, and he owes a foreign debt.
Li Aiqing now regards wealth as fate, as long as it is money that can seize the opportunity to take a bite, he will never let go.
Vowed to fill up the treasury.
If he knew that I had used Yizijiaozipu's money to fund the Wenchang Academy, he would definitely realize that I had made a lot of money from Yizijiaozipu, and would definitely miss my inner treasury. "
It's okay for Zhao Zhen not to mention this stubble, but Kou Ji feels angry when he mentions it.
Kou Ji faintly said: "The minister listened to Li Gong, you tell him that the minister is very rich."
Zhao Zhen gave a dry smile and said, "I was forced by Li Aiqing to be too helpless."
Kou Ji groaned: "The officials have money in their hands, and there is still a lot of money. The officials did not see the officials squandering, and what they did with the money.
Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment, clenched his fists, and said in a deep voice, "I want to make the deposit in the closed pile library more generous."
Kou Ji doubted: "As far as the minister knows, there is already a lot of money saved in the lockdown vault..."
Zhao Zhen looked sad and shook his head, "There are some things that I only discovered recently. Some insiders are either dead or dare not mention it.
When Taizu was in power, he saved a lot of money in the Fengzhu library.
After Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, he expeded the Liao country three times and was exhausted.
In his later years, he tried his best to fill up the money in the closed pile library.
After my father became the throne, he not only didn't save money in the lockdown library, he also spent most of it. "
Kou Ji looked surprised when he heard this.
Feng Zhuangku is now in the hands of Liu Heng.
Kou Ji often talked to Liu Heng about the closed pile library, but Liu Heng never mentioned the huge changes in the amount of money in the closed pile library.
Liu Heng will not conceal Kou Ji on such matters.
So Liu Heng certainly didn't know the changes in the money in the closed pile vault before he took over.
It must be Emperor Zhao Guangyi of Emperor Taizong and Emperor Zhao Heng of Zhenzong who did a lot of cover-ups when they embezzled the money from the Fengzhu treasury privately, and cleared the beginning and the end.
Zhao Zhen should have known this from Chen Lin, or some old eunuchs and old women living in the deep palace.
Through Zhao Zhen's words, Kou Ji can easily judge these.
Kou Ji was not surprised at all that Emperor Taizong Zhao Guangyi and Emperor Zhenzong Zhao Heng misappropriated the money from the Fengzong treasury.
During the reign of Emperor Taizong Zhao Guangyi, he spent many years in the Southern and Northern Wars.
Although it is rarely effective, after fighting so many battles, it must be burned, and a lot of money must be burned.
Therefore, it is inevitable to seal the money in the pile library.
During the reign of Emperor Zhenzong Zhao Heng, he did many ridiculous things that burned money.
For example, going to Mount Tai with fanfare to enshrine meditation, building a large number of palaces for cultivating immortals, launching the ten-year "Book of Heaven" movement, etc., are all things that burn money.
A large amount of money in the national treasury is spent on public use, raising a large group of idle and useless officials, and a large group of soldiers and horses that have been eroded.
There is not much money that can be provided for Emperor Zhao Heng of Zhenzong to spend.
Emperor Zhenzong, Zhao Heng, had to embezzle the money in the lockdown library to do ridiculous things.
Therefore, Kou Ji is not surprised.
What he was really surprised was that in the Taizong and Zhenzong dynasties, the Song Palace, which could not hide the secret, actually hid a secret.
Kou Ji sighed in his heart, and said: "The imperial court allocates a portion of the money from the treasury to the closed vault every year. Why should the officials work hard to post money for the closed vault?"
Zhao Zhen said sternly: "Tai Zong's reign spent most of the money in the lockdown library, and the three campaigns in Liao were to no avail. I thought, it may be that there is not enough money to supply the army for the long-term expedition .
I want to save more money, more money than Taizong spent before.
When I have the ability, I will send troops north, and then conquer Liao.
At that time, I will use the money pile, and I will tear a piece of meat from the Liao State. "
Kou Ji was in a daze when he heard this.
He was a little doubtful that Zhao Zhen in front of him was the emperor in history who called himself benevolence.
Seeing Kou Ji's look strange, Zhao Zhen asked in a deep voice, "Fourth brother doubts my determination?"
Kou Ji was stunned for a moment, but didn't speak up.
He thought a lot in his mind.
According to historical records, Zhao Zhen did a lot of things during his reign.
With the determination to restructure, there was the Qingli New Deal.
Determined to fight in the South and North, so he sent troops to Xixia.
Only in the end all ended in failure.
There is determination, no perseverance, no patience.
This is Kou Ji's evaluation of Zhao Zhen when he was watching history books.
Now, under the influence of Zhao Zhen, Kou Ji remembered his evaluation of Zhao Zhen when he was watching history books.
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, and said: "The minister does not doubt the determination of the official, the minister only doubts the patience and perseverance of the official."
Zhao Zhen said in a puzzled way: "There is something in the fourth brother's words?"
Kou Ji said earnestly: "This time Zhu Neng was able to send troops to help Shazhou, half of the reason was because of the officials. At that time, the returnees' Jiedu envoy Cao Xian sent me to the Song Dynasty. After the Song Dynasty, the court officials asked whether they sent troops. There are divergent opinions about helping Shazhou.
In the inner court, Li Gongyi fought hard, thinking that my Great Song should rush to help Shazhou, and show his power to all the people.
Lu Gong neither agreed nor opposed.
Gong Xue thought that I, Da Song, had just gone through many rebellions, and I should recuperate.
The inner court, as well as the civil and military affairs of the Manchu dynasty, have been arguing over this, whether you are the official to come forward and agree with Li Gong's proposition.
In this regard, it is not difficult to see the official determination. "
When Zhao Zhen heard this, he nodded in satisfaction. As soon as he was about to speak, he heard Kou Ji say again: "If Zhu Neng sends troops to help Shazhou smoothly, then there is nothing to say.
But if Zhu Neng suffered a crushing defeat in Shazhou, how would the officials prepare to deal with it? "
Zhao Zhen opened his mouth, and stopped talking.
He was going to say that if Zhu Neng fails miserably, Zhu Neng will be recalled and replaced by another person to lead the army.
Or withdraw troops directly.
But when he saw Kou Ji staring straight at him, he knew that the answer Kou Ji wanted was far less simple than he thought.
Seeing that Zhao Zhen was deep in thought, Kou Ji asked: "The official only needs to answer with his own heart, and he doesn't need to think too much."
Zhao Zhen hesitated and said, "I will send someone to replace Zhu Neng."
