The ancients paid great attention to the matter of asking the gods to ask for divination, but in all major events, they almost always asked the gods for their opinions, so the Qin Tianjian came into being.
Kou Ji didn't believe in gods and ghosts. Chen Lin believed in before, but now he is skeptical.
The reason for the change is due to Zhao Zhen.
Because under the influence of Kou Ji, Zhao Zhen didn't believe in the gods and ghosts.
As Zhao Zhen's loyal servant, Chen Lin naturally wanted to follow Zhao Zhen.
For Chen Lin, the royal heir inheritance is above all else, so even if he has already sensed that Kou Ji is ridiculing, he still thinks about it.
Kou Ji saw Chen Lin lowered his head and thought about it, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
He just said casually, Chen Lin actually started thinking.
Chen Lin thought about it for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "Our family will send someone to check back. If the people of the Qin Tianjian really do something that offends God, and the offspring of the official family will be difficult to prosper, our family will definitely not let it go. they."
"Who won't let it go?"
Chen Lin's voice became heavier, so she awakened Zhao Zhen who was in a daze.
After Zhao Zhen woke up, he only heard the end of Chen Lin's words, so he asked casually.
Chen Lin bowed and truthfully repeated what Kou Ji had just said.
Zhao Zhen was taken aback after hearing this, and said, "If the queen can't give birth to a dragon this time, then I should send someone to look up the Qin Tianjian."
"It's time to check..."
Kou Ji fits one sentence.
He didn't mean to excuse Qin Tianjian at all.
In Kou Ji's eyes, the existence of the Qin Tianjian was harmful to Da Song.
For the Qin Tianjian, just do astronomy research.
It is a very stupid act to use some astronomical phenomena to influence national affairs.
It is also a very stupid act to hand over the decision-making power of national affairs to astronomical phenomena.
After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, he fell into a state of trance again.
Kou Ji gave a dry cough and awakened Zhao Zhen again.
Zhao Zhen looked at Kou Ji suspiciously, "Fourth brother, something?"
Kou Ji said frankly: "The officials don't have to worry, the minister believes that the officials will be full of children and grandchildren."
Zhao Zhen sighed, "There is no son yet..."
Kou Ji gave a wry smile.
Zhao Zhen was really taken aback by his son's affairs.
Just when Kou Ji was about to admonish Zhao Zhen a few more words, a Gong E hurried into the Yanfu Palace.
"Officials, Empress Empress is about to give birth!"
Gong E entered the palace and hurriedly said after the salute.
Zhao Zhen stood up suddenly and said anxiously, "Is going to give birth again?"
Why use one again
Because it is not the first time that Empress Cao has signs of production.
Counting this time, it has been four times.
"It's true this time."
Gong E hurriedly added.
Zhao Zhen rushed out at once, the chessboard was knocked over by him, and he didn't care.
Chen Lin chased Zhao Zhen and ran out.
Kou Ji got up and followed out.
All the way to the place where Empress Cao gave birth, I saw a large group of eunuch Gong'e surrounding the temple.
After Zhao Zhen arrived, they hurriedly bowed to salute.
Zhao Zhen ignored them and ran all the way to the front of the hall. Just after they settled down, Empress Cao's screams followed.
"Really born!"
Zhao Zhen trembled all over, and hurriedly shouted: "Quickly, find the mother and the doctor who delivered the baby."
"Back to the official's house, the mother who delivered the baby has already gone in, and the imperial doctor is waiting in the side hall nearby."
The female officer in the Queen Cao's palace whispered to report.
Zhao Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and laughed at himself: "I'm a little nervous..."
Kou Ji stood behind Zhao Zhen and shook his head with a wry smile when he heard what Zhao Zhen said.
Zhao Zhen was indeed a little nervous.
Empress Cao was waiting to give birth three times, and the nerves of everyone in the palace were strained.
The midwives and imperial doctors almost all lived next to Queen Cao’s palace, guarding Queen Cao for twelve hours.
Now that Empress Cao is really going to give birth, how can they dare to neglect.
Unless their heads don't want it anymore.
After Zhao Zhen laughed at himself, he heard Queen Cao screaming in the palace, and he paced nervously on the spot.
Not long after Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji arrived.
Queen Mother Li and Du Taifei hurried to the front of Queen Cao's bedroom.
Zhao Zhen met the Queen Mother Li and Princess Du, and hurriedly greeted them.
After the hasty salute, Zhao Zhen said anxiously to the Queen Mother Li: "Manny, you go in for me and see..."
Concubine Li knew that Zhao Zhen's heart was full of worries, and she happily agreed.
Then took the two female officials into the palace.
The screams continued for two sticks of incense.
After the two sticks of incense.
A loud cry sounded in the palace.
Outside the palace, everyone was shocked and looked eagerly at the entrance of the palace.
"Squeak..."
In the eager eyes of everyone, the bedroom door was slowly opened, and Princess Li walked out of it, the joy on her face could not be concealed.
When Zhao Zhen and Kou Ji saw this, their hearts beat quickly.
Queen Mother Li smiled and said, "Officials, this is a son."
The stiff expression on Zhao Zhen's face melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then he laughed happily.
"Hahahaha... I have a son! I have a son!"
Zhao Zhen excitedly grabbed Kou Ji's shoulder and shouted: "Fourth brother! I have a son!"
Kou Ji also had a smile on his face, and he was also happy for Zhao Zhen, "Congratulations to the official, congratulations to the official!"
"Congratulations to the official family, congratulations to the official family..."
As Kou Ji spoke, the other eunuchs and Gong E also congratulated them with joy.
Zhao Zhen let go of Kou Ji's shoulders and rushed into Queen Cao's bedroom with a big laugh.
Kou Ji did not rush in, but moved to the back of Mrs. Li, and said with a smile: "The eunuch and Gong E in the court of the court, ask the empress dowager for a reward!"
Zhao Zhen was anxious to see his son, but didn't even think about other things.
Kou Ji naturally wanted to help him take care of the things he didn't care about.
After hearing Kou Ji's words, Queen Mother Li was taken aback for a while, and smiled: "The officials are now afraid that they won't be able to take care of this matter. The rewards in the palace will be decided by the Ai's family. Everything outside the palace will be handed over to Kou Aiqing. ."
Kou Ji bowed and agreed.
Queen Mother Li smiled and said to all Gong'e and eunuchs: "The official family is pleased with the dragon son, and everyone should celebrate. It stands to reason that the official family is in charge of rewarding you. But now that the official family can't take care of this matter, the more I will do it on behalf of the mourning family.
Passing the mourning family's decree to the inner palace, the monthly monthly rate in the palace is doubled this month, plus 10,000 yuan, a palace flower, three feet of cloth, a pot of royal wine, and three catties of mutton.
The eunuch and Gong E in the Empress Cao's palace gave an additional 100,000 yuan. "
Upon hearing this, the eunuchs and Gong E all thanked the Queen Mother Li joyfully.
After they thanked them, the Queen Mother smiled and said: "The Ai family will then take out some personal money and add another 10,000 yuan to each of you, which is considered a reward from the Ai family.
The eunuch and Gong'e were even more delighted when they heard this, and once again thanked the Queen Mother Li.
After the Queen Mother Li rewarded Gong E and the eunuch, Kou Ji told Chen Lin’s deputy to the Ministry of Internal Affairs: “Send someone to ring the bell and call a hundred officials into the palace. Then send someone to the Cao’s mansion, please Cao Cao. Chinese husband and wife enter the palace."
The Ministry of Internal Servant knew that he agreed, and immediately ordered the eunuchs around him to follow Kou Ji's instructions.
Empress Cao is Zhao Zhen's main family, and the son she gave birth is the eldest son.
In this age of the auntie, the identity of the eldest son of the aunt contains a lot of things.
One of them is the priority of inheritance.
The eldest son has the priority to inherit the title, family business, etc.
The identity of the eldest son of the royal family contains more.
The eldest son of the royal family was born.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs knew that after sending people to ring the bell, the Civil and Martial Arts of the Manchu Dynasty knew that a prince was born.
There are bells ringing rules, and different bell rings have different meanings.
When the prince is born, there is a corresponding number of bells.
The three of Lu Yijian were the first to enter the palace, because their mansion was closest to the palace, and they were also the people who were most concerned about the issue of Zhao Zhen's heirs.
So after hearing the bell ringing, he couldn't wait to urge the horseman in the house to drive to the palace quickly.
After they entered the palace, they were received by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Kou Ji was summoned by Zhao Zhen into Queen Cao's bedroom.
Inside the palace.
Empress Cao was lying on the bed, her face was a little pale, but her eyes were very bright.
She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child and has a tough body.
She was really tossed during childbirth, but after childbirth, she was not as weak as Zhang and Zhang after childbirth.
Zhao Zhen sat next to Empress Cao, holding a baby cautiously in his hand.
Seeing Kou Ji entered the palace, he flaunted the baby swaddle.
Kou Ji was very helpless at Zhao Zhen's naive behavior, but he still smiled against his will: "The minister has seen it, congratulations to the official..."
"son!"
Zhao Zhen held the baby and handed it in front of Kou Ji. After Kou Ji took a closer look, he shouted braggingly.
Kou Ji stood aside, smiling without speaking.
Zhao Zhen reluctantly placed the baby beside Empress Cao, turned around and looked at Kou Ji, and yelled cordially, "In-laws..."
The smile on Kou Ji's face froze, and without a word, he turned around and ran away.
"In-law?!"
Zhao Zhen stood up and called with a stunned look.
Seeing Kou Ji walking faster and faster, he hurriedly shouted again.
"Four brother, don't go."
Kou Jijian walked like flying, and decisively ran out of Queen Cao's bedroom.
Zhao Zhen stared blankly at the disappearance of Kou Ji's figure in Queen Cao's dormitory, then turned her head blankly and asked Queen Cao, "What's wrong with me?"
Empress Cao barely squeezed a smile on her face and shook her head slightly.
Zhao Zhen suspiciously said, "What is the fourth brother running?"
Empress Cao thought about it for a moment, and said with a smile: "Probably she is reluctant to give her daughter to our emperor."
Zhao Zhen was taken aback, "I called him a family friend, do I covet his daughter?"
Empress Cao was also stunned, "Doesn't the officials mean that?"
Zhao Zhen said in dissatisfaction: "I just think that he has children, I also have children, and my daughter married his son again, so I called him to be kinder.
But what does it mean that he turned around and ran? "
Empress Cao said quietly: "He thought that the officials wanted his daughters to enter the palace and let our emperor be the imperial concubine, so he ran away..."
Zhao Zhen's face went black in an instant.
"Does he think that my emperor is not worthy of his daughter?!"
Empress Cao smiled lightly: "The official's words are not good enough. In the world, there is no woman who is not worthy of our emperor. It should be a woman of the world, who is not worthy of our emperor."
Zhao Zhen's expression eased a little, and he snorted, "It should be so!"
Empress Cao continued: "The concubine heard that Priscilla Kou loved his daughter very much. Perhaps because of this, he was reluctant to send her daughter into the palace."
Zhao Zhen was not happy again, "Is my palace a tiger and wolf den? Is it that scary?"
Empress Cao smiled without speaking.
Zhao Zhen said with a black face: "It might have been a bit unbearable before, but after we have rectified it with you, our palace is the best place in the world."
Empress Cao pondered for a moment, and said, "Perhaps Kou Shimi doesn't think so..."
Zhao Zhen snorted and said, "He doesn't want his daughter to be my daughter-in-law, so I want his daughter to be my daughter-in-law."
A slight smile appeared at the corner of Queen Cao's mouth, without saying more.
Sitting next to Empress Cao, Zhao Zhen figured out how to ask Kou Ji's daughter into the palace to be her own daughter-in-law.
Just when Zhao Zhen secretly calculated, the people from Zongzheng Temple arrived.
The people at Zongzheng Temple made a detailed record of the birth of the prince, and then withdrew from the palace of Queen Cao.
Afterwards, the three of Lu Yijian arrived.
The three of them entered the dormitory, and after saluting Zhao Zhen and Empress Cao, they kept looking at the baby lying beside the bed.
Seeing this, Zhao Zhen opened the baby swaddle, letting them see enough.
After seeing what they wanted to see, the three of Lu Yijian laughed and left Empress Cao's bedroom.
Before leaving, Wang Zeng smiled and said to Zhao Zhen: "Since then, I have no worries about Song Dynasty..."
Zhao Zhen agreed.
Soon after the three of Lu Yijian, Cao Qi and his wife entered Queen Cao's dormitory and watched their grandson.
After Cao Qi and his wife left, no one entered Queen Cao's palace again.
Those civil and military ministers in the court do not have that qualification.
They can only learn the details of the prince through the mouths of the three of Lu Yijian.
When the three of Lu Yijian left the Queen Cao's bedroom, they took the Manchu civil and military to the Chui Gong Palace.
In addition to Kou Ji, the Manchu dynasty, civil and military, gathered in the Chuigong Hall.
It was not until nightfall that Zhao Zhen appeared in the Chuigong Hall.
Zhao Zhen glanced left and right after the hundred officials gave the salute, and asked, "Where is Kou Ji?"
Manchu civil and military, you look at me, I look at you, there is no words.
In the end, the Ministry of Internal Affairs knew in a low voice.
"Kou Shu Mi said that he is in a state of illness and has to go back to the house for three to five days to raise..."
Zhao Zhen curled his lips.
Kou Ji obviously avoided him.
However, the more Kou Ji is like this, the more Zhao Zhen wants to ask Kou Ji's daughter into the palace to be his daughter-in-law.
In Zhao Zhen's view, he treated Kou Ji's son Kou Tianci as his own son, and married his daughter to Kou Tianci.
Kou Ji should treat his son as his own son, and marry his daughter to his son.
Zhao Zhen didn't want to publicize the matter to the officials, so he didn't mention Kou Ji again.
He instructed Lu Yijian to announce the birth of the prince to the world.
At the same time, the Cao family and Cao Tong were sealed.
When I am amnesting the world, I asked about the Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry and learned that the prisoner this year had been sent to the border, and decisively issued an order to amnesty the world.
In the end, a symbol of Jin Wu couldn't help but celebrate the whole country.
The reason why I said it symbolically is because now in Bianjing, no one cares about the curfew.
…
Kou Mansion.
After Kou Ji returned to the mansion, he went straight to the backyard.
When I arrived in the backyard, I saw Xiang Yan walking with her daughter.
When Xiang Yan saw Kou Ji, she was taken aback for a moment, "The prince is born, shouldn't you stay in the palace and listen to your orders? Why did you return to the palace?"
Kou Ji did not answer Xiang Yan's question, but said to Xiang Yan very seriously: "I am going to send my girl to martial arts."
Xiang Yan stared at Kou Ji in amazement, "Let the girl go to martial arts?"
Kou Ji nodded solemnly.
Xiang Yan frowned and said, "Why?"
Kou Ji said solemnly: "Whoever wants to marry my daughter in the future must beat my daughter first."
Xiang Yan was taken aback, thought about it, frowned, and looked at Kou Ji with a surprised expression: "The official wants our girl to be the prince?"
"Bah..."
Kou Ji took a sip and said viciously: "The beauty he wants!"
Seeing this, Xiang Yan couldn't laugh or cry, "Really..."
Kou Ji snorted coldly: "It is absolutely impossible for my daughter to be a prince and concubine."
Xiang Yan hesitated, "Why do you refuse something that others can't ask for?"
After a pause, Xiang Yan said again: "The prince born to Empress Cao is the eldest prince. You should be clear about what this means."
Kou Ji disdainfully said: "He is not a prince! What if he is a prince? My daughter will not enter the royal gate."
Kou Ji naturally knew what it meant by the birth of Queen Cao's eldest son.
The probability that the eldest prince born to Empress Cao will be crowned prince is as high as 90%.
The innate superiority of the eldest son determines that he is in a favorable position when he seizes the son.
Once Zhao Zhen had the intention to establish a prince, the officials would definitely ask Zhao Zhen to establish the eldest prince as the prince in accordance with the rules between the princes.
In addition, his mother is from the Cao family, and with the support of the Cao family, his establishment as a prince is almost an ironclad matter.
Unless he was born with a deficiency, or he died the day after tomorrow.
Kou Ji, the eldest son born to Empress Cao, has seen it, and there are no congenital shortcomings and no symptoms.
Therefore, unless he is born prematurely, he is the prince.
But the prince does not mean that he is the official family of the Song Dynasty.
At the time when the Great Song Dynasty established the country, there were four people who were ordained as princes.
But there are only two people sitting on the throne as princes.
Kou Ji didn't care whether the remaining princes of Queen Cao would become princes.
Even if he becomes a prince, his daughter will not marry.
"The grandfather is not willing to let her daughter enter the palace, so she won't enter."
Seeing Kou Ji's firm attitude, Xiang Yan said with a smile.
Kou Ji was taken aback, and said suspiciously: "Did you just say that others can't ask for it..."
Before Kou Ji finished speaking, Xiang Yan smiled and said: "Yes, the concubine is talking about someone else, not our family."
Kou Ji let out a laugh.
Xiang Yan continued to smile and said, "It's just about letting the girl go to martial arts, and the concubine still hopes the grandfather can think twice."
Kou Ji sighed and said: "I was also scared by the officials, so I just said casually. She is still a little bit old and can't speak much, how to practice martial arts."
"Shanggong knows it..."
Kou Ji spoke with Xiang Yan for a while. After relieving her mood, he stopped thinking about it.
A few days later.
Kou Ji did not enter the palace, so he stayed at the house to accompany his family.
…
The city of Bianjing would not stand still because Kou Ji stayed at home, and the Song Dynasty was no exception.
Kou Ji stayed in the house for a few days.
The news of the birth of the eldest prince has spread all over the world.
The Song Dynasty was full of joy.
The officials felt happy because the court had an heir.
The people are happy because Zhao Zhen has a son.
In short, everyone in the upper and lower parts of the Song Dynasty was happy because of the birth of the eldest son.
All places have offered auspicious auspiciousness one after another.
The vassals also presented generous gifts one after another.
Just when Da Song was happy.
Dali fell into endless sadness.
After the Song Dynasty got the Jianchang Mansion, everyone in Dali thought that the war between Song Dynasty and Dali was over.
But less than two months after Da Song obtained Jianchang Mansion, Da Song's soldiers and horses reappeared in Dali.
In just three days, half of Dongchuan Mansion was broken.
Dali was shocked.
There is no doubt that this time it was Dali who offended the Song Dynasty again.
Palace Lord Dongchuan Mansion, after the Song Dynasty took over Jianchang Mansion, bewitched the people of the small tribes in Jianchang Mansion, quietly fled Jianchang Mansion and returned to Dali.
After the incident was discovered by Chong Shiheng, Chong Shiheng dispatched Zhu Neng and led 10,000 soldiers to attack Dongchuan Mansion.
After half of Dongchuan Mansion was taken down.
Both Da Song and Dali entered into a new round of peace talks again.
Da Song almost used the same method as before to get Dongchuan Mansion into his pocket.
The battle between Da Song and Dali came to an end once again.
But after the end of the war.
Duan Suzhen, the king of Dali County, dispatched Gao Zhisheng, led a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and settled in Huichuan Mansion, focusing on Chong Shiheng in Jianchang Mansion.
After Zhong Shiheng informed the court of this matter.
Kou Ji and Zhao Zhen discussed, dispatched Di Qing, led the fifty thousand forbidden army, quietly went south.
Just when the Song Dynasty court was planning a thorough offensive against Dali.
The war in Jiaozhi also changed.
With the Jiaozhi Army, the Annan Army, and the Divine Mercy Army established by the Great Cannibal, the three-party conflicts continue to intensify.
Jiaozhi was completely messed up into a pot of porridge.
After the Great Cannibal used the Great Song armaments to establish the Divine Mercy Army, he immediately parted ways with the Annan Army.
They broke away from the battlefield of the Annan Army and the Jiaozhi Army and invaded all the way south.
Arima stayed with guests to help, they were almost hopeless and unprofitable, and they captured nearly seven cities in Jiaozhi.
Seeing this, the King of Cozhi County had to dispatch heavy troops to deal with the big cannibals.
Heavy soldiers were dispatched to deal with the big cannibals, and the number of Jiaozhi soldiers who resisted the Annan Army was much less.
The Annan Army took this opportunity to advance all the way westward and captured the five cities of Jiaozhi.
The reason why the Annan Army's offensive was so swift and violent was also due to the Jiaozhi and the cannibalism.
The appearance of big cannibals stimulated those witches in the mountains and forests.
In order to deal with the big cannibals, Wu kept sending out the barbarians from the mountains and forests to join the Annan Army.
The number of soldiers and horses in the Annan army has risen sharply.
The Annan Army was used to the habit of asking the Song court to ask for armaments, so after the number of soldiers and horses increased, they decisively sent people to the court to ask for armaments.
With Kou Ji's black heart, it is naturally impossible to give them arms for nothing.
They must pay a certain amount of money.
Then, the Annan Army handed over the money they had seized in Jiaozhi territory to Kou Ji.
After Kou Ji got the money, a very generous general was sent to them.
