I will never be Renzong

Chapter 9 Breakfast
The next day, Zhao Zhen slowly woke up from his sleep to the call of his maid.

Zhao Zhen allowed the four maids to wash and dress him, while he carefully looked at the four personal maids.

Empress Dowager Liu E wanted to prevent court ladies from seducing Zhao Zhen with sex, so their looks were not particularly outstanding, but their temperaments had their own merits.

Zhao Zhen couldn't help thinking: The person who gave me the medicine last night must be able to freely enter and leave his bedroom. There are only a handful of people who can freely enter and exit his bedroom, except for the Queen Mother Liu E, Concubine Yang, and his wet nurse Li Shi. These four Liu E personally chose her personal maids.

"The system checks the properties of the thrush."

Zhao Xin suddenly looked at the oldest maid among the four.Zhao Yunrang entered the palace before he was born, so the court ladies who had contact with him must be getting older.

Name: Li Huamei, Age: 27, Charm: 80, Wisdom: 80
Politics: 8, Military: 0, Force: 2, Domination: 3
Morality: 90, Ambition: 0, Favor: 96
Zhao Zhen looked at the attributes that flashed in his mind, and couldn't help but froze, thinking: How come?Such a high favor?And the ambition is absolutely zero, right?Don't all the maids who enter the palace want to be favored by the officials one day, fly on the branches and become a phoenix?So in Nuo Da's palace, it is almost impossible to find a court lady with 0 ambitions, right?But why, is there one right in front of me?

As the saying goes, if things go wrong, there must be a demon. It is possible that this Li Huamei has some origins, but anyway, her suspicion can be ruled out right now, just when Zhao Zhen wanted to check the other three maids.I saw Concubine Yang coming, surrounded by a group of court ladies and eunuchs.

"Little lady!"

Zhao Zhen bowed respectfully.

"Yeah! Brother Six is ​​getting more and more handsome!"

Concubine Yang stepped forward to tidy Zhao Zhen's hat.

"Little lady! Where's the big lady?"

Zhao Zhen asked Concubine Yang.In the past, Empress Dowager Liu E would come with Concubine Yang at this time, but for some reason none of them came today.

"Sister stayed in the Yanqing Palace all night last night. We have to go to court today, so we went down to have a rest. Otherwise, it would be unavoidable to be disrespectful when meeting the ministers! My sister said that the officials should have breakfast first. Don't wait for her!"

Concubine Yang looked Zhao Zhen up and down to see if there was anything improperly dressed.

"Ma'am stayed in Yanqing Palace for a whole night? I must be missing my father!"

Zhao Zhen said to himself.

"Well! My sister has the deepest relationship with the first emperor. After all, the relationship between husband and wife has lasted for more than 40 years. In the blink of an eye, the first emperor left like this. Don't say it's my sister who can't accept it, even me."

Yang's eyes moistened when he thought of something.

"Little lady! Although the emperor is gone, the sixth brother is still here! From now on, let the sixth brother be filial to the little lady!"

Zhao Zhen hurriedly comforted him.

"Sixth brother has grown up, and now he is the official family of the Song Dynasty. From now on, I can no longer directly call sixth brother, and should call the official family!"

Yang said with great emotion that the child he raised with his own hands has also begun to dominate the world.

"As for the little empress, even though Sixth Brother is an official of the Great Song Dynasty, in the little empress's place, no matter when and where, he is still the Sixth Brother!"

Zhao Zhen replied hurriedly.

"Officials! Don't follow the rules! You can't make a square! Officials should pay more attention!"

Young replied.

But thinking of the mighty Liu E, she couldn't help but feel a little worried. The official family has become independent since a serious illness last year. In the past, they had to be served by court ladies at night. Now these small things are done by themselves, and their opinions are gradually becoming more and more independent. When I get more, I often have my own opinions when dealing with things.

But this is not a good thing, Yang thought for a while and said: "Officials! You are still young now, and you should focus on reading to understand things. As for the government, you must obey the Queen Mother's will!"

"My little lady's words! Son, remember!"

Zhao Zhen hurriedly replied respectfully.

After Zhao Zhen came to the outer hall, the imperial dining room had already prepared a series of imperial meals. Zhao Zhen was a little uncomfortable when he first came, but after a year of life, he has already seen it.

Song Zhenzong was also a man who could spend money, so Zhao Zhen had dozens of dishes for breakfast.

First, there are fruit and dried fruit plates, but it is late spring now, and there are not many fresh fruits, but there are enough four plates, carambola, green dates, green apricots, and wild cherries.There are quite a lot of dried fruits, eight kinds in total, including lychee, longan, hazelnut, pine nut, ginkgo, hawthorn, lotus, and pear.

“Not sweet at all!”

Zhao Zhen picked up the green jujube and took a bite, and said to himself that although the jujube was not sweet, he still ate the jujube in his hand.

Yang Shi picked up a green apricot and ate it.

"Little lady! Isn't this green apricot sour?"

Seeing Yang eating with relish, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but be eager to try.

"Guan family! The Ai family always likes sour things, what? Do you want to try it too, Guan family?"

Yang asked back, because in her memory, apart from seafood, Zhao Zhen's favorite food was sweets.

"No! Let's serve dinner directly! My son is not in the mood to eat these things!"

Zhao Zhen glanced at the various fruits and dried fruits and said.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yang winked at the maids who were waiting on the side, and then the maids removed the fruit plates of various colors from the table.

Plates of plain snacks were brought up. Emperor Zhenzong had just passed away, so naturally he had to be vegetarian for a short time.

Mrs. Yang first took a taste of a candied fruit, then picked up another piece and handed it to Zhao Zhen. Before Zhao Zhen had a meal, an eunuch of his own servant first tested the poison with a silver needle, and Mrs. Yang tried it first. After asking the question, Zhao Zhen can officially start eating.

I have to say that the food of the emperor of the Song Dynasty was pretty good, but because there were too many styles and varieties, although Zhao Zhen ate a lot, he only tasted it.

As soon as Mrs. Yang finished serving Zhao Zhen for breakfast, the Empress Dowager Liu E came in wearing court clothes and carrying a group of court ladies and eunuchs.

"Ma'am! Have you eaten breakfast before! My son just finished eating, so I'm not as good as you"

Zhao Zhen hurriedly got up and saluted.From the corner of his eyes, he could see that the eyes of the Empress Dowager Liu E were red and swollen. She must have cried last night.

"The Ai family understands the official's wishes. The Ai family just used a bowl of bird's nest in the palace. It's getting late now. Don't keep the ministers waiting!"

Liu E said lightly.

"It's the big lady!"

Zhao Zhen hurriedly responded.

Liu E came to Zhao Zhen, took a careful look at Zhao Zhen, and then straightened his clothes for Zhao Zhen, before saying: "Officials must remember that, as a king, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and you must dress neatly. folds, otherwise you will be ridiculed by the officials!"

"The teaching of the big lady! My son will keep it in mind!"

Zhao Zhen replied respectfully.

"Well! Let's go! The courtiers must be waiting impatiently!"

Liu E sat on the imperial chariot first, and then Zhao Zhen sat on the imperial chariot behind, and the two walked towards the Daqing Hall.
