"His title in the old Song Dynasty was Prince Yi."

Zhao Yuan took a torch and looked closer.

Indeed, she does bear a striking resemblance to the Zhao Fujin and Zhao Fujin sisters. He immediately nodded and said...

"He is quite handsome,"

"A perfectly fine man,"

Why do you still smell of perfume?

"If my brother-in-law is not pleased,"

"I will no longer wear rouge," Zhao Yu said quickly.

Zhao Yuan was too lazy to care about such things.

"Suit yourself, go inside and talk."

Zhao Yu, seizing the opportunity, followed Zhao Yuan closely.

"Brother-in-law, I also have two younger brothers,"

"They are Zhao Mo, the former Prince Qi of the Song Dynasty, and Zhao Zhen, the former Prince Xin of the Song Dynasty."

Zhao Yuan casually said, "Come on over, everyone."

Zhao Mo is seventeen years old this year.

She hurriedly stepped forward and called out to her brother-in-law.

Zhao Zhen was only fourteen years old.

Feeling dazed and somewhat afraid.

I was urged several times before I came over.

So this is how you build relationships?

Zhao Kai was given a new perspective.

Crouching low and bending over, following beside him.

"Grand Marshal, please allow me to inform you that I have several younger sisters,"

"I have long admired the Marshal's illustrious reputation,"

"I long for the day and night to see the Emperor's face in person."

"I hope the Marshal will be kind and benevolent."

"Summon me at a later time,"

"To relieve their longing."

Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "So it's the Prince of Yun. It's been a long time."

Among the many princes

Zhao Yuan was "most familiar" with Zhao Kai.

He had met Emperor Huizong of Song ten times before.

Zhao Kai accompanied him at least six times.

On the contrary, it was Zhao Huan,

He hid in the Eastern Palace and refused to see any outside officials.

Zhao Kai had shrunk three inches in height, and he cupped his hands in a gesture of apology and a forced smile.

"The Marshal still remembers me!"

"I am truly flattered."

"None of my three sisters are married,"

"Yingluo and Duofu are twins."

Chapter 1624 Brother-in-law

“My father previously betrothed Yingluo to Xiang Ziyi,”

“Yingluo told me privately,”

"She admired Zhao, a great hero of the world,"

"I will marry no one but you in this life, which is why I have refused marriage and remained chaste to this day."

"Duofu also said that she would marry whoever her sister marries."

Zhao Huan immediately retorted, "Grand Marshal, don't listen to his nonsense!"

"This scoundrel is just like a tyrant,"

Not a single word he said is credible.

Zhao Kai went even further, saying,

"This fellow resents the marshal for taking his throne."

"Quite inhuman language,"

"He just cursed Zhao the traitor several times,"

"Everyone heard it."

"That's right, he did indeed call the Grand Marshal a traitor Zhao."

Zhao Zhi, the Prince of Xin, who shared the same mother as Zhao Kai, immediately echoed his sentiments.

That is indeed true.

The princes all nodded in agreement.

They complained that Zhao Huan hadn't surrendered sooner.

At this moment, everyone chooses to kick someone when they're down.

Zhao Huan was terrified and hurriedly knelt down, saying...

"I misspoke, please forgive me, Grand Marshal!"

Zhao Kai, however, was unwilling to let it go: "What do you mean by 'a momentary slip of the tongue'?"

"Do you still harbor resentment in your heart?"

"Even now he's secretly complaining,"

"They just don't dare to say it?"

"Zhao San!"

Zhao Huan couldn't hold back any longer and roared.

"Even if I have a deep-seated hatred for you,"

"After all, we're all brothers. Is it really necessary to be so ruthless?"

Zhao Kai sneered: "With the Grand Marshal in front of you,"

"How dare you roar like that!"

"Do you still consider yourself the emperor?"

"I'll fight you!"

Zhao Huan suddenly stood up.

He lunged at Zhao Kai with all his might.

Zhao Kai was caught off guard and was immediately knocked to the ground.

The two brothers started fighting right in front of Zhao Yuan.

Bai Sheng was dumbfounded and asked in a low voice,

"Should we pull them apart?"

"Let them fight."

Zhao Yuan strolled around them, ignoring them completely.

Zhao Kai is not only multi-talented,

He also practiced martial arts.

Although it's all show and no substance,

Beating Zhao Huan up was enough.

The outcome was decided in just a few minutes.

The latter lay on the ground groaning, clutching his stomach.

"I'm sorry to have made such a fool of myself, Grand Marshal."

Zhao Kai stepped forward and bowed, saying...

Zhao Yuan, however, remained expressionless.

"In terms of human relations, he is your elder brother."

"In terms of etiquette, he is your lord."

"Did you violate ethical norms by beating him?"

"this......."

Zhao Kai was speechless.

He felt that beating the Song Dynasty emperor was wrong.

Able to please Zhao Yuan,

But unexpectedly, this flattery backfired.

Zhao Yuan glanced at everyone and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you."

"We will not deliberately humiliate them,"

"But they certainly won't have a good life from now on."

“I will designate a large area of ​​abandoned land,”

"You'll be sent to cultivate the land next spring,"

"Let us also experience the hardships and difficulties of ordinary people in this world."

"All your property shall be confiscated and put to public use."

"We will only give you seeds, farm tools, oxen, and clothes,"

“You will have to build even the thatched huts yourselves.”

I heard there's no danger to his life.

Each of them felt as if they had escaped a terrible fate.

As for personally farming or doing other things, that's not important anymore.

The imperial son-in-law, Cao Sheng, said, "But we don't know how to build walls and houses."

Zhao Yuan said, "I will resettle some of the refugees."

"To be your neighbor."

“Those refugees, we can teach you how to build houses, how to farm, and how to weave.”

"Except for the first year when rations were issued,"

"We must rely on ourselves for the rest of the time,"

"Those who refuse to work deserve to starve to death."
