Jia Sidao finished answering emperor LiZong's questions and left.

But when he turned around, the emperor stopped Jia Sidao again and said, "Ai Qing, since you have entered the palace, go to see your sister. She has been blaming you recently."

Jia Sidao agreed, and after thanking emperor LiZong, he wanted to go where his sister lived in the palace.

It turned out that the old general Jia she had a woman besides his son Jia Sidao.

This woman was born to the wife of general Jia she. She was born beautiful and enchanting. She was the most outstanding at the first emperor LiZong's imperial concubine selection meeting.

At that time, song LiZong took a fancy to Jia at a glance, only considering that Jia's father, Jia she, was the commander in chief of the local army. If he made his woman queen again, Jia Hui would be the father of the state again.

In this way, the power of old general Jia she is too heavy. If he wants to have a bad heart, he may not be able to control it.

In view of these, Emperor LiZong and Empress Dowager Yang of the Song Dynasty made Jia a lady of Wen'an County.

Out of the favor of the Jia family, less than half a year after entering the harem, Emperor LiZong of the Song Dynasty promoted the Jia family to be a talented person, and then a year later, he was promoted to be the imperial concubine of the Imperial Palace, whose status was only that of the empress.

Although Jia is not the same mother as Jia Sidao, he is also very caring for Jia Sidao's mother and son.

When the old general Jia she knew that his wife had given money to Jia Sidao's mother, he was very angry. He immediately scolded the doctor, saying that he would dare to give money and things to Jia Sidao's mother and son in the future. Then he broke his wife's leg.

The eldest lady had no choice but to let her daughter Jia take advantage of the opportunity to sneak out and play, often bringing some delicious food or clothes to Jia Sidao's mother and son.

Naturally, the relationship between Jia and his mother and son is quite good.

After Jia entered the imperial palace as a concubine, he naturally had to go in and out at will, and seldom saw his brother, but he did not forget Jia Sidao.

One day, he saw emperor LiZong playing crickets with several princes. As a result, the emperor's crickets were defeated.

Emperor LiZong, of course, felt that he had no face, so he walked away with his sleeves.

Depressed, Emperor LiZong came to the palace of the imperial concubine and wanted to come here to relax.

Seeing emperor LiZong's bad complexion, the imperial concubine asked what had happened.

When Princess Jia knew it was such a thing, she giggled and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you tell me earlier that it's easy to win the cricket of the prince."

After hearing this, Emperor LiZong was so excited that he quickly took Princess Jia's hand and asked, "Princess Ai, what can you do? Tell me quickly. As long as you can defeat those princes, I will reward you heavily."

"However, it's a matter between your majesty and your lords. If your concubines take part in it, can it be regarded as the politics of the harem?" Jia Guifei asked deliberately.

Emperor LiZong comforted her and said, "Oh, princess, you really think too much. It's a Cricket fight. What's the relationship between it and politics?"

"That's what I said." Jia Guifei deliberately adjusted the emperor's appetite.

Emperor LiZong replied, "love princess, please tell me quickly. I'm dying of anxiety."

"There is a brother in my mother's family, who is a cricket master. If you summon him, you can make sure that none of the princes are his opponents. Jia Guifei said

Emperor LiZong said with a smile: "Princess Ai, you're joking again. I don't know your family background. Your mother gave birth to such a daughter as you. How can you be a brother?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know that my father has two wives. My mother is the first wife, and my brother is the second wife. He was driven out of the house because he didn't know anything when he was a child. But he learned to find crickets and raise crickets, which is very powerful." Princess Jia replied.

Emperor LiZong said: "I can't imagine that you Jia family still have such an expert, Princess Ai. Why didn't you say that earlier?"

After that, let people go to find Jia Sidao.

At this time, Jia Sidao was a rogue in Lin'an City, fighting crickets and gambling with a group of unruly people all day.

On this day, Jia Sidao happened to find a good cricket and a group of people playing crickets in the cricket fighting room.

After winning several games in succession, Jia Sidao was excited and cheered, calling others to bet loudly.

At this point, I felt someone patted me on the shoulder.

Jia Sidao turned his head and asked, "who, don't bother your Jia Yee here. Don't you see Jia Yee playing happily?"

But the man patted him on the shoulder again.

The eunuch, however, turned to look at a few eunuchs, who wanted to follow him.

The head of the Imperial Guard grabbed Jia Sidao's outstretched hand, pointed to the eunuch, and said, "keep your mouth clean. This is Mr. Dong in the palace. You don't want your life."I heard that it was the people in the palace. The people in the cricket fighting room were too scared to speak, and they were silent.

At that time, he was not the eunuch in charge of the palace, but the close eunuch beside emperor LiZong.

He looked at Jia Sidao and asked with a smile, "are you Jia Sidao?"

"Yes, it's you, Mr. Jia. What's the matter? Mr. Jia didn't do anything. He's not afraid of your officials." Jia Sidao was very brave at that time, so he replied.

Dong songchen said, "Oh, you're very powerful!"

"What can I do for you?" Jia Sidao asked.

When the Imperial Army saw that Jia Sidao was so reasonable to Dong songchen, they would reach out and beat him.

Dong songchen stopped him. On the contrary, he respectfully saluted Jia Sidao and said, "I've seen my uncle."

"What country uncle, are you mistaken?" Jia Sidao listened to Dong songchen and asked in doubt.

Dong songchen laughed and said, "how can you make a mistake? Isn't your sister Jia Guifei today?"

Jia Sidao certainly knows about this, but now, Jia is the imperial concubine of today's emperor, and he is a street thug. Naturally, his interest lies in the human premise.

After hearing Dong songchen's question, Jia Sidao was stunned and replied, "yes, it is, but we are half brothers. Since we entered the palace, we have met very well."

"Boy, you are lucky. Your concubine has said a lot of good things for you in front of you. Now your majesty will summon you in the palace!" Dong answered.

Hearing this, Jia Sidao did not believe it, so he asked, "is this true?"

"It's true, of course. "Dong answered.

After that, he urged: "hurry to follow the old slave into the palace, your majesty is still waiting for you! "

Jia Sidao did not dare to neglect, so he cleaned up and immediately followed Dong songchen to the palace.

Don't mention it. This princess Jia really recommended the right person this time.

After Jia Sidao arrived in the palace, when Emperor LiZong asked about the cricket, he talked a lot and answered every question. He even raised raising crickets to the height of governing the country.

Emperor LiZong and Jia Sidao really hate to meet each other. They have been talking about this cricket for several hours.

Originally, at night, foreign ministers were not allowed to enter the palace at will. However, Emperor LiZong was so excited that he couldn't help it. He immediately issued an imperial edict to call those cricket loving princes into the palace to compete with them.

All the insects brought by the Lords are big and strong. But Jia Sidao did bring a humble little bug.

After seeing this, the princes could not say anything because of emperor LiZong's face, but they all laughed to themselves and said, "Your Majesty is a master of crickets. Why did you invite such a person and still hold such a bug? I'm afraid the crickets in our hands will bite the crickets in Jia Sidao's hands. "

I thought so, but in order to give emperor LiZong a face, they praised the cricket one after another.

At this time, Emperor LiZong had no bottom in his heart. He also felt that Jia Sidao, a small, black cricket, could hardly win over the crickets of the princes.

But Jia Sidao was very arrogant. He first saluted the princes and said, "with my opinion, let's not fight each other. "

" then how do you want to play? "The princes asked.

Jia Sidao said with a smile, "I'll use this cricket. You can see that all your crickets are put into the bowl. Today we'll play with a dozen of them! "

" what, you little cricket, are you crazy to want all our crickets. "What do you think.

After hearing this, even emperor LiZong, who had heard Jia Sidao's cricket Scripture, felt a little incredible and said, "even if Jia Sidao is a little capable, he can say it too much."

Jia Sidao saw that people didn't believe it, so he took out his cricket and put it in the insect pot. Then he made a gesture of invitation.

Jia Sidao is now fighting insects with them on behalf of emperor LiZong, so the lords had to take out their crickets and put them into the insect basin one by one.

This little cricket stayed in the middle, and the crickets of wangyemen surrounded it in the middle, slowly approaching the middle.

The little cricket seems to be a little afraid and doesn't move.

Seeing this, all the princes couldn't help laughing and said, "Jia Sidao, you're going to make a fool of yourself soon."

I saw these crickets close, mouth bite, very fierce.

And the little cricket just dodged, and seemed to have no fighting power. It seems that Jia Sidao's little cricket will soon be killed by the big crickets of the Lords.Emperor LiZong saw this situation and said, "Princess Jia, you boast so much about your brother, but he's really good at fighting crickets."

When fighting crickets, they usually have a special grass, which is used to stir crickets to fight each other in the basin.

At this time, saw Jia Sidao a smile, took out a grass from his sleeve, in the basin of his cricket body gently.

I saw that the little cricket was as excited as taking some medicine. He flew up and landed on the back of the biggest cricket. He opened his mouth and killed the big cricket. Then, like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, he killed the rest of the crickets one after another.

This sudden change, but the emperor LiZong and all the princes were stunned. They didn't know how it happened.

Some of the crickets were bought with a lot of money, and they were very distressed when they were killed.

Jia Sidao complacently asked: "how, you lords, your crickets are not good?"

All the princes were dejected and no one would answer.

"Jia Aiqing, you are so amazing. Tell me quickly, how did you do it?" Emperor LiZong of the Song Dynasty asked happily.

Jia Sidao said: "in fact, it's very simple. Although this insect is small, it's really a bad insect. But this insect has one characteristic. It's not very aggressive on weekdays. Wei Chen uses his own special grass to gently provoke the crickets. When the crickets smell a smell, they are very excited. Naturally, they can show their strength and clean up all the crickets of the kings."

"It seems that the key lies in the grass." Emperor LiZong suddenly realized that "the method of fumigating this herb is the only secret recipe of my ministers."

After such a big war, Jia Sidao's ability to play crickets has become famous in the Song Dynasty.

Naturally, Emperor LiZong appreciated Jia Sidao very much, and even couldn't do without him. He thought it was so happy to play cricket with Jia Sidao. Slowly, Jia Sidao became emperor LiZong's confidant minister, until he was one of the prime ministers of the Song Dynasty.

In this way, a king who loves fighting crickets and a master who loves playing crickets come together perfectly ..。

In terms of the current situation in the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty, it can be said that there are three parts of the world, each with its own.

Although Xie Daoqing, the empress of the Imperial Palace, was not good-looking, she was kind-hearted and respected by the whole. Although emperor LiZong didn't like her very much because of her appearance, he respected her character. In addition, he was the queen chosen by Empress Dowager Yang. In the harem, Emperor LiZong still gave the queen face. He never thought to abolish the present Queen and make her queen.

In addition, there are Jia Guifei and Yan Guifei. They have their own advantages.

The imperial concubine Jia was very close to the empress in the harem, while the imperial concubine Yan was very resourceful. She had a close relationship with the chief manager of the harem, Dong songchen, and a large number of courtiers supported her. Naturally, her influence should not be underestimated.
