Chapter 431: Tryst with Empress Song
Afternoon.
Wang Chen and Zhao Defang went to the study again.
Seven or eight of them were whispering over there.
"Does the national teacher really want to win over a few powerful figures?"
"With our identity, how can we win it over?"
"That's right, the four princes are different from the martial arts kings, one is the concubine, and recently His Majesty has been building momentum again, naturally there is a large group of people who are willing to support, the four princes are concubines, why should they get support?"
"Alas, the national teacher is a little whimsical. ”
"To tell the truth, it is really difficult to win over the real power figures with the identity of the four princes, otherwise it would not be possible for us to be a group of people for so long, of course, now it depends on how big the face of the national teacher is, if his face is big enough, he may be able to win over one or two real power figures, but I still feel unlikely. ”
"What the national teacher thinks, we must be unhappy to understand. ”
"Maybe, after all, we are lowly and don't understand the upper echelons. ”
"I hope it can be done this time, we can only bet on the four princes. ”
"Alas, it's up to the national teacher anyway. ”
Except for Wu Ling, who looked relatively normal, everyone else seemed worried, their status was too low, and they had no way to take refuge in Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Dezhao, naturally, the only choice was Zhao Defang.
If Zhao Defang can achieve something, they will soar all of a sudden, if Zhao Defang has no achievements, they have nothing to lose, but who doesn't want to be prosperous and rich, and now Wang Chen, the "big man" in their eyes, has joined in, which seems to let them see a glimmer of hope, but they have become troubled by gains and losses.
……
In the study.
Zhao Defang asked, "Teacher, what are you going to do?"
Wang Chen put his hands behind his back and muttered for a while, and then said: "I have not been in the court for a long time, and I don't know much about the relationship between the ministers, you tell me who you know, who supports King Jin, who supports your brother, and who is neutral." "Even if you have to come to the door to lobby, you can't be like a headless fly, at least you have to have a preliminary goal.
Zhao Defang responded: "Okay, my uncle's main forces are concentrated in the army......"
He spoke in detail for about twenty minutes.
Wang Chen roughly understands some detailed information, Zhao Guangyi has a lot of supporters, especially in the army, such as Cao Bin, Pan Mei and others, the reason why this is so is because Zhao Guangyi followed Zhao Kuangyin to conquer those people when he was able to conquer those people, some people may think that Zhao Guangyi is a low-level conspirator, but they don't know that Zhao Er's military talent is very good, and the Pingrong Wanquan Array he created even learned from the Liao State.
Finally, a few lists were identified that could be tried.
Wang Chen explained that Zhao Defang hid his figure for himself, dressed up in disguise, and directly used teleportation to leave the Four Princes' Mansion.
……
The first target of the visit was Ludoson.
That's right, this one did have an unpleasant time with Wang Chen, but he really belonged to the neutral faction, the most important thing is that Lu Duoxun is now a servant of the ministry, in charge of the appointment and dismissal of officials, examinations, promotions, transfers, etc., if you can take him down, you can install a lot of your own people.
Wang Chen first used his discerning observation to make sure that there was only one person in Lu Duoxun's office, and then he used teleportation to move in.
Suddenly a person appeared, Lu Duosun was startled, and opened his mouth to shout: "There is a ......"
"It's me. Wang Chen ripped off his mouthcarf.
"Uh, National Teacher!?" Lu Duoxun was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is there anything important about the sudden visit?"
Wang Chen smiled and said, "Lu Shilang, I have a piece of glory and wealth for you, are you interested?"
"Oh?"
"You know that the Fourth Prince is young and there is no famous teacher around him to guide him, is Lu Shilang interested in being the teacher of the Fourth Prince? If so, I can help ......"
"I'm sorry, I'm busy with government affairs, so I don't have time. ”
"Okay, forget it. ”
Saying that, Wang Chen used time rewind, back to when he didn't look for Lu Duosun a minute ago, yes, he relied on having time to go backwards, and he was not afraid of startling the snake at all.
The next target was Sima Wangyou, the march of the Zhenguo army.
This time, Wang Chen learned to be smart, and began to flicker with his mouth.
"Wang Sima. ”
"Yo, isn't this a national teacher, why are you here?"
"Haha, both of us are surnamed Wang, maybe they were still a family five hundred years ago, so I came to visit you. ”
"It's definitely an old honor to be able to be the same family with the national teacher five hundred years ago, by the way, what are you looking for me?"
"I believe that Wang Sima has also heard some rumors recently, saying that His Majesty's health is not well, what about me, as a big city god who protects the country, watching the sky at night, and found some clues, and found that the purple micro star is flickering bright and dark, and recently it has suddenly shone brightly, and the starlight was cast into the palace the night before yesterday, Wang Sima, do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood, let me think about it. ”
"Good. ”
“…… I've been waiting for the national teacher for a long time, I'm sorry, I'm a layman, I really don't know what astrological signs, you better ask another master, if we have a chance, let's sit down and drink tea and talk about the Four Books and the Five Classics. ”
"Okay, that's a pity. ”
Wang Chen knew that it was impossible for Wang You not to understand, Zi Weixing was the emperor star, and he said that Starlight was thrown into the palace, which probably meant that Zhao Defang could inherit the throne, after all, Zhao Dezhao, Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Yanmei, the three people who had the hope of inheriting the throne, had no right to enter and leave the palace freely, only Zhao Defang could, but Wang You pretended to be stupid, obviously refusing.
Wang Chen had no choice but to use time rewind again.
I found four or five people with a bit of status in a row.
Wang Chen's routine is very simple, first using the identity of the national teacher to bluff the other party, and then moving out of his own eyes like a torch to find out who the new emperor star is, and then what I look at my brother's bones are surprised, and specially send a glory and wealth over, if you miss this village, there is no such thing as this shop, anyway, you can fool people to support Zhao Defang in disguise.
But nothing came of it.
When they heard that they wanted to support Zhao Defang, they all refused.
Wang Chen wasted several times of using the time lapse, he was very angry, and said in his heart What is this called, do you know who your buddy is? Buddy is a son of luck who can freely shuttle between the Northern Song Dynasty more than a thousand years later! You follow your buddy, and you still have to worry that you will fail? After supporting Zhao Defang to the throne one by one, he has the merit of following the dragon, and now I take the initiative to ask my grandfather to sue my grandmother to find the door, but you still refuse? Ordinary people want to hug their buddy's thighs and have not had a chance, which makes Wang Chen a little crying and laughing!
I don't know Mount Tai with eyes!
You've missed the best chance to soar!
But then again, it is very normal for everyone to be reluctant to support Zhao Defang, although Zhao Defang is out of the house and so young, and again, Lao Zhao has already vaccinated everyone in the court, otherwise it is natural for this situation to occur when contacting Wang Chen!
But what now?
Just relying on the small fish and shrimp that Zhao Defang was looking for, I can't even dream of it!
Because if Zhao Defang wants to succeed to the throne, when Lao Zhao dies, there is a possibility of a palace coup, no matter how powerful Wang Chen is, he can't stop thousands of troops, he needs enough manpower to insert it, especially the forbidden army in the palace, it must be according to a certain number of manpower, the problem is, no one supports him, how to insert people into it?
Unless there is a big force that can give it a boost.
Big power?
That's right!
Wang Chen suddenly remembered that a person, Empress Song, who can marry the emperor and become the empress, the family power will definitely not be bad, if Empress Song is willing to support herself, then many things can be made simple!
Wang Chen's eyes lit up, and he didn't continue to look for someone, and went home directly.
……
Use teleportation to return to Zhao Defang's study.
Zhao Defang was not frightened when he saw a person suddenly appear in front of him, but said expectantly: "Teacher, how is it?"
"It's ok. Wang Chen slapped his swollen face and became fat, did not say in detail, and said bluntly: "You enter the palace now and visit the queen's physical condition." ”
Zhao Defang didn't react, "Huh?"
Wang Chen said: "When you go, by the way, knock on the side in front of your father, and say that the queen has not been cured for a long time, and it may be an evil spirit, not to mention the rest." ”
Zhao Defang didn't say anything, "Okay, I'll go to the palace." ”
Wang Chen said: "Let's go back to the palace together, along the way, I will teach you some arithmetic knowledge, you have to memorize it by rote, and then your father can answer when he asks, understand?"
"I know, I know what the teacher said by heart. Zhao Defang agreed.
The two quickly left the Four Princes' Mansion and headed towards the palace in a carriage, along the way, Wang Chen asked Zhao Defang to memorize some Arabic numerals, but he didn't teach them in too much detail, for fear that Zhao Defang would not be able to remember.
……
In the palace.
Zhao Defang went directly to visit Empress Song.
Wang Chen returned to his bedroom where he was "under house arrest", read the book slowly, and waited quietly, believing that as long as Zhao Defang proposed that Empress Song was "evil", Zhao Kuangyin, who was in a hurry to go to the hospital, might let himself contact Empress Song.
Sure enough, after waiting for an hour or so, in the evening, Zhao Kuangyin asked someone to pick up Wang Chen to go to the Queen Song's bedroom!
Wang Chen pressed his excitement and began to prepare how to contact Queen Song later, in fact, he just needs to know Queen Song's wishes, whether he really wants to see him, if so, everything will be easy to do next, of course, if not, he can use time back to turn back. Hopefully, this is the only force that Wang Chen has been able to win for Zhao Defang so far.
The most critical point is that if Empress Song is willing to support, the power that can be won by Empress Song's family will be further expanded.
……
Renmyeongjeon.
This is the bedroom of the Empress of Song, not far from Zhao Kuangyin's bedroom Qinzheng Palace, about more than 200 meters away, Wang Chen is now "house arrested" in a small wing of the Qinzheng Palace, if you want to come to the Queen Song's bedroom, you only need a teleportation.
This is also thanks to the fact that the Song Dynasty Imperial Palace is the smallest imperial palace in history, with a total area of only two kilometers, and naturally, the distance between the emperor's bedroom and the queen's bedroom cannot be too far.
Outside the dormitory.
Zhao Kuangyin's face looked a little anxious, and when he saw Wang Chen coming, he immediately stepped forward and said: "National teacher, the imperial doctor is helpless against the saint's disease, I wonder if it is evil, you are a fairy among the gods, help take a look." ”
"Good. Wang Chen nodded.
Zhao Kuangyin personally took Wang Chen into the queen's bedroom.
The place is not big, a little smaller than Zhao Kuangyin's bedroom, about fourteen or fifteen square meters, and the curtain was pulled down in front of the bed, so that he couldn't see the scene inside clearly.
There were also two imperial physicians standing outside the curtain with a panicked expression.
The three or four maids all lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak, obviously, they might have been scolded by Lao Zhao just now.
"Sage, I brought the national teacher to treat you. Zhao Kuangyin shouted inside, but did not open the curtain and go in, it seems that he is a little afraid that Queen Song is having an infectious disease.
A crisp but very weak voice came from inside, "There are labor officials who are worried." She paused and said, "I'm in trouble." ”
"Out of the way. Wang Chen said.
Zhao Kuangyin said: "National teacher, you see if there is any evil spirit in the house." ”
The curtain still hasn't been opened.
Wang Chen knew that there were strict regulations on treating patients in the harem in the ancient palace, just take the imperial doctor to see the queen's concubines, let alone touch the arm to check the pulse, generally speaking, he couldn't even see the face, although he was called by Zhao Kuangyin to see if there was any evil in the empress, but it was impossible to open the curtain to show himself.
It's just that Wang Chen must see Queen Song before he can determine whether she wants to see him.
"Your Majesty, I'm going to make a move, and I must not let anyone speak out next. Wang Chen explained.
Zhao Kuangyin agreed.
Wang Chen took a deep breath, turned on the virtual screen, first clicked on the clear observation, and looked into the curtain.
I saw a woman in purple clothes lying on the bed, the style of the clothes was a bit like underwear, but the material was very high-end, and a little transparent, and the tender flesh on her body could be faintly seen...... Ahem, okay, in fact, if Wang Chen wants to see Queen Song's body, as long as he controls his mind and sees everything, it's just that it's too obscene, and it's not that he hasn't seen a woman, so he is too lazy to do that.
Wang Chen looked at Empress Song carefully.
I saw that she opened her eyes slightly, her face was sickly red, as if she was really sick with a very serious illness, even so, she still couldn't hide her beauty, Queen Song's skin was better than snow, her eyes were like a pool of clear water, and she had an elegant and elegant temperament between Gu Pan, which made people feel ashamed of herself and dare not blaspheme.
Pretty, very beautiful indeed.
Wang Chen secretly appreciated in his heart, he was worthy of being a person who could become a queen, and his appearance was really not much worse.
Well, now is not the time to appreciate beautiful women, he has more important things to do.
Wang Chen turned on the soul snatcher, only for Queen Song alone, and transmitted a passage to the past: Don't make a noise, I am the national teacher Wang Chen, the great mana I use to talk to you, only the two of us can hear, I ask, do you have something to say to me and specially pretend to be sick, if so, nod lightly, if not, shake your head.
He thought about it, if Empress Song made a statement, he would immediately use time rewind, if not, then continue to talk.
Empress Song, who was originally half-open her eyes, heard the voice, suddenly opened her eyes, and looked at Wang Chen's position through the curtain in surprise, she didn't react immediately, but confirmed that Zhao Kuangyin, the imperial doctor and the maids really didn't hear it, so she nodded slowly.
Call.
It's good if it's true.
Wang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then used the Soul Snatcher to pass a passage again: This is not the time to speak, tonight, you retire the maid, and my son will appear in your dormitory at the beginning, and then we will talk in detail, if you think you can nod again.
Empress Song hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and nodded.
After explaining, Wang Chen directly turned off the dementor and discerning, then looked at Zhao Kuangyin, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the queen was indeed hit by the yin spirit, but it is not in the way, I can return to normal in two days after casting the spell, but I need to make her cleaner in these two days." ”
Zhao Kuangyin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "That's good, that's good, there's Lao Guoshi." ”
Next, Wang Chen pretended to be a ghost, and then left.
Zhao Kuangyin is even more grateful, and it can be seen that Queen Song has some weight in his heart.
However, Wang Chen secretly laughed, and said in his heart that I would come to steal your wife at night...... Eh, no, you secretly discussed things with your wife, and thanked me? Tsk, Lao Zhao, you reminded me of Lin Yuantu, who likes green hats.
