Chapter 193: Resentment

Zhao Shuo couldn't help but be surprised, the three things Zhao Mo said to him all hit his weakness.

What Princess Shu said implied that the queen mother and concubine in the palace were dissatisfied with Zhao Shuo's behavior, and their impression was greatly reduced, and there may be a boost from the Shu family. If the palace is dissatisfied with Zhao Shuo, the possibility of him joining the royal family will be greatly reduced.

And the step-concubine of the Liao King intends to marry the daughter of the Wang family for her son, which may make Zhao Shuo's biggest help to the Wang family at present. In case the Wang family felt that there was no hope for his son-in-law, it would be very common to kick him away and find another clan as a supporter. Didn't they just kick out the prince of Jin and choose him instead?

As for this third thing, even if Zhao Shuo felt wronged, he also knew that his biological father's complaint would definitely not be ignored by either the emperor or the imperial court. If he is really convicted of being a foreign country, let alone being the prince of the East Palace, it is still unknown whether he can save his life! This directly cuts off his future and back road. If the King of Liao really handed over this notebook, Zhao Shuo would have no future at all. He could almost immediately conclude that the Wang family would definitely abandon him immediately!

King Liao knew what the consequences of this recital would bring, but he still decided to do it, which shows that he no longer has the slightest affection for his eldest son. Zhao Shuo was sad and frightened in his heart. He thought that he and his father had a tacit understanding. He went to Beijing to fight for the future, and his father acquiesced to his behavior and did not hinder him. When he succeeds in entering the East Palace, the position of the prince of Liao will fall to the second brother, and he will ascend the throne as the emperor in the future, and he will also be more tolerant of the Liao king's lineage. For the Liao King, who has never been in the ninety-five phase, his own son sitting in that seat can be regarded as fulfilling his wish, right? Who would have expected him to suddenly change his face?!

Now that the King of Liao has changed his face, that tacit understanding naturally does not exist. Even if this time, the king of Liao can't sue him, and if he wants to ruin his future in the future, he can use another means to tell him how to prevent it?

Zhao Shuo sat down on the chair weakly, his face pale. He was both excited and aggrieved: "Why did my father falsely accuse me?!

Zhao Mo looked at him and asked in a deep voice, "Did my father really not do it?" Zhao Shuo was short of money this year, he knew it. Even the dowry left by his mother was taken away by his father, and the forest farm was almost wiped clean by his father's practice of drying up the water and fishing. If he had the chance, his father might have done something to sell military horses. Zhao Mo grew up in Liaodong, although he had never interfered in military affairs, he had also heard some rumors, and knew that some generals in remote guards could not endure the bitter cold, thinking that the border pass was peaceful, there had been no war for a long time, and no one came to check, so he privately resold some of his military horses and ordnance in exchange for money, grain, wine and meat. It wouldn't be surprising if my father was involved.

However, Zhao Shuo denied his speculation: "Of course I haven't done it! I'm in Liaodong, how can I ever meddle in military affairs? Where do I have the ability to sell military horses without permission? Your grandfather wanted to lock me up in the palace and be idle, on the one hand, he hated me for not knowing military affairs, could not inherit his mantle, and could only study, and on the other hand, he did not allow me to meddle in military affairs. If I am useless, how can I do such a big thing? If it is said that your second uncle did it, it is still somewhat credible. He was complacent at the age of fourteen, and he was always taken by your grandfather, in and out of the army. Liaodong generals, eight out of ten have drunk and boxed with your second uncle. He's another big spender. I can't say that I used to do something unseemly in collusion with others for a few more taels of silver, but now I am guilty of blaming me!"

The more Zhao Shuo thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, he couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately got up: "I have to go to your grandfather to ask for an understanding." How could he treat me like that?!"

Zhao Mo got up and blocked in front of him: "Father, don't be impatient." This is the news I came to inquire about, and the book hasn't been sent to the palace for a while. The Queen Mother's birthday is approaching, and if the prince goes to the book at this time, he will inevitably sweep away the Queen Mother's prosperity. Even if he could put you to death, he would lose his heart. Why should he be in a hurry?"

Zhao Shuo was right to think about it, and calmed down a little, but he was still anxious: "No one knows when your grandfather will go to school, what if he is really confused? In order to cut off my future as soon as possible, he can't even take care of the Queen Mother's complaints, it's not impossible!"

"When did my father annoy the prince and make him put his father to death a few days earlier at the risk of angering the queen mother?" Zhao Mo stared at Zhao Shuo with his eyes, "There must be a reason for this, right? It's only been a few days? How did this happen? If you don't find out about this, what if your father goes to see the prince? Are you sure you can stop the prince from complaining?"

Zhao Shuo took a few deep breaths, wiped his face, and calmed down again. He sat back in his place, leaning weakly on the armrests of the circle chair, and began to think about the irrationality of the matter.

He asked Zhao Mo: "Where did you get the news?"

Zhao Mo replied: "Among those male and female servants who came out of the Liao Palace, there is a mother-in-law, who was originally doing pulp washing work in the yard of you and your mother. She has a good cousin, and the son she gave birth to is a little maid waiting for pen and ink in the prince's study. Because the husbands of her cousins were not harmonious in their early years, they did not have much contact, and the princess did not watch out. When I sent that mother-in-law to the Liao Wangfu to inquire about the news, she first went to the residence of a relative who stayed in the palace in the capital, and happened to meet her cousin there. It was the other party who knew that she was following me now and reminded her to find a way out as soon as possible. After all...... If something happens to you, I, as your son, will not end well. When the time comes, the people who will follow me will have to fend for themselves. ”

Zhao Shuo sneered and asked again: "So, your grandfather ...... I really prepared this book a long time ago, just waiting for the opportunity to enter the palace?"

Zhao Mo replied: "That mother-in-law's cousin just heard a few words from her son, and she didn't know the inside story. But listening to her tone, this recital should have been written before entering Beijing. Moreover, the prince and princess seem to plan to spend some time in the capital, set the position of the second uncle's son, and then marry a good family for him before returning to Liaodong. In this way, I am afraid that it will take at least half a year. For such a long time, when will the prince not be able to deliver that post?"

Zhao Shuo sneered, but then, he felt disheartened: "Why? Why did he do this? I didn't plan to compete with his two beloved sons for the throne, didn't they all avoid the capital?! What else does he want me to do? Could it be true that he wants me to die in front of him before he can be willing?

Zhao Shuo was snubbed by his father since he was a child, and he was often treated unfairly, so he had already endured it in his heart. In the past, he still had hope, and he endured this breath, as long as he entered the East Palace one day, he was afraid that he would not be able to handle the vicious stepmother and brother? He was afraid that his father would not let go of his body when the time came? But now, seeing that he has a good future, he will be ruined by his biological father, and this breath is still unbearable after all. In front of his son, he couldn't help but vent the anger in his chest.

Zhao Mo listened to his venting words silently, and waited until he finally quieted down before he spoke: "The prince will not want to play his father for no reason." And the charges in the recital book will never be fabricated in the air. After all, you are a child of the clan, and now you are being valued by the saints, how can you be convicted because of your grandfather's book? I think there should always be some evidence in the hands of the prince? It must be evidence against you, otherwise how can you be convicted. ”

Zhao Shuo said dejectedly: "Even if there is no evidence, what if there is no evidence? Not to mention joining the royal family, I'm afraid that I won't even be able to get a prince. The princess just took the opportunity to set the position of your second uncle's son, and I was powerless to resist. Even if he was cleared of his innocence later, it would be useless. Now the queen mother and concubine in the palace are dissatisfied with me, and the Wang family happens to have a gap with me. I'm helpless right now. I really deserve to be a princess, I have always been the most shrewd, seeing that I am weak now, she just gave me a fatal blow, so that I can never turn over again!"

Zhao Mo said lightly: "But isn't this very strange? How can the princess calculate that you are in a weak position at this time, and prepared that fold early before entering Beijing? If it weren't for the fact that the King of Shu's family entered Beijing, the young son of the King of Shu was favored by the Queen Mother and the concubines, and you happened to have a gap with the Wang family, how effective would this letter be?" For example, when the prince handed the fold to the palace, he saw it in the royal servant who was on an errand in front of the palace, secretly pressed down the post for two days, handed you a letter, and then asked the Wang family to help you try to clear your name, wouldn't the fold be handed over in vain?

Zhao Mo's eyes were bright, staring at his father's face: "The prince's letter is really too coincidental, and the timing is just right, it really makes people wonder, is this really his old man's intention?"

Zhao Shuo's face changed, he thought about it carefully, and said slowly: "Speaking of which, Princess Shu can't help but know too well about the affairs of our Liao Palace. She obviously ignored you before, but now she suddenly shows favor to you and holds grievances for you...... Has she been keeping an eye on our family?"

Zhao Mo smiled and said, "Princess Shu's mind is not difficult to guess, the more unlucky her father is, the better it will be for her son, and she is naturally looking forward to your bad luck." The most important thing at the moment is to find out what happened in Liaodong first, why did the prince fold up to you? What evidence does he have in his hand to prove you? And ...... On the other side of the Wang family, should my father also go and find out what they mean? If they're willing to protect you, you'll have a lot easier. But if they don't want to protect you......"

Zhao Mo's expression was meaningful, Zhao Shuo had already understood what his son meant, and his expression was solemn: "I'll figure it out." They're still useful to me right now, I'm ...... to them It is also useful. They're not going to kick me out of the way. "Dealing with the twists and turns of the King of Liao, the Wang family can be called Zhao Shuo's biggest help at present.

Zhao Mo listened and smiled slightly: "I will move back to the Liao Wangfu in the afternoon and stay for two days." The people brought out of the palace, I am afraid that I will be embarrassed by the second uncle and the younger uncle, and I don't plan to bring them back. The Cheng'en Marquis Mansion has borrowed two of me, can my father lend me two more clever servants? ”

Zhao Shuo suddenly looked up at his son, his eyes flashing slightly.
