Chapter 279: Decision

Zhao Mo only said three things, and Zhen Zhong was stunned.

He neither explained the source nor came up with evidence to prove it, and after finishing speaking, he directly drove Zhen Zhong off the boat, so that the latter was shocked.

Zhao Mo looked at Zhen Zhong's dejected appearance on the shore from afar, sneered, and turned around to find Qin Hanzhen.

Qin Hanzhen had just come back from the main cabin, and was reading a book with him, when he looked up and saw him enter the door, he asked, "How is it?" What reason did that steward Zhen use to convince you?"

"It's just a cliché. Zhao Mo said lightly, "Zhen Zhong is stubborn, and he is loyal to my father, no one looks down on me except my father, and I think that my father will have other sons anyway, so my eldest son is not important at all." He has never been very polite to me, and today is no exception. I was a lot of angry with him, and now I suddenly felt bored, and I didn't want to endure it any longer, so I simply borrowed my cousin's previous inference and scared him away. ”

"My inference?" Qin Hanzhen tilted his head.

Zhao Mo smiled and briefly described the conversation he had with Zhen Zhong just now, and Qin Hanzhen listened to it funny: "He is probably too shocked to be intimidated by you." In fact, we are just speculating, and there is no evidence. If Zhen Zhong calmed down a little, he wouldn't be easily fooled by you. ”

Zhao Mo smiled a little faintly: "If it wasn't Zhen Zhong who came today, but Jiang Cheng or Shao Lusheng, I wouldn't have used these words to scare people." However, although there is no evidence, I still believe that your speculation is not unfounded, and may be true. It is not difficult for Zhen Zhong to go to check, the matter of Longfu Temple is not very long, and the small courtyard rented by Lan Xue is rented in the name of nobles, as long as they go to the monks in the temple to inquire, they can always find out the truth. Lan Xue was born well, dressed luxuriously, and had a big belly, such a noble woman went to the temple, neither incense, nor Buddha, but rented a small courtyard to meet people, so maverick, I am afraid that many people will remember her. It is also easy to inquire about which one the so-called noble person's long-term follower is. As long as there is one right Jing'er, even if my father is still confused, all the henchmen around him can't be stupid. ”

Xiao Wang's fake pregnancy is more difficult to verify, but now that things have changed, the Wang family must have relaxed a lot, and at this time, if you find the doctor who diagnosed Xiao Wang's pulse at the beginning, you may not be able to ask the truth. There are also the two daughters-in-law who were driven to Zhuangzi, if it was really because of Qin Han's true guess, then if someone asked, it was very likely that they would ask something. Although these two servants are Xiao Wang's companions, Zhao Mo believes that even if Xiao Wang's family wants to pretend to be pregnant, they will only let the henchmen around them know the truth, and will not tell the people in the entire courtyard about their tricks. If she was really sure that the person on the pulp wash would not leak the secret, why did she have to take the two daughters-in-law away?

And Lan Fusheng had already guessed Xiao Wang's fake pregnancy, and deliberately wanted to check her details and expose her lies, which was also not difficult to verify. The easiest way is to ask Lan Fusheng directly, how did he find out that Xiao Wang's was wrong? If you think his words are not credible, then skip him and ask others, such as the little girl who found that Xiao Wang's tonic soup has medicinal materials that are not good for pregnant women, what did Lan Fusheng tell her? From these small clues, it is not difficult to deduce what he thought at that time.

Zhao Mo said to Qin Hanzhen: "My family was played around by those two women, and I thought I could control the overall situation. When I listened to Zhen Zhong's ridiculous words, I felt that it was really unbearable. If they're stupid, don't drag me into doing stupid things with them. Since they couldn't figure it out, I simply woke them up, lest they be too idle and always love to get along with me. ”

Speaking of this, Qin Hanzhen also didn't understand: "Why is your father in a hurry to ask you to go back to Beijing? Just to let you go to the East Palace to intercede for him? Since he wrote your first letter to you urging you to go back, it has been almost half a month now, right? It's okay for so long, why is he in a hurry? With this time, it is better to think about how to show loyalty to the emperor and the crown prince." Can he expect your son to smooth everything out as soon as he returns?"

Zhao Mo frowned: "Zhen Zhong said that the palace refused to summon my father to see him, and my father's request to see him was also refused, and there are rumors in the clan that are not favorable to him." Although the emperor and the crown prince have not yet intended to punish him, he is like a frightened bird. I just don't understand, what did he do to make the emperor so angry? If he was just affected by the royal family, I don't believe it. The emperor is sage, if his father is really innocent, the emperor will never be angry with him because of the affairs of the royal family. ”

Qin Han really understood what he meant. The question is what did Zhao Shuo do? If it was because of what he did before, the emperor didn't say anything at that time, why did he suddenly turn his face now?

She said to Zhao Mo: "When you went to talk to Zhen Zhong, my grandfather received a letter from Jingli. The second uncle mentioned the latest news in Beijing in the letter, which may be of some help to you. ”

In the past few days, there has been another big news in the capital, and the protagonist of the news is still the Wang family.

Previously, after his brother Wang Er's death from illness, he claimed that he was sick, but he was really sick. According to the doctor who came to the door, Master Wang had been unconscious for several days, and even if he accidentally opened half of his eyes, he was still in a daze and confused. Therefore, the rumors that Lord Wang is attached to power and pretending to be sick are all rumors!

Not only was Master Wang sick, but even his eldest son, Uncle Wang, was too hard to serve in front of his father's bed for days, fainted, and couldn't wake up for several days. According to the doctor, he was overworked and damaged his vitality, and he needed to recuperate well to get back to normal.

The Wang family had no choice but to have the second master Wang come forward and present a recital to the emperor, resign for his father and brother, and by the way, he also helped himself resign. He planned to escort his father and brother back to his hometown to recuperate, and the home in the capital would be temporarily handed over to his younger brother Wang Siye to take care of.

This fourth master Wang is the son left by the last lady of the house, the young man lost his mother, his mother's family is not obvious, and he has no siblings, although he is a concubine, but he is very inconspicuous among the brothers, and he is not valued by the old man. He studied by himself, passed the examination and became famous, and it is rumored that he has been guarding the ancestral house in his hometown, taking care of the fields, and rarely appears in the circle of the powerful in the capital, but he did not expect that he has returned to the capital now.

Qin Hanzhen said: "This fourth master Wang, not many people outside know him, my second uncle said, he only heard the second aunt mention it, it seems that the fourth master Wang has fallen out of favor, and now this Mrs. Wang has something to do with it." After Master Wang fell ill, Second Master Wang called this brother from his hometown to help preside over the overall situation. Master Wang and Uncle Wang fell ill one after another, and the affairs of the family were all discussed and decided by the second master Wang and the fourth master. Even the matter of resignation was also the idea of the two brothers. I think this Fourth Master Wang is a decisive person, but I don't know when Master Wang was so honest that he really let his two sons resign for him?"

Zhao Mo smiled mockingly: "It's not necessarily that he is honest, it's just that he refuses to give up his position, and others may not be willing to be his victims." The three fathers and sons of the Wang family resigned, so that they could exchange for the safety of others and keep their official positions and reputations. But if they don't resign, maybe the He clan will be unlucky. The rest of the Wang family didn't want to be implicated, so they chose to sacrifice Lord Wang's father and son, which is not surprising. Their family's family style was not very upright. However, the second master Wang can see the situation clearly, and sacrifice his official position to fulfill his brothers and clansmen, even if he returns to his hometown in the future, his prestige and status in the family will probably not be inferior to that of his father and brother. This man is resolute and should not be underestimated. If he is also an ambitious man, he should beware. ”

Qin Hanzhen waved his hand: "Don't worry about this." I said that this Fourth Master Wang is very good, because it is rumored that he persuaded Second Master Wang that when he presented his resignation to the emperor, he also presented a list by the way, which is a list of their Wang family's good protégés and subordinates for many years, as well as relatives, etc., many of whom have handles in the hands of the Wang family, so the Wang family will have the confidence to make these people use for them. Wang Siye persuaded Wang Erye to donate this list, not only abolished his family's former connections, but also directly offended his former allies, causing their handles to fall directly into the hands of the emperor. In this way, although the Wang family can retreat and save themselves, if there are children of the Wang family who want to make a comeback in the future, those old allies will not let them have a good time. Wang Siye used this method to save the family and save his future, but he also cut off his father and brother's back road, which is really ruthless!"

Zhao Mo blinked, and couldn't help but sit up straight: "Really?!I remember...... My father has always wanted to close these connections of the Wang family......"

Qin Hanzhen nodded: "It should be these things, but they are useless now." ”

It's useless, even if Zhao Shuo can hold all these connections in his hands, it is equivalent to letting the emperor and the crown prince know. The Wang family submitted the list, which not only cut off their own back road, but also broke Zhao Shuo's arm. No wonder he's so grumpy......

Zhao Mo only felt a little like laughing: "Father was introduced by the Wang family to have a relationship with these connections, right? Now that those people have viciously poisoned the Wang family, they must not have a good impression of him, the son-in-law of the Wang family." Those people hate the Wang family, but they can't do anything about the Wang family, and it's not impossible to get angry with their father instead. If they had made any agreement with their father, and threatened them at this time, their father would naturally be afraid of the reaction in the palace. He laughed twice, "Seeking skin with the tiger, and now being eaten by the tiger, there is nothing to say." ”

Zhao Mo thought it through, but Zhen Zhong hadn't figured it out yet.

Early the next morning, Zhao Mo freshened up, and when he came to the main cabin, he was about to have breakfast, when he heard Zhen Zhong shouting himself on the shore again. He got off the boat with a gloomy face and went to see the other party: "We are about to leave for the capital, what does Uncle Zhen have to say to me? If you have to investigate what should be investigated, why bother pestering me?"

Zhen Zhong said: "What my brother said yesterday, we will naturally investigate, but the prince is still anxious to wait for his brother to return to Beijing to see him, and please don't embarrass us." As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Zhao Mo's arm, wanting to pull him to the carriage not far away.

Zhao Mo's face sank, and he was about to struggle, but he heard a group of people coming to Hula in the distance, and a familiar thirty-year-old inner prison was riding a horse and leading a group of soldiers over. The soldiers quickly cleared the wharf, and the inner supervisor dismounted with a smile and walked in front of Zhao Mo: "Shisun has always been good, our family has given you a decree and come to give you an edict." Oh no, it's time for our family to change their tunes, we should call His Royal Highness the King of the County!"

Zhao Mo was stunned, but soon understood what was going on, and smiled: "Why is my father-in-law here?" ”

Zhen Zhong was already stunned.
