Chapter 209: Persuasion

Zhao Shuo's expression moved slightly, although he was silent, it was obvious that he had been moved by his son Zhao Mo's words. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's just that he still has some concerns: "Mo'er, you are still young, and you think that your father is the eldest son, and you can be captured as the son of this world." In fact...... There are many unspeakable reasons here, which make the father dare not open his mouth to the emperor, and even if he does, the matter will not be possible. ”

Zhao Mo smiled and disagreed: "What my father said is that the emperor may plan to take the position of the prince as a condition and exchange it with the prince when he succeeds you, as long as the prince does not stop the emperor from succeeding you, the emperor will directly decree that the second uncle will be appointed as the prince of Liao?"

Zhao Shuogan laughed: "So you also heard about it, but Yongjiahou told you?" Yongjiahou Qin Bai once sued Zhao Mo in front of the emperor for what happened to him, and it was reasonable for the emperor to tell Yongjiahou about these things.

Zhao Mo didn't answer his words, but said, "Father, your concerns are not unreasonable, but that was in the past. Now that the prince and the Shu Wangfu have joined forces to frame you, once you are convicted, let alone succeeding the royal family, even the position of the prince of Liao, it will not be your turn. When the time comes, the second uncle, as the second son, will be a legitimate candidate for the prince, so will he still need to make any deal with the emperor? Unless the emperor intends to get rid of the prince of the Liao Palace, the emperor will not reject it as long as the prince asks for the title as soon as he asks for the title. Take 10,000 steps back and say, this time the conspiracy between the prince and the Shu Wangfu cannot succeed, you are safe and sound, and you will be appreciated by the emperor in the future and successfully enter the royal family...... At that time, the emperor asked the prince, with the ruthlessness of the prince, would he really agree to succeed? I only hated him, the old man hated you a long time ago, and would rather offend the emperor than ruin your future. And the royal family also wants fame, so you can't take on the infamy of taking people's heirs for the sake of an heir, right?

Zhao Shuo's face changed suddenly. Indeed, the King of Liao has been ruthless to him, the eldest son, to the point of designing a frame-up, how could he successfully enter the royal family and become a high-ranking prince?

Zhao Mo saw him change his face, and then said slowly: "Therefore, the son will persuade his father to fight for the title of the prince of Liao first." As you said, it's better to have a name than nothing. Now the Shu Wangfu is menacing, and the Wang family is always dragging you back, and even your momentum is weak. What if you really can't compete for the youngest son of the King of Shu...... You are still the prince of Liao, you won't have nothing!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Mo paused: "Don't think that my son is just looking for a way back for you." It is important to know that this back road is not necessarily not dependent. Think about it, now you are only the eldest son of the Liao Wangfu, you are not valued by the prince, and you can't even interfere in the military affairs of Liaodong...... There is only that bit of private silver. But if you become the prince of Liao, it will be different. Not to mention the money and food, this is a title officially canonized by the imperial court, and it is not something that the prince can abolish lightly based on his own preferences. As long as you don't do anything against the grain, no matter how partial the prince is to the second uncle and the younger uncle, the prince of the Liao King will be yours sooner or later. You can naturally meddle in the military affairs and official affairs of Liaodong, or you can ask about the personnel of the palace. Not to mention anything else, there are people in the army who sell military horses privately, and are used by the prince to frame you, if you are the prince, there will be smart people to surrender to you, and if you want to inquire about something, it will not be as difficult as now. What if the second uncle has more face in the Liaodong Army now? He can't be a family member or master, and sooner or later the power will still be in your hands!"

Zhao Shuo took a deep breath, and his heart beat faster and faster. Indeed, if he becomes the prince of Liao, as his son said, even if he fails to enter the East Palace in the future, he still has a way to live. At the beginning, he would give up everything to enter Beijing, in fact, it was just to earn a way out of life under the coercion of the concubine of the king of Liao and her two sons. Entering the royal family and becoming the new crown prince after the death of the crown prince or something, that is the ambition that the Wang family mentioned first, and he was born.

Looking back, the path he is taking now has deviated far from his original intention at the beginning.

Zhao Shuo couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Actually, I've thought about it a long time ago...... After entering Beijing, the title of the son of the world was first implemented. It's just that Wang Shangshu advised me to think deeply, I am not a son of the world one day, and the princess and her two sons can still let me live, so that they will not force me to a dead end and ruin my future for no reason. When I become the new lord of the East Palace, the title of the prince of Liao is still Zhao Li's, which is exactly what my father and the princess want, wouldn't everyone be happy? If I become the prince early, I am afraid that the princess will no longer be able to tolerate it, and sooner or later she will poison me!" At that time, he listened to his father-in-law's words, and he had too many concerns, and as a result, he missed the best opportunity to ask for the seal. Now if you want to seek the position of the son of the world again, I'm afraid it's not so easy.

Zhao Mo said: "Wang Shangshu is for you to succeed the royal family to have less obstacles, but once you fail, for the Wang family, it is just to give up a son-in-law, just like the prince of the former Jin Dynasty." How can he really think about your life and death? Facts have proved that even if you don't be the son of that world, the princess, the second uncle, and the younger uncle will not let you go, and now even the prince regards you as a thorn in his side. At this point, what else is there to worry about? Even if it's to anger them, it's worth trying. Besides, the prince and the princess entered Beijing just to congratulate the queen mother on her birthday. As soon as the Queen Mother's birthday is over today, they will always have a day to go back. You don't live in the palace of the capital, you don't have much contact with them, and you are more wary on weekdays, even if they want to attack you, it is not so easy. ”

Zhao Shuo hesitated: "My father once mentioned that this trip to Beijing also wanted to settle your second uncle's marriage by the way." This looks, marries, engagements, and marriages...... Before and after, no matter how fast it is, it will take half a year. Even if half a year later, the father and the princess go back to Liaodong, it is not impossible for your second uncle to stay in the capital and find an errand. When the time comes, he has a family to rely on, and he wants to attack me, which adds to the help. ”

Zhao Mo tugged at the corners of his mouth: "If the King of Shu is stranded in Beijing under the pretext of being busy with his son's marriage, the emperor may not say anything for the sake of the Queen Mother, but how can our prince's holy family be compared with the King of Shu? At that time, the emperor will definitely use the military affairs of Liaodong as an excuse to let the prince go back to the domain as soon as possible, and come back when the big day is approaching. As for what to do after the second uncle stays in Beijing after marriage...... You also have the Yue family to rely on, and you came a year earlier than him, so what are you afraid of him? With the talent of the second uncle, how big can the Yue family he can find be? Moreover, all the noble eunuchs in Jingzhong are all human spirits. The second uncle is not even a son of the world, so do other families really want to risk killing people at the feet of the Son of Heaven for the sake of a new son-in-law? I really want the court to find out, but it's a big crime of raiding my family and destroying my family! Wang Cao wants to harm me as a half-grown child, and I end up in a different place, not to mention that my father is a hundred times more valuable than me, and the emperor values him?"

Zhao Shuo took another deep breath, and was already persuaded by his son: "You're right...... In the past, I just thought too much, worried about this, and worried about that, and as a result, I was restrained everywhere, and I couldn't do anything I wanted. My father is already ruthless to the point of harming my life, and he doesn't even think about the friendship between father and son, so I even have to look at his face? Since I had long planned to expose his true face as a father in front of the emperor, why should I care about his opinion and refuse to fight for the position of the son? I am his eldest son, and I should be the son of the world. Even if the emperor has concerns, he is afraid that when he succeeds me in the future, my father will not agree, and it is a big deal to change the title of Zhao Li. Although it is more troublesome, it is better than me suffering from the loss of this worldly name!"

Zhao Mo saw that he had made a decision, and smiled: "Is my father sure, how can I mention the matter of canonizing the prince to the emperor?"

Zhao Shuo smiled: "What's so difficult about this? Of course, it's not up to me to speak, but there are people in the Wang family in the Ministry of Rites, just in the book." He smiled mockingly, "The daughter of the Wang family has not stopped since she married into my family, and she has done so many unvirtuous and bad things, and today she still attacks my beloved concubine, intending to harm my heirs." If the Wang family really wants his daughter to keep her position in the main room, and she can enjoy the glory and wealth in the future, how can she show a little sincerity. They said that they would help me succeed in Beijing, but they only dragged it back. I don't expect them to really help me enter the East Palace, I have to rely on my own ability. But if they can't win the position of a prince for me, then don't put the family in front of me anymore, and expect me to obey a stupid woman!"

Zhao Mo smiled and got up and bowed deeply: "Son, I wish my father all his wishes come true as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Shuo slowed down his expression, stepped forward cordially to help his son up, and patted him on the shoulder: "Good boy, father understands your filial piety." You can rest assured, no matter what the Wang family says, you will always be your father's eldest son. Father will not learn from the prince's partiality, and will never forget your credit. ”

Zhao Mo didn't believe it in his heart, but his face showed a moving look, and his eyes were red: "Father, don't say that, as long as you can get your wish, your son will be satisfied, and he doesn't dare to mention any credit." ”

Zhao Shuo laughed and patted him a few more times: "Okay, it's not too early, you're tired for a day, go back and rest early." Sleep more tomorrow, and you don't have to come to the main courtyard to say hello. When your father enters the palace, if your wife calls you, you only say that you should do the homework assigned to you by your father, and don't pay attention to her. When my father comes home, we will talk about it in detail. ”

Zhao Mo responded, bowed respectfully, and retreated. Zhao Shuo watched his son leave, with a satisfied smile on his face.

He didn't know that after Zhao Mo turned around and left the study, his whole body seemed to be relieved.

Finally said that the father was moved. Next, there is a good show to watch......
