Chapter 358: Strike

King Liao listened to the words of Zhao Shuo and Zhao Mo with an expressionless face, and simply said four words: "I know." ”

Probably because he was too calm and too light-hearted, Zhao Shuo thought that he didn't understand the seriousness of the matter, so he couldn't help but ramble: "Father, do you really understand how important this matter is? Don't think that this is only related to my future, and the entire Liao Wangfu can't escape! The second brother was bent on embarrassing me, and he didn't know what kind of madness he was going on, and he even stared at my backyard ......."

Before he could finish speaking, King Liao interrupted him: "If you didn't leave a handle for others, why did you have such trouble today?!"

Zhao Shuo choked for a moment and said reluctantly: "But...... If I weren't the son of King Liao, such trouble wouldn't have befallen me. Even if it's back then...... If you are more attentive to the people waiting around me, you can ask the chief of the palace to assign me manpower, instead of me collecting manpower myself, and there will be no such a problem......"

The King of Liao didn't bother to tell him more. He has collected more people, has eyes and beads to recognize the wrong person, and regards the Beirong secret spy as a henchman and a woman in the backyard, do you want to blame others for not reminding him?

King Liao had no hope for his eldest son, and only looked at him coldly: "I long expected that you were a dou who couldn't be supported, but I didn't expect that even the second child was a fool." Your brothers are more stupid than the other, where is it like my son?!"

Zhao Shuo's face suddenly turned red, and his heart was full of humiliation and resentment.

King Liao then turned his eyes to look at Zhao Mo, and his expression softened a little: "It's just that the grandson is still a little like that, but it's a pity that it's ......" He paused and didn't continue.

It's a pity that this grandson is not close to him and refuses to stand aside with him. Otherwise, with this grandson here, the Liao Wangfu can be regarded as a successor. Why can't Zhao Mo be Zhao Li's son? If he is Zhao Li's son, even if he is Zhao Yan's son, King Liao feels that he has nothing to worry about. There is no suitable candidate for the position of the son, so it is better to cultivate the grandson directly than to watch one son after another make stupid mistakes, and the only son who is somewhat reliable is crippled and extreme.

Zhao Mo didn't react to King Liao's words, he just stood there calmly and made a deferential gesture in silence.

Zhao Shuo couldn't help but feel jealous in his heart, and he was also a little disapproving. The son is his, if there is no him, where would the King of Liao have such a good grandson? No matter how outstanding Zhao Mo is, it is because of his father, but Zhao Mo has better luck than his father. His biological mother died early, and he didn't meet a good father, a good stepmother, a good brother, or a noble person who really helped his future, unlike Zhao Mo, with his own good father, he could still win the favor of Yongjiahou, and even get the emperor and the prince to look at him differently. It's really time, and it's fate.

Of course, King Liao didn't pay attention to what his eldest son was thinking, he just got up and walked out: "I will deal with this matter, you can go back." ”

Zhao Shuo came back to his senses and said busily: "I'll go with my father, and I must explain the matter to the princess and second brother!"

"No!" King Liao left without looking back, no need to think about it, he knew what Zhao Shuo was thinking, he wanted to take the opportunity to ridicule the princess and Zhao Li, right? Even if Zhao Li was confused, he was still his beloved son, so he would not allow an idiot like Zhao Shuo to take the opportunity to retaliate against Zhao Li!

Zhao Shuo was bored, touched his nose in a wry, and turned to Zhao Mo: "The prince really knows how to ...... Can he really stop Zhao Li from poking out Lan Xue's affairs?"

Zhao Mo said lightly: "Looking at the reaction of the prince, my father should know it in his heart." He doesn't make a fuss about Lan Xue and has the intention of pulling you down from the throne of the world. ”

"That's not right......" Zhao Shuo looked puzzled, "Why is the prince so calm? There are Beirong secret spies lurking in the Liao Wangfu for more than ten years, this is not a trivial matter, why does the prince not scold me? This really doesn't seem like what he will do." ”

That, of course, is because King Liao has known about it for a long time.

But Zhao Mo didn't say anything, just stood silently on the side. He wasn't interested in giving Zhao Shuo another chance to count himself down. Zhao Shuo may not understand that if this matter is to be resolved, it is impossible to bypass the Liao Wangfu, but he will only feel that his son will tell the Liao King such a secret, which is a betrayal, right?

Zhao Shuo sighed and said, "Okay, if this matter can be successfully concluded, I can't stay with Lan Xue anymore." This time, it is because it is related to the safety of the Liao Palace, and the prince will help me suppress the matter. If others find out, I may not be able to have such good luck. I have to sweep away all traces as soon as possible, completely eradicate that group of Beirong spies, and never let any rumors reach the palace!"

Zhao Mo blinked, pursed his lips, lowered his head and did not speak.

When the King of Liao came to the outside of the upper room in the main courtyard, he happened to hear Zhao Li talking to the concubine of the King of Liao: "It is true! The son has already ordered someone to find out, and the concubine named Lan Xue is very similar to the Beirong people in terms of diet and behavior! She also has the mark of a certain tribe in Beirong, and you see, it is this pattern on this dress." The son asked the mother-in-law in Zhao Shuo's mansion, and she said that she seemed to have seen this mark on Lan Xue's body, which was on her arm. As long as the concubine called someone over and took it down, and found that there was indeed this mark on her body, Zhao Shuo would not think about quibbling!"

Before the step-concubine of the King of Liao could speak, the King of Liao couldn't help it, lifted the curtain and entered the door, and said with a cold face: "Confused things! You are making people calculate, almost harming our entire palace, and you are still dreaming here?!"

Zhao Li was startled, and when he turned around to see that it was his father, he was still a little confused: "Father, what did you say?"

The step-concubine of the King of Liao also looked at the King of Liao very happily: "What is the difference between what the prince said? Although our mother and son have never discussed this matter with you, you would have agreed to this matter if you asked Zhao Shuo to get out of the position of the prince and change the son! If we hadn't found Zhao Shuo's handle, the major palaces in the clan would not have been willing to help us speak, and the matter would not have dragged on until today. Could it be that the prince has repented again now?!"

The King of Liao said angrily: "Li'er thought that Lan Xue was from Beirong, and only listened to a mother-in-law who said some specious evidence, so she decided that this was Zhao Shuo's handle, and she didn't even discuss it with me, how reckless?! Do you know that this is a trap at all! The mother-in-law who revealed the news to Li'er's person is also a Beirong spy, why did she deliberately betray the news of her own people to Li'er?" You wait and see, as long as you sue the Zongren Mansion and say that Zhao Shuona Beirong woman is a concubine, someone will sue us for the Liao Palace, saying that our palace is negligent and conniving at the Beirong spies to wreak havoc in the territory, and even push the past few defeats of our Liao Wangfu to this matter. Zhao Shuo can't please me, can it be that our Liao Wangfu will have good fruits to eat?! I can't even keep the title of prince this time, you are still dreaming!"

The step-concubine of the king of Liao and Zhao Li were taken aback, and the former looked suspicious: "This ...... How could this be? This is a trap set by the Beirong people? Why did they do this?!"

King Liao sneered: "What else can be the reason? Our Liao Wangfu has been guarding Liaodong for decades, and the enmity with the Beirong people is not deep? As long as it can make our family unlucky, they are just sacrificing one or two discarded chess pieces, so why not?"

"The prince is saying......" The step-concubine of the king of Liao couldn't help but be stunned, "You already knew?!"

"Naturally, I already knew. King Liao said angrily, "You only care about scolding Yan'er all day long, you don't know that Yan'er has already found out about this matter and told me." I also sent someone back to Liaodong to investigate thoroughly, and some traces have been swept away, otherwise we won't even have a chance to say a word to defend ourselves when the Beirong people carry out a conspiracy and frame the Liaowang Mansion for a crime of negligence!"

The step-concubine of the King of Liao was taken aback again, but Zhao Li's expression was a little unpleasant. He felt as if he had been calculated by his younger brother, when did Zhao Yan make such a contribution? He didn't even say a word to his brother?!

King Liao looked at Zhao Li: "Lan Xue, where did you learn about it?" He obviously ordered someone to keep it secret, and I believe that Zhao Shuo would not be stupid enough to leak such a fatal confidential information.

Zhao Li pouted and said: "Didn't that Lan Xue claim to be brother and sister with Lan Fusheng?" Lan Fu's life and death are unclear, the clansmen in his hometown know that Lan Xue is the culprit, and they resent Zhao Shuo for being bewitched by beauty, so he actually killed his loyal servant, so he sued me......"

King Liao only felt ridiculous: "What nonsense are you talking about? Lan Fusheng is also a spy of Beirong, and he is Lan Xue's accomplice at all! Where did he come from some of his clansmen from his hometown? Unless he is also from Beirong!"

"What?!" Zhao Li listened dumbfounded. What does this mean...... He's been tricked?!

The concubine of the Liao King also came to her senses: "Those Beirong people are planning to provoke De Li'er to denounce Zhao Shuo, and then design a frame-up to drag our Liao Wangfu into the water, the court will only think that it is Li'er and Zhao Shuo's brothers fighting, and will not find out that there are Beirong people behind this ...... ghosts."

She bit her lip and looked at her eldest son angrily: "Li'er is too anxious to be used! Those so-called evidence must be untenable, so it looks like he deliberately framed his brother." Even if the Liao Wangfu will not be severely punished in the end, Li'er's path to the son of the world has been cut off. The emperor will not let the person who framed his brother become the prince of Liao!" And the scandal of the Liao Wangfu has a brother's wall, and it will also be discredited, and the royal family wants to demote the lord or punish it, there is a reasonable excuse.

Zhao Li's face was red and white for a while, and he couldn't believe that he was so smart that he fell for the Beirong people so easily. Are they playing him for fools?

What made him even more unacceptable was that he really believed them! Just a stranger he met on the road in a restaurant could play him around, and almost hurt himself and his whole family!

Zhao Li couldn't accept this fact, and looked up at his parents, only to feel that their eyes were full of disappointment and disgust for themselves. He couldn't help but scream, turned his head and rushed out of the house.

The step-concubine of the king of Liao was full of worry: "Come on, follow the second son!" She saw that someone had indeed followed her son, so she turned back to the king of Liao and said, "Lord, the people of Beirong are so cunning and vicious, you must not spare them!"

King Liao said with a straight face: "This is nature. It's just a ...... If it weren't for Yan'er's injured leg, I really wouldn't want to choose such a stupid son as the heir!"

He threw up his sleeves and left, leaving only the step-concubine of the king of Liao in the house, her face was red for a while, white for a while, and her face was very ugly.
