Zhao Mo returned to Qin Bai and told the truth told by Chang'er, and finally said: "If it's just a matter of the side, if it's for that stepmother, I will never be able to go back to Beijing." I hope that it is too late for her to be unlucky as soon as possible, and where can I have the leisure to take care of her? Besides, now that she has the protection of the Queen Mother, and her father can't stop her, I have no intention of going back to see her arrogant appearance. Uncle and grandpa have too few people here, so I'd better stay with you and listen to your orders. Over there in the capital, the Hengzhu Wang family has not yet fallen, and many of the daughters of the Wang family have married into the family of the royal family of the clan, I don't believe it, the seventh lady of the dignified Wang family, can there still be a lack of people around to take care of her?!"

Qin Bai also felt that Zhao Shuo, who was a father, was very unpleasant, and nodded: "It should be like this." It's not that you don't want to go back to Beijing to fulfill your filial piety, but that you didn't get along with your stepmother and mother-in-law, and you went back rashly. Besides, your stepmother is young, but a few years older than you. Now that you are growing up, even though you are a teenager, you are not far from becoming an adult. Under the melon field and plum, it is better to avoid it. Even if you do go back to your home in the capital, it is impossible for you to enter the house to take care of your stepmother. You don't have to worry about what your father will say about you, whether these truths are in trouble in the palace or spread to the people, you are in charge. If your father has anything else, let him come to me, and I will explain it to him!" "Anyway, the prince of Liao is now unwilling to give him face as Yongjiahou, so why should he save face for the other party?"

Zhao Mo's expression was warm, and he smiled: "Actually, most of these words are just excuses. I saw that my father was in a hurry to summon me back, but he still wanted me to enter the East Palace to say good things for him. I'm afraid that what he did before really angered the emperor, and he began to be anxious, so he panicked and used these unreasonable excuses to trick me back. ”

Qin Bai shook his head and said, "If your father's intentions are really like this, you shouldn't go back." How the emperor wants to send down the Wang family, and how to punish your father for being an accomplice to the Wang family, this is not something that your little child's family can interfere with. Stay away and you'll be able to get clean. If you are kept safe, your father and brother will have something to rely on. If even you are stirred up and suffer from the disaster of the pond fish, it will be difficult for your family to turn over. For the sake of the overall situation, it is better for you to continue to accompany my old man to hurry slowly. ”

Zhao Mo responded with a smile.

Qin Hanzhen, who was sitting on the side, always felt that something was wrong, tilted his head and meditated, and looked at Zhao Mo with doubts in his eyes. Zhao Mo looked at it and couldn't help but smile and asked, "Cousin, what's wrong?"

Qin Hanzhen told him honestly, where he couldn't figure it out: "Is that Chang'er your person?"

Zhao Mo was surprised, and then smiled: "How is it possible? Although he is quite familiar with me, he is naturally my father's person." If it weren't for that, my father wouldn't have sent him and another person named Sheng'er to me at the beginning, and moved into the Liao Wangfu in the capital with me, and asked the prince, the princess and the second uncle what kind of poisonous tricks they had set up to plot against my father. Besides, if it weren't for his confidant, my father wouldn't have sent him to deliver this letter to me. ”

"But...... That's why it's weird. Qin Hanzhen spat out, "Since this Chang'er is your father's person, not the spy you planted next to your father, then why did he tell you that your stepmother had a miscarriage and needed someone to take care of the inner house? Cousin Zhao, let me ask you, if it weren't for Chang'er's words, how would you guess what happened at home after reading your father's family letter?"

Zhao Mo was stunned, lowered his head and thought about it, and his face showed a little surprise: "If Chang'er didn't mention Xiao Wang's miscarriage, then after I read the family letter, I would only think that the previous Zhao Qi poisoning was still not clarified, his condition did not improve significantly, Aunt Lan was busy taking care of him, but Xiao Wang's family wanted to raise a fetus, and she was also suspicious." These two parties secretly confronted each other, and I don't know how many tricks they have made. My father is still busy gathering the power of the Wang family, so where does he have the leisure to take care of the trivial matters of the wives and concubines in the back house? Asking me to go back is an excuse, but it is also to use my hand to temporarily stabilize the chaos in the family. He is not afraid that I will secretly disadvantage his wife and concubine, because he will send someone to assist me, just to use my name to suppress Xiao Wang and Aunt Lan. ”

He smiled self-deprecatingly: "After all, there is no one else who can make Xiao Wang's family and Aunt Lan stop fighting and unite with the outside world except me." Now that one of them is pregnant and the other has a child, don't they all regard me, the eldest son, as a thorn in their side?"

"That's right!" Qin Hanzhen clapped his palms together, "Your father said vaguely in the letter, he should just want to trick you back, so he didn't mention your stepmother's miscarriage, because he knew that you didn't want to see Xiao Wang, and he would never be willing to go back to fulfill your filial piety to this stepmother." However, Chang'er, as your father's confidant, said so many things to you in private, as if he didn't know that you had a bad relationship with Xiao Wang. Or did he mean it?"

Zhao Mo was taken aback, and then frowned: "Cousin thinks that Chang'er is deliberately saying these things so that I can complain? But why is this? My father is anxious for me to return to Beijing, and it is impossible for Chang'er not to know that once I get angry, it is very likely that I will not obey my father's orders and refuse to rush back to the capital." Could it be that Chang'er is actually a spy sent by someone else, deliberately trying to harm my father?"

Qin Bai looked cautious: "Guanglu, this matter should not be underestimated, you should inquire about that Chang'er as soon as possible and find out what is going on! No matter whether your father angers the emperor and causes trouble, once he has a spy sent by outsiders, everything will be even more unclear." You need to beware of a villain who is ruthless and frames your family into a dead end!"

It's not that Qin Bai is timid, but that the Qin family of Yongjiahou Mansion was framed and ruined. Both the government and the opposition knew that the Qin family was wronged, but few people jumped out to avenge the Qin family, in order to obtain the "empirical evidence" mastered by Dali Temple. In fact, although these so-called evidence were found in the old marquis's study, they were full of flaws. Helplessly, several princes of the dynasty were bent on pulling the prince off the horse, so they were determined to cut off the prince's important arm to help the Yongjiahou Mansion, so they turned a blind eye and took those ridiculous forged letters as empirical evidence, and wanted to nail the Qin Hou family to death. That is, the first emperor was not completely confused at that time, and remembering the old exploits of the old marquis, he was exempted from the death penalty and exiled instead, so that the Qin family had the hope of Zhaoxue's recovery. However, those forged letters will appear in the old marquis's study, and naturally there will be a traitor to help. Qin Bai hated this kind of thing, and he was also very vigilant and sensitive, so he would seriously remind Zhao Mo to be careful.

Back then, the old marquis was innocent and innocent, and he could still be framed, not to mention that Zhao Shuo himself was covered with pigtails, and he was able to catch one of them. Why didn't Zhao Shuo know how to be obedient, and he almost suffered a big loss, and he didn't know about the people around him?

Zhao Mo was silent for a long time and didn't speak, and only after a while did he say, "Chang'er can't be a spy sent by outsiders. My father was very suspicious on a daily basis, and if he wasn't a confidant, he wouldn't have been able to entrust him with a heavy responsibility. Chang'er can pass his eyes, and there must be no problem with the origin. ”

Qin Hanzhen said: "Then you can ask Chang'er for clarification." If he is really your father's confidant, and once he knows that his words will prompt you to disobey his father's orders, he must say something, right?"

Zhao Mo saluted Qin Bai and went out again. He went directly to Shangchang'er this time and said bluntly: "I thought about it, although my father was in a hurry, I still continued to follow Yongjiahou slowly on the waterway." There are still a few stewards in the family, all of them are their father's henchmen, and they are afraid that they will not be able to take care of a few female dependents? In addition to the wife in the family, Aunt Lan is the mother, even if both of them are sick and can't be directors, there is no trouble. Madame, just go to Wang's house and invite a few people to come over to take care of it, which also saves Madame a mistake and makes people suspect that the father neglected his wife. The same is true for Aunt Lan and Xiao San'er. The girl is waiting, what is the matter with me? I am also old now, it is not good to go to the inner house, and I need to prevent others from gossiping. Otherwise, I won't be able to share my father's worries when I go back, and I will cause him new troubles, wouldn't it be even more unfilial?"

Chang'er was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and hurriedly smiled: "Brother, don't be willful, the prince is waiting for you to go back, how can you not be obedient......?

Zhao Mo sneered and interrupted him: "You don't make sense of what you're saying! You're not lying, could it be that my father deliberately hid my wife's miscarriage? But even if you tell me, what can you do?!"

If you don't tell you, how can you be so angry and refuse to go back as you are now? If you don't go back, the prince will only dislike the eldest son even more, and the lady will continue to have no one to rely on, and the back house will continue to be chaotic, so that people can have a loophole to exploit.

Chang'er smiled on his face, and repeatedly persuaded bitterly: "Since my brother thinks so, why should he violate the order of the prince? What good does this do to you? You are always the flesh and blood of the prince, although Yongjiahou has a few favorites, it is not the Qin family, and sooner or later you will have to go home." Annoyed the prince, it won't be you who will suffer in the future? Brother, don't let the little one be embarrassed, the little one was ordered to escort you back to Beijing, the errand was not done, the prince blamed it, and the little one can't afford it!"

Zhao Mo looked disapplieving: "It's okay, I will make it clear in the letter, I am getting older, but my stepmother is still young, I need to avoid it, it is right not to go back." What's more, I am a boy and I am not married, can I know how to take care of a woman who has a miscarriage? If you are worried that Mrs. Wang is still sick and Mrs. Wang should not leave home, then you can ask any aunt and grandmother of the Wang family to take care of Mrs. Wang. My father has always understood things and must understand my concerns, so why should he be embarrassed by you? If you are afraid that you will be punished when you send the letter back, you need not worry. I'll find someone else to do the reply, and you can stay on the boat with me. I've been away from Beijing for a long time, and I don't know anything about my family, so I need someone to talk to me. ”

Chang'er's face was already a little pale. What if Zhao Mo told the truth about his whistleblowing in the letter...... He can't defend himself, but he still has his parents and relatives, and they are still working under the prince Zhao Shuo. originally thought that he could successfully deceive his superiors and subordinates, but now it seems that he has taken a bad move.

Chang'er looked up at Zhao Mo, and saw that the other party's expression seemed to be smiling, and his two eyes seemed to have seen through everything. He couldn't help but feel a little weak in his legs.
