Chapter 118: Piggyback
After Zhao Mo listened to Wu Shaoying's words, he was silent for a long time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wu Shaoying didn't say anything, just drank tea quietly. The tea was made by Qin Hanzhen himself.
Qin Hanzhen looked at him, then at Zhao Mo, and said, "Cousin Zhao, is there really a problem with this person called Fusheng?"
Zhao Mo looked up at her and smiled: "Don't do it." If he really colluded with Lan Xue, sooner or later he would be exposed. Also, the people under my father who have come to the Chengenhou Mansion are not only Zhen Zhong and Lan Fusheng, but also a little guy named Chang'er. Lan Fusheng originally wanted to leave him to wait for me, but I didn't agree. This little guy, I guess he should also be his confidant, and he is also a teenager. ”
Wu Shaoying thought for a while: "The person who went to Longfu Temple should not be him, that person is twenty or thirty years old, and he should be surnamed Lan." Coincidentally, his surname is Lan, and Ling Zun's aunt's maiden name is Lan Xue, and I don't know if these two are relatives. ”
Zhao Mo said lightly: "Whether they are relatives or not, the two of them can't get out of each other, and they can't believe it." ”
Wu Shaoying looked at him and smiled: "Zhao Xiaogongzi has a good idea in his heart." I heard that Ling Zun promised to send your old servant over? It must be almost there, right? Although these people are used to being called by Zhao Xiaogongzi, it is best to be on guard, maybe some of them will be eyes and ears and inform others about the diet and daily life of the little prince. ”
Zhao Mo said: "I also thought of this, so I should be on guard." I can't help it, the new servant may not be trustworthy, the old man is more reliable than the new man. However, I don't know for sure how many people will be sent this time. God knows if they will be embarrassed after they leave me, whether they will still be saved, and if everyone is safe, I am afraid that this will be a long time ago. There must be some reason why it will drag on until now. ”
Wu Shaoying sighed secretly, not all the children of this noble family can enjoy happiness. Zhao Mo's background is nothing to pick, his bloodline is noble, and he is the eldest son and grandson of the prince's mansion, he should have been born with a golden key, and he will enjoy all the glory and wealth for a lifetime. But he first met an unreliable grandfather, then an unreliable father, and lost his biological mother who loved him, and now he is in a situation where he has no home to return to. There are few people in the clan who are worse than him, but I'm afraid there are few people, right?
Thinking of this, Wu Shaoying suddenly remembered something, glanced at Qin Hanzhen, and secretly gave Zhao Mo a look, but with a smile on his face, he stood up: "Now that I have told you everything, you just know it in your heart." I'll go back to the guest room first, and I'll talk to you when I'm free. ”
Zhao Mo guessed that he was probably going to avoid Qin Hanzhen and talk to him about something, so he got up very cooperatively and said, "Mr. Hard." Did the two uncles beside him also come back to the house with him? I will give him a ride, and I will say hello to the two uncles and thank them as well. A few days ago, thanks to them for protecting me. I was able to arrive in the capital safely and meet the emperor, thanks to the two of them. ”
Wu Shaoying accepted his company with a smile. Qin Hanzhen didn't mention the matter of traveling with her, and she usually didn't go to the guest room. What's more, Zhao Mo's thoughts were also normal and reasonable, she didn't see Wu Shaoying's eyes, so she naturally didn't have any doubts.
She felt that she could almost go back to Mingyuewu.
Zhao Mo accompanied Wu Shaoying to the guest room. Everything here was pretty much the same as it had been when he left, except that there were new occupants in the few vacant rooms nearby, and there were more servants waiting for him. This area of the guest room has become lively.
Zhao Mo had lived here, and the servants waiting in the guest room basically knew him, and they also knew his current identity. Seeing him coming, everyone saluted him respectfully and called him "Zhao Gongzi". Zhao Mo also nodded politely one by one.
When Wu Shaoying saw this, he knew that Zhao Mo was now in the Chengenhou Mansion, and he could already live with his original identity openly, and he was quite relieved in his heart. Just saw that in the guest room at the other end, someone looked at them with a probe, he was a little unhappy in his heart, pulled Zhao Mo by the hand, and entered the house.
After Zhao Mo saw the two guards beside Wu Shaoying, politely greeted each other, and thanked him, Wu Shaoying sent people to stand outside the door, then closed the door, pulled Zhao Mo to sit down and said: "There are a few words, I want to tell you, don't ask me where I heard it, and don't tell others, it's best not to even say it to the teacher and Sister Sang." ”
Zhao Mo was stunned and said cautiously: "Please speak." ”
Wu Shaoying paused: "Ling Zun...... It may not be possible, but the little boy had better know it. ”
Zhao Mo was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Wu Shaoying to tell him about this. However, he had a premonition about this, and he was not surprised. Thinking that Wu Shaoying has been studying hard in Longfu Temple, he will know this kind of confidential thing...... I'm afraid I heard about it from that Wang Hanlin, right?
Wu Shaoying continued: "The emperor will not say this to anyone. Ling Zun is quite capable of doing things, and the emperor still has a place to use him. It's just that you have to be prepared in your heart, and don't have any thoughts that you shouldn't have. Taking advantage of the fact that Ling Zun is still beautiful, you are studying in front of the teacher again, and the emperor still remembers you...... Let's gain a foothold in the capital first. If you can be independent and don't have to rely on your family, what happens to Ling Zun in the future will not hinder you. I'm afraid he still has a place to rely on you. ”
Zhao Mo smiled and looked up at Wu Shaoying: "If the emperor has already made a decision, why don't you give your father an understanding?" Although he is confused, he has taken on a false name in vain, and he will not be able to succeed in the future, but he is afraid that he will become the one pointed out by Qianfu." ”
Wu Shaoying said: "The emperor didn't say anything, Ling Zun and the Wang family first shouted that everyone knew about it, how can this be blamed on the emperor? The East Palace is still fine, who can give Ling Zun an understanding? How can he give him an understanding? He doesn't want to understand such a thing, can he still expect others to tell him? I'm afraid that he won't believe it? The emperor didn't intend to embarrass him, and had already shown him a clear way, but he didn't seem to have figured it out. ”
Zhao Mo was stunned, and couldn't help but think of what his father Zhao Shuo had mentioned to him that the emperor hoped that he would practice martial arts more and read more military books so that he could understand the military affairs in the Northeast. I'm afraid that the emperor was hinting at his father Zhao Shuo at that time, did he still want to go back to the Liao Wangfu in the future to attack the lord? Therefore, if he knows more about martial affairs, he will lead the troops to defend one side in the future? It's just that after his father heard this, he thought that the emperor didn't like his grandfather Liao Wang and his two uncles, but asked him Zhao Mo to read more military books, so that he could practice martial arts, and in the future, he attacked the lord of the Liao Wangfu, don't be cheap uncles.
Zhao Mo smiled bitterly. How could the father not hear it? Even he, a child who was not yet twelve years old, could hear it!
He looked at Wu Shaoying: "Your Majesty...... I'm afraid that there is also the meaning of letting my father be a shield, right?" "Since the East Palace is not in good health, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are worried about the future heir to the throne, and there is an imperial nephew Zhao Shuo who comes out of the top cylinder, even if he has no name, everyone can feel a little more at ease, at least the courtiers know that the emperor will not have no successor."
But such a shield, if you know your identity in your heart, you are afraid that you can't see yourself clearly, and you have delusions, and when your dream breaks, it is easy to do things that you shouldn't do. Besides, Donggong has been sick, and has always been just sick. Those candidates who are expected to succeed the royal family as the imperial heir, will they wait and wait, and feel impatient, which will be detrimental to the East Palace? Zhao Mo felt that his father should still be a little patient, not so bold, but it was difficult for the Wang family to say...... Is there anything in the world that they can't do?
Wu Shaoying was not worried about this, he told Zhao Mo: "The Queen Mother's birthday is approaching, and the King of Shu has written a letter requesting to bring his son to Beijing to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday." His youngest son is a few years older than you, and I heard that he is smart and clever, both civil and military, and good-looking, and is very favored at home. The king of Shu did not bring the prince to Beijing, but brought this little son here, I am afraid that he also had other thoughts. The Shu Palaces are not quite the same as other palaces, and the Shu Princess is the niece and nephew of the Queen Mother. If the young son of the king of Shu goes to Beijing with his father, he will also fight for the position of the emperor's heir, where will the Wang family dare to act rashly? If they really do something that they shouldn't do, so that the emperor knows, Ling Zun has no chance of winning at all, and he will cheapen the palace of the king of Shu for nothing. Now that the East Palace is still safe, whether it is Ling Zun or the Wang family, I am afraid that they will not be able to do anything to the East Palace, they have to worry, and they should worry about the King of Shu first. ”
In Wu Shaoying's opinion, the father and son of the King of Shu are quite smart. If the young son of the King of Shu is liked by the Queen Mother, and the Empress Dowager Chrysostom stays in the capital, how many times is it better than the children of the clan who took the initiative to send them to the door to ask for succession? They don't need to mention anything about the succession, they only say that they stay in Beijing to fulfill their filial piety, and others can't find any fault.
Acting like this, if the young son of the king of Shu gets his wish fulfilled, he will naturally be happy. If the plan fails, someone else will become the new master of the East Palace, and the young son of the King of Shu will not be embarrassed, after all, he has never mentioned that he wants to succeed to the royal family, and he can return to Shu to be his little prince generously. It's really offensive to advance, and defensible to retreat. Compared with Zhao Shuo and the Wang family, who shouted all over the capital before they skimmed the eight characters, the father and son of the King of Shu acted much more tactfully. It's not like Zhao Shuo, with such momentum at the moment, if it can't be done in the future, how can he gain a foothold in the DPRK?
Zhao Mo really didn't know that the father and son of the King of Shu were going to Beijing, and after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but smile dumbly, and his mood suddenly became better.
He said to Wu Shaoying: "I understand what Mr. means. My uncle and grandfather also advised me before that it is better to rely on no one than on yourself. I knew what I had to do. ”
Wu Shaoying smiled and said, "Then I'll be relieved." ”
Zhao Mo said goodbye and left, Wu Shaoying watched his back go away, and he was in a good mood. Zhao Mo is really a good boy who is smart and sensible, and he only mentioned some things slightly, and he understood that he was smarter than his self-proclaimed capable father, but it was not in vain that the teacher was so enthusiastic about him and helped him again and again.
However, Wu Shaoying was a little puzzled, Senior Brother Wang Fuzhong specially instructed him to tell Zhao Mo these words, what was the purpose? Could it be that Senior Brother Wang had someone else behind him? If it was that nobleman, why did he instruct Zhao Mo like this?
Wu Shaoying was a little dazed.
