Chapter 119: Selfishness

As soon as the head of the Tu family fainted, Mrs. Tu held him in a panic, and then both husband and wife fell to the ground. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Mrs. Tu pinched the master of the Tu family with her thumb and fingernails, but she didn't see him wake up, and she suddenly panicked even more, and called someone to come while crying.

The husband and wife had confidential things to say before, so naturally they had already dismissed the subordinates and spread them far away, and now it took a lot of effort to call them back. The girls and mothers-in-law entered the door and saw the head of the house fainting, they were also shocked, calling people to call people, pouring tea and pouring tea, and supporting them, they had to first move the head of the house to the warm kang where they could lie flat, and the old steward ordered someone to pick up the post and ask the doctor to come to the head of the house.

As soon as Mrs. Tu heard the word "Imperial Doctor", she paused, and hurriedly called the steward: "Don't ...... Don't ask for a doctor. Our princess has a royal medical officer she brought to the capital from Shu, go to the princess to say something, and ask the medical officer to come and see the master. ”

The steward was taken aback: "Madam?"

I can't understand that they are in charge, and they are the ones who are a favored girl in the family who has a sick illness and has to ask someone to come to the hospital for treatment, let alone the head of the family. The head of the Tu family is old, and it is inevitable that there will be some minor illnesses and pains on weekdays, and he is used to seeing the two doctors in the hospital, and the two doctors are very familiar with his physical condition. The Tu family can rest assured, and the two imperial doctors are also simply. If you change to another doctor, it won't be so convenient.

And the royal medical officer, naturally, can't compare with the imperial doctor. The princess of Shu came from Shu to bring the medical officer, but she was worried about any headache and brain fever on the road, just in case. After entering Beijing, whenever the Shu Wang's family had any illness, they were directly invited by the best imperial doctor in the palace, and the medical officer had to treat the palace guards and servants, or if the Shu Wang's family had any illness that they didn't want outsiders to know, they would let him go. Now that Princess Shu's father is sick, what is such a medical officer to do without inviting a doctor?

Of course, Mrs. Tu was not confused. She hadn't forgotten that her husband fainted because he heard something. Who knows if he will be able to tell the truth when he wakes up? If he invites the imperial doctor to come and hears something that he shouldn't hear, it may leak to the palace at any time. But if the medical officer of the Shu Palace's palace is changed, not to mention anything else, her daughter Princess Shu will be sure enough to shut up.

As for whether her husband's condition will be affected, Mrs. Tu can't care much. Now it is naturally important to save the lives of his family, and the husband is obviously just angry for a while, and he will slowly recuperate in the future, and he will naturally be fine.

The head of the Tu family is indeed just in a hurry. The royal medical officer arrived, and after a little injection, he woke up. When he woke up, he looked at the medical officer, and then at his wife, who looked nervous at the bedside, he closed his eyes weakly and said only one sentence: "I'm fine, you all retreat." ”

The royal medical officer said calmly: "The lower official will prescribe a prescription first, and the boss had better drink a dose every day to recuperate and recuperate, but don't be angry anymore." He stood up respectfully and withdrew, saying nothing superfluous.

In fact, his medical skills are not bad, otherwise he would not have been selected by Princess Shu as an accompanying medical officer, but he is not as famous as the imperial doctor. He was in the Shu Palace, and he had heard all kinds of gossip, but he was an official of the imperial court, not a private slave of the palace, but he was not frightened, and he did his duty, that is. That's the prince's mansion, the emperor is angry, and he won't put the Shu Wang's family to death, not to mention that the princess and her mother's family conspired to do a little thing that is not very disgraceful, and it is just a matter of embarrassing a junior. As long as it does not involve the crime of rebellion, these royal officials will be safe and sound, at most they will be deposed, what is there to worry about?

The medical officer and the maid and the maid all retreated, and the steward's entourage also followed the orders of the head of the Tu family to exit the house. Only the head of the Tu family and Mrs. Tu were left in the house, and at this time, he said quietly: "Are you crazy? Is the princess crazy?

Mrs. Tu immediately burst into tears and choked up: "How come I don't know the seriousness of the matter......? I can't bear to see my daughter and grandson have such a hard time. A few months ago, everything was fine, my grandson had the opportunity to become the heir of the emperor at any time, and we would be able to reunite with our daughter for a long time in the future. Who would have thought that in just ten days, the situation has changed, the king of Shu has been kicked out of the capital, and his daughter will leave in a short time, and I don't know if there is a chance to return to Beijing in this life. I ......"

The head of the Tu family interrupted her: "Then you can't do such a thing!" He endured his anger, "Hasn't Yan'er already coaxed the Queen Mother to change her mind?" He was referring to Zhao Yan, the youngest son of the King of Shu, "As long as the Queen Mother agrees, it is not impossible to ask Yan'er for the title of county king first." With the title, it will be easier for him to stay in Beijing. When the time comes, report the illness to the princess, ask Yan'er to write to the emperor, and allow his mother and concubine to stay in Beijing for more time to heal the illness, how can the emperor not allow it? As long as the mother and son are in peace and do not cause trouble, and the emperor will never be embarrassed by the women and children! At the beginning, the emperor was also very kind to the king of Shu, and it was the king of Shu himself who made mistakes first, so he ended up in the end now. ”

Mrs. Tu bit her lip and said with tears in her eyes: "What if the princess and Yan'er can stay in Beijing? Even if Yan'er can be a county king? Where can I compare to the Ninety-Five Supreme ......?"

"Shut up!" The head of the Tu family interrupted his wife's words again, "I told you a long time ago, don't be delusional anymore, quickly dispel that thought, why are you still unwilling to give up?

Mrs. Tu trembled, tightened her handkerchief, bit her lower lip, and couldn't help but say: "Where can this be regarded as greed? I am also thinking about the Tu family! The master only has the queen mother here, and the Tu family can enjoy the honor in peace." The princess begged for everything, just hoping that you, the father, could say one more good word for his grandson in front of the emperor, but you refused to agree, only saying that everything was decided by the emperor...... Why didn't the lord think about it much, did the princess plan for Yan'er just for herself? Our family is indeed beautiful now, and with the queen mother here, no one dares to underestimate our family. But the Empress Dowager is not the emperor's biological mother! She has never even raised the emperor, but she once helped the emperor when she won the heir. If the emperor can respect the Empress Dowager, will the new monarch be able to do it? Even if they all respect the Empress Dowager, they may not look at our Tu family differently. ”

The head of the Tu family's face changed, and he stared at his wife: "This kind of thing...... You dare to say it!"

Mrs. Tu smiled mockingly: "Who doesn't know these words? Isn't the lord allowed people to say it, and no one is allowed to think about it? Doesn't the lord think so? You only look at the Qin family, what outstanding sons do you have? Cheng Enhou is even more notoriously confused! Just because their family is the queen's maiden family, and the emperor rewarded the marquis with one mouth, isn't it because that Yongjiahou is the prince's own uncle? If the queen mother is the emperor's biological mother, the Tu family will definitely be even more beautiful than it is now!"

Since the current emperor was not born from the belly of the Tu family's daughter, and the Tu family has not been able to produce another daughter to marry into the palace as a concubine and give birth to a prince, now they can only hope that the grandson of the Tu family can ascend to the throne as the new emperor.

Mrs. Tu's thoughts are simple and rude. If it had been six months ago, no one would have thought she was delusional.

The head of the Tu family smiled faintly: "Madame doesn't have to say it so high-soundingly, it's just for selfishness." Just tell me the truth, these ...... But what did the princess tell you?"

Of course, it was Princess Shu who told her. If it weren't for her daughter's expectations, Mrs. Tu would not have the leisure to take care of the royal affairs. The Tu family has a queen mother, and she has a transcendent status in the capital. Without vital interests, why should the Tu family's housewife take risks?

Mrs. Tu was silent and did not answer her husband's words, but the head of the Tu family had already got the answer from her expression.

He closed his eyes and sighed, "How short-sighted!

Mrs. Tu gritted her teeth and said: "Where am I short-sighted, where am I stupid? If it weren't for the extraneous branch of the Liao Wang's prince's festival, if it weren't for the prince's health improving, Yan'er's position as the emperor's heir would have been decided a long time ago!"

The head of the Tu family didn't want to quarrel with her anymore. He barely sat up and tried to get out of bed. Mrs. Tu asked in surprise, "Master, what are you doing?" Lie down quickly. Didn't you just say you're dizzy? Let's rest for a few days. ”

The head of the Tu family sneered: "Where can I still rest? Disaster is coming!" He asked his wife with a gloomy face, "Since Zhen Li is going down for His Royal Highness the Prince, then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is safe and sound?"

Mrs. Tu didn't know anything about this, and in order to prevent the news from leaking, he would not send a message to Beijing until Zhen Li was sure of success, and there was no person to deliver the message. If it weren't for this, Mrs. Tu wouldn't have been slow to get the news of his arrest? and the group of dead soldiers he took away, if they were exposed, it would be enough for the Shu Wangfu to drink a pot.

The head of the Tu family thought to himself, if the prince really had something to do, how could the governor of Zhejiang be so calm and send the song to the capital slowly? Presumably it was just a false alarm. However, because of the importance of the matter, they will use Zhao Mo, the grandson of the Liao King, as a cover to cover up the fact that Zhen Li's real target is the crown prince. Now he has to take advantage of the fact that the truth has not yet spread, and do a good job of dealing with the aftermath as soon as possible, and he must not let the Tu family die unjustly!

He said to his wife very solemnly: "From now on, you are not allowed to go out again, nor are you allowed to leave this room again, let alone send any letters to the Shu Palace! Our Tu family has nearly 1,000 people, and it is impossible for us to give everything we have for a grandson. No matter how much you love your daughter and grandson, you should also think about other flesh and blood. Could it be that only the princess is your own child?!"

Mrs. Tu heard ominous, and hurriedly grabbed his sleeve: "Master, what are you going to do?!"

The head of the Tu family shook off her hand: "Naturally, I will do what I have to do." ”
