Zhao Shuo said in a hurry in his letter, and the person who came to deliver the letter seemed to be in the dust, obviously coming all the way.

According to Zhao Shuo's letter, there are many patients in the family now, his health is not very good, and he is busy with the government affairs of the court, which is really unbearable, and he urgently needs a reliable helper. The eldest son is not young, he has studied for a few years, and he has followed Yongjiahou Qin Bai, traveled around, and has seen some of the world, so he should go home to help his parents. He heard that Zhao Mo was now following the people of Yongjiahou Mansion to the north, and there were many people in the fleet, and he was walking slowly, he was afraid that he would delay his efforts on the road, and he didn't know how long it would take to get to Beijing, but his family urgently needed Zhao Mo to go back, so he urged him to abandon the ship and go ashore and return on horseback by land.

Zhao Shuo also wrote a letter to Qin Bai, thanking Qin Bai for teaching his beloved son in the past two years, and said that he needed to let his son go back to fulfill his filial piety, and I am afraid that he could not continue to accompany Qin Bai to play outside, and asked Qin Bai to be accommodating, Yunyun.

This letter was written a little sourly, as if Zhao Mo followed Qin Bai's side, it was completely for fun, not for the sake of studying and gaining knowledge, and he didn't mention the fact that he forced his son to settle down in the south and was not allowed to return to Beijing. He said that he asked his son to go back to fulfill his filial piety, but it seemed that if Qin Bai did not agree, it would be hindering Zhao Mo's filial piety. Qin Bai can be said to have no grievances against Zhao Shuo, and he has never had a holiday, and now Zhao Shuo said these words as soon as he wrote a letter, which was too aggressive. When Qin Bai read the letter, he couldn't help but sneer and threw the letter away.

Zhao Mo picked up the letter, read it carefully from beginning to end, and then looked at the letter his father gave him, then folded the two letters and put them away carefully.

Qin Hanzhen looked anxious on the side, and hurriedly asked him: "Can you see some traces of spiders in this letter? Is your father really in a hurry to ask you to go back because of this little thing? I think that although he is not very smart, he has always been very polite to my grandfather, and often asks you to say good things for him in front of my grandfather." It can be seen from this that your father is still flattering to my grandfather, so why is it that when he writes a letter, he chokes on his words? We have just returned from Jiangnan, and we have not yet arrived in the capital, so it is impossible to offend him. Is it because he didn't take care of the royal family's room on the long side, so he got angry with us, or did he really encounter something important and lost his senses, so he sprayed indiscriminately?"

Zhao Mo laughed out loud when he heard this, and looked at Qin Hanzhen with bright eyes: "Cousin is really smart! Do you also think that my father's letter is written in a confused way?"

Qin Hanzhen snorted: "Isn't this obvious? For no reason, he can still offend the uncle who has no grievances? Could it be that he is really dignified in front of the emperor and the crown prince now, and he doesn't need to take my grandfather in his eyes?"

Qin Bai glanced at his granddaughter helplessly: "What nonsense?"

Qin Hanzhen pouted and said, "I'm not talking nonsense, this is clearly the truth." ”

Zhao Mo smiled: "If my father really had a good face in front of the emperor and the crown prince, he would not have asked me to go back in such a hurry." I'm afraid that his current situation is not good, so he will write to me regardless of it, and he can't even care about offending my uncle and grandfather. ”

He looked up at Ah Shou, who was standing at the doorway, and ordered, "Take the messenger to the front cabin, I have something to ask him." Ah Shou took the order and left.

The one who came to deliver the letter was Zhao Shuo's little maid Chang'er, who had also been by Zhao Mo's side for a while in the past, and had a good relationship with Zhao Mo. He came to be this messenger, but he could reveal some inside information about Beijing to Zhao Mo.

Zhao Shuo said inclearly in the letter, only saying that there were many patients at home, he was not in good health, and he was busy with official business and couldn't take care of the family, so he needed his son to go back to help.

In fact...... It's not that there are too many patients at home, but that there was an accident, and Xiao Wang, who was not pregnant, had a miscarriage.

Xiao Wang's family is in the palace.

Recently, the situation of the Wang family is not very good, after the second master Wang's funeral is done, the eldest master Wang has been sick in bed, his two eldest sons came back to serve the sick, and the other sons and nephews are still in their original official positions on the grounds of "not forgetting their duties because of selfishness". I don't know if the emperor saw that Master Wang had been cheating, and he was dissatisfied, and there was a book on the Imperial History to refer to the youngest son of Master Wang, because the latter made a small mistake in the Ministry of Labor a few years ago. On weekdays, it seems that this mistake is not big or small, but the boss and colleagues help cover it up, and no one will mention it in the court. But now that the emperor is annoyed by the royal family's room, someone has found out the truth, which is the ready-made handle of the young son of the king. Even if the other party is no longer in the Ministry of Industry, he will not be able to stop Long Yan from being angry as soon as possible, and he will order Yousi to take the lock into Beijing and strictly investigate and deal with it.

And this lawsuit seems to have pressed the start button of something, since then, there have been more royal history in the court, the Wang family is about to collapse, the little Wang family can't sit still, so he wants to use his identity as the princess of the Liao Dynasty to enter the palace to see the queen mother, and want to intercede for his mother's relatives-

Who knew it would be so coincidental? Xiao Wang was in front of the Queen Mother's Palace, and she almost ate a closed door, but she was very sincere, and she must have asked to see the Queen Mother, so she stayed in front of the Cining Palace. Everyone in the palace heard that she was pregnant, and they were afraid that she would have a bad idea, so they could only report to the Queen Mother. The queen mother was very helpless, and it happened that the princess came to accompany her to the small garden of Cining Palace to spread, and the princess asked the queen mother for grace, and Xu Xiaowang entered the palace gate to sit for a while and rest. Anyway, the queen mother has always cared about the affairs of the court, and everything is decided by the emperor. No matter what Xiao Wang's begging, the Queen Mother just ignored it. The princess understood the righteousness so well, and the queen mother was also very pleased, so she agreed to her invitation and called the little Wang family into the palace.

Xiao Wang really began to beg the Queen Mother for mercy with a handful of snot and tears. After hearing a few words, the Queen Mother was noncommittal, and she wanted to hold the hands of the palace people and return to the palace. Unexpectedly, at this time, a swarm of bees flew out of nowhere, which was so terrifying that the palace people couldn't drive them away, so they flew around the queen mother. The queen mother was startled, and the princess hurriedly stepped forward to help drive away, but she was careless and stung several times. The Queen Mother twisted her ankle in a panic, and the palace people couldn't help her, so that she almost fell to the ground, but it was Xiao Wang's flying over and cushioning the Queen Mother to keep the Queen Mother safe. However, Xiao Wang's fell like this, but he was angry, and he immediately turned red. Wang Concubine hurriedly sent the imperial doctor to see the queen mother and her niece, but the queen mother was fine, but Xiao Wang's fetus could not be saved.

Although it is a catastrophe from heaven, Xiao Wang's family can also be regarded as a meritorious person who saved the queen mother. The Queen Mother rewarded her with a lot of things, and specially called Zhao Shuo into the palace to take her home, and repeatedly instructed him to treat his wife better. The Queen Mother did not agree to Xiao Wang's invitation, but she was rescued, this is a shame, I heard that Zhao Shuo intended to divorce his wife, so I would persuade him more. Anyway, the woman who saved the Queen Mother can't be called an abandoned woman of the royal family. Anyway, Zhao Shuo has already had an eldest son, and there is no shortage of concubines, so it is okay to retain the position of the main family of the Xiao Wang family, so that she can enjoy wealth and wealth for the rest of her life.

No matter how many plans Zhao Shuo had in his heart, at this point, he could only make a sincere and worried appearance, and take Xiao Wang's family home to take care of him. A concubine with a poor bloodline is gone, he is not a pity, he only sighs that with the words of the queen mother, he can't mention the word divorce again, even if he wants to secretly marry a famous lady in addition to this wife, he must do it unknowingly, and even hide it from the palace, otherwise he will offend the queen mother. His plan is frustrated and he is in a bad mood, where can he still have the leisure to take care of Xiao Wang's after giving birth?

At this time, the youngest son Zhao Qi was sick again, and Lan Xue was tired enough to take care of the child, and she felt weak when she walked two more steps. Zhao Shuo was busy gathering the power of the Wang family, and on the other hand, he had to take care of his wife and concubine and son, just like a wick burning at both ends, how could he not be tired? Therefore, he hurriedly wrote a letter and summoned his eldest son to go home. If Zhao Mo goes back, at least someone will take care of the affairs of the family, and Zhao Shuo will no longer have to be distracted to take care of his inner family, and he can concentrate on business.

After Chang'er finished talking about what happened, he sighed and persuaded Zhao Mo: "Brother, let's go back early." The house is really a mess now, if the prince is not there, there is not even a person who can call the shots. Although several stewards are valued by the prince, they are not serious masters in the end, and many things are inconvenient to do. Brother went back, how can he be the young master of the house, when the prince is not there, the brother can be in charge of the house. After waiting for a long time, who can still underestimate my brother? Brother is the eldest son of the prince, and the affairs of this mansion should have been handed over to my brother in the future, and no one else can go past you!"

Zhao Mo finished listening, but he just smiled and stared at him carefully.

Chang'er was a little confused, and called him again in confusion: "Brother?"

Zhao Mo smiled: "I know." It's just that my father asked me to stay in Jiangnan for a few more years before, and he was not happy to see me go back to Beijing with Yongjiahou, but now he urged me to go back, which was too sudden. I need to explain the reason to Yongjiahou, and I need to arrange my luggage before I can leave. Go down first and rest, and then I will call you when I have the letter. ”

Chang'er thought that he was just delaying it for another day or two, so he responded with a smile, and reminded him: "Brother, don't hurry up, the prince really needs you to go back early!"

Zhao Mo nodded, and when he saw Ah Shou taking Chang'er down, he immediately sneered.

What does Xiao Wang's miscarriage have to do with him? He has an enmity with this stepmother, and everyone in the capital knows about it. Xiao Wang's family wants to recuperate, and they have their own Wang family to take care of them, Zhao Qi is sick, and his biological mother takes care of him, and Lan Xue's concubine is sick, and there is a girl's mother-in-law. What's the matter with him being a young man here? Could it be that Zhao Shuo still expects him to take care of his vengeful stepmother and father's concubine? It's really ridiculous!

Zhao Mo knew in his heart that Zhao Shuo's situation was really bad. Although Chang'er didn't mention a word, it was obvious that if it weren't for the fact that there was really nothing to do, Zhao Shuo wouldn't be guilty of using these ridiculous reasons to urge him to go back to the capital, I'm afraid he could use the little credit and affection he had accumulated with the prince in Jiangnan to go to the East Palace to intercede for his father, right?
