Chapter 276: Uncle and Nephew

Zhao Li now has to pretend to be a brother and a harmonious brother to the outside world, and he has to maintain the character of a good uncle in front of Zhao Mo, of course, it is impossible to stop Zhao Mo, so he has to reluctantly send him to Zhao Yanyuan.

Their brothers' courtyards were next to each other, and when they returned to Beijing in the past, they often came and went. It's just that now, how long they have been back in Beijing, how long have they not interacted in private, and even the girls waiting in the two courtyards have tried their best to avoid being seen having private contact with them, which shows how much the relationship between the two brothers has deteriorated.

However, Zhao Li still had to pretend to be a good uncle and a good brother today, and sent Zhao Mo all the way over and asked him to say hello to Zhao Yan. There is no way, Zhao Yan now has the heart to entrap Zhao Mo, so it is impossible to let Zhao Mo and Zhao Yan have the opportunity to meet and talk alone, saving Zhao Yan from saying something that should not be said in front of his nephew and slandering his reputation.

Zhao Yan was a little angry today, and because he was so hungry, he couldn't stand it, and he ate a little porridge and side dishes, so he wanted to sleep hard, and when he heard that Zhao Li came over with Zhao Mo, he suddenly stretched his face.

Zhao Mo didn't see Zhao Yan for a few years, but he continued Fang Cai's attitude in front of his grandfather, step-grandmother and uncle, respectfully and politely, so that people couldn't find the slightest mistake. He didn't have the same exaggerated acting skills as Zhao Li, obviously he didn't have a good relationship with each other, but he still had to pretend to be good, so that people could look at it and fake it. He is polite and polite, a little rusty, but he is extraordinarily sensible and polite. Let Zhao Yan see it in his eyes, he will not be disgusted, but will feel that this nephew was honest when he was a child, and he is just as sincere when he grows up, although he was very annoying in the past, but compared to the two brothers who pretended to be good, it is much more pleasing to the eye.

Zhao Yan and Zhao Li brothers privately didn't know how many eye knives flew each other, Zhao Mo seemed to be completely unaware, put on an innocent and ignorant face, politely followed etiquette, greeted Zhao Yan's leg injury, and said: "I didn't know that the third uncle was injured before, if I had known, I had an excellent bone prescription in my hand, and I sent it to the third uncle as soon as possible, maybe the third uncle's injury would not be so serious." Fortunately, the third uncle's injury didn't last too long, and after I went back, I sent someone to prepare the medicine and send it over. The third uncle can go and ask the doctor to see if the medicine is available? If it is available, he will put the medicine on it early. But if I can alleviate the third uncle's injury a little, it will be my blessing. ”

Zhao Yan's face changed, and he turned his head to look at Zhao Yan after dropping it: "Really?!Where did you get the prescription?!"

Zhao Mo said with a smile: "This is my father's order to go to Jiangnan that year, where I found a very famous miracle doctor, and he personally prescribed the prescription. I thought that every year the caravan of the Wen family also went to Liaodong to collect medicinal materials such as ginseng and deer antler velvet, and sold them to the hospital to dispense medicines, so it was also feasible to collect some other medicines and prepare them into special plasters for bruises and bone wounds, so I asked the divine doctor for a prescription, and I had ordered someone to try to prepare it, and the medicine was very effective, so I asked the Wen family to collect more medicinal materials. If the third uncle doesn't believe it, just go to several big medical halls in the city, such as Huichun Hall, Miaoshou Zhai, Xinglin Hall, etc., to inquire, these few have the finished medicines prepared by the pill medicine workshop under the name of the Wen family, and the name is Continuation of the Tendon and Bone Powder. Whether the effect of the medicine is good or not, the third uncle asked those who have used it, and he will naturally know. ”

Zhao Yan was moved. Although he rarely comes to the capital, he also knows that the reputation of these big medical halls is definitely not in vain. Since even these big medical halls are willing to accept the Wen family's medicine, it can be seen that this medicine is really useful. Even if he can't heal himself, he can make his leg feel a little better. Besides, even if the medicine didn't work much, his injuries wouldn't get worse. Of course, he had to ask the doctor before taking the medicine.

Zhao Yan was obviously moved by Zhao Mo's words, and Zhao Yan saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly said: "Although the reputation of those big medical halls is great, it is impossible to compare with the Tai Hospital. No matter how good the Wen family's medicine is, it is only used by ordinary people, and it may not be suitable for the third brother. In my opinion, the house doctor has always been very good at conditioning the third brother, and the medicinal materials used are all good, and it will not be as good as the medicine made by a merchant of the Wen family, so don't try it rashly, so as not to go wrong, if the medicine is not suitable and deepens the third brother's injury, then how can it be good?"

Zhao Mo smiled and didn't care: "Before the third uncle takes medicine, remember to let the imperial doctor and the house doctor see it first." If they all think it's okay, then you can use it again, otherwise, forget it. The body of the third uncle's daughter is naturally different from that of the people of Limin. ”

Zhao Yan glanced at his brother with an unkind expression, revealing a sneer. Don't think he doesn't know, Zhao Li is just worried that his injury has really improved, and he will have the opportunity to fight for the position of the prince. If the elder brother ignores the feelings of his brother, does he still expect the younger brother to continue to respect his brother? Since Zhao Li prevented him from using the medicine proposed by his nephew, then he really had to give it a try.

Zhao Yan turned his head and smiled at Zhao Mo: "Good nephew, the third uncle has always known that you are sensible. If it weren't a good medicine, you would never persuade the third uncle to use it. In this case, you just have to send the medicine, is it possible that the third uncle will not be able to believe you?"

Zhao Mo agreed with a smile, Zhao Li wanted to stop again, and he was worried that it would make Zhao strange angry, and if Zhao Mo saw that their brothers were not in harmony, it would be a big trouble, so he could only resist the urge to speak, thinking about waiting for the medicine to really be delivered. Anyway, the medicine may not really be in Zhao Yan's hands, and in his hands, it may not be effective.

After offering the medicine, Zhao Mo chatted with Zhao Yan for a while, and then got up to say goodbye. This time, Zhao Yan's attitude towards him was much kinder than when he first came, and while he was stabbing at Zhao R&D, he showed a warm smile to Zhao Mo, and it was hard for him to be busy. Probably to thank his nephew for his respectful and amiable attitude after he was in trouble, Zhao Yan personally sent Zhao Mo to the gate of the Liao Wangfu, and watched him get on the horse and leave before returning to the door.

There was no smile left on Zhao Li's face, and he snorted coldly and said to him: "It's just that the children are not sensible, so they will think that a random mountain field Langzhong outside is a miracle doctor, and the medicine prepared can cure all diseases." The third brother should not really stick it on himself in a daze, in case there is a good one, there is no regret medicine in the world. ”

Zhao Yan sneered: "Second brother, don't coax me, don't you know me? Brother Mo can meet a few miracle doctors in Jiangnan? This is clearly the one who cured the prince! Even the prince's illness, he can cure it, what is my little injury? No matter what, it can't be worse than now!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his eyebrows at his brother again: "I have never seen the second brother be so kind to Brother Mo before, could it be that you are planning to entrap your nephew, so that he can go to the emperor to talk about you for you?" Unless Zhao Shuo marries another wife and has children in the future, and adds another son-in-law, this Liao Wangfu will be passed on to Brother Mo sooner or later. Brother Mo is not a fool, how can he help you seize the throne? You are the son of the world, what good can you do to him? Give up such a big Liaodong and be a little king of Suning County for the rest of your life?!"

Zhao Li was a little embarrassed by his laughter, and forced himself to say: "What do you know? Zhao Shuo can't pass on the title to Brother Mo anyway, what's wrong with my method?" Besides, Zhao Shuo has been mean to Zhao Mo in recent years, and Zhao Mo must have a grudge in his heart. As long as you provoke his anger and let him say a few words about Zhao Shuo in front of the emperor, he doesn't have to say anything for himself, and the position of the prince belongs to him!

Thinking so, Zhao Li only felt that he was far-sighted and not comparable to his junior brother, but with such a clever plan, there was no need to shout everywhere. He glanced at Zhao Yan disdainfully: "Don't dream all day long, delusional that there will be a day when your leg injury will be healed." What is the extent of your injury, the government doctor said it clearly that day, and there are also famous doctors in Liaodong who have diagnosed you, what other medicine can save you? Why bother to worry about your father, queen and mother?"

As soon as he flicked his sleeves, he turned around and walked away, leaving only Zhao Yan staring at his back hatefully, silently thinking in his heart: "If I turn over one day, I will avenge today!"

Zhao Mo didn't know that after the two uncles left the Liao Palace, there was another confrontation. He just walked to the palace according to the original plan, sighed about the injury of the third uncle, discussed a few words of gossip about the marriage of the two uncles with the queen mother, and focused on the rumors that he "heard" from the Liao Wangfu, pointing out that Zhao Li seemed to have the intention of courting the Chen family.

No matter what the emperor thinks about the Liao Palace, the current Liao King is still the respect of the prince, his second son, although he has not yet been knighted, and his status is not low, I heard that Zhao Li intends to marry the daughter of the Chen family as his wife, and even sent letters to the Chen family several times, the queen mother was really taken aback, frowned and asked the palace people around her: "How many daughters does the Chen family have now?"

Immediately, a palace man with a good memory answered her. Chen Liangdi has no unmarried sisters, but there are a few cousins, but the status of her father and brother is not high, but she has a niece and daughter, who is the eldest daughter of Chen Liangdi's brother. She is the daughter of a five-rank official, with a prince and a concubine, but she is barely qualified.

The Queen Mother frowned and said, "That's right, it's just that the generation is wrong." When the clan marries a wife, it is better to act according to the law of etiquette. ”

The royal bride naturally acts in strict accordance with the etiquette law, but the clan may not. The Queen Mother's words actually mean that she does not agree with the marriage. Chen Liangdi is the side concubine of the East Palace, her maiden family is not obvious, the Liao Wangfu has already married the Chen family once in the early years, when the emperor and grandson were still there, this family affair is a bit speculative. Later, the woman died first, and the man broke the contract later, and the two families turned their faces. After a few years, the Liao Wangfu brought up the old things again, and there must be a reason. The queen mother doesn't want to have another incident, so she naturally hopes that the children of the Liao Wangfu will honestly marry the daughter of an ordinary official eunuch. Anyway, Zhao Li squatted in the prison of the Zongren Mansion, and his future is like that, so he doesn't have to spend too much thought on marriage, because if he spends it, it will be in vain, and he won't spoil other people's good daughters.

The Queen Mother expressed her attitude, and someone would naturally pass the news to Chen Liangdi's ears later. Zhao Mo's purpose of entering the palace has been half completed, and he mentioned the leg injury of the third uncle Zhao Yan. Although the Queen Mother didn't like Zhao Yan, she also took pity on him for becoming disabled at a young age, and ordered Zhao Mo to bring a reward to Zhao Yan, which was a few medicinal herbs that were beneficial to the muscles and bones, as well as some silk and playthings. There are not many things, what is rare is decency.

And this dignity is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow to Zhao Yan, who was plotted by his brother, neglected by his biological mother, and whose status in the family plummeted.

When Zhao Mo sent the Queen Mother's reward, together with the continuation of the tendons and bones that he had mentioned before, and a famous imperial doctor in the Tai Hospital who was good at bruising and bone injuries to the Liao Wangfu, Zhao Yan had a rare red eye, took Zhao Mo's hand, and was speechless for a long time.
