Chapter 180: Father and Son

Zhao Xuan returned to the Zhao Mansion with a belly full of fire that day, and only then did he go back, and he didn't have time to change his clothes, so he angrily went to the old lady Qin and said: "I originally thought that no matter how good my brother-in-law was, it would be impossible to ignore the feelings of flesh and blood, but the result was good! I, who was an uncle, persuaded him for a long time, but he was stunned and insisted that Mizhen had Huan Gong behind him, and he didn't need to care about anything! So is Mizhen the son of Huan Gong or his son!!? !

Old Madam Qin said without raising her head: "The Heavenly Family has no family affection! When I said earlier that I was going to prepare a way back for us, didn't you still think too much? Now do you know my hard work?"

"Mother, your hard-working child has known for a long time. Zhao Yu said absentmindedly perfunctorily, his eyebrows tightened, "Count the days, Ruru has already invaded the border, and the situation in the western Xinjiang is so erosive, how can it be possible to stop Ruru, who has defeated and retreated the Northern Xinjiang army?!

After a deep groan, Zhao Yu said, "Mother, do you think this will be done? Tomorrow, the child will ask Ji to visit his sister, and mention this matter to her by the way?"

"Don't come up with such bad ideas!" Old Madam Qin immediately objected, "Not to mention that the relationship between your sister and your brother-in-law is respectful enough, she has been trying to compensate Mizhen for the past two years, if she knows about this, it would be strange if she didn't work hard with your brother-in-law! At this moment, Concubine Meng is about to give birth, and the situation between the DPRK and China is about to erupt! Aren't you deliberately adding to the chaos!"

Moreover, "Do you think that your brother-in-law will not know that you are doing such a thing? Mi Zhen is also his son, and not your son! You are in such a hurry to make trouble for him, isn't this deliberately making him hate our family!"

Zhao Yu said angrily: "Since my brother-in-law is so cold and cold, I said that our family might as well support Mizhen!

"You're just angry. "Old Madam Qin has always been partial to Rong Sleeping Crane among the father and son of King Gaomi, but when she heard the words at this moment, she shook her head and said, "There is a reason why he is not close to Mizhen, and he doesn't even care about Mizhen's life or death." You see that he is the son of the world, why is he digging out his heart and lungs, right?"

"Isn't the prince your nephew?"

"Mother, didn't you always want to give the peach to Mizhen before?" Zhao Xuan asked confusedly, "Now the child has figured it out, why did you pour cold water again?"

Old Madam Qin said: "I won't pour cold water on you, you decided to support Mizhen as soon as your brain is hot at this moment, and it will disappear in two days?"

When Zhao Xuan heard this, he smiled and said, "Doesn't the child think that brother-in-law is too much this time?"

His face was gloomy for a moment, "Don't say anything else, just say that he knows what his sister has been tossing for Mizhen all these years, and he still has to turn a deaf ear to Mizhen's life and death at this time, isn't this a deliberate intention not to take his sister's life seriously?!"

After Rong Sleeping Crane disappeared, Princess Gaomi directly lost half of her life, and now that Rong Sleeping Crane is back, the princess has improved, if she hears the bad news of this son again, can she still live?

"You have the idea of being a brother-in-law and an uncle. Old Madam Qin said calmly, "However, I don't have many heirs under my knees, and Shan'er and their brothers are still young, so they are not old enough to be on their own." Now Shi'er is far away in northern Xinjiang, and we can only discuss when we encounter problems, but you can't use your feelings too much!"

Zhao Xuan bowed his head to lead the training, pondered for a while, and said: "However, even if you don't think from the standpoint of being a brother-in-law and an uncle, what kind of smart thing is it for your brother-in-law to let Mizhen fend for herself in the western Xinjiang at this time? Don't care how much the brother-in-law is not close to Mizhen and doesn't care about Mizhen's life or death, the people of the world don't know this! They will only see the cold-blooded brother-in-law who doesn't care about his own son-in-law! When the time comes, how can the Meng family not take the opportunity to make a big deal and ruin the reputation of the brother-in-law?"

"It's the people below, how can you not feel cold when you hear this?"

"The most important thing is that my brother-in-law doesn't like Mizhen, and Mizhen also doesn't have a deep father-son friendship with her brother-in-law. Mi Zhen is like this, Mi Zhen's daughter-in-law, Mi Zhen's daughter-in-law's maiden family and Mi Zhen's subordinates, naturally it will not be affected!"

"Now my brother-in-law doesn't care about Mizhen's life or death, if Mizhen survives by herself, how can she not resent her brother-in-law?" "He just escaped alone, and he can't afford to start a stove on his own, with his scheming, he wants to make trouble for his brother-in-law, and I'm afraid that he can't do it?"

"Even if he didn't survive and had three longs and two shorts in Western Xinjiang, his Yue's family and subordinates would turn to the Meng family in a fit of anger?"

"That's what you should say. Old Madam Qin bowed her head and said, "However, you are only thinking from the standpoint of thinking about your brother-in-law, and you still don't think about our Zhao family." ”

Zhao Xuan hung his head and said dejectedly: "Mother, when is this, are you still testing me?

Old Madam Qin scolded unhappily: "Look at your little bit of talent! When you were young, how did I teach you? Every time there is a big event, there is calmness! Don't say that you are better than your eldest brother, even a midnight girl is better than you! Don't say that what she did at the beginning is appalling, she can't do something like that if she is not calm!"

Seeing that Zhao Xuan admitted his mistake with a wry smile, the old lady continued, "Your brother-in-law keeps saying that he doesn't have to care about Mizhen's life or death, all because Mizhen is standing behind Huan Guanlan."

"It's just speculation!" Zhao Xuan hurriedly interrupted, "Is it true or not?"

"Groundless wind may not be without a cause!" Old Madam Qin said hesitantly, "Mi Zhen is young, both in writing and acting is very old, this is not something that ordinary people can teach!

Zhao Yu said: "Although the father and son of the Sheng family look very good in the eyes of ordinary people, they really can't teach Mizhen like this. But mother, have you forgotten? The outside world doesn't know, but we do know, that is, Mi Zhen originally grew up on Tortoiseshell Island! So, as the saying goes, the children of poor families are in charge early, and it is not impossible for him to have that kind of experience, and to behave more transparently and skillfully than ordinary young people of this age?"

"You're really stupid!" Old Madam Qin sneered, "The children of poor families may be able to take charge of the house early, but how can the children of poor families have such insight and vision as him in a place like Tortoiseshell Island, which is isolated from the mainland?!"

"Let's take a look at his articles on the list, which one is not from a lofty position, revealing lofty ambitions and good insights between the lines?"

"I don't know that he was actually not raised by the Sheng family, thinking that the old lady Sheng was proud to protect the family and defend the country, Sheng Lanci also has the reputation of a talented man, and the Sheng family is rich, it is reasonable for you to be dizzy if you only want to be a secret virgin, thinking that the Sheng family can train a talent like Mizhen in just three or two years?!"

The old lady said coldly, "If the Sheng family really has such a ability, their family's bloodline will not even be able to get a show until now?!"

"Now you give me a good idea, behind Mizhen, is there anyone or not?!"

Zhao Xuan said cautiously: "Isn't this over? If there is really that one standing behind Mi Zhen, with his handwriting, he will definitely be able to protect Mi Zhen, so it doesn't matter if Mi Zhen's relationship with him is getting closer and closer, the key is what Mi Zhen will think of us who are blood relatives in the future?"

"However, if there is really that one standing behind Mi Zhen, wouldn't it be a good thing for us?" Old Madam Qin hated that iron could not become steel, "The lesson of the Meng Clan, do you think he will do it again?!"

Zhao Xuan was stunned, then he came to his senses and said, "Mother, do you think that if Mi Zhen is standing behind Mi Zhen, then we will design Tao Cheng to replace Mi Zhen's daughter-in-law, and then it will be targeted by Huan Gong out of the consideration of preventing our family from becoming the second Meng clan?"

He was a little relieved, "Then don't let Tao Cheng and Mizhen have anything to do! The child didn't approve of this decision earlier, and then you see that the eldest brother also objected." Now it is possible to become a thorn in the side of Duke Huan, what do you say we are still doing such a sin?"

Old Madam Qin didn't scold him this time, she frowned and said: "How can I be willing to fight with that person? Isn't this just the right time to test the truth of Mizhen and verify whether that person is still alive, anyway, your brother-in-law took the lead in opposing the immediate rush to the western frontier, and his own son-in-law is not distressed, why should we rush ahead and charge?" "However, Mizhen" Zhao Xuan opened his mouth to object, but was glanced at by Old Madam Qin: "The decision made by his biological father, what can you do as a subordinate?" And just let you leave this matter alone for the time being, and it's not that you really don't stretch out your hand at all! Hurry up, write a letter to your eldest brother, and ask him to pay close attention to the war in the western Xinjiang.

"If you turn around like this, Mizhen wants to hate, and your brother-in-law is in front of you, and you can't complain much about our family!"

Zhao Xuan couldn't help but laugh and said: "That kid has a deep mind! Pretending to be like that, where can he deceive him?"

But after all, Zhao Shi was originally famous for his long-sleeved dancing, and outsiders could hate him for his liver, not to mention his nephew? !

He then retired from Mrs. Qin and went to the study to write a letter.

At this time, in the Gaomi Palace, not far from Zhao's Mansion, there was also a study, and the atmosphere was stiffening.

King Gaomi, who almost wanted to vomit three liters of blood, looked at Shizi who was pale but still insisted on kneeling, and couldn't wait to go up and slap him awake: "Who is Lone working so hard for?!Ahhh

"Father, the child is really not the material for the son of the world!" Rong Qingchu's injury had not healed, but he was able to get up, and the dispute just now had made him a little difficult, and he knelt for a long time at this time, and he showed a crumbling momentum, but he still insisted and said, "In the past, the child followed you and helped to fight, and he already felt that he was stupid. When I went out on an errand this time, I saw the turmoil at sea, and I felt more and more that I was stupid and reckless, and I couldn't afford your foundation at all! If it had been a child who had been stranded at sea, the child would have died a long time ago!"

"The child can't imagine how the third brother survived at that time, and even climbed up step by step?!"

"Now that Concubine Meng is about to give birth, there are soldiers in northern Xinjiang and western Xinjiang, and the court is in a state of external and internal troubles.

Rong Qingshu stepped forward on his knees as he spoke, grabbed King Gaomi's sleeve, and said earnestly, "So I beg my father to stop testing the third brother, and immediately ask the eldest uncle to send troops to rescue the western frontier, so as not to put the third brother and the third brother and sister in a dangerous situation!!"

Looking at the pleading appearance of the eldest son, King Gaomi's face sank like water, and after a while, he said lightly: "Qingjiu, I only ask you one sentence for my father: If you want to choose between your father and Mizhen, who do you choose?"

Rong Qingchu was stunned, tears fell, and said: "Father, my relatives have blood and bones, why is this so?! The child would rather be crushed now, and have no chance to see this scene!"

"Father is not forcing you!" King Gaomi closed his eyes, a hint of helplessness mixed with exhaustion, "But think about the old sea lord of the Gongsun clan!!"

Rong Qingchu was dazed for a moment, suddenly thought of something, and his pupils suddenly contracted: "Father, what do you mean?!"

"Who knows something?" King Gaomi opened his eyes, stared at the candle flame not far away, and said quietly, "Your mother is not in good health, since this matter has not been spread and she is worried, don't tell her anything first, understand?"

Rong Qingchu continued to kneel for a while at a loss, before he staggered up and said in a low voice, "Yes!"

The moment he turned his head, King Gaomi saw water droplets on his eldest son's cheeks thrown onto the bookcase in front of him, but he only sighed and said tiredly: "Your injury is not healed yet, go back to Cuihuang Courtyard and rest well, and the concubine you brought back from the sea is not very peaceful, don't get used to it! In the end, the princess is your main room, even if the princess is virtuous and generous, but this is not the reason why you have indulged the concubine again and again to lose her face!

Rong Qingzui, who had already walked to the door, stopped, turned around, bowed and said, "Yes!"

After standing for a while, he saw that King Gaomi had taken down a book and began to read it, and knew that he had no other instructions, so he turned around and left.

Zhao Xuan returned to the Zhao Mansion with a belly full of fire that day, and only then did he go back, and he didn't have time to change his clothes, so he angrily went to the old lady Qin and said: "I originally thought that no matter how good my brother-in-law was, it would be impossible to ignore the feelings of flesh and blood, but the result was good!
