Chapter 32: Ruthless
The new emperor ascended the throne and celebrated the whole world. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Emperor Mingde was called Emperor Taishang, and Zhao Yi took the year name Kangping, called Emperor Kangping, and sealed Qiutong as the queen, the four concubines were from the Xie family, the Yang family, the Wang family, and the Yan family, and there were no concubines and imperial concubines.
The concubines below the concubine level are all from the major forces, and they are evenly distributed.
Needless to say, the harem will usher in another reshuffle, but these have nothing to do with Zhao Shu, as long as Qiu Tong doesn't make mistakes, she will naturally always be on her side, after all, she can still distinguish between a wife and a concubine.
Zhao Yi divided his women, and then promoted a group of officials, among which Liu Huan was transferred back to the capital, followed by Zheng Hongsheng.
The court also shuffled again, Zhao Bi and King Jing's people were all cleared, leaving only some newcomers and people from the previous new party, Huiwang Guan Heng and others were all dismissed.
He made a big move, and it stands to reason that some people will have opinions about such a drastic move, but Zhao Yi pardoned the vassals of the vassal kings and received the support of many local families, so the court situation was not chaotic.
On this day of universal celebration, Zhao Shu went to the prison after dressing up.
Although Zhao Bi was ordered to die, the time has not yet come, he is alive.
Zhao Bi didn't expect that in the last stage of his life, the first person to come to see him was Zhao Shu, in fact, he never understood why Zhao Shu wanted to oppose him everywhere.
The prison on TV is dirty and messy, but Dayong's prison is different, at least Zhao Bi's room is very clean, there are tables and chairs, melons and fruits, wine, and books to pass the time when you are bored.
"The fourth brother is having a good life." Zhao Shu ordered someone to open the cell, and she walked in and sat on a chair.
Zhao Bi did not lose his temper, but looked at Zhao Shu inquiringly, and then rolled over from the small bed and sat opposite her.
"I didn't expect Sister Jun to come to see me." He said lightly.
Zhao Shu motioned to Xiao Guozi to pour tea, "Fourth brother must be curious to know why I came." ”
"Yes, I really want to know, Sister Ajun, I really don't understand, I have no grievances with you, why do you want to target me?" He felt wronged when he thought about it.
Zhao Shu chuckled, and then asked him rhetorically, "Fourth brother thinks the imperial concubine has a reason to abandon you?" ”
"You!" Zhao Bi was asked, and his face changed suddenly.
Zhao Shu recalled what happened to Zhao Bi in the past few years since he was reborn, and felt that he was also quite aggrieved, he couldn't compare with the previous life at all, Yide in the previous life did not come back, he had no enemies at all, and Zhao Yi was not an opponent at all.
But in this life, he doesn't seem to have really succeeded.
It's not so much that he hasn't succeeded, it's that he's not taken seriously.
In the previous life, Emperor Mingde and the Queen Mother also died during this period, Yide has no one to hate, so he is naturally willing to praise him as the emperor, and even Ning Meiren ascended to heaven.
No, even the Gu family has ascended to heaven.
But in this life, Emperor Mingde became the emperor, and the queen mother was still alive, and Wei Tingsi did not wash the vassal kings with blood, and the smell of blood was much lighter.
Today is much more peaceful than this time in the previous life, how can the war not be ruined, but many vassal kings have surrendered, saving many families from being ruined.
The most important thing is that Lin Xiuxue and others are still struggling at the bottom, and they have not risen as much as in their previous lives.
"The fourth brother actually didn't think that he would be abandoned." Zhao Shu asked.
Zhao Bi looked at her and didn't answer, as if he wanted to see through her person, and then frowned, "Ajun, I once had a dream, do you want to hear it?" ”
"I'm here today to listen to the fourth brother, just say it."
"I dreamed that you were married and had a daughter." His brow furrowed and he was a little entangled, hoping that the dream was real, but he felt that it was impossible.
It's like an atheist who wants a bodhisattva to save the suffering.
Zhao Shu's face remained unchanged, in fact, she twitched in her heart, she looked down at the teacup on the table, the tea in the cup was a little yellow, and the tea color was not good.
"But you're dead, and the Yongwang Mansion is gone, Ah Jun, do you think this is destined in the dark?" Zhao Bi approached Zhao Shu as if asking.
Zhao Shu smiled faintly, "The fourth brother is really good at dreaming, and the dreams are all reversed, which shows that I am alive and well, and the Yongwang Mansion is also very good, has the fourth brother dreamed of anything about himself?" ”
"Are dreams all reversed? How do I think it's true. He was unwilling and reluctant to agree with Zhao Shu's views.
"What if not? Did the fourth brother still think that dreams could become reality? A dream is a dream, fourth brother, you will never have a chance to realize it. ”
When he dreamed, Zhao Bi didn't take it seriously, but after listening to Zhao Shu at this time, a strong unwillingness rose in his heart for some reason, as if he should be the one who ascended the throne, and Zhao Yi and Zhao Shu should die.
The feeling grew stronger and stronger, so intense that he almost choked, it was so real.
However, it was clear that it was a dream, but the feeling of gaining and losing soaked into his bone marrow as if it were real, making him collapse several times.
In fact, Zhao Shu wanted to tell him that everything was true, I was afraid that it would be more painful for him then, but just in case, she decided to keep this secret in the depths of her heart.
"Sister Ajun, you haven't told me why you are targeting me everywhere." He asked.
Zhao Shu stood up, "Because you are not suitable to be an emperor." ”
"I don't believe it, if I had a better relationship with you than Zhao Yi and you at the beginning, would you help me or not?" Zhao Bi was a little anxious, he lost, although he was unwilling, but he couldn't lose in vain.
Zhao Shu shook her head, "No, I looked down on your background before, but then I abandoned the concept of origin and looked down on you as a person, when you designed Sun Yun and messed with Hao Shumei, you had already lost." ”
"I thought you thought that Hao Shumei and Sun Jiao deserved it, after all, I didn't succeed in Sun Yun." Speaking of the two ladies, he is still quite proud, at least Zhao Yi has lost Hao Shumei.
Speaking of which, he is still more successful than Zhao Yi.
Zhao Shu squinted, he actually felt that Hao Shumei and Sun Jiao deserved it, they were really unkind, aside from everything else, emotionally, these two women were victims, but other factors added together, she really deserved it.
Good men are all equally good, but scumbags are out of the realm.
"I don't think they deserve it, they just met you blindly, if they hadn't met you, they would have lived a hundred times better than now, Sun Jiao wouldn't die, do you know why you failed? It's because it's too thin and cool. ”
Zhao Shu said that she threw off her sleeves and left the cell, and when she ran out of the prison, she found that she had forgotten the purpose of coming to the prison, and she came to ask where Yide might go.
Just as he was about to go back and ask again, Xiao Guozi said softly: "County Lord, someone is here." ”
There was a long staircase in front of the prison door, and someone was climbing at this time, and he was wrapped in a hooded cloak, and his face could not be seen clearly, but his body was somewhat familiar.
"County Lord, it seems to be Zhen Sevenfold." Xiao Guo Zidao.
Zhao Shu moved her skirt and returned to the prison, and the prison guards knew her, so they didn't dare to stop her, so they let her enter the place where she rested on weekdays.
Zhen Qizhong came alone, he was very generous, his shot was gold, he held a certain amount of gold, where did the jailer not let him go?
After releasing Zhen Qizhong, the jailer immediately handed over the gold with it, "County Lord, the rules are like this, it's not good to take it." ”
The eight-character yamen is open to the south, and there is no reason to come in without money, this is the rule, take the money to the prison, there is no one who does not let it go in to visit the prison, this is the unspoken rule.
Although Zhao Shu couldn't get used to these unspoken rules, she didn't say anything, if the water was clear, there would be no fish, and there would be no disciples when the water was clear, and the jailers were also old and young, and they didn't take the silver, "Guarding outside, someone comes to remember to remind me." ”
With that, she walked back the way she came.
After walking a short distance, a slight voice was heard near Zhao Bi's cell, "Your Highness, have they tortured you?" ”
It was Zhen Qizhong's voice, and his voice was a little trembling, very worried and excited.
"It's okay, why don't you go? You go as fast as you go, the farther you go, the better. Zhao Bi was also very excited, and he disagreed with Zhen Qizhong.
Perhaps, in his heart, he only loves Zhen Qizhong, so he said that Hao Shumei and Sun Jiao deserve it.
"Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely save you, I will!" Zhen Qizhong said solemnly.
"This is the dungeon, do you know how many Shadow Division and Imperial Guards there are? Go back, go away, go wherever you want, just don't stay in the capital. In Zhao Bi's tone, there was reluctance and helplessness, and more powerlessness and emotion.
"Zhao Yi ascended the throne, the palace is very busy now, so I dare to come over." Zhen Qizhong said angrily, "Your Highness, the mansion has been sealed. ”
"Money is something outside the body, you go quickly, I just want you to be good." I can hear that Zhao Bi said seriously and sincerely, without perfunctory.
Zhen Qizhong didn't speak, and after a while, he heard Zhao Bi say, "Don't cry." He choked up.
This time, I didn't hear a voice for a long time, Zhao Shu wanted to stretch out her head to look, when she was just ready, she heard Zhen Qizhong say: "I won't go anywhere, without you, I don't want to go anywhere, where there is you, home is home, without you, I feel like wandering wherever I go, you know, I don't like wandering." ”
"You're here, I'll live, Xiao Qi, you have to live well for me." I can't see my face, but I can hear Zhao Bi's deep feelings.
If Hao Shumei could get such a sentence from Zhao Bi, she might not go to Taihe Palace.
"You wait for me, wait for me to save you, let's get out of this place and go to a place where no one knows us, okay?" The seven folds of the fur are almost pleading, about the male ploughing and the female weaving...... No, it should be the days of planting beans under the south mountain that he wants.
In her previous life, it seemed that Zhen Qizhong had never appeared, or she might have been, but at that time, her rank was Lin Xiuxue and the like, so naturally she didn't know much.
Zhao Bi didn't reply, but he nodded, but Zhao Shu couldn't see it.
If there is no reply, it is to keep a way out, in fact, it is impossible to make him give up the throne.
Zhen Qiju was ecstatic, and originally wanted to say something, but the jailer came, "It's time, let's go." ”
"Wait for me." The final path of the sevenfold war.
Zhao Shu walked out of the prison first, and then stopped on the way to the prison to wait for the sevenfold.
Zhen Qizhong was startled when he saw Zhao Shu, he pretended to be calm, but the hand that pulled down the brim of his hat betrayed him, and when he saw Zhao Shu, he was so nervous that he couldn't even walk steadily.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Zhao Shu asked bluntly.
Yukusa died early, and she didn't say a lot of things she wanted to know, and Zhen Qiju had a lot of contact with her, so she must know a lot of secrets that were not passed on.
"The county lord has sharp eyes, and he can recognize it, why? Didn't the county lord call for someone to arrest me? Zhen Qizhong adjusted her mind and quickly calmed down.
is worthy of the man Zhao Bi likes, Zhao Shu secretly praised, "What's the use of catching you, it's not a credit, let me ask you, what else is there to hide from me." ”
"The county lord thinks I'll say?" He replied to Zhao Shu with a cold face.
Zhao Shu turned around him twice unhurriedly, "Can't speak?" After my emperor's brother ascended the throne, he was about to kill Zhao Bi, don't you want to save him? ”
"Will you let him go?" Zhen Qizhong looked at Zhao Shu excitedly, and wanted to reach out to pull Zhao Shu's hand, but was blocked by Xiao Guozi.
Zhao Shu didn't speak, just smiled, as if there was infinite possibility, but as if there was no possibility, Zhen Qizhong was in turmoil at the moment, "You, you...... If you are really willing to let him go, I am willing to answer you on the poster of the sword mountain and the fire. ”
"What do I want you to do on the sword mountain and down the sea of fire, I just need you to answer my questions, and the rest depends on my mood." Zhao Shu walked forward slowly with her hands behind her back.
Zhen Qizhong followed excitedly, even if he didn't believe that Zhao Shuken was willing to let go, but his feelings did not allow him to let go of any opportunity.
"What do you want to know? I'll tell you all. ”
Zhao Shu glanced back at him and found that his face was full of anxiety, his face was much worse than before, he was already weak, but now he looked even more haggard.
"Don't worry, find a place to sit first." Zhao Shu went straight to Yipinju all the way.
When she came to Yipinju, she asked for a private room, ordered a pot of tea, she sat on the chair slowly, the window was open, and a few clusters of begonias outside were just right.
"Where does the county lord want to start listening?" The Seven Paths.
Zhao Shu was skeptical that he would compromise so quickly, but she had the basic ability to distinguish, and she was not afraid of him playing tricks.
"Sit down, starting from the day you met Yukusa."
Zhen Qizhong is not pretentious, sat down according to his words, and then began to recall, in fact, he looks very distinctive, although he is not beautiful, but there is a temperament that makes people can't help but feel distressed.
Look at him quietly, if the concentration is not good, he will pity the heart of the jade, and if he is a stronger person, it is easy to get a sense of success in his conquest.
"My grandfather was a musician in the previous dynasty, Emperor Dao was mediocre, Taizu raised troops into Beijing, my grandfather left the capital with his family, and later the princes in many places did not accept Taizu, and they set themselves up as kings, my grandfather took the clansmen to Jiangnan as soon as they arrived, and the Lu clan in Jiangnan recruited troops and bought horses......"
"My grandfather was also recruited into the Lu family's army, because my grandfather was literate, and he went out of the palace, he had seen the art of war, and was appointed as one of the army, Taizu waved his troops south, and the Lu family's army collapsed.
Hearing this, Zhao Shu admired Taizu very much, only killed his subordinates, not the mastermind, but he was afraid that the opposition forces would also be afraid.
"My grandfather was also one of them, and my father was my grandfather's concubine, raised in the outer room, and was not recorded in the family tree, so he escaped."
"But many officials searched tightly in order to invite merit, and my father was still found, but fortunately, a girl from the Lu family saved my father." He spoke slowly, although he had not experienced that period of history, but just listening to his fathers talk about it, his heart was as cold as ice.
It turned out that Taizu was so ruthless, so many Lu family ministers were all punished by the nine clans, and Jiangnan was afraid that a third of the people would die. (To be continued.) )
