492 Affection
"King Chen has been dead for 19 years, the emperor is still haunted, although my brother lives in the forbidden palace, but there are few things outside the palace that can be hidden from my brother, you should know that now I have married the Shen family, the emperor's suspicion of the Hua family, I am afraid that it will eventually affect the Shen family and the Han family, in order to completely remove this trouble, I can only find a way to rehabilitate King Chen."
Zhao Jun looked at the file in his hand, and it took him half a day to take it in his hand, and he looked at it carefully.
Concubine Lu knelt beside the lampstand, turned on the oil lamp, and looked at him with her eyes stupid.
After a while, he raised his head, met this gaze, a trace of warmth floated between his eyebrows, and he was silent, and then turned to Han Ji, who had already regained his composure.
"I don't have Biluochun here, and I don't have a bird's tongue, only boiling well water."
Han Ji paused for a moment, then grinned: "I remember when I was a child, in the East Palace, I also ate the chaff that you specially made for the poor. You said that only when you have tasted that taste will you know that it is not easy to be rich. ”
Zhao Jun smiled slightly, nodded and said, "It's hard for you to remember." ”
The two sat down at both ends of the bed, and Han Ji said: "I still remember the taste, saying that it was chaff, but it was full of crushed chaff, but rice accounted for less than 10%. After that meal, I went back and had a stomachache for three days, but I also realized my brother's intentions. ”
Concubine Lu personally brought boiling water to the pottery bowl, and Zhao Jun stroked the gap on the side of the bowl and said: "But when I think about it now, I know that my original behavior seemed solemn, but it was actually ridiculous." The people's sentiment is not something that can be experienced by one or two meals of chaff. It is not that gratitude can save a country, what they need is to do something. If it's now. I'm going to do something practical to encourage farmers to reduce taxes and incentives for childbearing. ”
"If King Chen is rehabilitated, my brother still has a chance to benefit all the people."
Zhao Jun raised his lips and smiled, took a sip of the cold boiling water, and said, "This water is very sweet." ”
Han Ji tasted it.
Zhao Jun continued: "In your eyes, although I am miserable now, I at least have food and clothing, and I will not die of hunger. However, there are still thousands of ordinary people in the world who do not have enough to eat, eat and cloth. More than 30 years of war have exhausted the vitality of the Central Plains, and it can no longer withstand the toss, if you enter the palace to restore me, I can reply to you bluntly. Not necessarily.
"I, Zhao Jun, have not done anything for the world. On the contrary, I have killed so many lives, and I am a sinner in the world, and I am not worthy to reign in the world again. The emperor is already a burden to me, and even if King Chen is rehabilitated. I was able to regain my freedom. It will still cost a lot of lives. I don't want to kill again because of me. ”
Han Ji took another sip of water. Moaning. said: "Brother reinstatement or not, this can be discussed later." The main purpose of my visit today is to rehabilitate King Chen. In any case, there are too many innocent people involved in the unjust death of King Chen. If it is not stopped, it is an indisputable fact that many more people will die in the future.
"I know that my brother once wrote a note, in which he stated a lot of defenses for King Chen's innocence, as well as collected evidence to defend King Chen, I wonder if those things are still preserved today?"
Zhao Jun would excuse himself as expected, in addition to still having doubts about his sudden appearance, in addition, the Lu family was killed so many people, and several emperors and grandsons died in front of him one after another, not that they could forget jì.
There are also so many courtiers in the East Palace who were beheaded in front of him, not everyone can bear that kind of scene, let alone a person who is already very benevolent. Otherwise, outsiders would not be so firm in believing that he was really crazy, and he would not have sent his heirs out of the palace without telling everyone.
At the moment he does not agree, and he is not in a hurry.
"The evidence has been destroyed, and as for the song, if I have a pen and paper, I can give it to you now." Zhao Jun said.
"I've got all the pen and paper." Han Ji slapped his hands twice, and Tao Xing walked in from outside the door, opened the bag in his hand, and took out a complete color of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. In addition, there are some commonly used wound medicines, cold medicines, as well as camphor rat poison or something, and there are always one or twenty kinds of them.
Han Ji pushed the burden to him and said, "These brothers and sisters-in-law are kept, what do you need to let Yongxin Shiqing pass on the message to me." ”
Zhao Jun saw that all the things that were urgently needed here were available, and he glanced at Han Ji, and did not say anything else, but said: "I said you write, I haven't written for a long time, I'm afraid it will pollute people's eyes." ”
Han Ji knew that he didn't want to give him the handle because of his handwriting, so he secretly praised him for his cautiousness, smiled, and then dipped his pen in ink and said, "Brother, please speak." ”
While they were writing, Concubine Lu had been sitting quietly beside her. She never had much affection on her face, and she didn't even have a verbal exchange with Zhao Jun, but whenever Zhao Jun needed anything, she was able to cooperate in time.
"Although there is no evidence to tell the world, everything that should be written in this scribble is written, and you can choose to copy it in its original language, or change it slightly. In addition, Liu Yaze should still have evidence in his hand, King Chen was the conviction he presided over at the beginning, if you can take Liu Yaze down, King Chen will be able to overturn the case. ”
It took half an hour to write, Zhao Jun said.
Han Ji blew the ink stains on the paper and said, "There is one thing I don't understand, my brother is cautious, why did he choose to directly make a statement instead of choosing a safer way?" ”
Zhao Jun took a sip of water, was silent for a moment, and then said, "That's because, even I didn't expect this letter to be presented." ”
Han Ji frowned, "Why is this?" ”
Zhao Jun said: "I didn't plan to present this piece to the emperor, the content on the paper was just written to prepare for burning in front of the emperor's spirit as a sacrifice." Although I always think that our Zhao family is too contrary to the virtue of King Chen, I would never think of pleading for him in this way. But on that day, when I petitioned for the payment of the border army, the excerpt I handed in was somehow replaced with this one. ”
Han Ji's brows furrowed more and more: "Brother means that someone secretly did something?" ”
"It's for sure." Zhao Jun said, "But the things in the East Palace can only be seen by people other than me, and they can only be inconsequential objects." This is a very important place for me, but it was still stolen, this is naturally the people around me who know me well, but the emperor did not give me time to explain and investigate, so he locked me in the East Palace, and killed all the courtiers around me in front of me. ”
Han Ji fixed his gaze for a moment and said, "Are you really sure that they have all been killed?" ”
"Sure." There seemed to be waves rolling in Zhao Jun's eyes, "Except for the palace people who have nothing to do with me on weekdays, the rest of them have all been executed." ”
Han Ji was silent.
The person who can steal the important objects around Zhao Jun is either his close minister, or the palace people around him, and the emperor can't help but say that he will take him down, and at the same time he doesn't even leave him a chance to explain and make amends, but kills people as if he is killing people to prevent him from finding out the truth, which is too strange.
He said, "Has my brother ever thought about the abnormality in this? ”
The corners of Zhao Jun's lips hooked slightly, and said, "You can also see that something is abnormal, right?" In fact, to put it bluntly, there is nothing abnormal.
"When I was young, I had contact with King Chen's father and son, and I believed in my own judgment, and then in those years, I relied on myself to be the descendant of the Zhao family, the crown prince of the Great Zhou, thinking that I could do something for the Xiao family with my special identity, but I was very wrong, because when a person's heart and mind are all about power, he will not care too much about whether he has children or not.
"Because the heir can be reborn after death, but the emperor is threatened, I am afraid it will be difficult to come back.
"I'm afraid the emperor's desire to abolish me has been there since he knew that I had a bias towards King Chen, but I don't know it yet. I also thought that tigers don't eat their children. Originally, I couldn't figure out these things, but when I came here, I understood everything. All the emperor needs is a successor, not a son, nor family affection.
"Just like in the past, I didn't pay too much attention to my children, reminding them to make progress step by step, asking them about their homework, but when it came to how much relationship I really built, I never did. It wasn't until I saw them die in front of me one by one, and that there was nothing I could do as a father to save their lives, that I realized that I was nothing. ”
When he said this, there was no anger, no hatred, not even self-indulgence, and he was always calm, like an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.
Han Ji lowered his head and groaned, but did not speak.
Over the years, he has been busy with revenge and busy rehabilitating King Chen so that he can recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, more than ten years of life is like a landscape painting made of thick ink, the only color is Shen Yan, he didn't think about overturning the Zhao family and changing the dynasty, but he didn't choose to do it in the end, first, he didn't want to pay many innocent lives for the so many lives that died in Chen Wangfu, and second, he was not sure that he could be a good emperor.
So when he can choose a freer path, he will not consider taking charge of the country himself, and now what Zhao Jun said makes him even more sad, what he said is the truth, you can't expect a person to manage the country well and be a good husband and father at the same time.
But the reality is like that of the Emperor of the Zhao family, which still makes people's hearts chill.
Listening to Zhao Jun's meaning, the person who secretly did the tricks must have been arranged by the emperor himself, and his resolute and resolute actions not only blocked the mouths of the courtiers in the world who wanted to intercede for King Chen and the abolished prince, but also deprived Zhao Jun of the opportunity to redress his grievances.
"Presumably the queen also knows about this matter?" He said.
If the empress didn't know that the emperor wanted to suppress him, she wouldn't have come forward to intercede for him, because if she didn't come forward for Zhao Jun regardless of it, it was likely that even her position would be lost.
And after that, she and the Liu family were able to keep their original grace, I am afraid that they have done something to the emperor's favor in the middle. And according to this, the queen helped King Zheng to ascend the throne, which must be to turn the tables for Zhao Jun in the future with the imperial power in hand. (To be continued......)
