Chapter 490: Persuasion

Although Zhao Xiu didn't know the secrets of the royal family, he had been with Gao Zhen for a long time, and when he heard him talk about some troubles, he also knew some inside information.

King Quang Binh loved life, and even though he was blind, he never lost heart. He served as a messenger and intervened in local corruption cases, all because he wanted to make a career. He is by no means a person who gives up on himself because of his physical disability. Since he was a teenager, he has been regarded as the heir of the empire, and it was not until he lost his sight that he took the initiative to abdicate, secretly praised his younger brother to the throne, and fought with the rebellious forces. How could such a person refuse if he had the opportunity to regain his light?

Even if he is willing to be idle, the pleasure that the restoration of his eyes can bring him in life and psychology is far from being comparable to the food and clothing. At least he no longer needs to rely on others for everything, he has a certain ability to take care of himself, he can travel freely, he can see what he wants, he can do whatever he wants, he doesn't have to be like now, he can only nest in the house all day long, it is inconvenient to do something if he wants, and he is like a golden bird in a cage.

It stands to reason that once such a king of Guangping learned that someone could remove the residual poison from his body and cure his eye disease, he should not refuse under any circumstances. Even if you don't know if the other party will be able to cure his eyes in the end. As long as Dr. Ye's medical skills are reliable, even if it is to make his body healthy, why should he give up?

If King Guangping was just worried that he was psychologically fragile and could not bear the consequences of the failure of treatment, Zhao Xiu would not believe it anyway. From injury to blindness, from taking the initiative to abdicate to helping his younger brother ascend the throne, King Guangping has always been calm and strong. How could a person who knew from childhood that he would become the king of a country not be able to bear a small blow if he could accept the fate of his fall so calmly?

Zhao Xiu could only guess that King Guangping was probably trying to avoid the emperor's suspicion, right? Because he is the eldest son of the former emperor who is more qualified to inherit the throne than the current emperor, and since the current emperor succeeded to the throne, all kinds of criticisms have occurred from time to time, and the reasons behind this are complicated, and there may be remnants of the anti-party who are at work. But the emperor is a many-hearted. Even if you know that most of those rumors are deliberately done by people with intentions, you still have to be suspicious of your brother, worried that your brother will really be unwilling in his heart and will want to replace him. There is another queen Xie in the harem who is not very clear. She has always looked at the father and son of Guangping unpleasantly, for fear that someone will threaten her son's throne. Even if the emperor is annoyed by the queen, and the wind blows a lot in his ears, how do you know that he has no ideas? King Quang Binh didn't want to have a conflict with his brother, let alone a brother. made the Queen Mother sad, so she always backed down first.

On the question of whether or not to participate in the government, he backed down.

In the matter of the queen's vexatious trouble, he backed down.

In the matter of the queen's intention to renew the strings for him, although he did not back down, he used very tactful means to find another reason to push, instead of directly refusing.

He almost cut off contact with his former subordinates, almost never went out, and rarely invited people to his home. Only with the relatives of the clan and the old friends of the Jiannan Hou Mansion for many years. He lowered his sense of existence in the court, knowing that someone in the court was impeaching him for all kinds of unwarranted things, but he didn't know it. If at the beginning of the emperor's succession, he also served as a counselor in government affairs, but in the last year, he has completely become a rich idler.

After retreating so much, it seems that the emperor is not completely reassured. Because he was not confident, he always felt that if his brother was not blind, he would never have been able to sit on the throne. King Quang Binh probably knew this, so he gave up healing his eyes. Be willing to be a blind person, lest after regaining his sight, the emperor will feel uneasy again, and come up with all kinds of ways to prevent and suppress their father and son. King Quang Binh hoped that his brothers would be safe with each other. I also hope that my son Gao Zhen can be reused by the emperor and show his talents. His decision at this time is actually a painstaking effort to be a father, a brother, and a son.

But Zhao Xiu stood from the perspective of King Guangping and Gao Zhen, but he didn't quite understand the former's decision. The emperor and the king of Guangping are brothers, and the queen mother is still alive and healthy. To say the least, you can live another decade or two. No matter how much suspicion the emperor has in his heart, it is impossible to really do anything to King Guangping, not to mention that King Guangping has no intention of rebelling, so the emperor just thinks about it. Who cares what others think? Maybe he will bring a little trouble to the father and son of King Guangping, but his life will not be in danger. Why did the king of Guangping repeatedly wronged himself in order to make him feel at ease?

She said to Gao Zhen: "No matter what, I have to persuade the prince to let him receive diagnosis and treatment." Whether it can be cured well or not, and what kind of course it can be cured is still unknown, so why bother to cocoon yourself so early? It's just a good way to regulate the body. If the prince's health can improve, the queen mother doesn't have to worry about him all the time, and you, the son, can also be lighter. Just use these reasons to persuade the prince, how about it? ”

Gao Zhen's heart moved, and he felt that these two reasons were indeed good, but he was still a little worried: "My father may not be willing to listen." He knew in his heart what I was trying to accomplish by saying this. If he really made up his mind, there would always be a reason to contradict me. ”

Zhao Xiu said disappreciatively: "This may not be, the prince is still very sensible, could it be that in order to make his younger brother feel at ease, he ignored the queen mother?" I think the prince is a little bit of a bull, he has no intention of power, whether he is blind or blind, he has no intention of competing for a seat with the emperor. Since this is the case, is it important what the emperor thinks? Who can control what others think? The Queen Mother is still there, and the subjects of the world are still watching. The prince didn't do anything, if the emperor casually found a spurious reason to cure the sins of his brother, how would the people of the world think of him? What will the clan think of him? The King of Jinyang and the Marquis of Shanyin are becoming more and more dangerous. I think the emperor should be very confident, the prince asked to abdicate at the beginning, and the throne was also passed to the emperor by the emperor's own decree. If the emperor is smart, he shouldn't suppress you, but he has to be more kind to you. You are the archway he wants to erect, so that you may prove to the people of the world how generous and benevolent he is. ”

Her words were a little bold, if she wasn't alone with Gao Zhen and there was no one around, she would never dare to say it. As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it a little, and glanced at Gao Zhen worriedly, afraid that her words would scare him.

It turned out that Gao Zhen's nerves were not as weak as she thought, he just raised his eyebrows, but between his eyebrows and eyes, he relaxed, and smiled: "Sister Zhao thinks so?" There really makes some sense. What the emperor is doing now. It is true that he also has the intention of treating our father and son very preferentially, but he may not have the sister to think about it thoroughly. As the king of a country, even if he treats us well on the surface, he does something under the table. But it's not that hard. My father was also worried that my future would be in jeopardy. After all, ......," he paused, "the imperial grandmother can't always protect us, if the emperor is forced to be tight, there will be no good fruit to eat in our royal family in the future." ”

Zhao Xiu didn't fail to understand his difficulties, so he thought about it. I mentioned a JianyΓ¬: "Or...... If the prince really refuses to accept Dr. Ye's diagnosis and treatment, you don't have to worry, quietly hide it from the prince and bring Dr. Ye to the capital, right? Let's directly sue the Queen Mother about this matter, and let the Queen Mother open her mouth to persuade the prince, can the prince still refute the Queen Mother's intentions? You can even open your mouth in front of the emperor and ask the emperor to decree and order Dr. Ye to treat the prince. The emperor can't help but let people cure the prince, right? When the prince's eyes are healed, it is also in accordance with the emperor's order, not on his own initiative. I also want to thank the emperor. The emperor has no reason to blame anyone. ”

Gao Zhen's eyes lit up: "Yes, if you can really bring Dr. Ye back to the capital, and ask the imperial grandmother and the emperor to come forward to persuade him, my father will never be able to refuse again." If he is reluctant, the emperor's grandmother will also escort him to receive medical treatment. "And even if the emperor is reluctant in his heart, he has to open Chrysostom.

Zhao Xiu thought about it again and made a decision: "I'll go with you to see the prince and persuade him again." If he still refuses to say yes, then go ahead with the plan. ”

After the king of Quang Binh finished his nap, he washed up a little. I wanted to bask in the sun under the window. Hearing the footsteps, he knew that it was his son who came over with Zhao Xiu, and said with a smile: "You go out for a walk to eat, is it possible to disperse at this time?" ”

Gao Zhen's cheeks flushed slightly. coughed lightly: "Father, Sister Zhao has something to persuade you." "Let's get rid of it.

The king of Guangping was surprised. Zhao Xiu stepped forward and said: "I heard from the prince that he invited a doctor Ye to regulate the body of the prince, but the prince refused. Why would you do that? Not only is the prince worried about your health every day, but our grandparents and grandchildren are also looking forward to your speedy recovery, and the Queen Mother who is far away in Beijing is looking forward to seeing you as healthy as ever. Does the prince have any concerns? Will you insist on going your own way? ”

She got straight to the point, and King Guangping was even more surprised, and said to Gao Zhen with some reproach: "Why did you tell Sister Xiu'er about all this kind of thing?" Gao Zhen was naturally unconvinced: "My son is worried about this day and night, and Sister Zhao asked me after finding out, if you have the heart to share my worries, what does it matter?" ”

King Guangping sighed, and could only say to Zhao Xiu: "It's not that I am bent on going my own way, I have seen countless doctors in the past few years, and there are a group of people up and down the Tai Hospital, and none of them have never given me a pulse, and some of them say that it can be treated, but the result is not like this?" If it's hopeless, why bother again? It is a waste of manpower and material resources, and it may delay serious work. ”

Zhao Xiu stepped forward: "You haven't tried it yet, how do you know it's not good?" You also said that you have seen countless famous doctors, but none of them can remove the residual poison from your body. I don't know what this Dr. Ye's medical skills are, but since he is sure, why not let him give it a try? It's just for you to condition your body. However, if your body improves, you will be able to experience less discomfort in your daily life. The Empress Dowager of Beijing...... If you know it with the emperor, you can feel at ease. As for the fear of delaying business, in fact, which official has not been sick? If you are sick, you can ask a doctor to treat you, and I haven't heard of anyone delaying your business. Acupuncture doesn't take much time to take medicine, and you don't have to worry about anything else. If you are really concerned about the corruption case, it is the same if the case is closed. Or simply leave the matter to the prince brother, you can enjoy your own blessings. ”

Gao Zhen immediately echoed a few words cooperatively.

King Guangping was dumbfounded and smiled helplessly: "You two children are really ......"

Zhao Xiu took a step forward and said earnestly: "Lord Wang, you can agree." We don't know what Dr. Ye is capable of. If he can really heal your eyes, won't you be at ease? Reading books may hurt your eyes, but it is not a problem to travel in the mountains and rivers, and you can also watch songs and dances, and talk about poetry and essays with others. Now that you have nothing to do, don't you want to live a few years of leisurely life and take a look at this great river and mountain? ”

She saw King Guangping's eyebrows and moved slightly. (To be continued.) )
