Chapter 612: Waves
As early as the night of the Lantern Festival, after Gao Zhen returned to the palace, King Guangping heard his son say that the emperor might have an eye injury, and his first reaction was to get up and go out, planning to go into the palace overnight to visit his younger brother and confirm that he was okay.
But Gao Zhen stopped him: "Father is worried about the emperor, but who knows what the emperor thinks?" The queen stabbed him and angered the imperial grandmother, if the emperor is a sensible person, he should immediately announce that you will enter the palace, if nothing else, and let you say hello to the imperial grandmother, which is also the meaning of appeasing the imperial grandmother. But the emperor not only did not announce that you entered the palace, but also refused to see his son, in order to send his son out, he even asked Sister Zhao to coax me, which shows that he is bent on hiding from our father and son. For this reason, he did not even allow me to go to see the imperial grandmother. What is he doing this for? Don't you doubt your father in your heart? You are sincere, you care about his injury, but you don't know that he won't think crookedly, think that you are a traitor in your heart, and you are about to take his throne? β
King Guangping was stunned on the spot when he heard this, and was silent for a long time before he sighed: "No matter what he thinks in his heart, it's always my younger brother." He is wounded, and he doesn't know what to do, how can I not be worried? Besides, your imperial grandmother should also ask to see if her old man is really okay. β
Gao Zhen said: "According to Sister Zhao, the imperial grandmother is fine, at most she is worried in her heart. Sister Zhao will not listen to the emperor's words to coax her son, and she also hinted at me during the conversation, telling me to understand the truth of the matter. Since she said that the imperial grandmother is fine, it must be okay. There are her, the girl of the Li family, and the princess of Fenyang Wang Shishi in front of the imperial grandmother. The Imperial Grandmother would not have been too worried. It's just that this matter can't be hidden for a few days, and the emperor was confused for a while, so he wanted to cover his ears and steal the bell. But how can everyone else be a fool? If you can hide it from the opening of the government after the year, it is the emperor's luck. According to his son, he is afraid that he will hide it for three or two days at most. β
This night is already the Lantern Festival, and the twentieth day of the first month of the New Year will be opened, and the time will be to hold a big court meeting, and it is impossible for the emperor to hide and not see people. Even if it is said that he is sick, the important ministers of the court will go to visit him. will also ask the hospital to show them the medical records for them to see, and continue to hide and hide, which will only cause greater panic and all kinds of unnecessary guesses. And once the emperor shows up. What he wanted to hide was exposed, and what he needed to worry about when the time came, he still needed to worry about. But for people who have been hidden for many days, they will not be too happy in their hearts.
Gao Zhen sees this clearly. King Quang Binh also understood in his heart. He was also a little uncomfortable, and felt even more angry and aggrieved. If in normal times, the emperor is suspicious of him, even if he is unhappy, he will not take it seriously. Because he felt that that kind of suspicion was not painful to him, except that the emperor was uncomfortable, but it was not harmful to him at all. Before, he was worried about the emperor's manipulation of doctors and medicine, but now his eyes are better. What else is there to worry about? As long as he didn't have any rebellion, if the emperor didn't want to leave a bad reputation in the history books. You can't do anything to him.
But now, the emperor's eyes are injured, maybe he will be left disabled, and it is the queen who is still the offender, and the eldest son of the emperor who is going to become the prince is locked up, and the queen mother is also so angry that she faints. For such a big matter, the emperor still wanted to hide it from his brother, thinking that his brother would take away his throne at this time, and the elder brother of King Guangping would naturally be angry. He spent years teaching this younger brother, but he didn't tell the younger brother that he couldn't even tell the weight of the matter!
This anger, King Guangping simply pretended to be fine. Emperor Hengzhi was bent on hiding the truth from him, so he really didn't know. If the emperor still has the leisure to threaten the little girl to coax their father and son, it can be seen that his injuries are not very serious, then nothing serious can happen. The court is still stable, there is no big mess, and if the king of Guangping does not come forward, the situation will not be much worse.
Therefore, when the King of Jinyang brought the clans into the palace and clamored to see the emperor, the King of Guangping still retreated at home to enjoy Mei Yongxue, very leisurely, but he was just a little worried about his mother in Cining Palace.
After listening to what Gao Zhen said, Zhao Xiu couldn't help but sigh.
I think back then, when the father and son of King Guangping and their ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhao family worked together to ensure that the emperor succeeded to the throne, how everyone worked together. It's a pity that the emperor doesn't cherish it, and no amount of loyalty makes him toss. Even his brother is a little disheartened and no longer cares about him, so what's the point of the emperor doing his part?
After Zhao Xiu sighed, he suddenly remembered something, and lowered his voice very low: "On the day of the Lantern Festival, before I went to see you, the Queen Mother said a word to me, and I hid it from others. She repeated that sentence and asked Gao Zhen: "Is the Queen Mother hinting at something?" β
Gao Zhen paused, and suddenly smiled: "Grandmother Huang's idea is right, but my father has his own opinions, so don't worry about Sister Zhao." β
Zhao Xiu pouted: "I don't want to worry about it, I'm afraid that you will suffer a loss." She was a little worried, "King Jinyang suddenly appeared......"
Gao Zhen waved his hand: "It's okay, Uncle Five Emperors is just making a fuss, who dares to push him up with that temperament?" "Gao Zhen really didn't regard King Jinyang as a threat, when he won the throne in the past, he didn't fight for the current emperor, and he had already exposed all the shortcomings of his body. The courtiers are not stupid, unless they have other intentions, who will really support him?
Zhao Xiu had always been convinced by Gao Zhen, and when he said that he didn't need to be afraid of King Jinyang, he was also relieved. She took advantage of the fact that the carriage did not arrive home, first told Gao Zhen about the emperor's injuries in a low voice, and later mentioned the situation of the queen mother, the queen, the emperor's eldest son and others. She was a little worried about Li Shanwen: "Is the eldest son of the emperor really unable to be the crown prince?" It's really innocent to think about him. If the queen is an understanding person, she will not dig such a big hole for her son. β
Gao Zhen said: "Da Lang is indeed wronged, but Erlang deserves it." I see, the emperor is not small this time, Da Lang may still have room to turn around, Erlang is not to be counted on. More than a dozen thoughts had already turned in his mind, and he secretly made up his mind.
While the two were talking, the carriage arrived at Jiannanhou's Mansion. Because there was a female dependent sitting in the car, Gao Zhen still got into the carriage without telling outsiders, and the group did not stop in front of the gate, but stopped directly in front of the second gate. Willow Green lifted the curtain. was about to help Zhao Xiu get out of the car, but when he saw a flower in front of him, Gao Zhen jumped off the ground. turned around to help Zhao Xiu again. Liu Lu blinked, retracted his left hand to help Zhao Xiu, and used two hands to support the curtain instead.
Seeing this, Zhao Xiu's face was slightly red, and he was a little embarrassed. But even though she was embarrassed, she still held Gao Zhen's hand and got out of the carriage. Zhao Wei walked over and saw this. I couldn't help but cough heavily.
Gao Zhen looked at him with a smile: "Is Brother Wei bad?" Why do you have two coughs? Nowadays, the weather is cold, and if the wind blows, it is very easy to catch a cold. Brother Wei is about to get married after a month. Don't fall ill at this time. β
When Zhao Wei heard this, he was embarrassed at first, glared at him, and said nothing. So he went straight to the second gate.
Gao Zhen finally gained the upper hand in front of his brother-in-law. I was very ironed in my heart, and I hurriedly helped Zhao Xiu into the door to see Zhang. Zhao Xiu blushed first, withdrew his hand, and said, "Brother Shizi is becoming more and more unparticular now. "Quietly hiding in the girl's carriage, helping the girl to get out of the carriage and walk, and so on, he couldn't do it before. Now that the wedding date is approaching, he is becoming more and more bold.
Gao Zhen only smiled and did not speak. When I entered the upper room of the main courtyard, I saw Zhang's. Zhang hugged his granddaughter and cried out heartily: "But I scared my grandmother, I didn't know what happened in the palace at first, and when you made a mistake in front of the queen mother, you were punished, and then the prince came over and said that you just stayed in the palace to accompany the queen mother, and my grandmother was at ease, and I was afraid that you would lose your honor in front of the queen mother, and I was afraid that I would be afraid for a night, and I fell asleep at dawn." On the second day, there was news that the queen had collided with the queen mother, and the queen mother was sick. Grandmother was worried about you and the queen mother, but in the evening, she said that the queen assassinated the emperor, and the palace blocked the news, so she detained a few of you. There was a mess outside, there was not a single quasi-letter, and some people even said that the emperor was seriously injured and could not wake up. Last night, my grandmother didn't sleep all night, for fear that you would have a good one in the palace. β
Zhao Xiu was distressed when she heard this, and hurriedly comforted her: "Let my grandmother worry, I don't have anything to do." It's just that it just happened that this happened when the Queen Mother was summoning us. The emperor was afraid that we would talk nonsense out of the palace, so he let us stay in Cining Palace to accompany the queen mother. The Queen Mother was very sad, and with a few of us persuading her, she felt better. β
Zhang sighed: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. Although the Queen Mother is noble, her life is not comfortable. Whoever has a daughter-in-law like the queen can't stand it, let alone the queen who assassinated the emperor? Although the emperor's life was saved, I don't know how long I can last with such an injury. It's a pity that the two princes have such a mother. I don't know if the dragon species in the womb of the concubine is male or female. If the emperor has a good person, who will inherit the throne? β
Hearing Zhang's words, Zhao Xiu couldn't help but wonder: "Grandmother, where did you hear about this?" "It's quite detailed, and the authenticity is also very reliable.
Zhang said: "Now it's all spread like this outside. Mrs. Cao Jiatai sent someone over, but it was better to talk in detail outside. I'm afraid there are rumors on the streets. β
Zhao Xiu looked back at Gao Zhen, both of whom had some guesses.
Gao Zhen just took Zhao Xiu home and said a few words to his fiancΓ©e by the way. After meeting the Zhang family and chatting a few words about family life, I have to go back to the Guangping Palace. Zhang's didn't keep any guests, but only called him: "If you have time to go to see the Queen Mother, her old man must be very bitter." Gao Zhen agreed, reluctantly glanced at Zhao Xiu again, and then said goodbye and left.
After he left, Zhao Xiu retreated left and right, and said to Zhang and Zhao Wei: "Now that the king of Jinyang is jumping in the court, the king of Guangping seems to have some intention of standing by and watching. β
Zhao Wei said: "A few old adults are still watching, the teacher, I also asked, he told me not to pay attention to it, let alone get involved." I'm still young, even if there is any big thing, it is also the senior ministers rushing ahead, when will it be the turn of a young man like me to talk more? Besides, the emperor's injury is true, but his life is unhindered, and let's see how the injury is healed, and then talk about other things. It's just that the eldest son of the emperor still needs to be protected, which also means stabilizing the overall situation. β
Zhao Wei's teacher is naturally Li Guangdi. This is worthy of being a famous minister, and he can make it clear in a few words, but the most important thing at the moment is not what he said in these words?
Zhang also understood, although he felt a little sorry for the Queen Mother, but he also made up his mind: "It's okay, the palace is in chaos now, and it's not good for me to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye at this time." Let's wait until things settle down. After a while, Brother Wei is going to get married, and it is serious for our family to prepare for the wedding. In the affairs of the court, the elders are in charge. β
Zhao Xiu and Zhao Wei responded together, so they really didn't care about the movement outside, and only prepared for Zhao Wei's wedding. Before the wedding, Zhao Wei still has a birthday to celebrate, just February 15, a few days away, and there are a lot of things at home.
He also sent a secret letter to his father-in-law's family, although Mi Xingzhi is a little lacking in human feelings, people understand it, and naturally understand the importance of the matter. He sat on the throne of Shuntian Mansion and performed the duties of Shuntian Mansion Yin, regardless of what happened to the court, he only ordered people to pay attention to the security inside and outside the capital, so as not to make people take advantage of the loopholes and take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. Other than that, it doesn't matter. With him with him, the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion was very stable, and there were large and small chaos inside and outside the capital, and they quickly asked people to suppress it.
There are low-key people like the Guangping Palace, Zhao and Mi, there are people like the King of Jinyang, and there are first-class people, but when they saw that there were waves in the capital, they took the opportunity to drill the camp. Some people are eyeing the position of the princess of Jinyang, wanting to burn a hot stove and fight for wealth and honor, and some people see that the queen has committed an accident and specially alienate the Qushui Bofu, even the Li family, who is married to the emperor's eldest son, some people avoid it, for fear that his family will affect himself.
Although the Li family is angry and funny, they will not meet such people in general, but his family has found someone to jointly write a letter asking the emperor to forgive the emperor's eldest son. No matter what the queen is, the eldest son of the emperor has always had a good temperament, and the courtiers have seen it, so they naturally know that he is the most stable and upright. It would be a pity if the crown prince who had been raised so big was abolished because of the queen's mistakes.
At this time, some important ministers woke up and were no longer at the mercy of King Jinyang. What does he want to do, who doesn't know? If the eldest son of the emperor is really abolished, won't it be the will of the king of Jinyang? Whether or not the queen's crimes affect the emperor's eldest son, now is not the time to abolish the prince. Even if it is abolished, it will have to wait until the emperor has a third son who can be a great man!
As a result, the court and the central government are very lively every day, some advocate the abolition of the reserve, some advocate the abolition of the reserve, and some advocate that the queen and the eldest son of the emperor should be protected, and some people say that it doesn't matter if the emperor is temporarily established, and there is a small group of people who think that it is okay to abolish the reserve, and wait for the concubine to give birth to the prince and then discuss the new reserve. The emperor was annoyed by the quarrel, and the eye injury did not improve, and the pain was unbearable every day......
The Emperor was distraught. What made him even more upset was that King Guangping had never entered the palace to visit his injury, and their father and son only went to Cining Palace to visit the Queen Mother, and then they stayed at home with peace of mind. The emperor ordered someone to ask the concubine Xiao of the king of Guangping, and the latter also reflected that their father and son had not seen any outsiders in the mansion, and they were living an ordinary life.
The emperor was puzzled in his heart, and he was still a little aggrieved: he was so seriously injured, why didn't the imperial brother come to take a look? Could it be that the royal brother doesn't want his throne?
The emperor couldn't hold his breath, and he specially decreed that the king of Guangping would enter the palace and see him. (To be continued......)
PS: Chapter 610 had a problem before, and it was not dealt with in time, it was my negligence, I reacted to the technical department, and it is said that it has been solved, I wonder if you can see that chapter normally now?
