Chapter Forty-Nine: The Inevitable Battle of Bianjing
Soon Zhao Yi grew up with Zhao Zhi since he was a child, and he also formed a subconscious absolute trust and dependence on Zhao Zhizi, but in his heart Zhao Zhi is the sky, just like a parent in the eyes of a child.
Therefore, although Zhao Yi was still casual when he followed Zhao Zhi's side, he was also sensible and didn't bother Zhao Zhi much, knowing that Zhao Zhi was really like what he said in the inn, he had to work hard for himself, the emperor, and became the enemy of the hundred officials of the Manchu Dynasty.
So Zhao Yi retreated, and he also had his own careful thoughts, that is, to try to let the good-looking queen mother help his brother more, and he could understand his brother Zhao Zhi's hard work, and he definitely didn't have any selfish intentions, and his brother never wanted to be the emperor.
And Zhao Yi was taken to rest by the palace maid, Zhao Zhi's heart was still spinning, but he was also never sober, and said directly to Guo Huai: "Guo Huai, you are not allowed to peek." ”
Guo Huai immediately turned around with a smile and said with a smile: "The old slave doesn't dare, Lord Zhao can wash it with confidence, and when Lord Zhao needs to shout, the old slave dares to turn around." ”
Zhao Zhi took off his clothes and entered the big bathtub in front of him, the water temperature was just right, and he couldn't help but say casually: "I'm just not used to being looked at by a man." ”
Guo Huai immediately smiled and said, "The old slave is no longer a man. ”
I don't know what Guo Huai means, but Zhao Zhi still instantly realized that what he said seemed to be a little inappropriate, and then said: "My father-in-law is disabled but not disabled, it is better than some corrupt officials who don't care about the lives of the people in the world. ”
Guo Huai couldn't help but tremble with his old hand: "The old slave can serve the good adult and the queen mother, and the old slave is satisfied if he waits for the little emperor, and the old slave does not have such great ambitions." ”
Zhao Zhi rubbed his body and said casually: "What? You don't believe what Ben-sama says? Master Ben said that if you can make immortal achievements and be famous for eternity, then you can! ”
Guo Huai directly "pounced" and knelt down, not daring to raise his head and said: "The old slave should not be famous for eternity, as long as he can leave a name by the side of the adult." ”
Zhao Zhi was already lying in the water: "Get up, you will also be my Zhao Zhi's brother in the future, as long as I Zhao Zhi is alive, there will always be a day when I will make immortal contributions to you, because only you are suitable." ”
Guo Huai couldn't help but get up with excitement, his hands trembled: "Old slave, old slave believes in Lord Zhao, I don't know why, what Lord Zhao says, the old slave believes it." ”
Zhao Zhi suddenly sighed: "It's a pity that I'm still dancing on the tip of the knife now, if that Cao Yu and Wang Yanyi enter the city, first of all, the emperor and I will definitely not be able to live, and the queen mother is also difficult to live, but it is better for your father-in-law to survive." ”
Guo Huai, who had just gotten up in an instant, couldn't help but tremble and "plop" to his knees, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Lord Zhao, the old slave swears that there will be no use of Cao and Wang Yanying, and the old slave dares to swear by human hair, if there is a day, the old slave will follow the adult and the queen mother." ”
Zhao Zhi waved his hand: "Get up, don't kneel without moving, don't I treat you as a brother?" ”
Zhao Zhi couldn't help but turn his head to look, not thinking that the moment he spoke, Guo Huai was already scared of sweat on his forehead, and suddenly couldn't help but be stunned and said directly: "Am I so terrible?" ”
But Guo Huai trembled but didn't dare to get up, as if he was struggling in his heart, Lord Zhao, you can even know that Chen Lin secretly poisoned the emperor, can it not be terrible.
Then he bowed his head to the ground and said: "Old slave, the old slave doesn't dare to hide from Lord Zhao, and he also knows that he can't hide from Lord Zhao's eyes, so Cao Yu and Wang Yanyi have sent silver to the old slave;
The old slave was a little greedy for money, although he accepted it, but he never betrayed the queen mother, and he didn't tell the two of them anything about the palace, and asked Lord Zhao to spare his life. ”
Crooked? Zhao Zhi was stunned again, no wonder he could scare him out of sweat with a single sentence, he was just telling the truth.
So he simply couldn't help but say casually: "If the two of you send me silver, I will also accept it, but it is impossible to do things for them." Remember that you can collect the money in the future, but you can't hide it from the Queen Mother. ”
Finally, Guo Huai's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly kowtowed: "Lord Xie Zhao, except for Lord Zhao, no one can treat a disabled person like an old slave as a human being." They are all respectful on the surface, but in their hearts they are really scolding the old slave, and the old slave knows who is good to the old slave. ”
Finally finished washing after a while.
I didn't want Guo Huai to stop respectfully: "Lord Zhao, the Queen Mother is also bathing, I'm afraid it's not over at this time, why don't you accompany Lord Zhao to the side hall to wait." ”
It turned out that he wasn't here to wait for himself to bathe, but to stop himself from suddenly breaking in.
Obviously, the Queen Mother Liu Mo couldn't help but want to try the soap, but then thinking that the Queen Mother Liu Mo was also bathing, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but feel inexplicable.
Soon, in the side hall of the Empress Dowager Liu Mo's bedroom, the wine and food had been specially arranged, and Zhao Zhi simply used it unceremoniously, but he was really hungry.
The only thing is that some nostalgic delicacies of later generations can't be eaten at all in the Northern Song Dynasty, there was no condition to do it before, but now there are conditions to do it but there is no time, and when you have time, you must do it yourself.
As a result, he didn't want to finish eating, Liu Mo also happened to come out with a smile after bathing, and with a slight wave of his hand, Guo Huai retreated directly and silently.
Zhao Zhi also saw Guo Huai suddenly retreat silently, and subconsciously turned his head to look back.
Suddenly, Zhao Zhi's eyes couldn't help but be stunned, if Liu Mo, who was sitting on the phoenix seat, was a ripe beauty, then the one who had just bathed was like a hibiscus out of the water.
Absolute Shudi beauty, especially the rose fragrance of soap on her body, but her dress is half exposed, which almost makes Zhao Zhi look straight in the eyes.
In an instant, I couldn't help but feel inexplicable in my heart, which was clearly for myself.
And Liu Moth had already smiled and said: "Let Zhao Gongzi wait for a long time, the mourning family is also finished bathing as soon as possible, I just used Zhao Gongzi's soap, I don't want it to be as Zhao Gongzi said." ”
Zhao Zhi only felt that the atmosphere was a little charming, and he didn't know what to say: "It's good if Niangniang likes it, but the soap production is simple, it can be made in batches, no matter what kind of floral fragrance can be, and the ministers will send more to Niangniang after that." ”
Liu Mo also nodded unceremoniously and said: "Then there is Lord Lao Zhao, with the soap sent by Lord Zhao, it feels like Lord Zhao is by the side of the mourning family, and it also makes the mourning family feel a little more secure."
Lord Zhao, sit still, you are Yi'er's brother, I am Yi'er's mother, we are also a family, but there is no need to be polite to me, and the mourning family will also pinch your shoulders today. ”
Zhao Zhi couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, what if he couldn't control his anger?
As a result, before he could react, a faint fragrance of roses came to his face, and a soft and smooth jade hand was directly placed on Zhao Zhi's neck, which instantly made the muscles of Zhao Zhi's whole body tense again.
Fortunately, Liu Mo immediately opened his mouth and said: "There are just some things to discuss with Lord Zhao, a few days ago, the king of the Chinese scholar Lang came to see the mourning family alone, but he was a champion twenty years ago;
In fact, the hundreds of officials in the court are not all Cao Yong and Wang Yanyi's people, but the two of them have partnered to embezzle the treasury and want to pull all the officials of the Manchu Dynasty together with themselves;
The king once found the mourning family, and it was he who told the mourning family that Wang Yanying deceived the upper and lower levels and wanted to set up the mourning family, as well as the evidence of collusion with the eunuch Lei Yungong in the inner court, and the mourning family had made Guo Huai stare at Lei Yungong;
It's just that the mourning family didn't agree to move Wang Yanying now, because if Wang Yanqi falls, Cao will inevitably rebel immediately, and the mourning family has to wait for Lord Zhao to come back to discuss. ”
Feeling Liu Mo's soft and smooth jade hand, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but swing again and again in his heart.
But after listening to Liu Mo's words, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but relax when he thought about it and sighed: "For the time being, I can only let the two of him restrain each other, and neither of them will agree to the other party's rebellion as the emperor." It just so happens that we can use this time to accumulate strength, and this Bianjing City is afraid that it will inevitably be a battle. ”
