Chapter 1281: Entering the Palace
After that, Que Er went to a water pavilion in the city by herself, trying to contact the person in charge of the "Nightingale", while Zhao Hongrun, accompanied by Shen Yu, Wei Jiao and Peng Chong, took Qin Shaojun, Mi Jiang, Su Girl, Yang Tongue Xing, Una and other five daughters, and took two carriages to the palace.

The commander of the Praetorian Guards who is on duty outside the palace gate today is still Jin Ju, an old acquaintance of Zhao Hongrun and the guards.
It is worth mentioning that when Zhao Hongrun came to the palace yesterday, the commander of the Praetorian Guard had already vaguely expressed his willingness to work for Zhao Hongrun, which made Zhao Hongrun feel helpless, and it was not good to snub the other party and worsen the originally good relationship, so in the end he could only respond vaguely a few times.
No, seeing Zhao Hongrun coming to the palace again today, Jin Ju hurriedly greeted him again, and solemnly clasped his fists to pay homage: "His Royal Highness King Su." ”
Looking at Jin Ju's respectful appearance, Zhao Hongrun was also a little helpless in his heart: if he continued to "gather" people who were willing to be loyal like this, wouldn't it make people more suspicious that he had the heart to compete for the position?
Shaking his head, Zhao Hongrun took advantage of the fact that the women stepped out of the carriage and casually talked to Jin Ju.
Unexpectedly, after Jin Ju looked left and right, he said mysteriously: "By the way, Your Highness, it is said that in the past two days, the two "concubines" in the palace have quarreled over a trivial matter, and at that time, the inner eunuch almost ordered someone to send my guards out to persuade ......."
"Concubine Sun? Those two concubines? Zhao Hongrun asked in surprise.
"It's the two of 'Mingxu Palace' and 'Jingyao Palace'." Jin Ju said in a low voice.
Zhao Hongrun was slightly stunned.
The grandson concubine of "Mingxu Palace" is Sun Guiji, the biological mother of Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, and the grandson concubine of "Jingyao Palace" is Sun Shurong, the biological mother of Zhao Wu, the former was born in the "Waihuang Sun Clan", and the latter was born in the "Jiyang Sun Clan".
It is precisely because of this relationship that the relationship between the two concubines was quite good at the beginning, especially under the threat of concubines such as Shi Guifei and Chen Shuxi, there is a great sense of huddling together for warmth, and it is hard to imagine that these two will turn against each other.
"Oh, by the way, it must be because of the Sanyang incident."
Zhao Hongrun's heart was suddenly shocked.
Even if he doesn't know the specific reason, he can guess how much: Sun Guiji of Mingxu Palace, his son Zhao Hongjiang, King of Yan, was almost killed in Shanyang by Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Southern Liang, and Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Southern Liang, is currently supporting the son of Sun Shurong of Jingyao Palace, Zhao Hongxin, King of Qing.
“…… There are rumors in the palace that His Royal Highness King Qing deliberately wants to harm His Royal Highness King Yan......" After looking left and right, Jin Ju said in a low voice.
"Zhao Wu will deliberately harm the fourth brother if he has a hole in his head."
Regarding the rumors in the palace, Zhao Hongrun scoffed.
Although he doesn't have a good impression of King Qing Hongxin, I believe that the latter will not frame a brother who has no threat to him fighting for the throne - Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, took the initiative to move the palace of King Yan to Shanyang, what other threat can there be?
In this matter, Zhao Hongrun still saw it very clearly: at the beginning, it was not that King Qing Hongxin deliberately harmed Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, but that Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, didn't care about the latter's life or death at all.
Now this rumor in the palace has put this black cauldron on the head of King Qingwang Hongxin, and Zhao Hongrun feels a little worthless for it.
"It can't be from the Splendid Palace, right?" Zhao Hongrun said with a smile and a smile.
In his opinion, such lame rumors may only be thought of by Concubine Shi of the Splendid Palace.
"It's a drag......
Zhao Hongrun shook his head secretly.
Sometimes he also wonders that a woman like Shi Guifei, who has low eyes and no powerful skills, can give birth to a son who is like King Yong's Hongyu, scheming, intelligence, and scheming, which is really unpredictable.
In Zhao Hongrun's opinion, the most powerful concubine in the palace is the queen Wang, if it weren't for the queen who blindly tolerated the old feelings, like Shi Guifei, how could she jump to the ground? Shi Guifei couldn't even fight Chen Shuyan.
But it's a pity that Zhao Hongli, the son of the queen and the eldest prince, is of average intelligence.
Among the princes, the most versatile is Yongwang Hongyu, just like the current generation of Wei Tianzi who is in charge of the country, no matter how big or small, all aspects are properly arranged, even if it is Qingwang Hongxin who is always staring at him, he can't pick out the thorns.
It's a pity that Yongwang Hongyu has a mother who sometimes makes stupid moves, obviously wanting to help her son, but because of her lack of ability, she drags her son back.
Take the recent incident as an example, Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, will definitely have a quarrel with King Qinghongxin, and then affect the two concubines, why should Concubine Shi interfere and leave a bad impression of sowing discord?
At this time, Qin Shaojun, Mi Jiang and other women had already stepped out of the carriage and stood outside the palace gate waiting for Zhao Hongrun.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun said goodbye to Jin Ju.
Although the news revealed to him by Jin Ju did not have any conflict of interest with him Zhao Hongrun himself, Zhao Hongrun still accepted this intention.
"The idea of the King of Nanliang is really unpredictable at times...... Didn't he know that the fourth brother's biological mother, Sun Guiji, and Zhao Wu's biological mother were sisters of the same clan who had a close relationship in the past? Or is there something else going on?'
In all fairness, Zhao Hongrun has not figured out the practice of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang at that time, intentionally or unintentionally not saving Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan.
In Zhao Hongrun's opinion, the King of Nanliang is completely fooling around!
If he informed Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, at that time, or then sent troops to rescue the latter, in terms of the straightforward character of Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, he would definitely admit his feelings, and in this way, it might be possible to win Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, to the side of King Qinghongxin.
But what did Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Southern Liang, do?
He forcibly turned a help who had a chance to entrap him into an enemy.
It's not nonsense, what is it?
"I always feel like it's not that simple......
Muttered to himself, Zhao Hongrun, who was puzzled, pondered this matter in his heart, and led Shen Yu, Wei Jiao, Qin Shaojun, Mi Jiang and others to Ningxiang Palace.
When the group came to Ningxiang Palace, it happened that his younger brother Huan Wang Zhao Hongxuan came out of Ningxiang Palace with his staff Zhou Yu and two Zongwei, and the two sides collided.
"Brother." Zhao Hongxuan greeted excitedly.
"Xiao Xuan?" Seeing his younger brother's joyful face, Zhao Hongrun smiled and said, "What is so happy?" ”
"Hey, hey." Zhao Hongxuan laughed twice, arched his hand towards Zhao Hongrun like a monster, and said, "Thank you brother for giving my little brother kind words in front of my mother, and my mother finally relented......"
"I see."
Zhao Hongxuan suddenly felt in his heart, and said with a smile: "Don't be happy too early, didn't the concubine tell you, only after you get married, will you be allowed to garrison Anyi?" ”
"Well...... this" Zhao Hongxuan was suddenly a little discouraged, sighed and said: "Isn't it a matter of time, if you are a hero, don't you have to compromise in the end?" Speaking of this, he pretended to be excited and said, "Brother, who do you guess my marriage partner is?" ”
"That's settled?" Zhao Hongrun was a little surprised, and asked teasingly: "Whose girl is so unlucky?" ”
Hearing this, Zhao Hongxuan's eyes flashed with a few hints of undetectable complexity, and he said like a sigh: "Brother, what do you mean by this?" ”
Beside him, staff member Zhou Yu and the two Zong Wei were silent.
"Huh? It's not right......
Glancing at Zhou Yu and the two Zong Wei, Zhao Hongrun felt a little strange.
But before he could think about it, he saw Zhao Hongxuan bowing to Qin Shaojun, Mi Jiang, Miss Su, Sheep Tongue Xing, and Una with his fists, and said with a smile: "Don't disturb my brother and a few sisters-in-law to enter the palace to see my mother's concubine, and my younger brother won't join in the fun." ”
When he said the end, he deliberately winked at Zhao Hongrun, deliberately aggravating the three words "join in the fun", obviously, he also noticed the solemn atmosphere between Qin Shaojun and Mi Jiang.
Seeing that his younger brother was about to leave, Zhao Hongrun was inevitably a little anxious.
I finally ran into this younger brother, how could I tell him to run away? ——If something happens to Qin Shaojun and Mi Jiang later, what a good shield this is!
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun grabbed his younger brother's sleeve and said with a smile: "What's the hurry? It's okay to join in the fun. ”
After that, he approached Zhao Hongxuan, lowered his voice and said, "You don't want to see my brother's embarrassment?" ”
"Brother, I've been deceived by you for so many years, do you think I'll still be fooled?" Zhao Hongxuan broke free without cooperation, and said with a smile: "I'm stupid, so I will stay and be used by you." …… Ask for your own blessings. ”
As he spoke, he bypassed Zhao Hongrun and ran away, angrily Zhao Hongrun scolded in his heart: A bastard with no righteousness!
didn't have time to think about his younger brother, Zhao Hongrun took Shen Yu, Wei Jiao, Qin Shaojun, Mi Jiang and others into the main hall of Ningxiang Palace.
At this time, Concubine Shen Shufei was sitting in the main hall, probably just finished talking with Zhao Hongxuan, and when she saw Zhao Hongrun coming with several of her daughters-in-law, her face was suddenly full of smiles: "I just told Hongxuan about you, but after Hongxuan heard it, he said that there was something in his house and he needed to go back......"
"Bastard boy!"
Zhao Hongrun secretly gritted his teeth and cursed the unrighteous younger brother, never thinking about why that younger brother was so wary of him.
At this time, Concubine Shen Shu had already seen Qin Shaojun in a female shirt, and her eyes couldn't help but light up.
Qin Shaojun when she was wearing men's clothes, she had met her as early as last year when Qin Shaojun ran to Daliang alone to beg Wei Qin to take a truce, but Qin Shaojun who changed out of men's clothes and put on a women's shirt was the first time she had seen it.
"The daughter of Gaoyang Ying's family, Ying Ying, has seen Concubine Shuniang."
In front of Concubine Shen Shufei, the future mother-in-law, Qin Shaojun naturally did not dare to be careless, and saluted respectfully.
"Okay." Shen Shufei smiled, and when she turned her head, she saw Mi Jiang again, and the latter also bowed respectfully: "Mi Jiang has seen Concubine Shuniang." ”
"Good, good." Concubine Shen Shufei was even happier, pulling the two daughters-in-law who seemed to be in the main room one by one, and beckoned Zhao Hongrun and the other three daughters to sit in the side hall.
After arriving at the side hall, Concubine Shen Shufei took the initiative to beckon Miss Su, Yangyu Xing, and Una to sit beside her, suggesting that Qin Shaojun and Mi Jiang should sit on either side of Zhao Hongrun.
I have to say that whether it is Qin Shaojun or Mi Jiang, Shen Shufei feels that she is quite a match for her eldest son.
But there is only one "Princess Su", how can this be good?
After thinking about it, Concubine Shen Shufei decided to eat first, and observe the two daughters-in-law during the period.
After a while, the food was ready, and when Qin Shaojun took the rice bowl handed by the maid Xiao Tao, probably in order to please his mother-in-law, he took the initiative to hand it to Zhao Hongrun.
Zhao Hongrun didn't think about it so much, and was about to reach out to pick it up, but he was stunned to see the other side, and Mi Jiang also handed her bowl of rice to him.
Seeing the two jade hands handing the two bowls of rice in front of him at the same time, even if it was Zhao Hongrun, he was a little overwhelmed.
He was very envious of his younger brother Zhao Hongxuan, because the latter could walk away, but he couldn't.
