"Your Highness has exploded into foul language......

"Ah, Your Highness has exploded......

In the hall of the main house in the north courtyard of King Su's Mansion, Zong Wei Jiao, Gao Kuo, as well as Que'er, Lu'er, Una, Sheep's Tongue Xing, and the people in the hall all looked at Zhao Hongrun, whose expression had changed greatly, and didn't dare to speak.

They rarely saw such a gaffe for their Highness.

Probably frightened by Zhao Hongrun's reaction, Una waved her hand again and again and said, "I won't watch it, I won't watch it...... Don't be angry. ”

Seeing her somewhat aggrieved appearance, Zhao Hongrun was angry and funny, and said helplessly: "You...... Ay. ”

After that, he turned his head to look at the sheep's tongue apricot and said, "Xing'er, let's talk about it." ”

Although the age of the sheep tongue apricot is a few years younger than Una, but as the actual hostess in charge of the income and expenditure of the Su Wangfu, the sheep tongue apricot is much more stable than Una, after she saw Zhao Hongrun's helpless expression and Una's somewhat aggrieved look, she smiled and relieved Zhao Hongrun and said: "Sister Una, didn't the slave family tell you a long time ago, the "big position" and "throne" in Wei Yan do not refer to a chair, if there is really a chair full of treasures, will the husband hide it and be reluctant to show it to Sister Una? My husband is the most precious Sister Una. ”

These words immediately made Una smile.

Seeing this, Yang Yu Xing explained to Zhao Hongrun: "Husband, that's the case, today Sister Una is bored in the house, so the slave family took Sister Una to the street, and it happened that the house needs to prepare some ingredients, I never thought that when I was in the market, I heard someone talking about my husband, so I stopped and listened for a while......" Speaking of this, she secretly glanced at Zhao Hongrun's expression, and said cautiously: "Listen to them, husband, you intend to compete for the throne, so yesterday in the palace Jiying Hall vigorously suppressed King Qing Hongxin and King Nanliang, Shengsheng pushed His Royal Highness King Yan, who was friendly with you, to the position of Hangoi Shou......"

『……』

Zhao Hongrun rubbed his eyebrows with a smile when he heard this, and at this time he finally suddenly realized: I just said why so many people show loyalty to me today, it turns out that ...... So.

With a long breath, he turned his head to look at Zong Wei Chang Wei Jiao and asked, "Wei Jiao, what do you want to tell just now?" ”

"Uh......" Wei Jiao subconsciously glanced at the two hostesses, Una and Yangyu Xing, and said hesitantly: "No, Your Highness." ”

Obviously, Wei Jiao wanted to report Zong Wei Gao Kuo for concealing this matter and not reporting it, but this matter had already been broken by the two ladies of Una and Yang Tongue Xing, so there was no need for him to report anything, after all, his purpose was not to punish Gao Kuo, but out of loyalty, he had to let Zhao Hongrun know about it.

"None?" Zhao Hongrun looked at Wei Jiao thoughtfully, and then set his eyes on Zong Wei Gaokuo.

He's not a fool, how can he not see it?

Is it possible that even the market has spread all over the world, and Gao Kuo doesn't know anything about it?

Obviously, it was Gao Kuo who had concealed it for some reason.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun said angrily: "Gao Kuo, punish you for three months, are you convinced?" ”

Gao Kuo's face was scornful.

In all fairness, compared to the embarrassment of being debunked by His Royal Highness, the three-month Yulu is really nothing, not to mention that the guards all eat and live in the Su Wang's Mansion, just to say that Gao Kuo, the "Gao Ye" in the mouth of the city ranger and the wealthy family, how can he be short of money?

However, he still defended himself in a low voice: "Your Highness, the humble position is not concealed, and there are indeed no rumors in the city that are "unfavorable" to Your Highness......"

"Fuck off!" Zhao Hongrun scolded angrily.

So Gao Gu retreated.

Looking at the back of this brother leaving, Wei Jiao also shook his head helplessly, and then hesitated to intercede with Zhao Hongrun: "Your Highness, in fact, you are high enough to ...... him."

"I understand." Zhao Hongrun nodded and interrupted Wei Jiao's words.

What kind of person is Gao Kuo, how can Zhao Hongrun not understand it after more than ten years of getting along with him? That would never betray him.

But if you don't betray, you don't betray, and in some things, it's hard to guarantee that Gao Kuo won't be selfish, just like not reporting today.

This is not surprising, after all, who doesn't want his Royal Highness to go further? It's human nature.

In fact, is it only Gao Kuo who wants him to go further?

Is the third uncle Zhao Laiyu an exception? Zhao Shen, King of Chengling, Zhao Tan of Anping, and others are exceptions?

Wang Fu of the Smelting Bureau, Li Jin of the Military Casting Bureau, and Meng Kui, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, are these Su Wang Party or court officials close to the Su Wang Party an exception?

Zhao Hongrun bet that except for Zhao Sheng, the new Zongfu Zong Ling and Zhu Zhujun, who may have been instructed by Zhao Yuanyan, the Zongzheng of the Zongfu, to come to inquire about the situation, the rest of those who handed over the worship post were basically here to show their loyalty and sincerity.

When the meal was approaching, Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, brought Cao Yan, the chief of the sect's guard, to visit in a hurry.

As soon as they met, Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, said in surprise: "Hongrun, I heard that you are ready to compete for the throne, right?" Don't worry, I fully support you, foolish brother! ”

It turned out that during the period when Zhao Hongrun woke up today and set off to inspect the Smelting Bureau and the Military Casting Bureau, Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, and Zhao Hongxuan, the king of Huan, who were sleeping in the guest room of King Su's mansion, also woke up one after another, and returned to the palace in Daliang.

As a result, halfway through, Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, also heard the news that seemed to spread throughout the city, so he went and returned, returned to the Su Wangfu, and explained his heart to the eighth brother Zhao Hongrun, preparing to vigorously support the latter.

But seeing that Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, was patting his chest and swearing at the moment, Zhao Hongrun was not angry.

He secretly said to himself: If it wasn't for helping you suppress the King of Nanliang yesterday, would I have fallen to this point?

After a helpless wry smile, Zhao Hongrun explained: "Fourth brother, I don't plan to compete for the position. ”

"Huh?" Zhao Hongjiang said in surprise: "But, it's spread all over the city......"

"Who is this all for?!"

Zhao Hongrun glanced at Zhao Hongjiang angrily, and explained with a little resentment: "Most likely, yesterday I came forward for the fourth brother to suppress the king of Nanliang, so that the court and the outside misunderstood......"

Although Zhao Hongjiang is reckless, he is not a fool, when he heard Zhao Hongrun's resentful words, he didn't understand, and laughed wryly.

Indeed, yesterday's suppression of King Qing Hongxin and Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Southern Liang, in Jiying Palace, for Zhao Hongrun, except for a dissatisfaction with Zhao Yuanzuo, King of Southern Liang, there is no actual benefit, and the real benefit is Zhao Hongjiang, King of Yan.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun responded to that sentence, and he didn't get any benefits but caused a commotion, which was indeed a little depressed.

Seeing Zhao Hongrun complaining intentionally or unintentionally, Zhao Hongjiang was also embarrassed, and suddenly, he rolled his eyes and persuaded: "Hongrun, otherwise you will fight with the situation, right?" Foolish brother is definitely on your side. …… How many of us brothers, who else is more suitable for that position than you? ”

Zhao Hongrun shook his head.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongjiang was surprised and asked, "Why?" ”

He really couldn't figure it out, you know, their brothers, like the eldest, second, third, and fifth, fought for that position, even if it was him, if he hadn't been enthusiastic by Zhao Hongrun's words back then, and gave up the throne to defend the country for Wei, most of them would have joined it.

But the eighth brother in front of him seems to be really uninterested in that position.

Seeing Zhao Hongjiang asking, Zhao Hongrun explained helplessly: "Fourth brother, don't just talk about me, if it were you, would you be willing to stay in the narrow place of the Vertical Arch Hall every day, and review the pieces that you can't read all your life all day long?" ”

"Uh......" Zhao Hongjiang was speechless.

In all fairness, according to the temperament of Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, he is not a suitable material for being a king, not to mention the talent for the time being, the main thing is that the personality is not suitable.

Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, is more suitable to sit on the frontier of Wei, command thousands of troops and horses, and let him stay in the small place of the vertical arch hall every day, which is enough to suffocate the brave king of Yan to death in less than three months.

“…… Look at your father, the father of the year was said to be skilled in bows and horses, and had a good martial arts, but now you look at your father. Zhao Hongrun continued.

He didn't say anything, he thought that when Zhao Yuanxi, the son of Wei Tianzi, was over twenty years old, he was really skilled in arching and horses, but now? Not to mention that the muscles of the year have become fat, it is obviously only close to the age of fifty, but it looks more than ten years old.

I have to say that for a faint monarch, the throne is like heaven, but for a wise monarch, the throne is equivalent to a cemetery.

"And what are you going to do?" Zhao Hongjiang, the king of Yan, asked, "As far as Brother Yu knows, this matter seems to have spread all over Daliang. ”

"Well...... this"

Zhao Hongrun also felt a little headache.

In addition to the headache, he also suspected that someone was behind it, otherwise how could the incident that happened in the Jiying Hall yesterday spread throughout the city so quickly?

『…… Who's behind this?'

That night, Zhao Hongrun lay on the couch and tossed and turned, thinking about it.

In fact, this matter has to be considered from both sides.

If it is the person who is behind the scenes, his intention is to force him Zhao Hongrun to participate in the struggle for the throne, then it is directly from Zhao Laiyu, Zhao Shen, King of Chengling, Zhao Tan, Marquis of Anping and other nobles of the Suwang Party - but looking at Zhao Laiyu personally coming to the door today to test the tone, it should not be these nobles.

There is also a possibility, that is, someone wants to take advantage of this incident to force him Zhao Hongrun to leave Daliang to avoid the limelight temporarily.

From this point of view, the possibility of Yongwang Hongyu and Xiangwang Hongjing is higher.

It won't be King Qing Hongxin and King Zhao Yuanzuo of Southern Liang, after all, this matter is extremely humiliating for them, how can it spread widely?

Suddenly, Zhao Hongrun recalled the strange smile of his father when he was in Jiying Hall yesterday, and the fact that the meritorious people of the Suwang Party occupied half of the seats in the east seat......

The more Zhao Hongrun thought about it, the more he felt wrong, and his complexion became relatively worse.

In the early morning of the next day, when Zhao Hongrun, who had been tossing and turning for half a night, was still sleeping in the mansion, at the west gate of Daliang, Jie Ziyuan, a staff member of the Su Wang's Mansion, finally arrived at Daliang from Sanchuan under the protection of several Su Wang Wei.

Originally, Jie Ziyu planned to find an inn first, bathe and change clothes, and then go to King Su's mansion to meet King Su Zhao Hongrun, so as not to lose the courtesy.

But on the way to the inn, Jie Ziyu inadvertently heard many hot rumors in the city, such as "King Su suppressed King Qing Hongxin in Jiying Palace" and "King Su is preparing to seize the throne", and his heart was slightly stunned.

"Your Highness wants to take the initiative to compete for the throne? How is this possible? …… Is this being framed? Having said that, His Highness's reputation in Daliang is really incredible......

Looking at the people in the city who were not far away who were saying good things for King Su Zhao Hongrun, Jie Ziyu's heart moved slightly: Maybe you can take advantage of it.

"Let's go, go back to the palace!" He said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, several Su Wangwei who escorted him back to Daliang asked in surprise, "Sir, why don't you settle down at the inn first?" ”

"No, go back to the palace immediately!" Jie Zilu said categorically.

Although he didn't know who was behind it, he felt that this matter might be able to be manipulated.

What he wanted to assist was not just His Royal Highness the "King Su".
