Chapter 322: The child is willing to follow his father and fight on the battlefield
Zhao Yong has succeeded to the throne for 26 years, and he is over forty years old. In his long years, there were two women who were crucial to him. The first woman is the daughter of King Han Xuan, and the other woman is Meng Yao. Gongzi Zhang is the first son of the daughter of Zhao Yong and King Han, and the eldest son of Zhao Yong. Gongzi He and Gongzi Sheng are the children of Zhao Yong and Meng Yao.
Gongzi Zhang is twenty years old, Gongzi He is ten years old, and Gongzi Sheng is eight years old. Zhao Yong cherished the children born to him by two women very much. However, the celestial phenomena changed and caused chaos in the country. In order to avoid trouble, Zhao Yong planned to become the crown prince. When Zhao Yong listened to Wu Guang's words, Meng Yao's death was related to his eldest son. Although Zhao Yong didn't believe that his son would do something rebellious in order to consolidate his position. Zhao Yong thought about it for a while, if Gongzizhang is really such a person, then Gongzi He and Gongzisheng will also become the targets of his attack in the future.
If the situation gets out of control, the rebellion of the princes of Qin will also be staged in Zhao. The children and heirs cannibalize each other, this is the last thing that the king and the father want to see. Zhao Yong also wanted to figure out that Meng Yao's death seemed to be really related to Gongzizhang. Suddenly, the situation of the Zhao Dynasty was surging, permeating the entire Handan. If this matter is not handled properly, Zhao Guo will also fall apart. I want Zhao Yong to succeed to the throne and reach the age of fifteen. The princes of the Central Plains plotted against Zhao in the name of burial. Now, Zhao Yong first supported King Yan and then King Qin. Subsequently, Zhao Yong promoted Hufu cavalry shooting, several times to attack Zhongshan, hit Sanhu, and expand Hujiang. The state of Zhao went from a weak country that was bullied by the princes to a strong state.
Today's Zhao is stronger than Han and Wei, not weaker than Qi and Qin. How strong the Zhao State was after the Hufu cavalry shooting was a question that the monarchs and ministers of the Zhao State and the princes of the Central Plains wanted to care about. However, Zhao Yong did not join the Central Plains war, and chose the style of Taoguang and obscurity, which made the Central Plains princes unable to see the strength of Zhao clearly.
At this moment, there is a vision in the sky, warning that there is great chaos in the sky.
Zhao Yong spent most of his life, and it was not easy for Zhao to become a strong state, naturally he didn't want to see Zhao go into decline. Zhao Yong's heart has never wavered, but he must also have a foolproof plan, so as not to make a wrong decision and bring disaster to Zhao Guo and himself.
Prince Zhang is in the East Palace, practicing riding and archery. Suddenly, a person came to report in a hurry: "Prince, something is wrong." ”
Prince Zhang raised his bow and shot an arrow, threw the big bow to a eunuch, and asked, "Taifu, what's the alarm?" ”
Taifu said in a low voice: "The situation in the palace has changed, please take a step to speak." ”
Prince Zhang dismissed the eunuchs and maidservants around him and asked, "Taifu, what can you say?" ”
Taifu said with a cold expression: "Prince, the stars were different last night. ”
Prince Zhang smiled: "The stars are different, what does it have to do with me." ”
"The prince knows what the stars say." Seeing that the prince didn't know the severity, Taifu hurriedly said: "The sky is killing, and the stars are moving." The celestial phenomena are overturned, the glow is confused, and the Beidou is urging hiding. ”
Seeing Taifu's hurried tone, Prince Zhang also realized that the celestial phenomena were not good for him, and asked with a calm face: "Taifu, what do you mean by this." ”
Seeing that the prince was not confused, Taifu replied: "The meaning of the celestial phenomena is very clear, and someone will threaten the king. ”
"The monarch is so wise, who can threaten the position of the monarch." Prince Zhang said lightly: "Is Taifu too careful?" ”
Taifu said in a solemn tone: "The person who threatens the king is the prince. ”
"Me?" Prince Zhang exclaimed: "My father is my role model, how can I threaten my father." ”
"I naturally know the prince's character and personality." Taifu said, his face became more and more looking, "But the astrological signs are different, and it is not good for the prince." If someone is taking advantage of celestial phenomena to make a big fuss about the prince. ”
Gongzizhang asked, "Taifu means that someone will target me." ”
"That's what I'm worried about." Taifu's tone was full of worry, "It is the will of heaven that the celestial phenomena are changing. If it is used by others, it is artificial. The current situation is extremely unfavorable for the crown prince. The prince should also have planned in advance. ”
A trace of uneasiness slipped through the corner of Prince Zhang's eyes, "What does Taifu mean by this." ”
"The death of the queen is too big a blow to the king." Taifu slowed down his speech, "If someone uses the queen as a chess, there is a saying that the king is superior." The king is a man of temperament, and it is inevitable that he will make unusual moves. Now there is a vision in heaven. What will you do. ”
Gongzizhang swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, "Taifu means that the monarch will depose me as the crown prince." ”
"In order to avoid trouble, the king will depose the prince." Taifu said: "It is imperative that the prince plan early." ”
Prince Zhang asked with a cold expression, "Taifu, what should I do." ”
Taifu sighed heavily: "There is no other way to do it now. If the prince wants to abolish the prince, the prince must also take a good countermeasure. ”
"Nope." The crown prince vetoed: "How can I be an enemy of the monarch's father." ”
"Don't forget, prince." Taifu said: "The death of the queen is inseparable from the prince. ”
"I followed my father to fight Sanhu in Daijun, and the dust was settled in the northern frontier." Prince Zhang said: "What does her death have to do with me. ”
Taifu saw that the prince was upright, but he didn't know how to plan for himself, "The queen was assassinated in the palace." The person who assassinated the queen was the prince's cronies and guards. If the king learns this news, the prince will be speechless. If there is something different today, the king's ambition has greatly decreased because of the queen's departure. For the sake of the queen, the king can't do anything. ”
"Those who are turbid are self-turbid, and those who are clear are self-purifying." Prince Zhang said: "Those people are my cronies and guards. I don't know who commanded them. The monarch is a wise man who knows right from wrong. My father would never believe that I had done it. ”
"The prince is so confused!" Taifu saw that the prince was not enlightened at all, "How can you understand right and wrong." The death of the queen was not committed by the crown prince. But the people who assassinated the queen were the prince's cronies and guards. If you choose to believe, what should you do? ”
Prince Zhang naturally understands that that woman is everything to the monarch's father. If the monarch's father believed that he assassinated that woman, not to mention that the crown prince could not be kept, there might be continuous disasters, and even his own life. Prince Zhang took a cold breath and said in his heart: "Could it be that I really want to be with my father..."
Taifu also noticed the prince's slight change, and hurriedly said: "Prince, it's not as good as us..."
"No, you can't." Prince Zhang knew what he wanted to express, and truncated: "He is my sovereign father. How can I face my father with the sword? ”
Taifu knew that the prince had a pure temperament and could not do such a rebellious thing as seizing the throne, and his tone was full of worry: "The situation is not favorable to the prince. At the moment, the prince can't enter, so he can only retreat. ”
Prince Zhang took a breath, snorted lightly, and said in a melancholy tone: "If the monarch really thinks that I assassinated that woman. I've got no way back. ”
Taifu said: "The prince doesn't want to face each other with the king's sword. So far, there is only one way to convince the monarch that the death of the queen has nothing to do with you. ”
Prince Zhang asked, "What is the way Taifu does?" ”
Taifu said: "Take the initiative to ask for scrap." ”
Prince Zhang glanced at the sky, his eyes were complicated. The queen mother died for many years, leaving him with not many memories. He was born as the crown prince of Zhao and the future king of a country. However, life is impermanent! Once the pride of the earth, under one person, above ten thousand. Now, it has ended up in such a field.
At this moment, Mu Jian came over and saluted: "Prince, your lord's invitation." ”
Prince Zhang stabilized his mind and replied, "What is the matter with Father Jun?" ”
Mu Jian grew up watching Prince Zhang and had a deep relationship with him, but there were some things he couldn't say.
Prince Zhang also knew that although the person in front of him was a Zhongzheng, his official rank was not high. But he was in charge of guarding Miyagi, and he was also one of the most trusted people of the monarch's father. Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Prince Zhang must have some concerns, so he didn't embarrass him, and saluted: "Please lead the way." ”
Mu Jian stretched out his hand and said, "Prince please." ”
Prince Zhang followed Mu Jian into the palace, and along the way, the two of them kept their distance, and there was no word exchange. Seeing that this road leads to the dormitory where the queen mother lives, the Yingfeng Palace, Prince Zhang said in his heart: "Why does the monarch want me to come here." ”
Not long after, the prince Zhang came to the outside of the Yingfeng Palace.
Mu Jian shouted: "Your Majesty, the prince has arrived. ”
Han Zhong walked out of the hall and shouted, "Please enter the palace." ”
The prince stepped into the main hall in front of the prince, and the door of the palace was closed by the eunuch. Prince Zhang came to the front of the palace and saluted: "Zhang'er, meet the monarch's father." ”
Zhao Yong raised his hand and said, "Get up!" ”
Hearing the tone of his father, Prince Zhang was much colder than before, and replied calmly: "Thank you, Father Jun." ”
Zhao Yong asked, "Zhang'er, do you remember where this is?" ”
"This is the queen mother's bedchamber." This is also the place where Prince Zhang remembered his mother when he was a child, how could he not know.
"If you know, it's good." Zhao Yong's face was grim and said, "Zhang'er, the widow has something to ask you." There are only widows and you here, and you have to tell the truth, and you can't hide anything. ”
Prince Zhang chuckled in his heart and replied, "Oh." ”
Zhao Yong's eyes stared at his son, and asked without subtlety, "Does Meng Yao's death have anything to do with you?" ”
Although Prince Zhang was prepared before entering the palace, when this sentence came out of Zhao Yong's mouth, he was really frightened, and knelt down and said: "Father, the death of the queen mother, the child is so sad. ”
Faced with this answer, Zhao Yong naturally didn't like it, "Is Meng Yao's death related to you?" ”
The prince said: "The death of the queen mother has nothing to do with the child. ”
Zhao Yong's eyes were straight, staring at Prince Zhang, and his eyes were cold: "You hate her?" ”
"Yes." Prince Zhang said: "The child hates her. ”
"You hated her, so you let people kill her."
"The death of the queen mother is not the work of a child."
With a glance at Zhao Yong, he believed that Meng Yao's death had nothing to do with him.
is the so-called knowing son Mo Ruo father.
Zhao Yong has always believed in his heart that the assassination of Meng Yao was never done by his son. Prince Zhang followed him, attacked Zhongshan several times, planned to attack Sanhu, and stabilized Hujiang. When the news of Meng Yao's death reached Daijun, Prince Zhang obviously didn't know about it. But Meng Yao's death, who is beneficial, the answer is needless to say that it is Prince Zhang. Meng Yao is one of the most beloved women in Zhao Yong's life. How Meng Yao does not die, Zhao Yong loves the house and Wu, maybe he will abolish the prince chapter and change the prince to what is the prince.
At present, all the evidence points to the prince zhang. In addition, there are many phenomena such as changes in the sky. Zhao Yong seems to have realized that someone wants to use celestial phenomena and Meng Yao's death to achieve ulterior purposes.
Zhao Yong saw the child's sincere eyes, and he didn't spend too much time on this issue, and said: "Last night, the widow got a celestial phenomenon. The sky kills, and the stars move. The celestial phenomena are overturned, the glow is confused, and the Beidou is urging hiding. Zhang Er knows what this means. ”
When Prince Zhang heard this, he replied with sincere fear: "The will of heaven is unpredictable, and the stars are difficult to understand. The child does not know the heavens, nor does he know the meaning of the heavens. ”
"This is a warning from heaven to the widow." Zhao Yong said in a bright tone: "This image is a sign of chaos. Yingfu guards the stars, and there is a vision in the sky, which means that you, the prince, will become the lord of Zhao Kingdom. ”
Prince Zhang said in fear: "There are not many people in the world who can know the celestial phenomena. It is difficult to distinguish between the true and the false in the heavenly phenomena. The monarch's father is the prince of the Holy Wisdom, how can he believe in the words of the heavens? ”
Zhao Yong asked in an accentuated tone, "Have you ever thought about becoming the lord of Zhao Kingdom?" ”
Prince Zhang knelt on the ground with a thud, and said with a pale face: "The child doesn't dare." ”
Zhao Yong asked coldly, "There are only two people here, you and me." The widow wants to hear you tell the truth. ”
"The monarch is in the prime of his youth, wise and wise. The monarch's father ordered the world, the people returned to their hearts, and Beihu surrendered. How dare a child think anything wrong? ”
"You are fifteen years old, take the initiative to ask for help, and follow the widow to fight in Zhongshan. Commanded an army of 10,000 people alone, captured the generals of Zhongshan, and shocked the princes. Today, he has struck Sanhu again, expanded Hu Jiang, and has a prominent reputation. Zhao Yong changed his tone and said: "Your achievements are obvious to all the people." If you want to become the lord of Zhao and replace the widows, why not. ”
"The state of Zhao is under the governance of the monarch's father, and only then is everyone united. Zhao went from a weak country to a strong country, all because of the efforts of his father's life. The grace of the monarch's father is all over the country, and he is also famous among the princes and the grassland Beihu. The power of a child is like the light of fireflies, and the power of a father is the light of the sun and the moon. The prince said: "The child's achievements are not as good as the monarch's father, how dare he take the monarch's father's place." Zhao needs a monarch's father to be able to settle the northern frontier and conquer the princes. ”
"Your prestige is high, and you need not be too modest. If you can protect the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains laid by the widow, the widow will be in you. ”
"The monarch's father is alive, how dare the child succeed to the throne." Prince Zhang said: "The Zhao State needs the rule of the monarch and father to be able to work together. The inheritance of the throne from the monarch's father to the child is a matter of national system, and the monarch's father is asked to think twice. ”
"The widow is in advance of you, and it is natural that the decision is made after careful consideration. With your character and prestige, plus you are the eldest son of a widow, it is only fitting that you will succeed you as the lord of Zhao State. Zhao Yong's tone was sonorous and powerful, "Today, there is a vision in the sky to warn, and the widow is in advance to avoid trouble." ”
"Father is warning because of the celestial signs, and Zen is in me. The child implored the monarch to depose the child as the crown prince in order to avoid trouble. ”
Zhao Yong didn't expect the child to say this, and exclaimed: "Do you know what you are talking about." ”
"The child understands." Prince Zhang said firmly: "Brother He is benevolent, filial piety, and virtuous. Please make Brother He the crown prince. The child is willing to follow his father and fight on the battlefield. ”
