Chapter 254: Zhao seems to be tired
Song Huizong Zhao Ji adopted Zhao Gou's suggestion, and there was some reluctance in his heart, Zhao Yougong's plan to usurp the throne was a big matter, and he was not beheaded, but confined in the mansion and stayed at home. Moreover, Zhao Ji told him that he was waiting for his punishment in the mansion.
That night, Zhao seemed to help Zhao Yougong out of the palace and returned to the Chu Palace's mansion to heal. Before Zhao Yougong left, he solemnly thanked Zhao Gou, and Zhao Gou also gladly accepted it, and finally Song Huizong also went back to the palace to rest, and asked Zhao Gou to see him after arranging everything.
After Zhao Gou waited for everyone to leave, he immediately ordered the Ouchi guards to clean up the battlefield, and those prisoners did not have any chance of survival. In addition, Zhao Gou said a few words vaguely, and everyone nodded one after another, without any hesitation, and the matter was over.
After dealing with the matter, Zhao Gou came to the study, Song Huizong was sitting in danger of dealing with government affairs, as if nothing had happened, everything was as usual, he saw Zhao Gou come in, so he asked him to sit down, and asked straight to the point: "Why do you play and ask for forgiveness for Gong's life, I want to listen to the truth!" ”
Zhao Gou handled it calmly: "Father, didn't the son say it before?" Presumably my father has not forgotten! ”
"You kid!" Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Gou with a smile, shook his head helplessly, and said in a straight voice: "What you did before was very right, I am very pleased!" In this way, not only can the big things be small, but the small things can also be restored, so that you can be loyal to you, a rare opportunity! ”
Zhao Gou frowned and said in surprise: "Loyal to me? ”
Zhao Ji saw that he was a little puzzled, and said with a slight smile: "You don't know the character of Gong, even his father can't make him bow his head." What happened back then, you must already know it clearly, what was right and wrong in that matter, you can only say that the fault cannot be blamed on Yougong. ”
Zhao Gou heard his father mention Zhao Yougong and his master's son, and couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen carefully. Zhao Ji didn't care either, and continued: "I found out that the two of them just fell in love with the same woman, and they relied on their strong martial arts, so they made an appointment to compete, but I didn't expect Yougong to shoot too hard and beat people to death directly, and in the end he didn't deny it." ”
"Father, since this is the case, why don't you make it clear?" Zhao Gou asked curiously, he really didn't understand a little.
Zhao Ji smiled bitterly: "Yougong, this kid has a very stubborn personality, even more stubborn than his father, even if he kills someone, he doesn't feel that he is at fault, he only thinks that it is inevitable that there will be deaths and injuries in the competition, and he is stunned and does not admit his mistake." In the end, your thirteenth uncle beat him directly, and at that time, your thirteenth uncle's temper was very hot. ”
"If it weren't for me just going to his house as a guest, I didn't know that things would be like this, your thirteenth uncle was angry and directly hit him with a dead hand, you think about it, he himself is a person who practices martial arts, even if he is ruthless, he doesn't fight back, let him fight, and in the end he can't see it, I come forward to stop it."
"In the end, Yougong, the child, fainted directly, and lay in bed for a month to recover his body, and finally your thirteenth uncle directly punished him for not being allowed to go out, and asked him to remove his official position. I thought about it, after all, there was a lot of trouble, and I finally agreed. ”
"Your thirteenth uncle is angry in his heart, his son killed someone, you can't treat it as if nothing happened! Besides, that person is still Zhou Dong's only son, and he was originally the one who wanted to inherit his mantle, but he died like this, and no one was reconciled, but Zhou Dong knew the identity of your thirteenth uncle, so he didn't pursue it. ”
"Your thirteenth uncle still came to apologize and explain what happened, Zhou Tong also sighed, he knew that his only son was practicing martial arts, so he asked for advice everywhere, and he didn't say anything more about this matter. Soon after, Zhou Tong resigned and returned to his hometown, tired of officialdom. ”
"Father, why is what you said different from what I know?" Zhao Gou recalled everything he knew before, saying that Zhao Yougong bullied people, and finally killed people without any punishment, how could he hear what his father said, there were two versions at all, so he didn't know who to believe.
Zhao Ji sneered and said, "Your thirteenth uncle was in a high position at that time, and he made a lot of enemies in the court, and those gossips were just spread by those people, in order to belittle your thirteenth uncle in order to achieve their goals." Moreover, the DPRK and China also directly impeached your thirteenth uncle for bullying people for this matter, and this matter was directly and forcefully taken down by me, and many people were degraded, and gradually it spread! ”
Zhao Gou was dumbfounded after hearing this, he didn't expect things to be like this. Although Zhou Tong knew in his heart that Zhao Yougong couldn't be blamed for everything, it was just that at that time, he happened to have a bad official situation, and someone deliberately did it, openly and secretly saying that it was the King of Chu who was obstructing him, and gradually became disheartened and resigned and returned to the field.
Now that I think about it, Zhou Tong just felt uncomfortable, his only son died, and no one could accept it, and it was understandable that there was a gap between the descendants of the Zhao family. If the responsibility really lies with Zhao Yougong, after Zhao Gou's identity is exposed, it is impossible for Zhou Tong to teach him or accept him as an apprentice.
Now Zhao Gou understands why Zhou Tong doesn't let everyone take revenge, he can only say that it is a mistake, or fate makes people! However, after that incident, the relationship between Zhao and Zhou Tong was a little stiff. After all, Zhao seemed to be a bit of a loser in this matter, so he didn't dare to meet Zhou Dong again.
"I asked you to come over, I will tell you about this matter, and I have one more thing to tell you!" Zhao Ji's face was solemn, and he said solemnly: "Your thirteenth uncle is tired, he wants you to take over as the master of the villa, what do you think?" ”
"Let me take over as the lord of the lodge?" Zhao Gou was taken aback, and looked at his father in disbelief, like a dream.
Zhao Ji explained what happened to him again, and it turned out that Zhao seemed to come to the study to find Zhao Ji in frustration after learning that the mastermind behind the scenes was his son, and explained his mind to him. At that time, Zhao Ji was also taken aback when he heard it, and saw Zhao Qiqiang smiling, and the sadness in his eyes, he did not agree, nor objected, and his attitude was simulated.
"Brother Huang, my brother is tired and wants to retire and rest!" Zhao Ru said with a gloomy expression, "Gong'er has done such a rebellious thing, the younger brother has an unshirkable responsibility, this matter is very important, the younger brother wants to step down from the position of the owner, he is really tired!" ”
Zhao Ji was shocked: "Thirteenth brother, what are you kidding?" There are respectful things to arrange freely, why should you be so lost, things have not yet reached that point, don't worry; Besides, Yougong was also grown up under my watch, how could I not know his true nature! ”
Zhao Ru smiled bitterly and said, "It would be good if it was really like that, I'm afraid that he won't be obedient, and his subordinates still know it!" Brother Huang, my brother has been really tired all these years, and I hope that Brother Huang will be successful! After this incident, please allow me to step down! ”
Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Yi intently, seeing that he was sad and distressed, he couldn't say anything he wanted to refuse. However, the Great Song Dynasty is an extraordinary period, and if Zhao seems to really retire, who will replace him, which makes it a little difficult for him.
Zhao seemed to know what Zhao Ji was thinking, and said directly: "The next successor, the younger brother suggests that Gou'er take over, whether it is martial arts or resourcefulness, he is the first choice, and besides, there are some things that should be known to him, which is beneficial and harmless to him!" ”
Zhao Ji thought about it, but didn't answer, but just replied in a simulated way: "Let's discuss this matter for the time being, and I'll give you a reply when I ask what Gou'er means!" Go down! ”
It was Zhao who seemed to feel tired and wanted to remove the position of the owner and let Zhao Gou take over. Zhao Yougong's matter hit Zhao seems to be too big, and it is understandable that it is difficult to adjust for a while, but this matter suddenly caught Zhao Ji a little off guard, so he needs to think about it carefully, some things need to be planned well, otherwise the whole plan will be disrupted, and the final result will be unknown, Zhao Ji does not dare to bet, some things must be handled carefully.
