Chapter 259: Plan Ahead
"Uncle Thirteen, after listening to it for so long, it's time to come out!" Zhao Gou laughed abruptly, causing Zhao Yougong to look around and not find any figure, and just as he was about to speak, a familiar figure appeared beside him, and said in shock: "Father! ……”
Zhao Yougong was shocked, he really didn't know when his father came to his room, there was no sound, there was silence all around, and there was no movement, the only explanation was that Zhao's martial arts were much higher than his own, and he was shocked by Zhao Gou's words, and lost his usual calm.
"Go'er, did you really decide to do this?" Zhao Ru glanced at Zhao Yougong with a smile, signaled him not to move, looked at Zhao Gou again, and said directly.
Zhao Gou nodded solemnly and replied, "That's right! ”
Zhao didn't seem to answer, he had gone to the palace to meet with his brother Zhao Ji before coming here; Zhao Ji did not hide it, told him about Zhao Gou's thoughts and requirements, and accurately told Zhao that he agreed to take over the position of the owner.
"Brother Huang, you also agreed?" Zhao seemed to listen to everything Zhao Ji said, and his heart was flooded with monstrous waves, to be honest, he didn't believe it was true, so he asked this question.
Zhao Ji smiled and said: "I have to agree, you know that kid's ability better than me, and he must have his own ideas when he does this." Besides, this is indeed the best outcome, so you can rest assured! Since you want to retire, then enjoy life with peace of mind; The status quo is theirs, and it's time for us to let it go! ”
Zhao didn't seem to answer, he understood the meaning of Zhao Ji's words, and he understood why Zhao Gou did this, in fact, it was their father and son. At the beginning, Zhao seemed to fake his death and gave up the days of sharing his family, and hid in the shadows to be loyal to the Great Song Dynasty; The status quo, Zhao Gou's request is nothing more than for him to make up for such shortcomings, and it is also to exempt Zhao Yougong from the crimes he committed, which he understands.
After Zhao Yougong's incident, Zhao seemed to be really tired, and he had no intention of serving the Great Song Dynasty and solving problems for the emperor's brother, but in fact, he was shameless. How could Zhao Gou not know what he was thinking, so that things would be simplified, and Zhao Yougong would take over as his deputy, which meant that everything needed to be taught by Zhao Yi, so that the son inherited his father's business, and everything went in a good direction.
Zhao Ru glanced at Zhao Gou deeply, and let him say thank you or not, you must know that Zhao Ru has been iron-clad all his life, how can he thank people easily; Besides, the relationship between Zhao Gou and Zhao Gou is extraordinary, Zhao seems to care about him, Zhao Gou also knows, and it can be regarded as Zhao Gou's reciprocation, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.
"Uncle Thirteen, my brother has agreed, and you will teach you the next things, I believe that everything will come into practice with you!" Zhao Gou smiled slightly, "You have been hidden in the shadows for a long time, you must also know your brother's intentions, and some things have to be done by you temporarily." At present, my identity is not suitable for the time being, and the best person is only my brother! ”
Zhao Yi nodded and said, "I'll leave these things to me, and when you want to take over, you will definitely give a perfect answer." The staff of the villa are all over Bianjing, and even other counties in the Great Song Dynasty have branches, which are intricate, and these things need to be entrusted to you. ”
"No need, you leave it all to your brother, and you can report anything important!" Zhao Gou shook his head, he entrusted all the things to Zhao Yougong, as if he had become a hands-off shopkeeper, and also showed that he had no idea for the time being, and advised: "After my brother's injury heals, you will officially hand it over; In addition, I tried my best to find out the news of Jin and Liao, I want to know their every move, can this be done? ”
Zhao seemed to frown, and said in a deep voice: "This matter is a little difficult, our people are all staying in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and the farthest is also the junction of the two countries, and they have never set foot in the Liao State and the Jin State for half a step. If you want to hear the news, I am afraid that it will be a little tricky, and you must send personnel to other countries. ”
Suddenly, Zhao seemed to think of something, and said dumbfounded: "Do you want to ......?"
"Yes, that's exactly what it means!" Zhao Gou sneered, "The two countries of Song and Jin have formed an alliance to jointly send troops to attack the Liao State, but if it is not our clan, their hearts will be different. Since it is imperative for the two countries to conclude an alliance, but we cannot give the Jin country more chances, I want to control everything about the Jin country, in case they have different intentions; The Liao State is gradually declining, and its demise is just around the corner, but the Jin State is rising and has to be guarded against. ”
"After the destruction of the Liao State, the Jin State must set its sights on the Great Song Dynasty, the wolf ambition of the Jin State, there is no need for the Liao State to be much worse, but the combat effectiveness of the Great Song Army, Uncle Thirteen, you should know better than me, the generals who can really fight well are also old, if the Jin State army really invades the Great Song Dynasty, we are defenseless, and it is difficult to resist it with the current combat strength alone."
"At that time, the Jin soldiers drove straight in, as if entering a no-man's land, the Great Song Dynasty was in danger; Time is running out now, and only by speeding up action and preparing for a rainy day can we nip the danger in the cradle. Even if the Jin State did not invade the Great Song Dynasty, it would be beneficial and harmless to us. ”
Zhao Bi and Zhao Yougong were stunned, they glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Zhao Yougong also knows the affairs of the Jin State, Zhao seems to have been in contact with the envoys of the Jin State, and even the monarch of the Jin State has seen it, and he also knows that the Jin soldiers are brave and good at fighting, and they are much stronger than the Great Song Army.
Although I don't want to admit it, I have to admit that this is the case, and Zhao seems to be difficult to avoid. In addition, what surprised him was that not to mention these things was that he didn't even think about it, even the imperial brother Zhao Ji hadn't thought about it, they just guessed the ambitions of the wolf sons of the Jin Kingdom, especially the complex power of the Jin Kingdom, and there were also people who had two hearts and wanted to embezzle the Great Song Dynasty.
However, they never thought of sending people deep into the Jin country to secretly observe everything and probe the enemy. At this time, Zhao seemed to have to accept in his heart, his martial arts and resourcefulness were not bad; After Zhao Gou said those words, Zhao seemed to be ashamed, even the imperial brother had not thought about things, he thought of them, and pointed to the core. Zhao seems to believe that Zhao Gou has never been in contact with the envoys of the Jin State, let alone take precautions, which can only show that Zhao Gou has analyzed everything and is prepared, which makes Zhao Gou have to admire.
If Zhao Gou knew what Zhao seemed to think in his heart, he would definitely feel a little guilty; If it were Zhao Gou in history, I am afraid that he would not have such a vision, let alone such courage, and would only live in humiliation and get by. All the deeds of the Jin Kingdom are known to future generations, so they must prepare in advance.
Zhao Yougong was stupid, he looked at Zhao Gou, who was younger than himself, and had an indescribable feeling in his heart. Now, he knows that Zhao Gou is not only strong in martial arts, but also much stronger than himself in terms of courage, courage, and resourcefulness, at this moment Zhao Yougong is really convinced, especially Zhao Gou's words, his trust in him is 100%, and he never thought that he would betray Da Song from the bottom of his heart.
Whether it is Zhao Gou's trust in him or Zhao Gou's courage, Zhao Yougong firmly believes that Zhao Gou is a person worthy of trust and an object worthy of loyalty. Now, he understands why his father's previous conversation with Zhao Gou did not mean the meaning of elders, but was more like a year-old friend, originally thinking that it was his father's favor for him; Now, I understand that Zhao Gou has such a ability.
Zhao Yougong looked at Zhao Gou thoughtfully, recognized it from the bottom of his heart, and thought silently: "He, worthy of my loyalty!" ”
