When he arrived at Zhao Pu's mansion, Zhao Gu saw that the maids in the mansion really looked like relatives, it seemed that Zhao Pu was really bad this time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He followed behind Xiao Zhuzi, and the family members did not come to stop him, and the two went directly to the backyard and came to Zhao Pu's courtyard.
Xiao Zhuzi stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door, and a eunuch opened the door, but it was Zhao Guangyi's personal eunuch Zhao Ling'er.
"Little bamboo girl, you are here, the emperor is talking to Xiangye!" Zhao Ling'er saw that it was a small bamboo and said.
"There is Father-in-law Lao." Xiao Zhuzi saluted, and then entered the room, and after a while, Zhao Ling'er came out again and said to Zhao Gu: "Zhuo Guogong, the emperor let you go in too." ā
Zhao Gu said 'um' and walked into the room, as soon as he entered the room, a heavy smell of medicine came to his face, which showed that Zhao Pu had been sick for not a day or two.
Zhao Pu was lying on the bed at this time, his face was withered, wrinkled, his eyes were weak, and it seemed that he would not live for two days.
Zhao Guangyi was by his side, whispering something to him, with a hint of relief and reluctance in his eyes.
Maybe even if it is a ruthless monarch like Zhao Guangyi, he also has some memories of Zhao Pu.
Zhao Pu's reputation as the first minister of the Great Song Dynasty is not blown, it can be said that if there is no him, the Great Song Dynasty would not be the Great Song Dynasty.
When Taizu Zhao Kuangyin was still inspected, Zhao Pu was his staff, and it was Zhao Pu who planned and calculated in every possible way to finally push Zhao Kuangyin to the throne.
After the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Pu became the first prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, ruling the world with half of the Analects, assisting Zhao Kuangyin to set the country and govern the people, which is also indispensable.
Even if Zhao Guangyi succeeded to the throne, he couldn't find a talent suitable for the position of prime minister for a while, so he also had to ask Zhao Pu to go out of the mountain, and Zhao Pu stayed in the phase again for more than ten years.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Zhao Kuangyin does not have Zhao Pu, he will not be the emperor, and if Zhao Guangyi does not have Zhao Pu, all the people in the world will not have enough food and clothing.
His credit is not the credit of a certain dynasty and a certain generation, but the credit of generations, Zhao Pu in history selected talents, commanded hundreds of officials, and passed on the concept of governing the country, which can be described as the founder of the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty can surpass the Tang Dynasty in the economic and cultural field, and even surpass all feudal dynasties, its roots are here in Zhao Pu, even if it is the famous prime minister Fan Zhongyan, Wen Yanbo, Wang Anshi and others, can only be regarded as his disciples and grandchildren.
What's more, with the crossing of Zhao Valley, Zhao Pu contributed to the Northern Expedition and solved the embarrassment of having no danger to defend the northern border for the Great Song Dynasty, which was also a great contribution to the present and the future.
Zhao Guangyi is sure that he is reluctant to give up on such a prime minister, although there is a lot of water in it, but it is also a proof that a person like him can be reluctant to you.
After Zhao Gu came in, Zhao Guangyi shifted his gaze to him and said, "Brother Huang, didn't you have something to tell Zhao Gu?" He's coming. ā
Zhao Pu also looked at Zhao Gu, with weakness in his eyes, and his heart was sour.
Once upon a time, what a beautiful scenery he was, although no one in the history books mythologized him, praised him, and even his reputation was not famous, but he was just burdened by the times.
If he is in the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang of the lupine scarf can compare to him?
If he is in Daming, can the clever Liu Bowen compare to him?
If he was in the Han Dynasty, Xiao He and Zhang Liang could compare to him?
It's a pity that the hero is late and the beauty is white-headed, and Rao is Zhao Pu can't avoid this hurdle.
"You seem to have had an epiphany?" Zhao Pu suddenly smiled and asked.
Zhao Gu did not hide it, and said: "Xiang Ye is right, it seems that Xiang Ye is a person who has passed through the heavens and latitudes, and it is indispensable to lie on the bed and be unable to move, I will wait for the future life to see this, naturally my heart is sour, maybe many years later, I will also face this step in the future life, so it seems that young people should enjoy themselves instead of going crazy." ā
Zhao Pu smiled: "You can understand this, it's very good, when the old man was young, he only thought about establishing great achievements, and he didn't regret it until this time. ā
Zhao Gu smiled. didn't speak, but Zhao Guangyi answered at this time: "Brother Huang has worked hard for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, I will definitely let people cure your illness, and you don't have to worry about your nephews, I will settle them down." ā
"Thank you, Emperor." Zhao Pu said weakly.
"Zhuo Guogong, the old man wants to discuss something with you." Zhao Pu said again.
"Xiangye even if he commanded."
Zhao Pu Lao had a meaningful smile on his face: "I heard Zhao Ling'er's father-in-law say, when you lived in seclusion in Jiangling Mansion, you were in a lakeside valley with very beautiful scenery, I wonder if the old man can be buried there after he dies?" ā
Zhao Pu really deserves to be Zhao Pu, he is still so calm in the face of life and death, he really deserves to be the first minister of the Great Song Dynasty.
Zhao Gu thought about it and felt that he really had no reason to refuse the request of a dying old man, so he agreed.
"Okay, thank you." Zhao Pu smiled again, and then said: "Zhuo Guogong, when you were in Chunhua for a year, you were able to make meritorious contributions several times, and then you led the Northern Expedition, but it was all operated by the old man, right?" If the old man asks you to give up all the credit at this time and be a rich man with peace of mind, are you willing? ā
Zhao Gu frowned slightly, looked up, but saw Zhao Pu glancing at him, signaling himself to pay attention to Zhao Guangyi on the side, Zhao Gu swept Zhao Guangyi's eyes again, and found that when Zhao Pu was speaking, he was pretending to look up at a painting in Zhao Pu's room, but in fact, his ears were pricked up, and it seemed that he was eavesdropping on the conversation between Zhao Pu and Zhao Gu.
Zhao Pu: What does this mean? Did he want me to say yes or no?
Or is he not asking for my opinion at all, but making a show for Zhao Guangyi?
But what good is it for him?
After thinking for a while, Zhao Gu decided to focus on stability, and said with a smile: "Xiangye said that he laughed, this world is the emperor's world, we are all the emperor's courtiers, and the emperor will naturally make the decision to stay, if the emperor agrees, let alone let me be a rich man, that is, let me go to the fields to plant rice and be a farmer, and I will gladly accept the order." ā
After Zhao Gu finished speaking, he glanced at Zhao Pu and found that his face showed appreciation, and he seemed to be very satisfied with Zhao Gu's answer, and Zhao Guangyi on the side also let out an irrepressible smile, seeing that it was vanity and making trouble again.
"Zhao Gu, what you said is quite in line with my intentions, I will make it clear to you, your family is in my hands, if you can act according to my will, I will naturally treat them well." Zhao Guangyi said.
