Chapter 124: Exploring the Cause in Deokshou Palace

Deoksugung Palace has always been said to be the forbidden place of the imperial palace, because this is the residence of Emperor Taishang Zhao Go.

On weekdays, in addition to the current emperor Zhao You, there is only Zhao Gou's grandson Ye Yu.

After Xiaozong Zhao You left the imperial study with resentment, he drove directly to this Deokshou Palace. Zhao You didn't want to come to Deshou Palace to talk to Zhao Gou, but there was something he needed to ask the titular father for.

Today's Deokshou Palace gradually has the appearance of withering, not that the scenery in this palace is withering, but that the original vitality in this palace is missing.

Because just half a year ago, the Empress Dowager Wu passed away due to illness, and now only Zhao Gou is left in this Deshou Palace. Although there are countless palace maids and eunuchs around, the departure of the person next to the pillow is a big blow after all.

Since Wu's death, Zhao Gou, who is over sixty years old, has been silent all day long, and occasionally only when Ye Yu comes to visit, he will have a little laughter and words.

Zhao Gou was lying on the rocking chair by the lotus pond at the moment, closing his eyes and enjoying a moment of tranquility in the sun.

Suddenly, when he heard that Xiaozong Zhao You had come to ask for peace, the rickety recliner suddenly stopped, but Zhao Gou's brows, which had been white and sparse, wrinkled slightly.

First, he slowly opened his cloudy eyes, and then asked the waiter beside him: "Why is he here, today is my grandson's wedding, and it will end so soon?" ”

"Official...... Lord Ye's marriage...... The old slave heard that it was suspended......"

"What's paused? What is the reason" When Zhao Gou heard this, he immediately straightened up in a little surprise.

The inner eunuch hesitated and said: "The old slave is not clear, Your Majesty xià ......"

"Let him in"

Zhao Gou waved his hand and motioned for the inner servant to pass on the message, he knew that he couldn't ask anything from the eunuchs around him. So Fang was still straight, and slowly lay down again.

After a short time, Xiaozong Zhao Youbian walked lightly into this garden.

Before coming closer, he first gave a very respectful salute to Zhao Gou: "Yuan Yong has asked his father for peace."

Zhao You used the gift of father and son to call himself in his own words, which was enough to show his respect for this titular father.

"Sit down" Zhao Gou didn't open his eyes, still wandering gracefully on the recliner.

"Yes"

After Zhao You took his seat, Zhao Gou opened his eyes slightly and asked, "Yuan Yong, today is the wedding day of my good grandson, how can you, as the person presiding over the wedding, have the leisure to come to me?" ”

"Back to my father's words, as for Ye Yu's marriage, because there was a change during the period, it ......"

"What can happen beyond the marriage event? This marriage was personally decided by you and King Fu, and now that you have put the wedding date on hold in public, have you considered the consequences of this matter? ”

"Motoyoung has considered ......"

"Considered? Since you have thought about it, why do you still do such a thing that is unremarkable? First of all, King Gong framed him when he got married, which caused the beautiful marriage to come to naught."

"Now that the years have passed, Ye Yu is getting married again, but you deliberately obstruct this big wedding. I want to know today, why did your father and son successively prevent Ye Yu from getting married, because he was the grandson of Yu who I personally recognized, the emperor, did you take me in your eyes when you acted like this? ”

When Zhao Gou said that he was excited, he couldn't help but pant a little.

Although Ye Yu is only the grandson of Yu who Zhao Gou unintentionally recognizes, because he has a deep contact with Ye Yu, this relationship is far deeper than that of Zhao You and his grandson Qingwang Zhao Kai and Gongwang Zhao Han.

The emperor's family is the most ruthless, not to mention that Zhao You sitting in front of him is not his Zhao Gou's parent, even if he is flesh and blood, he may not be much closer.

This is the sadness of the royal heirs, in the long river of history, most of the emperor's heirs have dozens, and even when the emperor dies of old age, he doesn't know what his son looks like.

The only thing I can remember is perhaps the string of familiar and unfamiliar names.

Because of the imperial power, people have become alienated and restrained, and Zhao Gou, who retired to Deoksugung Palace in his later years, actually lacks this precious family affection.

Everyone in the palace is submissive to him, and only Ye Yu is respectful and gives him a rare kind of family affection and warmth. Whenever Ye Yu came to Deshou Palace, he could hear his laughter.

So in Zhao Gou's heart now, he likes Ye Yu's grandson very much. It is precisely because of this that Ye Yu cannot be allowed to be half wronged.

was scolded by Zhao Gou's head and face, but Xiaozong Zhao You was extremely aggrieved in his heart, and said that he couldn't blame me for everything, my own son was too late to get married, how could he intentionally stop it?

He was extremely aggrieved in his heart, but he said solemnly on his face: "Father, this matter is indeed mishandled by Yuan Yong, but there is actually a reason why this marriage has been put on hold for the time being......"

As soon as Zhao You's words fell, the chamberlain Liu Wuyue directly presented the letter in front of him.

Since Liang Ke participated in the rebellion and was slashed to death by a lone wolf, this vacated position was directly held by Liu Wuyue.

At that time, Liu Wuyue was just a eunuch who was running around, but now he has ascended to the highest position in the Ministry of Internal Affairs in just a few years, and he is also envious of many people

Zhao You took the letter, and then respectfully handed it to Zhao Gou: "Father, this is a letter sent by Emperor Wan Yan Yong, saying that he wants to marry my Great Song Dynasty, and the object of this marriage specifies the candidate, which is Ye Yu......"

"Oh? And such a thing? ”

When Zhao Gou heard the word Jin Guo, his originally majestic expression suddenly became a little dignified. It can be seen that the word Jin Guo has left an indelible imprint on Zhao Gou's psychology.

After Zhao Gou opened the letter and read through it, he said to himself with a strange expression: "Marriage jade pendant? ”

"Does my father know the origin of this jade pendant?"

Zhao You's eagerness, Zhao Gou didn't care too much, but changed the topic and asked, "Yu'er really has this marriage jade pendant?" ”

"It's my father, please take a look," Zhao You said, took out the jade pendant from his sleeve and presented it to Zhao Gou.

And when Zhao Gou saw the jade pendant engraved with the word 'Xi, he fell into a momentary distraction, and then held the jade pendant tightly, took a deep breath and said to himself: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't think ......."

"Father's ......"

"No wonder Yu'er is excellent in calligraphy and painting, I should have thought of it a long time ago, if it weren't for the true biography of strange people like Wang Ximeng, how could he have achieved such a good apprentice......"

"Father, just now in the imperial study, Ye Qing's family also told about his mentorship Wang Ximeng, and when his teacher passed away, he left the jade pendant to him, and strictly ordered that he would not say anything about his mentorship in front of anyone in the future, and if it weren't for the importance of the matter, as well as the many persecutions of the ministers, I believe he would not have said it......"
