Chapter Eighty-Nine: Flirting
Third uncle?
Zhao Dezhao was stunned, thinking about why Shi Wei had come to King Jin again.
"The official position of the third uncle is naturally the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion." Zhao Dezhao replied suspiciously.
The corners of Shi Wei's mouth raised a sly smile, "The King of Jin has served as the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion for more than ten years, and his power has been rooted in Gyeonggi, if His Majesty moves the capital to Luoyang, will it not uproot the forces that the King of Jin has painstakingly managed, and the biggest beneficiary of this is none other than His Royal Highness." ”
Shi Wei finally revealed the true purpose of his plan.
Zhao Guangyi's power has become so huge that it is difficult for the Son of Heaven to control, if he continues to indulge in this way, I am afraid that the scene of history will repeat itself.
Now that Shi Wei is riding a tiger, in order to keep his glory and wealth, he must help Zhao Dezhao defeat Zhao Guangyi, a powerful opponent.
After thinking about it, it was Pan Zisu who gave him inspiration.
Since Zhao Guangyi's arrogant capital comes from the forces he has cultivated for many years as the governor of Kaifeng, then, if you want to defeat Zhao Guangyi, you must get rid of the minions entrenched around him.
Moving the capital to Luoyang and starting everything over again is not just a high-sounding but once and for all strategy.
When Shi Wei pierced this layer of window paper, Zhao Dezhao's expression immediately changed.
Shi Wei knew what Zhao Dezhao was worried about, the second prince surnamed Ge Renhou was still worried about some so-called family affection.
"Since ancient times, it has been the right way to pass on the throne from father to son, and only when it is absolutely necessary will there be a father to a brother. Now that His Royal Highness is old, it is a matter of course to be appointed as a prince, but in recent years, the King of Jin has always regarded himself as a prince, can His Highness turn a blind eye to this? ”
Zhao Dezhao's brows condensed slightly, obviously Shi Wei's words poked at his pain.
Although Zhao Dezhao is benevolent, this does not mean that he is stupid, let alone that he does not covet the throne.
His previous humble gesture was not so much out of benevolence, but because he had always subconsciously believed that as the eldest son of the Son of Heaven, he would be the rightful heir to the throne in the future, and he didn't have to worry about anyone thinking about him.
But in recent years, he has become more and more aware that things are by no means as simple as he thinks, and his third uncle is obviously not a person who keeps to himself.
Shi Wei's words just pointed out Zhao Dezhao's thoughts.
After pondering for a moment, Zhao Dezhao sighed: "I don't see the matter of the third uncle, it's just that I want the stability of the country, and the most taboo thing is that the royal family cannibalizes each other and fights for power and profit, and I really don't want to have a dispute with the third uncle for this." ”
"Your Highness's words are wrong."
Shi Wei immediately denied Dezhao's words, and said earnestly: "His Royal Highness has a benevolent heart, so he will naturally think like this, but I look at the gloomy Jin Wang's city, but he may not have such a generous heart as His Highness." If His Royal Highness ascends to the throne in the future, he will naturally treat King Jin well, but if the throne is taken away by King Jin, I am afraid that His Royal Highness will lose more than just the throne......"
Shi Wei remembered that in history, Zhao Guangyi's Northern Expedition to Youyan failed, and the generals in the army did not see him, so they discussed the idea of appointing Dezhao who accompanied the army as the prince, but later Zhao Guangyi knew about it and thought it was jealous.
After the end of the war, Zhao Guangyi did not give rewards to the soldiers according to the custom, and Dezhao asked for rewards for the soldiers, but was ridiculed by Zhao Guangyi.
In the end, Dezhao became ill with grief and finally died young.
Although these histories are not necessarily true, they are not necessarily groundless, since Shi Wei came into contact with Zhao Guangyi, after understanding his personality, he has become more and more convinced that those circulating histories are real.
Of course, Shi Wei naturally couldn't talk to Zhao Dezhao about these concerns.
Despite this, Shi Wei's warning words were enough to shock Dezhao's vigilance.
This second prince, who is full of poetry and books, is familiar with history, and naturally knows the fate of those who lost in the battle for the throne in the previous dynasties.
Most of those who fail will not die well.
Inside the secret room, there was silence.
Zhao Dezhao stood up and paced in the dimly lit room, his changing expression showing that there was a fierce battle going on in his heart.
Do you continue to endure it, or do you start to resist?
Zhao Dezhao had to make a decision, because he didn't have much time left.
After a long time, Zhao Dezhao's tight brows suddenly dispersed.
Shi Wei saw a bit of fierceness from this benevolent second prince that he had never seen before.
Shi Wei secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, Zhao Dezhao angrily slapped the case and said sharply: "I read filial piety and repeatedly tolerated it, but who knows that the third uncle doesn't know what to do, blindly persecution, if I, Zhao Dezhao, don't fight back, wouldn't I have no blood surname at all, how can I be worthy of being the son of my father!" ”
Shi Wei was overjoyed.
After the joy, Shi Wei maintained a rare calmness.
He pondered for a moment and said: "Your Highness has this determination, and the lower officials are also very pleased, but regarding the matter of moving the capital, the lower officials feel that it is better not for His Royal Highness to play to His Majesty. ”
Zhao Dezhao thought for a while and said, "Do you mean, instead of a minister who is close to us, to play to my father and emperor on my behalf?" ”
Shi Wei shook his head and said: "This is not appropriate, no matter who it is, on the first table of this capital move, King Jin will inevitably think that this is His Royal Highness at war against him, and now this is the time, and it is not the time to make it clear to him." ”
"What should you do, then?" Zhao Dezhao was a little helpless.
Shi Wei said: "If Your Majesty can give birth to the idea of moving the capital by himself, His Royal Highness and the lower officials will be attached to him, then our situation will be more active." ”
"Let my father take the initiative to give birth to the idea of moving the capital? I'm afraid that's a bit of a trick to do. Zhao Dezhao sighed.
Shi Wei also stood up at this time, learning from Dezhao's appearance, and paced for a long time.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up.
With a plan, Shi Wei smirked and told Dezhao about the plan.
Zhao Dezhao couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
After listening to it, Zhao Dezhao praised it even more: "Yuanzhi, you can think of the strategy of moving the capital first, and now you think of such a clever plan, your resourcefulness, I think it is not inferior to Zhao Xiang, let you be a mere Hanlin medical officer, it is really condescending." ”
Listening to Zhao Dezhao's heartfelt admiration, Shi Wei felt a little proud in his heart.
However, listening to his tone, it seems that Shi Wei has the intention of abandoning medicine and politics.
Shi Wei immediately said humbly: "Your Highness has won the award, Wei is just a little clever, how can he get such great wisdom from His Highness." Moreover, Wei Sheng's surname is lazy, he is a medical officer, and it is the most suitable for treating diseases and saving people, but if I am asked to do something else, I am afraid that I will be annoyed and annoyed to death. ”
Shi Wei is not hypocritical, this statement is indeed sincere.
Being an official is not the goal, the purpose is to be chic.
Treating diseases and saving people in such leisure time as now, secretly making suggestions, and low-key control of the situation, this kind of drinking is far from the pleasure of those high-ranking officials who seem to be beautiful.
When Zhao Dezhao heard Shi Wei's words, he temporarily put Fang Sheng's thoughts to rest.
He laughed and said, "Others are thinking about being a big official, but Yuanzhi you can be so indifferent to fame and fortune, it's really commendable." ”
Zhao Dezhao was amazed again, and Shi Wei followed with humility.
After a few words, the two made up their minds, and Shi Wei took his leave.
After coming out of the palace of Wugong County, Shi Wei was in a happy mood, remembering that Xiao Zhouhou's residence was nearby, so Shi Wei stopped by to visit.
Because he was afraid of being targeted by the eyeliner, Shi Wei deliberately walked around the nearby street a few times, and only when he saw that there was no sentry before he entered his private house through the back door.
Since Shi Wei brought Xiao Zhouhou to Bianjing, because he was busy with everything, he couldn't find time to visit often, and only entrusted a few henchmen to take care of Xiao Zhouhou.
At this time, it is rare to come here, and Xiao Zhouhou is naturally very happy.
In the stone pavilion in the garden, when drinking herbal tea, Xiao Zhouhou came with the support of Xiao Yun.
Looking up, I saw that she had combed her hairstyle that was popular in Bianjing today, wearing a white shirt with a pink bandeau inside, lined with a snow-like breast, which was extraordinarily smooth and flawless.
She shook her slender waist lightly, with a shallow smile on her face, and came so slowly that Shi Wei only looked a little distracted.
"What are you looking at, nerd."
Xiao Zhouhou laughed, and in the sentence "nerd", there was a bit of flirting between lovers.
Shi Wei's heart fluttered slightly, and he smiled: "Niangniang's country is beautiful and fragrant, who else can I look at besides Niangniang." ”
Although Xiao Zhouhou has long been accustomed to being praised by others, when he heard Shi Wei's praise, there was still a slight halo on his beautiful face, and in such a shallow smile, there was even a hint of joy.
"You, Xiao Yun is still here, what are you talking nonsense?" When Xiao Zhou complained, he was already seated.
Shi Wei was stunned for a moment, and said busily: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and Miss Xiaoyun has become more and more standard, and she is really beautiful." ”
Xiao Yun heard Shi Wei praise him, and his eyes suddenly flashed with joy.
She half-covered her face with a silk handkerchief, and said embarrassedly: "In front of Niangniang, where do I dare to call me beautiful, Master Shi, you are deliberately sarcastic about me." ”
Shi Wei immediately said: "How dare I, as the so-called black is near ink, and red is close to Zhu, Xiaoyun girl accompanies Niangniang all day long, and over time, of course, it has changed more and more." ”
His praise can be described as killing two birds with one stone, praising Xiao Yun at the same time, and praising Xiao Zhouhou again.
Women's love of beauty is eternal, and no amount of praise for them will not be too much.
After a few words, only the master and servant of Xiao Zhou were overjoyed.
In a moment, Shi Wei adjusted the atmosphere to a harmonious one.
When Xiao Zhou was happy, Shi Wei asked: "The customs and climate of Bianjing are very different from those of Jinling, I wonder if Niangniang is still suitable for life here?" ”
"It's okay, but there's nothing wrong with it." Xiao Zhouhou said, with a little sadness between his eyebrows, and sighed: "It's just that I stay in this mansion all day, there are no idle playthings, it's too boring." ”
Although Bianjing is prosperous, Shi Wei doesn't dare to let her walk around the streets more, and living in this mansion for a long time is not as good as Jinling Palace, so it is natural for Xiao Zhou to feel bored.
Hearing her complaint, Shi Wei's eyes rolled a few times, and he suddenly had an idea.
He then smiled and said, "If my mother is bored, I have something to help my mother pass this boring time." ”
