Chapter 284: Slowly Drawing
"The mother concubine is right, it is true that her son is too worried, but this matter should not be quiet now, and wait for her son to succeed to the throne and then slowly help her to the throne."
Zhao Rui only kept her by his side at first because of Xie Jiayao's beauty, but after staying with her for so long, she is now pregnant with her first child in her belly.
He still has some feelings for Xie Jiayao, and he still thinks about giving her a concubine when the time comes, and he can't let his first child have a biological mother with a humble birth and a low status.
The concubine obviously thought of this too, and didn't say anything, just asked Zhao Rui to be cautious during this time, and not to be caught by those historians.
They are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and when the time comes, it will definitely make others guess Zhao Rui's character, and nothing can happen at this juncture.
"Don't worry, mother, my son will definitely not cause anything during this time, and he will definitely stay in the palace in peace, just waiting for the summons of the mother."
Zhao Rui said very carefully, and a smile appeared on the concubine's well-maintained face, she has been by the emperor's side every day these days, although she is a lot tired, but that tiredness does not affect her beauty at all.
Although the appearance of the concubine is not as captivating as Concubine Rong, she can be regarded as one of the best beauties, otherwise the emperor would not have named her a concubine.
Zhao Rui talked to the concubine for a while, and then drove back to his palace.
As soon as he went back, he asked Xie Jiayao to come over, Xie Jiayao had been overthinking these days, and she had lost a whole circle, but she had a kind of sick beauty.
Zhao Rui held her in his arms and touched her slightly bulging lower abdomen, "Did the child kick you?" He asked gently, his attitude towards Xie Jiayao was much better than that of his own imperial concubine.
Xie Jiayao shook her head, grabbed Zhao Rui's sleeve and shook it slightly: "Your Highness, I don't know what the concubine said?" ”
Although she got her wish and conceived Zhao Rui's child, he never refused to let go and gave himself a name, and now he can barely be regarded as a common room for him, not even a concubine.
Thinking of this, Xie Jiayao's face became even paler, she was afraid that she would be treated as a waste child at that time, and now that the fate of the entire Xie family was in her hands, she couldn't tolerate the slightest mistake.
"The mother concubine said, when I ascend the throne, I don't want to do whatever I want you to do, don't be depressed all day long for this little thing."
Zhao Rui comforted her, a little worried that her first child would have any accidents, if she was still as stubborn as now.
"Thank you, Your Highness, as long as Your Highness says this, the concubine will naturally have no regrets." Xie Jiayao's eyes were slightly tearful, and she looked at Zhao Rui with bright eyes, and was looked at by her with such eyes, Zhao Rui had already been distracted, but he couldn't move his hand, so he could only leave disappointed.
Zhao Rui returned to the study and looked at the folds for a while, only to feel that these twists and turns were really boring, and the same content was back and forth.
He was impatient to read it carefully, and put it down after reading two pages casually, anyway, these are all done by someone who has helped him since he was a child, so why should he do it himself.
With a wave of his hand, Zhao Rui summoned a few of his right-hand men and asked them to help him deal with all these twists and turns, and he went to find other singers and dancers.
In the past, when the emperor had not had an accident, he didn't dare to casually hand over these things to others to do, and they were all handed over to Gu Qin, who he trusted the most.
But now that he no longer trusts Gu Qin, and the emperor is about to die, he doesn't have to worry so much at all, anyway, it is impossible for the emperor to know these things.
Zhao Rui quickly put aside these concerns, and indulged in the gentle township of beauties, and had long forgotten the words of the concubine as wind in his ears.
At the same time, Zhao Jun listened to the information reported by the people under him, and the corners of his lips showed a smile that was bound to win, he had suspected that Zhao Rui was not the way he appeared from a long time ago.
Although Zhao Rui was praised by them as a genius boy who knew everything about Wen Taowu, Zhao Jun once tested him, Zhao Rui couldn't even make a poem, and those articles couldn't have been written by him.
He quickly sent someone to investigate the matter, and got an unexpected result, whether all the articles he had handed over to the emperor over the years had been ghostwritten by others.
And this other person was not Shi Chen, who couldn't be named, it turned out to be his cousin Gu Qin, and the answer he got made him a little shocked.
He said why no one has reported Zhao Rui for so many years, because the person who wrote these articles for him is basically the same front as him, so it is naturally impossible to betray him.
Zhao Jun didn't dare to challenge the relationship between the two of them easily, after all, in the eyes of the outside world, they were as close as brothers, but the events of the previous two days completely broke his opinion.
The two brothers have long been at odds, and now Zhao Rui is even letting other people review the folds for him, and he is not afraid that when the matter is revealed, how to explain it, it seems that he really thinks that he is only one step away from that position, so he acts without scruples.
"Prepare pen and paper for me."
He instructed his entourage, and now Zhao Rui personally sent such a big handle to his hands, so he naturally wouldn't live up to his kindness.
Zhao Jun quickly wrote a letter, asking people to send this letter to the Pingyang Palace, which had to be delivered to Gu Qin in person, and he believed that after reading this letter, Gu Qin knew how to make the best choice.
When Gu Qin received this letter, he had just finished practicing his sword, and Chu Yin was wiping his sweat, but his entourage delivered a letter to him.
He didn't open the letter and read it carefully at the first time, but let everyone around him retreat, even Chu Yin.
In matters related to the court, Chu Yin never embarrassed him, he took the initiative to withdraw every time, and never asked a word, which made Gu Qin very relieved.
Gu Qin opened the letter, and after reading all the contents, he already had a clear answer in his heart.
Now that his cousin no longer trusts him, when he sits in that position, Pingyang Wangfu is the first target he wants to get rid of, and he must not sit still anymore.
He didn't expect that the mysterious army turned out to be Zhao Jun's, after all, everyone didn't think of this answer, and most of the guesses were the four princes.
It seems that this Nine Emperor Princes is the deepest among them, and to his surprise, the Nine Emperor Princes obviously haven't seen him, but they actually took the initiative to tell him this secret, and this heavy trust made him a little speechless.
Gu Qin immediately asked people to prepare pen and paper, and wrote a handwritten letter for someone to send to the palace.
