Chapter 232: Making a Decision

The mouth of the people, even more than the defense of Sichuan, Song Zhao because of this matter, can't help but worry, Gong Tianyao saw him like this, and was also very depressed, this matter is inseparable from the eldest prince, if you want to find evidence, you have to start with the eldest prince, but since the last time the eldest prince was detected, the guards of the eldest prince's mansion have become more strict, and even acquaintances have to go through many checkpoints when they ask to see, let alone sneak in.

Despite this, Song Zhao still took risks several times to sneak into the Great Prince's Mansion to find evidence, and was almost discovered several times, the most dangerous one was that he had approached the study, but he might as well have a secret weapon in the secret passage, fortunately Song Zhao escaped in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

After triggering the mechanism, it attracted a large number of guards, and Song Zhao was able to escape under the cover of his own people. Since then, Gong Tianyao has not allowed Song Zhao to take risks again, lest he not find out anything in the end, and fall for another scheme of the eldest prince, and add one more crime.

Song Zhao was silent, her expression was solemn, Gong Tianyao was a little unbearable as she spoke, she knew in her heart that Song Zhao didn't care about her safety like this, just to get evidence that could convict the eldest prince, so that she could clear their grievances, but if it went on like this, the development of the situation would only become more and more unfavorable to them.

She pondered the words in her mind for a while, and then she comforted her: "Don't worry too much, the father and the queen mother are still helping us speak, and we can still delay a little time, let's think about what to do." ”

Song Zhao raised his eyes to look at her, and his smile was a little bitter: "You don't know what the situation is with the queen mother." ”

After hearing this, Gong Tianyao could only silently lower her head and didn't know what to say, she was sure of herself, she barely cheered up, and said: "Anyway, the queen's words must be listened to more or less, and it can be delayed for as many hours as possible, there is really no way, don't we have another way?" ”

Her eyes were firm, and when Song Zhao saw her so resolute and calm, he finally showed a faint smile and said slowly: "You're right." ”

Gong Tianyao smiled: "Okay, let's rest early, there will be an early dynasty tomorrow." ”

Song Zhao nodded and sent her back.

Today is the first day of the new year, it is the day when the emperor stays in the queen's palace as usual, the queen is naturally serving diligently, and seeing that the emperor's face is not very good, he also loves to ignore his words, and his face is full of displeasure, how does the queen not know what the emperor is so called. Even if he knew that the emperor would be even more displeased when he opened his mouth at this time, for the sake of Song Zhao and Gong Tianyao, he couldn't pretend not to know, and persuaded: "The emperor doesn't just listen to those absurd rumors, the two children of Zhao'er and Tianyao have suffered a lot, and they have finally survived to this day, and it is too late to cherish them, how can they start that kind of thought?" ”

When the emperor heard this, he glanced at her coldly, and his voice was a little cold: "Does it sound like the queen knows the two of them very well?" ”

The queen was stunned for the emperor's action, and her heart sank, feeling that the emperor not only didn't believe that Song Zhao and Gong Tianyao were innocent, but even she was suspicious just by saying one more word for the two of them.

She pretended not to hear, just smiled, waited for the emperor to change into his bedclothes, and said: "What was Song Zhao like in the previous dynasty, can the emperor still be unclear, Tianyao often comes to me, the queen mother has always praised her, praising her for being smart and clever, although her temperament is too lively, but she is also measured and dignified in major matters, how many of those people outside have been in contact with her?" There are also false rumors based on the stories I have heard. ”

"If she's really fine, where did she come from to tell those people to pass it on?" The emperor's tone was stern, and he seemed to be angry, and the queen secretly said in her heart that it was bad, the emperor was clearly not dealing with herself, although she knew in her heart that the emperor had always disliked herself, but in the end, she was responsible for the name of the queen, and now it seems that she can't even help with a word.

The queen realized this, so she was silent, the emperor seemed to realize that he was too obvious, and only said lightly: "I have been worried about those words outside recently, and many ministers have come to speak, it is really annoying, if you just say this, don't take it too seriously, as long as there is evidence to prove that they are innocent, I will naturally not embarrass them." ”

"Yes." The queen agreed, and helped the emperor to go to bed and rest.

In the next few days, nothing was found, Song Zhao was much calmer than his previous worried state of mind, and during this period, he had secretly transferred the property under his name, but such a big project could not be completed for a while.

Gong Tianyao learned about this from him, and was inexplicably a little happy, and a little expectant, if he could really leave the capital like this, it would not be a good thing.

Song Zhao looked at her with a smile on her eyebrows, unlike the sad face a few days ago, and said with a smile: "I have one more thing to tell you." ”

"What's the matter?" Gong Tianyao was very interested, and vaguely felt that it was a good thing.

"I want to enter the palace and ask my father to go to the fiefdom and leave the capital."

"Really?! Have you really figured it out?! We're leaving so soon?! Gong Tianyao asked three times in surprise, and the whole person was full of energy.

Song Zhao couldn't help but laugh: "Can this kind of thing still lie to you?" ”

Gong Tianyao clapped her hands and shouted: "Then don't I want my dream to come true?" ”

"Yes, yes, when I see my father and the emperor, the holy decree will come down, and we will leave here." There was a hint of relieved calm in Song Zhao's tone.

That night, Song Zhao entered the palace to face the saint, and after saluting, he explained his intention to the emperor: "Father, the son has something to ask for, I hope you can agree." ”

The emperor glanced at him and was very cold: "What do you want to say?" ”

"Erchen has been weak and sick since childhood, although it has gradually improved in recent years, but compared with ordinary people, it is still dwarfed, and he deals with official affairs on weekdays, and he also has more than enough strength and is not enough, and he is very guilty in his heart, and many ministers also have a lot of complaints about his sons because of this matter, so he hopes that it is better to take this opportunity to leave the capital, go to the fiefdom, and hand over the affairs of his sons to his more competent brothers, and his sons can also take this opportunity to recuperate."

"Do you really think so?" The surprise in the emperor's eyes was obvious. If Song Zhaozhen wanted to leave the capital, his previous speculations about him would be self-defeating, and instead of staying in the capital, he would invite himself to go to the fiefdom, which an ambitious prince would never do.

"It's true, I hope that my father will take pity on his son's frailty and agree to let his son go to the fief." Song Zhao kowtowed and replied solemnly.

"In that case, there's no reason why I shouldn't agree to you." The emperor said slowly: "When the fiefdom is divided and the title is prepared, let's set off." ”

"The son bows to thank his father." Song Zhao bowed again, making a sincere and frightened appearance.
