Chapter 791: Embarrassment

Just when Zhu Baoshi thought that he was going to stand like this until he was old, he finally heard a voice from above.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ How does the little grandson in the Huayin Marquis Mansion look like this time? ”

Zhu Baoshi suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, and after two or three breaths, he figured it out and said: "Huayin Hou is born decently, the little boy can eat and sleep, I heard that his body is very healthy, and there are very few doctors in the hospital." ”

He couldn't tell whether Empress Dowager Zhang's sentence "how does she look" was about appearance or body, and because Huayin Marquis was a branch of Emperor Taizu, if he said that he looked very good, he didn't know if he would be tabooed by the saints.

This time, Zhu Baoshi handed over the excerpt, there are dozens of clan names involved, some are in the capital, and some are away all the year round.

Unlike Zhao Rui, Empress Dowager Zhang's questions seemed to have no rules to follow, often in the south, south, west, and north, each pointing a little, and Zhu Baoshi was about to expand to answer, but he was interrupted, and the question jumped to another direction.

After a few times, he gradually figured it out.

Empress Dowager Zhang asked all the details, the same thing, never put more effort, she already had a number in her heart before asking, but it was just to confirm her thoughts with the same person.

Compared with the very loud King Ji and the son of the King of Qin, although Huayin Hou also belongs to the royal lineage, he has always been a cold stove, seeing that the Empress Dowager Zhang asked more and more details, even when the child learned to call Daddy, even when he could walk, whether he had whooping cough, how much he was in size, it was like taking a hook to hook the tail of a snail shell.

Zhu Baoshi could answer some of them, and some of them couldn't, and when he went out of the vertical arch hall, he didn't even stop for a moment, and went straight to find pen and ink, and recorded the one hundred and eighty questions asked by the Empress Dowager Zhang one by one.

He no longer cares about the Imperial City Division, but fortunately, he still has a difference on his body, and finally entered the warehouse where the archives of the Imperial City Division are stored, and he doesn't need the help of others, and he turns over the mountains of scrolls by himself.

After Zhao Rui's big trip, Zhu Baoshi did not return to the scenery of the past, this time he did not appear for most of the day, and no one even noticed, and when he came out of the warehouse at night, he stood in front of the door of the vertical arch hall again and again with a newly written fold, because there was no summons, and no one helped to pass it on.

He waited from the beginning of the time to the second hour, and his whole body was already half frozen and half stiff, so he waited for the Empress Dowager Zhang to come out and greeted him by the lights that came from afar.

***

In addition to the fold handed over by Zhu Baoshi, the case file of the Kyoto Prefecture is generally spread on the table in front of the Empress Dowager Zhang.

This volume is an inch thick, the narrative is rigorous, the words are crisp, and there is no prevarication and perfunctory, and there are drawings attached to it, which clearly explain the ins and outs of the attack on Sun Zhaohe that day.

The main culprit has already confessed, and the mastermind Qin Huifang only received a little punishment, and he also pleaded guilty to the law, and the human and physical evidence are all pointed to the one in the palace, as long as he confesses, the case can be closed.

With these pieces of evidence in front of her, even if Empress Dowager Zhang always believed that Zhao Duo was stupid and would never be able to make such a powerful situation, she couldn't help but put a question mark in her heart: Could it be that this son has really grown so much when he didn't know it?

The throne can't be vacant for too long, that is, a piece of wood is placed on the dragon chair to occupy the seat, and there is also a wooden pestle there.

No matter what the final case is, now Zhao Duo's reputation is bad, and it is no longer possible for the four kings to be in the same lineage, and the longer the interval is, the more sober the Empress Dowager Zhang is, and she already has other plans in her heart, she only feels that Zhao Hao has another inside story this time, and sooner or later there will be an accident, and there will be endless troubles at that time, so I don't want to help him up.

Holding the scroll in her hand, Empress Dowager Zhang suppressed her anger for a long time, and finally couldn't help but slam it on the table.

The thick booklet smashed on the wooden table, making a "bang" sound, covering the low scolding of the Empress Dowager Zhang.

Cui Yongchen was so close that he could only vaguely hear the words "ignorant shaft", and he didn't know who he was scolding.

When Empress Dowager Zhang came back from the Vertical Arch Palace, she announced that she saw Zhu Baoshi again, and after reading the documents for a long time, it was already late. Although she was annoyed, she was not confused, and there were still rules in her behavior, and after a while, she pressed down her breath and washed herself and went to bed without mentioning it.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day was the Great Dynasty Meeting, Cui Yongchen counted the hours, and saw that there was still tea left, so he began to send the little yellow men to prepare in advance, but before the people were cleaned up, there was movement on the bed - it turned out that Empress Dowager Zhang didn't need to be called, and her family had woken up.

At one moment, everyone hurriedly came forward to serve with pots and pots, and some people brought snacks and hot noodle soup, cooking cakes and other things.

The Great Dynasty will take a long time, although it is still early at the moment, and she is really not hungry, but the Empress Dowager Zhang can't help but eat something non-soup and non-water to cushion her stomach - she is old, even if she tries her best to maintain it, her face looks the same, and her kidneys are still not as good as before.

She got up early today, more than enough time, holding a cooking cake, only halfway through eating, suddenly heard a small noise outside, not long after, a small yellow door rushed in, bowed down and stood down, and said loudly: "Sage, news has come from the Wende Palace, His Royal Highness King Ji has just woken up!" ”

***

There was already a mess in the Wende Temple.

Sun Zhaohe shouted outside the door: "Someone! Come! ”

The rest of the medical officers in the hall stood three or four steps away in unison, and shouted outside, "Come on! There are assassins! ”

Zhao Hao half leaned on his back cushion.

His cheeks were thin, his lips and face were pale, and his left hand still had the strength to press his right hand to suppress the blood oozing from his wrist.

On the ground in front of the bed was a small yellow door covered in blood, who was still half-grasping the cover on Zhao Hao's body with one hand, and the other hand was already hanging on the ground.

Three or four guards held long sticks and pestled him hard, and one of them tore his sleeve and wrapped his hand, grabbed the yellow door's legs and feet and dragged it out, pulling out a trail of blood on the ground.

- Even so, the other party still did not react.

Zhao Hao coughed violently a few times, and said in a hoarse voice: "This ...... Where is this palace man? ”

He was in a coma for many days, and when he woke up, his tongue was a little knotted, and his words were a little stumbling.

The palace people who were originally serving in the side hall had already hid to the side at this time, and only a few guards were left to get closer, and some other medical officers did not dare to move forward.

Hearing his question, no one could answer, and after a while, someone timidly stepped forward, looked at the body on the ground, and said, "It seems that the ...... who originally served in the Wende Palace"

Zhao Hao sat up for a while, and a thin layer of cold sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

The smashed porcelain bowls, the splashes of medicinal juice, and the handful of powdered medicine of unknown origin were still on the ground, and no one dared to touch them.

Zhao Hao hesitated for a moment, and said in a dumb voice: "This matter ...... Have you returned to the Queen Mother? ”

A medical officer reminded: "Today's court meeting, the Queen Mother is still in the Daqing Palace. ”

Zhao Hao reacted at this time, he closed his eyes and shook his head, opened them again, and asked, "What's wrong with me?" ”

Then the attendant, who was accustomed to waiting, stepped forward and leaned over to say a few words.

Zhao Hao frowned when he heard this, leaned on his head and said, "This matter is still left to the Queen Mother to come back and investigate......

The wound on his hand was not too serious, but he was smashed by the porcelain bowl, and after pressing it for so long, the bleeding had already stopped, so he pointed to the little yellow door held by the guards and said: "Search what else is on this person's body, and while the medical officers are still there, they can be found out together." ”

The guards did not take anyone away, but only went to the palace to strip the clothes of the little yellow door as they said, and before they could take off their coats, they only heard a soft "pop" sound, and a small cloth bag had fallen out of the cuff on the right and fell to the ground.

The size of the cloth bag is inferior to the palm of a baby's hand, and the color of the material is ordinary, and there are no stitches at all, and it looks inconspicuous, as if it is just the owner's own private sewing to hold some miscellaneous things.

The leading janissary hurriedly picked it up and presented it to the head of the bed.

Zhao Hao avoided it like thunder, and refused to pick it up, only made a weak appearance, and said to Sun Zhaohe, who was standing on the side and did not move: "Please also take a look at the medicine." ”

At this time, the Empress Dowager Zhang was not there, and no medical officer in the field was willing to come forward, Sun Zhaohe had the intention to hide, but who expected that he was named, so he had to stand up, forcibly pulled the people on the side and stepped forward, and carefully took the cloth bag.

The cloth bag contained a black-brown powder, which looked no different from the spilled on the ground, and when you got closer, it was easy to make out that even the smell was the sameβ€”sweet with a faint fishy smell.

This smell is very pleasant on its own, but once it is mixed with the medicinal juice, it can be overwhelmed by the strong medicinal smell.

"What is it?" Zhao Hao couldn't help but ask.

Sun Zhaohe shook his head and said without changing his face: "Based on his eyes alone, Xia Guan didn't dare to assert it, for fear that it would be a few things mixed together, and it would be easy to say it if he had to take a closer look." ”

Another medical officer also hurriedly followed, and before he could say a word, someone suddenly passed the word outside, and after a while, Princess Ji hurriedly walked in with her two younger daughters and younger son.

Before she approached, the youngest son who followed behind had already rushed forward, threw himself on the bed, called "Dad" to Zhao Hao, and cried wow.

The two daughters walked more slowly, and they also wore handkerchiefs behind them to wipe their tears.

There was a burst of crying in the hall.

***

Because of the Great Dynasty Meeting, the news of Zhao Hao's awakening has not yet reached the Daqing Palace, and has already reached Zhao Duo's ears.

There are many people in the Wende Palace, the matter of Xiaohuangmen is very noisy, and Zhao Hao has no intention of concealing it, Zhao Duo has also lived in the palace for decades, if there are not a few eyes and ears, then it will be too pitiful.

However, at the moment, he would rather not know the news.

"That yellow door is called Liu Qing."

Princess Wei stared at her husband, and her tone was a little unpolite.

Zhao Duo interrupted her almost impatiently and said, "So what? What is his name, and what does it have to do with me? ”

Princess Wei's voice became sharp, and she shouted, "Last time, you also said that it had nothing to do with you!" ”

As if she suddenly realized that her voice was too loud, she quickly lowered her voice and said, "I've had enough!" Now, as soon as there is something in the Wende Palace, I am terrified,"

Zhao Duo was already upset, and it was even more intolerable to react to his wife like this, and he was about to speak, when he heard someone knocking on the door and shouting: "Your Highness......"

Princess Wei quickly recognized that it was the old man who was waiting beside her husband, so she stood up, didn't know what she thought, hesitated, and sat back down.

Zhao Duo glanced at her.

Princess Wei sat with her head up, refusing to leave.

Zhao Duo knew that he was at a loss, although he was displeased, he couldn't do anything for a while.

The chamberlain at the door quickly came in, and saw Princess Wei sitting inside, obviously a little surprised, he stood in front of Zhao Duo, waited for a long time, because he didn't hear the order, he had to whisper: "Your Highness, there was an accident in the Wende Palace, and the Third Highness woke up, and I heard that there was a yellow door, which was originally serving in the palace, and gave him medicine, but somehow, he wanted to sprinkle something in the bowl - but he was also caught." ”

Until this time, Zhao Duo still instinctively felt that the matter had nothing to do with his family.

On the one hand, he regretted that Zhao Hao was not hit, and on the other hand, he was a little glad that Zhao Hao did not have an accident - once this brother has any three strengths and two weaknesses, no matter the government or the opposition, eight out of ten must think that this is his own hand.

"Find out who hasn't been?"

Although he was asking, Zhao Duo was already slowly pondering in his heart.

If Zhao Hao encounters any great misfortune, who can pick up a big bargain?

Could it be the clan of which province? But who can put his hand into the palace and actually buy the small yellow door of the Wende Palace?

Maybe it's not a buy-out, but something that has been caught? But even so, this hand is a bit too long.

You must know that even if you are a vassal king who lives in the palace, it is not easy to place chess pieces in the palace that was once tightly controlled by Zhao Rui.

He carefully analyzed this place, and suddenly slowly realized that the room was a little strangely quiet, and when he raised his head, he saw the yellow door on the other side looking at him strangely.

Before he could ask, the other party had already whispered, "Does Your Highness really not remember?" ”

Zhao Duo was a little inexplicable.

The chamberlain hesitated for a while, and then looked at the one sitting next to Zhao Duo.

Although her mother's family is not a great magnate, she has been dragged down by recent events. Princess Wei, who may have left in the past, not only did not move like a mountain this time, but she also looked back at her husband with a little indifference.

Zhao Duo was worried that there was no one available, so naturally it was impossible to offend and be a wife, and besides, he was confident that his family was really out of the matter this time, so he also urged: "What's the matter, it's like this!" ”

The yellow gate cautiously glanced at Zhao Duo's expression, and said: "That Liu Qing is originally from Xiangfu County, and there seems to be an old mother and brother in his family...... I gave him a hand......"
