Chapter 11 The nobleman makes a move

King Zhao and Guan Gao have been imprisoned for eight or nine days, except for Zhang Tingwei, who came to the front hall from time to time to report on the trial of King Zhao and others, the rest of the people did not know the situation inside.

On this day, Chengcheng Hou Lu Shizhi and Biyang Hou Zhenshiqi reported some things from Changxin Palace, and then the two bowed their heads and whispered before returning home. The buttocks were not hot, and a servant in the house came to report that there was a man named Zhao Jian outside who asked to see him. He drew circles on his forehead with his fingers, thinking that he did not know this person and had never heard of this person, so he ordered the servant to send away this man called Zhao Jian. The servant received the order and ran out to return, and not long after, the servant came back to report that the person who called Zhao Jian had to see the Hou Ye today, otherwise he would stop in front of the mansion and not leave. Judging the food and stirring the root of his tongue, he thought about it for a while to see who this Zhao Jianai was, so he waved his hand and ordered the servant to let him in. Oh, a middle-aged man appeared in sight outside the door, with a simple bun on his head, a bun without a crown, a clean and delicate face with a slightly sad face, and a simple gray-white Han robe. Shen Shiji sat on the mat and squinted his eyes, thinking that this was the Zhao Jian, so he looked him up and down carefully, and Zhao Jian walked towards him with a gorgeous wooden gilt box in his hand.

As soon as Zhao Jian arrived in the atrium, he stopped, put the box on the ground, and bowed to the judge. Shocked and puzzled, he hurriedly stood up from the mat, and hurriedly walked to Zhao Jian's side to help him, "Mr. can't make such a big gift to a certain person, I don't know what is the matter with Mr. coming to a certain mansion?" He asked straight to the point, and he has always been so straightforward.

Zhao Jian sandwiched the box in the creaky nest and continued to arch his hand, "It is rude for Xiaomin to take the liberty of disturbing Hou Ye, but Xiaomin really has something important that Hou Ye can't help." ”

Hearing this, he was confused, his eyes narrowed and he looked at the person in front of him again, so he invited him to the side of the case, and asked someone to bring a soft mat to Zhao Jian, Zhao Jian originally came to ask for a trial of him, and the trial of his treatment of himself like this made Zhao Jian feel ashamed and embarrassed, so he didn't dare to sit down, or stood in place. He couldn't screw him, so he had to let him stand as he wished, and he sat respectfully on the couch and asked him what he needed to see him.

Zhao Jian drooped his head in embarrassment, his face was full of embarrassment, he rolled his eyes and grabbed the back of his head in embarrassment, and after planning in his abdomen for a long time, he told the truth about the matter between his sister and the emperor back then, and said that his sister was now pregnant with the emperor's child and was locked up in the women's prison of the Tingwei Mansion.

When he heard the news, he immediately jumped up from the mat in shock, looked at Zhao Jian suspiciously, walked up to him in one step and asked cautiously and solemnly, "You said that the pregnant woman in the women's prison is Zhao Ji, and the child in her womb belongs to the emperor?" ”

Zhao Jian nodded firmly. Judging the food, he was slightly stunned for a long time like a big stone hitting his head, pacing around the same place with his mouth wide open, and after a while, he said with a calm and serious face, "I know what you mean by coming, do you want me to save your sister?" ”

Zhao Jian acquiesced, opened the box in his hand to show him, and suddenly felt that the jewelry was dazzling, Zhao Jian said with a slight begging tone, "Master Hou, my sister said that even if the family wealth is scattered, the child must be kept alive, because he is the emperor's child." My sister asked a jailer to tell the emperor about her affairs earlier, but the emperor was angry with King Zhao and did not think about the affairs of Zhao back then, and said that my sister was not as good as relying on the city gate and the like. The matter of King Zhao is unclear for a day, and my sister is uneasy for a day, and Nian Guan Xiangguo has never admitted that King Zhao instructed the assassination, but he is afraid that the emperor will be angry for a while and the clan will order him, so that the dragon heir has no hope of survival. My sister and I have no ability to turn the tide, only the Hou Ye Ming person will be able to persuade the queen to solve the emperor's confusion for a while, save my sister and her belly, if successful, Hou Ye'en is as deep as Hai En's bottomless, and my sister and brother will live up to Hou Ye's grace. ”

Judging the treasure in the box did make his heart move, he looked dazzled, looked at it with a smile, and immediately thought in his heart that this matter was serious, related to the emperor and queen, and another woman gave birth to a child for the emperor, and this matter must be angry when it reaches the queen's ears. Judging the food and retreated, he rubbed his mustache between his chin and pondered for a long time, and finally got straight to the point and replied, "This matter is a bit complicated, and Mr. Zhao is disappointed." ”

Zhao Jian's face was flustered, and he eagerly walked into the trial of food, holding his hand with one hand and begging, "Hou Ye is fortunate to be the queen's mother, Hou Ye's many guests rarely follow you because of the relationship between Hou Ye and the queen, and now a certain is also admired, Hou Ye is not for this matter, not can't, Hou Ye is unwilling to help the guests who come to admire, how to retain the guests to serve you wholeheartedly in the future?" Then he added, "The emperor is angry at this time and ignores his sister, if the emperor thinks about the past in the future, he will regret it, and at this time, my sister may have been killed by the affairs of King Zhao, and the son in the womb has also suffered." How can Hou Ye not prepare for the queen? It's not a bad thing to have one more heir to the emperor, my sister will not be favored even if she enters the palace, and even if she leaves her sister's womb, he will not pose a threat to the crown prince, why not let the queen make a decision for His Majesty the Emperor that she will not regret in the future? In this way, the emperor may be grateful to the queen mother in the future, and you also have the credit to the queen mother, so many people have benefited, may the queen master figure it. ”

Judging his desire to speak, he was blocked by Zhao Jian first, and continued, "If Master Hou helps us succeed, we will have all the jewels." I only hope that the Hou Ye can ask the queen to come forward to help him save his life and children. ”

Judging the food as if he was a little moved but also a little worried, he frowned and said, "The queen has always disliked the concubines who are favored too much by the emperor, and now Zhao Ji is pregnant with the emperor's child, and she has been hiding from the queen for so long, do you think the queen will help Zhao Ji?" It's just one more person's anger, the emperor doesn't care about his own children, the queen mother is even more heartless and powerless to help, and one more emperor is not a bad thing, but it is not much better. ”

Zhao Jian hurriedly stuffed the jewelry in his hand to the judge, held his hand and said, "In the future, whether the emperor is more grateful to the queen or snubs the queen, this matter will be known." Hou Ye must have a way to let the queen come forward, the child is the emperor's, even if Niang Niang she hates other women, but she doesn't dare to do anything to make the emperor hate her in the future, everything is in the control of Hou Ye, Zhao Jian begged Hou Ye to help his sister escape from the sea of suffering, Zhao Jian knelt down on behalf of his sister to thank Hou Ye. As soon as the words fell, he knelt down in front of him without hesitation.

Judging by the fact that he hurriedly put the jewelry box stuffed by Zhao Jian in his hand on the next few cases, he was a little flustered, leaned over to help Zhao Jian up, sighed, patted Zhao Jian's right shoulder, and said, "Mr. Why don't you force something?" I'll try to see if it's uncontrollable, and if it doesn't work, Mr. Zhao ...... "His eyes glanced at the jewelry boxes on a few cases.

Zhao Jian looked at the way he cared about the jewelry, and knew in his heart that the matter was half successful, so he immediately smiled and said, "The jewelry is still Hou Ye's, and Zhao will not want it back." Hou Ye is out, things will be successful, Zhao thanked Hou Ye again. As he spoke, he was about to kneel again, and he quickly picked up Zhao Jian, who was about to kneel. The matter was also settled, and both of them got what they wanted or some kind of promise in their hearts, and they both looked at each other with a smile in their eyes, and each smiled.

Zhao Jian soon resigned from the trial, saying that he still wanted to win over some relationships and help his sister out of the sea of suffering. He resolutely agreed with his approach, so he did not keep him longer. After Zhao Jian left, he picked up the jewelry box and looked at the jewelry inside, a pair of Hetian small jade toads, a pair of agate beads, various scallops and white jade heng, and some things that he had never seen. Judging the joy of eating, he smiled proudly in the spring breeze, and walked to the inner room with a smile in his hand holding the jewelry box. Take people's things and eliminate disasters with people. After eating lunch and resting in the inner room for an hour, Zhenshiqi thought that his private relationship with Zhang Tingwei was not bad, so he went to Tingwei's mansion to find Zhang Tingwei in person. At this time, Zhang Tingwei was trying Meng Shu, and when he heard that the favored ministers around the queen were coming, he hurriedly came out to greet him. He was invited to the main hall by Zhang Tingwei and sent someone to serve snacks and tea. He looked around the prison, and the lack of air circulation made him sneeze and immediately get straight to the point, "Zhang Tingwei, how is King Zhao and Zhao Xiang recently?" ”

Zhang Tingwei said, "In fact, I don't want to blindly torture them, but the emperor didn't get the results he wanted, and we were helpless whether they told the truth or not." Alas! Guan Xiang is a person who makes Zhang admire, Guan Xiang has admitted that everything was done by himself and Zhao Wu and others, and has nothing to do with King Zhao, Guan Xiang has no place on his body that can be tortured, it seems that King Zhao really has no intention of rebelling to assassinate the emperor, I just don't know why the emperor doesn't believe King Zhao. ”

Judging Shiqi smiled, and said with emotion, "Judge carefully, the emperor can't be angry in his heart, someone reported the affairs of King Zhao back then, no matter who is the emperor, I think he has to investigate thoroughly, King Zhao's rebellion and assassination have been preconceived in the emperor's heart, and the rest of the opinions may not be listened to even if they are reasonable, King Zhang is the emperor's son-in-law, and the son-in-law sent someone to assassinate him, can the emperor not be angry and deal with it carefully?" ”

Zhang Tingwei nodded in agreement.

Judging Shiqi asked casually, "I heard that there is a woman named Zhao Ji in the women's prison who is pregnant, and she is the concubine of King Zhao?" ”

"Well, I think she's about to give birth." Zhang Tingwei turned his mind and asked, "What did Master Hou ask her about?" ”

Judging by the food, he shook his head and said with a smile, "Good life takes care of her, if she goes out in the future, you will be more prosperous in the future." ”

Zhang Tingwei was confused, since he said so, Zhang Tingwei only nodded obediently as if he was following the orders of his superiors.
