Chapter 379: Marquis Zhao is pretending to be sick!
The order of the imperial court soon came to their Qiongzhou Mansion, and when he learned that Zhao Hengyi had been seriously ill half a month ago, the great eunuch was also very puzzled, why did he get sick at this time? It's so undeserved.
He hurriedly went to the mansion of the Marquis of Qiongzhou.
in the room.
"Master Hou, what the hell is going on with you!"
"You're a battle-hardened general, can you get sick so easily!"
Zhao Hengyi frowned, this big eunuch really can't speak.
"Father-in-law, you misunderstood, as the so-called horse has stumbled, often walking by the river, how can there be no wet shoes."
"Maybe it's too hard to fight, or maybe it's the recurrence of the old diseases in my body before, which causes me to be very miserable now, and I've always been a medicine jar!"
"Oh, this disease is so serious, I can't stand it anymore."
Zhao Hengyi coughed violently as he spoke, of course, he was not really sick, but pretending to cough here, but it was part of his performance.
He took out a handkerchief from the side and coughed violently, and soon red blood stains appeared on it.
Zhao Hengyi's mouth also had red blood on his mouth, which proved that he was really sick and serious.
Otherwise, how can you cough up the blood while coughing, this must be a very big disease!
The great eunuch was skeptical.
asked cautiously.
"Master Hou, you won't pass on this disease to me."
"Father-in-law, what are you talking about? How could I possibly pass it on to you? Besides, this disease is only my own disease, and no one else will pass it on. ”
"If that's the case, then aren't all the patients in my house!"
"I'm really sorry, father-in-law, you see that my body is so weak now, I must not be able to go down to the ground to bow down to you, I hope my father-in-law can understand, I hope my father-in-law can know why I am like this!"
"That's nature. But Lord Hou, the emperor has something very important for you to do this time, what should you do if you are sick now, the emperor will be very sad, the emperor is still waiting for you to do great things, instead of living on the bed for a long time. ”
Zhao Hengyi nodded and said very embarrassedly.
"I received the emperor's wishes, but I really can't do anything about this matter, you see my father-in-law is like this now, what big things can I do? It's hard for me to go out. ”
"The emperor hopes that you can lead your troops to fight, and the southwest border of the river has begun to rebel again!"
Zhao Hengyi shook his head helplessly, he didn't have such strength at all, what are you kidding?
"Father-in-law, don't be joking, I'm just a nobody, I can't do this at all, the emperor still thinks highly of me."
"In this matter, please ask the emperor to choose another lover."
"The emperor said, only you can do this in the whole dynasty, since you are already sick, I will definitely tell the emperor."
"By the way, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and I hope Master Hou can recover soon."
"Thank you, father-in-law."
Zhao Hengyi nodded lightly, he had already expected this matter, but today he pretended to be sick and pretended to be a little too similar, and deceived this old thing.
So what's next? I hope the emperor can understand what he meant, after all, he didn't give anything when he attacked Annan, and he relied on his self-sufficiency to defeat this country.
This time, you can't empty the white wolf, just let yourself go, and then don't give military food, don't give people, and don't give anything, what's going on?
He knew that the imperial treasury might be very tight right now.
But you don't have to swish like this, it's all because of those traitors in the court.
"Okay, I'll go back and tell the emperor, I hope the emperor won't be angry because of this matter..."
Zhao Hengyi watched this father-in-law go, and slowly walked off the bed, he is still in good health, but he just announced that he has been sick for a long time.
He wanted to see how angry the emperor was, and in his impression, the emperor had never been angry.
The emperor, as if he is a good baby, has always been smiling, as if he is a smiling tiger.
On the eighth day of the lunar month, it is almost the New Year.
When the news from this side reached the ears of the official family, he was very angry, he looked at the big eunuch under his hand, and asked coldly.
"You're right!"
"Is Qiongzhou Hou really sick? He's obviously very tough, and I don't believe he's going to get sick! ”
"Your Majesty, what the slave said is true. It's just that the slave is not sure if Hou Ye is really sick.
But the people in their Qiongzhou Mansion did say that recently, Hou Ye has been in a state of illness, even if those guests come, they will not receive them. ”
"What was wrong with him? It's so serious, it's impossible for a general who marches to fight to get sick because of a little thing. ”
"The slave heard that it seems to be because the Hou Ye got a plague or something on the side of Annan, and he has been recuperating all the time, I saw that he coughed a few times and coughed up the blood, which is very terrible!"
The Guan family also understood when he heard it, but he was still half-convinced, and he still didn't believe it, this matter was really as the eunuch said, and it was possible that this matter was fake.
Anyway, this is indeed a bit strange, and people have to re-examine it.
"Go and find Lu Guogong, Lu Guogong should know what is going on, he may be able to help me persuade the Marquis of Qiongzhou."
"Yes!"
……
After a while, Lu Guogong came to the palace.
He looked at the angry official in front of him, and he was also a little confused.
What the hell is going on? The official family has been very angry for a while now, feeling that someone has offended him, but it's hard to say.
"The old minister sees the emperor."
"Excuse me from Lu Guogong."
"Lu Guogong, I ask you, why did the Marquis of Qiongzhou get sick? He is a general who marches and fights, and he can't get sick easily, and his body must be very powerful. ”
Lu Guogong was stunned for a moment, his son-in-law didn't tell him about this matter, what was going on, he didn't know very well.
"It should be quite normal for people to get sick, and the official family doesn't need to panic, maybe it will get better in a few days."
"Lu Guogong, don't fool me."
"The old minister doesn't dare."
"Do you think it's possible, Qiongzhou Hou deliberately pretended to be sick to show me.
I still don't want to believe that I'm sick, is he demonstrating to me? ”
"Did he have any other ideas, so give me a dismount!"
