Chapter 426: Planning, Entering the Palace, Secret

"Huh?" After listening to Zhao Ta's words, Zhao Yan and Yue Fei both exclaimed.

"Why, don't you dare?" Zhao Ta looked at the two expressionlessly.

"This ......" Zhao Yan scratched his head and said: "Second brother, I don't dare to do anything, I can do anything for the sake of the fifth sister, but I am afraid that the official family will trouble you at that time." ”

Zhao Ta said lightly: "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?" When the matter is done, you also hide, don't show your face for the time being, so as not to find your head again. ”

After speaking, his eyes looked at Yue Fei again, and Yue Fei said sneeringly: "Senior brother, is this considered disobedience to the king's order?" ”

Zhao Ta said: "Fujin doesn't want to marry, it's almost the same to disobey his father's order, what kind of king's order to disobey!" ”

Yue Fei snorted: "But Senior Brother means to quietly take the emperor out of the palace, and then find a place to hide, so that the emperor will not marry the Cai family......"

Zhao Ta looked at him and said, "Senior brother, do you think this has anything to do with loyalty and patriotism?" ”

Yue Fei lowered his head and said, "It seems to be ...... It doesn't matter much either. ”

Zhao Ta said: "That's it, although it is said that the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, but what is the reputation of the Cai family, don't the junior brothers know?" Shall I just let my sister jump into the fire pit! ”

Yue Fei thought for a while and said, "Cai family...... The reputation is indeed not good, and I have heard many treacherous things, and the people have also said that the house is full of traitors or something. ”

Zhao Ta said: "Isn't this it, if Fujin himself is willing, I won't intervene in this hand, but Fujin is unwilling, then I will definitely stop it." ”

Yue Fei scratched his head and said, "Everything is up to Senior Brother." ”

Zhao Ta pondered for a moment: "This matter is sooner rather than later, I will enter the palace in a while, and then find a way to bring Fujin out, but in order to avoid being seen, you can't use the palace guards, most of the palace guards are from the palace, the imperial city division and the eunuchs and soldiers in the palace all recognize them, and their martial arts are also poor." ”

The two said yes, Zhao Ta thought about it and said: "The broken jade building is mostly rough embryos, and it is not good to use them, and many of them have been to the palace, and the Imperial City Division outside is staring, knowing that their roots and feet are not safe, and there is no outstanding martial arts in them, and the strongest martial arts at the moment are only junior brothers and high pets, but high pets cannot show up." ”

Yue Fei said: "Senior brother, I am also wanted, aren't you afraid of being recognized?" ”

Zhao Ta said: "It's easy to look good, the portrait of a few months ago has long been lost in the rain, and the female straight people have been gone for so long, who still remembers this, and there must be a strong martial arts to protect Fujin, right now I am surrounded by you and Gao Pet, Gao Pet knows too much, absolutely not." ”

Yue Fei said: "Senior brother, how do you do it?" ”

Zhao Ta said: "You first go to the Broken Jade Building and let Jian Suyi get a carriage, and then find Zhu Xiaoyi and ask him to take you to wait outside the east gate of the palace, I want to take Fujin out of the imperial city, let her get into your carriage, and then you send Fujin to Luliuzhuang, and then I will send more people to Zhuangzi to protect it." ”

Zhao Yan wondered: "Second brother, why don't you let the fifth sister come to the palace?" ”

Zhao Ta shook his head and said: "There are so many eyeliners of the Imperial City Division outside, if there is a carriage back and forth, it will definitely make people suspicious, and I will have to ride a horse when I enter the palace, not to mention that the official family will be furious when they know that Fujin is missing, and they can't send someone to the palace to check, which is too unsafe!" ”

Yue Fei nodded and said, "Senior brother, then I'll go to the Broken Jade Building to find Sister Jian now." ”

Zhao Yan said: "Second brother, I'll go too!" ”

Zhao Ta said: "You can't go, you go back to the bookstore to clean up, and then go directly to the Zhuangzi outside the city to hide." ”

Zhao Yan said: "Then I will change my appearance when I go out?" ”

Zhao Ta said: "Do you know how to disguise? ”

Zhao Yan said: "Just stick a few mustaches......"

Zhao Tan frowned: "Scrape some ash at the bottom of the pot to blacken your face, then take off your robe, change your clothes and go out!" ”

Zhao Yan whispered: "I know." ”

Zhao Ta looked at Yue Fei again: "Senior brother, you are not familiar with Tokyo, after driving the carriage, you asked Zhu Xiaoyi to find someone to lead the way, and the identity of their beggars, even if someone wants to find out, there is no way to find out." ”

Yue Fei nodded: "Senior brother, can you deny an hour?" ”

Zhao Ta looked at the sky outside and squinted: "At noon, if everything goes well, I will leave the palace at noon, if I don't come out by then, you just wait outside." ”

Yue Fei nodded again, got up and left, and Zhao Yan also left.

Zhao Ta watched the two go out, and thought for a moment, which allowed Lei to set three sets of saddleback horses.

The horse is a yellow horse, but now it has been renamed the red horse, and the mane of the red horse has slowly curled up a little since it changed color, and it looks a little nondescript, and it is a little weird.

Zhao Ta is riding it when he goes out for a while, although the skeleton of this horse is similar to a lamp for a thousand miles alone, but it eats fat and has a big belly, and it is more comfortable to ride than a lamp for thousands of miles alone, although the speed of running is not as fast as a light for a thousand miles alone, but Zhao Ta always feels that it is because it does not use all its strength, and it is naturally lazy.

went straight to the east gate of the imperial city, and then entered, but this time even the horse was involved, which was not in accordance with the rules, but where did the soldiers guarding the door dare to stop it, just asked respectfully, does His Highness need someone to take care of the mount?

Zhao Ta shook his head, saying that he would go to the sage and not need to take care of it here, and then went straight to Zheng Niangniang's palace.

When he got over there, some of the concubines inside were gathering to talk, and seeing him get up one after another, Zhao Ta asked what he was talking about, and Concubine Wang Xian said: "Your Highness, naturally you are talking about the marriage of Emperor Maode." ”

Zhao Ta glanced at her, this little Wang Xian Concubine is called Wang Yuegong, seven or eight years older than him, and now he is only twenty-eight or nine, born white and plump, when he was a child, he often held him on a horse and taught him to learn polo.

He said, "Fujin didn't come? ”

Concubine Xiao Wang Xian said: "Xu is shy, I haven't seen him until now." ”

Zhao Ta nodded, and after sitting down, he just ate preserved fruits, listened to the audience, and did not speak.

After half an hour, the sun went south, the concubines left, and Zheng Niangniang said: "Is there something wrong with my son?" ”

Zhao Ta nodded: "The child does have something that he can't figure out, so he came to ask his mother." ”

Zheng Niangniang smiled: "My son has been out of business in the past few years, is there anything else you don't understand?" ”

Zhao Ta said: "The mother also jokes about the child, and the child is not a fairy, so it is not normal not to know something." ”

Zheng Niangniang was curious: "What is the matter?" ”

Zhao Ta glanced left and right, Zheng Niangniang waved her hand to let the palace maids go out, and then closed the palace door.

Zhao Ta said: "Mother, why did Daddy demote Starling to a commoner and drive him out of the palace, and why was he in such a hurry to marry Fujin and choose the Cai family?" ”

Zheng Niangniang was stunned when she heard this, and said, "You are asking about this!" ”

Zhao Ta said: "Please also ask my mother to solve her doubts." ”

Zheng Niangniang shook her head and said, "This matter ...... In fact, the official family thinks a little too much. ”

"Thinking too much?" Zhao Ta raised his eyebrows.

Zheng Niangniang sighed lightly: "People only know that the most favored by the official family is me and the mother of the third brother, Wang Guifei, because the two of me were originally female officials beside the Empress Dowager, and the official family wanted to come over, but in fact, the official family's favorite is Fujin's mother." ”

Zhao Ta thought for a while and said: "This can also be seen, the child still has the impression that when Fujin's mother died, his father was very sad, not only wrote many poems to mourn, but also posthumously named her Queen Mingda." ”

Emperor Daojun's original match, Empress Xiangong Wang, died in the second year of Daguan.

Zheng Niangniang Daguan was established as the queen in the fourth year, and the canonization ceremony of the next year and the first year.

Fujin's mother died in the third year of Zhenghe, and two months after her death, she was posthumously registered as the queen, nicknamed Mingda, at the age of 27.

This kind of thing is extremely rare when there is a queen in the harem, and the dead concubine is also posthumously crowned as the queen.

After all, posthumously crowning generally happens to the succeeding emperor, not the emperor of the current dynasty, if the succeeding emperor is not the son of the empress, but born by a lower-ranking concubine, then in the case of the death of the empress and his biological mother, he can posthumously crown his biological mother as the empress.

At that time, not only did the harem have a queen, but the emperor was still there, so he posthumously sealed the dead concubine as the queen, and the aftermath cost was very huge, which immediately caused dissatisfaction in the court, but Emperor Daojun still insisted on going his own way.

This shows Emperor Daojun's love for this Liu.

However, Zhao Ta also wondered, and said: "In this case, why didn't Daddy set up Fujin's mother after Empress Xiangong's death, but instead canonized his mother?" ”

Zheng Niangniang said: "The Empress Dowager Xiang had a last word before she died, when the harem has no owner, you can choose one between me and the mother of the third brother, the official family is filial, and I respected the last words of the Empress Dowager, and then it may be that the official family sees me as virtuous, and finally let me ascend to the throne." ”

Zhao Tan nodded, the Zheng family and the Wang family were originally female officials next to the Empress Dowager, and the throne of Emperor Daojun was to put it bluntly, it was the Empress Dowager Xiang who helped him sit on it, so it made sense for the Empress Dowager to have this kind of last words, after all, the left and right were their own people, so she was relieved of what was behind her.

As for Zheng's virtue, it is well known to the world, she is not only talented, courteous, but also very simple.

At that time, when the queen was canonized, the Great Song Dynasty was fighting with the Western Xia, and Emperor Daojun wanted to customize clothes for the Zheng family, but she asked Emperor Daojun to say that now the treasury is empty, and the salary for fighting on the front line is still insufficient, and it takes too much money to make phoenix crown costumes, as long as the old clothes are transformed, and later she begged Emperor Daojun to exempt her from the honor guard when she travels, as well as various attendants, etc., and Emperor Daojun agreed to her request.

And since being the queen, Zheng will never allow her family to interfere in state affairs, she has a brother of the same clan, named Zheng Juzhong, engaged in military and political affairs under the Privy Council, Zheng said to Emperor Daojun, do not let the concubine's family participate in the government, if the official family has to appoint them, the concubine has to be a concubine, so Emperor Daojun has no choice but to remove Zheng Juzhong.

Later, Emperor Daojun felt that this was a bit too unkind, so he secretly reinstated Zheng Juzhongguan, and after Zheng went to his mother's province to know about it, he came back and told Emperor Daojun that Zheng Juzhong and his father had dealings with each other, and the officials said that they used their power to accept bribes, and asked the officials to completely remove them from their ministries and let the Yushitai supervise them.

Emperor Daojun had no choice but to obey, and later secretly used it again without telling the Zheng family.

Zhao Ta thought of this and smiled, her mother is really worthy of the word virtuous, this is not fake, as the master of the middle palace, she has never instilled in herself the words of fighting for the throne, and she has never asked Emperor Daojun, this is the best proof.

He said: "Mother, you just said that the matter between Fujin and Starling was because Daddy thought too much, what is the reason for this?" ”

Zheng Niangniang shook her head, and said for a long time: "Queen Mingda was born in a humble background, grew up in the market, and had a childhood sweetheart next door before entering the palace. ”

Well? Zhao Ta was stunned when he heard this, how could this be like Huang Jue and Xiao Apple's thing?

Zheng Niangniang continued: "Originally, she had no contact after entering the palace, but I don't know if that Xiaolang did it on purpose, or if it was really for a living, and later she went to be the forbidden army of the palace front division and was sent to guard the outer gate of the palace. ”

"Oh......" Zhao Ta touched his chin, thinking that he was doing it on purpose.

Zheng Niangniang continued: "The two have bumped into each other, but they should not recognize each other, but the official family thinks too much, and suspects that there is a relationship between the two, and they even abandon Fujin and Starling, so they suddenly became angry with the two." ”

Zhao Tan wondered, "How did Daddy know about these things?" ”

Zheng Niangniang sighed: "In the Mid-Autumn Festival the year before last, the official family missed Queen Mingda, so they went to see her old things, but in some relics of Queen Mingda, I found that the poems she wrote before her death and some essays. ”

Zhao Ta frowned and said: "But why are you only angry with Fujin and Starling, in addition to the two of them, there are eleven brothers, eighteen brothers, and fourteen sisters, who were also born to Queen Mingda!" ”

Zheng Niangniang said slowly: "Fujin is the biggest, starling is second, and the official family inquired and learned that Xiaolang, who was the childhood sweetheart of Queen Mingda, died of illness in the year when Starling was born, so it was Fujin and Starling who were naturally angry." ”

Zhao Ta thought for a while and said, "Mother, do you think Queen Mingda is really ......?"

Empress Zheng shook her head: "How is it possible, if I don't know about others, but I know her very well, Gai won't do such a dirty thing, not to mention where the little soldier guarding the outer door has the opportunity to act, and the second brother, don't you think Fujin and Starling are similar to the official family in terms of appearance?" ”

Zhao Ta carefully recalled that this was indeed the case, and couldn't help but nodded.

Zheng Niangniang said again: "Actually, I think it...... The official family didn't know that what he was thinking was all nonsense. ”

Zhao Ta said: "In that case, why does Daddy treat Fujin and Starling like this?" ”

Zheng Niangniang sighed and said: "I can't get over my face, the more I think about it, I can't get over the knot in my heart, I feel that since Queen Mingda has entered the palace, she shouldn't think about the past, and she shouldn't express her feelings in those poems." ”

Zhao Ta smiled: "Daddy is not wrong, but he has pity for Fujin and Starling." ”

Zheng Niangniang said: "Starling himself is old, and when it comes to leaving the palace to open the mansion, although he is demoted to a concubine, the official family should restore his title in the future, and the official family just can't think about it for a while." ”

Zhao Ta shook his head and said: "I'm not worried about starling, it's not a bad thing to take away the title, it's just that Fujin married the Cai family......"

Zheng Niangniang said: "What does the second brother want to say?" ”

Zhao Ta smiled and said: "Mother, Fujin doesn't want to marry Cai Ying, and the child doesn't want her to marry the Cai family!" ”

Zheng Niangniang said strangely: "Although the Cai family is not noble, but one family and two phases, there will be no one more phase in the future, the court is already the top, why is Fujin unwilling to marry?" Second brother, what grudge do you have with the Cai family? ”

Zhao Ta said: "Fujin lost her mother when she was young, her mother took care of her and grew up, and there is no difference between her and her own daughter, she doesn't want to marry, I don't ask the reason, as for the Cai family, sooner or later it will fall, Fujin married her, it hurt her." ”

"Cai Jia...... Will it fall? Zheng Niangniang looked at Zhao Tan: "Second brother, is there any basis for what you said?" ”

Zhao Tan smiled and said: "Mother, don't ask, in short, I won't let Fujin marry the Cai family, and it's impossible to ask my father for this matter, and I won't agree to ask my father if I ask for it, maybe I'll be even more angry." ”

Zheng Niangniang was silent for a long time and said, "Second brother, what are you going to do?" ”

Zhao Ta smiled and said, "Mother, what else do you think I can do?" ”

Zheng Niangniang's expression became serious when she heard this: "You ...... Do you want to take Fujin out like you did when you smuggled Apple? ”

Zhao Tan nodded.

Zheng Niangniang said: "Second brother, you have to know that Fujin is different from Xiao Apple, Xiao Apple was in your palace at the time, and the official family didn't remember who she was at all, if you think of a way, you will cover up the past, and you will bring only a few palace people, but Fu Jin is the emperor, and he is going to marry the Xiangmen Cai family, this matter is known to the whole dynasty, and the people have heard of it, once it disappears, it will inevitably be an uproar, and the official family is angry, not to mention, I am afraid that the court will be shaken." ”

Zhao Ta smiled and said: "Mother, I don't care about that, Fujin can't marry into the Cai family, you find me a box or something, just say reward me with something, and I'll take Fujin out." ”

Zheng Niangniang looked at him for a moment, her face showed a helpless look, and she let out a long sigh......
