Chapter 34 The effect that Xuanping Hou wanted
Zhao Yao asked Tongxi to take the old man and the two monkeys back to Liang Run's house. He and his second uncle continued shopping.
Liang Run took Zhao Yao to the most famous pastry shop in the capital and bought a lot of dim sum. Zhao Yao was going to take it back to the palace for Liang Zhaoyi to eat.
Zhao Yao went to the largest bookstore in the capital and bought a lot of books for Liang Zhaoyi.
After buying the script, Liang Run took Zhao Yao to Zhenyulou for lunch. They were lucky enough to have an empty seat.
The business of Zhen Yu Lou is very good, and it is full of people every day. If you're unlucky, you're going to have to queue up.
Liang Run and Zhao Yao ordered good food, and they heard the storyteller talk about the war on behalf of the king.
There is a large platform on the first floor of the Treasure House, and people perform on the stage every day. There are those who perform music playing, there are storytellers, there are singing operas, and there are those who perform shadow puppetry. This allows guests to enjoy a variety of performances while eating.
"Every day, there will be a storyteller in Zhenyulou who talks about fighting on behalf of the king."
Zhao Yao supported his face with his right hand, and listened with great interest to Mr. Storyteller's talk about pacifying Xuzhou and Jizhou on behalf of the king.
Xuzhou and Jizhou are both important lands, and not only that, they are also rich lands. Three years ago, the rebel army of the former dynasty rebelled in these two places, and Emperor Wu of Zhou sent the king to quell the rebellion.
It didn't take much time for the acting king to pacify the rebellious armies in Xuzhou and Jizhou. In that year, the acting king also became famous for pacifying the rebellious armies in these two states.
When quelling the rebellious armies in these two states, the ability of the king to lead the troops to fight was finally demonstrated. Since then, the acting king has become more and more courageous, winning almost every battle, and has become a victorious general in everyone's mouth.
In fact, three years ago, the storytellers all said that the king pacified the rebellious armies in Xuzhou and Jizhou. At that time, this incident caused quite a stir. After three years, the storytellers in the capital said this matter again and again, of course, not to fry leftovers, but to build momentum for the king.
During this period of time, most of the storytellers in the capital were talking about every military exploit that the king had made, which was to let the people in the capital know how powerful the king was, and let the people understand that the reason why they could enjoy the current peace was because of the king.
"Now when everyone mentions the acting king, they will praise the acting king." Liang Run played with the tea cup in his hand and said, "I think that the acting king is a great hero, and I think that the acting king is the god of war of the Great Zhou Dynasty and their protector." As he spoke, his voice suddenly became very quiet, "Now many people think that the acting king is more powerful than the crown prince, and they all think that the crown prince is not as good as the acting king." ”
"This is the effect that Xuanping Hou wants."
Liang Run lowered his voice and asked the doubts in his heart: "Now that the acting king is very popular in the capital, even more than the crown prince, why is there no movement on the side of the prince of Zhenguo, this is too strange." ”
"Because Zhenguo Gong knows that Xuanping Hou is useless for them to do this."
"Useless?" Liang Run was surprised, "Now everyone thinks that the acting king should be the prince." ”
Zhao Yao shrugged his shoulders and said, "What do you think is useful, but you can't change anything." Besides, the crown prince is the prince of a country, but it is not something that can be changed. "Even if the father wants to replace the crown prince, he can't change it casually.
"Even so, isn't it too weird that Zhenguo Gong doesn't fight back at all?" Liang Runman was puzzled, "Xuanping Marquis is deliberately humiliating the prince by doing this, why don't they ask?" ”
"It's very simple, deliberately put the prince's brother at a disadvantage, and deliberately let the acting king suppress the prince's brother."
"Huh?" Liang Run looked stunned, "What's the use of deliberately putting the prince at a disadvantage?" ”
Now everyone admires the second brother and thinks that the prince brother is not as good as the second brother, but when things turn around, everyone finds that they have been wrong about the prince brother. At that time, everyone would think that the second brother was too domineering and bullied the prince, and everyone would sympathize with the prince's brother at that time. Zhao Yao felt that the reason why Zhen Guogong didn't do anything now was because he held back his big move, and when the time came, it would be fatal with one blow and a shocking reversal.
Liang Run was dumbfounded when he heard this, and was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, and hurriedly asked, "What does it mean that things are reversed?" ”
"Zhen Guogong will not sit idly by all the time, he will definitely fight back later, and then the situation will be reversed." Zhao Yao said firmly, "There will be a big drama in the future, wait and see." ”
"What kind of drama, what is Zhen Guogong going to do?"
Zhao Yao shook his head and said, "I don't know about this." He added, "When the second brother comes back, they will make a move." ”
"Speaking of which, when will the acting king come back?" Since the news of Liangzhou's victory returned to the capital, he has been talking about the king every day, but the king himself has not returned to Beijing for a long time.
"The second brother will be back tomorrow." Zhao Yao said, "It seems that I arrived in the capital in the afternoon." ”
"I'll be back tomorrow?" Liang Run thought that the acting king would not be able to return to Beijing after a while, but he didn't expect to come back tomorrow.
"It stands to reason that the second brother will arrive a few days late, but the second brother seems to have sped up on the way and arrived a few days early." Zhao Yao said with a smile, "It seems that the second brother himself is in a hurry to come back." ”
"When the acting king comes back this time, is the fight between him and the crown prince ......" Liang Run frowned and said, "Is the capital going to be uneasy?" ”
"It has nothing to do with us." Zhao Yao saw that Liang Run was a little uneasy, and comforted him, "No matter how hard the prince's brother and second brother fight, it won't involve us, second uncle, don't worry." ”
Liang Run thought about it carefully, and felt that this was really the case, and he felt a lot more relieved.
"Yes."
While he was talking, the guy brought the freshly prepared dish. Zhao Yao and Liang Run's attention immediately shifted to food.
After lunch, the nephew and uncle decided to go back first. On the way back, they saw several elderly beggars punching and kicking a young beggar.
The little beggar who was pressed to the ground curled up, holding his head tightly in his hands and biting his lip tightly to prevent himself from making a sound. His eyes were cold and fierce, as if he was going to devour the beggars who bullied him alive.
Liang Run couldn't stand it, so he stepped forward to drive away a few elderly beggars and pick up the dying little beggar who had been beaten.
The little beggar was thin and small, his whole body was dirty, his face was bruised and swollen, and he could not see his original face clearly, but his eyes were very bright.
When he was helped up by Liang Run, Fang Cai's wolf-like eyes suddenly became dazed, as if he didn't understand why he was rescued?
Liang Run carefully examined the little beggar's body and found that he had many wounds on his body and many bruises.
"How are you?" This little beggar looks about the same height as Yaoyao, and should be as big as Yaoyao.
The little beggar came back to his senses, and his eyes became wary. He hurriedly retreated, widening the distance between him and Liang Run.
Liang Run saw the little beggar looking at him vigilantly, and smiled at him gently: "I'm not a bad person, I just want to see if you're hurt, if you hurt somewhere?" ”
The little beggar glanced at Liang Run, then at Zhao Yao, who was standing behind Liang Run, and then ran away without looking back. Unfortunately, his leg was kicked just now and he fell down just a few steps.
Liang Run hurriedly stepped forward to take a look. The little beggar was holding his right leg and looked very pained.
"What's wrong with you?"
Zhao Yao walked over, saw the little beggar holding his right leg, biting his lip tightly in pain, and guessed: "His leg should be kicked off." ”
"Kicked?" Liang Run stretched out his hand to check the part of the little beggar's leg, and sure enough, it was kicked off. He picked up the little beggar without any hesitation, and did not dislike the little beggar at all, covered in dirt.
"Second uncle, are we going to the hospital?"
"You don't have to go to the hospital, you just go home." Liang Run knows a little medical skills and can heal broken legs.
The little beggar fainted directly because it was in too much pain. After Liang Run brought him back, he first fixed his legs with two wooden boards, and then carefully checked the pulse of the little beggar, and found that the little beggar was sick. He wrote several prescriptions in a row, and then instructed Tongxi to go to the hospital to get the medicine.
"Second uncle, are you going to take him in?"
Liang Run said with a smile: "It's fate to meet, so help him." ”
Zhao Yao suddenly thought of the dream he had when he was sick, and Zhao Yao in the dream was taken to a special place, where there were many children about the same age as Zhao Yao. They studied and trained together since childhood, and became each other's most trusted comrades-in-arms.
"Second uncle, if this is the case, then you should keep some more little beggars or orphans."
"Huh?"
