Zhao Huan walked behind the door, pulled it shut, and said, "Eldest Princess, don't forget, I am also a minister who cares about life."
Yuan Yun turned around, followed Zhao Huan with her eyes, and said, "But you are different from Er Zhuhua and the others."
Before the death of the late emperor, in addition to entrusting his wife to the Queen Feng, there were also four ministers who cared about his fate.
Taiwei Er Zhuhua, Shangshu Ling Tu He, Guanglu doctor Li Shou, and chief minister Zhao Huan.
Tu He and Li Shou were civil servants, while Er Zhuhua and Zhao Huan were military attachés.
Feng couldn't give birth to a son, so she took Yuan Xiu into her lap early, but she only wanted a status, and she was actually not kind to Yuan Xiu.
Based on this relationship, first Feng's mother was appointed the queen based on her son's honor, and then Yuan Xiu's son was enthroned based on his mother's honor.
But Yuan Xiu was too young, so Feng, who became the Queen Mother, treated him as a puppet and dominated the palace with one hand.
Although his younger brother Feng Bao's official position was not as high as that of the four ministers who cared about life, the Empress Dowager Feng made him a Duke of the State, and everyone in the court respected him as Guojiu Ye, and he became the sword in the hands of the Empress Dowager Feng.
Zhao Huan understood the meaning of Yuan Yun's words and said: "But Li Shou is the same as me. He is not good at political affairs, so why not find him?"
"Tu He is Li Shou's brother-in-law."
After a pause, Yuan Yun said frankly: "Da Sima has military power in his hands."
Zhao Huan smiled and said: "Does the eldest princess want to seize power violently?"
"I don't know." Yuan Yun shook her head and said, "But for this kind of thing, it is more useful to hold a knife than to hold a pen."
"Princess, please go back, I won't help you."
Zhao Huan answered decisively, walked back to the desk, sat down, and said: "But don't worry, tonight I will pretend that you have never been here, and not even a word of anything you said will be leaked."
Yuan Yun did not move and said in a deep voice: "After the rear party and the powerful ministers have been eliminated, my emperor's younger brother needs help in his own affairs. I, a female prostitute, do not understand government affairs, so I can only worship the Grand Sima as the prime minister."
Seeing that Zhao Huan did not interrupt, Yuan Yun controlled the rhythm and continued: "I haven't read many books, but I always believe that a man's ultimate ambition is to be able to conquer the world when he mounts his horse, and to govern the country when he dismounts. The Great Sima is
It goes without saying that Long Shuai, the leader of the Dragon Spear Warriors, has risen to the rank of Grand Sima, so he can conquer the world on horseback. But if he can become the prime minister and become the head of the civil service, at the age of Grand Sima, he should be unprecedented in Dajing.
, no regrets in this life!”
Zhao Huan tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table and said, "Elder Princess, you really surprised me. I see the shadow of the late emperor in you. But I'm sorry, I still can't agree to you."
"Why?" Yuan Yun finally couldn't control the rhythm anymore and began to ask.
Zhao Huan was silent for a while, and seemed to be organizing suitable words, and said: "You and Yuan Xiu are still children."
Yuan Yun was stunned for a moment, said no more, bowed deeply to Zhao Huan, and left.
Looking at Yuan Yun's disappearing back, Zhao Huan sighed: "What a smart girl..."
When talking to smart people, there is no need to speak thoroughly or explain.
The concubine's party is monolithic and cannot be shaken from within.
However, the four ministers of Gu Ming, Zhao Huan and Li Shou, were conservatives, while Er Zhuhua and Tu He were radicals, so there was an opportunity.
It is indeed the most suitable for Yuan Yun to find Zhao Huan.
Zhao Huan refused, saying that Yuan Yun and Yuan Xiu were just children.
It's also very clear.
It's not that I don't want to help you, but you are too young and not strong enough, and I don't want to die with you.
Yuan Yun stopped asking, because she understood.
One month later.
On a warm spring day, Zhao Huan came back early from outside and planned to take his wife on an outing.
As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Zhao Huan saw Mu Zhaojun sitting in the pavilion admiring flowers, with a girl behind her rubbing her shoulders.
Only when Zhao Huan got closer did he see the girl's face.
I'm not very familiar with her because she's not the girl in the house.
But it's a bit familiar. I saw it one night a month ago.
Zhao Huan coughed and waved his hand to signal the others in the pavilion to retreat.
After waiting for the Qing people, Zhao Huan nodded slightly and said, "I, Zhao Huan, have met the eldest princess."
Mu Zhaojun stiffened for a moment, looked at Yuan Yun in surprise, and asked, "Are you the eldest princess?"
Yuan Yun held down Mu Zhaojun's body as he stood up to pay his respects, and said, "Madam, there is no need to salute. We can just talk normally."
Mu Zhaojun looked at Zhao Huan, who nodded and sat down on another chair.
"Why is the eldest princess here again?"
"If Da Sima had promised me last time, I might not dare to come again."
Zhao Huan narrowed his eyes and understood the meaning of Yuan Yun's words.
If you agree to something like this too readily, it will be unreliable.
Zhao Huan said: "It makes no sense. My life is very good now and I won't agree to it."
Yuan Yun continued to rub Mu Zhaojun's shoulders and said, "I believe Da Sima is not someone who only cares about personal honor and disgrace. You are ambitious."
Zhao Huan smiled and said: "You have only met me a few times, so there is no need to say such complimentary words to me."
"No. You can tell whether a person has faith and ambition."
Yuan Yun said seriously: "There is light in Da Sima's eyes."
Zhao Huan closed his eyes and stopped talking.
At this time, a child who looked to be in his early ten years ran over.
"Dad! Mom!"
"Cheng'er."
Mu Zhaojun hugged little Zhao Cheng who was running towards him, and took the opportunity to move his body to prevent Yuan Yun from pressing his shoulder.
"Cheng'er, have you finished your homework?"
"No. Invincible brother invited me to play with birds!"
"Nonsense, you are not allowed to go anywhere until you finish your homework."
"I'm going, I'm going! I made my promise to Brother Invincible yesterday. How can a man break his promise?!"
Zhao Huan withdrew his gaze, looked at Yuan Yun, and said, "Do you still remember what I said to you? You are just children like my son."
Yuan Yun looked into Zhao Huan's eyes and said seriously: "I have already brought Da Sima's words to my brother."
"We are indeed children."
"But we... can be your children."
Hearing this, Zhao Huan and Mu Zhaojun were both stunned.
Mu Zhaojun glanced at Yuan Yun almost with fear.
Zhao Huan stood up, held Zhao Cheng's hand, and said: "Children cannot stay children forever, they will grow up."
After saying this, Zhao Huan took Zhao Cheng and left.
"Dad, where are you taking me? I want to play with birds."
"As a man, you must keep your word. Dad will accompany you to complete your homework, and then let you find Wuwei."
Looking at the backs of Zhao Huan and his son, Yuan Yun pursed her lips.
"You go." Mu Zhaojun sighed and walked out of the pavilion.
She also understood the meaning of Zhao Huan and Yuan Yun's words.
Yuan Yun said that she and Yuan Xiu could be Zhao Huan's children, which was the biggest cake she ever drew for Zhao Huan.
Zhao Huan said that children will grow up, telling Yuan Yun that you only need a father when you are children, but you will no longer need it when you grow up.
