Chapter 222 Grand Master Zhao Did Not Come to Court
Chapter 222 Grand Master Zhao did not come to court
When Master Zhao woke up, he found that he was no longer in the palace. He sat up and saw that the decoration in front of him belonged to his own home, and Zhao Shuyi was kneeling in front of the bed.
"Shu Yi, how did I come back? And what's wrong with you?" Master Zhao asked strangely.
Zhao Shuyi kowtowed to the ground three times and said, "Dad, I carried you back from the palace. I'm sorry, but I have given our tiger talisman to the emperor, otherwise we wouldn't be able to leave the palace."
Master Zhao could not have imagined that Emperor Liang would do such a terrible thing during the short period of time he was unconscious! If he had known that he would not have helped him back then! What a wolf-hearted person!
"Shu Yi, how can you be so confused? How many times have I told you recently? No matter what happens to me, the tiger charm must not be handed over. Where are your ears? Don't you know this is our family's life-saving charm? Now save your life
The talisman is gone, and the good days of our Zhao family are about to come to an end!" Taishi Zhao cursed with hatred.
Zhao Shuyi sighed and said helplessly: "Dad, it's not that I don't understand what you are saying, but I want to keep Qingshan alive without fear of running out of firewood. Our Taishi Mansion has become too powerful in recent years, and the Emperor will not let it go."
Let’s continue like this. If we refuse to hand it over, then there’s no telling how the emperor will torture you! You are the backbone of our family, nothing can happen to you!”
Master Zhao is really angry and annoyed now. Emperor Liang is so treacherous. Even when the late emperor was alive, he would not do such a thing!
"You traitor! One day I will be so angry with you! What else did the emperor ask you to do?" Grand Master Zhao was really angry and pointed at Zhao Shuyi's nose and cursed again.
Zhao Shuyi gave the imperial edict in his hand to Grand Master Zhao and said, "The emperor made me the Marquis of Anle and gave me the residence of Prince Rong."
Grand Master Zhao felt that the imperial edict in his hand was a hot potato, so he threw it directly beside the bed and cursed: "Then you will accept it? Are you able to get Prince Rong's Palace? It's almost as big as the Little Palace! Why do you just do that?
Why don't you use your brain? You want everything they give you, and you give them everything they want! How could I give birth to such a stupid son like you! I'm really going to be pissed off by you!"
Zhao Shuyi quickly explained: "Dad, there was nothing I could do about the situation at that time! Look at my hands, they were almost trampled by the emperor!"
Grand Master Zhao looked down and saw that the back of Zhao Shuyi's hand was not only scratched, but also red and swollen. It can be imagined that Emperor Liang used all his strength to rub Zhao Shuyi!
"It's really unreasonable! Emperor Liang wants our entire Zhao family to die. Anlehou is just a false name. Once we take over this Prince Rong's Mansion, we will completely offend Prince Rong! Book translation, you must not live in Prince Rong's Mansion.
You are not allowed to step in, or I will sever the father-son relationship with you!" Zhao Taishi threatened with his eyes wide open.
Zhao Shuyi didn't understand now. Didn't his father always help the emperor? Why are he afraid of going to Prince Rong again? If he was afraid, why didn't he help Prince Rong back then?
"Dad, is it too late for you to do it now?" Zhao Shuyi asked cautiously.
Master Zhao frowned and asked, "Why is it too late? Please speak clearly!"
Zhao Shuyi was so frightened that he retracted his neck and said: "I, what I mean is, since before the emperor ascended the throne, we have helped the emperor deal with Prince Rong. Isn't it too late for you to say that you can't offend now?"
?Even if we don’t go and live there, Prince Rong will not change his mind about our family! Do you really think Prince Rong can return to the capital? What can the emperor do?"
Grand Master Zhao sighed and said: "It's really hard to say now. The emperor asked the left prime minister to lead the cavalry army to attack Yangming Town. Not to mention the successive failures, Liang Jingyao directly chopped off the left prime minister's head! Furthermore, the Queen Mother was rescued by Liang Jingyao.
In the palace, she is the late emperor's wife. As long as she is willing to clear up Liang Jingyao's name, who in the world would dare to have any objection? So, be careful!"
After Zhao Shu translated, he nodded and said: "What dad said is that I am being superficial! Then, what should we do now? Should we go show up with Liang Jingyao?"
Master Zhao picked up the pillow at hand and threw it over, "I just told you to have a snack, why did you come up with such a bad idea? From today on, I will say that I am ill and you need to wait for me and thank the guests behind closed doors!
I won’t see anyone coming!”
The pillow was made of yellow flower wood, and it made a "thud" sound when it hit Zhao Shuyi's forehead. Zhao Shuyi covered his red and swollen forehead in pain, nodded and said, "Yes, son, go down and give the instructions right now!"
When he went to court the next day, Master Zhao did not appear in the court hall.
Emperor Liang looked at the vacant position and asked with a cold face: "Why didn't Grand Master Zhao come to court?"
There was silence in the court, and everyone was wondering. Grand Master Zhao usually went to court on time and almost never asked for leave throughout the year. Why didn't he come today?
Seeing that no one could answer, Emperor Liang said to the young eunuch beside him: "Humph, is he trying to show off to me? Go to the Grand Master's Mansion immediately and see what's going on?"
The little eunuch responded and quickly left the hall.
After a while, the young eunuch returned to the main hall alone and reported back: "Your Majesty, I just went to the Grand Master's Mansion and didn't see Grand Master Zhao. I heard from the servant in his house that Grand Master Zhao was ill and his legitimate son was by his side.
I will not see anyone else for the time being."
Emperor Liang was so angry that he slapped the armrest of the dragon chair heavily and said: "Okay! Isn't he sick? You go to the imperial hospital as soon as possible and announce my decree. When will the imperial doctor cure Zhao's illness? When will the imperial doctor return?"
palace!"
The little eunuch bowed his body and responded: "Yes! I will go right away!"
In the court, the ministers probably guessed that the emperor and Grand Master Zhao had a conflict, otherwise the emperor would not be so angry. Everyone held their breath and lowered their heads, for fear of being shot!
Emperor Liang was so angry that he looked at the courtiers in the main hall and became more and more displeased with him. He stood up and said: "Retreat from the court!"
The ministers were relieved and after saying "Long live my emperor, long live the emperor", they quickly exited the hall.
Returning to the Qinzheng Hall, Emperor Liang remembered that Liang Jingyao was still showing off his power in Yangming Town and was carefree. He was like an ant on a hot pot! But now that the left prime minister is dead, Grand Master Zhao is unwilling to lead the army in person, and there are still some people in the capital.
Who is suitable?
Suddenly, a name appeared in Emperor Liang's mind. He called the imperial guards and said, "Go to the eldest prince's annex and call for Liang Baihao!"
The imperial guard asked uncertainly, "Is he the Duke of Zhenguo who was deprived of his title?"
Emperor Liang nodded and said, "Yes, that's him! Just tell me that I want to see him!"
The imperial guards took the order and left the Qinzheng Hall quickly.
Before Liang Baihao came, Emperor Liang sat at the meeting table, picked up a pen and quickly drafted an imperial edict.
