There are servants outside the emperor's bedroom, so it is very inconvenient to speak.
The King of Han winked at King Zhao: "Third brother, it's still early, come and sit at my place. We two brothers will have a cup of tea and talk."
King Zhao nodded.
Over the past year, King Zhao and King Han had been moving around frequently in private, making them a very embarrassed couple.
The two brothers each had their own hidden agendas, but they had exactly the same stance on dealing with King Qin and King Yan.
After entering the Hanwang's chamber, King Zhao lost all smiles on his face and snorted coldly: "Second brother is really cunning!"
The King of Han had a sinister look in his eyes, and he also snorted heavily: "He almost died in the hands of assassins, and he wished he could bite King Qin alive. Instead, he pretended to go to see King Qin hypocritically."
King Zhao's eyes flashed, and he suddenly sighed: "This trick is really hypocritical, but it is also effective. You will know it just by looking at my father's reaction today. I'm afraid that after the palace hunting is over, my father will immediately
He becomes the prince!"
This sentence struck a chord in the lungs of King Han.
King Han's eyes flashed with fierceness, he clenched his fist hard and slammed it on the coffee table beside him: "Humph!"
King Zhao glanced at King Han and said in a low voice: "Fourth brother, you should have made plans early."
The King of Han felt sullen and his tone was not very good: "What else can I plan? In the past six months, I have been a filial son by my father's side every day. My mother and concubine always spoke well of me in my father's ears, and Prince Fu also secretly
I spoke. I did everything I could. But in the eyes of my father, it is better to look after King Yan."
Of course.
Emperor Long'an was the emperor who had been in charge of the government for forty years, and he was not an old fool who didn't know what was right and wrong. His pretentious "filial piety" and a few good words could not shake Emperor Long'an's idea of making King Yan his crown prince.
The King of Han came to the palace with Emperor Long'an, but King Yan was left in the capital to supervise the affairs of the country on behalf of the emperor. The subtle meaning revealed in this can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
The King of Han felt depressed, clasped his hands behind his back, and paced back and forth.
King Zhao let out another long sigh, looking like a brother who was deeply worried about the King of Han: "If this continues, what should we do?"
All sorts of thoughts kept flashing through King Han's mind. King Han seemed to have thought of something and stopped for a moment, but did not tell King Zhao in detail. He only said: "My father has not issued an order for a day, so I must try my best."
To take a step back, even if King Yan is established as the prince, it does not mean that he has lost.
If a prince can be established, he can be deposed.
Seeing that King Han refused to elaborate, King Zhao did not ask further questions. He followed King Han's words and said, "In short, no matter when the time comes, I will always be on your side."
"Good third brother!" The King of Han was greatly moved and patted King Zhao on the shoulder: "I will never treat you badly in the future."
King Zhao grinned, and his slender eyes were full of affection: "My direct brother, please stop saying such disrespectful things. I haven't eaten enough tonight, so I asked someone to pass on the food and bring a pot of wine. The two of us will
Let’s have a drink.”
The King of Han immediately ordered his servants to deliver the meal.
The kitchen in the palace was always prepared with meals. As soon as the king of Han passed the meal, two food boxes came from the kitchen. Eight dishes of four hot and cold dishes, accompanied by a pot of good wine.
After drinking for three rounds, King Zhao suddenly said: "The imperial concubine has been holding the phoenix seal for a long time and has been working hard to take care of the palace affairs. She only lacks the title of queen."
"After returning from the palace, the fourth brother can secretly promote the establishment of a queen."
The King of Han's eyes flashed, and he twitched his lips and said: "For so many years, my father has never had any intention of establishing a queen. Even if he wanted to establish a queen, it was not my mother's turn. Concubine Shu entered the palace much earlier than my mother. Third Brother
She is also older than me. Even if she is to have a queen, she should be Concubine Shu."
King Zhao smiled bitterly: "Fourth brother, there is no one else here, so you don't need to put powder on my mother's face. She was born as a palace maid, has never read a book, and doesn't know a few words. She is also not favored by my father.
If she hadn’t been pregnant and gave birth to me, the prince, on that day, she wouldn’t have had the chance to become the concubine.”
"How can she be compared with the imperial concubine?"
"The Imperial Concubine is of noble birth, and she and the Emperor Father are direct cousins. Either the Father will not establish a queen. If so, it must be the Imperial Concubine."
After a pause, he added: "After I return, I will be the first to submit a memorial, asking my father to appoint the imperial concubine as my queen. In this case, my fourth brother should believe me!"
The King of Han was really moved. He stretched out his hand to hold King Zhao's hand: "Third brother, I judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. From now on, I will never be suspicious or tempted again."
King Zhao frowned, and the fat on his face trembled: "In the future, the imperial concubine will be the queen, and the fourth brother will be the legitimate son of the father."
The King of Han raised his eyebrows and smiled at each other.
Only they themselves know what they are thinking in their hearts.
…
For Feng Shaojun, the death of this chamberlain was an excellent opportunity.
A carrot and a trap. Apart from Eunuch Zhao, there are only three chamberlains who can serve in the study. If one of them dies, won't the space be freed up?
King Qin was suspicious by nature, and it was not easy to get close to King Qin.
Xiaoxi entered the Prince of Qin's Mansion since she was a child. She was selected to work in the study at the age of twelve. She served the "young masters" for more than four years before she was qualified to do menial work outside the study. After working as an errand for more than half a year, she was careful and careful.
Nothing went wrong.
Now that there is a vacancy in the study as a waiter, "Xiao Xi" also has the opportunity to go further.
Feng Shaojun quietly went to find Eunuch Zhao and gave him a purse.
There were more than twenty taels of silver in the wallet.
To Eunuch Zhao, this little money is nothing. However, a little servant who sweeps and sweeps only earns three taels of silver a month. It is not easy to save so much money.
Eunuch Zhao glanced at "Xiao Xi": "Do you really want to work in the study?"
In the past, all the chamberlains would head into the study room, but now everyone avoids him like a tiger. In the past two days, he had been thinking of promoting a chamberlain to the study room, but no one was willing.
It's rare that this silly "Xiao Xi" volunteered himself and threw himself into the trap.
"Xiao Xi" nodded, with a flattering look on his face: "Young one will do your best to do your job. Please help Eunuch Zhao to support you. From now on, you will definitely respect Eunuch Zhao."
For Eunuch Zhao, it is indeed a matter of effort.
Anyway, I have to ask a chamberlain to work in the study. There are more than twenty chamberlains in this courtyard, and Xiaoxi is among them. He is calm and obedient. But he is a little bit younger...
Eunuch Zhao hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Well, since you have this heart, our family will give you a chance. From now on, you will work in the study. However, you have to be extra special when doing things in the study.
cautious."
"You have also seen the master's temper. Don't seek merit, but seek no faults first. Be careful when doing your job, do more, watch more, and talk less."
For the sake of his wallet, Eunuch Zhao made a few remarks.
"Xiao Xi" was full of joy and thanked her repeatedly.
Eunuch Zhao also thought about something and led "Xiao Xi" into the study.
