Seeing the eunuch Feng Lu and his entourage leaving, King Huan Zhao Hongxuan asked angrily: "Brother Changhuang, why did you accept it?"
He couldn't accept the scene just now: Even if the eldest brother Zhao Hongli is not the biological flesh and blood of Queen Wang, they still have a mother-son love for thirty years. Now the eldest brother Zhao Hongli is frustrated and decides to leave Daliang. Queen Wang does not send anyone.
Even if you try to persuade them, you still have to pay for it. What does this mean?
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongxuan sneered and said: "It seems that the man from Fengyi Palace is ready to strongly support King Yong."
Listening to Zhao Hongxuan's indignant tone, Zhao Hongli smiled faintly, shook his head and said, "It's not what you thought. The queen made it very clear to me that day. I don't blame her." At this point, he turned around.
He glanced at the package in the hands of Zongwei Chief Feng Shu, and said melancholy: "She sent this farewell gift, and I accepted it, so that we can live in harmony and not lose face. Isn't that good?"
Now that we are here, what else can we do?”
"This..." Zhao Hongxuan was speechless.
Indeed, as Zhao Hongli said, King Xiang Hongjing has revealed that Queen Wang and King Yong Hongyu are the biological mother and son. Under such circumstances, can Zhao Hongli still ask Queen Wang to retain him?
On the other hand, even if Queen Wang intervenes to persuade him to stay, will Zhao Hongli stay?
After witnessing the scene in which his biological mother Shi Guifei fell in his arms, coughing up blood and crying for his forgiveness, an irreparable rift had already appeared between Zhao Hongli and the woman he once called his queen.
"Hongxuan, Haosheng manages Anyi."
Patting Zhao Hongxuan's shoulder, Zhao Hongli chuckled and warned: "Don't forget the agreement you and I made in Anyi... Although there is currently Lao Si guarding Shanyang in northern Xinjiang, Brother Yu still hopes that you will eventually
One day, South Korea will see the banner of the "Northern Xinjiang Expeditionary Force (Northern First Army)" and become frightened."
Looking deeply at the elder brother in front of him, Zhao Hongxuan nodded silently. After a while, he cupped his hands and said, "Brother Chang Huang, take care of me."
"Well." Zhao Hongli nodded, then turned to look at Luo Yao and Zhou Min, and said: "Zhou Min, I am so helpful to your Highness... Luo Yao, Hongxuan is young and reckless, please be as patient as you advised me back then.
Assist him."
"Yes." Luo Yao and Zhou Min bowed their hands.
At this time, on the official road in the direction of Daliang, more than a dozen people came hurrying up.
Zhao Hongli took a look, frowned slightly, patted Zhao Hongxuan on the shoulder and said: "Hongxuan, block the people for Brother Yu... Brother Yu has not yet considered how to meet them."
Zhao Hongxuan glanced behind him and nodded silently.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongli turned his horse's head and headed towards the distance of the official road without looking back.
Behind him, Zhao Hongli's ten clan guards said goodbye to Zhao Hongxuan, Luo Yao, Zhou Wei and several clan guards, and then escorted them around the carriage and left slowly.
Not long after, a dozen fast horses coming from the direction of Daliang arrived here. It turned out to be Shi Fen and Shi Liang of the Chen Liushi family and a group of servants.
"You two, stop." Zhao Hongxuan ordered Gong Liangyi and several other clan guards to stop him.
"His Royal Highness King Huan?" Shi Fen frowned and glanced at Zhao Hongli and his group who were leaving far away, and then looked at Zhao Hongxuan and others who were standing in front of him. He didn't stupidly ask "Why did His Highness King Huan stop him?"
, just asked with a sigh: "Your Highness...will you not forgive me after all?"
Zhao Hongxuan shook his head and said seriously: "Brother Changhuang did not blame or resent the two of you..."
As soon as he said this, he heard Shi Liang frowning and shouting from the side: "It's still taking this long, hurry up and get that real nephew back!"
After saying that, he turned his horse and was about to step forward, but was blocked by Zhao Hongxuan's Zongwei Du Jian.
After taking a look at Shi Liang, King Huan Zhao Hongxuan said seriously: "Wait a minute, you two. Although the elder brother did not blame or resent the two of them, he still doesn't know how to face the two of them, or in other words, face Chen.
Stay with the Shi family..."
Shi Fen was silent for a moment after hearing this, nodded and said with relief: "In fact, my third brother and I don't know how to deal with it. It's not difficult to understand that His Highness is at a loss... In short, Queen Wang will give me Chen Liu sooner or later about this matter.
Mr. Shi, give me an explanation!"
At the side, Zhou Min suddenly interrupted and said, "Why are there only two of you, Master Shi Rong?"
Hearing this, Shi Liang glared at Zhou Min, his expression suddenly became very ugly, and he changed the subject and asked: "May I ask His Highness King Huan, where did His Highness go?"
"Chen Liu." King Huan Zhao Hongxuan said truthfully: "Brother Changhuang said that he wanted to visit Concubine Shi's hometown..."
After hearing this, Shi Liang, who still had an angry look on his face just now, slightly dissipated the anger on his face. He looked back at his second brother Shi Fen and said: "Second brother, why don't you stay in Daliang temporarily, and I'll go to Chenliu to take care of it."
, After all, Chen Liu’s family still doesn’t know what’s going on, and I’m worried that someone will make things difficult for His Highness..."
Shi Fen thought for a while and felt that it would be better to remove Shi Liang, the ill-tempered third brother, for the time being. After all, because Yong Wang Hongyu did not come forward to discuss the funeral of Concubine Shi Gui in the past two days, Shi Liang's impression of Yong Wang Hongyu plummeted.
In addition, it has now been revealed that they are not the real uncle and nephew, and the family relationship they once had has suddenly disappeared.
Suddenly, Shi Fen saw Luo Yao who was still beside Zhao Hongxuan, and was slightly startled.
Everyone knows that Luo Yao is the confidant of the eldest prince Zhao Hongli, and Luo Yao is also straightforward. No matter how bad Zhao Hongli's situation was back then, he never abandoned his highness, but today, Luo Yao actually stayed with King Huan Zhao Hong
Xuan around?
Thinking of this, he asked in surprise: "Mr. Luo, won't you accompany His Highness to Chenliu?"
As if he had guessed Shi Fen's thoughts, Luo Yao did not hide anything and said truthfully: "Although it is not appropriate to say this, before leaving, His Highness has entrusted "everything" to His Highness King Huan and told me,
I will be happy to assist His Highness Prince Huan in the future..."
He deliberately emphasized the words "all things".
"Everything...?"
Shi Fen was stunned when he heard this, recalling some of the news he had learned in the past two days, and then took a deep look at King Huan Zhao Hongxuan, thinking deeply in his heart.
Even Shi Liang, who was about to chase the eldest prince Zhao Hongli, couldn't help but look up and down at King Huan Zhao Hongxuan after hearing this, and temporarily gave up his thoughts of chasing the eldest prince Zhao Hongli immediately.
At the same time, on the official road in the distance, Zhao Hongli was riding his mount, recalling the past while driving.
For a long time, he asked Feng Shu, the chief of the Zongwei who was standing by: "Feng Shu, if such a change had not happened back then, and the second son was the prince, and I was King Yong, maybe the result would have been very different?... That way
If so, King Yong will be a good prince, and I won’t have to bear this burden for a long time... eh."
Zongwei Chief Feng Shu was silent when he heard this.
Only the guards around Zhao Hongli know how much pressure this mediocre highness has been under over the years because of his status as the eldest son.
At this time, Zhao Hongli asked from the side: "Tell me, Concubine Shi... what kind of woman is she? What kind of mother is she in front of King Yong?"
Zong Wei Chief Feng Shu smiled bitterly.
After all, because of the grievances between Queen Wang and Concubine Shi, Concubine Shi was definitely an overbearing and vicious woman in front of Zhao Hongli and Feng Shu and other clan guards, so much so that Feng Shu could not help but complain in private.
:Why was the Queen so tolerant of that woman, so that Concubine Shi was so arrogant and unreasonable?
But now, Zong Wei Chief Feng Shu could no longer say those bad things about Concubine Shi, because this Concubine Shi was actually the biological mother of His Highness.
"She should be... also a gentle mother, I mean, once in front of King Yong..." Feng Shu said with emotion.
"Yeah..."
Zhao Hongli murmured to himself, and couldn't help but recall King Yong Hongyu in his mind - that day, when Concubine Shi fell into his arms, coughing up blood and crying "I'm sorry, my son", he had seen Yong.
Wang Hongyu's expression.
At that time, Yong Wang Hongyu's complexion was as gray and gloomy as a walking corpse.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongli felt both sad and ridiculous: it was his mother who died, but it was Yong Wang Hongyu who suffered the biggest blow.
It has to be said that Zhao Hongli's guess was absolutely correct. Although the late Concubine Shi was actually his biological mother, in fact, the one who suffered the biggest blow was Yong Wang Hongyu.
At this time, in the study room of Prince Su's Mansion, Yongwang Hongyu was still slumped in the corner with a jar of wine. In his mind, he could only see Concubine Shi falling into the arms of the eldest prince Zhao Hongli before she died, coughing up blood and calling softly, "I
"...
Once upon a time, that was his mother's only nickname for him!
"Bang--!"
The empty altar was smashed on the corner of the desk by Yong Wang Hongyu. The scattered tiles mixed with some wine made the desk a mess.
At this time, King Yong was no longer as elegant as usual, his hair was disheveled, and his clothes were stained with wine everywhere.
"Asshole! Asshole! Asshole!"
He yelled angrily and smashed everything that could be smashed in the study, finally attracting the clan guards who were always guarding outside the study.
Zongwei Chief Zhou Yue pushed open the door and walked into the study. When he saw Yong Wang Hongyu sitting in the corner, he felt sad for a while.
"Your Highness?" he called tentatively.
Yong Wang Hongyu raised his head when he heard this. His usually gentle and elegant face was slightly distorted, and his bloodshot eyes were filled with endless hatred and anger.
"Where is Zhao Hongjing's head?! Ah?!"
The Zongwei looked at each other, and Zhou Yue, the Zongwei chief, said in a low voice: "Reporting to Your Highness, Prince Xiang has already fled to Yangdi..."
"Then chase me to Yangdi and chop off that beast's head!" Yong Wang Hongyu almost roared.
The clan guards laughed bitterly when they heard this.
Killing someone at this time? And the person you want to kill is your brother who is also a prince? How do you think about this?
After hesitating for a long time, Zhou Yue said in a low voice: "Your Highness, the problem is not here. The problem is that King Xiang got the imperial edict to seal Yangzhai, and he followed the edict and went to Yangzhai. According to the traditional rules, Your Highness
You can't attack him again..."
Perhaps thinking that the edict was signed by him himself, Yong Wang Hongyu's face became even more ugly, and he kicked over the desk in front of him.
"Behave! Behave! Bring the wine! Bring the wine!"
Zhou Yue wanted to say something more, but suddenly he felt someone pat his back. He turned around and found out that it was Zhang Qigong, the staff member.
"Now that the overall situation has been decided, let His Highness vent his anger..."
"Can……"
"Nothing but."
Zhang Qigong shook his head, and then said seriously: "Please believe me, and please believe His Highness, Your Highness will cheer up."
