Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 730 Cutting the Heart (1 More)
Eunuch Cui hesitated for a while before saying: "Your Majesty wants to take away the empress."

Fanghua was shocked, and even Song Wei couldn't believe it.

At this time, there was a sudden "plop" outside.

Eunuch Cui had a keen ear, and he walked out as soon as he heard it. When he saw Zhao Xi kneeling on the cold floor, he was suddenly speechless.

Zhao Xi raised his head slowly, looked at Eunuch Cui, his voice was slightly hoarse, "Is what Eunuch said just now true or false?"

Eunuch Cui lowered his eyelids.

Zhao Xi only heard Eunuch Cui's last words, and his mind was a little confused.

It turned out that the father and the emperor were going to kill the mother.

With ten fingers clenched tightly, Zhao Xi couldn't describe his mood at the moment.

Inside, Emperor Guangxi's lack of anger came out, "Nizi, are you guilty?"

Zhao Xi pinched his palms, "My son, I'm guilty."

Eunuch Cui: "Your Highness..."

Zhao Xiping looked ahead, "The border is urgent. As the crown prince, I should have known about it long before my father. Hunting in the paddock was because my son was not good at learning and stabbed my father. I beg my father to come down."

"Your crimes are more than these two?" Emperor Guangxi's voice was full of anger.

Zhao Xi said firmly: "Besides this, I don't know what crimes I have committed."

His answer only got Emperor Guangxi to be full of anger, "Evil!"

Eunuch Cui reminded in a low voice, "Your Highness, Wan Qiu."

Zhao Xi understood Eunuch Cui's mouth shape, but he refused to plead guilty.

Eunuch Cui was so anxious that he almost jumped his feet, "Oh, my ancestor, your highness, you should quickly recognize it, your majesty won't be able to last much longer."

Zhao Xi was at a loss when he heard that, "What did you say?"

Eunuch Cui glanced back hesitantly, then moved to Zhao Xi's side, and whispered what he had said to Song Wei and Fanghua before.

Zhao Xi frowned deeply, "You mean, father is really sick?"

"Otherwise, Your Highness thinks why the Holy Majesty has been refusing to go to court after returning for so long?" Eunuch Cui's face was full of sadness, "The damned Yang family is restless, jumping out to act like a demon at this time, so angry that His Majesty worsened his condition."

Zhao Xi really didn't expect this to be the case. He was imprisoned in the clan's mansion for several days before he received the secret report that Beiyan assembled an army to attack Chu. Due to illness, his uncle Lu Xingzhou, who was far away in Ningzhou, was transferred back and entrusted with the important task of leading the troops to the north.

So he made a decisive decision, asked Dong Han to help, and sent a letter to Ningzhou with Costin.

The fact is indeed the case, Emperor Guangxi wanted to let Fanghua come back in the last limited days, but his proposal was rejected by the prince and all the officials before, and it happened that the Yang family was acting as a demon, so he took this opportunity to let Fanghua come back. Fanghua came to rescue him and made meritorious service. Once he has meritorious service, he will ask Fanghua to return to Beijing. No one will dare to stop him.

Zhao Xi guessed all the previous ones correctly, except that Emperor Guangxi wanted to take Empress Qi away.

Thinking back to what Eunuch Cui said in the inner hall, Zhao Xi felt a dull pain in his heart.

Eunuch Cui looked at Zhao Xi's heartbroken appearance, sighed and shook his head.

Zhao Xidao: "Your father-in-law might as well speak up if you have something to say."

Eunuch Cui said: "In the heart of this old servant, Your Highness is the most outstanding prince. Whether it is in literary talent or martial arts, there are few people who can surpass him, but such a Highness is not favored. Have you ever thought about why?"

"Probably, it's because my biological mother is not favored."

Eunuch Cui shook his head, "Your Highness is wrong."

Zhao Xi looked up at him, "What's wrong?"

"This old servant would like to ask Your Highness, do you know how Master Song Wei Song came to the capital?"

Zhao Xi didn't understand why Eunuch Cui's topic spanned so much, but he still replied: "Song Wei has a brilliant literary talent, and he has his own unique insights in his policy theory. Naturally, he passed the exam smoothly."

"Wrong again." Eunuch Cui said: "Your Majesty Song was the person whom His Majesty personally went to Ningzhou to meet, and he was escorted along the way. Although he has extraordinary literary talents, without His Majesty's protection, he might not be able to survive to the capital. "

A trace of surprise appeared on Zhao Xi's face, "Father has ever been to Ningzhou?"

"Your Highness was only eight years old back then." Eunuch Cui recalled the past, with indescribable melancholy in his voice, "At that time, His Highness was the only prince in the palace, and he was also the future heir identified by His Majesty. In order to find a wise and loyal minister for His Highness, Song Wei finally fell in love with him."

Zhao Xi never knew about these things, but when he heard about them, he was shocked.

"Perhaps in His Highness's heart, His Majesty never waited to see you and refused to give you good looks, but in fact, when the old slave accompanied His Majesty to Ningzhou, he praised His Highness a lot. In order to find a favorite minister, He condescends, disguises himself and goes to the villages in person, from one prefecture to another state, even from one county to another village. From north to south, so many state capitals, he has come here for His Highness. Song Wei is sent by His Majesty. A gift to Your Highness."

Zhao Xi lowered his eyebrows and said nothing, not knowing what he was thinking.

Eunuch Cui went on to say, "Your Majesty's concern for His Highness has never stopped since he was a child. He alienates you, doesn't want to see you, and even wants to take away the Empress Empress, just to sharpen His Highness. You know that His Highness has been greatly hurt because of one autumn. How much impact did the crackdown on going south to recuperate? If His Majesty hadn't suppressed him so hard during those days, there would have been an uproar in the court. It was precisely because His Majesty took the word "love" too seriously that His Majesty would be angry. He will be angry with you, he doesn't want you to be emotional, whether it's a relationship between children or parents, he hopes that you can polish yourself to be ruthless, only in this way, in the days without His Majesty's protection in the future, His Highness will be better protect yourself."

Before Zhao Xi could speak, Eunuch Cui said again: "Today in the Palace of Political Affairs, Yang Shoufu brought up the matter of Wan Qiu as an excuse to criticize His Highness, and many ministers wavered. Even if His Highness didn't see it with his own eyes, he should have listened to the spies. , This is very dangerous. If similar things happen again in the future, it will be tantamount to letting someone in the dark pinch His Highness's weakness. If you are not determined, you will definitely fall into someone else's trap. Your Highness, for The emperor is lonely, you must learn to adapt early, learn to get used to it, otherwise His Majesty will not be here in the future..."

"Cui Fuquan, what nonsense are you talking to him outside, get the hell out of here!"

In the inner hall, Emperor Guangxi had a gloomy face.

He didn't hear the content of the conversation between Eunuch Cui and Zhao Xi, but he could guess that the old eunuch ignored his warning and told Zhao Xi everything.

When Eunuch Cui heard the words, he immediately stopped talking, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, please reflect on yourself, the old servant will go in first."

"Xi'er is still a child, and my elder brother is already so sick, so why bother to get angry and hurt yourself?" Seeing Emperor Guangxi haggard and emaciated, Fanghua advised in a warm voice.

Emperor Guangxi waved his hand and told Song Wei, "Go out and let that bastard go away, I don't want to see him."

Song Wei stood up, saluted and retreated out of the inner hall.

Zhao Xi was still kneeling outside the palace gate.

Song Wei bent down to help, "Your Highness, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly."

Zhao Xi asked: "Father still doesn't want to see me?"

"Not seeing, maybe it's a good thing." Song Wei said: "Seeing, it's embarrassing."

Zhao Xi was noncommittal. A powerful man like his father hid the news of his serious illness. He acted in such a big show. In the end, the truth was revealed. It was when he faced his serious illness openly that he didn't bother to sell it. Even more disdain to see sympathy in the eyes of others, even if it is his own son.

"Song Wei, I have a question I want to ask you."

The two walked out of Qianqing Palace, Song Wei followed behind Zhao Xi, "What do you want to ask, Your Highness?"

"Are you the one my father personally found?"

Recalling the past, Song Wei couldn't help laughing, "I'm ashamed to say, at that time I didn't know that he was the emperor." So there are a few words, which are a bit venomous.

Zhao Xi asked again: "Then, in your opinion, should a ruler value affection?"

Song Wei heard what Zhao Xi wanted to ask. In fact, these years, he felt that Emperor Guangxi was deliberately ignoring Zhao Xi, probably because he wanted to sharpen him.Before the Inner Palace, Eunuch Cui’s words just confirmed his conjecture——Emperor Guangxi really wanted to sharpen Zhao Xi into a sharp sword without emotion, so he proposed to hunt without hesitation, so that the Queen Stay in the palace and take the opportunity to kill her.

Pulling back his thoughts, Song Wei replied: "The king may be lonely, but this creed does not apply to everyone. I believe that His Highness can find a balance between the two, and that balance is the most suitable for His Highness." s position."

Listening to Song Wei's words, Zhao Xi felt a sense of enlightenment, and the depression in his heart dissipated a lot, "I remember."

Not far from the Qianqing Palace, the two met Lu Xingzhou.

"Uncle."

"father in law."

Zhao Xi and Song Wei spoke at the same time.

Lu Xingzhou came over and took a look at Zhao Xi, "How is your majesty doing?"

"It doesn't seem too good." Zhao Xi said, "My uncle, let's go in and have a look."
