Chapter 584 Tell the truth
Zhao Gou was confused by this edict, he really couldn't understand what his father was thinking.If the imperial decree is true, then there are only two paths before him, one is to fight for the crown prince, and the other is to leave the capital and go to Yanjing.

Since there are endless troubles to stay, it is better to go quietly.At present, Zhao Gou really didn't think about fighting for the throne, the timing was wrong, and he didn't have that idea.It doesn't matter who is the emperor of Jiangshan in the Song Dynasty, as long as that person treats the people well and is a Ming emperor.

But, is the emperor really willing to let him go?

Not only Zhao Gou didn't know about this problem, but even other people didn't know about it.Only after Zhao Gou entered the court again can he know the final result.As long as Zhao Gou was conferred the title of King Yan, whether to leave the capital or stay in the next step was determined by an imperial decree.

In the end, everyone dispersed, and Zhao Yougong also left the Zhao Mansion and returned to his own Prince Chu Mansion.The moment he stepped into the door, he realized something was wrong.Then, after entering the mansion, he directly entered the study room, opened the bookshelf, and opened another door.

"Father!"

When Zhao Yougong entered the secret room, he saw his father whom he had not seen for a long time.At this moment, when he saw Zhao Si, he found that Zhao Si was a little different, because Zhao Si's complexion was a little yellow, and there were many bloodshot eyes in his eyes, and he knew that he lacked sleep at a glance.

Zhao Si nodded in response to Zhao Yougong's greeting, Zhao Yougong bluntly expressed his doubts, "Father, where have you been these days?"

"I went out for a while, I have something important to do!" Zhao seemed not to answer directly, he raised his head, glanced at Zhao Yougong, and said indifferently: "What you want to ask is why the emperor suddenly granted the status of Little Ninth Prince, and why Why did you depose his title and remove all his official positions and positions in front of many courtiers?"

Zhao Yougong didn't deny it, and waited for his father's answer with wide eyes.Since the last incident, Zhao Si hasn't shown up for a long time, which makes Zhao Yougong a little suspicious.No matter what method Zhao Yougong used, he couldn't find it. The only possibility was that he was not in Song Dynasty.

"Forget it, let me tell you together!" Zhao Si sighed, "You should track down my whereabouts, but you don't know my whereabouts. In fact, I have always been in the palace and have never shown up. Because some things are not mine. Don’t do it if you don’t want to, everything is for the overall situation.”

"Now that Xiaojiu is married, the time is ripe. What I'm going to say next, you must keep it strictly confidential. You are not allowed to mention it to anyone, and you are not allowed to disclose half of it. Because this matter is very involved, and it is definitely not the result of one person. It can be resolved.”

Zhao Yougong nodded solemnly, he seldom saw his father so serious, which shows that this matter is no small matter.So, Zhao Yougong told Zhao Yougong all the ins and outs of the matter, Zhao Yougong was dumbfounded and speechless after listening.

After being stunned for a while, Zhao Yougong questioned, "Are you really going to do this?"

"There is no other way!" Zhao Siyan replied concisely.

"No wonder it's like this... No wonder!..." Zhao Yougong suddenly realized, he finally understood everything, but he still had some denials in his heart, and Zhao seemed to be able to see that kind of eyes, but he was too Now that I know Zhao Yougong, as long as I agree, I will never intervene, because this is the emperor's will, and it is for the future of the Song Dynasty.

Only now did Zhao Yougong understand why Zhao Gou was suddenly crowned king, and why everything was deprived of it, because the man behind the scenes was the present emperor, and even Zhao Gou's father, and his own father was also involved, so he knew the secret , that is to say, he must also join it, and must not have the slightest personal affair.

"Now that you know everything, then you should know how to do the following things!"

Zhao Yougong nodded bitterly, he knew it, but regretted it, this was not the answer he wanted, but he had to accept it.

"This is unfair to the ninth brother, and it is also unfair to the people. Why did the emperor do this? If an accident really happened, how should it be resolved? How did the emperor think and how to use such a method? Will……"

Zhao Yougong hesitated to speak, and Zhao Si sighed, "Although there will be such a situation in the short term, in the long run, doing so is reasonable and the best solution. Now I will hand over that thing to you, You must keep it safe, and there must be no leakage."

"If you don't complete well, then you will fail the expectations of me and the emperor, and the future of Song Dynasty will be entrusted to you!"

"I'm afraid I can't bear it!" Zhao Yougong said helplessly with a sad face, "If it's other people's business, I'm fine, but this matter is too involved and too many people are involved, so I really did this." , can the Great Song Dynasty still be stable?"

"If it's destined, then there's nothing we can do!" Zhao Si was unwilling to carry out such a plan, but it was a pity that he couldn't bear it and could only comfort him.

When Zhao Yougong glimpsed the secret for the first time, his heart was also in turmoil, and it was difficult to keep calm.If he really follows the path envisaged by the emperor, as long as everything goes well, then Da Song Jiangshan will really feel at ease.The current emperor is like a gambler, giving it a go, desperate.

Zhao Yougong took the things his father handed over, then Zhao Si said a few words, then got up and left.Because he still has more important things to do, leaving Zhao Yougong alone.Zhao Yougong looked at the thing in his hand that weighed only one or two catties. If it was really made public, the world would be in chaos.

At this moment, Zhao Yougong felt that the thing in his hand was like a piece of hot potato, and he didn't know whose hands it was in.Now he has guessed Zhao Gou's result, but he can't reveal half of it. If he did, it would be really dangerous.

"what should I do?……"

Zhao Yougong tightly grabbed the thing in his hand, he really felt that this thing was not much better than having it.Without it, you don't need to worry too much about anything, and some things can fall into place without it.It's just that with it, he needs to take on greater responsibilities, and he doesn't even have confidence in himself.

The bridge to the bow is naturally straight!
Zhao Yougong thought for a moment, but he could only agree, and then carefully put away the thing.Because this thing is related to the country of the Song Dynasty, and it is related to the safety of the lives of the common people in the world.However, Zhao Yougong was powerless to refute, this is his responsibility, just like Zhao Si.

Zhao Si told Zhao Yougong all the truth, which made his heart heavy and made him feel out of breath.Zhao Si used to be alone, but now there is Zhao Yougong.Sometimes what doesn't show the truth is what you like, and it may not be what you want to do, and you will be disappointed and even a little scared in the end.

At this moment, Zhao Si's heart felt like this. Throwing this hot potato to him meant entrusting the entire country and society of the Great Song Dynasty to Zhao Yougong.Zhao Yougong really felt that it didn't matter if he didn't know the truth, knowing it would affect his mood and even affect his judgment.
