Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Brother Wang, what's the matter?" Princess Cheshire asked

"He actually wants to say goodbye to the lonely king." Defang threw the letter on the table, "I don't know what it means!"

Concubine Di picked up the letter and looked at it, "Isn't Mrs. Kou encountering anything?"

"Then why didn't he come to see the lonely king? It's ridiculous to write a letter to say goodbye!" Defang was very upset.

"Brother Wang, Mr. Kou has always been prudent in his work, how could he be so?" Princess Cheshire said.

"What's the matter with being steady, you know how to fight against His Majesty all day long, and you deserve it if you have something to do."

"My lord," Concubine Di persuaded, "Now is not the time to be angry. Mr. Kou has written a letter. It seems that something really happened."

Defang shook her head, "The letter didn't say anything, it seems that this matter must be a foregone conclusion, otherwise this Kou would definitely not be like this."

"Then what should we do? My lord, we are also relatives with Mr. Kou, so we can help him with something, right?"

"A relative? It's a headache for the lonely king to have him as a relative. He has never had a good time looking for the lonely king." Defang stood up and said to the goalkeeper, "Go prepare the sedan chair and go to Kou's mansion."

"Prince" the goalkeeper replied, "The people in Mr. Kou's house said that the prince doesn't have to go, and he will go to the mansion to say goodbye in person when he leaves Beijing."

"What?" Defang turned to look at Concubine Di and Princess Cheshire, "You heard me, it's not that the lonely king doesn't help him, he has already planned it."

"Brother Wang, is there anything going on in the court recently?" Princess Cheshire asked

Defang thought for a while, "I didn't hear that there was anything wrong, but I heard that Zhang Xun and Kou Zhun were at odds with each other in the Privy Council, and they had some disputes recently, but for Kou Zhun, this was nothing serious, and he didn't get along with one or two people." Officials do."

"Brother Wang, Mr. Kou is a rare talent in the imperial court, please help him, Brother Wang." Princess Cheshire said

"Don't worry about Yunqing. Although Brother Wang scolds Kou Zhun, he doesn't want him to suffer innocent disasters. Tomorrow, the lonely king will ask him what happened." De Fang said.

The next day, Defang didn't see Kou Zhun when he went to the court in the early morning. After he went to the court, Defang asked and found out that a few days ago, Kou Zhun and Wen Zhongshu left the palace together after playing an incident. On the way, they met a lunatic who stopped Kou Zhun. He and Wen Zhongshu's horse shouted long live, and Wang Bin, who was then General You Yulin, was a close friend of Zhang Xun. He also knew that Zhang Xun had a rift with Kou Zhun, so he reported the matter to Emperor Taizong, who called Kou Zhun to inquire. Zhun explained, "Your Majesty, the official was walking with Lord Wen that day. The madman shouted in front of the two officials, but Zhang Xun instigated Wang Bin to sue the official alone. I hope your majesty will investigate this matter."

So Emperor Taizong summoned Wen Zhongshu to inquire again, Zhang Xun asked Wang Bin to come to Taizong to reprimand Kou Zhun, but the two attacked each other, Taizong was furious, threw them out of the Chongzheng Palace, and asked them to think about their mistakes in the mansion .

Hearing this, Defang hurried to the Kou Mansion, but the doorman refused to let him in, "My lord, my lord said, please come back when the lord comes."

"What! How dare you drive the lonely king away!" Defang held the golden mace to push the doorman away and walked in. "Kou Zhun! Come out to the lonely king!"

The servants of the Kou Mansion hurried to the side, and Defang said, "You guys! Go and let Kou Zhun come out to see the lonely king!"

"My lord," a woman came out, "Please calm down, my lord just fell asleep."
