The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 235 Father and Son Talking Hearts
After Zhao Gou gave a few words of advice, he left in a hurry, leaving the father and son Zhao Si and Zhao Yougong behind.After all, it's not good for anyone to have such a thing happen, especially Zhao Yougong always thought that his father was dead, but he didn't think it was just a game, the two of them were left silent, and even the air seemed a little depressed.

"Gong'er, it's your father's fault these years, and you have suffered a lot!"

Zhao Si was the first to speak out and said the long-lost words. He has always felt that he owed Zhao Yougong a lot. Since his mother died, and he was devoted to the court, he never gave him too much care, but he didn't want Zhao Yougong to let him go. In his heart, he respected him very much, which caused ripples in his heart and tears in his eyes, which was really uncomfortable.

Zhao Yougong saw his father, whom he hadn't seen for many years, confess to him, and his tone was full of guilt, which made him feel uncomfortable, and he didn't know what to say.The pain in his heart has always been borne by himself silently. In order to prevent the Chu Palace from decaying, he had to shoulder the heavy burden. In the end, he was blinded by others and went on the road of no return. In addition, Zhao Yougong felt that his father was treated unfairly, and he didn't really want to. To seek to usurp the throne, not to mention that Zhao Ji was his uncle, even he himself did not believe that he would kill Zhao Ji ruthlessly. He just wanted to ask for an explanation and return justice to his father.

Zhao Ji loved him far more than his father Zhao Si. After Zhao Si died, Zhao Ji called him into the palace or came to the mansion in person whenever he had time, and talked with him about state affairs. Indulging in pain, Zhao Yougong remembered everything Zhao Ji did in his heart.

Afterwards, Zhao Ji became a fatuous and incompetent person who was alienated; when he saw the emperor again today, Zhao Yougong realized that he was wrong. The emperor has always been very shrewd, but there are some things that he is unwilling to reveal and restrain his edge. There is also Zhao Gou, a cousin, Let him understand that everything he does is under the emperor's control.

At the beginning, Zhao Yougong committed suicide to apologize, because he didn't want his father and the emperor to get too tense, and asked his father to take out the "gold medal for avoiding death" to save him, so he knew that his father's love for him was silent , Never showed anything, and stood up in times of crisis.

In addition, Song Huizong Zhao Ji's care and concern for him were all in Zhao Yougong's heart, so he didn't want Zhao Ji to be in trouble, he had to die, but he didn't want to be stopped by Zhao Gou.At that moment, Zhao Yougong realized that he was really blinded by hatred, ignored Song Huizong Zhao Ji's love for him, and instead believed in superficial things, which made him ashamed to face everyone.

"Father, you are right, the fault lies in my ignorance!" Zhao Yougong lowered his head in shame, he really realized that he was wrong.

Zhao didn't seem to say anything to comfort Zhao Yougong, he patted him on the shoulder lightly, and asked puzzledly: "Gong'er, before you mentioned that after my fake death, someone sent someone to assassinate me, and someone dug my grave, What is going on with this matter? How can you think that it was the emperor's brother?"

Zhao Yougong recalled: "It was one month after the father died and was buried, a group of men in black attacked the Chu Palace at night. At that time, they did not kill the servants and servants in the palace, but attacked me. At that time, I didn't think much about it. , and fight them."

"Judging from their martial arts, it was a move taught by the Forbidden Army. In the end, a few tokens of the Forbidden Army fell from a few of them, and after tracing, they were indeed found. Looking back now, I realize that the assassination was very Strange!"

"Strange?" Zhao Si signaled him to continue.

"At first they dispatched 12 people to attack me, and I defeated several of them. In the end, they were exhausted and were about to be killed, but they retreated instead of attacking me. At that time, I didn't think it was a conspiracy; now that I think about it, I'm afraid those People left tokens on purpose, making me mistakenly believe that it was done by the emperor."

Zhao Yougong frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Afterwards, I will arrange more people in the palace to prevent accidents from happening again. Strange to say, after that incident, there were occasional people sneaking around the palace, but no Assassinated again; then, I originally worshiped, but found another group of men in black on the road, and they were fighting with them, and they were about to dig the grave, and found the tokens of the Imperial Army from their bodies."

"I'm afraid it was a trick. At that time, my heart was full of anger. I didn't expect so much. In the end, the two of them kept talking in my ears, and they also mentioned what happened when the father and the emperor competed for the throne. They I am old, and I have never seen them before, and I found them later, and I heard them say that they were under the command of my father before, and I believed what they said without tracing, and then the two of them kept saying in my ear What happened before is nothing more than sowing discord!"

Zhao Si recalled that those two were Mingjiao's former protectors, who were killed by Zhao Gou and Zhao Yougong, and said in surprise, "Then when did you know their identities?"

Zhao Yougong smiled embarrassingly and said, "Actually, thanks to Zhao Gou's help, I wouldn't have known their identities were suspicious!"

"What does this matter have to do with Gou'er?" Zhao Si couldn't understand even more, and looked at Zhao Yougong curiously.

Zhao Yougong replied: "In fact, Lao Jiu led the army to conquer Fang La and won the victory; later, when Fang La was escorted to Beijing, I was also in the crowd, but I found that there was something wrong with the eyes of the two of them. I always felt weird. Later, I followed secretly and discovered that the two of them had sneaked into the prison to meet Fang La."

"You followed the clues like this and found out that what the two of them said before was nothing!" Until then, Zhao Si didn't understand the general idea of ​​the matter.

Zhao Yougong nodded, and said, "That's right, speaking of it, it's also a coincidence! If Fang La hadn't been escorted to Beijing, and they acted strangely, I wouldn't have found out the truth of the matter. Only after tracing them did I find out that their identities are very suspicious. .”

"It's just that at that time I didn't know that they were the remnants of the Ming Cult. I thought they were thieves colluding with Fang La. Finally, I found out that they met another person quietly. That person called him a guardian, so I realized that they were members of the Ming Cult. I knew it by following the clues." They have bad intentions."

"However, at that time, Lao Jiu had already started to investigate the matter of the year, and he didn't have the extra energy to deal with it. Some things still needed to rely on the abilities of the two of them, and he didn't pursue it until this happened. I didn't recall all the previous things. They should be behind the scenes!"

Zhao seemed to lower his head thoughtfully, bowed his head and said nothing, carefully recalled everything, anyone who cared to know about his competition for the throne with the emperor's brother, at that time they appeared to be in the same situation, but in fact they had a very good relationship, not many people I know, some things can be found out through careful investigation, so the two of them mentioned some living habits and opinions, I am afraid that Fangzheng learned about them after having a knee-to-neck conversation with him, so Zhao Yougong misunderstood this scene, and finally rebelled. As a last resort, the matter has reached this point and there is no turning back, so Zhao Yougong continued to make mistakes regardless.

"You are so confused!" After Zhao Si thought about the ins and outs of the incident, he found that there were many loopholes, all of which were ignored by Zhao Yougong, and he blamed him heavily, but Zhao Yougong did not refute, the matter was indeed done by him, some links were not careful Only when you think carefully will you make a big mistake.

"In the past few years when I was away, just think about the attitude of the emperor towards you, and what happened when you were a child. You are so confused that you made such a big mistake. If it weren't for the kindness of the emperor and the younger brother in the middle I beg for mercy, I'm afraid this time the decapitation is really different!"

Zhao Si hated the swearing and swearing of iron and steel. Since childhood, Zhao Yougong showed a distinctive maturity and stability, and he was also confused. This made him very heartbroken. He suddenly remembered that he had mentioned another person before, and asked with a frown: "You mentioned earlier that the two of them met another person. Do you know the identity of this person?"

Zhao Yougong thought about it carefully, shook his head and said: "At that time, I only thought that the two of them should not spoil the big plan, and I didn't follow that person, let alone track him down. If I really took action, I'm afraid things wouldn't go so smoothly. But the only one who is sure is a woman, although I have not seen her face, but heard her voice, this is for sure!"

"Woman?" Zhao Si lowered his head and murmured to himself, with a solemn look on his face. He felt that the matter of Mingjiao was not over yet, and he was afraid that there would be more storms waiting for them. He couldn't help but think about it carefully.
