The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 405 Raw Rice Cooked Mature Rice
The Lunar New Year is approaching, and there are only three days left.

At this time, it is the coldest period of the twelfth lunar month.Even if the weather is cold, it still can't stop the enthusiastic people from welcoming the New Year's excitement; every family buys new year's goods, and the bosses in the market, shops and other stores are grinning from ear to ear, because the annual purchasing season is here, and their pockets need more money. Puffed up, how unhappy.

If you go to various shops, whether you sell lanterns, clothes, vegetables, etc., you will see smiles on everyone's faces.If you buy a lot at one time, you will be warmly received and even given a preferential price.As a result, the entire Bianjing city was very lively.

The Lunar New Year has passed, Zhao Yougong did not break his promise, he really lived in the county palace.Moreover, Zhao Yougong had no intention of leaving, and moved directly to Zhao Gou's residence.Originally, Zhao Gou was very happy, but gradually Zhao Gou always felt that he had something to hide from him.

"Brother, I see that you have been staying at home these days; it seems that there is no major event in the court, and you are already on vacation. Everyone has returned to their homes to prepare for the New Year to welcome the New Year." Zhao Gou said sideways, "Why have you always Stay in the mansion, and don't want to go out for a walk, that's not okay!"

Zhao Yougong replied angrily: "What's so fun about going out? It's nothing more than buying goods! I don't need to buy things, so what to do when I go out, it's better to stay in the mansion and have a rest. Besides, I don't have you That idle time!"

Zhao Gou smiled calmly and said, "I heard that there will be an annual meeting during the New Year, and many people will attend it. Is this really true?"

"Of course it's true!" Zhao Yougong took a sip of water, gave Zhao Gou a blank look, and immediately ignored him.

Although Zhao Gou is away all the year round, he seldom celebrates the New Year in the capital.However, it is impossible not to know about such a major event, Zhao Yougong felt uncomfortable when he thought about it, and wished that this year would be over soon.Besides, he has spent so many New Years, but this time is the most uncomfortable, and he feels panicked!

It's really hard to tell!

Zhao Gou smiled without saying a word, carefully observing Zhao Yougong's every move, every word and deed!At last, Huangtian paid off, Zhao Gou noticed that Zhao Yougong's expression was flustered, and there was a trace of aggrieved.There is only one person in the world who can make him feel so aggrieved!
"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" Zhao Gou muttered secretly, and said inadvertently: "Brother, it's almost Chinese New Year, why don't you see Uncle Thirteen? Could it be that he doesn't want to spend time with you?"

Zhao Yougong's body stiffened, speechless, he looked around suddenly, as if he was on guard against something.Zhao Gou smiled knowingly, and continued: "Oh! I almost forgot, Uncle Thirteen is really busy, and besides, it's not convenient for him to show up, even if it's Chinese New Year, we can't be together!"

"It's better not to be together!" Zhao Yougong echoed in a low voice.

Immediately, Zhao Gou understood, and secretly laughed in his heart: "Brother, I didn't expect you to have today!"

From Zhao Yougong's demeanor and words, it can be seen how much he doesn't want to see his father, let alone mention him.If what Zhao Gou expected was right, it must be related to Uncle Thirteen that Zhao Yougong became homeless, so he was happy now.

Even though he knew that Zhao Yougong didn't want to mention Zhao Si, Zhao Gou didn't seem to understand, not only mentioned it in front of Zhao Yougong, but also became a key topic.

"I haven't seen Thirteenth Uncle for more than half a year, I miss him very much! Have you seen Thirteenth Uncle? If so, how will you feel?"

Zhao Yougong glared angrily, Zhao Gou ignored the anger in his eyes, and continued, "It would be really great if Uncle Thirteen came here, these years my brother celebrates the New Year alone, it must be boring. It will definitely be different after Thirteenth Uncle!"

"It's better to be alone!" Zhao Yougong said bluntly in his heart.

Zhao Gou asked: "Why is it better to be alone?"

"That's because..." Zhao Yougong almost slipped his tongue, and hastily changed his words: "It's nothing, I'm just used to it! After all, I've spent the New Year alone for so many years, and it's still the same without my father. Even with him, wouldn't it be the same? There is New Year’s every year, I’m already tired of it!”

Zhao Gou was even more happy when he saw Zhao Yougong's appearance of trying to cover up, and said again: "It makes sense! Earlier, Uncle Thirteen had no choice but to see each other; now there is nothing else to do, and he will come to the house after a while gone."

"What?" Suddenly, Zhao Yougong exclaimed, "When will you come?"

"What are you panicking about?" Zhao Gou looked at Zhao Yougong contemptuously, and said, "It's not an outsider, let alone an enemy, it's your father, okay? Is it necessary to be so surprised? Besides, Uncle Thirteen is here If so, it's normal!"

"What nonsense, when will you come, why didn't you say it earlier!" Zhao Yougong stood up abruptly like a frightened bird, "No, I'd better sneak away!"

"Haha!..." Zhao Gou laughed heartlessly, "Brother, Thirteenth Uncle didn't come, just to tease you! Haha!... When did you become so afraid of Thirteenth Uncle? , I’m afraid no one will believe it! Haha!..."

"You kid..." Zhao Yougong broke into a cold sweat with fright, and gave Zhao Gou a hard look.

Zhao Gou laughed for a while, and joked: "Don't hide it from me, it is estimated that Thirteenth Uncle has something to ask you, otherwise, with your temperament, how to escape from Chu Palace and come directly to my residence, and you are not allowed to mention it to anyone. If you don't go out during the day and don't go out at night, there must be something wrong!"

Zhao Yougong glared at Zhao Gou fiercely, he didn't reply directly, but he just didn't want to say anything.Because he knew that if Zhao Gou found out, he would definitely laugh at him, and he would lose all his face.Therefore, I would rather die than speak.

"Uncle Thirteen!" Zhao Gou wanted to sarcastically, but he never thought that Zhao Si would appear beside Zhao Yougong with a stern face, without saying a word. things happen.He didn't expect Zhao Sizhen to appear. It was a joke, but it turned out to be true.

The news that Zhao seems to be alive is not allowed to be revealed, so Zhao Gou gave a look, and Steward Wang comprehended it, and directly ordered people to block the place and not allow anyone to approach.It was only said to the outside world that Zhao Gou and Zhao Yougong had important matters to discuss, so it was inconvenient to disturb them.

"I said Old Nine, so don't make jokes with your brother, you know that the department will scare people to death!" Zhao Yougong didn't respond at all, he was frightened by Zhao Gou's words just now, how could he be fooled so easily this time? If he panicked again, what face would he have? He still sat in his seat as motionless as a mountain, and even picked up his tea and drank it.

Zhao Gou glanced at Zhao Si in embarrassment, seeing that he didn't instruct him, he asked again: "Is Uncle Thirteen really so scary?"

"You don't know my difficulties!" Zhao Yougong couldn't help but sigh helplessly, and took another sip of tea.

"Oh, what difficulties do you have, why don't you tell me how?" Zhao Gou caught Zhao Si's eyes, and immediately shut up. This sentence was answered by Zhao Si.

Zhao Yougong frowned, always felt that there was something wrong with the voice, why was it so familiar; then, he turned his head and saw Zhao Siyin looking at himself with a sullen face, that is a typical smile with a knife hidden!So, Zhao Yougong was directly frightened by Zhao Si, and choked on the tea.

"Ahem!..." Zhao Yougong coughed for a while, and his face turned red from holding his breath, and he stood up immediately, "Father...Father King!"

Zhao Si asked indifferently: "Just now I heard you say that you have any difficulties, why don't you tell me and listen to it!"

With a mournful face, Zhao Yougong glared at Zhao Gou again: "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Zhao Gou looked at Zhao Yougong with innocent eyes: "I reminded you a long time ago, it's just you who didn't take it seriously!"

"Father, those are the words of the minister at the moment, they cannot be counted!" Zhao Yougong wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to start, and he felt that the reason was a bit far-fetched.Not to mention that Zhao didn't seem to believe it, even he himself felt that he couldn't believe it, so he was forced to speak out in the end.

It wasn't until Zhao Yougong expressed the difficulty in his heart that Zhao Gou realized that he was indeed justifiable.In addition, Zhao Gou had seen a different Zhao Si, wiped his cold sweat secretly, and looked at Zhao Yougong sympathetically: "Brother, it's really hard for you, you are unlucky to meet a father like Uncle Thirteen!"

It turned out that Zhao Yougong was in a bad mood, and it was not out of nothing that he repeatedly found fault with Zhao Gou, but for a reason.

Everyone knows that Zhao Gou and Xing Bingyi have a marriage contract, so there is no need to talk about it.However, Zhao Si didn't know where he heard that Zhao Gou not only had Xing Bingyi as his fiancée, but also a beautiful lady who was hidden in a golden house. In the end, he personally observed that it was indeed true.

So, Zhao Si started his plan: let Zhao Yougong get married as soon as possible!
First of all, Zhao Yougong communicated with Zhao Yougong calmly, but Zhao Yougong argued hard, but he didn't agree; Still not happy.

In the end, there was nothing he could do. Zhao seemed to think of a good idea, and he thought of it from Zhao Yougong. He directly found Zhao Yougong to drink with him, and got him completely drunk. Not only that, he also drugged his son, and decisively kidnapped him. A woman came, who belonged to He's family, even Zhao Yougong didn't see her face clearly, so she cooked rice with that raw rice in a daze.

Zhao Sishou stood outside Zhao Yougong, in order to keep an eye on Zhao Yougong, afraid that he would back down, and finally left after getting a satisfactory result.I thought that when the raw rice was cooked, Zhao Yougong would give in and marry that woman directly.

However, Zhao Yougong didn't give in, and fled in a hurry. He didn't even see the woman's face clearly, so he ran away without a trace.After many investigations, Zhao Si finally found out that he was with Zhao Gou, so he chased after him personally, in order to bring this unfilial son back.

"Ninth brother, tell me how can any father be like this, drug his son to achieve his goal, have you ever thought about my feelings!" Zhao Yougong complained about Zhao Si's fault angrily, thinking of this matter in his heart He felt that his face was dull, and there was still a trace of fear. He didn't expect his father to come directly like this, and returned his words, feeling aggrieved.

Zhao Gou asked Zhao Si, but Zhao Si justly said that it was for the good of Zhao Yougong, and also for the sake of the succession of the family, he was not wrong.After Zhao Gou heard about it, he wiped off a cold sweat in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't have a father like Zhao Si, otherwise it would be really troublesome.

However, it was the first time Zhao Gou heard someone do this, and Zhao Si's thoughts were really unpredictable to him.As for whether this matter is good or bad, he is not good at commenting.After all, Zhao seemed to be his thirteenth uncle, this happened to Zhao Yougong, there was nothing he could do to help him.

Now Zhao Gou understands why Zhao Yougong is unwilling to return to his mansion when he is young.If it was him, he would probably do the same, maybe even fight.Originally, he wanted to mock Zhao Yougong, but Zhao Gou stopped mocking him, and even felt sorry for Zhao Yougong's experience.

However, the person I admire the most is Zhao Si, who actually drugged his own son and cooked rice directly with raw rice. This strategy is really clever.Even if Zhao Yougong objected, it was impossible to deny the matter so far, and he could only obediently obey, so Zhao Si's goal was achieved.
