Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

Chapter 112 Leaving Beijing at the End of the Day (2-in-1) (Page 12)

As soon as Fan Zheng's evil Dongpo flesh came out, King Shen immediately turned losses into profits, and the officials who originally impeached Fan Zheng were disappointed.

Although the DPRK unanimously recognized the legitimacy of Zhao Xu's throne, many die-hard conservatives still had no good impression of Fan Zheng, who loved to use evil methods and advocated reforms. Whenever they had the opportunity, they spared no effort to drive Fan Zheng away from the official family.

However, sometimes it was clear that the overall situation was decided, but Fan Zheng used evil methods to reverse the situation, causing them great frustration.

"Evil doctor Fan Zheng!"

Zhao Tingzhi gritted his teeth and felt resentful in his heart.

Fan Zheng had his most beloved son Zhao Mingcheng sentenced to three years in prison, but he was always helpless, which made him suffer.

"Master Zhao, King Yong Zhao Hao has not left Bianjing yet. Will the Censor continue to impeach?" Suddenly a Censor came to report.

"Prince Yong hasn't left Beijing yet?" Zhao Tingzhi said in surprise,

You must know that after the collective impeachment of the court, the Empress Dowager had ordered King Yong Zhao Hao to serve as the Huainan Jiedushi within a time limit. Now that the time limit has passed, he has not left yet.

The censor smiled bitterly and said: "Originally King Yong had agreed to leave, but before leaving, Prince Yong's son suddenly fell ill, so King Yong made a memorial and left the capital at the end of the day."

Everyone knew that King Yong was already a cornered beast, and he used even some excuses that were not on the table. He just wanted to stay in Kaifeng City for a longer period of time so that the Empress Dowager could change her mind.

Zhao Tingzhi was moved. Now he relied on the Empress Dowager to be in power. He didn't like Fan Zheng, so he barely kept his position.

If one day, the official family is in charge and Fan Zheng becomes as powerful as Wang Anshi, how can he still enjoy his good fruits?

"If King Yong ascends the throne..."

Zhao Tingzhi's heart skipped a beat, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

If he helps King Yong ascend the throne, he will not only be able to follow the dragon, but it will not be easy to suppress Fan Zheng and save his son in the future.

"In addition to legal principles, it is nothing more than human feelings. Prince Yong's son is ill. If we press too hard, we may cause displeasure to the Empress Dowager." Zhao Tingzhi excused Prince Yong.

When the censor heard this, he immediately thought of the mother-son relationship between the Empress Dowager and King Yong Zhao Hao. The Empress Dowager was originally unwilling to let Zhao Hao leave Bianjing, so why should they be evil people again? Besides, King Yong could always find reasons to stay. Unable to open.

That night! Prince Yong's Mansion!

"The Queen Mother still hasn't let go!"

King Yong Zhao Hao looked up at the dark night sky, his heart felt cold.

Unlike Li Kefei who couldn't wait to leave Bianjing, he racked his brains to stay in Kaifeng.

Now that ten days are about to pass, the queen mother still has no intention of leaving him behind. If this continues, I am afraid it will once again arouse opposition from the government and the opposition.

"Your Majesty, a man is here to visit. He doesn't want to reveal his name. He just claims to be an old friend of your Majesty." Suddenly, a servant came to report and handed over a token.

"Please come quickly!" King Yong looked at the token and said in his heart.

Soon, a man in black robes came to King Yong. Under the dim light, he turned out to be Zhao Tingzhi, the censor Zhongcheng.

"Prince Yong, farewell and safe!" Zhao Tingzhi said with cupped hands.

Zhao Hao sneered and said: "How could Mr. Zhao not know about my situation? Since you have given up on me twice, why did you come to see me again today?"

The reason why Zhao Hao planned that position was not without supporters. However, this time he aroused collective opposition, which hit him hard.

Zhao Tingzhi shook his head and said: "It's not that we don't support King Yong, but that the Queen Mother doesn't support King Yong. Don't you understand, Your Highness? If you want to get that position, you must get the support of the Queen Mother, otherwise everything will stop." .”

King Yong fell silent immediately after hearing this.

The first time, the queen mother gave up on him for the sake of power. But this time, the queen mother was old and it was time to hand over power. It was his last chance, but the queen mother chose to give up on him again and let him leave the capital.

King Yong shook his head helplessly and said: "The Empress Dowager is too kind-hearted, and the officials are so vicious that she even threatened the Queen Mother with the lives of all the princes. Now I am afraid that the Queen Mother will not believe anything I say."

Not only did Empress Dowager Gao not believe it, but he himself was not sure whether he would be able to accommodate Zhao Xu and the other emperor's nephews after he ascended the throne.

Zhao Tingzhi shook his head and said: "Although the Empress Dowager is indecisive, she is devoted to her country. There is only one reason that can make her change her mind, and that is the danger of the Song Dynasty."

"The Song Dynasty is in danger?" King Yong asked puzzledly.

Zhao Tingzhi said with vicious eyes: "If the official family has been dormant and waited until the death of the Empress Dowager before revealing its intention to reform, His Highness King Yong will have no chance of succeeding to the throne. However, since Fan Zheng became the imperial physician, the official family has changed its dormant attitude. With such a state of mind, I have repeatedly believed in the right and wrong methods. Although it can gain power for a while, it will surely succeed and fail in the wrong direction."

King Yong's heart moved, and he solemnly said: "Please also ask Mr. Zhao to teach me."

Zhao Tingzhi sneered and said: "Since Fan Zheng is inciting the government to reform, why not His Highness King Yong follow the trend and persuade the Empress Dowager to give the officials a chance to reform. Only in this way can the Empress Dowager understand who will be the leader of the Song Dynasty. Who is the leader of ZTE and the leader of the Song Dynasty?"

King Yong's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Everyone knew that Zhao Xu admired the new law the most, but the Empress Dowager was the most likely to hate the reform. As long as Zhao Xu promoted the new law, it would definitely aggravate the Empress Dowager's disgust.

The conservatives who make up the majority will see Zhao Xu's true face and turn to him, and he will completely reverse the situation.

Zhao Tingzhi and Zhao Hao had a secret discussion, and Zhao Tingzhi warned: "This will be the last chance for His Highness King Yong."

Zhao Haoning nodded, rather than leaving Beijing in such a mess, it would be better to give it a try.

Day two!

King Yong officially announced his departure from Beijing and knelt alone outside the palace, asking only to see the Empress Dowager one more time before leaving.

Empress Dowager Gao felt great compassion and finally nodded in agreement.

In the Chui Gong Hall, the mother and son met again. King Yong said with tears in his eyes: "We say goodbye now. I wonder if I will be able to see my mother alive in the future. Please forgive my child for being unfilial."

Empress Dowager Gao was very sad. She was already old and knew that her time was short, so she naturally wanted her son to accompany her.

However, Queen Mother Gao was not stupid. She shook her head and said, "Don't blame Queen Mother for being ruthless! The fault is that you should not have relied on your favor to have thoughts that you shouldn't have."

"The child does not..." Zhao Hao quickly defended.

Empress Dowager Gao slapped the armrest heavily and shouted angrily: "No, you really think that the Ai family is old and confused. If you hadn't ordered Xiaoer, how could Xiaoer have framed the official family? You must leave Bianjing this time. The Song Dynasty has already We can no longer withstand the turmoil, and we can no longer use our remaining national strength to engage in unnecessary internal friction."

Faced with Empress Dowager Gao's rebuke, King Yong was not worried but happy.

He knew that the Queen Mother's thoughts had indeed been guessed by Mr. Zhao. She had exiled him from Bianjing in order to serve the country wholeheartedly, but for the sake of a stable inheritance of the throne, it was possible that she could serve the country wholeheartedly and abolish the official family and establish him.

At that moment, Zhao Hao raised his head and looked directly at Empress Dowager Gao, and said bluntly for the first time: "That's right! The child is indeed interested, but the child is not doing it for his own selfishness, but for the sake of his mother and the great Song Dynasty."

Queen Mother Gao looked at her always filial son in shock, as if she had met him for the first time.

"Sir, it's useless for you to read the books of sages. Have you forgotten the way of kings and ministers?"

Zhao Hao spared no effort and said: "Mother, the country of the Song Dynasty is not just the power of one person, but the country of my Zhao family. When Taizu Taizong, he once established the Golden Chamber Alliance, and the younger brother eventually came. On that day, the emperor's brother died of illness. According to the The alliance of the Golden Chamber deserves that the child be enthroned.”
