People really can't be compared with each other, aristocratic families can't be compared with each other, and aristocratic families are completely different from aristocratic families.
Those with knowledge and those without knowledge are like fast food worth 200 yuan and business meals worth 2,000 yuan. You won’t know if you don’t taste it, but you will know it after you taste it.
Don't talk about the distant ones, only look at the close ones. Zhu Long was in a state of extreme embarrassment with his mouth sealed and his arms tied. Then he looked at Zhao Xiong, who "betrayed" him, stroking his beard and smiling, as if he had really made a meritorious deed by reporting and exposing.
It wasn't until he got on the carriage that Han You suddenly figured out something.
Zhao Xiong will not do meaningless things, let alone offend people for no reason.
"Sheltering" Zhu Long from the very beginning was a tactic, a tactic that deliberately lured him, Han You, to this place. When Feng Bai led people around here, the Zhao family servants could see this without any surprise.
The three brothers of the Sha family were also sitting in the carriage, looking at the "letters", the letters exchanged between Zhao Xiong and Zhu Long.
Wang Hai was the first person to discover that these letters were fishy.
The letter written by Zhao Xiong, no, the letter Zhao Xiong asked someone to write for him, looked at it suddenly, and there seemed to be something wrong. It talked about something, about the emperor.
But if you look deeper, you can see that there are doubts, fears, and helplessness between the lines, giving people the impression that they are afraid that the emperor will clean up the family and the Zhao family. However, no matter how you look at it, there are no words or meanings that are treasonous in this letter.
On the contrary, the letter written by Zhu Long was extremely bold and disrespectful to the emperor.
He looked at the date on the letter and confirmed again that Zhao Xiong had played for Zhu Long. It could be said that Zhao Xiong "guided" Zhu Long to write these letters, especially the most recent one, which talked about the three-province system. Zhao Xiong It was all "worry", but he didn't say anything bad about the emperor. Because of Zhao Xiong's "worry", Zhu Long said not to be afraid of the emperor, as long as our families unite.
"Master."
Wang Hai looked extremely strange: "I think Zhao Xiong had bad intentions from the beginning and had bad intentions towards the Zhu family."
Although he has not read the letter, Han You thinks the same way: "Three-province system, Zhao Taibao Zhao Feiyu, the two things happened almost at the same time. It was a coincidence, but in the eyes of the Zhao family, it was not. It is estimated that Zhao Xiong and the Zhao family were together at that time." I suspect that Zhao Tai wants to serve as a servant. Since Zhao Tai can serve as a servant and the Zhao family's status is even more unshakable, then the Zhao family... can reciprocate the favor. If they cheat the Zhu family once, they can please the emperor."
Han You picked up the letter and scanned it, becoming more and more certain.
Zhu Long was indeed summoned by Zhao Xiong, and Zhu Long tried to trick the second prince into returning to the capital together. Even if he didn't intervene, Zhao Xiong would find a way to sell "Zhu Long" to the emperor, but there should be a prerequisite here. , that is, confirming that Zhao Tai will serve as the minister.
"The Zhao family is indeed extraordinary. Their brains are different from ordinary people. But that's how aristocratic families are. They join forces when they have common interests, and they don't hesitate to betray other aristocratic families when they can gain benefits. The Zhao family must have done this kind of thing often."
Han You put down the letter: "Let the soldiers return to the camp. I will go to the palace to see the saint and bring Zhu Long into the palace."
Wang Hai stretched out his head and confessed, and the team began to divide into two groups. Feng Bai and Can Gui rode one person at a time and personally escorted Zhu Long, who was tied up with five flowers.
Can Gui is indeed a fool. When faced with "my father-in-law Zeng," he still has fun saying, "You too have today."
The gagged Zhu Long continued to struggle, causing Can Gui to give him a whip.
Feng Bai asked curiously: "I heard that you want to marry this old ghost's granddaughter?"
"No way, he almost deceived me."
Can Gui shouted angrily: "Before, in the Northland, this old dog said that the Zhang family and other aristocratic families were the ones who embezzled the Mobian army's food and salary, and had nothing to do with the Zhu family. I believed his lies."
"Oh." Feng Bai said lightly: "Then your Highness's army is not very well-organized."
"Feng, what do you mean?"
"Even ordinary people in the North are aware of the evils of the Zhu family and how ugly and cruel the Zhu family is, but His Highness, who has been in the North for many years, doesn't know?"
Zhou Tong's face turned red and he was speechless.
If he said he knew, it would make people think that he was in cahoots with the Zhu family, or at least knew about it and was helping the evildoers.
Say you don't know. After all, he is commanding the auxiliary troops in the Northland. He has been in the Northland for so long, and he doesn't even know what kind of people the Zhu family is. Could it be that he is blind and deaf.
Han You stuck his head out and watched the fun happily.
Being stared at by Han You, Zhou Tong was even more ashamed.
"Now you know why His Majesty asked you to come to me as a flag."
Han You snapped his fingers: "I am sworn in with sin."
Zhou Tong frowned and shouted: "The Zhu family will be eliminated as soon as they are told. Instead of getting rid of them, it is better to win over them first, win their trust, and then use them to weaken the Ma family. This is the best strategy. My king What went wrong."
Without Han You opening his mouth, Feng Bai said, "May I ask, Your Highness, where is Ma Rulong now?"
"this…"
Zhou Tong was at a loss for words: "How did I know that Ma Rulong recognized a thief as his father... No, he recognized his father as a thief... Nor, he recognized his father as the emperor... He recognized... oh, I didn't know that before."
"Then I would like to ask Your Highness again. You said that the Zhu family is not to be messed with. Where is Zhu Long now?"
Zhou Tong cursed at his mother and whipped Zhu Long on the buttocks. Being helpless and furious, he could only vent his anger on his father-in-law.
Feng Bai sarcastically said: "Look, this is why His Majesty asked you to enter the camp and follow the general. Because the general took care of Ma Rulong, he was convinced. Because the general tied Zhu Long to the horse."
Zhou Tong's expression moved slightly, and he once again recalled what Lu Baichuan had said to him the night before.
"One hundred strings, one hundred strings, you can never spend them all in one lifetime."
Han You laughed loudly and took his head back.
Zhou Tong looked at the carriage with a complicated expression. He felt that if he were his father, he would always care about Han You.
Han You in the carriage looked at the two big bundles: "Thanks to his grandma, one million strings, one million strings, one million strings, how rich is the Zhao family...?"
Even the owner of Four Seasons Villa, Han You, was really shocked by the Zhao family's handiwork. It was an understatement, two half a million yuan. You must know that he had worked so hard from his debut to the present, and the pure profit alone was not so much. The more money you have, the more taxes each state and dynasty pays.
Jiang Zhui sighed repeatedly: "I missed Zhao Feiyu, and I missed Zhao Xiong's daughter. Hey, it would be great if someone from the Zhao family could be my father-in-law."
Lu Baichuan scolded: "Even if Zhao Xiong has a daughter, she is older than my mother."
"That's true." Jiang Zhui smiled bitterly and said, "You won't live long after you get married."
Wang Hai: "She won't live long, you just need to live long."
Jiang Zhui: "What do you mean?"
Wang Hai ignored him and continued reading.
After returning to Beijing all the way and arriving at the entrance of the palace, Han You hesitated. Should he deposit the two banknotes in the bag in advance and bring one hundred thousand coins into the palace to give to Lao Ba?
After thinking for a long time, Han You suddenly remembered the matter of road construction. It just so happened that he decided to do it all at once today, and then he entered the palace with two bags.
Lu Baichuan and Zhou Tong carried Zhu Long into the palace.
