Zhao Mo just finished his Wanshou Festival and asked his family to decorate his new house. He had just chosen an auspicious day and planned to move into another house, when Zhao Yan came to look for him again.

Zhao Mo was a little surprised, and asked Zhao Yan with a smile: "How is your third uncle doing in the palace these days? The small house said that your third uncle never went there, he just sent some inconspicuous clothes and utensils, and bought some more

New bedding, but no one has ever spent the night there, so it can be seen that the third uncle has no big problems in the palace, and the princess and the second uncle have not made things difficult for the third uncle, right?"

Zhao Yan sneered: "They want to embarrass me, but my father still has some use for me and treats me kindly, so they don't dare to go too far. My mother and concubine are now busy packing their bags and preparing to return to Liaodong.

, couldn't care about me for a while. At most, he just made a few fuss when we met, and then sent two confidants to monitor me. But Zhao Li, on the other hand, now regards me as a thorn in his side. When I went out today, he even sent

People are following me all the way, not to mention poking around every corner of my body."

Zhao Mo raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "What's going on? Is it possible that the third uncle has a title and has surpassed the second uncle, and the second uncle feels unhappy?"

"Of course he will not be happy!" Zhao Yan said bitterly, "He has never tolerated me stepping on his head. I used to be young and ignorant, so he didn't take me to heart. Later he found that I was more mature than him.

Wouldn't he be annoyed if he is qualified to be the crown prince? Previously, he would pretend to be a friendly brother in front of his father, queen, mother and concubine, and put on a show, but since I reported him and the Wang family daughter, he can't even show off this little bit.

Even he refused to do it. Huh, he still has the nerve to blame me for ruining his good deeds. If I had not reported it, how could he and the Wang family daughter be married now? It was still a marriage to the imperial concubine. Even the mother and concubine wanted to object, but there was nothing they could do.

.I actually made him and his sweetheart happy, he should be grateful to me! Now he feels even more grudge, maybe he regrets it, he doesn't want to marry the daughter of the Wang family, but he can't get rid of the marriage, so he deliberately vents his anger on me.

Woolen cloth!"

Zhao Mo said with a smile: "What does this have to do with the third uncle? Didn't the second uncle himself tell the elders that day that he was deeply in love with the Wang family's daughter, and it was not Qing who would not marry him? The third uncle also had good intentions, how could he blame the third uncle?

Where’s my uncle’s head?”

"Isn't it?!" After hearing Zhao Mo's words, Zhao Yan suddenly felt much better, and he looked down upon Zhao Li even more. Even if he had no good intentions at the beginning, he was able to arrange the marriage between Zhao Li and his sweetheart in disguise.

His younger brother turned out to be meritorious! Zhao Li changed his mind too quickly, and it was wrong to blame him. It shows that his character is low!

With such a low-character brother, he was really in trouble for eight lifetimes!

Zhao Yan was full of bitterness and had no place to vomit in Prince Liao's palace. Now that he had caught Zhao Mo, he could finally vomit without worry, but why not just let it go? He had been nagging Zhao Mo for a long time, but in fact he didn't really want Zhao Mo to concentrate.

He just wanted to have a place and someone where he could scold his mother and brother without any scruples. Zhao Mo paid half of his attention to listen to what he said, and the other half of his attention was on

Taking care of his own affairs, he pondered over two recent missions sent by the emperor, and took the time to ask Ah Shou to handle a few affairs in the fiefdom. Zhao Yan didn't think it was anything, as his nephew was a popular member of the Holy Family Zhenglong.

The prince of the county must be very busy, but no matter how busy he is, he still takes time to see him and listen to his talk. This is to give him face, and he will not be ignorant of good and bad! On the contrary, he feels that Zhao Mo is still busy despite his busy schedule.

Being able to distract myself from taking care of him means that I see him in a new light, which is very useful to my heart.

When his mouth was dry from talking, Zhao Mo asked for food again: "Zhuangzi sent a cart of game early last morning and asked the kitchen to clean it up. The third uncle will have a simple meal at home, and his nephew often

The cooks in the mansion are specially transferred from Suning, and they are good at cooking game..."

Zhao Yan waved his hand: "That's all, now my father is keeping an eye on me. He said that he wants to get along with me more before returning to Liaodong, so as not to miss the father and son after they are separated in the future. No matter where I go, I have three meals a day.

It's really annoying to have to go home to eat. My father didn't treat me that highly before, but it was just because Zhao Li disappointed him, and he found that I still had some talents, and I could share his worries, and even made a plan.

He has a title and can even heal leg injuries, so he treats me a little better. But he only treats me with such kindness. When my mother-in-law and brother bullied me, he didn't say anything good for me.

."

He drank all the tea in the bowl in one breath, and Zhao Mo poured him another cup. Then he said: "I almost forgot, you are so comfortable here, I didn't care about business for a moment." He said to him.

Zhao Mo said, "Zhao Li has been doing something wrong recently, because he sent people to watch me closely, as if he was afraid that I would be friends with someone outside, which would shake his position. He wanted to detain me in the palace. Whenever I go out,

Even if he had a drink in a tea shop, he would check the tea shop owner and the guys. I felt unhappy, so I sent a few people to keep an eye on him, and found out that he was planning something with his mother and concubine.

Son, as if he planned to stay in the capital for a while longer, he even sent people to your father’s house, intentionally or unintentionally targeting the maid serving in the inner courtyard..."

Zhao Mo blinked: "What is he going to do? Isn't he still unwilling to give up?"

"God knows?!" Zhao Yan sneered, "He has always dreamed of pulling your father down and replacing him as the heir apparent. If it doesn't happen this year, his father, princess, and concubines said they would come to Beijing to plan for him next year, and he is unwilling to do so.

I feel very sad. Queen Mother, the Emperor celebrates his birthday every year, but he does not allow the vassal princes to come to Beijing to celebrate his birthday every year. It is easy for them to say it, but who knows if they can come next year? If they can't come, who will pay attention to Zhao Li? Zhao Li still

He is not stupid. If things don't work out this year, he has been anxious at home. Originally, his mother and concubine had almost packed their luggage. Starting yesterday, they seemed not to be in a hurry anymore. They even discussed with their father that they would return to Liaodong.

Before, I went to meet your father, and called all the women in your backyard to come to the house to meet him, and also called his children to come and meet him, so as not to save his own grandson, who has not even seen his grandparents... Can you believe this?

When did the mother-in-law ever take your father’s concubine and concubine seriously? Let alone have private contact with your father-in-law’s maids.”

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhao Yan stood up and planned to leave: "Be more alert yourself. Zhao Li never knows the severity of things. He is obviously stupid and thinks he is smart, but he is also vicious.

Very. What if he comes up with some evil plan to plot against you? Even though you deserve it, you are a good person. Don’t get implicated in it and get an advantage over those scoundrels like Zhao Li!"

Although Zhao Yan obviously didn't take this matter too seriously, Zhao Mo still thanked him solemnly and sent him out of the door personally. When he returned to the study, Zhao Mo thought about it.

Although Zhao Yan was fooled by himself, he was not stupid. He was always wary of Zhao Li, and his heart was more biased towards himself. He would not say such things without reason. Since he said that Zhao Li and the step-concubine of the King of Liao might be plotting against Zhao Yan,

Shuo, there must be some clues. You need to be more careful, lest you really capsize in the gutter.

Zhao Mo has been busy recently, and the King of Liao and his wife will return north soon, so he has been a little more relaxed about the Prince of Liao's Mansion and has not paid much attention. However, the eyes and ears arranged in the Prince of Liao's Mansion are still continuing.

He was working. Zhao Mo got Zhao Yan's letter and immediately asked Ah Xing to inquire about it. By evening, there was already news.

After Zhao Li returned to the palace from outside the day before yesterday, he locked himself in the room with the step-concubine of Liao for an hour, and then the step-concubine of Liao handed over several confidants to the eldest son and asked him to deploy them. At the same time, he also slowed down the process of packing his luggage.

Regarding the itinerary, I only speculated that he was suffering from wind and cold and needed to recover for a few days. He asked the King of Liao to postpone his return to the north for a few days.

This day is not fixed in the first place. As long as it is not delayed too far, it is naturally a day that the princes decide to set off on their own. However, the departure time of the Liao Prince's Palace was originally later than that of other families. Now that it is pushed back, the date

It's even later. Seeing that October is already halfway over, if we delay it further, November will come. Wouldn't it be asking for trouble if we rush to Liaodong in such weather? The King of Liao was reluctant, but the step-concubine of the King of Liao was in poor health.

She was not feeling well, so we couldn't force her to travel far away, right? The King of Liao, who always loved his wife, had no choice but to let her go, but he wanted to ask the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat his wife, but the step-concubine of the King of Liao argued that it was a minor illness and there was no need to alert the imperial doctor, so she let her go.

The government doctor will prescribe a prescription to treat wind and cold. Take the medicine according to the prescription, take a few doses, and then take a look.

The medicine in the main courtyard was really boiled for two days, and there was a smell of medicine inside and outside the house. But anyone with a discerning eye knew that it was a lie. The second concubine of the King of Liao had never drank the medicine at all. She just lay in the room pretending to be sick and took the medicine.

The medicine was just used as incense. The King of Liao had long listened to his wife's advice, and moved out of the main courtyard and lived elsewhere on the grounds that he was "afraid of getting sick". He had many things to do before leaving Beijing, and he didn't know that his wife actually

He's pretending to be sick...

The step-concubine of the King of Liao did not hesitate to pretend to be ill and delay her departure from Beijing. She must have a plan. Zhao Mo speculated that this plan must be for his father, Zhao Shuo. But what could it be? Although Zhao Shuo is a little boy,

Although he has braids, most of them are already known in the palace. He is also honest now and can't do any bad things.

What else can Zhao Li use to catch him?

Zhao Mo once again used his eyes and ears in his father's house to pay attention to what was going on there. However, everything was as usual in Zhao Shuo's house. There was only one weird thing, that is, the spy from Beirong in the outer courtyard seemed to have found an opportunity to meet Lan Xue.

In addition, someone was contacting the spy, or the spy was contacting outsiders, as if he was revealing to the outside world what Lan Xue's eating habits and hobbies were.

, nothing more than loving to eat meat, dairy products, and drinking strong tea. In short, it has a special Liaodong taste, and it is heavier than the average Liaodong woman.

What does this mean?

Zhao Mo thought the spy's words were very strange. He had also been with Lan Xue for a long time. He didn't think there was anything special about Lan Xue's eating habits, and he had no particular preference for meat and milk, let alone less food.

She drinks fermented tea, and in recent years, she prefers to drink Longjing tea as a tribute. What is the idea of ​​this spy telling lies to others? Moreover, the person who inquired about the information from her seems to be someone sent by Zhao Li. The step-concubine of the King of Liao also always

He said he wanted to meet the concubine in Zhao Shuo's backyard...

Zhao Mo narrowed his eyes and felt that there was something going on. He didn't have to wait for others to figure it out before he took action.
