Chapter 156: Uncle Guo knelt down three times and begged for a plan

Zheng Guotai's "slow" voice is a bit unexpected for Gao Pragmatic, but it is reasonable.

Although he is obviously a little afraid of high pragmatism, whether Zhu Changxun can become the prince is of too great significance to the Zheng family. If he didn't have the courage to gain something from Gao Pragmatic today, he really couldn't explain it after he went back.

"At this point, I don't know what else Brother Zheng has to say?" Gao Shishi didn't look angry, but asked calmly, and there was not the slightest joy or anger on Furui Wubo's face.

Although Zheng Guotai's courage was forced to increase, his eloquence obviously did not improve much because of this, and his speech was still straightforward and unadorned: "Situ, my sister is the only favorite in front of the emperor, you must know this......"

After saying this half sentence, Zheng Guotai paused slightly, and cautiously looked at Gao Pragmatic's expression. It's a pity that he lacks enough understanding of Gao Situ's acting skills, so that he is a little uneasy in the face of Gao Pragmatic's unmoved appearance, and I don't know if Gao Pragmatic agrees with this sentence.

But since Gao Pragmatic didn't say anything, he had to continue: "...... And the emperor's eldest son's biological mother, Concubine Wang Gong, the emperor has not only never been lucky for several years, but also never even went to Tianshou Mountain to pay respects.

As for Chang Luo himself, except for the New Year and the Birthday Festival (the birthday of the emperor and the queen mother of the two palaces), the emperor has never summoned him, and the father and son cannot see each other several times a year.

On the contrary, for Chang Xun, the emperor has to go to see it for a while almost every day, and he always likes to hold and tease him personally, and even for Chang Xun's things, the emperor often hears it in person, and orders Pang Bao, Liu Cheng and others to specialize. The grace is like this, and the difference can be seen. ”

Pang Bao and Liu Cheng are both eunuchs from Yikun Palace, and their status was not high, but they were just two small emperors. However, it is precisely because of the low status that they can't tie up with Huang Mengyu and Chen Ju, or even Zhang Cheng and others. So when Emperor Zheng was only a concubine, she gained her trust, and later, needless to say, it was naturally with the improvement of Emperor Zheng's status. So far, these two people have been divided into the royal office and set up two eunuchs, and they are the two rising stars in the inner court.

Gao Pragmatic was still expressionless, just glanced at Zheng Guotai, and asked lightly: "So what?" ”

Although Zheng Guotai was only glanced at by Gao Shishi, he was shocked by such a light demeanor - as if in his eyes, such a saint was not worth mentioning at all.

Although he was a little angry, Zheng Guotai was too impressed by the things instilled by Wang Zhizhen, and he secretly thought: Oops, this tried and tested hand is not easy to use in front of him, is his holy family really more powerful than Sister A?

Then I thought about it again: Yes, it must be so, otherwise Sister Ah would not have suffered a loss a few days ago, and today she would not have explained that I must not offend Gao Situ.

Zheng Guotai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, squeezed out a smile, and said: "I can't talk about it, but Sister Ah said that the emperor's holy will is like this, Gao Situ not only has a ten-year friendship with the emperor, but also is already a minister of the imperial court now, and will be the first choice of Yuanfu in the future...... Does Situ really not consider the emperor's feelings? ”

Gao Shishi's heart moved, and his brows moved slightly.

Zheng Guotai noticed something strange on Gao Pragmatic's face for the first time, and couldn't help but get excited, and said secretly: Sister really has the means! This high pragmatism is neither lacking in profits, nor seeking fame, he is already a person who is difficult to enter, but he still has weaknesses after all! The emperor has a deep relationship with him, and vice versa, why not he has a deep relationship with the emperor? As long as he talks about the friendship between the emperor and him, even if he refuses to agree immediately, he will inevitably be shaken!

Zheng Guotai waited with bated breath for Gao Pragmatic's reaction, and Gao Pragmatic was silent for a moment, and finally opened his mouth as expected, and said slowly: "I have something to ask, I don't know if Brother Zheng may answer me on behalf of the imperial concubine?" ”

Zheng Guotai was only afraid that Gao Pragmatic would not let go, but he was not afraid of what Gao Pragmatic would ask, so he patted his chest and said: "Situ, if you have any questions, you can only come to me, Guotai knows everything, and there is no end to it!" ”

Gao Pragmatic bowed slightly, and asked softly: "The imperial concubine is so favored, don't you want to be the mother of the world one day?" ”

This question, although Gao Shishi's voice was soft, Zheng Guotai was so shocked that the whole person shook suddenly, subconsciously glanced left and right, and secretly lowered his voice and replied: "Situ is this...... What is this...... Meaning? ”

Gao Pragmatic smiled slightly, but he seemed to be a little disappointed, sighed, shook his head, and said: "It seems that the imperial concubine didn't see the viciousness of Wang Taicang's plan, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”

When Zheng Guotai heard this, he was even more frightened, and hurriedly asked, "What is the interpretation of Situ's words?" ”

High pragmatism is incomprehensible. He Shi Shiran picked up the teacup, took the lid of the cup and gently wiped the floating tea foam that didn't exist, and then took a sip, very leisurely, but he never refused to speak.

Zheng Guotai's mind was full of "the poison of Wang Taicang's plan", but he couldn't think of anything at all, and he was already so anxious that he was sweating in just a dozen breaths.

Gao pragmatic should only be invisible, and drink tea with peace of mind. Zheng Guotai was even more anxious when he saw it, and thought about it for a moment in a mess, but it was still a fog, and finally couldn't help it, got up and knelt in front of Gao Shishi, and said pleadingly: "Situ, Guotai knows that your wisdom is unparalleled, no matter how vicious Wang Xijue's family is, it will not escape your eyes......"

Gao was indifferent, and didn't even make a gesture to help him up. When Zheng Guotai saw it, he was even more sure that Wang Xijue's method must have a ghost, and he didn't care about any face, so he knelt and "walked" two steps forward, grabbed one of Gao Shiji's calves and begged bitterly: "Situ save me...... No, please Situ save my sister, Cathay Pacific will be a cow and a horse in the future......"

"There is no need to be a cow or a horse, and there is no shortage of people who are willing to be a cow and a horse...... Get up and speak. ”

Zheng Guotai originally wanted to play tricks, but although his pragmatic tone was not harsh, there was an indescribable coercion hidden in it, which made Zheng Guotai almost subconsciously get up from the ground.

Zheng Guotai stood in front of him at a loss, like a suspect who had committed a capital crime and was waiting to be released, whether life or death was in the hands of Gao Shishi.

This is actually a national uncle, Gao Pragmatic saw it in his eyes, and he couldn't help but shake his head slightly in his heart. Although the harem system of the Ming Dynasty ensured that the queen and the maiden family of the favorite concubine had no ability to interfere in the government affairs, there were too many straw bag relatives.

"Brother Zheng, you should know that the Ministry of Education didn't plan to say these words."

"Yes, yes, Cathay understands, Cathay understands." Zheng Guotai searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, and added: "Today, Situ Dan has one or two points of advice, and Sister Ah will definitely remember it, and my Zheng family will never forget it." ”

Gao Pragmatic didn't say anything, but continued to himself: "In the matter of worshiping the queen as the mother-in-law, even if the headquarters supports the third son of the emperor, do you think everything is fine?" ”

Zheng Guotai didn't understand the meaning for a while, and didn't answer in a daze.

Gao Pragmatic already knew that this uncle was basically a straw bag, and he didn't bother to wait for him to understand, so he asked directly: "If the final result is that Chang Luo and Chang Xun worship the queen as their mother-in-law at the same time, what about it?" ”

Zheng Guotai was stunned: "At the same time, worship the queen as your mother-in-law?" ”

Gao Pragmatic said lightly: "Is there any doubt about this?" The courtiers were divided into two factions, one faction supported the emperor's eldest son, and the other faction supported the emperor's third son. ”

"Ah, this ......" Zheng Guotai, no matter how stupid he was, heard the bad behind it, and exclaimed: "Isn't that so busy in vain?" ”

Gao Pragmatic spread his hands slightly: "Yes, everyone worships the queen as his mother-in-law, and the eldest son of the emperor still occupies the word 'long', which side is the advantage?" ”

Zheng Guotai felt a chill behind his back and swallowed a mouthful of spit: "Righteousness...... Still in Changluo. Then he immediately felt that this was not good, and added: "But the holy grace is still in Changxun!" ”

Gao Shishi shook his head: "Then the imperial concubine will lose a lot here." ”

"Why did you get involved with my sister again?" Zheng Guotai was a little puzzled and asked with a puzzled expression.

"You've forgotten the premise of this." Gao Pragmatic said lightly: "The reason why Wang Taicang wants to promote the emperor's eldest son to worship the queen as his mother-in-law is to separate the identity of Concubine Wang Gong from the emperor's eldest son, so as not to let the emperor's dissatisfaction with Concubine Wang Gong turn on the emperor's eldest son.

If in the end, the eldest son and the third son of the emperor worship the queen as their mother-in-law, the situation is very different. The identity of the eldest son of the emperor and Concubine Wang Gong is separated, which is a blessing or a curse; If the identities of the third son of the emperor and the imperial concubine are separated...... Brother Zheng thinks it's a blessing or a curse? ”

"Ahh Zheng Guotai actually didn't fully understand the meaning of Gao Shishi's words, but subconsciously felt that it was very bad.

Gao Pragmatic was still mending the knife, and continued: "Besides, if you look at this thing the other way around, it is even worse: Concubine Wang Gong was not favored, and if she was separated from the eldest son of the emperor, she would be separated from the eldest son of the emperor, if the eldest son of the emperor could one day dominate the world, even if she was already driving the crane at that time, she would have to be posthumously crowned as the queen.

But what about the imperial concubine? Regardless of whether the name behind him is guaranteed or not, there is even a major event......"

Although Zheng Guotai's train of thought couldn't keep up, he was still busy asking, "What's the big deal?" ”

Gao Pragmatic sighed and said, "Originally, with the imperial concubine being so favored, maybe...... There is a chance to be a mother in the world, but once the third son of the emperor worships the queen as his mother-in-law, it is an affirmation that the status of the queen is irreplaceable, and no one can surpass it among the harem concubines.

In this way, the status of the imperial concubine has reached the top, and she can only be subservient to the queen forever. On the other hand, if nothing else happens between the two princes, if the imperial concubine becomes the queen one day in the future, the status of the third son's concubine, which could have been easily obtained, will disappear...... Wang Taicang's plan is vicious, does Brother Zheng understand it now? ”

Zheng Guotai was stunned. Gao pragmatic's words turned several corners, and it was indeed a little twisted, but he felt that he still roughly understood the meaning.

To put it simply, if everything does not change, Sister Ah will actually have a chance to replace the queen and the mother of the world, so that Chang Xun doesn't have to do anything, and he will naturally obtain the status of his son-in-law, and he is naturally His Royal Highness the Prince.

On the other hand, if Chang Luo and Chang Xun both went to worship the queen as their mother-in-law, then nominally Concubine Wang Gong and Sister A have nothing to do with their sons, and their mothers are all queens, which actually consolidates the status of the queen's mothers and weakens the presence of their biological mothers.

If this is the case, not only will Sister A never have the opportunity to win the queen's throne again in her life, but the disadvantage on Chang Xun's side still exists - because Chang Luo is still a brother, and he is still a long-term brother.

Zheng Guotai was shocked again into a cold sweat, and even the soles of his feet were wet.

Straight sissy thief! Wang Xijue, you are a vicious villain who has no son, and you almost killed our Zheng family! Damn, why did our Zheng family offend you, you want to hurt us like this?

Zheng Guotai was furious and frightened, and hurriedly asked: "Situ, you are really Zhuge alive, and you can see through Wang Xijue's vicious tricks at a glance." It's just that he designed it like this, and my Zheng family didn't accept it, and it wasn't if I didn't accept it, I was really a former wolf and a tiger, in a dilemma, and ...... Please also ask Situ to show us a clear way, whether it is the imperial concubine or Chang Xun in the future, I will never forget your life-saving grace today! ”

This time, Zheng Guotai actually felt a little obedient, and didn't put himself in it, only said the imperial concubine and the third son of the emperor, and said the words "life-saving grace" very seriously.

The grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, let alone the grace of saving lives?

Gao Pragmatic had made it clear just now that he was not interested in the "Shang Father" way of repaying his kindness, but Zheng Guotai couldn't think of any other way to repay his kindness for a while, and he didn't dare to agree indiscriminately because he didn't have the approval of Emperor Zheng's concubine, but it would never be wrong to emphasize the "life-saving grace".

Gao Pragmatic still didn't take any stubble to repay the gratitude, but just sighed: "If this matter is easy to do, Wang Taicang will not have the momentum he has had in recent days." ”

Although Zheng Guotai is not smart, he is not confused at this moment. If he can't think of a way, then it's useless to go to other people by himself. Therefore, Zheng Guotai seemed very firm, knelt down and begged again, and said: "Please Situ for the emperor's sake, save my sister, save Chang Xun!" ”

Gao pragmatic breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Zheng Guotai, who was kneeling on the ground, and said in his heart: You finally said a smart word today, with this sentence "For the emperor's sake", it will be much more real when I open my mouth again, and the reason is more reliable.

"Alas, Brother Zheng, get up." Gao pragmatic stretched out his hand to help, and Zheng Guotai really didn't move.

Gao Pragmatic looked like he had no choice but to sigh again: "Okay, okay, for the emperor's sake, I will make an exception today to say a few more words...... You get up and listen. ”

Zheng Guotai got up in surprise and threw out a bunch of flattering words as if he didn't want money.

Gao pragmatic beckoned to him, Zheng Guotai quickly closed his mouth obediently, and hurriedly came over.
