Brother Song Taizu

Chapter 12 Always a son

"Check, check, it's not good, it's not good."

In the front office of the palace, Zhao Kuangyin frowned dissatisfied and said, "Why are you panicking? Is the sky falling?"

"No, it's your mother-in-law, she, she, she...she, she is here to see you."

Zhao Kuangyin said in surprise: "My mother came to see me. What's wrong with this?"

"Oh, there's an inspection, your ma'am, she...she's here with a stick, saying she wants to beat you. You should hide away, this, this doesn't look good."

Zhao Kuangyin looked confused: "Why...why? Why did my mother beat me?"

"It's the beautiful young master. The beautiful young master... he... he ran away from home. The beautiful young master only left a letter to your father's court. He disappeared this morning. He said he was... he went to Luzhou. Yes."

"what?"

Zhao Kuangyin stood up immediately and became anxious: "Why is he going to Luzhou? Doesn't he know that it is Li Jun's territory? He doesn't know that Li Jun is unwilling to accept me. He has been there for a long time. Opposite meaning? I...he made me so angry! No wonder he was so mysterious and didn't tell me, he, he, he, he was too courageous!"

Just as he was cursing himself, the old lady came in with a walking stick.

After all, Lao Zhao's family is a family of generals. I saw that the old lady was able to do tricks with a cane, which was no worse than Zhao Kuangyin's Panlong Stick. She didn't say a word and just smashed the bad guys.

Zhao Kuangyin was so frightened that he jumped three feet high and shouted quickly: "Mom, calm down! Calm down, this is the front secretary of the palace! You... I also check in front of the palace after all, can you save some face for me?"

Hearing this, the old lady angrily slammed her walking stick on the ground and cursed angrily: "You are now the No. 1 in the world, the civil servants and generals of the dynasty, you can use them as you like, you, why do you do such a dangerous thing?" Use your brother? Is there no one left?! Couldn’t all the civil and military ministers of the dynasty find someone more suitable than your brother?"

"Mom, I don't know! I don't know anything. Third brother didn't tell me anything when he chatted with me before. How do I know that this kid has such a right idea! No mom, what on earth is that brat doing? What did you say? Please show me his letter quickly!"

The old lady snorted angrily, then showed the letter to Zhao Kuangyin, and then sat on a chair and cried alone: ​​"My poor Yao, he is still so young, he has to work hard for you, his elder brother, but he still... He is still so young when he has to go to Luzhou to take risks alone, and Luzhou is Li Jun’s territory. My Yao, I was pregnant for ten months and gave birth to Yao after half my life was gone."

After that, he pointed at Zhao Kuangyin and yelled: "It's all your fault! It's all your fault that you, the eldest brother, didn't treat him well. You refused to give him a high-ranking official job. You insisted on forcing him to make this stupid bet with you. This kid I'm angry because I was forced to do nothing by you, so...that's why...Oh, my poor Yaoer~, Xiangbaoer, come here, don't hide and let me hit you!"

After reading Zhao Kuangmei's message, Zhao Kuangyin's expression changed drastically. Even his mother couldn't care about it. He shouted loudly: "Here comes someone! Send me an order to have Shi Shouxin and Han Lingkun prepare their troops immediately." The whole army will be mobilized within one day, and the troops will march into Zezhou. Tell me, if anything happens to my third brother, I will personally conquer him and kill his whole family!"

After giving the order, Zhao Kuangyin was still shocked when he looked at the letter Zhao Kuangmei left for him, and could not calm down for a long time.

This kid... his heart is too big!
Although he was worried, he was also vaguely proud.

Hey, he is indeed my brother.Better than the second child.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a thud, and the melon on his head came into close contact with the old lady's walking stick.

"So what if you are just checking? So what if you become the emperor? Since then, I am also your mother. Just stand there and let me give you another blow!"

Zhao Kuangyin smiled bitterly when he heard this, and had to say: "Mom, we are both sons. You are too partial. When I was 16 years old, you and my father kicked me out of the house and asked me to go out alone in the world. When I was at my lowest, I was penniless and almost starved to death. I secretly went to other people's vegetable farmers' fields to eat raw cabbage, and then I barely survived. Why were you so reluctant to leave me when I left home? The third brother was just an envoy, so you just What about this? You are a little bit favoritistic about one thing and the other."

The old lady's eyes widened: "Can this be the same? You are the eldest son!"

"........."

Zhao Kuangyin could only smile bitterly, what else could he say?

The young son is amazing!

I had no choice but to console her repeatedly: "Mom, don't worry, I'm still here after all. Besides, Li Jun is also a veteran who has been in the world for decades. He has more seniority than dad. Even if the third brother can't make it this trip, he You’re not just bullying him as a child, are you?”

"Besides, since ancient times, heroes have come out of purgatory and have always been rich and noble. If you and my father hadn't been so cruel that I left home and wandered around the world, how could I be where I am today? The third child is our Zhao family after all. This is not necessarily a bad thing for him or the country. I really admire his courage to think and do things, which is better than the second child."

The old lady nodded when she heard this, and sighed: "When people get older, they just want to tease their grandchildren. This intention is far less ruthless than it was back then. Besides, today is different from the past, and you are about to undergo Zen." , then shouldn’t your brother, relying on your care, live a more comfortable life? Even if it’s a little more tiring, why should he be like you and your father, who only earn fame with their heads high? "

"Hey~, you are all grown up, but boss, the third child has a stronger temper. If he can come back and make contributions this time, you must keep your word and give him a high official to do it. I don’t dare to treat one favorably against another anymore.”

"I understand, mother. When he comes back, I will tie him up and let you beat him up."

"You said that nonsense. If he comes back with meritorious service, I won't be happy enough. How can I hit him? If he comes back without meritorious service, he must be depressed. How can I be willing to beat him?"

"........."

Who is favoring one over the other?

"Besides, don't think that I don't know. When your father kicked you out of the house, he asked you to join Wang Yanchao. You were living on the street penniless. It was you who lost in gambling, and it was all blamed on us? What did you do? You deserve it, whoever asked you to gamble should let you remember it for a long time."

Zhao Kuangyin's face became more and more miserable when he heard this, but he could only agree quickly and obediently. After all, no matter how prominent his position was, he could be awesome in front of others, but in front of the old lady, he would always be his son.
