Chapter 547: A Waste
Wei Yun touched his belly, a confused look on his face.
Wei Zheng comforted his daughter gently: "What Fang Yi did has nothing to do with you, and even less to the child in your belly. It is a descendant of my Wei family. You don't have to worry about anything, just give birth to the child with peace of mind."
Wei Yun was indeed a little confused, not knowing whether she should keep the baby in her belly.
After knowing what Fang Yi had done, she hated him so much that she naturally didn't want to have a child for him, especially since this child was also part of his plan, specifically to threaten her father.
She thought about giving the child a bowl of medicine and killing him.
But after all, this was the flesh and blood growing in her belly, and she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"Dad, thank you."
No matter what she did, her father seemed to tolerate her, which made her feel a little guilty.
Wei Zheng smiled gently and said, "Silly child, why are you thanking your father? Don't worry, I'm still alive and no one can bully you. And my Yun'er is also very strong and won't let anyone bully her."
He knew that even if Zhao Shen didn't come, Wei Yun had already discovered that something was wrong with Fang Yi, and it was only a matter of time before he was rescued.
Moreover, Wei Yun also knew about the stronghold, so even without him, she could still get the military token.
Both father and daughter knew that there was no time to lose. After a few words, Wei Yun went back to rest, while Wei Zheng called his confidants and began to reorganize the military camp.
Zhao Shen also settled down here. He had been running around day and night these days and was indeed a little tired, but he had no intention of sleeping, so he sat by the window waiting for news.
There was a charcoal fire burning in the room, it was so warm that it made people feel sleepy unconsciously.
Seeing that Zhao Shen showed no sign of wanting to rest, Jingzhe made him a pot of tea and asked doubtfully, "Are you really not going to interfere in the affairs of the Shenwu Army? Is that possible, General Wei?"
It's no wonder he was suspicious. In his eyes, Fang Yi was not a powerful person, but it was such a person who drugged Wei Zheng.
If Wei Zheng hadn't wanted to get the military token, he might have been dead by now.
Zhao Shen took a sip of tea and said, "It's easier to avoid an attack than to defend against an arrow from the dark. Fang Yi was able to succeed only because General Wei never suspected him. If he had known who he was, he wouldn't have survived a single day in General Wei's hands. General Wei is the one who knows the Shenwu Army best. The situation is special now, and it would be bad for us to intervene rashly."
Jingzhe understood: "You are right, then what are you worried about?"
He knew Zhao Shen very well. Normally at this time, he should have taken the time to recuperate instead of sitting here waiting.
The prince seems to be worried today.
Zhao Shen paused, then spoke slowly, "According to previous information, Fang Yi has a mistress living in town, and they have two children. The elder one was born before he married Miss Wei. This means he married Miss Wei specifically for General Wei and the Shenwu Army. Does this sound familiar?"
Jingzhe touched the back of his head and asked, "Have you heard of such a thing elsewhere?"
Zhao Shen looked at his bewildered face, giving up hope and reminding him, "Zhao Heng also had an affair with Miss Yao before they got married. What do you think was his plan to marry Ah Shu?"
In his memories of his previous life, Zhao Heng did go to Youzhou after marrying Ji Yunshu, and was cultivated with all his strength by the Ji family father and son, and even took over the army after their death.
Now it seems that what happened to Wei Zheng and his daughter is exactly the same.
Is this the effect of the chess pieces that King Yong has laid out over the years?
Jingzhe suddenly understood: "You mean the Second Young Master wanted to marry a lady in order to gain the military power in General Ji's hands?"
Zhao Shen sneered: "Otherwise, it's a pity that he is a waste, not even as good as Fang Yi."
Things went wrong on the wedding night.
Jingzhe felt that this was not Zhao Heng's fault. Who could have thought that Ji Yunshu would be so aggressive? On the wedding night, the bride did not stay in the bridal chamber properly, and happened to run into the groom fooling around with someone else.
There is no need to say more about this. In a situation like that at that time, most women would actually choose to keep quiet. This is also the reason why Zhao Heng was so unscrupulous.
But Ji Yunshu didn't play by the rules, and she had the confidence to do so and her family to support her.
When Jingzhe thinks back on what happened back then, he finds it unbelievable.
It was because of this that no matter how outrageous Ji Yunshu's actions were, he was not surprised.
She has never been a woman who can be bound by rules and etiquette.
But of course, these words could not be said in front of Zhao Shen. He smiled and said, "Madam is naturally different from ordinary women, but the Second Young Master is indeed useless. Not to mention Madam, even the current Princess Huimin is also incompetent for him."
Although Ji Yunshu and Zhao Shen were involved, they deliberately leaked some things to Wei Yuanmin.
But Zhao Heng was unable to protect the person he loved, and secondly, he had not achieved his goal after marrying Wei Yuanmin. He was undoubtedly a waste.
These words made Zhao Shen smile, and the depression in his heart dissipated at this moment.
Yes, this is no longer the previous life. Youzhou is fine now. With the defenses in place, General Ji will be safe.
They have changed a lot, and what happened in the previous life will not happen again.
What he has to do is to guard the capital and ensure that there are no worries at the border.
"You should also take a rest. I'm afraid we will be very busy next."
Zhao Shen explained Jingzhe.
Before tonight, regardless of whether he can receive news from the capital, he must take action.
Jingzhe was indeed extremely tired. He felt that he could fall asleep even while standing. After hearing this, he immediately went to rest.
Zhao Shen also went to sleep for a while, and when he woke up it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
Wei Zheng was probably busy and didn't come to disturb him.
But Shen Qin is back.
He had been running back and forth between here and the capital in such a short time, and was very tired. He rested for a while, and when he saw Zhao Shen wake up, he opened his eyes and replied, "I have lost contact with the people in the capital. Prince Yong suddenly appeared in the capital a few days ago, and the imperial guards have already turned against him. Fortunately, the emperor reacted quickly and closed the palace gates in time. Prince Yong couldn't get in, and the stalemate has been going on for the past few days."
This was probably the biggest miscalculation by King Yong. The palace was tall and solid, and there were many mechanisms to prevent such things. It was more than just easy to defend and difficult to attack.
As long as they hold their ground and refuse to leave, it will be impossible for Prince Yong to capture the imperial city without tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
And it is absolutely impossible for him to bring more than 10,000 people into the capital without anyone noticing.
No wonder they want to attack the Shenwu Army.
Zhao Shen thought for a moment: "If that's the case, it's easy to solve."
Shen Qin was a little embarrassed: "Although Prince Yong can't enter the palace and can't do anything to the emperor, but now almost all the important officials of the court are in his hands, and many of them have actually rebelled."
Zhao Shen said, "What are you afraid of? Prince Yong can't possibly kill all those court officials. If he didn't care about his reputation, why would he have endured it for so many years?"
