Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Look at your quick temper, sit down, sit down, and you will calm down after you finish speaking," Defang said. , I am old and sick, so I can't drag Guangxiang down. When Guangxiang escapes, he can set up a memorial tablet for himself and his husband. Guangxiang took a few mouthfuls of steamed buns, drank a full stomach of water, carried his mother on his back, gritted his teeth, and continued heading south. God had mercy on him. After Guangxiang and his mother walked for a day, they met a business traveler from the Song Dynasty who was going to the Northern Han Dynasty. They brought their mother and son into the capital. That year, the capital recruited the imperial guards. Guangxiang ran to sign up and was selected. After a few years, he was assigned to the Nanqing Palace of Guwang as a guard. A year later, he became a guard. After becoming the goalkeeper, the Gu Wang wanted to assign him another post, but he asked to stay in the post. The Gu Wang asked him why, so he told the Gu Wang. From that day on, Guangxiang was very filial to his mother, and the food was served on the table He didn't move his chopsticks until his mother finished eating, served the soup and medicine himself, knelt down to say hello to him in the morning and evening, and washed his mother's feet and covered her quilt. The neighbors all said that Guangxiang was a filial son, but he always felt that he was the most unworthy son. Filial piety, even today, Guangxiang still regrets the thought of abandoning his mother back then, so he would look up at the gate for a long time every day, saying that he must guard it, and never abandon the gate of conscience."

"Well, it's a good thing he didn't really leave, so how is his mother now?"

"The eyes are still the same, but life is much better. Although the lonely king didn't give him a new job, his monthly salary has increased a lot. Later, Guangxiang also got married. He was on duty during the day, and his wife took care of his mother. At night, he went back to serve himself. Every day before going to bed, his mother touches Guangxiang's face and tells him that my son is a filial son and the best. Guangxiang will cry very sadly every time."

"Guangxiang is indeed a dutiful son, and the veteran admires him somewhat."

"Yes, although Guangxiang thought of abandoning his mother back then, he was indeed trapped by hunger and poverty. However, he knew his way back when he lost his way. The ancients said that no one has made mistakes, and mistakes can be corrected. There is nothing good about it. What's more, Guangxiang is filial For more than twenty years, the gods will not only not blame him, but also bless him."

"Your Highness, what you said is that it is difficult for ordinary people to be like Guangxiang. No wonder you said just now that you have to send someone to take care of his mother so that he can feel at ease."

"Yes, General Huyan won't beat him now, will he?"

"No, no! Hahaha, not only will the old minister give him a tiger skin, but he will also give his mother a gold-cast birthday old man."

"Okay! Come on, Gu Wang respects General Huyan!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

The two drank a few cups, and De Fang said, "General Huyan, don't drink at night, the ministers of civil and military affairs will follow your majesty to Daxiangguo Temple to pray for rain tomorrow."

"Don't worry, the old minister will not miss you, my lord, will it rain tomorrow?"

"The Lonely King doesn't know if he won't come down."

"Didn't you persuade His Majesty to pray for rain in advance?"

"Yes, but. Oh, don't ask."

"My lord, you must have received some inspiration, right?"

"Didn't you also hear what the people said?"

"That's right, the common people say that His Royal Highness the Eight Sage Kings is a strange person, praying for rain in advance must have been inspired, and it will definitely rain tomorrow."

Defang rubbed her forehead and thought: This Nangong is really going to kill the lonely king.
