Wishing You Eternal Happiness - Chapter 106
The emperor and the child disappeared on the upper floor of Wumen City in the sound of the mountain calls of the officials and the Han generals.
The ceremony was over, but none of the hundreds of civil and military officials on the square left, still gathering there to inquire about the news, talking about the child who suddenly appeared in sight a moment ago.
On such an important occasion, the young boy was not only led by the emperor to the gate tower, but also issued the order of “rectification” on behalf of the emperor.
In common sense, this child should be the great prince Wei to whom the emperor belongs.
Since the emperor ascended the throne, his only son was abolished from the crown prince many years ago, and is still locked in the ancestral land of Gengzhou. Due to the emperor’s inability to do anything in recent years, and the frequent exposure of his old attitude, the officials have become increasingly anxious. Tingzhang, so this guess was also shattered.
The ministers discussed the matter in private, thinking that there would be two possibilities in the future. First, when the emperor always gets a son, all difficulties will be solved. Second, the emperor could only choose suitable children from the clan in the future to adopt and inherit his throne. Never imagined that the situation would change suddenly at the time of Wanshou today.
The officials finally saw the most likely future prince. This was originally a good thing, but before today, no one has seen this child, and no one knows his origin. So at this moment, the official secretary He Gongpu and the ritual secretary Zhang Shiyong, You Sima Luxiang, and Liu Jiushao, who usually walked around in the imperial library, were all targets of besieging.
While the pigeon flock in front of Chengtian Gate was still hovering in the air, a rumor spread quickly.
It is no secret that the Liuyang king was once again called into Beijing this time, but it is said that his visit to Beijing this time not only celebrated his birthday, but also brought a child to the emperor.
This child is the emperor’s own grandson, and his father is the dragon son who was left behind when the emperor was young. This son did not want to return to the clan, so he entrusted the emperor’s grandson to the insider of the year, the king of Liuyang. Now, the king of Liuyang is ordered to take the emperor’s grandson. Brought back to the capital, recognize the ancestor and return to the clan.
The grandson brought by King Liuyang is the child who was held by the emperor today.
This news completely upset the court, and before the evening, new rumors flowed out.
It is said that the matter started thirty years ago. After Emperor Tianxi ascended the throne, he trapped Jinshangfan, who was still the king of the cloud, in Yunnan. At that time, the king of Yunzhong was young and energetic, and his heart was depressed. For more than half a year, he had privately left the domain and traveled around. When he was traveling through Xiangxi where the Liuyang King was, he came across a goddess (female priest) and formed a two-person relationship. But the woman has a lot of love for her people, and she doesn’t want to go back to Yunnan with the king of Yunzhong. The king of Yunzhong also goes out for a long time. He needs to go back to the vassal dynasty. He has no choice but to separate from the woman. For twenty years, because the king of the cloud was even more jealous of Emperor Tianxi, there was a mistake, and for many years, the royal blood could not be returned to the clan. Now that the emperor is old and thinking about relatives day by day, he ordered the king of Liuyang to take his grandson back to the capital, choose a day to worship the Taimiao, and recognize his ancestors.
Mr. and Mrs. Liuyang were witnesses to this matter for 30 years, and they were also the executors who brought the emperor’s grandson back to the imperial palace.
The ministers were stunned.
Some were suddenly enlightened, some were extremely excited, and some were full of doubts.
Suddenly, I finally understood why the king of Liuyang, who had been unknown for decades, received the emperor’s bluish eyes, and it was highly rewarded.
Excited is that Wei has a grandson. No wonder the emperor is unwilling to re-establish a prince, and looking at the emperor’s posture today, he must make that child the emperor’s grandson.
What is doubtful is the credibility of the rumors about the “Goddess” in the background of this child’s life.
But that child is the emperor’s grandson, there is no doubt about this.
The blood of the royal family, especially the descendants of the emperor, is related to Jiangshan Sheji, and there is no room for difference. If the child’s origin is unknown, how could he be deceived by the king of Liuyang with the emperor’s shrewdness?
He, Zhang, Lu and others, after learning of the rumors, were asked, they were silent and did not make a statement, just waiting for the emperor’s next move.
In fact, compared to the shocked or suspicious courtiers, the surprise in the hearts of the Liuyang Wang and his wife who came to Beijing again this time is truly indescribable.
Four years ago, Liuyang Wang and his wife Zaien came out of Beijing. The following year, Li Yuangui secretly came to the palace and passed the emperor’s secret decree, asking him and his wife to “give” an old son. The princess then wrapped her abdomen and thickened it month by month. After the “pregnancy” in October, she “birthed” a “son”. In order to conceal people’s attention, the king of Liuyang went to the folks to secretly embrace a baby boy into the mansion, and then reported it to the clan’s mansion. , Into the clan disc score.
The Liuyang couple knew in their hearts that three years ago, the emperor wanted him and his wife to “birth” this “son”. It should be used in the name of “family adoption” to support a child that the emperor really wanted to become the prince. The matter is very important, and the couple kept their mouths tight. For three years, they have kept the child they carried in the palace. They rarely show up and make all preparations. Only when the imperial decree arrives in the future, they will send the true prince in the name of the prince of the palace. Enter the capital.
Regardless of who the emperor wants to establish as the prince, this method has been planned since four years ago, and it can be said to be comprehensive today.
The couple did not expect that at the end of the day, for some unknown reason, the emperor had abandoned this plot for several years. Obviously, it was more foolproof, and it would never allow the minister to have any doubts.
Now, the saying of “Goddess” back then is not impossible. If the emperor’s wrists are strong enough to press the four directions, it will naturally be possible. No minister dared to doubt that an emperor would randomly recognize the next child of unknown blood to serve as the grandson of the emperor. However, compared with the “adoptive succession” that has been carefully planned for several years, this method is obviously a bit hasty.
Liuyang Wang and his wife were really surprised. But would the emperor’s order not be followed? He did what he instructed and did nothing secretly.
…
In the banana garden, the Jiafu people are separated from the many halls, and at noon, in the faint, it seems that they have also heard the sound of long live the waves of mountains and seas in the southeast.
Standing at the top of the white arch bridge by the fish pond in the garden, she was frightened, looking in the direction of the garden gate, eagerly waiting for her son to return.
This is the highest place in the garden, and the line of sight can cross the fence and see the corridor outside.
At a moment, she finally saw a group of people coming from a distance at the end of the tunnel. Ci’er was hugged by Cui Yinshui and came towards this direction, followed by a few palace people behind her.
Ci’er seemed to be impatient, and struggling to crawl from Cui Yinshui’s body from a distance, spread her legs, and ran towards this side.
Jia Fu got off the bridge and rushed out.
“Mother! Mother!”
Ci’er saw Jiafu and ran faster, like a bird, plunged into Jiafu’s arms and hugged her neck.
Gaffer hugged her son’s small body tightly, holding back the tears that were about to come out of her eyes. Ci’er was overjoyed at first, but gradually, her smile disappeared, looking at Jiafu, she raised her hand and touched her eyelids: “Mother, are you upset?”
Jiafu shook her head and kissed her son’s face hard: “My mother is not unhappy. It’s just that I’m so happy to see Ci’er.”
She picked up her son.
Ci’er was finally relieved, and her two soft arms wrapped around Jiafu’s neck.
“I miss my mother every day, but Grandpa Huang said that I won’t be able to send me back until after the present. Mother, many people are standing there today. When they shouted together, the voices were loud and loud. It’s just like Dad’s ordering of soldiers in the big school field last fall! Later, a very powerful general came and brought many bad guys over. The general said, those are bad guys who harmed my big Wei people, and Grandpa asked me to help him. Speaking of Fa-rectification. Mother, I want to grow up quickly and fight bad people like Dad and that general…”
When Jia Fu was with his son, he turned around and entered. Cui Yinshui took Ci’er clothing in his hand and followed carefully. He secretly watched Jia Fu’s face and did not dare to approach him, but stood far away at the door.
Ci’er got up very early this morning, and experienced this grand scene for him, ignorant but not fully aware of the meaning, and finally returned to his mother’s side, leaning in Jiafu’s arms, and gradually Feeling sleepy, he fell asleep while talking.
…
After the dedication ceremony, the emperor returned to the living room of the palace.
The ceremony in the morning seemed to exhaust the emperor’s energy. When he returned, he changed his dress and lay down. The emperor came to see, the emperor took the medicine, closed his eyes and rested for a while, then sat up in his clothes, and asked Li Yuangui to bring the memorial to the dragon bed. Li Yuangui saw that he was still languid, tired, and didn’t want to take it. He persuaded him to rest again. While talking, a palace man rushed to the palace and said that Pei Youan had not recalled Beijing, and went straight to the palace gate. At the second gate of the palace, he was stopped by the guard, and the guard rushed to report and asked what to do.
Li Yuangui’s heart jumped.
Although he knew that Pei Youan would return, he didn’t expect to return so quickly. Looking at the emperor, he couldn’t help but worry a little.
Just a moment ago, the emperor looked gray and exhausted. The moment he heard the news, the whole person suddenly shuddered. He was refreshed, slammed, and turned over from the dragon bed. He said, “Tell him to come in, don’t stop!” Then he urged Li Yuangui to comb his hair and change his clothes.
The palace man took the order and left in a hurry. Li Yuangui was helpless and hurried to call people inside. He served the emperor combing his hair and changing clothes. Soon after he changed his neat clothes, the emperor personally picked a five-color jade belt, tied it on his waist, and then went to the mirror. Before, I personally took a hairbrush, combed my beard in the mirror, took a photo left and right, touched the Huafa on the side of the temple, turned his head to look at Li Yuangui, shot his eyes, and said in a deep voice, “I will wait for him to come! Know you! Don’t tell him that I’m sick half a word!”
Li Yuangui knew that the emperor was so strong throughout his life, and he refused to admit defeat. Seeing that he was still like this at this moment, he refused to show weakness at all. After he retreated, he was worried in his heart.
…
Pei Youan was standing in front of the second gate of the imperial palace. Opposite him was a row of guards who were ready to look at him. The leader of the big man knew him and knew that he was now in Longyou Jiedushi. He didn’t dare to offend him too much, but he didn’t. Dare to let him in, and bowed forward and said, “Master Pei, please don’t embarrass the villain. The villain has sent someone to report. If there is a reply, the villain will not stop him.”
Pei Youan closed his eyes and said nothing, trying his best to calm the anger rising in his chest at the moment.
Hu Ren has never given up coveting the land of Hetao. A few years ago, Wang Ting changed hands. In the past few years, according to the news that Pei Youan has successively learned, the other party has been secretly gaining momentum.
He has a hunch that a great war like that decades ago will come again sooner or later. Maybe today, maybe tomorrow. Therefore, in this early spring, when the weather was slightly warmer, he stepped up his guard and went out to patrol the side early.
Half a month ago, he finally finished his patrol and returned to Suye City, only to find that Jiafu and Ci’er, the mother and son, were both connected to the capital. Yang Yun was controlled by someone sent by the emperor and did not ask him to give Report the news yourself.
He came out of Beijing and came to Suye City in the autumn of the second year of Zhaoping. Four or five years have passed since then. On that day, at the moment when he learned that Jiafu’s mother and son had been “accepted” into the capital by the emperor while he was not there, he had a hunch in his heart.
In his nearly thirty years of life, he had the most peace of mind in this short few years of peaceful life. From then on, he was afraid that it would be broken and would never be able to return.
After he confessed the matter, he set off on his way that night, and finally arrived today.
However, he was still late.
Outside Chengtianmen, he met old colleagues who came out one after another to finish the ceremony. Liu Jiushao rushed towards him in a surprise or astonished gaze.
Liu Jiushao thought he was called to Beijing to participate in the Longevity Ceremony. He was deeply sorry for his lateness and told him that just now, the emperor actually showed up at the Meridian with a three or four-year-old child in his arms. Above the tower, it is said that the child is the grandson of the dragon son born to Yunnan when the emperor was young. Obviously, the emperor intentionally made the child the crown prince.
With a slight smile on his face, Pei Youan exchanged a few words with Liu Jiushao and those old colleagues who came up. After parting with excuses, he turned around and broke into the palace until he was intercepted by the guards.
Above the corridor in the distance, an **** ran out of breath, and before running closer, he shouted: “Long live the Lord Pei to see him–“
Pei Youan suddenly opened his eyes, pushed away the Han general who was still in front of him, stepped in and strode away.
…
Gaffer settled down with his son, and lay down outside of him, closed his eyes, thinking about Pei Youan.
Counting time, he should have returned to Suye City early, presumably at this moment, he already knew the news of himself and Ci’er, but he didn’t know when he would arrive in the capital.
The emperor insisted on going his own way, still pushing his son in front of the people of the world, and when Pei Youan arrived, he knew what had happened, but he didn’t know what kind of conflict the two would have.
Jiafu thought of the anger that Pei Youan might have, and the scene of the emperor fainting and vomiting blood last night appeared in front of him. He was in a confused mood. How did he fall asleep? After thinking about it, he heard Cui Yinshui’s voice cautiously calling himself from outside, and he got out of bed and walked out.
“Madam, my godfather told me to sue you, saying that Master Pei has just arrived and entered the palace, and now he is heading to Long live…”
Cui Yinshui bowed, his face was burnt, but he was cautious and hesitating.
Jiafu was taken aback, but he didn’t expect Pei Youan to arrive so quickly!
Jiafu naturally understood the purpose of Li Yuangui sending Cui Yinshui to spread the word.
This old eunuch, who was loyal to the emperor, must also be worried that the two father and son will have another conflict, and have lingering fears about what happened last night. This is what called him to pass, and I hope that the angry Pei Youan will be able to get rid of some after seeing her. Anger would not rush the emperor too much.
Gaffer was dissatisfied with the emperor’s insistence, and some could not understand the emperor’s insistence.
If it is said that he was due to no succession to the throne, then when Xiao Yintang was first abolished, he was fortunate enough to have children in the harem, but for many years, no concubine in the harem had any movement, which is unbelievable.
It is said that even if there is nothing to do, the children of the adoptive clan can become the crown prince.
But he knew that Pei Youan didn’t want to, but he still acted like this!
Now that the matter had happened, she didn’t want to see Pei Youan and the emperor clashed head-on as before. Even if you don’t consider the emperor’s current physical condition, this is no longer helpful.
Jiafu asked Cui Yinshui to look at Ci’er, and hurried over under the guidance of the imperial palace.
Pei Youan entered the palace in front of him that had been away for several years, walked to the throne, and stopped there, his figure motionless.
Xiao Lie sat in a precarious manner, looked up and down Pei Youan, and finally slowly raised his gaze, staring at the two gazes he cast: “For a few years outside, I even forgot the rules of Mianjun. Should I call the Ministry of Rites to send someone? Teach you again?”
Pei Youan slowly knelt down, and bowed to the emperor in front of him: “Pei Youan sees his majesty the emperor.” Words and sentences, as if from the deepest part of the heart and chest.
Xiao Lie said lightly: “Flat yourself.”
Pei Youan got up and said, “I am going to Beijing this time without him, in order to bring back my wife and children. Long live, please call someone here, I will take her mother and son out of the palace, and immediately return to the customs.”
The emperor said: “Your wife, you can take it away. Pei Yiyuan, I want to stay.”
Pei Youan watched the emperor with an indifferent expression, his eyes gradually condensed with anger, and gritted his teeth: “His surname is Pei, Fei Xiao, I am his father, and he is my son! Long live this way and take a 13-year-old child to the morning. Gate Tower, have you asked me what I mean?”
“Youan, when you left Xiao Yu privately, did you ask me what you meant?”
The emperor coldly retorted.
“You don’t need to recognize me as your father, and I don’t intend to force you any more. You left Ci’er with me. From now on, I and you will be only monarchs and ministers.”
“Zhen is in Xiyuan Banana Garden, you can take her back!”
