222. The Past
Chu Shaoyuan walked to the top floor of the Star Viewing Pavilion, and saw the emperor standing in front of the Star Viewing Pavilion, looking at the scenery of Yunfu City in a daze, the emperor's stiff face and pursed lips made his cold face a little melancholy, and under the cover of the dark and misty sky in the distance, the feeling of depression and loneliness was even more obvious.
Sensing that there was someone beside him, the emperor turned around and saw that it was Chu Shaoyuan, and a gentle smile rose at the corner of his mouth: "Yishu, you come." β
Chu Shaoyuan strode to the emperor's side, and the emperor pointed to a place in the west and said softly: "That place was the mansion before I ascended the throne......
Chu Shaoyuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at the emperor's fingers, the west is close to the West City, he was a little puzzled, generally the clan with the title will be arranged in the clan camp very close to the imperial city, especially the emperor's son, he will give a good house down, but he didn't expect that after his father had a title, he would be put so far away from the imperial city.
The emperor seemed to think of something, and the smile on his face fell, "I was seventeen years old at that time...... Originally, my father wanted to put my fief in the northwest, so that I would be in the fief in the future, and I would not be allowed to return to Yunfu without a summons, but I couldn't stand the opposition of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and with the request of the queen mother, my father dispelled this idea......"
It is ridiculous to say that the concubine born by the queen should have been the best candidate for the prince, but Emperor Wuzong, who is also the father of the current emperor, went against the grain, he preferred his eldest son and second son, and he had always taken a disregard for his concubine.
The emperor thought about it for a long time before he figured out why.
ββ¦β¦ At that time, Dayan was very martial, your great-grandfather Emperor Taizong was an out-and-out martial artist, since Emperor Taizong inherited the throne from Emperor Mingzu, he expanded Dayan even more than twice the territory, but Emperor Taizong would only fight the country and not govern the country, and several children under his knees also inherited his temperament, so the civil strife at that time was constantly ......"
Emperor Taizong's favorite son is Emperor Wuzong, Emperor Taizong did not want to see that after his death, the world he conquered was not well governed, and became a mess, so before his death, he asked Emperor Wuzong to marry the daughter of the scholarly family who had always been quite famous, that is, Zhu Luan, the eldest daughter of Zhu Xi, who was the first assistant of the cabinet of scholars of Qianyuandian University at that time.
The emperor's face was solemn, without a trace of expression, but there was a hint of anger in his voice.
"It's probably the reason why the martial arts look down on the literati from the bottom of their hearts, my father always doesn't like to listen to my grandfather's construction, at that time, the martial arts had no idea about governing the country, but they looked down on the literati who could be added to the rank and knight without much effort, so the guide zhì The entire court was tense, maybe the father didn't like the queen mother like a woman full of etiquette and dogma......"
Therefore, Emperor Wuzong was tired of the house and Wu, and he always didn't like his sister-in-law.
When the emperor said this, he looked at Chu Shaoyuan's surprised face, reached out and gently touched the cinnabar mole under the corner of his eye, and there was a faint warmth in his voice: "...... The first time I saw your mother, it was also such a season, the weather was cold as if it was going to freeze people's blood, and she was only sixteen years old at the time, and she settled in Yunfu with her family, and came to worship Buddha in the temple on the mountain......"
The dusty past, with the emperor's deep and slow narration, gradually lifted the curtain.
Several brothers became more and more bold because of Emperor Wuzong's preference, and in the cold winter season of Layue, they asked to play polo together, and the ill-intentioned brother deliberately humiliated the gentle and polite younger brother who was raised by the queen when playing polo, and forced him to the mountain at the end of the western suburbs of Yunfu City.
At that time, his martial arts were mediocre, and he could only protect himself at most, and the most effort he did on weekdays was in books, so naturally he couldn't beat a few brothers, but he couldn't do it if he knelt down and begged them for mercy......
He was forced to the edge of the cliff by some of his brothers, and he saw the girl rushing towards him on horseback, and rushed away from the teenagers who were surrounding him, and as soon as he pulled him up, he jumped over the steep cliff, but fortunately the gap between the cliffs was not too far, and they landed firmly on the other side of the cliff.
"At that time, your mother raised her head and said to them, 'Sister, I just can't get used to you bullying dogs......!
clearly didn't recognize him, but saved him, and finally reprimanded him in the tone of the eldest sister when he was leaving, making him laugh.
The future development, just like the first song in the play, the young man with a lofty spirit met a stunning beautiful girl, and since then he has fallen in love with each other at first sight, but he is not a scholar in the play, and she is not a young lady in the play, the difference in identity between them is too great, she can only marry him as a side concubine, and his concubine is Wei Jinhua, the daughter of Emperor Wuzong's newly crowned Anbei Hou in the northwest.
ββ¦β¦ At that time, I was just a prince who was not favored, and your mother followed me, and she was also excluded in various occasions, but your mother was very smart, and she could always use the simplest way to return the humiliation she suffered tenfold and hundredfold. β
Later, because of his growing older, Emperor Wuzong conferred on him the title of prince.
Before he ascended the throne, he was titled Prince Rui, and his mansion was located in the west of Yunfu, not in the clan camp, and the court officials speculated that Prince Rui must not have a sacred heart, so he would be sent to such a far corner, and he couldn't even live in the clan camp, but he never thought that ten years later, Prince Rui would ascend the throne and give those clans who had mocked him a hard slap.
But only he knows in his heart how indifferent his father was to him, and the wise word in the title is still the mother concubine who fought hard and exhausted the strength of the mother family.
Then, the bright girl gave him advice on his side, he gradually abandoned the text and followed the martial arts, and only then did the position in Emperor Wuzong's heart become heavier little by little, until Emperor Wuzong returned to heaven, he was canonized as the prince, such a careful step by step, all learned from such a bright girl.
The first time Chu Shaoyuan heard about his mother's concubine, he couldn't help but ask, "Then why did the concubine ......?"
The emperor didn't speak again, looking in the northwest direction, there was a trace of sadness in his eyes, and after a while, he collected his expression and turned his head to look at Chu Shaoyuan.
"I'm here waiting for you to come back from the northwest, and when you come back, I'll tell you what will happen after that. β
The emperor had a solemn expression on his face, as if he had entrusted the whole world to him, and he nodded heavily.
β¦β¦
After Jian Anli woke up, he went to the East Palace to check Gu Yi's condition, and found that there was no recurrence, and he really stabilized it, so he returned to Chengbo Houfu.
Jian Fengyang sent the Su family to the palace before, learned what happened in the palace, and waited for him to come back in the main courtyard, and when he saw him, he asked: "How is the situation of the prince of Ningguo? Has the emperor seen you? How could the third prince go to the northwest with the prince?"
Jian Anli looked at Jian Fengyang in bad spirits, didn't answer any questions from him, and just said softly: "Master Hou, can you let Li rest for a while, Li is really a little sleepy......"
When Jian Fengyang heard that he had lived in the mansion for almost a month, and he still refused to call his father, he was immediately annoyed, and his angry teeth trembled and scolded: "You rebel son, you don't answer what your father asks you, and you dare to kick your nose in the face like this!" immediately took his arm and didn't allow him to go, and made sure that he told him everything he saw in the palace.
Jian Anli sat on the chair and rubbed his eyes, which were still a little sour, and said indifferently: "Gu Shizi's injuries are too serious, and he is still recuperating in the East Palace. β
Jian Fengyang heard him say that the emperor gave him a small character, and immediately smiled: "Being appreciated by the emperor can be regarded as a help for you, in the future, you will be closer to the prince, it is better to let the prince help you find a martial position in Yan Yunwei." β
Jian Anli was silent for a long time, he didn't talk, he felt that Cheng Bohou was really a little naΓ―ve, he was introduced to the emperor by the third prince, the prince and the third prince were obviously not right, how could he be valued by the prince, he shook his head, went straight back to the house, left Jian Fengyang behind him and ignored him, and the angry Jian Fengyang scolded him behind him for a long time, and then turned around and went to the inner courtyard.
Su Shi sorted out the new clothes he wore for the New Year in the inner room, put Jian Fengyang's clothes from the inside out, wrapped them up, and put them in the cabinet, turned around and saw Jian Fengyang coming in, hurriedly greeted him, and asked softly: "Master Hou, what did Brother Li say?"
Jian Feng's raised eyebrows raised Lao Gao: "This kid doesn't know who he looks like, he is not close to me at all, and he always ignores him when he tells him, so he is angry with me!"
Su Shi comforted: "He is used to being out in the wilderness, and he has just come back, it is inevitable that he will not be adaptable, why should you fight with him." β
Jian Fengyang gradually soothed his brows under the comfort of the Su family, "Speaking of which, Brother Li'er's luck is really good, he went to the palace to see Gu Shizi's illness, and he was given small characters by the emperor, among the young juniors who can be given small characters by the emperor, our family is still the first one in Xungui, the emperor can give him small characters, and his future will not be bad in the future......"
The words and words are all about the importance of this son, which makes the Su family hate it so much that the roots of his teeth itch, Brother Jie has never been so attentive, but he is so attentive to a concubine, she held back the hatred in her heart, and calmed her tone: "What Hou Ye said is that Brother Li'er has a good future in the future, and a good daughter-in-law can also make Hou Ye relax." β
Jian Fengyang smiled and nodded, and then listened to Su Shi and said: "There is still something to discuss with Hou Ye, at the birthday banquet of the old lady of the Xie family before, the concubine listened to Mrs. Xia's meaning, she took a fancy to our Brother Jie and intended to marry our family, I don't know what Hou Ye thinks?"
Jian Feng frowned and thought about it, thinking of the recent situation in the court, and the two holy decrees connected with the emperor, his eyes shone brightly, "Why didn't you say it earlier, Ming'er, you will go to the Xia family to propose marriage, and settle this matter as much as possible!"
