Chapter 217: The Heart-Blocking Enters the Family Tree
On the day of the sacrifice, Gonggong Liu came to Xuanyuan Mansion again. He really didn't want to come again, but when the chief manager passed the word, the bunnies ran faster than the rabbits. People who grow fat can't afford to be hurt!
Xuanyuan didn't glare at him this time, but only looked at Wu Ninghou suspiciously.
That's right, it was Wu Ninghou who came with Gonggong Liu.
Gonggong Liu glanced at the two people who looked at each other and didn't speak, and secretly complained in his heart, so he could only pretend to smile and said: "Lord Ning, the emperor is afraid that you will be bored at home alone, so he specially invited Marquis Wuning to accompany you." ”
Xuanyuan sneered, is this afraid that he will sneak over? More sure that the old man is going to do something bad. It's just-
Xuanyuan faced Wu Ninghou, who looked puzzled and suspicious, and sighed secretly, if he ran away, the old man could immediately punish Wu Ninghou. He has calculated the friendship between the two families, and he wants to use Wu Ninghou to contain himself?
Marquis Wu Ning said at this time: "King Ning doesn't participate in the sacrifice? ”
If people are not present, how can they be included in the family tree? What is the idea of these two people?
In fact, Xuanyuan didn't want to go, he still had a mask on his face, and I don't know how the old man would explain his biological mother. Thinking about it again, if the old man really did something, since he could move, he could change it, so why make a fuss now? He smiled calmly: "I'm grounded." Master Hou, have I been with you twice? It's just that Xi'er won't go, let her cook a few side dishes, and I'll accompany you to drink two more cups. ”
Marquis Wuning was suspicious, isn't this kid falling out with the emperor, and he really can't enter the family tree?
"Gonggong Liu, you take Kang'er with you."
Father-in-law Liu was busy picking up Xuanyuan Kang.
When Marquis Wu Ning saw him leaving, he asked Xuanyuan, "What are you doing?" If you don't go on such a big day, how can you enter the family tree? Kang'er is not your son? ”
How can there be only the son who remembers it, and Lao Tzu's column is empty?
Xuanyuan was poked in some thoughts, and smiled dryly: "Isn't this making my father angry again, he doesn't want to see me." If you don't go, you won't go, and if you quarrel there, it's not a trivial matter to be grounded. ”
Wu Ninghou didn't say much after hearing this, and he didn't get involved in royal affairs.
Yang Nianci sent Xuanyuan Kang away with thousands of instructions, she is a woman. You are not allowed to enter the Imperial Shrine, therefore, you do not need to go. In all dynasties, only the queen was eligible to enter. I heard Xuanyuan not to go. Just thinking that his current identity can't be revealed to the world, it's better if he doesn't go, so he doesn't think much about it. Knowing that Wu Ninghou wanted to stay at his home, he simply asked people to pick up Mrs. Wu Ninghou and Mrs. Yang together.
The emperor worships his ancestors, except for Xuanyuan Ji and Xuanyuan Kang. Only brought Duanwang. None of the other princes and grandsons were called.
When King Duan was puzzled by the simple sacrificial procedures this time, the emperor opened his mouth and ordered everyone to withdraw, leaving only Prince Bao.
King Duan understood that he was going to go to the genealogy jade plate. led the two little nephews who had already visited their ancestors and retreated in an orderly manner. I still keep thinking in my heart, why didn't King Ning come?
The heavy door closed tightly, and the emperor nodded at Prince Bao.
Prince Bao washed his hands first, dried them with a thin white cotton cloth, and then took out a unique golden jade key and opened the golden silk nanmu box in the middle. Take out the genealogy made of jade plate and gold wire.
The jade plate is very thin, and only the royal lineage is recorded on it, and the number of them is also considerable.
Prince Bao spread it on the table in front of the emperor, slowly unfolded it, and the sound of the jade plates touching and rubbing against each other was very good.
The emperor looked at the jade plate in front of him, it was his own generation, in addition to himself, those brothers who wanted their own lives had already gone underground and didn't know if they had been reincarnated. Of his son's generation, only two of the seven or eight names are still alive.
The emperor closed his eyes. Sighing deeply, is this retribution?
Prince Bao stood quietly aside, his eyes down, knowing that the emperor had remembered the old things. If I hadn't stood in line early. I'm afraid I'm going down with those people, right? How many of the people who can be emperors and those who fight to the end are soft-hearted?
When the emperor opened his eyes again, it was already silent, and he picked up the brush dipped in gold dust next to him, and muttered again and again. Falling steadily, write Xuanyuan Li's name.
The emperor put down the pen, and Prince Bao was shocked when he saw it.
"Your Majesty, this... This... It's not right..."
How can King Ning be hung in the name of the queen? If everyone outside knows about it, what does it mean that a son-in-law is born?
The emperor glanced at Prince Bao, then looked up at the dense ancestral tablets in front of him, and said lightly: "The prince has been gone for many years, how can I let the queen have no descendants to remember?" ”
"But..."
"You know this, I know, King Ning won't tell him there."
Prince Bao is puzzled, and he doesn't even tell King Ning? Who remembers the Queen?
The Emperor sighed, "When I come down from there, tell him that there will be no storms." ”
Prince Bao's heart ached, why did the emperor mention the words that implied that he couldn't do it several times? Could it be that the emperor's body has been seriously ill since the prince went?
The emperor stopped talking, only looked down at the jade saucer in a daze.
Prince Bao looked along and saw that the emperor was looking at the queen's name, and he was also very emotional. The emperor and queen are deeply affectionate and envious of others. But how can the emperor be dedicated to one person and affectionate to another? The queen went early, and she didn't dare to say it on her face, but everyone knew how many selfish means the queen must have suffered before she died. If the emperor is more cold and distant from the queen, don't you know that the queen can live well until now?
Prince Bao took a few steps to the side, for fear of disturbing the emperor's thoughts.
I don't know how long it took, Prince Bao felt that his legs were numb and he didn't dare to move. The emperor woke up from the past, sighed, picked up the pen again, and fell calmly.
Prince Bao saw that the emperor was under the crown prince and King Ning, and wrote a few words. There are sleeves to cover it, and it is not visible.
"Put it away." The Emperor raised his pen and commanded.
Prince Bao moved, and his legs trembled... That's sour.
The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Did I get distracted just now?" You're too careful not to sit next to you for a while? ”
Prince Bao's belly, you stand and I sit, I don't want to go down yet.
The emperor laughed, put down the pen, and personally rolled up the jade plate and put it back in the Nanmu box. Prince Bao struggled to come over at this time, dropped the lock, and carefully put away the key close to his body.
came out, and the emperor who was in a good mood saw King Duan playing with his two nephews, Xuanyuan Ji looked shy, but Xuanyuan Kang pouted and looked dissatisfied.
"What are you talking about?"
King Duan hurriedly turned around and said with a smile: "Father." Erchen was talking to his nephews. ”
The father and the emperor came out, and these two are already serious emperors and grandsons, King Duan glanced at Xuanyuan Ji with an uncertain gaze.
Mrs. Geng couldn't come in, and Xuanyuan Ji seemed a little cautious. But no one will bully him, and he gets along very happily with his little friend Xuanyuan Kang.
Well, it's just his own thoughts, as for what Xuanyuan Kang thinks...
"Grandfather Huang, Brother Ji can't play anything. Kicking the ball will not. I can't roll sandbags, I can't jump grids, I can't do puzzles, I can't climb trees, I can't dig birds' nests, I can't hit sparrows, I can't mud-"
"Ahem, okay, okay, your brother likes to read and write, who is like you. Have a virtue with your father. ”
What are you talking about? Puzzles don't seem to sound good? But the first few are girls, right? The back one is too naughty, right? Still muddy? How were those two taught?
King Duan also smiled and said, "You can't write yet, your brother will be better." ”
The kid who can confidently say that he can't write, he's only seen this one.
Xuanyuan Kang sneered: "I just didn't learn." ”
Duanwang... This nasty bear child.
Xuanyuan Kang saw that Xuanyuan Ji was still looking at him, so he said, "I will take you to play in the future." Every day I die and read into a lump of wood. ”
Xuanyuan Ji wanted to nod, but he still remembered Mrs. Geng's words, and his little face was very entangled.
The emperor smiled secretly in his heart, but said: "Ji'er likes to read, and the prince did the same back then." Sitting in the East Palace all day long, either practicing Chinese or practicing calligraphy, she was quiet like a little girl. ”
Xuanyuan Ji's big eyes shone with adoration. No wonder my mother said that she had to work harder to read, it turned out that my father was like this.
Xuanyuan Kang sighed like a little adult: "Uncle Crown Prince is so pitiful." You can't play. ”
The emperor laughed and scolded "naughty", but he was sad in his heart, if he was not afraid of being attacked by an unknown black hand. The crown prince will also be like King Ning. The prince can climb from the beginning, but he doesn't like to be detained, and he climbs wherever he hasn't been. It's just that I've suffered a lot of losses when I'm older, and gradually I don't like to move around.
The emperor's mood was uncontrollably low again.
King Duan knew at a glance that the emperor remembered the prince again, and he was not angry. How many things did I do and how many hardships I suffered in order to attract the attention of my father when I was a child, did I practice words and read fewer books? The old man is too eccentric!
"Father, I don't know what King Ning ranks into?"
The emperor touched Xuanyuan Kang's little head: "Line five." ”
Duan Wang was stunned: "Five? Then the original ranking of the younger brothers went down in order? ”
The emperor shook his head: "No change." Xiao Wu died early, and he was not included in the family tree, so there is no need to reorder. ”
Duan Wang stopped talking, Xiao Wu went three days after he was born, and the old man was very fond of Xiao Wu's biological mother at that time, and even had high hopes for Xiao Wu, second only to the prince. After Xiao Wu went, the old man was grief-stricken, and the concubine was too sad, but she followed her son in January. The prince, who has been less than three days old, is customary, as long as he has never given birth. It's just that the old man insisted, and the prince standing behind him started from six. Xiao Wu didn't even have a name, but no one could think of the five princes, but now he is cheaper than King Ning.
The emperor sneered in his heart, he had no choice but to send away his and the empress's children, but his son's position could still be kept.
The group came out, and Mrs. Geng, who was anxiously guarding the side, took a few steps forward and looked at Xuanyuan Ji with faint expectation.
Xuanyuan Ji also looked at her with attachment.
The emperor was displeased, and said lightly: "Cycline, now that Ji'er has officially become a royal person, you have to serve more attentively in the future." ”
Mrs. Geng knelt humbly on the ground, bowed deeply, and said respectfully: "Yes." ”
Ji'er is already a serious emperor's grandson, what about herself? As the only woman of the crown prince and the biological mother of the only blood of the prince, she has no identity now, not even the original female official. In addition to seeing the wind and the rudder, the eunuch and palace maid saw that Ji'er was deeply valued by the emperor, and flattered herself. There are all the people in the palace who have status, which one is not disdainful of himself.
originally thought that after Ji'er entered the family tree, the emperor would also promote himself for Ji'er, but at this time, the emperor didn't say a word, and regarded himself as a minion...
Lady Geng felt a deep fear in her heart, it was not uncommon for her to leave her mother and son in the royal family. How many concubines have gone like this, not to mention that they are just a female official, oh no, they are not even female officials now. If the emperor really values Ji'er and can't tolerate such a humble biological mother, it is not impossible to find a noble daughter to replace him. With the imperial power in hand, what unthinkable thing can't be done?
Mrs. Geng knelt on the ground, obviously the cold winter had passed, but she was cold to the bones, she took it for granted, thinking that as long as Ji'er couldn't leave her, she would do it, but if she suddenly "disappeared", it would be useless for Ji'er to cry and shout and insist.
Mrs. Geng was in a panic and didn't know where to go.
King Duan also said lightly: "Father, Ji'er is talented and intelligent, and there are fewer people around him to teach and serve, so it's better to choose some suitable talents." ”
Mrs. Geng's body trembled when she knelt on the ground, this is about to alienate our mother and son?
The emperor nodded when he heard this, but said: "I will find everyone to teach Ji'er, Ji'er's talent follows his father, and it can't be delayed." As for..."
At this time, Xuanyuan Ji seemed to feel something, and softly called "Mother".
The emperor glanced at Mrs. Geng before continuing: "With cycline, Ji'er can feel more at ease." ”
After that, I didn't say anything else.
Mrs. Geng was relieved, and after everyone had passed, she got up, breathed a long sigh of relief, and when she looked up, she was facing a pair of cold eyes, Duan Wang... Mrs. Geng shuddered, and the cold light in it was clearly killing intent.
By the time Xuanyuan Kang was sent back by Gonggong Liu, it was already dark.
Yang Nianci kindly invited Gonggong Liu to come in and sit, Gonggong Liu glanced at Xuanyuan, and ran away.
Wu Ninghou's family had already gone back, and Xuanyuan pulled Xuanyuan Kang and asked carefully.
Xuanyuan Kang is too young to understand so much, but there are people around him, telling him when to do what courtesy, and just don't speak, how can he know anything else?
Xuanyuan asked again and again, but he didn't ask anything, he was depressed, did the old man do anything? Why don't you sneak in and see it yourself? It's just that I'm afraid it's not that easy to get into, right?
Yang Nianci dragged Xuanyuan to the inner room and asked him: "I just wanted to come over, you have a fake face, it's not good to see your ancestors." But what about Kang'er? O thy son, whose name wilt thou remember? Be... Mother? ”
Xuanyuan has always called the queen "mother", and Yang Nianci also called her so.
"But you can't let anyone know about it, can you? Listening to Kang'er, later, there were only the father and the prince there. Do you think Prince Bao knows? ”
Xuanyuan thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know. But I guess that except for my mother, my father will not record me in anyone's name. Otherwise, how can he be worthy of his mother? Even if Prince Bao sees it, his father will be able to pass it. Anyway, as long as Prince Bao keeps his mouth shut, and people outside don't know, what's the matter? ”
Speaking of this, Xuanyuan said coldly: "When I go to the imperial ancestral hall, I must go in the hall openly, and when I get revenge, I will go to my mother to salute." ”
The queen is the only woman who is eligible to enter the imperial shrine, and even the princess is not allowed to enter.
Yang Nianci nodded, still not quite understanding: "Then why didn't you ask you to go, but Kang'er went?" ”
Xuanyuan immediately blocked his heart, pulled Yang Nianci, and quickly changed the conversation, the old man's thoughts must not be leaked. (To be continued.) )
