The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the leader of the Jinyi Guard who accompanied him wanted to ask for instructions on whether he wanted to change the car. However, looking at King Wei's expression, he didn't bother with it, but asked the soldiers to hold up a big silk umbrella for King Wei. The eyes of the king of Wei under the big umbrella were gentle and misty, but the leader and soldiers of the brocade guard who followed him were poured into the armor by the rain, and their hearts were cold.

"Your Highness, don't get sick." The leader of the Jinyi Wei had blue lips in his own cold, but he was thinking about King Wei in his heart. He was sent to serve the king of the guards, and if the king of the guards fell ill in the rain, he would not be able to get out of it.

An Ansheng returned to the palace, and everyone in the brocade guards breathed a sigh of relief and ran back to change their clothes.

After an autumn rain, King Wei was still alive, but the elderly Queen Zhang was bedridden. As soon as she fell ill, the concubines of the six palaces, Princess Ningshou and Princess Fushou, who had already left the cabinet, were all around to serve the sick, and King Wei also came to greet her sooner or later, and he was quite anxious.

"Ahh......h Ah Jin ...... "Queen Zhang on the hospital bed, her face was old and tired, her eyes were closed, but she kept calling the names of her two grandsons. Ah Gong, Ah Jin, is the nickname of the prince's two sons. Princess Ningshou shed tears while covering the towel on her forehead for Empress Zhang, "She misses her grandson." Princess Fushou also wanted to cry, "Big brother went to Nanjing, how many years has it been?" "I can't see my son, I can't see my grandson, she is really miserable.

The emperor sent his attendants to condole, but he did not come in person. King Wei endured it for two days, and on the third day, he was furious and dragged the emperor to Kunning Palace. The emperor walked slowly, and said without a head or a brain: "Little Shi, don't regret it. King Wei turned his head to look at him in surprise, "What is there to regret about visiting my mother?" The Emperor smiled, "Walk well, be seen, what is it like." King Wei let go of him a little embarrassed, and muttered quietly, "You can go by yourself." ”

When the emperor and King Wei arrived at Empress Zhang's dormitory, they saw that the outside was full of people, starting from Qiu Guifei, Concubine Duan, Concubine Jing, Concubine Xian, Concubine De and others were all there, and there were some concubines of low grade, and the concubines each brought their own palace maids, which was really a good place. In addition, there are princesses who have left the cabinet, including the newly married nine princesses, and several princesses in Beijing. As soon as the emperor came, the concubines, princesses, and princesses all greeted him and saluted, and the emperor frowned and walked directly inside. King Wei followed closely behind the Emperor and also entered.

There are only Princess Ningshou, Princess Fushou and a few palace maids who serve closely. Seeing the emperor, Princess Ningshou couldn't stop her tears from flowing down, "Come and take a look." The emperor slowly walked to the bed, and Empress Zhang on the hospital bed had a yellow face, and at a glance, she looked lifeless.

King Wei brought a chair to the emperor and put it at the head of the bed, "Dad, you sit here." He helped the emperor to sit down and said softly: "You can talk to your mother, okay?" One sentence you say is more effective than a hundred or a thousand sentences we say. The emperor smiled, "Okay, little ten, daddy depends on you." ”

The emperor looked down at Empress Zhang, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes. This is his original wife, who was in love and lingering when she was young, and when she married herself, she was only seventeen years old, and she was as bright as a flower. It's not going to be now, it's old, it's old.

Her first three children were all born to her. She was pregnant with a child in the first year of marriage, it was a boy, but unfortunately she had a miscarriage and was not born, and she also injured her body because of the miscarriage and did not conceive for several years. In those years, she was anxious, and she was also anxious, and the husband and wife ...... at night

The Emperor's eyes softened. Later, she finally became pregnant, gave birth to her eldest son, and was ecstatic to have her eldest son. Then she gave birth to Ning Shou and Fu Shou, seeing that both of them were daughters, and she was getting older, so she persuaded herself to accept a lady to have a wide range of heirs, the second, third, and fourth, and one son after another was born, how prosperous.

When she reached middle age, she was pregnant again, and when the pregnancy period expired in October, the melon was ripe and gave birth to a cute little boy. It was the first year of Tianqing, when the Yellow River was clear and auspicious, and Xiao Shi was born in that year.

Little Ten has been blessed since birth.

The emperor thought about the past, and his heart gradually became softer.

Empress Zhang opened her eyes with difficulty, "Your Majesty ......" she called the emperor in a trembling voice, her eyes were full of begging, "Your Majesty, I am in my sleep and dreams, thinking about my children and grandchildren, can you let me see the boss and Ah Yong and Ah Jin again?" ”

"Your Majesty, even if they come back to drink a cup of birthday wine with me, and then go back to Nanjing after the spring season next year, it's okay." Empress Zhang's voice was weak, and listening to it in her ears made people feel unbearable.

King Wei, Princess Ningshou, and Princess Fushou all looked at the emperor worriedly.

The emperor smiled slightly, "Okay, up to you." ”

Today's emperor is particularly easy to speak.

Empress Zhang shed tears and choked up: "Your Majesty Xie has been fulfilled." The emperor's voice was gentle, "It's good to be born, it's good soon." Otherwise, when your children and grandchildren come back, and see that you are sick, will they not be worried? There are also two girls and Xiao Shi, who also can't sleep well at night. Empress Zhang nodded again and again, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

The matter of summoning the prince's family back to the capital to accompany Empress Zhang to spend the Thousand Autumn Festival was decided.

Whether the crown prince should stay in the capital or be sent to Nanjing was both a state and a family matter, and after the emperor made a decision, none of the ministers had any dissenting opinions. The emperor and the crown prince are father and son, and the emperor wants the prince to return to Beijing, so go back, who dares to have two words.

In fact, many of the ministers were not willing to let the prince come back at all. There is no profound truth in this, that is, I only want one leader, not two bosses.

With such a considerate promise from the emperor, a big stone in Empress Zhang's heart was removed, and her condition improved day by day. Princess Ningshou, Princess Fushou and King Wei saw it in their eyes and were extremely pleased, "When it comes to the Thousand Autumn Festival, I will be able to make a good profit!" The three siblings were full of confidence.

In the season when small snowflakes are floating in the sky, the prince and his party are back. He came in a hurry to celebrate Queen Zhang's birthday, and he stayed overnight on the road, which was very hard. In addition to the subordinate officials of the East Palace, he also brought the crown princess Tang, two daughters, two sons, and two second concubines, several favorite concubines, and more than 100 beautiful palace maids.

The prince entered the palace to meet the emperor and fell to the ground and cried. The emperor smiled and said, "How can this be reasonable, I will cry when I see me!" King Wei stood beside the emperor and shed tears, and the emperor was even happier, "You cry, and your younger brother will cry too!" The crown prince walked to the emperor on his knees, hugged the emperor's legs, and wept bitterly, "I can't be filial in front of my parents, I am ashamed and guilty, and I am heartbroken." King Wei knelt down beside him, hugged him and cried, "Big brother, my mother is about to kill you." The two brothers wept into tears.

The emperor smiled and said, "Don't cry anymore, you two will cry again, you have to make your father cry too." Tell me, dad is so old, and with such an identity, is it appropriate to cry bitterly? After a while, the crown prince and King Wei slowly collected their tears.

The prince's two sons, Ah Gong and Ah Jin, and his two daughters, Chaoyang and Qingyang, also came to meet the emperor. Chaoyang and Qingyang are from the crown princess Tang family, with beautiful appearance and generous manners, and the emperor likes it very much. The two sons, Ah Gong and Ah Jin, one was born strong, the other was thin, they all looked simple and had no aura, and the emperor looked at it again and again, and was very disappointed in his heart.

The prince is in his thirties and has no son-in-law, and it is likely that he has never had a son-in-law. If there is no heir, it should be established, but no emperor can take a fancy to Ah Gong and Ah Jin.

"Didn't you ever write to say that a concubine in your house was pregnant?" The Emperor asked with a glimmer of hope.

The prince's face turned red and said vaguely: "I didn't raise it." ”

That's really unlucky, the child was not born.

Although the emperor was disappointed in his heart, he did not reveal it, and gently ordered, "Go see your mother." "Go ahead, your mother should be thinking about it.

The prince agreed, and led his son and daughter to Kunning Palace. King Wei wanted to follow, but was stopped by the emperor, "Little Shi, don't be lazy." He ordered King Wei to draft an edict for him, the prince stagnated, and then left as if nothing happened, King Wei sat down resignedly, and he did whatever the emperor asked him to do.

The reunion of the crown prince and Queen Zhang's mother and son must be very touching. However, the emperor and the king of Wei did not have this blessing, and they did not see it with their own eyes.

The crown prince and the princess's family re-settled in Ciqing Palace, and there were more princes' families in the palace, which was a lot more lively. Queen Zhang is in good spirits on happy occasions and looks radiant, not at all like someone who has just had an illness. Her two sons and two daughters were very happy in their eyes. The prince, Princess Ningshou, Princess Fushou, King Wei, the four brothers and sisters often stay in Kunning Palace, and Queen Zhang's own children are all around, and they are full of joy.

What a heavenly day.

"You're about to celebrate your birthday, my birthday gift hasn't been prepared yet, and my anxious hair is about to turn white." King Wei was coquettish in front of Queen Zhang.

Empress Zhang smiled lovely, "Mother knows what you mean." Xiao Shi, you must be thinking, you are so pitiful and said, my mother must be distressed to explain, 'Just let the heart arrive, the birthday gift is exempt', you just climbed the pole and quickly agreed, isn't it? ”

King Wei clapped his hands and smiled, "How do you know about Lu Dao?" That's exactly what I had in mind. ”

The prince glanced at him, "You want to be exempted from the birthday gift for your mother's birthday, Xiao Shi, you are a stingy ghost." Princess Ningshou scolded with a smile, "Brother, my mother raised you so much." Princess Fushou came over and quipped, "Little Shi, do you still need to worry about the birthday gift?" Just take a fun and interesting stone and send it over, won't you? ”

King Wei's face was originally as beautiful as white jade, and Princess Fushou made such a joke, as bright as the morning glow in the sky.

The prince has not been in the capital for a long time, so he can't help but be a little confused, "Second sister, what do you mean?" Princess Ningshou pursed her lips and smiled, "Big brother, don't you know what to do?" Over the years, we have been most enthusiastic about collecting all kinds of strange stones and playing stones. Only then did the prince remember that the Pei girl that Xiao Shi liked loved stones.

The prince smiled faintly, "Speaking of which, there is a small misunderstanding between the eldest brother and Miss Pei." "I told about the Suzhou draft and someone pretending to be an internal servant," the eldest brother was very angry, and those villains were all beheaded for public display. ”
