Chapter Ninety-Eight: Jiazi Gets a Son

The time in the mountains was quiet and long, and except for the Gyeonggi major report Liu Che would personally approve it, other matters had already been handed over to the crown prince Liu Ju. The prince has been in charge of the country for several years, and the government is stable and orderly, Liu Che is relieved, but also feels that the prince is too benevolent and lacks the majesty of the lord.

The sound of cicadas chirping, the summer is thick, Liu Che has just taken a nap, and Shang Shu Ling Zhang Anshi asked to see him outside the hall, "Shang Shu Ling is here, there must be something big, announce it quickly!" Liu Che raised his voice.

"No!" Xiao Huangmen retreated respectfully, and Zhang Anshi was delighted and said, "Your Majesty, great joy!" The second division general has a great victory! ”

"Oh?" Liu Che raised his eyebrows when he heard the news and said happily, "Hurry up!" ”

"No!" Zhang Anshi said, "... Minister Li Guangli lived up to His Majesty's trust, and in the battle of Dawan, our army won a complete victory! Take the head of the king of Dawan, get more than 3,000 horses and horses, and rely on the authority of His Majesty, and the army will return soon..."

"Good!" Liu Che smiled when he heard this, and got up and said: "In the past, this Dawan King was proud of his remote location, thinking that I would definitely have nothing to do with him, so he would be so bold and wantonly humiliate my Han envoy. Now that Dawan is fighting, I am ashamed of my previous shame, and let these small countries in the Western Regions take a good look at what kind of fate it will be to make enemies with our Han Dynasty! ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Although Zhang Anshi did not agree with spending so much manpower and material resources to attack a remote small country in the Western Regions in order to get a bloody horse, the result of the war was won after all, and what Liu Che said was not bad, to make many small countries in the Western Regions submit to the Han Dynasty, it is indeed impossible to conquer without a certain amount of force, "Now that my Han Dynasty is famous, all the countries in the Western Regions are shocked by Your Majesty's majesty!" Zhang Anshi congratulated.

"Good! This is what I want, the small countries in the Western Regions are mostly at both ends of the snake and mouse between our Han and the Xiongnu, and they are frequently false and unkind to our dynasty, if we don't add more deterrence, we will definitely have no eyes in the future! Liu Che stroked his beard and said calmly, "Draft documents, go back to Li Guangli, Wen Jie is very relieved, return to Beijing to discuss meritorious deeds, and on the way back, you will be extremely powerful and deter the countries of the Western Regions!" ”

"No!" Zhang Anshi replied respectfully.

Time flies by in a flash, from summer to autumn, from winter to spring, and several years pass by in a flash.

"Your Majesty, Madame is born! Raw! Xiaohuangmen Changrong bowed down into the Xuanshu Hall with twelve points of joy and said, "Your Majesty, the people from the Flying Feather Palace have come to report, Mrs. has given birth to a prince for Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!" All the courtiers in the Xuanshu Hall bowed down to congratulate, "Your Majesty is overjoyed!" ”

"Hahaha! Good, good! Liu Che was overjoyed, and he couldn't care about discussing state affairs anymore, so he got up and said, "Swing the Flying Feather Palace!" ”

"No!" Chang Rong smiled with his eyebrows, the wind under his feet, and raised his voice: "Your Majesty swings the Flying Feather Palace!" ”

----

The Flying Feather Hall has long been full of joy, and the current saint's favor Lady Gouyi is well known, and now he has given birth to a prince at the age of the Holy Driver, and the future glory can be imagined, so everyone is smeared with honey in their mouths to congratulate and preach, and when the Holy Driver arrives at the Flying Feather Palace, it is quiet.

"Where's Madame?" As soon as the sedan chair came, Liu Che couldn't wait to ask.

The palace man of the Flying Feather Hall had already replied on the side: "Back to Your Majesty, Madame gave birth to the prince and is now resting in the inner room." ”

"Okay, take me over." When he thought of the newborn little prince, Liu Che felt a deep joy in his heart, the crown prince Liu Ju had already given birth to a grandson, and he could have a young son at the age of Jiazi, how could this not make him proud?

Walking through the main hall, along the corridor through the two side halls is the inner hall behind, Zhao Yan is lying on the couch looking at the newborn child, the nurse has just been fed, the little child is sleeping in the swaddling clothes Zhengxiang, long eyelashes, crystal face, pink mouth, Zhao Yan can't see enough.

"Your Majesty has arrived!" There was a long sound of communication outside the door of the hall, and with the sound of communication, Liu Che walked in quickly, "Yan'er..."

Zhao Yan responded softly when she heard this, "Your Majesty..."

"Yan'er!" Bypassing the screen, Liu Che approached and called softly, "Where is my little prince?" ”

"Your Majesty...," Zhao Yan said with a smile, "The child is here!" ”

"Let me see!" Liu Che couldn't wait, watching the child next to Zhao Yan stretch out his hand and hug it gently, the child was suddenly picked up and suddenly cried, crystal tears slipped down the little face, Liu Che patted and patted and patted and coaxed and coaxed, "Don't cry, child, I am your father!" ”

It is also strange to say, after Liu Che coaxed a few times, the childish child stopped crying, and fell asleep again with tears on his face, Liu Che gently wiped away the tears on the child's face, and kissed a few times before reluctantly putting down the swaddling clothes.

Zhao Yan couldn't help but smile when she looked at it, and Liu Che turned his gaze to Zhao Yan and said softly: "Yan'er, thank you for your hard work!" ”

Zhao Yan shook her head with a smile and said, "It is the blessing of the concubine to be able to give birth to a child for Your Majesty, and no matter how hard the concubine is, she is willing!" ”

Liu Che gently stroked Zhao Yan, bowed his head slightly, and said thoughtfully: "Mothers are all pregnant and gave birth to children in October, only I, the emperor, have been in your womb for fourteen months, and the ancient Emperor Yao is a virtuous monarch through the ages, and his mother was born fourteen months pregnant. ”

Zhao Yan's heart moved when she heard this, and said, "Your Majesty is saying that Emperor Yao of the Ancient Dynasty was also like my son, and he was born in his mother's womb for fourteen months?" ”

"Exactly!" Liu Che nodded and said jokingly: "My Yan'er is comparable to the ancient Yaomu!" ”

Zhao Yan smiled and said: "Yan'er is not as good as Yao's mother, as long as my son is as virtuous as Emperor Yao, the concubine will be satisfied!" Zhao Yan suddenly felt that it was inappropriate, after all, the current crown prince Liu Ju is the future monarch of the Han Dynasty, if his own child is equal to Emperor Yao, where will the prince be? Thinking of this, Zhao Yan hurriedly asked for sin: "Your Majesty forgives the sin, the concubine is speechless for a while!" ”

"Whoa! Anyway! Liu Che stopped and said with a smile: "This kid is different, if I can really compete with Emperor Yao in the future, what's the difference?" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Yan's eyes were bright, and she said with a smile: "Please also ask Your Majesty to give my son a name!" ”

"Hmm..."Liu Che stroked his beard and said with a dignified expression: "I have to think about it..."

After pondering for a moment, Liu Che said: "My son is different from the crowd, the mausoleum is also all living beings, and the tomb is not an ordinary person, and it is above the people." ”

"Yan'er, my son's name is Fuling, how is it?" Liu Che looked at Zhao Yan and smiled, and asked.

"Fuling, an extraordinary person, is above people." Zhao Yan read in a heavy voice, her mind turned between the lightning and flint, and she hurriedly thanked her: "Thank you for your majesty's name, concubine!" ”

"Fring, Fring!" Liu Che looked at his infant son and was full of anticipation, "My little prince, Fuling!" ”

----

The birth of the new prince, the whole world congratulates, in this piece of joy, the embroidered messenger Jiang Chong is particularly excited, "Brother Du, come, drink another bottle!" ”

"Hey..."Tingwei Du Zhou picked up the wine bottle, gently avoided the wine jug that Jiang Chong brought over, and said with a smile and half seriousness: "Brother Jiang seems to be extremely happy with the birth of the little prince this time!" ”

"Haha!" Jiang Chong smiled, looked at Du Zhou and said meaningfully: "Isn't Brother Du happy?" ”

Du Zhou raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang's words sound quite meaningful!" ”

Jiang Chong bowed his head slowly, put down the wine jug, and said in a low voice: "Brother Du, do you know why Your Majesty gave the little prince the name of Fuling?" ”

Du Zhou said: "Fu Ling, not an ordinary person, is above people. Your Majesty's intentions, how can you not know? ”

Jiang Chong just nodded slightly, and said: "Brother Du only knows one and doesn't know the other, I heard that the little prince was born to Mrs. Gou Yi for fourteen months of pregnancy, and the ancient sage Emperor Yao was also born to his mother for fourteen months of pregnancy, so His Majesty thought that the little prince had an extraordinary background and would be different from everyone else in the future, so he gave him the name Fuling." ”

Du Zhou seemed to think about it when he heard this, and said: "What Brother Jiang said, I have also heard it below, I heard that Your Majesty praised Mrs. Gou Yi for having the style of Yao's mother, and even called the palace gate born to the little prince Yao's mother's door, is your Majesty..."

Looking at Du Zhou's thoughtful appearance, an unpredictable smile appeared on Jiang Chong's face, "Brother Du, as a court lieutenant, has been in the position of Jiuqing, have you ever thought about your wealth in the future?" ”

Du Zhou was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said, "What does Brother Jiang mean by this?" ”

Jiang Chong smiled slightly: "It's not a secret, Mrs. Gouyi, who is now favored by His Majesty, is a fellow villager and a little sister, if Brother Du has a heart, he can pave the way for future wealth in advance." ”

"Oh? Mrs. Gou Yi is actually Brother Jiang's fellow countryman? Du Zhou showed a sudden expression of realization on his face, "No wonder the little prince is so happy to give birth to Brother Jiang!" Why have you never heard of this matter? ”

Jiang Chong poured a bottle of wine for Du Zhou, and said: "Jiang and Brother Du have the same temperament, and only Brother Du is informed of this matter, Brother Du understands in his heart, the prince and you and I are not on the same road today, it's time to think about the future!" ”

"Hmm!" Du Zhou nodded sympathetically, raised the wine bottle and drank it with Jiang Chong, "Du understands!" ”

Outside the winehouse, the crescent moon is like a hook, the canopy is quiet and deep, and there are stars faintly shining in the distance, everything is like last night, but it is different from last night.

"Queen, the Prime Minister's wife asks to see you outside the palace!" Wei Zifu was bowing his head to be a female red, and Yun Niang quietly stepped into the inner road.

Wei Zifu raised his head when he heard this, and said happily: "Sister is here?" Please! After that, he hurriedly put down the female red in his hand, got up to clean up a little, and went to the main hall.

Walking into the main hall, Wei Junru was already waiting on the side, and when he saw Wei Zifu coming in and was about to come forward to salute, Wei Zifu hurriedly took Wei Junru's hand and said affectionately: "Sister hasn't been here for a long time, sit down and talk!" ”

"Good!" Wei Junru replied with a smile, the two sisters are siblings, although Wei Zifu's silhouette is more beautiful, but if you look closely at the facial features of the two, there are also some similarities, and now that they have reached a certain age, the eyebrows and eyes are more and more similar, "How is the queen lately?" Wei Junru sat down and asked with concern.

"Sister Lao is worried, my sister is fine!" Wei Zifu cared, "Has my sister's gout improved?" ”

As he got older, the number of gouts became more and more, and the medical officer also saw a lot, but there was no obvious improvement. Some time ago, Wei Zifu found a famous doctor to go for diagnosis and treatment, and it has been a few months, Wei Junru heard the words and replied gratefully: "I haven't thanked the queen for this matter, the doctor who treated me this time is quite capable, I feel a lot more relaxed, and gout may not be committed for a long time." ”

"That's it!" Wei Zifu said with a smile, "You and my sister, why do you need to say thank you, my sister has suffered from gout over the years, and my husband can't wait to replace him, and now I can have such a result, which is really gratifying!" ”

"I wonder how the second sister has been doing lately?" Thinking of Wei Shao'er, Wei Zifu's eyes were worried again, "Since she left the illness, the second sister has been seriously ill, and she has been unhappy since then, and she has been closed in the past few years, which is very worrying!" ”

Wei Junru sighed, frowned and said, "Yes! Some time ago, I went to visit the child, she was still in poor spirits, she said to me, don't send a salute to the army, for the mother should take good care of the child, the child can be by his side, far better than the marquis and worship the general..."

"Alas..."Wei Zifu also let out a long sigh, with tears in his eyes, "Go and sick this child... Who would have thought that would be the case? ”

"yes!" Wei Junru nodded with deep feelings, and said: "Jingsheng is the only son of the Gongsun family, after going to illness, the prime minister no longer has the heart to make contributions to the army, and only let him serve in the imperial court, hoping that he will be safe and sound." ”

"Hmm..."Wei Zifu nodded, and said: "That's fine, this kid is different from going to illness, he can't suffer the hardships in the army, it's a good thing to be in a position under the protection of the prime minister." ”

I don't know what kind of character my son Wei Jun and his wife can say, and when he heard this, he agreed: "What the queen said is extremely true! ”

"This time, I still have some thoughtful things to say to the queen." Wei Junru glanced at the palace people in the palace, and whispered to Wei Zifu, Wei Zifu understood in his heart, and said: "Yun Niang, let all the palace people in the palace go down!" ”

"No!" Yun Niang on the side responded, and sent all the palace people in the palace down, and covered the palace door before retreating.

"Sister, it's okay to say anything." The hall was quiet and empty, and Wei Zifu looked at Wei Jun and said.

Wei Junru bowed slightly, and said: "Queen, my sister came this time with the Prime Minister's instructions, and the Prime Minister asked me to inform the Queen that Your Majesty is dissatisfied with the Prince's actions, and now Mrs. Gou Yi is pregnant for 14 months and gives birth to a child, Your Majesty calls her Yao's mother, this matter has made waves in the court, I hope the Queen will be serious and persuade the prince more." ”

Wei Zifu's expression became solemn when he heard this, and he said slowly for a long time: "Please sister, thank you Prime Minister for me!" Please tell the prime minister, the prime minister's reminder to the palace to keep in mind, I will persuade the prince to act, and I hope that the prime minister will bother to assist the prince and calm the turmoil in the court! ”

"Hmmm! Sister made a note of it! Wei Junru nodded and said, "The queen can rest assured, the prime minister will definitely do his best to assist the prince!" ”

"Thank you, sister!" The two big Simas in the court have passed away one after another, and now the prince can only rely on the current prime minister Gongsun He in the court, thinking of the conflicts of the previous dynasty and the changes in the harem, Wei Zifu's heart is like a mountain, and he can't breathe heavily.
