Chapter 45: Mother's Words
(I just found out that Sanjiang recommended it this week, I hope you can go and vote, Sanjiang is above the starting point page.) Thank you. )
Luo Huanzhang walked into the room slowly, his steps were majestic, he was dressed in cloth, but he had the momentum of a general with a sword and a bow, he never bowed to the ground when he saluted the emperor, but one foot in front and one foot behind, bowing slightly, and his hands in front of him, which was simple and solemn, and there was a trace of antiquity.
There were more eunuchs who came today, and the eight of them stood in two rows at the door, not saluting or squeaking, quite arrogant. The King of the East Sea was surprised, and his eyes swept around vigilantly.
Jing Yao, the supervisor of the Central Division, walked in, walked in front of the King of the East China Sea in small steps, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness will follow me." ”
"Where are you going?" The king of the East Sea clenched his hands into fists and pressed them on the bookcase.
"Please come with me." Jing Yao accentuated his tone.
The King of the East Sea got up reluctantly, glanced at the emperor, pouted, and followed Jing Yao.
Han Ruzi was kneeling and looking directly at Luo Huanzhang, it was obvious that the spare holy decree had been handed in.
"Today, the grass people will tell His Majesty about the deeds of Emperor He." Luo Huanzhang said.
Emperor He is the son of Emperor Lie, the father of Emperor Wu, an emperor who inherited the past and the future, during his reign, the world was fine, the treasury was full, the people were happy, although there were small troubles on the border, Emperor He only ordered the place to stick to it, and never took the initiative to challenge.
Emperor He is a Ming monarch, but there is a regret in his life.
At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, he adhered to humility and rarely had disputes with ministers, and kept the will of Emperor Lie, deliberately suppressing the power of his relatives.
In the seventh year of Emperor He's reign, the Queen Mother passed away, and sighed before her death: "My relatives are all noble by concubines, and the Duhua family is in a humble position because of me. ”
Emperor He mourned when he heard this, that is, in front of the hospital bed, the three people of the Hua family were named Hou, and the five people were Lang.
Empress Dowager Hua passed away with a smile, but Emperor He has always regretted it, and treated his uncle's family favorably throughout his life. After Emperor Wu, Emperor Huan, Emperor Si, and so far, the Hua family still has a Junyang Marquis.
"When filial piety is cherished, don't wait for your parents to leave before regretting it, but Your Majesty will think twice." Luo Huanzhang saluted, and the morning class came to an end.
Han Ruzi listened more seriously than usual, and asked: "The meritorious are rewarded, the capable are promoted, and the virtuous are rewarded, otherwise these three, how can they be officials to help the Son of Heaven govern the country?" Emperor He sealed his uncle's family in front of the bed, making the Queen Mother smile, where are the ancestors of the Great Chu and the Han family? ”
The faces of the two rows of eunuchs at the door changed slightly.
Luo Huanzhang's eyes drooped slightly, and he immediately raised it again, and said with a straight face: "Filial piety comes from the heart, only filial piety can be discussed with righteousness, and the filial piety of the emperor benefits the world......"
Han Ruzi knew what Luo Huanzhang was going to say, so he interrupted him unceremoniously: "In this way, I am the most unfilial person in the world who abandoned his biological mother for the sake of the Son of Heaven. ”
The faces of the eunuchs changed greatly, Luo Huanzhang is the emperor's teacher, and he can not kneel according to the etiquette, but at this time, he knelt down, kowtowed respectfully, got up and said: "Filial piety is in the heart and observes the ceremony, and the queen mother is Your Majesty's mother." ”
Han Ruzi grabbed a book on the case and threw it at Luo Huanzhang, and said loudly: "Luo Huanzhang, what face do you have to say goodbye to your disciples, relatives and friends?" ”
The Tailin didn't watch anymore, and the four people in the front row rushed up and held down the emperor.
Luo Huanzhang didn't move, let the scroll smash on his chest, and said coldly: "Luo has countless disciples, and there is no one like Your Majesty." The Marquis of Biyuan has admitted the crime, His Majesty reflects, can this move be worthy of the Queen Mother and the people of the world? ”
Han Ruzi yelled at the hands of the eunuchs, put on a good show, no one asked him to do it, he just felt that it was more real, and he needed a vent.
It turned out that the minister who was sacrificed was the Marquis of Biyuan, who had not been back from the Kanto battlefield for a long time, and was recuperating at home, and he had very few friends in peacetime, and there may be fewer people implicated because of him.
The emperor did not go to the Qinzheng Palace, and was sent back to Tai'an Palace, where at least four eunuchs were guarded at all times, Zhang Youcai and Tong Qing'e could only come in once in a while, and they had to quit immediately after doing things.
Han Ruzi stopped tossing and lay on the bed, curious about what the Queen Mother would do next.
Lunch was canceled, which was a small punishment for the emperor.
In the evening, Tong Qing'e brought in a plate of food, and the eunuchs checked it before allowing her to be sent to the emperor. Han Ruzi quickly finished eating, and said angrily to Tong Qing'e: ", is it your bad thing? ”
Tong Qing'e retreated in a panic, but raised her head and glanced at it quickly, indicating that she understood the emperor's intentions, and in the current situation, the emperor would be safer with whoever was vicious.
Han Ruzi had eaten his fill, and shouted at several guards and eunuchs: "Do you dare to report your name?" I remember what you look like, and I will ...... ...... in the future"
He was thinking back to the tone and words of the East Sea King, and a person came in from outside the door.
Zuo Ji's face was still bruised, and he couldn't show his cute smile, and he didn't want to smile in the face of the emperor.
The two looked at each other for a while, Han Ruzi felt a little worried in his heart, if you want to say who hates the emperor the most in the palace, it must be this person.
"Your Majesty is not a little bold."
"It's not as good as Zuo Gong."
"Isn't Your Majesty afraid of the law of your ancestors?"
"Isn't Zuo Gong afraid that Liang An dreams at night?"
Zuo Ji snorted, "Your Majesty, save your teeth, I'll take Your Majesty to meet someone." ”
Han Ruzi's heart moved, "Who?" ”
Zuo Ji did not answer, turned around and led the way, and several eunuchs came and guarded the emperor's side like prisoners.
Han Ruzi stepped forward to follow, and outside the house, Zhang Youcai and more than ten other people knelt on the ground, all of them were silent.
There was also a team of eunuchs and guards outside the Tai'an Palace, surrounding the emperor in the middle, and he was more like a prisoner.
A group of people walked, rounding and turning, passing through one portal after another, getting farther and farther away from Tai'an Palace, but did not go to Cishun Palace, where the Queen Mother lived.
Han Ruzi's heart was pounding, and he vaguely guessed who he was going to see.
At the end of a deep alley, the Emperor was sent into a small room, simplely furnished and dimly lit by candlelight, more modest than an ordinary house, and a woman sat in a daze by the candlelight.
Han Ruzi didn't care much, so he threw himself in front of the woman and knelt down, hugged her leg and cried silently.
"Your Majesty, don't cry." It was a mother's voice, but it was a little cold.
Zuo Ji stood at the door, coldly watching the mother and son meet.
"Mother." Han Ruzi raised his head, he couldn't imagine that he would see him again in such a place after saying goodbye that day.
"Your Majesty has grown up a little more." Wang Meiren's voice was still a little cold, but she involuntarily raised her hand to touch her son's face, but when she touched it, she shrank back and smiled: "Your Majesty is an adult, why are you still crying like a child?" ”
Han Ruzi wiped away her tears, "The child made his mother suffer. ”
"Your Majesty must not say such things, Your Majesty's supreme body should be thought of by the world. The Queen Mother is merciful ......"
Han Ruzi withdrew his hand from his mother's knee, "Queen Mother...... Has my mother seen the Queen Mother? ”
Wang Meiren nodded, "I've seen it, it was the Queen Mother who took me into the palace." ”
"Let you live in a place like this?" Han Ruzi looked left and right, the furnishings in the room were too simple, and there was not even a bed.
Wang Meiren smiled, "I just moved here today, Your Majesty...... If Your Majesty really cares about my life, you should be a good emperor. ”
"What is a good emperor?" Han Ruzi felt more and more that her mother's words were strange.
"A good emperor will listen to the Queen Mother and will not do anything behind the Queen Mother's back."
"And then? Waiting for the Queen Mother to ...... our mother and son," Han Ruzi couldn't continue.
Wang Meiren shook her head, "The Queen Mother is not the kind of person Your Majesty imagined, she is very kind, everything she does is for the sake of Your Majesty, wait a few years, Your Majesty will be able to govern in person, and then the Queen Mother will retire to the Inner Palace, and I can also ...... I'll be able to see Your Majesty often, too. ”
Han Ruzi didn't believe the Queen Mother's promise at all, but in front of Zuo Ji, he couldn't refute, "Mother, what should I do?" ”
"Don't call me mother anymore, the Queen Mother is Your Majesty's mother." Wang Meiren's voice trembled, paused for a while, and returned to normal when she spoke again, "From now on, Your Majesty will listen to the Queen Mother's words, and Da Chu needs a successor, Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, though he is young, should do his best. ”
Zuo Ji, who was standing at the door, interjected coldly, "Wang Meiren asks Your Majesty to go back and follow the way of husband and wife as soon as possible, and give birth to the prince for Da Chu." ”
Han Ruzi turned his head and glanced at Zuo Ji resentfully, and said to his mother, "Child...... Exert oneself. ”
"It's not about trying, you must do it, only in this way can Your Majesty and I have a day to reunite."
Zuo Ji urged: "The words have been made clear, Your Majesty, please get up." ”
Han Ruzi was still kneeling on the ground, and two eunuchs came in from outside and supported the emperor's arms.
"Mother, I will definitely pick you up."
Wang Meiren smiled, saw her son being taken away, and said loudly: "Remember the words of the mother, you must remember." ”
Han Ruzi nodded solemnly, pushed away the eunuch, and walked out by himself.
The late night in the palace is no different from the outside, but there are more people carrying lanterns, and there is an unknown fragrance of flowers floating in the alley.
Only he can understand Wang Meiren's voice, "for the mother's words" does not refer to everything said today, but when Han Ruzi was taken away by Yang Feng, his mother put it in his ear and instructed: Don't trust anyone in the palace, and don't offend anyone.
At this moment, the previous sentence is more important than the last sentence, the mother has entered the palace, so she can't believe her words, the queen mother will not let go of their mother and son, he must resist, and as soon as possible.
Zuo Ji followed the emperor and said softly, "Is Your Majesty satisfied?" ”
Han Ruzi bit his lip and walked out of the way, turned his head to Zuo Ji and said, "Take me to Qiuxin Palace to see the queen." ”
An ugly smile erupted into Zuoji's unhealed face.
