Chapter 25: Han Derang
Han Derang fell off the horse this time, and it was not light, plus he was young and older. I found that my body was not as good as before, and I coughed for days and days, and my stomach turned over and over, and it hurt so much that I couldn't do it, and beads of sweat the size of beans overflowed my forehead.
Liao Shengzong Yelu Longxu took the queen to see Han Derang, and was very sad to see that Han Derang was very sick. The queen came over, helped Han Derang up, personally gave Han Derang a decoction, and said, "Godfather, you must pay attention to your body!" ”
"I'm old, I'm useless, I'm afraid I'm going to die soon!" Han Derang said.
"Don't you say that, I still have to godfather to assist me in handling the government! Without you, how could I handle such a big stall as Da Liao! The Holy Father said.
"Do you want to exhaust my old bones?" Han Derang coughed.
"How so! Godfather just needs to strategize and give me advice! ”
"No, I'm old, and my brain is useless!"
Empress Xiao walked out and said: "Your godfather, the most regrettable thing in this life is that he has no children under his knees, so he is more desolate when he is old!" ”
The queen said, "How could my godfather have no children? The emperor and I are willing to be your sons, serving your knees! ”
The Holy Father also replied "Yes"!
Han Derang still sighed! Empress Xiao understood his difficulties and said, "After all, you are the emperor and empress, and you are busy with state affairs, so you rarely have time to accompany him. So he's very lonely! ”
The queen said, "Then the queen mother means! ”
"I mean, give him a son!"
The Holy Sect asked, "I don't know which prince's son my godfather has taken a fancy to!" Godfather, as long as you say it, I will do it for you! ”
Empress Xiao said: "I know your godfather's thoughts, he has taken a fancy to Yelu Duoyan!" ”
The Holy Sect was terrified: "This can't be done! This Yelu Duoyan is just an outcast accepted by Huayan Temple, how can he enjoy the royal honor! ”
"Your Majesty, you can't say that! There is no distinction between high and low! Your godfather, look at this Yelu Duoyan, he is clever by nature, but he lacks systematic cultivation, as long as he is cultivated a little, he will definitely be a great talent in the future, able to assist His Majesty! Empress Xiao said.
"That's what Godfather really sees!" The Holy Father asked.
Han Derang nodded, his long-cherished wish for so many years was to be able to recognize his son, and this is also a wish! I want to get up from the bed and kneel down for His Majesty. Seeing that Han Derang was emotional, the queen held him down, and also persuaded the Holy Sect: "Your Majesty, you just follow your godfather's wishes!" ”
The Holy Sect was still thinking about it, but the Empress and Empress Xiao were both pleading, so they had no choice but to answer them!
The Holy Sect looked at Han Derang's wrinkled face, full of joy, maybe he was indeed old, and longed to have a son on his lap to serve and enjoy the joy of family! said: "Godfather, rest well!" Be sure to pay attention to your body! Then he turned his head and said, "Queen, let's go, don't disturb my godfather's rest!" ”
The queen followed over a little reluctantly, and instructed: "Godfather, drink the soup well!" Han Derang nodded. The queen took the Holy Sect's hand and left!
When Empress Xiao saw them leaving, she helped Han Derang and said, "Now I have fulfilled your wish!" Father and son can finally recognize each other! Han Derang's eyes filled with tears and said, "I'm afraid that I won't have much time to watch Duo Yan grow up, I hope I still have a breath of air, and I can help him and give him the road in front of him!" ”
"You can't say such a thing, what will I do if you leave! Duo'er still needs your care! Empress Xiao also shed tears.
Han Derang's status in the Liao Dynasty is not ordinary, so as soon as he recognized his son, it can be said that he shocked all the power centers of the Liao State, and the Holy Emperor Xiao brought a group of imperial relatives to congratulate him. As a country of brothers, the Song State could not fail to inform it, and Liao Shengzong personally wrote a letter to tell Zhenzong.
Shinshu was also very happy when he received the letter. Summoning the ministers to discuss this matter, Wang Qinruo felt that this was just an opportunity to get close to the distance between Song Liao and Song Liao, and said, "Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" ”
"Why!" Shinshu didn't understand.
"Your Majesty, what kind of identity do you think Han Derang is in the Liao State, the privy envoy of the North and South Courts of the Liao State, and he also has an extraordinary relationship with the Empress Dowager Xiao, the son he recognizes can be said to be higher than the prince, this is an opportunity, Your Majesty can marry Han Derang!"
"Aiqing, think that daughter of mine is suitable!" Zhenzong is a little reluctant to give up his daughters, and each daughter is his own heart!
"Weichen thinks that His Majesty's youngest daughter Zhao Miaomiao is ingenious and the most suitable!"
"She's still so young, I can't bear to let her go to the kind of wild place in the north!"
"Your Majesty should focus on the country! Song Liao became a family, which is conducive to the stability of the Song Liao border! ”
Zhenzong, think about it, although his daughter is his own heart, but for the stability and unity of the country, he has to sacrifice his own daughter? The decree was immediately announced: "Feng's youngest daughter Zhao Lingling, as the princess of Qi State, as the marriage envoy of Song State, go to Liao State to marry Han Derang's son Yelu Duoyan!" ”
When Zhao Lingling heard that he was going to be sent to the north where Mao Ru's blood was drinking, he ran to his mother, Concubine Li, to cry: "Mother, my father doesn't love me anymore, and he wants to marry me to the north!" It's freezing in that place, I don't want to go, don't go! ”
Concubine Chen stroked Zhao Lingling's hair and said, "How could your father not love you?" He sent you to the north because he had to do it! You have to understand your father! ”
"Isn't it? Father, why can't I marry the minister of the capital, why do you have to marry me so far to the north! If so, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to see my mother and father last time. ”
Concubine Chen gritted her teeth and held back her tears not to fall, she didn't want to keep her daughter by her side, but she couldn't! This is a decision made by His Majesty!
"Mother, can you intercede with my father and let me stay in the capital!"
Concubine Chen fell into deep thought!
Zhao Lingling shook Concubine Chen's hand and said, "Mother, can you help me talk about it?" ”
At this time, Zhenzong walked in, Concubine Chen wiped her tears, and asked, "Your Majesty, do you really have to marry Lingling to such a far away?" ”
Zhenzong replied: "I don't want to, but for the sake of the country, I have to do it!" For so many years, the Liao people have violated my Song Realm, and the border people are living in dire straits, and now it can be said that it is the only opportunity, Han Derang is not ordinary in the Liao country, if we can envelop him, it will be very beneficial to us! ”
"Then do you have to send your daughter over? You can find a random folk girl, consider it your righteous daughter, and marry her! Concubine Chen complained bitterly.
"We've thought about that too! But if it was cheated and discovered by the Liao State, it would have been a good thing, but it might have angered the other party, and it was not good for the relationship between Song and Liao! To put it more seriously, it may provoke the war of Song Liao! ”
"I don't, you adults always talk about some national affairs and national security, is it true that the happiness of the common people is happiness, and isn't the happiness of your daughter happiness? Do you have to bury your daughter's happiness in exchange for the happiness of the common people? Zhao Lingling cried.
Zhenzong slapped Zhao Lingling in the mouth and said, "Your daughter, why don't you know the importance of it so much, and you don't know how to think about national affairs!" If you don't marry today, you have to marry! ”
Zhao Lingling touched the beaten mouth, Concubine Chen hugged her into her arms, and also interceded for Zhao Lingling: "Your Majesty, is there really no way?" Do you have to sacrifice your daughter? ”
"Why don't you understand? Do you think I won't be heartbroken when I send my daughter to the north? I am more heartbroken than all of you, but for the sake of the Great Song, we must make sacrifices! "Zhenzong is a little helpless!
