Chapter 916 Mysterious Identity

Coming back from the dock, Ye Qing didn't have time to make a plan before going to sea.

But there was not very good news from the other side.

Ye Qing wanted a hundred shipwrights, and the reason was that Ye Qing and they had not visited the "Eagle Gang" when they went to sea this time.

There is a gang called the Eagle Gang in Xiacheng, which was originally composed of some loyal remnants of the former dynasty who took refuge in Xiacheng.

The emperor of the previous dynasty was martyred, and the first generation of "Nanping Prince" borrowed troops to enter the customs, and the people were ravaged by foreign races.

Some fishermen from the seashore went to live on the sea, and over time, these people intermarried with each other in several towns near Riyue Island and Xiacheng, engaged in fishing and hunting, and cultivated fields, as if they were a state of their own.

Their current gang leader, Han Shan, was a pirate in his early years, and later helped the "Ghost-faced General" repel the Japanese pirates, so the Xiacheng Sailor Yamen also handed over some things to them to manage.

When Ye Qing heard this, he decided to visit early tomorrow morning.

Qian Junbao thought about it and agreed with her proposition, this matter should be solved by Mo Ce, but he also wanted to take a look, if they were prey on the people, then let Mo Ce deal with it.

Palace

In the main hall of Taiji, the emperor summoned the meritorious soldiers who returned triumphantly from Moxi.

It took three years to finally pacify the remnants of the Xiongnu of more than a dozen tribes in the west, and the emperor was happy and ready to reward these heroes.

After receiving the emperor's encouragement, Helian Tu, the veteran general who led the troops this time, specially pointed to a middle-aged general and said: "Your Majesty, we can win a big victory this time, thanks to Vice General Wang."

It was he who disregarded the danger and went deep into the enemy camp to break through the enemy camp in one fell swoop. ”

He had already mentioned this matter in the report, and this time he was trying to promote him in front of the emperor again.

The emperor looked at the person pointed at the old general Helian, faintly suppressed a certain emotion, looked at him a few times quietly, and said loudly: "You are the Wang Zhenghao who has repeatedly performed miraculous feats as General Zhenxi said, but you look quite heroic, how old are you this year?" ”

Vice General Wang, who faced the saint for the first time, was both excited and nervous, and came out to clasp his fists and replied, "If you go back to the emperor, the minister will be thirty-three this year." ”

The emperor smiled approvingly, "Okay, young and promising, you can make this great achievement, come here, give a glass of wine." ”

It's just that the emperor looked at him with a vague eagerness, and after thirty years, he finally saw this child again.

With so many generals and ministers in the palace, Wang Zhenghao didn't expect that he would be given wine after only one answer, and after being stunned for a while, he grinned and bowed, "Thank you for the wine." ”

He was sure that the emperor would give him wine when he saw that he was heroic and extraordinary, and that he had great military achievements.

One of the chamberlains led another eunuch to bring a glass of wine, and he took the glass and drank it with his head up.

The chamberlain stood aside, glancing at his right earlobe without a trace, and when he finished drinking, before the eunuch withdrew with his empty wine glass, the chamberlain bowed slightly to the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, and then left.

Seeing this, the emperor showed a meaningful smile on his face, and raised his hand to summon, "Wang Zhenghao, you come forward and let me take a look." ”

Wang Zhenghao was a little puzzled, he didn't know what the emperor wanted to see him, he glanced back at the old general Helian.

The old general Helian scolded with a fixed eyebrow, "The emperor asked you to come forward, what are you still doing in a daze, don't you hurry up." ”

"Oh." In response, Wang Zhenghao walked to the front of the hall, raised his face and looked directly at the emperor, he was not good at staring at the emperor all the time.

At this time, he was at eye level with the emperor, and he also saw it clearly, His Majesty today is really the same as the legend, although he is already in his prime, but his spirit is very good, and he looks at his fifties with a red face.

It's just that he muttered in his heart, how the emperor's eyebrows and eyes look a little familiar.

The emperor was also carefully examining Wang Zhenghao's face, and vaguely saw the face of the old man on his face, and he couldn't help but murmur, "Like, especially the eyes and that little mouth." ”

Suppressing the waves of his heart, after reading it, he asked Wang Zhenghao to step down.

Then, in front of all the ministers, the emperor gave several generals, including Heliantu, among which Wang Zhenhao was named the Fuyuan guerrilla general from Sanpin, which was the highest ranking among the young generals who were rewarded this time.

The generals and ministers standing under His Highness were all surprised by his exceptional reward.

They originally thought that according to Wang Zhenghao's military exploits, he would be awarded the title of a heroic guerrilla general of the fourth rank at most, but they did not expect the emperor to make an exception to canonize him from a sixth-rank deputy general to a third-rank general at once.

Even the old general Helian was a little surprised, and he was a little puzzled that a Han son could be promoted like this.

But in the next moment, the emperor saw that Vice General Wang had made great contributions at a young age, and he had been emphasizing that the Huxia people and the Han people were one family over the years.

Cherish talents and love talents, which is why they are exceptionally promoted.

After the reward, the emperor gave a few words of praise and dispersed.

Then he sent palace people to lead Wang Zhenghao to the Qinzheng Palace.

was taken to the emperor's imperial study alone, which made Wang Zhenghao, a rough man, a little puzzled.

"The last general will see the emperor."

"No courtesy." There was a hint of intimacy in the emperor's voice.

"I don't know what happened when the emperor summoned Weichen?"

The emperor didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly, "I heard that your hometown is from Yangzhou, and your mother raised you by embroidery...... I wonder if she's okay now? ”

"My mother died of illness the year I was drafted."

The man sent by the Emperor had told him about it, and what he wanted to know was ......

"Did she say anything to you when she died?"

I don't know why the emperor suddenly cared about his mother's affairs, but when the emperor asked, Wang Zhenghao couldn't answer, thought about it and replied, "No." ”

"Did she tell you about your father?" The Emperor asked tentatively.

"My mother never mentioned my father." Wang Zhenghao guessed that his father was either dead, or he had done something sorry for his mother, so his mother would take him alone and rely on him for his life, and let him follow her surname.

Hearing this, the emperor's expression darkened, and then he didn't give up and asked again, "Your mother really didn't mention your father at all?" ”

"I really didn't mention it, by the way, my mother handed me a snuffbox on her deathbed, saying that it was used by my father."

Seeing that the emperor kept asking about his father, Wang Zhenghao wondered if the emperor knew his father.

When the emperor heard his words, his expression was stunned, and the next moment he remembered something.

The emperor looked at Wang Zhenghao and asked anxiously, "What about the snuff bottle?" ”

"I gave it away."

"How can you give away what your mother gave you away at will?" The emperor reprimanded him unhappily.

"Since it was left to me by my mother, why can't I give it away?" Wang Zhenghao asked rhetorically.

"Won't you stay and think about it?" reprimanded, and then thought that he had been growing up in the mountains, the emperor sighed lightly, waved his hand and said, "That's it, it's not your fault for this." ”

Looking at his somewhat mother-like face, remembering the past encounter with his mother, the emperor slowed down and said, "The war in the west is decided, and now the remnants of the southeast have not been cleared, and I plan to send you to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to suppress the Kou, are you willing?" ”

In fact, he had received a report a few days ago that he originally wanted Mo Che to do it.

But something happened to him recently, and he asked Wang Zhenghao to go to Pingkou at this time, intentionally wanting him to receive this credit.

Naturally, he will not treat the truly meritorious generals badly, but he just wants to take this opportunity to give this child some compensation.

When he was young, he went to Jiangnan several times, and he lost this child and his mother for a long time, because of his mother's identity, he could not recognize Kaiping openly, so he could only compensate for it in this way.

Wang Zhenghao actually wanted to go back to the southeast for a long time, and he wanted to find his eldest brother and find that child.

When he heard that the emperor was going to send him to war again, he accepted it without thinking about it.

"Obey."

"You seem happy to be there?"

"Yes, I'm going back to see someone."

"What made you so anxious to go back? Is it your wife? ”

"It's my eldest brother."

“……”

"Do you have a wife?"

"Not yet, by the way, may I ask the emperor, my current identity may marry the daughter of the Houfu?"

"You are a third-grade military general, and a meritorious man is naturally worthy." After answering, the emperor continued to ask with concern, "Could it be that which marquis's daughter you have a crush on?" ”

Hearing the emperor himself say that he could wake up the daughter of the marquis, Wang Zhenghao smiled heartily and said, "It's the daughter of Xia Chengzhen Haihou." ”

Seeing that he already had a crush on him, the emperor said on a whim, "It turned out to be the Shi family, and since you have a crush on someone, it is better for me to marry you." ”

"The emperor wants to marry his ministers?" Wang Zhenghao was overjoyed, the emperor ordered marriage, this is a great honor, how could he not agree, he was busy thanking, "The minister thanked the emperor first." ”

"I have given you a marriage, but there are conditions, you have to go and clean up the remnants of the southeast. When you come back, I will give you a Marquis of Guanhai, and then you will marry the daughter of the Shi family, isn't it more beautiful? "The emperor is kind and persuasive.

"Marquis?" Wang Zhenghao's eyes widened, and he said with doubts on his face, "The emperor gave me a title, why is this?" ”

As soon as he entered the imperial study, he felt that the emperor treated him differently, and now he had to help him become a marquis, which made him even more suspicious.

But he is just a small general, and the other party is a high Son of Heaven, what does he have to covet the emperor?

After a moment of silence, the emperor did not answer and asked, "Is your mother's maiden name Lai Qingyu?" ”

Seeing that he had been asking about his mother's parents, Wang Zhenghao had already felt something different in his heart, and now he heard him say his mother's name before his death, which confirmed the clear test in his heart, "My mother's name is Qingyu, right, does the emperor know her?" ”

Looking at him, the emperor recalled the events of that year, and said slowly, "In the past, before I ascended the throne, I was once in trouble, but fortunately your mother helped. ”

He glanced at the people in front of him, when his son was born, he only stayed for two days before he had to leave, and it had been three years since he didn't go back to look for their mother and son, but he had only seen each other in a hurry.

Later, when I wanted to pick them up and go back to the capital, the building was already empty.

For all these years, he had been secretly sending people to inquire about their mother and son, and it was not long ago that he finally heard from her, but he did not expect that she was dead, and his exiled son had made a great contribution to this battle.

More than 30 years ago, he went down to the south of the Yangtze River and was chased and killed, and the guard Tai was half killed, and the chief guard escorted him all the way to escape, and finally died to protect him under the repeated pursuit of the enemy.

He got lost and was accidentally saved by her, and he didn't want to have a muscle relationship with her after a drunken experience.

Just two days after she gave birth, he left temporarily because of something, and then he found her three years later, but he didn't expect her to take the opportunity to take the child away the next day, this time, she disappeared without a trace, and he couldn't find her again.

He looked at his son with gloomy eyes, but he didn't expect this parting, he and her were separated forever, and there was no goodbye.

Before that, he had already married many women, but what he remembered most in this life was the love that arose with her in the midst of adversity.

She was such a sassy woman, and until she left him, he never knew if she had affection for him, or if she had a grudge against him.

Hearing the emperor say that his mother had helped him, Wang Zhenghao suddenly realized, "I see, no wonder I said that the emperor was very good to me." ”

"For your mother's sake, I want to recognize you as my son." Although he can't be recognized justifiably, he still wants to give his son a name.

First wanted to give him a title, and now he wants to recognize him as a righteous son, Wang Zhenghao never expected that because of his mother, the emperor would be so favored by him, and he was a little flattered.

The chief eunuch who was standing on the side seemed to be dumbfounded when he saw him, and reminded him with a smile-

"The emperor is so favored, isn't the general happy to thank him?"

After being stunned for a moment, Wang Zhenghao ran down and thanked the emperor, "The minister thanks the emperor for his grace, but the minister is from a poor background and has a low status, so I am afraid that he cannot afford to be the emperor's son." ”

The emperor said in a deep voice, "Who dares to say that you can't afford it, I am willing to recognize you, you will be my righteous son, not to mention that you are brave and good at fighting, resourceful, and have made great contributions to the court at a young age, which is enough to set an example for the ministers and the people."

In this way, I will first decree that you will be recognized as a righteous son, and when you go to the southeast this time to clear the remnants of the sins, and after your triumphant return, I will give you a title. ”

Without waiting for him to answer, the emperor hurriedly said, "Since I recognize you as a righteous son, then I will also give you a name by the way, and I will call Helian Yun Gui ......." In this way, it can be regarded as recognizing his son.

was stunned, he didn't expect the emperor to change his surname, and just wanted to object, but the chief eunuch urged him to thank him with a smile.

"The emperor gave the country a surname, this is a great honor, and the general is not quick to thank him."

He was a little annoyed, and it wasn't that he begged the emperor to change his surname, why did he want him to thank him, but remembering that the old general had repeatedly told him to abide by the palace etiquette before entering the palace, he had to grit his teeth and endure it, and then knelt down, "The minister bows to thank the emperor." ”

"General, since the emperor has given you a new name, you can use this new name in the future." The chief eunuch was the emperor's confidant, so he naturally understood the reason why the emperor had repeatedly favored him, and kindly reminded him.

Wang Zhenghao was taken aback, "Will I no longer use my name in the future?" He didn't want to change his name at all, not to mention that the emperor not only changed his name, but even changed his surname.

Seeing that he didn't seem to want to change his name, the emperor didn't embarrass him too much, and said, "If you don't get used to it, you can use your original name again for the time being." ”

He smiled bitterly in his heart, he had already been grateful for his name if he had been given by others, and he couldn't wait to tell the world about this honor when he went back.
