Rebirth of the Son Raiders

Emperor Shun died in the 23rd year of Renxian, and his younger brother Li Qiyu succeeded to the throne in the same year, and changed his reign name to Zhuangwu in the second year, and was known as Emperor Wu in history.

At this point, Liangzhou's imperial power was officially replaced, and then it entered a decade of recuperation and prosperity.

The twelve princes of the first emperor changed their fief to Xicang, left Tianjing after the New Year's Eve in the first year of Zhuangwu, set off for the Western Regions, and then guarded the border as princes.

His Majesty took pity on Emperor Shun's two youngest sons, and allowed the Empress Dowager to raise them in the palace until they were 12 years old, and then let them go out of the palace to build a mansion, and leave Tianjing to their respective fiefdoms when they became adults.

Although the Empress Dowager felt sorry for this, she also knew that there was no room for change. Under the persuasion of Nanny Le, she could only hold back and raise the late emperor's youngest son in Ci'an Palace, and she couldn't avoid it.

On the grounds that the war had just ended and the whole country needed to recuperate, Emperor Wu canceled the customary palace draft, and named Xu, the concubine of King Yu, the wife of Ningguo, allowing her to return home.

This incident caused tremors in the court, but the censors at Yushitai did not report frequently as the courtiers hoped.

Zhuang Shunyuan, the former imperial historian, was found by Li Jingxun to be the third prince when the second prince forced the palace, so when he seduced and murdered the third prince and killed his party members, he had already been arrested and sent to prison, and he was severely sentenced to death. , and the other two censors from Yushitai.

Yushi Zhongcheng Wang Lushen, as an imperial envoy, had already gone to Pingwu years ago. He temporarily took the responsibility of Shi Linyanhong, the governor of Pingyang, and managed the affairs of Pingwu and Hanyang counties.

The censors who have experienced life and death have either become the new emperor, or they are too timid to speak out, and some of them feel that this is entirely His Majesty's private matter, so they choose not to talk about it.

In addition to Zhongshu making Mr. Xu more depressed, many people gradually figured it out.

Regarding the issue of too few imperial heirs, fewer and fewer people use this as a reason for the draft.

There are probably more sons of Emperor Xuan and Emperor Shun, but what happened?

Not to mention the Seven Kings Rebellion in the previous dynasty, just past the ten kings vying for the heir, and the prince forced the palace to kill his brothers. Such a painful lesson is still in front of us. At ease; leisurely.

Your Majesty now has two princes. Although it is unclear which one the official family prefers as the heir, he should not follow the old path of the previous emperor. There will be a royal history book.

Of course, everything is on the right track right now, and this is the time for the new emperor to establish his prestige, and few people will be "critical ministers" at this time.

The situation in the DPRK and China stabilized, time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the early spring of the first year of Zhuang Wu. At this time, the weather had just turned warm and the earth had recovered.

In contrast, the atmosphere in the palace has not eased due to the arrival of spring.

The queen mother spared the queen and the little prince from greeting her, but in fact Ulan Tuya hoped to find something to do. Every day when the youngest son asked Hongxiu, her heart was always sinking, and it was rare for her to feel at ease.

It has been four months since Master Wujue took Lin Yanhong to retreat for recuperation, and until Lin Yanhong's birthday, there was still no definite news.

This morning, Ulan Tuya asked the Imperial Dining Room to make a bowl of longevity noodles.

Xiao Jingxi sat obediently in her arms, staring at the bowl of fragrant and steaming noodles on the table with her round and bright eyes, and touched the edge of the table twice with her little hand.

His soul is now sitting next to the noodle bowl, just like the main body, watching the noodles in the bowl motionless.

Wulan Tuya squeezed Li Jingxi's little hand, and said softly, "Jingxi, do you know what day it is today?"

The little guy raised his chin slightly, looked up at his mother, then shook his head honestly, expressing that he didn't know.

A child has no concept of days. He doesn't even know when his own birthday is. If adults say celebrate, he can celebrate as long as he is obedient.

"Today is Brother Hong's birthday... Your Brother Hong will be 21 years old today."

Recently, the little guy is learning how to count. He is trying to count 21 clearly with his little finger. Unfortunately, he can only count to ten. He doesn't know how many 21 there are.

——Wow, brother Hong is already ten years old this year, and he is what adults call adults!

Li Jingxi thinks that brother Hong is good-looking and powerful, and now that he is ten years old, he should be even more beautiful and powerful, so he can't help clapping his little hands, very happy.

His soul was unclear, so when he saw the main body clapping his hands, he also clapped his little paws happily, thinking that the main body was about to start eating noodles.

But Xiao Jingxi laughed for a while, and suddenly thought of something, raised his head and asked Wulan Tuya a question that he asked every day: "Where is Brother Hong? Where is Brother Hong?"

Wulan Tuya patted his head and explained as usual: "Brother Hong was too tired before and was still sleeping. When he wakes up, he can play with Jingxi."

Li Jingxi nodded: "Let Brother Hong sleep well!"

"Brother Hong is asleep, and he can't eat longevity noodles by himself. Let Jingxi eat the noodles on behalf of brother, so that brother can be healthy and safe, okay?"

Hearing this, the little guy nodded immediately, waited for Wulan Tuya to push the noodle bowl in front of him, put him on a chair beside him and sat down, and fed him himself.

As if after eating this bowl of noodles, Lin Yanhong could really live a long life, the little guy ate with extra care.

Wulan Tuya looked at the young son's well-behaved appearance, her eyes were slightly moist.

……

At the same time, in Yunshui County thousands of miles away, in the main house of Lin's eldest family, someone was eating longevity noodles on behalf of Lin Yanhong.

The eldest son Lin Yansi is 12 years old. Since the new emperor ascended the throne and added Enke, he participated in this year's child birth test. Although he did not get the top case like his elder brother Lin Yanhong, he passed smoothly.

It has been eight years since he was taken into the long room by Lin Feng and Lin Yanhong when he was four years old. Later, he was adopted under Lin Feng's knee and became brothers with Lin Yanhong.

He grew up next to Lin Yanhong when he was young, and he himself is the fifth wife of the Lin family. He looks a bit like Lin Yanhong, except that he has a pair of peach blossom eyes and crooked smiles, and a pair of dimples on his face, which makes him look less gentle. But kind of cute.

Fortunately, Lin Yansi was by Lin Feng's side, and after Lin Yanhong went to Tianjing and the northern border, and after Lin Yanxing swept away his family's property and disappeared, he was by Lin Feng's side.

The father and son closed the courtyard door, and Lin Feng watched Lin Yansi study, even if he had to face the increasingly irritable Lin Qiongde and the increasingly gloomy Lin Jun, it was not so unbearable.

Lin Qiongde was furious last year because of Lin Yanxing's incident, he suffered from heart palpitations and almost lost his life.

With the warning of Lin Tong's condition, Lin Qiongde panicked immediately, and did not dare to lose his temper at will, and now he is nestling in the house to maintain his health.

Lin Jun was already 27 years old and had failed many trials. This time he added Enke, and he was going to participate in Chunwei, but he probably didn't know the result.

Because they have been married for several years and still have no children, Lin Qiongde suppressed the two concubines for Lin Jun in the past two years, and promised that if he had a son, he would become a concubine.

The Lin Lu family had a few quarrels, but in the end, they did not dare to completely offend the Lin family because Lin Yanhong, who was favored by the officials, came out of the Lin family, so they had to let it go.

But in private, she let her natal family spread the news that it is the "tradition" of the Lin family that it is not rich in children.

Lin Qiongde was almost childless, Lin Feng only had two sons, and Lin Yanhong had managed to raise his health, but it seemed to be failing in the past two years.

There has been no good news about Lin Jun's house, and this "rumor" has been confirmed. While watching the excitement, many people are also speculating whether Lin Yanhong, the eldest grandson of the house, will be able to come to life, maintain a good health, and continue his legend .

Lin Yanhong was not in Pingwu for half a year, and the fact that he went to Beijing to recuperate was made public, so he couldn't hide it from the Lin family.

Empress Ulan Tuya felt that instead of letting them know some hearsay news, it would be better to tell them the truth, so that they would know the most accurate things, and would not cause unnecessary worries due to messy rumors.

So Lin Yanhong was picked up by Master Wujue, and Li Jingcheng wrote to Lin Feng himself, telling him that Master Wujue had brought Lin Yanhong to the palace to recuperate, and it would take several months to recover.

Although Lin Feng was worried, he thought that it was the eminent monk of Huayin Temple who was helping him, plus there were imperial doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau in the palace, and there were precious medicinal materials that ordinary people could not see, so the conditions were more complete than those at home and in Pingwu Some, it will be better for his brother Hong, so I can only press down my worries.

Originally, he was worried that Lin Yansi's knowledge of his brother's illness would affect his exams, but after thinking about it, Lin Fengsi felt that Lin Yansi grew up beside Lin Yanhong, and his brotherhood was very strong. If Lin Yansi was not informed, he might be sad in the future.

Fortunately, Lin Yansi learned ten percent of Lin Yanhong's tenacity, even when he heard that his brother was seriously ill and was recuperating in Beijing, he did not waver in his resolve.

In turn, he comforted Father Lin and said, "Third brother will definitely recover, and if the child passes the childbirth test, third brother will definitely be very happy."

So he worked harder to prepare for the exam and never slack off.

When it came to Lin Yanhong's birthday, only Lin Feng and Lin Yansi remembered this day and could not have a banquet at home. Lin Feng asked Zihuai to make two bowls of longevity noodles in the back kitchen. The father and son sat at the table and ate it as if It's for Lin Yanhong's birthday.

That side was well done, but the father and son were a bit tasteless after eating it, and finally finished it, Lin Feng sighed: "I don't know what's going on in Beijing now."

Although he really wanted to write to Li Jingcheng, Lin Feng knew that the other party should be the same as himself. When Master Wujue took Lin Yanhong to retreat, he couldn't get any definite news.

They can only wait slowly and continue to wait.

……

More than a month later, the palace was already full of flowers. In the main hall of a palace in Tianjing, Liangzhou, a young man was lying on a bed.

Lin Yanhong slowly opened his eyes, looking at Zhi Yi Tu on the top of the bed.

After a while, probably regaining consciousness, he asked, "What time is it now?"

At this time, a slightly old voice sounded beside him, answering him: "It is the spring of the first year of Zhuang Wu..."
