Rebirth of the Son of Heart

What Wei Jingyuan ordered Liang Zhen to do was actually not that difficult. Since Liang Zhen had been in the rivers and lakes for many years, even if he had nothing to prove, he could still deduct money from Chao Zhifu's teeth.However, this matter can only be done once, if you want to ask for silver taels in the long run, there will be many troubles, so, just before Liang Zhen left, Wei Jingyuan asked him again, only this time, not to visit again.

Liang Zhen readily agreed, then jumped out of the window and disappeared without a trace.Today is Princess Chen's return to the mansion to visit relatives, Wei Jingyuan has to pack up and get ready to welcome her. At noon, Prince Chen and Princess Chen finally arrived at the gate of Yongguo Duke's Mansion.At this time, Wei Guohuai was still in the palace, and the matter of welcoming him naturally fell on the eldest son Wei Jingyuan.

Out of the etiquette of the two countries, there is no need to kneel down, and after exchanging courteous greetings, Wei Jingyuan personally led Chen Wang and Chen Wang Concubine to the main courtyard.After crossing the threshold of the main courtyard, they became a family. When they reached the old lady's room, Princess Chen greeted her first, then called the lady sister-in-law, and then sat beside Prince Chen.

"Uncle, Aunt, Yuan'er greets you all." Wei Jingyuan lifted his robe and knelt down. Seeing this, Wei Qiaoer hurriedly stopped him. Wei Qiaoer was already beautiful, but when she smiled, it was even more heart-stirring, which is not surprising. Zhao Jue will be overwhelmed by it.

Wei Jingyuan stood in front of Wei Qiaoer, and she looked at her carefully and said: "I haven't seen you for many years, Yuan'er is already a grown-up, my aunt still remembers that when you just left the house, you were still a baby, and you just refused to hold onto your aunt's skirt." Let go, crying is very sad."

Wei Jingyuan smiled slightly and said, "How can my aunt remember it so clearly? Could it be that she remembered it to deliberately tease Yuan'er?"

Wei Jingyuan's words elicited roars of laughter. Wei Qiaoer smiled without showing her teeth, and lightly patted Wei Jingyuan's shoulder and said, "Auntie came back this time with a lot of fun, and I will send the servants to the East Chamber later. go."

Wei Jingyuan only felt that Wei Qiaoer was not as carefree as before, maybe it was because she was in the emperor's house, she became like this as a last resort.Wei Jingyuan couldn't help lamenting that the world is impermanent, and he still likes the old Wei Qiaoer, who dared to speak, dare to do, dare to love and hate.

"Also, my aunt brought a lot of seasonal fresh fruits from Chen Country, but the long journey will affect the taste, how about asking someone to deliver some to you?"

Wei Jingyuan responded: "Everything is arranged by my aunt." After finishing speaking, Wei Jingyuan straightened his robe and stood beside Wei Qiaoer, and then Wei Jingcun came forward to greet him.After all, Wei Jingcun was a bastard, Wei Qiaoer only exchanged a few words with him, and there was nothing else to say.After Wei Jingcun withdrew, Wei Jingyuan peeped at him a few times in the dark, only to see his brows were slightly wrinkled, his eyes were full of unwillingness, it could be seen that Wei Qiaoer's treatment just now had ignited the anger in his heart.

Wei Guohuai doesn't have many heirs, but now there are only two who pay their respects. As for those who didn't come, Wei Qiaoer has also heard about them. One was burned to death in the palace while still in the womb, and the other was imprisoned for doing something wrong. The ancestral hall, as for the remaining one, has already lost his hand and is recuperating in the room.As a result, as Wei Guohuai's own sister, she was a little anxious.

"Mother." Wei Qiaoer called out, parting her thin lips lightly.

The old lady looked at her with a smile, "Qiao Er, do you have something to tell your mother?"

Wei Qiaoer nodded, "Mother, I'm going back to the mansion with the lord to visit my relatives. There is still plenty of time, so I will disturb my mother during this time, and I hope that my mother will promise Qiaoer to live in the mansion."

Hearing this, the old lady looked at Zhao Jue, "This is your home, you and the prince can live in peace."

Zhao Jue said politely: "Then bother the old lady."

Wei Qiaoer thought for a while, then said to Zhao Jue: "My lord is exhausted, why don't you let someone help you to rest in your room?"

Zhao Jue guessed that she had something to say to the old lady, so she said, "The princess and the old lady haven't seen each other for many years, I'm afraid I have a lot to say, so the king will leave first." Zhao Jue saluted the old lady, and then Then he was led by the servants to the wing room of the main courtyard.

Everyone is not a fool, what Zhao Jue said just now was already mixed with the order to expel guests, even though he is not the master of the Yongguo Mansion.The eldest lady got up first, saluted the old lady and said: "I'm afraid that the mother and the princess have something to say, so I won't be able to stay any longer."

The old lady responded: "Alright, by the way, order the servants to go to the kitchen and keep an eye on it."

"Yes."

After the eldest lady left, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Wang resigned and left the main courtyard.Wei Jingyuan stayed at the last to leave. When he went out, Wei Jingyuan heard Wei Qiaoer mention Wei Guohuai's heir, so he made a bold guess. If he didn't expect it, Wei Qiaoer wanted to get a concubine for Wei Guohuai through the old lady's hand. ?

Blood is thicker than water, there is nothing wrong with Wei Qiaoer doing this, but... Wei Jingyuan sneered silently, it would be fine if Wei Qiaoer could get her wish, I am afraid that some people in the court will not let this matter go so smoothly, right?

On the way back to the East Chamber, Wei Jingyuan happened to see Zhao Jue, who was talking to a handsome man.Wei Jingyuan was very puzzled, why is Zhao Jue not in the main courtyard at this time, but at the lotus pond in the east chamber?Wei Jingyuan walked over with all kinds of doubts, and when he approached, Wei Jingyuan realized that Zhao Jue's expression was not good.

The handsome man spotted Wei Jingyuan first, shut his mouth quickly, turned around and stood aside.Zhao Jue turned his head, met Wei Jingyuan's plain gaze and smiled slightly: "So it's Yuan'er, who am I?"

Wei Jingyuan stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "I have seen the prince."

Zhao Jue waved his hand and said, "At this time, I am not the prince, but your uncle, just call me uncle."

Wei Jingyuan nodded, "Why didn't my uncle rest in the children's room in the main courtyard, but came to this lotus pond?" It was just an ordinary question, there was no doubt to follow, and it was not an arrogance of identity.

Zhao Jue looked at the lotus pond in a blink of an eye, and said with a slight smile, "I couldn't sleep when I got back to the room, so I took Chong Wei for a walk around, and I came to the lotus pond before I knew it." Zhao Jue looked down at the people in the pond. Lotus, "I remember the year when I married your aunt, it was no different from now."

Wei Jingyuan smiled, and echoed: "Except for my aunt and me, no one in this mansion likes this pond of lotus."

Zhao Jue nodded, "There is also a pond of lotus in the palace, but it's just a sight to miss."

Wei Jingyuan looked at him and said doubtfully, "Auntie misses her family."

Zhao Jue said with a slight smile: "How could you not think about it? She is a woman who married far away from another country. It is natural to be homesick, but as her husband, there is nothing she can do. She is helpless."

"My uncle is overthinking. If my aunt understands that you care about her so much, she will be very moved."

Zhao Jue looked at Wei Jingyuan intently, and smiled knowingly: "Yuan'er has really grown up, if he can enter the official career, maybe he will become a pillar of the Northern Dynasty."

"Uncle is absurd."

Zhao Jue stood up with a smile, put his hands behind his back and said, "Whether it's too early to say absurd praise or not, it's only waiting for the future to tell, Yuan'er said so?"

Wei Jingyuan cupped his hands and said, "Yuan'er really can't predict the future."

"This king is a bit tired, so I'll go back first." Zhao Jue bypassed Wei Jingyuan, and left the lotus pond with Chongwei.

It is said that the emperor's temperament is uncertain, but this prince is also like this.Wei Jingyuan quickly returned to the east chamber, sat in the room and read the book while waiting for the good news from Liang Zhen.Unexpectedly, he didn't wait for Liang Zhen's arrival, but instead waited for Li Zhuoyan.

Li Zhuoyan was still the same as before, rushing into the east chamber in a hurry, without giving the servants a chance to report.Li Zhuoyan stepped over the threshold, and when he saw Wei Jingyuan, he frowned, and said in a low tone: "Yuan'er still has the heart to study here."

Wei Jingyuan raised his eyes and glanced at him, "The sky is dry and things are dry, the master's anger may be too strong, why not sit down and drink a cup of herbal tea to reduce the fire."

Li Zhuo said in his heart, good you Wei Jingyuan, I acted so realistically, you didn't have any disturbances at all, your mind is really calm enough.Li Zhuoyan still maintained his disturbed appearance, and after sitting down, he said, "Yuan'er, I have something important to tell you as a teacher when I come here this time."

Wei Jingyuan lowered his eyes to read the book, and said softly: "The master said so."

"Before I talk about the matter, I would like to ask you, why didn't you greet me when I came in just now?"

Wei Jingyuan paused, looked up at him and said: "As the master's closed disciple, I naturally want to imitate the master and use the master as an example. After getting along with the master in recent days, Yuan'er naturally found that the master is a person who doesn't care about trivial matters. The etiquette is just for outsiders to see, and now it’s only you and me here, so all the etiquettes are not as good as they are, don’t you think?”

Li Zhuoyan knew that he would say that, but he was not angry, but rather relieved, if Wei Jingyuan was different from others, why did he insist on accepting him as his disciple?Li Zhuoyan suppressed the urge to laugh, and said in a low voice: "Forget it, I'll talk about the etiquette later, the thing I want to tell you as a teacher is about the third prince."

Wei Jingyuan was startled, "What happened to the third prince?"

Li Zhuoyan sighed bitterly, shook his head and said: "The third prince has not thought about eating and drinking these days, and his body is getting haggard day by day. No, just last night, there was a sudden wind and cold, and he is still burning."

Wei Jingyuan asked in surprise, "What did the imperial doctor say?"

Li Zhuoyan let out a long sigh, "The imperial doctor said that the third prince has a hard-to-solve problem. If it goes on for a long time, I'm afraid it will be..." Li Zhuoyan's expression was painful and sad, which made Wei Jingyuan unable to figure it out.The acting was so realistic that it felt like a fake.

Wei Jingyuan remained calm, and asked softly: "Then why did the master come to look for me?"

Li Zhuoyan looked at him, "The third prince and you are both my closed disciples. They should love each other, but now the third prince is seriously ill, but you are only studying at home. If this matter gets to the emperor, what should we do?" .”

Wei Jingyuan raised the corner of his mouth, "What does Master Yi mean?"

"The teacher wants you to enter the palace to see the third prince. Although the teacher is tired of etiquette, this matter is also related to your future. What does Yuan'er think?"

Wei Jingyuan pretended to think, then nodded and said: "Master is very considerate of his disciples."

Li Zhuoyan could tell that Wei Jingyuan didn't believe his words at all, but it didn't matter, even if he didn't believe him, he would still enter the palace.

Wei Jingyuan put down the book in his hand, and said with a smile in his eyes: "That's fine, I won't be allowed to enter the palace for a while, but I miss the third prince, so please trouble Master, take me into the palace."

As expected, Li Zhuoyan agreed, "Okay, let's enter the palace right away."
