After rebirth, Zha Gong begged me to love him [Rebirth]

Wen Jue took the tea, picked up the tea lid on the side and lightly skimmed off the froth, and took a sip, the familiar fragrance filled her lips and teeth.

He smiled in satisfaction, Wang Weizhi stood beside him as if infected by Wen Jue's gentle breath, and laughed too.

It just lasted for several months, no matter how Wen Jue tried to maintain his health, his health was getting worse and worse. Emperor Wen was so anxious that he put all the political affairs handled by the prince on hold, and invited many imperial physicians for diagnosis and treatment, but no improvement was seen.

The deep bone-deep knife wound on his back was extremely difficult to heal. No matter what wound medicine was applied, the wound would open again the next day. Afterwards, the flesh and blood around the wound had long been festered and rotted, and even gave off bursts of stench Come.

At first, Wang Weizhi was able to push Wen Jue to the back courtyard to relax every day, but later, Wen Jue could only linger on the bed every day with soup and medicine as company.

Listening to his violent cough every night, Wang Weizhi would tremble with fear, for fear that Wen Jue wouldn't be able to open his eyes again the next day.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this benevolent prince may not have much time. Later, even Emperor Wen visited the Prince's Palace less and less. Although he is the king of a country, he is also a father. The beloved son looked haggard in front of him and died slowly.

During the period, Wei Zheng visited several times instead of the Wei family, and he and Wang Weizhi were nodding acquaintances. Wen Jue seemed to trust him very much, and even wanted to entrust Wang Weizhi to him for a while, but Wang Weizhi refused to leave no matter what, so the matter was over. .

The weather was exceptionally sunny that day, and Wen Jue's spirits improved a lot. The wound on his back had been rubbed with medicine, and the pain eased, so he picked up leisure time and asked Wang Weizhi to push him out to relax.

He said: "Trapped in...cough...cough...in the palace for a long time, I'm very tired...coughcough...!"

He had to cough several times for a single sentence, bleeding from the wound on his back.

Although Wang Weizhi felt uncomfortable, it was rare for Wen Jue to feel leisurely, and he didn't want to please him.

"Okay, I'll go and push His Highness's chair over here."

After Wang Weizhi finished speaking, he turned to the palace and pushed out the wheelchair that had been left unused for several months.

Wen Jue just looked at him indifferently, with a slight smile on her thin and pale lips.

Wang Weizhi carefully helped him sit on the chair, "Your Highness, do you want to go to the pond to feed the fish first?"

Wen Jue nodded, "Let's go."

Wang Weizhi pushed him to the pond. Wen Jue used to come here to feed the fish, and the fish seemed to know him well.

As soon as they arrived, the fish swam over in groups, opening their mouths like babies waiting to be fed by His Royal Highness.

Wen Jue was very energetic today, with Wang Weizhi's support, he sat up straight and grabbed the bait and sprinkled it.

The fish in the pond immediately exploded, scrambling for food, Wen Jue watched happily, pointed at the fish and said, "Look, how carefree they are."

Wang Weizhi felt sad when he heard that, and replied: "Your Highness will definitely recover."

Wen Jue smiled and didn't speak. After feeding him a handful of bait, Wang Weizhi pushed him into the courtyard again. There was a pavilion where Wen Jue used to like to drink tea and enjoy flowers.

The two entered the pavilion, and Wen Jue retired the remaining attendants. He was really in good spirits today, and his eyes were black and bright.

After Wang Weizhi settled the people, he usually said, "Your Highness, I'll fetch your tea set."

He thought that Wen Jue would smile and nod to let him go, but today Wen Jue stopped him.

The pale lips faded, and he said: "Weizhi, there is one thing that has been hidden in my heart for many years, would you like to listen to me?"

Wang Weizhi looked at him in a daze, and told him intuitively that he should not listen, if he listened to him, something bad would happen.

But Wen Jue looked up at him with a sad expression, and said, "I've never told anyone about this, but I want to say it now, I don't want him to be a regret."

Wang Weizhi's heart was suffocated, but in the end, under Wen Jue's pleading gaze, he sat down anyway.

Wen Jue smiled, and his eyes moved far away, as if he was looking at the blue sky, or looking at the past through him.

He coughed violently and finally managed to calm down, "It's something that happened when I was very young."

"Father has just ascended the throne. I was not a prince at that time. Like other princes, I was just one of his many sons."

Wang Weizhi listened quietly, Wen Jue coughed violently and continued: "Later, a woman took a baby and found it outside the palace, and the woman pushed the baby out, claiming that it was a dragon, and the emperor naturally denied it. In a fit of rage, he drove people out of the capital, and the mother and son stayed in the suburbs every day, hoping that the emperor's father would change his mind one day, but at that time, the emperor's concubine was pregnant with the fourth younger brother, so there was no way they could care about the mother and son. "

"Is that mother and son the third prince?"

Wen Jue turned to Wang Weizhi, "You guessed it right, this mother and son are the third prince Wen Xian and his biological mother Mu Shuangshuang."

"Then what happened later? Why did the emperor recognize him?"

Wen Jue turned back and said: "Because the fourth prince's mother and concubine had difficulty in childbirth, she went to the delivery bed before the child was born, and the midwives could only drag the fourth prince out of her mother's concubine's stomach with all their might, but It took so long that the little child died when it was dragged out."

"The death of both the four princes and their biological mother is a taboo for the royal family, so the father went to the temple on the outskirts of the city to ask for a lottery. The master explained that he needed to give birth to a prince to wash away the evil spirit, but let alone let the concubine If you are pregnant, it will take ten months to conceive, so where can you find the prince all of a sudden?"

"So the emperor thought of the mother and son?"

Wen Jue nodded, "Father brought the mother and son back to the palace, but father didn't like him very much. If the prince didn't need to be happy, I am afraid that the mother and son would not be able to enter the palace in this life."

"You know, when you are born in the royal family, you can't help yourself. If you don't have a backer to rely on, it will be very difficult to live a good life in the palace."

"I still remember that when I first met Wen Xian, he was only so young, and he was fierce like a little wolf cub. Maybe he was frightened, and he would show his teeth when he saw anyone, but the more he was like this, the less he hated his father. Huang Huanxin, after taking their mother and child into the palace, he never asked about it."

"At that time, the second prince Wen Shen was young, and the Shen family was purged again. Wen Shen's mother's family was the only one, and the power in the world also created Wen Shen's perverse and domineering temperament. At that time, the two didn't know how to hide, and looked at each other. It's not pleasing to the eye, but Wen Shen has someone to back him up, but Wen Xian doesn't."

"So he was bullied by everyone when he urinated?"

Wen Jue nodded, "The servants in the palace are all things that follow the wind. If Wen Xian is not favored, the servants can bully him vigorously. But it's nothing, it's because of what happened."

Having said that, Wen Jue closed her eyes in pain, as if thinking of some unbearable memory.

After a long time, he opened his eyes, with some apologies in his eyes, he sighed and said quietly: "At that time he was the closest to me, and I was the oldest at that time, I feel sorry for him who has been bullied all day long, so I always want to treat him He is better, and this may be the reason why he got close to me, but I was too naive at that time, I didn’t know that every time I treated him better, the palace people would bully him more, and it was too late when I found out later.”

"Once he came to me, when my father was teaching me how to handle political affairs. I knew that my father wanted to make me the crown prince, so I wanted to show that I could not disappoint my father. The eunuch came in and said a few words to him, and the father followed him away, just after the father left for a while, Wen Xian came looking for him."

"It turned out that he got a piece of good pastry and wanted to share it with me. I was very happy at the time, so I led him to the table. He was really talented. Although he was still young at that time, he was already Being able to understand political affairs may be because he has seen too many things in the world during the years of wandering. I was surprised by his understanding of these political affairs, and wrote down what he said one by one on the paper my father prepared for me. He is very obedient, just looking at me with a pair of beautiful fox eyes."

"But later, when I was writing, I broke one of my father's favorite inkstones. I knew that it was my father's favorite thing. It was given to him by a woman who died many years before my father took the throne. He loved it very much. I used it for many years and refused to change it, but it was broken by me on that day. I was so scared to death, I was afraid that my father would be left out in the cold, I was afraid that I would lose my position as the crown prince, and I was afraid that I would fall like Wen Xian. "

When he said this, his face was pale and painful, like a child who had made a big mistake.

Wang Weizhi stepped forward and gently smoothed his hair to comfort him, "It's not your fault, you were just a child who needed father's love at that time."

Wen Jue paused and said: "No, I was wrong." He looked at Wang Weizhi, "I am not like what you said at all. I am cowardly, selfish and timid. The so-called benevolence is just an excuse to pretend."

He continued, "I smashed that inkstone, and Wen Xian and I were frightened. The palace people outside the door heard the noise inside and came in one after another. When they saw the disaster we had caused, they knelt down in fright. Trembling before the dragon case, it was the eunuch in charge of the emperor who saw it and passed it on to the emperor."

"I will never forget my father's expression at that time. Is it a look I have never seen before? I didn't understand it at that time, but now I see my mother and concubine seeing things and thinking about others all day long, but I do understand."

He seemed to be tired from speaking, his lips were a little dry, he licked his dry lips lightly, Wang Weizhi paid attention: "Your Highness, let me fetch the tea set."

He said he wanted to get up, but Wen Jue grabbed him, "No, wait until I finish."

Wang Weizhi sat down again.

Wen Jue continued: "Father looked at me and Wen Xian furiously, as if he wanted to skin us and cramp us. The eunuch in charge has followed Father for several years, but he knew the origin of the inkstone, and gave me a wink. Thinking that he wanted me to admit my mistake, I trembled in fright and wanted to kneel down, but the eunuch pushed the ignorant and restless Wen Xian out."

He closed his eyes as he said, "Wen Xian has never been loved by the emperor. At that time, Wen Xian was pushed out, and the emperor did not doubt him and directly punished him with ten sticks! Such a young child almost killed him with ten sticks." However, my father took the inkstone away and saw my understanding of political affairs on the table. He felt a little relieved and dissipated his anger. He sat me on his lap and patted my head to praise me. Me, but he didn't know that the culprit who broke the inkstone was me."

"During the execution, Wen Xian gritted his teeth and kept silent. He just looked at me like that, his eyes full of disbelief. Later, he couldn't stand the pain. He said he didn't fall, but the emperor didn't believe it, so he Look at me, look at me with eyes for help, but I am too cowardly, I am afraid, and I avoid his sight."
