Rebirth of Glory and Splendour

Chapter 062 Emperor Collapse

The emperor was seriously ill and unable to act as a director. The crown prince had full power to handle the political affairs of the court, and the king of Qin was in charge of border defense.

Wei Zhaosheng was afraid that the situation in Youzhou and Lingzhou that had just been taken back would be unstable, so he not only sent three urgent letters to Huo Qingyang, asking him to be careful, not only to guard against Fuyu people who had moved away, but also to pay attention to those who had surrendered. The court is in an eventful season, and there must be no omissions.

In addition, Wei Zhao sent Lu Ming to Shuozhou to keep a close eye on the movements of the Tiele people.He didn't trust Wesley very much. If he was given an opportunity, the consequences would be unpredictable, so he had to be prepared for any changes in advance.

Theoretically, the emperor's dragon body is unwell, and the princes and grandchildren should take turns to serve the sick, just like the one two years ago.However, except for Wei Zhao, Wei Su didn't summon the other princes at all, let alone let them wait on the sick, and he couldn't see the emperor's face at all.

Prince Wei Ming is busy with political affairs, so it's fine if he has no time to be distracted.Lu Wang Weixiao has no real job, and the most important task every day is to take care of the children. He has a lot of free time, but the number of times he sees the emperor is far less than that of his family.

Dai Wang Wei was still underage and was still studying in the palace school. He and Wei Lan were classmates.The emperor did not summon them to serve the sick, so the normal teaching order of palace studies was not affected.

The two little princes, Wei Hao and Wei Yang, were even younger, not even old enough to study in the palace. They heard that their father was sick, and they all clamored to pay their respects. They couldn't see the emperor, and they were just outside Zichen Palace. Crying all the time.

Wei Hao is lively and cheerful, Wei Yang is like the emperor, and Wei Su has always loved the two elders very much.However, this time, he only summoned them once, and sent someone to tell Yan Li and Zhao Ji to watch the child carefully and not disturb Sheng Jia.

As a result, Wei Zhao became the target of public criticism, and everyone was guessing what the emperor had said when he frequently summoned him.

If it was said that the emperor favored the King of Qin and neglected the East Palace, most people would admit it, but if it was said that the emperor was thinking about changing the crown prince, it didn't look like it.After all, Wei Su just didn't see the crown prince very often, and he was given full power over all matters in the court, and he didn't let the king of Qin intervene.

Besides, although Wei Su doesn't care much about court affairs, occasionally when his health improves, he will summon Sun Shu, Jiang Che, Shangguanxuan and other important officials in the court, and all he says is to let them assist the crown prince. There is no mention of King Qin.

Apart from Wei Zhao, the one who had the most opportunities to meet him was Zhaoyang Hou Junqing.Sometimes the emperor would summon the two of them separately, and when the opportunity was right, they would also meet together.Wei Su still didn't like Wei Chongrong, and would never bring Wei Zhao with him every time he summoned him.But he likes Junhua very much. Every time Junqing didn't bring him to the palace, Wei Su would ask why he didn't bring Junhua.

Facing the emperor's question, Jun Qing calmly explained: "The little monkey likes Rong'er, and if he can't see him in the palace, he naturally doesn't want to come." No matter how much the emperor loves him, the environment in the palace is relatively restrictive , It's normal for children not to like it.

Wei Su frowned, showing dissatisfaction on his face: "Hua'er is going to study soon, why do you still call him little monkeys, little monkeys, it's outrageous." What's more, a smart and handsome child, coupled with such a nondescript little No name, it will make people feel very wild.

Junqing pursed her lips, and smiled slightly: "He is a little monkey, so he calls him kindly."

Wei Su shook his head helplessly, and teased: "The one born in the year of the monkey is called a little monkey. What will the next one be called? Little tiger?" Next year happens to be the year of the tiger. With the simple and rude naming method of Junqing, his second boy is called "Little Monkey". Little Huzi, it was predictable.

Jun Qing was slightly stunned, and unconsciously put his right hand on his abdomen, which had not yet shown the dew, and hung it down again when he recovered.Although his heart was turbulent, he remained calm on the face, not letting the emperor see his ups and downs.

Seeing that Jun Qing hadn't spoken for a long time, Wei Su sighed and said, "Forget it, I'd better give Hua'er a word first, pointing at you two, I don't know what weird things I will come up with, so I don't want to make people laugh. "

What an honor it is for the emperor to bestow the letter, Junqing Jishou thanked him and said: "Your Majesty loves you so much, I have thanked you on behalf of Huaer."

Wei Su waved his hand, his long-illness haggard expression showed a bit of a smile: "The word Huai stands for longing, and the word Xi means light, so Hua'er should use the word Huaixi." He paused, and then asked: "Second boy What's your last name? Have you got your name?"

At this point, Junqing finally understood that the emperor was not joking with him, but was discussing this issue very seriously, and couldn't help being dumbfounded, not knowing what to say for a while.He raised his head, looked straight at the emperor, and murmured after a while: "Your Majesty..."

Wei Su was half lying down, leaning on the pillow, took Jun Qing's words and said: "You two, you two have been hiding all these years, and the trouble is almost the same. You are not tired, I am tired when I look at it, don't hide anymore , I will give you a marriage, and we will be together in an upright manner in the future. To save Hua'er from seeing Xin'er, and calling out to be King Changning, don't be awkward..." The emperor waited for many years, but Ji Xin and Jun Qing never came to him, and finally Couldn't bear it any longer, and said the words of the marriage offer himself.

"But..." Jun Qing did not show Wei Su's expected surprise expression, but said hesitantly: "If I become the Princess of Changning, then Marquis Zhaoyang..." Jun Qing is not someone who cares about status, but Marquis Zhaoyang His title is the only thing his father left him, and he must keep it.

Wei Su laughed lightly when he heard the words: "Silly boy, don't tell me you are not the Marquis of Zhaoyang after you become the princess of Changning?"

For a long time, there has never been a precedent for the eldest son to marry in any family with a title of succession.But this by no means means that those who have inherited the title will lose the title if they marry someone else.It's just that nothing like this has ever happened before.

Jun Qing was stunned, she just felt that her head was in a mess, and she felt like she couldn't turn around.On this day, the shock he received was really too great. It was really unexpected that the emperor would marry him and give their son a name without telling him about the matter between him and Ji Xin.

Wei Su saw that the king had been silent for a long time, and said down to himself: "Looking at you like this, I know that you must have never thought about it, and I don't count on you anymore. I just named the second boy as well." Alright, so you don’t have to hold yourselves for a while.”

Jun Qing finally came to his senses, and said, "What if it's a girl?"

Wei Su burst out laughing, and then said: "Let's call it Ji Hui, no matter if it's the second boy or the second girl, you can use it."

Junqing thanked her again, her mood was ups and downs, the emperor was so strange today, it didn't seem like him at all.

Wei Su kept his word, and within a few days, he made a decree for a marriage.It's just that the two parties who gave the marriage are really surprising, they are actually King Changning and Marquis Zhaoyang.When many people heard the news, their first reaction was, did they hear it wrong? It couldn't be true.

The emperor specifically stated in the imperial decree that although Marquis Zhaoyang married into the Changning Palace, his title will be retained and can be passed on to his sons in the future.

Wei Chongrong heard Wei Zhao talk about this marriage, and his first thought at that time was that the emperor's physical condition was not optimistic, so he was anxious to arrange everything.And Junqing can almost be regarded as the purest child he loves.

Under normal circumstances, the procedures for marriages at the level of the prince, county and king are very cumbersome.Counting from the gift of marriage to the day of the big wedding, there are many people who have been delayed for two or three years.However, Jun Qing and Ji Xin's situation is special, the emperor asked the Shaofu to finish their marriage within this year.

Compared with other people's surprise or sadness, Junhua was undoubtedly the most excited. He first told Wei Chongrong happily that he was going to be an older brother, and then told him very excitedly that his father was going to marry his father. Their whole family can live together from then on.

The wedding between King Changning and Marquis Zhaoyang was officiated by the prince himself, and its standard was only inferior to that of the prince's big wedding back then.Regrettably, under the shadow of the emperor's serious illness, the originally festive wedding also revealed a faint sense of sadness.

Wei Zhao basically didn't go back to the palace anymore, he took Wei Chongrong to live in Yongfu Palace, which was closer to Zichen Palace than the prince's family living in East Palace.No matter which life, the relationship between Wei Chongrong and Wei Su was not close. He didn't feel the sorrow and reluctance from the heart like his father and uncle for his grandfather's imminent death.His sadness was more because of Wei Zhao's sadness.

Every time he came back from Zichen Palace, Wei Zhao's mood would become very depressed. Wei Chongrong tried to comfort him, but he gave up when he found it was not effective.Indeed, comforting words seemed the most pale at this time, and the only thing he could do was to stay by Wei Zhao's side.

One day, when Wei Chongrong returned to the palace after class, he was shocked to see Wei Zhao playing the piano.He never knew that Wei Zhao had such a skill, and he had never seen him demonstrate it before.With curiosity, Wei Chongrong stopped at the door of the study.

A quarter of an hour later, Prince Qin said that he regretted it.Because Wei Zhao's piano skills were so bad that they broke through the lower limit. As a son of man, he couldn't even say a good word against his conscience.Not turning around and leaving on the spot was already the greatest encouragement he gave Wei Zhao.

But it was such an out-of-tune piece, after Wei Chongrong listened to it for a while, he felt a little sad.In order not to touch Wei Zhao's pain, Wei Chongrong did not ask him about this piece of music, and Wei Zhao never played this piece of music again.

When the new year came, the emperor's condition had reached the point where he could not recover from illness.The New Year's Eve banquet was cancelled, and the ancestor worship was done by the prince.Sun Ye told Wei Zhao in private that the emperor was just enduring, and it was hard to say whether he would be able to pass the first month.

In the first month, Wei Su no longer only saw Wei Zhao and Jun Qing, he summoned all his children in the capital side by side, from childhood to adulthood, one by one.The person the emperor met in his last waking moment was the crown prince. He told Wei Ming many things, first state affairs, then family affairs.

Wei Su said that he spent his whole life in constant conquests and exhausted the national strength, but he took back all the lost land in northern Xinjiang and opened up Lingzhou, which finally lived up to the legacy of Emperor Taizu.Right now, the frontiers are initially settled, and the national treasury is empty, so we have to recuperate to gradually restore our national strength.After Wei Ming ascended the throne, stability should be the main priority, and the loss of land in the southern border should be ignored for the time being. If you can secure Youzhou and Lingzhou with peace of mind, you will have infinite merit.

With tears in his eyes, Wei Ming responded one by one.In fact, even if Wei Su didn't say anything, he would do the same.Wei Su's explanation of many matters in the harem was very simple. He believed that with Wei Ming's mind and spirit, he would take good care of his younger brothers.

On the 52th of the first month of the 24nd year of Yongjia, Wei Su, the tenth emperor of the Dayan Dynasty, died at the age of 68.

On the 25th day of the first lunar month, the edict of Emperor Daxing was announced to the world, and the Lingyuanyi Hall was stopped.

On the 26th of the first lunar month, Prince Weiming ascended the throne as emperor, and the following year was the first year of Tai'an.

On the 28th of the first lunar month, the new emperor gave the Daxing emperor the posthumous title "Chun" and the temple name Xingzu, not Zhongzong as Wei Chongrong remembered.

In ancient times, the ancestors had meritorious deeds and the ancestors were virtuous. Those who are called ancestors will not have their temples destroyed.In the previous life, Wei Su did not take back Youzhou until his death. Compared with the previous emperors, Wei Su's achievements were not superior, so he could not be called "ancestor", but only "zong".In this life, Wei Zhao took back Youzhou and opened up Lingzhou. Wei Su has made achievements in opening up territories, and it is only logical that he be respected as "ancestor".

The author has something to say:
