The identity of the direct son - Xu I's prosperous world

The eunuch returned to the palace and told the emperor what Ji Heng meant. Of course he didn't dare to say what Ji Heng said directly, so he said it well, and found reasons such as Ji Heng was busy and tired, but the emperor understood the meaning immediately after hearing it. , that is, Ji Heng is unwilling to enter the palace.

He didn't get angry either, he just felt depressed.

And the son is not very helpful by the side, because Ji Heng is gone, Yang Qier is clinging to the emperor again, whatever the emperor does, he has to hold him, or let the female officer hold him where he can see him.

The emperor went to worship at dusk, and there was a small palace banquet in the palace at night, because he couldn't carry his son out of the Qilin hall, and he couldn't leave himself, the emperor just sat at the palace banquet for a quarter of an hour and left when no one was around. up.

And at this quarter of an hour, everyone just said congratulations to His Highness the Crown Prince for his recovery.

Regarding Yang Qier's poisoning, only a few people knew that the emperor let the public declare that Yang Qier's internal fire poison was too heavy, and he would be cured after taking medicine.

These days, investigating Yang Qier's poisoning, because Ji Heng persuaded the emperor to think about Yang Qier's sake, and not to kill, so as not to make Yang Qier bear too much blood debt.

So the emperor had to let the secret investigation.

The results of the secret investigation were actually not ideal.

The first is that it has been a long time and it is difficult to investigate. The second is that the poison is relatively easy to download, so it is difficult to investigate. The third is that after a period of clear investigation, there was no result at the time, and it will be difficult later.

Yang Qier remembered very well that Ji Heng wanted to come to sleep with her at night, so she didn't go to bed at night and kept making noises without seeing Ji Heng. Yang Qi'er was playing on the bed, and Yang Qi'er was tired from crying, so she lay down in the emperor's arms and fell asleep.

The emperor saw that he was asleep and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, as soon as he put down his son, Yang Qier would wake up. The emperor had no choice but to sleep with his son.

After another two days, Yang Qi'er never saw Ji Heng again, crying and crying, and accepted the reality, but even if he accepted the reality, it's not that he forgot about it, so he lost his spirit completely. good.

Ji Heng took Yang Qi'er to play, he could put him on his shoulders, he could gently throw him up, he could kiss him on his little neck and face to make him laugh, but others would not do this.

Yang Qi'er often walked to the gate of the palace to look outside, and then walked back in frustration.The sun shines on the curved corridor, and the pillars of the curved corridor form shadows. Yang Qier will quickly pass through the shadows every time, and always look up. The colorful paintings on the roof of the curved corridor are dazzling. He remembers that before, Father He would stand in front and stretch out his hand, waiting for him to pounce on him, then hug him up and lift him up high, so that he could see the painted painting more clearly.

The nannies and palace people who took care of him felt that the prince was so pitiful, and couldn't help but feel sorry for him, but the emperor was busy with everything, so naturally he couldn't tell him.

They only hoped that Ji Heng could enter the palace quickly.

Ji Heng sorted out the materials at home, and took the part for the emperor with him to the palace, but only sent it to the Qinzheng Hall.

The emperor received Ji Heng in the Hall of Qinzheng. After Ji Heng saluted, he respectfully presented all the books and materials. Some of these books were written by Ji Heng himself, not by Ji Heng. Ji Heng also made notes on them .

Looking at these materials, the emperor had to sympathize with Ji Heng's hard work. Ji Heng was good at painting and chess. Going around, where is the time to enjoy leisure?

Not to mention the elegant affairs of these literati, there is no time to drink and chat with colleagues. In the southeast for more than a year, Ji Heng almost never even participated in banquets for the reports of the four dead men and Fu Yang.

How could the emperor blame a person who devoted all his time and energy to the court affairs to himself for abandoning his son.

Among them are two books on the design of artillery and guns, factory building, classification of craftsmen, production process, post-experimentation, results, input and output, etc.; and two books on shipbuilding and various ship introductions; this is not Ji Heng. It was written, but it was the general outline drawn up by Ji Heng, and someone wrote it, so almost every page in it has his notes; there is also a book that is open to the management issues of the Municipal Shipping Department, what are the advantages and disadvantages of various methods, and how to use them People, how to supervise, how the court generally controls, etc., these are written by Ji Heng himself, and there is even a book about the scenery he saw on the southeast coast for more than a year, and even some novels from foreign countries. Things, he also has a record.In addition, we have collected and proofread the maps of the southeast coast. Many islands that were not marked before have been newly marked, named and numbered, and the specific conditions of each guard and sea village have also been done in detail. label.These should be done by Ji Heng's organization, and they were divided into several groups, so there are a lot of notes beside them, which are separated into pages.

In addition to these, there are other books collected by Ji Heng. These things are piled higher than the memorials. The emperor probably flipped through them, then raised his head to look at Ji Heng. Ji Heng was still standing there with his head bowed slightly.

The emperor couldn't help asking, "Has your hair fallen out badly recently?"

Ji Heng was wearing an official hat, and his hair was tucked inside. He was surprised why the emperor would ask this question. He couldn't help but slightly raised his head to look at the emperor, and then replied, "It's okay. Mother found a folk remedy to eat, which is good for hair care. It is beneficial, if the emperor wants to use it, I will ask my mother for the prescription and present it to the emperor. If it is about the withered and yellow hair of His Royal Highness, he is still young, so shave his hair several times for him, and the hair that grows back will be OK."

The emperor actually thought that Ji Heng's mind was constantly spinning all day long, and it would be better not to be bald like some ministers in the court in the future. He didn't expect Ji Heng to have such a big talk.

He asked Ji Heng to sit down, and said, "The weather is getting colder, it's not good to shave Qi'er's hair now, let's talk about it in the spring of next year."

Ji Heng didn't expect the emperor to be thinking about that, but the Xu family and Ji's father both have thick hair, so Ji Heng wouldn't be bald because of their inheritance.

Ji Heng responded, "What the emperor said is true. His Highness the Crown Prince must not be frozen. His body is already weak. If he catches the wind and cold again, it would be really bad. Don't let him play around too much. If he sweats, he must hurry up." Wipe it, otherwise it will be bad for your health."

The emperor said in his heart that you care so much, why can you be so hard-hearted and ignore him for a few days.

The emperor said, "I've seen these things in the past few days. Qi'er is in the Qilin Hall, so go and see him."

But Ji Heng said, "I don't agree with the etiquette when I always come to the Qilin Hall."

The emperor frowned and remained silent.

Ji Heng said again, "If the emperor has nothing else to do, I will retire."

The emperor said angrily, "Then you go."

Ji Heng really stood up, saluted and left.

In the next few days, Ji Heng did not go to the morning court, nor did he enter the palace to meet the saint. The emperor summoned Liu Shangze, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who received a free salary, to come to the palace to discuss matters.

Because Ji Heng went to the southeast to take charge of the war in the southeast, this Liu Shangshu was only in charge of the military pay and food, and other things, he just participated in the discussion and basically had no chance to make a decision, and he naturally did not dare to pay the soldiers Letting go of any problems, now that Ji Heng has returned to Beijing, many rights have been transferred to him a little bit, but where he dares to specialize, all of them will be discussed by the cabinet and reported to the emperor.

After finishing playing this time, the emperor asked again, "Will Ji Heng go back to the Yamen to handle business?"

Ji Heng's position as governor was only a temporary position, and after he returned to Beijing, he would still return to the Ministry of War, so the emperor asked Master Liu this way.

Master Liu said respectfully, "Master Xiao Ji applied for a leave of absence two days ago, and my minister approved it."

Ji Heng wants to ask for leave, Master Liu dare not refuse to approve.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and he didn't want to ask any more questions, but Lord Liu said again at this time, "The old minister's old wife has some contacts with Mrs. Lin's family. It is said that Mr. Xiao Ji went to Lin's mansion to propose marriage in person, so the old minister thought about it." This is a major marriage event for Mr. Xiao Ji, so the old minister has no choice but to ask him to leave, and ask the emperor to learn from him."

There is no need to learn more, the emperor was so angry that he couldn't breathe and passed out.

Lord Liu kept his head down, and he couldn't see that the emperor's face was completely dark. It took the emperor a long time to suppress the raging anger, and said in a peaceful voice, "I see, you go down."

Master Liu saluted and resigned. Although he is not considered old, Ji Heng has been using troops in the southeast for the past two years. He has become more and more aware that he should not make decisions about things, so he considers himself too old to move. Now Ji Heng has returned to Beijing. , his legs and feet were only a little nimbler, and when he felt the emperor's uncontrollable anger, he walked out of the study even more nimbly and quickly.

Things went back to a few days ago, Ji Heng took advantage of the imperial court's ten-day rest, and indeed went to the Lin Mansion with a gift in person.

There is no separated family in the Lin family, and several generations live together.

He first went to meet his teacher Lin Yi. Lin Yi was married and had two sons and a daughter. When Ji Heng arrived, he was received as a distinguished guest. Lin Yi came to pick him up at the door and led him to his study.

The two talked about the southeast war for a while, and Ji Heng knocked on General Lin Conglin, who was in the next room of the Lin family, and found that Lin Yi didn't know about Lin Xiang at all. It seemed that Lin Xiang followed Lin Cong's troops to the south, and Lin Cong didn't know , That's why I didn't tell my family.

Ji Heng came to visit Lin Yi in this way because Lin Yi was his martial arts master, and there was no reason not to come to visit him when he came back, but Ji Heng immediately proposed to visit Mrs. Lin's family in person.

Lin Yi couldn't help but feel surprised, and said, "Sister-in-law is at home, but..."

But Ji Heng said, "As a junior, Ji Heng should also visit the eldest wife, and this is mother's order, so I dare not disobey."

Although the Lin family is a family of military generals, due to their outstanding achievements over the years, the Lin family even rejected the emperor's title award, and has always been a hereditary military position. In fact, the Lin family is no worse than those old-fashioned princes' houses in Beijing recently. It is difficult for men to fight outside. The mansion is governed very well, which is why Lin Xiangyin said that she would never marry. Although the people in the mansion declared that they would protect her all their lives, Lin Xiang's mother, the eldest wife, was the most traditional, and privately forced her not to allow her. Buried in the ancestral grave.

Lin Yi asked someone to report to Mrs. Lin, and then asked someone to bring Ji Heng over.

Ji Heng came here with a lot of gifts, which had already been delivered to the inner house before, this time Mrs. Lin greeted him at the main entrance of the main courtyard, Ji Heng saluted him, "Ji Heng has met my wife, please greet my wife. "

Mrs. Lin welcomed him in happily, and said, "Since you are a nephew, why should you be so polite."

After exchanging pleasantries with Mrs. Lin for a while, Ji Heng signaled that he had something important to say to Mrs. Lin. Mrs. Lin understood, and let all the maids and women who were serving in the room go out. Then Ji Heng got up suddenly , Knelt down in front of Mrs. Lin.
