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

Ji Heng didn't feel like eating or drinking these days, the emperor felt that he was too tired, so he asked him to take a good rest for a few days.

Ji Heng thought for a while, and felt that there was nothing to worry about the emperor for a while, and it was okay to rest for a few days by himself, so Ji Heng thought about spending a few days with his parents.

It was already June weather at this time, even though Henglan Palace was much cooler than in the capital, but, after all, the weather was hot, and it was only slightly better than in the capital.

The imperial court has long implemented the daylight saving schedule, and the court is very early in the morning, so that the next court will be earlier.

Ji Heng wanted to rest. He didn't come to court today, and the emperor ordered him to go down early. He didn't go to the study room in the back hall first, but came to Jiayu Building in Yutang Garden.

Not long after the sun had risen, the emperor was sweating all the way from Yuheng Hall to Jiayu Tower by himself.

When they arrived at the downstairs of Jiayu Building, the guards saw the emperor coming, and quickly knelt down to salute. The emperor asked the female official, "Where are the queen and your highnesses?"

The female officer replied respectfully, "Go back to the emperor, the empress and your highness are still upstairs."

The emperor nodded, and walked upstairs while shaking his fan.

After Ji Heng gave birth to the third prince, his body became a little weak. Even though he was taking care of himself all the time, Ji Heng was busy with political affairs, and when he was not busy with political affairs, he was also concerned about the country and the people. How good, in winter, he is afraid of cold, and in summer, he is afraid of heat. Dry heat is fine, but he is most afraid of damp heat. This time, the heat is very humid, and he has blisters on his arms. He drank the medicine prescribed by the imperial doctor It's getting better.

Moreover, if there is an iceberg in the room where he sleeps, after he sleeps for a long time, the joints of his body will become sore, and sometimes his waist will become sore. Although Ji Heng can bear the pain in his body, he is also afraid that this is a sign that his life will not last long. He was not afraid of death, but he felt that he still had a lot of things to do, so he couldn't die early, and if something happened to him, he didn't know whether the emperor would go crazy, so he still felt that he should take good care of his body.

Because of this, Ji Heng moved from Lanzhi Tower to Jiayu Tower and slept on the third floor. Although it is not much cooler than Lanzhi Tower during the day, if there is a night breeze at night, it will be true. Cool too much.

The emperor went up to the second floor, and the palace servants saluted him at the stairs, and said that the empress was at the railing with her highness.

The emperor walked over, and Ji Heng was saying to Yang Qi'er, "The weather is hot now, Song Taifu won't come to teach you, but you can't waste your studies, and you can't miss the big characters that should be painted in red every day."

Yang Qi'er obediently said, "Father, I know. But, can't I finish writing at noon, I want to go fishing with you now."

But Ji Heng said, "Don't give up halfway when doing things. Only when the things that should be done are done can we go to play."

Yang Qi'er looked at Ji Heng and begged eagerly, "But after I finish writing, Father, you will stop fishing."

Ji Heng nodded, "Yes."

Next to him, Yang Xiner hugged Ji Heng's leg. Ji Heng sat on a chair, hugged his son in his arms, took a fan and fanned him, and then said to Yang Qier, who was in pain, "Okay, then let's go fishing, but after fishing Come back, you must not forget to write."

Yang Qi'er seemed to be pardoned, smiled and lay down on Ji Heng's lap, grabbed his younger brother and kissed him on the face, kissed Yang Xin'er so hard that he frowned, and then raised his hand to touch his face.

The emperor looked at the three of them inside, with a smile on his face. Because the light in the room was dark, the father and son didn't notice the emperor's arrival. It was Yang Qier who turned around and ran into the house before seeing the emperor, so he cheered, "Father!" Your Majesty, here you come."

A while ago, Ji Heng corrected Yang Qi'er to call him the emperor's father, at least in public, so Yang Qi'er called him father from time to time, most of the time he still called him daddy.

The emperor said, "Yes, I also heard that you said you were going fishing."

Yang Qi'er smiled and said, "Yes, father said to take me to go fishing. Father, are you done with your business? If you are done, come with us."

"That's right," said the emperor.

So after the palace people prepared the fishing rods and baits, the family went to Jingming Lake.

At this time, the sun was still not strong, and the green willows formed a thick shade by the Jingming Lake, and there happened to be a lake breeze, but it was still cool.

The emperor hugged Yang Xin'er, Ji Heng was already a good fisherman, and Yang Qi'er became Luo Luo, his follower, who diligently took this and that for Ji Heng, and didn't need the palace servants to wait on him.

Ji Heng taught Yang Qi'er how to fish by hand, while the emperor held his quiet young son and smiled while watching his daughter-in-law pack the fishing rods for him. Ji Heng cast the fishing rods in several places, and ordered Yang Qi'er to come over and say to the emperor, "Daddy, Father said to let you Keep these two fishing rods safe with my brother."

He spoke seriously, his white and tender face was blushing with excitement, the emperor wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel, and said, "I know."

Yang Qi'er came over to kiss his younger brother again, and before Yang Xiner was about to lose his temper, he ran to Ji Heng.

Fishing is a rare activity that the family of four likes. Yang Qier likes to watch the moment when the fish is caught. Even the sleepy Wang Yang Xiner can stare at the fishing rod without moving. If the float is pulled, he can still pull him. Daddy's arm shook him reminding him.

Ji Heng brought the stool to the emperor's side, sat down and talked to him in a low voice, while Yang Qi'er looked at this pole and then that pole from time to time, enjoying himself, guarding from a distance with guards and palace people watching Here, I'm afraid that Ji Heng and the emperor didn't notice Yang Qier's accident for a while.

Ji Heng then said, "Qin Xian, my parents went to Xishan to escape the summer heat, and I thought I would bring my two children to live there for a few days, firstly to escape the summer heat, and secondly to accompany them. I just want you to stay here alone."

The emperor didn't object, and said, "I see that you are really afraid of the heat, and you are very tired recently, and you can't eat anything. Let's just go to the palace to escape the heat. There is nothing important recently. Take a rest for a few days and go to court early. If you have something to do, hurry up." To report to Xishan, that’s it. Besides, the Xishan Palace has been packed before, just go live, and just bring the father-in-law and mother-in-law to live together. When the children go there, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the birds are singing and the insects are singing, and they will like it too. "

Ji Heng nodded, "Okay, let's set a date and let's go."

The emperor said, "There is no need to set a date, just go for a few days."

Ji Heng said, "It takes a few days to get ready, and besides, the emperor has to tell the courtiers."

In this way, the date was finally set to ten days later.

The two were still talking, and Yang Qier was going to pull the fishing rod by herself. Yang Xiner kept looking at his brother, and quickly reached out to pull the emperor's sleeve. The emperor and Ji Heng both looked at him, and he pointed at Yang Qier again.

Ji Heng stood up and saw that Yang Qi'er was going to pull up a fishing rod. He was small and weak, so he couldn't do it, so he smiled and went to help. There were already a lot of fish in Jingming Lake, so naturally he could catch them soon.

But this one was very small. After Ji Heng pulled it up, he showed it to his two sons, and then asked Yang Qier to put the fish back into the lake by himself, and taught the children, "The fish is too small, you have to put it in the lake." Put it back and let it grow up. In this way, the fish will have the opportunity to grow and will not be caught. The same should be done for the people. We must give them the opportunity to recuperate and grow well. We cannot just exploit the people, otherwise the people will be poor and the country will suffer. It is weak. The so-called wealth is hidden in the people, and the people are rich, which is the wealth of the country.”

Yang Qi'er has studied knowledge with Song Taifu for more than half a year, and he can understand Ji Heng's words ignorantly, but Ji Heng washes Yang Qi'er's hands with the water in the bucket, and then asks him, "Does Qi'er understand?"

Yang Qi'er then said, "I know, we have to wait for the fish to grow up before catching them."

Ji Heng wiped his hands with a towel, kissed his forehead, and went with him to load the bait and set the fishing rod.

It didn't take long for Ji Heng to catch five or six fish, and none of them were small, and all the small ones were put back into the lake.

Yang Xin'er also climbed down from her father, and like her brother, was poking around beside the big wooden bucket containing fish.

After fishing for about an hour, and the sun was getting high, the family of four invited palace servants to pack their things, and took the fish back for lunch.

Therefore, on the lunch table at noon, there are fish balls, fish porridge, fish soup, fried fish steaks and so on.

The fish in Jingming Lake are not as precious as those supplied to the royal family, but they are freshly caught and cooked, and the taste is also very good.

Even Ji Heng ate an extra bowl of fish porridge. Yang Xiner also loved the fish balls that Ji Heng gave him for 10 minutes, but he didn't dare to let him eat more. Yang Qier liked fried fish steaks, and not long ago Ji Heng made grilled fish himself, and he still couldn't forget it, and he was still saying, "Father, I still want to eat the grilled fish last time."

Ji Heng blew cold fish soup for Yang Xiner to drink, then he replied to Yang Qier, "You and your brother are still young, eating too much grilled fish is not good for your health. I'll make it after a while."

The emperor said, "You are not in good health recently, what are you doing all these things?"

Ji Heng said, "It's not tiring, it's just that the whole family can grill a fish together, it's good, isn't it?"

The emperor laughed and said, "Then go to the Xishan Palace to grill fish, where there are cold-water fish from the mountains."

Ji Heng said, "Very good."

Yang Qi'er happily asked, "When are you going to the Xishan Palace?"

Seeing his happy look, Ji Heng said, "Wait until you finish writing that book."

After wilting for a while, Yang Qi'er became happy again, "I can finish writing soon."

While wiping his youngest son's mouth, Ji Heng teased, "You don't talk when you eat, you don't talk when you sleep, our family discusses food, isn't it just a grilled fish, if someone hears it, I'm afraid you have to say that you don't have a royal style."

The emperor smiled and said, "The queen's grilled fish is the only one in the world. Talking about this is the royal style."

Yang Qi'er quickly nodded in agreement, and even Yang Xin'er looked up at Ji Heng, pursed his lips and laughed, Ji Heng shook his head and sighed, "You all laugh at me like your father."

The emperor took the empress and the crown prince and the third prince to the Xishan Palace to escape the summer heat. On the second day, the empress's mother, Mrs. Xu, and Mr. Lao Ji were brought over.

Seeing Yang Qier and Yang Xiner, Mrs. Xu and Old Ji were overjoyed. Mrs. Xu asked the children this and that, played with them, and even ignored Ji Heng, while Mrs. Ji sat by and watched, for He, who had practiced the ability to hide his emotions and anger for many years, now had a smile on his face. After Yang Xin'er called him grandpa, he was so happy that he stuttered.

Yang Xin'er looks more and more like Ji Heng, but her personality seems to be colder than Ji Heng's, but she is not as rigorous as Ji Heng. She is only two years old now, and she is just lazy.

Maybe because he didn't watch Ji Heng grow up, old Master Ji was very persistent in trying to make up for Yang Xin'er, so when he was facing him, he was able to soften his voice ten times.

Ji Heng was playing chess with the emperor, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Ji looked after the children, the wind was blowing outside, the room was very cool, the whole family stayed together, and they didn't even ask the palace servants to wait on them.

The emperor looked up at the situation in the room when he was thinking about the chess strategy, and couldn't help but feel very comfortable and happy in his heart. This is the feeling of home.

The emperor knew how rare these were for an emperor. When Ji Heng was thinking about how to play chess, he suddenly asked Mr. Ji, who taught Yang Xiner how to stack blocks with a gentle voice, "Ji Aiqing, brother Ying is also 13 years old." Bar."

Old Master Ji was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Go back to the emperor, that's right."

The emperor took a look at Ji Heng and said, "During the Dragon Boat Festival last time, he didn't come to the palace because he was ill. How is he doing recently? I heard that he is very knowledgeable. He has been admitted as a scholar, and he is also the first in the same period. And the youngest. Aiqing is going to cultivate another number one scholar for me."

Master Lao Ji said respectfully, "Thank you, the emperor, for thinking about the praise, and he should not praise it. It would be good if he can be admitted to Jinshi in the future. How can ordinary people be admitted to the number one scholar. However, I only hope that he can be upright and self-sufficient. Just humiliate the family."

Although Brother Ying is a concubine, but the only son of Mrs. Ji was captured by the emperor to become the queen, Brother Ying became the only male in Ji's mansion, so he is naturally very valued.

For this reason, the emperor also looked at brother Ying differently. Besides, this is his brother-in-law, so he naturally cared about it.

Ji Heng also has a good relationship with his younger brother, but they don't often call him to the palace. One is because he is afraid that he will develop an air of arrogance and think that he is a relative of the emperor; Strict, especially for study, there are only a few days off throughout the year, and you have to study at other times. Ji Heng called him to the palace, which delayed his study, and he was afraid that he would no longer be interested in studying when he became playful.The number of times Brother Ying has been summoned to the palace cannot be counted on one hand.

The emperor said, "It is also good to send him to the palace to meet his brother."

Ji Heng said softly to the emperor, "Let's pass it on in a few days."

The emperor began to think again, and Old Master Ji said, "Don't dare to let him have the idea of ​​relying on shade, a man should be able to make his own life. The emperor's love for him, the old minister and Heng'er both accepted it, but Don't dare let him know."

The emperor raised his hand and said, "This is the courage of a scholarly family that can truly stand tall, but I have seen it in a short time."

Ji Heng said, "Your Majesty, we don't mean that, don't make my father panic by belittling yourself."

The emperor touched his hand with a smile, and Master Ji also said, "It's the emperor's great love for the courtier's family. The emperor is a sage king. He has a long-term vision, and the word short-sightedness makes the courtiers panic."

The emperor said, "Don't be so cautious as a family. If there is a saying, you can't avoid relatives. Brother Ying is promising, and I will use it again."

Ji Heng said, "He's still young, well, Your Majesty, it's your turn again."

A few days later, Brother Ying was summoned by the emperor and came to the Xishan Palace.

A 13-year-old boy is as tender as a flower. However, he has been strictly educated by his father and brother since he was a child, and he has an excellent brother in front of him as a benchmark. He was as meticulous and uncompromising as Ji Heng was back then.

Especially in front of the emperor, his every move is similar to that of a most respectful veteran.

In the Qingfeng Pavilion, Ji Heng met him alone, and Brother Ying relaxed a little, and greeted Ji Heng, "Greetings to brother."

Ji Heng smiled and said, "Come and sit next to me, how can you be so polite."

Brother Ying also laughed, and happily sat next to him. Ji Heng looked him up, "I haven't seen him in a few months, and he seems to have grown taller."

In fact, Brother Ying is still childish. Even though he answered very politely, his eyes are very bright and bright. He is obviously proud of it. "It seems that I have grown taller. I always felt a little short when I wore the trousers before."

Ji Heng stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Although Ji's mansion is only counting on you now, father disciplines you strictly, and you have a heavy burden on you, but you should also pay attention to your body."

Brother Ying smiled and replied, "Thank you brother for your concern."

Ji Heng asked again, "Have you made any friends recently?"

Brother Ying said, "Father allowed me to attend two literary conferences this year, and I met some people. If you want to say friends, I'm not particularly happy."

Ji Heng looked at him with a smile, "You are very cautious about making friends."

"Those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black. This statement is very reasonable. Therefore, I feel that I can't make friends casually." Brother Ying was slightly embarrassed by Ji Heng's words.

Ji Heng said, "You're right. True friends are hard to come by, but if you really have someone worth making friends with, you should make friends with your heart."

Brother Ying nodded quickly, looked at Ji Heng with a slight twinkle in his eyes, and said, "Brother seems to have lost a lot of energy, is there something you are not happy about recently?"

Ji Heng was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's been pretty good recently, it's just that it's hot and I can't eat much, so I lost some weight."

Brother Ying said, "It's good that brother can feel happy."

Hearing what he said, Ji Heng understood his thoughts.

Thinking that before Ji Heng, he was also a famous minister who did practical things and committed himself to the emperor's harem. Although the officials in the court dared not object because of the power of the emperor, or it would be useless if he objected, he took the position of queen, but he In fact, his reputation among scholars has been greatly affected.

Brother Ying went to participate in the literature meeting, there were so many scholars in it, or young masters from powerful families, or talented scholars from all over the world, there would always be someone who could catch Brother Ying's eyes, but Brother Ying said that no one would win, so it can be seen He was angry with other scholars, and as Xiaoguo's uncle, he could only be angry with his queen.

Ji Heng really didn't want to say anything to his younger brother on this matter, he just said, "A man is born in the world, he should make a career, and he should live up to this world. However, being upright is not afraid of shadows. Xie, it’s fine if you have a clear conscience. If you live blindly for the eyes of others, what’s the point of that.”

Brother Ying nodded yes, in his eyes, there is no one better than his elder brother in the world, no matter whether it is appearance, knowledge, heart and bearing, he doesn't think there is one.Such a person, he felt unworthy of being slandered.

Brother Ying excitedly talked about the third prince again, "His Highness the third prince has grown up a lot, and he really looks like you, brother, as cute as a fairy boy."

Ji Heng said, "You're here, so it's good to take him to play with His Highness the Crown Prince, teach him to read two poems, and see if he is willing to read."

Yang Xin'er didn't like to talk very much, and the whole family was worried about it, but there was nothing they could do about him, after all, he was too young.
