When we woke up for the second time, Emperor Jing and I were covered with a quilt, and the sky was dim.

Emperor Jing picked up a corner of the thin quilt, and looked at the bird and animal patterns on the edge, a little dazed.

The eunuch said happily, "Your Majesty, I got the news half an hour ago that King Liang has been found. He is safe and has not suffered any injuries. It turns out that during the time His Highness King Liang disappeared, he went to the hall. Yihou Mansion, with Princess Guantao."

"Found it?" I helped Emperor Jing stand up, he was leaning on the railing of the steps, still a little dizzy, "Why didn't you tell me if you found it?"

The eunuch bowed and said: "The emperor forgives the crime, it is the order of the queen mother. The queen mother came out this morning and saw you and His Royal Highness waiting in the hall all night. She was deeply moved and ordered to send her the quilt of the old man's bedroom, and don't make any noise. wake you up."

Deeply moved?Empress Dowager Dou was probably moved after receiving the news from King Liang. If there was still no news from King Liang, Emperor Jing was suffering from cold, so Empress Dowager Dou might not be moved.

But sometimes the problem is too deep, but it makes me feel uncomfortable.

Emperor Jing obviously knew this well, and he said happily: "It's good to come back. Where is King Liang now?"

"His Royal Highness King Liang is accompanied by the eldest princess, and went to Weiyang Palace to plead guilty. There is still about half an hour's journey. The Queen Mother has already gone to Weiyang Palace to wait."

Emperor Jing was about to take me back to Weiyang Palace, when Queen Wang's maid Wanxiang led a group of maids, holding trays of jade pendants, and came over: "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, the Queen has learned that you are resting in the Changqiu Palace, and ordered me to take a rest." Wait for the clothes to be delivered."

Emperor Jing smiled.

The two of them washed their hands and went out of the hall together. They saw Han Yue and a group of officials waiting on the porch.

I slowed down and fell behind Emperor Jing.

"His Royal Highness." Han said and others bowed to salute.

"You guys waited all night in Changqiu Palace? Did you rest last night?" I actually forgot to tell them to go back.

Scanning these young faces, Han said, Sang Hongyang, Zhang Ou, Li Danghu, Guo Sheren.They are dressed in loose clothes and curly trains, respectful but not concealing their respective natures.Some are my former companions, and some are descendants of ministers.

They are still young, and their positions in the prince's officials are not too high, so I can bring them with me.Those who are older, I have to respect and respect them.

Sang Hongyang took the lead and replied: "Your Highness, we took turns to rest."

The sun had just risen from the mansion hall to the east of Changle Palace, and the orange light illuminated them all in high spirits. I patted Sang Hongyang on the shoulder approvingly, and they all walked down the steps to catch up with Emperor Jing.

Seeing them, I feel even more ridiculous what I said yesterday.

After seeing too much joy, sorrow, ups and downs in Weiyang Palace, I gradually began to understand that in this palace, the most terrifying thing is not to be mediocre for a lifetime, but to be held high and fall heavily.

What to say is not a prince.If I was deprived of being a prince once, then I am nothing.

The best ending is to be kicked out of the uterus in despair, and sit and eat in the fief for the rest of her life waiting to die.

And this group of teenagers gathered around me will also have a worrying future because they were on the wrong team.

A recent example is Zhou Yafu.He was rejected because he tried to unite with other ministers to prevent Emperor Jing from abolishing Liu Rong.After Emperor Jing revealed his intention to establish me or Liu Zhi as the new prince, he contradicted Emperor Jing and said a few unpleasant sarcastic remarks when Liu Zhi and I disappeared.

He may just be straightforward and ignorant of human feelings, but various factors have caused this little old man who is an expert and a minister to be an outsider, from a general who said what he said, to a prime minister Zhou who said what is wrong now.

Therefore, whether it is for me, for them, for Emperor Jing, or for the wish that Liu Zhi and I have had since we were young to destroy the Xiongnu with our own hands, I have to be the prince well.

Emperor Jing and I got into our respective carriages.

Arriving at the front hall of Weiyang Palace, Empress Dowager Dou was already leaning on a wooden stick, waiting eagerly at the gate of the hall.

"Mother." Emperor Jing stepped forward.

"Grandma." I followed behind him to greet Queen Mother Dou.

"Oh, what are you doing, emperor and prince, get up quickly." Queen Dowager Dou lowered her eyes, with a happy smile on her face.She put aside the serving maid and groped her way forward, trying to help Emperor Jing up.

It seemed that the old woman who wished she would never see Emperor Jing again last night was someone else.

Emperor Jing hurriedly stood up and helped Empress Dowager Dou.

I am on the other side of Queen Dowager Dou.

Empress Dowager Dou caressed Emperor Jing's face: "Liu Qi, it's the old mother who blamed you. I saw you and Yue'er guarding me all night last night, so don't freeze."

I saw Emperor Jing smiled indifferently and said: "It's okay, mother, I'm in good health. Besides, Ah Wu is my younger brother, so I'm worried too."

Empress Dowager Dou's face darkened slightly, and she was about to say something when Duanmen ordered her to walk up hundreds of steps and reported: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, His Royal Highness, Prince Liang has already passed Sima Gate and is heading for Duanmen.

Emperor Jing interrupted Empress Dowager Dou's unspoken words: "Mother, let's go down and pick up Ah Wu."

After walking up more than 40 steps, Liang Wang really came in through the Duanmen with his upper body naked and a bundle of thorns on his back.Princess Guantao was by her side.When she saw us, she immediately raised her voice with a smile and said, "Mother, second brother, I brought the third child."

Liang Wang suddenly felt ashamed in front of the two, and he quickly knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, I have come to apologize to you."

Emperor Jing hurriedly handed Empress Dowager Dou to me, and quickly helped him up.

"Mother, second brother, don't blame the third child," Princess Guantao slapped King Liang with a smile, "He really knew he was wrong, and he hid in my mansion because he was afraid that you would not forgive him. Such a big man, like a child."

Emperor Jing sized up King Liang carefully, and said with a smile, "As long as Ah Wu is safe and sound, I wouldn't blame him."

The reunion of the three mothers and their children, coupled with the gag by Princess Guantao, made the whole family abandon their previous suspicions and enjoy themselves happily, dissolving the solemn atmosphere created by the majestic front hall into a harmonious atmosphere.

The vast Weiyang Palace stands quietly in the rising sun.The shadows of the five people are mixed together without distinction.

The one who is really happy is probably only Liang Wang who thinks he has been forgiven.In Emperor Jing's eyes, there was nothing but deep tiredness.

Ah Zhu and I have had some conflicts recently, but it shouldn't be like this, I thought with a little trepidation.

The king of Liang came tremblingly, and finally he was relieved when he returned.He put on the feudal king's clothes, sat leisurely in the carriage on the way back, and chatted with me.

He said how many stone bows he could draw at my age, how to practice swordsmanship, what kind of horse is a good horse, and what kind of romantic and famous men he recruited in Liang Guo.I listened with gusto.

After leaving the outskirts of the city, the carriage stopped.

I poured two glasses of wine and handed one to King Liang.

"Uncle Liang Wang, you have only been here for two days this time, and you are about to say goodbye. We will see you again in October next time." I was reluctant to part.

Emperor Jing told me that no matter what happens between him and King Liang, King Liang is still my third uncle, and I still have to treat him as my nephew.Besides, I really like this Uncle Liang Wang very much.He is sincere, brave, and a general-like figure.Which teenager does not admire such a person.

If he and Emperor Jing are brothers of ordinary people, he has done nothing wrong, this is just a small conflict.It's a pity that in the royal family, his innocence was intensified to hurt people like a blunt knife.

Liang Wang took the lacquer cup and said with a smile: "I am ashamed, Uncle Wang, I have always wanted to be some kind of heir, and I have done a lot of wrong things for it. But these two days when I learned that you are already the prince, I felt relieved Quite a lot. I am really not suitable for this kind of thing."

I smiled and watched him.

He touched my face: "This little face is finally round again. When you just came back from the snow last time, your face was sharp, and it hurt me to see it. You will be a prince in the future, so you must protect yourself. Don't go missing again."

I smiled and nodded: "By the way, Uncle Liang Wang, I heard that you built an Dongyuan with a radius of three hundred miles. The inside is resplendent and magnificent, full of rare animals, precious flowers and plants. Is it true? Ah Shi and I can go there Play."

"Okay," Liang Wang said with a smile, "When will you come, Uncle Wang will open the door to welcome you." The two drank the wine.

"It's a pity that we can't do it now. When there is a chance, Ah Shi and I will definitely look for you together."

I got up and went down the steps, and waved goodbye to King Liang.Then he got into his carriage and took all the princes and officials back to the palace.
