Daiyu of the Red Chamber raised a cat

Everyone knows that the sage governs the country well, and his merits are immeasurable. God sent a series of blessings, and the courtiers congratulated him.The multicolored stone that floated out of the lotus pond in the imperial garden was about to be held on top of the imperial case by the palace servants.As for the vague handwriting, I asked many old scholars and old doctors who specialize in ancient Chinese to see what the word is. Everyone said everything, some said it was long live, some said it was God's blessing, and some said it was a praising of today's prosperity. German.There is also a folk saying that unicorns give birth to children, and the faint handwriting says that many children are blessed.

These words spread from the court to the harem, and then to the people, and naturally reached the ears of the Supreme Emperor.

Auspiciousness from the sky often indicates that the monarch is virtuous, governs the country well, and has immeasurable merits. Naturally, it is a good thing. The Supreme Emperor is also happy, so he, the Queen Mother and several concubines held a banquet in the harem to celebrate.Send someone to invite the emperor and Prince Jing, intending to have fun with the father and son.On that day, Li Zhao and Li Xu went to the Taishang Palace to have a banquet together, and presented several auspicious things one by one.

The crowd was watching a play and drinking, and Li Xu was amused by the side. The Supreme Emperor was in high spirits. When the drink was full of joy, the Supreme Emperor took Li Zhao's hand and praised Li Zhao a few words, and warned him not to slack off, and to keep the people in his heart at all times. and so on.

Seeing that the emotional preparation was almost done, Li Zhao took Zhou Hang to meet the Supreme Emperor first, looking for an opportunity.

When Zhou Hong ran away with Liujia's anger, although Li Zhao tried his best to cover it up, the Supreme Emperor finally found out.Because it was a matter of family ugliness, no one would look good if they made a fuss, so later the Supreme Emperor acquiesced that Li Zhao suppressed the matter.Li Zhao pretended to be indifferent to the outside world, and at the same time sent people to look for his wife's whereabouts.But two months later, there is still no news.For two months, Li Zhao stayed behind closed doors and did not even go to court due to his illness. His whole life has changed a lot.

Seeing the day of childbirth, there must be an understanding of this matter after all.Later, the Supreme Emperor forced Li Zhao to act in the palace, saying that the princess had dystocia during childbirth, and she died twice.This is to erase Zhou Hong and the child in her belly from the jade document, even if they come back later, they will not recognize it.

Li Zhao insisted on not obeying, and was imprisoned for seven days by the current emperor and the former emperor.

Li Zhao was also stubborn, and he was dying when he came out without eating or drinking for seven days. Fortunately, Li Xu found a miracle doctor and hung him with ginseng, and took a few more medicines before he gradually got better.From then on, the Supreme Emperor paid less and less attention to Li Zhao, feeling that his love for his children was useless.It is also because of this that the Li Zhao brothers escaped the bloody battle for the heir apparent, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

More than ten years have passed since the incident, and the anger from that year is long gone. When the Supreme Emperor heard that the child was found, he didn't just frowned and asked, "Are you sure it's your blood?" He cared more about whether the child was If it's not his own grandson, the blood of the royal family cannot be tarnished in the slightest.

Li Zhao bowed and said, "It's absolutely true, otherwise, I wouldn't dare to bring it in front of the Supreme Emperor."

The Supreme Emperor was sitting on the throne, squinting his eyes for self-cultivation. Hearing the words, he said lightly, "In that case, let that child come in. I'll see and talk."

Li Zhao hurriedly went out to call Zhou Hang, and asked him to kneel down and kowtow to the Supreme Emperor.Before Zhou Hang entered the palace, Li Zhao had taken Wei Xing'an, his personal servant, to teach him etiquette, especially what to do when meeting the Supreme Emperor.Although Zhou Hang felt awkward at this moment, the set of kneeling and worshiping rituals was flowing in reverse, elegant and dignified.

The Supreme Emperor didn't shout, but asked Zhou Hang to lift it up to take a closer look at his appearance.

Taking a closer look, the Supreme Emperor was greatly surprised.Secretly thought, this kid looks too much like the emperor Tai*zu, he was carved out of the same mold.Although the Taishanghuang met the Taizu Emperor when he was young, the Taizu Emperor at that time was already over sixty years old, so he was different from the young ones.Most of the portraits of Emperor Tai*zu collected in the court are freehand brushwork. Like the portraits of emperors of all dynasties, they all have big faces, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, sparse beards, white and smooth faces, wearing dragon robes, correct facial features, and dignified looks.

But in the secret room of the Taiji Hall, there is a realistic portrait of Tai*zu. It is painted in Western style, with thick ink and heavy colors.

In this painting, the emperor Tai*zu has just reached the weak crown, and he is galloping away with his horse and whip, full of heroism and majesty.He is a little more mature than the child in front of him. I think this child will have the demeanor of the emperor Tai*zu in a few years.

In addition, with a nose and chin that resembled Li Zhao eight or nine times, straight brows that flew obliquely like himself, and deep eye sockets, the Supreme Emperor had already confirmed that Zhou Hang must belong to their Li family.He thought, if it was really a child of the royal family, there would be no reason for him to live outside.

Li Zhao asked Zhou Hang to show the heirloom jade pendant around his neck to the Supreme Emperor, saying that it was worn by Zhou Hong every day back then, and it was unmistakable.The royal family has strict rules and regulations, which are different from ordinary people. Even if the son is not very favored, he can meet the emperor a few times every time, let alone a daughter-in-law?Therefore, it is impossible for the Supreme Emperor to know what Zhou Hong often wears.But this matter is not difficult to find out, the empress dowagers and concubines have always paid attention to this aspect, just ask them and you will know everything.

Therefore, the Supreme Emperor sent someone to call the Queen Mother and the concubines.

Although he also felt that Zhou Hang was his grandson in his heart, there was no harm in confirming more.

Not long after, the queen mother came with three or four concubines.The Supreme Emperor ordered Li Zhao and Zhou Hang to stay in the inner room. He wanted Zhou Hang to remove the jade pendant from his body, and let the servants carry it outside to show to the ladies outside.

Zhou Hang refuses to live and die, nonsense, the space between her and sister Lin has been hidden in the past few years, so he doesn't want to take the risk of handing it over to others!

Li Zhao's persuasion was useless, and the order to die was useless. Zhou Hang had his own reasons, saying that it was Zhou Hong's order, and he was not allowed to leave his body for a moment while Yu was around.When he mentioned Zhou Hong, Li Zhao couldn't bear to say anything else. Seeing that he was filial, the Supreme Emperor didn't make things difficult for him, so he took Zhou Hang to show the concubines together.

The Queen Mother first saw the Supreme Emperor leading a young offspring, and said with a smile: "The Supreme Emperor, whose family's child is this, why does it hurt?" Zhou Hang's appearance was so recognizable that he looked like a member of the royal family at first glance.But it wasn't the prince, she had seen all the princes in the palace, so the queen mother guessed which prince or son of the clan he might be.Seeing that the Taishang Emperor was very fond of the child, she also asked with a smile.

The Supreme Emperor smiled and said, "Don't ask which one? Here's something you can take a look at, do you recognize it or not?"

When everyone saw it, they all felt familiar, and they all said that they had seen it but it had been too long, and they couldn't remember it for a while.After a while, an old concubine suddenly asked, "Isn't this the jade pendant worn by Princess Chu every day? Where did the Supreme Emperor get it?"

As expected, the Supreme Emperor smiled and nodded without explaining, and dismissed all the women.

Once the Taishanghuang is settled, things will be simple.

In the end, the handwriting on the Qilin colored stone was deciphered by an old Taoist priest Cui Zhenren of Xuanzhen Temple. Everyone said that he was a living god with profound morals and great prestige among the dignitaries in Beijing.Cui Zhenren gave an authoritative statement, saying that there were four characters written on the colored stone, which read: God bless Lin'er.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion among the courtiers, saying that since the colored stone appeared in the palace, it must be the prince.Lenovo a few months ago revealed the idea of ​​establishing a prince, and the ministers said that these four words must be on the future prince.Even an adult prince secretly intensified his tactics of fighting openly and secretly. Even the third prince who was underage, his mother Concubine Liu Gui also brought a book to her natal family in private. After two days of carrying it, her natal sister-in-law handed a sign and entered the palace to beg.

The development of the matter was beyond everyone's expectations. At the Great Court Meeting on the 16th, Li Zhao told a story to the officials.The general meaning is that the Empress Yuan did not die with one dead body and two lives, but was assassinated in the hidden mansion that day. The Empress Yuan was frightened, had a dystocia, and died of bleeding after giving birth to her son.The little prince was very weak due to dystocia, so he asked a master to tell a fortune teller that he might not be able to bear the wealth of the heavenly family, so he had to be sent to an ordinary family to be raised, and this child had a catastrophe at the age of 16, and he had to pass the catastrophe before he could bear it. It went well, so it's okay to replay it at the age of [-].

Li Zhaogang lost his concubine, and he didn't dare to joke about his son's life, so he had to do so.
