"I've seen the officials."
Song Renzong said softly: "Get up."
"Thank you, official." Chu Yue and the others stood up and said.
Song Renzong looked at Zhao Yang suspiciously, then at Chu Yue and the others, and asked, "What's going on?"
Zhao Yang didn't answer, but looked at Chu Yue.
Chu Yue instantly understood the meaning of His Highness the Crown Prince, took a step forward and said: "If you go back to the official's house, Yan Xiu and the others are plotting to rebel, and I will take them down immediately after I find out." The four of them on the ground, Yan Xiu, continued, "Officials, the four of them are the masterminds of this rebellion, and the rest of the rebels have also been taken down."
Hearing that all the rebels had been taken down, Song Renzong heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a surprised expression: "Okay, okay." After speaking, he asked in confusion, "What's going on?"
Song Renzong slept soundly, when he was suddenly informed of an accident in the palace, he was so frightened that he got up quickly, only to be told that there was a rebellion in the palace, which frightened him very much.Then, he heard the screams coming from outside the Funing Palace, which frightened him.Just when he thought he was going to have an accident, his son came to tell him that it was all right, and until now he didn't know what happened.
Chu Yue didn't answer in a hurry, but glanced at Zhao Yang.
Zhao Yang nodded lightly to Chu Yue, signaling him to continue reporting to Song Renzong.
"When I went back to the official's house, some time ago, Richen found out that Yan Xiu and the others were abnormal, so he reported the matter to His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness asked the minister to keep an eye on Yan Xiu and the other four to see what they were trying to do. " Chu Yue said these words, of course Zhao Yang ordered him to say so. "Chen and others have been secretly watching Yan Xiu and the others, but they have not made any moves. But the day before yesterday, Yan Xiu and others suddenly changed shifts with Chen and others, and chose to be on duty tonight, so that Chen and others can go home and rest. When I felt that this matter was a bit strange, I reported it to His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness asked the ministers to enter the palace quietly tonight and keep a close eye on Yan Xiu and the others."
When Song Renzong heard this, he turned his head and looked at his son standing beside him, his eyes were full of relief.
Chu Yue continued to report: "In the first half of the night, the ministers did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and kept staring at Yan Xiu and the others. Yan Xiu and the others did not make any moves, but after a while, Yan Xiu and the others began to kill and set fire in the palace. , I will immediately step forward to stop you." After speaking, he suddenly knelt on the ground, "The officials were shocked, and the officials are guilty, please forgive me."
Song Renzong stood up, walked up to Chu Yue and the others, and personally reached out to help them up.
"You did a good job and stopped the rebels in time."
Chu Yue and the others were praised by the officials, but they did not get carried away with complacency, but said respectfully: "The officials, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered the ministers to stop Yan Xiu and the others if they found out that Yan Xiu and the others were planning any wrongdoing. "
Song Renzong looked at his son and asked gently, "Yangyang, why didn't you tell your father about this?"
"Father, I don't know what Yan Xiu and the others are going to do. I can only let Chu Yue and the others keep an eye on Yan Xiu and the others first." Zhao Yang had already colluded with Chu Yue and the others, "Besides, if I tell you, don't Did you startle the snake?" After speaking, he frowned, and his expression became a little cold in an instant, "It's just that I didn't expect Yan Xiu and the others to rebel. If I knew it was like this, I would have told you, Dad."
Song Renzong reached out and hugged his son into his arms, touched his son's little face, and said lovingly: "Yangyang, you did a good job and saved Daddy." Knowing that it was his son who saved him, Song Renzong felt in his heart It is full of joy and pride.
Zhao Yang pouted and said, "Father was still frightened."
Seeing the regret and self-blame on his son's face, Song Renzong's heart softened: "Daddy is fine."
"Daddy, Chu Yue and the others did a great job in saving him, you should reward them well."
Chu Yue and the others became very excited when they heard His Highness the Crown Prince's words, but their faces were very calm.
"His Royal Highness, the duty of the ministers is to protect the official family, and the ministers dare not take credit for it."
"The crown prince is right, you have done a great job in saving him, and I will definitely reward you well."
Chu Yue and the others hurriedly knelt down to thank him: "Thank you to the official family, and thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Song Renzong put down his son in his arms, walked up to Yan Xiu and the four of them, and asked in a deep voice, "Why do you four want to rebel?"
Yan Xiu and the others lowered their heads and did not speak.
Zhang Maoshi stepped forward and said to Song Renzong: "Officials, villains, come and interrogate them."
Song Renzong nodded slightly: "I leave it to you for interrogation."
"Officials! Officials! Officials!" An anxious and worried voice came from not far away, and then she saw Zhang Meiren rushing with a group of imperial guards with her big belly.
When Song Renzong saw Zhang Meiren coming, his face immediately became gentle.
"Officials!" Zhang Meiren hurriedly ran towards Song Renzong. Her hair was messy, her clothes were thin, and her face was full of panic and worry.She held Song Renzong's hands tightly and looked him carefully from head to toe several times, "Guanjia, are you okay, are you injured?"
Song Renzong reached out to hold Zhang Meiren's hands, and looked at her tenderly with his eyes: "I'm fine, I'm not hurt."
"Really?" Zhang Meiren didn't quite believe it, and checked Song Renzong's body again.
Song Renzong was very cooperative and turned around in front of her to let her check.
"Great, official." Zhang Meiren threw herself into Song Renzong's arms, holding him tightly with both hands, "It's really great that you are not injured."
Song Renzong hugged Zhang Meiren and patted her on the back lightly: "I'm fine."
Zhao Yang stood aside, watching the interaction between Song Renzong and Zhang Meiren coldly.
Zhang Meiren withdrew from Song Renzong's arms, crying and laughing and said: "I heard that there was a rebellion in the palace. I was worried that something would happen to you in the official family, so I brought some imperial guards to rescue you. Fortunately, the official You are fine." Zhang Meiren noticed Zhao Yang's existence when she first arrived, and she probably guessed that it was Zhao Yang who led people to save Song Renzong, and she was very angry.
Song Renzong reached out to straighten Zhang Meiren's somewhat messy hair, then took off his cloak and put it on Zhang Meiren.
"I'm fine, but you're pregnant, so be careful."
"Guanjia, the baby in my stomach and I are fine." Zhang Meiren said softly, "As long as the Guanjia is okay, the baby in my stomach and I will be fine."
Just then, Empress Cao came over.She just brought Miao Zhaorong and Chunyu over, not the guards.
Seeing that Empress Cao came after her, Zhang Meiren asked in a strange way: "Why did the empress come here?" After finishing speaking, she glanced at Zhao Yang again, and said pointedly, "His Royal Highness is better than the empress." Come early."
Empress Cao directly ignored Zhang Meiren, first saluted Song Renzong, and then asked with concern: "Official, are you okay?"
Seeing Empress Cao, the gentle expression on Song Renzong's face suddenly disappeared, and he said lightly: "I'm fine."
Miao Zhaorong looked at Song Renzong worriedly: "Official, are you not injured?"
When Song Renzong looked at Miao Zhaorong, his face instantly became a little more tender: "I am not hurt."
Miao Zhaorong relaxed, and said with a long sigh of relief: "It's great that you are fine, official." After she finished speaking, she looked at Zhang Meiren, her face became a little stern, "Zhang Meiren, do you see the Queen Mother?" It’s fine if you’re not polite to me, and you’re still asking why the empress came late, what right do you have to ask?”
Zhang Meiren didn't expect that Miao Zhaorong would dare to reprimand her in front of Song Renzong, and she looked at Song Renzong aggrievedly.
"Officials, the concubine came to see you when she heard that there was an accident in the palace. On the way, she met the empress." Miao Zhaorong said, "The empress is worried that something will happen to the concubine, so she doesn't want to let the concubine come with her, but the concubine The concubine insisted on looking for you with the empress, so I wasted some time, so I came late."
Hearing what Miao Zhaorong said, Song Renzong glanced at Empress Cao, his expression was not as cold as before, but a little more gentle.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Empress Cao didn't seem to see Song Renzong's softened eyes, and said respectfully: "It's good that the officials are fine."
"Thanks to Yang Yang." Song Renzong saw that it was late and he was more exposed, so he asked Zhang Meiren to go back first, "You are pregnant, go back and rest quickly, don't freeze."
"Official, I want to accompany you." Zhang Meiren said coquettishly, holding Song Renzong's arm.
"I'm fine, you go back first." Song Renzong raised his hand and caressed the beauty's face, "Be good, be obedient, go back and warm up, don't freeze."
Zhang Meiren was also worried that she would be frozen. After hearing what Song Renzong said, she nodded obediently: "Then I will go back first, and you should rest earlier, the official family."
Song Renzong nodded slightly, and then said to Zhang Meiren: "Apology to the queen and Miao Zhaorong."
When Zhang Meiren heard this, her eyes widened in astonishment, as if she couldn't believe what she heard.
Song Renzong looked at Zhang Meiren seriously, and his tone was unquestionable: "Apologize to the queen and Miao Zhaorong."
Zhang Meiren was unwilling, and looked at Song Renzong pitifully.
Song Renzong was indifferent, and looked at Zhang Meiren with severe eyes.
Zhang Meiren didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and reluctantly bowed to Empress Cao and Miao Zhaorong: "Empress, Miao Zhaorong, my concubine was rude just now."
Miao Zhaorong snorted coldly and said, "Miss Zhang, don't be rude just because you are pregnant."
Zhang Meiren was secretly resented by Miao Zhaorong's unkind words, and she gritted her teeth and said, "The concubine will leave."
Li Lin glanced at Zhang Meiren, Zhang Meiren shook her head slightly at him, but he didn't follow, and obediently stayed where she was.
Song Renzong waved to Zhang Maoshi, motioning him to take Yan Xiu and the four of them down for interrogation.Then, let Chu Yue and the others go down to clean up the mess.
Li Lin and the others followed Chu Yue and the others, trying to clean up with Chu Yue and the others, but they were driven away by Chu Yue and the others.
Song Renzong also asked Empress Cao and Miao Zhaorong to go back, leaving Zhao Yang to accompany him.
On the way back to Kunning Palace, Miao Zhaorong looked angry: "Your Majesty, what Zhang Meiren said just now meant to frame you and His Highness the Crown Prince."
Empress Cao nodded lightly: "I know." So, she didn't say anything just now.Once she said something, she would be completely suspected by the officials.
Miao Zhaorong looked terrified: "Ma'am, the officials don't believe Zhang Meiren's words, right?" The officials have always believed in Zhang Meiren's words, and Zhang Meiren took advantage of the official's suspicion of the empress, maybe the officials really believed it .
Seeing Miao Zhaorong's worried face, Empress Cao gave her a comforting smile: "No."
"Really?" Miao Zhaorong felt uneasy.
"I only took you, and Chunyu and the others to Funing Palace, but they didn't bring the imperial guards, so the officials didn't believe Zhang Meiren's words." If she took the imperial guards to Funing Palace like Zhang Meiren, then the official Everyone will doubt her.
"That's good." Miao Zhaorong was really afraid that Song Renzong would doubt Empress Cao, "Mother, why is His Highness the Crown Prince in Funing Palace?"
"He took people to save the official's house."
"His Royal Highness brought someone to save the official's house?!" Miao Zhaorong exclaimed, "Your Majesty, what is going on?"
"Go back and talk."
In Funing Palace, Song Renzong and Zhao Yang, father and son, were already lying on the bed.
Zhao Yang sat cross-legged on the bed, and told Song Renzong in detail how Chu Yue and the others discovered that Yan Xiu and the others were not quite right, and how they monitored Yan Xiu and the others.
After Song Renzong heard this, he was very shocked.He didn't expect his son to be so thoughtful at such a young age.
"I thought Yan Xiu and the others were trying to harm me, but I didn't expect that they were rebelling." Zhao Yang sighed quietly and said, "If I knew this was the case, I would have told you and Dad in advance."
Song Renzong frowned lightly: "You think Yan Xiu and the others will treat you badly?"
Zhao Yang nodded: "Well, I thought Yan Xiu and the others were after me."
"Yangyang, why do you think that Yan Xiu and the others will treat you badly?"
Zhao Yang looked at Song Renzong with a hesitant expression.
Seeing his son's hesitant expression, Song Renzong smiled lovingly at him: "If there is anything you can't say to daddy."
"Daddy, I told you, you promise not to get angry."
Song Renzong was puzzled, but still nodded slightly: "Daddy promises not to be angry."
"Because many imperial guards support the child in Zhang Meiren's stomach, and feel that I, the crown prince, block the way of the child in Zhang Meiren's stomach..."
Before Zhao Yang finished speaking, he was interrupted by Song Renzong in a deep voice: "Who told you this?"
"Daddy, this matter has been spread in the imperial guards for a long time." Zhao Yang bit his lip, his expression looked pitiful and aggrieved, "Everyone said that Daddy dotes on Zhang Meiren, and when Zhang Meiren gave birth to a prince, Daddy He will definitely love Zhang Meiren's child in every possible way, and then Daddy will not want me as the crown prince, but will depose me as the crown prince and re-appoint Zhang Meiren's child as the crown prince."
Song Renzong asked coldly with a gloomy face, "Which Imperial Guard said that?"
"Li Lin, the imperial guards who came to Funing Palace with Zhang Meiren just now." Zhao Yang continued, "There is one thing I haven't told my father."
"whats the matter?"
"Chu Yue and the others told me that Li Lin was bought by Zhang Yaozuo. It was Zhang Yaozuo who told people everywhere that Zhang Meiren was pregnant with a prince, and that as long as Zhang Mei gave birth to a prince, I, the prince, would fall out of favor and be despised by your father. After Zhao Yang finished speaking, he looked at Song Renzong pitifully, "Daddy, when Zhang Mei gives birth to a younger brother, do you really want me?"
Song Renzong felt a pain in his heart when he saw his son's pitiful and cautious eyes. He quickly hugged Zhao Yang into his arms and patted him on the back lightly.
"Daddy won't want you."
Zhao Yang raised his head from Song Renzong's arms, and asked in disbelief: "Really, everyone said that Daddy would not want me if he had a younger brother, and that he would drive me and Madam away?"
Song Renzong was very angry. He didn't expect Zhang Yaozuo to spread such rumors boldly.
"Really, daddy will not want you, nor will he drive you and the queen away."
"Daddy, you really won't want me?"
Listening to his son asking him over and over again, Song Renzong felt very uncomfortable. He hugged his son tightly and said, "Yang Yang is Daddy's best son, Daddy won't want you."
Zhao Yang asked uneasily again: "Daddy, you have a younger brother, do you really want me?"
"No, even if Daddy has a younger brother, Yang Yang is still Daddy's best son." Song Renzong looked at his son with distressed eyes, "Daddy will never let Yang Yang go!"
Zhao Yang stretched out his little finger towards Song Renzong, "Pull the hook."
"Okay, Dad will pull the hook with you." Song Renzong stretched out his little finger to hook Zhao Yang's little finger, "Daddy will always hang up, and the hook will not change for 100 years."
"If the hook is hanged, it must not be changed for 100 years!"
Song Renzong's thumb and his son's thumb were stamped, "Yang Yang will always be Daddy's good son."
"Daddy, if you change your mind and don't want me anymore, then I won't want you either."
These words made Song Renzong's heart tingle, "Daddy always says what he says, but he won't change his mind. Don't think about not wanting Daddy."
"Okay, then I trust Daddy."
"Why didn't you tell Dad?" Song Renzong felt very distressed when he saw his son was hurt by the rumors, and wished he could call Zhang Yaozuo to beat him up now.
Zhao Yang lowered his head and whispered, "I dare not."
"Why don't you dare say it?"
"I'm afraid that Daddy will be unhappy, and I'm afraid that Daddy really doesn't want me."
Zhao Yang's words were like a knife, piercing hard into Song Renzong's chest, "Stupid Yang Yang, Daddy will not want you, and you must tell Daddy about anything in the future, Daddy will make the decision for you." Damn Zhang Yaozuo!
Zhao Yang pouted, and said pitifully, "But everyone believes it."
"You have to trust Daddy." Song Renzong coaxed, "Daddy will always be in a hurry."
Zhao Yang raised his small face and smiled sweetly at Song Renzong: "Okay, I trust Daddy."
Song Renzong lowered his head and kissed his son's little face, "Sleepy or not, do you want to sleep?"
"Daddy, you go to bed first, and then I go to bed."
Song Renzong asked in confusion: "Why do you want Daddy to go to bed first?"
Zhao Yang said seriously: "Because Daddy, you were frightened tonight, and I'm afraid you'll have nightmares when you fall asleep." After speaking, he patted Song Renzong's face lightly, "Daddy, shut up quickly. Eyes sleep."
This sentence made Song Renzong's nose sore, his eyes were slightly red, and his voice was a little choked: "Okay, daddy, close your eyes and go to sleep."
Sitting beside Song Renzong, Zhao Yang gently patted the quilt on his father's chest with his small hands, and said to his father in a childlike voice: "Dad, sleep well, and with me here, nightmares will not come to you."
Song Renzong, who was put to sleep like a child, felt warm and soft in his heart.He thought he couldn't fall asleep at first, but he fell asleep slowly after being coaxed by his son.
Zhao Yang called Song Renzong several times, but he didn't wake him up, thinking that he should be asleep.
"My son is really filial." Zhao Yang praised himself, and then a burst of sleepiness hit him. He yawned, got into the bed, and slept beside Song Renzong.
In his sleep, Song Renzong came to Xiangguo Temple in a daze.He saw himself playing chess with Master Kong Jing.
"Master, is it because I didn't show filial piety to my biological mother, so God is punishing me and leaving me childless?"
Song Renzong suddenly remembered when this happened. It happened after Zuixinglai died of illness a few years ago.
"Officials, you didn't know that Empress Dowager Zhuang Yi was your biological mother. Those who don't know are innocent. God, and Empress Dowager Zhuang Yi will not blame you."
"Then why did my children die young one by one?" Song Renzong in the dream looked sad and indignant, "The most happy thing is the son I was looking forward to with great difficulty. He has been healthy since he was born, but he died a few days ago. Isn't that true? Are you punishing me?"
"Official, you have no fate with King Yu."
"Do I really want to have no sons and no heirs?" An emperor who has no sons and no heirs will only be punished if he has done something unforgivable.
Master Kongjing took a deep look at Song Renzong: "Guanjia, you will have a son, but it's not the time yet."
When Song Renzong heard the words, his eyes lit up, and he asked in disbelief, "Master, do you mean that I will have a son in the future?"
Master Kongjing nodded slightly, stroked his beard, and said inscrutablely: "Yes, you will have a son in the future."
Song Renzong was full of surprise: "Master, how long are you talking about?"
"A few years later."
"In a few years, I will have a son."
Song Renzong smiled all over his face, but Master Kong Jing's next words froze the smile on his face.
"Official family, this son must be born to the empress."
"What, born of the empress?" Song Renzong frowned immediately, his expression became dissatisfied, "Master, you mean that I will have a son in a few years, but this son is born of the empress?"
Master Kongjing nodded lightly: "That's right." After finishing speaking, he said again, "Officials, except for the empress, no one can give birth to a prince for you."
Song Renzong frowned deeply: "Except for the queen, no one can give birth to a prince for me?"
"Yes."
"Master, can you change it?"
"Officials, you can't change it." Master Kong Jing said again, "You can also choose not to have this prince with the empress."
Song Renzong looked at Master Kong Jing, and then sighed helplessly: "Master, I don't want the queen to give birth to a prince." If he wanted the queen to give birth to a prince, he would have already given birth to the queen. "The power of the Cao family is overwhelming, and I can't let my prince have an ancestral family with power. I'm afraid that in a hundred years from now, the Jiangshan of the Song Dynasty will change their surname to Cao."
Master Kong Jing knew that Song Renzong was afraid of the Cao family, so he did not speak for the Cao family.
"Officials, the old man said that you can also choose not to have a prince with the empress."
Song Renzong did not give up: "Master, is there really no one else except the queen?"
"No more." Master Kongjing stroked his beard and said mysteriously, "Official family, the prince born to you and the empress is a legitimate son, destined to be extraordinary."
"I'm afraid of the Cao family..." Song Renzong didn't want to give birth to a son-in-law and make his son the crown prince, but the Cao family... "I don't want my relatives to control the government, let alone ruin the country of the Song Dynasty, otherwise I will be a hundred years old." After that, I don’t have the face to go down to see my ancestors.”
Master Kong Jing didn't say anything more.
Then, the scene in the dream changed.
Song Renzong and Master Kong Jing were standing under the ginkgo tree in Xiangguo Temple. This was four years ago.
"Master, is there really no one else except the queen?" At this time, Song Renzong was urged by the ministers to go to the clan to adopt a child and train him as a prince.
"No more." Master Kongjing looked at Song Renzong, and said to him with deep meaning, "Officials, if you miss this year, you will miss this prince, and there will be no more princes in the future."
"What?" Song Renzong was startled, "Master, you mean that if I don't have a prince with the queen this year, there will be no more princes in the future?"
"That's right, if you miss this year, you will really have no children."
Song Renzong said with an obscure expression: "It seems that this is destined."
"Official, you don't have to accept this fate."
Song Renzong smiled bitterly: "Master, I have to accept this fate." He cannot live without a prince.
"Since the official family is willing to accept this fate, don't worry about it anymore." Master Kong Jing comforted, "The official family, once it comes, it will be safe."
"The master is right, if you come, you will be safe." Childlessness is more serious than foreign relatives dominating the government.In the future, he will teach the prince well, let him beware of the Cao family, and not let the Cao family maintain the government.
The scene in the dream changed again, this was more than two years ago, before Master Kong Jing practiced in seclusion.
"Master, I'm glad I listened to your words." Song Renzong said happily, "I like the prince very much."
"Official, your spirit has improved a lot."
"Yeah, since Yang Yang was born, I seem to be full of energy, and I feel like I'm much younger." With a son, I have confidence. "Fortunately, I listened to your words a year ago."
"Official family, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the direct son of you and the empress, destined to be born extraordinary."
"Are you born extraordinary?" Song Renzong smiled, "According to Master's auspicious words."
At this time, the situation in the dream changed again.
"Why did the officials come to Xiangguo Temple at this time?"
"Master Kongjing?" Song Renzong was a little confused, was he dreaming, or...
"Why did the officials come to find the old monk in the dream?"
"I came to look for you in my dream?" Sure enough, I was dreaming, "I came to thank Master."
"Official, this is the choice you made at the beginning, so you don't need to thank me again and again."
"Master, do you know what I want to thank you for?"
Master Kong Jing smiled at Song Renzong with deep meaning: "The official family, you should thank the empress empress most, she gave birth to your highness the crown prince."
Song Renzong laughed and said: "Master is indeed a master, I guess what I want to say." After speaking, he slightly sighed, "Master is right, I should thank the queen most."
"Since the officials know, there is no need for me to say anything."
As soon as Master Kong Jing finished speaking, Song Renzong woke up from his dream.At this time, it was just dawn.
Dream?
What a dream.
Song Renzong just woke up, he was still a little confused, and he hadn't recovered yet.Suddenly he heard the sound of shallow breathing coming from his ear, he looked over and saw his son lying on the bed, with a pair of calves pressing on his stomach.
How did this child sleep, how did he sleep himself horizontally?
Song Renzong sat up, gently picked up his son, and then put him flat on the bed.
Zhao Yang slept very deeply and was not awakened by Song Renzong.
Song Renzong lay on his side on the bed, propped his face with his hands, and looked at his son lovingly and lovingly.
I was really coaxed to sleep by Yang Yang, and I was really coaxed by Yang Yang so that I didn't have nightmares.
He stretched out his hand and gently poked his son's soft little face, "It's really my little lucky star."
Zhao Yang turned over and rolled into Song Renzong's arms, unconsciously grasping the clothes on his father's chest with both hands.
Seeing his son sleeping in his arms obediently, Song Renzong's heart was about to melt.Immediately, he thought of what his son said to him last night, and his face immediately turned cold.
At this moment, Zhang Maoshi came in quietly and called out in a low voice, "Official?"
Song Renzong sat up, carefully tucked the corners of the quilt for Zhao Yang, and then lifted the curtain and got out of bed.
"Has the interrogation come out?"
"The interrogation is out."
Song Renzong nodded and didn't speak any more. He opened his hands and asked Zhang Maoshi to change his clothes.
After changing his clothes, Song Renzong was afraid of waking his son, so he turned around and went to the side hall to wash up.
After Song Renzong finished washing, Zhang Maoshi told him the results of the interrogation last night.
"Yan Xiu and the others said that they were instructed by Zhang Yaozuo to deliberately pretend to be a rebellion, and then let them..." At this point, Zhang Maoshi did not dare to continue.
"What more?" Song Renzong had already guessed.
"Let Zhang Meiren bring someone to rescue the official's family, then Zhang Meiren will be able to serve as escort..."
With a snap, Song Renzong slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground.
Zhang Maoshi and Liang Yin were so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground.
Song Renzong's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were full of anger.
Zhang Maoshi raised his head and said cautiously: "Guanjia, there is one more thing."
"Say!"
"According to Yan Xiu and the four of them, Zhang Yaozuo made friends with the imperial guards everywhere, and spread rumors everywhere, saying that Zhang Meiren will definitely give birth to a prince for the official family. At that time, the official family will depose the prince and make the prince born by Zhang Meiren the crown prince. Prince."
"Zhang! Yao! Zuo!" Song Renzong was so angry that his expression became distorted, "Put Zhang Yaozuo in prison."
"Yes, the official family." Zhang Maoshi asked, "How should Yan Xiu and the others deal with the official family?"
"Put them in prison together."
"Yes, official."
Song Renzong was so angry that even breakfast was useless, so he went directly to the morning court.
Before the early court ended, word spread in the palace that Zhang Yaozuo was imprisoned.
In Kunning Palace, Empress Cao and Miao Zhaorong had just finished their breakfast.
Last night, both of them went to bed late.Today, I woke up late in the morning.
"Mother, why was Zhang Yaozuo imprisoned?" Miao Zhaorong said with a look of surprise, "Didn't the official just promote him some time ago?"
"It should have done something." Empress Cao probably guessed what was going on in her heart, but she still had doubts.Only by waiting for his son to return from Funing Palace can he know what happened.
"Although I don't know what happened, Zhang Yaozuo's imprisonment is really a relief." Although Empress Cao told Miao Zhaorong not to care about Zhang Meiren's affairs, Miao Zhaorong still couldn't understand Zhang Meiren.Seeing that Zhang Meiren's uncle was imprisoned unfortunately, she felt very relieved and very happy.
"You..." Empress Cao smiled helplessly, "In the future, you should be more polite to Zhang Meiren in front of the officials. After all, she is pregnant now. If anything happens to her, she will be the first to frame you."
"She dares!" Miao Zhaorong said angrily, "Even if she framed me, the officials would not believe it."
"It's not that you don't know that she is used to fanning the flames. Even if the officials believe you, but she often tells you that you are wrong in front of the officials, the officials may really believe her words and doubt you." Empress Cao said this, not for To scare Miao Zhaorong, but to make Miao Zhaorong pay attention in the future.
"The official family and I have been in friendship since childhood. If the official family listens to Zhang Meiren's words, then I..." Miao Zhaorong's eyes suddenly turned red, and tears glistened in them.
Empress Cao didn't expect to make Miao Zhaorong cry, so she quickly comforted her: "I'm talking nonsense, the official family grew up with you, and I will never be provoked by Zhang Meiren to disbelieve you."
Miao Zhaorong realized that she had lost her composure, and hurriedly put away her tears, and changed the subject to talk about Zhao Yang.
"I wonder if His Royal Highness is awake?"
"I slept late last night, so I guess he hasn't woken up yet."
"Such a thrilling and frightening thing happened last night, and I don't know if His Royal Highness was frightened, did he have any nightmares last night?" The more Miao Zhaorong said, the more worried he was about Zhao Yang.
"With the officials here, Yang Yang will be fine. Don't worry." Empress Cao thought that they didn't sleep well last night, so she said softly to Miao Zhaorong, "You can go back later and have a good sleep."
"I blamed me for talking too much last night, so that you didn't sleep well." After returning to Kunning Palace last night, Miao Zhaorong stayed directly in Kunning Palace, sleeping on the same bed with Empress Cao, and kept saying Regarding the matter of the rebellion, I didn't sleep until Yinshichu. "Your Majesty, you should catch up on sleep later."
"I'll wait for Yang Yang to come back." Empress Cao said with a smile, "I'll sleep in the afternoon."
"Then I'll go back first."
"Get a good night's sleep."
In Mingluan Pavilion, Zhang Meiren is still sleeping, not waking up.
Ju Bai didn't dare to wake up Beauty Zhang.He planned to wait for Zhang Meiren to wake up, and then tell her about Zhang Yaozuo's imprisonment.
When the lady wakes up and finds out about this, she is afraid that she will be irritated again. What should she do if she gets pregnant.However, this matter has to be told to the wife.
In Funing Palace, Zhao Yang didn't wake up until Sishi.
Song Renzong just went down to court a moment before he woke up, and when he saw him awake, he took him to have breakfast.
"Dad, didn't you have breakfast?"
"No, Daddy is waiting to have breakfast with you." Song Renzong peeled an egg for Zhao Yang himself, and then fed it to his mouth.
Zhao Yang opened his mouth and took a big bite, and began to eat happily.
Seeing his son eating well, Song Renzong, who had no appetite before, gained some appetite.
Zhao Yang is three years old, and he can eat by himself long ago, without Song Renzong feeding himself.However, Song Renzong still feeds his son himself every time he eats with him.Zhao Yang had no choice but to let Song Renzong feed him.
After feeding his son and finishing his breakfast, Song Renzong fed Zhao Yang goat milk.
The goat milk that Zhao Yang drank was boiled, and there were many things in it, such as black sesame seeds, walnuts, almonds and the like.It tastes like this without any smell.
Song Renzong originally objected to his son drinking goat milk, but later saw that his son drank goat milk in good health, so he stopped objecting.
From birth to now, although Zhao Yang has suffered from wind and cold, he has never had a fever.The number of times he suffered from wind and cold was also very rare. In the past three years, the number of times he suffered from wind and cold did not exceed five times, and each time he recovered within a few days.
After breakfast, the father and son went to Kunning Palace hand in hand.
As soon as Song Renzong arrived at Kunning Palace on his front foot, Beauty Zhang came to Funing Palace on his back foot.
Zhang Meiren woke up and learned that her uncle was imprisoned, so anxious that she didn't even have breakfast, so she hurried to Funing Palace.Knowing that Song Renzong had gone to Kunning Palace, he was very resentful, and hurried to Kunning Palace again.
Empress Cao first saluted Song Renzong, and then waved to her son.
Zhao Yang obediently walked in front of Empress Cao, and smiled obediently at his lady: "Madam, I slept well last night, and I didn't have any nightmares."
Empress Cao looked her son up and down, and felt relieved when she saw that his son was in good spirits.
"That's good." After finishing speaking, she asked Song Renzong with concern, "Guan, did you sleep well last night?"
"Thanks to Yang Yang, I did a good job last night." Song Renzong told Empress Cao about Zhao Yang coaxing him to sleep.
Zhao Yang patted his small chest, and said with a proud face: "With me here, Daddy won't have nightmares."
Song Renzong picked up his son and rubbed his little face.
"Yang Yang is Daddy's little lucky star, with Yang Yang here, Daddy will be fine."
Empress Cao saw that Song Renzong loved Zhao Yang as much as before, and the boulder that had been hanging on her heart since last night could finally fall.It seems that the officials did not suspect Yang Yang.
Zhao Yang raised his hand and patted Song Renzong's shoulder, and said to his father in the tone of a kid: "Don't worry, Dad, I will protect you."
This sentence made Song Renzong's heart tremble violently. He lowered his head and rubbed his son's little nose, and said with a smile: "Yang Yang is really Daddy!"
Song Renzong said softly: "Get up."
"Thank you, official." Chu Yue and the others stood up and said.
Song Renzong looked at Zhao Yang suspiciously, then at Chu Yue and the others, and asked, "What's going on?"
Zhao Yang didn't answer, but looked at Chu Yue.
Chu Yue instantly understood the meaning of His Highness the Crown Prince, took a step forward and said: "If you go back to the official's house, Yan Xiu and the others are plotting to rebel, and I will take them down immediately after I find out." The four of them on the ground, Yan Xiu, continued, "Officials, the four of them are the masterminds of this rebellion, and the rest of the rebels have also been taken down."
Hearing that all the rebels had been taken down, Song Renzong heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a surprised expression: "Okay, okay." After speaking, he asked in confusion, "What's going on?"
Song Renzong slept soundly, when he was suddenly informed of an accident in the palace, he was so frightened that he got up quickly, only to be told that there was a rebellion in the palace, which frightened him very much.Then, he heard the screams coming from outside the Funing Palace, which frightened him.Just when he thought he was going to have an accident, his son came to tell him that it was all right, and until now he didn't know what happened.
Chu Yue didn't answer in a hurry, but glanced at Zhao Yang.
Zhao Yang nodded lightly to Chu Yue, signaling him to continue reporting to Song Renzong.
"When I went back to the official's house, some time ago, Richen found out that Yan Xiu and the others were abnormal, so he reported the matter to His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness asked the minister to keep an eye on Yan Xiu and the other four to see what they were trying to do. " Chu Yue said these words, of course Zhao Yang ordered him to say so. "Chen and others have been secretly watching Yan Xiu and the others, but they have not made any moves. But the day before yesterday, Yan Xiu and others suddenly changed shifts with Chen and others, and chose to be on duty tonight, so that Chen and others can go home and rest. When I felt that this matter was a bit strange, I reported it to His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Highness asked the ministers to enter the palace quietly tonight and keep a close eye on Yan Xiu and the others."
When Song Renzong heard this, he turned his head and looked at his son standing beside him, his eyes were full of relief.
Chu Yue continued to report: "In the first half of the night, the ministers did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and kept staring at Yan Xiu and the others. Yan Xiu and the others did not make any moves, but after a while, Yan Xiu and the others began to kill and set fire in the palace. , I will immediately step forward to stop you." After speaking, he suddenly knelt on the ground, "The officials were shocked, and the officials are guilty, please forgive me."
Song Renzong stood up, walked up to Chu Yue and the others, and personally reached out to help them up.
"You did a good job and stopped the rebels in time."
Chu Yue and the others were praised by the officials, but they did not get carried away with complacency, but said respectfully: "The officials, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ordered the ministers to stop Yan Xiu and the others if they found out that Yan Xiu and the others were planning any wrongdoing. "
Song Renzong looked at his son and asked gently, "Yangyang, why didn't you tell your father about this?"
"Father, I don't know what Yan Xiu and the others are going to do. I can only let Chu Yue and the others keep an eye on Yan Xiu and the others first." Zhao Yang had already colluded with Chu Yue and the others, "Besides, if I tell you, don't Did you startle the snake?" After speaking, he frowned, and his expression became a little cold in an instant, "It's just that I didn't expect Yan Xiu and the others to rebel. If I knew it was like this, I would have told you, Dad."
Song Renzong reached out and hugged his son into his arms, touched his son's little face, and said lovingly: "Yangyang, you did a good job and saved Daddy." Knowing that it was his son who saved him, Song Renzong felt in his heart It is full of joy and pride.
Zhao Yang pouted and said, "Father was still frightened."
Seeing the regret and self-blame on his son's face, Song Renzong's heart softened: "Daddy is fine."
"Daddy, Chu Yue and the others did a great job in saving him, you should reward them well."
Chu Yue and the others became very excited when they heard His Highness the Crown Prince's words, but their faces were very calm.
"His Royal Highness, the duty of the ministers is to protect the official family, and the ministers dare not take credit for it."
"The crown prince is right, you have done a great job in saving him, and I will definitely reward you well."
Chu Yue and the others hurriedly knelt down to thank him: "Thank you to the official family, and thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Song Renzong put down his son in his arms, walked up to Yan Xiu and the four of them, and asked in a deep voice, "Why do you four want to rebel?"
Yan Xiu and the others lowered their heads and did not speak.
Zhang Maoshi stepped forward and said to Song Renzong: "Officials, villains, come and interrogate them."
Song Renzong nodded slightly: "I leave it to you for interrogation."
"Officials! Officials! Officials!" An anxious and worried voice came from not far away, and then she saw Zhang Meiren rushing with a group of imperial guards with her big belly.
When Song Renzong saw Zhang Meiren coming, his face immediately became gentle.
"Officials!" Zhang Meiren hurriedly ran towards Song Renzong. Her hair was messy, her clothes were thin, and her face was full of panic and worry.She held Song Renzong's hands tightly and looked him carefully from head to toe several times, "Guanjia, are you okay, are you injured?"
Song Renzong reached out to hold Zhang Meiren's hands, and looked at her tenderly with his eyes: "I'm fine, I'm not hurt."
"Really?" Zhang Meiren didn't quite believe it, and checked Song Renzong's body again.
Song Renzong was very cooperative and turned around in front of her to let her check.
"Great, official." Zhang Meiren threw herself into Song Renzong's arms, holding him tightly with both hands, "It's really great that you are not injured."
Song Renzong hugged Zhang Meiren and patted her on the back lightly: "I'm fine."
Zhao Yang stood aside, watching the interaction between Song Renzong and Zhang Meiren coldly.
Zhang Meiren withdrew from Song Renzong's arms, crying and laughing and said: "I heard that there was a rebellion in the palace. I was worried that something would happen to you in the official family, so I brought some imperial guards to rescue you. Fortunately, the official You are fine." Zhang Meiren noticed Zhao Yang's existence when she first arrived, and she probably guessed that it was Zhao Yang who led people to save Song Renzong, and she was very angry.
Song Renzong reached out to straighten Zhang Meiren's somewhat messy hair, then took off his cloak and put it on Zhang Meiren.
"I'm fine, but you're pregnant, so be careful."
"Guanjia, the baby in my stomach and I are fine." Zhang Meiren said softly, "As long as the Guanjia is okay, the baby in my stomach and I will be fine."
Just then, Empress Cao came over.She just brought Miao Zhaorong and Chunyu over, not the guards.
Seeing that Empress Cao came after her, Zhang Meiren asked in a strange way: "Why did the empress come here?" After finishing speaking, she glanced at Zhao Yang again, and said pointedly, "His Royal Highness is better than the empress." Come early."
Empress Cao directly ignored Zhang Meiren, first saluted Song Renzong, and then asked with concern: "Official, are you okay?"
Seeing Empress Cao, the gentle expression on Song Renzong's face suddenly disappeared, and he said lightly: "I'm fine."
Miao Zhaorong looked at Song Renzong worriedly: "Official, are you not injured?"
When Song Renzong looked at Miao Zhaorong, his face instantly became a little more tender: "I am not hurt."
Miao Zhaorong relaxed, and said with a long sigh of relief: "It's great that you are fine, official." After she finished speaking, she looked at Zhang Meiren, her face became a little stern, "Zhang Meiren, do you see the Queen Mother?" It’s fine if you’re not polite to me, and you’re still asking why the empress came late, what right do you have to ask?”
Zhang Meiren didn't expect that Miao Zhaorong would dare to reprimand her in front of Song Renzong, and she looked at Song Renzong aggrievedly.
"Officials, the concubine came to see you when she heard that there was an accident in the palace. On the way, she met the empress." Miao Zhaorong said, "The empress is worried that something will happen to the concubine, so she doesn't want to let the concubine come with her, but the concubine The concubine insisted on looking for you with the empress, so I wasted some time, so I came late."
Hearing what Miao Zhaorong said, Song Renzong glanced at Empress Cao, his expression was not as cold as before, but a little more gentle.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Empress Cao didn't seem to see Song Renzong's softened eyes, and said respectfully: "It's good that the officials are fine."
"Thanks to Yang Yang." Song Renzong saw that it was late and he was more exposed, so he asked Zhang Meiren to go back first, "You are pregnant, go back and rest quickly, don't freeze."
"Official, I want to accompany you." Zhang Meiren said coquettishly, holding Song Renzong's arm.
"I'm fine, you go back first." Song Renzong raised his hand and caressed the beauty's face, "Be good, be obedient, go back and warm up, don't freeze."
Zhang Meiren was also worried that she would be frozen. After hearing what Song Renzong said, she nodded obediently: "Then I will go back first, and you should rest earlier, the official family."
Song Renzong nodded slightly, and then said to Zhang Meiren: "Apology to the queen and Miao Zhaorong."
When Zhang Meiren heard this, her eyes widened in astonishment, as if she couldn't believe what she heard.
Song Renzong looked at Zhang Meiren seriously, and his tone was unquestionable: "Apologize to the queen and Miao Zhaorong."
Zhang Meiren was unwilling, and looked at Song Renzong pitifully.
Song Renzong was indifferent, and looked at Zhang Meiren with severe eyes.
Zhang Meiren didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and reluctantly bowed to Empress Cao and Miao Zhaorong: "Empress, Miao Zhaorong, my concubine was rude just now."
Miao Zhaorong snorted coldly and said, "Miss Zhang, don't be rude just because you are pregnant."
Zhang Meiren was secretly resented by Miao Zhaorong's unkind words, and she gritted her teeth and said, "The concubine will leave."
Li Lin glanced at Zhang Meiren, Zhang Meiren shook her head slightly at him, but he didn't follow, and obediently stayed where she was.
Song Renzong waved to Zhang Maoshi, motioning him to take Yan Xiu and the four of them down for interrogation.Then, let Chu Yue and the others go down to clean up the mess.
Li Lin and the others followed Chu Yue and the others, trying to clean up with Chu Yue and the others, but they were driven away by Chu Yue and the others.
Song Renzong also asked Empress Cao and Miao Zhaorong to go back, leaving Zhao Yang to accompany him.
On the way back to Kunning Palace, Miao Zhaorong looked angry: "Your Majesty, what Zhang Meiren said just now meant to frame you and His Highness the Crown Prince."
Empress Cao nodded lightly: "I know." So, she didn't say anything just now.Once she said something, she would be completely suspected by the officials.
Miao Zhaorong looked terrified: "Ma'am, the officials don't believe Zhang Meiren's words, right?" The officials have always believed in Zhang Meiren's words, and Zhang Meiren took advantage of the official's suspicion of the empress, maybe the officials really believed it .
Seeing Miao Zhaorong's worried face, Empress Cao gave her a comforting smile: "No."
"Really?" Miao Zhaorong felt uneasy.
"I only took you, and Chunyu and the others to Funing Palace, but they didn't bring the imperial guards, so the officials didn't believe Zhang Meiren's words." If she took the imperial guards to Funing Palace like Zhang Meiren, then the official Everyone will doubt her.
"That's good." Miao Zhaorong was really afraid that Song Renzong would doubt Empress Cao, "Mother, why is His Highness the Crown Prince in Funing Palace?"
"He took people to save the official's house."
"His Royal Highness brought someone to save the official's house?!" Miao Zhaorong exclaimed, "Your Majesty, what is going on?"
"Go back and talk."
In Funing Palace, Song Renzong and Zhao Yang, father and son, were already lying on the bed.
Zhao Yang sat cross-legged on the bed, and told Song Renzong in detail how Chu Yue and the others discovered that Yan Xiu and the others were not quite right, and how they monitored Yan Xiu and the others.
After Song Renzong heard this, he was very shocked.He didn't expect his son to be so thoughtful at such a young age.
"I thought Yan Xiu and the others were trying to harm me, but I didn't expect that they were rebelling." Zhao Yang sighed quietly and said, "If I knew this was the case, I would have told you and Dad in advance."
Song Renzong frowned lightly: "You think Yan Xiu and the others will treat you badly?"
Zhao Yang nodded: "Well, I thought Yan Xiu and the others were after me."
"Yangyang, why do you think that Yan Xiu and the others will treat you badly?"
Zhao Yang looked at Song Renzong with a hesitant expression.
Seeing his son's hesitant expression, Song Renzong smiled lovingly at him: "If there is anything you can't say to daddy."
"Daddy, I told you, you promise not to get angry."
Song Renzong was puzzled, but still nodded slightly: "Daddy promises not to be angry."
"Because many imperial guards support the child in Zhang Meiren's stomach, and feel that I, the crown prince, block the way of the child in Zhang Meiren's stomach..."
Before Zhao Yang finished speaking, he was interrupted by Song Renzong in a deep voice: "Who told you this?"
"Daddy, this matter has been spread in the imperial guards for a long time." Zhao Yang bit his lip, his expression looked pitiful and aggrieved, "Everyone said that Daddy dotes on Zhang Meiren, and when Zhang Meiren gave birth to a prince, Daddy He will definitely love Zhang Meiren's child in every possible way, and then Daddy will not want me as the crown prince, but will depose me as the crown prince and re-appoint Zhang Meiren's child as the crown prince."
Song Renzong asked coldly with a gloomy face, "Which Imperial Guard said that?"
"Li Lin, the imperial guards who came to Funing Palace with Zhang Meiren just now." Zhao Yang continued, "There is one thing I haven't told my father."
"whats the matter?"
"Chu Yue and the others told me that Li Lin was bought by Zhang Yaozuo. It was Zhang Yaozuo who told people everywhere that Zhang Meiren was pregnant with a prince, and that as long as Zhang Mei gave birth to a prince, I, the prince, would fall out of favor and be despised by your father. After Zhao Yang finished speaking, he looked at Song Renzong pitifully, "Daddy, when Zhang Mei gives birth to a younger brother, do you really want me?"
Song Renzong felt a pain in his heart when he saw his son's pitiful and cautious eyes. He quickly hugged Zhao Yang into his arms and patted him on the back lightly.
"Daddy won't want you."
Zhao Yang raised his head from Song Renzong's arms, and asked in disbelief: "Really, everyone said that Daddy would not want me if he had a younger brother, and that he would drive me and Madam away?"
Song Renzong was very angry. He didn't expect Zhang Yaozuo to spread such rumors boldly.
"Really, daddy will not want you, nor will he drive you and the queen away."
"Daddy, you really won't want me?"
Listening to his son asking him over and over again, Song Renzong felt very uncomfortable. He hugged his son tightly and said, "Yang Yang is Daddy's best son, Daddy won't want you."
Zhao Yang asked uneasily again: "Daddy, you have a younger brother, do you really want me?"
"No, even if Daddy has a younger brother, Yang Yang is still Daddy's best son." Song Renzong looked at his son with distressed eyes, "Daddy will never let Yang Yang go!"
Zhao Yang stretched out his little finger towards Song Renzong, "Pull the hook."
"Okay, Dad will pull the hook with you." Song Renzong stretched out his little finger to hook Zhao Yang's little finger, "Daddy will always hang up, and the hook will not change for 100 years."
"If the hook is hanged, it must not be changed for 100 years!"
Song Renzong's thumb and his son's thumb were stamped, "Yang Yang will always be Daddy's good son."
"Daddy, if you change your mind and don't want me anymore, then I won't want you either."
These words made Song Renzong's heart tingle, "Daddy always says what he says, but he won't change his mind. Don't think about not wanting Daddy."
"Okay, then I trust Daddy."
"Why didn't you tell Dad?" Song Renzong felt very distressed when he saw his son was hurt by the rumors, and wished he could call Zhang Yaozuo to beat him up now.
Zhao Yang lowered his head and whispered, "I dare not."
"Why don't you dare say it?"
"I'm afraid that Daddy will be unhappy, and I'm afraid that Daddy really doesn't want me."
Zhao Yang's words were like a knife, piercing hard into Song Renzong's chest, "Stupid Yang Yang, Daddy will not want you, and you must tell Daddy about anything in the future, Daddy will make the decision for you." Damn Zhang Yaozuo!
Zhao Yang pouted, and said pitifully, "But everyone believes it."
"You have to trust Daddy." Song Renzong coaxed, "Daddy will always be in a hurry."
Zhao Yang raised his small face and smiled sweetly at Song Renzong: "Okay, I trust Daddy."
Song Renzong lowered his head and kissed his son's little face, "Sleepy or not, do you want to sleep?"
"Daddy, you go to bed first, and then I go to bed."
Song Renzong asked in confusion: "Why do you want Daddy to go to bed first?"
Zhao Yang said seriously: "Because Daddy, you were frightened tonight, and I'm afraid you'll have nightmares when you fall asleep." After speaking, he patted Song Renzong's face lightly, "Daddy, shut up quickly. Eyes sleep."
This sentence made Song Renzong's nose sore, his eyes were slightly red, and his voice was a little choked: "Okay, daddy, close your eyes and go to sleep."
Sitting beside Song Renzong, Zhao Yang gently patted the quilt on his father's chest with his small hands, and said to his father in a childlike voice: "Dad, sleep well, and with me here, nightmares will not come to you."
Song Renzong, who was put to sleep like a child, felt warm and soft in his heart.He thought he couldn't fall asleep at first, but he fell asleep slowly after being coaxed by his son.
Zhao Yang called Song Renzong several times, but he didn't wake him up, thinking that he should be asleep.
"My son is really filial." Zhao Yang praised himself, and then a burst of sleepiness hit him. He yawned, got into the bed, and slept beside Song Renzong.
In his sleep, Song Renzong came to Xiangguo Temple in a daze.He saw himself playing chess with Master Kong Jing.
"Master, is it because I didn't show filial piety to my biological mother, so God is punishing me and leaving me childless?"
Song Renzong suddenly remembered when this happened. It happened after Zuixinglai died of illness a few years ago.
"Officials, you didn't know that Empress Dowager Zhuang Yi was your biological mother. Those who don't know are innocent. God, and Empress Dowager Zhuang Yi will not blame you."
"Then why did my children die young one by one?" Song Renzong in the dream looked sad and indignant, "The most happy thing is the son I was looking forward to with great difficulty. He has been healthy since he was born, but he died a few days ago. Isn't that true? Are you punishing me?"
"Official, you have no fate with King Yu."
"Do I really want to have no sons and no heirs?" An emperor who has no sons and no heirs will only be punished if he has done something unforgivable.
Master Kongjing took a deep look at Song Renzong: "Guanjia, you will have a son, but it's not the time yet."
When Song Renzong heard the words, his eyes lit up, and he asked in disbelief, "Master, do you mean that I will have a son in the future?"
Master Kongjing nodded slightly, stroked his beard, and said inscrutablely: "Yes, you will have a son in the future."
Song Renzong was full of surprise: "Master, how long are you talking about?"
"A few years later."
"In a few years, I will have a son."
Song Renzong smiled all over his face, but Master Kong Jing's next words froze the smile on his face.
"Official family, this son must be born to the empress."
"What, born of the empress?" Song Renzong frowned immediately, his expression became dissatisfied, "Master, you mean that I will have a son in a few years, but this son is born of the empress?"
Master Kongjing nodded lightly: "That's right." After finishing speaking, he said again, "Officials, except for the empress, no one can give birth to a prince for you."
Song Renzong frowned deeply: "Except for the queen, no one can give birth to a prince for me?"
"Yes."
"Master, can you change it?"
"Officials, you can't change it." Master Kong Jing said again, "You can also choose not to have this prince with the empress."
Song Renzong looked at Master Kong Jing, and then sighed helplessly: "Master, I don't want the queen to give birth to a prince." If he wanted the queen to give birth to a prince, he would have already given birth to the queen. "The power of the Cao family is overwhelming, and I can't let my prince have an ancestral family with power. I'm afraid that in a hundred years from now, the Jiangshan of the Song Dynasty will change their surname to Cao."
Master Kong Jing knew that Song Renzong was afraid of the Cao family, so he did not speak for the Cao family.
"Officials, the old man said that you can also choose not to have a prince with the empress."
Song Renzong did not give up: "Master, is there really no one else except the queen?"
"No more." Master Kongjing stroked his beard and said mysteriously, "Official family, the prince born to you and the empress is a legitimate son, destined to be extraordinary."
"I'm afraid of the Cao family..." Song Renzong didn't want to give birth to a son-in-law and make his son the crown prince, but the Cao family... "I don't want my relatives to control the government, let alone ruin the country of the Song Dynasty, otherwise I will be a hundred years old." After that, I don’t have the face to go down to see my ancestors.”
Master Kong Jing didn't say anything more.
Then, the scene in the dream changed.
Song Renzong and Master Kong Jing were standing under the ginkgo tree in Xiangguo Temple. This was four years ago.
"Master, is there really no one else except the queen?" At this time, Song Renzong was urged by the ministers to go to the clan to adopt a child and train him as a prince.
"No more." Master Kongjing looked at Song Renzong, and said to him with deep meaning, "Officials, if you miss this year, you will miss this prince, and there will be no more princes in the future."
"What?" Song Renzong was startled, "Master, you mean that if I don't have a prince with the queen this year, there will be no more princes in the future?"
"That's right, if you miss this year, you will really have no children."
Song Renzong said with an obscure expression: "It seems that this is destined."
"Official, you don't have to accept this fate."
Song Renzong smiled bitterly: "Master, I have to accept this fate." He cannot live without a prince.
"Since the official family is willing to accept this fate, don't worry about it anymore." Master Kong Jing comforted, "The official family, once it comes, it will be safe."
"The master is right, if you come, you will be safe." Childlessness is more serious than foreign relatives dominating the government.In the future, he will teach the prince well, let him beware of the Cao family, and not let the Cao family maintain the government.
The scene in the dream changed again, this was more than two years ago, before Master Kong Jing practiced in seclusion.
"Master, I'm glad I listened to your words." Song Renzong said happily, "I like the prince very much."
"Official, your spirit has improved a lot."
"Yeah, since Yang Yang was born, I seem to be full of energy, and I feel like I'm much younger." With a son, I have confidence. "Fortunately, I listened to your words a year ago."
"Official family, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the direct son of you and the empress, destined to be born extraordinary."
"Are you born extraordinary?" Song Renzong smiled, "According to Master's auspicious words."
At this time, the situation in the dream changed again.
"Why did the officials come to Xiangguo Temple at this time?"
"Master Kongjing?" Song Renzong was a little confused, was he dreaming, or...
"Why did the officials come to find the old monk in the dream?"
"I came to look for you in my dream?" Sure enough, I was dreaming, "I came to thank Master."
"Official, this is the choice you made at the beginning, so you don't need to thank me again and again."
"Master, do you know what I want to thank you for?"
Master Kong Jing smiled at Song Renzong with deep meaning: "The official family, you should thank the empress empress most, she gave birth to your highness the crown prince."
Song Renzong laughed and said: "Master is indeed a master, I guess what I want to say." After speaking, he slightly sighed, "Master is right, I should thank the queen most."
"Since the officials know, there is no need for me to say anything."
As soon as Master Kong Jing finished speaking, Song Renzong woke up from his dream.At this time, it was just dawn.
Dream?
What a dream.
Song Renzong just woke up, he was still a little confused, and he hadn't recovered yet.Suddenly he heard the sound of shallow breathing coming from his ear, he looked over and saw his son lying on the bed, with a pair of calves pressing on his stomach.
How did this child sleep, how did he sleep himself horizontally?
Song Renzong sat up, gently picked up his son, and then put him flat on the bed.
Zhao Yang slept very deeply and was not awakened by Song Renzong.
Song Renzong lay on his side on the bed, propped his face with his hands, and looked at his son lovingly and lovingly.
I was really coaxed to sleep by Yang Yang, and I was really coaxed by Yang Yang so that I didn't have nightmares.
He stretched out his hand and gently poked his son's soft little face, "It's really my little lucky star."
Zhao Yang turned over and rolled into Song Renzong's arms, unconsciously grasping the clothes on his father's chest with both hands.
Seeing his son sleeping in his arms obediently, Song Renzong's heart was about to melt.Immediately, he thought of what his son said to him last night, and his face immediately turned cold.
At this moment, Zhang Maoshi came in quietly and called out in a low voice, "Official?"
Song Renzong sat up, carefully tucked the corners of the quilt for Zhao Yang, and then lifted the curtain and got out of bed.
"Has the interrogation come out?"
"The interrogation is out."
Song Renzong nodded and didn't speak any more. He opened his hands and asked Zhang Maoshi to change his clothes.
After changing his clothes, Song Renzong was afraid of waking his son, so he turned around and went to the side hall to wash up.
After Song Renzong finished washing, Zhang Maoshi told him the results of the interrogation last night.
"Yan Xiu and the others said that they were instructed by Zhang Yaozuo to deliberately pretend to be a rebellion, and then let them..." At this point, Zhang Maoshi did not dare to continue.
"What more?" Song Renzong had already guessed.
"Let Zhang Meiren bring someone to rescue the official's family, then Zhang Meiren will be able to serve as escort..."
With a snap, Song Renzong slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground.
Zhang Maoshi and Liang Yin were so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground.
Song Renzong's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were full of anger.
Zhang Maoshi raised his head and said cautiously: "Guanjia, there is one more thing."
"Say!"
"According to Yan Xiu and the four of them, Zhang Yaozuo made friends with the imperial guards everywhere, and spread rumors everywhere, saying that Zhang Meiren will definitely give birth to a prince for the official family. At that time, the official family will depose the prince and make the prince born by Zhang Meiren the crown prince. Prince."
"Zhang! Yao! Zuo!" Song Renzong was so angry that his expression became distorted, "Put Zhang Yaozuo in prison."
"Yes, the official family." Zhang Maoshi asked, "How should Yan Xiu and the others deal with the official family?"
"Put them in prison together."
"Yes, official."
Song Renzong was so angry that even breakfast was useless, so he went directly to the morning court.
Before the early court ended, word spread in the palace that Zhang Yaozuo was imprisoned.
In Kunning Palace, Empress Cao and Miao Zhaorong had just finished their breakfast.
Last night, both of them went to bed late.Today, I woke up late in the morning.
"Mother, why was Zhang Yaozuo imprisoned?" Miao Zhaorong said with a look of surprise, "Didn't the official just promote him some time ago?"
"It should have done something." Empress Cao probably guessed what was going on in her heart, but she still had doubts.Only by waiting for his son to return from Funing Palace can he know what happened.
"Although I don't know what happened, Zhang Yaozuo's imprisonment is really a relief." Although Empress Cao told Miao Zhaorong not to care about Zhang Meiren's affairs, Miao Zhaorong still couldn't understand Zhang Meiren.Seeing that Zhang Meiren's uncle was imprisoned unfortunately, she felt very relieved and very happy.
"You..." Empress Cao smiled helplessly, "In the future, you should be more polite to Zhang Meiren in front of the officials. After all, she is pregnant now. If anything happens to her, she will be the first to frame you."
"She dares!" Miao Zhaorong said angrily, "Even if she framed me, the officials would not believe it."
"It's not that you don't know that she is used to fanning the flames. Even if the officials believe you, but she often tells you that you are wrong in front of the officials, the officials may really believe her words and doubt you." Empress Cao said this, not for To scare Miao Zhaorong, but to make Miao Zhaorong pay attention in the future.
"The official family and I have been in friendship since childhood. If the official family listens to Zhang Meiren's words, then I..." Miao Zhaorong's eyes suddenly turned red, and tears glistened in them.
Empress Cao didn't expect to make Miao Zhaorong cry, so she quickly comforted her: "I'm talking nonsense, the official family grew up with you, and I will never be provoked by Zhang Meiren to disbelieve you."
Miao Zhaorong realized that she had lost her composure, and hurriedly put away her tears, and changed the subject to talk about Zhao Yang.
"I wonder if His Royal Highness is awake?"
"I slept late last night, so I guess he hasn't woken up yet."
"Such a thrilling and frightening thing happened last night, and I don't know if His Royal Highness was frightened, did he have any nightmares last night?" The more Miao Zhaorong said, the more worried he was about Zhao Yang.
"With the officials here, Yang Yang will be fine. Don't worry." Empress Cao thought that they didn't sleep well last night, so she said softly to Miao Zhaorong, "You can go back later and have a good sleep."
"I blamed me for talking too much last night, so that you didn't sleep well." After returning to Kunning Palace last night, Miao Zhaorong stayed directly in Kunning Palace, sleeping on the same bed with Empress Cao, and kept saying Regarding the matter of the rebellion, I didn't sleep until Yinshichu. "Your Majesty, you should catch up on sleep later."
"I'll wait for Yang Yang to come back." Empress Cao said with a smile, "I'll sleep in the afternoon."
"Then I'll go back first."
"Get a good night's sleep."
In Mingluan Pavilion, Zhang Meiren is still sleeping, not waking up.
Ju Bai didn't dare to wake up Beauty Zhang.He planned to wait for Zhang Meiren to wake up, and then tell her about Zhang Yaozuo's imprisonment.
When the lady wakes up and finds out about this, she is afraid that she will be irritated again. What should she do if she gets pregnant.However, this matter has to be told to the wife.
In Funing Palace, Zhao Yang didn't wake up until Sishi.
Song Renzong just went down to court a moment before he woke up, and when he saw him awake, he took him to have breakfast.
"Dad, didn't you have breakfast?"
"No, Daddy is waiting to have breakfast with you." Song Renzong peeled an egg for Zhao Yang himself, and then fed it to his mouth.
Zhao Yang opened his mouth and took a big bite, and began to eat happily.
Seeing his son eating well, Song Renzong, who had no appetite before, gained some appetite.
Zhao Yang is three years old, and he can eat by himself long ago, without Song Renzong feeding himself.However, Song Renzong still feeds his son himself every time he eats with him.Zhao Yang had no choice but to let Song Renzong feed him.
After feeding his son and finishing his breakfast, Song Renzong fed Zhao Yang goat milk.
The goat milk that Zhao Yang drank was boiled, and there were many things in it, such as black sesame seeds, walnuts, almonds and the like.It tastes like this without any smell.
Song Renzong originally objected to his son drinking goat milk, but later saw that his son drank goat milk in good health, so he stopped objecting.
From birth to now, although Zhao Yang has suffered from wind and cold, he has never had a fever.The number of times he suffered from wind and cold was also very rare. In the past three years, the number of times he suffered from wind and cold did not exceed five times, and each time he recovered within a few days.
After breakfast, the father and son went to Kunning Palace hand in hand.
As soon as Song Renzong arrived at Kunning Palace on his front foot, Beauty Zhang came to Funing Palace on his back foot.
Zhang Meiren woke up and learned that her uncle was imprisoned, so anxious that she didn't even have breakfast, so she hurried to Funing Palace.Knowing that Song Renzong had gone to Kunning Palace, he was very resentful, and hurried to Kunning Palace again.
Empress Cao first saluted Song Renzong, and then waved to her son.
Zhao Yang obediently walked in front of Empress Cao, and smiled obediently at his lady: "Madam, I slept well last night, and I didn't have any nightmares."
Empress Cao looked her son up and down, and felt relieved when she saw that his son was in good spirits.
"That's good." After finishing speaking, she asked Song Renzong with concern, "Guan, did you sleep well last night?"
"Thanks to Yang Yang, I did a good job last night." Song Renzong told Empress Cao about Zhao Yang coaxing him to sleep.
Zhao Yang patted his small chest, and said with a proud face: "With me here, Daddy won't have nightmares."
Song Renzong picked up his son and rubbed his little face.
"Yang Yang is Daddy's little lucky star, with Yang Yang here, Daddy will be fine."
Empress Cao saw that Song Renzong loved Zhao Yang as much as before, and the boulder that had been hanging on her heart since last night could finally fall.It seems that the officials did not suspect Yang Yang.
Zhao Yang raised his hand and patted Song Renzong's shoulder, and said to his father in the tone of a kid: "Don't worry, Dad, I will protect you."
This sentence made Song Renzong's heart tremble violently. He lowered his head and rubbed his son's little nose, and said with a smile: "Yang Yang is really Daddy!"
