Rebirth of Glory and Splendour

Chapter 27: Gentleness

Wei Chongrong couldn't see Wei Zhao's sullen expression, and tried to make him happy, but Wei Zhao's mood was waning and he didn't want to pay attention to him at all.

"Dad, why don't you say something!" Since that day, when Princess Yuankang sent someone to take him into the palace, Wei Chongrong followed Wei Zhao to live in Yongfu Palace, his former residence in the palace.

Yongfu Palace is located on the right side of Weiyang Palace and belongs to the Sixth East Palace. According to the original plan, the East Sixth Palace was the residence of the princes and servants of the third grade and above. Correspondingly, the West Sixth Palace was the residence of the concubines and concubines of the third grade and above.

But in fact, Yongshou Palace and Yongfu Palace, which are closest to Zichen Palace and Weiyang Palace, often become the temporary residences of various princes in the palace, such as King Yong in the reign of Taizong, King Changning in the reign of Sejong, and Qi in the reign of Xianzong. king.

Wei Zhao glanced at him lazily, and said calmly, "Go out and play, don't bother me!" The old guys in Zongzheng Temple don't do business every day, so they can't get along with him. Even the emperor supports them, Wei Zhaoyue Think more and more resentful.

Knowing that Wei Zhao was still thinking about his name, Wei Chongrong shook his arm coquettishly and said, "But no one plays with me."

Compared with Fuyu's palace, Dayan's palace is many times bigger, but Wei Zhao's Yongfu Palace alone can directly crush the opponent. It's just that Wei Chongrong doesn't know most of the people in the palace, and he is very boring when he has business affairs.

Wei Zhao probably also felt that his attitude towards his son was a little fierce, so he sat up from the soft couch and said softly, "Rong'er, where do you want to play?"

Wei Chongrong was not very able to accept the title "Rong'er", but Wei Zhao didn't like the word "Chong", and it felt weird to call "A Rong", so he had to accept it reluctantly. He looked at Wei Zhao and asked : "Dad, can we go out of the palace?"

Hearing that his son wanted to leave the palace, Wei Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Rong'er, do you want to go out to play, or do you want to live outside the palace?"

Wei Chongrong's eyes widened in surprise. He didn't expect that there were two ways to interpret this sentence, which greatly exceeded his expectations, so he said, "Dad, I want to go out of the palace to play, and I also want to live outside the palace."

In his previous life, Wei Chongrong spent most of his life in the palace, leaving behind only some bad memories. If it is possible, he certainly doesn't want to live in the palace, even if Wei Zhao's Yongfu Palace is more expensive than he used to live. The place I've passed is much more refined and gorgeous.

Wei Zhao thought for a while and affirmed: "Rong'er, if you want to go out to play, we can leave now, but if you want to go out and live, it is estimated that you will have to wait for a while. I will go back to the palace later and ask my mother. , When will my mansion be cleaned up?"

"Eh?!" Wei Chongrong was stunned, he just asked casually, he didn't think that Wei Zhao would really have plans to leave the palace, and he didn't say that he didn't have a mansion outside the palace, why did he suddenly have it again.

Wei Zhao didn't look at Wei Chongrong's shocked expression at all, and continued: "Before the expedition to Fuyu, my father asked the people from the Ministry of Industry to build the palace for me. When I return, I will be able to take over."

"Just a vassal?!" Wei Chongrong couldn't keep up with Wei Zhao's train of thought. It's not like he didn't know the rules of the prince's vassal.

For the prince of Dayan, being a vassal is both a good thing and a bad thing. The advantage of this is that your personal safety is guaranteed from now on, but the disadvantage is that you are far away from the political center of Dayan, and you can only be a rich man who lives happily.

You must know that Dayan's princes and county kings cannot interfere with the political power and military power of the fiefs. The only thing they can enjoy is the taxes of the fiefs. There is no difference between living in the capital or the fiefs. However, Emperor Taizu once made it clear that unless the prince served in the court, after Yuanfu and before marriage, he must be a vassal, and he must not violate it.

Wei Zhao joined the army as a young man and wanted to make achievements and careers, and he and Helianzhuo still had unresolved grievances. How could he go to the vassal and give up his future and hatred.

Seeing Wei Chongrong stunned, Wei Zhao couldn't help laughing and teasing him: "Rong'er, what did you think of, you're so scared?"

Wei Chongrong didn't dare to say what he thought, so he hurriedly asked, "Dad, where are we going?" As soon as he finished speaking, he wanted to scold himself for being an idiot. Wei Zhao can go wherever he can. He is the King of Qin, and his The fiefs directly surrounded Yujing, okay?

Nearly three hundred years after the founding of Dayan, only two princes' fiefdoms were near the key areas of Gyeonggi. One was the only son of the founding emperor Wei Lu and Empress Xiaolie Gao, King Yong Wei Yin. In the two dynasties of Taizu and Taizong, King Yong's power was overwhelming and unstoppable. After his death, he was buried in Zhaoling with infinite sorrow and glory.

The other one is Wei Zhao. Just by looking at how much the current prince loves him, one can imagine his future power, which will never be inferior to that of the former king Yong. After all, Emperor Taizong and King Yong were the sons of the two empresses, while Wei Ming and Wei Zhao were brothers.

Looking at Wei Chongrong's annoyed expression with satisfaction, Wei Zhao in a good mood smiled and said, "Where can we go, Daddy's palace is in Shangguan. If we have time, we can go and see it later."

Wei Chongrong puffed out his cheeks unhappily, thinking what kind of habit Wei Zhao is, to play with his son when he has nothing to do, is it fun?

Wei Zhao asked someone to say hello to the queen, and he took Wei Chongrong out of the palace. They traveled in micro-clothing, and they didn't even bring a servant with them, which made Wei Chongrong, who was not used to being followed, feel better.

"Daddy, where are you taking me to play?" Holding a bunch of candied haws that Wei Zhao forcibly stuffed in his hand, Wei Chongrong had nothing to say. He has lived in Yujing for nearly 20 years, how could he not see it? , Wei Zhao took him along the road to the Zhaoyang Houfu.

Wei Zhao was not as reserved as his son. He swallowed the string of candied haws in his hand, clapped his hands and replied, "Let's go to Zhaoyang Hou's mansion to see Qing'er."

Wei Chongrong nodded clearly. From the time they entered Beijing, they heard that Junqing was not in good health, and Wei Zhao also said that he wanted to see him, but when he lived in the palace of Changning for half a month, Wei Zhao never went out at all. After Wei Zhao returned to the palace, he was seriously ill and almost died. Junqing didn't even go to the palace to see him. If it weren't for his serious illness, it seemed a little unreasonable based on his friendship with Wei Zhao, but looking at Wei Zhao's face The expression on his face was completely worry-free, and Wei Chongrong couldn't understand it.

The two walked not far, and Wei Zhao took a fancy to Wuweizhai's crispy candy again. He asked Wei Chongrong: "Rong'er, the crispy candy in this store is very delicious. Let's buy some and try it?" Waiting for Wei Chongrong to answer, he went straight to the line.

Wei Chongrong took the candied haws that he managed to eat, and his expression was about to collapse. Who can tell him why Wei Zhao has such a soft spot for sweets? He doesn't like sweets at all, is it sweet? Tired again, uncomfortable to die.

Wei Zhao came back after buying the crispy candy, and saw that Wei Chongrong only ate one of the candied haws, and glanced at him unhappily. Wei Chongrong blinked and said aggrieved: "Daddy, my tooth hurts, I don't want to eat candy anymore."

Wei Zhao didn't speak, he stretched out his hand to take the candied haws from Wei Chongrong's hand and helped him eat it. So Wei Chongrong thought that when Wei Zhao was a child, in order to save his teeth, the emperor and the empress must have had a headache, and it was really difficult for him in Fuyu these years.

Zhaoyang Hou's Mansion is adjacent to the Imperial City, not far from the Baihu Gate. The location is quite good, and it is not far from the Changning Prince's Mansion. Because of Junhua, Wei Chongrong had been to the Hou Mansion several times before, so he was no stranger to this.

Revisiting the old place, looking at the beauty, except for the restrictions of the ritual system, it is no worse than the Zhaoyang Houfu in the palace. Wei Chongrong must admit that Wei Su's preference for King's Landing is far beyond human beings. Wei Ming and Wei Zhao are not necessarily comparable to him.

In addition to the four princes and eight dukes at the founding of the country, in the Dayan Dynasty, the highest title that can be obtained by military merit is the marquis. However, there are also differences in the number of food towns for the same marquis. The fewest are only a few hundred households.

When Jun Lin was alive, the food towns of the Marquis of Zhaoyang grew from 800 households at the beginning, and finally reached 23,000 households. Unfortunately, Jun Lin died of illness. His only son, Jun Qing, was only three years old. Wei Su transferred all his love for Jun Lin to Jun Qing.

I will not talk about raising him with Wei Zhao since he was a child. Wei Susheng was afraid of wronging Junqing in money and money, so he kept finding various reasons to seal him. An astonishing 30,000 households have never been seen since the founding of Dayan.

Wei Chongrong knew very well that this was not the most prosperous time of the Jun family. Before Wei Su died, Junqing's only son Junhua was not yet eight years old. , and also warned Weiyang not to reduce the number of food towns in the Jun family for any reason.

Wei Yang has always held a grudge against Jun Hua, and these cannot but be said to be the reasons. Wei Chongrong followed Wei Zhao inside while recalling the past. He was so absorbed that he didn't even notice when he stopped.

Suddenly, he felt someone push his shoulders, and suddenly raised his head, he saw Wei Zhao staring at him, and said, "Rong'er, haven't seen Zhaoyang Marquis yet?"

Wei Chongrong turned around and saw a face that was somewhat similar to the Junhua in his memory, but more indifferent than him, and hurriedly said, "I have seen the Marquis of Zhaoyang." According to his seniority, he should call Junqian affectionate. Cousin's, but Wei Zhao didn't say it, so he didn't know.

Junqing nodded slightly, then turned to Wei Zhao and said, "It's not like you, and your eyes are very different." Wei Zhao looked up at the sky without a word, and turned out a large part of the whites of his eyes to face Junqing.

Wei Chongrong said hello and took his eyes back, otherwise he would always look up and his neck would be very tired. With Wei Chongrong's current height, he looked up and saw the waist and abdomen of Wei Zhao and others, and he felt in a trance that something was wrong.

Taking a closer look, he suddenly realized that what was wrong was Junqing's belly, which seemed to bulge slightly, which was not commensurate with his tall and slender body. Besides, Junhua should also be in his mother's belly. .

What Wei Chongrong didn't expect was that Junhua's so-called mother was unknown, but his father should be unknown, because he was born by Junqing himself.

Although the holy family is rich, it is a pity that the father and son of the Jun family are not long-lived people. When Jun Linying died young, he was only twenty-four years old. When Jun Qing died in the battle of Youzhou, he was only twenty-five years old, leaving only a gentleman. Hua, at a younger age than Junqing, became an orphan.

In the previous life, Junhua had been raised by Wei Su since he was two years old. At first, because of King's Landing and King's affection, Wei Su loved him as much as his own children and grandchildren.

In the forty-ninth year of Yongjia, the witch-gu incident broke out and brought disaster to the East Palace. In order to protect himself, Wei Ming had to raise troops to resist. Princess Yuankang and Ji Xin, the king of Changning, also participated in the incident.

In the second year, Ji Xin died in battle, the prince was defeated and committed suicide, Princess Yuankang committed suicide, and the prince, Neijun, three sons and one daughter were all killed.

When the queen heard the news, she committed suicide, the emperor was furious, and seized the titles of King Changning, Duke of Song, and Marquis of Yichun. For a time, the blood flowed into rivers in Yujing City, which was worse than the previous military disaster.

Junhua was only four years old at the time, and was raised in the palace, so he was not involved in this matter. In less than a year, Wei Su suddenly came to his senses and realized that he had wronged the prince and ordered himself to commit crimes, but the prince and Princess Yuankang's family were not spared.

Wei Su and Empress Ji have been married for nearly 50 years and have two sons and three daughters together. The eldest son, Wei Ming, and the eldest daughter, Princess Yuankang, both died of witchcraft; the second son, Wei Zhao, was held captive by Fuyu for many years and then committed suicide; the second daughter, Princess Suining, died for Jun Lin after he died of illness; the youngest daughter, Princess Gaochang, and her relative Wusun, Since then, the two countries have had a bad relationship, and there has been no news. In addition, Ji Xin had no heirs when he died in battle, which meant that the Ji family, who had made great contributions to the Wei royal family, only had a trace of Junhua blood.

In fact, Wei Chongrong, who was brought back to Yujing by Luming, is also a descendant of Ji's family, but Wei Su doesn't like him, let alone see him. So, he compensated Jun Hua for all his apologies to the prince and the Ji family, even better to him than to Wei Yang.

When Weiyang changed his life, his biological mother, the Empress Dowager Zhao, passed away. Although the medical records of the Taiyuan Hospital seem to be flawless, Weiyang firmly believes that his mother was killed by someone, but Wan Chunchang, who went to the palace to raise him The princess was related to the Shangguan family he suspected.

Weiyang didn't believe anyone except Wei Chongrong and Junhua, because they, like him, had no relatives in this world. Wei Chongrong was very kind to Wei Yang at that time, and he was very kind. Junhua occasionally reminded him that he thought he was too small and too busy.

Later facts proved that Junhua's reserved attitude towards Wei Yang was right. People like Wei Yang are not suitable for deep friendship with others. It is best to be distant, just like he has always disliked Junhua, but the relationship between the two maintains a delicate balance.

On the contrary, it was Wei Chongrong, who was too good to Wei Yang, too good to go beyond the bounds. It's not that Wei Yang can't believe Wei Chongrong, he doesn't allow himself to have any weaknesses, Wei Chongrong knows him too well, he is afraid, scared to death, so Wei Chongrong must die.

Wei Yang watched Wei Chongrong drank the poison and left, and no one else dared to come in. Wei Chongrong was lying on the cold marble floor, smiling sarcastically. He felt that his life was a complete joke. He was a superfluous existence and no one needed him.

Jun Hua came in at this time. There is something wrong with his right leg. If he walks fast, it will go up and down. Therefore, he is usually very careful and will try to walk slowly so that no one can see his leg. exception comes.

But that day, Jun Hua walked very fast and his right leg was obviously lame. He obviously didn't care, he just wanted to walk in front of Wei Chongrong as soon as possible.

At that time, Wei Chongrong's vision was already very blurred, but he could still clearly see that Junhua looked at his expression and was so sad that he couldn't add more.

Junhua said something to him, but Wei Chongrong couldn't hear it clearly, but he was still very happy, because before he died, there was someone who was willing to be sad for him.

After Wei Chongrong finished thinking about it, he reached out to touch Junqing's belly. Anyway, he was still a child, so no one would say that he was rude.

Unexpectedly, Junqing is a person who doesn't like to have physical contact with people. As soon as Wei Chongrong's hand touched, he unconsciously stepped back, his movements were agile, and he didn't look like a pregnant person at all.
