Rebirth of Glory and Splendour

Chapter 87: false alarm

Although the road was bumpy, Junhua was nestled in Wei Chongrong's arms, but he slept very sweetly and was not affected at all. Dongfang couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He was about to laugh out loud when Wei Chongrong, who was aware of the movement, turned around and glared, and immediately fell silent.

From the moment he got the news of the empress dowager's death, Wei Chongrong never dared to delay any time on the road. Even so, when he rushed back to Yujing, it was still the seventh day of the Queen Mother's death, and it was also the last day of the first seven.

Wei Chongrong did not return to the palace, but took Junhua directly into the palace. Although Jun Hua took the surname of Jun, Ji Xin was the grand-nephew of the Empress Dowager. King Changning guarded the southwest and could not return to the capital. As a son, he rushed back, and it was unreasonable not to enter the palace and cry.

The Queen Mother stopped at the Cihe Hall of the Primate Changle Palace. When Wei Chongrong and Junhua arrived, many people in the hall were already kneeling and crying. These are the princes, grandsons, and relatives of the royal family. According to Dayan's funeral rules, they must cry for seven days without making any mistakes.

The imperial court officials and Mrs. Gao Ming in Beijing kneeling outside the Cihe Hall were also crying. It may be because of the hard work for several days. No matter inside or outside the hall, the crying voice was very low, but it was just a low whimper, look. Everyone is tired.

Having experienced the funeral of the late emperor, Wei Chongrong knew very well what to do next. With grief on his face, he howled all the way, "Grandmother, grandson is not filial, grandson is late, I couldn't send you the last ride" and rushed straight into the Hall of Mercy.

Because of the loud voice, everyone present turned their heads unconsciously and cast their eyes on Wei Chongrong. When Jun Hua saw this battle, he did not follow Wei Chongrong into the hall, but quietly touched Xie Qiu's side and knelt down silently.

Wei Chongrong didn't care about people's eyes. He stepped over the threshold and knelt down with a "thump", and moved his knees to Wei Zhao's side, crying while moving: "Grandma, the unfilial grandson is back!" Buried deep, no one could see his expression at this time.

The place where Wei Lan knelt was not far from Wei Chongrong, it was impossible not to see the movement he made. He didn't turn his head, he just murmured in his heart, it doesn't matter if you can't come back, anyway, in the heart of the imperial grandmother, you never Not even her grandson.

It's just that Wei Lan thinks this way, but others don't, especially the civil and military officials kneeling outside. They only think that the Prince of Qin is pure and filial, and he is thousands of miles away, so he just rushed back from Qingjia. Catch up with the Queen Mother's first seven.

Wei Chongrong has never been a temperament to show his feelings. The two voices that he cried before were also brewed for a long time in advance. After kneeling beside Wei Zhao, he quieted down and only glanced at Wei Zhao from time to time, seeing that he was pale. His face was very worried.

The rule of crying for seven days is indeed quite cruel. After Wei Chongrong knelt down for a while, he heard a commotion outside the hall. It turned out that Mrs. Gu of the Duke of Qi's mansion could not hold on to it and fainted and was carried out. , and she is not the first.

Wei Chongrong stayed awake for three days and three nights, and he was so tired that he felt a little sleepy after kneeling for more than an hour. It's just that how can he do something rude at a time like this, he didn't want to be accused of losing his manners in front of the spirit, so he pinched his fingertips hard.

The severe pain stimulated people's nerves, and Wei Chongrong instantly woke up and knelt straight.

Wei Zhao glanced at him sideways, and threw a small bottle over. Wei Chongrong picked it up and opened it to smell it. It smelled of ginseng, and it turned out to be Snow Ginseng Pills. He got a pill in his hand, stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it, feeling much better.

Wei Chongrong blinked at Wei Zhao, searched around for Junhua's whereabouts, and planned to give him one too, only to find that he did not enter the hall at all, so he had to give up. However, Junhua slept on the road, and only kneeling for one day should be no problem.

The so-called cry for seven days is not really about kneeling for seven days and seven nights without resting in between. If that is the case, it is Wei Chongrong who has practiced martial arts since he was a child. A dead hoot.

The crying spirit only kneels during the day, and can still rest in the middle. Like the princess who is pregnant, the queen ordered her to only kneel for one hour a day, or to do it separately in the morning and afternoon. If you feel unwell, it doesn’t matter if you kneel for less than an hour.

As noon approached, Wei Zhao took Wei Chongrong to the side hall of Cihe Hall, and at the same time ordered someone to bring Junhua over as well.

Wei Chongrong looked at Wei Zhao with a tired face, and hurriedly asked, "Dad, are you feeling any discomfort? If so, don't force it."

Wei Zhao waved his hand and signaled that it would be okay: "It's okay, don't make a fuss. Look outside, which one is not a dishonest." It is not easy for anyone to stand up for a national mourning cry, not to mention the Queen Mother Yu Wei Zhao, The meaning is completely different from others.

Wei Chongrong knew that it was not appropriate to talk too much here, so he didn't say anything. He buried his head and started cooking.

"I have seen His Royal Highness King Qin." Jun Hua was inexplicably shy when he saw Wei Zhao.

Because Junqing and Wei Zhao have always been close friends, before Junhua left Yujing to go to Yao An, Wei Zhao was one of the people who loved him the most. When Junhua met Wei Zhao before, he always acted coquettishly and never felt uncomfortable. King Qin was much better at talking than his father.

However, after being apart for many years, the two were a little unfamiliar, and the relationship between him and Wei Chongrong was different from before. Moreover, Wei Chongrong wrote to Wei Zhao to tell them about their affairs, but when the prince and the queen mother died one after another, Wei Zhao had no time to answer.

Although Junhua felt that for his father's sake, Wei Zhao should not oppose him and Wei Chongrong, but he was still a little uneasy when he didn't get a positive answer.

Jun Hua's appearance is cool and Xiao Junqing, Wei Zhao is not surprised to see him, he said that when he grows up, let him hurry up to have lunch, and continue to cry in the afternoon. .

After lunch, Wei Zhao and Wei Chongrong returned to the front hall. Junhua did not follow them, but went outside the hall.

For some reason, Wei Chongrong suddenly had a very bad feeling, and he couldn't tell what was wrong. It's the last half day, don't let anything happen, Wei Chongrong read silently, and knelt down next to Wei Ruo.

Seeing his frowning, Wei Ruo asked in a low voice, "Brother Rong, do you also think something is wrong?"

Wei Chongrong kept calling his bosom friend, nodded and said, "What? You feel it too?"

Wei Ruo nodded lightly: "I noticed it two days ago, but I looked closely and couldn't see anything."

Wei Chongrong hurriedly asked, "What have you noticed? Let's hear it..." He was afraid of dying his intuition. He was often a good spirit but not a bad spirit. Now it's a troubled time, and he really wants to come up with something else. Well, his father worked hard.

Wei Ruo was about to speak when he saw some small movements from the female family. He looked up and saw that it was the Crown Princess who came out.

Wei Chongrong said in surprise: "Does the Crown Princess cry too?" She had two national mournings as soon as she became pregnant. The front was her husband who had been loving for many years, and the latter was the Queen Mother who loved her. Xie Xiangruo walked away in grief. If she doesn't come out, her child is in danger.

Wei Ruo said solemnly, "The Queen has decreed that she will only come for one hour a day."

child…

Wei Chongrong's light flashed, and he suddenly remembered what Wei Yang had said.

"Empress, it was the poisonous woman of the queen, otherwise, why didn't I have a child in my harem?" After the four-month-pregnant Concubine Shu had a miscarriage for no reason, Wei Yang roared in the imperial study for half a day. The third time.

"But Your Majesty, the imperial doctor has seen Concubine Shu's pulse and said yes..." Shangguanyan didn't want someone to rush to give birth to a prince before her. Wei Chongrong can understand, but every time a concubine in the harem had a miscarriage, the imperial doctor said it after reading it. It's the pregnant woman's problem, not the victim.

Wei Yang snorted coldly and said with a sneer: "She is Shangguan Xiang's granddaughter, and she has one or two recipes that the imperial physician can't see. It's not surprising at all... Poisonous woman, I want to abolish her, I want her to give it to me. My prince pays for his life..."

At that time, Wei Yang already had a certain amount of power in his hands, but Shangguan Yan really had no trace of it. Wei Yang said that she was going to abolish the queen, but she could not find the slightest charge of murdering the emperor's heir. Instead, she was a pregnant concubine. The concubine herself did not follow the doctor's orders, which led to the loss of the dragon's fetus.

Shangguan Yan is the granddaughter of Shangguan Xiang, and so is Shangguan Yan, Wei Chongrong couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat thinking of this.

He leaned into Wei Ruo's ear and asked in a low voice, "Has your father checked the pulse of the Crown Princess?" It was the formula left by Shangguan Xiang, and the imperial doctor in the palace certainly couldn't see any clues. It was Sun Ye who came out in person. It's not like you can see the problem.

Wei Ruo shook his head, and the expression on his face became a little weird: "My father, like my master, specializes in intractable diseases, there are imperial doctors in the palace who are proficient in obstetrics and gynecology, and the prince's fetus is also very stable, so His Majesty did not call him to the prince. Concubine, please pulse."

Sun Ye hadn't seen it. Wouldn't it be easier for Shangguan Hua to start? Wei Chongrong glanced sideways at Xie Xiang, and she knelt next to Shangguan Qi.

Wei Ruo didn't doubt anyone, but Wei Chongrong's words reminded him what the strangeness he noticed was that the Cihe Hall's vinegar smell was too strong. He frowned and thought for a while, moved quietly to Xie Xiang's side, and said a few words in his ears.

Not long after, Xie Xiang said that he was not feeling well and left the Cihe Hall ahead of schedule. Wei Ruo quietly moved back and moved to Sun Ye's side. Soon after, Sun Ye also resigned, and Wei Zhao watched all this silently without saying a word.

That night, after the curfew, a figure sneaked into the wall of the Qin Wangfu.

Before he could make any move, he was picked up by Jun Hua who was waiting here: "Who is coming, sign up and come!"

The person who came hurriedly made a silent action: "Shh! It's me, keep your voice down!"

Junhua still didn't let him go, but shook his head and said, "Who are you? I don't know you..."

The man had no choice but to introduce himself first: "I'm Wei Ruo."

Jun Hua understood and let go of his hand: "It's you, come with me."

Wei Ruo got up from the ground, rubbed his nose, and followed Jun Hua to Wei Zhao's study.
