In the morning, Emperor Yan Ping finished handling today's political affairs and prepared to retreat. Zongzheng Li Wei, who rarely spoke in court meetings, suddenly said: "Your Majesty, yesterday I listened to the imperial doctor's order and said that King Jin's body is getting heavier and heavier, and I'm afraid he won't be able to wait until the new year. And King Jin is already twenty this year. Fifth, there is no official concubine so far, so I thought that I should marry him to celebrate his happiness."
For a moment, the court and the public were silent, and everyone was silent and did not dare to speak. Emperor Yan Ping sat on the dragon throne. There is also no joy or anger. After a long time, only Zeng Liangzuo, the imperial censor, spoke up: "Your Majesty, I think Zong Zheng's words are very reasonable, and so it should be. King Jin has been guarding the country's borders for many years, and has made great achievements several times. Today, he was assassinated by Xiao Xiao. There is not much time left, so this act of joy is inevitable and necessary. Please give me your permission.”
The consort Yang Zhuming also stood up and said, “Please give me the decree to select a concubine for the King of Jin.”
"Accurate performance."
Ten days later, Emperor Yan Ping met in the court hall with Wei Guangdu and his son and Zhendong General He Ze who had come from afar. The eunuch Gao Shihe held the imperial edict in his hand and read out: "The Holy Edict: I govern the world with letters and fight chaos with force. The military commanders and generals are the mainstay of the imperial court and the stronghold of the country. They are able to do both civil and military affairs and serve with all their strength. Is it possible to ignore his achievements and not praise him for his favor? The Jin Dynasty appointed Wei Guangdu, the prefect of Dingyun, as the minister of the Ministry of War. His son Wei Chongxin was loyal, filial and brave, and he was promoted to General Zhonglang of the Imperial Army. He was granted the title of General of the Conquest of the East and commanded the Hu Ben Army."
The three of them took the order to express their gratitude, so they did not mention it.
Suddenly Emperor Yan Ping said: "I heard that Wei Aiqing has two daughters. I wonder if they are married to someone else?"
Wei Guangdu didn't know why Emperor Yan Ping suddenly mentioned this issue. , but deceiving the emperor will cause you to lose your head, so he replied honestly: "I have not promised to marry anyone yet. I have already promised that my daughter will choose her future husband."
Wei Guanglu said at this time: "Marriage is an important matter, which is the order of the parents. It is the matchmaker's choice. How can this be appropriate?"
Just as Wei Guangdu was about to refute, Emperor Yan Ping interrupted and said: "I have a son who has not yet been married. , I want to be an in-law with Wei Qing, I wonder what Wei Qing wants?"
For many people, the emperor's in-law is a rare and rare event, but Wei Guangdu doesn't want to let himself have it. His daughter married into the royal family. After all, there was intrigue among the royal family, and the outcome for the loser was usually not very pleasant. < /p>
"This..."
"Retreat from the court."
After Emperor Yan Ping left, everyone exited the hall one by one, leaving only Wei Guangdu who had no time to refuse. Father and son.
"Dad, let's go back and think of a solution first."
Wei Guangdu felt quite depressed. He didn't even say who he was going to marry, so he just retired from the court?
The Wei family also has many properties in Kyoto. The place where they live now is the Wei family's mansion in Kyoto. After returning home, Wei Guangdu summoned Wei Haohao and Wei Liu with some depression.
This Liu family was smart. After learning that the Yeluo tribe had withdrawn its troops and that Wei Guangdu and his son had returned to the capital to receive rewards, they had been waiting on the official road until they arrived. Wei Guangdu had no choice but to abandon them in the wilderness, so he could only bring them to the capital with him.
Wei Guangdu told them the cause and effect of the matter, and then asked them for their opinions.
Wei Haohao resisted and said, "Dad, you promised your daughter before that she would choose her own husband."
Wei Guangdu nodded and said, "Father has not forgotten. Wei Liu, what did you say? ?"
Wei Liu asked: "Dad, which prince is it? Is it the prince?"
"It shouldn't be the prince. Judging from his age, he may be the eleventh prince, Prince Chen. "
"Being a princess is not bad, my daughter is willing." Wei Liu happily agreed to the marriage.
The next day, Wei Guangdu reported the matter to the court. Emperor Yan Ping agreed to the marriage without comment, and suppressed the objections of the imperial censor and others to the selection. Immediately, the palace sent palace officials to teach Wei Liu the wedding etiquette.
After struggling like this for several days, Wei Liu complained unbearably: "There are so many things going on in the palace."
The old palace man in charge of educating her was named Zhang. Hearing this, he said solemnly: "Miss Wei, be careful, you are not the Princess of Jin yet, you are just the concubine of the Minister of War's family. According to the rules, you are not qualified to be a princess. It is the grace of the Holy Spirit that has given you your current status. What's more, you should Learn these etiquette well and live up to the divine grace."
Wei Liu was pampered by the Liu family since he was a child, and even Wei Guangdu could not interfere. In order to avoid suspicion, Mrs. Wei did not preach easily, so as to prevent Liu from taking advantage of the topic. It disturbs the family's peace. Although he knew this truth, he still said with some dismay: "Of course I know. If it weren't for becoming Princess Jin, why would I have to suffer all this?"
Suddenly a light flashed in his mind, and he realized something was wrong, so he asked Said: "What kind of King Jin are you talking about? Isn't it King Chen?"
"What King Chen?"
"Who am I marrying?"

"Of course it's King Jin." Although the palace man named Zhang didn't know why Wei Liu suddenly became so excited, he still honestly told the information he knew.
/p>
Wei Liu left so fast that the palace official named Zhang didn't know whether to first refute her accusation of cursing the royal children or to stop her from continuing to learn the rules and etiquette.
Not long after I took over the affairs of the Ministry of War, I have to be busy againWei Guangdu has been really busy these days with the matter of getting married to the royal family. When he was looking at the gift list sent from the palace in the study, Wei Liu broke in angrily.
Wei Guangdu said with some displeasure: "I am about to become a wife, how can I behave so recklessly?"
"Dad, didn't you tell me that you are King Chen? Why did he suddenly become the dying King of Jin?"
Wei Guangdu slapped the gift list on the table and said angrily: "You know what it means to curse a member of the royal family? What's the crime?"
"I don't care, I want to marry King Chen, and I don't want to marry that useless man who is about to die. You think I don't know, this has been spread all over the capital. The king is not favored..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wei Guangdu, saying: "Presumptuous! Is this something you can say? Now, go back and learn your rules. Forget the etiquette, and say one more thing, you don’t have to come out before getting married.”
Wei Guangdu’s serious look did not scare her, and she said aggrievedly: “Why don’t you let your baby do this? Daughter? Wei Haohao is your daughter, am I not? You are partial! You left all the good things to her, but you asked me to marry the dying king. You really don’t want me to feel better..."
The look of Wei Liuti and Si making love did not make Wei Guangdu soften his heart, but made him deeply regret that he should not have allowed their mother and daughter to live together in the past. If they had been separated early, maybe Wei Guangdu would Liu will not be as ignorant as he is now.
"It was only after I saw the imperial edict that I realized you were marrying the King of Jin. But the imperial edict has already been issued. How can you be allowed to regret your marriage just because you want to? Come on."
Listen. Upon hearing Wei Guangdu's call, the housekeeper Wei Youran immediately led people into the house, bent down and said: "Master, what are your orders?"
"Invite the second young lady back to your courtyard. You are not allowed to do so without my permission. She's half way out of the hospital!"
"Yes. Second lady, please."
Even if Wei Liu was unwilling, he had to be locked up in his own courtyard.
After Mrs. Liu heard that her daughter had been punished, she went to visit her and naturally found out about it. Like Wei Liu, she immediately went to make a fuss with Wei Guangdu. But this time is different from the past. In the past, Wei Guangdu tolerated it for the sake of the peace of his family, but this time it was an imperial edict. Disobeying the imperial edict will result in losing your head! Their whole family will be implicated, so Wei Guangdu's attitude is extremely determined.
In the blink of an eye, the wedding day is coming. On this day, the prince visited the Jin Palace in person.
Without letting anyone know, Prince Li Hao went to the bedroom of King Jin in his memory. Some areas of this bedroom appear clean because they are frequently cleaned, but some areas may have accumulated a thick layer of dust because they were not used.
In total, it has been a full year since the assassination of King Jin. No matter how hard he survived, he could not support him to persist any longer.
Looking back, Emperor Yan PingWhat he said to him, "Go and see him, it's time."
Only Li Hao understood what this sentence meant. It's just that when Emperor Yan Ping said these words, there was no fluctuation in his tone, no trace of sadness, as if Li Hao's death was an ordinary trivial matter to him. This attitude made Li Hao feel very sad.
Jin Wang Li Jun is still in a coma, showing no signs of waking up, and his face is very different from what he saw a year ago.
When the oil was exhausted, Li Hao knew that this royal abandoned son had finally reached the step they hoped for.
After being in bed for a long time, a strange smell will be produced, mixed with the lingering smell of medicine. This smell is really not very good.
"Open the windows."
After Lu Tong received the order, he opened all the windows in the house.
It is early winter, the dry old trees have lost all their branches and leaves, and the green grass has withered and withered. Occasionally, a gust of cold wind swept over, and then stopped abruptly, giving a look of decay. Coupled with today's gray weather, people's mood is also tainted with a hint of despair.
Li Hao's hand lightly brushed Li Jun's face, which looked so skinny that there didn't seem to be much flesh.
"It's different from when I was a child."
Li Hao still remembers the first time he met his younger brother when he was five years old. Because of the appearance of this little thing, his mother became even more crazy. She often beat him, but after each beating, she hugged him and cried bitterly, telling her dissatisfaction with her husband.
