MTL - Rebirth of Glory and Splendour-Chapter 118 rooting
In the late spring of the first year of Wanchang, on the official road in Langya County in the south of Yujing, a simple and unpretentious carriage drove smoothly.
Don't look at this car's inconspicuous appearance, if someone who knows it sees it, they will understand how rare it is. Not to mention, the two horses pulling the cart are from Dawan, not to mention the driver and the accompanying guards, all of them are top-notch experts.
The interior of the carriage was exquisitely and elegantly furnished, and all the items used were of the highest quality. Wei Zhao sat by the window, raising the curtain from time to time to look out the window. His expression was a little serious, but he remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
Junqing sat opposite Wei Zhao, holding a tea cup in his hand, hesitant to say anything. He waited for a long time, and seeing that Wei Zhao really had no intention of speaking, he said coldly, "You asked me to come into the car, didn't you want me to accompany you in a daze?"
Wei Zhao lowered the curtain, turned his head to look at Junqing, and said calmly, "Of course not."
"Oh." Junqing replied meaningfully, "What is that for?"
Last year, Wei Zhao passed on the throne to Wei Chongrong despite the fierce opposition of the courtiers. At the beginning of the year, Wei Chongrong officially ascended the throne, and then changed to Yuan. Then Wei Zhao left the capital under the banner of "there are no two days in the sky, no two kings in the country", saying that he was going to Taiping Palace to recuperate.
In fact, Wei Zhao had never been to the Taiping Palace at all, and he planned to travel around the world in micro-clothing.
Junqing has no objection to Wei Zhao's travel plan. He travels in micro-service and is surrounded by many expert guards led by Huo Qingyang. Safety is not a problem.
But the premise is that Wei Zhao can not take him with him when he goes out.
During Wei Zhao's reign, Huo Qingyang was in charge of the East City Camp, and Ji Xin was in charge of the West City Camp. Now, Wei Zhao kidnapped Huo Qingyang to go out, and the affairs of Dongcheng Camp were temporarily handed over to Tuoba Xianhan. If Ji Xin also ran away, there would not be a town in the capital.
Junqing didn't want to go out, but Wei Zhao told him that he had to accompany him when he was going to Jun's house.
Although they have grown up intimately together since childhood, their relationship is better than that of brothers, but before Wei Su died in the fifty-second year of Yongjia, Wei Zhao and Junqing never knew their life experience.
Knowing that he was not from Empress Ji and was not the same mother as Wei Ming's brother, Wei Zhao's first reaction was that the emperor was crazy, he was talking nonsense, and he had no idea what he said.
How could he not be the son of his mother, her love for him was the same as that of the prince, how could he not be the younger brother of Princess Yuankang and Wei Ming, their love for him was so heartfelt and unreserved.
Wei Su made a mistake, it must be, Wei Zhao shook his head in disbelief.
He knew his father, a man who valued power and martial arts more than feelings. Empress Ji was born in the palace of Changning. Her father, brother and nephew have made great achievements in battle. She also has a stunning appearance that is difficult for ordinary people to match, but her status in the father's heart is nothing but nothing. As for the men and women in Wei Su's harem, they were even more fleeting like shooting stars, leaving no ripples.
Wei Zhao had a hard time believing that if he was not the son of Queen Ji, where did Wei Su's love for him come from. Concubine Xin Gui and Concubine Yun were once doted on the crown, but after their early death, Wei Su did not show more attention to Wei Xu and Wei Shi.
Who is his biological mother who he has never met, so that Wei Su, who has always been ruthless, can still remember her in his heart and love his son Wu Jiwu more than 20 years later.
Wei Zhao's mood was very complicated. On the one hand, he didn't want to believe what Wei Su said, and on the other hand, he couldn't control himself to guess who his biological mother was.
Finally, Wei Su said the name that made him doubt his hearing in Wei Zhao's expectant gaze.
King's Landing? !
Zhaoyang Huanhou Junlin? !
The undefeated God of War of the Dayan Dynasty? !
Wei Zhao suddenly widened his eyes, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He stared at Wei Su's eyes, without blinking.
This is impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Wei Zhao suddenly remembered that many years ago, Wei Chongrong once asked him if Junqing was the child born by Junlin himself.
He swore that it was impossible, because the time was not right.
How could Wei Zhao think that not only Junqing, but also himself, Junlin himself.
And judging from their brothers' birth year and King's Landing's itinerary at the time, he had them before the battle of Mobei.
Because after the decisive battle, Jun Lin returned directly to Langya, and when he returned to Yujing, he had already carried his love.
In addition to being shocked, Wei Zhao felt fortunate inexplicably. It turned out that he had also been on the Mobei battlefield and survived safely. It was really not easy.
If Wei Su had used other names, it might take Wei Zhao a long time to adjust to and accept this fact.
But for King's Landing, this process can be omitted.
You know, in Wei Zhao's life experience from childhood to adulthood, the name Jun's Landing is different.
As long as he didn't have a definite understanding of the world, Wei Su would often mention King's Landing in front of him intentionally or unintentionally.
Although Wei Zhao was only three years old when Jun Lin died, he had no impression of his appearance, but the song "Long Xiang Shou", and various deeds related to him, were clearly remembered.
only…
The object of pure yearning and longing suddenly became the person of his own life...
It's obvious how badly Wei Zhao was hit.
It's not that he wasn't curious about how such two people got together.
It's not surprising that Wei Su fell in love with King's Landing. From his appearance to his personality, to his martial arts, he is the type he likes.
But where did Jun Lin's feelings for Wei Su come from, Wei Zhao just couldn't figure it out, he obviously could have a better choice.
The deceased is respected, and that was a decision made by King Landing himself, and Wei Zhao didn't care about these issues for too long.
Besides, Wei Suxuan didn't want to change anything when he revealed the life experiences of his two sons at this time. He just didn't want Wei Zhao and Junqing to know nothing about their origins, and they were the closest twins by blood.
After Wei Su died, all the relics left by Jun Lin in the palace were used as a burial, which made Wei Zhao speechless, and he could not leave him any thoughts of seeing things and thinking about people.
Later, Wei Zhao quietly asked Junqing if there was anything left by Jun's Landing beside him.
The answer was that if the Zhaoyang Marquis Mansion itself was not counted, it was almost none. Jun Lin lived in the Changning Palace when he was young, and he sealed Hou Kaifu at the age of sixteen. It is said that there should be a lot of objects related to him in these two places. But in fact, Jun Lin lived in the palace most of the time, or in the military camp and the battlefield. For him, the palace of the Prince of Changning or the Marquis of Zhaoyang was just a place to stay, and he had never lived for a long time at all.
Wei Zhao was even more helpless when he heard the words. The identity of his cousin and the name of the ruler and minister were there, and he couldn't do anything for King's Landing.
More than 20 years of busy work have passed, the situation in the country has changed, and the tide has ebb and flow. After finally passing the throne to his son, Wei Zhao felt relieved and finally had time to do something that he wanted to do but didn't have the chance to do before.
First of all, he wants to go back to Jun's house to take a look, it is also where he was born. If in the past, Wei Zhao did not dare to have such an idea at all, he went to Jun's house for no reason, not to make people guess what it was, Wei Chongrong was more justified than him.
Now that he has abdicated, and he is traveling in micro-service again, it is okay to go there, and maybe he will find something.
Wei Zhao was unfamiliar with Jun's family, so he called Junqing to accompany him for fear that he would rush to the house and make others inexplicable. Although Junqing seldom returned to his hometown, he had long-term correspondence with Langya Jun's family, and he had to know more about the situation of Jun's family.
Except for the heterogeneity of King's Landing, the Jun's family has few people in the past dynasties, and there is no family name, but the Jun's family is handed down by history books, really want to talk about the family history, not to mention the Wei family, even the Shenchuan family in the previous dynasty did not have their family. long.
Wei Zhao didn't think about who he wanted to go back to Jun's house to meet, he just wanted to see that place, who made Jun's family rules too strict, and the children of the family were easily not allowed to take concubines, which led to the fact that the descendants of the direct branch were very thin for generations. From time to time, I have to adopt the children of a side branch.
In the generation of Jun Lin's father Jun Ya, he was the only son in the long house, but he and Ji Yang got married and divorced within two years, setting an unprecedented record for the Jun family. To make matters worse, Ji Yang agreed to give his son the surname Jun, but refused to return the man.
It's not that the Jun family didn't think about taking Jun Lin back, but after Jun Ya went to Yujing to see him once, no one mentioned it again.
Junya has two sons, one is Junlin and the other is Jun Feili. According to the family rules of the Jun family, the head of the family must be a direct descendant. If the current head of the family has no direct son, he can only adopt a stepchild to his brother or even a cousin, but he cannot let his concubine inherit it.
Wei Zhao seriously suspected that Junya asked Jun Lin to take Jun Feili away from Jun's house because his identity was too embarrassing.
Jun Lin had no intention of inheriting, Jun Feili was ineligible, and Jun Ya had no brothers, so he could only adopt his cousin's eldest son as heir. This is also one of the reasons why Junqing doesn't love to go back to Jun's house. His three uncles are all in Yujing, so it really doesn't make sense to go back to his hometown.
The carriage walked steadily and slowly in the direction of Langya. Wei Zhao was silent for a long time before he asked softly, "You said that we will go back, can we find some traces left by him?" There is nothing in the palace, and there are also the palace of the Prince of Changning and the Marquis of Zhaoyang. No, he can only count on the Jun family.
"There must be nothing, but someone who knows him..." Jun Qing paused and said slowly, "There is one more." Take it to the funeral.
"Who?" Wei Zhao's eyes suddenly lit up. Jun's Landing has almost no friends, and the only one or two are long gone. At least when Wei Zhao learned of his life experience, it was already very difficult for him to ask about the past.
Jun Qing took a sip of tea and said softly: "My grandfather, in fact... is also yours."
"Is it my grandfather?" Wei Zhao was stunned for a while, and he murmured for a while: "The old man is still alive? How long is he?" Incredible.
"Cough cough..." Jun Qing coughed lightly, as if choked by Wei Zhao's words, so he slowed down and said, "In terms of age, grandfather and grandmother are still under... Your Majesty." Wei Zhao accepted it easily King's Landing, his title to Wei Su is always Your Majesty.
Wei Zhao's eyebrows jumped, and he decided to ignore the messes of the previous generation. He restarted the topic and said, "You never told me that the old man is still alive..." Knowing that Junya was still alive, he had It's time to find a chance to get out of the palace.
Junqing said unexpectedly: "I thought... you wouldn't be interested?" For example, he never had any sense of belonging to the Wei family, and he never felt that Wei Zhao had robbed him of anything. So far, he can only sneakily bow down to King's Landing. .
Wei Zhao pursed his lips and remained silent. If it wasn't for Junya's prophecy back then, his life with Junqing would probably be exchanged, so he was very interested in the grandfather who could be said to have changed the trajectory of his destiny.
During the trip to Langya, Wei Zhao's harvest was even richer than expected. The famous grandfather really lived up to his reputation. Let's not talk about it for the time being. More importantly, there are really many items left by Jun's Landing in Jun's family, and they are related to their brothers.
For example, the handprints and footprints they made when they were born, as well as the portrait they painted next to Jun Lin when they were hugging and sleeping together. It was so vivid that Wei Zhao and Jun Qing couldn't help but think of the reunion ten years ago. It's exactly the same.
Junqing's character is not like Jun's Landing, but has a taste of Junya. She has a cold attitude towards people and things, and seldom shows her emotions. However, when she sees paintings and words that she has never seen before, Junqing is rarely angry. Now, he asked Junya why he never told him this, which made him think for many years that his father left him nothing. Who knew that when Wei Zhao came, he would take everything out. Is there any difference between them.
Junya smiled lightly, and then said innocently that this was what Jun Lin meant. These things were left to the two of them. He could only take them out when they returned to Jun's house together. As for why, they only I can ask King's Landing in the future.
Junqing was speechless. He raised his eyebrows and didn't speak again. He really wanted to ask Junlin, but could he ask. And when they were born, King's Landing was only in his early twenties, so it was a bit strange why he was arranging these things.
Wei Zhao obviously thought of this question too, he frowned slightly and looked sideways at Junya. Wei Su and Jun Lin are more than ten years apart. Normally, Wei Su should be the one walking in front, but apart from Wei Su, is it possible for anyone else to tell them the truth?
unless…
King's Landing already knew at that time...
He will die soon...
That's why he made such an explanation. He was sure that Wei Su would tell the truth to the two children one day in the future, and he didn't want them to regret too much.
Wei Zhao hesitated for a long time, but finally said, "He...isn't he afraid that we didn't come?"
"In that case, I can only take these things away." When he decided to send Wei Zhao back to the palace, Jun Lin was hesitant. Although Jun Ya's prophecy sounds a little unreliable, if it is true , seems interesting too.
Wei Zhao and Junqing looked at each other silently, with happy colors flashing in their eyes.
It was that night, Wei Zhao and Jun Ya had a candle night talk, and the conversation was very enjoyable. Finally, he came to an idea. After he asked Jun Qing to return to Beijing, he told Wei Chongrong to send the prince to Jun's house and study with Jun Ya for two years.
The old man taught and educated people all his life, and his disciples and grandchildren spread all over the court and the opposition, but he refused to serve. Wei Zhao thought about it, and finally came up with this compromise method.
Junqing has no objection to Wei Zhao's arrangement. He thought about it and asked in a low voice, "You seem to be very worried about the prince?" In order to send people to Jun's house to study the walking corpse files.
"The situation of Tuantuan in the future..." Wei Zhao paused after speaking, and said after a long time, "It's completely different from Rong'er. He has no way out. He must do his best." When Chongrong ascended the throne, he was crowned prince, and Wei Qian had only one way ahead.
"Are you worried about the circle circle?" Tuantuanyuan just turned ten years old, and Xiao circle circle is only three years old. The brothers have always been close and friendly, and Wei Zhao seems to be thinking a bit too far.
Wei Zhao sighed softly and said softly, "It's not a bad thing to take precautions before it happens." He couldn't tell Junqing that what he was most worried about was actually Wei Chongrong, even though he was still a favorite son at the moment. A foolish dad who spoils him to no end.
But Wei Ming's lessons are right in front of him, and Wei Zhao can't think about it too much. In the last years of Yongjia, Wei Su's mentality towards Wei Ming was complicated, Wei Zhao could see clearly, and when Wei Ming was a child, Wei Su loved him no less than Wei Chongrong loved Wei Qian.
There is also Wei Lan's Yin Jian, who was born in the royal family, and it is difficult to avoid some fights between brothers and sisters. The most effective way is to prevent the younger brothers from having unnecessary thoughts. The most effective way is that the prince is strong enough and does not give other princes any chance. .
They also entered the palace school at the age of six. Wei Zhao and Wei Chongrong kept an eye on Tuan Tuan's studies. They couldn't relax at all. There were various supplementary classes at any time.
In contrast, Yuanyuan lived a happy life. He loved to learn, and he didn't like to play. No one would talk too much.
The gentleman was silent, and he asked for a while: "Have you asked your grandfather what he meant, I remember that he didn't take his disciples in person for a long time?"
Wei Zhao shook his head: "What are you asking? What if the old man refuses me? I can force him to fail. If I send someone directly, I don't believe he can drive my family out of the house." He glanced proudly after saying that. A gentle glance.
Junqing was completely speechless, Wei Zhao was executed first and then the remarks came out, what else could he say.
After the trip to Jun's family was over, Wei Zhao and Huo Qingyang revisited the hometown of Youzhou in the north. Junqing returned directly to Yujing and conveyed Wei Zhao's meaning to Wei Chongrong and Junhua.
Jun Hua was very puzzled when he heard this. No matter how famous his great-grandfather was, he couldn't have sent the prince to him to study.
He saw that Junqing had no plans to explain, and Wei Chongrong didn't ask anything if he understood something.
When Junqing left the palace, Jun Huafang asked, "Brother Rong, do you understand the intention of the father?"
Wei Chongrong nodded, but did not smile. Before, Wei Zhao suddenly went to Lord Langya's house, he felt a little strange, he vaguely thought of something, but he couldn't believe it.
This time, Wei Zhao was going to send Tuantuan over, which completely confirmed his guess.
Seeing Wei Chongrong's lingering silence, Junhua became anxious, and urged, "If you know it, just say it, don't make it irritating, okay?"
Wei Chongrong lowered his head, put his mouth close to his, and said something in a voice that the third person would never hear.
Gradually, Jun Hua's expression froze, he opened his mouth, as if to say something, but did not make a sound.
Wei Chongrong understood Junhua's mood very well, and shook his hand firmly. He had been observing for more than 20 years, and he had compared the information obtained by the two generations before he dared to think like that, but before today, he had not even dared to ask Wei Zhao for confirmation.
Junhua had never heard of it, and it was inevitable that he would be shocked.
After a long time, Jun Hua murmured: "So, I didn't call the wrong brother Rong from the beginning..."
Wei Chongrong didn't expect Junhua to think of this, and was dumbfounded.
