MTL - Rebirth of Glory and Splendour-Chapter 29 Dilemma
The reunion of old friends, if they insisted on the rule of "eating without speaking", it would obviously be a bit funny, but Wei Zhao and Jiang Che didn't know what to say, so they chatted about the courtroom. In this case, at least they won't be cold, and they won't be relatively silent.
Wei Chongrong suspected that his existence was a bit redundant, which affected the mood of Wei Zhao and Jiang Che chatting, so he hurriedly finished eating and ran out to play. Who knew that Wei Zhao and Jiang Che were still the same, but they didn't know what to say. Wei Chongrong hid at the door, looking anxious.
I saw Jiang Che picked up the glass and drank it, pretending to be calm: "Azhao, how have you been all these years?" As soon as he said that, he regretted it. .
Wei Zhao burst into laughter when he heard the words, and he fell back and forth with laughter. He finally stopped laughing. He looked at Jiang Che and murmured, "Ache, are you drunk? How can I have a good life?"
"Azhao, I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing!" Jiang Che looked at Wei Zhao's tears, his face panicked, and he was calm and calm before anyone else.
Wei Zhao shook his head and said indifferently: "You have seen it all, I have a son, Helian Zhuo and I's son..."
Jiang Che didn't wait for Wei Zhao to finish his words, and said decisively: "Azhao, this is not important, I know he is your son, that's enough."
"A Che, listen to what I have to say." Wei Zhao made a silent gesture and continued: "The Jiang family's title needs a successor, and you also need a princess and a prince. As for me, I have Rong'er. That's enough, he's fine."
Jiang Che didn't believe it, and questioned, "Azhao, you didn't say that before." At first, the young prince told him that he liked him, and Jiang Che was both happy and sad.
The joy is that the person he admires has the same mind as himself, and the worry is that the too noble background makes them have no chance to be together at all. Wei Zhao is the favored direct prince, and there is no possibility of falling. He is the hereditary Yongan. Wang's only son, it is also impossible to enter the palace.
Even so, Wei Zhao still took Suyundan, and he said that what he wanted was never something he couldn't get.
The first three months of taking the medicine were the most painful, but Wei Zhao kept it a secret from the people in the palace. Except for the chance to vent in front of Jiang Che, he had to grit his teeth and endure it.
There were several times when Wei Zhao couldn't bear the pain and cried while hugging Jiang Che, saying that he would only have two sons in the future, one surnamed Wei and the other Jiang, who could just inherit the throne.
Facing Wei Zhao like this, Jiang Che felt distressed and proud, and couldn't say anything to persuade Wei Zhao to give up. For his sake, his little prince can do anything, suffer any pain, and he is not satisfied.
But now, Wei Zhao said he was going to give up...
Wei Zhao's lips curled slightly, and a meaningful smile raised: "A Che, I'm no longer a child, I already understand that in this world, it's impossible for everything to run according to one's own will. something, you have to give up something.”
Jiang Che looked straight at Wei Zhao, as if to find out what was in his eyes. After an unknown amount of time, he stood up, walked in front of Wei Zhao, knelt down on one knee, and cupped his hands: "Anytime, as long as His Highness needs Wei Chen, Wei Chen will go through fire and water, and he will never give up."
Wei Zhao lifted Jiang Che up, looked at him, and said, "I don't need you to die, I want you to live well." Wei Chongrong became more and more confused as he listened. He was frowning and thinking when he was discovered by Jiang Che who was going out. An angry Wei Zhao took him back to the palace.
During the half-day trip out of the palace, Wei Zhao discovered that Wei Chongrong had a very bad habit of eavesdropping on adults, so he severely criticized and taught him, and even locked him in a small dark room for one night.
If a real child had been used to sleeping with a nurse and maids since childhood, if he was suddenly locked up in an empty bedroom, he would definitely be frightened and cry, but Wei Chongrong would not, there was no one around to guard him. , he slept more soundly than usual.
Although he was not afraid of Wei Zhao's punishment, Wei Chongrong still conducted a deep self-reflection on his actions, and came to the conclusion that he still needs to listen to the corners of the wall in the future, that is, kung fu must be practiced at home and cannot be easily discovered by others. Wei Zhao would not feel ashamed of him.
The next day, Wei Zhao got up early and saw that Wei Chongrong was already practicing in the yard. He was speechless and looked up at the sky. He has a feeling that Wei Chongrong is not afraid of him at all, I hope it is just his delusion, otherwise he will not be able to discipline him at the age of four, how will he be good when he grows up.
For a long time after that, Wei Zhao did not take Wei Chongrong out of the palace again. It was not that Wei Zhao was punishing his son, but that he urged him many times, and Zhuang Yu finally agreed to remove the unpurified medicinal properties from his body.
Zhuang Yu did not deliberately delay the diagnosis and treatment of Wei Zhao, but the secret medicine of Fuyu, which has its own uniqueness.
Previously, Wei Zhao was recovering from a serious illness and needed to be recuperated. How could he start? Even now, Zhuang Yu felt a little reluctant, but Wei Zhao refused to wait.
Oral administration is simple, no matter how bitter it is, it is nothing more than a few bowls of soup, drink it while pinching your nose. On the other hand, the external application made Zhuang Yu very embarrassed, because the most important medicine must reach a certain temperature to take effect, but after the medicine is applied, how can it be heated.
Zhuang Yu racked his brains and finally came up with a solution. He improved the prescription and changed the original external application to a medicated bath. In this way, the temperature would not be a problem, but Wei Zhao had to soak in the weird-smelling tub three times a day for at least half an hour each time.
Wei Chongrong has always been the closest to Wei Zhao, and he kisses and hugs him a few times a day without pestering him. But ever since Wei Zhao was stained with the lingering smell of medicine, Wei Chongrong would avoid him for three feet when he saw him. That smell was really unbearable.
Wei Zhao was very upset when he saw this, and asked Zhuang Yu to give Wei Chongrong a recipe for a medicinal bath, which would help the growth of the root bone, which was very beneficial to his martial arts practice. Wei Chongrong was naturally reluctant, but Wei Zhao refused to be soft and hard, it was useless to act like a spoiled child, and resistance was also ineffective, so he could only accept it with grievances.
Since then, Wei Zhao has been accompanied by someone in the medicinal bath every day, so it will not be too boring, and Wei Chongrong's body smells stronger than Wei Zhao, so there is no reason to dislike him, and the father-son relationship has returned to normal.
The day-to-day treatment was boring and tasteless. Fortunately, when the summer ended and autumn came, Zhuang Yu finally announced that the medicinal properties in Wei Zhao’s body had been cleared, and the rest was long-term recuperation. After all, he had been drugged for almost five years. There are always some sequelae.
The most unfortunate is Wei Chongrong, Zhuang Yu gave him a long-term prescription, insist on it every day, and can't slack off. Thinking that there will be at least ten years in the future, he will have to deal with Kuhaha's concoction every day, even if he doesn't need to drink it, Wei Chongrong is also annoying, but unfortunately he can't refute it.
At the same time, the palace that Wei Zhao had built a long time ago was also redecorated and can be moved in at any time. Wei Su and Ji Wan were not too reluctant about Wei Zhao's departure from the palace to open the mansion. Wei Zhao was in the capital anyway and could be seen all year round. Compared to Wei Xiao, who was in the vassal, it was much better. Besides, Wei Zhao is already an adult, so it is only reasonable to open a mansion by himself. There is no reason to live in the palace all the time. It's just that Wei Su also said that even if Wei Zhao leaves the palace, Yongfu Palace will keep it for him, and he can go back to stay for a while during the festival.
Wei Chongrong is full of expectations for leaving the palace. Dayan's palace is too big, and the people in the palace are too far apart. He also has unpleasant memories of his previous life. He lives in it and feels uncomfortable. He just wants to move as soon as possible. go out.
September 19, the auspicious day of the zodiac, is suitable for marriage, sacrifice, consecration, travel, relocation, and bed placement. On this day, Wei Zhao brought Wei Chongrong into the new palace. Because Wei Zhao was in Fuyu for many years, most of the palace staff who served him in Yongfu Palace have been released from outside the palace, or were transferred to other places in the palace by the queen. The palace maids followed him out of the palace. In addition, the rest of the palace's servants were carefully selected by the Queen's people from the young mansion.
In Yongfu Palace, Wei Chongrong lived with Wei Zhao. Although he didn't sleep in the same bed as in Fuyu, it was also an inner room and an outer room. He could take care of him at night. Only when he was punished, Wei Chongrong was arrested by Wei Zhao. Throwing it into the uninhabited side hall.
After moving to the palace, Wei Zhao gave Wei Chongrong a separate yard, saying that he was going to study at Gong Xue next year. Because he had no foundation, he was afraid that he would not be able to keep up with the progress by then, so he planned to hire a gentleman for him in a few days. Come, make up for the basic knowledge first, and have a yard to be more convenient.
In Dayan, no matter the royal family, the aristocrats, or the underage young masters and young ladies, the nurses are responsible for taking care of them in their daily life. Rarely are the masters and mothers who take care of their children by themselves.
There is no hostess in the Qin palace. Even if Wei Zhao cares about Wei Chongrong, the details of clothing, food, housing and transportation are not what he can think of. As for Wei Chongrong's wet nurse, he will not mention it. So, he gave Lanshang and Zisha to Wei Chongrong and asked them to take care of his food and daily life.
Wei Zhao practiced martial arts at the age of three, and he practiced diligently since then, until he fell into the hands of Helian Zhuo, who restricted his entire body of martial arts. Since Zhuang Yu unraveled the medicinal properties for him, Wei Zhao wanted to resume martial arts, but Zhuang Yu repeatedly reminded that this matter should not be taken too hastily. King Qin's body still needs to be recuperated and cannot bear too strenuous activities in a short period of time. A few of them in the green clothes were ordered by the queen, and they kept a close eye on Wei Zhao. If he had any changes, it would be spread to the Weiyang Palace. Therefore, Wei Zhao was so impatient that he did not dare to start practicing martial arts in the palace.
On the second day of the move, Wei Zhao, who was very itchy, arrived at the martial arts training ground early. He tried to draw the bow, but his hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't draw it.
Wei Zhao was stunned for a moment, his eyes filled with disbelief. Being drugged all the year round, and being injured constantly, Wei Zhao could imagine that even if he lifted the ban, his martial arts would not be able to return to its best state. But what he didn't expect was that his physical strength and skill would degenerate to such a degree that even the lightest bow in the palace could not be drawn. You must know that this is a bow that he can use freely when he is less than ten years old. When he was hunting in Shanglin, he personally used it to shoot a white tiger for his father, so he was praised by Wei Su: "This son is quite famous. Yang legacy."
Now, he can't even draw this bow. Is it possible for him to return to the battlefield and kill the enemy himself? Wei Zhao was holding the bow and arrow, with a smile that was not a smile on his face, as if he wanted to cry but not cry.
Said Wei Zhao was laughing, but his eyes were full of grief, as if the next second, he would be able to shed tears, there was no smile at all; if he was crying, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, as if With a mocking sneer, looming.
Luyi and Qingxiu have been in the palace since they were young, and they are people who have been serving Wei Zhao since they were little palace maids. How heroic the former four princes are, they have all seen it. Seeing Wei Zhao at this time, it is inevitable to be sad. Wipe away your tears, you have to hide away, lest he be discovered.
Wei Chongrong's practice place is not far from Wei Zhao. Naturally, when he saw his abnormality, he was also frightened. Wei Zhao's psychological quality would not be so bad. He was either sick or injured in recent years. Yes, it's normal, just practice slowly.
Wei Chongrong really wanted to come forward to comfort Wei Zhao, but he knew that the current Wei Zhao definitely didn't want to see him, so he watched from a distance to prevent Wei Zhao from discovering his existence. Mind to practice.
Huo Qingyang didn't know when he came. He patted Wei Chongrong on the shoulder and said softly, "You don't have to worry, little prince, His Highness just can't adapt for a while, he will adjust himself." Chongrong did not respond.
Wei Chongrong turned around and looked at Huo Qingyang who appeared out of nowhere in amazement. He saw that his eyes were sparkling, and he completely trusted Wei Zhao. Wei Zhao.
After being silent for a long time, Wei Chongrong said, "Brother Qingyang, when did you come, why don't I know?" Someone came to the door, and it is estimated that there is still no post. Shouldn't the concierge know Wei Zhao and him.
Huo Qingyang glanced at Wei Zhao intently, raised his eyebrows and said, "I arrived in the middle of the night last night. Some people slept like a pig, of course I don't know."
Wei Chongrong was in a hurry. What does it have to do with him sleeping soundly? Prince Qin’s mansion is bigger than Yongfu Palace. He and Wei Zhao’s courtyard are said to be next to each other, and the main rooms on both sides are also far apart. Report, otherwise who would know what happened outside the yard.
It's hard to explain such a reason, so Wei Chongrong simply asked: "Brother Qingyang, why did you come here at midnight? What's the urgency?" Haven't seen each other since.
Huo Qingyang sighed and said helplessly: "His Royal Highness moves, I want to congratulate, why is it not urgent. Besides, I only have one day off. If I go out this morning, I'm afraid I can only catch lunch when I arrive at the palace. Isn't it a waste?"
In fact, Huo Qingyang wanted to see Wei Zhao for a long time, but the western city camp was strictly controlled. He only had one day off every month, but Wei Zhao lived in the palace, and he couldn't see him when he had time. A few days ago, after hearing from Ji Xin that King Qin was going to leave the palace, Huo Qingyang asked for this month's leave.
Wei Chongrong thought about it too, so he nodded and turned his eyes back to Wei Zhao on the training ground. Huo Qingyang didn't speak anymore, his actions were exactly the same as Wei Chongrong.
Sure enough, as Huo Qingyang said, Wei Zhao quickly calmed down, and he continued to practice, over and over again, without getting discouraged.
I don't know how many times I practiced, but Wei Zhao was finally able to draw the bow full, but the arrows he shot were not obedient, either too high or too low, and none of them landed on the target. He didn't give up and continued to draw the bow.
Seeing this, Huo Qingyang was already mentally prepared, and he couldn't help but sigh. Back then, His Royal Highness the King of Qin could draw the heaviest bow and hit the bullseye with three arrows in a row. Now, with such a light bow and such a close distance, he can't do anything...
Hearing Huo Qingyang's sigh, Wei Chongrong raised his head and said, "Didn't you say, do you believe Daddy can do it?"
Huo Qingyang nodded and affirmed: "I naturally believe in His Highness, I just... a little distressed..." Wei Chongrong has never seen the best Wei Zhao, but he has, so how can he not feel distressed.
Wei Chongrong pursed his lips and said nothing. From the day they escaped from Fuyu, the trajectory of fate has been separated from the previous life. Wei Zhao's path must be taken by himself, and the same is true of his own path.
