MTL - Rebirth of Glory and Splendour-Chapter 63 Wei Su

As the longest reigning emperor in the history of the Dayan Dynasty, Wei Su was just an ordinary prince when he was born.

Among the sons of Emperor Shenzong, Wei Su ranked ninth and had no advantage at all. Wei Su's mother and concubine Sun, in the harem of Emperor Shenzong, belonged to the same kind, neither the favorite concubine of the six palaces, nor the forgotten existence.

In terms of origin and affection, the concubine and the concubine cannot compare to Queen Gu. She is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Qi's government. She has been childhood friends with Emperor Shenzong since childhood, and gave birth to the emperor's twins. And she is just a concubine who is not valued by the government of Guo Guo. It is purely coincidental that she entered the palace. The Sun family does not care what kind of status she can achieve in the palace. As long as she does not make mistakes, it will be good for the Sun family. Son, there are only three princesses under my knees.

Fighting for beauty, fighting for love, and Concubine He is not as good as Concubine Li, who was born in a humble background, and his family is barely considered a noble family. It's a pity that the emperor just likes Concubine Li, thinks that she is good-looking, can speak, understands his mind, and can see what the emperor thinks just by looking at her title. Concubine He is not completely unloved, otherwise she would not be able to give birth to three princesses, but in the heart of Emperor Shenzong, she is a dispensable type, there is not much of her, not much without her, nothing is worth worrying about special place.

Originally, Queen Gu had the eldest son, and other princes did not need to think about the crown prince. However, before the Emperor Shenzong officially named the eldest prince Wei Feng as the crown prince, he died at the age of ten, leaving both the emperor and the empress heartbroken and grief-stricken.

Although the emperor posthumously named his beloved son Xiaozhen the Prince of Xiaozhen, the Dayan Dynasty, after all, must have a crown prince.

It has been the practice since ancient times to establish sons with direct descendants, without direct descendants. After Wei Feng, the second and third princes of Emperor Shenzong died prematurely, and Wei Zhou, the fourth prince from Concubine Li, became the de facto eldest son.

When Wei Su was two years old, Emperor Shenzong, after several deliberation, named Li Concubine Tian as a noble concubine, and ordered the twelve-year-old fourth prince to enter the East Palace.

In the years to come, if Concubine Li and her son do not take the initiative to make mistakes, the positions of Wei Su and Jiuwu Zhizun will basically be missed.

In the ninth year of Xiande, Tiele entered Yanzhou, occupying two counties in the northwest.

The request made by Tiele Khan Boya Atu was sent back to Yujing, and there was an uproar in the court, like a pot of boiling water.

More than 200 years after the founding of the country, Dayan and Tiele were at peace during wars, and there were occasional acts of kissing, but they all married clan ladies and even palace maids in the name of princesses. The real princess of the Wei family has never been kissed. .

There are different opinions about the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. Some people say that they want to fight Tie Le to the end, and they will never swallow this useless gas. Some people also raise objections, saying that they can fight, they want money, but they don’t have money, and they want no one. Fight recklessly with Tiele's invincible cavalry.

Emperor Shenzong discussed with his ministers for three days and three nights, and came to the conclusion that the situation was not as good as others, and he could only agree to Tie Le's request for the time being. In this way, it is the empresses in the harem who are nervous, and no one wants their precious daughter to marry into a barren land.

There are many daughters of the emperor, but not many suitable for marriage, only Wei Huang, the eldest daughter of Empress Gu, and Princess Xin'an, the eldest daughter of Concubine He.

In terms of age, the eighteen-year-old Princess Gu is obviously more suitable than the fifteen-year-old Princess Xin'an. However, Empress Gu had only one son and one daughter. Her son had already passed away, leaving her daughter by her side. She was still very ill, and the always soft-hearted Emperor Shenzong could not speak to her at all.

At this moment, Concubine Li suddenly jumped out and said to the emperor that Empress Gu was seriously ill and it was inhumane to marry her only daughter to a relative. It would be better to let her share the empress' worries and let Princess Baling replace her sister. get married.

Concubine Li's words were sincere, but her only daughter, Princess Baling, was ten years old, far below the age of marriage, and Princess He's second daughter, Princess Nanyang, was also three years older than Princess Baling, no matter who took her place. Neither Wei Huang nor the pro were her turn.

Concubine Li said such words, how could Concubine He sit still, she is a smart woman, she could see from the beginning that the emperor was reluctant to bear Wei Huang, so no matter how reluctant she was, she took the initiative to say it in front of the emperor For the words of Princess Xin'an and Qin Tiele.

So, when Wei Su was three years old, his favorite eldest sister was forced to marry into a foreign country, and the two siblings never saw each other again. It was at this time that Wei Su's hatred for Tie Le and his determination to get rid of it quickly grew.

Two months after Princess Xin'an's distant marriage, Queen Gu passed away and was given the posthumous title of "Jing". The harem cannot be left without a master for a day. Concubine Li has the highest status and is the biological mother of the crown prince. It is reasonable for her to temporarily manage Fengyin and control the six palaces, and no one has any objection.

If Concubine Li kept herself safe and did her job well, it would be logical to be canonized as a new queen after the period of filial piety to the Queen was over. It's a pity that Concubine Li is too impatient. She has not yet become the queen, so she has assumed the prestige of the queen. What's more terrible is that she is just harsh to other low-ranking concubines. She always likes to get along with Concubine He, picking on her thorns everywhere and looking for her trouble.

It is true that Emperor Shenzong was not very fond of Concubine He, but she was the daughter of Guo Guo's government after all, her father and brother had a place in the court, and Princess Xin'an went to Tiele with her relatives. The attitude is obviously much closer than in the past.

Concubine Li's apparent suppression of Concubine He caught the emperor's attention, and he began to think about whether she was really qualified to be the queen. When Empress Gu was in the past, how could there be such things in the palace, it seems that the background is not enough, it is indeed a fatal injury.

As an emperor, Emperor Shenzong was barely qualified, but his mind was extremely delicate. Because of his poor health, he often worried that after a hundred years, the young Wei Su and others would be mistreated. Once, when the emperor summoned Concubine Li to serve in the bed, he inadvertently mentioned that after his big trip, he hoped that Concubine Li and the Crown Prince would treat other concubines and their princes and daughters well in the palace.

Whenever a woman with brains changes, no matter how upset she is, she will accept it with a smile. When the emperor said this, he clearly had the idea of ​​entrusting the orphan and establishing the queen. Except for the empress dowager and the new emperor, who needs to take care of the concubines and children of the previous emperor.

After hearing this, Concubine Ke Li not only did not agree, but became angry. She was unwilling to take care of the women and their children who had competed with her for favor. Emperor Shenzong was stunned, and laughed in anger, but he didn't even have a seizure. He didn't know what to say.

It was from that time that the emperor had the idea of ​​changing the crown prince. He could not make Concubine Li as the empress, but as long as Wei Zhou ascended the throne, her mother would still be the empress dowager above her. The prince changed together.

Emperor Shenzong gave birth to many sons, but unfortunately few stood still. Most of them were born to humble mothers, and only the ninth prince, Wei Su, came from a noble daughter of a serious family. The emperor hated Wu Jiwu and even lost his affection for the prince, so he began to pay attention to Wei Su.

Feeling the emperor's neglect, Concubine Li did not want to save her, but instead made a big fool, killing herself and her son.

Concubine Li poisoned Wei Su and planned to poison him to solve the problem directly from the root cause. Who knew Wei Su was lucky, he didn't eat the crystal hibiscus cake that had been drugged, but gave it to Ji Qing, the prince of Changning who entered the palace to play with him.

Ji Qing's Wei Su suffered, and almost lost his life. He was rescued with great difficulty, but he also injured his muscles and destroyed the foundation of martial arts.

When the matter was revealed, the emperor was furious. The Changning palace was so thin that it was passed down almost from generation to generation. Concubine Li ruined Ji Qing, did she want to leave the Ji family with no successor? Besides, Concubine Li's original intention, but to get rid of Wei Su, he can't bear it any longer.

In the twelfth year of Xiande, Wei Zhou was abolished from the crown prince position, and he was changed to the emperor. The following year, Wei Zhou committed suicide in the fief. He was only seventeen years old. When the commoner Tian heard the news, he died in anger.

In the fifteenth year of Xiande, Emperor Shenzong canonized Hefei Sun as Empress. The following year, Wei Suyuan served as the crown prince.

The emperor was sickly and had a weak temperament, and the political power fell into the hands of the queen mother Xie Yi for a long time. Xie Yi was not the emperor's biological mother, but an adoptive mother, and his biological son was the King of Chu. The emperor was afraid that the prince was young and would not be able to restrain Xie Yi in the future, and wanted to give him a good marriage.

Unexpectedly, Wei Su heard that his father's choice was Ji Yang, the head of Xianyou County of the Changning Palace, and he refused on the spot.

Wei Su always felt that Ji Qing and Ji Yang were born of the wrong gender, the elder brother was modest and gentle, and the younger sister was brutal and violent, with no ladylike image. The first and only time he saw Ji Yang was when he was six years old. He was beaten by her after he said a wrong sentence, and his whole body was in terrible pain, but there was no sign of being beaten. Everyone, including Concubine He, was praising Ji Yang, saying that she was a tiger girl, and her reputation was well-deserved. No one cared about him who was injured. Only Ji Qing gave him a sympathetic glance.

Due to Wei Su's insistence, the marriage between him and Ji Yang was stillborn before it was officially proposed, and was hardly known.

Two years later, the news that the Xianyou county lord married the young lord of the Jun family came out, and the whole world was shocked. Because in the eyes of everyone, the Ji family and the Jun family are two unrelated families. Don't talk about marriage between them, even if they have contacts, it will make people feel strange.

Needless to say, the Ji family is one of the two kings with different surnames in the founding of Dayan, and is also known as the head of the family in the world along with the Jiang family of the Yongan palace.

The Changning Palace started out with military exploits, and both sons and daughters are proficient in the art of war and skilled in bowing and horses. The past dynasties of the Ji family have either entered the palace as queens, or married into the same family.

Ji Yang has set such a precedent, how can it not be surprising, and there are many discussions about it. Of course, Langya Jun's family is not an ordinary family. Although they do not have the identity of an aristocratic family, they are a very special existence in the Dayan Dynasty, and no one dares to despise them.

The Jun family is passed down by poetry and books, and what they pass down is not ordinary books, but the history books from the history of the Central Plains, dynasties and countries.

Without the efforts of the ancestors of the Jun family, the history of the Central Plains before the Shenchuan Dynasty would probably have disappeared in the flames of war. Therefore, from the Shenchuan Dynasty to the Dayan Dynasty, although the direct descendants of the Jun family never went into office, their status was absolutely detached.

Jun Ya, the young master of the Jun family, is famous all over the world. His senior brother Yu Zong once said that if Jun Ya is willing to participate in the imperial examination, his title of No. Besides, there is nothing to do.

Junya married Ji Yang, Ji Yang married Junya...

Hearing the news, Wei Su felt both amused and relieved. No matter what, his father couldn't force him any more.

From Wei Su's point of view, there is absolutely no necessary connection between whether he will marry Ji Yang and whether the palace of Changning supports him. The elder King Ning had already gone, and Ji Qing was the master of the Ji family now. He believed that with the friendship between the two of them, Ji Qing would stand by him without hesitation.

In the 22nd year of Xiande, Emperor Shenzong died and was given the posthumous title of "Hui", and Wei Su, who was only sixteen years old, became the emperor.

Just as the first emperor thought, the great empress dowager Xie Yi firmly held the court and did not give the little emperor any chance at all. Wei Su is young and vigorous, how can he bear it? He is not the first emperor, and he does not have his weak temperament. He will not be at the mercy of Xie Yi.

In the first year of Yongjia, in order to suppress the momentum of the Xie family, Wei Su dismissed Xie Yi's nephew Xie Ningzhong Shuling, and replaced him with Yu Dong. At the same time, he also dismissed Yu Xian and Wei Chuan, the minister, and replaced him with Gui Ru and Sun Yan.

Yu Dong is the uncle of Yu Zong, the former champion, as well as a student of the Jun family. Although he is not from Wei Su, he is not from Xie Yi either. He stands firm in his neutrality. As for Gui Ru and Sun Yan, the former is Wei Su's teacher and the latter is his uncle, so they are both their own.

Xie Yi looked at the little emperor's actions with cold eyes, his face was calm, but he thought in his heart that the court that Aijia has been running for decades cannot be shaken by just replacing a few officials. If it was that easy, first The emperor has already succeeded, where will he be.

Sure enough, the newly appointed chiefs of the three provinces had been in office for less than half a year, and they were all found by Xie Yi. Yu Dong committed suicide in prison, and Gui Ru and Sun Yan were dismissed and returned home. Wei Su was so angry that he was helpless. He found that in front of the Empress Dowager, his power was too small.

Wei Su's crisis has not been lifted, and Xie Yi's people who dismissed him are still not giving up. He moved to change the emperor's mind.

Hearing that the Empress Dowager had summoned the King of Chu to Beijing, Wei Su panicked.

Xie Yi is not his grandmother, but he is the biological mother of the King of Chu. It is obvious who is near and who is far. More importantly, in the case of the emperor's fault, the Empress Dowager or the Empress Dowager of the Dayan Dynasty has the power to abolish the emperor according to the law.

Wei Su is wrong, this is a fact, even though he can't rise to the height of the deposed emperor, but if Xie Yi is determined and wants to put his own son on the throne, it is not impossible to make a fuss. In the hands of the Empress Dowager.

Wei Su didn't want to sit still, so he rushed out of the palace under the banner of inspecting the river workers before the King of Chu arrived in Beijing. He was going to Shuozhou, he was going to find Ji Qing, and he really fought against the Empress Dowager. Only Ji Qing's military power could help him.

Soon after leaving the palace, Wei Su asked Yingwei to make up his appearance and went to inspect the river workers instead of himself. He took a group of guards in private, diverted his route to the north, and defected to Ji Qing. I didn't want the Empress Dowager to have expected it, and sent someone to ambush him on the road in advance.

The guards fought desperately, but unfortunately they were outnumbered and gradually surrounded by people. As the opponent pressed closer and closer, the encirclement became smaller and smaller, and it seemed that someone was about to break through. Wei Su barely maintained a calm expression on his face, but his heart started to panic somewhat.

He couldn't help thinking about what would happen to him if he was taken back to the palace by the Empress Dowager. Maybe he would be deposed directly like his uncle and grandfather, King Qi Huai, and he would be given a glass of poison wine. King Huai of Qi and his younger brother, the emperor's grandfather, although he was bestowed to death, he was treated with imperial rites. He only has three sisters. If he is really abolished, I am afraid that the ending will be worse than that of King Qi Huai. God knows how Xie Yi and King Chu will treat him.

At a critical moment, a white figure broke into Wei Su's line of sight, only to see him jumping left and right, and rushing in front of Wei Su in three or two steps.

"Follow me!" The man in white grabbed Wei Su's arm and flew him up, so fast that no one else had time to intercept him.

Wei Su faintly felt that the voice sounded familiar, but before he could remember where he heard it, he was rushed away by someone with a galloping speed. After running for twenty or thirty miles in one breath, seeing that there were no chasing soldiers behind him, the man in white put down Wei Su and let him take a breath.

Although Wei Su practiced martial arts, it was only for the purpose of strengthening his body, and he had never practiced internal and light energy. After experiencing such a sudden experience, he was indeed a little overwhelmed. He sat under the tree for a while, stared straight at the man in white for a moment, and suddenly said, "You are Ah Qing, right?"

Because of their age, Wei Suda played with Ji Qing, the prince of Changning, since he could walk and talk. The relationship between the two was very close. However, after Ji Qing replaced Wei Su with poisoning that year, the elder Ning Wang sent his son to Kunlun Mountain to recuperate and expel the poison. Later, when the old elder King Ning was plotted to die in Shuozhou, Ji Qing went directly to Shuozhou to take over the military power after descending the mountain. Wei Su had never been out of the capital before, so he and Ji Qing had not seen each other for more than ten years, and their contact with each other was based on letters.

Ji Qing smiled and said warmly, "Your Majesty, can you leave? This place is more than a thousand miles away from Shuozhou. We must arrive as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night." Su feels very familiar.

Wei Su jumped up and said excitedly, "Aqing, how did your injury heal? I remember the imperial physician once said that you can no longer practice martial arts." After eating that hibiscus cake, he didn't need to practice martial arts.

"You can usually only listen to half of what the imperial physician says." After Ji Qing finished speaking, he dragged Wei Su again and swept up to the place where he hid the horse.

Wei Su looked at the tall horse with black body and snow-white hooves, and asked inexplicably, "Why is there only one horse?"

Ji Qing pouted and asked with a smile, "How long has Your Majesty ridden a horse for the longest time? No more than half an hour, right?" Seeing that he was silent, he continued: "We are going to Shuozhou, we can't delay on the way, Your Majesty. One can't stand it alone."

After Ji Qing finished speaking, he got on his horse and pulled Wei Su up. Wei Su felt a little dissatisfied with what Ji Qing said. He wanted to refute him, but also felt that it was more convincing to speak with facts, so he kept silent. An hour later, he didn't want to say anything.

After galloping for two days and two nights, and after dispatching three groups of ambushes and two groups of pursuers, Ji Qing finally took Wei Su to the Shuozhou camp.

When he got off the horse, Wei Su could no longer feel that his legs were his own. He wanted to swear that he would never ride a horse again in his life, but seeing Ji Qing's completely normal pace, he was too embarrassed to say it and swallowed the words silently. down.

As soon as they entered the camp, a personal soldier stepped forward to answer. Ji Qing immediately dropped Wei Su and ran away.

Wei Su was inexplicable, raised his legs and followed him. Before he entered the tent, he heard Ji Qing's panicked voice: "Big brother!"

big brother? ! Old Chang Ning Wang has a son and two daughters. Ji Qing is the eldest son. Where did he come from? It's really strange.
