In the city of Luoyang.

There are two factions on the road, and a large number of people have already consciously knelt on both sides of the road.

Everyone wants to come and feel the royal aura.

When Zhao Changqing came, the whole world was noisy by shouting "Long live your Majesty" over and over again.

In the midst of the crowd, Zhao Changqing said to the prince: "My son, you must always remember that the most lovable people in the world are these common people. In the whole world, the one who should be kind to these common people is the emperor."

"My son, I remember."

Over the years, the prince has become more mature and stable.

In two years' time, he will be old enough for Zhao Changqing to lead the army to resist the Chu State.

Return to the palace.

Zhao Changqing asked He Ning and others to retreat. As for the palace where Daji lived, He Ning had already made arrangements.

Live in the place where Mi Yue lived before.

When making this decision, she asked the emperor for his opinion, and Zhao Changqing was very satisfied with He Ning's arrangement.

Time is passing by, the old friend has passed away, and we can no longer miss him.

"Prince, go take care of your younger brothers and sisters. My father and your older brothers and sisters have something to say."

Zhao Changqing touched the prince's head.

The prince understood his father's intentions and watched his younger brothers and sisters playing around.

"My son (daughter) pays homage to my father." Zhao Hongji and Zhao Weixi knelt down to Zhao Changqing.

He personally helped his two children up and asked them to sit on either side of him.

Zhao Changqing held their little hands and said with something unspeakable: "Father, like you, has already begun to lead the army in battle. At that time, there were many talents and it was a real era of great struggle. Father was born in that era, and the two of you

The same thing happened to me: I grew up without a mother."

Zhao Hongji lowered his head and remained silent, with a solemn expression.

Zhao Changqing noticed his expression.

As the saying goes, there is nothing better than a father who knows his son. After seeing his son's expression, he smiled slightly and was not in a hurry to say anything.

The sweet voice of her daughter came to her ears, "My father has been lonely since he was a child. My daughter and brother have heard about it for a long time. I heard from my mother that when I was young, my father did not hesitate to hide his humiliation and suffer all kinds of things in order to survive in the capital."

The world reviled him and worked hard until he got a chance to turn around."

The queen mother mentioned by Zhao Weixi refers to the empress Murong Hening.

Zhao Changqing was quite satisfied with the extremely peaceful daughter in front of him. She was very well-behaved and sensible, and she looked more and more like Mi Yue.

Zhao Changqing smiled bitterly, "Yes, that's right. That opportunity was during the national crisis. Xiang Nantian, the commander-in-chief of the Chu State, led an 800,000-strong army to conquer our Wei Dynasty. Your father came from hard times, the most difficult times.

, we face countless assassinations every day, and so far, my father has not found the whereabouts of the mysterious organization that killed your grandma. You two are different. You are much happier than your father. Do you know why?"

Zhao Hongji remained silent.

Zhao Weixi, a sweet and gentle girl, continued: "It's because my mother and father love me and my brother very much."

Zhao Changqing fondly touched her little head and said with a smile: "You are right. Although your biological mother is gone, when you were young, you did not lack love or love. It was just some old memories.

Father really wants to tell you. After all, you are all grown up and have the ability to make independent judgments."

The two siblings seemed to have guessed what their father was going to say, so they both chose to remain silent.

That incident is still a shocking thing to this day.

It is said that my father went on a killing spree because of that incident.

For a long time, I felt an urgent need to kill someone.

During that period of time, it was also the time when the eunuchs and maids in the palace were most fearful.

This incident was the death of Mi Yue.

"Your biological mother, named Mi Yue, was the first woman to follow your father. Your mother loved your mother very much, but at that time, the country was suffering from internal and external troubles. If your father did not kill your mother's parents or her family, one day

, your father will be killed by them. But because of this matter, your mother did not want to face your father and chose to commit suicide."

Zhao Changqing said this and looked at the reactions of the siblings.

Zhao Weixi's eyes have begun to turn red.

Zhao Hongji, on the other hand, has been silent and expressionless.

"Father, I don't ask for your forgiveness, because your mother's death is indeed inseparable from your father. But you must always love your mother, even if she is no longer alive. Her death has made your father always feel sorry for you.

You feel guilty, your mother is both great and wise." Zhao Changqing stood up and left the palace.

He asked the prince to take away the other brothers and sisters, leaving only these two biological siblings.

After a while, Zhao Changqing, who was spying on the siblings outside the palace, heard the sound of wailing coming from inside the palace.

Zhao Changqing's heart ached as if it were dripping blood.

After all, he is his own child.

After a while.

Zhao Changqing issued a decree and named Zhao Hongji the King of Chu.

The former King of Qi shall be deemed deposed.

When he was granted the title of King of Qi, Zhao Changqing wanted to keep him by his side.

But later I discovered that he didn't seem to like it here very much.

It should be related to Mi Yue's death.

In this case, it would be better to let him go to his mother's hometown.

Zhao Changqing specially called the prince to accompany him for a walk.

"Father, I heard that you have not been idle recently. Most of the civil servants and military officers in the court seem to have contacts with you."

Zhao Changqing's words were astonishing.

Zhao Hongqing was startled, and he bowed and said: "Father has learned clearly that what I did as a son is just to integrate into the court as quickly as possible so that I can take care of my father's worries."

Zhao Changqing said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, you are the prince, and you can do anything except be rebellious. When your father and I were young, Jiulong was competing for the throne, and your uncles were far smarter than you.

"

Zhao Hongqing didn't think much about this sentence. Since father and son had a heart-to-heart relationship, he didn't need to think too much about it. "Father, don't you blame your son?"

"No wonder."

After being stunned for a while, Zhao Changqing asked: "My father intends to let your brother Hongji go to the Chu land to serve as the king of Chu. There are three states and nine roads in the Chu land. My father plans to give four of them as fiefdoms to your brother. What do you think?"

?”

Zhao Hongqing was stunned.

These four lands are already equivalent to a small country.

In its heyday, the Liang Kingdom was not as large as the Sidao Land.

If the whole country in the four realms is in military service by then, I'm afraid it will be another Liang or Duan Kingdom.

He didn't dare to think for too long, and after a thought flashed across his mind, he said: "Everything will be according to the father's instructions."

Zhao Changqing smiled and said, "If one day, my father is gone and your mother is old, what will happen if your brother rebels in Chu?"

"Father, do you want to hear the truth?" Zhao Hongqing asked.

Zhao Changqing nodded, "Of course."

Zhao Hongqing said bluntly: "He should not do this in the end, because I have full confidence that the army he recruited in Chu will never come back."

"If you defeat him, will you kill him?" Zhao Changqing asked again.

Zhao Hongqing shook his head, "No, because my father once said that he did not want the Xuanwu Sect incident to happen again. But my son will imprison him for life, restrict his freedom, and prevent him from seeing the outside world for the rest of his life."

Zhao Changqing was stunned. When did the prince who had always been gentle and elegant in his mind have such a ruthless side?

"Are you honest and not afraid of Father's censure?" Zhao Changqing asked.

Zhao Hongqing solemnly said: "I will not deceive my father, mother, queen, or even my brothers and sisters. To be honest with my father, I do not believe that my eldest brother will rebel, because before this, I had a heart-to-heart talk with my eldest brother, and he

He said that if I become emperor in the future, he will help me defend one side or conquer the world, and will never kill the king with his ministers. Because compared to the throne, he has more important things in his heart."

"What's the matter?" Zhao Changqing asked curiously.

Zhao Hongqing said: "Family love."

Zhao Changqing was immediately speechless.

He didn't think Hong Ji was lying or deliberately trying to keep the prince's words under control.

This child has a kind of stubbornness in his heart.

He regarded everyone in the palace as an outsider.

In addition to several of his brothers and sisters.

"If one day, what the father mentioned really happens, I will also be sure to stop him from the cliff. No matter what, I will save his life, because he is not only my father's flesh and blood, but also my brother.

.”

After hearing the prince's last answer, Zhao Changqing smiled.
