The emperor has more than one son. Not everyone is favored.
If he, Murong Chenghao, wants to stand on the throne, he must win the favor of the emperor.
Originally, I just wanted to be polite to the emperor for the sake of my future, but when I saw Murong Yuan, the majestic king of the country, bursting into tears, I couldn't help but feel really touched in my heart.
"Father..." Murong Chenghao shouted, but he also choked up a little more.
Murong Yuan patted Chenghao's thick shoulder, his face full of respect, "You are a responsible man. Although this is the first time I see you, in fact, I have already taken you into consideration. I have sent people to sneak in.
The Imperial Palace of Qi Tian Kingdom has always ordered people to keep an eye on you secretly. I want to know if you are well and want to know your safety."
"My son, I would like to thank my father for your concern."
Murong Yuan took the initiative to hold his hand, like a loving father, and led him to the side hall. In the side hall, there was a table of exquisite palace dishes and two bottles of fine wine on the royal table. "Come, let us father and son have a drink."
Ichiban!”
"yes."
The two sat down facing each other, with the eunuch Zhang Jixiang accompanying him. He was worried that the emperor wanted to drink, but he did not dare to say anything.
Murong Yuan looked out of the window. Outside, there was snow and silver. The bright moon hung in the sky, quiet and bright. "I raised my glass to invite the bright moon and drank together as three of us. I often drink by myself and raise my glass to the sky.
Invite the bright moon to face my shadow, and we become three people. Hao'er, do you know? Ever since I found out that your mother was pregnant with you, there has never been a moment when I didn't miss you in my heart."
Murong Chenghao poured a glass of wine for the emperor.
The emperor drank it all in one gulp, and his eyes that had gone through many vicissitudes of life fell on his son's face again, "When your mother was pregnant with you, I was just an unpopular prince, unable to protect her, and I had too many helplessness."
"Father, let's not talk about the past."
"No, I have to say. Although I have never fulfilled my responsibilities as a father, I still hope to get your understanding." Murong Yuan's eyes were full of heavyness, "The woman I love most in my life is your mother Chen.
Min, after she went to Qitian Kingdom to marry Jun Shun, I often missed her, and even decided not to have a concubine or queen in this life. I stayed alone for your mother for ten years, and I didn't favor any other woman for ten years.
It’s my love for your mother. I’m also...I’m sorry for her."
Murong Chenghao's stern eyes flashed with surprise. Originally, Murong Yuan actually gave his pregnant mother to Jun Shun, causing his mother to die tragically in Qi Tianguo. He hated Murong Yuan.
If he hadn't done that back then, his mother might now be in the Huanyue Kingdom Palace and be one of Murong Yuan's concubines, or, with her talent and virtue, she could be the queen. At least, her mother wouldn't end up with a thousand arrows piercing the center and a tragic death.
.
Hearing what Murong Yuan said, I felt in my heart that Murong Yuan had feelings for his mother. Otherwise, let alone the emperor, no man would be able to guard his wife for ten years.
Murong Yuan sighed, "I am the emperor, and I have too many involuntarinesses and too much pressure. The royal family needs to spread its branches and branches, and its bloodline cannot wither. I cannot be a sinner. After ten years of hard work, I have served as a civil and military official and a clan member.
...and my mission, which prevented me from going my own way. So, ten years after your mother went to Qitian Kingdom, I established more than ten concubines and favored them. Then I gradually had other children. Therefore, you have
Four out of thirty, your remaining sisters and brothers are all in their twenties."
