mountain and river oath

Zhao Jing turned and left, walking halfway, but was stopped by a eunuch, Zhao Jing knew that he was the personal eunuch beside Emperor Jing,

"Eunuch, what's the matter?" Zhao Jing asked.

"The emperor called His Highness to come over," said the eunuch.

Zhao Jing looked at the eunuch suspiciously, and said in a low voice, "Can my father-in-law tell me what's going on?"

"The slave doesn't know," the eunuch said in a distant manner.

Inexplicably, Zhao Jing followed the eunuchs to Jingdi Palace, Jingdi was sitting on the couch, Zhao Chong was sitting on the side, talking, seeing Zhao Jing coming in, he was taken aback for a moment, then stood up affectionately, and said with a smile, "Sixth brother, come here." up"

Emperor Jing was happy when he saw Zhao Chong pulling Zhao Jing affectionately, and said, "Jing Er, sit down."

Zhao Jing sat at the bottom according to his words, and Emperor Jing looked at his two sons, each handsome and unrestrained, from a young child to a handsome young man, he felt infinitely moved.

"I'm getting old," Emperor Jing said with emotion.

"Father, long live, long live, long live, how can you grow old?" Zhao Chong said hastily.

"Hehe,,,,,, children, the father is getting old, and the future will depend on you," Emperor Jing said with a smile.

The hearts of the two were shocked, and they understood the deep meaning of Emperor Jing's words, but they dared not speak out.

Emperor Jing seemed to be deeply hurt by the prince's affairs, and said, "You must not learn from the prince, let a child die for a man, this is something a father can do."

"Father, the fourth brother knew he was wrong after going through this incident. Don't be sad, it hurts your body," said Zhao Chong.

"Hey..." Emperor Jing sighed for a long time, and looked at Zhao Chong and Zhao Jing lovingly, "Among the many princes, only you two can share the worries of the father."

"It is the son's duty to share the worries of the father," Zhao Jing said.

Emperor Jing looked at Zhao Jing with relief, and said, "Chong'er, your son is already one year old, isn't he?"

"Yes, mischievous all day long," Zhao Chong said with a smile.

"She is pregnant again, let her be careful, don't hurt the fetus," Jingdi said.

"Your servant must tell her," Zhao Chong said.

"Royal heirs, the more the better," Emperor Jing said. He looked at Zhao Jing and said, "Jing'er, haven't you married yet?"

"Father, my son and minister have not accomplished an inch, so they dare not start a family," Zhao Jing said.

"Nonsense, you are a child of the royal family, born rich and honorable, what merits do you want to make?" Emperor Jing said

"Get married soon, and give birth to children sooner," Emperor Jing said.

"I obey the order," Zhao Jing said, standing up.

"You, it's just boring. Today we father and son are talking, and we don't need these vain rituals," Emperor Jing said.

"Yes" Zhao Jing said respectfully.

"Stupid, boring, which girl gave it to you, how can you two live with your rigidity?" Emperor Jing joked.

Zhao Chong laughed at the side, and said, "Father, the temperament of the sixth brother is a kind of love at first glance, but the girl likes it. The fourth brother is already 20 years old this year. Why don't the father suggest a marriage for the sixth brother to achieve success?" A good marriage"

"Okay" Jingdi said with a smile.

"Father Emperor" Zhao Jing suddenly knelt down and said solemnly, "My son already has a sweetheart. I promised him that he will be the only one in this life. Please take it back."

"Ridiculous, you are a majestic prince, how can you only marry one person?" Emperor Jing said.

"Father, my son and minister don't want three wives and four concubines, but only want to be with one person forever, a couple for the rest of their lives," Zhao Jing prayed.

"You, you," Emperor Jing said helplessly.

"Father, do you still remember mother?" Zhao Jing said.

"Your concubine mother?" Emperor Jing said, and immediately understood that Zhao Jing was referring to his biological mother.

"Although Erchen is only six years old, Erchen remembers that the mother and concubine often held a hairpin carved with camellias and missed her father. She told me that in her life, she never regretted meeting her father. She only hated him. The emperor is an emperor, if he was born in an ordinary family, even if he had simple food and drink every day, as long as the two of them stay together, this life is enough. When the mother is gone, but the son is willing to inherit the last wish of the mother. In this life, he will only guard one person, and hope that the father and emperor will come true "Zhao Jing's eye sockets were hot and humid, with tears in the corners of his eyes. .

Listening to Zhao Jing's slow talk, Emperor Jing seemed to see that woman like a camellia, pure and refined, gentle and gentle, but with an indestructible strength in her bones. He looked down at Zhao Jing, and Zhao Jing lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head. , like his mother, persistent and strong.

"Forget it, I won't force you, let me meet her," Jingdi said.

"He's ashamed to meet people, wait for the right time, I'll bring him to see you," Zhao Jing said happily, wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Zhao Chong watched from the sidelines, feeling unwilling, Zhao Jing escaped unharmed.

"I'm tired, you guys go down," Emperor Jing said.

"Yes" the two stepped back.

"Sixth brother is very capable, your mother has been dead for many years, and you still have to take advantage of it," Zhao Chong said sarcastically.

"Fifth Brother, she is my mother, and I will never use it at any time. Everything I say comes from the bottom of my heart and my heart. If Fifth Brother doesn't believe me, I won't force it." Zhao Jing walked forward quickly.

Zhao Chong chased after him and said, "You bring him to Emperor Father to have a look."

"Is fifth brother irritating me? Or jealous?" Zhao Jing approached Zhao Chongdao.

Zhao Chong looked at Zhao Jing, he was jealous, he was mad with jealousy, why, Zhao Jing can calmly say that there will be a couple for a lifetime, but he got married secretly and was forced to give up Shu Zilan, such a comparison embarrasses him "You "

"Third Brother, it's better to let go and take pity on the person in front of you." Zhao Jing finished speaking, turned and left.

Zhao Chong looked at Zhao Jing bitterly,

"Why, why?" He said bitterly, bent down and knelt on the ground, covered his face with his hands, his hands were soaked with tears, did he know how to cherish and see clearly his goodness only when he lost it.

Zhao Jing walked out of the city gate, but when he looked up, he saw Shu Zilan waiting boredly at the gate of the city. When he saw him, he immediately smiled. Zhao Jing felt soft in his heart, walked over quickly, and said, "Why haven't you gone back yet?"

"Wait for you" Shu Zilan said.

Zhao Jing was happy when he heard that, and said, "Let's go."

"What did the emperor summon?" Shu Zilan asked.

"It's nothing, just talk about it," Zhao Jing said.

Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing in surprise, he didn't expect the emperor to say nothing, he didn't believe it.

Zhao Jing nodded.

Shu Zilan said, "It seems that what happened to the prince made him sad, and he wants to find comfort from you."

"It's too late, there is no real friendship among royal brothers," Zhao Jing sighed.

"That's right, the emperor is getting old, and he only ascended to the throne after scheming all the way from the prince. He didn't understand this, but now he longs for this simple family affection," Shu Zilan said.

"It's all his wishful thinking," Zhao Jing said.

Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing with pity.

Seeing Shu Zilan's expression, Zhao Jing said, "Don't look at me like that. I don't need it. I've grown up. When I was young, I longed for my father to hug me. He couldn't call me by my name in 18 years. Now I I don't need it anymore"

"I'm sorry," Shu Zilan said apologetically.

Zhao Jing understood Shu Zilan's meaning, he felt guilty for not helping him, but this is fate, going round and round, and finally they walked together, as long as he can hold his hand, it is the greatest luck given to him by God, he will not Daring to ask for anything else, Zhao Jing looked at Shu Zilan and said, "Don't say I'm sorry, it's all fate's arrangement, I'm content if I can hold your hand."

Shu Zilan smiled, looked at Zhao Jing, all eyes were on him, and they looked at each other and smiled.

"The deposed prince is gone, and only the concubine will accompany him to leave." Li Rumei looked at Zhao Jing and Shu Zilan and said, the three sat around in the flower hall of Prince Jing's mansion, the curtains were drooping, and the dense light rain was falling, knocking There are bright flowers, and the red stamens are washed by the rain, making them more beautiful and red.

"I think back then when he was six years old, he was named a prince by the emperor. His status was noble, and he was surrounded by many wealthy children who flattered him. Now he was demoted and left the capital alone. How miserable it is." Shu Zilan said looking at the raindrops falling from the eaves.

"People in the capital are most used to stepping on the high and swinging the low, flattering the left and the right," Li Ru said with eyebrows.

"Now that the position of prince is vacant, King Qi and King Yu are the most capable contenders for the position of prince. I heard that King Yu has often been in and out of the emperor's bedroom recently, serving him diligently and making fun of him. The emperor's mood has improved a lot," Shu Zilan said.

"King Yu is impatient," Li Ru said with eyebrows.

"However, now that the emperor is getting older and his heart is softening, King Yu's move may have a miraculous effect," Shu Zilan said.

"You mean to let His Highness learn from King Yu and enter the palace to serve the Emperor?" Li Rumei looked at Shu Zilan and said.

"Is he going?" Shu Zilan looked at Zhao Jing with a smile.

Li Rumei smiled. With Zhao Jing's temperament, he really couldn't do such a flattering and flattering thing.

"Forget it, since your highness is unwilling to please, you can only do things with a dull head," Shu Zilan said regretfully.

Li Rumei smiled and saw Shu Zilan teasing Zhao Jing, feeling happy.Although he is older than Zhao Jing, Zhao Jing respects him very much, but he still has a superior-subordinate relationship. Zhao Jing looks close, but he is majestic. People around him respect and fear him, so they dare not joke with Zhao Jing easily.

"Is it embarrassing for you?" Zhao Jing said with a smile.

"If there is a shortcut, I choose the most difficult one. King Yu, as long as he says a few good words in front of the emperor, the emperor will be happy, and his subordinates don't have to do anything. How easy it is. We are exhausted. How long and how much effort does it take to do something so hard to make the emperor happy?" Shu Zilan complained with a smile.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go back to work, we have no shortcuts," Zhao Jing said.

"Yes" Li Rumei replied with a smile. He saw Zhao Jing's smile on the corner of his mouth, his brows and eyes were cheerful, and he looked like a young man teasing his sweetheart, so he said, "Your Highness, I have something to do, so I'm leaving."

Zhao Jing nodded, Li Rumei turned and walked out.

Zhao Jing looked at Shu Zilan and ran over to catch Shu Zilan, but Shu Zilan dodged deftly. Zhao Jing grabbed her and hugged her by the waist. Shu Zilan wanted to struggle, but Zhao Jing hugged her tightly and said, "Hmph, just follow Mr. Li and say that I'm rigid, boring, and don't know how to make tricks."

"Aren't you like this?" Shu Zilan said fearlessly.

"Let you say it" Zhao Jing scratched Shu Zilan's itch, Shu Zilan's whole body trembled and she couldn't stop laughing.

"You will be like this" Shu Zilan said dissatisfiedly.

"I will do other things," Zhao Jing said with a smirk.

Shu Zilan was about to run away, but Zhao Jing grabbed her and kissed her fiercely. Shu Zilan was out of breath, her hair was messy, her brows were full of love, and her fair face was covered with rouge. Zhao Jing felt itchy when he saw it , he reluctantly let go of Shu Zilan, and held him in his arms. Shu Zilan was in Zhao Jing's arms, breathing lightly and shallowly. Zhao Jing touched Shu Zilan's hand, lowered his head and kissed Shu Zilan's forehead, turned around Looking at the light rain pattering outside the pavilion, I feel peaceful in my heart.
