Tyrant [Rebirth]

Chu Shaoling promised that only two of them would know about the empress dowager accepting a concubine. Chu Shaoling knew in his heart that he should tell Wei Ji about it, but he wanted to say it several times in the next few days, but swallowed the words again.

Chu Shaoling even felt a little regretful, at least he should have discussed with Wei Ji before agreeing to the Empress Dowager, in any case Wei Ji was wronged by this matter, if it was changed, Wei Ji suddenly told himself that he would accept his mother's cousin who died early as a concubine, Chu Shaoling agreed because he thought he didn't have such a good temper.

"Does the emperor have something on his mind?" Wei Ji got up and put on his clothes, enduring his discomfort and put on his obscene pants, "It's about the government affairs."

Chu Shaoling shook his head, took Wei Ji and let him lean on his body, gently rubbed Wei Ji's back, lowered his head and kissed him on the head.

Wei Ji had already seen that Chu Shaoling had something on his mind, but Chu Shaoling refused to say it all the time, and every time he just made up for it, Wei Ji thought about it and then asked: "Is it because the Empress Dowager has been in poor health? "

Chu Shaoling was silent, and said for a while, "A few days ago in the Ci'an Palace, I promised the Empress Dowager one thing."

Wei Ji's heart sank for some reason, his body was a little stiff, and he said after a while: "The emperor promised a big wedding?"

Chu Shaoling couldn't help looking at Wei Ji, did Wei Ji guess it?Chu Shaoling said dumbly: "No, it's not a big wedding... I promised the emperor's grandmother that I want... to accept Lingyun as my concubine."

Wei Ji was stunned: "Ling Yun? Didn't it disappear last autumn?"

Chu Shaoling gently held Wei Ji's hand and said in a low voice: "The Empress Dowager is actually talking about Ling Yi. I swear, of course I can't really accept the concubine, I couldn't think much about it at the time, so I had to make this bad move."

Chu Shaoling sighed: "I am sorry for you."

Wei Ji let out a long sigh of relief, what did he think it was, it turned out that he wanted to accept Lingyun's memorial tablet, seeing Chu Shaoling's face as if he was facing an enemy, he thought he was really going to get married, Wei Ji held it back Chu Shaoling broke his hand and said with a smile: "The emperor didn't feel sorry for the minister. In that situation, the emperor has no choice, and the minister understands."

Chu Shaoling lowered his head and kissed Wei Ji's lips lightly, and asked in a low voice: "If I agree to marry Ling Yi, what will happen to you?"

Wei Ji replied without even thinking: "I have already said that I used to protect the emperor alone. If the emperor marries a wife and has children, I will protect the whole family of the emperor."

Chu Shaoling was astonished: "Aren't you angry?"

Wei Ji thought for a while and shook his head, then said: "I will never be angry with the emperor, but if the emperor gets married, I will no longer be close to the emperor, and I will still be a bodyguard."

Chu Shaoling felt a severe pain in his heart. Wei Ji said it plainly, but Chu Shaoling knew how uncomfortable he felt. In his last life, Wei Ji got drunk all night on the night of his wedding. I'm afraid it wasn't just because of his marriage, but because of that night. The happy event cut off all Wei Ji's thoughts, Wei Ji's face was gentle, but there was an unshakable arrogance in his heart, even though he admired himself, he refused to condescend to share it with others.

Chu Shaoling buried his face in Wei Ji's neck, and said in a hoarse voice: "I will not marry anyone else, never will, this time I, Chu Shaoling, am sorry for you, but I promise, this will only happen once, "

Wei Ji's eyes turned red, and he said in a low voice, "Chen Xin."

At this moment, Chu Shaoling almost wanted to tell Wei Ji all the things he had been secretly planning all the time. He never thought of marrying someone else, and he would not let Wei Ji stay by his side without a name. for later.

Chu Shaoling closed his eyes, he couldn't say it yet, it's not yet time, letting Wei Ji know in advance would only make him worry for nothing, and it wouldn't do any good.

Chu Shaoling kissed Wei Ji's eyebrows and said: "Also, I have already thought about the issue of heirs. I will not keep any heirs. When... when the right opportunity comes, I will choose a suitable child from the clan to adopt as my son." , the child has been brought in since he was a child, and you will raise it yourself."

"Your majesty..." Wei Ji didn't know what to say for a moment, "Choose from the clan? I originally thought that the emperor would choose from the nephew."

Chu Shaoling sneered: "I beheaded all my older brothers. The fifth child was too young to count on, and the sixth child was bleeding from the Zhen family, so it was useless. I originally wanted Chu Shaotao's child, but it's a pity that he is now with Qi. Yu can't give up, and I can't count on it."

"I don't really care whether the blood is direct or not, as long as the surname is Chu, it's fine if you are young." Chu Shaoling said lightly, "I have always been paying attention to orphans in the clan, or children with older parents and few brothers and sisters, blood relatives. More children involve more, don't think about it, wait... there will always be a suitable one."

Chu Shaoling looked at Wei Ji firmly, and simply said all the things he had been thinking about: "I will pick up the child when he doesn't know anything, and you will raise him hand in hand, so that he will kiss you when he grows up. There is no absolute, if he is a white-eyed wolf, then I will personally kill him before he reaches adulthood, and find another child."

"If Wanxing is a sensible and worry-free person, I won't see any mistakes in raising him to an adult, so I will make him the crown prince, and after he canonize the gift, marry him a woman from the Wei family. This girl should preferably be Wei Zhan and Fu Yi's daughter-in-law. " Chu Shaoling has obviously planned many times, "Not only the prince, but also the fifth son and the sons of the clan who are useful. When I grow up, I will marry the daughter of the Wei family as appropriate. Only in this way can the royal family and the Wei family really be tied together. Together."

Wei Ji was almost frightened by Chu Shaoling, Chu Shaoling thought fortunately that he didn't explain everything, otherwise he would have been scared to death, Chu Shaoling put Wei Ji in his arms and patted him on the back to coax him: "Don't say anything to me. If I’m sorry or something, I told you this in advance just to reassure you. I’ve already thought about things a hundred years from now, and I’m sure I won’t let you, the Weifu, suffer any grievances. Just pretend you don’t know, these things can’t be done in a day or two, take your time.”

Wei Ji's eyes were red, and Chu Shaoling smiled wryly: "I knew... that's all right, I'm still going to cry when I'm a grown man, I'm going to close it soon, I still have something to tell you."

Wei Ji turned his face sideways and wiped away his tears, lowered his eyes and said: "The emperor ordered."

Chu Shaoling said in a low voice: "In the current situation, I am afraid that someone outside will ask you for something. If someone asks you, you just say you don't know. I know you have always been strict, but you don't understand the tricks of those people. It's like chatting." It takes a few words to talk to you to guess what happened in the inner palace, and you thought you didn’t say anything.”

At this moment, what Chu Shaoling was most afraid of was that something would happen to Wei Ji. Others could say the same thing, but if it came out of Wei Ji's mouth, he would become a target for others. Chu Shaoling pressed his forehead against Wei Ji's and said softly: "This I have too many things to do in a year or two, and I am not afraid of anything else but you."

Wei Ji's heart warmed, and he lowered his eyes: "I understand that I will be honest, and will not cause trouble for the emperor, and will not let the emperor worry about it."

"Good boy." Chu Shaoling kissed Wei Ji's brow, "Just need to let outsiders feel that I handle all these things by myself and you have nothing to do with it."

After talking all the words, the two of them felt a lot more happy, just after half of the night, the two hugged each other for a while before falling asleep.

After the next year, Chu Shaoling started to rectify the matter of the northern gentry’s enclosure. It was an old custom in the north. head fell to the ground.

That day Chu Shaoling was checking the list of beheaded officials and their origins, Wei Ji imitated Chu Shaoling's handwriting to help approve irrelevant memorials, when Wang Muhan staggered in and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, hurry up and see the Empress Dowager, The imperial doctor said...it's not very good."

Chu Shaoling only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and the ink pen fell on the memorial, dyed a dazzling bright red. Chu Shaoling rushed out of the council hall without saying a word.

The courtiers in Ci'an Palace suppressed their weeping, Chu Shaoling went into the dormitory and picked up the collar of the kneeling imperial doctor and lifted him up angrily: "Yesterday you said that the Empress Dowager's health has improved! What's the matter? Ah?!"

The imperial doctor was frightened half of his life, and said anxiously: "The emperor... the empress dowager is getting old, and her condition relapses from time to time... I can't..."

Chu Shaoling's phoenix eyes were almost on fire. The Empress Dowager heard the movement and called out in a low voice: "The emperor...is the emperor here?"

Chu Shaoling pushed away the imperial doctor, turned the curtain and walked to the couch. The Empress Dowager was thinner than in winter, her complexion was sallow, but her eyes were still kind. The Empress Dowager moved her body, and Chu Shaoling quickly shook his hand. Holding the Empress Dowager's hand, the Empress Dowager turned her face to look at Chu Shaoling with difficulty, and said intermittently: "Don't...don't embarrass the imperial doctor, they... tried their best."

Chu Shaoling fought back tears desperately, nodded and said: "Grandson knows."

"Ling'er... don't feel bad, the Ai family should have left a long time ago. Your grandpa has been waiting for the Ai family in the imperial mausoleum for decades, and the Ai family... has long wanted to be with you." The Empress Dowager Smiled, "Seeing that you have grown up and become the emperor, the Ai family feels more at ease. When I get down there, I have an explanation for your mother who left early."

Chu Shaoling gritted his teeth, and the Empress Dowager smiled: "Okay, at the age of Aijia, it can be regarded as a happy funeral, but I don't worry about you. You are a serious child. After Aijia leaves, you can feel as bad as you want." Cry once, let it be enough, don’t be too sad, don’t hold funerals extravagantly, it’s time for the imperial court to spend money, so keep everything simple.”

Chu Shaoling shook his head, tears streaming down his face, the Empress Dowager could not see clearly at this time, she stretched out her trembling hands towards Chu Shaoling, helped him wipe away the tears, and smiled weakly: "It's still the same as when I was a child , the face is cold, but the heart is hot... don't feel sad for the Ai family, the Ai family has seen three generations of emperors and lived in the palace for most of their lives, and the blessings they have enjoyed are big enough, so they don't suffer."

Chu Shaoling choked with sobs and said: "The grandson has not fulfilled his filial piety..."

"You have done enough filial piety, the first emperor...doesn't even have a single point for you..." The Empress Dowager spoke a little more smoothly, her face turned rosy, and she continued, "The Ai family only tells you one thing. , to the Wei family... Don't be too generous, you have given enough rewards and shelter, those people in the Yasukuni Mansion are really a piece of material, you can promote them, and the rest... can only be rich for a lifetime, for nothing Being in a high position, if you make a mistake, it will harm your family, Aijia... that is what you are most worried about."

"Grandson saves it." Chu Shaoling saw that the Empress Dowager was returning to the past, and felt like a knife was twisted in his heart for a moment, so he choked up and agreed, "The talented grandson will be promoted slowly, and the mediocre ones will be rewarded by the grandson." Silver, slowly plan for them."

The Empress Dowager nodded: "This is the way to long-term prosperity. It is the same for the Jingguo Mansion, and it is also the same for the Zijunhou Mansion. For the Wei Mansion... Aijia advises you to do the same. Aijia knows that you love him. In the future, it is enough to order the royal family to marry the Weifu, and everyone must not be promoted, understand?"

The Empress Dowager and Chu Shaoling thought of something, and Chu Shaoling agreed: "The grandson will follow the teachings of the emperor's grandmother."

"It's not really teaching, I'm just afraid you're a fan of the authorities." The empress dowager had put down several important things in her mind, she was completely at ease, after thinking about it, she patted Chu Shaoling's hand and said, "Let...let that child come here, The Ai family also has a few words to tell him."

Chu Shaoling paused, then nodded, turned around and said in a hoarse voice to the outside: "Chuan Wei Guogong."
