After the morning court, Jun Liyuan was summoned to Yakun Palace. Today Emperor Yanxi said that he would have breakfast with the Queen, so it was just right to let him go. Jun Lixuan brought the tonic prepared by Ling Qiyang to the queen. It is the best to add it to the ingredients to make a medicinal diet, so she went with Jun Liyuan.
"Does the third emperor know why the father is looking for you?" Jun Lixuan asked. Having been with Ling Qiyang for a long time, he also gradually fell in love with the smell of herbs. Now holding the medicine in his hand, the faint scent of the medicine is like Ling Qiyang walking beside him.
Jun Liyuan thought for a while, then shook his head, "I don't know. But it shouldn't be a big deal, otherwise I wouldn't have gone to the Queen's place."
"En." Jun Lixuan nodded.
When the two arrived at Yakun Palace, the breakfast had just been set. The emperor and the empress were sitting face to face, seeing them coming in, the empress was a little surprised, as if she didn't know that they were going to come here early in the morning.
The two saluted, and Emperor Yanxi waved his hands expressionlessly, making them stand up.
"Why are you two here?" The queen smiled, but seeing Emperor Yanxi's expression, her heart was a little drummed, so she didn't give her a seat.
"Qiyang has prepared a new prescription for herbal food, and her complexion is the best in spring, so I specially sent it here." Jun Lixuan said, and handed the medicine in his hand to the servant.
"You and Qiyang both have hearts." The queen smiled comfortingly. Ever since his son married Ling Qiyang, Yakun Palace has never lacked in nourishing medicinal meals. It has to be said that Ling Qiyang's prescription is much better than Tai Hospital's, and the taste is easy to drink. After a few months, the queen's complexion became more rosy, and she looked several years younger.
"It's as long as the emperor likes it." Jun Lixuan replied.
After asking the youngest son, the queen looked at Jun Liyuan again, "What about you? Do you have something to give?"
"I called him here." Emperor Yanxi said, with no emotion on his face.
When the queen heard this, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, but her expression remained calm and she didn't ask any further questions.
"I called you here because I heard that you raised a qin boy in the mansion. He was obsessed with the sound of the qin all day long, and was bewitched by it, so he had no intention of doing business." Emperor Yanxi said.
The queen frowned, the matter of raising a piano boy was big or small, but she didn't believe that her son would be addicted to it and not do his job properly.
Hearing Emperor Yanxi's words, Jun Liyuan frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, Jun Lixuan next to him stepped forward and said: "Father, this matter is also related to Erchen and Qi Yang, please explain to Rong Erchen."
Emperor Yanxi nodded, motioning for him to continue.
"That person is not some qin attendant, but a qin performer named Mo Qingge. He was the one who was rescued by chance when Erchen accompanied Qi Yang to investigate the corpse line Gu." It's equivalent to a young man, but Qin Ling is a performer but not a person, and his status is much higher than that of a young man, "Because Mo Qingge is a man, and Qi Yang is a prince, I don't want his reputation to be ruined because of saving people." I was hurt, so I sent him to the third brother's house to be raised. In fact, I also have selfish intentions, and I don't want Qi Yang to spend too much time with other men."
Emperor Yanxi looked at Jun Lixuan, nodded, and agreed with him, "At that time, you reported the corpse thread Gu back and forth, but Qi Yang didn't come, you said you were saving someone, is this the person?"
"Yes." Jun Lixuan said: "After getting along for a period of time, both Erchen and Qiyang felt that Mo Qingge was extraordinary in conversation, humble and elegant, without the slightest bit of worldliness, which is rare. During this period, Erchen also Someone checked him out. Although Mo Qingge lives in Fengya Pavilion and is a piano player, he has always kept himself clean and has a clean reputation. He is not a person who is greedy for vanity. This is why he can rest assured that he will stay in the third brother's house and let him Qiyang made friends with him. The third elder brother also took care of the wounded with good intentions, but he was misunderstood if he didn't want to."
Jun Lixuan used "misunderstanding" instead of "framing". On the one hand, it shows that they have never felt that this kind of thing is worthy of criticism from others.
Jun Liyuan also stepped forward to salute, and said respectfully: "Father, you often teach your sons and ministers that although people are divided into grades and grades according to their different identities, you can't judge others' high or low just because of their identities. You I also once said that all talented people are worth using, as a prince, you must also learn to know people and make good use of them, and never let others' talents go wrong."
Emperor Yanxi nodded. Although there are many talents in the court, he believes that there are countless capable people among the people, not inferior to the court.
"I was worried about my concubine's affairs some time ago, and recently I've put all my heart into preventing floods. Sometimes I can't think of a better way, so it's hard to avoid worrying. At this time, talk to him for a while, I can always relax and be enlightened. Maybe this is nothing to my father, but it is really rare for my son." Jun Liyuan said sincerely, "I cherish such a person in the mansion."
"I understand." Emperor Yanxi sighed lightly. Back then, Concubine Xian would always be able to chat with him when he was in the worst headache, so that he could relax, so that he could better deal with the affairs of the court. Now that there is no such woman by his side, Emperor Yanxi misses it very much. Now that my third son met such a person, he should cherish it.
Hearing Emperor Yanxi's explanation, Yuan was a little surprised. But the queen next to her had a clear face, she knew who the emperor thought of. Not only Emperor Yanxi, but she was sometimes disturbed by the affairs of the harem, and her fellow sisters could also help her a little bit. So her relationship with her sister has always been deep.
"The so-called son-in-law obsessed with the sound of the piano all day long is even more nonsense. Although his hand injury has healed on the surface, Qi Yang said that he can't play the piano until he has finished soaking in the medicinal oil. It's just that taking care of himself is not a problem." Jun Liyuan Continued: "My son really appreciates Mo Qingge very much, but Mo Qingge is a man, and he has always kept himself clean. He has never seduced his son, nor is he his male favorite, and he has never crossed his distance. He entered Fengya Pavilion It is really helpless and should not be criticized. What's more, he has redeemed himself now, and he should not be humiliated like this."
Although Mo Qingge stayed at his house, the relationship between the two of them was pure and innocent, and there was nothing anyone could talk about.
"Don't hide it from my father. He originally didn't want to stay. Mo Qingge didn't want to enter the palace gate. All the guests in Xianyage knew it. It took me a lot of effort to let him stay. Be a luthier." Jun Liyuan said.
Emperor Yanxi didn't speak, but seemed to be thinking about it.
The queen spoke first, and asked with some concern: "How did he get hurt?"
"I heard that he didn't want to submit to the rich and powerful, and was tortured a lot, with all ten fingers broken. If he hadn't met Qi Yang, he would have become a useless person." Jun Liyuan explained avoiding the seriousness.
The queen frowned, her eyes could not hide her anger, "There is such a thing in Daye, what is the difference between this and robbery?"
"Emperor, please calm down." Jun Lixuan said: "Mo Qingge offended someone, staying in the third elder brother's house can save his life, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise."
"What dignitaries?" Emperor Yanxi asked.
"It's not a big shot, so don't worry about it. After all, Mo Qingge is fine now, so it's not easy to hold him accountable. My son thinks, just teach him a lesson."
"En." Emperor Yanxi nodded. Now that the person has come to the third son's mansion, it is really appropriate for the third mansion to handle it.
"Since that person can't play the qin, isn't it deceiving the emperor by saying that Yuan'er is obsessed with the sound of the qin?" The queen felt that this matter should not only be clarified by Jun Liyuan, but more importantly, Emperor Yanxi should not listen to such slander in the future.
"Dare to ask Father, how did you know about this?" Jun Liyuan asked cautiously.
His own son was wronged, and Emperor Yanxi, who found out the truth, was not happy at all, so he didn't hide it anymore, "I have to intervene about the son of the fifth son. Sit down, don't stand."
"Thank you, father." The two sat down, and Jun Liyuan said: "The fifth emperor did come to Erchen's mansion a few days ago, saying that he wanted to discuss the flood. When we left after dinner, we walked with Mo Qing who was discharged from the hospital Ge met each other from a distance. Mo Qingge saluted and left from a distance. His ministers didn't introduce him, and they didn't talk to each other. It may be that Wu Huangdi had seen Mo Qingge before and recognized him. kill him."
Emperor Yanxi was very dissatisfied with the five sons' creation out of nothing. He asked Jun Liyuan to come over because he was afraid that it would be true as said in the memorial. After all, Jun Liyuan is the eldest son, so he cares more about it. But now it seems that Jun Liyuan is really innocent.
"It doesn't matter if you want to keep a qin player in the mansion, as long as you know how to measure it. Since he entered your palace voluntarily, he is not inconsistent with the law, so you can rest assured." Emperor Yanxi no longer asks about this matter, and everything is up to you. Li Yuan meant.
"Thank you, Father." Jun Liyuan knelt down and saluted.
"Okay, let's have breakfast together." Emperor Yanxi waved his hand and ordered people to serve dishes.
Jun Lixuan got up and said: "My son is only here to deliver medicine, I have already agreed to go back and have breakfast with Qi Yang, please don't blame the emperor."
Emperor Yanxi smiled and said: "You really have a heart, that's it, go. It's also good to be a husband and wife when you are young, and to stay together as much as possible when you can."
"Yes." Jun Lixuan chuckled.
"My son doesn't bother my father and queen mother anymore. My father is right. When I was young, my husband and wife came to accompany me. My father specially came to accompany my mother. My son dare not disturb me." Jun Liyuan also said.
"This child..." the queen smiled shyly.
"Okay, you all go back. Xuan'er has found her old companion, Yuan'er needs to hurry up." Emperor Yanxi waved his hand to make them retreat.
"Yes, my son is resigning." Jun Liyuan said with a smile.
"My son, leave." Jun Lixuan then saluted and retreated.
Although it seems that Jun Liyuan and Mo Qingge still have a long way to go, at least they have a good start, and they are not afraid of changes in the ending.
At the end of March, when the army from the Northern Expedition returned to Beijing, Emperor Yanxi personally greeted them at the gate of the city, and held a banquet in the palace to welcome the soldiers.
Except for the eldest prince who was still under confinement, all the other princes participated, and Emperor Yanxi asked Jun Lixuan to bring Ling Qiyang with him, so that he would not lose his taste at the banquet.
"My dear friends, you have worked so hard in this battle. I am deeply comforted that you have lived up to your entrustment and pacified the north. I respect you." Emperor Yanxi raised his glass.
The generals in the palace stood up immediately, raised their glasses and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
After drinking, General An Guo said: "Thanks to the Sixth Prince for solving the urgent need for food and grass this time, otherwise the expedition would not be so smooth."
Emperor Yanxi nodded, motioned everyone to sit down, and said: "Che'er has contributed a lot this time. From now on, the sixth prince will be canonized as King Chong, and after the big wedding in the coming day, he will be promoted to Prince Chong."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was stunned. The fourth prince's face darkened, his teeth were clenched, and his hands under the table were clenched into fists, while the fifth prince's face was darkened, and the corner of his mouth was smiling as if nothing had happened, but his dark eyes proved that it was not. Sincerely admire. On the other hand, Jun Lixuan and Jun Liyuan seemed very happy. They thought that Jun Liche should be enthroned, but the emperor didn't speak for a long time, and they didn't dare to ask more questions. Now it finally comes true.
Jun Lixuan picked up a chopstick dish for Ling Qiyang, Ling Qiyang was happy to see him, and said with a smile: "Now the prince is complete, and only the princess is waiting."
Jun Lixuan nodded with a slight smile, when it came to the sixth brother's concubine, Jun Lixuan felt that it was a bit difficult.
Jun Liyuan touched Jun Liche who was beside him, and Jun Liche immediately returned to his senses, stepped out of the table and knelt down to thank him, "I thank you, Father."
"Get up." Emperor Yanxi said with a smile: "Che'er left the palace at an adult age. I have never been entrusted with the throne, and I know that there are rumors. In fact, this is the last wish of the old concubine. She once told me that if my son is not successful, there is no need for him." The purpose of becoming a king is firstly to hope that the child will make progress in the future, and secondly to not want the child to be arrogated by being favored. Now that Che’er has made great achievements, the wish of the noble concubine Xian has been fulfilled.” Speaking of this beloved concubine who died long ago, Yan Yan Emperor Xi's eyes were full of disappointment.
Jun Liche didn't speak, in fact, he didn't care whether he was crowned king or not. He has his own ability and influence, and he does not covet that false name. It's just that he didn't expect that this was the meaning of his mother and concubine whom he had never met, no wonder even the emperor had no objection. Thinking about it this way, he is also very fortunate, at least he is worthy of the appreciation of his father, the upbringing of his mother, and the kindness of his mother.
"Congratulations to Prince Chong." Everyone got up to meet the new prince. Everyone present knew that if there were no accidents, this Prince Chong would be the first prince in the new generation to be named a prince. Compared with the prince, the prince is more valuable.
"You don't have to be polite." Jun Liche said with a smile. Turning around and seeing Jun Lixuan and Ling Qiyang, the two raised their glasses to express their congratulations, while Jun Liyuan filled Jun Liche with wine, and when he returned to his seat, the four of them toasted and drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing the brothers and sisters respecting his sons and sisters, Emperor Yanxi smiled in satisfaction, and then asked his personal servants to read out the imperial decree of rewarding the generals, the monarch and his ministers were all happy...
