Chapter 61: Yue Wang Yizi
Chapter 61 The adopted son of the King of Yue
"Brother, please get up quickly!" The young emperor Zhao You took the lead and walked quickly to Zhao Qian, lifting him up affectionately with both hands, his face full of excitement, "I have long wanted to bring my brother back, but it's just that
Father’s imperial edict cannot be violated, and it’s not until today that we brothers can meet each other!”
The king of Yue, Zhao Qian, replied with a sincere and frightened look: "I thank the emperor for your kindness. I thought I would never be able to return to Beijing to reunite with my family in this life!"
"Brother, whatever you say, you can come to Beijing every year for the concubine's birthday and with my permission!" Zhao You said with a smile.
But many people present felt that there was something in the emperor's words. Could it be that the implication was that the King of Yue was not allowed to enter the capital without the emperor's permission and it was not the concubine's birthday?
Several old ministers in the palace all looked at Yue Wang Zhao Qian in unison. This prince has been very ambitious since he was a child. If not for this, the late emperor would not have given him the title of king so early and let him go to a barren land like Qingzhou.
, when the late emperor was in power, he would use various methods to suppress the vassal kings openly and secretly. Even when the late emperor passed away, the King of Yue and the vassal kings were not allowed to go to the capital for mourning. For the sake of the peace of the Jin Dynasty, the vassal kings were upset.
The country will be in disaster.
It's just that the old ministers are not very popular with the young king now. Regarding the visit of Yue King Zhao Qian to Beijing, they, those who were loyal to the late emperor and the court, severely opposed the move. However, the emperor did not listen to the advice, saying that the late emperor only said that three years after his death.
The feudal prince is not allowed to enter the capital, but he can be granted permission to enter the capital after three years.
This was clearly inviting a wolf into the house, but the emperor didn't know it, and the senior officials could only shake their heads. The capital would not be stable now.
Look at how Prince Yue shocked everyone in the palace when he arrived. Gu Jingcheng died in battle that day, but many people saw it with their own eyes. His body was carried back to the capital, so why did a living "Gu Jingcheng" appear again?
No one has heard that the Gu family gave birth to twins!
Zhao You also turned his attention to the three young men kneeling on the ground, then passed over the Yue Prince Zhao Wei and the second son Zhao Lian, and said to the white-robed man: "Raise your head!"
The man raised his head as he was told, and was not afraid of facing the Nine-Five Lord. On the contrary, he had a calm expression, and the arrogance between his brows could not be concealed. He also had an outstanding temperament despite being neither humble nor arrogant. The most important thing was his handsome and gentle face.
His face was exactly the same as that of Gu Jingcheng who had died in the battle.
However, Zhao You didn't like his eyes that looked humble but were actually full of provocation. With just one glance, he knew that the person in front of him was not Gu Jingcheng. It was just that the King of Yue suddenly brought such a person to Beijing. He probably didn't have any good intentions.
.
Mrs. Guo soon woke up in the side hall. Otherwise, she would be too excited to see Song Qinglun, so the emperor allowed her to stay in the side hall for a while, and then asked her if she had given birth to twins.
"Brother, I don't know what I know. Gu Changgu, the son of the emperor, has a son, Gu Jingcheng, who died in a battle with the third prince of Xia three years ago. Your adopted son looks very similar to Gu Jingcheng, not just similar.
, it can be said that they are exactly the same. Unfortunately, Mr. Gu has been seriously ill at home these past two days, and now Mrs. Gu has fainted again. I also want to ask if the Gu family gave birth to twins." Emperor Zhao You raised his hand and asked Song Qinglun and Zhao Weisan
When he got up, he looked Song Qinglun up and down again. Except for his similar face, this man was different from Gu Jingcheng.
"Maybe it's the child left behind by the Gu family, Mr. Gu - I'm afraid I'm embarrassed to say it!" Some of Gu Chang's colleagues also whispered.
Zhao You raised his eyes slightly and looked at Song Qinglun's face again. He did not answer Zhao Qian's question immediately. He signaled the eunuch to carry the fainted Guo to the side hall for the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat her. Then he walked up with the Queen Mother, the Empress and others.
He walked to the dragon chair and phoenix seat in the middle of the hall and sat down.
"Not telling the truth is a crime of deceiving the emperor!"
As a result, Mrs. Guo shook her head frequently and said that she only gave birth to a son, Gu Jingcheng, and a daughter, Gu Xiruo. She and Gu Chang were very affectionate, so the Gu family did not even have an aunt to live with. People who asked Gu Chang over there also responded,
It is said that Gu Chang has no other sons except Gu Jingcheng.
Even the emperor, who had only met Gu Jingcheng a few times, could detect the difference between Song Qinglun and Gu Jingcheng, let alone someone like Xiao Chen who was most familiar with Gu Jingcheng.
At this time, Zhao Qian had already paid a courtesy visit to the Queen Mother. Because Concubine Su was old and unwell, she did not attend the palace banquet tonight. However, Zhao Qian had already visited her after entering the palace.
"They look so similar, even if they are not close relatives, they are probably related!" Some people have begun to speculate about Song Qinglun's life experience.
Zhao Qian also had a smile on his face and replied: "Your Majesty, this is my adopted son Song Qinglun." Then he glanced around the people in the hall with a puzzled expression, and asked as if he didn't understand, "Why are you guys doing this?"
Why do you call him 'Gu Jingcheng' when you see him?"
"It seems we can only ask Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu!" Zhao You sent someone to ask if Guo had woken up, and then sent someone to Gu's house to ask if Gu Chang, who was ill in bed, had other sons.
When everyone heard the news, they were even more surprised. Are there really people who look exactly the same in the world? Or is the person in front of them named Song Qinglun disguised?
"Brother, is this your son too?" Zhao You smiled deliberately and turned to Zhao Qian and asked.
He glanced at Song Qinglun indifferently, wondering why Song Qinglun looked exactly like Gu Jingcheng. Is there really such a similar person in the world?
"Oh? This is really strange. Qinglun was raised by Master Minghui, an eminent monk who retired to Konglai Temple since he was a child. Master Minghui entrusted him to me before his death, so I adopted him as my adopted son. He has been growing up in Qingzhou
"." Zhao Qian was not lying about this. He had also just learned that his adopted son actually looked similar to Guozi Jijiu's deceased son. No wonder some people looked at Song Qinglun in a wrong way after arriving in the capital.
…
Facing more and more discussions in the hall, Wen, Lei Yingying and the others were most worried about Lin Shuran at this time, so when they saw Song Qinglun's face that looked exactly like Gu Jingcheng's, they all turned to Lin Shuran nervously.
However, he found that her face looked like it had nothing to do with her. She slowly picked up the celadon tea cup in front of her and began to drink tea calmly.
"Sister Ran, are you okay?" Lei Yingying turned sideways to block Lin Shuran's probing gazes. She was afraid that Lin Shuran would faint suddenly like Guo, so she got closer to her and asked cautiously.
appearance.
"Sister Ran——" Mrs. Wen also called her softly with worries in her eyes. She knew better than anyone else how deep the relationship between her daughter and Gu Jingcheng was. If she hadn't been forcing each other to death over the years, she would have died.
Maybe Lin Shuran had already left with Gu Jingcheng.
