Rong Zhan's original name should be Murong Zhan, and he was the concubine of General Murong of the Southern Qi Dynasty. He was very handsome when he was young, and was ridiculed by his brother in public for being an Israeli servant.
The Murong family had a great business and had many heirs, including three legitimate sons. Naturally, the concubine had little status in the family. In addition, Murong Zhan's biological mother was a beautiful dancer. Murong Zhan was not pampered since he was a child. He was humiliated and laughed at every day.
Pei Yi, the crown prince of the Southern Qi Dynasty, adopted some beautiful young men as chess pieces and taught them martial arts, intelligence and charm skills since childhood. Unfortunately, Murong Zhan became one of them - his brother personally gave them to Prince Pei.
However, Murong Zhan is different from other teenagers. He has been smarter than other children since he was a child and knows how to tolerate it. When he was taken out to "see the world" as a child, he found an opportunity to escape and almost risked his life. It happened that Dongyou was there at that time.
Just after a war ended, he disguised himself as a child lost during the war. He was disgraced and embarrassed, and was picked up by Huangfu Liyuan.
Although he narrowly escaped death, he finally escaped. After being brought back to Huangfu's house, for a long time, he seemed to have been stimulated and forgot all the previous things. No matter how others asked, he didn't know.
I remember, I had a confused look on my face.
As time went by, no one asked anymore.
"I don't want to think about the past anymore. If the Huangfu family can't tolerate me, I can leave." Rong Zhan lowered his eyes, "Or if the eldest son wants to kill me, I will never resist."
Huangfu Lingfeng looked at him without saying a word for a long time, and frowned slightly: "I will not kill you, nor will I drive you away, but you should know that by hiding your identity, I put the lives of the whole family at risk.
On the edge of the knife.”
"Rong Zhan will never forget the kindness of being adopted and taught by the Huangfu family in his lifetime, and he will not dare to betray the trust of the eldest son." Rong Zhan said with a thousand words, "Please rest assured, eldest son."
Huangfu Lingfeng was silent for a while, his brows furrowed, and the temperature of the teacup in his hand cooled down little by little, before he slowly spoke.
"You know your identity and I know it. If you want to become an official, I will not object. If you want to marry Chu Chu, I will also not object. But if you dare to do anything that is sorry for her." Huangfu Lingfeng said carefully, "
Rong Zhan, don’t blame me for not remembering our old love for so many years.”
Rong Zhan was silent for a moment, and there was a bit of suppressed emotion in his voice: "Thank you, eldest son."
"Go out." Huangfu Lingfeng said, "You don't need to tell Chu Chu about this."
"Um."
"Also," Huangfu Lingfeng frowned, "Since I have agreed to get married to Chu Chu, we will be a family from now on. I don't mind if you call me big brother."
Rong Zhan was startled, pursed his lips slightly, and bowed deeply: "Thank you, brother."
Huangfu Lingfeng didn't say anything more. He watched Rong Zhan turn around and walk out. He sat alone in the study for a long time.
Read a book for a while and drink a cup of hot tea.
After about an hour passed, Huangfu Lingfeng stood up and walked out of the study, ordered his people to prepare their horses, and headed for the palace.
As usual, after the next dynasty, Sicang and Yun Zishu stayed together in the Qinzheng Hall to review the memorials. After ascending the throne, everything was busy, including the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Households and Staff.
Enke has already begun. In addition to the students who participated in the provincial examinations, lists of people recommended by the government from various places have been submitted. After the autumn harvest, taxes will be paid, and there are also a group of prisoners waiting to be dealt with in the prisons in the autumn and winter.
The promotion and relegation of officials in the DPRK and central government, local officials in various places, and the removal of moths, every one of them is extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming.
"Sit aside and rest for a while." Si Cang put his arms around Yun Zishu's waist and asked her to sit on the soft couch. "If you are too busy, just read the book to me."
Yun Zishu was very lazy today. She lay on the soft couch and wanted to close her eyes and rest: "Being the king of a country is indeed hard work. You have to get up early to go to court every day and deal with a lot of things. No wonder most kings in history were short-lived."
"The short life of a king is not necessarily due to hard work. Some people are due to excessive enjoyment." Si Cang laughed, "But Shu'er is right. You have really worked hard during this period. You have a good sleep tomorrow and have a rest."
"The ministers would be happy if I could rest every day." Yun Zishu closed her eyes and smiled lazily, "They hope that I, the queen, can stay in the palace and enjoy the happiness and not interfere in state affairs."
Sicang pondered for a moment: "How about delaying the time to go to court? This way we can sleep a little longer and the ministers don't have to get up so early."
Speaking of which, it is not only hard work for the diligent king, but also for the ministers who go to court every day. They have to get up at the same time every day. Those who live farther away from the palace have to get up earlier. They cannot be late for court, otherwise they will be punished.
Of course, even if it is hard work, there are still thousands of people chasing fame and fortune, and no one would think that being an official is not good.
"Don't be willful." Yun Zishu raised her hand, indicating that he should do what he should do. "Although rules are meant to be broken, they are not a reason to pamper yourself. You must not let others think that I am a demon who confuses the king.
back'."
Her status as a foreign princess originally made Minister Dongyou resentful. Sicang had only been on the throne not long ago. The most important thing now was to stabilize the country and stabilize the people. She should not squander power for her own selfish interests and cause dissatisfaction in the court.
Si Cang hummed and gave up the idea for the time being.
"Your Majesty." Eunuch Yuan Hai walked in with a whisk in hand, respectfully reported, "Young Master Huangfu, please see me."
Sicang turned around: "Let him come in."
"yes."
Yun Zishu was slightly surprised: "Didn't he entertain guests for you last night? Why didn't he go home early in the morning to catch up on his sleep?"
Sicang said: "There must be something wrong."
Huangfu Lingfeng stepped through the threshold and entered the Qinzheng Hall. He knelt down and bowed politely: "See the Emperor, see the Queen, and pay my respects to the Emperor and the Queen."
Sicang raised his hand to avoid the ceremony: "You were busy all night last night, why didn't you stay at home to rest?"
Huangfu Lingfeng lowered his eyes: "I have something to report."
Yun Zishu glanced at him, "Do you need me to avoid it?"
"No need." Huangfu Lingfeng lowered his head, "Except for the Emperor and the Queen, everyone else can stay away."
Sicang raised his hand to signal, and Yuan Hai led all the palace attendants in the Qinzheng Palace to retreat.
"It seems that the matter is not trivial." Si Cang walked to the imperial court and sat down, and began to review the memorial, "Let's talk about it."
Huangfu Lingfeng sighed softly, "It's not small, it's not big, it's not big, it just depends on the emperor's thoughts."
Sicang raised his eyes to look at him.
"Ten years ago, when my father led the army to fight, he brought back a child. This child has been raised in Huangfu's family for ten years."
Yun Zishu's eyebrows moved slightly, was he talking about Rong Zhan?
Si Cang is a very keen person. When he heard his words, he understood what he wanted to say, and said in an indifferent tone: "Have you found out his life experience?"
