The imperial palace of Chu state
In the imperial study, Chu Zirui is writing hard. There are a lot of memorials in front of him. Ten years, it seems that his face has not changed much, the only change may be his eyes.
This year's state of Chu is an eventful time. Natural and man-made disasters emerge in endlessly, which makes him live a heavy life every day. He always felt guilty when he thought of those innocent and poor people.
"Father King..."
The door of the study creaks and someone pushes it open. A dignified man comes in and sees Chu Zirui with his brow locked. He calls softly.
This man is Chu Hao, the son of Xiao Hui and ye Ranran. He is 21 years old. He was very popular with the people of Chu.
"Sit down..."
After finishing the last word, Chu Zirui handed the memorial to the old eunuch and motioned him to deal with the rest. Then he took a cup of tea and drank it while looking at his more and more promising son.
Although the child was not born to him, he had a wonderful relationship with him. He didn't raise him in vain
"Father, there is a rare flood disaster in Dancheng in the north. I have sent someone to deal with it..."
Instead of sitting down, Chu Hao goes to the back of Chu Zirui and pinches his shoulder for him. During this period, disaster after disaster, father busy day and night, the body is about to collapse.
He just felt distressed when he saw it. In the face of a man who was not his own father, but brought him up, he always respected him as his own father.
His father did not even enter the harem for him. He knew how deep the feeling was.
"Alas, it's a bad time, a bad time..."
Hearing the speech, Chu Zirui just gave a bitter smile. Recently, he has heard so much news that he has no way to show too much response to these disasters.
What did Chu do wrong? God wants to punish Chu like this. It's all the innocent people
"Father, I have already discussed with the national master. We want to take the jinlingzhu out to sacrifice to heaven and use it to stop all the next disasters for the state of Chu. What do you think?"
Jin Lingzhu is a national treasure of Chu state. If he didn't have to, he didn't want to take it out. The national teacher has already calculated that in the next few years, the state of Chu will also suffer from disasters. If we don't stop those disasters, I'm afraid the vitality of Chu will be greatly affected.
He knew it was a difficult decision, but they were desperate. Who can stop the natural disaster except jinlingzhu?
"Well, jinlingzhu is a treasure of Chu. You know the rules of our ancestors. I'm afraid the ancestors won't be willing to sacrifice gold beads to heaven... "
Chu Zirui's body is slightly stiff. He knows his son. If he doesn't have no other way, he won't ask for it.
The importance of jinlingzhu to the Chu royal family, unless the Chu state to a life and death, otherwise jinlingzhu is absolutely can't move.
"Rules are dead and people are alive. We can't make more people homeless or even lose their lives because of one rule, can we? Father Huang, the national master has calculated that in the next five years, the state of Chu will have many disasters every year. If we don't stop those disasters, the state of Chu will be destroyed once its national strength is depleted... "
Yes, Xiling and Chu had signed non aggression treaties, but those treaties have now passed a hundred years, and the current emperor of Xiling directly regarded those treaties as nothing. If their national strength declines, I'm afraid the people of Chu will face an endless war.
He didn't want the state of Chu to go that far. The only way he could do it was to take the jinlingzhu out to worship heaven. As long as the disaster of Chu is over, they don't have to be afraid of Xiling.
"What you said is also a reason. In this way, my father will first summon a few informed important ministers to discuss, and will immediately send someone to inform you of the result."
Chu Hao's request, he never seems to have refused. The child devoted himself to the state of Chu. He always saw his heart in his eyes. This child already had the courage of a country emperor, this Chu state perhaps is time to hand over to him.
He has worked hard for the state of Chu for more than 20 years, and he is tired. I just want to find a quiet place to stay and enjoy my life.
"Well, I'm sure the ministers won't have any opinions. Father, these memorials will never be finished. You'd better go back and have a rest. "
Chu Zirui let go, and Chu Hao knew that it was not a big problem. Looking at Chu Zirui's exhausted face, he was very worried.
During this period, his father's health went from bad to worse. The imperial doctors had warned him many times, but he didn't listen. Working hard for our country day and night, something will happen if it goes on like this.
"I can't sleep. As soon as I close my eyes, I think of the displaced people. Alas..."
Although the natural disaster is not what he can stop, but as a successful emperor, he still has no way to be safe. He suddenly remembered the carefree days before. If he had not been an emperor, if he had not met his grandmother's reincarnation, maybe he would still linger in the flowers and be ecstatic every night.
"Next time I see my mother, I have to ask her for some herbs. I'm really worried about my father's body..." facing Chu Zirui's sigh, Chu Hao doesn't know how to persuade her. Father Huang was a good emperor. He did everything he could to make Chu strong. Twenty years later, with a flick of his finger, his father had already brought Chu to a height that no one could match. Had it not been for these natural and man-made disasters, Chu's national strength would not have such a great impact“ It's not a bad thing to die... "Chu Zirui smiles and refuses Chu Hao's kindness. For him now, there is no difference between living and dead. When the beloved woman is not around, he will always face only these endless memorials. But for this child, he thought he would not have been able to survive“ What does Father Huang say? What do I do when you die? I haven't married a concubine, and I haven't given birth to a grandson to my father. " Chu Hao's hand can't help but use a little force. For him, his father is his greatest reliance. If his father left, he would be in agony. Their father and son have been living together for so many years that neither of them can leave the other. He remembered the scenes when his father taught him how to speak, how to write and how to do martial arts. Each scene made him feel warm and worried. He really wanted to ask his father how much he loved him so much. To a child who is not his own son is so attentive, even better than his own son“ Then you should marry a concubine and have a son as soon as possible, and your father and Emperor will not have to work hard for the state affairs, but also for you... "Chu Hao's words made Chu Zirui smile at last. In the past few years, he has urged him countless times. He just didn't want to marry a concubine, and the reason is very simple, that is, he didn't meet the woman he liked. He is very helpless, many times want to tell him, in this world want to find the beloved woman is really difficult. Even if found, you may not be able to live with that woman“ Well, when the disaster of Chu is over, I will marry a concubine and never break my promise. " Chu Hao's hand pauses, seems to think of something, the corners of his mouth hang a trace of kindness and smile. When the sacrifice to heaven is over, it's time for him to go to her and show his heart. He's old and big, too. It's time to get married“ Which girl do you like? " Chu Zirui noticed something from Chu Hao's abnormal behavior. He turned to look at him with a smile and asked. If the child had not already had the right person, he would not have let go. The child's luck is good after all. I hope that the woman he likes can also like him“ I don't know which family she is? I don't know her name? But my father must have heard of her. She is a miracle doctor of the state of Chu... "Chu Hao scratched his head, a little embarrassed, because it was just his wishful thinking, and he had not asked the meaning of the girl's family. He looked at Chu Zirui, a little uneasy. After all, his future wife will be the queen of the state of Chu, a woman without the influence of his mother's family. Will his father object“ Great doctor. Well, she's a good girl. Haohao, it's hard to meet someone you like in life. Although she is not the ideal daughter-in-law candidate in his father's mind, he believes that since you have chosen her, you will be able to deal with some problems caused by her. " Chu Zirui pats Chu Hao's hand, with a clear smile on the corner of his mouth. He won't stop the child from marrying any woman, as long as the child likes it. He believed that the child had the ability to deal with the old things in the court. Doctor, in fact, is also good, at least can take good care of Haohao's body... "Thank you for your father's understanding, she is very good, will be filial to him in the future." Chu Hao finally happy smile, father emperor can understand him, really very rare. In the future, he will take good care of his father. Their family will live happily and make up for the lack of his father in these years“ What do you want to thank? Why did the father and son say that? Well, you have a lot of things to do. Hurry up. My father immediately sent someone to inform those important ministers to enter the palace, and soon there will be an answer. " Chu Zirui gets up, moves his stiff body and pats his son's strong shoulder, which is a great comfort in his heart. With this child, he felt that his life was not too much regret. After the disaster, he believed that they would have a good life in the future... "Then I'll be busy first. As soon as my father has news, he will send someone to the national master's office. I'll discuss some details with the national master." Chu Hao grabs his hair, smiles honestly, turns around and walks out of the study. This time will be over soon. Maybe he can go to see her first. I haven't seen her for a few days. In fact, I really want to. The door opened, and the warm sunshine fell on him, pulling his shadow long. He strode forward with a faint smile
