The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 97 Sealing Jiaodong King
Weiyang Palace.

In fact, Wei Ning didn't have any serious health problems. He was just a little sleepy after taking medicine just now. As for the wound on his shoulder, he didn't take it seriously at all.

The injuries he suffered in Northern Xinjiang were more serious than this, but he didn't take it seriously, and he didn't take this minor injury seriously.

He glanced at Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I will go back first."

"Be careful, don't go out easily these days."

This time it was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who asked him to follow him. Wei Ning didn't expect that the situation would become so serious.

Wei Ning didn't know how many people would be killed this time, but with the strong temperament of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he would never let it go.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stared at Weining, was silent for a while, and then said: "I will repair the jade pendant and return it to you as soon as possible."

Wei Ning smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty."

"gone."

Wei Ning waved, turned and left Weiyang Palace.

Snow gradually began to fall outside, and it was a bit cold. Wei Ning took a long breath as soon as he left Weiyang Palace.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought of something, took off his cloak, and said to the eunuch beside him: "Go and give it to Chief Wei, so that he can wear it."

The eunuch was stunned for a moment and reminded: "Your Majesty... there is a golden dragon embroidered on it. Isn't it inappropriate..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty staring at him with a gloomy expression, "Come here! Behead this talkative slave!"

"Su Wen, please send my cloak to Chief Wei."

Su Wen said tremblingly: "Here!"

That eunuch really doesn't know how to live or die. Civil servants can comfort the emperor. They are all the royal servants. What qualifications do they have to advise the emperor on his words and deeds?
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty himself was a murderer, how dare you disobey the emperor?Tired of living!

Wei Ning was a little surprised when he received the cloak from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It was a large velvet leather cloak. It was exquisitely made and very warm. Who would have thought that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would actually give it to me?
I guess it was because I saved him just now and I was moved.

But this is a bit much.

Wei Ning wrapped himself tightly in his cloak and left Chang'an.

……

In Weiyang Palace.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sat in front of a low desk in a daze.

He was already certain that Wei Ning was most likely his eldest son!

Nothing can go wrong, there must be nothing wrong!

He is the blood of our old Liu family, the pure blood of the royal family!His mother is the third wife of the Wei family, and his father is me!

ridiculous!I even scolded his father for being ungrateful. It was not a man's fault and he had no responsibility at all!

Every word is a slap in the face!
This generation of emperors, who had a profound influence on the entire Han Dynasty, seemed a little frightened and uneasy at this time.

He stood up with his hands behind his back and walked back and forth in the Qilin Hall. After a long time, he slowly walked to the desk and sat down again.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was silent for a while, then he picked up the pen with firm eyes, held the wolf hair in his hand, and began to write with burnt ink: This is Liu Ning, the eldest son of the emperor. Thirteen years ago, I visited the Princess Pingyang Mansion to pay homage to my ancestors, and favored the third wife, Ping Jun... Now I confirm that he is the eldest son of my emperor, and now I confer him the title of King of Jiaodong...

This is what Liu Che wrote on the yellow silk while sitting in front of the case.

Not bamboo slips.

Imperial silk is made of silk cloth, which is more solemn. Only rewards from feudal lords and above are written on this to show their glory.

As for the title of King Weining and Jiaodong, the meaning is more complicated.

Over the years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has not given any rewards to his two sons. The reason is more because he has devoted all his energy to foreign wars.Therefore, neither Chen Ajiao's son Liu Huan nor Wei Zifu's son Liu Zhi have any rewards, and they are both raised in the palace as the emperor's concubine.

Now the Han Dynasty has not established a queen, so they cannot be called the emperor's legitimate sons.

Previously, Liu Huan was qualified for this title, but in the end, after Chen Ajiao was deposed, Liu Huan was deprived of this honor.

Now Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty directly conferred the title of Marquis on Weining, the profound meaning of which is self-evident.

King of Jiaodong... But when he was the prince, Emperor Han Jing gave him the title!For Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and for the entire dynasty, this title had far-reaching meaning!

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty finished writing the imperial edict, he said to the outside world: "Come here!"

But soon, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty hesitated again. He waved his hand and asked Su Wen to go down.

After a moment of silence, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty slowly placed the imperial decree in his hand under the bamboo slips.

It's not like he hasn't thought about directly announcing Weining's identity now. From the emperor's point of view, he has no hesitation and that's what he should do.

As the emperor, he should not let his blood suffer outside... although it is not considered to be suffering now.

But what if Weining comes back?

Is he being trained as a successor, or is he just being raised as a prince?
These are two concepts.

He did not have the traditional concept of Zhou rites, and he did not necessarily need the eldest son inheritance system, because he himself did not inherit the throne as the eldest son.

If he is trained according to his successor, does he have the ability and courage?

The future succession of the Han Empire needs to be controlled by someone with a will similar to his own, who can lead the Han Dynasty to a more glorious place!
He needs to test Weining.

There is another problem that is also very serious. Weining has been away for more than ten years and has never been in contact with any high-ranking officials. If he is brought back hastily, it will only put him in an awkward position.

He will not deal with those officials now, but now he can avoid them and not come into contact with them. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will not say anything and just let it go.

But what if he takes power in the future?Accepting them, controlling them, and subduing them are all methods you must have. Only in this way can you ensure the long-term stability of the throne.

The second point is that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty owed Weining because of his father's identity, and Weining now seems to feel very guilty about his father.

Now he may not accept this identity.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty could see that Weining was very stubborn and he might not covet the opportunity of wealth and honor that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought.

That kid never cared about that.

These are some of the temperaments Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has discovered about Weining these days.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty pondered for a while, then stood up and walked out full of thoughts.

……

Wuyuan Palace.

Chen Ajiao comforted Liu Huan for a while, and then said to him: "Your father is very depressed right now."

"Go find your father. Do you still remember that witchcraft dream?"

This is an opportunity. The reason that Chen Ajiao made up at that time has now come true!
At that time, she asked Liu Huan to tell Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that if he dreamed of witchcraft, the emperor would be in danger.

This assassination just confirmed the prophecy of this dream. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would be more convinced of this, and he would also think highly of Liu Huan!
This is a great opportunity, an opportunity for Liu Huan to be favored again!

Therefore, how could Chen Ajiao not let Liu Huan seize the opportunity, take one position, and live in the palace? If she didn't fight for it, she would be a fool!

"You brought some food and went to see your father. He was talking about things through witchcraft dreams. Just say this..."

Chen Ajiao whispered to Liu Huan.
