Vol 2 Chapter 928: Emperor Wen De dies

Brother Yu's marriage?
Ha ha!
Gu Jiu said solemnly, "Before Brother Yu turns 20, his marriage will not be considered for the time being. He is 20 years old, not 20 years old."
Liu Zhao said, "Actually, I am not in a hurry, but I have asked a lot of people recently."
"Don't respond easily." Gu Jiu reminded Liu Zhao.
Liu Zhao laughed, "Don't worry, no one should kiss me without you nodding."
After a pause, he said again: "If someone knows that Yu'er is established as the emperor's grandson, there will be more people who come to the door to say that they are pro-matchers. You have no idea about Yu's marriage? Whose daughter?"
Gu Jiu said, "It's all a group of little girls, and they just said a few words, how can you tell if they are good or bad. Slowly find out."
She is not in a hurry.
Gu Jiu is not in a hurry, and Liu Zhao is certainly not in a hurry.
He remembered that Gu’s men were late in marrying.
For example, Gu Ling had to marry a wife after all three.
Gu Teng was only married in his twenties.
The eldest grandson of the Hou Mansion, Gu Rui, was still young when he married the Jia family. When marrying Zhou Clan, the boss was not too young.
Liu Zhao asked curiously: "Does the Gu family have a tradition of marrying late?"
Gu Jiu said: "The old lady of the Hou Mansion once told me that in the past, women did not marry at 20 and men did not marry at 30. In recent decades, there has been a trend of getting married earlier and earlier. Yes. The old lady has always disagreed with the girl’s marriage at such an early age, and her body has not yet grown well. It is best to marry again at the age of 18. The same is true for men. It may not be a blessing to have a family too early."
Liu Zhao said: "It makes sense. In the future, we will also set a rule for our children and grandchildren. Only when a woman is 18 and a man is over 20 can we get married. You have to be the real age."
Gu Jiu laughed, "I'll talk about this later, don't worry for now."
...
Two days later, Liu Zhao entered the palace.
In front of Liu Zhao, Emperor Wende Liyu was the emperor grandson.
Master Lu wrote the edict himself and made it in one go. With the big seal, there will be legal principles and orthodoxy.
Emperor Wende looked at the edict, very proud. Brother Yu didn't want to be emperor, so he wanted him to be emperor.
Emperor Wen De is like an old child, and he has to go back to the royal brother.
Liu Zhao couldn't bear to look straight.
It is a pity that Emperor Wen De feels that this edict is secret. He couldn't see the scene of Yu Ge'er taking the order.
He urged Liu Zhao, "Train Brother Yu well and don't waste his great talent."
Liu Zhao said: "The stinky boy has a big idea, and he decided to go to the military camp after the New Year to get a training."
"Be ambitious, don't stop him."
Liu Zhao said aggrieved: "Sure enough, it's a generational relationship. My father didn't care about me that much."
"Asshole thing, I will pass you the throne, what else do you want?"
Liu Zhao was upset anyway, humming twice.
Emperor Wende smiled triumphantly, "Who made you less cute than Yu'er when you were a kid."
Liu Zhao's face was heartbroken, "How can Yu brother be cuter than me?"
Emperor Wen De directly sprinkled salt on the wound, "You ask the old man in the palace, you were a coffin face when you were a child, and you are cold to everyone, even half as good as Brother Yu."
Liu Zhao died of anger, "I am not a coffin face, I am a young man."
"Brother Yu is also young and mature, but still cute. Not so begging like you."
It's so angry.
Liu Zhao said: "The father is obviously prejudiced. With so many brothers, who does the father think is cute?"
Emperor Wen De really thought about it seriously,
When the fourth child was a child, he was quite likable, but the older he is, the more he likes to be horny.

"The fourth child is squeamish." Liu Zhao vomited.
"The second child has a sweet mouth."
"The second child is smart and self-righteous." Liu Zhao continued to complain.
Emperor Wende looked at Liu Zhao with disgust, "Anyway, among your brothers, you are the least likable."
Liu Zhao said twice, "The son is the most capable."
"Rolling, I must be mad to talk to you. Let Yu'er enter the palace, or Yu'er will listen while talking."
Emperor Wen De waved his hand and drove Liu Zhao away.
Even if the throne was passed to Liu Zhao, Emperor Wende still disliked Liu Zhao as always, thinking that he was a debt collector.
...
During the third snowfall in Beijing, Emperor Wen De's health became worse.
He summoned all the princes and encouraged them.
The princes cried and cried, very sad.
After that, Emperor Wen De made his decree.
From the second prince to the sixth prince, they were all given titles and titles.
The underage princes are a bit miserable.
They didn't even touch the side of the county king, and a town general sent them away.
For a time, the harem was in distress.
Finally, he entered the palace and gave birth to the prince. As a result, there was no hair.
What can the title of a town general do?
Even the basic prosperity and wealth cannot be guaranteed.
It's so miserable.
The concubines cried to Weiyang Palace.
Empress Pei was gloating, and of course she refused to help her concubines.
The concubines went to Xingqing Palace and cried.
The same prince, your majesty can't favor one another.
The underage princes need the care of their elders even more, and a small general in a small country is a bit of a shame.
Anyway, compared to adult princes, they should also be given the status of a county king.
Facing the cries of his concubines, Emperor Wen De had only one sentence, "My heart has been decided, so I won't say it again."
Emperor Wende ignored the cries of his concubines.
Concubines can only ask their parents for help.
The court also talked a lot about this matter.
Someone asked Emperor Wende to treat all the princes equally.
Emperor Wende said:
Ten fingers have lengths and shortcomings. They cannot be treated equally because they are all princes. Don’t forget that the adult princes did not have a knighthood for more than ten years before, and they still Live under one roof."
The emperor's heart is determined, and no one can change his decision.
This is the end of the matter, the concubines can only pin their hopes on the new emperor Liu Zhao.
Liu Zhao hasn't inherited the throne yet, so he should have a good relationship at this time.
The concubines were inconvenient to contact Liu Zhao, so they tried to contact Gu Jiu. I hope that through Gu Jiu, one day the little princes can be crowned kings.
Gu Jiu was very busy at the end of the year.
For invitations sent to the door, unless necessary, we will refuse all invitations, and we will not give any face to anyone.
And he told the royal brother to be careful when entering the palace and don't let the palace lady take advantage of the loopholes.
"Mother don't worry, the emperor's grandfather also took this issue into consideration and didn't let the palace maid wait close to him. When the son enters the palace, he can't even see the maid who looks like Zhou Zheng."
Gu Jiu smiled and asked, "Feeling wronged?"
"My son just feels that you are too worried about me. It seems that I am an unreliable person in your eyes, and it breaks your heart."
"It's not that you are unreliable, but that people's hearts are unpredictable."
"Son has the basic ability to discern people's hearts."
"I believe you have this ability, and your Majesty also knows that you have this ability. But the palace is different from any place, with unpredictable people, hard to distinguish between loyalty and evil, and all kinds of interests are intertwined. Even experienced people can have the right way. You are barely a fledgling newcomer. It is too easy and simple to calculate you."
Liu Yu's face was heartbroken, and he felt like a weak chicken, unable to fight back.
For a while, he felt that what he had learned in the past was too shallow. It also requires a lot of learning and experience.
...
Liu Yu reads books and newspapers to Emperor Wende every day.
Liu Yugang finished the first edition of the latest issue of "The Great Zhou Life Show".
"Grandfather Emperor, Grandfather Emperor?"
Emperor Wen De seemed to be asleep.
Liu Yu whispered.
After several calls, Emperor Wen De finally woke up.
"Are you finished?" he asked.
Liu Yu shook his head, "It's just time for a stick of incense."
Emperor Wende was stunned for a while, "I thought I slept for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be a stick of incense."
"Will grandson continue to read?" Liu Yu asked cautiously.
Emperor Wen De didn't say a word, and was silent for a long time, before he said, "Call Chang En in, you can withdraw first."
"Grandson obeys!"
Emperor Wende instructed Chang En to announce Liu Zhao, and the ministers met him.
Chang En looked sad, "The old slave calls the imperial physician first."
Emperor Wende waved his hand, "I know my body, and it's useless if the doctor comes."
He felt that the end was approaching.
Chang En choked up and said, "Your Majesty has wronged yourself too much."
Emperor Wende closed his eyes slightly, his words made him feel tired, "Go, let me leave regrets."
"Old slave follows the order."
Liu Zhao and courtiers came to Xingqing Palace.
After being notified, Liu Zhao was invited into the Nuan Pavilion.
"Father!"
Emperor Wen De is very thin and thin. Recently, he has a bad appetite and has eaten very little. People can see that they have lost weight.
Liu Zhao felt uncomfortable.
"Sit down and talk!" Emperor Wen De pointed to the bedside position.
Liu Zhao sat down.
Emperor Wen De said softly: "I don't have much time, I will leave it to you in the Jiangshan Sheji of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I hope you will not let me down. I hope that one day the prairie can really be included in the Great Zhou's territory, and the Northwest Project can go smoothly. carried out."
"The children dare not live up to his father's expectations." Liu Zhao solemnly promised.
Emperor Wen De continued: "The idea is very good for the people to prosper and the country to be strong. How to make money and how to make people's livelihood economy, listen to Gu Jiu's words. She is better than you in this respect."
"Children follow the order!"
"Don't feel that she has crushed you, which is detrimental to your face."
Liu Zhao shook his head repeatedly, "Father, don't worry, Erchen has never thought about it like this. If Erchen is the kind of person who loves face, it is impossible to get along with Gu Jiu for decades."
Emperor Wen De said: "When you become an emperor, your mentality will change. I hope you don't become too powerful."
Liu Zhao said firmly in his eyes: "The children will change, but the only thing that will not change is the feelings for Gu Jiu."
"So, I can rest assured. With your mother, be more patient and tolerant."
"Children know."
"Be more tolerant to your brothers. They have been defeated, they have no capital to turn over, and there is no threat to you."
"Erchen is not a bloodthirsty person." Liu Zhao whispered, "Erchen is not willing to be stained with the blood of his brother."
Emperor Wende heaved a sigh of relief, "It's so good! Cultivate Brother Yu well. Whether the Great Zhou can rejuvenate and break the curse of the 300-year rise and fall of the dynasty depends on your father and son."
That night, Emperor Wen De passed away in his sleep!
Wende came to an end once.
The fourth volume is finished!
