Vol 2 Chapter 1099: Kid wisdom

Liu Zhao's body is all traces of old wounds.
Big scars, small scars, layer upon layer.
Over time, the scar has disappeared a lot.
Individual scars are still terrifying.
He just finished massage, put on plasters, twisted his neck, and felt better.
Gu Jiu asked him, "Is it better?"
"The plaster you prepared is more effective than the plaster from Taiyuan Hospital. It is very powerful."
After speaking, he still gave a thumbs up.
Gu Jiu snorted.
Snapped!
A piece of plaster was put on his neck again.
"If it's not for the pain to scream in the middle of the night, are you planning to keep it from me?"
This is a typical questioning the teacher.
Liu Zhao had a countermeasure.
He chuckled, pretending to be honest, "I am also afraid that you are worried."
Gu Jiu rolled his eyes at him, "It's clear to be brave! Do you really think you are a twenty-year-old boy? I think you have a brain drain."
After speaking, he stretched out a finger and poked him on the head.
Liu Zhao took the opportunity to grab her hand and said, "Don't be angry. I promise that if there is any physical discomfort, I will not hide it from you."
Gu Jiu sullen his face, never giving him a good face.
"As for you, rest in Xiaozhu at ease. There is a boss in the palace to help you watch, so you don't need to worry about it."
"All listen to you, all listen to you. Or I will directly make a will to let the boss supervise the country."
"Don't put him on the fire. We live in Xiaozhu, which is so close to the capital. If you make a clear order for the imperial brother to supervise the country, courtiers should think wildly and give birth to a lot of right and wrong for no reason."
"The queen is right, I listen to the queen."
Liu Zhao murmured again, "I'm not as important as the stinky boy Yuge."
"What are you whispering about?"
Liu Zhao denied it, "I didn't say anything."
Gu Jiu kneaded his neck in a concentrated manner, "Is it still sore?"
Liu Zhao said: "Much better! Comfortable! The queen cares about me most!"
Snapped!
A slap on Liu Zhao's back.
"Speak less sweet talk, less flattery. Do you think you are coaxing me, I don't care about what you are hiding from me? Daydreaming! I will keep talking about you until you are annoying."
Liu Zhao raised his hand and surrendered. He was afraid of Gu Jiu's words.
...
Early in the morning, Liu Yu came to Xiaozhu with a basket of memorials.
When he saw that the father and the queen had been cleaned up by the mother, he could not stop laughing.
Liu Zhao had nothing to do with Gu Jiu, but he was very good at dealing with his son.
With a stern face, he pointed to Liu Yu, "Bring me here! I see you..."
Liu Zhao began to talk and talk about it in front of his son.
Gu Jiu secretly rolled his eyes, got up and left, leaving space for the father and son.
Liu Yu was miserable, and the two hours of suffering finally ended. He ran to Gu Jiu for comfort and help.
"Mother and queen, you have to take care of the father and the emperor! He is nagging more and more. Ten years ago, everything from when I was a child was revealed."
Gu Jiu said, "Your father has suffered from the pain of old wounds these days, and he can't sleep all night and all night. He is really irritable, so bear with him."
"Isn't my father's illness alleviated?"
"Slightly relieved, but the symptoms are not the root cause. He was injured in the past and the conditions were simple, and there is no way to treat it properly. Now he gets older, his body starts to hurt. If you want to learn from your father, you must cherish your body."
"The son listens to the mother! Or the son stays in Xiaozhu and spends time with his father."
"No need! Your father is very busy. In the hall you will stare for your father, and report anything in time."
"The Chaotang has been quite calm for some time recently. Because of the drought, they have been fighting for a while, and now most people have died. No matter how the disturbance, ten taxes and one tax will not change. This period of time is estimated to be the best. No longer, some people exchanged their fields for shares in the Shaofu Food Bank."
Gu Jiu exhorted: "Watch more and strive for a peaceful year."
"Children follow the order!"
...
Handing over the government affairs to Liu Yu, Liu Zhao rarely has time to spend some leisure time.
It's just that these leisure days are too long, and I miss the busy days all day.
Gu Jiu pressed him and prevented him from returning to the palace.
Her attitude is unquestionable, "We will return to the palace until the Chinese New Year. How about you, take the opportunity to raise your body. Once your body is good, you can handle government affairs well, instead of just smashing cups and kicking stools, pointing to the courtier’s face again. The threat of ransacking your home is also a threat of decapitation. Tell me about you, after being an emperor for so many years, why didn't you learn to get along well with courtiers and discuss things with everyone."
"It's not that I am unwilling to discuss with the courtiers, but that the courtiers refuse to speak."
Liu Zhao was righteous and confident, and put all the responsibilities on the courtiers.
Gu Jiu gave him a white look, "The courtiers refuse to speak well, and you refuse to speak well. It becomes a situation where the tip of the needle is against the wheat. Are you tired?"
"The courtiers are not tired, of course I am not tired."
"The courtiers have changed batch after batch. You are alone. You can't get angry with them every day. If you understand the courtiers' working style, you should deal with them in a different way."
Liu Zhao shook his head, very stubborn. "My style is to go straight and do it with a real sword. If you ask me to change it, I feel uncomfortable."
Come on!
She was worried for nothing.
It seemed that he was having fun with the courtiers.
Gu Jiu stopped persuading him.
The palace man reported, "Your Majesty, Qi Qi, Niang Niang, there is a monk outside asking for a meeting. He said it was an appointment with Niang Niang."
When Gu Jiu heard this, he immediately ordered: "Send someone to the Flower Hall and don't embarrass him."
"Old slave obeys!"
The palace man retreated.
Gu Jiu said to Liu Zhao: "It's time for us to pay off the debt."
Liu Zhao hesitated, "I won't come forward. The hopeless letter was originally reserved for you. You can make up your mind about this matter."
"Row!"
Gu Jiu cleaned up and came to the flower hall.
A young monk stood in the middle of the hall.
The top of the head is shiny, and the back is straight.
When the monk heard the movement, he turned around, "Little monk pays respects to the empress!"
Gu Jiu was in a daze, "May I ask the monk's law name? What is your relationship with Master Wuwang?"
"The little monk is called Zhitong, and Master Wuwang is the little monk's master. This is a letter that the master gave to the little monk before his death, please read it."
Monk Zhitong took out a well-preserved letter from his arms.
Xu Yousi accepted the letter and made sure that it was safe, and then it was handed over to Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu stared at Monk Zhitong's cheek in a trance.
She came back to her senses and greeted each other to sit down.
The letter is a handwritten letter left by hopelessness. The content is short. It only says that Zhitong was the baby he picked up when he went west to Xiliang, and he was accepted as an apprentice, and he was recorded in Xiangguo Temple.
Gu Jiu put away the letter, feeling very embarrassed.
She said: "Master Wuwang was ordered to return to Beijing. When he met in the capital, the palace knew that his body was exhausted. It was a miracle to be able to support his return to the capital. Taoist Xuanqing Later, he also wrote to this palace. He wanted to persuade Wuwang not to return to Beijing. After all, the journey is so long that Master Wuwang’s physical condition may not be able to return to the capital alive. However, Master Wuwang insisted on returning to Beijing and could not listen to anyone. Dissuade. Fortunately, he successfully returned to the capital."
Zhitong called the Buddha horn, "Amitabha! The little monk was supposed to go back to Beijing with the master, but the master arranged a few tasks for the little monk. In desperation, the younger monk could only accompany the master to return to Beijing. After finishing the task assigned by Master, he hurried back to the capital. Master has passed away for one year. Master abbot handed Master’s relics to the little monk, including the letter in the hands of the empress. In the letter, the master asked the little monk to find the queen empress this winter. , But it didn't say what to do. Please show me the empress."
Gu Jiu sighed, "Before he died, Master Wuwang also left a letter to the palace. His body is exhausted and the lamp is dead. He is in retreat and meditates in order to leave quietly. But he still has a wish that has not yet been finalized. To this palace, I hope this palace can help him complete it."
"I wonder if Master has not fulfilled his wish?" Monk Zhitong asked.
Gu Jiu looked at Zhitong's face and saw a familiar shadow on his face.
She was in a daze again, but this time she recovered quickly, "How did you get to your master?"
Zhitong folded his hands together and said the Buddha's horn, "Amitabha! The little monk is an abandoned baby picked up by Master on the way to Xiliang. The little monk is very lucky to meet Master and have been with him for many years."
"Do you know who your parents are?" Gu Jiu asked carefully.
The young Zhitong already has the style of a hopeless little monk.
He shook his head slightly, "The little monk is an abandoned baby and a child of Buddhism. It doesn't matter who his biological parents are. The master is not only my master, but in the eyes of the little monk, he is the little monk's father."
Gu Jiu nodded, "You are right."
She controlled her emotions, "Have you ever wondered about your parents? Have you ever thought of finding them?"
Zhitong looked calm, "Never curious, never thought about it."
Gu Jiu smiled, "It's so good! Your father...your master's unfulfilled wish, he wants to set up a cloak mound in Beiman Mountain, looking at the imperial tomb in the distance."
Zhitong was a little confused, "Little monk doesn't understand."
Gu Jiu said softly: "Your master's life is colorful and will definitely leave a strong mark in the history books. You will comment on the merits and demerits of your own. It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you just need to remember that your master wants to watch A certain direction of the tomb."
Zhitong nodded, "Thank you, Niang Niang! The little monk still keeps the clothes and supplies of Master's life, so he will go back to check the address of the tomb for Master and set up a burial mound for Master."
Gu Jiu laughed, "The palace has chosen the location of the tomb for Master Wuwang two years ago, and the underground palace has been completed, and it is on Beiman Mountain. You prepare your master's relics and bury it on the next day."
Zhitong folded his hands together and said, "Thank you Niang Niang! The little monk wants to see Master's grave first, and ask Niang Niang to be accommodating."
"This palace will arrange for someone to take you to Beiman Mountain."
"Xie Niangniang! The little monk has another question, I don't know if it should be a question."
Gu Jiu said with a smile, "You can ask."
"The little monk didn't understand why the cloak mound was not erected when the master passed away. It will not be erected until two years later."
Gu Jiu deliberated, "There are two reasons! The first reason is that he wants to wait for you to come back, and you will set up the mound for him. The second reason is that he wants to fulfill the empress dowager and fulfill her wish."
"The little monk doesn't understand, what does this matter have to do with the empress dowager?" Zhitong was raised by hopelessness and asked if he was used to any questions.
Gu Jiu took the trouble and patiently answered him.
"The empress dowager has grievances in her heart. Master Wuwang wants to use her own death to calm the grievances in her heart, so that she can leave without any regrets. By this month, the queen mother's twenty-seven months of filial piety will just be over. Give the hopeless master a crown. it's time to."
"Are the master and the empress dowager familiar?"
"No! They are not familiar. They are only implicated because of one person."
"Oh!"
Zhitong didn't ask because who was involved.
Gu Jiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but also a little regretful.
She clearly saw a familiar shadow on Zhitong's face.
She couldn't help asking, "Did your master ever say who you look like?"
Zhitong nodded, "Master once said that the little monk looks like an old person. Because of this, he decided to accept the little monk as a disciple, instead of sending the little monk to the villagers to raise him."
"What else did your master say?"
"Master asked the little monk to go back to Xiliang and have a look."
Gu Jiu laughed, "There will be a chance."
"Thank you Niang Niang, little monk goodbye!"
