Chapter 42: Tired old father

"His Royal Highness, Yun Han came out of the Dali Temple dungeon and on the way to the quarry, he accidentally encountered three pedestrians and prisoners who had contact with him, all under our surveillance." The gave the prince a hesitant look. "Also, the master of Fushou County only handed him a plate of pastries, but he has been snatched away by other prisoners. I can't see the suspiciousness for a while.
"The Lord Fushou County is the daughter of General Hua and General Wei. It is absolutely impossible to collude with these anti-thieves of unknown origin." The prince said directly, "Huawei's two generations of Zhongliang have contributed to the history of the Jin Dynasty. If you have a counter-intention, you will not desperately fight Jin Po without any backhand. If you doubt the master of Fushou County, you will deny the two generals for their contribution to the Jin Dynasty. Don't mention this in the future."
"Yes." The approached the ground with his head, "The slave-servant missed the word, please forgive him."
The prince glanced at him with a faint tone: "A lot of things, don't make self-righteous guesses about Liangchen until there is no evidence."
"Yes." The shivered.
"Your Highness." The guard outside the carriage said in a loud voice: "Yanlai Lake is here."
The prince lifted the curtain and walked off the carriage, turned around and glanced back. Hualili also came down from the carriage, and the silk on her body fluttered gently in the wind.
"The Lord of the County." The prince walked to Hualiuli. "In the front is the smoke coming to the lake. When it rains, the lake seems to be surrounded by fairy clouds. The viewers canoe on the lake as if roaming the clouds."
Hua Liuli noticed that there was a painting boat on the lake. On the boat stood the guard eunuch, as well as several court ladies in colorful clothes.
"Come on, let's get on the boat." The prince boarded the ship with Hua Liuli, and the hull shook slightly.
There were several musicians sitting on their knees, and when they saw the prince and Hua Liuli coming in, they quickly got up and saluted.
Smelling the faint scent in Fang, Hua Liuli said: "Thank you, Your Highness."
"Lonely said I would like to invite you to listen to the performance of the musicians in the palace, and how can you say something." I don't know what kind of tea is being cooked in the teapot on the tea table, exuding a light fragrance.
"Knowing that you can't drink tea, so people made boiled water soup." The prince invited Hualili to sit down, "Whether it tastes greasy."
Hua Liuli took the tea cup and took a sip. The sweetness wrapped the tea fragrance. After the entrance, it was sweet to her belly. Hua Liuli smiled and said: "Drinking this tea, I feel that I am all smelling."
"The master likes it." The prince raised her hand and the musicians began to play. The first song they played was not a soft southern minor, but a battlefield song.
Hualili's hand holding the teacup slightly, she turned to look at the luthier, listening very seriously.
As long as the soldiers are on the battlefield, life and death are not something they can decide. Dad once said that as a military general, he hoped that what he learned in his life would be useful, and he hoped that there would be no more wars in the world.
The battlefield is ruthless. Behind a number is the life of a person. The person who died may be missing someone in his hometown, or there may be someone waiting for him to go back.
The only thing that can be thankful is that your majesty is a good emperor who does not treat the sergeants harshly. The soldiers can eat enough, and if the soldiers die unluckily, they also have a generous pension.
Dad often told her to her brothers that the good general Yu Mingjun was the best opening and ending for the generals and emperors. He was lucky and met Emperor Changlong. But the luck of the Huajia is not so good for every generation, so how to save their strength to survive has become the instinct of almost every generation of the Huajia.
Compared with the ghost crying wolf howling of the frontier soldiers, the musicians' playing is more pleasant, but it has a little less free and easy taste of the frontier.
"Qi Yue has no clothes and shares the same robe with the son." Hua Liuli followed the tune and grunted, laughing. "His Royal Highness, these musicians play really interesting songs, but it's a pity that the courtiers' talents in leading the war, It’s not as good as the father and mother, so I can only listen to these songs and entertain myself."
"There are no two people in the world who are completely similar. General Hua and General Wei are indeed rare talents, but the master of the county also has his own style, and there is no need to compare with others or elders." The prince refilled Hualili's cup, " In the eyes of the people who love Chongjun, you are unique."
Hua Liuli looked at the prince with a smile: "If your Highness wants to boast a person, you will be able to boast this person with enthusiasm."
"The lord said this wrongly." The prince chuckled, "The lonely never praises people, only speak the truth."
Hualili couldn't help laughing.
Men, especially good-looking men, when they praise people, their voices can be as beautiful as natural sounds.
This flower-colored glass was accompanied by a beautiful prince, and it was boating on the lake. Prince Ava, who was a captive in that box, could only sit in an empty dungeon and play with straw on the ground.
Today, many prisoners have been taken to the quarry. He has a special status. He neither serves in labor nor participates in other collective activities with the prisoners. I can only stay in a single cell every day and live in a daze.
Although the prisoners were too lazy to care about him at least, they could at least listen to their chats, and now there are not even those who speak.
Staying this way, his brain will become a pig brain sooner or later.
"Prince Ava." Pei Jihuai walked outside the cell and looked at Awa, who was playing grass, and said blankly: "It seems that the prince is doing well in our Dali Temple, and his waistline is two fat."
Awa glared at Pei Jihuai, but he didn't dare to retort. It was him who had made him hungry for a few days.
Pei Jihuai raised his hand, and everyone else retreated, leaving him alone.
"You, what do you want to do?" Ava saw the others walked away, and backed up again and again, until he touched the root of the wall, he said anxiously: "Something to say, lynching is wrong."
"His Royal Highness misunderstood the official. Today is the Huazhao Festival. It is a very lively festival in our Jin Dynasty. The official fears that the Royal Highness will be bored, so he comes here to accompany you." Take it down and put it on the table at hand, "It's still too early, let's talk about some of your hobbies and interests in the royal family."
Avali straightened and said: "I am the father's favorite son, only others remember my hobbies, not me to care about their truth."
"Oh?" Pei Jihuai raised an eyebrow. He put his hand on the scabbard, his index finger stayed there for a moment, and made a dull sound.
Awa was upset by these voices in his heart: "Otherwise, let's talk about another topic I know?"
"Okay." Pei Jihuai slowly withdrew his hand and said slowly, "Just talk about why you want to see Lord Fushou County."
Awa's face became extremely ugly, he gritted his teeth and said: "Your Dajin women are all tricky poison women!"
Uh!
The shining Dali Temple guard knife was pulled out of the scabbard, reflecting the frost-like light in the dim dungeon. Pei Jihuai clenched the knife handle and looked at Awa calmly: "His Royal Highness, the officer just did not seem to have heard the sentence just now. Please speak again."
"I mean, all of your women in Dajin are smart and beautiful, like the Moon God."
"Thank you His Highness for the praise of the women of the country. In this matter, the officer and the Highness have similar views." Pei Jihuai inserted the knife back into the scabbard. "Please continue to speak."
Awa's face changed from time to time, but at the end of his life, he chose to continue the conversation.
"I met the owner of Fushou County in your country a year ago..."
A year ago, after the death of General Tupuka, General of the Golden Perkins, the royals of the Royal Perkins were panic-stricken, and Ava volunteered and decided to mix into the Hanjia Army base camp in Qinghanzhou to inquire about the truth.
After mixing into Qinghan Prefecture, he learned that Hua Yingting had a young girl named Liuli who loved the pearl. This young woman was innocent, kind-hearted and very popular with the locals.
Awa, who is known as a beautiful man in Jinpo, had other thoughts. He wanted to be close to Hualili, even if he could not get a military, he could deceive her out of the city and take her as a hostage.
Before the plan began, Ava made many preparations, compiled a story of "Mother was taken away by the Jinbo people, became a slave, and he was tortured to death", and stayed in Qinghanzhou as a businessman.
In order to gain the trust of Hua Liuli, he also sent a lot of medicinal materials to the people for free, so that Hua Liuli believed that he was a kind person.
In the middle of the ramifications, Awang did not want to tell Pei Jihuai. Anyway, his plan was successful. He lied to Hualili and took several maidservants out of the city with him.
On the night when he brought Hualiuli back to his base camp, the granary in the barracks suddenly caught fire and the Huajiajun raided. He had just returned to the big tent to change into a shirt and was by the maids next to Hualiuli Got up.
The women blocked his mouth and hid him in the suitcase, while Hualili hid in another box, pretending to be missing with him.
"The second prince and the newly brought little beauty escaped!"
I don't know who is screaming, and the army's heart is completely chaotic.
Someone entered his military account and saw jewels scattered all over the place. They were about to talk about gold and silver jewels and fled, but they were found by other deserters and finally twisted into a ball.
He just watched the soldiers brought by him was beaten by the Huajia Army without help, and he was also captured.
"I didn't expect you to lie to me. It turns out that you are the second prince of Jinbo Kingdom." Hua Liuli covered her face and wept, "Is it you who led troops to attack my borders in Dajin and slaughtered tens of thousands of innocent people?"
As she cried, she picked up a stinky shoe on the ground and pumped it on his face.
"Why are you so bad? Boom."
"Do you still have humanity? Bang Bang Bang"
I don’t know what happened to this woman. I was so sick that I had to breathe in two steps, but when I twitched his face, I was very energetic. .
"The county lord, you are weak and can't be sad. The slave-maid waits to collect all the gold and silver jewelry in this camp account, and go to open a charity hall?"
"Yes, yes, although this Ava should be worth a thousand dollars, but I heard that the old King Jinbo valued him very much, we can take him as a hostage, and when Kim Pok-guo signed a surrender letter, he would pay more compensation. It’s a blessing for the people."
The maidservants said while searching for things, even the jewels embedded in his bed were picked with a knife, and no valuable thing was left behind.
In the end, under the watch of tens of thousands of flowers, he was tied to death by several women and dragged out of the military account like a dog, without the dignity of a prince.
This past has become Awa's shame and nightmare. Until now, he will still dream of the scene when Hualili pumps his face with a smelly shoe. Every time he wakes up, it is cold sweat.
Ava talked about things in a hurry, and many embarrassing details were not revealed, but Pei Jihuai still pieced together the outline of the matter.
"You mean, you have been lurking in Qinghanzhou for half a year, just to gain the trust of Lord Fushou County?" Pei Jihuai glanced at Awa's chubby face, and could not see the original contoured face. What misunderstanding did the prince think about the Lord Fushou County?
If you don’t talk about others, just say that the three sons of the Hua family also have a handsome face. The Lord Fushou County looks at his beautiful face every day. Will he be fascinated by someone who claims to be miserable?
Taking a step back, he said that even if the eyes of the Lord of Fushou suddenly had a problem, he really believed Awa's rhetoric and could not follow Awa casually out of the city.
People are kind and simple, not brain water?
What kind of self-confidence is this that the grand daughter of the general will throw away everything and follow him?
I thought I had calculated everything, but it has already become a in the eyes of others. This prince Ava was so stupid that he sent meat to his door, and everyone felt embarrassed if he didn't eat it.
"Something may not be known to your Highness, but that's not to blame you, after all, it was 15 years ago." A smile appeared on Pei Jihuai's face, "Five years ago, spies from your country sneaked into the blue In less than three days, Hanzhou was discovered by General Wei and killed at the scene."
Ava froze: "What do you mean?"
"The spies of your country were in Qinghan Prefecture, and after only three days, they were discovered by General Wei. What do you think you can do to stay in Qinghanzhou for the first half of the year and still take away the two most loved daughters? Pei Jihuai chuckled, "Did you be stupid?"
"She was lying to me, she was lying to me!" Ava said angrily. "She has known my identity from the beginning, right?!"
Pei Jihuai ignored Awa's anger, he stood up and said slowly: "The conversation today is very pleasant, we will have another chance to talk next time."
"Go! Go for me!" Awa couldn't believe it. He fell into the trap of Hualili from the beginning. Everything was just an accident.
When he first met Hualili, she saw that a little rabbit was injured, she would bandage it with a handkerchief, and she would put the fish that accidentally jumped ashore into the water when it rained and the tide, how could such a woman So smart.
Impossible, impossible!
"There is a river in Qinghan Prefecture, and there are many fish. Sometimes after heavy rain, the weather is boring, and the fish will jump up on their own." Hua Liuli told the prince about the fun of the border. "The fire-head soldiers took these fish All fished up, taken back to the barracks and boiled in a large pot, sometimes there are too many fish, but also can be distributed to the people."
"In winter, the river is frozen, and the soldiers worry that the beasts will hurt the people when they are hungry. They will regularly go to the mountains to search. Sometimes they hunt for rabbit robes or the like, and they roast and eat a special fragrance." Hua Liuli took a sip. "Unfortunately, the subjects and daughters are not in good health. Many times they can only smell. The third brother often mixes with the soldiers and eats a lot of game."
"Although the governor is weak, rabbit meat and roe deer meat can also be eaten, but it is not suitable to eat more." The prince took the words, "There are people who sent these meats alone. I will send someone to pick up the master tomorrow. Please taste it."
Hua Liuli replied: "This is too much trouble for your Highness."
"Actually, loneliness is also selfish." The prince laughed. "The grandmother was nagging at you for three days. It is just now that the first lunar month is over. Her elderly want to keep you in the palace for a few days. You can make the orphan be a messenger. Her old man."
"That's bother." Hua Liuli was amused by the prince's words. "The servant girl looked at it, the queen mother loves the prince very much. Even if you don't act as a messenger, you are also the mother-in-law's sweetheart."
The two were talking, and suddenly there was a ripple on the lake, and a big fish jumped into the boat.
The servant stooped down and grabbed the fish: "His Royal Highness is a dragon. This fish jumps on your painting by yourself.
"It's better to eat it. This fish teriyaki is the most delicious."
The eunuch: ? ?
"The lord said it right, the heavens are delicious. If you don't eat it, wouldn't it be a waste of God's intentions." The prince ordered the next man, "Lone remember that a cook came and asked him to braise this fish and then mix it. Serve a few small dishes and bring them together."
"Yes." The withdrew the struggling fish and quit the painting.
If this is encountered by other His Royal Highnesses, it might be raised as an auspicious fish for the Yulong Dragon Gate. It's a pity, who let him meet His Highness?
"It's your blessing to be eaten by your Highness." The jumped into the boat, took the boat back to the shore, and gave the fish to the cook.
"His Royal Highness does not like to eat fish. You can make a few more foods that His Royal Highness eats at a faster rate. You can't let His Royal Highness wait for a long time with the county master." He hurried back to the painting.
He couldn't let other eunuchs please betrayal before the temple.
The chefs in the East Palace not only have excellent cooking skills, but also move fast. Although the braised fish hasn't come up yet, other dishes have already come up.
Hua Liuli was eating delicious food, with emotion: "It's such a good day."
"So I am grateful to the two generals from the bottom of my heart." The crown prince and Hua Liuli touched the glass and drank the toilet water from the cup. "Because there are two generals, the surrounding countries are afraid to offend me. Jin. The prince and I can leisurely go boating on the lake with the lord to enjoy the scenery."
"Prince is not right." Hua Liuli shook his head. "Father and mother will only fight to kill the enemy, and really let the people live and work in peace, without worrying about the people who are scared. It is His Majesty."
"Whether it is a flower family, or the people of the world, the luckiest thing is to meet a Mingjun who loves the people like a son." She looked at the prince, silent for a moment, and continued: "The courtier believes that Dajin's The future will be so good."
Therefore, despite your concern, Your Highness misses the deceased, but for the sake of the people of the world, please persevere.
The Prince's heart moved slightly, and he saw trust in Hua Liuli's eyes.
"Sovereign, believe in loneliness?"
"Sisters and daughters believe in His Majesty's vision, and they also believe in the Prince." The Hua Family is always loyal to the Emperor, and the Prince is the Emperor's favorite heir, so they will never stand on the opposite side of the Prince.
"Lonely note."
In Chenyang Palace, Emperor Changlong folded the last book and looked at the sky that was gradually darkening outside: "Sancai, what time is it?"
"Your Majesty, it's already a moment, but you want to hold the lantern?" Zhao Sancai nodded when he saw His Majesty, and quickly asked the palace people to light the candles in the hall.
"Prince can return to the palace?" Emperor Changlong rubbed his eyes.
"Your Majesty, there is no one to report from the East Palace." Zhao Sancai said very gently.
No one reported that he hadn’t returned yet, and the tired old father Changlong sighed:
When I was as big as him, how could he be so relaxed.

Zhao Sancai smiled and gave a health tea to Emperor Changlong.
Emperor Changlong took a sip and frowned, "This tea is really terrible."
"Your Majesty, this is the health tea your Royal Highness has specially arranged for you. You can see how many sips you have for your filial piety." Zhao Sancai whispered, "Otherwise, the old slave can't answer badly. "
"You're an old thing." Emperor Changlong smiled and scolded, and took a few sips of the tea. "As a prince, let him learn to govern politics, and always be lazy. When going out to play, he was very unwilling to be excited. Go home."
"Your Majesty, the old slave said something guilty, and also asked His Majesty to forgive the old slave first."
"Speak."
"Although the old slave has no children, the old slave feels that all the children who are close to his father in the world are like this. Your majesty, you are young and powerful, and the prince occasionally wants to go out to play. It takes three days to learn something, and the next two days can learn very well." Zhao Sancai laughed. "The old slave is stupid and doesn't know what to say."
Changlong laughed a few times: "You are an old thing, as you say, it seems that the prince is lazy but it is right, we should suffer and suffer."
"Your Majesty, the old slave doesn't mean that." Zhao Sancai laughed with him, "What kind of temperament is your Highness? Your Majesty, don't you know yet?"
Emperor Changlong said that he scorned the prince, but whoever really said that the prince was a bad sentence, he must be able to turn his face on the spot. Listening to Zhao Sancai's praise for his filial piety and ability, the smile on Emperor Changlong's face never spread.
"Speaking of the relationship between father and son, the old slave also heard an anecdote a few days ago." Zhao Sancai said, "A few days ago, Chun Hua, the three sons answered questions at the tribute courtyard. Two thieves lived."
"Poor parents in the world, Ying Ting has never been nervous and afraid of killing enemies on the battlefield in his life. His son went to participate in an imperial examination, but instead he stayed outside the door every day." Emperor Changlong thought about Hua Yingting as a person, pitifully At the gate of Gongyuan, he smiled and sighed: "It is not easy to be a man who is a father."
The son went out to play, when the father was exhausted in the palace.
The son took the exam at the tributary, and when he was a father, he squatted outside the tribute to accompany the exam.
At this moment, Emperor Changlong unilaterally expressed sympathy for Hua Yingting.
However, this sentiment became guilty after the prince returned to the palace and said that he spent a day with the little girl in the flower family.
After all, Hua Yingting returned to Beijing and talked with him on the night of Bingzhuye. He also told him that he did not intend to let his frail daughter marry, and only asked her to live a safe and simple life.
At the time, he patted his chest and said that he would definitely take care of other girls and prevent her from being wronged.
How long is it now, the most beloved son said happily to his tired old father that he had a good day playing with other girls.
Son, have you ever done such a thing, have you ever considered the feelings of your old father?
As an emperor with a lot of words, he is very serious, understand?
