Every night in the dead of night, he could often hear the emperor's sigh, helpless and sad.
Gritting his teeth, the old eunuch said, "The imperial doctor said that the emperor's body has been riddled with holes, and it is as tattered as a sieve. The holes are basically difficult to mend. If this situation continues, I'm afraid... I'm afraid there will be no time. many!"
After saying this, he secretly observed the boy's face, but the boy's face was always light and calm, so that he couldn't see what he was thinking.
"My lord..." The old eunuch wanted to say something else, but saw that the young man had already taken a step forward, leaving only a faint word, "Life and death are fate."
His indifference is chilling.
All the way out of the palace, the boy did not get on the carriage, and walked along the broad avenue until he walked to Jingcheng Street. Orange-yellow lanterns hang everywhere along the road.
The whole capital is bright as day.
The streets are bustling with traffic and people coming and going, bustling and bustling everywhere.
Opera, juggling, guessing lantern riddles, crowds crowded in front of each booth, cheering bursts.
The young man was alone, traveling through it. He was clearly in the lively street scene, but he was cold and out of tune with the surroundings.
Against the background of the hustle and bustle, it seems even more lonely.
In front of a booth, I bought a simple lantern.
Walking to the moat of the capital, putting the lantern in it, watching it flow into the distance, the young man looked up at the cold moon in the sky.
The moonlight was soft and hazy, covering the entire capital.
Such a beautiful moonlight is also shrouded in the sky over Xinghua Village and the Liu family courtyard.
That small courtyard must be very lively at this time.
The small courtyard that the teenager remembered was bursting with laughter at this time.
There is a rest in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the brothers Liu Zhixia and Liu Zhiqiu also went home for the festival. The brothers were very excited after not returning home for a long time.
Since entering the door, his mouth has not stopped, twittering about interesting things about the college, saying that he has been praised by his husband, saying that his classwork has improved significantly, saying that he is going to let them test the waters next spring, and the next test will be the Tongsheng test.
Even at dinner, the whole table was filled with the two of them playing tricks. It made the whole family burst into laughter.
"Since Mr. let you take the test, it means that you have recognized your current ability. Take the test well at that time, and don't lose the face of our Xinghua Village." Satisfied, the old man drank the Xiaoshi tea brought by his precious granddaughter. Admonished, with a satisfied look on his face.
Hearing this, Liu Zhixia nodded vigorously, but looking at Liu Zhiqiu, she grimaced and looked at her father with a shrinking head.
"What if I fail the exam? Dad, don't hit me at that time. I'm almost thirteen years old, and I want to be embarrassed."
Liu Er was very happy, and slapped his own boy's head with a slap, "I don't know what kind of virtue you have! I sent you to study, but I didn't ask you to be a high-ranking official in the future. You studied hard and tried your best to test. , just have a clear conscience. If you can't get a champion, I can still deny you, stinky boy!"
After getting the reassurance needle, Liu Zhiqiu grinned and didn't feel the pain in the back of his head, "That's why I said that you are sensible. Listening to you, I don't feel any pressure now. With God's help, there is no stage fright at all."
"I see that you went to the academy for all these years, and you didn't learn anything else, so you just kept your mouth shut." Liu Er scolded with a smile.
Mrs. Liu and her two daughters-in-law listened cheerfully, sorting out the gifts piled up in the main room.
There are valuable gifts sent by people who have money and money, as well as some household items and local specialties sent by the villagers.
If it is not sorted out, there will be no place to move in the main room.
"There are so many of these things. Just for our family's food, we can't use them up for a month or two." Mrs. Liu looked at the dazzling array of gifts and thought about it, "Xiulan, Du Juan, divide these things into two parts. Come, rush tomorrow and bring you back to your mother's house. The things are not that good, but it's just a meaning. When you go back, stay for a few more days, accompany your parents, and come back before the busy farming season. "
Chen Xiulan looked at Du Juan and smiled, "Hey, let's listen to my mother."
There are no daughters who don't want to be home, but they are already married, and it is impossible to run home all day like when they were young girls. Fortunately, the mother-in-law is open-minded and often tells them to go home and take a look. For this alone, they are very grateful to her mother-in-law.
The two small circles of the family are busy and chat with each other, but they are closely connected, happy and warm.
Liu Yusheng sat next to the old man, quietly listening to the family chatting and teasing, laughing and laughing, enjoying the atmosphere at the moment.
Mrs. Li and her eldest son, Li Ping, walked into the Liu family courtyard with laughter.
"Brother Liu, old sister-in-law, I'm here to deliver the wedding candy." The person who arrived before entering the room spoke with a hearty spirit, and changed his sorrow from the past.
"Old girl, Ping, come in and sit down. What's the joy of giving wedding candy at this time?"
"Our family's A Pingxiang saw a girl, and the matter has been settled. We are going to set up a wine in June next year. As soon as this matter is settled, I will rush over to send you wedding candy."
"Yo, Ping is about to marry a wife." Mrs. Liu was surprised, "Which girl is that? How is she?"
"There is a girl surnamed He in the village next door. This time I made a special inquiries. Although the family is poor, they are honest people. The girl is also diligent and filial, with a decent appearance and a good character. It's given to people."
Hearing the word "specially", Li Ping's face was a little red.
The family was frightened by his previous marriage.
At the beginning, he saw the girl right and asked the family to come to propose marriage, but who would have thought that when his family's situation was not good, the other party began to dislike his family's poverty, and finally regretted the marriage. Because of this, his parents were also angry, and he still feels guilty in his heart.
"It's good to have a clear understanding of it." Mrs. Liu nodded and asked again, "What do you mean by A Ping? Do you also like other girls? The young couple's marriage mainly depends on the meaning of young people. They like each other, that's the first premise."
Mrs. Li smiled and ridiculed, "He, he fell in love with the girl at first sight. When we first met, I forgot to blink when I saw the girl."
"Mother!" Li Ping coughed in embarrassment, his face swelled even more when he heard the snickering of the two and a half teenagers next to him, "Laugh at me now, it will be your turn in the future, you will suffer."
"Oh, we're only thirteen years old, we're going to marry a daughter-in-law early. I want to see our jokes. Brother Ping, you will have to wait for several years. By then, your children will be able to play soy sauce." Speaking of marrying a daughter-in-law In the matter, Liu Zhiqiu was not ashamed at all, but scolded him.
There was laughter in the house again.
