Zhao Junbao was stunned when he heard this, grabbed Li Xiucai's wrist and asked, "Are you crazy?"

"I know that she will be married soon. What do you think? I don't plan to start a family, just live my life alone, so that your Li family will be cut off from now on? You can be sober!"

"I can't say what will happen in the future. It's just that now my mind is full of her, and I can't tolerate others anymore. What if you barely become a relative? It's just one more person who suffers. Li Xiucai looked down at Zhao Junbao's big hand holding his wrist and said softly.

"Wronged!" Zhao Junbao shook off Li Xiucai's wrist and strode forward.

Li Xiucai followed, didn't speak, and walked quietly aside.

Zhao Jun endured and endured, but he still couldn't hold back, turned his head and asked him: "Why do you say you are such a tendon? You are obviously the smartest person, but you are simply stupid and stubborn in this matter."

She's very nice. But no matter how good it is, it will eventually be someone else's daughter-in-law, how can you only lose your own lifelong happiness?"

"Brother Zhao, you don't understand. Li Xiucai still smiled faintly.

"I don't understand, and I don't want to. If you understand, you have to be like you, ignore the stupid and axial, I just don't want to understand it in this life!" Zhao Junbao was a little angry, "Obviously a promising young man, but he has to drill the horns of the bull, and he doesn't listen to any persuasion." I don't even care about filial piety, you tell me how I should understand?"

"Brother Zhao, what can I do?"

"I don't want to do that, but my heart just identifies with her. Do you want me to dig out my heart?"

"I don't really have any luxuries, I just want to see her once in a while, even if it's just from a distance, and hear from her from time to time, that's all. There's really no more to it. ”

"You don't know, just hearing about her makes my heart calm you, and I can be happy for days to see her. Getting along with her face to face like today, I was even more ecstatic than when I was a showman, and I couldn't wait to fly. ”

"That's all I ask for, and I won't disturb her, let alone affect her marriage. Brother Zhao, is it really not possible to even like her quietly like this way?"

Li Xiucai said very calmly, but Zhao Junbao felt sad and a little distressed when he heard it. Yes, what did he do wrong? He just liked a girl, and as a man, he would always meet the girl he loved.

It's just that Xiucai's luck is not good, the girl she likes is very unusual, she is too good, so good that the prince also loves her, and even the emperor praises her when he mentions her. This girl has already been married, and she is a sure future princess.

Xiucai's love for her was so humble from the beginning, he hid it carefully, and he couldn't let people know about it for the rest of his life, otherwise he might cause death!

Li Xiucai looked at Zhao Junbao's sad appearance, but smiled with relief: "Brother Zhao, don't mention this matter from now on." I will also bury this intention in my heart, and I will never let anyone know. From then on you will not know.

This is my lovesickness alone, no one can take it away, and no one can tell me to give up, I am very happy.

In a few years, I may also marry and have children, and I will have children and grandchildren in my old age. As far as she and I are concerned, it is not that she can't ask for it, but that even the idea of 'begging' is a blasphemy. All my life, I can only look up to her from afar. As long as this is the case, the remaining wishes are enough. ”

Many years later, when Li Zhao, who had been the first assistant of the cabinet, was seriously ill and dying, Zhao Junbao, who was a fellow villager and long-time friend of General Hu Ben, came to visit with Bai Sheng, who had already become the emperor.

Li Zhao sent his wife and his grandson and daughter-in-law out of the room, and struggled to get up and salute the emperor, but was stopped by Bai Sheng.

"Xiucai, hurry up and get better. I still have a lot of business for you to deal with. Bai Sheng, who still looked like he was in his thirties, sat on the edge of his bed and said softly.

He is already the head of the cabinet, and there are very few people who call him by name, and Bai Sheng and several people still call him "Xiucai" closely.

"Yes, Xiucai, don't be lazy. I'm a few years older than you, why are you embarrassed to lie in bed all day long, watching Your Majesty and I busy?" Zhao Junbao finished speaking, turned his head and quickly wiped the corners of his eyes.

"Your Majesty, Brother Zhao, you don't have to be relieved of my heart. My own body and bones are clear. This time, it really didn't work. Li Zhao's gray face was calm, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.

"What nonsense? I'm only in my fifties, why can't I be? I'm still alive and jumping, and I can eat three bowls of rice in one meal, where will it be your turn?" Zhao Junbao said with a tiger on his face.

"'There are no old and young people on Huangquan Road', what does it have to do with age? Brother Zhao is old and confused. Li Xiucai teased.

Zhao Junbao was so angry by his words that he jumped to his feet, blew his beard and glared at him. Li Zhao looked at him with an angry look, and laughed so hard that he was beaten again.

Bai Sheng patted Li Zhao's arm lightly, and sighed with self-reproach: "Xiucai, it's all me who tired you like this, it's not good for me." ”

"What did Your Majesty say?" Li Zhao was very indifferent, he had long been downset about life and death, "Eat the king's fortune, and be loyal to the king." If there was no His Majesty's kindness back then, I was afraid that Li Zhao would have long since lost his bones and turned into a piece of loess, where would there still be Li Ge Lao, who is a high-ranking and powerful person who is admired by everyone?

His Majesty gave Wechen the opportunity to show his ambitions. What His Majesty ordered Weichen to do is what Weichen wants to do from the bottom of his heart. It's Weichen's own body that doesn't fight for anger, and it has nothing to do with His Majesty. Don't take everything on yourself. ”

"Although I have given you a chance, I have also caused you to suffer a lot of hardships and many sins. It's your own ability to sit where you are today. I didn't help you with anything, but I always threw you a lot of mess and made you anxious. You have made great contributions to the court, but you have already burned down, I ...... I'm ashamed of you. ”

"Your Majesty is a rare ancient monarch, and you are the blessing of the people of Yueguo. Wechen once swore to be loyal to the country, but I didn't expect that this time it was really necessary to 'do my best and die'," Li Zhao joked. After laughing a few times, he coughed, and the more he coughed, the more urgent he became, and his originally pale complexion was dyed a little sickly ruddy because of this.

was so frightened that Zhao Junbao helped him up and smoothed his back, and even Bai Sheng hurriedly poured him a glass of water and fed him a little by little.

"I didn't expect that I, Li Zhao, would be able to be served by General Hu Ben, and I could also work Your Majesty to condescend to serve tea and pour water, this life is really worth it! Li Zhao said with some lack of strength, his face even more ugly than Fang Cai.
