Li Huai didn't go to the Empress Dowager alone on the day he left Beijing, he knew that she didn't care and didn't need him to do this, and he didn't dare to see her alone after experiencing the intimidation of her cold and shining sharp knife.

It turned out that his love for her for more than ten years could be broken so neatly, so clever that he wondered if it was love or a desire/desire. It's obviously hard to tell the difference, but he doesn't want to tell it either, anyway, they're really cut in two now.

In the car back to the Southern Regions, Li Huai looked at the scenery passing by the window, and his mood was unprecedentedly happy. He actually left a bunch of words that he didn't say to her, but he didn't feel sorry, those things that were not said, let it stay in his heart with the memory, maybe one day he will remember, maybe one day he will never remember it again, but what does it matter?

Li Ling obviously saw the psychological changes after Li Huai's trip, and while he was relieved, he was also secretly curious, I don't know what the queen mother used to pull Li Huai back on the right track. No matter what she did, he was grateful to her. Of course, it is Li Huai who should be thanked to her the most.

"After I go back, let's live a good life with Shu Bei (Li Huai's wife). Li Ling said to Li Huai.

Li Huai withdrew his gaze from the window and nodded.

"From now on, live a down-to-earth life, cherish what you should cherish, don't envy others, you can live as the object of envy of others. Li Ling said earnestly.

Li Huai's eyes suddenly became hot, and he said, "Daddy, these years have been a child, so you have to worry about it." ”

Li Ling smiled and said: "Who hasn't been crazy in their youth? It's good to pass it, it's mature, and when it's mature, don't fall down on the old road again." ”

In Li Ling's view, in the vast world, that bit of sadness is nothing, that bit of loss is nothing, people always have to return to the focus of their lives, and then start again and live their own lives.

Li Huai understood what his father meant, and said to himself in his heart - there will definitely be regrets in the days to come, but you can't expect all the good to be in your hands, you can't be so greedy, otherwise you will easily have nothing, all you can do is to try to reduce your regrets, think more about the beauty you once had, and then live every moment with gratitude.

Perhaps this is the reconciliation between man and fate, accept the imperfections of life and oneself, remove greed, and live oneself in a down-to-earth manner.

Li Huai suddenly figured it out, looked at the scenery whistling by outside the window, and cried for himself who had figured it out.

Looking at Li Huai like this, Li Ling was very relieved, and couldn't help but redden.

As long as the son comes out, everyone will work together in the future, and nothing will be unpassable.

The carriage drove along the endless plains, and inside the carriage, the hands of father and son were tightly clasped together.

..................

It's June in the blink of an eye, and the weather is so hot that people are sweating even when they sit quietly. In the afternoon, Jiang Yuetang sat and read in front of the desk by the window in the study, Mei Xiang stood aside to help her fan the fan, although there was a large bucket of ice in the room, but it still couldn't resist the rolling heat surging from all directions, and the squeaky of the trees outside the window added a bit of heat to the room in this hot summer afternoon.

Looking at the sweat on Jiang Yuetang's back, Mei Xiang sighed while wiping her with a towel: "The young master's back is too sweaty, and his clothes haven't dried all day." ”

She didn't say this dissatisfied, but sighed.

Yes, because of his love of sweating, the clothes on Jiang Yuetang's back are always wet, you can imagine how uncomfortable Jiang Yuetang is.

"Just wait for the sun to go down. Jiang Yuetang replied, she is now focused on books, so she doesn't feel so uncomfortable.

"This summer's weather is hotter than usual, and if it continues to be so hot, it will really heat a lot of people. Mei Xiang said while wiping her sweat, her face depressed and helpless.

Jiang Yuetang suggested that she drink a glass of iced lemonade.

Mei Xiang did so, and after drinking it, she felt a little more comfortable.

Then Mei Xiang also made Jiang Yuetang a glass of frozen lemonade.

Just when Jiang Yuetang was drinking lemonade, a maid reported that Shangguan Che was coming, and Jiang Yuetang immediately put down the cup and went out to greet him.

Shangguan Che hurried over after finishing the affairs of the yamen, and at this time he was also so hot that he was sweating.

Jiang Yuetang immediately asked someone to serve frozen watermelon and frozen lemonade, and personally fanned him.

After a piece of frozen watermelon and a glass of lemonade were in his stomach, Shangguan Che suddenly felt refreshed and immediately began to lecture.

Jiang Yuetang also stopped fanning and sat in her seat to listen to the lecture quietly.

Shangguan Che said: "We have learned a lot of examples of ancient emperors using means and resourcefulness to seek a country, but seeking a country is not only to seek a country, but also to find a way to govern it well after it is planned, so that it can exist for a longer time in history, so I will tell you how to govern a country in the next five months." ”

Jiang Yuetang nodded.

Shangguan Che took another big sip of frozen lemonade, and then said: "Yuwentai, the founder of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, was eager to seek talents during his reign, and he went everywhere to find talented people. One day, he invited Su Sui, a famous minister of the Western Wei Dynasty, to ask him for advice on how to govern the country.

Su Sui summed up the ruling experience of the Han ruling class in six articles and played them to Yuwentai. His six lessons are:

1. Treat the heart first. He believes that the foundation of governing the people lies in governing the heart, the heart is the master of the body, the foundation of a hundred lines, the heart is pure, the spirit is harmonious, and the spirit is harmonious, and sinister thoughts will not sprout. Corresponding to the treatment of the heart is to govern the body, if the body is not right, the shadow is not straight, so the monarch should 'the heart is like clear water, the shape is like white jade', respect the way of heaven, imitate the ancestors, set an example, and rule the world with virtue.

2. Educate. It refers to actively promoting moral and cultural education, and cultivating the people's qualities such as simplicity, love, harmony, and respect.

3. Make the best use of the location. He believes that life is in the world and food and clothing, so we should 'plant mulberry fruits, art vegetables, repair gardens, and raise chickens and dolphins, so as to prepare for life and provide tools for the elderly. ’

4. Promote virtuous and virtuous. "If you are virtuous, you will be safe, and if you are not virtuous, you will be chaotic", and we should appoint more capable people, regardless of family rank and qualifications. and the personnel of each office shall be made competent for their duties, and those who are indiscriminate or redundant shall be immediately dismissed.

5. Prison lawsuits. When dealing with prison cases, reasonable handling should be made according to the severity of the matter, and punishment should not be inflicted indiscriminately.

6. All are enlisted. If the king's disposition is reasonable and appropriate, it is impossible for the people not to be convinced.

This is the six suggestions for governing the country submitted by Su Xuan to Yuwentai, known as the 'Six Edicts' in history, and you need to write down these six methods so that you can use them later when you become a strategist. ”

Shangguan Che said as he wrote down the contents of the 'Six Edicts' and handed it to her.
