The emperor rode his horse himself.

The carriage broke free. I couldn't catch up with him. The convoy was scattered, and several pro-army leaders also rode horses to protect the emperor.

On the dirt road, dust and smoke billowed up.

The emperor almost fell off the carriage, and he couldn't stand steadily, and the people who ushered in him were all wearing white flags and plain clothes, and the emperor knew what was going on at a glance.

The leader of the team was the auxiliary minister stationed in Chang'an, one of the emperor's cronies, who saw the emperor at this time, and the people who were over half a hundred years old immediately cried like a child: "Your Majesty, the old minister...... The old minister can't help but be immaculate! The old minister has a heavy trust! ”

The emperor was obviously very sad, but his face was strong and calm, he held back his tears, and suddenly said: "Is the border defense a mistake?" ”

The old minister didn't understand what the emperor meant, but he still replied: "That's not true, the old minister is difficult to defend himself, and the border is very stable." ”

"Where is the great flood and the famine?"

"Your Majesty, the wind and rain are smooth,...... There was no such thing. ”

"Why, then, do you condemn yourself?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and raised his voice: "Since the world is peaceful and the wind and rain are smooth, why do you say that you are in a bad position?" The emperor turned sideways, tears flowing out of sight of his courtiers.

He knew what was going on.

He knows it all.

The courtiers walked around and knelt in front of the emperor, and the old tears were rampant: "Your Majesty is mourning." ”

A group of people looked like fallen white flags, and the snow was boundless, and they all bowed to the ground:

"Majesty Xià Festival Mourning ......"

The emperor spit out four words: "Swing the long door." Leaning sideways, tears flashed.

Xu Pingjun hung up the curtain and collected all the qiē in front of him. She shifted her body and asked the envoy, "What's going on?" ”

"I heard that His Majesty is going to take the long door."

"Nagato Palace?" Xu Pingjun had a trace of suspicion in his heart, and then, his eyes stared anxiously at the vast team of people in front of him, she was so smart, what His Majesty could predict, she must have a number in her heart.

Nagato Palace, from now on, I'm afraid it will really become a ruin.

"Alas......"

Xu Pingjun sighed.

I don't know how many times Emperor Liu Xun has stood here. The ruins of Nagato Palace, the ruins and rubble, were at his feet. They're going to be there all the time. Accompany the Han family to quietly grow old and barren......

He remembered that the first time he came here with the Ah Chi Granny he met in the market, at the gate of the almost deserted palace in Changmen, he not only saw the mysterious Ah Chi Granny, but also met the young emperor at that time. At that time, Emperor Xiaozhao was a pale young man with a very weak body, but the mother-in-law Ah Chi, whom he respected, was a very good and competent eldest sister, and she loved the young emperor very much.

Liu Xun was a little envious of the pale young man at that time. But he didn't know that it was the Young Emperor, his grandfather's own brother.

Later, the young emperor became the filial piety emperor in the temple, Liu He became the emperor, and Liu Yi became Liu Xun and became the emperor......

The vicissitudes of the world are like this, and it is easy to teach people to cry.

The emperor gently lifted the foot of his robe that was mopping the floor, slowly bent one leg, knelt on the ground, and bowed down......

He almost buried his head in the earth, and at this time, no one could see the emperor's sorrow and sorrow, and he was able to cry freely.

The emperor paused and sobbed: "Granny Ah Chi, I'm too late." ”

When everyone saw the emperor like this, they gave such a big salute, and they were all frightened, and they all fell down, and they all bowed behind the emperor and knelt with him:

"陛xià节mourning - 陛xià...... Mourning! ”

Ah Chi lay there.

But she is no longer a young Ah Chi.

No one in the world remembers what happened in the small bamboo house in Bolangsha. Why did the "foot merchant" from Chang'an disturb the tranquility that Xiao Achi should have?

However, she didn't blame anyone, but felt a little happy. She will think of the wind chimes under the bamboo eaves of Bolangsha, the father who carries the medicine and the loving mother......

I also think of the "foot merchant".

Few people in the world know that she moved to Chang'an very early, because her mother said that Ah Chi's home should be in Chang'an.

Ah Chi's father is also in Chang'an.

No, Ah Chi retorted, Chi'er's father, in our Bolangsha, our home!

Tears flashed in my mother's eyes.

Ah Chi has been accompanying the "foot merchant" who came from Chang'an back then, he is also old, but his spirit is very good, Ah Chi has never seen him depressed.

He loves Ah Chi very much. I like to call her Chi'er. It's like when my mother called her.

Everyone in the world says that Emperor Xiaowu is an emperor through the ages, and his merits and Yao Shun are majestic and difficult to touch. Chi Er also met Emperor Xiaowu. He's not like that. He would laugh and smile at Ah Chi. He loves Ah Chi very much.

Spring is delayed......

Emperor Xiaowu sometimes looked at her with sad eyes, and he would take Ah Chi's hand and say to her: "Chi'er, my Chi'er, you can come...... Too late. ”

He said, Chi'er, do you still refuse to call me father?

But he would never know that Hao Ah Chi once stood behind the retreat of Dan Majesty, silently muttering to the dragon chair where no one was sitting......

Father.

Quietly, my lord.

The Emperor will never hear it.

On that trip, Ah Chi accompanied him and traveled the world together. The emperor is always full of energy, and no matter how many difficulties he has on the road, he can't exhaust his energy.

His subordinates and courtiers were afraid of him, but he would always look at Ah Chi with the most loving eyes.

Sometimes Ah Chi thinks of his mother because of him.

Unfortunately, there was enough headache to haunt this ancient emperor who was no longer young. Ah Chi was captured by Rong Di during that trip, and there was no way to survive...... It was the emperor who led the army to visit Rong Di's camp at night, and finally rescued Ah Chi.

Ah Chi once asked him what would happen to the emperor if the princess of the Han Dynasty was taken captive?

The emperor looked at her, his eyes didn't blink, I would like her to die, and the Rong thief Kou Yuan is far from qualified to negotiate with me!

She was not afraid, and was very satisfied with the answer. Standing in front of her is the Emperor of the Ages! This is what he should say, and what he should have. At that moment, Ah Chi was even a little proud of her mother......

After all, my mother once fell in love with such a majestic and broad man. The Han family's Longxing is in his hands.

But, Chi'er, he looked at Ah Chi, couldn't help but stretch out a hand, gently straightened out his forehead for his daughter, he said, Chi'er, if it's you, I hope you will endure the humiliation, you are not the daughter of the Han family, you are just my daughter.

She was stunned.

The emperor held her tightly in his arms, and she could feel that the old emperor, the fearless emperor all his life, was trembling slightly.

I'm afraid of losing you, Chi'er.

What if she couldn't go back this time, she asked?

No, he is very calm and confident, and he will not be able to come back later.

What if so? She doesn't give up.

Straight to the Yellow Dragon,...... This is very good, my Han will open up the territory again, and the land of Rongdi is a county again.

Ah Chi was a little shocked by the emperor's self-confidence, and her entire mind was scattered, and she was completely shocked - it turned out that this was the first emperor of the ages.

The power of the emperor is like this.

But I won't let that happen. The old emperor was a little sad...... I, I can't bear it.

So what to do? Ah Chi was also a little worried, as if such a thing had really happened.

Cut the land and pay compensation, the emperor sighed, I can afford to pay it.

That's not good, my mother said, Jiangshan Sheji is more important than anything else. Ah Chi raised his head, looking innocent.

The emperor was stunned and said with a smile, she actually said that?

Ah Chi nodded, and His Majesty was confused.

I'm old, but I'm not confused. The emperor said. After cutting the ground, I can still fight back, and the army of the big Han tiger and wolf will raze Rong Di to the ground, but if I lose Chi'er, I will die. I only have one Chi'er.

There is only such a delay.

She still asked. Why did you come in person? If you fall here, won't you let the army of the big Han tiger and wolf also tie your hands and feet?

No, I'm careful. He touched Ah Chi's head like a child.

What if.

In case of...... I have thought about it, in case I can't go back, I have so many sons, don't worry about the Han Dynasty having no successor, your younger brothers, no matter who succeeds to the throne, will avenge you and me. Silly Chi'er, I'm not sorry for the Han family, after all, I'm also old, and I will always go one day. But Chi'er......

But Chi'er, if you stay here alone, how lonely it is, it's good for me to accompany you.

Why...... Chi'er's nose is sour.

I don't accompany your mother, I want to accompany you more. Give you back.

Ah Chi began to dream again. The monarch said, Chi'er, go home, I and your mother are waiting for you, Chi'er, don't be afraid, I will take you home.

Monarch ...... She finally called out to her father. I want to go to Bolangsha to see that Chi'er's wind chimes are still hanging under the eaves.

Chi'er is also old, and the monarch ......

An old tear finally slipped down.

In the eyes of the monarch's father, no matter how old Chi'er is, he is the child of the monarch's father.

It's too late, you can rest, for so many years, how much have you paid for the big man, it's too tired......

Hey, take a break.

Emperor Liu Xun pinched the fire blower, lit a white candle, and when the wax oil dripped off, he reached out and tried it, it was hot and burning.

"What did Granny Chi say before she died?"

There are a few last words...... "The little palace maid has grown into an old palace maid in the Changmen Palace, and she has served Princess Ah Chi for so many years."

"Say." The Emperor put the candle back in the candlestick.

The eldest princess said, "Hope...... Returning her remains to Bolangsa, she ...... She misses Bolangsa so much. ”

The emperor was in a trance.

"Bolangsha?"

"Yes, that's where the eldest princess grew up...... Bolangsha is so beautiful, the forest is bamboo, quiet and peaceful, under the bamboo eaves, there are wind chimes that can only sing. Jingle bells, jingle bells......"

That year, Ah Chi was only fifteen years old.

"Hmm...... It's quite beautiful, more beautiful than my Chang'an. The Emperor muttered.
