The majestic Chang'an City Gate stands in the south of Chang'an City, guarding the monarchs of Chang'an City rain or shine. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It witnessed the Emperor of Daye set off for the northern tour in a glorious manner, and witnessed him come back elated and proud.
This time the northern tour was very smooth, and the southern tour was staged again.
The reverence of the nomadic tribes in the north for the Great Sui is like a surging river. They all bowed down at the feet of the Emperor of Daye, and rushed to sacrifice cattle, sheep, camels and horses.
Among them, the most outstanding performance is the Qimin Khan, who once received the favor of the first emperor. He once married Princess Anyi and Princess Yicheng, two daughters of the Sui family, and was rewarded by the first emperor. This time, he showed full submission and deference to the Emperor of Daye.
As a result, the northern nomads were stabilized, and there were much fewer wars on the frontier.
Emperor Daye happily returned to Chang'an City, and the people on both sides of the street stood on both sides of the street cheering and greeting the hero as if they had greeted him when he was 14 years old when he fought against the Turks.
"Welcome Your Majesty back to the palace." The queen waited at the gate of the palace with a smile.
"The queen has worked hard." The emperor said and took the emperor's hand and walked towards the palace.
"I won't sit in a sedan chair today, let's go in!"
In the past few months of the northern tour, how much he missed the grass and trees in the Luoyang East Palace. How I want to take the queen's hand again and walk through the paths here together.
At this moment, he finally got his wish, leading his beloved queen through the long corridors and across the suspension bridges. Bypass rockeries. Finally returned to the dormitory he had been dreaming about.
"I haven't looked at the flowers and plants in this palace for many years, and I miss it very much after leaving this period of time. On the way back, I always thought that if I arrived, I must take the queen through the corners of the palace and see all these flowers and plants. The emperor said, his eyes were full of happiness.
The queen looked at the emperor's handsome face that had not declined over the years, and could get such a husband who could not only fight well, but also know how to spend the moon before and after. It is a blessing that she has cultivated for several lifetimes.
"Why is the queen crying? Is it touching the scene? The emperor looked at the queen's melon seed face, and his face was full of tears and pear blossoms brought rain.
After listening to the emperor's words, the queen found that her tears flowed out. Quickly bowed his head and wiped away his tears, "No, I feel too happy." Before I knew it, tears flowed. ”
The gentleness of bowing his head, and the happiness in his smile when he raised his head, all reminded the emperor of when he first got married.
"I am fortunate to be able to spend this life with the queen."
The queen raised her head in surprise and looked at the feelings in the emperor's eyes, "What's wrong with Your Majesty today?" How can you say something like this that you don't usually say? ”
The emperor hugged the queen, "It's okay, I just ran into something on the road, thinking about what would happen if I died at this moment." The most regrettable thing at that time was that I never seriously told the queen how important you were to me. ”
The queen instantly burst into tears, "Your Majesty ......"
At this moment, the two souls are united into one.
It was a long, long time before the queen knew what the emperor's understatement of 'something happened on the way'.
It turned out that when the Turks were worshipping all the peoples, the emperor sat on the first seat.
The nomadic people who were intimidated by the majesty of the Great Sui all came to worship this heavenly and human-like supreme.
"See the Supreme, please allow us to change our clothes and wear gorgeous clothes to be the sons and daughters of China.!" The cries of the homeless were louder and louder.
Originally, the emperor just wanted them to be intimidated by his prestige, and to live and work in peace and contentment without looking for trouble. Now they are shouting that they want to change into Hanfu and be a son and daughter of China, and he is really a little overwhelmed.
"Since Mobei is still unstable, there will still be battles, as long as you have a respectful heart, why do you have to change your clothes!"
As soon as the emperor's words came out, those wanderers saw that their request for submission was refused. They were all lost and cried.
The most extreme was the little boy who knelt near the emperor, and the child was about fourteen or fifteen years old. Among the nomads, he is considered a man who can stand up to the sky.
He looked at the emperor's majestic appearance, and the brocade clothes on his body. admires him very much, and wants to wear the same clothes as the emperor and be the emperor's people.
Unexpectedly, the emperor rejected them with such a simple sentence.
His little heart was hurt, his head was congested for a while, his muscles were bruised, and he flew over to the emperor. Raising his hand, he took out the dagger he was carrying and put it on the emperor's throat, "Supreme, if you don't promise me to join the Chinese nation, I will stain this dagger with your blood and commit suicide." ”
The child's eyes were full of eagerness, and the impulsive blood flowed through his body. It seems that the slightest mistake will make the emperor die with himself.
The emperor was shocked at first, but he didn't expect that the most pious and well-behaved child just now became the most dangerous person.
The emperor, who had experienced a hundred battles, instantly calmed down, and said in a steady tone, "Child, you calm down first." If you hurt me at this moment, you will definitely be in a different place at that time, and if so, what will happen to the girl who loves you, and your parents and family? ”
The emperor looked at the child's innocent eyes and knew that he did not hate himself or was driven by others. When he heard about his parents and lover, his eyes clearly flashed with reluctance and hesitation.
At this moment, the emperor decisively raised his hand and grabbed the hand that was only holding a dagger. I used to press down, although the child is not old, but the arm strength is not ordinary. Their hands froze in the air for a moment.
Fortunately, even if the emperor is busy with government affairs, he will take time to exercise in the morning. So in terms of strength, he was slightly better than the child.
The child's arm was pressed to the ground, and his body fell to the ground with his arm. Because his arm was twisted and painful, the muscles of his face were twisted. But he didn't make the slightest sound of begging for mercy, his eyes looked at the emperor like a sharp sword, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he actually smiled.
"What a good man!" The emperor was amazed.
The guards quickly came over and twisted the child's arms and pulled him away from the emperor. Waiting for the emperor to fall.
Everyone was speculating at this time whether the emperor wanted to execute the child Ling Chi or divide the body of the five horses. As a result, the emperor waved his hand, "Let him go back!" ”
For the first time, a shocked expression appeared on the child's calm and fierce face. The guards were also shocked.
"He's just a child, and I don't care about a child's faults."
Everyone was amazed by the emperor's calmness, wit and tolerance. Only that child, the moment he bowed his head, the unwillingness in his eyes turned into hatred.
At this time, the emperor, who was smiling, soaked his back with cold sweat. Fortunately, wearing many layers of clothing, others will not find out.
At that moment when he was holding a knife to his neck, the emperor suddenly thought of the queen. Think of his palace. If you want to walk with the queen, in the palace, see all the flowers and plants, and see the full moon and the lack of the moon.
It's just that he never told the queen about it. I'm afraid that she is afraid of being afraid. didn't know that she finally knew.
