Chapter 464: Looking Far Away

On the side of Bufu, the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve seemed a little deserted, but Li Yuan's heart was still happy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

A few days ago, I was busy investigating the case, and I even squeezed out the time to eat, but on this day, I can finally put down my work and spend the New Year with peace of mind.

In the evening, Shen Zhu came with a big bag of New Year's goods.

Because he wanted to step up the investigation of the remaining five major cases in the country, Shen Zhu did not go home for the New Year this year, and he didn't really want to go back, after all, there was no one at home.

"I wanted to come yesterday, but I'm too busy." Shen Zhu said after putting down the New Year's goods.

Although he and Li Yuan are both in Dali Temple, the two are not investigating the same case, and they are busy with their own work at the moment.

Shen Zhu took out two chicken legs from the bag and gave one to Li Yuan.

This is their brother's favorite food, so Shen Zhu brings it almost every time he comes to see Li Yuan.

Li Yuan put the chicken leg on the table, poured tea for Shen Zhu, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's good if you can come today." ”

Shen Zhu took out the contents of the bag while nibbling on the chicken legs.

There are pepper and cypress wine, osmanthus wine, rice wine, white wine, caramel sugar, spring cakes, mille-feuille cakes, sugar fire, pot stickers, hot noodles and fried cakes, hollow hemp balls, pumpkin cakes, purple potato cakes, red date rice cakes, sauce plate duck, roast chicken, spiced fish, Sichuan-style sausages, sour radish strips and lotus root slices, etc.

When Li Yuan saw it, he was both moved and angry, and said, "It's all so familiar, and it's so expensive." Actually, I've already prepared the New Year's goods. ”

And Wen Yingsu also prepared a lot for him.

Shen Zhu smiled and put a purple potato cake into his mouth, and said, "After a hard year, I have to eat better on the New Year's Day, even if I don't come to you, I still have to buy it." ”

Li Yuan asked his subordinates to take all the meat dishes to heat, held Shen Zhu's hand and said, "Tonight, we will have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner early, and after eating, we will go to the Great Wish Tower to watch others set off fireworks." ”

Shen Zhu sneered: "Didn't you go to the Baotang Poetry Club to make poems?" ”

Li Yuan shook his head and said, "I've read poetry books for more than ten years, let's put them down for the time being." ”

Shen Zhu suddenly smiled and did not speak again.

During the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Shen Zhucai said: "The East Palace must be very lively today. With that, he looked at Li Yuan.

"It should be." Li Yuan nodded. Thinking that my sister may have given birth in the past few days, but I can't go up close to see it, I feel a little guilty.

Shen Zhu comforted: "It's good that you are like this now, don't be sad." ”

Li Yuanqiang cheered himself up and said, "Hmm." ”

After dinner, Li Yuan and Shen Zhu went to the Great Wish Tower to watch others set off fireworks.

As they walked side by side along Chang'an Avenue, the sound of crackling firecrackers came and went, and happy faces could be seen everywhere.

Li Yuan only felt a chill in his body, and unconsciously wrapped his coat tightly.

Standing on the Great Pagoda, you can see fireworks set off by people from all directions of the capital.

The fireworks soared into the sky, transforming flowers, bunches, and clusters in the sky, so prosperous and so short-lived. Li Yuan suddenly thought of his own life.

He doesn't have many regrets, though.

He looked at the fireworks and smiled slowly.

"I want to go to the grave of my parents tomorrow morning, do you want to come with me?" Li Yuan asked Shen Zhu.

Shen Zhu smiled again, who went to the grave on the first day of the new year? But he readily agreed.

The next morning, Li Yuan and Shen Zhu went out with large bags and small bags.

When Li Yuan's injury was just right, he asked someone to find a piece of feng shui treasure land and moved his parents to the past. He also left his place on the left side of his parents' grave.

It was a mountain on the outskirts of the city, and the grave of Li Yuan's parents was halfway up the mountainside, and it took them more than half an hour to get there from the foot of the mountain due to the heavy snow, cold wind, and slippery ground.

The grave was already covered with a layer of snow. Li Yuanhan knelt down, carefully brushed the snow off the tombstone, and said, "Father, mother, the child sees that you are here." ”

This time, he didn't shed a tear.

He placed the prepared fruits, meats, and snacks on the stone steps in front of the tombstone, and bowed respectfully to them three times.

Shen Zhu also lit three sticks of incense to kowtow to them.

After the ceremony, the two stood on the side of the mountain and looked into the distance.

From where they were, they saw that the heavens and the earth were vast and boundless. They suddenly felt the urge to raise their arms and shout.

Such beautiful mountains and seas, who can not love and not be nostalgic?

Li Yuan said sincerely in his heart: "If one day, I can assist His Highness to become king together with Shen Zhu and achieve the hegemony of the ages, how good it would be!" ”

He has read history books since he was a child, looking at the emperors of the past dynasties, the most admired is Tang Taizong Li Shimin and Song Renzong Zhao Zhen, he feels that the crown prince Zhao Yuliang has both Tang Taizong's open-mindedness and hard work, and Song Renzong's generosity and benevolence, compassion and compassion, as long as the prince sits on the throne, it will be a great blessing for the country. Unfortunately, he was not blessed to wait for that day. Therefore, he hoped that Shen Zhu would work hard.

As for Shen Zhu, he also thought of the change of throne, and his mood was a little complicated.

Right now, anyone who uses a snack can see that the day of the change of thrones is getting closer. But no one dared to mention it openly, for fear that it would cause death.

As for the prince's reaction, it was unusually calm, as if he did not realize the urgency of the situation.

Is the crown prince so calm, is he confident or does he not regard the succession of thrones as important? Shen Zhu and Li Yuan are unknown.

However, the prince was a chessboard master, and they believed that he must know how to make the next move.

Moreover, they all knew that as long as the emperor's body did not allow him to continue to sit in that position, the crown prince would naturally get the right to inherit the throne.

It's just that whenever the throne changes, bloody things will happen, so many people are secretly paying attention to the movements of King Pei Zhao Yuxian.

Zhao Yuxian, the king of Pei, had long expected this, so he immediately sent a letter to the emperor after the new year, in which he implored the emperor to allow him to stay in Monan after the year on the grounds that the princess was unwell recently and needed to be taken care of and the child was still young.

The emperor wanted him to return to the capital to assist in political affairs after the New Year, but the mountains and rivers were far away, and he had no choice but to give up.

However, February 8 was the emperor's birthday, and Zhao Yuxian, the king of Pei, had to return to Beijing no matter what, so Zhao Yuxian, the king of Pei, couldn't help but secretly complain. That's an afterword.
