Liu Tong and Chang Runzhi stayed at Chang's house for a day, and when the two left, it was still early, Chang Runzhi smiled and said that he saw Rui Lei eating with relish at dinner, and he unconsciously followed the meal. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Liu Tong smiled dotingly at her and said, "Then let's walk slowly for a while and take a walk." ”

At dusk, the golden crow began to fall, and there were seemingly fiery clouds on the red horizon.

The couple is middle-aged, and although they are well-maintained, the faint gray hair on their heads and the slight wrinkles on their faces also indicate that they are no longer young.

The two of them walked down the street as if they had first known each other in the past, talking and laughing.

"I heard again yesterday that an official wanted to send his daughter to you as a concubine." Chang Runzhi blinked and looked sideways at Liu Tong: "Tell me honestly, aren't you excited?" ”

Liu Tong shook his head in distress, and said helplessly: "Don't be moved, my family is like a beautiful flower, and I have been with me like a little girl as big as my daughter, if I can really do it, will I not be a beast?" ”

Chang Runzhi sneered: "According to what you say, there are many beastly men in the world, that is, the one above, there is still a twenty-year-old concubine Wen Niangniang in the palace." ”

Liu Tong glared at her with implicit warning, Chang Runzhi stuck out his tongue a little, and surrendered: "Okay, okay, I won't say it." ”

The two talked and laughed, and unconsciously walked side by side, and Liu Tong naturally took her hand.

These hands, which were soft and smooth at first, gradually became rough and calloused in the past few years in Zhongguan Hutong, and even now, these hands have not been restored to their original state.

However, Liu Tong knew that when these hands were held, they were warm, and the warmth could almost go straight to the bottom of his heart.

"What do you think?" Chang Runzhi looked at him curiously.

Liu Tong sighed and said, "What else can you think about, think about Tao Tao's marriage...... She has a big idea, and she doesn't want to marry the famous sons, and the royal brothers and sisters-in-law are all up to her...... That's how it can be good. ”

"You want to sweep Tao Tao out of the house?"

"How so." Liu Tong shook his head: "Even if I raise her for the rest of my life, I have no complaints." But she is eighteen years old this year, and if she doesn't decide on her in-law's family, she can't say anything. ”

Chang Runzhi was interested: "You can't say that, it's not good for an eighteen-year-old girl to marry someone else?" Our daughter won't be worried about getting married, and besides, isn't there some foreign grand duke or something now? ”

Liu Tong looked at Chang Runzhi incredulously: "You let Tao Tao marry those foreign monkeys?" ”

"Look at your prejudice, isn't Isowa also a foreign girl? She and Rui Lei, who is the fourth child, are equally cute. If Tao Tao really marries a foreigner and gives birth to a mixed-race baby, how delicate and cute it is......"

"Half-breed ......"

Liu Tong couldn't help but hold his forehead: "Your acceptance is quite high......"

"Believe me, if Your Majesty carries out exchanges with foreign countries in the future, these will definitely be ordinary and ordinary things in the future." Chang Runzhi said optimistically: "Your Majesty's thoughts are a little conservative now, but Ah Long is a majestic person, and he will definitely be able to inherit His Majesty's ambition in the future and expand to the open sea." ”

Liu Tong said curiously: "You seem to want Great Wei to expand outward?" ”

"I'm afraid that closure will lead to backwardness, and backwardness is destined to be beaten." Chang Runzhi's words are somewhat meaningful: "Passive defense is never something that the strong should do. ”

What Chang Runzhi hopes for is only to hope that in another time and space, the black-haired and black-eyed Chinese people can be at the forefront of the generations from history to modern times, and will not be complacent in the dream of the heavenly kingdom because of conservative feudalism, and finally be shattered by the long guns and short cannons of foreign people, become the object of enslavement, become inferior people, and become a race that will be discriminated against in the future.

Emperor Taichang has taken this step, and hopes that his descendants can stick to this road, go on, see the gap between other nationalities and the Chinese nation, face up to themselves, and always be vigilant.

Liu Tong said thoughtfully: "You are right, passive defense and active attack are two completely different paths. I think the royal brother should also be inclined to take the initiative to attack this road. ”

"That's good." Chang Runzhi smiled, if this topic continues, it will be related to the court again. It's rare that they can stroll around the street after dinner and take a walk like ordinary couples, so don't waste their time on those official tasks.

Chang Runzhi grabbed Liu Tong's arm and complained to him: "And Ju is about to give birth in four months, and I want more grandchildren, and I will give one more red envelope for the New Year in the future." Ling'er said that he was going to travel through the mountains and rivers, and said that he was going to come back and didn't come back, I don't know if I can kidnap a girl back this time, you are not in a hurry to be a father, this is a major event in his marriage. And Tao Tao ......"

Chang Runzhi chattered endlessly, Liu Tong listened carefully, and from time to time a "hmm" was counted as a response.

He knew that his wife didn't want him to give any promises or answers, it was just a few small complaints in ordinary life.

But even if it was a complaint, he listened very seriously.

The growth of the children, the birth of grandchildren, the gray hair born between the sideburns, the wrinkles on the forehead, and the changes of the maids around them one after another...... Everything around them shows them that life is moving forward.

After one day, there is one less day in the future.

Liu Tong is sometimes as dazed as Chang Runzhi was when Mrs. Chang died.

The elders will gradually grow old and die, and who will be next?

Liu Tong took her hand and tightened it.

He cherishes every moment with her, knowing that one day is one less.

He had never been more afraid of death than he was now.

"What's wrong?" Chang Runzhi was thinking about it in pieces, and Leng Buding felt that Liu Tong was holding her hand and suddenly forced.

"Oh, nothing." Liu Tong smiled and looked down at her sideways: "I was just thinking, after a person dies, will there be a soul?" ”

Chang Runzhi was surprised for a moment, and replied to him: "Yes, maybe there is reincarnation, and you can be reborn in another time and space." ”

Although Liu Tong thought it was a joke, he couldn't help but take it seriously: "If there is really reincarnation, it would be great." ”

"Why?" Chang Runzhi smiled, with a slight wise light in his eyes: "Isn't it enough to live for one life?" Maybe the next life will be difficult and difficult? ”

Liu Tong stretched out his hand and patted her head, dotingly, and said softly: "It's not enough, although I think I have always been loyal to you in my life, but because of my identity, I have too little time to accompany you, even if I gradually withdraw the power in my hands in the future, but in the end I can't accompany you in the best time." If there is an afterlife, I want to meet you early and spend more time with you. ”

Chang Runzhi paused when he heard this, and his eyes flashed with a fine streamer, mixed with the colorful glow of dusk on the horizon, and he was invested in Liu Tong's pupils, which was so fascinating.

She suddenly laughed, as pure joy as a girl: "Well, in that case, then Mrs. Ben will first promise you the next life." ”

Liu Tong burst out laughing.

In this way, death is not a fear for him.

Liu Tong let go of his hand, took a step back, and bowed elegantly to Chang Runzhi, who pretended to be reserved and arrogant.

His lilting voice was like that of a teenager.

"In the next life, I will ask my wife for more advice."
