Doctor Hua's heart softened, he felt that he was too strict with this apprentice, and he didn't have a good word when they met, so he didn't feel like he slowed down, "Apprentice, what's wrong with you?" Is there something on your mind? ”

"Nope. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Liu Rui replied sullenly, lifted the wine jug and poured a glass of wine, and drank it silently.

As soon as Doctor Hua raised his eyebrows and stared at his eyes, he couldn't see the young man's appearance of dying, and couldn't help but slap his chopsticks on the table and scolded: "You stinky boy, when you see the master, you look like this ghost, don't you dislike the master and want to curse the master to die early?" ”

"Master." Liu Rui is really wronged, why did he have such an unreliable master.

"If you have something to say, if you have a fart, let it go, and show it to whoever you want to die."

Liu Rui opened his mouth, he didn't know where to start, and how to tell the master, only his hands subconsciously touched the jade pendant on his waist.

Although Doctor Hua didn't have a good face for him, but the two have lived together for many years, like father and son, and naturally know his habits very well, at this time, when he saw his appearance, he couldn't help pouting, "Look at you, just that little bit of interest, it's really embarrassing for the master, did you find your little daughter-in-law?" ”

Liu Rui nodded.

"Is it that your little daughter-in-law has made another promise?"

Liu Rui looked at Doctor Hua in surprise, how could the master know everything? Nodding again.

"Well, I said you stinky boy, you should die now." Doctor Hua didn't care about it, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the dish, and only after eating did he continue to teach: "Why does the big husband have no wife, since you have no fate with her, it is better to let it go, by the way, I don't know if the little doll is not allowed to be a person, if not, the master will give you a matchmaker, how about simply marrying the little baby?" ”

Unexpectedly, after so many years, the master still wanted to turn the girl of the Liu family into his apprentice and daughter-in-law, but in this way, Liu Rui felt even more depressed, and the depression in his heart that had been erased with great difficulty instantly surged up again.

"Why don't you speak, don't you look down on it?" Doctor Huashen rolled his eyes and scolded again.

Liu Rui hurriedly interrupted him, and said with some frustration: "She has promised someone." ”

"Promised? Alas, forget it, go back and ask your father to find another good way for you. By the way, where is your little daughter-in-law? ”

Liu Rui knew that the master was curious, and he didn't want to hide it from the master, to be honest, he could only tell the master and the imperial brother these words, so he bowed his head and replied honestly: "It's the girl of the Liu family." ”

"What? Is it a little baby? ”

Seeing Liu Rui nodded, the expression on Doctor Hua's face changed, and it took a while to slap his palm on his apprentice's head, "You stinky boy, I said at the beginning that you would marry the little baby, but you didn't listen, now it's okay, the daughter-in-law also ran away with someone, and you are embarrassed to drink here." ”

Master, what else can I do if I don't drink, Liu Rui didn't dare to resist, so he could only look at the master with a pair of aggrieved eyes.

"Look at what I'm doing, see if I can snatch your daughter-in-law back? No, I'm going to find the one surnamed Liu and said, since ancient times, a daughter doesn't marry a second husband, how can he accept your mother's dowry and give his daughter to others, there is no such reason in the world, and when the imperial capital is over, I will go to Wucheng to make trouble with him, and I will definitely snatch your daughter-in-law back. ”

What's wrong with the imperial capital? The emperor's body can't last long, and I don't know how much more things will happen, Hua Shenyi thought of this, his mood suddenly turned bad, he has been friends with the emperor for many years, needless to say, when he thought that he would soon die in the world, he didn't feel sad, and he was not in the mood to teach his apprentice, so he drank silently.

Liu Rui didn't know why the master was suddenly depressed, and remembered that the master must have come out of the palace, perhaps related to his father's body, and couldn't help but ask with concern: "Master, ...... his father Is he well? ”

"Is your father sick again?"

"Well, my father was sick in April, and it was better in mid-May, and I looked still in good spirits when I looked at it, and the master could diagnose my father's pulse when he returned?"

"Alas, your father is ...... He's fine. Doctor Hua hesitated for a moment, decided to hide the truth for the time being, and told Liu Rui that it didn't work, but made him worry and sad, thought about it, patted Liu Rui's shoulder again, and said earnestly: "Your father still cares about you very much, so let's go into the palace to accompany him more often." ”

"Well, I know."

"Okay, I've eaten the food and drunk the wine, and I'll go to sleep first, old man. Alas, old man, it's been bumpy these days, and the bones all over my body are going to fall apart, but it's still comfortable in bed, old man, I want to sleep well, don't come to disturb me if it's okay......"

Doctor Hua Shen drank the remaining half of the jar of wine, muttering all the way to the front yard, where there was a courtyard specially arranged for him.

Liu Rui looked at the back of the master in the distance, and always felt that the master was different from the past, and the back looked a little sad and lonely.

Although the master didn't say it explicitly, Liu Rui could hear the voice of the master's words, and his father's health was getting worse and worse.

Liu Rui stared at the distant night for a while, he couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, if he said that he had no father-son relationship with the emperor, he could still feel inexplicably sad when he heard that the emperor was in poor health, but if he said how deep his feelings were, he didn't seem to have seen his father's hearty smile since his mother died, nor did he hear the words of care and love, when he was sad and sad and even his life was dying, only the imperial brother was by his side, and even the master was more like his father than his father.

Brother Huang? Thinking of the imperial brother, he hurried to the study, he wanted to write a letter to the imperial brother, so that the imperial brother came back as soon as possible, the imperial capital was already in turmoil, if the imperial brother did not come back as soon as possible, he was afraid that he would ...... He didn't know that his imperial brother, Liu Sheng, had already galloped on the official road back to the imperial capital.

In the distant night, only a bright moon hung lonely in the sky, sprinkling a faint light on the world and in the gloomy and dark palace.

In the imperial study, although the lights are bright, it gives people a feeling of being as empty as a tomb for no reason.

The emperor raised his head from the back of the chair and slowly opened his eyes, the light in the room made him uncomfortable for a while, and he couldn't help rubbing his eyes, this rubbing, everything he had just seen disappeared, it turned out that after such a while, he actually fell asleep and had a dream.

In the dream, his beloved, his queen, snuggled up to him, their two children, also around his knees, everything in the dream was so happy, but when he woke up, it was a different person.

Elegance. He muttered, and seemed to hear her gentle and beautiful voice in his ears, and her peerless face was still shaking in front of him, graceful, he muttered, I will accompany you, and when Sheng'er and Rui'er are settled, I will accompany you......

"Your Majesty, it's time to drink the medicine."

When Gonggong Wu saw the emperor wake up, he hurriedly reminded in a low voice.

The emperor looked at the decoction kept warm with hot water on the imperial case, the blood that had just vomited on the table had been cleaned up, and next to the decoction were moistened honey-stained plums, and a bowl of steaming bird's nest, he picked up the bowl, drank the medicine in a few sips, took the tea handed by Gonggong Wu, rinsed his mouth, and used bird's nest, and then ordered: "Taifu Xuan, several Shangshu lords and Shu Commander came to discuss the matter. ”

"Yes." Duke Wu was ordered to retreat.

There is no need to look back, Gonggong Wu also knows that the emperor on the dragon chair has swept away the weakened and decadent Tang just now, and has become straight and energetic again, but such an emperor makes him even more worried. (To be continued.) )
