The tall hall, the huge red lacquered columns carved with dragons and phoenixes, the red sandalwood dragon bed, the yellow curtain gently dances, this is a golden and brilliant dormitory, is the emperor's bedroom. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the open curtain, the emperor was half-leaning on the head of the bed, and since he passed out again, in a short period of time, the emperor had lost his shape, and now he could not leave the bed.

Liu Sheng, Liu Rui, and Liu Min have been staying in front of the bed.

"I'm fine." Today, the emperor's complexion seemed to have improved a little, and the whole person was also in good spirits, and after drinking a small half bowl of ginseng soup, he asked Liu Sheng to help him sit up.

The emperor's eyes fell on the three sons in front of him, revealing a rare look of love.

"Father, drink the medicine." Liu Min picked up the cold medicine on the side, scooped a spoonful, and handed it to the emperor's mouth, "Father and the emperor have drunk the medicine, and they will get better soon." ”

The emperor cooperated after drinking the medicine, rinsed his mouth, and patted Liu Min's hand with a smile, "Min'er, go and see your mother, your mother is tired and sick in order to take care of me these days, go and talk to your mother, and say that I am much better, or I will be able to see her in person in person." ”

"Okay, father, son-in-law will go now." When Liu Min heard the emperor say this, his mood suddenly brightened a lot, and he jumped up and ran out after saluting the emperor.

As he ran, he thought that he should go to tell his mother as soon as possible, and tell her mother the news that his father was about to be good, so that her mother would be happy. He didn't see that behind him, Doctor Hua shook his head, and his face did not get better at all because of the emperor's words, but became heavier and heavier.

As the emperor's first imperial doctor, Doctor Hua knows that the emperor is returning to the light, and he just has something to say about Liu Min. Doctor Hua sighed, put his hands behind his back, and followed out of the main hall.

When only the Liu Sheng brothers were left in the main hall, the emperor said to the back: "Dongda, come out." ”

As the emperor's words fell, I saw a middle-aged man in a power suit in his forties walking out from behind the curtain.

"Uncle Xue?"

"Uncle Xue, it's you."

Liu Sheng and Liu Rui exclaimed in unison.

"Xue Dongxuan has seen the crown prince and the fourth highness."

Without waiting for Xue Dongdiu to lean down, Liu Sheng and Liu Rui had already supported him from left to right, "Uncle Xue, you are our savior, how can we accept your courtesy." ”

"Yes, Uncle Xue, you saved me and Brother Rui in danger several times back then, if you didn't have you, I would only be afraid of us......" Liu Sheng said this, and suddenly thought that Uncle Xue appeared in his father's bedroom, could it be that Uncle Xue was sent by his father?

Sure enough, I heard Xue Dongxuan say: "The crown prince and the fourth highness don't need to thank Weichen, Weichen is secretly protecting the two highnesses on the orders of His Majesty." ”

"Father?" Liu Rui turned his head to look at the emperor in surprise, but Liu Sheng had a trace of guilt in his eyes.

The emperor looked at the two beloved sons in front of him with a look of relief, "Sheng'er, Rui'er, when your mother died of illness, your father also suspected that she was victimized, but he couldn't find out the clues, and he was worried that someone would secretly harm you, but my father had a lot of affairs, and he couldn't guard you all the time, so he pretended not to care about your two brothers, in order to relax others' attention to you two, and at the same time sent Dongxuan to secretly protect you, fortunately, Dongxuan lived up to expectations, so that you can grow up to such a big place." ”

"Father." Liu Sheng and Liu Rui remembered the resentment caused by their father's indifference, and they felt guilty and sad in their hearts, and they knelt in front of the bed with a plop.

"Good boy, get up." The emperor stretched out his hand with difficulty, "Sheng'er, Dong Da is the commander of the dark guard beside my father. The ancestors of the Xue family were the personal servants of Emperor Gaozu when they were young, the two grew up together, they were called the master servants but they were like brothers, and the ancestors of the Xue family made great contributions to the world of my Han Kingdom, Gaozu said that the emperor was going to add officials to the Xue family, but the ancestors of the Xue family pushed back, insisted on guarding Gaozu by his side, and swore a heavy oath to set up an ancestral motto, the descendants of the Xue family will always guard the side of my emperor surnamed Liu, and never betray, so since Gaozu, the heirs of the Xue family are the secret guard commanders of each generation of emperors. Sheng'er, when you ascend to the throne, Dong Xuan will hand over the secret guard to Xue Jian to be in charge. ”

Speaking of this, the emperor smiled at Xue Dongdi, "Dongdi, when I go, your burden can be lifted, you have worked hard for half your life, and it is time to rest." ”

"Your Majesty." Xue Dong's deep voice was full of sadness, and a pair of tiger eyes flashed with tears.

"Father, you take good care of your illness, you will be fine with your master."

"Yes, father, Brother Rui is right, as long as Father recuperates well, he will recover soon."

Hearing the concerned words of his sons, and seeing a few pairs of concerned eyes in front of him, the emperor smiled, "The body of the father is the father himself, if there is nothing to do, the father will not be able to survive now." Seeing that Liu Sheng was about to speak, the emperor interrupted him with a smile, "Sheng'er, you heard your father say, now your mother's revenge for her father has helped her revenge, and the Jin family and the Cao family, who have controlled the government for many years, no longer exist, Sheng'er, you are smart and wise, and calm and atmospheric, my father believes that when you ascend the throne, you will definitely make a difference, and you will definitely be able to surpass your father and govern the Han Kingdom more rich and powerful." As a father, I only want you to promise one thing. ”

"Father, please say, son-in-law will obey."

"As a father, I hope you can always love Rui'er, and don't repeat the mistakes of the emperor and the king."

"Father and Emperor can rest assured, the son and brother Rui will be close forever and will not disappoint the father and queen mother."

"Okay, good, I believe your queen mother will be very happy to find out." Although the emperor smiled, his face was tired, and he closed his eyes for a while and then opened them, "My father promised Shu Gui and Min'er that he would protect them, Shu Jiaqi is loyal and brave, Min'er has no ambition, and my father also hopes that you can treat Shu Jia and Min'er well, as for Liu Jing, he has no threat, so let's leave him alive." ”

The emperor sighed, although he was very disappointed with this son, but after all, it was his own son, and he couldn't ignore it.

"Father, please rest assured, the sons will definitely treat the Shu family and the sixth and fifth brothers well...... Although he can't give freedom to the fifth brother, his sons won't treat him badly. ”

"Okay." The emperor got the promise he wanted, and smiled and stretched out his hand to it.

The gray hair was scattered on the pillow, his face was pale without a trace of blood, and the outstretched hands were bulging and skinny, and the emperor's appearance made the people next to him full of sadness.

The emperor stretched out his hand, his eyes had begun to drift, Liu Sheng wanted to grab his hand, who knows, his hand trembled over Liu Sheng and pointed to the top of his head, a gentle smile bloomed on his lips, "Fenghua, you are here." Are you here to pick me up? Fenghua ......"

"Father."

"Your Majesty."

Liu Sheng, Liu Rui and Xue Dong were shocked, and they all pounced.

"Fenghua, I'm tired, tired......"

When the last word passed low from his lips, the emperor's hand fell softly, hanging softly at his side, his head tilted, his eyes closed, and only a cloudy tear slipped through his face.

Hearing the shout, Doctor Hua rushed in, rushed to the emperor's side, probed the pulse, and shook his head sadly.

"Father's ......"

"Your Majesty......"

Crying, wailing, when Liu Min arrived, he saw such a scene, he knelt on the ground softly, and it took a long time to crawl to the bed, he didn't even send his father on his last journey, he was really unfilial, unfilial.

In the thirty-second year of Hongyuan, Emperor Liu Shun died at the age of fifty-two. (To be continued.) )
