Chapter 60: Challenges
When King Wei heard the words "heart for the world", his brows furrowed, he couldn't have imagined that Liu Xiu's words today were so obvious, and there was a hidden intention to demonstrate to him.
He was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, and the atmosphere became subtle again.
At this moment, Chen Fuxin's eyes flashed, took a step forward, and said to the two kings:
"Your Royal Highnesses, the matter of 'conscription' is a matter of great importance, and there will be no results for the time being, after all, it is better to discuss it slowly, His Royal Highness has been running all the way, and there are many hardships, why don't you discuss this matter tomorrow?"
Liu Xiu saw Chen Fuxin speak, there was an unknown meaning in his eyes, and in a flash, he nodded, stretched his waist, and smiled at King Wei:
"Yes, I have been working hard all the way, tired and tired, and I have been confused, I don't know what to say, if there is any offense in my words, I hope King Wei will forgive me."
Liu Hongwen was stunned for a moment, Liu Xiu's attitude today is difficult to grasp, but the words have come to this point, and he has no good way to deduce again, so he had to return the salute and said:
"Then don't disturb His Highness's rest, I'll retire for the time being."
Song Xunwen still wanted to speak, but suddenly felt Sun Zhengwu next to him pull his shirt, he turned his head to look, and saw Sun Zhengwu with a solemn face, and he and Minister Chen Fuxin saluted Liu Xiu and said goodbye.
He glanced at King Wei's face and was shocked, and when he saw Liu Xiu's eyes, he had no choice but to bow down and bow down.
And Princess Wei also stood up at this time, wearing rings and touching each other, crisp and sound.
Everyone's eyes were instantly drawn to it.
I saw a generation of flowers, in the room, blooming brilliantly.
Liu Xiu's eyes rippled slightly, reflecting the past time, the delicate water lotus flower by the inner river, bowed her head, and waited to be released.
In that trance, he didn't notice that in the corner behind him, where the sun couldn't shine, the lonely figure was quietly looking at him.
She waited quietly for him to turn around, laughed, and said:
Keeping you waiting for a long time.
However, his gaze always stayed on Liu Ziyu, and he never left any tenderness behind him.
Wen Ya's tears couldn't help but flow.
Ten years together, a night of spring breeze, after all, it can't be worth the childhood sweetheart, the two have no guesses, even if the lover of his dreams is already someone else's wife at this time, the mother of a country.
She finally held back her heartache and lowered her head.
After the ceremony, King Wei led the crowd to say goodbye, walked a few steps, saw that the princess did not follow, looked back, and saw Liu Ziyu bowing his head in front of Liu Xiu, with affection in his eyebrows.
He couldn't help but clench his hands, suppressing the anger in his heart with the pain of his nails embedded in his flesh, so that he could keep himself as calm as possible.
It seems that a long time has passed before Liu Ziyu came to his side.
But in a short distance, it seems to be close to the end of the world!
His eyes were cold, and he greeted him with a smile, and in Liu Xiu's deep gaze, he grabbed the princess's hand, held it, and clenched it, so that she couldn't break free.
The two saluted Liu Xiu again, ignored everyone's faces, and slowly withdrew.
Walking out of the palace, getting into the carriage, and pulling up the curtains, King Wei looked at the little light revealed by the curtains on both sides, looked at the somewhat dark and congested carriage, suddenly smiled bitterly, and said to the princess:
"Ziyu, you've been married to me for more than two years, right?"
The princess was stunned for a moment, and nodded subconsciously.
Seeing that she was not as emotional as he imagined, King Wei suddenly became furious, he clenched his fists, waved the void a few times, and roared in a low voice:
"I can't imagine that after so many years, you and Liu Xiu still miss each other, it's really a beauty and affection, and a hero has regrets, today I know what it means to be close to the end of the world, life and death!"
Liu Ziyu snorted coldly after hearing this, don't turn his head, and ignore him.
Seeing this, King Wei's already gloomy face suddenly turned up with hatred, and he sneered:
"Okay, very good, this king has been in a bad mood recently, and there is nowhere to vent the fire in his chest, I heard that the next person built yƬ, saying that the method of 'hot yellow eel' has a miraculous effect on relieving fire, and I want to borrow Mrs. Lady's body to try it tonight!"
The princess trembled, turned her head to look at King Wei, there was indescribable fear in her eyes, and she said in a trembling voice:
"Liu Hongwen, don't go too far! You know in your heart that you and I are originally political marriages, and we have different dreams in the same bed! Why do you have to complain and force each other? You have been tormenting me for more than two years, in the past two years, I have not even stepped out of the palace, I have not had the slightest contact with the Luo Jing family, today I see the old man homesick, a slight gaffe is not right, you hate me, resentment of me, but don't ruin my reputation, bad reputation! ā
After speaking, biting her lip and turning her head, watching the sunlight beating freely between the gaps in the curtain, she subconsciously stretched out her hand and clenched it into a fist.
After hearing this, King Wei sneered, and said in a weird manner:
"It turns out that Mrs. is homesick, no wonder, but Mrs. rest assured, within a few years, I will take Mrs. 'back to my hometown' and live in Luojing City forever."
After speaking, he pulled Liu Ziyu's hair, let her look at him, and sneered:
"But before going to Luojing, I will let you and Liu Xiu's life be worse than death."
After speaking, he smiled and said:
"I haven't seen my hometown, I haven't heard the voice of my hometown, you don't want to die early, otherwise it will be difficult for Lingzun Lingtang to ask me for someone when the time comes."
"Liu Hongwen!"
Liu Ziyu's tone obviously had irrepressible anger,
"Don't think that I don't know what you did, the people of the country think that you are the Holy Lord and the Virtuous King, desperately loyal, but what dirty things have you done? Ignoring people's lives, deceiving the upper and lower, I have not been idle in the palace in the past two years, if you really dare to torture me tonight, I will make your layout of the past two years public, and we will break the net! ā
Liu Hongwen laughed after hearing this, and said coldly:
"Okay, then let me see what surprises the princess can bring me."
Liu Ziyu said angrily:
"Aren't you afraid that I will inform the world of what you have done, so as to provoke the people to mutiny and the empire to send troops?"
Liu Hongwen snorted from his nose and said with a smile:
"Do you think you'll have a chance to say it?"
Liu Ziyu's heart jumped suddenly, and the smile on his face seemed to stiffen instantly.
King Wei sneered, suddenly pulled the curtain of the car, and looked out of the car, only to see that the sky was blue, looking high and far away, and the sun shone in through the window unscrupulously, and it was a little warm.
He sighed lightly to calm himself down, and turned his head to look at Liu Ziyu again, only to find that she was also looking at herself, but in the depths of her eyes, hatred was thick.
King Wei smiled lightly, leaned forward, and said to Liu Ziyu:
"I suddenly felt like I was wrong and shouldn't have treated you like this."
He reclined down and whispered in Liu Ziyu's ear:
"It's too early, it's useless to torture you except to relieve hatred, I'm going to find an opportunity to let Liu Xiu see the punishment of the 'Hot Water Yellow Eel' with his own eyes, so that you can open your eyes and see if he really has you in his heart." But in the past few days, I have to follow your wishes, make Liu Xiu proud, and explore his reality by the way. ā
After speaking, he left Liu Ziyu, who was shocked and angry, opened a gap in the car curtain and looked out.
I saw that outside the car, both sides of the road were kneeling with Dongping people chanting "Weiwang Chitose" -
The next day, Liu Xiu led a group of imperial envoys to the Weiwang Mansion to issue various walking documents and hand over the formalities.
King Wei accompanied Liu Xiu, and the two pointed out and laughed in front of everyone as if they were old friends.
The atmosphere is harmonious and enjoyable.
The two were pacing in the house, watching everyone busy, Liu Xiu smiled and said:
"This trip has been disturbed a lot, and King Wei forgives his sins."
Liu Hongwen waved his hand and smiled:
"This is my business, Your Highness is polite."
Liu Xiu smiled slightly, swept the busy crowd with the corner of his eye, and said:
"King Wei is busy with official affairs, and he has to investigate the 'conscription' case, I have nothing to do, why don't I just walk around Dongping?"
As if he was afraid that King Wei would refuse, Liu Xiu added:
"I have always heard that Dongping City is prosperous and beautiful, and I have been yearning for it for a long time, and I can't wait to visit it immediately, so I also ask King Wei to be accommodating, let me and my subordinates walk around in Dongping at will, and fulfill my heart's wishes, of course, although Weiguo is a vassal of the empire, but after all, the government has already been established, I will never spy on the secrets of your country, interfere with the affairs of the government, and please rest assured that King Wei."
Liu Hongwen was slightly stunned, pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said:
"It's really unfortunate that Yan is gathering troops in the grain stockpile, and the wolf's ambition can be seen, I believe that His Royal Highness will soon set off to Pingyan North to fight the enemy army, and even lead the army to go out to fight the enemy capital, this king should have let His Royal Highness rest in Dongping for a few days, have a good time, but the remote state does not know the demeanor of the great country, this time His Royal Highness led the soldiers must be experienced in a hundred battles, this time the king's subordinates heard that the elite of the kingdom came to Dongping, and they asked for help, and wanted to see the demeanor of the people of the kingdom, so I made my own opinion, and arranged for the soldiers on both sides to try it out. Of course, the subordinates of the lower kingdom did not dare to use the word 'competition', so they had to ask for advice. ā
Liu Xiu was slightly shocked, and he didn't know what Liu Hongwen meant for a while, but Wa'er on the side couldn't help but ask:
"Tournament? Playful! I don't know when His Royal Highness King Wei will arrange the competition? ā
King Wei didn't seem to mind the status of War'er's attendant, and replied with a smile:
"Three days from now."
Liu Xiu nodded after hearing this, and there was no expression, he turned his head to look at Wa'er, then looked at King Wei, and said lightly:
"Since this is the case, there is nothing to say, but according to the orders of the king of Wei."
After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the door, and said indifferently:
"Three days is a bit rushed, so I'll go back to prepare and arrange manpower, and I'll leave first."
King Wei nodded and sent him out.
At the gate of the palace, I watched Liu Xiu's figure get into the carriage and slowly walked away.
Everyone in the house was still busy, but there was silence outside the door.
Outside the door, the flowers are in the final battle of beauty at the end of summer, and the green trees are gloomy and want to wither.
Where the breeze rises, there are many flower petals, which fall to the ground and turn into mud.
King Wei suddenly felt a trace of unease, and an atmosphere of non-existence floated back and forth at the gate of the palace.
