After leaving Ning County, Suning continued to walk south, and came to Lingnan, which was called a barren land in the past, but now it is one of the richest areas in the entire Tang Dynasty, where he used to play with all the landlords, and here, there is also a sugarcane orchard he purchased for his family, there is a Su family courtyard, and there is no need to waste people's power to build a place to live, but when the Su family convoy slowly drove into Guangzhou City, only sharp-eyed people found out that this was Su Houye...... No, Grandpa Su's convoy.

They will not forget that in the ninth and tenth years of Zhenguan, Suning came here alone, and then, a barren land became one of the most densely populated and wealthy areas in the entire Tang Dynasty, and it is also one of the places with the most foreigners, and it is also one of the most developed areas for shipping, and it is also one of the places with the strictest rule of law.

People here will not abandon the tradition, every spring will not forget farming, spring farming season, there is no one in Lingnan to do business, spring ploughing, the main strong laborers of the family will come to the sea, engaged in the second profession - seafarers, there are too many sea ships to come here, there are too many foreigners and Datang people doing business, and there are naturally more and more people who need to be hired, and foreign merchants are not clear about the customs here, so they often need more local people to help them.

Local businessmen naturally need locals, foreign businessmen also need locals, foreign businessmen need locals more, so the locals here are obviously not enough, so more and more landless farmers in the north have also gone south, promoting the development of Jiangnan and even Lingnan, Suning first promoted paper money here, the convenience of paper money and the official credibility have been well verified here, so the development of paper money has rapidly promoted the development of commerce, opened the last shackles that restrict the development of commerce, Business began to take off.

Chang'an, Luoyang, Taiyuan, Jinyang, Xiangyang, Changsha, Jinling, Guangzhou, countless large cities set up money warehouses, set up a national banknote issuance office guaranteed by the credibility of the imperial court, the existence of paper money is more and more relied on by businessmen, and in Guangzhou such a large maritime city, paper money has almost replaced the cumbersome copper money, has become the main circulation currency, paper money is no longer the original simple savings certificate, but has become a currency that can be traded and used.

For this reason, after Suning inspected here for a period of time, he wrote a letter to Li Chengqian, asking him to pay more attention to the use and issuance of paper money, how many copper coins there are, how many paper money will be issued, do not really treat paper money as copper money, paper money without copper money as a guarantee, will only cause the country's economic collapse, we must strictly guard the money warehouse, and absolutely not let a copper coin be embezzled, because at this time, even if it is just a penny, it may be an anthill in the embankment of a thousand miles.

In Lingnan, Suning was also well received, the people of Lingnan regard Suning as a benefactor, the God of Wealth, Feng An, who has been running to sixty, is even more so, he also plans to bring Suning to his drunken mansion, Suning waved his hand, a county lord, a princess and a daughter of a princess, that are all tigresses, can't be provoked, Feng Ang laughed, didn't insist, but still took Suning to travel to many places.

Suning himself also went to a lot of places, went to the port to investigate, went to the county capitals and governors to investigate, heard that Li Chengqian has the idea of restoring the three-pole system of prefectures, counties and counties, Suning also agreed, the Tao of the Tang Dynasty is not an administrative division, the administrative division of the imperial court is the state, Zhenguan was okay four years ago, but now, the territory of the Tang Dynasty has expanded three or four times, and the number of state capitals has increased by hundreds, which is difficult to directly manage, and it is urgent to restore the three-pole system.

The customs and customs of various places, the administrative and economic status of various places, and the current situation of the army in these places, whether the garrison is conscientious, whether the generals are conscientious, etc., although the Tang Dynasty also has a rotation system of generals and army garrisons, but it is not as terrifying as the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty directly stifled the country's military talents, and the policy of the Tang Dynasty is only for the military aspect of self-respect, His Majesty Li Er and Li Chengqian will not be as idiotic and cowardly as the Emperor of the Zhao family, if the army loses a strong commander, what is the difference between it and a thief?

Field investigations, careful consideration, careful consideration of words, write a letter to Li Chengqian, inform him of the real situation of the surrounding places, some good places to praise, some bad places to be exposed, reprimanded, Suning in this process, spent year after year, went to one place after another, one poor country after another, one historical city after another, climbed mountains, swam rivers, ate insects, drank mare's milk, with Li Chengqian's order to inspect the world as a talisman, Suning can go wherever he goes.

At the beginning, there were few places to go, the distance was relatively close, and Suning could still go home for the New Year every year, but after a few years, the place began to go far away, and it was also common not to return to Chang'an City once in two or three years, Suning began to march to the newly occupied territory of the Tang Dynasty, to the plateau and mountains that people in Shenzhou regarded as barren, and went to the hometown of Tubo, the hometown of Tuyuhun, the hometown of the Western Regions, the hometown of the Western Turks, the hometown of the Eastern Turks, the hometown of Goguryeo, the hometown of the Wa Kingdom, and so on......

Whether the officials treated the local foreigners rationally, whether the local Han people bullied the foreigners, whether the foreigners maliciously rebelled against the good intentions of the government, whether the land was developed, whether the foreign conscription began, whether the houses were built, whether the war wounds were recovered, whether the economy, culture, and population were developed according to the actual situation, whether the basic policies of the imperial court were implemented, whether the measures were adapted to local conditions, and whether they sought truth from facts......

Year after year, year after year, Suning has never stopped his own pace of progress, he is no longer based on the court, but insists on traveling to places, what the emperor can't see, what the Beijing officials can't see, he can see, he can praise benevolent officials with political achievements, and he will never tolerate the big traitors, he will not ignore the three elders who fight with the faint officials, nor will he ignore the local heroes who collude with the government, where the emperor can't reach is the place where Suning Su's grandfather presides over justice.

Year after year, year after year, time doesn't seem to have brought any changes to Suning, but it clearly tells Suning that it has passed......

Du Ruhui is gone, he has a dream, he wants to be a famous teacher in the world, he walked in the school on the outskirts of Luoyang, after he left the court, he went to be a teacher, a teacher, teaching young children in his hometown Luoyang to read, learn words, famous all over the world, brought out countless students, he knew that his time was short, wrote to Suning to let him come to Luoyang, under the warm sunshine of the winter afternoon, Suning listened to Du Ruhui's last class, looked at the good news letters from the students who participated in the imperial examination brought out by Du Ruhui, and listened to the sound of the young children reading aloud.

On that winter afternoon in the seventh year of Chenghe, Du Ruhui smiled, lying on the chaise longue, as if he had fallen asleep, with his hands on his stomach and a piece of paper, which was Du He's good news, Du He led the Anxi army to annihilate the elite 200,000 Roman legions in the war, achieved a decisive victory, and continued to advance steadily...... Du Ruhui seemed to be enjoying something, Suning knew that Du Ruhui was enjoying the sound of reading and the pride from the child...... Du Ruhui died at the age of sixty-eight, twenty-three years longer than another time and space.

His Majesty Emperor Li Er and Emperor Li Chengqian were greatly saddened when they heard the news, and sent the crown prince Li Xiang and the second prince Li Ju to personally wear linen, and His Majesty the Emperor Li Er and the eldest grandson of the Empress Taishang attended the funeral together, and boycotted the dynasty for three days, and together with the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, Du Ruhui was given the title of Cheng, and was posthumously awarded the title of the first-class Lai Guogong.

Li Jing is gone, he has a dream, he wants to come from the time he came, from the time he went, he walked with Suning on the way back from the Eastern Turkic homeland, he said, his time is running out, there is no regret in this life, the person he loves the most walks in front of him, the most concerned little grandson also has a family, with descendants, he has no regrets, the only thing he misses is that he and Suning met for the first time on the prairie, there, is the beginning of everything, Suning himself misses it very much.

Supporting Li Jing, who was already old and couldn't walk, stood on the grass, Li Jing said to him with a smile, if it wasn't for the accidental doubts at the beginning, he ordered the scouts not to mess around, and it is estimated that the scouts would take Suning's life immediately, then would there be everything today? went to Dingxiang City, Suning saw the traces of the first battle he fought with shit - the traces carved with a dagger, Li Jing also said, if it weren't for the Turks who defended the city didn't know the art of war, you kid could have retreated?

Li Jing has no regrets, in the spring of the tenth year of Chenghe, there was a very beautiful sunset at dusk, Li Jing lay in the carriage, squinted at Suning, held Suning's hand tightly, and ended with a smile, at the age of eighty-five, seven years longer than in another time and space, he wrote several military books, all of which were used as teaching materials for military schools, and the students brought out during the ten years he was a military university sacrificial wine have become the backbone of the Tang army, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the peach and plum all over the world.

Emperor Li Chengqian resigned from the dynasty for three days, personally wrote the word "military god", sent the crown prince Li Xiang to Li Boyao in person, in order to show the royal favor, and with His Majesty Li Er, the Emperor and the eldest grandson of the Empress Taishang, he personally attended Li Jing's funeral, wept bitterly, and posthumously named Li Jing as a first-class defender of the country, and was called Jingwu.

His Majesty Li Er is also gone, he also has a dream, when he was alive, he saw the Tang Dynasty Guotai Min'an, Li Chengqian was shrewd and capable, a year after Li Jing and Du Ruhui died one after another, and in the eleventh year of Chenghe, His Majesty Li Er left the Tang Dynasty he loved forever, he walked very peacefully, very satisfied, a month before he left, the first railway track in the Tang Dynasty was paved, Li Tai's round body chased the first train of this time and space for a long time, His Majesty Li Er sat on the car, smiling very happily; The day before he left, Du He led his army to conquer Constantinople, the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire, and the good news that Wang Xuance had captured the Roman emperor came alive.

A day later, His Majesty Li Er lay on his favorite bamboo raft, Suning personally operated the boat for him, drank the last bowl of fish soup, passed away with a smile, the whole country mourned, the city was full of sorrow, Emperor Li Chengqian cried bitterly, fainted three times, woke up three times, for this reason to strike the dynasty for ten days, together with the ministers for His Majesty Li Er, the name of Emperor Wen, the Duke of Qin Suning said that the name was inappropriate, and it was suggested that he should be drafted as the Emperor of Wenwu Da Guangxiao, and the temple name Taizong, Li Chengqian adopted, and was buried in Zhaoling.

The death of His Majesty Li Er, the Emperor Li Er, brought a huge blow to the emperor Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian was unable to handle government affairs for a time, and the crown prince Li Xiang was appointed as the crown prince of the state to replace the emperor Li Chengqian to handle state affairs.

His Majesty Li Er left with everyone's thoughts, Suning wrote an elegy for him, and buried his life's pride - Wanmin Shu into Zhaoling for him, an hour before His Majesty Li Er died, told Suning that his funeral did not need to be luxurious, and he did not want to live people, the only thing that must be needed was the Wanmin Book that the people played together when he abdicated......

In the thirteenth year of Chenghe, the old minister of the Three Dynasties Fang Xuanling died, Li Chengqian mourned for it, and he called it "the old man of the country" for three days, and in the fourteenth year of Chenghe, the old minister of the Three Dynasties and the famous minister Wei Zheng died, Li Chengqian personally presided over the funeral for it, and wept bitterly in the coffin, saying that when his father was still alive, he always warned himself that a minister like Wei Zheng was like a mirror, he could tell himself what he had gained, what he had lost, and he could avoid making stupid mistakes, and Wei Zheng's death made him lose a mirror.

In the fifteenth year of Chenghe, Li Zhen, the son of Li Shiji, the chief of the General Staff Headquarters and the supreme commander of the army, was wounded in the military operations on the other side of the East China Sea and died at the age of 44.

In the twentieth year of Chenghe, the forty-eight-year-old Chenghe Emperor Li Chengqian fell ill, and after being cured, his energy was not as good as before, Li Chengqian then located in the twenty-eight-year-old crown prince Li Xiang in the eighth day of the fifth month of the twentieth year of Chenghe, called the emperor, personally supported Li Xiang to ascend the throne and called the emperor, handed over the jade seal of the country and the emperor's rune to Li Xiang, and left the palace in great strides, and came to live in the palace of Sanyuan County, where his father His Majesty Li Er, the first emperor of the emperor, once lived, and served the eldest grandson of the Empress Dowager who still lived in the palace of Sanyuan County.

After the crown prince Li Xiang ascended the throne, he announced an amnesty for the world, changed the Yuan Yonglong, and in the 20th year of Chenghe, that is, the first year of Yonglong, the fourth emperor of the Tang Dynasty officially called the emperor, and the people of the world rejoiced, and His Majesty Li Er received a request not to abdicate the letter of the people, Li Chengqian received a letter of 100,000 people praising the abdication of the Emperor Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian left the core of power of the Tang Dynasty with 100,000 people's books majestically, he was very satisfied.

The first thing Yonglong Emperor Li Xiang did after ascending the throne was to try to summon the veteran of the Three Dynasties and the first-class Qin Duke Suning, who was still traveling around the world, back to the court to assist the new emperor, Suning refused, but he himself returned to Sanyuan County with his family, gave Yonglong Emperor Li Xiang a congratulatory note, and then went to the Sanyuan County Palace to visit Li Chengqian.

After leaving the imperial court, Suning felt that time passed quickly, and the white horse passed by, as if he had just attended the funeral of His Majesty Li Er, the emperor today, Li Chengqian is the emperor, and the Chenghe Dynasty passed in a flash, Suning didn't know, whether it was another flash, the Yonglong Dynasty would have passed, and himself, would it be in the ground, Suning always had an illusion, it seemed that he was still a teenager yesterday, and today he is a fifty-year-old veteran of the Three Dynasties, the first person of the Manchu Dynasty.

The eldest grandson Wuji died, Wei Chigong died, Niu Jinda also died, there are few old ministers left in Zhenguan, and those who have survived until now are all veterans, Suning is naturally the youngest one, and with the abdication of Li Chengqian, the courtiers of the Chenghe era also began to decline, Yonglong Emperor Li Xiang is more inclined to appoint young people to take up practical positions, for example, he promoted Suning's eldest son Su Qingren to the position of the right servant of the Zongheng Division, and is the youngest high-ranking official in the Yonglong Dynasty today.

In this regard, Suning raised an objection, thinking that Su Qingren's talent and virtue were not enough to bear such a responsibility, but Li Xiang did not listen to Suning's request, but only soothed Suning, and did not make any more moves, Li Chengqian looked at Suning a little worried, and felt a little funny: "Qingren's child was cultivated by me, from the bottom of the vertical and horizontal division to today, although the age is not very old, but that shrewd and strong I see it in my eyes, the son inherits the father's business, isn't it very good?" ”

Suning sighed and said: "I hope he doesn't inherit everything from me, just do what he likes to do, the title of Marquis of Sanyuan is enough for my Su family to enjoy forever, and the rest, I really haven't thought too much, Qingren can be an official according to my instructions, so what about the children after that, I'm very worried......

Li Chengqian poured a glass of wine for Suning and said with a smile: "As you said to me before, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, what do you want to do so much?" I don't care how far Xiang'er can go, so why should you worry about Qingren? But now, you still can't forget to welcome your dream? This sachet, twenty years, right? ”

Suning was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, looked at the sachet that had been tied to his waist, and showed a look of nostalgia: "Seventeen years, she left me for seventeen years, I don't know where she went, whether she is doing well now, I don't even know if she is still alive, I don't blame her, I have forgiven her a long time ago, before Your Majesty died, take my hand and ask me not to blame her, saying that it is all her fault, he didn't get Meng'er's forgiveness when he was alive, he hopes that Meng'er will forgive him one day, I can go to his tombstone and tell him the news......"

Li Chengqian drank a glass of wine and sighed: "Seventeen years, seventeen years, twenty years as an emperor, I don't know how long I have been the emperor, the elders and old acquaintances in the past have all left, none of them have left, seeing that we are also old, every time we see each other, there is one less, no one knows if we see this time, and there will be no next time, Sanming, if you can still see Yingmeng, tell her for me, I can't live with her, before my father leaves, let me see an opportunity to rehabilitate my uncle, I don't dare, I'm afraid of accidents, I don't know if Xiang'er will do this, but I can't help her. ”

Suning smiled, took a drink from the wine glass, and sighed: "Cheng Qian, since we met, thirty-six years, thirty-six years, we can still be together, why don't you look forward to the next thirty-six years?" When we are all seventy or eighty, we have become old monsters, and we can still drink together, that is the best, Datang has exceeded my original imagination today, really.

I just hope that I can see the train when I am alive, and now I really see it, I hope that I can see the fire gun when I am alive, and now I also see it, I hope that when I am alive, the country and the people are still safe, and Datang is still strong and unmatched, and now I still see it, so I dream that I can see more, see farther, and see a better tomorrow, Cheng Qian, you also hope for this, right? ”

Li Chengqian smiled and nodded: "If I can live for another thirty-six years, I will definitely see what I want to see, and you will definitely see what you want to see, Sanming, really, I really have a hunch, it's really like this!" ”

Suning raised his glass: "Live another thirty-six years!" ”

Li Chengqian laughed and raised his glass: "Live another thirty-six years!" ”

Thirty-six years to live...... Thirty-six years to live...... Thirty-six years to live......

Such words are still lingering in my ears, as if what happened yesterday, as if in a dream, but when Suning woke up from the dream, he was stunned to find that the time was ten years later, in the blink of an eye, Li Chengqian died for five years, he did not abide by the agreement with Suning, Yonglong five years of the first month of the twenty-seventh, the emperor Li Chengqian died in the Sanyuan County Palace, at the age of fifty-three, in the blink of an eye, Suning is also a sixty-year-old sixtieth year, the wife of the knot Li Ruihan died of illness a year ago, and the concubine Ling'er Lan'er died one after another, After Suning lost his friend, he lost his beloved wife and concubine.

In the seventh year of Yonglong, the eldest grandson Chong died of illness, in the ninth year of Yonglong, Yu Chi Baolin died of illness, and in the tenth year of Yonglong, the eldest grandson Empress Dowager Gao died......

Friends left Suning one by one, family members also left Suning one by one, mother died, aunt died, brother Su Dingfang died, the most powerful behind-the-scenes helper Cui Xiaoyi died of illness, the four guards only left Zhang Long is still loyally guarding Suning, Chen Xie died of illness, Wang Hui was dying, Xia Yan was seriously ill, and Xiang Rin was seriously ill......

Suning feels more and more that the longer he lives, for the living, it is a burden, a kind of torture, Suning is no longer willing to stay around Chang'an City, he hopes to stay away from here, it is best to go to a place that no one knows, you can no longer hear the news you don't want to hear, you don't have to bear that kind of pain, no matter who the bad news is, you don't have to know......

There are only his wife Chun'er and his concubine Wu Zhao left by his side, and the two of them are no longer in their prime, and they are in their twilight years, Suning doesn't know what will happen if he loses the two of them? Su Mansion, which was sparsely populated at the beginning, is now more and more prosperous, Suning's youngest grandson, Su Zhe, has reached the age where he can receive military training, and Su Qingren has achieved his former position - the Shangshu of the Vertical and Horizontal Division, and the Su family has become one of the top families in the Tang Dynasty, as long as he is alive, this will not change.

Yonglong Emperor Li Xiang since the death of Li Chengqian, has to recruit Suning into the dynasty several times a year, Suning without exception all refused, would rather be outside for the Son of Heaven to inspect the world, rather than do the position of the first person in the Manchu Dynasty prepared by Li Xiang for Suning - Shang Shuling, this is the highest position of the Tang Dynasty civil official, because His Majesty Li Er once served as Shang Shuling, so the post of Shang Shuling is not easy to grant, and Shang Shuling is equivalent to the real prime minister, if there is Shang Shu Ling, the original prime minister will take a back seat, Becoming Shang Shuling's deputy, that is really under one person, above ten thousand people, and high power.

In Li Xiang's heart, in addition to the last remaining old minister of the Zhenguan Dynasty, Suning, even the still alive demon king Cheng Biting Jin is not enough to assume such a position, not to mention that Cheng Biting Jin also fought a defeat, with a stain, Li Xiang, who has become a mature emperor, hopes more and more to be assisted by an experienced and talented minister like Suning who has no desire to fight for power and profit, Suning's earnest teachings in his childhood have had a great impact on Li Xiang, and Li Chengqian also told Li Xiang before his death that he should "use his father to serve Suning" and there must be no rudeness.

But Suning just didn't agree.

After all the people he knew most well had passed away, Chang'an City was already a sad place, and Suning was reluctant to approach it again.

However, in the thirteenth year of Yonglong, the forty-one-year-old Yonglong Emperor Li Xiang suddenly fell ill, and he was seriously ill in a short time, and before his death, he gave the throne to Li Chang, the fourth son who was only ten years old, and personally helped Li Chang to the throne, changed the Yuan Qianyuan, and then issued the last order to recall Suning, dragging the mortal body, hanging the last breath and waiting, this time, Suning did not refuse, and learned that Li Xiang, who was only forty-one years old, suddenly fell seriously ill, and the sixty-three-year-old Suning hurried back to Chang'an City, and once again stepped into Chang'an City, which had not been stepped into for more than ten years.

Li Xiang waited for Suning, a month before his death, Suning rushed back to Chang'an City, saw Li Xiang who was seriously ill, Li Xiang held Suning's hand with tears in his eyes, and asked Suning to take the position of Shang Shuling, he chose the fourth son Li Chang to succeed to the throne is really helpless, the first three sons are not successful, and the eldest son is even more unsuccessful, he will never allow the eldest son to succeed to the throne, so he resolutely decided to pass the throne to the smart and kind fourth son Li Chang, but Li Chang is too young, only ten years old, he hopes that Suning can assist Li Chang and stabilize the court, shocked the military generals of the civil and military officials, and even the unconvinced sons.

Suning tearfully agreed.

Li Xiang grabbed Suning's hand and said: "May Father Xiang'er teach Chang'er strictly, remember the love and righteousness of the ancestors, grandfathers, and fathers, and protect my Tang Dynasty for thousands of years, Xiang'er is grateful......"

Suning choked up and said, "Minister Suning obeys the order." ”

Li Xiang looked at Li Chang, who was crying, and said solemnly: "After going for your father, you should use your grandfather to deal with Su Xiang, the affairs of the DPRK and China, without the permission of Su Xiang, you must not make decisions without the permission of Su Xiang, and everyone in the DPRK and China must obey Su Xiang's orders, and internal and foreign affairs are decided by Su Xiang, and then they can be put into practice. ”

Li Chang knelt on the ground and cried: "Obey the order!" ”

On the seventh day of the seventh month of the thirteenth year of Yonglong, Yonglong Emperor Li Xiang died of illness in Chang'an City at the age of 41.

The ten-year-old Qianyuan Emperor Li Chang ascended the throne, granted amnesty to the world, and named the first-class Qin Duke Suning as the Shangshu Order, the head of the ministers, commanding national affairs, internal and foreign affairs, and respecting Su Yi, since July of the first year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, Suning became the de facto ruler of the Tang Empire, with a high position, but Suning abides by the courtesy of the ministers, and there is no bullying of the young master, which is a beautiful talk for a while.

For example, the etiquette of the last dynasty is that the emperor sits first, the ministers sit back, the little emperor Li Chang respects Suning, and salutes Suning first when he goes to the court, so that Suning sits first, Suning does not sit, the emperor must sit first, and he sits back, the little emperor is at a loss, Suning has been standing, Suning does not sit, the ministers dare not sit, and finally the attendants around him persuade the little emperor to sit down first, the little emperor sits down helplessly, Suning salutes the little emperor, and says "long live", and then sits down, Suning sits down, and the ministers dare to sit down.

The little emperor repeatedly raised this point to Suning, saying that this was his father's last order, and he should treat Suning with the same etiquette as his grandfather, and it was natural for him to do so. The first emperor trusted the ministers, entrusted the important affairs to the ministers, the ministers were grateful, so they were cautious, did not dare to have the slightest negligence, lest they damage the country's major affairs, Your Majesty is young, but Your Majesty is the respect of all vehicles, the emperor of the Ninety-Five! The Lord of tens of thousands of living beings within a radius of thousands of miles!

After all, the old minister is a courtier, His Majesty is the emperor, and to be an emperor, you must have dignity and know etiquette, otherwise how can you serve the public? The old minister has only been in charge of the government for a few years in place of His Majesty, and when His Majesty comes of age, he will return to His Majesty, will it be only then that His Majesty will know the importance of etiquette? I hope that Your Majesty will not mention this matter again in the future, so that the old minister can rest assured, otherwise, what face will the old minister face to see the first emperor after his death? What are the faces of Emperor Gaozong and Emperor Taizong? ”

The little emperor Li Chang felt an unprecedented feeling of being respected, and since then he has become more and more respectful to Suning, internal and foreign affairs, respecting Suning's intentions, the appointment and dismissal of officials, and even the choice of concubines, Suning must help him decide, Suning gave his own opinion, but also let Li Chang learn to choose by himself, rather than simply relying on himself, he tried his best to let Li Chang understand that the emperor can decide things by himself.

Year after year, Li Chang gradually matured, in the seventh year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, the elders of the Four Dynasties, the seventy-year-old Shang Shuling, the Duke of Qin Suning, resigned, on the grounds that the emperor Li Chang was an adult, had sufficient knowledge, and could be independent as the emperor, and returned to the emperor Li Chang and asked for Zhishi.

Li Chang was shocked, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military ministers were shocked, and asked Suning to continue to stay as the post of Shang Shuling, in charge of the government, Suning was firm in his determination, refused the appointment of Emperor Li Changzhi three times, and insisted on leaving the court, Li Chang repeatedly couldn't keep it, so he had to bid farewell to Suning and leave Chang'an City with tears, Li Chang also planned to enter the king for Suning, Suning insisted on not accepting.

In the seventh year of Qianyuan, during the reign of Li Chang, the fifth emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Suning had no friends of the same era around him, Cheng Yanjin died of illness in the second year of Qianyuan, and he personally drew up a nickname for him, Cheng Chumo also died of illness a year later, Li Boyao died of illness in the sixth year of Qianyuan, Du He, Xue Rengui, Wang Xuance and others were dying, Suning didn't know if he could still see them when he left......

However, Suning has made up his mind, with the old man who followed him, as well as a wife and a concubine, left Chang'an City, and went to Ning County, where he promised to die there thirty years ago, the house has always been cleaned and taken care of, everything is the same as thirty years ago, Suning came here, things are wrong, mixed feelings, and he is not willing to leave here.

In the ninth year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, Li Chun, the eldest princess of Linchuan who had been married for more than 20 years, went to Suning first, and since then only the last concubine Wu Zhao has been left by Suning's side, Suning was heartbroken, and personally built a coffin for Chun'er, wrote the tombstone by hand, and buried her on the right side of the tomb prepared by her family for herself, on the left, her beloved wife Li Ruihan has been sleeping quietly for almost 20 years, and has been waiting for Suning to reunite with her, and the delicate twin sisters are also waiting for Suning's arrival in another world, waiting to continue to be husband and wife in another world.

The long-lived gunpowder prince Li Tai died in the eleventh year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, and the sons of His Majesty Li Er have all passed away since then, and Suning has also lost his beloved disciples, he brought the Tang Dynasty into the steam age, the gunpowder age, giving people unlimited possibilities and hopes, but he will always stay in his own era, and continue to be his own gunpowder prince in his own era......

Suning has never left Wu Zhao half a step since then, and he is not allowed to leave Wu Zhao's sight, for fear that Wu Zhao will go before him, in his memory, Wu Zhao has lived for a long, long time, he has always looked forward to it, but the sky does not fulfill people's wishes, in the thirteenth year of Qianyuan, Wu Zhao died of illness, she held Suning's hand tightly, as if she was desperate not to let her last breath disperse, staring at Suning tightly, tears came out of her eyes, she said that she was reluctant to let Suning live alone, but she did not succeed, The last person next to Suning also left......

Since then, Suning often sits alone under a big mulberry tree, the big mulberry tree was planted by the whole family when he first came here forty years ago, at that time, everyone was still there, and now, no one is gone, there is nothing bad about longevity, but it will be very painful, the pain of the person he loves going away by himself first, Suning is unwilling to bear it again......

The afternoon sun is warm, it is very comfortable to bask on the body, the warm climate of the southern country, the big mulberry tree will not become yellow because of the autumn and winter, Suning walked under the big mulberry tree, raised his head, looked at the lush green leaves, sighed slightly, Qianyuan has been twenty years, he is eighty-three years old, and he and Li Chengqian agreed to live together for another thirty-six years, Li Chengqian broke his promise and left himself alone in this world, but he exceeded the target, although this is not what he wants, Suning is even very worried that God will impose Li Chengqian's unfinished age on himself, if so, wouldn't he be too cruel to himself?

"Don't look at me as just a sheep, the green grass because I become more fragrant, the sky because I become bluer, and the white clouds because I become soft ~ soft ~ Don't look at me as just a sheep, the sheep's intelligence is unimaginable......"

Suning suddenly heard a burst of singing, he frowned, instinctively felt that something was not right, following the song, Suning suddenly saw a shepherd boy riding a sheep walking towards him from a distance, getting closer and closer, getting closer and closer, Suning felt more and more familiar with this song, where did you hear it? When did you hear that? Why, why do you always feel that this song shouldn't appear in Datang?

"I won't be sad if there are any problems to tie up, and I won't panic if there is any danger around me, even if there are wolves by my side, it's just a game~ A ......" The little shepherd boy's song is getting closer and closer, and the people are getting closer and closer, Suning's eyes are gradually moistening, and the little shepherd boy walked in front of Suning's eyes, Suning has not come back to his senses, but the little shepherd boy looked at the old man who was in tears, and was a little puzzled: "Old man, why are you crying?" Is there something sad about it? ”

Only then did Suning react, looking at the cute little shepherd boy in front of him, Suning wiped his tears and asked with a smile: "Xiaoyou, how old are you this year?" ”

The little shepherd boy innocently replied, "Eight years old!" ”

Suning nodded with a smile, and then asked, "Who taught you the song you just sang?" Old man, I seem to have heard it somewhere. ”

The little shepherd boy's eyes widened, tilted his head and asked, "Old man, have you heard of it too?" No, my ancestor told me that she had only taught me to sing alone, and no one else in the world could sing...... Oh...... The ancestor seems to have said that this is what someone else taught her to sing, what is it called, by the way, the surname is husband, called husband! Grandpa, do you know this husband? ”

Suning looked at the little boy in front of him with a smile and asked, "Maybe I know, Xiaoyou, how old is that old ancestor of yours this year?" Are you alright? ”

The little shepherd boy replied: "The old ancestor is old, but he is eighty-six years old, and everyone says that the old ancestor is an old birthday star!" I hope that the ancestors can continue to live and prepare to give the ancestors a ninety birthday! But the ancestor is in good health, and he doesn't need to be helped when he walks! The ancestor also said that she wanted to continue to live, and she still had things to do, but I didn't know. ”

Suning stretched out his palm, smiled, and stroked the little shepherd boy's head while shedding tears: "Little friend, what's your surname?" ”

The little shepherd boy looked at the strange crying grandfather in front of him and said, "My surname is Su, and the ancestor said that this is the ancestral surname of our whole family, and we can't forget my surname Su...... Old man, don't touch the top of my head again, the ancestor said that if you are touched on the top of your head, you will not grow tall...... Old man, why are you crying again......"
