The Wuqi Palace is named after the five oak trees in the courtyard. According to legend, these five pressing trees were planted by Lao Tzu after he traveled here after passing through the Hangu Pass. There is the royal pen inscription "Qingwu view" in the palace, there are many monks in the view, there are two unicorns in front of the view, one zhang and three feet high, the mouth seems to swallow the sky, the foot is like the posture of the clouds, it is the thing of the former Qin Shi Huang Lishan tomb to suppress the demon and subdue the demon. With these two auspicious things, Liu Che cherished the Wuqi Palace, but felt that he was very unwell, so he came to the Wuqi Palace to recuperate. In summer, the leaves in the palace are thick and thick, towering to the sky and covering the sun, which is the best place to escape the heat. But in winter, only the branches are abrupt, and the jackdaws are flocks, and it is a bleak and desolate scene. This winter is extremely cold, after the death of Mrs. Gou Yi, Liu Che took a few close ministers of the inner palace to move to the Wuzhu Palace, some said that the Son of Heaven was to avoid the courtiers who were noisy about the establishment of the prince, and some said that the Son of Heaven was concentrating on praying for blessings. How do you know that after arriving at Wuqi Palace, Liu Che's illness became more and more serious, he ate less and said nothing every day, did not eat water and rice, and only drank the heavenly water received from the Chenglu plate on the Xiantai, and the people in the palace did not dare to come out, which was even more sad. It was night, the time had passed, the Son of Heaven was asleep, his consciousness was blurred, and he suddenly had a dream, dreaming that he and Wei Zifu were walking in the Wuqi Palace, Liu Zhi was jumping in the back to catch grasshoppers, the flowers had fallen, the summer fruit was beginning to grow, Liu Che was satisfied, grabbed Wei Zifu's slender jade hand and said: "I can get the king and the son in this life, and I am willing to be a mandarin duck and die." ”

The husband suddenly smiled coldly and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine is in the tomb under the Tongbai Pavilion a mile away, there is no maidservant, and there is no use, and I feel very desolate, why don't you see Your Majesty to see the concubine?" The concubine has been traveling for several years, and she has not seen my son, so why don't you see Your Majesty looking for my son? ”

At this time, Mrs. Gou Yi came from nowhere, took the other hand of the Son of Heaven and said, "Your Majesty, don't forget your promise, don't forget." ”

As soon as the words fell, another peerless beauty suddenly appeared in front of her, bowed to the Son of Heaven, and complained: "Your Majesty, the concubine has never dared to hope that the descendants will be dragons and phoenixes, why is Your Majesty so ruthless, he actually forced Ji'er to death, his brother Guangli, for the Han world to go deep into the desert, although there is no great merit, there is no great fault, and in the end it is just a fate that the whole family is wiped out, the concubine's heart hurts, it hurts." ”

When the Son of Heaven heard this, he was shocked into a cold sweat, and slowly opened his eyes, it turned out to be a dream, and he saw that there were several people standing in the shadows, led by Fu Ling, I don't know when he was edicted in. Liu Che understood that this was the last moment that God had arranged for him, and he panted and tried to touch it from his sleeve. Guo Sui hurriedly pulled out a golden silk book from the sleeve of the Son of Heaven.

"Xuan." The Son of Heaven said a word with all his might. Everyone knelt down.

Guo Sui held back tears, opened the silk book and saw that it was indeed written by the Son of Heaven, but the content was very brief. Guo Sui only glanced at it and read it aloud: "The edict said: Liu Fuling will be appointed as the crown prince and will be enthroned on the same day." Huo Guang, the commander of the Che Du, was the great Sima and the general, Jin Riyan was the general of the Che Cavalry, the servant Shangguan Ji was the general of the left, and the Commander of Sosu Sang Hongyang was the doctor of the imperial history. ”

Huo Guang was secretly happy, and took the lead in shouting: "Although the ministers can't repay the grace of heaven when they die, they must do their best to protect the Han River!" After the exhalation, everyone found that the Son of Heaven seemed to have something to say, Huo Guang hurriedly moved to the side of the Son of Heaven, and said to the Son of Heaven's ear: "Your Majesty, is there still a will?" The Son of Heaven tried to make a sound, and Huo Guang hurriedly put his ear to the face of the Son of Heaven, only faintly hearing the words "according to, sick". Huo Guang probably guessed what it meant, but now that the new emperor has decided, and he is the first auxiliary minister, he doesn't want to make any mistakes, so he just pretends not to understand, the Son of Heaven is more and more anxious, and he doesn't say a word in the end, and the wind passes through the candle and goes out.

Huo Guang looked solemn, slowly stood up, choked up and said, "The Son of Heaven has died!" ”

In the past few days, the palace has been busy, the first emperor's funeral, the new emperor's ceremony, Huo Guang did not dare to be sloppy at all, for fear that he would not be able to suppress being laughed at, and he also happened to use these major events to pay attention to talents from all walks of life, promoted a group of cronies and cadres, and replaced the guards of the deep palace, especially a group of people from other dynasties, and the situation gradually stabilized.

Guo Sui in order to repay Bingji's virtue, to quietly recommend Bingji to Huo Guang, Huo Guang had also heard about Bingji's rescue of the emperor's great-grandson, although he didn't take this down-and-out great-grandson to heart, but it shows that Bingji is loyal and courageous, and now is the time to employ people, Huo Guang left Bingji by his side. Bingji never imagined that it was the life-and-death battle that night that made Guo Sui, an old palace man who was accustomed to seeing deceit, regain his hope for the Han Dynasty.

Huo Guang, whose name is Meng, is a native of Pingyang, Hedong, is the half-brother of the late Sima Huo Quai, and Huo Quai's aunt is exactly Wei Zifu. It's not that Huo Guang is ruthless, it's just that the situation is too chaotic, at the beginning of the new emperor's accession to the throne, there was Liu Dan, the king of Yan, who asked people to spread the word that Mrs. Gouyi had an affair with Jiang Chong, and the new emperor was not the first emperor's own son, and I don't know where the news came from.

These constant news made Huo Guang uneasy, in case this child was used, it would be a great enemy for the new emperor, no matter what, he couldn't let the sick stay in the capital anymore, so Bingji quickly found a way to get rid of it. It just so happened that Tian Zun reported that his great-grandmother Shi Zhenjun's house was in Jingzhao Yindu County. Shi Zhenjun was born Shi Gong and Shi Liangdi, Shi Gong was the Zhonglang General and Liangzhou Thorn History during the first emperor Yuanzhan period, Shi Gong was deceased, leaving three sons, the eldest son Shi Gao, the second son Shi Zeng, the third son Shi Xuan, the Shi family was originally from the Lu country, after Shi Liangdi entered Beijing, the Shi family moved to Du County, and the life was good, but after Shi Liangdi died, there was no reward and the business was broken. And the historian is from the state of etiquette, pays attention to the inheritance of family learning, is deeply influenced by Confucianism, has a good family style, and is a good family. Bingji felt that it was very suitable, so he took leave from Huo Guang and decided to personally take the sick Du County and his party.

"Grandpa Tingwei, you haven't come to see me for three days, is something wrong?" The empty county arrived in prison, and the illness was as coquettish as before.

"No, no, there are too many affairs between the DPRK and China these days." Bingji affectionately touched his sick fluffy hair, thought for a while, and said: "Sick, Chang'an City is too chaotic, Uncle Tian found your great-grandmother's house, in Du County, grandpa will send you to ......" Before he finished speaking, his voice choked first, and he suddenly felt that he was too ruthless, but what if he was not ruthless, maybe one day the illness would become an arrow on someone's crossbow, and he would not shoot others to death, and he would be crushed first.

After all, the illness is already big, the last time he gave amnesty to the world, although he didn't figure out what was going on, he also knew that the prison was really not his home, and sooner or later he would have to be sent away, after a while, he stared at Zhao and Hu, the two nurses, and said: "I listen to grandpa, but I am reluctant to let the eldest mother and second mother go." When Zhao and Hu heard this, tears fell from their eyes.

Bing Jiqiang held back tears and said: "Good people will eventually have good rewards, and people who are destined will eventually get together again, the eldest mother and the second mother are good people, we can always meet again one day." ”

The two nurses said: "Good boy, you have to try to remember the eldest mother and second mother, come to us if you don't eat well and dress well, as long as we don't die, we will give the best to my illness." ”

I couldn't help it anymore, and hugged the two nurses and cried: "When the illness grows up, I will definitely go to you, and I will give you everything you haven't eaten or worn!" "The two nurses are crying silently, this farewell, I don't know if we can see each other again in this life?

Bingji took out a few strings of money and stuffed the two nurses and said: "Thanks to the two nurses in the past few years, the illness has been preserved, please accept a little entanglement!" ”

The two nurses excused themselves in every possible way, and Zhao Zhengqing said: "If it weren't for adults, my sisters would have turned into unjust ghosts, and they have been fed and clothed in the past few years, and they are satisfied, and they will never dare to expect anything else. Adults are rare good people and good officials, if all the officials in the world can be like adults, we ordinary people will have a good life. Bingji had to secretly stuff the money into the baggage of the two nurses.

Bingji specially hired a carriage, filled two skins with water, and bought new clothes for the sick for four seasons. Tian Zun drove, the illness was already nestled in Bingji's arms, Ah Huang also obediently lay on the side of the sick man's legs, and the three of them and one dog set off before dawn. This is the first time that the disease has really come out of the prison, Chang'an City cars and horses gradually became noisy, the building was revealed against the white background of the fish belly, the restaurant was steaming, the three of them used mushroom rice and meat soup, Tian Zun bought some steaming soup cakes for the road to satisfy hunger. The sick had already looked left and right, and suddenly pointed to the southwest direction and shouted: "Grandpa, look, there is a tall building there." ”

Bingji followed the prestige, that is Weiyang Palace, by virtue of the terrain towering, like a dragon with its head high, a solemn atmosphere, you can see it from afar. He replied casually, "This is the palace," and said no more.

The illness didn't care about the change in illness's expression, and muttered to himself: "It's strange, the palace is so big, why does Grandpa Zhao say that the palace is not good, and tell me not to approach it for the rest of my life." ”

Bingji said: "Sick, these words are rebellious, don't say it in the future, as long as it's something in the palace, don't interject, someone says what's going on in the palace, you don't pay attention, you must protect yourself, remember." Sick today is unusually obedient, nodded deeply and stopped talking, only turned his head to look at the mountains and rivers all the way, from high-rise buildings to grass houses, from avenues to paths, white clouds float like lotus flowers in the blue sky lake, unknown crops exude an intoxicating fragrance, small fish in the stream stir up ripples unbridledly, willows all over the place are tall and dark green, shadowless birds chirping, summer flowers are a little bit of butterflies, wild lotus cuicui is stationed in the mantis, the dog jumps to chase the white rabbit, and the golden cicada bursts call summer, that is the scenery he has never experienced.

The carriage is much faster than the ox cart, the sun has not yet set, the cart turns into a small city, the gate tower is not high and hangs a big "Du Cheng" plaque, after the city tower, and around and around to an independent house in front of the house, the door of the black wood house is closed, and there is no name on the door. Bingji changed into an official uniform and woke up the sick, and Tian Zun got out of the car and buckled the door. After a long time, there was a vigilant "Who!" Tian Zun explained, and it took a while before the door slowly opened. The door was opened by a heroic young man and an old servant. The boy looked at a few people and led them in. Although the house looks low on the outside, it is not small on the inside, and it is also a large household in the county. Passing through the two patios, several people came to the guest hall, there was a small self-made plaque hanging on the guest hall, which neatly wrote the three words "Ming Confucian Hall", and there was an old woman, a woman and two teenagers sitting in the hall, and several people saw that people were coming and stood up.

Without waiting for Bingji to speak, the old woman came up, threw away her cane, took her sick hand, looked her up and down lovingly, and said in Lu Yin: "You are the grandson of the prince's family?" ”

He didn't dare to talk to him because of his illness, so Bingji hurriedly said: "It is the grandson of the late prince Liu Ju and Shi Liangdi." ”

When the old woman heard this, she put her arms around the sick and began to cry, crying and crying: "O my poor child, my daughter who is miserable, she has done evil! "It took a long time to let go of the illness that I didn't know what to do. The old servant had already prepared the food and drinks. The old woman wiped her tears and said: "The old man is rude, the two adults will eat first, we countrymen don't have anything to eat, and we don't know how to be polite, don't blame the two adults." ”

The two sides sat down after a while, introduced each other, and greeted each other, it turned out that the old woman was the sick great-grandmother, and the three teenagers were the three sons of the Shi family. Bingji saw that the Shi family was well-educated and had a good illness, so he relieved himself and drank a few glasses. Speaking of the sick life, the Shi family couldn't help but sigh, and the old woman was even more reluctant to let go of the sick hand.

Shi Gao was the eldest, and he said with his illness: "With my uncle here, no one can bully you, this will be your home in the future, let's learn literature and practice martial arts together in the future, go on outings together, and have a happy time." ”

Bingji said: "Childe is right, I also think so, don't mention me in the future, don't mention the things that happened before the illness, when the world is stable, I will quietly find a way out for him, and I have two things here." As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized bag from his arms and gently unfolded it, which was the treasure mirror and belly pocket of the year. Bingji introduced the origin of these two things, Shi Zhenjun touched the delicate multicolored silk rope, thinking about his daughter's appearance, and couldn't help but feel sad for a while. Bingji said: "This is the only thought that the prince's family has given to the sick, and the emperor has also seen it, and I hope that the old lady and the three sons will take care of the illness." ”

Several people agreed, Shi Zhenjun personally accepted it and put it in his arms, touched his sick head and said, "Wait until you are older to bring this rare thing, so as not to be snatched away by the wild children in the countryside." ”

At night, the illness has lived in the same room with Shi Gao, Bingji lived in the upper room, Tian Zun lived in the wing, the night of the small town was very quiet, the insects chirped endlessly, and I felt relieved to think that the illness had been able to have a decent home, but when I thought of the future of the illness I didn't know where it was, I couldn't help but worry again, and I didn't sleep well all night.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, Bingji got up, set up a car with Tian Zun, and prepared to leave quietly. When he was opening the door, he suddenly heard the sick man shouting: "Grandpa! Bingji turned his head to see that the sick man was running towards him like a tearful person, Bingji couldn't hold back any longer, bent down to catch the sick as usual, hugged him tightly in his arms, and the big tears hit the sick hair.

Shi Zhenjun coaxed for a long time, and the illness came down from Bingji. The Shi family prepared another meal, but Bingji couldn't refuse, and set off when he ran out. Bing Jiqiang smiled and said to the sick: "Listen to my great-grandmother and uncles obediently, learn to be a man who stands up to the sky, and we will definitely meet again!" ”

The sick had cried and waved his hand, until he couldn't see Bingji's carriage and refused to go home, and Ah Huang also sat quietly by his side. Shi Gao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Little guy, go to the bow field with your uncle to watch the juju, and your uncle will take you to see the first god foot in Du County?" ”

"What is Kemari? Who is the first god foot? The disease had been captivated by Shi Gao's exaggerated expression.

"That's me!" Shi Gao's movements were even more exaggerated, and the amusing illness was already smiling.

"Go, go, go around, you're already walking around the streets, buy some good food, and then cut some fabric for the sick, but be careful to see if you're sick, and touch your skin carefully." Shi Zhenjun knocked on the ground with his cane and laughed. Sick enough, he took Shi Gao's hand, followed his three uncles and an old servant into the market, and disappeared into the vast sea of people......
