Chapter 536: Contrary to the hearts of the people
You know, as an emperor who is admired by everyone, if even he begins to feel afraid or fearful of other countries and other forces.
In such a long time, the end of this country may only come to one road, and that is the road to destruction.
And it is precisely because he is born to understand this too clearly in his heart that he is afraid that others will see what he is thinking.
Although in the eyes of outsiders, he is still in the prime of life, in fact, Emperor Tiansheng himself knows that his body is now too badly damaged, and he will not last long at all.
Now he can insist on sitting in this position again, and the one who knows the hearts of the people will choose the next heir who is enough to inherit the throne, and then help him remove the obstacles, so that he can get rid of all threats and others, and just focus on his own affairs.
And all those obstacles that may become the new emperor, Emperor Tiansheng does not allow it, and it is absolutely impossible for a prince with a different heart to be the emperor throne that should help the world and think about the people of the world.
At least in Emperor Tiansheng's heart, even if he can't be a good father, then at least he should continue to maintain the image of this Ming Jun, and he should continue to continue for the people of the world and the Tiansheng Dynasty he founded single-handedly.
Instead of allowing a person who is only full of careful thinking, but who is not really able to inherit the ability of unification, let alone has the talent of the world, to take on such a great responsibility.
No matter how suitable this person once seemed to him, it was absolutely impossible to do it after recognizing his true face.
Emperor Tiansheng recalled the trust and favoritism he had for him before, and the gaze in his eyes, which was already a little desolate, couldn't help but feel an inexplicable meaning again.
Thinking about the past events, Emperor Tiansheng's eyes, which were already a little cloudy, clearly revealed some nostalgia and trembling, "If Gu had paid more attention to Concubine Shu at the beginning, the current situation would have become different?" ”
Hearing this, Liufu stood aside so quietly, just listening to Emperor Tiansheng say as if talking to himself, but he never made any response, only occasionally greeted one or two voices, to show that Emperor Tiansheng continued to speak so that he could vent the emotions in his heart.
Liufu has been by the emperor's side for a whole life, and it can be said that it is rare to see an emperor in this state, or that he can only see this time in this life.
Because Liufu understands that the emperor in his current state is enough to show that he is already in a state of exhaustion, and it may not be long before he chooses to abdicate.
And as soon as Emperor Tiansheng abdicated, then his position as the personal eunuch next to the emperor would come to an end.
Xu is because the time the two are locked together, even much longer than the time the emperor has been with his concubines or ministers, and there are many words and things that cannot be said to the people next to the pillow or to the subjects.
So this so-called emperor, in fact, the only person who can really speak his heart is the Liufu around him, who can let him talk about these things and what he thinks in his heart.
"In the first half of my life, I was indeed not a good father, but in the end
Yes, during my reign, at least Tiansheng did not have any natural disasters**, and even if there were, they were all solved, at least...... At least during my reign, this Tiansheng really didn't make a big mistake, how could it be like this now...... Ahem......"
The further back he spoke, the more his voice filled with a strong sense of sorrow, especially at the end, Liufu could clearly feel the loneliness from Emperor Tiansheng.
For a while, the entire hall became extremely dull because of Emperor Tiansheng's thick sad emotions and words. That kind of lifeless atmosphere really makes people feel a little oppressive and breathless.
Even Liufu, who has been following Emperor Tiansheng, has really rarely seen Emperor Tiansheng in this appearance.
And he was really surprised that the emperor, who had been in this high position for half his life, would finally show this sad emotion because he was afraid of becoming a real loner in the future.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, you are now suffering from the cold, or Mo Yan will continue to criticize the folds. With a little helplessness in his eyes, and with a little distressed exhortation.
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" However, Emperor Tiansheng, who was still coughing here, shook his head, "No, now that Nanliang is attacking, Xiu'er is defending his family and country in the frontier, and I can't let this matter affect him." ”
"It's better to get rid of it as soon as possible...... Ahem, ahem, ahem, ......," said Emperor Tiansheng, and directly picked up the brush from the table again, took a little cinnabar, and continued to review the stack of folds in front of him.
However, Emperor Tiansheng, who was already in poor health, not only had to deal with these affairs presented from various places during this time, but also had to deal with the part of the forces left by Long Zhengning in the court before.
Moreover, since this period of time, there have been many oppressions and various behaviors from the queen's side, all of which are constantly exerting pressure on Emperor Tiansheng, and there is no way for him to recuperate from the injuries in his body.
When Liufu saw that Emperor Tiansheng put his mind on these folds again, he couldn't help but sigh silently in the depths of his heart, "Your Majesty, these folds can still be reviewed tomorrow, but now that it's dark, Your Majesty, you should go to bed early." ”
"A few days ago, Mr. Sanqing also specially instructed the old slave, saying that he wanted to let His Majesty rest more, and not to work too hard. Otherwise, if the injury on your body is aggravated, Mr. Sanqing will scold the old slave again, right? ”
Although Liufu's words still mean persuasion, compared to the previous persuasion, Luofook this time instead pulled all his words to himself.
Hearing this, Emperor Tiansheng, who had always been worried, finally loosened his eyebrows because of this, and then saw him shake his head a little helplessly, and said in a tone like joking with an old friend: "You, you, are all so old now, why are you still like a child?" ”
I don't know whether it was Liufu who was reprimanded or ridiculed, but he always had the happy look on his face.
"Your Majesty is telling the truth, the old slave is telling the truth. What Mr. Sanqing said, who doesn't believe this, old slave
It's also for the sake of His Majesty's body. ”
Seeing that the face is already obviously old, his expression is no longer as energetic as many years ago, but there are still some signs of depression.
For Emperor Tiansheng, who once refused to accept old age and thought that he could continue to sit on this throne for many years, now he saw that Liufu, who was only a few years older than him, had gray temples and began to grow old like tangerine peel on his face.
Looking at Liufu with this appearance, even if he was dissatisfied with the old Emperor Tiansheng before, he had to admit it at this moment, he was no longer in the prime of life, and when he was hunting in the spring and autumn, he could still gallop with those young men who were just reaching the crown, and he had already opened a distance as big as a ravine.
It's just that before these things happened, because he didn't have the same sadness in his heart as he is now, even if he was a little physically powerless, he ignored it.
So before these things happened, Emperor Tiansheng didn't actually admit that he was old. But now, even if Emperor Tiansheng didn't want to admit it, his body would indeed be unable to support it for a long time.
Not to mention, as it is now, because of doing one thing for a long time, you will have backache and back pain, and from time to time you will have to come to the doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
But in the end, the problem that the doctor said is just that people are about to grow old, and after entering this age ring, all that is needed is rest and recuperation.
But after really sitting in this position, it is not easy to say that it is recuperation, but it is not easy to be able to worry less.
Therefore, Emperor Tiansheng, who was sitting in this position, sometimes felt that he was unable to do it, and he had to hold on in order to be strong in the future.
But the stronger he is holding on, the more his body will become worse, and there is a tendency to have worse stools.
In the past, this kind of situation like a dead cycle would only make Emperor Tiansheng's body worse in the end.
But in fact, how could Emperor Tiansheng not understand this truth?
But at the same time, he also understands that the position of the emperor he is doing now, if he is not careful, he will be a real loner.
And what he did in the past has made him regret it, so now he wants to make up for it even more.
"At least...... In the future, there will always be someone who listens to me. Emperor Tiansheng, who whispered these words, may not even have noticed it herself, and the words he just said unconsciously had already changed his self-title to "I".
Although Emperor Tiansheng himself did not realize this. But Liufu, who had been standing beside him, was very keenly aware of this.
You know, if you have been in this position for too long, it is absolutely impossible to change it so easily in terms of title.
But now, the emperor in front of him has not only changed the title he has maintained for so many years, but even the way he has changed is all because of the inexplicable desire for family affection in his heart, otherwise he would definitely not say it unconsciously.
