Chapter Forty-Eight: Stepping into the Spring Forest
However, it was said that Liu Bang had repeatedly mentioned the deposition of the prince several times in the past two months, and all the ministers wept and persuaded the emperor to cry in front of his knees. Empress Lu was even more anxious to pay close attention to this matter in the Weiyang Palace, and every time she knew that Liu Bang was angry in the deep palace because the minister did not cooperate with him to depose him, Empress Lu put her hanging heart back in place, and looked at the vast sky, thanking God for protecting the prince, but she also resented the emperor and Qi Ji even more.
Midwinter has ended, followed by the dawn of spring in March, spring returns to the earth, the grass grows and the warbler flies, the bright flowers are rotten, and the sky is gratifying. Liu Bang took Mrs. Guan and Mrs. Qi to the forest garden to step into spring. After experiencing the haze of the cold winter, the upper forest garden is more and more charming and bright, the forest trees exude the faint fragrance of green, the flowers and plants compete to crowd the lawn of the upper forest garden, the pavilions and pavilions in the distance are more and more coquettish after a spring rain, the pavilion under the flowing water is going to the east, the beasts in the garden are sometimes high-pitched and long hissing as if to really wake up the spring, the mountain eagle soars leisurely in the sky, the eyes of the eagle falcon seem to find the trace of the prey, the vigorous body quickly slides downward, but can no longer see where the eagle falls when the blink of an eye.
Liu Bang stood on the verdant lawn and looked up to admire the vigor of the eagle, two meters away, there were simply three dark cases and three mats, a wine bottle, three wine jue, a few fruits, and a few snacks. Mrs. Guan and Mrs. Qi both sat between the soft seats, and when drinking, they did not forget to look at the beautiful scenery in the garden, the mountains and flowers were splendid, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and they were full of vitality; A breeze suddenly felt fresh and happy, as if the breeze blew away the chaos and heaviness in my heart. Mrs. Guan took a few breaths of fresh air on her back, praised the harmony, tranquility and freshness of spring, and when she was alone and happy, she sent a quick speech to Liu Bang and Mrs. Qi to indulge in spring, and said with a smile, "Spring is the spring sun, spring is the occurrence, spring is the dew, the spring is the sum of the sky, and the beginning of all things." Happily laughing and seeing the clouds in the sky transform, his eyes were already full of longing and intoxication, focusing on the sky and smiling, "I will turn into clouds in the next life." After that, he giggled at Liu Bang and Mrs. Qi, but saw that neither of them said a word, and there was unspeakable sorrow on both faces, as if the two of them did not pay attention to the splendor of the spring in this garden, Mrs. Guan immediately smiled and frowned and thought for a long time before knowing what was going on in the hearts of the two of them, and suddenly did not dare to be alone loudly and wantonly cheerful, reorganizing her clothes and sitting at the banquet drinking wine and taking everything she could see in her eyes, her eyes were full of beauty and freshness, and she unconsciously smiled innocently.
When Fang was intoxicated by the spring color, he heard a crisp and moving song in the distance, and the song was like a yellow warbler's cry, "...... Spring is late, and the trees are blooming. Cang Geng, picking Su Qiqi
β¦β¦
There are vines and grass in the wild, and there is no dew. There is a beautiful person, clear and graceful. Encounters and encounters are suitable for my wishes. There are vines and grasses in the wild, and there is no dew. There is a beautiful person, as graceful as Qingyang. Encounter and meet, and the son and ...... "The song stopped, and I saw a group of thrushes flying up on the branches in the distance, and under the thrush stood two people with jade pure flowers, two pairs of bright eyes with an innocent smile, and the petals of the attached hand smelled the fragrance of flowers.
"Zi'er-Yinhua-" Mrs. Guan couldn't wait to go towards them when she saw that it was Zhao Zi'er and Shi Yinhua, and she was already standing in front of them with a smile, "Coincidentally, the weather is good and I met you, so I'm going to see Your Majesty soon." When Zhao Zier and Shi Yinhua had time to be stunned, they had already been pulled by Mrs. Guan to Liu Bang, and the two saluted Liu Bang. Liu Bang smiled and helped in the air, "Spring is fine, it is suitable for you to go to the spring garden, you can chat slowly." After saying that, he couldn't hide it and left with his hands behind his back. Zhu Ji looked at each other, Mrs. Guan forced Zhao and Shi to sit in the banquet, and Zhao, Shi and Mrs. Qi nodded slightly.
Liu Bang couldn't hide his thoughts on his face, and walked and thought and sighed, Fang lowered his head and thought about it, but saw Lu Hou in the forest flowers hugging Liu Chang coming over, Lu Hou's eyes were all on Liu Chang in his arms, and Liu Chang was always laughing with Liu Chang to make little Liu Chang giggle, that little Liu Chang has been in Lu Hou's palace for more than a year, and gradually became familiar with Lu Hou's voice, appearance, laughter, clothing and body taste, Xiao Liu Chang has already subconsciously regarded Lu Hou as his biological mother, and when he was amused by Lu Hou to laugh happily, he often burst out of his mouth in a hurry, "Mother-mother- Every time Empress Lu heard Liu Chang call her mother, he had already forgotten his birth and his mother, and thought that Liu Chang recognized her as his mother, so he responded eagerly and happily, "Heyββ, I am your mother, grow up quickly, grow up and respect your mother." Looking at Liu Chang's smile in his arms, Empress Lu also smiled happily, holding him tightly in his arms and refusing to let go. Dai Qing saw that Empress Lu was a little happy recently, and he was happy for Empress Lu, because Empress Lu lived with courage in the middle of winter, and he was afraid of a winter. Dai Qing was sincerely happy for Empress Lu, and praised Liu Chang with a smile, "The little prince will definitely be extraordinary in the future, and his demeanor is particularly handsome." "Yes, yes." Lu Hou responded.
Liu Bang saw his mother and son laughing and laughing, but he hadn't seen Empress Lu and Liu Chang for four or five months. Liu Bang knew that he and Lu Hou had a deep conflict for the prince, and they had a whole winter, he and Lu Hou completely put themselves and Lu Hou on the two peaks to face off, but after all, no one won or lost, but both of them knew in their hearts that each other's intentions were not to back down, and if the two of them were like sandpaper, they could break the situation if they poked it, and the domestic chaos could not be cleaned up if they stabbed it, so even if they knew each other's hearts, they didn't dare to break the sandpaper, so they were embarrassed to meet in addition to being dull. Liu Bang knew that this cold winter had deeply hurt Empress Lu, and the important reason why he didn't go to Changxin Palace was that he was afraid of angering her and stimulating her. Spring is the season when the grass grows and the warbler flies, after a deep haze of winter, everyone goes out of the house to visit the garden, originally Liu Bang and Mrs. Qi are in the Yuzao Palace, and can't bear Mrs. Guan's repeated shouting and then came to the forest garden, but he has no intention of appreciating the flowers and butterflies, he knows that the result of not helping Qi Ji is that Qi Ji and Ruyi can not save their lives, so he is depressed day and night and can't sleep.
When Liu Bangfang didn't hide from Empress Lu's hesitation, Empress Lu was already within five steps of him, and suddenly looked at each other, and the two of them were either ashamed to avoid or follow closely, or their eyes were furious or they only had a plain smile in their eyes. Liu Bang didn't know what to say for a while, he looked at Empress Lu and his son Liu Chang for a long time, and when Liu Bang's guilty old eyes chased back to Empress Lu, Empress Lu lowered his head and smiled at Liu Chang, "Ah Chang, see your father." Lu Hou transferred Liu Chang in his arms to Liu Bang, who was stunned, Liu Bang hugged Liu Chang and kissed him again and again, showing a fatherly intimacy on his face, "Ah Changhe, I haven't seen you for four months, I miss my father." The little Liu Chang confessed his life, and was transferred by his mother to a stranger and cried loudly, Liu Bang was stunned and didn't know what to do, patted Liu Chang to ease up, and coaxed like a panicked child, "What are you crying about?" I'm your father. Empress Lu stepped forward and leaned over and smiled and coaxed, "Ah Changxiu is crying, it's Daddy." Said that the little Liu Chang saw Lu Hou, but he really stopped crying and laughed again, and muttered, "Mother-mother-" Lu Hou touched Liu Chang's little hand and laughed with him, but Liu Bang was embarrassed with an old face.
When the two of them were focusing on Liu Chang, Mrs. Qi and the others in the distance saw the queen coming to Shanglin Yuan, and they didn't dare to sit quietly in the banquet, so they hurriedly walked over and saluted Empress Lu respectfully. Empress Lu looked at them one by one but didn't say a word, but turned back to Liu Bang and said, "It's been a long time outside, and every day at this moment, Ah Chang must drink some soup." Before the words fell, he had already taken Liu Chang back from Liu Bang, who was a little nostalgic for Liu Chang, smiled at Liu Chang, and said affectionately, "Ah Changhe, my mother will take you back to drink soup." Empress Lu had no anger, no resentment, no resentment, no words to Zhu Ji and Liu Bang, and turned around as plain as water, and hugged Liu Changchang leisurely.
Liu Bang looked at the back of Lu Hou, who was indifferent, and sighed, there were mixed tastes in his chest, and he hadn't seen Lu Hou for more than four months, and Lu Hou didn't lose his temper with him, which made Liu Bang more and more uneasy. "It's as if no one has children, no matter how intimate they are, they are not born of you." Mrs. Guan said coldly to Empress Lu who was walking away, but before the words fell, she saw Liu Bang's eagle-like eyes fixed on her face, and she only said sharply, "She is your master, don't respect her, Liu Chang was adopted by the queen of me." Full of anger, he turned around and left, and Zhu Ji looked at each other and left.
