Chapter 106: Reunion after a long absence

After Dolgon calmed down from the royal hunting grounds, he rode back to Prince Yu's palace and beheaded Mi Guiren for "connivance".

After chatting with the housekeeper of Prince Yu's mansion, Dolgon came to the luxurious and lascivious pepper room in the later period of Dorgon, the fragrance of the house was mixed with a trace of fishy smell, Dolgon caressed the wall of the pepper room, he could imagine the physical and mental trauma suffered by Dordo in the last journey of his life, and he could imagine the endless pain and suffering that smallpox and syphilis brought to Dordor. Looking at the puddle of dried diarrhea in front of the couch in the pepper room, Dolgon "hiccuped" and couldn't help but run to the door and vomit. After Dolgon finished spitting, he found the dark blue shroud with a copper coin pattern resting on the corner of the pepper room, he pulled out the Chixiao sword and picked up the shroud and came to look at it, was silent for a few seconds, and then threw the shroud high into the air, swung his sword and slashed it quickly, the dark blue shroud instantly turned into fragments of cloth and floated down, as if all the horror and resentment of Dorgon returned home, as if carrying all the anger and hatred of Dorgon slowly fell to the ground.

"These despicable villains not only poison them, but also use tactics! They really do everything they can! Third brother, if you go all the way, the second brother will definitely avenge you! This revenge is not a gentleman!" Dolgon, whose eyes were red, squatted at the door of the pepper room, looking at the broken shrouds on the ground, and secretly swore in his heart.

Liu Shu and I watched the grief-stricken regent Dolgon, and we felt a sense of sadness, as if we saw a lonely steppe wolf licking its bleeding wounds alone in the setting sun, with the coming darkness and the hunter's trap behind him.

I stepped forward, about to reach out and pat the prince Dolgon on the shoulder to comfort him, but Liu Shu grabbed me, looked at me and shook his head. I understand what Liu Shu meant, and it is better to let the regent Dorgon be alone at this moment, so that his heart can be relieved.

The snow of the palace is so dazzling, the day can not interpret this color of death, the dazzling sun and the cold snow light formed two auroras, in the sound of falling snow between the branches, two aurora lights flew into my pupils, deep into the bone marrow, directly hit the heart, my heart was cold and corrected, I thought: "This huge imperial city, there is really only deceit, intrigue, there is no trace of fireworks in the world, just like this palace courtyard is a little deeper, the snow is fluorescent, cold to the backbone." In the past, there was a mutiny in Xuanwumen, and his own brothers were still like this, not to mention fake lovers like Dolgon and Empress Xiaozhuang? If Duoduo was born in an ordinary family, would he also be a chivalrous man in the world. Duoduo's past exploits are only exchanged for today's scheming. The once commanding, heroic and straightforward general of the god of war became a victim in the struggle for imperial power. If all this was done by the innocent Shunzhi Emperor Fulin, or if Fulin's mother, Empress Xiaozhuang, would be the next tragedy? How will they die? ”

I pulled Liu Shu to the middle of the palace corridor to see that there was no one in front of and behind, I leaned over to Liu Shu's ear and whispered: "Brother Xiaoyao, I also received some rumors, this Empress Xiaozhuang is the widow of Huang Taiji, the biological mother of Shunzhi Emperor Fulin, this woman is committed to marrying the regent Dolgon for the throne of Fulin." Since the regent Dolgon obeyed the Han system, performed Han etiquette, and married a Han wife in Hanzhong, Empress Xiaozhuang has been entangled with the old ministers of Huang Taiji, Sonny, Ao Bai and others to secretly replace the power of the two yellow flags and the Imperial Forest Army, and now the regent has been hollowed out, and the day is precarious. The death of Prince Yu Duoduo is a strong signal that you or the regent Dolgon may be the next to lie down. In my opinion, it is safer for you to resign and stay with my second brother and them. ”

"Brother Kyushu, I know in my heart. I see that Prince Yu Duoduo died so miserably, and the regent's Concubine Lan was designed to be tortured by people in the past, you can imagine that Queen Xiaozhuang's heart is ruthless. After I'm gone, what about you?" Liu Shu patted me on the shoulder and smiled softly.

"Brother Xiaoyao, although I am like a tiger with you, I can't leave now. I remember the last time we listened to the story told by the little monk Aji in the royal hunting ground, the little monk Aji asked the emperor when he would go into the mountain with him, and the emperor told the little monk that he would go back with him to clean up when he was busy with some things, and I wanted to know what the emperor still had to do. Also, I wanted to get more information about Shinto from the palace, and these were the secrets that the regent Dorgon was bent on getting his hands on. I looked at the snow in the courtyard and said coldly.

"Brother Kyushu, you have read the past and the present, and you have the widest range of knowledge, and you are more proficient in history than me. At present, the pattern of the Qing Dynasty has been decided, and it is nothing more than the regent Dolgon being executed by Empress Xiaozhuang and others. Dorgon is dead, and Dorgon's death is no longer in doubt, it's only a matter of time. Only women and villains are difficult to raise in the world!Alas...... You can go too. Liu Shu sighed.

"It's not time yet. I patted Liu Shu on the shoulder and left.

The next morning, after all the ministers had finished saluting, Liu Shuqi, the general of the protector of the country, said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are in poor health, and I ask to tell the old man to return to his hometown!

Dorgon, the regent, was shocked, and so were the people.

Emperor Shunzhi Fulin stretched his neck to look at Liu Shu, and said with a smile: "I see that the general is in the prime of life, full of energy, and full of energy, why doesn't he look like he is sick?!Is the general joking with me?!hahaha......"

"Your Majesty, half a month ago, the imperial doctor diagnosed the minister with hysterical anxiety, which is not a big disease, but a big patient will have all kinds of nerves, nonsense speech, scolding, indiscriminate smashing, and even set fire to people's windows and doors, which is difficult to control and cannot extricate himself. When the minister fell ill, the minister's family members could not bear it, and in a panic, they pressed the minister to the ground and tied the minister with a rope. After the minister's illness faded, he untied the shackles on the minister's body. Liu Shuyi said sternly and in horror.

"Aiqing, is there still this disease?, why have I never heard of it?" said Shunzhi Emperor Fulin.

"Emperor Qiqi, there is indeed this kind of mad disease, once the patient gets sick, he will bark wildly and bite people wildly! It is more fierce than the Tibetan mastiff in Tibet! My family was a doctor in the era, and my grandfather's pharmacy had such a crazy patient, and the patient also bit off the ear of a pharmacy lady, which was bloody, and it was very cautious to think about!" I said.

"Your Majesty, the mourning family has also heard that this kind of patient seems to have been bitten by a mad dog or a mouse, and it is an incurable disease. Empress Xiaozhuang asked, "General Liu, have you ever been bitten by a brute?!"

"The queen mother Shengming, the minister was a dog in his childhood, and he was accidentally bitten by a dog. Now the virus has been dormant in my body for more than 40 years, and it is gradually breaking out. If the minister gets sick at home, it is a small matter, but if he gets sick in the court, I am afraid that he will hurt the emperor and the ministers; if he gets sick in front of foreign guests, he will lose the face of the Qing Empire! The minister thinks about it, it is better to unload his armor and return to the field! I hope that the emperor will play it on the spot!" Liu Shuyi said sternly.

"Alas...... It was at this time that the disease occurred. Lord Regent Dorgon shook his head and sighed.

Emperor Shunzhi Fulin One Day, the great general Liu Shu revealed his heart so seriously, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and a picture seemed to appear in front of his eyes: a group of wild dogs chased and bitten him, and he fled to the edge of the cliff in terror, shouting loudly, "I am the true dragon emperor! Don't bite me!" while stumbling and falling off the cliff.

Emperor Shunzhi suddenly shook his senses, raised his hand and said with a smile: "Quasi-play! Quasi-play! The body is important, Aiqing will go home and recuperate!"

From now on, ministers can use poetry as clothing, mythology as horses, and cloud kings as friends, and the sun, moon and stars, enjoy the beauty of heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, and the end of the world, and be free for a lifetime!" Liu Shu smiled and thanked him.

"Hahaha...... It's good that you're healthy and happy! Tomorrow you won't have to go to court early! The General's Mansion is still yours, so you can be born there and live your old age!" said Shunzhi Emperor Fulin with a smile.

"Thank you, Emperor Longen!" Liu Shu thanked again.

After resigning from the post of general of the Qing Empire, Liu Shu returned to the dissolute and uninhibited and wandering Xiaoyaozi of the year, took out the Wudang sword and wine gourd in the past, filled the wine gourd with wine, and danced with the Wudang sword in the snow fluorescence, singing and dancing every day, enjoying himself, and being happy in life, racing over the gods.

One day, Liu Shu, the son of Xiaoyao, pulled out the Wudang sword in the courtyard and danced his skillful and exquisite swordsmanship, and couldn't help but sing the Xiaoyao swordsmanship in his mouth:

There are buds in spring, frogs in summer, and the sword travels the world!

Autumn yellow leaves, winter snowflakes, slash all the magic!

The sword is in the hand, the wine is in the mouth, and the sorrow is relieved!

Establish the world, build the soul, and sing the world!

Life is short, love is long, and it is difficult to remember, blindly solve the millennium!

Why bother to sigh and sigh every day,

And sell wine, sing and dance, slash demons, and pick up demons!

After reciting the mantra of the Xiaoyao swordsmanship, Liu Shu, the son of Xiaoyao, pulled out the wine gourd stopper on his waist and threw it into the air, and the wine fell from the sky and fell straight into Liu Shu's mouth.

"Easy swordsmanship, urgent as a law!" Suddenly, the sword under Liu Shu's feet flew to his chest, banging, emitting a burst of golden light, and one sword turned into thousands of swords, these swords formed a Taiji circle, and the sword qi spread around in a circle.

A burst of sword qi is like spring thunder and summer rain, shocking thunderbolts, overwhelming, suddenly the wind is blowing, the general's mansion leaves are flying, the maids and the family are shocked, can't help but stop and admire, clapping their hands and applauding: "It is worthy of being a general, and the magic is world-famous!"

"The general is really mighty!"

Everyone looked up, and Liu Shu jumped a few times in the courtyard of the mansion, touched the ground with the tip of his sword, and hung upside down in the air. The sword touched the ground, the sword qi rebounded, and instantly stirred up seven layers of snow, the snow waves flew, roared back, and the snowflakes fell; It is also like a green dragon coming out of the moon, sweeping through the four fields, and trying to match thousands of troops and horses. Ten thousand swords returned to the sect, and a mighty aura between heaven and earth approached the blue sky, and thousands of sword blades were like galloping and agitated wild horses, swallowing the sun and the moon. The sword qi struck the trees in the courtyard, destroying the branches and breaking the leaves, and the snow was full of fallen leaves; the sword qi swept across the water surface of the pond in the courtyard, and the water surface suddenly exploded in rows, and the water column soared into the sky.

"Senior brother, what a set of carefree swordsmanship, wild and uninhibited, like a wild horse, majestic!" As soon as the words fell, the drunk Taoist suddenly appeared riding a gourd. The drunken Taoist jumped down from the gourd the size of a small boat and blew on the big gourd, which became smaller and smaller.

"Senior brother, why are you here?!How are you lately?!Hahaha...... There was no news of that very door goodbye!" Liu Shu patted the drunk Taoist chief on the shoulder with both hands, looked the drunk Taoist chief up and down, and smiled.

"Brother, it's okay, it's ...... Still, let's say it inside!" The drunk Taoist patted Liu Shu back, and for a while he had a thousand words in his heart, and it was difficult to let go.

Drunk, the Taoist and Liu Shu walked into the main hall of the General's Mansion together, Liu Shu waved his hand and said, "Go and prepare the Eight Treasures Refreshment!" and motioned to the maids to prepare tea, fruit and cakes, and the maids had to order them to do it.

"Senior brother, I didn't expect that the three of us senior brothers are the most promising! Now that you are prosperous, impressive, and have become a general! Master, his old man must be very pleased to have a spirit in the sky!" The drunk Taoist chief looked around the hall of the general's mansion, looked up at the ceiling, and said with tears in his eyes.

The maids served eight plates of tea and fruit cakes such as pistachios, almonds, pecans, macadamia nuts, creamy walnuts, crab roe broad beans, Xinjiang raisins, and Ryukyu fried rice, and laid out the eight treasure refreshments one by one, and then poured a pot of good Huangshan Maofeng tea into the tea cup of the drunk Taoist and Liu Shu, and retreated.

"Senior brother, it's over! Senior brother, please use tea!" Liu Shu said with a smile.

The fragrance of tea is lingering, and the memories of the Taoist and Liu Shu's past learning in Wudang Mountain are vivid.

"Well, good tea! I haven't drunk such good tea in a long time!sigh...... Senior brother, last time I was arrested by He Qingfeng's people at the very gate and sent to Zhuxian Mountain, I lost contact with everyone!"

"Then why did you come out?!This time my sister-in-law let you go?!Isn't this very good?! Xiao Beisheng is newly married, it's good for you to see each other occasionally! Otherwise, my sister-in-law will be depressed. Liu Shu said with a smile while sipping pistachios.

"Where, junior brother, Xiao Jue is dead, and there is no such person as Lian Cheng Jue on the rivers and lakes......" The drunk Taoist said sadly, his eyes shining with tears.

"How is it possible?!Sister-in-law's magic power is boundless, who can kill her?!" Liu Shu said in horror, and the pistachio on his mouth couldn't help but fall to the ground.

"I don't know either! After He Qingfeng entered the cave of Zhuxian Mountain, Xiao Jue threw me out of the cave with his tail, and I was thrown out of the clouds and fainted. When I woke up and rushed back to the cave, Xiao Jue had already been buried by her apprentice, the old man of the electric soul. The old man of the electric soul also told me that He Qingfeng's mana reached the sky, and reminded me not to take revenge and send me to death!"

"This ...... It's also possible. Senior Brother He Qingfeng has now become a half-demon and half-human monster, and he can't kill him at all. He now thought that it was made up of thousands of small lighthouse jellyfish with purple and blue bodies and red fluorescence, which could not be eliminated at all. Last time we had a bloody battle in Zhongshan, the dragon god Ao Ming cut He Qingfeng in half with a sword dragon god, but after a while, He Qingfeng recovered and was intact. He's not a human now, he's a monster. I seem to have heard your child say that only powerful elves can devour such monsters. Liu Shu held his chin and said thoughtfully.

"Ah, He Qingfeng, that hypocrite is so powerful now? Just now you said that the dragon god is arrogant? He rode the fire phoenix back to life? How is my child now?!" The drunk Taoist asked a lot of questions, so that Liu Shu didn't know how to answer which one was better for a while.

"Senior brother, He Qingfeng doesn't know how to become so powerful. Long Shenao is the reincarnation of your apprentice's right arm, and the orphan you picked up near Wudang Mountain back then is the reincarnation of Long Shenao. Your child, Liu Changchun, a Kyushu layman, has already started a family, and he married Princess Suzaku of Muguo and gave birth to a son, Liu Xianyuan. You're all grandfathers now!hahaha......" Liu Shu laughed, and the atmosphere in the General's Mansion suddenly warmed up at this moment.

"Really? Xiao Jue didn't tell me anything!hahaha...... I have grandchildren!" said with a drunken smile from ear to ear.

"Hahaha...... If my sister-in-law had told you earlier, would you still be able to accompany her quietly in the cave?!" Liu Shu laughed.

"Green ants are freshly brewed with wine, and the red clay is a small stove. If you want snow in the evening, can you have a drink?Senior brother, let's have a good drink tonight!" The drunk Taoist took out the wine gourd on his waist, shook the wine gourd and smiled.

"Okay!Okay!Don't get drunk tonight!!" Liu Shu said with a smile, "Come on, go down and prepare a mutton scorpion hot pot, add two plates of Mongolian beef, two plates of Sunit mutton, and the daughter of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty!"

"Yes, General!" the maids ordered.

"What daughter is red, come to Wutan!" the drunk Taoist stretched out his hand, opened his palm, stretched out his five fingers, and laughed.

"Okay! Wutan!" Liu Shu said with a smile.

Reunited after a long absence, only good wine and food can relieve a thousand sorrows, on the steaming sheep scorpion hot pot, drunk Dao Chang and Liu Shu while eating and drinking, wine after three rounds, staggered, constantly raising glasses, drinking heartily. It's as if you've drunk all the wine of several lifetimes at once. About a pillar of incense time, the drunk Dao Chang and Liu Shu were drunk.

"Senior brother, what is my son doing now?"

"It seems to be...... Wrong...... It's the national teacher!"

"What countryman?!"

"National Teacher!!, is the teacher of the emperor!"

"What kind of countryman?!It's not fun!What about the prince of the poetry country?!Who do?!"

"It's still him!"

"No! You're lying!!"

"How did I lie?!"

"Why is it a national scholar and a prince again? You didn't lie, can he be separated?!"

"Hahaha...... Senior brother, you're drunk!!"

"I didn't drink too much! you drank too much...... Hahaha......"

"Hahaha......" The drunk Taoist groped for the wine glass in his hand, and suddenly the wine glass fell to the ground and shattered. Drunk, the Taoist gradually fell asleep with drunkenness.

Drunk Dao Chang and Liu Shu fell drunk on the table like this, and fell asleep together with all the past events of Wudang Mountain in the hot pot steaming, the strong aroma of wine, the glowing snow, and the bright moonlight.
