Chapter 0088 The wind of respecting the elderly, Han is the worst
The cane Qi stepped forward and came to a position about five steps away from the Hundred Officials and Meritorious Officials, and saw the oldest old man step forward again, and bowed his hand to the Hundred Officials with respect on his face.
"All the princes are meritorious to the country, and they are the nobles who are killed in the battle array; or a courtier who holds in the temple and plans for the livelihood of all people. ”
After the panicked faces of the hundred officials calmed down a little, the old man turned his head sideways and looked at Liu Ying, who was standing respectfully by his side.
"The plug of Zheng Guoqu has been a long time; The people of Guanzhong have been suffering from water for irrigation for nearly ten years. ”
"Fortunately, Your Majesty cares about the people, and the prince is loyal and filial, and he plans to provide money and grain and forced labor to repair the Zhengguo Canal, instead of conscripting labor for the people."
"This, the great fortune of the world······"
When he said these words in a slow tone, he saw that the old man stopped talking for a while, and seemed to be a little out of breath.
Seeing this situation, Liu Yingzi also hurriedly stepped forward, stroked the old man's back, and did not forget to humbly say with a smile on his face: "The old man praises falsely, praises falsely······"
"This is all the father's benevolence to love the people, and the heart of the people's suffering; The meritorious marquis and the hundred officials are also high-spirited, and they do not hesitate to help the private slaves in the family. ”
"The benevolence and righteousness of the father and the integrity of the minister, the boy has his own heart; However, now, I don't dare to be the old man so praised······"
Seeing Liu Ying's humble posture, the old man took a breath, and then nodded to Liu Ying with appreciation.
After a while, the old man's face slowly swelled up with a little reminiscence.
"Back then, the Second Emperor went against the grain, and the Qin court was dominated by treacherous and corrupt officials, and the world was in constant dispute."
"At this time when the people are suffering, Your Majesty Xingren's righteous army entered the customs, and the soldiers entered the Qin capital Xianyang without bloodshed, but instead of killing and plundering, they first made three chapters with the people of Xianyang."
"After the Han Dynasty was established, His Majesty was worried about the livelihood of our Qiantou (qián), and gave him the lord of the duke, a hundred acres of land, and a farmhouse that could accommodate a family of five, thinking that it was the foundation for our Qianshou to settle down and establish his life."
"Your Majesty's benevolence, looking at the holy kings and virtuous kings of the ages, there is no one who is superior to it······"
As he spoke, the old man couldn't help but pause for a moment, brushing his chaotic breath, and a little sentimentality appeared on his face.
"Alas~"
"In the summer of this year, when I heard that Your Majesty was in the sixtieth year, I still had a sad thought: Your Majesty is old, and when Your Majesty goes with the Emperor, how should we make a living?"
"The new monarch who succeeded him can still care about the livelihood of our Qiantou and regard our Qiantou as his people as His Majesty did?"
With a little sadness, he asked himself, and the old man finally recovered from his emotions in his memories, and when he looked up at Liu Ying, his face full of traces of time had been filled with peace of mind and expectation.
"However, today, when the old man sees the prince in person, he doesn't feel the slightest palpitation, just like bathing in the wind of late spring."
"The prince is not despicable to old age, and he is gentle and affectionate, even more than his nephews in later lives."
"What's more, the crown prince was ordered by His Majesty to repair the Zheng Guoqu, but did not levy labor for our Qiantou, which can really be said to be full of His Majesty's benevolence······"
Speaking of this, the old man finally turned sideways and bowed to Liu Ying slightly.
"Today, I can see the prince's temperament, old and decrepit, and his heart is ······"
"With the crown prince here, Your Majesty will eventually soar one day to rank in the god class, and there are also princes who care about our Qiantou and regard our Qiantou as his people······"
Listening to the old man's words full of true feelings, and looking at the old man's backbone that has been deeply bent by the years, Liu Yingzhong has a slightly dramatic mentality, and can't help but let out a heartfelt admiration in her heart.
"My Daddy······"
Whispering in his heart, Liu Ying turned his head slightly and looked to the east, the direction in which his father Liu Bang led the army.
"There's a lot to learn······
Secretly remembering this self-awakening sentence, Liu Ying stepped forward with a warm face, and helped the old man up with a chuckle.
When the old man straightened up with melancholy, Liu Ying did not forget to smile lightly: "When my father is victorious over Dai and Zhao, and the class teacher returns to the dynasty, the old man, and the loyalty of all the people of Chang'an, I must transfer it to my father." ”
"And the father and the emperor treat the people like sons, and birds and beasts; Even if you are a little older, you should live longer······"
Hearing Liu Ying's words, several old men couldn't help nodding their heads, laughing and saying 'yes' again and again, and not forgetting to gently pat their mouths hidden under their hair.
"Yes, yes."
"Hehe, what Your Highness said is very true."
"If you hear about Your Majesty's benevolence, you are afraid that the priests of the Heavenly Court should also regain your Majesty's hundred-year life······"
With the most sincere and sincere prayer on his face without pretentiousness, the old man turned sideways with a smile and looked in the direction of the meritorious officials.
"Princes ······"
As soon as the words came out, the old man's face once again showed a little self-shame, so he stepped forward again, slowly bent down, and bowed his hand to the meritorious officials.
Seeing the old man bending down, without waiting for the old man's hands to clasp into fists, among the hundreds of officials, a few slightly younger figures immediately jumped out.
"The old man is not like this!"
"Today, although we have been wronged a little, but the old man is approaching old age, even if we have great achievements in the world, we dare not accept the deep worship of the old man!!"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"We are in the temple, but thanks to Your Majesty's trust, we will help Your Majesty to rule the people of the world."
"Mo Yan gave out his private slaves to repair the canal, which is to scatter all the family wealth, and it is not a move within our share!"
"This is all within the scope of things, don't you dare to be a gift for the elderly······"
Within a moment, Fang Cai was still full of horror, and looked at the people and the hundreds of officials, and they all seemed to have changed into individuals, rushing to express how frightened they were when several old men saluted him.
As for Liu Ying, she also held the old man's arm, with a humble and easy-going smile on her face, looking at the scene in front of her, and perfectly played the role of a 'tool man'.
With the outside of Weiyang Palace, those people who were full of peace of mind and scattered in groups in twos and threes, on Artemisia Street outside Weiyang Palace, the atmosphere was surprisingly harmonious.
Seeing that the meritorious marquis and hundreds of officials behaved like this, the old man who was supported by Liu Ying's light hand was also blinded by the wind and sand.
"Okay·······"
"Good ······"
Nodding with teary eyes, the old man turned his head sideways with a smile and patted his arm with a trembling hand, the hand that was carefully supporting him.
"Your Majesty remembers our Qianshou, who is a holy monarch and a wise monarch."
"The crown prince has the benevolence and virtue of His Majesty, and in the future, he should also be a virtuous monarch and a hero."
Speaking with relief on his face, the old man couldn't help but turn his head sideways again, and nodded to the meritorious officials with tears in his eyes.
"The princes lie on the high door and have nothing to do with extravagance, and live in the temple and think of the people's suffering, and they are even famous and famous!"
"Thousands of years later, the princes should also be famous in history, and they will be sacrificed to future generations!"
Full of sure words of praise, the old man ignored Liu Ying's dissuasion, and finally put the dove cane under his armpit, and bowed his hand to the meritorious officials.
"Today, the princes are private slaves in the house to help the prince repair Zheng Guoqu, this sincere and righteous act!"
"However, we are stupid, and we have the heart of a villain to save the belly of all the princes and gentlemen; The righteous deeds of the public are also fools of us, and they are mistaken for conspiracy ······"
As he spoke, the old man couldn't help but shake his head with shame, and looked at the eyes of the hundred officials and the marquis, and also brought a little pray.
"Nine out of seventy years old, and he is nearing old age; He had the courage to fight on behalf of the people, and apologized to the public in front of him······"
"I hope that there are a lot of people, and I don't care too much about the foolish people of our Qian, ······"
"Old, and thank you to all the court······"
