Chapter Seventy-Three: Sending the Old Grandson

On the winter solstice of that year, Emperor Wei was not Emperor Wei, but the crown prince of Chen, the predecessor of Wei, when Wu's army often crossed the Liaoqi hunting grounds to the western border of Chen to make trouble.

Emperor Wei, who was not yet Emperor Wei, and Liu Zhanguo, who was not yet a general, led the army to the border line of the Liaoqi Hunting Ground in Western Xinjiang, and their task was to press the army of Wu back, and how many miles they could press it depended on their ability.

The march took half a month, when he arrived in the western frontier, he didn't say a word and fought with the border army of Wu, the two sides fought fiercely back and forth, the war lasted for more than three months, and finally ended with the defeat of the border army of Wu, and the border army of Wu that Liu Warring States pressed them retreated for a full three hundred miles!

When Emperor Wei and Liu Zhan Guo led the army back, it happened to be Gu Yu, passing by a melon field, the two glanced at each other, and saw a tacit understanding in each other's eyes.

They immediately ordered the army to rest, and then the two of them sneaked into the melon field and opened several melons in a row to eat. The shame is that in the end, it was discovered by the old man, and the old man chased the dog all the way.

One was the prince of the dynasty, and the other was already a Wupin general at that time, and he didn't dare to look back when he was chased by a dog, and it is estimated that people will laugh off their big teeth when they say it.

When the old man saw the rows of soldiers standing on the dirt road, he instantly fell to the ground in fright, and the dog also shivered and hid behind the old man.

"Old man, we marched all the way, there was no taste in our mouths, I really couldn't hold back, I'm sorry, I thought we bought it. "Emperor Wei, who was still the crown prince, sent a money bag to the old man, and it was not easy for an old farmer like them to grow some melons and fruits.

"No, no, no, I can't take this money, you are the soldiers who beat those Wu barbarians away, right?" The old peasant waved his hand again and again, refusing to hand over the money, the Wu barbarian in his mouth, that is, the border army of Wu State.

After the old peasant reacted, he also stood up from the ground, and he was not afraid at all, what are the soldiers of our own country afraid of?

"Old man, you can take it. Emperor Wei, who was still the crown prince, insisted on letting the old peasant be under his hands.

"Two generals, then you wait here. The old farmer finally accepted the money bag, but did not let the two go.

"You must wait for me, don't leave yet!" the old farmer still told him before leaving.

Emperor Wei and Liu Zhan Guo glanced at each other, and saw doubts in each other's eyes, not knowing which one the old peasant was singing.

Not long after, the old farmer's figure with a sense of vicissitudes appeared in the field of vision of the two, the old farmer behind a cart, the cart was full of melons, I am afraid that there are hundreds of pounds, in the back of the cart, the front foot of the dog on the cart, the back foot pedaled hard, very sensible to help the owner push the cart.

Emperor Wei and Liu Zhanguo hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man pull the cart containing the melon onto the road.

"Old man, who are you?" Emperor Wei asked with doubts.

"You have worked hard to protect your family and defend your country. Because of you, I can grow melons here with peace of mind, and I don't have to worry about those Wu barbarians coming over and destroying my melon field. ”

"Every time you go to the battlefield, we, the little people, are actually worried in our hearts, but we don't say it, for fear that you will have concerns in our hearts. I don't understand the big truth, old man, but to fight, you must have an indomitable momentum, how can you do it if you are concerned?"

"Therefore, we, the little people, hide all those worries in our hearts! The cry when we celebrate your return from a great victory is that we vent this worry in our hearts. ”

"This melon, given to you, is a little less, but it is also a little bit of my heart. If you don't want to support your family, the melons in this melon field can be eaten by the soldiers as they please!"

"Okay, there are still a few pieces of land over there, so I won't bother you on your way, old man. If you are hungry one day, you will come to me again to steal melons, old man, I will steal them for you for free, and I promise not to let the dog chase you. ”

The old farmer laughed and finished speaking, turned around and left with the little earth dog, and when he walked to the middle of the field, he couldn't cry silently: Son, you are still here, and you are one of them, right?

In the humble room, there was a set of battle armor, a rusty broken knife, and a tablet on the wooden cabinet, and a tablet with a simple inscription on the back of the tablet: Sun Yongchang, died in the 342nd year of Chen Guoli, at the age of nineteen.

......

"Your Majesty, steal a melon?" Xuanyuan Hongyu thought he had misheard, and repeated it again in disbelief.

"Yes, steal a melon, go quickly, if there is a dog chasing you, report my name, so that you can make it!" Emperor Wei said seriously.

"......" The corners of Xuanyuan Hongyu's mouth twitched, and he thought, Your Majesty, are you making fun of me?

"Go quickly, give you a stick of incense time, I want to eat fragrant and sweet melons. ”

Emperor Wei glared, Xuanyuan Hongyu smiled bitterly in his heart, looked at the melon field in the distance, and said a word to Xuanyuan Jingcheng to protect His Majesty, then jumped out of the carriage and ran wildly, the target was the melon field.

"Old man, I don't know if you are still in the world, the years are really ruthless. Emperor Wei's eyes seemed to have alternated years, touched his sideburns, and pinched off a white hair, it has been so many years in a flash, and now he is here again, is it a reincarnation?

Not long after, Xuanyuan Hongyu really came back with a melon, walked to the frame and knelt on one knee, holding the melon in both hands.

"Your Majesty, your melon. Xuanyuan Hongyu's voice carried these resentments.

"What's wrong?" Emperor Wei heard that something was wrong.

"Your Majesty, your name is not good, I have been chased by seven or eight big dogs for several miles. Xuanyuan Hongyu said aggrievedly.

Emperor Wei couldn't hold back his laughter, "You were really chased by a dog?"

"No, a few particularly fierce dogs, thanks to an old woman who came out to stop the big dogs. Xuanyuan Hongyu said.

"Oh, old woman?"

"Yes, the old woman also asked your Majesty to sit with her, saying that the old man of her family wanted to see His Majesty. ”

Emperor Wei's expression froze for a second, and then with a hint of imperceptible joy, the old man was still there!

"Let's go, let's take a look. Emperor Wei said and got up and got out of the car directly.

"Your Majesty, it just rained a few days ago, and the fields are too muddy......" Xuanyuan Hongyu was interrupted by Emperor Wei before he could finish speaking.

"I've also been on the battlefield, are you still afraid of these mud?" Emperor Wei waved his hand, motioning for Xuanyuan Hongyu and Xuanyuan Jingcheng to follow him.

Xuanyuan Hongyu and Xuanyuan Jingcheng glanced at each other, not understanding what was wrong with Emperor Wei, but they still hurriedly followed.

When Emperor Wei came to the melon field, he saw an old woman of about sixty years old and eight big dogs there, probably waiting for him.

So, Emperor Wei quickened his pace a little and walked over.

"The grass people knock to your majesty. The old woman was about to kneel down and salute, and Emperor Wei hurriedly took three steps and rushed up on both sides to support the old woman.

"The old man is not polite, but the old grandson is in the house?" asked Emperor Wei.

After Emperor Wei ascended the throne, he once invited someone to visit Lao Sun Tou, and of course he knew that Lao Sun Tou was called Lao Sun Tou.

"Yes, the old grandson is waiting inside, his body is not convenient, he can't come out to greet him, and he has to trouble His Majesty to go in to see him, hoping that His Majesty will forgive his sins. The old woman bowed her head.

"Xuanyuan Hongyu, Xuanyuan Jingcheng, help the old man come in and rest. Emperor Wei walked to the door and beckoned to the two.

Xuanyuan Hongyu and Xuanyuan Jingcheng hurriedly stepped forward to support the old woman and carefully helped her into the house.

"Huh. When Emperor Wei entered the door, he first saw an old and unshaped dog, and recognized it at a glance, it was the little earth dog that chased him and Liu Zhan Guo at that time.

It's just that I didn't expect that more than 20 years have passed, and it hasn't died yet, and among creatures like dogs, it can be regarded as longevity.

When the dog saw someone coming in, he just moved his head slightly, probably because he didn't have the strength to make a big move.

"We've met, and today I'm coming to see your master. "Emperor Wei actually took the initiative to greet a dog, if this spreads, I am afraid it will be a big surprise.

Emperor Wei looked up, and then he saw the withered old man lying on the bed, if it weren't for his thin head exposed outside the quilt, Emperor Wei might have thought that there was no one under the quilt.

"Old grandson, I'm here to see you. Emperor Wei went to the edge of the bed and whispered to the old man.

The old man moved his neck and turned his head to Emperor Wei's side, but his eyes were closed and not opened.

"You're here, it's been more than 20 years, I've been looking forward to you stealing melons again, and today, it's finally here. The old grandson seemed weak to speak, but he could still hear the excitement in it.

"For more than 20 years, no one has come to steal melons, and today the old woman told me that someone stole melons, and I knew that you were probably here, are you here to give me a ride?" asked the old grandson.

"Old grandson, you ......" Emperor Wei made a look, and Xuanyuan Hongyu stepped forward to check the pulse of the old grandson.

Xuanyuan Hongyu, as the general of the forbidden army, also knows a little about medical skills, after checking the pulse for the old man, Xuanyuan Hongyu sighed and shook his head at Emperor Wei, old man, time is short.

"My own life, I know it, my life is counted, and I can't hide it. The old grandson seemed to be very open-minded.

"I didn't know that you were Your Majesty back then, but when I knew that you were Your Majesty, I was shocked old man. The old grandson said with a touch of emotion.

After Emperor Wei ascended the throne, he invited someone to visit Lao Suntou, who learned the identity of Emperor Wei at that time, and was so frightened that he fell to the ground again. Emperor Wei also intended to invite him to live in Chang'an, but the old grandson politely refused.

Since then, every time Lao Sun Tou drinks with others and brags about it, he can be ranked first! After all, how many people are so honored to have eaten melons in the emperor?

"Your Majesty, you don't have to sigh, I'm eighty-two, what else can't I see? Life and death have long been looked down, but after I leave, please send someone to take care of my old woman." ”

"She is still young, she should live to be more than ten years old, these ten years, she has to live alone, thinking of this, the old man I can't rest assured. I asked Your Majesty to eat melons, so I dared to ask Your Majesty to help with this, and I asked Your Majesty to help. ”

"It's busy, I'm obliged. Emperor Wei promised loudly and nodded vigorously.

The corners of the old grandson's mouth curled, as if he was in a heart.

"Old Sun, do you know that when you took the cart melon, the 300,000 soldiers of the whole army were distributed?" Emperor Wei said.

Your Majesty, don't lie to me, my cart of melons is only a few hundred catties bigger, how can it be enough for 300,000 people. The old grandson said with a hint of disbelief.

"More than 500 melons, 600 people get one, some pound the jam and eat it with their fingers, some squeeze it into juice and pour it into water, each person takes a bowl to drink, some cut it into 600 portions, each person gets a small piece as small as half a fingernail, and eats it without even letting go of the skin, and some ......"

Emperor Wei told the old grandson several physical ways to eat, and there were two more crystal tears on the old grandson's dry face like old bark.

"The soldiers said, sweet, the sweetness that is so sweet that I can't forget it in my heart, the kind of sweetness that I can't forget for a lifetime. Emperor Wei took a deep breath to calm down.

"The soldiers also said that the people trust us, and it is a great honor to be able to hand over the country to us to guard, if you die on the battlefield, there is an afterlife, and you will be reincarnated as a soldier, and by the way, you will come to you again to ask for a melon to eat. ”

"The soldiers also heard that your son died in battle, and they are all willing to recognize you as their father-in-law, and they will all treat you as a son. ”

"I also laughed and said, then your old grandson is the most awesome father in the world, whoever provokes you can jump out of the 300,000 army behind, can you point to this 300,000 army and say, look, these are all my precious sons, try to provoke me again?

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty ......" the old grandson's weak voice sounded.

"I'm here, old grandson. Emperor Wei shook the hand of the old grandson.

Feeling the temperature of Emperor Wei's palm, the old grandson seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, with a sunset-like smile on his face, and then said: "I have to leave Your Majesty, I should also go underground to see my son, father and son can finally be reunited." Thank you, Your Majesty. ”

"I'm Da Wei, and I'm going to be prosperous!"

The old grandson's hand slipped from Emperor Wei's palm, Emperor Wei stood up and took a deep breath, and bent slightly to the old grandson on the bed, "Great Wei Emperor Chen Fengxian, send the old grandson!"

"Xuanyuan Jingcheng, the general of the Great Wei Forbidden Army, send the old grandson!"

"Great Wei Qilin Wei Commander Xuanyuan Hongyu, send the old grandson!"

"Da Wei, Liu Feilong, send the old grandson!"

Xuanyuan Jingcheng turned his head suddenly, and Xuanyuan Hongyu also turned his head suddenly.

Liu Feilong!
