Rebirth Strategy: Please let me go

Snow and clouds rise outside the night window like day, and the cold wind howls all night. Heavy snow is flying in the Imperial City of Kyoto, and there is a thick layer of snow on the blue and white glazed tiles.

In the Xiandu Palace, the great eunuch Li Fengchang, holding a fly whisk, was lying on the bed beside the dragon, sobbing uncontrollably.

There were people kneeling around him, including princes in brocade robes, concubines wearing beads, ministers in court robes, and An Ruhe in armor.

The old emperor on the bed opened his cloudy eyes and glanced at everyone present coldly, and then shouted: "I'm not dead yet, why are you crying!"

Suddenly, there was complete silence in the hall and one could hear a pin drop.

After Emperor Yuan Chong roared, he immediately started coughing, and his whole back was shaking, as if he wanted to cough out his lungs before he stopped.

Li Fengchang got up on his hands and knees and quickly gave him some relief. His face painted with makeup was pale and ugly. He scolded the servants beside him in a sharp voice: "You blind thing, you didn't see the emperor coughing, why don't you?" Hurry and get the elixir and watch your skin carefully!"

The little servant in Taoist robes rushed out of the hall and came back with a red box in just a few breaths.

Because he was running in such a hurry, he didn't pay attention to his steps and was tripped by the threshold. He let out a loud ouch and the box in his hand flew out.

Just as the box was about to fall to the ground and smash to pieces, a black figure flashed past and caught the box that was only a palm away from the ground with lightning speed.

The box was safely caught in the palm of the opponent's hand. Everyone stared at this scene in disbelief. This skill and skill were truly amazing.

An Ruhe looked at the handsome young man in the center of the hall and shook his head helplessly. This kid was still so impulsive. Before entering the palace, he repeatedly warned him not to act recklessly. He just took his words as a fart.

An Jinran held on to the box and strode forward in front of everyone. He knelt on one knee in front of the dragon bed and presented the box: "Your Majesty, please use it!"

Emperor Yuan Chong couldn't stop coughing. He raised his hand as withered as a branch and pointed at him to speak, but every time he said a word, he would cough more violently.

Li Fengchang quickly took the box in An Jinran's hand, poured out a blood-red pill, looked at it carefully, and when he saw that there was no problem, he gave it to Emperor Yuan Chong with the water next to him.

Emperor Yuan Chong stopped coughing immediately after taking the elixir, an abnormal flush appeared on his face, and his breathing became smoother.

Everyone in the venue breathed a long sigh of relief when they saw this, only a few people frowned and looked solemn.

"Okay, all of you, please step back. Hao'er and you, and General An will stay."

Emperor Yuan Chong pointed at An Jinran and said sternly that some of the concubines were unwilling to leave and pestered Emperor Yuan Chong to sleep with him. However, Emperor Yuan Chong changed his past licentiousness and scolded those concubines before leaving.

After everyone left, there were only a few people left in the entire hall. Emperor Yuan Chong sat up from the dragon bed tremblingly and pointed at An Jinran below.

"Sign up."

An Jinran immediately clasped his fists and said respectfully: "I am An Jinran, the legitimate son of the Protector of Yang Yuan."

Li Fengchang, who was next to Emperor Yuan Chong, hurriedly bent down and whispered a few words to him. Emperor Yuan Chong suddenly understood and looked at An Jinran with a look of admiration in his turbid eyes.

"Okay, he is indeed the legitimate son of Anduhu. He has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats at a young age. Was it your idea to siege Weidu at the frontier?"

An Jinran lowered his body and his voice became more submissive: "This is the duty of a minister, it cannot be regarded as merit."

"Why not, this battle directly solved our food shortage problem in the [-]th year of the Great Yuan Dynasty. It is a great achievement, and I will be rewarded! How about giving you a hussar general, hundreds of acres of fertile land, and countless pearls?"

As soon as these words came out, An Ruhe couldn't sit still anymore. He strode forward and knelt beside An Jinran, clasping his fists and declining in a deep voice.

"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty. It's just that the dog is still young and may not be able to take on such a big responsibility. As a soldier, it is his duty to save lives and heal the wounded. Protecting his family and country is his fundamental duty as a minister. If he is rewarded based on his merits in just one battle, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction with other soldiers." , if the emperor insists on rewarding him, just reward him with a golden sword."

"Father?"

An Jinran obviously didn't understand why An Ruhe refused the reward. The An family was already the governor's palace, and adding another hussar general would be the icing on the cake. His An family would also rise accordingly, and no one could match it.

"Shut up!" An Ruhe scolded angrily in a low voice.

An Jinran didn't dare to refute, gritted his teeth and turned around, with a bit of dissatisfaction on his face.

Emperor Yuan Chong laughed twice, but was not angry because of An Ruhe's polite refusal. He waved his hand and asked Li Fengchang to bring him the imperial edict.

Li Fengchang brought the imperial edict and went straight to An Jinran.

An Ruhe's brows jumped and he raised his eyes to look at the person on the dragon bed. He was hunched over and coughing with his lips covered. Even though he was old, he could not hide the majesty of the emperor and the strength in his bones.

Knowing that the emperor was determined to reward him, he lowered his head and sighed heavily.

No matter what, it is a blessing, not a curse, but a curse cannot be avoided. Your Majesty came prepared. Even if he breaks the law today, he cannot avoid this reward.

"The imperial edict has arrived. The An family and his son will receive it!"

"An Ruhe accepted the order."

"An Jinran accepts the order."

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict. I have heard praises for his virtues and his talents. Yang Yuan's legitimate son Su Wei Zhongzheng is both wise and courageous. He is truly a pillar of the country. I highly commend him. In recognition of his outstanding contributions, I have given him a special title. As a hussar general, I will be rewarded with hundreds of acres of fertile land, a golden sword, and countless pearls. I hope he will continue to work hard and live up to my expectations. I admire this."

"The minister accepts the order."

An Jinran leaned over and took the imperial edict.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."

After delivering the imperial edict, Li Fengchang lightly swept the fly whisk and smiled at An Ruhe, who looked not so good at the side, and said, "Congratulations, Yang Yuandaduhu."

An Ruhepi smiled and said, "Eunuch Li, you took the trouble."

There is something hidden in these words, how could Li Fengchang not hear it?

He smiled complacently and walked back to Emperor Yuan Chong. Then he saw him lowering his head and whispering a few words to Emperor Yuan Chong. Emperor Yuan Chong immediately turned pale.

An Ruhe felt a cold light sweep across him. He gritted his teeth and muttered: Damn eunuch, he deserves to die.

Perhaps Li Fengchang said something bad or had secrets that were inconvenient for them to hear. Emperor Yuan Chong expelled him and his son not long after the reward was awarded.

After exiting the palace, An Ruhe looked at the gate of Xiandu Palace with his eyebrows furrowed and worried.

He stood in front of the gate of Xiandu Palace for a cup of tea before leaving with An Jinran.

Not long after they left, a man in purple and a person who looked like a eunuch walked out one after another.

"How long do you have, Father?" the man in purple asked in a deep voice.

"Up to three days."

"Did your father leave any edicts?"

"His Majesty left a verbal message, saying that His Highness the Second Prince will succeed to the throne."

The man in purple stuffed the eunuch with a black pill and ordered in a cold voice: "Give this to your father, be careful and don't let anything slip."

The eunuch put away the pills, and the two of them quickly left after saying a few words without stopping at the door.

As soon as the man in purple walked away, a shadow flashed in the darkness, heading in the opposite direction from where the man in purple left.

The cold wind blew up the snow on the tiles, stirring up the originally calm snowflakes, whistling through the deep palace, and then hiding in a certain darkness until it disappeared.
