Clear and Muddy Loss of Love

The country is ruined and the family is destroyed without knowing it

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Nangong Rang suddenly asked: "Lu Aiqing has made such an incomparable contribution, what should I reward you?" After speaking, he squinted his slightly drunk eyes and looked around for a week, then said: "My dear friends Also tell me, what should I reward the Taiwei?"

The bustling hall fell silent in an instant, most of the military generals looked happy, but the civil servants with a little wink hung their heads and pretended to be drunk and dared not speak.

"Your Majesty Hong Enchen is grateful, loyal to the king and serving the country is the duty of a minister and dare not ask for rewards."

"Where is Lu Aiqing talking? If I don't say anything about such a world-class feat, wouldn't the world's scholars be chilled?" Seeing Lu Quan's silence, Nangong Rang pondered for a moment, "How about making Aiqing the Duke of Wei?"

Lu Quan got up and went around the table and knelt in the hall: "I am terrified, and dare to beg Your Majesty to take back my order."

Although the Taiwei and the Duke are both of the first rank, the former is an official position and cannot be hereditary; the latter is a title that can be hereditary. It seems that Nangong Rang's award is not inappropriate.

But both Nan Gongrang, who was sitting behind the imperial case, and Lu Quan, who was kneeling under the stage, knew the mystery. This was a temptation that both of them knew.

If Lu Quan generously thanked everyone, everyone would be happy, but if he knelt down and refused to thank him like he is now, it would be a dangerous move.

Nangong let the ulterior motives not to be a drunkard, and the title of wine and title was just the beginning of the withdrawal of military power. Lu Quan knew it well but didn't want to give it up, and the atmosphere of the good palace banquet became secretive.

At this moment, he entered a servant through the corner door, trotted against the wall and knelt down in front of the imperial case: "Qizou His Majesty, the servant has something important to report."

Nangong Rang withdrew his gaze and signaled Sijiu to go down and ask.

The inner servant whispered something in Sijiu's ear, and the latter returned to Nangong Rang and relayed: "Your Majesty Qizuo, Your Highness is so feverish today that she wants to see His Majesty, but the wet nurse is waiting outside the hall with His Highness."

"Let the nanny bring the princess in!"

"Here."

Sijiu took the order, and thanks to this little episode, Nangong waved his hand indifferently: "Aiqing, get up, the matter of rewarding will be discussed at another time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The four servants worked together to open the door of the hall, and the nanny walked in from the main hall holding a girl doll carved in powder and jade.

The girl looked no more than four or five years old, and she seemed a little lethargic at the beginning of the fever.His thinning hair was tied into a double bun and fixed with a golden headband inlaid with jewels. He was wearing a palace dress with wide sleeves of hundreds of flowers and a small scarlet cloak sewn from Shu brocade.

All the officials shouted together: "See Her Royal Highness."

Nangong made Xi smile, and personally ordered the case to take over the daughter from the nanny: "Is my son alright?"

The little girl was not afraid of life, first she called out sweetly: "Father Emperor" and opened her big watery eyes to look around.

Seeing this scene, the princes sitting at the bottom had different expressions.Nangong Rang hugged Nangong Jingnv back to the royal case and sat down, holding the chopsticks to serve Nangong Jingnv's dishes, and her affection was beyond words.

Not counting Nangong Rang, who was pregnant in Concubine Li's stomach, there were five sons and three daughters under her knees, only Nangong Jingnv was a pure direct descendant.

Nangong Rang and his original wife, Mrs. Ma's childhood sweethearts, are very affectionate. Unfortunately, Ma's health has been poor for more than [-] years and they have only given birth to a daughter.On the eve of Nangongrang's ascension to the throne, Mrs. Ma passed away due to illness. After that, Nangongrang cherished this only direct daughter more and more.

Because Nangong Rang never had a crown prince, he simply restructured the original East Palace and gave it to Nangong Jingnv.

Nangong Jingnv writhed in her father's arms and turned around to grab Nangong Rang's beard. Instead of being annoyed, the latter laughed heartily, pushed her daughter's fleshy little hands aside and said lovingly, "Naughty."

Nangong Rang also ordered someone to set up a small case for the nanny to serve the princess. Nangong Rang, who had teased his daughter, was in a good mood: "It's rare that Lu Aiqing is not proud of the credit, so I will reward you with something else. Mrs. Ding stepped forward to accept the seal!"

"The concubine is here."

"I entitle you to be the first-rank imperial wife!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"The two nephews are fifteen years old?"

Lu Quan stood up and replied, "Return to Your Majesty, the dog has just turned thirteen."

"Oh, let's talk about it in two years."

Xing Jingfu from Zhongshushe stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to announce."

"speak."

"Your Majesty has made great efforts to govern since he became the throne, and now he has expanded half of the territory of our Wei country. He is indeed an unrivaled king. I boldly beseech Your Majesty to change the year name to congratulate him, and to open an Enke to recruit scholars from all over the world to enter the court."

A group of civil officials echoed: "The minister will reconsider."

"Prelude!"

The Ministry of Rites discussed and drafted three year names to submit to Tianting, and Nan Gongrang finally chose "Jing Jia" as the new year name.

In the first year of Jingjia, Emperor Qin ordered Taiwei Lu Quan to send his troops northward to pacify the barbarians in Beijing, and to unify the whole world.

In the same year, Enke was opened, exempted from taxes and corvees, and recruited scholars from all over the world, which was praised by all people.

……

Agula hummed softly and slowly opened her eyes, looked at the veil above her head in chaos for a while and sat up abruptly, the stabbing pain in her chest forced her to cough.

She looked down: she had already put on clean clothes, which were made of indescribable materials, soft, and the surrounding furnishings were completely different from the large tents in the grassland.

Agula's last memory stays in Liuhuo's heavy breathing, she hugged Liuhuo's neck tightly and floated and struggled in the turbulent river, feeling the despair in Liuhuo's heart, and she did the same.

"Huohuo!" Regardless of the dizziness, Agula ran out barefoot, covering his stinging chest with one hand.In the yard, I saw a young man about my own age squatting in front of the clay stove to fan the wind.

Hearing the voice, the boy raised his head and saw Agula, put down the cattail fan in his hand and walked over quickly: "Are you awake?" Seeing Agula's bare feet, he frowned and grabbed her arm and walked into the room. While complaining: "My master used several rare medicinal herbs to save your life, why are you running around barefoot?"

Agula's body tensed up listening to the young man's fluent Wei dialect, but he stopped when he was about to break free, tilting his head and looking at her inquiringly: "Can you understand what I'm saying?"

Agula was silent for a moment, then replied in slightly stiff Wei dialect: "Where's my horse?"

The young man was very surprised: "Do you understand Mandarin?"

"Where's my horse?"

The young man stubbornly pushed Agula back to the bed, and pulled the quilt up for her: "Half a month ago, when my master brought you back from the outside, there was no horse following you. I will inform my master later." Waiting for Agula to speak again, the boy ran out quickly.

Agula coughed a few more times, stared at a bulge on the quilt while pressing Sisi's aching chest, and became dazed: the warriors who protected him were wiped out, I don't know if Xiaodie escaped, as well as father Khan and mother...

The door opened again, and the first person to come in was a "weird" in a long black gown, with half a black mask on her face, and the boy followed behind the masked man.

Agula felt a sense of danger and habitually touched the dagger at his waist but found nothing. The masked man took a panoramic view of everything and sat down on the side of the bed calmly: "Listen to Ding You to say that you understand official language?" The voice sounded like The old bellows, which hadn't been pulled in years, were hoarse and eerie.

Agula's fist was tight and tight: Nan people are enemies!But then he thought that his mother was also from the south, and this person saved him, so he let go of his fist and nodded.

"Put out your hand."

The masked man took Agula's pulse, said a few herbs and dosage, and Ding You led the way out of the room.

Seeing that the other party seemed harmless, Agula asked eagerly, "Where's my horse?"

The masked man sighed softly: "You lost consciousness in the river, and it was all because the horse carried you loyally for an unknown amount of time before you managed to get ashore. When I found you, it had lost its strength and died."

Agula was still struggling to digest the official words, but the masked man sighed lightly, and said to himself with some emotion: "A horse is so loyal, it is better than countless people who sell their masters and seek glory in the world."

After a long time, Agula opened his amber eyes and murmured unwillingly, "Is Liuhuo dead?"

The masked man nodded, Agula gasped, bit his inner cheek tightly, clenched the quilt under his body, gasped a few times, forced back the hot tears, but pulled out a series of coughs.

The masked man helped Agula press the two acupoints of "Dayuan" and "Hegu", and patiently instructed: "Although you are awake, the inflammation inside has not completely disappeared, and you need to rest for a while before you can move around."

Agula only felt ringing in her ears, dizziness, angina in her chest, a fire burning from her chest to her throat made her feel unbearable pain, and she didn't even know when the masked man left.

When she was alone in the room, her strength also collapsed. She pulled the quilt over her head and cried silently.

Recalling the little things with Liuhuo in his mind, and worried that Xiaodie and his parents seemed to be torn apart.

Ding You came back with the medicine and called Agula a few times, but there was no response, and he lifted the quilt and the medicine bowl shattered.Ding You hurriedly ran out.

Agula choked into too many rivers before, but thanks to the masked man who spared no effort to save him, he was able to save him.But the unresolved fever in her body could kill her at any time!

The sad news of Liuhuo's death and the concern for his family made Agula exhausted physically and mentally, and he fell into a coma again.

Agula will be on the bed for more than half a year before his body gradually recovers, and it is snowing heavily outside.

Although her body was healthy, she was getting thinner and weaker day by day. Ding You came to the door with a bundle of bamboo slips and carefully fought off the floating snow on her body before pushing the door in.

He saw Agula leaning sleepily on the head of the bed, looked up when he heard the sound, and then became dazed again.

Ding You sighed softly and sat on the side of the bed, seeing Agula's dazed appearance pouring out a pity.In the past six months, although Agula refused to say anything, he had a general understanding of the other party's life experience.The master seemed to know more details, but he was told not to talk about it.

The girl in front of her has no home, and her sister and family members whom she has been thinking about are probably also in distress.

"The master of the interpretation of 'Three Hundred Thousands' said that she will teach you personally. From today on, I will teach you to read "Book of Filial Piety."

"Ding You."

"Ok?"

"I want to go home."

Ding You looked at the emptiness in those beautiful amber eyes, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
