Baidi Chunshen

One more thing to ask for.I haven't seen the prime minister for many years, and I have a lot to say to him... I want to spend more time with him.Can you do your best? "

Fan Ah wept and said, "I should do my best."

"So, Liu Bei thanks the imperial physician." Liu Bei smiled.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking bluntly." Although Fan A is over a hundred years old, he has a good understanding of the world, and he is the heart of a doctor, unwilling to give up the last hope. At that time, Yuan Shao was alone, and the two generals of Guan and Zhang were missing, and his life and death were unknown. Did your majesty ever lose heart? Desperate? Why do you want to be trapped in grief and guilt, unable to extricate yourself, when you have a national foundation, millions of subjects, and hundreds of officials?

"Emperor Physician..." Liu Bei sighed: "There is a world of difference between the past and today. At that time, I just didn't know their whereabouts, but now, I clearly know that their heads are in different places, and their souls have gone to Jiuquan, and they will never wake up again. Let me just smile and say something. Their bravery, bravery, and ingenuity will all disappear forever in the world. What is more sad and desperate than this?"

Fan Ah stared at Liu Bei blankly.He knew that Liu Bei cherished talent and loved talent.But he never thought that Liu Bei would regard civil and military talents as important as his own life.The death of every civil servant and general is a painful blow to him.

"And this is all due to my wrong actions..."

"…His Majesty."

"It is I who prevented them from being the heroes of the founding of the country, and their names will go down in history." Liu Bei continued word by word: "And I also changed from Gao Zu to Gongsun Shu overnight. It is in this Baidi City." He said, He laughed hoarsely: "Ha, ha... What a coincidence, how ridiculous. It seems to be arranged by God."

"God bestows life expectancy on human beings. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and you are even more favored by God. How can you give up the hope of longevity?" Fan Aqi persuaded again.

"Physician, life and death are life and death, I am different from you." Liu Bei looked at the centenarian: "My ambition lies in the cleanliness of the rivers and seas, and the world is peaceful. With my arms, civil and military, the common people can enjoy the peace of singing and dancing. It lies in a long life and a lifetime of peace.”

Fan Ah stared blankly at the emperor.He thought that in ancient times, Renrui who was over a hundred years old, or Prince Qiao who became a fairy, Chisongzi, all focused on themselves, breathed out the grain, hid in the mountains and forests, wandered away from the world, restrained the seven emotions and six desires... Only in this way can they maintain their own essence. , prolong the life of a hundred years.

But what about Liu Bei?His emotions are as hot as fire, not to mention how deep he is with his brothers Guan Yu Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang, personal guard Chen Dao, Zhao Yun, etc., he also deeply loves this world of mortals, fathers and common people, and soldiers of the three armies.Love does not care about its own safety, but also takes people across the river.Hate is furious, and cuts off the water with a knife.Even the rain of arrows could not stop him from going forward bravely and taking the lead in the charge.

Since ancient times, how can anyone who cares about the country and the people live a long life?Ordinary people, if they think and worry so much, they are destined not to live long.What's more, those who have peerless talents and embrace the world will burn themselves like a torch and shine on the world.Until the body dies and the lamp goes out, the oil runs out and the lamp dries up.

If Liu Bei didn't put the world in his heart, he might as well live a long life like Fan Ah.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shed tears: "Your Majesty has high ambitions, and I can't look up to you..."

"Life is only seventy years old, and I am in old age." Liu Bei looked at the pale sky outside the window: "Old people have withered away, just like the torrential water. They will no longer be alive, running and jumping happily, to accompany me to do it all over again ..."

"No, Your Majesty!" Fan Ah suddenly said firmly, "There is still a prime minister! The prime minister is still young..."

"Ah...Kong Ming." Liu Bei thought of Zhuge Liang and smiled slightly.He once heard that Mr. Cao once used Guo Jia as the youngest among his confidants, and he planned to entrust him with future affairs.He thought at the time that his Kong Ming would be the same... When he was gray-haired and old, Kong Ming would still be in his prime, in full bloom...

God is so cruel, making it difficult for them to start a business and part ways in the middle.How merciful is God to give him the opportunity to entrust the whole country to Kong Ming.What he can't do, Kong Ming will do.He has already seen that his Kong Ming's wings have matured, even without him, he can lead [-] soldiers, drive Qishan for a long time, and shake the world.It's just that he never gave Wolong a chance to soar into the sky.

Perhaps, now is the time.

Fan A stared at Liu Bei, and unconsciously the needle bag in his hand slipped down his knees to the ground.He trembled to pick it up, but finally knelt down on the ground in despair, weeping uncontrollably.

"Prince doctor, from now on, help Kong Ming with me. Your responsibility is to take good care of him for me. This is my first entrustment."

Fan Ah was in tears, and kowtowed in agreement.

Make the wind move forward, make the rain sprinkle dust.Before dawn, there may be the darkest wind and rain.But that is exactly paving the way for the rising sun.Liu Bei smiled and looked out the window at the gradually dimming sky.He thought that he was about to perish at sunset, and the country of Han was also in turmoil.Fortunately, these are temporary.His prime minister possesses peerless talents and virtues, and the brightness of the sun and the moon will definitely help spread the light, illuminate all people, and bring peace to the world.The last thing he has to do is to push this shining star and moon into the vast sky.

13. Stargazing Pavilion

In the past, those who accompanied and accompanied the emperor, Wen was the servant, and Wu was the leader of the imperial army.Chen Dao felt that since Ma Liang passed away, the job of servant seemed to have fallen to Zhao Yun.Chen Daodai is still in military uniform, performing the duties of defending the emperor and commanding the Baiyu Yulin.But Zhao Yun, his brother Jing Nian, a general who was as brave and heroic as him, went in and out every day in civilian clothes.If you don't know him, you will think he is a scholar.

There was a period of war, Zhao Yun and Chen Dao were inseparable, guarding Liu Bei and his family.Liu Bei said with a smile that the two of them are similar in martial arts, even in stature and appearance, like twins.The character is firm and soft.Chen Dao is strong, straightforward, taciturn and honest.Zhao Yun is gentle and smooth, with far-reaching thoughts.

That evening in Yong'an Palace, Chen Dao saw Zhao Yun coming, the two looked at each other and smiled, and Chen Dao went back to the camp first.Zhao Yun entered Liu Bei's bedroom, but saw his two children, one big and one small, chatting and laughing with Liu Bei.Zhao Guang was about ten years old, when he saw Zhao Yun coming, he ran over and threw himself into his arms, and said with a smile, "Grandfather, Your Majesty said that he would go to the Star Observation Pavilion for a walk, we have been waiting for you for a long time."

Zhao Yun smiled at Liu Bei: "Your Majesty, the outside is more exposed..."

"It's already spring, and I'm not so weak yet. People on saddle horses will suffocate to death if they stay in the palace all year round." Liu Bei said.

Zhao Yun shook his head with a smile, took off his robe and hood to wrap Liu Bei tightly, and helped him to walk slowly towards the layman.Zhao Guang cheered, dragged his elder brother Zhao Tongdang to run ahead, and went straight to the Star Pavilion.Just as Zhao Yun yelled presumptuously, the two children had already run away, so why should he care about him.Liu Bei smiled and shook his head: "Don't be like this, Zilong. If you pay so much attention to royal etiquette, I will be suffocated to death. I just like to see children lively and happy."

Zhao Yun smiled and sighed, and supported Liu Bei to walk slowly.Fortunately, the star-gazing pavilion is not too far away, and we have arrived in a short while.But Zhao Tong and Zhao Guang were waiting at the foot of the mountain.It's just that the pavilion is built on a high place, and you have to climb a flight of stairs to go up.Zhao Yun was about to call the attendant to lift the seat, but Liu Bei shook his head: "I can climb up by myself. Why do I need that!"

Liu Bei was born in the army, and he has the arrogance and toughness of a soldier. He will not lose half of his points just because he becomes the emperor or falls ill. Seeing this, 15-year-old Zhao Tong came over to hold Liu Bei's other hand: "I will help His Majesty up with Grandpa."

Seeing this, Zhao Yun smiled and nodded.The father and son helped Liu Bei to go up slowly.Zhao Guang followed behind, only to hear his elder brother laughing and saying: "Your Majesty's hands are really long!"

"Presumptuous!" Zhao Yun scolded with a smile.Liu Bei also laughed, and sang a song after a while: "Don't you say that you have no clothes? You wear the same clothes as your son. Wang Yu Xingshi, repair my armored soldiers. Walk with you!"

This is the military song during the march.The soldiers sang to encourage each other, enhance mutual friendship and boost morale.It's not that he hasn't heard Liu Bei sing.It's just that at this moment, listening to a man who is about to die, he is still so heroic, he couldn't help but choked up, and he also sang: "Is there no clothes? I am in the same robe as my son. Wang Yuxing master, repair my spear. Enmity with the son!"

Zhao Tong was beside him, and he also sang loudly: "Is it said that there is no clothes? I have the same water with you. Wang Yuxing teacher, repair my spear and halberd. Work together with me!"

The four monarchs, ministers, father and son then walked up while singing songs.On the Star Observation Pavilion, Zhao Yun supported Liu Bei to sit down, and Liu Bei pulled him to sit beside him, looking at the night scene of Baidi in the distance.They all remembered that in the past few decades, they had been together like this countless times in the lonely city under the moon, talking about how to survive from adversity.Staring at the bonfire together in the military camp, gnawing on the hard dry food.Even, in the wilderness where bones can be seen everywhere, they looked at the miserable green will-o'-the-wisp and laughed together.

"Zilong," Liu Bei said after a while, "I have an unfeeling request. You and Shuzhi will part in the future, and probably won't see each other for years."

Zhao Yun and Chen Daoqing are like brothers, but they smiled heartily when they heard this: "Just like Your Majesty and General Guan?"

Liu Bei nodded: "Uncle Zhi made an agreement with me. After I leave, he will guard the Baidi City. You...follow Kong Ming's Northern Expedition."

Zhao Guang was beside him, and whispered, "Prime Minister... wants a Northern Expedition? Will Prime Minister know how to fight?"

"Why not." Zhao Yun smiled to his own child: "You were still young at the time. I have never seen the prime minister how to command the troops in battle and command the front of the battle. He even led the people to attack the city himself. This impregnable Baidi City was him back then. It was shot."

Zhao Guang opened his eyes wide in surprise: "The prime minister actually led his troops to attack the city!"

Zhao Yundao: "It's a troubled time, and there is no distinction between civil and military in the army.
