you poked my tail

Baicheng felt a little turmoil in his heart, and he couldn't help being a little surprised. The extremely conceited Chu Duo also had a day to ask for help. In fact, when you think about it carefully, everyone is afraid of death. People, this pleading is nothing more than wanting to be.

Even though his thoughts were turned upside down in his heart, he didn't show it at all on his face. Baicheng just looked at him indifferently and didn't answer.

Unable to wait for a reply, Chu Duo closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, the desolation in his eyes was even worse. He smiled softly and said, "Just pretend I didn't say anything." He took a deep breath and suppressed the feeling in his heart. Painful, pretending to be unrestrained, "I have no choice but to resign myself to fate."

That night, Chu Duo was almost sleepless, and he fell asleep slowly when the sky was a little brighter, but his sleep was extremely restless.

He doesn't want to die, he really doesn't want to die, but now God makes him like this, even if he is the emperor, so what?

He doesn't have the ability to fight against the sky, he can't even deal with a fox in front of him, let alone the high heaven.

Chu Duo was awakened by the dream, and he was sweating all over when he woke up, but he felt much more comfortable.He ordered someone to prepare hot water, took a shower, and then sat on the couch to read the book.

During this period of time, most of the papers were handed over to the Secretary of the General Administration and the cabinet ministers, unless it was something very important and uncertain to report to him for him to make a decision.

This matter was also ordered by the Queen Mother. At first Chu Duo was a little worried, and he struggled with his illness for a few days, but his illness worsened.Speaking of the strangeness of his illness, it was just that he went out hunting in spring and caught the wind and cold, and he couldn't get sick when he came back.The imperial doctors said that it was because he was too tired, Chu Duo felt a little ridiculous, he was ridiculous, young, but a little tired, but he fell ill.

But Baicheng told him that it was his destiny not to be an emperor, but if he insisted on doing it, then God would definitely punish him.This remark made him extremely displeased, but when he calmed down and thought about it carefully, perhaps, it was so.

But is he, Chu Duo, the one who is willing to admit defeat?Today is such a situation, even if he dies, he will die in that high position!Moreover, he does not believe in fate!Especially when he came to this position by himself, he doesn't believe in the destiny.

After reading the memorial, some Chu Duo seemed dissatisfied, so he ordered several ministers to be called.

"This is the memorial that you reviewed?" Chu Duo said with a stern tone, "What should be taken seriously is turned a blind eye, and trivial matters that should not be taken seriously are read as a book! Do you really think that I am going to die? Huh?"

Several ministers knelt down and dared not speak out.

Chu Duo said angrily again, "Is it important to build the imperial mausoleum? Hmm? The death of the emperor is nothing more than a handful of soil. You spent so much manpower, material and financial resources to build the palace like a tomb. You really think of it as the dead emperor." will they live?"

Chu Duo then said angrily, "Don't care about the riots at the border, don't care about diplomacy, and don't care whether the common people have good food and drink, whether those corrupt officials have been punished as they should, but are concerned about things like building tombs; Why, are you thinking that even mine has been repaired? Huh?"

After listening, several ministers knelt there and shook their heads again and again, denying them together, "I don't have it, I dare not, the emperor is clearly aware."

Chu Duo snorted coldly, "Don't you dare? Why don't you dare? Since I ascended the throne, you have called me the emperor, but secretly you are saying that I obtained the throne by means?"

"I don't have it, I don't have it..." Several ministers hurriedly denied it, shaking their heads again and again.

"Enough!" Chu Duo said impatiently, "Do you know what yourselves know?" Taking a deep breath, he said, "I will put the matter of repairing the imperial tomb at the end. Jiangshan Sheji cannot be repaired by repairing the imperial tomb. , but relying on loving the people and protecting the people, water can carry a boat and overturn it, I don’t need to tell you more about this, do I?”

No one dared to say a word, and everyone bowed their heads.

Chu Duo stabilized his emotions a little bit, and said in a slightly relaxed tone, "Let's all go down."

Several ministers bowed their heads in salute, then retreated tremblingly.

The personal eunuch bent forward and handed a cup of hot tea, and then whispered to comfort the emperor not to be angry.

Chu Duo glanced at him indifferently, without making a sound, he just took the teacup and drank tea slowly.

In the evening, the Empress Dowager brought Concubine Li to serve Chu Duo for dinner.

Chu Duo was very unhappy, but he didn't want to upset his mother, so he abruptly let the concubine Li, who was covered in rouge and powder, accompany her to eat with her.

Concubine Li has heard a lot about the emperor's cruelty and indifference, and she herself has suffered from it. After all, since entering the palace, the emperor has been to her three times. I dare not come alone.

"The concubine looked at the emperor's complexion much better than the previous few days. I think she must be recovering soon." At the end of the meal, Concubine Li looked at Chu Duo and said softly.

Chu Duo raised his eyes slightly to look at her, his eyes were calm, and his tone was also light, "Really? Could it be that you can see a doctor, Concubine Li?"

This sentence frightened Li Fei almost to drop the chopsticks on the ground, she lowered her head, not daring to say another word.

Seeing her like this, Chu Duo laughed inexplicably, picked up a piece of meat for her with chopsticks, changed his tone, and said, "Eat more meat, women look better when they are fatter."

Concubine Li was flattered by this sudden change but also terrified, she replied respectfully, "Thank you, the emperor for giving me the meat." After finishing speaking, she carefully picked up the piece of meat and put it in her mouth, and began to chew slowly.

"Concubine Li, I want to ask you something." Chu Duo spoke again.

"Your majesty, as long as the concubines know, they will never hide anything."

"I have twelve concubines and a few beauties. Tell me, if I let you all go home, what do you think?"

As soon as this remark was made, Concubine Li hadn't reacted yet, but the Empress Dowager spoke up and scolded in a cold voice, "Your Majesty! Are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about?"

Chu Duo looked at his mother, touched his nose, and smiled faintly, "Mother, the child is sick and cannot drink, have you forgotten?"

"Then you are too tired!" The queen mother put down her chopsticks, stood up, and said, "Okay, since the emperor is tired, we can't bother you anymore, Concubine Li, you should not serve the emperor even if he is sick." , then go with Ai’s family.”

Concubine Li put down her chopsticks, stood up, saluted politely, and followed the queen mother.

In the dead of night, Chu Duo sent all the servants including the personal eunuchs away, and he sat alone on the bed in the palace, thinking about things.

From yesterday to today, Baicheng didn't show up, and Chu Duo didn't bother to call him, anyway, he knew he was here.

He got up and poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, felt that it was boring, and really wanted to find a jug of wine to drink.

At this time, Baicheng suddenly appeared with a jug of wine in his hand. He raised his head and took a sip, then threw the jug to Chu Duo.

"This wine is brewed with the essence of a thousand-year-old flower. Every drop is more precious than any wine in this world, and it can cure all diseases. It depends on your luck." His tone was cool, and his eyes were clear. Cool and cold.

Chu Duo widened his eyes, then smiled, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Fox Immortal, for your rescue."

Bai Cheng smiled lightly, and said, "It's too early to thank you, after all, you are a mortal body, you might drink to death, don't blame me then."

Hearing this, Chu Duo took a deep breath, looked at the flagon in his hand, and smelled the fragrant wine, then raised his head and took a few sips, and couldn't help admiring, "Good wine." When he was resting, his eyes rolled over and he couldn't get up.

Bai Cheng frowned, his face collapsed immediately, and he couldn't help cursing, "You bloody idiot! I'll be drunk for years after drinking a single drop of this wine, how many sips do you take!"

Bai Cheng looked at the drunk and unconscious Chu Duo in front of him, frowned, took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, bent down to lift him up, and went to the bed.

-

On the way to Kyoto, Bai Ruan heard the little tit tell that Kyoto is prosperous and rich, and there are many interesting and delicious things, so he was moved, and within a long time, he yelled at Chu Heng to go to Kyoto quickly.

Chu Heng naturally agreed, and took him to the capital at high speed.

I arrived in Kyoto in about ten days. When I got there, the first thing I did was to eat, drink and play. For a whole day, Bai Ruan walked from the north gate to the south gate, from the south gate to the east gate, and finally to the west gate.

The warm sun was falling in the west, and the twilight was misty, reflecting the sacredness and grandeur of this imperial city.

Bai Cheng and Little Chickadee stood on the top of the hill looking at the city, he couldn't help but marvel, "Ah Heng, compared to the Heavenly Palace in the Nine Heavens, this place is not that far behind."

Although Bai Ruan had been to the Heavenly Court once, he hadn't seen the Heavenly Palace, so he had to ask, "Where is the Heavenly Palace?"

"That's the palace where Tianjun lives, and it's the same." Bai Ruan's voice was soft, "Anyway, it's good, Ah Ruan won't say it, but it's good to know that only the supreme gods live there."

After hearing this, Chu Heng understood, smiled, and put his arms around his little elf. It turns out that gods have classes just like humans.

Bai Ruan's eyes were round, looking at Chu Heng, he couldn't help sighing, and said, "If that bad emperor hadn't robbed Ah Heng of your throne, this big place would be your home right now."

In his perception, the imperial city is the emperor's home.

Chu Heng smiled softly, the word "home" is too beautiful, it doesn't seem to be suitable for a place like the palace.

He kissed Bai Ruan and said, "If I say that I don't want to be the emperor, do you think Ah Heng is worthless?"

Bai Ruan was stunned, then shook his head, "Why, Ah Heng just needs to be Ah Ruan's wife, hehe."

He dragged his chubby face, shook his feet, stroked the feathers of the little tit, sat in Chu Heng's arms and continued to look at the city of the imperial palace.

After a while, a sentence came suddenly, "A person as good as Ah Heng should live in a place like Tiangong."

Chu Heng looked at him and said, "Wherever you are, any place is fine."

This made Bai Ruan smile, and the next moment his face collapsed, and he groaned, "You can only deceive Ah Que with your words, but you can't fool Ah Ruan."

Chu Heng frowned, slightly puzzled.

Then Bai Ruan said again, "Ah Ruan has seen countless men, you want to lie to my old lady? Pooh! Hurry up and go and lie to those silly little girls!"

Chu Heng, "..." It seems that today I was lying on the wall to watch other people quarreling, and I didn't distinguish between good and bad.
