Loyalty Hou Tiansheng rebellious

——When I was alive, I gave myself to the emperor.Now that I am dead, I just beg the emperor to return me to my purity.

Li Yan smiled instead of anger, and said to Xu Xing: "He has me in his heart, he likes me, he likes me to death."

I don't know whether to say this to himself or to Xu Xing.

"He went to the south of the Yangtze River to suppress the rebellion for me."

He put you down and came to Jiangnan.

"He still missed me before he died."

Missing not to see you.

"He didn't want me to take his things because he was afraid that I would look sad."

He would rather stay with Xu Xing than go back to Chang'an, he said he didn't want to fall into Li Yan's hands.

This was probably for Li Yan himself.

Li Yan raised his long sword and put it on Xu Xing's wrist: "I'll pick him up, if you stop him, his hand will be gone."

"My lord, you should understand." Xu Xing didn't move at all, "He may have his lord in his heart, but he definitely doesn't have Li Jishu."

"He doesn't have me in his heart?" Li Yan smiled, and with a movement of his wrist, the tip of the long sword lightly brushed against Xu Xing's wrist, "Then you are here? Xu Zhenmian, such a little bit of dirty thoughts can be hidden Can't live."

Not wanting to say any more, Li Yan glanced at Bandit Jian, and several people held Xu Xing down.

Being ill all the year round, Xu Xing couldn't break free, and he forgot all the respect and etiquette for a while, and just shouted: "Don't touch him."

"He's mine." Li Yan stepped forward, shook his sleeves, and picked up the jar wrapped in red cloth.

Li Yan walked out the door with the jar in his arms, the sunlight was shining on his body through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

He turned his head and ordered: "Send Xu Xing back to his fief, don't let him stay here."

Xu Xing lost his composure and called his name in the ancestral hall, asking him to return the things.

Li Yan felt annoyed, so he said: "If you are knocked unconscious, send it back directly and let people watch."

But he didn't go back to the boat, and he didn't want to go back to Chang'an right now, so Li Yan went back to the house where Chen Hen lived.

He backed away from the left and right, and put the urn on the case respectfully.

Sitting down on the couch, after taking the seat, covered it with his hand, coughed twice muffledly, and vomited out a mouthful of dirty blood that had been stuffed in his chest.

Because Chen Maomao had short legs and couldn't find his way, he fell behind.Then the door of the room was closed again, and he pushed it open with great effort, and slipped in quietly.

When he came in, he saw Li Yan vomit blood, and Chen Maomao was so frightened that he ran to him.

Perhaps it was because Chen Hen's remnant soul and the ashes that still remained in the world were mutually exclusive, Chen Hen appeared illusory in front of Li Yan.

But for a moment, he quickly returned to Chen Maomao.

If Li Yan hadn't stretched out his hand towards him, Chen Hen would almost have thought that it was his own hallucination.

The illusion flashed by, Li Yan raised his hand to pull him, the illusion disappeared before his fingertips touched Chen Hen's sleeve.

Not knowing whether it was true or not, he was in a daze for a while.

Chen Hen himself couldn't react in time, why did he suddenly appear in front of him?

Li Yan called him: "Liting."

Chen Maomao jumped onto the couch and hugged him.

I'm here.

After all, he can't stay for a long time, Chang'an still has a lot of political affairs waiting for Li Yan.

After staying at Zhuangzi in the south of the Yangtze River for three days, they set off for the north.

When he came, he held Chen Maomao, and when he returned, he held Chen Hen's ashes urn.

The boat pushed aside the spring water in March in the south of the Yangtze River. Li Yan sat by the window. When he left the shore, he heard the children on the shore singing nursery rhymes.

"... Su Yi crosses the river and the moon is bright, Su Yi folded has a lot of meaning."

"It's full of meaning, it's full of meaning, and looking north at Chang'an is full of meaning."

"Xingyun disperses to Xingqinghe, and Xingyun spreads slowly."

"It's too late, it's too late, it's too late to kowtow to the golden throne."

The children on the shore played a game, the game of "Qingpi has fallen".

The one who pretended to be the Marquis of Zhongyi was a young man in a blue shirt.

He straightened his back, knelt on the pier, and bowed to the northwest.

Looking north to Chang'an is full of meaning, but bowing down to the golden throne is delayed.

The child pretending to be He Xing grabbed his collar and lifted him up from the ground.

later--

Later, the two almost fell into the water, and were reprimanded by the family not far away, and the game broke up.

They ran away singing "Yi Zhong Zhong" and "Yi Lai Chi".

Chen Maomao was lying by the window watching, feeling that they were so stupid, they didn't look like them at all.

He sighed in his heart, and when he turned his head, Li Yan had already opened Chang'an's memorial and began to read it.

As if unaware.

Chen Maomao stretched out his paws to reach the window sash, almost falling into the water.

Li Yan quickly hugged him back and asked, "Do you want to learn from him too?"

No, I want to close the window for you so that you don't see or hear it.

Fearing that Chen Maomao would run around again, Li Yan closed the window for him.

Chen Maomao was sleeping next to him, lying on all fours, showing her soft belly, wanting to pet him and make him happy.

After maintaining this movement for a long time, Li Yan noticed him after a long time and rubbed his stomach.

As soon as he touched Chen Maomao, Chen Maomao stuck to him like brown sugar, put away his sharp claws, and patted his hand with the soft pad.

Even if I become a cat, I still want to make him happy.

Li Yan rubbed his head again and smiled at him.

Chen Maomao seemed to be happy too, lying on his lap, sticking out her tongue and touching his fingers for the first time in several years.

This day Li Yan didn't read the brochures, and didn't notice anything else. He played with Chen Maomao on the long couch all day long.

Chen Maomao seemed to be tireless. At night, after Li Yan washed up and took a rest after blowing on the lamp, he fell asleep in the little nest beside the bed.

Waking up in the middle of the night, Chen Hen felt something was wrong, he...

Chen Hen raised one hand to look at it by the moonlight, but it wasn't the cat's front feet.

He manifested again.

He turned his head, Li Yan's back was facing him, and he was already asleep.

I don't know when it will change back again, if Li Yan meets him, it will just make him miss him in vain.

Chen Hen got up quietly, ready to find a place to hide, and come out when he turned back into a cat.

Cats walk silently. In the past two years, he has learned nothing else, but he has learned how to walk cats very well.

He walked towards the door lightly, but before he took two steps, he heard Li Yan behind him——

As if crying.

Li Yan turned his back to him, but he turned back into a human being, he couldn't see things as clearly as a cat, and could only see Li Yan's back.

He hesitated for a moment, then turned at last, and tiptoed back.

Li Yan fell asleep, go and see him now, nothing should happen.

Chen Hen approached him slowly, reaching out to touch his face, to see if he was crying in his dream.

But as soon as he stretched out his hand, Li Yan seemed not to have fallen asleep at all, and quickly raised his hand to hold his fingertips.

"Liting."

Chen Hen was brought forward by him, and threw himself into his arms.

After just hugging for a moment, Li Yan hadn't seen the person clearly, and before he felt the temperature from his fingertips, the person disappeared.

Chen Hen turned into Chen Maomao again, fell to the ground, dared not bark, and pretended to be asleep under the cover of the night—in fact, anyone with a little common sense should know that cats don't sleep at night.

Li Yan got up and stayed on the bed, afraid of disturbing Chen Hen, he didn't even dare to light the candles, he just took advantage of the moonlight to look inside the cabin two or three times, then pushed open the door to go out, and looked on the board for a few times.

Can't find it.

Like a fairy, without a trace.

He stood on the deck of the boat, and the wind blew away, taking away the last bit of warmth that the man had left in his arms and fingertips just now.

So he simply stood on the board and blew the wind for a while, until Chen Maomao came out, rubbed his head against his legs, and urged him to go back.

Li Yan picked up the cat, and he blew the wind for a long time. To him, Chen Maomao was as warm as a hand stove.

Chen Maomao meowed at him, and threw herself into his arms as if she was never afraid of the cold.

When I returned to Chang'an, it was already the end of April and almost May.

The courtiers realized later that the news of Zhongyi Hou's death had already reached the emperor's ears.

The emperor said that he wanted to add more officials, and put the ashes of Zhongyihou in the palace for enshrining.

When he said this in the court, his expression was calm and there was no difference, and all the courtiers thought it was nothing serious.

In the next few months, the emperor dealt with political affairs as usual, and did not miss any of the things that should be done, and the solemnity he should have was not bad at all, and the courtiers were also relieved.

Until the mid-autumn palace banquet on August [-]th, several veteran officials in the court, taking advantage of the good atmosphere of the palace banquet, mentioned the time of choosing a concubine mentioned earlier.

Li Yan immediately turned pale, and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

In the face of several old officials, there was no court meeting on August [-]th, but several courtiers knelt in front of the Yangju Hall to petition.

At that time, Li Yan still remembered that Chen Hen wanted him to be a wise king, so he persuaded them with good words, but he didn't persuade them, saying that they would repeat the old tricks.

Repeated tricks.

Li Yan's thoughts sank, and he remembered what Eunuch Gao said before, that Chen Hen cut off his sleeve in front of them, so he drew his long sword backhand and cut off his own sleeve.

He tossed his sleeve to Eunuch Gao and told him to show it to the outsiders.

For a moment, the officials were in an uproar, kneeling and even more unwilling to leave.

In the end, it was Li Yan who sent the two of them to prison, and this matter was considered to have stopped for a while.

Later, I didn't know who was serving in the palace, and one thing was leaked out - the emperor would go to sit in front of the memorial tablet of the Marquis of Zhongyi every evening.

After that, gossip spread, saying that the emperor likes Hou Zhongyi, and now that Hou Zhongyi has gone, he wants to guard him for him.

Ridiculous, so ridiculous.

But no courtier can just watch the emperor do such absurd things.

Li Yan didn't know what the outside world said about him, so he quietly acted like the king Chen Hen wanted him to be.Except for this matter, other matters are easy to discuss with the courtiers, and they all say that he is gentle and wise.

One winter day this year, Chen Maomao was playing outside. After a lot of effort, he caught a koi from the frozen Mingjing Lake and wanted to show it to Li Yan to please him.

The koi is too fat, and it has just been fished out of the lake, so it is a bit cold.It took Chen Maomao a lot of effort to bring the koi back to the Yangju Hall.

He jumped in through the window—half of the windows in the Yangju Hall were open, and they were not closed in winter, they were reserved for him.

He bit the koi and landed on the ground. The hall was dimly lit. Li Yan was resting on the couch, rubbing the center of his brows with one hand, with two or three wine jugs poured beside him.

Before he could get close, the door of the palace opened.It was a little eunuch he didn't recognize, and a person he didn't recognize.

Eunuch Gao is getting old, it's winter, and he's sick, so he hasn't been by Li Yan's side for the past few days.And Bandit Jian went out to do errands, and was not by Li Yan's side.

The person who came in tilted his head, Chen Maomao glanced at it, and the koi he was biting fell to the ground.

What this man looks like—

There are five points similar to myself.
