Dreams in Paradise

There are not many people in Shangjincheng in the early morning, and many shops are not open yet.Liu Shui rode a tall horse, with a white jade mask covering most of his face, at the door of Furong Residence, he said to Xiao Er, who was rubbing his eyes, "A pack of Furong Cake."

Xiaoer just opened the door, still a little sleepy, and said in a daze, "Furongju doesn't sell breakfast."

Liu Shui said: "I don't want breakfast, I just want Furong Cake."

Xiaoer rubbed his eyes and was not calm, looking up to curse someone.

After seeing the person on the horse, well, isn't this Yumian Tanhualang? !Quickly crawling and running out from behind the counter, nodding and bowing, it was very lively, "You are dazzled and haven't woken up, Mr. Gao is fine, I will go to the kitchen to pack it for you and take it away."

Liu Shui smiled, "You're a genius, you know how to watch people order food. I'm a good-tempered person, so I neglected me. If you meet a young general from the Hong family, don't rub your eyes, don't fall asleep, go directly to Lie down on the street and let him cross the horse."

Xiaoer came out with two big packages of hibiscus cakes, and said with a smile: "It's not that the tall man understands the little one, long time no see, the tall man will come more."

Liu Shui picked up the hibiscus cake, rode a tall horse and walked slowly to Spring Breeze Ten Miles, went to a song and dance hall he often went to, and knocked on the door with his sword.

It was the time when the Song Lou Dance Hall was sleeping soundly, and the person who knocked on the door said impatiently: "It's just dawn, guest officer, how early! The girls are all asleep at this time!"

Liu Shui said outside the door: "I'll get a pot of wine and leave."

If this person was impatient just now, he immediately ran out with a stick, before he saw him, he saw his stick raised his head in harmony with his voice, and his voice was full of sternness, "It's time to find fault! See if the uncle doesn't interrupt your dog legs!"

"Tsk!" Liu Shui shook his head, "I'm just a good citizen who doesn't come here to buy a jug of wine. It's really not worthwhile for you to get angry so early in the morning."

The man raised his head and opened his mouth to swear, he raised his stick to hit his head, but he lifted his head and the stick together, and instantly turned his back, saying: "Haha, haha, it's Mr. Gao, why did you come here at this time, old man? The wine hasn't woken up yet! Tsk! I'll call it to you!"

They ran away without a trace.

The flowing water shakes the hibiscus cake in his hand, watching and enjoying himself.

The man brought two jars of wine to hang on the saddle for him, and said: "You have to come at another time, the girls are looking forward to you! A few days ago, I was thinking about asking you to compose a new song. We haven't had a good song for a long time. La! The Baiyun short song is playing every day, waiting for you, my lord!"

Liu Shui said: "Okay, just wait! Maybe someday it will come again."

The man said: "Then wait for you, my lord!"

Liu Shui walked a few steps, turned around, "I also brought the eldest son of the prime minister's family to compose a song for you, how about it?"

The man's legs softened immediately, "My lord, please spare the little ones!"

Liu Shui laughed and rode slowly towards the palace, shopping along the way.The old flower seller came early, the flowers were still covered with dew, but there were not many people on the street. Seeing the flowing water riding over, she said, "This handsome gentleman bought some flowers and put them in a vase for your wife?"

Liu Shui said in his heart, when the flower falls and sees this flower, he is afraid that it will become a dried flower, so he immediately shook his head.

Seeing that he was not too old, the old lady just shook her head and said nothing, guessing that he might not be married yet, she said: "If you are not married, Xiao Lang, you can send flowers to someone you like."

Flowing water still shook his head.

The old woman sighed, and said: "You are such a handsome man that you don't even have a man you like. The old woman can see that there are many good girls, who are more beautiful than this flower! Do you want your mother-in-law to be your matchmaker?"

Flowing water shook his head.

"Ouch!" The old woman seemed to have suddenly realized it, and put a brightly blooming red flower into his waist, and said, "Don't be sad, Xiaolang, there are still girls who are willing to show you how pretty you are." Follow you, it’s okay if you don’t talk, ah! Mother-in-law will send you a flower to find a lover.”

ha!Liu Shui wanted to laugh out loud, but the old lady was so kind, she couldn't bear to repay her kindness, got off her horse, and bowed to her.

The boss who sells buns on the side has been listening to the old woman talking to herself, wrapped the buns for others, collected the money, finally got some free time after busy work, looked up at the "dumb" who was turning over on the horse, and wrapped the buns immediately. The steamed stuffed bun stuffed it over, and said: "Master Gao eat some steamed buns before drinking, don't hurt yourself."

The old woman was still watching and sighing, Liu Shui had no choice but to thank the boss with fists, patted the horse, and walked away quickly.

The old woman said to the boss: "He is tall and big, and he is so handsome, but unfortunately he can't talk. Little Wu, you feel sorry for him too. I saw you gave him buns."

The boss said: "Your old man's eyesight is getting more and more blurred. This is that Mr. Gao! Why can't you recognize him? The mask was awarded by the emperor himself. He is the only one who has a jade face!"

The old woman called out, "I thought it was a handsome face that was whiter than dough! It's so presbyopic that I don't even recognize my benefactor. The old woman should read more sutras for him when she goes back! Poor him!" My old lady’s eyes were dazzled, she didn’t even say a word!”

The boss said: "Don't be upset, old man. Didn't you even give him a trick? It might be a good luck! Just take it easy."

Flowing water walked all the way, and soon it was full of hangers, and slowly arrived at the gate of the palace, without dismounting, not calling, and not being picked up, and walked towards the emperor's study.

The maids bowed their heads and smiled when they saw him, and the servants trotted all the way to report to him, and a little bustle arose in the palace.

The emperor had just come to court early, his face was ashen, and he was admonishing others in the study.

Liu Shui asked the servant to lead the horse, and stood at the door of the study with his arms full of miscellaneous things to listen to his lecture.

A twelve or thirteen-year-old waiter took the things over with a large square plate, Liu Shui finally freed his hand, picked out the buns and ate one, then fed the little waiter again.

After eating two steamed buns, there was no sound in the study, the little waiter took the tray from his hand, and pouted into the house.The servant announced: "Your Majesty, Mr. Gao is here."

Hearing the sound of holding back his anger and shouting to go in, Liu Shui hugged the miscellaneous things in his arms and said happily: "See the emperor."

Seeing that he was wearing a mask today, the emperor could guess where the mess came from.With a slightly calm face, he turned away from the adult who was listening to the training, and said: "Why don't you come back after sleeping."

Liu Shui said: "Wake up and come back at night, no one else can see, how boring."

The emperor said: "It's interesting for you to swagger like this. Within half a day, the news that Yumian Tanhualang has returned to Shangjin City will spread. You go out and wait to be surrounded by people to see the tricks."

Liu Shui put a bunch of things on the small table, uncovered the jade face, and said, "Isn't it easy for me? I don't have to report one by one, and I don't have to inquire one by one. Save some money and drink, everyone is good."

Open a pack of hibiscus cake, "Come and eat some, I just made it this morning, it's still hot!"

The emperor was rummaging through the mess, and opened his mouth.The running water was stuffed for him, and some hot tea was poured for him, and he went to the couch behind the screen and closed his eyes.

The emperor fell to the ground and said, "Why is there no bamboo horse this time?"

Liu Shui said in a daze, "The bamboo horse seller hasn't woken up yet, I didn't see it."

The emperor said: "Why do you still have two handkerchiefs, which girl secretly stuffed them for you!"

Liu Shui was about to enter Huang Liang's dream to enjoy it, so he only grunted.

The emperor didn't hear the sound, and came in and saw that everyone was asleep, holding a bright red flower in his hand.After twitching, he didn't pull it, and directly covered him with the quilt.

Seeing the black circles around his eyes, the emperor sighed softly, lying on the small table and staring at him in a daze.

·

The running water in Huangliang's dream smelled the aroma of rice, and when he opened his eyes, the meal was already set.People depend on food, so they don't need people to shout, so they get up and sit down consciously.

The servant was delivering vegetables to the emperor. Seeing him coming, he wanted to serve him again. He waved his hand and said, "I'll just eat whatever I want."

The emperor backed away from the left and right sides, "Go down, there is no need for people to serve you here."

Liu Shui laughed, "I serve the emperor's meal?"

The emperor said: "You talk to me."

Liu Shui nodded, swallowed the food in his mouth, and said, "The Emperor's Tai Tuo will lend me a loan."

The emperor said: "Xie Wuding has not been invited, and the Taifu is still vacant."

Liu Shui said: "The emperor invited you twice?"

The emperor nodded, "Perhaps the position of Taifu is too young."

Seeing him mourning, Liu Shui smiled, and said: "The emperor takes his ministers with him, please invite him again."

The emperor looked at him, as if a bean fire had been lit in the abyss-like darkness, with indescribable sadness and slightly beating hopes.

Liu Shui said in a deep voice: "Awu, I'll go with you, let's invite him out of the mountain together, and make this world for you."

Liu Shui made up his mind to retreat with Hua Luo to the world, and it was difficult for him to get away from the turmoil in the world.This time the prime minister made great efforts to force him to Shangjincheng, and he didn't let him rest in peace.The fox sleeping soundly next to the emperor's couch must have completely broken his waist this time, and settled the turmoil that has been raging for more than 20 years.Xie Wuding, a talent of the world, must be invited, and he can be invited.He was just biding his time.The Xie family has been a powerful family for many years, and it has stood in the court for many years, and it has its own aspirations and hopes in its eyes.Unrecognized talents cannot be their destination.

The emperor's eyes brightened a little, and he said slowly: "Okay."

It took him so much effort not to be able to say a single word, and even listening to the flowing water felt heavy and uncomfortable.An emperor in such a situation, how can he not be sad.

He has no merit, a young man kills his elder brother and takes the position, and there is a well-known General Hong's mansion at the border. He has never recognized this yellow-mouthed boy, and beside him is the prime minister who has disturbed the court for more than 20 years. More than half of the important positions in the court They were all controlled by him, except that they did not coerce the emperor to order the princes.Since the Taiwei Mansion was seized by Emperor Zhao five years ago, there has been no Taiwei post since then.Emperor Zhao withdrew part of his military power, and the remaining military power was scattered in many places to prevent people from going against the grain.By the time the current emperor came to power, those military powers had been dispersed and dispersed many times, and it was quite laborious to gather them together.

The family of the Xie family held a pivotal position in the court, but the Xie family has always been aristocrats of the family, and they look down on many things and dismiss them. The fact that the Taiwei Mansion was wiped out for no reason made them feel cold. The fact that the current emperor united with the prime minister also made them quite critical.As Xie Wuding kept his filial piety for three years, the Xie clan became even more cold-eyed.

Liu Shui sighed in his heart, for a majestic emperor, there are only a handful of people in his hands.
