Cai Xuning finally found a time to meet Zhang Huaide.

Compared with the past, his expression and face are much more vicissitudes. Compared with the wantonness of the past, those sharp edges and corners seem to have been erased now, and he looks old.

He looked at Cai Xuning with disgust and fear.

This kind of look, every time Cai Xuning stepped into the prison, he would see it from the eyes of different people.

"You said you wanted to see me, but something happened?"

Cai Xuning went straight to the point and didn't intend to babble.

Zhang Huaide was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "After I joined the Bronze Horse Army, I was rescued by a man. He asked me to convey a word to you, don't die too early."

Cai Xuning first raised his eyebrows, then smiled.

"Bronze Horse Army? Convey?"

He shook his head.

"No, your character is selfish and afraid of death, and you don't have the courage to take risks just to repay your life-saving grace. Could it be that you overheard someone's words, and when you were arrested, you were so embarrassed that you wanted to talk to me , Do you want me to spare your life?"

Zhang Huaide's face was a little ugly.

Cai Xuning said unhurriedly: "If you don't plan to tell, then it doesn't matter. But if you don't tell, I can find out slowly. It's just that your life will be buried here."

Zhang Huaide's face turned pale for a moment, and he was silent for a while.

"I'm..."

...

Jianwu ten years.

In the past few years, Liu Xiu had clashed with the noble gentry many times over the issue of land and population. In order to grasp the situation in time, he dealt harshly and directly executed more than a dozen officials who made trouble. Even the powerful and powerful families became dissatisfied with the court. .

Most of the officials in the DPRK and China are from noble gentry backgrounds, and they are quite critical of this.

However, standing beside Liu Xiu at the moment were several high-ranking officials headed by Cai Xuning, some of them were wealthy gentry, but they could look at the overall situation and fully support His Majesty's decision.

In the 11th year of Jianwu, Liu Xiu successfully got the result he wanted.

The rising gentry were forcibly suppressed.

"There are countless changes in the world. Now the gentry has the upper hand. How can you know that hundreds of years later, they will be the peasants who look down on them and sit in the school with them?"

Cai Xuning held a thin piece of white paper between his fingertips.

"The stronger the barriers of knowledge, the more powerful families can consolidate their position and imprison the talents of stupid peasants. The easier the way to obtain knowledge, the more knowledge can sink everywhere. You can raise the threshold and smash It's not easy, but can you stop manpower and time?

"The changes in the world are beyond human power."

When Cai Xuning said this, thanks to the fact that he was surrounded by only a few people who knew him well, after hearing what he said, some argued with him, and some even got angry.

If it gets out, I'm afraid it will be covered with sacks.

"Why are you saying these things for nothing?" Deng Yu smiled wryly and shook his head.

He could be regarded as relatively calm, but he also held a neutral opinion towards Cai Xuning's words.

Cai Xuning said with a smile: "A great man once told me that if something is difficult to do, such as opening a window, but the people in the house will not allow it. But at this time, if you insist on opening the roof, most people will agree to open it." The window is closed. I agree with the words of this great man."

After he finished speaking, he bowed slightly and walked away.

...

"I heard that today's banquet, did you quarrel with Deng Yu and the others?"

After entering the palace, warmth rushed over.

Cai Xuning changed into a dry and cold cloak with a smile, and entered the hall.

The main hall is covered with thick dark yellow blankets, which are a bit soft when stepped on. The tables and chairs in the hall that used to be sharp-edged have been replaced by rounded arcs at some point, and some of the furnishings look cute and childlike.

Liu Xiu knelt on the seat, with a pile of blankets beside her.

Leaning at his feet, a little man is sleeping under the blanket.

Cai Xuning said: "That's not true, it's just a small debate."

He walked to the side, looked at the child who was soundly asleep, and said with a smile, "How can I sleep like this? I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight." The child was already full of energy, but at this moment he fell asleep , then tonight is really going to be a riot.

Liu Xiudao: "That's not necessarily the case. He played crazy with that kid Li Yin in the afternoon, and he may have exhausted his energy."

Li Yin is the eldest son of Liu Boji.

Cai Xuning sat down, Liu Hong seemed to be startled by their voices, his hunched body was moving, and he raised his head to take a look, his delicate face was covered with red marks from sleep.

Liu Hong found out that it was Aye, so he walked over happily, leaning his little head on Cai Xuning's lap, and said in a small voice, "Sleepy..."

Seeing him sleeping like this, Cai Xuning simply let him go.

Palms patted his back lightly.

"How is your health recently?"

Liu Xiu said what he already knew, and Cai Xuning repeated the answers he was used to.

"no problem."

Cai Xuning said with a smile: "Recently there are few frontier defenses, and the interior is considered safe. Why are you still frowning, but who made you angry?"

"Whoever gets angry with me, can I kill it?"

Liu Xiu raised her hand and rubbed between her eyebrows.

"That's impossible." Cai Xuning raised his eyebrows.

Liu Xiu shook her head and said lightly: "Among the ratings sent this year, there is an official named Dong Xuan."

The name sounds a little familiar.

Cai Xuning thought for a while before he remembered: "That upright Prime Minister Bei Hai who has collided with the governor many times?"

Liu Xiudao: "Say he is corrupt and accepts bribes."

"joke."

Cai Xuning laughed lightly, shook his head and said.

"If that stubborn temper can really embezzle, those who are killed by him will probably laugh out loud in the ground."

This old boy once acted cleanly and viciously because the officials under him killed innocent people. If there was any corruption and bribery, it would have been revealed early in the meeting. Did you come to do such a thing after you were demoted?

"Maybe it's because my family is poor that I changed my mind."

Liu Xiu said casually.

Cai Xuning pursed her lips: "If so, why were you angry just now?"

Liu Xiu didn't believe it either.

If you don't believe it, you will be angry for such a reason.

"At the beginning, it was because his character was too ruthless, and I wanted him to be suppressed again. It was also to make him avoid the limelight, so he was demoted to the county magistrate. Now I feel that I have forgotten, so I can do whatever I want?

"joke."

After Liu Xiu finished speaking calmly, she pressed the document in her hand on the table and turned to look at Cai Xuning.

"I heard that the last one is already showing signs?"

Cai Xuning frowned and smiled lightly.

Axiu's usual "hearing" is very interesting.

Cai Xuning said: "Axiu has already met that person, hasn't she?"

The two traversers found before are all ordinary people.

One was in Nanyang and the other was in Chang'an. Basically, when they lost the idea of ​​competing with Liu Xiu, they were already doomed to die.

Only the last one left.

Although Cai Xuning regularly uses location once a month, the traveling distance of this man is never close to Luoyang.And since Cai Xuning's physical condition was completely exposed in front of Liu Xiu, there was no possibility of going out of Beijing alone.

Every time there were matters that could be assigned to him out of Beijing, they were either given to someone else, or they were still given to someone else.

It has nothing to do with Cai Xuning.

Cai Xuning: "..."

"I haven't reached this point either."

He was a little helpless.Even though he did discover the connection, after all, he hadn't reached the place where he couldn't live without Liu Xiu.

Axiu is very frank.

He frankly said that he was sad about his physical safety, but he was also happy about the close dependence.

Inseparable, inseparable.

Cai Xuning laughed at him that it was an unacceptable mentality of monopoly.

Liu Hong woke up again while they were talking, and he crawled to Cai Xuning's lap and sat down, his small arms and legs facing each other tightly hugged his clothes, and the cuffs were all crumpled.

Struggle to stuff her little self into Aye's arms.

Cai Xuning said with a smile, "Are you woken up by us?"

Liu Hong yawned a little, and said in a daze, "Hong'er had a bad dream."

Cai Xuning gently hugged his back, and asked: "Then what bad dream did Hong'er have?"

Liu Hong said softly, "Aye is gone."

Cai Xuning laughed lightly, shook his head and said, "You are here." He pointed to Liu Xiu who was sitting next to him.

Liu Hong's small head was buried in Cai Xuning's clothes and he shook his head desperately.

Xiao Xiao complained in a low voice: "It's this Aye."

Liu Xiu casually reprimanded: "Which Aye can explain clearly, how can there be this Aye, that Aye's statement?"

Liu Hong poked his head out and said super loudly: "It's Cai Aye, Liu Aye is really annoying."

Cai Xuning said quietly: "This sounds too strange."

If it wasn't for being unable to swear in front of the child, he really wanted to complain.

【Studio】

[ID round-faced friend: old couple——]

[ID Fenglin Volcano: Children are so cute]

[ID Little Ancestor: Unknowingly saw me graduate from my university]

[ID procedure: already a social animal person]

[ID Big Rabbit Ji: It doesn’t matter if you don’t watch the live broadcast now, but I’m used to it]

[ID Nian Beast is really not cute: indeed, it’s already a habit I can’t quit]

[ID Qingdeng: I don’t know how many survival points the anchor has saved now]

[ID Ponytail: I'm curious too]

[ID Youyu: Hahaha I want to see it too]

Cai Xuning hadn't paid attention to survival points for a long time, but since the audience in the live broadcast room mentioned it, he stopped by to take a look.

One, ten, one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand...

He roughly counted a few zeros, then was silent for a while.

If those points represent how much money he has, he's a billionaire.

After a few days, spring came.

The warm wind melted the snow, and in the first few days, it was still a season of low temperature.

Cai Xuning fell ill.

In these years, Cai Xuning has almost never been sick, except for occasional injuries and typhoid fever, he is basically free from illness.Most of the medicines I have taken these years are just for peace of mind, and how much effect they can actually exert is still a matter of opinion.

It was the same this time when I fell ill.

The imperial physician in the palace went through them one by one, and only said that Cai Xuning was in good health, free from disease and disaster, and such a situation should not have happened.

The blood bar that Liu Xiu saw was not like this.

Yes.

When the eternal knot works, in other words, how can the most intuitive thing compare to the blood bar of the system?

Although Liu Xiu could only see the health status of Cai Xuning alone, that was enough.

is full.

The imperial physician was right, Cai Xuning's body should not be so weak in terms of pulse and appearance.But in less than three days, he was so ill that he couldn't even get out of bed.

Liu Xiu sat on the edge of the bed with an ugly expression on her face.

Just now Liu Hong fell asleep beside Cai Xuning, and he was asking the palace servant to carry the little prince down.

Cai Xuning half leaned against the head of the bed, his handsome face was a little pale.

"Don't frown, if you continue to frown, you will become an old man."

Liu Xiu said with a serious face: "I have ordered the princes to enter the court."

Cai Xuning was slightly stunned, his face was even uglier than Liu Xiu's.

"Axiu, are you crazy? Letting them enter the court at this moment will only make them panic!"

"But this is the only way that can make that person enter the court unsuspecting, isn't it?" Liu Xiu's tone was very flat, as if what he was saying was just some ordinary words.

Cai Xuning: "...No one can guarantee that my current situation is related to this last person." He seemed to be a little scrupulous, but Liu Xiu didn't care.

Liu Xiu glanced at the blood bar on Cai Xuning's head, which was as calm as stagnant water and still full.

The voice fell.

"When does Ah Xu want me to wait? Until you are dying, until your soul is gone?!"
