What about Mr. Faint?

The general rushed back from the border overnight, relying only on the fact that he had just repelled the enemy army, and the enemy army had to recuperate for a while.Later, I heard A Gu say that the general entrusted the matter to his adjutant, and he rushed back day and night, so he came in a hurry, and returned to the border after only a day's rest.

Only I was left silent to the imperial decree written by the general on the table, amnesty for the world.

"Your Majesty," the father-in-law came in with a tray, "You have been tired all day, it's time to rest."

The sun is shining brightly outside, and through the open paper window, you can see the swaying branches outside the window, as well as the bright sky: "Why did he come back?" It's just that I'm not in the mood to appreciate it. In front of me, all I need are my two seals, "What does he want me to do?"

In fact, I don’t expect an answer to this question, but my father-in-law seems to have misunderstood something: "If your majesty cares about it very much, you can keep the general by your side and you will find out after you have a try." He put the tea on the side of my hand, The words of respect seem to be really worried about my troubles, and want to share one or two for me.

But Ah Gu, who was following behind him, sneered, sat sideways on the table and looked down at his father-in-law: "If you still have a little IQ, you should know what will happen if you move the general." He looked at the father-in-law His eyes were cold, as if looking at a dead person, "Now is not the time to touch him."

It’s been a long time since I saw A Gu with such sharp eyes. I don’t know when A Gu became taciturn. He stopped talking to me about the interesting things he knew.For him, it seems that looking up at the starry sky above his head is more interesting than being with me: "A bone, what are you thinking about?"

From the corner of the eye, I saw my father-in-law looking up at me, but my father-in-law always knew what to do when he was lying on the ground without moving, as if he didn't hear A Gu's words and deeds against him: "I was thinking, do you still have any brains. "If such a rebellious word is said, it is estimated that only A Gu dares to say it.

But I... I'm really not angry at all: "You are my brain, what a bone~"

Ah Gu is more suitable to be an emperor than I am. He has a sense of responsibility that I do not have, and has a keenness and judgment that I do not have: "It would be great if Ah Gu is always here," smiling at Ah Gu, "Ah Gu will always be there right?"

He didn't answer, sat on the table and looked down at his father-in-law, then sighed: "Are you really going to pardon the world?"

"Amnesty to the world... reduce taxes, abolish penalties, release prisoners, and distribute food to the world." Among the brocade cloths written by the general are probably these few items, "Relief for retired soldiers, re-open the imperial examination, abolish the election of filial piety, and return Yes..." Looking at the father-in-law, "eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics."

The father-in-law knelt there and shivered, and then I saw his tearful face: "Your Majesty, this servant has always been loyal to you! The servant is really worried that your majesty is young and ignorant, and there is no elder to assist you. Only then, will Chao Yue want to help His Majesty."

Is he saying that he regards me as his child in his heart?Or are you saying that he is my elder?

But... it's just a rootless dog slave, who gave him the courage!

Sitting there, Ah Gu sneered, his dissatisfaction and sarcasm clearly written in his eyes.It's just his smile that made me calm down: "I know," the general's face, the queen mother's face, the father's back, and the little child lying on the wall before his eyes flashed past, " I know."

"Leave me alone." Ah Gu didn't move, but the father-in-law stood up slowly, bowed his waist and stepped back.

Ah Gu sat on the table and looked at me, leaned over a large table, raised his hand and pressed my head: "It's okay," his embrace was cold, but it was reassuring, "Everything will pass , when that time comes, let's go and see the said ink mountains and rivers, okay?"

When I was young, when my father still had feelings for my mother, when I was still a prince, I saw a picture scroll.It was the mountains and rivers depicted by the most famous monk who attained the Tao at that time. It was obviously only black and white, but there were high mountains and flowing waters, flying geese, bustling markets and deserted ancient cities. .

The long picture scroll depicts the various states of the world.And that picture scroll is hung in the palace of the queen mother, and the queen mother will observe it carefully every day, and then sit in front of the picture with my arms in my arms, pointing to a certain part of the picture scroll to tell a beautiful or sad story, one after another .

"Mountains and rivers of ink and wash..."

Later, the mother, queen and father were no longer in love, and I also left the gorgeous palace and went to the small courtyard.The long picture scroll was buried in the small courtyard by the queen mother on her deathbed...

I told each story to Ah Gu, and Ah Gu told me, over and over again, more than 300 times, spent more than 3000 days and nights, and then I waited for this seat and this colorful painting The mountains and rivers are coming...

A piece of ice cold.

"Forget it," got up and folded the brocade cloth written by the general, "The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the general doesn't know what I have done." Narrowing his eyes and smiling, he stuffed the brocade cloth into the bookshelf behind him.

Ah Gu sits on the table and looks at me, just like all the days in the past, like all the days in the future, he will always look at me.

There is a picture hanging on the wall of the study.It is rumored that it was the layout map used by King Tai Ozu to conquer the world. It is very old, and it has been refurbished many times in the past years.The general said that the picture was full of killing intent and fighting spirit, although at that time, in my opinion, there was only one desolate and dilapidated place.

But now...

"Ancestor Tai O was just a concubine who failed to become a king and was not valued. What did he go through to turn from a mediocre son to an emperor, and then to unify the nine kingdoms in just 20 years? What about it?" Ask A Gu, A Gu has no answer, ask the general, the general has no answer either.

In addition to the order of amnesty, the general also left a short list.

No, it's not so much a list, it's more like a letter of appointment, which describes who is promoted to what position.The general has touched my heart thoroughly. If the world is amnesty, it is necessary to introduce new people. If the imperial examination is not reopened, then it is necessary to use the people he mentioned as the pillars to rebuild the court.

Whether these people are the general's cronies or not, whether they are talented or capable, is no longer important.

Looking at the brocade cloth tucked into the corner, my heart is filled with the warmth of the general holding me.

'Your Majesty,' his chest is so warm, like a winter stove that is nostalgic, 'have you always been restless? '

His voice is very low, different from his father-in-law's sharpness and Taifu's slowness, his words are crisp and clear, and his words are concise and clear: "Those who want to harm you, those who want to mistreat you, tell the minister , I am willing to cut them off for His Majesty."

My father-in-law has said this too, he has said it many times, but look at what he has done...

'I said, 'The general's body is so warm, like a mother's embrace, reassuring,' the general only needs to wear a yellow robe, and everything will be solved. '

The general didn't agree to my words, he raised his hand to hold down my head, and buried my face completely in his embrace: "Maybe your majesty doesn't remember, I had a relationship with your majesty many years ago.At that time, the minister was just a commoner with no official position, and His Majesty was still a prince. '

I don't remember, such a humble and inconspicuous person, I didn't know how many times I had to see each day when I was still the prince.

Ah Gu shook his hand in front of me, and his thoughts gradually drifted away.When he turned his head to look at A Gu, he had already placed the brocade cloth in a more concealed position: "Don't regret it if you make up your mind." He sighed, as if trying to coax a wayward child, "Otherwise you can Not like you."

What is like me?

"Let the Taifu enter the palace." Looking at the swaying branches outside the window, "You like him very much, don't you?"

A Gu was silent for a second, followed my eyes to look out the window: "I used to like it very much, but when he was with those people and impeached you and me, he didn't like it anymore." This is A Gu, My A Gu, "In this world, there is nothing more important than you."

Looking at Ah Gu, he was a little more colorful than the flowers blooming outside the window: "Thank you."

"It's nothing." He hooked his lips and smiled lightly, with small dimples appearing on his face, "You are the meaning of my entire existence."

————————————————————————————————————————————————

*Elder-in-law's so-called putting it by his side to test it out also has the meaning of taking the general away from the battlefield and depriving him of authority.

*The consequence of A Gu's words is that without the support of the general, the little emperor can't be free and easy.After all, the general is now the one standing behind the little emperor and controlling the military power.A large part of the reason why the little emperor was able to live so free and easy was due to the authority of the general.

*The father-in-law is a bit square, so he was playing the emotional card trying to remind the little emperor of his goodness, but it was self-defeating.After all, in that era, the dignity and inferiority between people were still very obvious, and the little emperor actually had a lot of resistance and disgust towards eunuchs.

*The little emperor was actually shaken, he realized that the general was doing it for his own good, not trying to harm him.It's just that his bottom line is to sin against himself and amnesty the world, he will not treat the world well, that's not what he wants to do.

* After the little emperor returned to the throne, the Tai Tuo has become like an ambitious figure like Oboi. In fact, he has been trying to raise the little emperor in order to gain more rights. Ah Gu noticed this.So no matter how different the former Taifu was to the two of them, he has now become an enemy.
