In the courtyard outside the study, the bright moon hangs high.
A gentle breeze blew by, and from the corners of the courtyard, a few insects chirped occasionally.
In the study, the candlelight flickered on the desk, and the candlelight was dim.
Under the illumination of candlelight, wisps of light smoke were rising in the light from the sandalwood burner on the table.
In the huge study room, except for the even breathing of Young Master Liu and his wife, the crackling of candlelight, and the rustling of Young Master Liu flipping through files, there was no sound at all.
It's so quiet that you can hear a pin drop.
Qi Yun glanced at the porridge bowl on the tray that had lost a trace of heat, and raised her eyes slightly to glance at her husband opposite the desk.
Seeing the expression on her husband's face that never calmed down, Qi Yun's beautiful eyes pursed her lips with worry, and she slowly stood up from the chair.
Qi Yun walked to the side of Young Master Liu with light steps and glanced sideways at the candlestick next to her.
Seeing the red candle on the candlestick that was about to burn out, Qi Yuntan opened her mouth slightly and said softly: "Husband, the red candle on the candlestick is about to burn out. It's time to replace it with a new candle."
After hearing Qi Yun's reminder, Young Master Liu stopped turning the page and raised his eyes to scan the candlelight on the table.
"Ouch, why is it burning out so quickly?"
Young Master Liu sighed to himself when he saw the red candle on the candlestick that had almost bottomed out.
"Husband, I will change the candles immediately. You should also take a rest."
Young Master Liu stretched out while holding the file in his hand, and looked up at Qi Yun who was standing in front of him.
"Huh, Yun'er, what time is it now?"
"Before, I could faintly hear the sound of the night watch coming from the front yard, but it's already late."
Young Master Liu's face was stunned, and he subconsciously looked out the window: "What, is it already the time to be ugly?"
Seeing the surprised look on her husband's face, Qi Yun smiled wryly and nodded her head a few times.
"Yes, it's time to be ugly.
Moreover, some time has passed since the wake-up call. I estimate that even the ugly hour has passed about half way. "
Young Master Liu withdrew his gaze, placed the file in his hand on the desk, stood up and walked out of the desk, and moved his body vigorously a few times.
"Time flies so fast, my husband thought it was only around midnight at most.
Unexpectedly, it was already late at night before I knew it. "
Qi Yun heard her husband's sigh, walked to the desk, leaned over and held the porridge bowl on the tray in her hands.
"Husband, when I came to bring you lotus seed porridge, it was already late.
It's fine now. After so long, the lotus seed porridge in the bowl has already cooled down.
Please wait for a while, I will go to the kitchen to heat up the porridge and water for you, and then bring it to you. "
Qi Yun was holding the porridge bowl in both hands and was about to walk out of the study, when Young Master Liu walked directly towards the beauty.
"Yun'er."
"Husband."
"You don't have to go to trouble again. It's cold as long as it's cold. Just drink it alive for your husband."
"How can that be done? This lotus seed porridge has been cold for a long time. Husband, if you drink it like this, it will hurt your stomach."
Hearing Qi Yun's caring words, Young Master Liu shook his head with a smile and took the porridge bowl in her hand.
"Yun'er, your man is not that delicate.
Drinking a bowl of cold porridge is nothing. "
As soon as Mr. Liu finished speaking, he picked up the bowl of porridge and drank it in big gulps.
"Hey, husband..."
When Qi Yun was about to stop him, Young Master Liu had already drank all the cold porridge in the bowl.
Young Master Liu smiled lightly and raised his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth, gently put the porridge bowl back on the tray, and looked at Qi Yun who looked at him with a look of annoyance with a smile.
"Yun'er, cold porridge is better. Drink it to refresh yourself."
"You, let me tell you what to do. I'll heat up the porridge and water for you. How much time can I waste?"
Young Master Liu moved his neck a few times, turned back to the chair and sat down again.
"Yun'er, there are only a few files left in total. Finish processing early and go to bed early."
Qi Yun's face suddenly became helpless when she saw that Mr. Liu had just finished drinking the cold porridge and had to continue processing the remaining files before he could rest for a while.
"Husband!"
"Hey? What's wrong?"
Qi Yun glared at Young Master Liu angrily, walked over quickly, and stretched out her hand to grab the file he just held in his hand.
"Husband, you just put down the file, how long did you rest for?
You don't even have time for a cup of tea, and you sit down again. Can your body handle it? "
While Qi Yun was complaining, she reached out and snatched the file from Young Master Liu's hand.
When Liu Dashan saw Qi Yun trying to seize the file in his hand, he hurriedly turned aside and hid the file behind his back.
"Yun'er, Yun'er, good lady, what are you doing?"
Qi Yun heard Young Master Liu's words and glared at him fiercely again. She pressed Young Master Liu's shoulder with one hand and continued to snatch the files he had hidden behind him with the other hand.
"What do you mean I am doing? Of course I want you to rest for a while!
Husband, no matter how busy you are, you still have to pay attention to your body.
You don’t feel sorry for your own body, but I still feel sorry for my body!
Hurry up and give the file to me. As for other things, I'll wait until you have a good rest first. "
When Young Master Liu heard Qi Yun's words of concern for him, he felt both moved and helpless.
"Yun'er, listen to my husband."
"Husband, you don't need to say anything, I know what you want to say.
I still say what I said to you, in my heart, your body is the most important.
No matter how important other things are, they have to take a back seat in front of your body.
As for my husband, I naturally understand your difficulties, but you also have to be considerate of my painstaking efforts.
You are my husband, how could I not feel sorry for you? "
Young Master Liu felt the firmness in the beauty's words, raised his eyes and looked at the stubborn look on Qi Yun's pretty face, and nodded helplessly.
"Okay, okay, give it to you, give it to you, why don't you just take a good rest as a husband?"
Unable to defeat Qi Yun, Young Master Liu had no choice but to raise the file in his hand and hand it directly to the beautiful lady.
Qi Yun quickly took the file from her husband and nodded with a smile on her face.
"That's pretty much it."
Young Master Liu looked at Qi Yun's coquettish expression, sighed softly, turned his head and gestured to the remaining files on the desk.
"Yun'er, for my husband, I have already dealt with nine out of ten of the more than twenty important files.
Counting the one in your hand, there are still three copies left in total.
If my husband is done with it early, we can have a rest early.
On the contrary, not only can we not go to bed early, but our husbands will have to stay up longer.
If you don't take a rest, you have to stay with your husband and continue to endure it.
Yun'er, say it yourself, would it be best for your husband to take a little more rest now? Or should I just cut through the mess quickly and deal with the remaining files as soon as possible, and go have a good rest as soon as possible? "
Qi Yun's pretty face was slightly startled. She first looked at the file she was holding in her hand, and then scanned the two remaining files on the desk. Her expression suddenly became tangled.
This choice seems a bit difficult for myself.
If you want your husband and you to have a good rest early, then he must continue to be busy now.
On the contrary, if he was asked to rest for a while now, he and his wife would not be able to rest early.
With such a situation in front of me, for a while, I really couldn't decide which one to choose.
Young Master Liu looked at the tangled look on Qi Yunqiao's face, chuckled and took back the case file in her hand.
"Good Yun'er, don't worry about it.
If you feel sorry for your husband's body, your husband will understand.
However, my husband can only go to rest early if he finishes his government affairs as soon as possible.
Do you think this is true? "
"Hmm...it seems...that's the truth."
Liu Mingzhi stood up, nodded and kissed the beauty's lips.
"Good Yun'er, let's change the candles.
There are only these few files left, and my husband will be finished soon. "
Qi Yun looked at the tenderness in Young Master Liu's eyes, pursed her slightly moist lips and remained silent for a short moment, then nodded her head gently a few times.
"Okay, I will listen to you."
Qi Yun responded, turned around and walked directly towards the wooden box placed in the corner.
Young Master Liu looked at Qi Yun's beautiful figure with soft eyes, sat down gently, nodded and opened the file in his hand again.
Qi Yun took out a brand new candle from the wooden box, walked back to the desk and stopped.
Looking at the dying candlelight on the candlestick, Qi Yun immediately lit the red candle in her hand and skillfully replaced it on the candlestick.
"Yun'er."
"I'm here."
"It's already late at night. You should go lie down on the couch next to the bookshelf for a while."
"Husband, I'm not sleepy, I'd better stay with you."
"Oh, good Yun'er, you don't need to accompany my husband like this, there are only these few files left, and my husband can finish them soon.
Obedient, you go and lie down on the soft cave for a while. "
"Okay, I'll go over first."
"go Go."
Qi Yun nodded slightly and walked back towards Ruandao not far away.
She leaned over and half-lyed, half-lying down, sleeping on the couch, and looked at her husband who was still busy with her soft eyes again.
I don't know how much time passed, but when Qi Yun's eyelids were trembling, Young Master Liu stood up gently, stretched his arms with his arms high.
As if she heard her husband's footsteps, Qi Yun, who was already drowsy, immediately opened her eyes.
"Well, husband, are you done?"
"Hey, I've finished my work for my husband, Yun'er, you're not asleep yet."
"Well... I'm not sleepy yet."
Young Master Liu heard Qi Yun's tough reply and looked at her with pity.
"Oh, you are such a stupid wife for your husband."
Qi Yun rubbed the corners of her eyes with her fingers and held up half of her cheeks with her hands while smiling.
"Silly husband."
Young Master Liu saw that Qi Yunqiao's face was obviously exhausted, but she still pretended to be energetic, and shook her head guiltily.
"Yun'er, in the evening, my husband has already taken a bath at Jie'er's place.
Now I'm going to rinse my mouth outside the study, and I'll be back soon to have a rest with you.
Young Master Liu told Qi Yun softly, picked up the teapot on the desk, and walked quickly towards the door of the study.
"Hey, husband, go and wash up."
After a long time, Mr. Liu returned to the study with a teapot in hand.
Seeing the beauty who had become drowsy again on Ruantan, Young Master Liu blew out the red candle on the desk, and walked towards Ruantan with light steps under the hazy moonlight that filtered in through the window.
As soon as Young Master Liu lay down, Qi Yun naturally snuggled into her husband's arms.
Feeling the familiar smell of the person next to her pillow, Qi Yun laid her head sideways on Young Master Liu's arm and groaned lazily with her pretty face.
"Hey, husband, you can finally have a good rest."
"Good Yun'er, thank you for staying with me until now."
"Well~ It's not hard. This is all of my own free will. If you don't rest, I won't be able to sleep."
"Good lady, go to bed early."
"Well, husband, you should also go to bed early."
Time passed quietly, and the bright moon in the night sky outside the study gradually turned westward.
Listening to the even breathing of the beauty in his arms, Young Master Liu carefully put his arms behind his head and looked straight out of the study window.
Quietly staring at the bright moonlit starry sky outside the window, Young Master Liu's eyes gradually became confused.
"Husband, I believe that under your governance, Dalong's world will become more and more prosperous.
Husband, you should be very proud when you see this picture of a peaceful and prosperous age in front of you, right? "
Unknowingly, the words that Chen Jie said to herself with pride on her face when the lanterns first came on appeared in front of her eyes.
However, just as Chen Jie's words passed before his eyes, a scene from many years ago appeared in front of Young Master Liu's eyes.
Those were some scenes that my father-in-law, Li Zheng, taught me many years ago when he was still alive.
"Liu Mingzhi, do you think I don't know how many corrupt officials there are in the world?
However, you have to know one thing: there is no way to kill all the corrupt officials.
If you kill one group, there will be another group.
As long as there are people who continue to be officials, corrupt officials will never be eliminated.
As the king of a country, I hope more than you that the officials will govern in a clear and clear way, and that the seas and rivers will be clear.
Moreover, I can't wait to catch all those corrupt officials and kill them all.
But, I can’t, I can’t do that!
This world is so big that someone always needs to manage it.
Do you understand my difficulty?
Therefore, the best way is to know how to use people.
Whether they are honest officials or corrupt officials, as long as they are used properly, they will become useful pillars of the court.
Of course, the situations I just mentioned have a prerequisite.
That is, those bastards who violated the laws of the dragon, did things that took human life lightly, and caused anger and resentment are not included in this list.
It seems that those treacherous and evil people, no matter how capable they are, still have to kill one by one.
Oh, forget it, forget it, why should I tell you these useless things.
If you are not in my position, you will never understand my difficulties.
How is it so easy to govern a vast world with tens of thousands of subjects?
It is not easy to be the king of a country.
Being a wise king is even more difficult.
However, being a wise king in a prosperous age is even more difficult!
In a word, I have never cared about some so-called notoriety and infamy.
Qing history is the most fair.
I will go to heaven after my great journey in the future.
Let future generations comment on what kind of reputation is left in the history books. "
Liu Mingzhi came back to his senses in his memories and looked at the moonlight outside the window with bright eyes.
His father's mood back then should be no different from his current mood.
Back then, I might have understood the difficulties Li Zheng was facing, but I couldn't truly feel his difficulties.
Now I have experienced it myself.
Finally, he truly realized the helpless feeling he felt back then.
It is not easy to be the king of a country.
Being a wise king is even more difficult.
Being a wise king in a prosperous age is even more difficult.
In my mind, I recalled Li Zheng's words over and over again.
Tonight, today.
Mr. Liu, I have insomnia.
Father, the old man said yes!
It is so difficult to be the king of a country!
