morning.
capital.
The cold wind is biting.
The people in the city take care of all kinds of businesses and work diligently. Businessmen come and go in an endless stream. There are readers everywhere.
Busy traffic, bustling and noisy.
The emperor leads the troops abroad and is powerful, while the prince sits in the capital for the sake of the country.
Liu Zhixing acted as prime minister of the country and took charge of world affairs.
Despite the continuous war ahead, all kinds of things are complicated. But under Liu Zhixing's management, the entire country was extremely stable.
The Han Dynasty was like a flying dragon soaring into the sky, its momentum was like a rainbow.
East Palace.
In the side hall.
The prince Wu Yu was studying, and young talents were carefully selected to study with the prince.
suddenly. Wu Yu put down the book in his hand and stood up, walked out of the door, turned and looked to the west. The young officials showed doubts, put down their books, and followed.
"Your Highness?" A civil servant bowed and saluted.
"It's nothing. I just miss my father a little bit." Wu Yu withdrew his eyes and said over his shoulder.
There is a saying that Tianjia is ruthless.
But in the Wu family, there is no such thing.
Wu Minxiong has extraordinary martial arts, very similar to Wu Nian. Wu Yu, the leader of Shoucheng, was shrewd and capable, preferring to be quiet rather than active, and appeared to be weak.
But Wu Min was measured and had no ambition to spy on the crown prince's position.
Wu Nian had a good idea. Although his eldest son looked like him, he had no intention of swaying the prince.
The Wu family and his son are very harmonious.
Wu Chang had been away leading troops for many years, and Wu Yu actually spent very little time with him. But the relationship between father and son is very good.
Wu Yu still remembers the time when he was riding on his father's neck and playing happily.
Just now, he suddenly felt something in his heart, and he missed his father a little.
The young official was stunned at first, and then felt the same.
In China, filial piety is the first virtue. These people study with the prince. One day, when the prince ascends the throne and becomes emperor, they will be his ministers, and their career will be just around the corner.
But many of them are not from the capital. They come from all over the world and are far away from their parents. Sometimes they miss their parents and cry.
"Your Majesty will definitely feel gratified if you know your filial piety." An official bowed.
Wu Yu shook his head, turned around and smiled at the ministers: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's continue studying."
"The lights are on at three o'clock and the chicken is on at five o'clock. It's the time for men to study. Black-haired people don't know how to study early, and white-headed people regret that they study late."
The ministers smiled slightly and were about to follow.
At this moment, an official came in a hurry, looking strange. Wu Yu's heart moved and he stood still with his head held high.
"Your Highness. Chen Guogong is dying."
After the official stood still, he bowed and saluted.
Wu Yu's expression changed slightly, and he immediately turned around and said, "Prepare the car. I want to leave the palace."
"Yes." An Ouchi guard responded loudly, turned around and went down to prepare.
All the ministers were shocked, then showed serious expressions, stood up straight, and let their hands hang down naturally.
In the past, when the emperor raised troops in Liaodong, there were three ministers. They are Liu Zhixing, Li Yong, and Wang Youxiao, who hold the real power of the General's Mansion to assist the Han Dynasty.
These three people entered the cabinet one after another.
There is no need to say anything about Liu Zhixing.
What Wang Youxiao did was also impressive.
And Chen Guogong Li Yong retired because of old age.
Although in terms of official position, merit, importance, etc., Liu Zhixing is the first. But Li Yong had a closer relationship with the emperor.
They are brothers of life and death who fought together.
The emperor is now in his fifties, and his temples are gray. As the oldest among his peers, Li Yong is already very old.
With his illness approaching, an era is coming to an end.
Wu Yu didn't bother to change his clothes, and got into the carriage directly. Surrounded by the imperial guards and ministers, he left the palace and arrived outside Chen Guogong's mansion.
Li Yong's eldest son died before Li Yong, and is now his grandson, named Li Ding.
When Li Yong became successful, Li Ding had already been born. Since childhood, he has been well-dressed and well-fed, studying and practicing martial arts. When he grows up, he will be tall and strong, with a graceful and luxurious temperament.
Three generations of the Li family have completed the transformation from veterans to nobles.
Hearing that the prince was coming, Li Ding led the men in the mansion to go out to greet him.
"Your Highness." After seeing Wu Yu's carriage, Li Ding quickly bowed and saluted. The rest of the men knelt down.
"No courtesy." Wu Yu got off the carriage, said this, and went directly to the gate. Li Ding quickly chased after him and led the way.
Chen Guogong's mansion was rich and powerful, with countless pavilions and pavilions. Wu Yu entered Li Yong's bedroom under the guidance of Li Ding.
Wu Yu frowned slightly, feeling the pungent smell of medicine. He took a deep breath and then walked in quickly.
On the bed. The charcoal stove emits bursts of heat.
Li Yong, who had run out of oil and lamps, was lying down, covered with a thick quilt. Two old maids were waiting on him, and they immediately knelt down when they saw the prince.
Li Ding walked forward, bent down and lay beside Li Yong's ear, and said, "Grandpa. Grandpa. The prince is here."
"Huh?" Li Yong opened his eyes, confused at first, and then refreshed. He stood up quickly as if he were looking back, planning to get out of bed and salute.
"Your Majesty, no courtesy." Wu Yu hurriedly stepped forward and held Li Yong's shoulders.
"Your Highness, I am ashamed of myself." Li Yong looked guilty and his voice was quite clear.
"The Lord's words are serious. There are no monarchs and ministers at home, only elders. Now I am my nephew and come to visit my uncle." Wu Yu bowed and saluted.
"Your Highness." Li Yong was so moved that he choked with tears.
As he lay dying, the past events were replayed in his mind. What happened when he was young is not worth mentioning.
The real excitement came when Wu Nian was twenty years old.
Starting from a humble beginning, he spans the world.
The wind comes and the fire goes. Now he is coming to the end of his life. He summed up his life in just two words: wonderful.
The emperor has swept the world in thirty years, and he is one of the best among the dragon heroes.
Wealth and honor are endless, and descendants of virtue are descendants.
What a wonderful experience.
"Huh." Li Yong exhaled, raised his head and said to Wu Yu seriously: "Your Highness, I can't survive."
Wu Yu was silent for a moment, originally wanting to comfort him that it was okay, but then he thought about it. What a person like Li Yong, he doesn't know that he has run out of gas.
He changed the topic and said, "Does the Duke have any unfinished business?"
"No." Li Yong shook his head and said with a smile, "Thanks to His Majesty's blessing, the old minister is full of children and grandchildren, and his descendants are rich and noble. My granddaughter is still Princess Qi. It is already very complete."
"But the old minister has something to say."
"Listen attentively." Wu Yu immediately turned serious, bowed and saluted.
"Your Majesty fought on the battlefield and was injured and bled countless times. In fact, his body and bones are not as good as before. Please take care of yourself, Your Majesty."
"Since ancient times, the founding king conquered the world, and the successor king succeeded to the throne as the lord who maintained it. His Highness is calm and resourceful, and the veteran is very relieved. But since ancient times, it has been difficult to succeed. The veteran hopes that His Highness can continue to do so for decades. Be a A promising and successful king."
Li Yong said.
"I will keep it in my heart." Wu Yu looked like he was being taught and bowed again.
