Chapter 11 Chapter Eleven

In the middle of the night, I was afraid that the flowers would fall asleep, so I lit red candles to illuminate the high hall. As if he was afraid that a flash would realize that Yun Ge had disappeared before his eyes, so Liu Fuling didn't allow any darkness to affect his vision. In the hall of Xuanshi, the candles are brightly lit, reflecting everything clearly. Physician Zhang half-kneeled in front of the dragon couch, doing acupuncture for Yunge. Liu Fuling was afraid of disturbing Imperial Physician Zhang's mind, so he stood outside the curtain, but his eyes were fixed on the inside of the curtain for a moment.

Yu An, Qixi, Liushun and other eunuchs knelt down on the ground in a dark mass. There were people inside and outside the hall, but there was no sound. There was an oppressive silence in the hall. After a long time, Imperial Physician Zhang came out sweating profusely, kowtowed wearily to Liu Fuling and asked to leave: "I will come back tomorrow. Your Majesty, don't worry, Miss Yun is not seriously injured, she will recover after a period of recuperation." Liu Fuling said softly, "Go back and have a good rest." Doctor Zhang followed a young eunuch out of the hall. Liu Fuling sat beside the couch, and gently traced Yun Ge's eyebrows, eyes, and nose with his fingers...

He hurried out from the front hall, and just arrived at Canghe, what he saw was Yunge hanging upside down on the high platform. Suddenly, the ice platform collapsed, and the ice and snow flew. Like a butterfly with broken wings, she fell into the abyss of death. She was so helpless, but he could only watch her fall. He dragged her into danger, but he couldn't protect her. He could only watch helplessly as he lost her. He can only watch... Liu Fuling had been sitting in front of Yunge's couch for over an hour.Seeing that the emperor seemed to want to stay with Yun Ge all the time, Yu An hesitated for a long time, but still gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, it will be dawn in more than an hour, and there are still political affairs to be dealt with after dawn. The emperor has a short rest, Miss Yun. There are servants to look after it."

Look after?Liu Fuling looked up at Yu An. Eye-to-eye contact with Liu Fuling, a group of eunuchs kowtowed in horror, Yu An said in a cold sweat, "Your Majesty, it's a slave who is ineffective in doing things, I beg you to punish me." Liu Shun hurriedly said: "It has nothing to do with the master, it's the slave who is incompetent. He was tricked by the guards and failed to protect Miss Yun. The slave is willing to take the death penalty." Liu Fuling asked calmly: "Is Matcha and Fuyu still alive?" Yu An immediately replied: "Fuyu was seriously injured, and Matcha was slightly injured. They are still in a coma, but there is no danger of their lives. When they wake up, the slaves will definitely punish them severely."

Liu Fuling looked at the eunuch who was kneeling on the ground, a bit tired: "You guys have been kneeling all night, go back and rest!" Liu Shun was stunned, what does the emperor mean?Don't need to deal with them? Liu Fuling waved his hand: "Everyone get down!" All the eunuchs lowered their heads and quickly exited the hall. After a while, the hall became empty, leaving Yu An alone. Yu Anqi said, "Your Majesty, this servant will definitely protect Miss Yun and never let such a thing happen again." Liu Fuling stared at Yun Ge, and asked almost to himself: "If you can protect him for a while, can you protect him for a lifetime? The guards in the palace are all theirs. Can you really guarantee that there will be no negligence? There are still people hiding in the dark. Can you guard against each of the maids in the palace?"

Yu An was speechless, such a question... Even if he asked about the emperor's safety, he couldn't answer, let alone Yun Ge's?After all, the number of eunuchs is limited, and his primary responsibility is to protect the safety of the emperor, so the number of eunuchs available to Yun Ge is limited.If Huo Guang is determined to take Yun Ge's life, he can't give the emperor any guarantee at all. Yu An looked at Yun Ge, and suddenly felt that her fate was fixed, it was just a matter of time, and she regretted it in her heart, but she couldn't think of any way to save it.

Liu Fuling shook his head with a smile, indeed as Meng Jue said, he could keep her, but he couldn't protect her, and sighed: "Go down! I want to be alone with Yun Ge. Also, when Yun Ge wakes up, I will definitely ask about Matcha and Fuyu, there is no need to punish them, this matter ends here." Seeing Liu Fuling's expression, Yu An didn't dare to speak out, and retreated silently. Liu Fuling sat on the ground, holding Yunge's hand with one hand, and rubbing back and forth along the lifeline on Yunge's palm print with the other hand. He can't let "accidents" happen again, not every "accident" will be lucky to save the day.If Yun Ge...and...

When he saw Yun Ge fall with his own eyes, the despair of being overwhelmed overwhelmed him again. Liu Fuling held Yun Ge's hand tightly, making sure that she was safe. How can we truly eradicate "accidents"? There are only two ways to go: one is to get rid of Huo Guang, but this is not something that can be done within three to five years. This is a long-term contest. turmoil.The second is... to let Yun Ge leave.Leaving this palace that she didn't belong to, leaving the vortex of Chang'an City. He should set her free.isn't it?She originally belonged to a wider world, not to this palace full of conspiracy and blood in every corner.

However, since they met each other, since they made a high-five oath, she is the only one. After waiting for so many years, even a seed the size of a grain of rice has grown into a towering tree, let alone his lovesickness?She has grown in his heart, intertwined and deeply rooted. If you want to pull her out, maybe you need to pull out his heart together. Who can tell him how a person can sever his heart? ... When Yun Ge regained consciousness, he only felt pain in his internal organs like burning, and he couldn't help moaning. Liu Fuling hurriedly asked, "Where does it hurt?"

Yun Ge slowly opened his eyes, in a trance, almost suspicious of dreaming: "I'm alive?" Liu Fuling nodded, "Meng Jue saved you." Yun Ge was startled, then smiled and said, "Then you should thank him well." Liu Fuling listened to Yun Ge's words with special meaning, his heart skipped a beat, he couldn't say a word under the ecstasy of disbelief, and just stared blankly at Yun Ge. I thought we had parted ways, but unexpectedly there was a chance to reunite, Yun Ge felt unspeakable joy, touched Liu Fuling's brow lightly, and blamed with distress: "Did you not sleep all night? Why are you so stupid? If you fall asleep here, you won’t be conscious, and it’s useless to accompany you, why don’t you sleep for a while?”

Liu Fuling grasped Yun Ge's hand, but Yun Ge didn't try to pull it away like before, but let him hold it, and lowered his eyes in embarrassment. All the uncertainty in Liu Fuling's heart disappeared, leaving only joy, surging like a sea tide. It was a bright sunny day outside, but inside the house was a dream come true for many years. Liu Fuling put Yunge's hand on the side of his face, rubbing it lightly, first there was a slightly curved smile on the corners of his lips, and then a big grin. Yun Ge's heart was also filled with uncontrollable joy, seeing the smile on Liu Fuling's face, she couldn't help but want to grin, but she couldn't let go of the throbbing pain in her abdomen. It turns out that the road of life is actually very simple, and uncertainty is the most painful. Once you make up your mind to move forward, even if the road ahead is full of thorns, you can still be happy without fear. The two of them were like two little fools, neither of them knew what to say, they just smirked at each other. outside. Yu An called "Emperor" tentatively. The two woke up from giggling. Liu Fuling said: "Don't bother me, I won't see anyone today, let them all go home and spend the New Year with their wives and children." When Yu An just wanted to open his mouth, he blocked everything in his mouth. Yun Ge whispered, "Be careful when people call you a fool." Liu Fuling smiled: "If you faint, just faint! I wasn't sober in the first place, and now I go out to deal with things, who knows what I'll say." The emperor's tone of voice was never heard before, and there was a deep smile in his voice.Yu An felt that the emperor was no longer the only one who fainted. He was also fainted now. Last night he was still gloomy, and everyone dared not even breathe, but today... The day is changing too fast! Yu An looked up at the sky, walked away, and sighed: "The sky is blue, clear and cloudless. It's a beautiful day. After a year of trouble, it's time to have a good year and rest for a few days!" Liu Fuling asked Yun Ge: "Do you feel uncomfortable? Do you want to rest? Doctor Zhang will come back to give you an injection at night." Yun Ge shook his head: "Just don't make me laugh, it doesn't matter if you speak slowly." "Yun Ge, I want to tell you..." "Brother Ling, I want to tell you..." The two looked at each other with a smile, opened their mouths to speak at the same time, and stopped at the same time. "You talk first." Yun Ge said. Liu Fuling said: "You speak first!" Yun Ge smiled embarrassedly, lowered his eyes and said, "Brother Ling, I figured out something last night. When I fell down, I regretted it and felt that I didn't do a lot of things that should be done. There are too many things in life. Unpredictable, no one can really predict what will happen in the future. I don’t want to have a lot of regrets at the end of the matter, so if you like it, you should like it, and you should do it if you want to do it. Why worry so much?” Liu Fuling stared at Yun Ge's slightly trembling eyelashes, restrained his joy, and asked softly, "Then what do you want to do?" The two little butterflies on Yun Ge's eyes fluttered a few times: "Brother Ling, I want to be with you!" A simple sentence made Liu Fuling feel like listening to the sound of nature, and his whole body and mind were like drinking alcohol. How many years had he not felt happy? Liu Fuling held Yun Ge's palm, lowered his head, and kissed her palm: "Yun Ge, I also figured out one thing last night. Life is long, but it is actually very short. Ten years, counting illnesses and accidents, no one really knows how long it will be. I have had enough resentment and helplessness in my life, and I don't want to live like this for the rest of my life. Yun Ge, do you still remember the promise you made to me when you were young? Said that you are willing to go to Miaojiang with me to play, willing to accompany me to travel thousands of mountains and rivers?" Yun Ge couldn't understand what Liu Fuling meant.If he was just "Brother Ling", then all the promises would be fulfilled easily, but he was not only her brother Ling, he was also the emperor of the Han Dynasty.Yun Ge nodded foolishly: "I never forgot." Liu Fuling smiled: "Yun Ge, from now on, I only want to be your 'Brother Ling'." Yun Ge stared wide-eyed, unable to really understand Liu Fuling's words for a moment. After a long while, he said with tongue-tied words: "Then...then...but...but..." Finally, he stammered and uttered a complete sentence, "Then who...who will be the emperor of the Han...Han Dynasty?" Liu Fuling looked at Yun Ge's dumbfounded expression, and asked in embarrassment: "Yes! Who will be the emperor of the Han Dynasty?" Amidst the great joy, Yun Ge woke up a little bit, and stretched out his hand to hit Liu Fuling: "You are so smart, you must have thought about it a long time ago, why don't you hurry..." Unintentionally touched the wound in his stomach, Yun Ge frowned . Liu Fuling didn't dare to tease her anymore, so he hurriedly held her hand and slapped it on his own: "Yun Ge, which one do you think is better, Liu He or Liu Bingji? I think both of them are good, so we will start from Choose one of them to be emperor, okay?" At this moment, Yun Ge was really sure that every word Liu Fuling said was extremely serious, and he even had a detailed plan to realize his decision. Yun Ge originally stayed by Liu Fuling's side with the heart of a strong man breaking his wrist, although she had no other choice, but the regret and regret she felt when she was dying made her feel that this helplessness might be a little less than the helplessness of leaving brother Ling. Unexpectedly, Liu Fuling was willing to take the risk of giving up the throne, Yun Ge only felt that her world was bright and bright in an instant, without a trace of gloom, and she could even see the joy and happiness of every day in the future.Yunge hasn't felt this happy for a long time, her heart is so crowded that it looks like it's going to explode, but even after the explosion, every piece of debris is still full of happiness. Seeing Yun Ge, Liu Fuling was in a daze first, then smiled foolishly, and then talked to himself, muttering in his mouth, listened carefully, only then could he hear clearly, she had already started planning, they had to go home to see her first Parents, grab the third brother's mount, and then he rides a horse, she rides a bell, and they start their journey, first go to Miaojiang to play...then go... She wants to collect ingredients and write recipes.Han people are not good at cooking beef and mutton, and Hu people don’t know how to use seasonings or cook vegetables. She can teach each other the good ways of cooking food from the two ethnic groups while walking, so that everyone can eat better food... Liu Fuling felt sore in his heart, he imprisoned Yun Ge by his side, and what he imprisoned was a soul longing to fly.When Yun Ge was in the palace, how had he ever been truly happy? Fortunately, they still have a long time to go. He had never liked the throne, but in order to keep it, he had to lose everything.Give it to people who can and really want it, and they'll do better. Giving up the throne, he and Yun Ge can pursue their happiness. Liu Fuling is glad that he made the most correct decision in his life, he can finally fly according to his own wishes, and do what he wants to do. "Yun Ge, do you have money?" Yun Ge was still immersed in wonderful fantasies, upon hearing this she shook her head blankly, then nodded again: "I don't, but I will make money." Liu Fuling patted Yun Ge's head appreciatively: "It seems that my daughter-in-law is right. I will rely on you to support me in the future." Yun Ge smiled so much that her eyes were crescent like crescents. "Yes! A certain person can only sell an official, and he will not be an official in the future, so pitiful! In the future, follow me! Make the bed, make the quilt, and warm the kang for me. Serve me well, and I will reward you with a bowl of rice. of." Hearing Yun Ge's soft voice and seeing her bright eyebrows, Liu Fuling's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but leaned over and kissed her on the forehead: "I will definitely 'serve' well." Yun Ge blushed and spat at him, but she was too embarrassed to reply, so she just pouted resentfully. Liu Fuling missed Yunge for many years, and finally met again, but Yunge always refused him thousands of miles away.At this moment, Yun Ge was beside him, and the hopeless years of longing had all come true, and his heart was so full of emotion that he couldn't help taking off his shoes, lying sideways beside Yun Ge, holding her hand, and quietly staring at her. With a side face, I only feel satisfied and stable in my heart. Yun Ge felt Liu Fuling's breathing by his ear, felt numbness on one side of his body, and stiffness on the other side.There is tension, strangeness, and joy. I only wish that she and him will be safe and happy forever. Seeing that Yun Ge was nervous, Liu Fuling was afraid that it would affect his internal injuries, so he hooked Yun Ge's fingers and jokingly said, "When you recover from illness, I will definitely listen to you singing love songs, so as not to cause anyone to complain in public. spread to foreign lands." When Yun Ge talked to Alia, she was calm, but at this moment, thinking of Liu Fuling listening to her nonsense in public, she didn't know what she was thinking at that time, so she blushed. "You still dare to laugh at me? I did it to help you win! What I said was targeted, not nonsense. When a Qiang girl is thirteen years old, she will receive a machete prepared by her father and brother as a gift of coming of age. , When they find someone they like, they will give the scimitar to the other party as a token of love. Alia’s scimitar has not been sent yet, which proves that she has not yet made a decision. Qiang girls also pay attention to the color of their headscarves, green and pink , yellow, and blue all represent that men can pursue them, but Aaliyah's headscarf is red. Red means that she does not want to hear men's love songs and does not welcome men to disturb her. Aaliyah has not made a commitment, so why did she use red? The only explanation is that she already has someone she likes, but she hasn't told him yet. I wanted to lure her to agree to Wendou, but I had to make her fearful of martial arts, but grassland daughters are rarely timid, so I can only try my best It made her feel that there were regrets and things she hadn't done. As a princess, Alia dared not give away a scimitar. It only proved that the person she liked was very special in her heart. The deeper Alia's feelings were, the more likely she would agree to Wen fight." At this time, Liu Fuling really understood that Yun Ge didn't say a word of nonsense at that time, and her every action and every word disturbed Alia's mind. When Yun Ge proposed a literary battle, Alia would be easy accept. Liu Fuling pinched Yunge's nose, and there was pampering and pride in the action: "It seems that I should thank Alia's favorite, he has unintentionally done a big favor to the Han people." Yun Ge's smile was a bit stiff, and he laughed dryly twice: "It's fine for you to know and I know about this, don't tell others. If my third brother knows that I'm messing with women to chase him, he will definitely put me... "Yun Ge made a frightened expression. Liu Fuling was somewhat surprised and somewhat amused: "Alia's favorite is your third brother? So you knew her a long time ago." "No, no, I didn't know until I saw Aaliyah close up. Did you see the bracelet on her wrist? There was a small silver wolf mask hanging on it, which was exactly the same as the mask my third brother wore. You said What's the point of a girl wearing my third brother's mask next to her body?" Yun Ge laughed out loud, "Third brother is going to be depressed... oh!" Affecting the wound, Yun Ge's eyes and nose wrinkled in pain. People, really can't get too carried away! Liu Fuling hurriedly said: "Don't laugh anymore." Yun Ge grinned and said, "I'm happy, I can't help it! Tell me something unpleasant, when are we going to leave Chang'an? The sooner the better! I really want to get well and leave with you." Chang'an." Liu Fuling looked solemn and wanted to be more serious, but there were still dots of happy stars in his eyes: "Not so fast, but I think I can definitely leave within a year." "I think the eldest brother is very good, um... The eldest son seems to be good, except that he is a little blind. It should be good to pass on to any of them. Why does it take so long to choose? Are you afraid that the officials in the court will object? Or Afraid that the prince will not accept it?" "Yun Ge, I really want to leave Chang'an as soon as possible, but..." Liu Fuling became serious, "Do you remember those people who sang with Liu Bingji in the hall? I don't care how the court officials react, I don't even care what the vassals mean, but I care about them." Yun Ge nodded: "Yeah." "It's not Liu Bingji who scares Ke Erdada, let alone the civil servants and generals in the hall, but the big Han people who will sing loudly after Liu Bingji's death. They work hard, pay taxes to support the officials and the army, and they join the army to fight , repel the Yi people with my own life, but what they hope for is food, clothing and safety. As long as I am in power, I will protect them for a day. Now I am selfish and want to escape my responsibility, so I must ensure that this The position is too peacefully passed on to someone who can protect them. If because of my carelessness, the battle for the throne is triggered and the common people are harmed, I will never forgive myself." Yun Ge held Liu Fuling's hand: "I understand, I will wait patiently. Don't worry, I think whether it is the eldest brother or the eldest son, they will definitely protect them." Liu Fuling said with a smile: "Liu He, I understand him better. He has no problem with his ambition and talent, but he always pretends to be confused, so that I really can't see his means and style of acting. I need to observe carefully. Liu is sick. Xinxing is more complicated and requires careful observation for a period of time." Although there was an accident at the New Year's banquet, under the tacit understanding of Liu Fuling and Huo Guang, very few people knew about it.Only a group of forbidden troops disappeared without a sound. Yunge's accident seemed to be like countless other palace conspiracies, happening in the dark and disappearing in the dark, without even seeing the first ray of sunlight in the morning, it had already disappeared behind everyone's sleep. But in fact, because of this accident, all parties began to rearrange their arrangements.All parties have new plans, and they have not moved lightly, which has allowed everyone to have an extremely stable New Year. Yun Ge woke up from a nap, and saw Liu Fuling looking at something on the side of the couch, his eyebrows frowned slightly. Hearing the sound, Liu Fuling frowned, put the things in his hands aside, and helped Yunge up. Yun Ge casually picked up what Liu Fuling was looking at just now, it was the imperial decree drafted by officials on behalf of the Xuanchangyi King Liu He to visit Chang'an, and they were all official-sounding words. Yun Ge asked with a smile: "Are you going to call Liu He to the capital to observe carefully?" "It's not just observation. There are some things that need to be taught to them slowly from now on. When I was three or four years old, my father had already taught me how to read memorials and understand the meaning behind the words." Matcha let out a sigh from outside the curtain, brought the medicine in, and moved extremely cautiously, Yun Ge knew that she was still guilty and blamed herself, and it was difficult for a while, so she could only smile helplessly. Liu Fuling took the imperial decree and put it aside, took the decoction from Matcha, and personally served Yun Ge to drink the medicine. After Liu Fuling fed Yun Ge the medicine, took water, and rinsed his mouth with her: "But I don't know if he will come. The relationship between the emperor and the feudal prince is very delicate. On the one hand, the interests of the feudal prince's clan and the emperor Unanimously, the world belongs to the emperor, and even more to the Liu family. If the position of the emperor is robbed, the entire Liu surname will lose the world. The existence of vassal kings and relatives is a deterrent to the courtiers and generals, so that everyone understands that the royal family Jiji, even if the emperor is gone, it will not be their turn. On the other hand, the emperor must always be on guard against other thoughts of the vassal kings to prevent them from colluding with the ministers. Of course, the vassal kings are also always on guard against the emperor. You have to be careful, and you have to be careful if you have no dissent, because whether you have dissent is not up to you, but whether the emperor believes you. There are many examples in history where loyal vassals were killed or forced to rebel by suspicious emperors." There are so many things in one imperial edict?Yun Ge was depressed: "Do you think Liu He won't believe you? He will find excuses, refuse to accept the imperial edict, and not enter Chang'an? Even being frightened by your edict?" Liu Fuling nodded: "No one would trust the emperor, let alone his position. In this world, you can only trust me." "Then what shall we do?" Liu Fuling smiled and said: "You don't need to worry about these things. I will always find a way to solve them. What you have to worry about is how to take care of your body." Liu Fuling didn't want to talk about business any more, and told Yun Ge that the Lantern Festival was approaching, there would be celebrations both in the palace and among the people, and asked her what kind of lanterns she liked. Yun Ge suddenly said: "I want to go out of the palace during the Lantern Festival, first to look at the lights, and second... Second, if you don't mind, I want to see Meng Jue, thank him for saving his life." "I never minded you seeing him, I was just nervous." Liu Fuling stroked Yun Ge's temple with his hand, and said gently, "There are people who are as discerning as I am in discerning gems, and most of them are out of sympathy. Besides, he is a man worthy of respect.” Embarrassed by Liu Fuling's words, Yun Ge turned her head away with a blushing face, mixed with joy and sourness in her heart.Brother Ling regards her as a treasure, and he doesn't feel that she is precious enough, thinking that everyone else is just like him.Meng Jue didn't regard her as any jewel, at most it was just one of the few pearls that could win his favor. Liu Fuling said: "Yun Ge, Meng Jue is a shrewd person. When talking to him, please be careful. The abdication of the throne is a very important matter. If you haven't made a final decision for a day, you must not reveal your words, otherwise you will cause troubles and endless troubles. .” Yun Ge nodded: "I understand." The current situation is a delicate balance, maybe the power of a drop of water can break it, not to mention the throne, the power that controls the people in the world? Not to mention the courtiers, but only Liu He and Liu Jiji. They don't have other ideas now, so one can be a muddled vassal king, and the other wants to help the emperor wholeheartedly, in order to restore the name of the clan one day.Once they know that they have a chance to obtain the throne, can they still be quiet?Maybe the fight between each other will be more intense than the prince's fight for the throne. In Chang'an City, the last section of the road may become the most difficult road in his life. Liu Fuling stared at Yun Ge: "Yun Ge, why don't you go home first, and I'll go find you when the matter is settled." Yun Ge frowned and stared: "Don't even think about it! I'm going to stay here!" Liu Fuling explained patiently: "It's not that I don't want you to accompany me, but I'm afraid there will be troubles in the future..." Yun Ge's mouth pursed: "Brother Ling, how many years did it take us to reunite when we parted for the first time? I don't want to count the days and wait, no matter what happens, I don't want to be separated from you anyway. If you dare to drive me away, I will ignore you again!" Liu Fuling was silent. Yun Ge took his hand and shook it back and forth, her mouth was pursed, her face was pitiful, but her dark eyes were full of stubbornness. Liu Fuling sighed: "Why are you still like this? You are still hurt, stop shaking, I promise you." Yun Ge changed his face faster than turning the pages of a book, and he was already smiling in an instant: "Fortunately, you treat me a little better than when you were a child, otherwise I would be so pitiful." "Is it better?" Liu Fuling asked quietly with no expression on his face. Yun Ge giggled and approached him: "This is to encourage you to keep working hard, and it shows that Liu Fuling still has a lot, a lot of room for improvement on the way to being good to the beautiful, cute and smart Yun Ge. You have to work hard every day. Everyone treats me a little better than the day before, every day I have to think about whether there is anything I did not do well yesterday, did I make the lovely Yun Ge unhappy? Every day..." Liu Fuling picked up the imperial decree without saying a word, turned around and went away, Liu Yunge shouted: "Hey, I haven't finished talking yet!"
