Chapter 134 Thunder, Rain and Dew Are All Your Grace
With round eyes and red eyes, Shen Liuzhen walked up to Zong Ai's side, knelt down while holding Zong Ai's clothes as if his legs were limp, and asked with a trill:
"Master Chang Shi... What did His Majesty call me here for? I am not in the same league as him!"

Shen Liuzhen stretched out his hand and pointed to the pool of blood next to the distant pillar, and shamelessly began to act pitifully.

Seeing him like this, Zong Ai immediately felt that Coke was not good enough, looked at him and scolded with a smile:

"Look at your coward, who thinks you are in the same group? Your Majesty called you here to ask you about the emperor's grandson. Don't be afraid, ah."

Upon hearing this, Shen Liuzhen stood up tremblingly, and said with a bitter face:

"It can't be blamed for my timidity. There are too many Han people who have died recently. My lord, I'm next to the emperor and grandson again..."

Zong Ai led him to go inside, twisted his face and looked speechless: "Oh, you're thinking too much, you're a child with no official position, it's not your turn to have a knife."

"Oh... I'm relieved to hear Master Chang Shi say that." Shen Liuzhen obediently followed behind him and stopped talking.

When he got inside, he knelt down obediently and kowtowed, and shouted to Shi Yufoli who was seated above:
"Grassmen see Your Majesty."

The emperor propped his forehead, looking very distressed, Xu Shi was in a very bad mood just being teased by the prince and Taifu, and he didn't respond for a long time.

Shen Liuzhen knelt with his head down, waited for a long time, just about to look up quietly, when he heard the emperor say:

"Get up."

"Yes." Shen Liuzhen stood up.

The emperor looked at Shen Liuzhen at the bottom of the steps. He was 13 years old. He was wearing a Confucian scholar's long-sleeved gown, with a reserved and gentle temperament of a literati. For some reason, he suddenly remembered that when he returned to the court, he saw his son innocently waiting at the gate of the city. look.

He also looks like a teenager, and he is also so docile and restrained.

"He has always been very filial." Shi Yufoli suddenly said this in his heart, and then a wave of grief and sadness began to well up in his heart.

Suffering multiple wounds on the battlefield, the emperor, who had never been afraid or hurt, felt that this time his head was stabbed with a sword, and there was nothing he could do to heal.

His face suddenly became vicissitudes, and the violent and domineering aura in his body weakened, like an old man in his twilight years.

He paused for a while before asking: "How is Wu Lei recently? I haven't seen him come to see me for a long time... Are you hating me?"

When Shen Liuzhen heard the word "hate", he immediately became alert, his body stiffened, and he panicked.

Oh my god, this can't be a wrong answer, it's okay to hate the emperor, how can you be the heir apparent in the future?
Shen Liuzhen lowered his head, turned his mind quickly, and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty, how could the emperor's grandson hate you? It's because the emperor's grandson stayed up all night in order to bury Prince Jingmu. He didn't sleep much for more than a month. Recently, he has been a little tired and has been taking care of you. The imperial physician prescribed The medicine is taken. You know it, Your Majesty."

The emperor naturally knew about it, but he still felt guilty and wanted to ask if Ulay hated him.

As for what will happen if he really hates, he hasn't thought about it yet...but he just wants to know.

"Is he hating me?" Shi Yufoli asked again, "All civil and military officials in the court think that I have harmed the crown prince, does he think so too?"

Shen Liuzhen knew that the set of rhetoric just now was obviously useless.He suddenly understood what Shi Yu Fuli was thinking.

He knows what he did wrong, he knows he regrets it, and he knows everyone is accusing him of doing it wrong.And this mistake is no longer like killing the Xie family and the clan's in-laws, it has nothing to do with him.

This time he cared a lot, he was in pain, and he was eager to get forgiveness and understanding from others.

Only in this way, he will feel better.

Shen Liuzhen thought of this, pursed his lips nervously, and then said seriously:

"Your Majesty... No one will hate you. Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the emperor. Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven will punish or reward, and the subjects can only suffer. They can't hate you, and they can't hate you..."

The emperor frowned, Zong Ai watched anxiously from the side, and reminded him aloud: "Shen Liuzhen... what you said seems to be that you have a lot of complaints in your heart..."

Shen Liuzhen quickly said: "Your Majesty, the emperor's grandson is the eldest son of His Royal Highness. Although the father and son are not very close, the relationship between father and son is still indispensable. Prince Jingmu died of depression. As a son, if he said that he would treat His Majesty in his heart There is no complaint, it is false, but it is just resentment, far from the point of hatred."

Shi Yufoli looked at Shen Liuzhen coldly, but his brows were already relaxed.

Shen Liuzhen tried his best to suppress the beating heart in his chest, feeling as exciting as he was playing with a tiger's beard.

But it's already said here, it's too late to regret...

"Your Majesty, just as Cao Min said, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. When it rains, Shengmin may be soaked in rainwater. Shengmin may complain to God because of the occasional rain and cold. But the sky rains Water is what the people depend on for their survival, if there is no rain, there will be a severe drought, and there will be no food in the coming year of the severe drought... So, how can you hate it?"

Zong Ai looked at Shen Liuzhen from the side, and there was a kind of admiration in his eyes... He thought to himself: As expected, he is a scholar, even flattering and comforting others, he is eclectic, very clever...

At this time, Shen Liuzhen observed Shi Yufoli's face, and saw that he seemed to be thinking, so he didn't say whether he believed it or not.

Shen Liuzhen quickly added another handful of firewood and said:

"Your Majesty...it's like...just like the valet beside you. He got the chance to enter the palace because of his family's crimes, and waits by your side... If it is common sense, should he also hate you? What about it? But, you know, Lord Zong Ai’s loyalty to you can be learned from heaven and earth. It’s all because you are His Majesty, the Son of Heaven, and your subjects can’t hate you..."

Zong Ai's face trembled, he almost thought that Shen Liuzhen was cheating him secretly, but when he heard it later, he still lifted him up high, and his face loosened again.

It's just...it feels a little strange, and I can't tell where it is.

At this time, Shen Liuzhen continued to say: "Think about it, Master Zong Ai is still like this, and the grandson of the emperor is still your own grandson who is connected by blood. How could he hate you?"

Shi Yufoli looked at Zong Ai beside him, and then at Shen Liuzhen, seeing that Shen Liuzhen looked at him unabashedly, those big innocent eyes were full of sincerity.

He believed it...

"Hey... step back." The emperor said with a sigh of relief.

"The grassroots leave." Shen Liuzhen bowed politely, lowered his head, and retreated steadily.

After he left, Shi Yu Fuli felt a little more comfortable in his heart. At least, Wu Lei would not hate him. This is a gratifying thing... However, he suddenly thought of something and asked Zong Ai:
"Where's the prince's letter? Haven't found it yet?"

Zong Ai said with a smile: "...Your Majesty, I am looking for it. The little eunuch below is not serious. It was lost in the storage room and I can't find it. I am currently arranging people to search through the items one by one."
