Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 480 Yuan Shu is Fierce
The local government is still busy with tax matters, but some guests have arrived in Luoyang.

Liu Mastiff, who was in Yuan Mansion, was called back to the palace by Huangmen.

Saying goodbye to Yuan Shu and his two friends, Liu Mastiff hurried back to the palace. When he arrived at the palace, he changed his clothes again. Huangmen told him that King Chenliu was here.

Liu Mastiff recalled that the memory of this uncle was a little fuzzy in his mind. After changing his clothes, he followed Huangmen to the outside of Houde Hall. Huangmen went in to report, and then Liu Mastiff was allowed in. Liu Mastiff was cautious walked in.

In the hall, the emperor hugged the prince Di, and sat face to face with King Chen Liu, chatting about something.

After Liu Mastiff paid homage to the Son of Heaven, he bowed to King Chenliu and said, "My nephew pays homage to my uncle!"

King Chen Liu was different from the Son of Heaven. He was very thin, with a short beard, and looked a little sick. When he saw Liu Mastiff coming in, a smile appeared on his face, "Mastiff? Has it grown so big?"

King Chen Liu waved his hand and asked Liu Mastiff to come over. He held his hand and asked him to sit beside him, "Mastiff, how old are you this year? Have you ever been to school?"

"Uncle, Mastiff is twelve years old and has already entered school."

"Who do you study under?"

"Sikong Yuangong."

King Chen Liu was taken aback for a long time before he realized that he nodded and chatted with him for a while. Liu Mastiff knew in his heart that his uncle came because of his grandmother, but he didn't know why it took so long for his uncle to arrive at Luo Yang, when talking about his grandmother, King Chen Liu couldn't help weeping in a low voice. Liu Mastiff lowered his head and knelt beside him, also sad.

The little prince was in Father's arms, and he didn't know why they were crying, he muttered, it seemed that he was about to cry.

"Mastiff."

"Father?"

"Take your brother out to play first"

"Please!"

As soon as Liu Mastiff walked to the side of the emperor, little Liu Di rushed out, hugged Liu Mastiff's leg, looked at Liu Mastiff, smiled, Liu Mastiff lowered his body, and picked him up. Little guy, Liu Mastiff left Houde Hall, walked outside the hall, found a place, sat down, and placed Liu Di in front of him. Liu Di had just learned to walk, waving his little hands, shaking in front of Liu Di. The mastiff walked up and down in front of it.

He walked up to Liu Mastiff, waved his hands, and shouted something in his mouth. Liu Mastiff stretched out his hand, grabbed his two fleshy hands, teased him, and then pinched his round face. When he was happy, he stretched out his hand to hit Liu Mastiff's hand, which made Liu Mastiff laugh out loud.

The emperor and King Chen Liu walked out of Houde Hall. King Chen Liu's eyes were red, and he stood beside the emperor, looking thinner and thinner. The emperor sighed helplessly. He knew that this younger brother's health was very bad. He was weak and sick, and after learning that the Empress Dowager Song had passed away, he became even more seriously ill, and then he got better. All these made the emperor feel very distressed.

It's a pity that Erlang won't be able to see his mother for the last time.

Thinking of this, he looked at King Chen Liu softly, and the emperor said: "Don't go back in a hurry, I will send you a few more orders from the imperial doctor, you should adjust your body first, and then return to Chen Liu. stay"

"Thank you brother."

While the two were talking, they saw four or five court ladies appearing in the distance, surrounded by one person, and came over.

It was Cao Guiren who came.

Walking in front of the Son of Heaven, Cao Guiren hurriedly paid respects to King Chen Liu, and King Chen Liu returned the salute. Then Cao Guiren smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Di'er will delay the matter, so I came here to pick him up."

"Erlang?" The Son of Heaven was a little puzzled, and looked around. Didn't he be taken out by Dalang?
He quickly called the yellow gate in the distance, and asked, "Where are Da Lang and Er Lang?"

"I was still here not long ago, and later, I don't know"

Hearing such an answer, Cao Guiren's face turned pale immediately, his whole body trembled, and asked quickly: "Your Majesty, where are they? This...", the emperor was immediately annoyed, and scolded: "What's the rush?! Can they still Is it impossible to get lost in the palace?! Send someone to look for it!"

"Please!"

The Yellow Gates got busy and searched everywhere. After searching for a long time, they couldn't find it.

"Your Majesty...won't Your Majesty ask the guards to look for it too?" Cao Guiren asked, almost crying out of anxiety.

The emperor gave her a cold look, and she didn't dare to speak any more. The emperor looked at King Chen Liu and said, "You go to the post station to rest first, and I will look for you tomorrow."

"Okay, brother, they must have gone to play, don't worry."

"kindness."

After seeing off King Chenliu, the emperor sat in the Hall of Houde, reading with a book, very calm, without any panic, when Cao Guiren sat beside him, he began to sob softly, which made the emperor even more is upset.

The two were sitting, and the yellow gate hadn't come back yet, but Liu Mastiff was holding the little guy's hand, and walked in from the door. The little guy was holding his brother's hand, and staggered into the hall, watching the emperor and the emperor. Cao Guiren grinned, he was holding the fruit in one hand, his whole face was dirty from eating, Cao Guiren stepped forward exclaiming, and snatched Liu Di from Liu Mastiff's hand .

Holding Liu Di in his arms, he began to cry.

Liu Mastiff looked at her blankly, then at the emperor, at a loss.

"where did you go?!"

"Erlang said he was hungry, so I took him to pick some fruit to eat."

Cao Guiren held Liu Di in his arms and looked him up and down. Seeing that he was safe and sound, he was relieved. Seeing that he was still eating the fruit in his hand, Cao Guiren angrily snatched the fruit from his hand and slapped him hard. Throwing the fruit on the ground, crying and shouting: "My son, if you fall and hurt, what can I do?" Seeing the fruit falling on the ground, the little guy also cried loudly.

The emperor slapped the copy suddenly, Cao Guiren immediately stopped talking.

He glared at Liu Mastiff, and said, "Do you know how worried I am? Why didn't I tell you, and went so far away?!"

Liu Mastiff stared blankly at the angry father, then turned his head and looked at Cao Guiren. He was silent for a long time, then he cupped his hands, faced his father, and said still a little dullly: "I know my mistake."

"As the eldest son of the emperor, at such an age, why are you still messing around like this? Didn't you know that King Chen Liu was also in the palace? You are so old, and you still don't let the elders feel at ease! Is it enough just to know your mistakes?" Cao Guiren was angry. reprimanded, and glanced at the emperor at the side.

The emperor frowned, waved his hand, and said:

"Go and kneel outside the hall! Kneel for half an hour, and have a long memory."

"Your Majesty!" Just as Cao Guiren was about to speak, the emperor looked at her suddenly and shouted, "Shut up! Take Dier back!!!" Cao Guiren was taken aback, glanced at Liu Mastiff, and hugged her. Liu Di walked out of Houde Hall.

The Son of Heaven looked at Liu Mastiff and said, "Before doing anything, you have to think a lot."

Liu Mastiff didn't say anything, his heart suddenly felt a little cold, the punishment is not heavy, kneeling down, it's nothing, in Yuan Mansion, Liu Mastiff even knelt down for two or three hours, it's nothing, However, Liu Mastiff has never been wronged like this before. Mr. Cao took Liu Di so brutally just now, which made Liu Mastiff feel extremely uncomfortable, and what made him feel even more uncomfortable was his father.

Father didn't say a word for himself, is it a fault if he didn't report?
Even the court ladies can take Erlang to play at will, but I need to report?
Liu Mastiff grinned, gave a wry smile, turned around, walked out of the Hall of Houde in desperation, came to the door outside the hall, faced the main hall, and knelt down fiercely, the severe pain in his knee did not move him.

He sat quietly on his knees, his face surprisingly calm, without grievance, without anger, he looked a little numb, with a hint of sadness in his eyes, the surrounding Huangmen couldn't bear it, and wanted to tell the queen, but he was afraid The emperor blamed it, so he dared not act.

Gradually, when the wind picked up, the thin Liu Mastiff knelt down on the ground, his whole body shrunk into a ball, which made him look even thinner. He lowered his head, trying hard to keep the tears from falling down .

In front of the Houde Hall, Han Men looked at him, gritted his teeth, and entered the Houde Hall.

"The country. The eldest son of the emperor is young... It's windy outside again."

The emperor was stunned, thought for a moment, and said: "After the meeting, let him get up and let him go back to the Yuan Mansion." Hanmen nodded and walked out of Houde Hall. , without tempering, he can't get rid of that trace of cowardice.

Han Men trotted, walked to Liu Mastiff's side, stretched out his hand, and wanted to help him up.

Liu Mastiff raised his head and looked at Hanmen in a daze.

Han Men said: "Your Highness, get up quickly. The wind is blowing."

When walking out of the palace, light rain gradually fell from the sky.

The street was empty, Liu Mastiff was walking on the road, Su Wei followed behind him.

The rain fell on the ground, splashing and splashing.

The guards knew that Liu Mastiff was in a bad mood, and each of them lowered their heads, not knowing what to say. They were all elites in the army. There was a solution, but with a helpless sigh, Liu Mastiff walked slowly, and came to a corner, stretched out his right hand, and supported the wall.

He lowered his head, but tears kept falling. In this hazy rain scene, he was in pain silently. He opened his mouth wide, but did not make a sound. Even the tears were mixed with the rain and disappeared. .

In his heart, it was so lonely and so sad.

A big hand reached out and grabbed his shoulder.

Liu Mastiff raised his head, with tears on his face.

Standing in front of him was Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu looked at him, stretched out his hand, and hugged him into his arms.

"Master, I miss my grandmother so much, I miss my grandma so much." Then Liu Mastiff burst into tears, buried his head in Yuan Shu's arms, and cried bitterly, Yuan Shu patted his back , frowned, and said nothing.

After returning to the mansion with Liu Mastiff, some soldiers came in and carried Liu Mastiff to the couch.

Liu Mastiff's face was pale, with a tinge of blush, and he closed his eyes, murmuring something.

When Yuan Shu stretched out his hand to touch his forehead, he noticed that it was scorching hot. Yuan Shu immediately called a soldier in the mansion. This soldier was skilled in medicine. He had been treating soldiers in the army before. He checked Liu Mastiff's condition and then In a hurry, he began to work and perform medical treatment.

Yuan Shu could clearly see that both of Liu Mastiff's knees were worn out, showing redness and swelling, and even the blood on the left knee was congealed into one lump, turning black. Seeing this, Yuan Shu's face suddenly became gloomy. After coming down, he turned his head and looked at Su Wei.

"What's going on here?"

The rain is still falling, Luo Yang's night.

The streets were empty.

A group of people gradually appeared on the street. They covered their faces and wore strong clothes, walked through the rain curtain, and came to the door of a mansion.

The leader looked at the mansion in front of him, then looked around, and waved his hand. The people behind rushed over, waved their swords, slashed at the gate, kicked it again, and broke open. Door!

Everyone rushed in, screaming and killing, the servants in the mansion had already woken up, holding lights, and rushed out of the house, there was a lot of noise outside, they roared and made the loudest noise to scare the thieves who came, but they really I don't understand, how could thieves dare to rush here to make trouble? ? ? !

The servants took up weapons one after another and fought with the thieves head-on. The momentum was huge, and the neighbors around were also awakened. They knew that the neighbors would come to rescue them soon, and the soldiers in Luoyang would also come. They just need to hold back the thieves, and if they hold them back, they can all be killed in the courtyard! !
Thinking so, however, things did not develop as they thought. These thieves did not know where they came from. Even so, they were still extremely brave, and chopped down the servants in the mansion one by one. The servants were not their opponents at all. After the servants fell to the ground, they rushed to the inner courtyard.

Cao Ding, the captain of Sili School, was disheveled and held a sharp sword, standing at the door, looking at the crowd, trembling all over, he roared angrily: "I am the father of Concubine Cao in the harem, a relative of heaven and country, how are you waiting?" Dare to come and make trouble!!!"

"Shh!"

The leader didn't say a word, just jumped a step, went to Cao Ding's side, swung his sword out, the sword light flashed, and directly lifted the sword in Cao Ding's hand, Cao Ding was shocked, and the leader kicked him to the ground On the ground, Cao Ding held his abdomen in pain, looked at him, and said quickly: "I don't know what kind of misunderstanding I have with you, but I hope you will forgive me and spare my life. I will not pursue it, I will not pursue it!"

"Hear the order!" The leader roared angrily.

"exist!"

"Break the legs of everyone in this mansion."

The leader said coldly.
